"What are you doing?"
When Li Xin came out of the shower in the evening, she saw He Beichen sweeping the floor with a broom in his hand.
sweep the floor?
She had already asked Sanmao to clean the house carefully, so there shouldn't be any problems.
Li Xin walked over and saw He Beichen cleaning the corners. He looked so serious that he didn't seem to be sweeping the floor, but rather looking for something.
"Did you drop something in the corner?" Li Xin asked him with a puzzled look on his face.
"No." He Beichen shook his head, but he didn't even let go of the broom under the sofa. "I want to see if there are any other springs that have fallen off at home."
Li Xin: “?”
He Beichen actually believed her words and was even looking for the spring at home?
"Um, was it because the previous spring was not enough?" Li Xin was silent for a while before speaking.
Although He Beichen said before that the spring was taken away by Du Peng, she gave He Beichen several more later, which should be enough. Why did he suddenly look for springs at home again?
"See if there are any extra ones. Du Peng said that spring is very good." He Beichen explained without stopping his hands.
"It's gone. I've cleaned the house thoroughly, leaving no corner untouched." Li Xin explained helplessly, trying to stop He Beichen from continuing to look for it.
After all, there is no spring in the house. Even if He Beichen turned the house upside down, he would not be able to find it!
He Beichen looked at the broom and saw that there was not even a speck of dust on the floor after it was swept out from under the sofa. It was obvious that what Li Xin said was not wrong. She cleaned the house carefully, cleaning every corner.
"There are no springs at home, and it's getting late. You should take a shower and go to bed." Li Xin thought for a moment, snatched the broom from He Beichen's hand, and urged him to take a shower.
“…”
Well, it seems that it is gone.
He went back to his room to get his clothes, walked to the bathroom door and pressed the switch.
Snap——
He Beichen: “!!!”
The moment the bathroom light came on, He Beichen squinted his eyes. When the strong light shone on him, he felt like he was about to be blinded by the brightness of the light.
"Isn't the light broken?" He Beichen asked curiously.
After closing his eyes for a while, He Beichen felt a little relieved and slowly opened his eyes, but he still felt that the bathroom was a little too bright.
"Ah, I don't know what happened. I suddenly found that it lit up again during the day." Li Xin heard He Beichen's question and lied with his eyes open in the living room.
After all, she couldn't say that she made a light bulb herself and replaced it, right?
In order not to arouse suspicion, Li Xin made some improvements to the original light bulb in the bathroom, otherwise it could be brighter.
The lights of this era tend to be warm yellow, and incandescent lights are relatively rare.
"Is it okay?" He Beichen muttered, not even daring to look up at the light above his head.
The light is too bright, and it's too dazzling to look directly at it, just like looking at the sun, and it makes you dizzy.
"Well, I think there was probably some poor contact last night." Li Xin tried his best to appear calm, nodded at He Beichen, and affirmed himself.
He Beichen: "..."
Even if it gets better on its own, can the light still become brighter than before?
He Beichen was confused and felt that something was wrong.
"But it's just right, you don't have to buy any more light bulbs." Li Xin smiled at him harmlessly, "Go take a shower quickly."
“…”
"I'm going to sleep first." She didn't dare to continue facing He Beichen outside. She was worried that He Beichen would see through her, so she simply chose to escape.
He Beichen looked at the light in the bathroom. The entire bathroom was clearly illuminated, even the corners, and it was even clearer than in the daytime.
Is this still his bathroom?
How come it's so strange and clear?
Even in the army, He Beichen had never seen such bright lights. He certainly would not believe what Li Xin had just said.
But where did this light come from?
Just like the spring before, it must be related to Li Xin.
It seems that the young wife has a secret, but she is unwilling to tell it.
He Beichen withdrew his gaze from the bedroom door.
Since Li Xin didn't want to talk, he naturally wouldn't ask any more questions. As long as he didn't do anything harmful, he could turn a blind eye and pretend he knew nothing.
But he also wondered, if they got to know each other better, would Li Xin be honest with him?
…
next day
He Beichen steamed buns for her and bought some tofu pudding for her breakfast.
"It seems that the matter of the lamp should have been resolved for He Beichen." Li Xin patted his chest as he saw that He Beichen had already gone to the army.
That’s right, isn’t it just that the light bulb is a little brighter?
There's nothing strange about it!
After breakfast, Li Xin asked Sanmao to clean outside while he hid in the space to do research.
It was not until He Beichen was about to come back that Li Xin came out of the space and took Sanmao back.
Knock knock knock——
Li Xin was washing vegetables in the kitchen when she heard someone knocking on the door.
Did He Beichen forget to bring his keys?
A hint of doubt flashed through her mind, but after thinking about it, she felt that this possibility was not very high.
The knocking sound continued, Li Xin wiped his hands and walked out to open the door.
The person standing at the door was indeed not He Beichen, but an acquaintance he had met before - Du Peng.
"Hello, He Beichen hasn't come back yet, but he should be back soon. Why don't you come in and wait?" Li Xin was stunned for a moment, then quickly made way to let Du Peng come in.
If Du Peng comes, he must be looking for He Beichen.
"I know. He has something to do in the army today. He won't be back home for dinner." Du Peng greeted her and stood at the door but did not go in.
"ah……"
So, He Beichen won't be coming back for dinner tonight, and asked Du Peng to make a special trip just to tell her?
This man is quite attentive.
It's just a bit too much trouble for others.
