When traveling on business, you always have to pack up.
Si Mochen didn't say anything, turned around and went back to his room to put away a few clothes. As for Xia Zhichu, he went to take a shower first, then went to put away the clothes on the balcony. After he was done, he said good night to Si Mochen and lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
But the next day, she got up earlier than usual.
When Si Mochen woke up, Xia Zhichu had already prepared breakfast. It was less than 5:30 in the morning.
Si Mochen saw that her hair was not done yet and she was still wearing pajamas, obviously she had gotten up in a hurry.
It was all his fault. He shouldn't have said the time was so early. Given Xia Zhichu's personality, she must have set the alarm and got up on time just to see him off.
"Eat your breakfast. I'll go change my clothes and take you downstairs later."
When she untied her apron, Si Mochen happened to look over there.
I happened to look inside and found that she was not wearing any underwear.
Si Mochen's ears felt hot and he looked away uncomfortably.
When two people live together, there will be some embarrassing things. Si Mochen has never experienced these, and he has little contact with women, so it is inevitable that he will feel uncomfortable.
However, Xia Zhichu didn't notice his abnormality, and turned around with force, shaking a few times, which almost made Si Mochen bleed from his nose.
Fortunately, she went into the room quickly and was fully dressed when she came out.
At this time, Si Mochen had also finished his breakfast.
The two went downstairs to the basement. When buying this house, Si Mochen also bought a parking space.
"No need to send it off."
Si Mochen stepped on the accelerator and signaled Xia Zhichu to go back.
"Well, have a nice trip, I'll wait for you to come home."
Xia Zhichu waved at him.
Si Mochen drove away and looked back through the rearview mirror. Xia Zhichu was still standing there for a long time.
At that moment, he felt complicated.
He started to be independent at a very young age, and went to and from school by himself in elementary school. When he was sent abroad, no one came to see him off. He has come to where he is today with his own abilities over the years, and there is no one else around him except Yan Sen.
Everyone had high hopes for him and tried to control his life. No one ever asked him if he was tired, let alone said a word of concern.
But Xia Zhichu made him feel the warmth of home for the first time, and even made him look forward to returning home.
If he didn't want her to get involved in the family disputes too early, perhaps he would take her to meet his family when he returned this time.
The car quickly disappeared from sight. Xia Zhichu didn't stay long and took the elevator back home.
After breakfast, I cleaned up the dishes and washed the clothes I took off last night.
She only washes her own clothes, and Si Mochen will take care of them himself, so she doesn't have to worry about it.
After washing the clothes, I cleaned the house. It was almost seven o'clock now.
Xia Zhichu packed up simply and went out to work with her bag.
Although my home is close to Peak Group, it still takes 20 to 30 minutes to walk there. If the bus goes smoothly, it will normally take 15 minutes to get there.
Xia Zhichu thought that when he got his salary, he would buy himself an electric car so that it would be convenient for him to go to and from get off work.
I don’t know what’s going on. It’s easy to get a taxi on weekdays, but today it’s strange. I’ve been waiting for twenty minutes and the car hasn’t come yet.
Xia Zhichu thought that it was probably because he came out late.
Thinking that it was still early, Xia Zhichu decided to walk to the company and familiarize himself with the road so that he could ride a bicycle later.
After walking for a while, a car suddenly stopped beside her.
"Zhi Chu!"
Someone called her from inside the car.
Xia Zhichu turned his head and saw that it was Liu Jiajia.
"Where are you going? How are you going to get there?" Liu Jiajia asked.
Xia Zhichu smiled at him and said, "It's hard to get a bus today. I plan to walk to work."
"Where is your company? How about I give you a ride?"
Liu Jiajia had just returned from sending her children off and happened to see Xia Zhichu walking on the roadside, so she drove over to take a look.
Xia Zhichu said, "Peak Group is not far from here, about 20 to 30 minutes' walk."
Twenty to thirty minutes is not far for a normal person.
Liu Jiajia still insisted on giving her a ride, and Xia Zhichu couldn't refuse her kindness, so she got in the car.
When he saw Liu Jiajia's belly pressed against the steering wheel, Xia Zhichu reminded, "Jiajia, you're a month old, it's better not to drive. It's too dangerous."
If I brake suddenly, my stomach would hit the steering wheel. It’s scary to think about it.
Liu Jiajia, however, acted relaxed, "It's okay, I also drove the car until I was pregnant with my eldest son."
Xia Zhichu looked at her without saying anything.
The last time we met at the mall, she was shopping for maternity supplies by herself, carrying so many things, and Liu Jiajia's husband did not show up the whole time.
The key point is that Liu Jiajia has to pick up and drop off Dabao while she is pregnant, and she also has to do housework on weekdays.
The belly is getting bigger day by day, who knows when the baby will be born.
Liu Jiajia is alone at home. If something happens to her, who will take her to the hospital?
"We still need to be careful. It's better to be safe than sorry." Xia Zhichu was a little worried.
Liu Jiajia gave her a reassuring smile and said, "In this world, there's a saying that goes, 'A mother is strong.' I will take good care of myself and protect my child."
Xia Zhichu nodded, she believed in the power of this sentence.
I drove very fast and arrived downstairs of the company in a few moments.
Xia Zhichu thanked Liu Jiajia and told her to drive carefully and enter the company when she got off the car.
At this time, Liu Jiajia stopped her and said, "Zhichu, I didn't expect you to work at Peak Group. I heard it's hard to get into this company, but you are so outstanding, nothing can stump you.
On the other hand, I don’t know how many years it will take for me to give birth to this child. By then I will be too old and it will be really difficult for me to return to the workplace.”
After saying that, she sighed deeply.
Xia Zhichu actually sympathized with Liu Jiajia. She was carrying the whole family by herself, her husband didn't know how to understand her, and she was tied up with two children. It was really difficult to drop everything and go into the workplace.
"Jia Jia, I understand how you feel. For now, take care of yourself first and then think about your work."
Xia Zhichu could only comfort her. After all, Liu Jiajia was different from herself. She had children, but she didn't.
Although I have been divorced, I have no worries.
Liu Jiajia hummed, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, why were you near Yujing Garden just now? Do you live nearby?"
Xia Zhichu hummed, "My husband bought a house in Yujing Garden and just moved in a few days ago."
"Yujing Garden, the house prices are tens of thousands higher. I didn't expect Chen Liang to be doing so well."
Liu Jiajia looked at Xia Zhichu with envy, but she didn't know what she said, leaving Xia Zhichu speechless for a moment.
She didn't know how to tell what had happened to her. After thinking about it, she decided not to say anything.
Liu Jiajia added, "My home is in Shuzhuang Community near Yujing Garden. Let's get together when we have time."
Xia Zhichu nodded.
