Chapter 73
Chi Ke has no hobby of looking at her boyfriend's privacy in public in front of others.
Leng Yunting lived farther away than him, so the driver took him back first. The road was slippery and visibility was low due to the heavy rain, so for safety reasons, the Bentley drove very slowly. During the more than 40-minute drive, he didn't even glance at his phone.
After getting off the car, Chi Ke stood at the gate of the community and hesitated for a while, but still did not take out his mobile phone.
When he was standing at the door and the fingerprint lock was opened, he put his hand down again, pressed the doorbell, and tapped it twice with his fingers.
It was his habit to knock on the door.
There was a sudden clanging sound inside, and there was also the faint sound of something heavy falling to the ground.
"……who?"
Ji Qian's distant and dull voice came through the door.
Chi Ke didn't believe that he didn't know his habit, but he was kind enough not to expose it: "Me."
“Wait, wait a minute!”
There was another rustling sound, and the door finally opened slowly.
"Didn't you say you'd change your flight? Why are you coming back tonight?!"
Ji Qian, with sleepy eyes, was leaning against the door in light grey pajamas with long sleeves and long pants, with an expression of surprise and delight.
If you don't know the inside story in advance, it would be easy to ignore the subtle sense of guilt.
Chi Ke handed him the handbag and put the suitcase outside next to the shoe cabinet: "Auntie, will you come to clean tomorrow?"
The two of them have extremely high requirements for hygiene, and things like suitcases are absolutely not allowed to be brought into the house without being disinfected and wiped clean.
The cleaning lady they hired would come to clean the room once every two days and leave after cleaning, which would not affect their private space for two.
"Yes, we originally planned to meet at nine." Ji Qian took out his phone, "I told them it would be later, so you can sleep a little longer in the morning."
"Yeah." Chi Ke walked towards the bedroom as if nothing had happened, pretending not to notice Ji Qian's Adam's apple rolling.
The two bedrooms were facing each other. Although Ji Qian knew that Chi Ke would not make such a low-level mistake as entering the wrong bedroom, his heart was still pounding with nervousness.
Fortunately, when the doorbell rang, he had just finished that little action that was not convenient to be seen in public.
Although the tools used in the crime were hidden by extreme means, the other remaining traces at the scene could not be dealt with immediately.
They were all men, and they knew what was happening as soon as the door opened.
He saw Chi Ke standing between the two doors and his heart skipped a beat.
After Chi Ke returned to his bedroom without any stop, he breathed a sigh of relief.
...It's really exciting.
"Ji Qian, give me the bag."
Chi Ke called out from the bedroom.
"Hey." Ji Qian was startled and almost turned around. He fastened the belt of his pajama pants that he hadn't had time to tie, and hurried over, "Here."
Chi Ke packed up his things neatly, glanced down casually, and said nothing.
But Ji Qian, who felt guilty, was paranoid about everything.
After waiting for a while, Chi Ke didn't speak, so he pretended to be relaxed and said, "It's normal to put the car in neutral when sleeping, right?"
He didn't have this habit, but time was urgent and he didn't have time to put it on!
Chi Ke didn't even look at him: "I didn't say it was abnormal, why are you panicking?"
"What? I'm not panicking. How can I be panicking? I'm not panicking at all. I'm just so happy to see you back." Ji Qian took his clothes and said, "I'll help you pack."
Hearing this, Chi Ke simply threw everything he needed to pack to him: "I'm going to take a shower. Is there any juice at home?"
Ji Qian folded the clothes slowly: "No more, but there are oranges. I will squeeze them for you later."
"Okay." Chi Ke walked halfway and suddenly changed his route to go out. "By the way, I'm out of shampoo. Can I borrow yours--"
"Don't move! I'll get it for you!" Ji Qian jumped up and threw the folded clothes aside, hugging him tightly from behind, "Well, you must be tired after sitting on the plane for so long? There's no need to go that far, just wash them and I'll get them for you."
Both bathrooms are connected to the bedroom.
Are you kidding? If we go in, won’t we be completely exposed?
