"Um."
"Can't read on?"
"No." Xue Sui paused, his inner struggle lasting only a few seconds. When he spoke again, his tone was very calm, "They are old, and I don't want them to suffer any more."
Even though Xue Sui's words were very obscure, Tang Qiqi could hear it, "Uncle and aunt... are unemployed?"
"Um."
"Why so sudden?" Tang Qiqi frowned and looked up at the building.
Most families in this small county have only one child, and if anything happens to the parents, all the pressure falls on the child.
Xue Sui shook his head. "That company has been around for a long time. I don't know why they would suddenly lay off old employees."
Tang Qiqi's heart skipped a beat, and suppressing her rising anxiety, she asked, "Which company?"
Xue Sui turned his head in surprise and looked at Tang Qiqi who suddenly put the wrong focus, but did not ask anything and just said the name of the company.
After saying goodbye to Xue Sui, Tang Qiqi stood alone on the roadside, staring at the website page on his mobile phone screen in a daze.
There are also job advertisements on it...
Tang Qiqi returned home in a turmoil and found the house quiet.
Qi Yan is not at home.
He seems to be going out a lot recently. Where has he been?
Tang Qiqi, who was in a tense state, didn't think too much and hid in the bathroom and soaked himself in the bathtub.
My entire face was almost buried in it, as if only the feeling of suffocation could stop me from thinking about those possibilities.
Zhu Tongyu's store is still doing well, which proves that she is too sensitive and thinks too much.
Xue Sui's parents...maybe it happened that the company wanted to replace old employees with new ones.
As soon as a little speculation came up, Tang Qiqi would subconsciously find an excuse to fill his uneasiness.
I was struggling over and over again in my heart.
A feeling of fatigue gradually came over me.
Qi Yan returned home and found that the door was not locked.
The house was quiet, and everything was as it was before he left, untouched.
Tang Qiqi's shoes were not found at the door.
"Seventh brother?" Qi Yan rushed into the house in two steps.
The living room was deserted without a single light, and the familiar darkness lingered around again. The young man stood there in a daze, and the chill emanating from his body swallowed up even the air.
The door was blown shut by the wind, blocking out the last ray of light.
Only a lonely figure remained, blending into the darkness.
Suddenly, a voice came from not far away.
Even though it wasn't clear, it brought the boy back to his senses.
Confused and surprised, and finally completely overwhelmed by excitement, the boy turned around and rushed to the toilet.
'Pah'
The light was turned on, and the bathroom floor was littered with clothes and shoes. The person in the bathtub heard the sound and opened his eyes in a daze.
Qi Yan didn't know how long he kept turning on the light. When he spoke, his voice had become a little hoarse, "Qiqi."
"Ah?" Tang Qiqi squinted her eyes, which were dazzled by the bright lights. "Why..."
Before he could finish his words, they were both stunned when their eyes met.
The next second, both eyes turned towards the body soaking in the water...
When Tang Qiqi realized where he was and what posture he was in, his sleepiness disappeared in an instant.
He bent down and reached out to grab the towel hanging behind him.
But after staying in the water for too long, my hands and feet were already numb. Before I even touched the towel, my legs suddenly went limp and I fell back into the bathtub with a plop.
Cold water poured into my nasal cavity, and my breathing stopped for a moment.
Before Tang Qiqi could struggle, a hand suddenly reached into the water and hugged her waist.
When the feeling of suffocation disappeared, my feet were already suspended in the air.
The warmth of the palm on my waist penetrated my skin and spread to my entire body, warming my whole body that had been soaked for a long time and turned cold.
This choke made Tang Qiqi dazed for a moment. When he looked up, he bumped into someone with his eyes closed. He quickly brought his soul back.
My teeth were chattering from the cold, but the warmth from the hand on my waist made the two temperatures in my body fight against each other.
Tang Qiqi buried her face in her chest out of shame, her whole body already starting to heat up, "F... towel!"
Qi Yan lost his usual calmness and composure in the face of the huge shock of stepping into hell and then being pulled back to heaven.
The embarrassing voice finally brought him back to his senses, but when he picked up the towel and wrapped it around himself, his breathing became disordered again.
