The phone was found in the office.
There were more than a dozen missed calls, all from Zhou Yang.
He quickly dialed back, and the call was answered after one ring.
"You damn monkey, you finally answered the phone!"
"I left my phone in the office, Sister Xiaoyang."
"You're at the company? That's great! Shu'er found you, right?" Zhou Yang visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh no," Chu Yang said with a wry smile, "We found her, but Xiao Li is also here."
Zhou Yang was taken aback: "Huh? Then you guys..."
"We ran into them, the boat capsized, and the two of them are furious," Chu Yang said.
Zhou Yang was silent for two seconds: "...Serves you right, now you're suffering."
"Sister, please don't do this. I'm in deep trouble right now. You have to help me."
"How can I help you? I can't even get through the door, and Shu'er isn't answering my calls."
"She's angry with you because you helped me keep my relationship with Xiaoli a secret."
"You confessed to Shu'er?"
"Yes, I told her everything, including Chunyue's matter."
"...Alright, then there's nothing I can do for you. You'll have to rely on yourself. How are Shu'er and Xiao Li now?"
"They each have their own room and are completely ignoring me."
"...You haven't eaten yet, have you?"
"No, but Xiaoli drank all the chicken soup that Shuer gave me."
"ha……"
"Sister, you're still laughing, but I'm in so much pain right now."
"You deserve what you've done, hmph... Alright, I'll bring you food. Call Sister Chunyue and see if she can help."
"..."
After hanging up the phone, Chu Yang was about to call Lou Chunyue when his phone rang again; it was her calling.
"Sister Chunyue."
"The boat capsized, I know. Xiao Li told me everything. Do you know how heartbroken she was?"
"I know, I even got kicked by her, but not as hard as last time."
"...This day was bound to come sooner or later. The current situation might actually be a good thing. At least they're all staying at the company for the time being. Use these few days to comfort them. Whether you succeed or not depends on yourself."
"Then tell me, do you think Xiaoli might accept it?"
"It's hard to say. She's furious right now. It's good enough that she hasn't given you a good beating. I'll talk to her again once she calms down. You should try to appease both of them. If it works out, it's your good fortune. If it doesn't, you can't blame anyone else."
"……I see."
After hanging up the phone, Chu Yang fell into deep thought.
Having come up with no good solution yet, he had no choice but to give up and then began to take inventory of the company's supplies.
He had actually prepared for the lockdown due to the pandemic long ago. The company had plenty of food, snacks, drinks, and toiletries. Even without any deliveries, the three of them could easily stay locked up for a month.
The company provides sleeping rooms and shower rooms, so you can live a very comfortable life without even leaving the premises.
A little while later, the phone rang.
"You damn monkey, come down and get your food!"
"Okay."
Chu Yang arrived at the door downstairs and saw Zhou Yang standing outside the cordon, waving at him with a package of food in her hand.
A medical worker stepped forward to take the bag, then turned back and unlocked the door.
He handed the bag in and asked, "None of you have a fever, do you?"
Chu Yang took the bag: "No, everything is normal."
The medical staff said, "We will come inside at nine o'clock tomorrow morning to carry out a thorough disinfection and then conduct examinations for you. Relax and don't worry too much."
"Thanks." Before the door closed, Chu Yang called out to Zhou Yang outside, "Don't worry, sis, I'll handle it."
Zhou Yang nodded: "Don't let them go hungry, I'll bring them food again tomorrow morning!"
The door was locked again. Chu Yang waved to her and went upstairs.
Back at the company, I went to the break room and knocked on Shu'er's door first.
I knocked several times, but there was no response.
"Shu'er, dinner's ready." He called out twice, but there was still no response.
Having no other choice, he could only leave a meal at the door.
"I left it at the door, come and get it yourself."
Then we moved to another lounge.
"Little Pear, dinner's ready."
"I'm not eating, I'm not hungry!"
"Then I'll leave it at the door. You can take it yourself if you're hungry."
"..."
Another meal was placed in the table, and Chu Yang returned to his office to eat alone.
After eating for a while, the phone rang. It was Shen Nansheng calling.
"Has the company been shut down?"
"Yes, brother, Chunyue told you?"
"How could you not tell me about something this big? You little rascal, now you're in for a beating, aren't you? Hehe!"
"Big brother, you seem very happy?"
"Happy my foot, I'm worried."
"Don't worry, I'll take good care of Xiaoli, and I'll also handle the company's affairs."
“That’s not what I’m worried about. I want to give you a serious warning.”
"Please speak, brother."
"Either you're capable of handling both, but if you dare to abandon Xiaoli when you can only choose one, don't blame me for turning my back on you ruthlessly. We won't even be brothers anymore. I've said my piece, so you can weigh the pros and cons yourself!"
"Brother, that's an exaggeration. I am Leopard Head."
"Um?"
"I want them all."
"..."
After hanging up the phone and finishing his meal, Chu Yang went to look at the door of the lounge.
The food was still there, untouched.
It seems they're both sulking and refusing any of his help.
Helpless, Chu Yang thought for a moment, then simply went to the office to get a sofa cushion and lay down in the corridor.
We'll just keep watch; you'll need to use the restroom eventually, right? I bet you won't come out.
The surroundings were completely silent.
Chu Yang listened carefully, but there was no sound from Shu'er's side. Could she have fallen asleep?
Over at Xiaoli's place, I could vaguely hear her drawing circles and cursing.
"Stinky Chu Yang, bad Chu Yang, bastard, scoundrel, idiot, stinky egg, crooked egg..."
Chu Yang: "..."
After a while, perhaps they got tired of cursing, and then they stopped making a sound.
Just as he was about to fall asleep, the sound of the door opening rang out.
Coincidentally, both doors were open.
Xiao Li and Shu'er appeared at the same time, with Chu Yang lying upright between them.
The two stared at each other for three seconds, then simultaneously turned their gazes to him.
Chu Yang grinned: "You finally..."
Bang!
The sound of the door slamming shut was a simultaneous greeting.
Chu Yang, both amused and exasperated, shouted, "If you two need to go to the toilet, go! Don't hold it in!"
Little Pear: "None of your business!"
Shuer: "..."
Okay, we still need to manage it.
Chu Yang knew that if he stayed here to keep watch, the two of them would probably have a contest to see who could hold their pee the most.
So he put away the cushion, deliberately made his footsteps heavier as he left, and then quietly hid around the corner, preparing to catch someone randomly later.
Unlike men, women can't hold their urine for long.
It's no easier to solve than for men; at least men can find a bottle of energy drink.
Sure enough, less than ten minutes later, one of the doors opened.
