Chapter 1342 I... can wait for you, no matter how long it takes.
When Zhou Enyou took Qin Meng home, it had been raining outside for a long time.
Before he could even enter, the door opened automatically from the inside. Qin Chuli stood inside. The lights were not fully on, and the dark background made Qin Chuli look a little cold.
Zhou Enyou had just seen Liu Shuyi off and was in no mood.
After entering the door, I squatted next to the midnight snack bar.
The phone rang several times beside him but he had no interest in looking at it. Zhou Enyou thought it was the old man asking about the work progress.
She spoke to Yexiao in a listless tone.
Zhou Enyou and Liu Shuyi grew up together. Since Liu Shuyi came home, she has never been separated from her for such a long time. She knows that Liu Shuyi took the initiative to study abroad, mostly in order to take over Lao Ba and others' job in the future so that she can better assist her. It's all for the future.
But she still felt unhappy.
Liu Shuyi is not a very sociable person, and it is not easy for her to deal with business matters.
Zhou Enyou squatted on the ground and spoke softly to Ye Xiao.
As soon as Zhou Enyou came back, Qin Chuli felt that she was in a bad mood. He thought it was because Ning Ce left and she was unhappy. He pursed his lips, sat down, and whispered to Zhou Enyou: "I have experienced graduation projects and ceremonies abroad. It will be over in about two months. Don't be sad."
Zhou Enyou felt that Qin Chuli's words were incomprehensible. Liu Shuyi would not come back for at least another year.
Just as he was about to speak, there was a knock on the door.
Qin Meng went to open the door.
As the door opened, there was silence for a few seconds, and then Zhou Enyou heard Qin Meng say, "Enyou, there's another handsome guy at the door, even more handsome than Ning Ce!"
Zhou Enyou stood up, confused. When he saw the person standing at the door, he was stunned for a moment. "Sixth brother? Why are you here?"
Lao Liu stood at the door, raindrops falling down his forehead. His face, which looked very much like Zhou Suihuai, was now filled with anxiety. "Where's Shuyi?"
"Leaving?"
Lao Liu's expression was instantly overwhelmed by an overwhelming sense of loss. He stared at Zhou Enyou blankly, "Gone... gone?"
Zhou Enyou couldn't bear to watch, so he asked Qin Chuli to bring a towel over and wipe Lao Liu's face. "It's raining so hard, why don't you hold an umbrella?"
Lao Liu let Zhou Enyou wipe his head and asked in a low, muffled voice, "Did she... leave any message?"
Zhou Enyou: "I'll keep it so you can study hard."
"You're lying, she would never say that."
Zhou Enyou sighed softly.
"Sister, can you lend me your phone?"
"What are you doing? She's on the plane, stop making trouble."
"Lend me a moment. I want to say a few words, just a few words."
Zhou Enyou was helpless, "Can't you make a call on your own cell phone?"
"I called, but she didn't answer."
Zhou Enyou went back into the house to get a cell phone for Lao Liu. After getting the phone, Lao Liu walked straight out and made a call under the eaves where the rain was dripping.
Zhou Enyou stood at the door and heard Lao Liu lower his voice, trying hard to control the trembling in his tone, and asked with extreme grievance, "Are you leaving?"
"You... came back, why didn't you tell me?"
"I... can wait for you, no matter how long it takes."
Zhou Enyou couldn't bear to listen any further.
The rain was getting heavier, hitting the young man's shoulders along the eaves, soaking a large area in an instant, but Lao Liu seemed to not care at all.
The call was not long. The person on the other end seemed to have only said two or three brief sentences before hanging up.
When he brought the phone over, Zhou Enyou saw that Lao Liu's eyes were red, and he pursed his lips in grievance and handed the phone to Zhou Enyou.
"You came out of the international school late at night, and the teacher told you that you skipped class. You're all wet. Come in and change your clothes. I'll take you back to school."
Lao Liu shook his head and said, "No, I drove here myself."
Zhou Enyou didn't listen to any of this. He simply pulled the man inside and stuffed him into his bathroom. "Take a hot bath."
After putting all the clothes on the bed, Zhou Enyou closed the door. Qin Meng was waiting at the door with an expression like a cat seeing a fish.
"Sister En, is that your brother inside?"
Zhou Enyou looked at Qin Meng warily, "My dear brother."
"He likes Liu Shuyi?"
That was the first time Qin Meng saw Zhou Enyou turn a cold face towards her. She was very straightforward and warned Qin Meng directly, "She's already taken, don't even think about it."
Qin Meng suddenly felt a little hurt.
He felt that Zhou Enyou looked down on him.
