Yan Shi was completely confused by Zhuang Zhao's words and didn't know what to say for a moment. Although she had achieved her goal in terms of the result, she still felt that something was wrong.
Was Zhuang Zhao hurt by her? If someone she was close to said that, she would definitely be sad.
What should we do? We need to find a way to repair the relationship.
Zhuang Zhao left early the next morning, and Yan Shi only saw the note slipped under the door.
I've moved in with Han Yan. I'll pick you up from get off work as usual. If we end up working different shifts, don't forget to let me know.
Yan Shi thought for a while, but his mind went blank and he couldn't think of any way.
Quan Hou came out of his room while preparing breakfast.
"Why are you preparing breakfast today? Where is Zhuang Zhao?"
He moved away.
"Did you two have a fight?"
"No."
"Then why did you move away? I was always the extra one."
"But we, who are staying here, can't just kick you out."
"If it's to be our wedding home, I'm open to moving out."
"What wedding room? Who's getting married?"
Quan Hou gave up trying to communicate with her.
After breakfast, looking at the empty room, even with Xiao Hei keeping me company, it felt lifeless.
“He’s usually not around this time either, so why don’t you seem bored?” Yan Shi began to mutter to himself.
"Maybe it's because I know he'll be back tonight, and I know we'll definitely meet. We're just living separately, but it's like we're never going to see each other again."
"He must have lost his mind to talk nonsense yesterday."
But it's no use regretting it now; the important thing is to find a way to show goodwill.
Fortunately, a good opportunity will come in a few days, and she must seize it.
Should I eat some walnuts to boost my brainpower? I feel like my brain is getting less and less sharp.
Zhuang Zhao appeared just before the end of the workday, and unlike usual, he was holding a flower in his hand.
When Yan Shi saw Zhuang Zhao coming over, he quickly picked up a rag and started cleaning.
"I think I'm too early."
"Hmm, there are still ten minutes left."
"Then I'll wait outside."
"Let's stay indoors, it's cold outside."
"Yesterday, I was out of my mind and talked nonsense, please don't misunderstand. I just had a bad dream and took it out on you, I'm sorry," Yan Shi said, lowering her head and avoiding Zhuang Zhao's gaze.
"No need to apologize. They say distance makes the heart grow fonder. Maybe if we live apart, my sister will miss me even more," Zhuang Zhao said with a smile.
"You said you're staying with Han Yan, don't let him lead you astray. Boys need to protect themselves when they're out and about."
"I know, I won't do anything to upset my sister."
"It's time, boss, I'm off work." Yan Shi called upstairs while counting the money in the drawer, waiting for the boss to come down and hand over the work.
"Here you go." After leaving the house, Zhuang Zhao handed the flowers in her hand to Yan Shi.
"Thank you. Where did you buy it? There aren't many places selling flowers this season."
"Han Yan's friend has a greenhouse where he grows many flowers."
"These days, having a greenhouse makes you a big shot."
"It's the greenhouse of Sang Gui in the Sang family. You didn't want me to ask about Sang Zhi, so you mentioned Sang Gui first, and then the greenhouse. Han Yan took me to visit the greenhouse. Before leaving, Sang Zhi asked me to choose a flower to take back with me."
"So what's the deal with Sangzhi and the Sang family?"
“Sangzhi broke up with her family because of her boyfriend and lost contact after the apocalypse. Sang Gui and the others thought that Sangzhi had gone to find her boyfriend. Because Sangzhi was talented and clever, her family was not too worried.”
"She has a boyfriend? I've never heard her mention it. What's Sang Gui's relationship with Sang Zhi? Is he her brother?"
"Yes, her brother, I told him about the Dong family siblings. He said he would see how talented the two children are. If they are talented, he would adopt them. If they are not talented, he would take them as his disciples and take good care of the siblings' lives."
"I didn't expect Sang Gui to be so easy to talk to. It seems that the Sang family has a good family tradition. I don't know why they don't agree with Sang Zhi's boyfriend."
"There might be some hidden story."
"Definitely."
"The flowers are quite pretty, but with such low temperatures, they probably won't survive more than two days."
"It's said to be a cold-resistant flower, and it can survive for a while if you put it in water."
"That's great. Seeing a vibrant flower by my bedside when I wake up in the morning always lifts my spirits."
Zhuang Zhao and Yan Shi went back together to buy groceries and cook. After eating and cleaning up, Zhuang Zhao said goodbye to Yan Shi and prepared to leave.
"It's so late, you're not planning to keep running back and forth like this, are you?"
"It's only a ten-minute run, consider it exercise."
"It's fine during the day, but it's not safe at night either, so how about..."
"There's no danger. Even if I encounter an alien species, I can escape. You should go to sleep. You need to rest more if you're not feeling well. I'll bring Baozi over tomorrow morning."
"Alright, give me your prepaid card." Yan Shi reached out his hand.
"Here you go." Zhuang Zhao handed over the prepaid card without asking any questions.
"We'll split our savings in half. Don't spend money recklessly, and don't mistreat yourself. You're still growing, so you need to make sure you get enough nutrition."
"You don't need to give it to me."
"That won't do. It would be embarrassing if you didn't have enough money to buy things. Although saving money isn't very useful these days, having emergency funds in your wallet gives you confidence. Don't get carried away and spend too much and then not have enough for living expenses."
No way.
Little Black appeared out of nowhere, circling around Zhuang Zhao's legs and meowing incessantly.
"You heartless little thing, take Little Black away and bring it back tomorrow morning. It'll be looking for you during the day."
"Then I'll bring it back tomorrow morning." Hearing Xiao Hei's pitiful cries, Zhuang Zhao didn't refuse and reached out to pick it up and put it in his arms.
See you tomorrow morning.
Han Yanjia
"What are you after? You've done everything you should and shouldn't have done, and you still got kicked out. You look like a stray dog, so pathetic."