Chi Ke raised his eyebrows: "Why do I feel like something is wrong with you tonight?"
"Really?" Ji Qian pretended to be dumbfounded, "Maybe I'm just too happy to see you."
There is not a single bit of falsehood in this statement.
He was really happy. If he hadn't been hiding something, he would have thrown the woman down on the bed and sucked her to his heart's content.
But Ji Qian had never acted in such a thrilling spy film, and didn’t know the truth that “too much is as bad as too little”.
It is because of being too restrained and calm that something seems wrong everywhere.
How could the normal version of Ji Qian be able to be mature and steady when she reunites with her husband after being separated for more than half a month?
"Really?" Chi Ke laughed, knowing the truth but not saying anything. "Okay, go get it then."
Ji Qian calmly returned to the crime scene.
As soon as the door closed, my legs went limp and I leaned on the closet for a long time with trembling hands to relax.
...It's so exciting.
He should…should…shouldn’t be behaving strangely, right?
Probably not.
If Chi Ke really discovered something, he would never be so easy to talk to and not pursue the matter. He would definitely come in and take a look no matter what.
Um……
Or give it a try?
Ji Qian took a long breath, opened the door a crack, raised his voice, and shouted to the other side: "Husband!"
"Yeah." Chi Ke responded calmly.
Ji Qian flirted with him and said, "Why don't you choose which shampoo to use yourself?"
"No need." Chi Ke said, "Whatever, it's fine."
really!
Ji Qian clenched his fist and said with a chuckle: "Yes!"
He just knew that he was scaring himself!
Chi Ke: “What’s wrong?”
"Nothing, nothing." Ji Qian happily took the bottle of shampoo he used that night, "Where are you?"
The room has good soundproofing. Only when I walked into Chi Ke's bedroom did I hear the faint sound of water coming from the bathroom.
Chi Ke said simply: "Come in."
Ji Qian: “…”
Ji Qian: "Come into the bathroom?"
"You can go to the kitchen." The sound of water stopped immediately, and Chi Ke said, "I'm going to the kitchen to wash my hair now."
"Hurry up and turn on the shower!" Ji Qian didn't care about being shy anymore and pushed the door open. "It's so cold, are you waiting to get sick by turning off the water when you take a shower?"
"There is floor heating." Chi Ke turned on the shower as he was told.
"It's cold, too." After all, it's not summer. Ji Qian said unhappily, "Don't you know what your physical condition is?"
When the seasons changed to autumn, this person got a throat infection because he took a shower in a cool place.
Chi Ke, who was in the wrong, was washing his face. He wiped the water off his chin when he heard this. In order to divert the conflict, he immediately evaded the main issue and put the blame on him: "Don't be so fierce."
Ji Qian sighed: "Ancestor."
The bathroom is very large, and the shower room only occupies a corner. The glass is frosted and the walls are covered with white mist.
Ji Qian couldn't see clearly what was going on inside, he could only see a vague shadow.
He knocked on the door: "Here, shampoo."
The door opened a crack, and a dripping hand stretched out from inside, palm facing up, with five fingers spread out and grasping at the air.
The knuckles were redder than usual because they had been soaked in hot water.
So cute.
Ji Qian narrowed his eyes and put his paw into his wet palm.
The hand quickly turned over and slapped him with the back of the hand facing up.
"Ouch!" Ji Qian swung his claws wildly, aggrieved, "It hurts!"
"Give it to me quickly." Chi Ke urged.
Ji Qian gave him the shampoo reluctantly.
He was used to pushing his luck further, and after a few moments he completely forgot that he was a "criminal" and should keep a low profile. He went out to get a bag of oranges and walked back and forth arrogantly outside the shower room door.
"How about I go in and help you wash it?"
"Taking a shower and washing your hair is so tiring, do you really not want my help?"
"Then I'll rub your back, what do you think?"
"Husband, why are you ignoring me?"
Just give some color and you can open a dyeing factory.
Chi Ke was annoyed by him: "Go and make some juice."
