: Damn! Dude, you did the right thing. You should have done this a long time ago. After all, you are doing this for his health! (dog head.jpg)
Without Qiu Mengyun's burden, no need to help her share the weight of another bag of materials, and no need to distract herself from keeping an eye on her, Xia Tian climbed the stairs much faster. Even the guy who specialized in carrying things on the stairs was outmatched by Xia Tian.
After about ten minutes, Qiu Mengyun returned downstairs with two bottles of water.
When she came over, Xia Tian had just returned from upstairs after carrying the materials.
"Huh? Why did you come out of the building? Did you secretly carry it yourself while I was away?" Looking at Xia Tian who had just come out of the building, Qiu Mengyun asked puzzledly.
Xia Tian smiled and shook his head: "How could that be? I'm not that hardworking. It's just that I felt it was too sunny outside, so I ran inside to cool off."
"Oh! So this is the drink I just bought, drink it quickly!" Qiu Mengyun didn't think much about it and handed the functional drink in her hand to Xia Tian.
Xia Tian glanced at the drink that Qiu Mengyun handed over, but did not reach out to take it.
He frowned and asked, "Why are you buying drinks? Didn't I tell you to buy water?"
Qiu Mengyun asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Isn't this just water?"
Xia Tian shook his head: "These drinks don't quench your thirst. They will only make you thirstier. What I want to drink is mineral water."
"Ah? So that's how it is. I'm sorry I didn't hear you clearly just now. I thought you wanted a drink. Why don't you drink it first? When you finish this, I'll buy you some water when we take a break." Qiu Mengyun said a little embarrassedly.
"Don't wait a moment. I'm very thirsty now. Otherwise, please continue the journey!" Xia Tian was determined to send her away and of course would not agree to her suggestion.
"Well, okay then! Wait for me, I'll buy it for you again." Seeing Xia Tian looking at her with expectant eyes, Qiu Mengyun couldn't bear to refuse and had to agree.
After Qiu Mengyun left, Xia Tian immediately resumed carrying the building.
Seeing the young man coming down, Xia Tian threw the bottle of energy drink that Qiu Mengyun had bought to him.
"Dude, I bought too much water, so I'm giving it to you."
After receiving the water, the young man didn't open it immediately. Instead, he looked at Xia Tian's empty hands, shook his head and said, "This should be bought for you by your girlfriend, right? I can't drink this water. I'd better go buy it myself later."
Xia Tian smiled and explained, "Don't worry, buddy. I actually deliberately asked her to run again to buy me mineral water. The purpose was to save her from climbing stairs. If you don't drink it, then my previous statement that I didn't want to drink it will be exposed! Just think of it as a good deed and help me out. Drink this bottle."
Hearing Xia Tian say this, the guy carrying the building did not refuse. While drinking water, he said enviously: "You two have such a good relationship. If I can find a girlfriend in the future, I will treat her like this too."
Xia Tian was amused by the young man's words and said with a good-natured smile: "Hahaha! You are so handsome, I believe you will definitely find a girlfriend."
After saying that, he didn't delay any longer and directly carried three bags of materials on his shoulders and started a new journey of climbing stairs.
Seeing Xia Tian working so hard, the guy carrying the building seemed to be inspired. He put down his half-drunk water, picked up two bags of materials, and quickened his pace, muttering, "Keep working hard! Only by making more money can you find a girlfriend."
There weren't many materials left at the scene to begin with, and now Xia Tian and the guy who carried the building were working so hard. Finally, when Qiu Mengyun returned for the second time, the two of them had carried all the remaining materials.
Looking at Qiu Mengyun who had arrived late, Xia Tian smiled and asked, "Why did you take so long this time? If you don't come soon, I'll die of thirst."
Qiu Mengyun apologized, "Oh! You don't know, the store I just went to didn't have iced mineral water. I thought it would be so hot, and drinking room temperature water wouldn't quench my thirst, so I went to a few more stores and finally bought some iced mineral water."
"You are so considerate of me? I am so touched." Xia Tian said with a smile after taking the mineral water.
"You two should stop it. I'm a stranger here. It's too cruel for you to show your affection in front of a single guy like me so unscrupulously." Seeing the affectionate look on the two people's faces, the guy carrying the building protested dissatisfiedly.
Hearing the teasing from the guy carrying the building, Qiu Mengyun turned her head away embarrassedly.
However, when she looked at the place where the materials had just been piled, she was surprised to find that all the materials there had disappeared.
She asked in surprise: "Huh? Where are the things here? How come they all disappeared when I just went to buy a bottle of water?"
Before Xia Tian could speak, the guy carrying the building said with a smile: "Where else could she go? Of course she was carried upstairs by your boyfriend!"
"You don't know how tough your boyfriend is. To stop you from carrying bags, he sent you off to get water. He's been carrying three bags each time, and that's still faster than me carrying two. I'm starting to doubt myself: am I a professional bag carrier, or is he?"
The young man carrying the building spoke casually, but his plain words made Qiu Mengyun's heart no longer able to remain calm.
She walked silently behind Xia Tian, put her arms around his waist, and said with both heartache and complaint: "Why are you so stupid? Didn't we agree to carry it together?"
Xia Tian awkwardly put down his hand that was drinking water and chuckled, "It's okay, I was just bored waiting, so I thought I'd carry more bags and earn more money."
"Don't do this next time. Let's do the work together. This is your first time doing this, so don't get tired." Qiu Mengyun reminded him softly.
Before Xia Tian could reply, the young man carrying the materials beside him said, "Actually, I think it would be more tiring for him if you were to carry the materials with him. Not only would he have to carry the materials on his shoulders, but he would also have to secretly help you hold the materials from behind. Not only that, but he would have to keep an eye on you at all times to prevent you from accidentally falling or something like that."
"So, I think if you really care about him, it would be more helpful to just sit aside and rest and cheer him up."
