When Shi Xi returned, Song Guizhou was visibly happier.
Shi Xi found it funny.
This child is so easily satisfied.
Shi Xi walked over, took a handful of food from his palm, and scattered it into the center of the lake.
The fish swarmed forward and quickly devoured the food.
Song Guizhou didn't say anything, but slowly walked to Shi Xi's side.
After a moment of silence, he finally couldn't contain himself and asked out of curiosity:
"Brother Xiao An."
"Aren't you going to ask me?"
If a normal person knew they were being monitored by so many cameras, they would definitely be unhappy, and might even want to escape.
So when Shi Xi looked at the camera just now, she was almost looking directly at him through the lens. At that moment, Song Guizhou's heart was pounding in his throat.
He was prepared for Shi Xi to be angry and question him.
Unexpectedly, Shi Xi gave a dismissive reply, indicating that he didn't care, or perhaps he felt that his response was childish and meaningless.
Shi Xi looked at the school of fish scattering in the lake. "What are you asking?"
"About the camera?" He took the last bit of fish food from Song Guizhou and swung it down with a flourish.
"Brother Xiao An... I didn't mean to, I was just worried."
"I'm not blaming you," Shi Xi said.
"There are also many surveillance cameras inside Haidilao."
Seeing the anxious expression on Song Guizhou's face, he suddenly smiled. "It's understandable that you're worried about your brother's health."
Song Guizhou understood Shi Xi's implication, but he was not happy.
Because what Shi Xi meant was that the two of them were brothers, and could only be good brothers.
Shi Xi felt that Song Guizhou probably couldn't accept it right now, but he was a devoted male supporting character, not a villain, so she couldn't just turn against Song Guizhou, could she?
Then his public image will completely collapse. :)
Shi Xi turned around and walked along the winding pier to the shore, only to find that Song Guizhou had not followed.
He turned his head and looked at Song Guizhou, who was still standing in the pavilion—
"The wind is rising."
"We should go back."
...
The heavy rain came unexpectedly.
Shi Xi sat on the recliner, watching the maple leaves swaying in the rain. The rain was heavy and knocked down many maple leaves and a few ribbons.
Seeing this, Song Guizhou frowned and prepared to go downstairs.
Guessing what he was going to do, Shi Xi turned to look at Song Guizhou, "No need."
"We'll clean up after the rain stops tomorrow."
Song Guizhou pursed his lips, but finally stopped.
Just then, Shi Xi's phone suddenly rang.
He glanced down and saw it was that unfamiliar number again.
"An unknown number." Shi Xi said, tossing her phone to Song Guizhou, then stood up and went to the restroom. "You call that for me."
"An unknown number." Song Guizhou frowned as he looked at the unfamiliar number.
After hesitating for two seconds, he answered the phone.
A gentle female voice came from the other end of the phone, instantly conjuring up an image of a graceful and demure woman from Jiangnan.
Song Guizhou simply didn't have the time to think about those things; he just wanted to end the power outage as soon as possible.
\"Who are you?\"
Ye Xuyan, on the other end of the phone, was stunned when she heard Song Guizhou's voice.
That youthful male voice didn't sound like Yu Jiu'an at all.
She originally planned to meet Yu Jiu'an to talk, since the boy was good-looking and Si Beiling liked him, and she wanted to play matchmaker for the two of them.
Unexpectedly, I ran into a tough opponent right from the start.
But... why is Song Guizhou holding Yu Jiu'an's phone?
"I am Ye Xuyan, and I am looking for Yu Jiu'an." Ye Xuyan paused for a moment, then decided to give it another try.
After all, she had made many calls, and only this one was answered. It was a rare opportunity, and she didn't want to give up easily.
"What do you want with him?" Song Guizhou frowned even more as he saw another ribbon fall outside.
He narrowed his eyes.
Ye Xuyan, he had heard of this name before; the other party was Si Beiling's sister-in-law.
Ye Xuyan: "..." This wary tone clearly came from Song Guizhou.
"Little friend, can you give the phone to your brother?" Ye Xuyan asked.
"No, he's taking a shower. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now. Goodbye."
"..." Ye Xuyan.
...
Frustrated by the failed power-on, Ye Xuyan opened the familiar group chat.
Did Si Beiling go home with his wife today? (3)
[Ye Xuyan: Good news, the call finally went through; bad news, Song Guizhou answered. (crying)]
[Si Nanjun: He's better than me; I couldn't even get through. (Touches his face)]
[War correspondent Si Huaiyu: Huh? What have you been doing behind my back?!]
[Si Nanjun: Children shouldn't interrupt adults. Go play somewhere else.]
Ye Xuyan: +1
[War correspondent Si Huaiyu: ...]
Two minutes later.
[War correspondent Si Huaiyu has been added to this group.]
Si Nanjun: "..."
Ye Xuyan: "..."
The two men exchanged a glance and exclaimed in unison, "Damn it, there's a traitor among us!"
Both of them pressed the recall button at the same time, but received a notification that the message could not be recalled after more than two minutes.
"……"
[Si: Don't go looking for Yu Jiu'an anymore. I can handle my own affairs with him.]
[Si Nanjun: ...Okay.]
Ye Xuyan: +1
Si Beiling looked at the messages the two had sent, paused for a moment, and then sent another message.
[Company Manager: Please change the group name.]
[Si Nanjun: ...Okay.]
Ye Xuyan: +1
Si Beiling put down his phone, stroked the red ribbon in his hand, took a deep breath, and didn't understand why Shi Xi wanted to give it to him.
"I wish to find someone who is of one heart."
Shi Xi couldn't possibly be unaware of what this meant, but Si Beiling knew that the other party giving him this wasn't what he expected.
After hesitating for a moment, Si Beiling decided to ask for clarification, so he sent Shi Xi a message.
The other person seemed to be busy and did not reply to him.
...
When Shi Xi opened the bathroom door, she saw Song Guizhou standing to the side.
The other person was wearing a dark coat, and the shoulders were a little damp, so it seemed they had gone down.
He pretended not to notice, sat back down in the recliner, and glanced at the scenery outside.
Sure enough, all the ribbons that had fallen to the ground were gone.
"Who made the call?" Shi Xi asked.
"I don't know. A strange woman, she said her name was Ye Xuyan." Song Guizhou looked at Shi Xi, "Does Brother Xiao An know her?"
"..." Shi Xi thought for a moment, but couldn't find the person.
So he shook his head: "I don't know him."
Just then, Shi Xi's phone lit up.
He opened it and found that it was a message from Si Beiling.
[Company: (Image) Why did you send me this?]
Of course, it's so that you and Song Guizhou can love each other in the future and the storyline can progress smoothly!
Shi Xi complained inwardly.
But he certainly couldn't just tell Si Beiling like that. After hesitating for a second, Shi Xi replied to him.
【secret.】