But later, a long time later, she and Qin Chuli, who was standing in the living room that night, realized that in Zhou Enyou's heart there was a ranking of how much he cared about people, and Liu Shuyi and her brothers were at the very top.
Zhou Enyou can be enthusiastic, generous and easy to talk to, but if the interests of those she cares about are touched upon, she will fight to the death.
Zhou Enyou was very protective of his own people.
Lao Liu took a bath, and Zhou Enyou sent him back. Lao Liu clutched the towel and whispered to Zhou Enyou, "Sister, can I sleep here with you for one night? I feel uncomfortable."
Zhou Enyou: 'Yes.'
There were four rooms in the small, shabby courtyard. One belonged to Qin Meng, one to Qin Chuli, and the other was used to store miscellaneous items. Qin Chuli wanted to vacate his own room, but Lao Liu said, "No need. I'll sleep in the living room. I always slept in the living room when I came here before."
That night, Zhou Enyou threw his cell phone aside, completely ignoring the old man's bombardment in the group, and played games with his younger brother in the living room.
Qin Chuli stayed with him until four in the morning before the game sound stopped.
Lao Liu was tired, resting his head on Zhou Enyou's knees, "Sister, tell me, will I never get what I want?"
Zhou Enyou was still playing games, and the sound of the gun was heard.
"I don't know, but I think that if she really wants to find someone in the world to be her partner, you are the most suitable person."
Lao Liu was not excited about this, but remained silent for a long time.
It was so long, so long that even Qin Chuli thought that Lao Liu had fallen asleep, but he heard his voice, filled with sorrow, say in a low, hoarse voice: "But I feel that she only intends to spend her life with this one person."
Zhou Enyou's eyes were always on the screen.
Lao Liu, "Sister, if it were you, what would you do?"
Zhou Enyou replied calmly, "When faced with a choice, everyone should ask their own heart, rather than follow the choices of others. But if you insist on asking me, I will fight to the end."
"Whether she plans to be alone for the rest of her life or has someone she likes, I only ask myself: as long as I still like her, I will stick with her until the end."
(
Lao Liu's eyes lit up.
"However, you have to find some way to fight to the death. The hardest thing in life is to get what you want, but you also have to have some ideas, right? You are just too stupid to find Liu Shuyi's weak spot. Just like my uncle, he is also stupid, so he wasted so many years with my Master Lin. Otherwise, the child would probably have grown up with me."
Lao Liu sat up with a sincere expression, "Sister, what do you say?"
Zhou Enyou blinked, glanced at Qin Chuli who was struggling in the living room, and whispered something in Lao Liu's ear.
Qin Chuli didn't hear a word.
Lao Liu came in exhausted and battered, but when he left, he looked energized and full of fighting spirit, not at all like someone who had just stayed up all night.
Qin Chuli was very surprised and was even more curious about Zhou Enyou's methods other than fighting to the death. He immediately asked politely what he was talking about. Zhou Enyou smiled mysteriously and casually turned on the vibrating mobile phone on the sofa.
The old man's voice echoed throughout the living room in the first rays of light in the morning.
"Zhou Enyou! I've been looking for you all night! Where have you been?! Do you know that the lab data needs urgent follow-up?"
"Get back to the lab right now!"
No one encouraged Zhou Enyou, so her temples were throbbing with pain. Without a break, she was dragged into the laboratory by the old man. She didn't even have time to eat breakfast. The data was at a critical juncture, and the old man was afraid that Zhou Enyou would go crazy again, so he didn't let her go home and booked a hotel directly across from the school.
When Qin Chuli came to deliver food, he felt that Zhou Enyou was so weak that he was almost breathing, and had no appetite at all. Qin Meng was amazed at Zhou Enyou's condition.
“It’s not easy to be a top student.”
Zhou Enyou couldn't eat. After drinking two sips of soup, he felt greasy. He took a bottle of water, drank two sips and was about to get up.
Qin Chuli immediately called for someone to stop, but before he could say anything, an old man who was watching from the side suddenly appeared from somewhere and called out to Zhou Enyou, who was speechless, "Old man, are you Zhou Paopi?"
The old man said to Qin Chuli, "I'll release him in a week."
After Zhou Enyou entered the lab, the old man said to Qin Chuli calmly, "I'm sorry. Just finish your exams and come to the lab. She's very capable, and no one can keep up with her thinking. It would be difficult for one person to do it alone. Come and be the twin stars of my lab and lighten her burden."
After saying that, the old man walked away with his hands behind his back.
Qin Meng looked at the old man and narrowed his eyes. "Qin Chuli, this old man is up to no good, you don't believe it, do you?"
