In order to win the new project developed in the west of the city, Fu Chen has recently tried his best.
He frequently attended various social events, got drunk every day, and fell asleep as soon as he got home.
That night, Fu Chen drank too much again, and Secretary Chen had to work hard to help him into the house.
"Mr. Fu, please slow down." Secretary Chen carefully helped Fu Chen to the sofa. Seeing his uncomfortable look, he felt very uncomfortable.
"Where's Zhiru? Ask her to pour me a glass of water." Fu Chen frowned and said impatiently.
"Miss Xu is already asleep." Secretary Chen said.
"Are you asleep? What time are you asleep?" Fu Chen opened his eyes and looked at the time. It was only ten o'clock in the evening.
"Go wake her up and ask her to get me a glass of water."
"Mr. Fu, I think you should stop bothering Miss Xu. She is not in good health and needs more rest." Secretary Chen advised.
"What's wrong with me asking her to pour a glass of water? She is my girlfriend, isn't it her duty to take care of me?" Fu Chen's voice rose a few degrees, and he was obviously a little angry.
"Okay, don't be angry, I'll go call her right away." Secretary Chen had no choice but to go to the bedroom to call Xu Zhiru.
When Xu Zhiru heard Secretary Chen's voice, she reluctantly got up from the bed.
She opened the bedroom door and saw Fu Chen lying on the sofa with an uncomfortable look on his face. She suddenly felt a little annoyed.
"A Chen, why did you drink so much again?" Xu Zhiru walked to Fu Chen and asked with pretended concern.
"It's all because of that new project." Fu Chen said weakly with his eyes closed.
"Lie down for a while, I'll make you a cup of honey water." Xu Zhiru said, turned around and went to the kitchen to make a cup of honey water and handed it to Fu Chen.
"Drink some water first, I'll run you a bath." Xu Zhiru stuffed the cup of water into Fu Chen's hand, and then went to the bathroom to run the bath water.
Fu Chen drank a few sips of honey water and felt his stomach feel better.
He looked at Xu Zhiru's busy figure and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
"Zhi Ru is still good to me." Fu Chen couldn't help but murmur.
"Okay, the water is ready, go take a shower." Xu Zhiru came out of the bathroom and said to Fu Chen.
"Um."
Fu Chen nodded, got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Xu Zhiru watched Fu Chen walk into the bathroom, and the smile on her face slowly disappeared.
She walked to the sofa, sat down, picked up her phone, and started browsing her Moments.
After a while, Fu Chen came out of the shower and saw Xu Zhiru sitting on the sofa playing with her cell phone, with no intention of going to sleep.
"Zhiru, aren't you going to sleep?" Fu Chen asked.
"I'm not sleepy yet. Let me play with my phone for a while." Xu Zhiru said without raising her head.
"Oh, then you should go to bed early and don't stay up late." Fu Chen said, and then went back to the bedroom to sleep.
Xu Zhiru watched Fu Chen walk into the bedroom with a sneer on her lips.
She put down her phone, got up and went to the kitchen to pour a glass of red wine, then returned to the living room and sat on the sofa.
Fu Chen lay in bed, but couldn't fall asleep.
He felt a knot in his stomach and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He remembered that when Ning Nanxue was around, every time he drank too much, she would take good care of him.
She would make sobering soup for herself, give herself a massage, and stay by her side until she fell asleep.
But now, Xu Zhiru would only make herself a cup of honey water and then play with her mobile phone, not caring about her own life or death.
The more Fu Chen thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He turned over, buried his head in the pillow, and forced himself not to think about these things.
However, Ning Nanxue's figure kept appearing in his mind.
He thought of Ning Nanxue's kindness, her gentleness, her thoughtfulness, and everything she had done for this family.
Fu Chen sat up suddenly. He felt that he couldn't go on like this.
However, when he saw the empty bed beside him, he realized that Ning Nanxue was gone.
Fu Chen fell back onto the bed dejectedly, tears rolling down his eyes.
He suddenly felt ridiculous. He was the one who pushed Ning Nanxue away. What right did he have to save the relationship now?
On the other side, Ning Nanxue was busy in the kitchen.
She is researching new recipes and wants to make some new dishes for Jiang Tingchen.
Jiang Tingchen leaned against the kitchen door frame, watching Ning Nanxue's busy figure, his heart filled with warmth.
"Xue'er, what are you doing?" Jiang Tingchen asked softly.
"I'm researching a new recipe." Ning Nanxue said without turning her head, "I want to make something delicious for you."
"You don't have to work so hard." Jiang Tingchen walked to Ning Nanxue and wanted to hug her, but finally retracted his hand, "I can eat anything I want."
"That won't work." Ning Nanxue said.
"You are a patient now, you need to take good care of your nutrition."
"You just spoil me too much." Jiang Tingchen said with a smile.
"I'm willing to spoil you, what's wrong?" Ning Nanxue said with a smile.
"Silly boy." Ning Nanxue smiled and continued to work.
Jiang Tingchen looked at Ning Nanxue's profile, his heart filled with love.
He thought that it was enough to just stay with her, watch over her, take care of her and protect her.
After a while, Ning Nanxue finally prepared the meal.
Jiang Tingchen helped bring the food to the table, and the two sat down to eat together.
"Xue'er, your cooking skills are getting better and better." Jiang Tingchen praised while eating.
"Really?"
Ning Nanxue smiled shyly.
"Of course it's real." Jiang Tingchen said, "It tastes even better than what the chefs in five-star hotels make."
"It's not as exaggerated as you say." Ning Nanxue said, "But as long as you like it."
"Yeah, I like it." Jiang Tingchen nodded, "As long as it's made by you, I like it."
The two of them ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
In the next few days, Fu Chen continued to get drunk every day.
Xu Zhiru just took care of him as a routine every day and then went about her own business.
Secretary Chen couldn't bear it anymore, so he found Fu Chen and advised him to take care of his health.
"Mr. Fu, you can't drink like this anymore." Secretary Chen said.
"Your stomach is already in poor condition. If you continue drinking like this, you'll have problems."
"Don't worry about my business." Fu Chen said impatiently, "Just do your own thing."
"But, Mr. Fu..."
"Enough!" Fu Chen scolded.
"Just do whatever I tell you to do. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
"..." Secretary Chen sighed helplessly and had to shut up.
That day, Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen went to the supermarket to shop together.
The two were talking and laughing, looking very close.
Jiang Tingchen pushed the shopping cart and carefully helped Ning Nanxue select ingredients.
"Xue'er, what do you want to eat?" Jiang Tingchen asked, "Let me cook today. You've worked hard."
"I want to eat the braised pork you made." Ning Nanxue said.
"Okay, then let's buy some pork belly." Jiang Tingchen said, and began to select carefully.