"I'm still squeezing the oranges." Ji Qian didn't dare to be lazy as he had almost finished peeling a bag of oranges.
Chi Ke doesn't like freshly squeezed juice that is thick and has residue and fruit particles. To make a glass of orange juice that satisfies him, a large bag of oranges needs to be consumed.
Before leaving, Ji Qian knocked on the shower door again: "You really don't want my help?"
Chi Ke had already stopped the water. Hearing the sound, he lifted his bangs and gently bit his back teeth.
He really didn't want to care about what happened tonight.
Ji Qian asked for it.
Ji Qian was humming a little tune while washing the long-unused squeeze juicer on the kitchen counter - this was the best juicer he had tried among the four.
However, after squeezing out the juice, it was filtered five times to make sure the taste was delicate enough before being served.
Chi Ke put a towel on his head, took the juice and left.
"Hey, hey, hey! There's no reason to throw things away after use." Ji Qian sat on the sofa with a pile of orange remains, grabbed his wrist and pulled him onto his lap, "Hold me for a while, hold me for a while and then go to sleep."
Chi Ke was too lazy to struggle and started watching short videos out of boredom.
Ji Qian's muscular left arm was wrapped around his entire waist, and with his other hand he was nibbling on the shriveled orange pulp, while his chin was resting on his shoulder as they watched together.
First video, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.
The talk was quite interesting and Chi Ke read it patiently.
The second video is about general relativity.
The blogger's description was not clear enough. Chi Ke, who had known about this for a long time, read half of it and swiped away in disgust.
The third video, Stoicism.
Chi Ke listened with great interest while browsing the comments section.
The fourth video summarizes the key points of a political science book.
After reading it, Chi Ke took two screenshots and gave a thumbs up.
The fifth video is a French test.
Chi Ke...
Ji Qian yawned quietly.
Chi Ke paused, and while he was rubbing his eyes, he switched his account to a new all-digital number.
Going back to the recommendations on the software homepage, it turns into a funny video of a Husky and a Samoyed fighting on the grass.
Ji Qian stretched his hand out from under his arm and nodded with a smile: "So cute."
Chi Ke snorted in response to this meaningless like.
Ji Qian: “Isn’t it cute?”
Chi Ke: “Cute.”
The two didn't last long.
Ji Qian performed three operations today. He went running at night and came home. He also did other activities before going to bed. In fact, he was very sleepy, but now he just couldn't bear to sleep because they were reunited after a short separation.
Chi Ke could see the fatigue in his eyes, and patted his cheek after drinking the juice: "Okay, go to bed."
Ji Qian took a deep breath on that slender neck and reluctantly let go: "Okay."
At this time, Ji Qian's sense of vigilance was zero, he had no vigilance at all, and he had completely forgotten about certain things.
He stretched lazily: "I have to go to the hospital at 8 o'clock, you just rest at home. The temperature will drop sharply later today, I will go to the mall when I come back in the evening and buy you two thick clothes. Do you like anything?"
Chi Ke folded his arms, leaned against the door frame, and raised the corners of his lips in a half-smile: "Buy two more shirts."
"Buying shirts in such a cold weather?" Ji Qian didn't understand. "You already have two full closets of shirts for inner wear. Isn't that enough?"
This is an interesting question.
Chi Ke laughed briefly: "You shouldn't ask me this."
Ji Qian was at a loss: "Hmm?"
Chi Ke raised his chin: "Is it enough for you?"
Ji Qian's mind went blank.
After a while, he said in horror: "How did you know?!"
Chi Ke lowered his eyes, unlocked his phone, called up the surveillance footage, adjusted the screen brightness to the highest, and shook it at him.
Ji Qian: “…”
So, you knew it as soon as you walked in the door?
wrong.
Wait, wait a minute.
According to the time calculation, Chi Ke should have just got off the plane at that point, or might have been in the car.
Did you turn on the surveillance camera right after you got off the plane? Or in the car?
He is a car-sick person, so it is not a big deal for him to watch the surveillance camera. Why did he have to watch it at that time? If it was to monitor his sleeping position, wouldn't it be enough to watch him for so many days before?
