Chapter 19
Qiao Zhiyu touched his forehead.
It’s strange to say that I can fall asleep when I get home on the sofa, but now I’m lying on the bed, my mind is so clear.
She looked at the person lying beside her again, Qiao Qing pressed muffledly in Ji Xi’s arms, the two of them breathed evenly, and both fell asleep.
After turning off the lights, Qiao Zhi had habitual insomnia. I thought about some things, but I didn’t know exactly when I fell asleep.
Early the next morning. The three of them were sleeping soundly in the bedding.
A ray of sunlight came in through the gap between the curtains and shone diagonally on the carpet. Qiao Zhiyu opened his eyes lazily and looked at the bedside clock. It was exactly eight o’clock.
I slept fairly comfortably.
Qiao Zhiyu turned his head and saw the scene on the pillow side, suddenly strange. I used to sleep alone for a long time. Now I open my eyes and see more people beside my pillow, which is naturally strange.
Ji Xi slept very peacefully and kept his rules. What he was like when he slept last night, and what he is still keeping now. Qiao Qing turned over in the night, turned to face Qiao Zhiyu in the morning, and put his back in Ji Xi’s arms.
One big and one small white face fell into view, Qiao Zhiyu watched quietly, Ji Xi quietly hugged Qiao Qing, sleeping in exactly the same way, even the same sleeping posture when lying on his side.
Qiao Zhiyu raised his lips.
Very interesting scene.
She took the phone, and on a whim early in the morning, she couldn’t help but secretly took a photo of the two of them.
Qiao Zhi goes beyond the habit of not lying in bed, and will get up when he wakes up. For fear of waking up the person in bed, she got out of bed very lightly, even washing herself was outside the bedroom.
Aunt Li usually prepares breakfast at eight o’clock. After seeing Qiao Zhiyu, she greeted her as she hurriedly said, “It’s always early Qiao. Xiaoqing hasn’t gotten up yet?”
“Not yet.” Qiao Zhiyu confessed by the way, “It was too late last night, let them sleep a little longer. Have breakfast later.”
Qiao Zhiyu treats Qiao Qing strictly and will not let her develop the habit of sleeping late, but it was a special situation last night and she slept too late.
Aunt Li responded with a smile, “Okay.”
It was almost nine o’clock.
Qiao Zhiyu returned to the bedroom again, and the two on the bed were still asleep. She sat on the edge of the bed, looking helplessly, she was envious of being able to sleep in this way.
In fact, Ji Xi didn’t sleep well last night and woke up several times at night, not because of the unfamiliar environment, but because of physical discomfort during her period.
She came to her aunt quite tossingly.
Especially in the first two days, the first day yesterday I felt fine, but I felt tired and fatigued. Today’s situation is much worse and I feel painful.
Although Ji Xi has the habit of getting up late on weekends, if it wasn’t for her physical discomfort, she wouldn’t be cheeky and sleep so late at someone else’s house.
“Breakfast.” As he said, Qiao Zhiyu leaned over slightly, and she gently touched Qiao Qing’s cheek, “Baby, I woke up.”
Ji Xi’s sleepy eyes were awakened by a soft and pleasant “baby, awake”.
The moment she opened her eyes met Qiao Zhiyu’s gaze. She thought that Qiao Zhiyu was calling herself… After half a second, she realized that she was calling Qiao Qing.
Qiao Zhiyu saw that Ji Xi finally opened her eyes, lowered her head and smiled at her, “You too, get up for breakfast.”
This tone is like treating yourself as an older child. The feeling of being taken care of… Ji Xi endured the discomfort and couldn’t help but smile, “Yeah.”
Qiao Zhiyu looked at Ji Xi just waking up in a daze, and somehow wanted to squeeze her face.
No pinch.
Just think about it.
Qiao Qing rubbed his eyes and got out of bed without making any noise.
Qiao Zhiyu: “Be good, go brush your teeth and wash your face.”
Qiao Qing nodded.
“Teacher will go with you.” Ji Xi said in a vague voice. After sitting up, her lower abdomen was painful.
Qiao Zhiyu found out that her face was pale and abnormally pale, very ugly. Then asked: “Uncomfortable?”
“No.” Ji Xi felt nothing, Shinnin passed. Her temperament has always been tolerable.
“I don’t know if my face is so ugly.” Qiao Zhiyu guessed, “menstrual period?”
“Yeah. It’s okay.”
Qiao Zhiyu quickly saw through Ji Xi’s hard mouth and said: “If it’s uncomfortable, take a rest.”
“No need to.”
“Then get up and eat something.”
“Ok.”
Maybe people are especially sensitive to gentle care when they are fragile. Ji Xi likes Qiao Zhiyu’s low voice, his voice digging into his ears, and it is very comfortable to listen to. I even hope that the conversation with her can be longer.
Breakfast was sandwiches and milk. Ji Xi saw that there was an extra cup of brown sugar **** tea on the table, and he was steaming hot.
Ji Xi has never been cared so carefully before, but Ji Xi feels unspeakable…
“Thank you, Mr. Joe.”
Qiao Zhiyu ate the sandwiches, and just said, “Auntie made it specially for you. Let’s have breakfast.”
