For dinner, Suman made An Ning his favorite seafood noodles and baked a few egg tarts. An Ning was burping even when he was sleeping.
After An Ning fell asleep, Su Man returned to her room and practiced the skills she had learned during the day.
Again and again, until she could depict one or two things with her eyes closed, she turned her sore wrist.
When Zhao Man was learning makeup, her teacher said that she had some talent, but she had wasted too many years and had to make up for it through hard work and practice.
After Su Man had almost digested what she had learned today, she put everything on the table back into her makeup box.
Just as she was getting ready to go to bed, she suddenly heard some noise downstairs.
-
The hour hand of the clock points exactly to twelve o'clock.
As soon as Qiao Yingrui entered the room, he bumped into the shoe cabinet at the door and fell directly to the ground in the entrance hall.
He used the ground to support himself and tried to stand up, but failed after several attempts. He sat against the door for a long time before he managed to stand up.
Qiao Yingrui had been drinking all night, and his eyes were blurry and his throat was burning with pain.
He staggered to the kitchen and subconsciously looked for the honey water that Zhao Man had made for him.
Looking at the empty desk, his sanity slowly returned.
Yes, he had quarreled with Zhao Man, and she no longer cared about him.
Because of the alcohol, Qiao Yingrui was a little more sentimental than usual. He sat dejectedly in the chair, like a stray dog.
Half of the one-month deadline his boss gave him has passed, but he still has no idea about the investment.
It has been a long time since he was so embarrassed since he became the CEO.
Now, in order to please those senior executives so that they would go back and say a few good words to the boss, he had to pay out of his own pocket to treat them to a big meal.
Not only that, he also had to smile like his grandson, serve tea and water, and wait on the table.
Not only outside, but also in the company he was treated coldly.
Many people have been jealous of his position for a long time. They would take advantage of him to make a mistake and take a piece of his flesh.
Thinking of this, he became more and more discouraged. If he continued like this, he would soon lose his position in the company.
Qiao Yingrui regretted his decision. If only he hadn't quarreled with Zhao Man, none of this would have happened.
In the past, he thought Zhao Man was useless in this family, but today, he found that he could not do without her in every aspect of his life.
Without her, he couldn't even have a hot meal in the morning. When he came home at night, even if he passed out drunk on the sofa all night, no one would help him take off his dirty clothes or pour him a glass of honey water.
...
[Qiao Yingrui's favorability increased by 10, current favorability is 30]
Su Man, who was about to go to bed, stopped making the bed when she heard the reminder tone.
It seems that Qiao Yingrui is very vulnerable today.
Su Man curled the corners of her lips. In that case, it wouldn't hurt to work overtime.
-
Downstairs, the disheartened Qiao Yingrui walked unsteadily to the kitchen counter to pour himself some water.
The kettle swayed back and forth, and only half of the water flowed into the cup, while the other half poured onto him, making him look even more embarrassed.
The clear liquid flowed into his mouth. After drinking a few sips, he suddenly felt nauseous and rushed into the bathroom, holding the toilet and vomiting continuously.
He hardly ate anything at night, and all he vomited was liquid. He was almost exhausted.
After groping for a long time, I finally pressed the toilet water button. With a "splash", water swirled into the outlet.
When he stood up, his eyes went dark and the next second the whole world was spinning.
Just when he thought he was going to fall hard on the cold tiles, suddenly a pair of hands supported him.
Is it Zhao Man?
At this moment, Qiao Yingrui's vision was already blurry, and he let the other party help him to the bedroom.
In a daze, he felt a pair of hands gently lift the loose hair from his forehead.
"Ah, look at you, how pitiful you are."
Such a gentle voice made Qiao Yingrui, who had been treated coldly recently, feel a lump in his throat.
Then, I felt a warmth at my lips, and it was a cup of water.
The sweet honey water flowed slowly down his throat, bringing a little comfort to his aching stomach.
When he finished his last sip, the cup was moved away.
Qiao Yingrui grabbed Su Man's arm with his remaining consciousness, "Xiao Man, don't go."
“…”
Looking at the drunk man on the bed, Su Man sneered, "Don't leave?"
What? Do you want your sister to warm your bed?
Tsk, wishful thinking.
She ruthlessly pushed him away, leaving behind a sentence, "This is your room and hers, I won't disturb you."
"No..."
Qiao Yingrui, who was lying on the bed, felt his palms empty, and his heart seemed to be empty as well.
For the first time, he felt that compared to missing a deceased person, missing someone who could be seen, touched, and was by his side was real.
[Qiao Yingrui's favorability increased by 20, current favorability is 50]

next day
When Su Man got up, Qiao Yingrui had already left.
He left a note at the entrance: Thank you for the honey water.
Su Man pulled it off, rolled it into a ball, and threw it straight into the trash can.
Today is Saturday, An Ning doesn't have to go to class, and there is an event at the makeup school this weekend, so Ding Lan directly gave Su Man two days off.
It was supposed to be a relaxing holiday, but it was ended by a phone call from Shen Liping.
It turned out that Qiao Lecheng fell down while playing with Qiao Keke yesterday. Shen Liping was worried and took him to the hospital for a checkup. It turned out that his bones were fine, but he had a heart problem.
"How is it, Dad? Is he seriously ill? Tell me the address and I'll go there now." Su Man asked with concern.
