Chapter 10010 Tracking
Others can't do it, but Xue Yi can.
The door lock clicked softly.
Xue Yi was tidying up the empty sofa.
There was still a faint trace of warmth on it, so she gently smoothed out every wrinkle and sprayed the disinfectant into the air.
She felt a soft touch at her feet. It was the little raindrop hiding in the corner running over and rubbing her calf affectionately.
Xue Yi squatted down and stroked its furry head. "You think I should do this too, right?"
Her voice was soft, as if she was asking herself.
The little raindrop raised its round eyes and wagged its tail like a propeller.
She continued to herself, "He and I are at most half colleagues. This brief encounter caused by a high fever doesn't mean anything.
I have no obligation, and even less desire, to continue caring for him. His fever has just subsided, and he may still be a little weak, but this weakness is not enough to justify staying in someone else's home. As an adult, you should be responsible for your own physical condition."
Little Raindrop seemed to understand, and made a small whimper in her throat, and licked the back of Xue Yi's hand flatteringly with her tongue.
The most important point was that she didn't say it.
This is her home, her private space.
Taking in a strange man for the night was already an exception, and now that he had recovered, it was time for him to leave.
Moreover, she has been used to being alone since she was a child. The sudden appearance of another person will make her feel fear, panic, and anxiety... These are all uncontrollable stress reactions. Only when her life returns to order can she adjust.

Yu Zeyuan's workstation is still empty.
Xue Yi's eyes fell on the performance report on the computer screen, and his forehead ached slightly.
There are only ten days left until the next month. The bright red 320,000 yuan is like a death warrant, reminding her all the time that she needs to complete nearly 50,000 yuan of sales every day.
This is not a small amount of money.
Now that the market is sluggish, people are no longer as impulsive in their spending as before, but have become more rational and cautious.
Nowadays, the performance is getting harder and harder every month. It's like a mountain is pressing down on people, making it hard to breathe. Not only her, but the entire industry is also complaining.
Xue Yi called everyone to a meeting to discuss the final ten days of the fight.
The meeting ended at seven o'clock in the evening.
Xue Yi didn't take the subway as usual, but chose to take the bus. She wanted to see what the scenery was like on this route home from work that she had taken for five years but always missed in the darkness of the subway.
The carriage was empty at night, with only a few passengers here and there.
Xue Yi found a seat by the window and sat down.
The car window was slightly open, and the summer night wind carried a smell of stuffiness and dust, faintly mixed with the aroma of barbecue from the night market in the distance.
Vehicles flow continuously and city lights flicker.
Occasionally, I pass by the backs of a few cyclists or a delivery boy on an electric scooter. They rush hurriedly through the night, rushing to their respective battlefields of life...
Inside the car, she was like a bystander walking through the bustling night scene.
It turned out that this was the night scene after get off work that he had missed for many years.
Amidst the hustle and bustle, there is a sense of busy alienation, like a roll of underexposed film, flowing blurrily.
The bus arrives at the station.
Not long after Xue Yi got out of the car, she felt as if a strange gaze was following her.
She quietly quickened her pace, and the footsteps behind her also quickened, accompanied by the rapid wheels of the suitcase. She turned into a fork in the road, and the footsteps behind her followed closely behind.
Seeing the gate of the residential complex just around the corner, after a few attempts, Xue Yi decided not to sit still and wait for death. He suddenly stopped and turned around.
It was indeed him.
Xue Yi frowned and asked in a wary tone, "Yu Zeyuan, why are you following me so stealthily?"
Yu Zeyuan's body stiffened, obviously startled.
He changed into clean clothes, a simple black T-shirt and brown overalls, which made his shoulders look broad and his legs look long. Under the light, his face was rosy and he didn't look sick at all.
Being caught on the spot, instead of retreating, he took a few steps forward, put his left hand in his trouser pocket, raised his chin slightly, and said confidently: "I was kicked out by my family. I gave you the last penny I had. Now I have no place to live."
In fact, he had nowhere to go from the moment he looked for Xue Yi.
She kicked him out yesterday and he had to stay in a hotel. It was convenient, but the cost of one night was not cheap and he couldn't stay there for a few days. What made him even more frustrated was that he was unwilling to do so.
From childhood to adulthood, there have been countless girls around him, and he has been treated like a star. How could he have ever been treated like this?
An unprecedented sense of frustration came over me.
Since she believes that she is a poor boy...
It’s better to just go with the flow and blame it on her!
Once the thought came to his mind, he could no longer hold back. He quickly packed his luggage and blocked her way back to the community.
Xue Yi's eyes fell on the brown suitcase beside him. The huge LV logo looked particularly dazzling under the orange street light.
Oh, what a penniless person, living on the streets, yet he still didn't forget to bring a brand-name suitcase. He is really trying to save face but suffers in vain!
Xue Yi was furious and didn't bother to talk nonsense with him: "What does it have to do with me if you have no place to live? You forced the money on me, and we were even a long time ago." After saying that, he turned around and left.
As a result, someone acted like a rogue.
Yu Zeyuan stretched out his long legs and blocked the way.
He leaned forward slightly, staring at Xue Yi with his beautiful peach blossom eyes, and said, "Although my fever has subsided now, who knows if there will be any sequelae? Besides, I fell ill at your house and I'm still very weak. You have to take responsibility until I fully recover! Otherwise..."
He raised a malicious smile and lowered his voice, "Otherwise, I'll report this to the company. Our dedicated Manager Xue probably doesn't want his image to be damaged. After all, I'm just an intern. You should be the one who's more afraid of trouble."
Xue Yi's pupils shrank slightly.
This guy! How dare he threaten her? It seems he's determined to fight to the death.
She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. Now was not the time to get angry.
Not to mention the pressing pressure from her family, her career blueprint was only halfway through and she needed connections right at that moment. If something went wrong now, it would only lead to failure...
After weighing the pros and cons.
Xue Yi gritted her teeth and said reluctantly, "Okay... I can take a step back." She took out her phone and said, "I'll transfer the money to you now. You can find a hotel to stay in, but my house is definitely not allowed!"
Staying in a hotel? How is that possible?!
He went to great lengths to block this place not only for revenge, but also for one thing...
According to his observation, the residential complex where Xue Yi lived had an excellent geographical location, convenient transportation and living, and most importantly, few acquaintances there, allowing him to perfectly avoid that "circle".
Moreover, I remember clearly the last time I stayed at her house. The house had three bedrooms and a living room, and there were obviously extra empty rooms.
He ignored Xue Yi's suggestion and offered a friendly solution: "Don't bother. I'll only stay for a month. I promise to behave myself and not disturb each other."
Xue Yi was about to refuse when the other party added another sentence.
"Oh, by the way, don't worry..."
He quickly scanned her body with his eyes and said with a click of his tongue: "I'm not interested in your style."
