"Oh, why are you so nervous?"
Yu You smiled and held his bucket: "I just came to help you. Now that the problem is solved, can we still be friends?"
Shi Jin was silent for a while, then said, "What do you want to ask?"
Yu You smiled, and then repeated the question just now: "Don't you want to go back to the Qin family?"
"I don't want to." Shi Jin raised his eyes, his expression calm: "Then what?"
Yu You: “…”
Damn it, why don't you give me some time to react? Why are you answering so quickly?
But he quickly adjusted himself: "Why not? Qin Zheng and Xie Yi abandoned you and your sister, and your grandfather. He knew about your existence for so many years but ignored you. Don't you want to take revenge on them?"
He lowered his voice and guided her, "And your useless brother, Xie Shizhang's treatment in the Qin family is not as good as before. Your grandfather is very disappointed with him. At this time, as long as you go back, the Qin family will definitely be in your hands."
"Now that you have captured the Qin family, are you still worried that you can't take revenge on them?"
Shi Jin nodded, his face calm: "Continue."
Yuca shelled for a while.
This means...it sounds like there should be some intention, right?
He pondered for two seconds, and finally continued as planned: "Although the Qin family is currently in decline, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although you will be valued if you return to the Qin family, it is not an easy task to completely control the Qin family."
Shi Jin lowered his eyelashes: "So."
"So!" Yu You patted his chest and said, "We can help you. Whether you want to control the Qin family or bring down the Qin family, my cousin can help you achieve it."
Shi Jin did not doubt Chen Yuan's methods, but...
He raised his eyelids: "Why should I believe you?"
"My cousin." Yu You said without blinking, "You should know that the exposure of Qiulu Mountain and Qingliu Village was the work of my cousin, but you probably don't know who organized them, right? That's right, it was the old man from the Chen family."
He didn't even bother to call him uncle-in-law, but directly called him the old man of the Chen family, which shows how much he disliked Chen Zhen.
Yu You: "Chen Zhen's health has not been good for a few years. His condition has worsened recently and he has been recuperating. Now the Chen family is in chaos. My cousin wants to seize power, and Qiulu Mountain and Qingliu Village are her gifts of surrender."
Of course, this surrender gift was not aimed only at Shi Jin. His cousin's original words were for him to focus on winning over Yu Ci, but after observing for the past few days, he felt that winning over Yu Ci was unlikely, so he simply chose to start with Shi Jin.
Besides...
Yu You's eyes rolled.
He had a hunch that if he could win over Shi Jin, he might even be able to get a buy-one-get-one-free gift to the Yu family.
“What do I need to do.”
Yu You's eyes lit up: "It's very simple, you just need to go back to the Qin family and provide some help when my cousin seizes power, so that she can successfully gain a foothold."
As for why Chen Yuan could help Shi Jin gain a foothold in the Qin family but could not take over the Chen family independently - even though the Chen family suffered a great setback after this incident, it was still at its peak. However, the Qin family had been declining step by step since the eldest son of the Qin family had a car accident, and now it is just struggling to survive.
This was also Chen Yuan's idea. If Shi Jin took control of the Qin family with her help, the Qin family, which was facing decline, would not be able to be supported by him alone. At this time, he would definitely come to seek her help. At that time, she would only need to make some moves, and perhaps both the Qin family and the Chen family would be in her pocket.
Yu You also knew what his cousin was planning. Although he thought it was a bit cruel, he chose his cousin without hesitation between an outsider and his cousin.
only......
Shi Jin nodded calmly, then said, "I refuse."
Why?
Yu You was about to speak when he saw Shi Jin, who had just looked calm, turn his head to the side. Although his expression did not change, the coldness in his eyes melted slightly: "Why are you here?"
Yu You was slightly stunned, then he followed Shi Jin's gaze and was shocked when he saw who it was.
Shit, how much of what he said did he hear?
His heart was churning, but he didn't show it on the surface. He smiled and greeted as usual: "Brother Yu Ci, are you here to bask in the sun too?"
Not far away, children playing in the mud and sand in the square were picked up by their parents one after another. From a distance, you could hear their parents scolding them for getting their clothes dirty.
Shi Jin's attention was briefly drawn away.
