Chapter 88 Sense of Crisis



After half a month of day and night thinking, he was finally comforted. Gu Chijin didn't want to go to the living room at all at this moment.

If the situation didn't allow it, he would have wanted to hang on Shi Qi.

"No need to rest. I've been writing reports in the army these past few days and I've had enough rest. I want to be busy and stretch my legs."

Gu Chijin slowly washed the vegetables with his large, movable hand placed in the cold water, his eyes fixed on Shi Qi.

"Okay. Just do some work. If you feel tired, go out and rest."

Gu Chijin is a grown man, but there is no need to watch him like an egg.

Shi Qi gave instructions and turned to cut vegetables and prepare seasonings.

"A few days ago, I actually wanted to write a letter and ask Jiang Chen to bring it back, but my boss was pressing me for a report, so I didn't write it."

Staring at Shi Qi's beautiful profile, Gu Chijin suddenly spoke.

Shi Qi was chopping vegetables with a kitchen knife in hand. When he heard his voice, he nodded subconsciously:

"It's okay, I asked Brother Jiang a few times before because I was worried that something might happen to you.

Since you have no problem, there is no need to write back."

Shi Qi answered so calmly that Gu Chijin felt a little uncomfortable.

“Actually, I wrote you a letter on the day I was injured.

But the letter was held back by the leader and no one sent it back."

Shi Qi didn't know about this and was curious about what Gu Chijin wrote:

"What do you want to tell me in your letter?"

Gu Chijin turned his head away, pretending to wash vegetables, his ears gradually turning red:

"Nothing, just asking if you're okay at home."

In the letter, in addition to asking about Shi Qi's recent situation, Gu Chijin also added a few words expressing his longing for her.

He didn't think anything of it when he wrote it, but now when he thinks back on it, he feels a little ashamed.

But I couldn't help but wonder what Shi Qizhen's reaction would be if he saw those words.

Hearing that it was just some ordinary things, Shi Qi looked away in disappointment.

"I'm fine at home. Apart from being busy, there's not much else to do."

"I heard from Jiang Chen that you lived directly in the city one day?

The store is so busy, do you need me to help out these few days?"

Gu Chijin pretended to be natural and leaned towards her, asking questions calmly.

Although he was in the army these days, he would ask Jiang Chen about Shi Qi's situation every day.

Of course I know that she didn't go home one day some time ago.

Fearing that Shi Qi would often live in the store in the future, Gu Chijin continued his previous words and said quickly:

"I heard from other soldiers in the army that things in the city have been a bit uneasy lately. If you're not busy, it's best to go back to the military compound early."

He stole a glance at Shi Qi's face, seeing no resistance on her face, and continued to suggest:

"I injured my shoulder and my boss asked me to rest at home for a while.

I can't stay idle at home, so why don't I just go to the city to pick you up every day?"

Shi Qi sensed something was wrong and gave Gu Chijin a strange look.

Seeing Gu Chijin straightening his back involuntarily under his gaze, Shi Qi felt a sense of absurdity.

Who would have thought that the villain Gu Chijin would ignore her as soon as she arrived here.

Today, I will carefully say that I will pick her up.

Shi Qi doesn't want to get involved in the mess between him and the male and female protagonists. She still has dreams of designing and becoming a rich woman.

If she were to live with Gu Chijin now and fight with the male and female protagonists in the future, wouldn’t her dream of independence be shattered?

Besides, she and Gu Chijin had only spent a short time together and didn't know each other well.

If you make a wrong choice in the heat of the moment, do you still want to live with it for the rest of your life?

After much thought, Shi Qi sealed his heart and directly refused:

"Thank you for your kindness, but forget about the pick-up. Sister Ji has been working for me lately, and we go in and out together morning and night. It would be uncomfortable for you to pick her up."

Gu Chijin's eyes dimmed, and his voice was aggrieved:

"Can I bring you lunch at noon?"

Shi Qi almost cut his hand when the knife he was cutting vegetables with went astray. He glared at Gu Chijin in frustration.

Please, you are the biggest villain in this article.

A cruel and ruthless person who harms others without blinking an eye.

Asking someone to bring her food in such a cute tone really makes one's heart beat faster.

With a hardened heart, Shiqi continued to chop vegetables, his tone unchanged:

"You have to take a bus to get to the city from the Military Family Residence, and your hands are not convenient, so I think forget it.

During this period, my wife Ji and I have gotten used to eating at the restaurant next door, and we think it’s pretty good.

You won’t have to do these things.”

After being rejected one after another, Gu Chijin's face turned dark.

She felt that Shi Qi no longer needed her. If things continued like this, she would soon have to find a house in the city and never come back.

Gu Chijin stood at the kitchen door with his fists clenched. His high-spirited mood had disappeared, replaced by uneasiness.

no.

He must find a way to make himself feel important in front of her.

The two of them were rarely together and had no time to develop feelings. If this continued, it would be bad if Shi Qi was determined to divorce by the time they agreed on the divorce date.

Shi Qi had no idea what was going on in Gu Chijin's mind. Seeing him standing in front of the sink like a pillar, he just chased him away:

"Go sit out for a while. The meal will be ready soon. I'll cook."

I turned around reluctantly and walked out. When I reached the kitchen entrance, Gu Chijin didn't move.

Shi Qi pretended not to see him and continued to pour oil and cook.

The aroma of the vegetables was brought out by the oil, and Shiqi skillfully prepared two dishes and a soup.

Fifteen minutes later, the two started eating.

It had been a long time since Gu Chijin had eaten Shi Qi’s cooking, so he had a particularly good appetite tonight.

Eat two large bowls of rice with simple stir-fried cowpeas and stir-fried water spinach.

After the meal, I also drank a small bowl of tomato and egg soup.

Looking at the two empty plates on the table, Shi Qi was very suspicious that the army had not given Gu Chijin any food.

After dinner, Shiqi went to the kitchen to clean up the dishes.

Gu Chijin took a broom and swept the fallen rice grains and dust in the living room.
