065
Early the next morning, the two got up and took Xing Xiaobai to the hospital for examination.
Fortunately, the results were good. Except for malnutrition and not too serious ear mites, all other indicators were normal.
Nan Ke, wearing a mask, watched Xing Chen ask the doctor about various precautions, thinking that this person was kind and gentle, and everything would be fine.
but--
She didn't expect to see Quan Xiu downstairs of her house.
Between pretending not to see and seeing and going up to say hello, Nan Ke hesitated for a moment, but still took the initiative to walk forward and say hello.
Yan Xuan was following Quan Xiu, and Nan Ke was sure that Yan Xuan saw her.
But for some reason, when she walked over, Yan Xuan and Quan Xiu turned around and walked away, as if they were in a hurry to leave.
Xing Chen followed her and asked her, "Baby, what's wrong?"
“…I saw someone I knew.”
Nan Ke didn't tell the whole truth: "But they may not have seen me. Forget it, let's go."
Xing Chen narrowed his eyes and looked over, saying, "I've seen him."
The tone was very firm. Nan Ke's eyelids twitched. He shook Xing Chen's hand and asked casually, "Really?"
"Um."
Xing Chen stared at the two people walking away and said, "I saw them yesterday."
He suddenly turned his head to Nan Ke, "Is he here to see you?"
Nan Ke pretended to be bewildered: "Hmm? I don't know... but it shouldn't be him. If he came to see me, why did he leave before seeing me?"
Xing Chen frowned slightly, nodded his chin, and agreed with this statement.
They went home together, Xing Chen washed his hands and cooked, while Nan Ke played with Xing Xiaobai.
Xing Chen was a little absent-minded and almost cut his hand while cutting vegetables.
He couldn't help but turn around to look at Nan Ke, and saw that she was having a lot of fun with her new friends, and she looked at him as if she had sensed something.
"What's wrong?"
There is no clue from his expression.
Xing Chen shook his head slightly, then nodded: "There is no cooking wine."
He was about to take off his apron and go out, but Nan Ke stood up and stopped him: "I'll go buy it."
Nan Ke didn't even change his clothes after returning home. He just put on his shoes, took his cell phone and left.
Xing Chen had no reason to refuse, so he stood there in a daze, staring at the door that was closed in front of him.
After watching for a while, he felt confused and sat down on the sofa.
It takes about ten minutes to go to the nearest supermarket downstairs to buy things and back.
If Nan Ke wanted to meet someone else or make a phone call to someone in a place he didn't know, it would take more time.
Xing Chen closed his eyes, feeling panicked.
Soon, he suppressed his uneasiness and stood up, then went back into the kitchen to continue working.
At least we can't be chaotic at this time. We need to make every dish well right now.
He thought that most things in this world were much easier than saving a lover's heart.
If he can't even do these little things, he has no right to dream of anything else.
Xing Chen's movements were quick and swift. This was something he was used to doing. Now he only needed to go by the feel and the taste would not be bad.
But when he paused, he couldn't help but wonder if Nan Ke was tired of the food he cooked.
It’s not that he hadn’t thought about Nan Ke being interested in food from outside, he just couldn’t imagine that such a thing would actually happen.
That person...
Xing Chen looked at the pot of boiling water. The lid of the pot was pushed up again and again, making ominous noises.
That person looked really familiar, as if I had seen him somewhere before. Nan Ke said they knew each other and didn't hide anything, which should prove that there was something between them...
Wait... Xing Chen opened his eyes wide. He remembered that person was——
Someone came in from outside, and Xing Chen subconsciously looked at the time.
Ten minutes, no more, no less.
Nan Ke's expression and eyes were normal. When she noticed Xing Chen looking at her, she smiled and asked what was wrong.
"You came back quickly."
Nan Ke shrugged and handed the bag of cooking wine to Xing Chen.
“The supermarket isn’t crowded, so there’s no need to queue.”
After saying that, Nan Ke naturally picked up Xing Xiaobai and snuggled up on the sofa with him to watch TV.
She clicked on Harry Potter and suddenly thought of something. She looked in the direction of Xing Chen and spoke to him loudly.
"I suddenly want to change its name."
Xing Chen casually asked her what she wanted to change it to.
"Dobby."
Nan Ke sighed softly: "I like Dobby so much, ah, forget it." She rubbed Xing Xiaobai's head: "Dobby's ending is not good, you should still be called Xing Xiaobai."
Even though he had something on his mind, Xing Chen couldn't help but smile softly when he heard Nan Ke's lively chatter.
After dinner, they followed the doctor's instructions and applied medicine to Xing Xiaobai together.
Even though Xing Chen had trimmed his nails, he was still scratched twice. There was no bleeding, but there were scratches.
Xing Chen said he would go wash up. Nan Ke looked at his expression, put down the culprit and followed him.
She stood by and watched Xing Chen wash the wound, and asked him softly, "Don't you like having pets?"
Xing Chen looked at her and smiled at her: "No, you think too much, baby."
