Chapter 495 [Sheng Rong] Confession
Qiao Lili originally thought it would be awkward for two people to live in such a small place together, but it was actually not that bad.
They are classmates and are starting a business together, so there is no chance of embarrassment.
There is always something to talk about.
The people in the forum are suffering... You will never see the two big guys arguing again because they have switched to offline.
That night, their startup team was going to hold an online meeting.
Qiao Lili immediately said, "I'll go to the room, you stay in the living room, I won't ruin your innocence."
Ruining your innocence...
How could she say that?
Oh right! Sheng Rong suddenly remembered the misunderstanding when they first added each other’s contact information.
At that time, he was still telling Chu Yao behind her back that Qiao Lili was a wretched person.
Chu Yao won’t tell her, right?
...Impossible, Chu Yao is not such a person.
Soon the video conference began.
The screen was filled with dense formulas and codes, and everyone was discussing the optimization of a complex problem.
Sheng Rong sat on the sofa in front of the coffee table, concentrating.
Now someone else is speaking, and everyone else has their microphones muted.
Qiao Lili was sitting at the desk in her bedroom, frowning as she chatted with Sheng Rong outside: "Sheng Rong, why is this constraint set like this?"
As soon as I said it, question marks began to appear in the chat box:
【??? What did I hear?】
[@Shengrong@Qiao Lili, what's going on?!]
[It's already midnight, and you two are still together? (Eating melon emoji)]
Qiao Lili was shocked... Damn, she just spoke and forgot to turn off the microphone!
Now everyone knows that they live together!
When she was extremely embarrassed, Sheng Rong outside the door comforted her: "Calm down, don't panic."
He turned on the microphone and explained everything from how they went out to sell things together to how they were quarantined here together.
They are said to be innocent and they live together purely to cooperate with epidemic prevention.
Everyone: I hope you can still be clean after living together for half a month.
Now that they know everything, they don't have to stay in one room and outside the other.
We can definitely sit down together and discuss.
The meeting ended soon.
They are still discussing.
As they discussed, their bodies involuntarily moved closer.
Qiao Lili listened to his low and serious voice analyzing in her ear. Her head was buzzing and she couldn't hear the code at all. All she could see was his focused profile.
"What do you think?" he said, turning to ask her.
Qiao Lili suddenly met his gaze, and after a long moment, she slowly spoke, "Ah?"
Sheng Rong saw that she was a little slow to respond, so he asked, "Are you sleepy? Go to sleep first."
Qiao Lili was indeed feeling dizzy, but she was also worried: "I haven't done the homework from the last lecture yet."
Sheng Rong said, "That's just child's stuff. It won't affect you whether you do it or not. I'll do it for you."
"Well...thank you." Qiao Lili was indeed very tired, so she quickly went to take a shower and go to bed.
When she lay down on the bed, she saw the faint light coming in through the crack in the door and couldn't help laughing for a long time.
In fact, she could feel his favoritism and care.
Maybe he likes her a little bit too.
-
The next day, Qiao Lili knew why she felt uncomfortable.
She had a fever, cough, and lay in bed feeling weak all over.
It must be because I was protecting Sui Heng’s anus the night before and was in contact with him for too long that I got infected!
Damn Sui Heng, he wanted to harm her even after he left!
"Qiao Lili, breakfast is ready. Would you like to get up and have something to eat?" There was a knock on the door and the sound of Sheng Rong talking outside.
Qiao Lili's voice was as hoarse as Donald Duck: "I'm going out to eat later. You should wear a mask quickly. I've been infected again."
Sheng Rong was silent for a moment, then immediately asked, "Where is your medicine box?"
Qiao Lili: "I'll go get it myself later."
After a while, Qiao Lili got up.
After washing up, she pointed out the location of her medicine box to Sheng Rong and asked him to take some medicine as a precaution.
Then I plan to have breakfast.
I was fine at first, but when I walked to the dining table and was about to sit down, everything in front of me started to spin, my limbs suddenly became weak, and I fainted!
Fortunately, Sheng Rong reacted quickly and quickly supported her: "Li Li? Can you hear me?"
Qiao Lili was in a daze. She could hear but was completely unable to open her mouth to answer.
The next second, she felt herself falling into a warm and solid embrace.
After a few seconds of dizziness and disorientation, I lay down on the soft bed again.
She could still feel him busy around her.
This is all day long.
Take her temperature and give her fever-reducing medicine.
He brushed away the sweat-soaked hair on her forehead and carefully wiped her face and neck with a warm towel to cool her down.
At night, if she coughed badly, he would wake up immediately, knock on the door gently and come in, handing her warm water and cough syrup.
Being hit a second time feels worse than the first time.
Especially when you are in a foreign country and your parents are not around.
Fortunately, I have him and this real companionship.
Otherwise, she didn't dare to imagine how she could endure this loneliness and pain alone.
-
The next afternoon, although her fever was still high, she finally felt a little better.
After Sheng Rong fed her the medicine, he sat on the chair beside the bed and looked at the thermometer.
Qiao Lili looked at his focused profile and suddenly whispered, "You're so caring, is it because you've taken care of your girlfriend before?"
She regretted it after asking.
I'm confused, why are you asking this!
But unexpectedly, he answered.
His tone was calm and frank: "I've never been in a relationship, but I did have a girl I really liked in high school. She was very lively, cheerful and positive."
Qiao Lili's heart sank suddenly. So he liked the kind of lively and cheerful girls?
She continued to ask in a hoarse voice: "So... do you still like it now?"
Sheng Rong smiled with relief. "She got married right after graduating from college. Her husband is also a good friend of mine. They're always close to me and showing off their affection. Sometimes they make me so angry... I even want to fight her husband."
"Moreover, when my family first went bankrupt, it was she and her husband who saved my father. They gave me a lot of energy and inspired my whole family to pick themselves up."
Qiao Lili's mood was like a roller coaster, but she felt better in an instant.
He let it go!
He is single now!
And he was willing to share this past with her!
She asked seriously, "If they both saved you, why do you only have a crush on the girl and not the boy? In this case, you actually have a better way to repay them, which is to become their adopted son and be filial to them both."
Sheng Rong was silent for a long time, then gave her a thumbs up: "...the angle is tricky!"
Qiao Lili smiled. Even though she was sick, her emotions were more outgoing and she became bolder.
Her brain was so confused that she couldn't control her mouth at all:
"On the day we first met, I told you that I saw someone I liked, so I didn't go to see you."
"Actually, what I said is true."
"You are the one I like."
