…
"……wait for me."
Chu Yang waved downstairs and hung up the phone.
Back in the office, I saw Xiaoli and Shuer eating breakfast with gusto.
There was so much breakfast: Lou Chunyue brought it, Su Yan brought it, and Su Lingxue brought it.
The coffee table was piled high with items.
Little Pear wolfed down her food, looking incredibly cute.
Shu'er ate slowly and gracefully.
Looking at the two women with completely different personalities and equally stunning beauty, and recalling the sexy and charming Chun Yue and the aloof and intellectual Xiao Yang, Chu Yang felt that having their companionship in this life would be enough.
As for Su Lingxue, putting everything else aside, if she were also recruited, Shu'er would be the first to get angry at you.
As for Su Yan...
Aren't you going to eat?
Chu Yang snapped out of his daze and saw Xiao Li handing him a steamed bun.
Shu'er handed over a bottle of milk.
"Eat." Chu Yang smiled, looked at the two of them, and then began to eat heartily.
They no longer responded with indifference, no longer competed, and no longer argued.
It seems as if they are trying to accept it.
If that's the case, wouldn't tonight be... possible?
Thinking of this, Chu Yang could barely suppress the smile on his face.
He cleared his throat tactically and said slowly, "After dinner, I will continue to handle my work. There will be a routine inspection at nine o'clock. Find something to do to pass the time. If you need anything, come to me anytime."
“…Okay.” Xiaoli and Shuer replied at the same time.
"And let's not argue," Chu Yang added.
Xiao Li and Shu'er rolled their eyes at him at the same time, then their eyes met again before quickly looking away.
Chu Yang knew they needed time to prepare themselves mentally, so he wasn't in a hurry. After breakfast, he went to handle the work related to Cool Cat.
Then I saw them dividing up the tasks and cleaning up the company.
One swept and the other mopped; they worked together quite well.
Chu Yang didn't stop them. Being locked up was boring enough, so they had to find something to do.
At nine o'clock, medical staff came to conduct routine disinfection and inspection.
At 11 o'clock, Chu Yang finished his work and looked around, only to find Xiao Li and Shu'er playing Go.
If you don't have a chessboard or pieces, just draw grids on paper, one with a black pen and one with a red pen, and you'll start a new game.
The battle was quite intense. Chu Yang picked up the paper and counted the points. The score was currently 20 to 19, with Shu'er in the lead.
At this moment, the two men stared intently at the chessboard, their expressions extremely serious, as if the loser would have to pay a heavy price.
This made Chu Yang a little nervous.
I thought to myself, "Are these two using him as a wager? Is it really necessary to go that far over a game of Connect Four?"
"Excuse me, but you two didn't gamble on anything, did you? Twenty rounds?" he asked tentatively.
Xiao Li and Shu'er ignored him and continued to focus on their game.
Chu Yang looked at the chessboard and realized that Xiao Li seemed to be about to lose.
Sure enough, when Shu'er placed the last circle, she connected five pieces.
"No!" Xiaoli cried out in pain, her face full of dejection.
Shu'er smiled victoriously: "You lost. You must honor your bet and accept your punishment."
Chu Yang quickly asked, "What promise? You two mustn't be messing around."
"Fine, I'll admit defeat! I, Chen Li, can afford to lose!" Xiao Li stood up angrily.
Chu Yang said nervously, "No, we can't be so hasty. Let's discuss this carefully, talk things over, and have a proper conversation..."
Before she could finish speaking, Xiaoli walked to the side and started doing squats.
Chu Yang blinked: "...So this is the punishment."
Shu'er suppressed a laugh: "What did you think it was?"
"You thought you were using me as a bet, that whoever lost would abandon me?" Chu Yang said frankly.
“You really scared me.” He breathed a sigh of relief.
Shu'er's gaze softened, but she quickly regained her composure: "That is indeed a good idea."
Xiao Li stopped, a little excited: "This is much better than squatting, let's bet on this!"
"Stop it, you guys, you can't do this!" Chu Yang said, both amused and exasperated.
Shu'er ignored him and urged Xiao Li, "You have to make fifty, don't be lazy."
Little Pear wrinkled her nose at her: "Hmph, fine, I'll do it!"
After saying that, he continued to squat down, huffing and puffing.
To be honest, the way she squatted down was really undulating, and Chu Yang couldn't take his eyes off her immediately.
"Hmph." Shu'er kicked him.
Chu Yang chuckled awkwardly, "You can squat too, I'll watch with you, that'll make sure it's fair."
"Dream on." Shu'er turned her head away and ignored him.
Not long after, Xiaoli finished fifty squats and was so tired that she sat on the ground panting. She struggled to her feet.
"Let's go again, I refuse to believe it! This time it's best two out of three, I'm going to make you squat!"
Shu'er smiled confidently: "Okay, let's go."
Chu Yang watched from the sidelines and, realizing that no one intended to use him as a bet, breathed a slight sigh of relief.
It's a healthy and enjoyable activity involving both Gomoku (five-in-a-row) and squatting.
He saw hope for harmony again.
Just then, Zhou Yang called and asked him to come downstairs to get lunch.
I grabbed a few bags of trash and went downstairs, where I saw Zhou Yang carrying a large lunchbox at the door.
"Big plate chicken, but the restaurant owner forgot to provide disposable bowls." Zhou Yang winked at him.
Chu Yang immediately understood: "Sister Xiao Yang is so clever."
"What are they doing?" Zhou Yang asked.
"I play Gomoku," Chu Yang said.
"Oh? Looks like things are going well." Zhou Yang visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
God knows how terrified she was that Shu'er would leave.
Chu Yang knew what she was thinking and said softly, "Don't worry, I won't abandon any of you."
