"You're close to me?" Si Jin laughed. "When Li Xiao wanted to drag me to the lab, I tried to dissuade you, but didn't you scold me for overthinking it and tell me not to get involved?"
"Jinjin, I was just saying that in a fit of anger. We're family!" The woman sobbed, "You're the only man in our family, the pillar! If you don't take care of us, how am I supposed to live?"
"If you can't live, then die. It's that simple." After saying that, Si Jin hung up the phone again, blocking and deleting the unfamiliar number as well.
Are you in a hurry?
You should be anxious. Being rejected by him in person and suffering little by little will make you feel desperate.
… …
Without the mermaid's interference, Si Jin finally got a good night's sleep for the past three days.
The next day, I had just finished washing up when my phone rang.
Another unfamiliar number?
Si Jin didn't have much patience and hung up immediately, then started thinking about what to eat for breakfast.
Before I could decide, I saw another text message from the unfamiliar number that had just called: "Are you home? I'm off this weekend, I'd like to come over and drop by to return your buttons and tie."
Oh? Si Jinwei raised an eyebrow: He's an unorthodox doctor.
I casually sent the address, along with the message: "[I want some mushroom and chicken buns. Bring them over, I won't tell you.]"
After replying, I was too lazy to even cook dinner, so I just heated up some milk, and then the doorbell rang.
As I opened the door, I was met with a pair of eyes that seemed to hold the stars in their shattered glory: "Good morning, sir."
As she spoke, she held up the breakfast in her hand, and even after entering the room, she remained cautious: "Your partner... isn't here?"
They really went all out with their act.
"No, this is my own home." Si Jin played along with him calmly, her words without the slightest flaw: "I had a fight with him, so I came back to stay."
"Oh, no wonder you dared to send me. You're such a jerk." After saying this, Lin Yuan stood blankly at the door.
Seeing that Si Jin was wearing slippers, I realized that humans have feet and therefore need to change into shoes.
This is such a hassle!
Lin Yuan paused only slightly during his movements, trying to appear normal, but as soon as he stepped inside, Si Jin pressed his shoulder down and whispered something in his ear.
"Yeah, I'm a jerk. If I weren't a jerk, how would you have a chance to shine?"
Lin Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and he unconsciously tightened his grip on the plastic bag—this statement was somewhat ambiguous.
Did they discover his disguise, or were they giving "Doctor Yuan" a chance?
The merman pondered for a moment, then leaned towards the latter, walking to the coffee table and placing the plastic bag down: "Why are you arguing?"
He propped his head up with one hand and asked innocently, "With a boyfriend like you, I'd be busy spoiling and pampering you, but instead of going to the hospital with you, he argued with you..."
At this point, he seemed to suddenly realize something, paused for a moment, and then changed the subject: "Then he must have some extraordinary abilities, right?"
Si Jin placed the milk on the coffee table, leaned back on the sofa armrest, and asked, "Why would you think that?"
Lin Yuan: "He doesn't care about you, he hurts you, he argues with you, and he doesn't know how to coax you. I even have to bring him food. If he doesn't have any outstanding qualities, then... it's really hard to say."
"Do you know that we argued because you pulled two buttons on my shirt?"
"What you're saying is all my fault. I apologize." Lin Yuan said, then slowly stood up, took a button out of his pocket, placed it in front of Si Jin, and generously said, "Here you go."
Seeing that the person was about to reach out, he suddenly pulled Si Jin's hand behind his back, hugged him, and leaned down to kiss him.
