Chapter 43 Chapter 43 "Do you really like me?"...
Xia Ji hesitated for a moment, and waited until he finished the call before saying, "I'm done. Do you want to wash now? Or are you still unfinished with work?"
"Wash now." Si Cheng went to collect the laptop on the small round table.
"What time is the flight tomorrow?" Xia Tian was lying on the bed wearing a blue and white patchwork short-sleeved shirt and shorts pajamas.
"The flight hasn't been booked yet." Si Cheng went to the closet to get his clothes. His pajamas were a black and white short-sleeved shirt and shorts, the same style he wore in summer.
"Huh? Haven't booked your tickets yet?" Xia Ji leaned sideways, supporting his head with one hand, puzzled. His slender arms and legs had beautiful, porcelain-white skin.
"No rush, we can play for two more days. Do you have anything to do?" Si Cheng asked.
"It's okay." Xia Ji watched him go into the bathroom, full of questions.
Ten minutes later, Si Cheng came out, washed his hair, and was getting a hair dryer.
"Is everything okay in your company?" Xia Ji asked again.
"And there's my dad. He can't always come to me for everything."
Xia Ji made a six and watched him blow his hair.
Short hair, blow-dried in just a few strokes.
Sitting on the bed, leaning against the headboard, Xia Ji lay beside him, her hands groping around for a while, sometimes pulling off his pants, sometimes pulling his leg hair, "Do you want to do it?"
"Let's not do it tomorrow when we go out to play." Si Cheng grabbed his hand and patted his stomach, while he picked up his phone with one hand, not knowing what he was looking at.
Xia Ji leaned over to take a look and found that he was actually looking at the trending searches on Weibo. Unfortunately, there was nothing big going on today and Xia Ji was not interested at all.
He caressed Si Cheng's wide trouser legs and ran his hands up. "It's a little bit in."
Looking up, I saw Si Cheng, who had no shame at all, as if it was all a habit that had been acquired over time.
"No matter." Si Cheng grabbed his hand.
Xia Ji snorted and glared at him.
Si Cheng looked down at him and touched his head. Xia Tian seemed to be encouraged and crawled over.
When they woke up, the sun was already high in the sky. They were both naked, sleeping on their sides. Si Cheng was hugging him tightly from behind, his face pressed against the back of his neck. Xia Liang was wrapped around their waists.
The cell phone was on the bedside table. Xia Ji stretched out his hand to grab it, waking up Si Cheng.
"It's eleven o'clock." Xia Tian unlocked the phone screen.
Si Cheng hugged him and nuzzled him, his voice lazy and low, his chest vibrating slightly against his back, "Well...it's time for lunch."
I stayed in bed for a while, stayed up late for a while, washed up and went downstairs at around twelve o'clock.
The nanny asked them what they wanted to eat. Xia Tian had eaten too much hot pot last night and was not very hungry at the moment. She wanted to eat something light, so she made some millet porridge and stir-fried seasonal vegetables.
Si Cheng did have his meal. The nanny made him tofu in tomato sauce, stir-fried beef, and a bowl of local chicken soup.
She made the chicken soup in the morning and it was just right for lunch.
In the afternoon, the two went out for a walk again. Xia bought two watches, which were couple's watches. He originally wanted to buy a bracelet, but Sicheng never wears bracelets, always watches.
"Thank you, just these two models, pack them up for me." Xia Ji said.
The watch wasn't very expensive; it was simply a summer favorite. He bought a lot of couple watches, clothes, dolls, and accessories. He basically grabbed anything he liked, but whether he wore it or not depended on his mood.
"Okay." The salesgirl put the watch back on the tray, took out the box and started packing.
Si Cheng was leaning on the counter, looking at stocks on his mobile phone. Xia Ji leaned over to take a look, then moved away. He looked around bored for a while, and when he turned around, he heard a familiar name.
"Su Chun, there seems to be something wrong with my cash register computer. Can you come and help me take a look?"
Not far away was a fast fashion brand clothing store. Two young, tall and beautiful girls were standing at the door. They looked to be around 20 years old and seemed to be college students working part-time.
Hearing the shouting, one of the girls with short hair immediately returned to the store.
She has short hair with refreshing straight bangs and shoulder length, a tall and slender figure, fair skin, and is 172 cm tall, which is considered tall among girls. She has a small, oval face with a childish look. She has a little bit of baby fat when she smiles, and her eyes are very round and big. She looks innocent and cute when she looks at people.
Xia Ji was panicked for a moment, his fingers gripped the edge of the counter, and he subconsciously took two steps after the girl.
Su Chun? The white moonlight after Si Cheng's rebirth in the original story?
What a coincidence?
Si Cheng immediately noticed that he was in a bad mood, "What's wrong? You look so bad."
He leaned closer to him worriedly to take a look, but Xia Tian didn't dare to look him in the eye.
"Are you feeling unwell?" Si Cheng grabbed his hand, "Your hands are so cold too.
"It seems like they will take a while to pack. You wait here for a while. I'll go shopping somewhere else." Xia Ji forcefully pushed away Si Cheng's hand and walked straight to the fast fashion brand clothing store.
Unexpectedly, after only two steps, he was caught by Si Cheng again. "They pack it very quickly, it will be ready soon."
"What are you angry about?"
