Chapter 94 Worth it
Han Siti breathed shallowly and covered herself with the quilt.
She heard the sound of clinking glasses from the other side, clear and bright, one after another.
Han Siti said, "Are you drinking?"
"Watch them drink." Jin Huainian listened to her voice, his brows relaxed, and his cold aura faded a lot.
Han Siti hummed: "Then you play, I'm hanging up."
Jin Huaian narrowed his eyes slightly, his hand resting on the armrest beside him, and he said quietly, "Let's talk for a while."
"What to talk about?" Han Siti felt sleepy as soon as she lay down, and her eyelids were drooping.
"It's all right, as long as I can hear your voice." Jin Huainian took a puff of cigarette slowly, looking lazy.
Han Siti pursed her lips, her eyelashes fluttering: "No."
The white mist half-obscured the man's stern face. He laughed, his voice a little hoarse, "We should save this for bed."
Han Siti opened his eyes wide and said angrily, "Shameless! Hang up!"
Jin Huainian looked at the phone screen that had been hung up, and his smile deepened.
"Who are you calling?" Yu Xingqian came over with a glass of wine and sat down next to him.
Jin Huainian raised his head slightly, exhaled a puff of smoke, and looked relaxed. He did not respond.
Yu Xingqian had just flown back from Chengdu, more than a thousand kilometers away, and had heard something about Jin Huainian.
"It's only been a year since we last met, and people online are saying you have a girlfriend. That's an exaggeration." He said, shaking his head.
Jin Huainian glanced at him and put out the cigarette butt into the ashtray on the table.
After finishing his drink, Yu Xingqian said, "Can your girlfriend stand you being silent like this?"
Jin Huainian sat there with an indifferent and noble look, and didn't respond much to his words.
"Why don't you bring her here?" Yu Xingqian asked.
Jin Huainian rubbed his brows: "She went home."
"No wonder I asked you out a few days ago. You kept saying you didn't have time." There was a hint of joking in his eyes: "Are you planning to just settle it like this?"
Jin Huainian's hands fell to his side: "No."
Yu Xingqian raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "After all this time, you are just playing around."
Jin Huainian had a self-deprecating smile on his face: "No."
He didn't understand: "What do you mean?"
The lights cast a sense of loneliness and the atmosphere was frozen.
Yu Xingqian reacted and asked hesitantly, "Could it be that they don't want to?"
Jin Huainian glanced at him.
Yu Xingqian completely understood the meaning behind it: "Really? No way."
Jin Huainian's phone flashed, he picked it up and saw that it was a message from Han Siti.
Han Siti: [What should I do? I can't sleep. It's all your fault. Hurry up and apologize to me.]
I can imagine her expression.
Jin Huainian sent her an emoticon of patting her head.
【sorry. 】
Han Siti: [I don't forgive you.]
Yu Xingqian had evil thoughts in mind and glanced away, passing by.
Jin Huainian put away his phone and turned around to see his prying eyes.
"Are you raising a princess?" Yu Xingqian didn't quite understand him.
In the second-generation circle, everyone is praised by others, but he is the opposite.
Jin Huainian's expression was calm and he didn't refute.
"How did you two meet? Who pursued whom?" he asked again.
Jin Huainian has no interest in sharing his feelings with others.
Seeing this, Yu Xingqian didn't ask any more questions. He touched the edge of the wine glass with his fingers and started drinking with a few friends beside him.
———
Han Siti woke up from a nap and it was almost evening.
She scratched her hair and came out of the bedroom yawning.
Dad has gotten off work from the hospital and is busy in the kitchen with Mom.
Han Siti held a glass of water, leaned against the wall at the kitchen door and said, "What are we having for dinner?"
Mom said, "Your dad knew you were coming back, so he bought some shrimps for you."
Han Siti put the water cup aside and smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Dad. You just got off work, go and have a rest. I will help Mom."
"No need, go watch TV." Dad came over and said.
"Really?"
Her mother looked at her and said, "Don't make things worse."
"All right."
Han Siti returned to the living room and watched TV for a while, and the food was ready.
After dinner, she went downstairs to buy a bottle of yogurt.
There were some people walking around the community. Han Siti came out of the convenience store and saw the tall figure of a man under the street light from a few meters away. His eyebrows were deep and three-dimensional, and it was hard not to notice him.
Next to him are his grandparents.
I should be accompanying them for a walk.
Han Siti paused and wanted to go around from the back, but they had already looked over.
She could only greet them: "Grandpa Chen, Grandma Chen."
"Dandan." They said with a smile and patted the man next to them: "Go."
Han Siti stood by the flower bed, and the man's shadow fell on the ground, extremely clear.
"You bumped into me yourself." Jin Huainian bent down slightly, his eyes dark as he met her gaze.
Han Siti bit the straw and asked him, "Why are you here?"
"Can't I come and accompany grandpa and grandma?" Jin Huainian reached out and pulled her over.
Han Siti lost her balance and almost fell into his arms.
She had good reasons, what could she say?
"Let's walk together for a while." Jin Huainian took her hand and walked forward.
Han Siti said as she walked, "Aren't you going back to Yijiangyue later?"
"Are you going back?" Jin Huainian asked her.
She shook her head: "No."
"I won't reply either."
"…" Han Siti dropped a fist on him and said coquettishly, "You said you didn't come here on purpose."
"I was planning to come to you tomorrow, but I happened to meet you at night. Who can I blame?" Jin Huainian slowly rubbed her knuckles with his fingertips.
Han Siti was annoyed: "It's your fault."
"Okay, blame me."
After walking for a while, I ran into Aunt Wang.
Han Siti wanted to pull him around, but it was too late.
"Dandan." Aunt Wang waved happily when she saw them.
"Good evening, Auntie." Han Siti stopped and greeted.
Aunt Wang looked at them and said, "I knew you were together a long time ago. I knew it last time in the mahjong room."
Han Siti squeezed Jin Huainian's hand calmly, without any intention, simply wanting to punish him.
"Auntie, you have a good eye." Han Siti smiled awkwardly.
"I've met you several times, how could I not know you?" said Aunt Wang.
Han Siti didn't want to stay any longer, so she quickly said, "Auntie, we have something else to do, so we'll leave first. We'll talk next time."
"Go ahead."
Aunt Wang waved her hand and smiled even more.
Han Siti pulled Jin Huainian to the entrance of the corridor. There were voice-controlled lights here, and it was quiet and dim at the moment.
"Are you staying here tonight?" Han Siti asked him while standing on the steps.
Her eyes were level with his.
Jin Huainian smiled and said, "It's okay to live at your place."
"Be careful or your parents will beat you up."
Han Siti clenched his fist and gestured to him.
“It’s worth it.”
He raised his eyebrows and looked straight at her, with a half-smile on his face.