When he came to his senses, he heard Yu Ci's voice in his ear.
"No." He said, "I'm here to pick someone up."
Yu You was silent. He looked at Shi Jin beside him. Naturally, he would not be so bold as to think that Yu Ci was here to pick him up.
He stood up holding the bucket, without waiting for anyone, and said "I'm leaving first" and slipped away, leaving Shi Jin and Yu Ci staring at each other.
After staring at him for a while, Yu Ci couldn't help it anymore.
He reached out and touched the tip of his nose, looking away: "This weather is really hot."
Shi Jin said, "Not bad."
He has a peculiar physique: he is afraid of cold but not heat.
Yu Ci paused slightly as he touched his nose with his fingertips.
Shi Jin looked at him, remained silent for two seconds, and added hesitantly: "Now... it seems a little hot?"
"Yeah, it's hot."
Yu Ci nodded and casually took out a bag from behind him: "I just happen to have a cup of milk tea here, do you want some?"
milk tea?
Shi Jin's gaze paused, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes: "Did you buy it?"
If he remembered correctly, there didn't seem to be anyone selling milk tea in the village.
"No." Yu Ci looked away uncomfortably: "Xu Qian brought it to me this morning. I don't like to drink it, so I thought I'd ask you if you want it."
As soon as he said this he realized he had said the wrong thing.
A trace of annoyance flashed in Yu Ci's eyes. He moved his lips, but only said one sentence: "Do you want it or not? If not, I will lose it."
Shi Jin pursed her lips and took the milk tea: "Thank you."
The milk tea was put in an insulated bag, so it still retained a bit of cool temperature after a long journey.
Shi Jin took a sip. The rich aroma of milk mixed with the strong fragrance of tea seemed particularly sweet in this village steaming with heat from the sun.
He lowered his head, holding the milk tea in his hand and sipping it slowly.
A bird fell from a tree not far away, flapping its wings on the ground, making a slight sound.
Shi Jin looked over in the direction of the noise and was about to speak when something gently touched the top of his head.
Um?
Before he could react, a big hand reached out and brushed away the leaf that had fallen on his head.
Before withdrawing his hand, Yu Ci paused, and then moved it back very naturally.
Yeah, it feels good.
Shi Jin, who had no idea that he was being treated as a cat, raised his head and his eyes fell on the leaves that Yu Ci had dropped. He thanked him naturally and looked in the direction of the bird he had just seen.
The little bird seemed to have just learned to fly. The yellow fluffy down on its body had not yet completely faded, and was mixed with the large feathers that had grown, making it look a mess.
Shi Jin waited for a while.
Two larger birds flew down from the spot. They looked plump and must be the little bird's parents. Encouraged by the chirping of the two large birds, the little bird shook its wings and finally flew up.
The three birds circled the tree twice and soon dived into the dense branches and leaves.
Shi Jin's eyebrows relaxed slightly, he turned around, and the corners of his lips curved slightly: "Go back."
The two lines of sight collided unexpectedly.
Yu Ci's heartbeat suddenly stopped, and then it started beating rapidly as if he had stepped on the accelerator. His chest also felt like it was being scratched by a feather, sore and soft, incredibly soft.
He unconsciously missed a breath, his eyes flickered a few times, and then he avoided Shi Jin's sight in a panic, lowered his head to pick up the wooden basin under the tree: "Let's go."
After returning to the inn, Yu Ci said hello to A Qiu who was sitting at the counter and then went straight into the room.
He didn't open the curtains or turn on the lights. He sat down on the bed in the dim light, then took out his cell phone and opened something.
After thinking for two seconds, he crossed his fingers and typed a few lines on the screen:
What causes the heart rate to suddenly increase?
Why does breathing suddenly stop but there is no discomfort?
What is the reason why the heart feels like being tickled by a feather?
——
Why do you always want to touch someone?
Is irregular heartbeat a disease?
After searching and browsing 128 pieces of relevant information, Yu Ci came to a conclusion:
He is sick.
And it seems to be an incurable disease.
In the dim room, Yu Ci sat quietly for a while, took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Xu Qian.
Xu Qian's cell phone rang just as he parked at the service area on the highway.
