"What are you doing here?" Chi Xingyao asked knowingly, pretending to close the door.
Before the door was closed, his bony fingers effortlessly grasped the edge of the door and pushed it back.
Han Xu came in, raised one eyebrow, and the earring hanging on his ear bone flashed brightly and arrogantly: "Catch the thief."
With a long stride, Han Xu easily passed Chi Xingyao and raised his hand to hook his finger at the young man holding Xiao Hei: "Let's go."
Lin Zhiyi nodded, handed the cat to Chi Xingyao, said goodbye to the two of them, and left with Han Xu.
"Tsk tsk tsk." Chi Xingyao touched her chin, "They started dating behind our backs. They weren't this close the last time we met."
Ana Shen unexpectedly took up her casual gossip: “Matters of the heart are unpredictable.”
Chi Xingyao: ???
Her ears are not broken, right? She can actually hear Shen Yinan picking up her gossip!
He even said something like a wise saying!
"Are you and Xue Du having a conflict?" Chi Xingyao's eyebrows knitted. "Yeah, you've been out for so long, and you haven't replied to his messages much. Normally, you reply every few minutes!"
“…”
Is he usually this clingy?
Actually, no, Xue Du did send a message, but Shen Yinan wanted to teach Xue Du a lesson, so he didn't reply much.
They had come here to chat, but now that it was just the two of them, Shen Yinan briefly explained what had happened between him and Xue Du.
After hearing this, Chi Xingyao was still puzzled. "That's not right. What did you mean when you said an old man answered the phone? And can Xue Du change his voice?"
“No.” Shen Yinan brewed for a moment, “That’s his grandfather.”
When doing it last night, Xue Du carefully explained the whole process.
When he was young, Xue Du suddenly became rebellious for a while. Grandpa Xue was not one to indulge him and felt that he had had too much of a good life. He happened to hear that the Gu family was going to the countryside to do charity work, so he sent his grandson with them as well.
That day, he was bored and staring blankly at the event site. Suddenly he heard crying and went to check it out.
The person crying was Ana Shen. Because the Zhao family only wanted Ana Shen to work, they never declared any charity activities.
Shen Yinan hid beside and watched, his eyes couldn’t help but redden, sobbing softly.
Xue Du chatted with him for a few sentences and included this person in the list. Later, when he heard that he needed to write a letter or something, the eldest young master thought it was troublesome and directly wrote the old man's address.
In the following years, Xue Du only knew this person, but Shen Yinan’s emails and messages were all given to the old man.
It was not until the old man passed away that he discovered the letters while sorting out his belongings.
So, Xue Du had liked him since college.
After combing through it from the beginning, Shen Yinan realized that they had missed each other many times.
Fortunately, the result was not bad.
Chi Xingyao sighed for a long time and asked, "What about you, Gu Yan?"
"He couldn't produce any proof that he had funded me. I rejected his investment last night and blocked him."
Ana Shen said in a light tone.
Sometimes, Shen Yinan would wonder if it was because he was too isolated and helpless when he first arrived at the Shen family, and he wanted to urgently find a pillar, a reason to keep himself alive. That was why when he found out that Gu Yan had dyed his hair white before, he almost didn't check carefully and concluded that he was his benefactor, wanting to prove that his existence was valuable and meaningful without expecting anything in return.
The thoughts I had at that time seem so pitiful and naive now.
But if you insist, it was because Mr. Gu organized the event that Xue Du participated in it, and that’s why what happened later happened.
Consider it as a thank you to Mr. Gu for his help over the years.
…
After chatting for a long time, Chi Xingyao felt a little hungry, so she ordered a delivery service from a restaurant and then lay on the sofa to play with the cat.
Talking about the temper tantrum with Xue Du, Shen Yinan felt a little guilty: "Isn't this a bit too much?"
"It's not too much. Hiding such a big thing from you makes people angry even if they are kind-hearted!" Chi Xingyao raised Xiao Hei's paw and waved it.
Ana Shen pursed his lips.
In fact, he could fully understand why Xue Du was unwilling to tell him.
Although in the past, he would really do something like that to repay a favor, but now it is different from before...
I was not only angry at Xue Du, but also a little angry at myself.
But he had to be tougher and didn't want Xue Du to worry about him all the time, even if it was for his own good.
Under Chi Xingyao's instigation, Shen Yinan typed and sent a message to Xue Du -
【I won’t be staying at home tonight.】
…
After dinner, Shen Yinan did not stay at Chi Xingyao's place, but went to an apartment near the company.
Haven't been here for a while.
This place is for convenience, so it is not big.
But when he opened the door and looked at the dark room, Shen Yinan suddenly felt some low emotions.
He felt a little uneasy at the thought of sleeping alone tonight.
But the words have been spoken, and I can't go back on them.
You still have to save some face.
Shen Yinan turned on the light and went into the house to change his shoes.
Just as he was about to take the shoes from the shoe cabinet, Shen Yinan suddenly stopped.
Inside the shoe cabinet, there was only a pair of light pink bunny slippers. There should have been a pair of the same fox slippers next to it, but now it was empty.
Looking again, there was a pair of black leather shoes in the shoe cabinet.
Ana Shen’s heart skipped a beat.
He pursed his lips, slowly changed into his slippers, went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water, and drank it in small sips.
He passed by the bedroom door but had no intention of going in. Instead, he turned around and sat back on the sofa in the living room, turned on the TV, and chose a popular TV series to watch.