At this moment, the saleswoman came over with two paper bags. "The watches are ready. How would you like to pay?"
Si Cheng grabbed Xia Ji while pulling out his wallet from the inside pocket of his jacket. He pulled out a black card and handed it over. "No password required, just swipe it."
The salesgirl was surprised. This mall wasn't particularly high-end, with no luxury brands. This kind of card was rarely seen here. She took it with both hands, swiped the card, had Sicheng sign the receipt, and then put it in a paper bag. She smiled and said, "Goodbye, and welcome back next time."
"What's up? Where did you just say you wanted to go shopping?" Si Cheng asked, holding the bag, but Xia Ji was standing still again.
Xia Tian took a deep breath, but couldn't say what he wanted to say. Finally, he said, "I feel like I'm going to die. Hold me for a while."
Xia had always loved talking nonsense before. He didn't mean to say that he was really going to die, he was just expressing his discomfort.
Si Cheng quickly hugged the man, cupping the back of his head with his hands and pressing him into his arms. He found that his whole body was cold. "What's wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Xia Tian rested her chin on his shoulder, looking quite obedient because she was a little weak. There was a 10cm height difference between them, and when they hugged, Si Cheng could completely envelop him and lock him in his arms.
"Thank you."
Si Cheng raised an eyebrow at this, and his worries faded a lot. Xia Ji rarely said thank you to him, and if he did, it meant he was being weird.
"I want to go to the clothing store over there." Xia Ji pointed to the clothing store of the fast fashion brand.
"Okay." Si Cheng's gaze also shifted to the clothing store, and he didn't find anything wrong.
This clothing store is very big and does business with young people. The staff are all young and beautiful boys and girls. Today is a weekday afternoon and there are not many customers in the store, only a few scattered here and there.
There is a row of cash register computers behind the beige counter on the innermost side. There are many customers during peak hours, and it is considered an Internet celebrity store.
Xia Ji pretended to walk around, leaving Si Cheng aside, and quietly approached the counter. She stood near the clothes on the counter, pretending to choose clothes, but actually listening to them talking.
Su Chun was standing not far from him, and there was a female clerk standing with Su Chun, both of them bent over in front of the computer screen.
"That's it. You're mistaken here."
"You should familiarize yourself with this system first."
"If you don't understand something, stop messing around and just call me."
"knew."
Su Chun stood up, left the counter, and passed by Xia Ji sideways.
Xia Ji looked back at her and called out, "Su Chun?"
The short-haired girl stopped and looked at him puzzledly, "Do you need any help?"
They all wore name tags with their names written on them, but Xia Tian never looked at them.
Xia Tian was wearing a hat and a mask, so the girl didn't recognize who he was.
This summer I got to see her up close. The girl has a small brown mole on the tip of her nose. It’s very small and can only be seen up close when she’s wearing makeup, but it’s very cute.
He was basically certain that this was the girl who would become Si Cheng's white moonlight in the original text, Su Chun.
Xia Ji pursed his lips and smiled beneath his mask, but the smile didn't reach his eyes and no one noticed. "It's okay. I'm just taking a look."
Su Chun nodded, assuming he was a fan. The shop assistants here were pretty and considered minor internet celebrities. This clothing store was using them to attract customers.
Familiar customers will come to their favorite clerk and queue up specifically with her to check out.
Watching her leave, Xia Tian breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he lowered his eyes, before he had time to feel sad, Si Cheng appeared behind him and patted him on the shoulder.
"Choose clothes???" Si Cheng took the hanger with the girl's pink suspenders hanging on it from Xia Ji's hand. It was not like taking it, but more like snatching it, and held it in front of Xia Ji.
Xia Tian was completely stunned, her fair ears flushed red. She snatched the suspenders from his hand and hung them back on the rack. "What are you doing? Didn't I tell you to sit on the sofa and wait for me?"
"I haven't seen you for a long time, and you're already complaining about me. Why did you buy this? Are you going to wear it yourself?" Si Cheng said deliberately.
"Shut up, shut up! I just took the wrong thing!" Xia Ji grabbed his hand and whispered.
Suddenly a voice came from behind, "Hello, are you Xia Tian?"
Xia Ji was startled and looked back, and saw a boy standing behind them.
He had dyed chestnut hair, fair skin, and gentle eyes. He was wearing a loose T-shirt and jeans. He was about the same height as Xia Tian, and had a clothing store clerk badge on his chest with Zhou Jia written on it.
"No." Xia Ji quickly pulled Si Cheng away.
Zhou Jia stood there, watching them walk away. "Isn't that right? Who's the person next to him? Ding Sheng?"
"Jia Jia, what are you doing standing there? Come over and iron the clothes." Zhou Chun shouted in the direction of the storage room.
"I understand, sister." Zhou Jiahui smiled.
After leaving the clothing store, Xia Tian looked back with lingering fear. For some reason, he felt panicky.
Back at the red house villa by the sea, the nanny had already prepared dinner, but Xia Tian had no appetite. He held the chopsticks and picked up the rice grains one by one.
He looked at Si Cheng, then lowered his head, looked at Si Cheng again, then lowered his head again, leaving Si Cheng confused.
"What's wrong? You don't eat well." Si Cheng said.
Xia Tian mustered up his courage, clenched his chopsticks, and said, "I want to ask you something."
"explain."
"Do you really like me?"
