Chapter 583 Sleeping in Her Bed
At this time, the elevator arrived and Zhang Shaoqing walked in. "Let's go back. It's cold in the corridor."
Zhang Shaoqing didn't even look at her until the elevator door closed.
Cheng Xiaoyu shivered as a cold wind blew into the corridor. He wrapped his clothes tightly around himself and returned home in a daze.
He took another look at the cup of brown sugar water in the kitchen and frowned. There was actually a men's watch on the countertop!
That was Shi Chenyuan's watch. Did he take it off and put it there on purpose?
Whether it was intentional or not, Zhang Shaoqing must have guessed that there was another man in her house when he saw the men's watch.
It was because of him that the misunderstanding arose between her and Dr. Zhang.
Now Dr. Zhang must think she is a huge scumbag.
Cheng Xiaoyu rushed into the bedroom angrily, but saw Shi Chenyuan lying on her bed, seemingly asleep.
Looking at the big man lying on her bed, she secretly complained that even when he was asleep, he still had a cold poker face.
By the way, are you pretending to be asleep?
"Hello."
Cheng Xiaoyu was unhappy and didn't call him Mr. Shi or Mr. Shi, but the "Hello" was still a little weak in momentum, as if he subconsciously didn't want to wake him up.
Shi Chenyuan did not wake up, and his breathing sounded even.
It feels like this person hasn't slept for a long time.
Cheng Xiaoyu sighed secretly, turned around, took out a blanket from the closet, and draped it over him.
She knew that Shi Chenyuan had been very busy recently, and even his weekend schedule was full.
Even though he was so busy and tired, he still sent her home and took care of her while she took medicine. Cheng Xiaoyu was not ungrateful.
But before leaving, he couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "For the sake of you paying me, I'll let you sleep a little longer! You black-bellied man!"
After Cheng Xiaoyu walked out of the bedroom, Shi Chenyuan opened his eyes, looked at the door that had closed again, stroked the soft blanket on his body, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
Outside, Cheng Xiaoyu curled up on the sofa, sipping the brown sugar water that Shi Chenyuan made for her.
She was thinking about what Zhang Shaoqing had just said.
She felt no joy when she saw Zhang Shaoqing, nor was she reluctant to see him go. When she saw him lost, she felt only guilt, but no heartache.
Even after spending many days together, she still didn't seem to have any feelings for Dr. Zhang.
She actually had no expectations for their future.
Just maintaining this relationship has exhausted her.
She remembered what Jiuyao said when they were shopping.
Jiuyao said, you don’t seem to be getting married, but rather escaping from reality.
I don’t want to deal with my parents’ pressure to get married, and I don’t want to deal with the emptiness and pain brought by a broken heart, so I want to solve these problems by getting married.
But have you ever thought that this is very unfair to Zhang Shaoqing?
What's more, such a marriage can neither relieve emptiness nor bring happiness.
Jiuyao's words hit all of Cheng Xiaoyu's pain points.
After the breakup, her world seemed to collapse, and she really placed all her hopes of changing the status quo on marriage.
But if I don't cheer myself up and get married, I'm afraid it will only make me suffer more.
What should I do then? Divorce? That would be extremely irresponsible to Dr. Zhang.
After much deliberation, Cheng Xiaoyu decided to have a frank talk with Zhang Shaoqing the next time they met.
Since it is not suitable, it is better to end it early to avoid wasting each other's time.
When she figured this out, she suddenly felt less uncomfortable physically and her heart was much more relaxed.
After drinking the brown sugar water, Cheng Xiaoyu felt warmed up physically and mentally, so she turned on the TV and lowered the volume, thinking of letting Shi Chenyuan sleep for a while before calling him.
When Shen Yuan came to the living room, Cheng Xiaoyu had already fallen asleep while watching TV.
He helped Cheng Xiaoyu turn off the TV, squatted in front of her, and tidied the messy hair on her face. She frowned, as if she was angry.
"I pissed your boyfriend off, do you blame me?"
Cheng Xiaoyu was sleeping very soundly. She smacked her lips, but seemed not to have heard what he said, nor did she wake up.
Shi Chenyuan smiled faintly, held her gently in his arms, and walked into the bedroom.