Turning around, I saw Qin Chuli holding the textbook and starting to study hard.
Qin Meng thought to herself, she didn't know whether Lao Liu and Qin Chuli understood what Zhou Enyou said yesterday about hitting the snake at its most vulnerable part, but she knew for sure that this bad old man was very good at it.
Zhou Enyou finally finished her battle one early morning a week later, walking home like a zombie. She had slept less than ten hours that entire week. Luckily, she was young and in good shape, or else she would have died from exhaustion.
When the information was submitted, the old man was overjoyed and waved his hand to give Zhou Enyou three days off.
When Zhou Enyou was returning home, it was getting dark on the road and he could not see anything.
She opened the door in a daze, and just as she was about to walk in, she felt a wall. She was really sleepy, so she hugged the wall and fell asleep.
Qin Chuli was stunned.
There was no light in the living room. When he lowered his head, he saw Zhou Enyou had untied the rubber band, her long hair falling on her shoulders. She lay directly on his chest and fell asleep in a daze.
Qin Chuli raised his hand politely and for a long time, he called out softly, "Youyou?"
Zhou Enyou didn't even respond. He hugged him like a pillow, and amidst the deafening sound of his heartbeat, he grumbled softly, "It's so noisy! Who's playing the drums?"
Qin Chuli pursed his lips and called out softly again, "Youyou, go back to your room and sleep."
Zhou Enyou didn't move, so Qin Chuli called out to him softly again. Zhou Enyou got annoyed and glared at the shoes, let go of his hand, walked a few steps to the sofa, turned over, and fell asleep on the sofa again.
Qin Chuli was still standing there, his heartbeat like a drum still pounding loudly.
He was silent for a long time, and then he slowly closed the door in a daze.
He walked to the sofa, covered the unconscious person with a blanket, and stood quietly by his side.
Qin Meng came out to drink water and was startled by the person on the sofa. Seeing Zhou Enyou sleeping, she immediately lowered her voice, turned off the light she had just turned on, and only turned on a small table lamp.
"Are you back?" Qin Meng walked over and asked.
Qin Chuli said, "Yeah."
Qin Meng looked at Qin Chuli's appearance and curled her lips. "Qin Chuli, don't say I didn't warn you. Your current method of waiting for the rabbit to come out of the tree is really not going to work. You are so close to the water tower, but you haven't seen any progress. Sister Enyou is so busy. If you don't speed up, when will you be able to catch up with her?"
"There aren't many good girls left. If someone else takes you away, you can regret it as much as you want."
Qin Chuli raised his eyes, not thinking that Qin Meng would have any good suggestions.
Qin Meng shook his head. "You're just too rigid, too gentlemanly. Between men and women, there should be some ambiguity and romance, understand? You have to be able to create that kind of tacit affection between two people, understand? Don't act like a gentleman all the time. If you continue to be so rigid, you'll never be able to eat meat in your life."
After Qin Meng finished speaking, she returned to her room with the cup of water.
Qin Chuli remained standing, thinking about what Qin Meng had just said.
He thought about it for a long time and suspected that Qin Meng was instigating him to act like a hooligan!
Otherwise, what is the point of not being gentlemanly, what is the point of being ambiguous and charming?
How affectionate?
Qin Chuli was thinking so hard that his head ached. When he raised his eyes, he saw Zhou Enyou's slender limbs exposed under his heroic sleeping posture.
Zhou Enyou was very fair. Under the silvery moonlight, her whole body was gleaming white. Under her slightly open neckline—
Qin Chuli closed his eyes and thought that Qin Meng was a monster!
He was about to close his eyes and get up when the person on the sofa turned over. Qin Chuli was startled and immediately raised his hand, and Zhou Enyou fell into his arms without warning.
The heartbeat that had just calmed down exploded again in the quiet space. Qin Chuli suspected that he even blushed.
My mind is full of what Qin Meng said.
ambiguous.
charming.
Endless love.
The person in his arms couldn't sleep well. When Qin Chuli's mind was full of panic, he opened his eyes slightly. Qin Chuli subconsciously wanted to let go, but the slender arm hooked around his neck.
He didn't use much force. If Qin Chuli wanted to, as long as he tilted his neck slightly backward, he probably wouldn't be able to hook it.
But Qin Chuli couldn't bear to do so.
He heard Zhou Enyou mutter softly, "Qin Chuli, I'm sleepy."
At that moment, all the charming thoughts in his mind were swept away by the sound of sleepiness. He leaned over and carefully picked up Zhou Enyou, stepped steadily onto the stairs, and whispered to the sleeping person: "It's cold down there, carry you to bed."
