A few minutes later, Rong Jian's shoulders sank, and a faint fragrance drifted to his nose.
Shi Xirou hugged Rong Jian's right hand, rubbed it unconsciously, and muttered, "I'm so sleepy."
Shen Ci turned around when he heard the noise and saw that his brother was so close to a woman for the first time, and he didn't dare to move. He was so happy that he took out his phone to take a picture to tell the world.
"Don't take pictures." Rong Jian moved his lips.
"No."
"I'll give you a set of collectible skins."
"Three sets."
"make a deal."
After dealing with Shen Ci, Rong Jian lowered his head to glance at the part of his body that had quietly awakened, and silently pulled up the hem of his suit to cover it. She had only hugged his arm, and he had become stone-faced and spineless.
"Chen Ci, turn down the music."
Shen Ci tutted his words and was about to turn down the volume when his senior brother started making trouble again and told him not to turn it off. He turned around speechlessly and asked, "Brother, what are you trying to do?"
Rong Jian didn't reply. He turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window. He felt that the sound of traffic outside was far less loud than the sound of his heartbeat.
The plops of the feet were louder and louder, making his thoughts drift back to the world where they first met.
If time could freeze at this moment... No, she would not be happy.
An hour later.
Shen Ci looked in the rearview mirror and asked softly, "Should we wake her up? She's sleeping so soundly."
Rong Jian turned her head and only saw the black head, her face was blocked by her long hair.
"Forget it, I called her and asked her to come down to pick someone up. Senior brother, give me your phone number, but she blocked my number." When he said the second half of the sentence, Shen Ci's tone was filled with resentment that could not be resolved.
Rong Jian didn't dare to move. His cell phone was in his right trouser pocket, pressed tightly against her through the thin fabric.
"You can borrow it from the driver."
Jiang Xiangyu and Linglang appeared in front of the car within five minutes.
"Xixi, get up."
No movement.
Jiang Xiangyu brushed aside Shi Xirou's hair and saw that her cheeks were flushed and her breathing was even as she slept. "Did she drink? She sleeps very deeply after drinking."
"I don't know, we weren't sitting together. If you can't wake her up, how are you going to take her back? How about letting my senior brother carry her up?" Shen Ci thought he had come up with a good idea, so that he could stay with his girlfriend for a few more minutes.
Linglang said: "Don't bother, I can carry her."
After saying that, she pulled Shi Xirou's hands away from Rong Jian, put one arm around Shi Xirou's shoulders, hooked the other hand around her legs, and steadily picked her up like a princess.
Jiang Xiangyu took the things and said to Rong Jian, "I'm sorry, Mr. Rong, she didn't mean it. Thank you for sending her back. We're going back now."
Chen Ci looked at the receding figure, feeling depressed. "I'm so sad! Why did you ignore me and didn't even say goodbye? Please judge for yourself. Is it my fault that Chu Xinyue pesters me even though I'm handsome..."
Rong Jian ignored him and rubbed his numb hands. He couldn't forget the feeling of those two soft lumps pressing against his arms.
That night, there were two more insomniac men in Songcheng.
One is because of a woman, and the other is also because of a woman.

Shi Xirou slept until dawn. When she came out after washing up, Jiang Xiangyu was packing her luggage to join the crew, and the twins were having breakfast.
"Good morning, friends."
Jiang Xiangyu tutted a few times, and when Shi Xirou looked at her blankly, she teased, "Someone told me to be careful of Rong Jian, saying he was a bad guy. But who knows who, he slept so soundly last night, holding his hand and resting his head on his shoulder! He almost let him carry him home."
“Bang!”
The porcelain bowl in Shi Xirou's hand fell to the ground and broke.
"Ouch!" Li Jing exclaimed, pulling the distraught Shi Xirou away, "I'm fine, fine, fine."
Jiang Xiangyu thought Aunt Li's actions were funnier than the petrified Shi Xirou. "Auntie, why are you bowing to the air?"
Linglang: "I think I know. There's a saying in my hometown that if a bowl is accidentally broken or chopsticks are dropped on the ground before leaving for a long journey, it means something unlucky is about to happen."
"Yeah, yeah, it's pretty much the same back home," Li Jing said, bending down to pick up the broken pieces. "Don't worry, I already told you everything is fine, and the bad luck has gone away."
Shi Xirou came back to her senses: "Even if it's me who's going to be unlucky, ah, how could I do such an unreasonable thing to a stranger, ah, someone tell me that's not true! Ah, I'm going to collapse!"
After saying that, Shi Xirou grabbed her hair, slapped her head, and ran into the bedroom like a madman, shutting herself in.
Jiang Xiangyu chuckled: "Haha, this is the first time I see her so upset."
Li Jing and the twins followed suit.
Shi Xirou fell on the bed, pounding the pillow like a mad monkey, her speech degenerated to the point where she could only howl.
Just then, a text message came.
[Mr. Shi, this is Rong Jian. I left your earrings in the car. I'd like to return them to you at noon. Is that convenient?]
Shi Xirou sat up in shock, and saw a lonely ear clip lying on the dressing table.
[No need to return it. It's just an earring. Please help me throw it away. I'm sorry about what happened last night, Mr. Rong.]
Suddenly, a long and mournful cry rang out from the bedroom. "Ah—Farewell, my Dior ear clips, woo~"
The people outside the house looked at each other in silence.

#You Min's new album exudes the sweetness of love#
#Welcome the new generation singer Chu Xinyue to join OO Music#
#Shocked, the top girl group member bravely enters the love song track#
#This Is Love is so good that it sounds like five babies were born in one day#
"Five babies born in one day, what kind of adjective is that?"
Shi Xirou clicked on the hot search. You Min’s digital album was released on OO Music today. There were only six new songs. Except for the piano piece "Crossroads of Love", she seemed to have heard the rest of the songs.
You Min and Chu Xinyue's "You Are the Right Person", she has heard the version sung by Qi Wei;
You Min and Chu Xinyue's "Only Have Feelings for You". She has heard the versions sung by Fahrenheit and a member of SHE;
You Min and Chu Xinyue's "A Little Sweet", she had heard the version sung by Wang Sulong and a pair of twins;
You Min and Chu Xinyue's "Liang Shanbo and Juliet". Oh, the male singer was Gary Cao who appeared on "Where Are We Going, Dad?". I remember the female singer had a very sweet voice, but I can't remember her name.
You Min's "The One I Love Is You" seems to be sung by several boys?
"Da, da da da, da li da da... Let the stars solve the mysteries in the fairy tales. Oh my god, I have fallen in love with her..." Hey, she also remembers this.
After two years of studying together, Shi Xirou learned for the first time about Liu Yue's interest in music. It turned out that she liked duetting love songs.
The genuine copy of this mini album costs ¥30.00, but Shi Xirou couldn't bear to buy it. She listened to some clips online and started to work on the new store.
She could easily buy seafood from Brewster's store with the experience points she earned from signing in, so she might as well open a seafood store and exchange the experience points for money to increase her income.
From now on, employees who want to eat seafood can buy it in the store at a 25% discount.