He raised his hand and ran his fingertips across Nan Ke's cheek, leaving a trail of water.
Nan Ke frowned and blinked, seemingly disliking this sudden interaction, but rarely did he express his dissatisfaction.
Xing Chen's heart was in a knot, and it was hard not to care.
"But I see you just don't like it."
Nan Ke curled her lips and said, "You didn't stop me because you didn't want me to be unhappy, right? If you don't like it, you can actually tell me the truth."
Tell her the truth?
Xing Chen imagined the situation and told her that he didn't have any special feelings for small animals. It didn't matter whether it was a cat or a dog, as long as she liked it.
As long as she likes it, she can accept it.
What would Nan Ke think? How could her boyfriend be so heartless and cold-blooded? She couldn't abandon the animals, but she could change the men around her.
"Really not."
The moment Xing Chen lowered his head, he quickly found an excuse.
"I'm still thinking about what happened yesterday and I'm scared."
Nan Ke's eyelashes trembled slightly and he lowered his head. Xing Chen's heart tightened again.
He casually talked about Nan Ke's work arrangements.
"It's Susu who's communicating. She understands me and will make arrangements."
Xing Xiaobai has become familiar with his current living environment and is particularly fawning to the person who brought him back.
The two were talking when it came over and rubbed against Nan Ke's legs. Nan Ke laughed reflexively and picked it up and held it in his arms.
I rubbed its little head and said, "How good."
Nan Ke asked Xing Xiaobai to face Xing Chen and whispered to it, "See? This is the head of the family. You have to please him to stay. You have to make him like you."
Xing Chen was amused and felt soft in his heart.
After the smile, an indescribable feeling of desolation swept through his heart.
As the head of the family, would Nan Ke fall in love with someone else?
If she really already has someone else, and she is still willing to play along and say these words to him, does that mean—
Anyway, at least right now, I am more important than others?
Susu called not long after and told Nan Kexin Wei Yu wanted to see her.
"I don't want to see him."
Su Su thought about it and didn't force her: "No matter how you look at it, he is responsible for this matter. It's not rude if you don't want to care about it."
Then she talked about the program crew.
The incident happened suddenly, was of a serious nature, caused a big disturbance and was difficult to resolve.
The program crew offered to compensate Nan Ke, hoping that she would settle the matter peacefully. In addition, Su Su said that although the other party suggested that Nan Ke could continue recording the program if she was willing, their words implied that they hoped she would voluntarily withdraw from the recording.
"I quit?"
Nan Ke thought about it, but still found it funny when she heard it with her own ears. She was a complete victim, so why should she quit?
Su Shuo also became angry, but not to a serious degree, probably because he had already calmed down.
"They openly want to kick you out, but they can't say that, so they keep giving me the thumbs-down. Their main goal is to tell me that if you're willing to withdraw, they'll give you compensation."
"How much?" Nan Ke was quite interested in this number.
"It's about the same as your original salary. I'll see what you want to do. If you insist on finishing the filming in one go, that's fine."
Nan Ke sneered: "I don't want to record it anymore."
This price can buy her silence. As long as the money is in place as soon as possible, Nan Ke can let this matter go.
In that show, Han Qin was a ticking time bomb, and Xin Weiyu had already exploded once, so she didn't want to put herself in danger again. For a few dollars, not to mention getting paid without doing anything, it couldn't be better.
Su Su laughed: "I knew you would think so."
Nan Ke sighed: "I don't want to see any of those people again. Tell them to transfer the money as soon as possible. After they get the money, I will shut up."
Su Su nodded, asked a few more questions about her situation, and hung up the phone.
Nan Ke came in from the balcony and saw Xing Chen observing Xing Xiaobai's ears.
She trotted over and hugged Xing Chen from behind, buried her head in his shoulder, and took a deep breath.
Xing Chen turned his head away and asked her what was wrong, "Did the conversation not go well?"
"It's okay."
Nan Ke let him go, held his face, and glanced at the little guy on the ground.
"I take back what I said before."
Xing Chen's face was rubbed by her twice, but he remained patient and asked her, "What did you say?"
Nan Ke looked into his eyes carefully. His eyes were pure and kind, without a trace of aggression.
With someone like this by her side, what else could she complain about?
"Have I brought a rival for myself?"
Xing Chen's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he pursed his lips, knowing that Nan Ke was saying that he cared too much about Xing Xiaobai.
"Of course not. I'm doing this for your sake."
Nan Ke did not let him go. She left her teeth marks on his lips, without biting through them, but it made Xing Chen feel distracted.
Xing Chen closed his eyes, took the initiative, picked up Nan Ke, and gently placed him on the sofa.
The two of them were entangled tightly together, and just kissing and caressing made them breathless.
Xing Chen's hand moved down, but Nan Ke stopped him.
"Let's go to the bedroom. This place...is not suitable for children."
Xing Chen lowered his head and smiled dully, then picked up Nan Ke again and looked into her eyes intently.
