After hanging up the phone, Bi Qiaoan took the initiative to wipe the dining table clean with a rag. After she finished cleaning up, Shen Yanming also came out of the kitchen.
Are you alright?
"It was Chen Jin who asked me for something, so I told her to go find Xiao Fei."
Upon hearing the name "Xiao Fei," Shen Yanming's heart skipped a beat, but he remained outwardly calm. "What do you mean by that?"
"Xiao Fei was going to confess his feelings to Chen Jin today, but Chen Jin went on a date with someone else. Then Xiao Fei asked me to help deliver flowers and gifts to Chen Jin, but I didn't agree. Later, you called me home."
After saying that, Bi Qiaoan smiled and said, "You came back at just the right time, otherwise I wouldn't know how to refuse Xiao Fei!"
Shen Yanming then realized that the confession scene was someone else's confession scene!
But then another problem arises: even if Bi Qiaoan is reborn, the scene of the confession remains the same, so why does Xiao Fei suddenly stop confessing to Bi Qiaoan?
But this is good too, it saves me from having to find a way to get rid of that eyesore Xiao Fei.
"Brother Yanming, it's getting late, I'm going home now." Bi Qiaoan glanced at the clock on the wall, it was 10:30, and then got up to say goodbye to Shen Yanming.
“Go back where? Isn’t this your home?” Shen Yanming found Bi Qiaoan’s words amusing.
"This is your house, my house is next door!"
"It's just the distance of a wall, I'll have it torn down tomorrow!"
“Then let’s talk about it after you’ve taken it down,” Bi Qiaoan replied with a smile.
After saying that, she changed out of her slippers, opened the door, and closed it.
Shen Yanming got up, took the sheets and duvet covers out of the washing machine, tidied them up, and hung them on the clothes rack on the balcony.
Shen Yanming sat on the sofa, looking at the living room that had returned to silence. Loneliness washed over him once again. This feeling was so awful.
Shen Yanming forced a bitter smile, got up, opened the door, and was determined to keep Bi Qiaoan by his side today, even if it meant losing all his shame.
Bi Qiaoan stood at the door of 1601, and when she heard the door next door open, she turned around and asked, "Why did you come out?"
"Why didn't you go back?" both voices rang out at the same time.
Seeing the forced smile on Bi Qiaoan's face, Shen Yanming felt a pang of pain in his heart. "I'm not used to sleeping alone. Will you stay with me?"
Before Bi Qiaoan could refuse, he took her hand, led her into the house, and pushed her into the guest room. "Go change into your pajamas, I've already showered."
Bi Qiaoan nodded and closed the door.
She thought she was ready, but when she stood at the door of 1601, she realized how resistant she was to entering the place where they lived, even though in this life, 1601 had nothing to do with those two people.
Bi Qiaoan felt a little frustrated, realizing she wasn't as strong as she thought. She drew the curtains, changed into her gray heart-patterned pajamas, opened the door, and went outside. She saw Shen Yanming sitting on the sofa, watching the evening news on TV.
Shen Yanming was completely oblivious to what the news was saying. He was lost in thought, wondering what had happened in his past life that had caused Bi Qiaoan such great psychological trauma.
It wasn't until he felt the sofa next to him sink that Shen Yanming came back to his senses. "Hmm, it looks nice. You can tell at a glance that we're family."
Bi Qiaoan smiled and shook her head, "Aren't you tired? Why are you still watching TV?"
"I'm used to watching the news every day, so I know quite a lot." After saying that, he turned to look at the screen.
According to the Qingou International News Agency, on March 7 local time, the Sberlang volcano on Lessangagan Island erupted again, and the lava flow caused a wildfire. Firefighters rushed to the safe area around the volcano to extinguish the fire.
This is the second eruption of Mount Speran since it went dormant for 3,000 years. Last June, Mount Speran erupted, killing 42 mountaineers.
Bi Qiaoan looked at the international news and felt a deep sense of dread. In her previous life, Bi Qiaoan had also seen news about various natural disasters, but at that time she felt they were far removed from her own life. It wasn't until she experienced this life that she realized that the world had been giving warnings all along, but no one had noticed.
“Brother Yanming, I’ve seen a lot of news like this lately. It seems like there have been a lot of natural disasters in the last two years. I have a bad feeling about this.” Bi Qiaoan looked at Shen Yanming, her tone was relatively calm, but there was a hint of panic in her eyes.
"It's okay, even if the sky falls, Brother Yanming will hold it up for you..." Shen Yanming patted Bi Qiaoan on the shoulder and said.
Bi Qiaoan and Shen Yanming both knew that such words were too weak; when that day came, no one could escape it.
It was late at night. Shen Yanming went back to the master bedroom to sleep, while Bi Qiaoan went back to the guest room. Hehe, they were still only a wall away from each other.
Bi Qiaoan was tired and soon fell asleep.
Meanwhile, Chen Jin, back in her dormitory, was suffering from insomnia.
She was torn between accepting Xiao Fei's confession.
In fact, Chen Jin had feelings for Xiao Fei, after all, Xiao Fei was considered very outstanding among his peers. However, Chen Jin had already learned from Xiao Fei's classmates that Xiao Fei's family was of average means, with no burdens but also no help whatsoever.
Chen Jin wanted to find someone from a well-off family, like the man she went on a date with today, whose family owned a company and who owned two houses. But after testing him, Chen Jin knew that he would never marry her.
This isn't the first boy to say he wouldn't marry her; the better the conditions, the less likely he is to.
Giving gifts while dating is fine, but not for marriage! People want to marry someone of equal social standing, someone who can be helpful to them or their family.
Chen Jin started school relatively late and is already 24 years old this year. She is afraid that if she waits any longer, she won't even be able to find someone like Xiao Fei.
Fine, I'll agree to it since I like the gift Xiao Fei gave me. If it doesn't work out, I can always find something better and get a replacement.
The next day, Bi Qiaoan was woken up by Shen Yanming. "Qiaoan, get up. Have breakfast before you go back to sleep."