It makes no sense and no logic.
There is no reason to turn on the surveillance at that time.
So watching surveillance is not a purposeful behavior.
It’s a habit that is integrated into your daily life.
Just like many people will open the short video app to watch a few videos when they have nothing to do.
Ji Qian saw through the surface of the incident and directly skipped the embarrassing stage. He narrowed his eyes and asked: "How many times have you seen it in the past half month?"
Chi Ke: “Tsk.”
That's why he didn't want to pursue it in the first place.
Aren’t you sleepy?
How come you react so quickly?
He twisted the screen with his fingers, put the phone away, raised his eyebrows and said, "Guess?"
If Ji Qian guessed honestly, there would be something fishy going on. He stared at him with gritted teeth, his eyes darkening little by little.
The two looked at each other in silence.
Suddenly, there was a flash of light outside the window.
Chi Ke subconsciously glanced to the side, but caught a glimpse of Ji Qian rushing towards him through the corner of his eye. He quickly stepped back half a step, closed the door, and locked it neatly.
The whole process took no more than two seconds from start to finish.
Ji Qian knocked on the door anxiously: "Chi Ke! Open the door! A responsible man must not escape! Come out and solve the problem face to face! Don't play dirty!"
No way.
Chi Ke was in a very good mood after getting his revenge in the shower room. He kicked the door twice with his toes in response.
No matter how you look at it, it means the same thing: never open the door.
Ji Qian knocked on the door more frequently: "Chi Ke! Open the door for me!"
Chi Ke ignored him and lay back on the bed calmly.
Just kidding, if this door is opened today, you won’t be able to sleep all night.
Ji Qian: "If you don't open the door, I'll go get the key!"
Chi Ke took out the only key to the bedroom from the bedside table, took a photo, and sent it.
Three seconds later.
Ji Qian: "Fuck! Wasn't this originally on the coffee table? When did you bring it in?!"
Of course it happened quietly when I was drinking orange juice just now.
Steady adults don't fight a battle they're not prepared for.
He typed quickly with one hand.
【k: Stop knocking, go back to sleep, dear. 】
[k: If you have accounts, settle them early tomorrow. 】
The knocking on the door really stopped.
[The Great Gitzby: Do you think I can't do anything to you? ]
[The Great Gitzby: I'm going to fight back!!!]
Just threatening words.
Chi Ke didn't care.
He brushed his teeth leisurely, and before going to bed, he habitually turned on the monitoring software to help him sleep.
The software loaded in two seconds.
The screen suddenly went dark.
Chi Ke: “.”
Um?
A message popped up.
[The Great Gitzby: Are you watching the surveillance? ]
[The Great Gitzby: I covered it with my shirt~]
Chi Ke: “…”
Really fight back?
【k: Take it away. 】
[The Great Gitzby: Wow, how can you say these two words so confidently? ! ]
[The Great Gitzby: This is an invasion of privacy! Do you understand privacy?! I have every reason to be angry!]
【The Great Gitzby: But you know, I love you very much, so I will give you some golden time to coax me. 】
Chi Ke didn't reply in a hurry.
【The Great Gitzby: /Picture/】
【The Great Gitzby: I can see you are typing. 】
[The Great Gitzby: Do you have any concerns about not replying after reading the message? ]
[The Great Gitzby: Well, since you may not know how to coax me, I will give you a suggestion.]
[The Great Gitzby: Open the door now and come and sleep with me, how about that? ]
Chi Ke: “Tsk.”
【k: You are not angry, why should I coax you? 】
[The Great Gitzby: Not angry? Are you kidding! I'm really angry right now!]
【k: You didn’t feel good? 】
[The Great Gitzby: Am I a pervert? How could I possibly feel good about this? ]
【K: You got hard at the door just now. 】
【The Great Gitzby:. 】
【K: Right after I showed you the surveillance video, pretty quick.】
[The Great Gitzby: ...]
【k: Neutral, obviously. 】
[The Great Gitzby: ...]
【K: Take my shirt off, pervert. 】
