Chapter 95 I Have Nowhere Else to Go
Qin Yanxiu was too lazy to care about it anymore and left quickly. Cen Wan had no time to care about him.
Because Shen Yixiao had really drunk a lot, he reeked of alcohol, his skin was hot, and his brows were tightly furrowed.
Cen Wan wiped his face and fed him some water. Fearing that he was feeling unwell, she sat by the bed and watched over him.
She reached out and stroked his brow, trying to smooth out the wrinkles on his forehead. Feeling the burning warmth under her fingertips, her eyes were filled with guilt.
"sorry……"
If it weren't for her, if she hadn't appeared, if they hadn't reunited, would he not have felt so bad?
Just as she was about to withdraw her hand, her wrist was tightly grasped by a strong hand, with such force that her wrist bones ached.
Shen Yixiao slowly opened his eyes, his expression was cold, his eyes were scarlet, and his dark pupils were now disorganized.
He stared at Cen Wan for a long time but didn't say a word.
Cen Wan pursed her lips and spoke softly, "Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? Are you feeling nauseous?"
Shen Yixiao's eyelids were half drooped, with a gorgeous red color showing at the corners of his eyes. His eyes were slightly drunk and his gaze was blurred.
Cen Wan used her other hand to take the water from the side and passed it to his mouth: "Would you like some more water?"
Perhaps because he heard a familiar voice, Shen Yixiao loosened some of the strength in his hands.
He didn't say anything, but slowly closed his eyes.
Cen Wan withdrew her hand, looked at the red mark on her wrist, and put the cup back on the bedside as if nothing had happened.
Shen Yixiao fell asleep, his breathing steady and long. However, his sleep was not very peaceful. Cen Wan stayed by his side until the middle of the night, making sure he was alright before returning to his room.
What surprised Cen Wan was that Shen Yixiao didn't say a word the whole time, nor did he become difficult.
She suddenly understood.
It turns out that when Shen Yixiao really drinks, he won't pester her and act like a spoiled brat.
…
In the morning, Cen Wan cooked porridge, made a cup of honey water, and prepared some yogurt and fruit, all to help with hangovers.
Shen Yixiao woke up from a hangover, looked at the familiar environment, hurriedly got up and opened the door.
Hearing the noise, Cen Wan looked up and said, "Are you awake? Does your head still hurt? Eat something later."
Shen Yixiao was stunned for a moment, and when he spoke, his voice was still a little hoarse: "You..."
Cen Wan lowered her head to cut some fruit: "Master Qin brought you back last night."
No one mentioned the unpleasant things again.
After breakfast, Shen Yixiao did not go to the company, but worked directly at the table in the living room, and asked Chen Yu to deliver relevant information and documents.
This went on for several days.
As if he was specifically guarding her, Shen Yixiao never left the house once.
The studio has been relatively quiet recently and it's almost holiday time, so Cen Wan doesn't have to go there.
But she should go to a nursing home.
After breakfast that day, Cen Wan said to Shen Yixiao, "I need to go out."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Yixiao looked at her with an obscure look, unable to hide his hostility.
Cen Wan explained, "Since I've already promised you to stay for a full month, I won't leave without permission."
"I'm leaving all my belongings and computer behind. I'm only taking my cell phone, and I'll be back before dinner."
These days, whenever she asked to go out, Shen Yixiao would follow her closely, as if he was really afraid that she would run away.
Cen Wan pursed her lips and said, "There's no need for me to lie to you. Otherwise, I'll leave my phone with you."
Shen Yixiao narrowed his dark eyes and stared at her for a long time. Her words did not seem false.
Even if she runs away, he can catch her back.
But, come back before dinner?
"Be back before lunch."
Cen Wan looked at the time. It was already nine o'clock. It would take two hours to go back and forth. It was totally too late.
She tried to negotiate with him: "It's too late before lunch, I must be back before five o'clock in the afternoon."
She knew that Shen Yixiao was restricting her movements, but she told herself that for a few days, she could indulge him and make him happy.
Shen Yixiao's temperament is sometimes like a child and needs to be coaxed.
She didn't want to have an unhappy day every day.
Shen Yixiao pursed his lips and said nothing.
Cen Wan said softly, "I really have something important to do. I have to go out today. I won't go back on my promise to you."
"You don't have to look at me like this every day. I haven't found a house yet, and Yuanyuan hasn't come back yet. I have nowhere else to go."
Nowhere else to go?
Shen Yixiao keenly caught these words, and his eyes moved slightly.
Cen Wan thought he didn't believe her, so she explained to him for a long and earnest moment.
Shen Yixiao also knew that he couldn't always guard her and detain her. The obstruction these days was more like an uneasy temptation.
He finally relented: "But you have to reply to my message every hour."
Cen Wan: "Okay."
…
Cen Wan first went to the mall and bought new clothes and some daily necessities for her grandmother, and then took a taxi to the nursing home.
She went there less frequently during this period, but would ask about her grandmother's condition on WeChat every one or two days.
She also wants to accompany her grandmother every day, but sometimes she doesn't dare.
Because whenever she sees her grandmother, she will think of the past, and it takes her a long time to calm down every time she goes back to see her.
My grandmother has companions and friends in the nursing home, and she has forgotten everything and lives a carefree life like an old child. But seeing her inevitably reminds me of my mother, and when she is stimulated, she easily becomes ill.
So she deliberately controlled the frequency of their meetings.
Cen Wan entered the nursing home carrying large and small bags of things. When she reached the door of her grandmother's room, she took a deep breath and adjusted herself before going in.
"grandmother."
The old man's eyes lit up when he saw her: "Jiaxian, you're finally back from vacation! I've been waiting for you for a long time."
She took Cen Wan's hand and walked aside: "Look, these are the dumplings I made. They're stuffed with shrimp, which is your favorite. They're perfect for Chinese New Year."
The nurse explained, "A few days ago, the hospital organized everyone to make dumplings. Auntie insisted on leaving a few for her daughter."
Grandma picked up one and fed it to Cen Wan: "Try it, how does it taste?"
Cen Wan didn't hesitate and took a bite. She smiled and said, "It's still as delicious as before."
The nurse didn't have time to stop him: "It's been several days old and it's still raw. Why did you eat it, Miss Cen?"
Cen Wan looked at the smile on her grandmother's face and said softly, "It's okay."