As soon as he saw the WeChat message, he became so happy that he didn't even go to the toilet.
[Yu Chi (Ci Ge)]: Where are we?
[The Universe’s Invincible Brother Ci’s Number One Little Brother]: We’ve reached the service area and are almost getting off the highway.
[The most invincible brother in the universe, Brother Ci, the number one little brother]: Brother Ci, how about it, do you like milk tea?
Yu Ci's fingertips tapping the phone paused slightly. He recalled Shi Jin's expression at that time. It seemed... okay?
[Yu Chi (Ci Ge)]: Not bad.
[The most invincible brother in the universe, Brother Ci, and his number one little brother]: Fortunately it’s ok, if it tasted bad I would have cried to death.
After sending this sentence, Xu Qian became bolder and sent out the teasing remark without thinking.
[The most invincible brother in the universe, Brother Ci, number one youngest brother]: Brother Ci, it seems to me that you are treating your roommate like your wife.
God knows how surprised he was when he received the message from Brother Ci in the morning, asking him to bring a cup of milk tea when he delivered the information. He almost thought that his Brother Ci had fallen in love with some pretty girl in the village.
After asking, I found out that this little goblin's surname is Shi and his given name is Jin.
Thinking of this, Xu Qian clicked his tongue and shook his head twice, then reached out and picked up the milk tea next to the driver's seat.
This was what he sent to Brother Ci along with the information in the morning.
He bought two cups, but Brother Ci only ordered one, so the remaining cup followed him all the way back.
Xu Qian didn't use a straw, he just opened the lid and took a sip. The sweet milk tea invaded his mouth, and he frowned instantly: "It's so sweet."
But no matter how sweet it is, he has to finish it even if it is just a glass of sugar water.
After all, this milk tea has traveled with him for hundreds of kilometers. The fuel cost plus the errand fee must be worth a fortune, right?
After pinching his nose and swallowing most of it, Xu Qian began to doubt whether what was in Brother Ci's mouth was still okay.
Would Shi Jin really like something so sweet?
He picked up his phone with some doubt about his life, and just in time he received a message on WeChat.
【Yuchi (Ci Ge)】: Don’t be poor;
[Yuchi (Ci Ge)]: I want to ask you something;
[Yu Chi (Ci Ge)]: If I see someone, my heart beats very fast, my breathing is irregular, and I always want to reach out and touch him, what is wrong with me?
Xu Qian keenly captured a key word.
[The most invincible brother in the universe, Brother Ci, the number one little brother]: Him?
[Yu Chi (Ci Ge)]: Yeah.
[Yu Chi (Ci Ge)]: I checked on Baidu and it said that I might have heart disease, respiratory disorder syndrome, high blood pressure, diabetes and skin craving disease.
Xu Qian was suddenly confused by the long list of disease names. When he reacted, he quickly typed a line of words in the dialog box: Brother Ci! Calm down! This is not to be believed. Even the healthiest person would be terminally ill if he used a certain drug.
He finished typing, but before sending, another message came from the other side.
[Yu Chi (Ci Ge)]: But I had a full physical examination in June, and everything was normal.
Xu Qian took another sip of milk tea and complained silently: Not only is everything normal, the doctor almost said that you are so strong that you can kill a cow.
But it’s okay if Brother Ci doesn’t believe it.
Xu Qian deleted the long paragraph he had just typed and sent another sentence instead.
[The number one little brother of Brother Ci, the invincible one in the universe]: You are right, you are not sick, these reactions are normal.
[The number one little brother of the invincible brother Ci in the universe]: Let me ask you, does your heart beat faster and your breathing become disordered when you see someone?
[The most invincible brother in the universe, Brother Ci, and his number one younger brother]: Your heart beats faster whenever you see him, but when you don’t see him you always want to find him. You want to touch his hand or face from time to time, and you often stare at his face in a daze?
[Yuchi (Ci Ge)]: ...Yes.
[The Universe’s Invincible Brother Ci’s Number One Little Brother]: Then let me ask you again, do you dream about him at night and do some unspeakable things?
The author has something to say:
Onlookers: What does unspeakable mean?
Xu Qian: It’s that kind of hehehe, you know what I mean!