Ji Xi usually doesn’t eat breakfast much on weekends, and usually eats lunch directly when he wakes up.
“Don’t go to class if you feel unwell today.” Qiao Zhiyu said again.
Ji Xi smiled and said, “It’s okay, it doesn’t affect.”
“Go back early to rest, and go to work tomorrow.” Qiao Zhiyu did not give in. Don’t you feel tired if you don’t rest seven days a week?
She didn’t know why Ji Xi had to fight like this. She always felt that this girl had hidden stories on her body, such as the tattoos on her body.
“Teacher, you can go to class after you have a good rest.” Qiao Qing said while holding a milk cup, “Auntie, you can send the teacher home.”
Qiao Zhiyu said to Qiao Qing, “If you finish drinking all the milk, the aunt will send the teacher home.”
Qiao Qing heard that a cup of milk was drunk upright, and he said that he could drink another cup, which is really rare.
After eating breakfast, Ji Xi didn’t ask Qiao Zhiyu to send herself back. She didn’t let her go. Her character was so stubborn as a cow. Qiao Zhiyu didn’t know her.
Ji Xi still lives in school, and the move is scheduled for next week. Jiang Nian said when she moved and when to sign the contract. Anyway, the house was reserved for her and she could not run away.
The pain was terrible today, and Ji Xi was fortunate that it was on the weekend, otherwise the workday would be delayed. In the afternoon, she drank two glasses of brown sugar water and ate an ibuprofen. She lay down in bed early in the morning and pressed a hot water bottle in her lower abdomen in summer.
She squinted her eyes to rest, and occasionally there would be the sound of pulling suitcases in the corridor of the dormitory, the wheels ran over the ground, noisy, and then drifted away and disappeared completely.
Most of the people living in this building are graduate students, and everyone has left school one after another. Now the building is empty and too deserted.
Ji Xi is not afraid of being deserted, nor is he afraid of being alone, just the kind of numbness that sometimes feels life is quite numb, dull. Every day I think about trying to make money. It seems full, but in fact it is empty.
Because she slept too early, Ji Xi woke up after ten o’clock in the evening.
The lower abdomen is not so uncomfortable, but it is really embarrassing to wake up at this point. She wants to go to sleep, but can’t fall asleep. She stared at the ceiling for a moment, and suddenly remembered something…
Ji Xi also felt deserted. When Qiao Zhiyu received the WeChat from Ji Xi, he happened to put Qiao Qing to sleep, and he was about to go back to the room alone.
After Qiao Zhiyu picked up the phone and saw the person who sent the message, he was surprised.
They have known each other for so long, and the two have never chatted on WeChat. The chat history is limited to the transfer of supplementary tuition fees and thank you. Nothing else.
Ji Xi’s WeChat nickname is very simple, it is jx, which is too lazy to get it at first glance. Her head is a cartoon orange cat, raising a paw, learning the same actions as a lucky cat.
—[Ji Xi] President Qiao, I washed your coat clean. You were not at home yesterday, and I put it on the sofa in Xiaoqing’s room. Forgot to tell you today.
Between the lines, the attitude is as serious as always.
Qiao Zhiyu looked on the sofa and saw a big bag as expected. She lowered her head and typed, and replied: “I saw it.”
Ji Xi was shocked by the speed at which Qiao Zhi surpassed the news, and he could reply in seconds. She looked at the short chat conversation and seemed to have nothing to say.
She was just about to put down her phone when she saw Qiao Zhiyu take the initiative to send out a sentence: “Is uncomfortable, why don’t you go to bed earlier?”
It’s like a greeting between friends. Ji Xi is not a small talker, and she doesn’t know why. Now, I especially want to chat with Qiao Zhiyu a few more words.
Because it’s so boring?
Maybe.
Ji Xi: “I slept too much during the day and couldn’t sleep at night.”
After a few seconds, Qiao Zhiyu asked, “Is it better?”
Ji Xi: “Nothing, much better, is Xiao Qing asleep?”
Qiao Zhiyu: “Just put the little guy to sleep.”
Immediately afterwards, Ji Xi saw a photo sent by Qiao Zhiyu. In the photo, Qiao Qing shrank her face under the quilt, closed her eyes and pouted, and slept soundly.
Ji Xi smiled while watching, and quickly tapped the keyboard with her fingertips: “The little guy is so cute.”
Qiao Zhiyu handily sent the photo that was secretly taken in the morning to Ji Xi.
Then look at the photos that have been sent.
She paused.
When Ji Xi saw himself in the second photo besides Qiao Qing, he was stunned. It was a funny and silly photo taken while she was asleep. One big and one small kept sleeping in a divinely synchronized posture.
Ji Xi typed and asked: “When was it taken?”
Qiao Zhiyu replied: “In the morning, I feel cute.”
Looking at her messy hair in the picture, Ji Xi’s sleeping face with no sense of beauty at all, she couldn’t help asking: “Mr. Qiao, how cute is this?”
Qiao Zhiyu could probably make up for Ji Xi’s reaction at the moment. She smiled and replied four words to Ji Xi: “Silly and cute.”
The night seemed less deserted. The two of them were lying on the bed, staring at the screen of the phone, and giggling at the same time…
