When he arrived at Zhongding Community, Bi Zhaoyun's crying stopped, his brain was empty, and his eyes were staring at a place in the void without focusing.

Ning Suyi went to the bedroom upstairs to find her own pajamas and asked her to take a hot bath first to avoid catching a cold. After all, she blew the cold wind in her sweater for a long time.

"I want to eat something? I'll order takeout for you." She squatted beside the sofa and asked Bi Zhaoyun.

Bi Zhaoyun shook her head numbly and told her not to be busy, she just sat quietly for a while.

Ning Suyi sighed and went to the bathroom to debug hot water for her. Suddenly, she remembered that there were no spare toiletries at home. The two sets I stocked up last time were used by Ye Fanshuang and Zou Qianen when they stayed there. Generally, no one else came to her residence, so she did not buy new ones.

"I'll go down and buy something."

Ning Suyi poured her a cup of hot water, told her, and took her cell phone and went out.

There is a convenience store in the community. After walking a few hundred meters away from the apartment building, she bought a few more sets of toiletries, put them in a plastic bag, carried them in her hand, and walked back in the cold wind.

"Spicy?"

A voice behind her stopped her, and Ning Suyi stopped and turned around in a familiar tone and tone. It was indeed Jing Chi. He quickly followed and walked side by side with her: "Today's Lantern Festival, haven't you gone home to celebrate the festival?"

He went back to Yongcui Yuefu to have a reunion dinner with the old lady in the evening. He didn't spend the night at home. He happened to drive home and took him along the way.

Jing Chi handed her hands in the pocket of the down jacket, looking down at her expression. The temperature was several degrees below zero at night. She had a casual suit in her black coat, not warm attire, but a layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.

"What's wrong?" He took his hand out of his pocket and went to pick up the plastic bag she was carrying.

His fingers accidentally touched the back of her hand, as cold as snow. Jing Chi paused and grabbed her hand. Compared with the two, his hands were too warm, comparable to a warm baby, so he simply wrapped her fingers.

The two walked into the elevator and other residents came in together. Ning Suyi was a little uncomfortable. After a little struggle, Jing Chi let go of her hand and still stared at her face. She could see the forbearing anger in her eyes.

The person she was angry with was obviously not him, but she didn't say it, even if he was anxious, he had no way to know.

The resident went out on the third floor. Ning Suyi was silent for a while and breathed out. He looked at Shangjingchi's concerning eyes. He knew that he was not an outsider, and he would not talk nonsense everywhere. He whispered: "My cousin cheated on him. My sister-in-law had a fight with him and had nowhere to go. I took her here." After a pause, she lowered her eyelids and her long eyelashes were lowered. Her cold face seemed to be covered with frost. "I actually felt a little guilty. I knew about this a long time ago, but I kept hiding it from my sister-in-law. Maybe I told her earlier that she had at least a buffer in her heart, so that she would not..."

Jing Chi reached out and pressed her shoulder, put her arms around her arms, gently rubbed her back with her hands, and her voice was low and light: "There is no guilt in this, and the harm was not caused by you."

The down jacket on his body was still open, wearing a thin shirt inside, his body temperature was ironed with Ning Suyi's face, and the refreshing smell on his body was filled with breathing.

Ning Suyi pushed him away and exhaled: "Don't take the opportunity to take advantage of me."

"Wow, it's not easy, you actually joked with me." She has always been a little embarrassed about him recently, and she would not joke as unscrupulously as before. Only then did Jing Chi feel strange.

"Don't talk nonsense." Ning Suyi glared at him.

Jing Chi smiled and asked, "Have you eaten?"

"No." Ning Suyi's face suddenly collapsed and said helplessly, "As soon as I got home, they started arguing. My uncle was not worried about the chaos. My father advised him on the side, and in the end, it was my grandfather who came forward to calm down."

Jing Chi listened and didn't interrupt. You can imagine how chaotic the scene was. It was originally the Lantern Festival.

Ning Suyi said: "I know there are some things that shouldn't be said, but in those words of grandpa, it is actually unfair to his sister-in-law..."

The elevator reached the fifteenth floor and the door opened. Jing Chi stood still and pressed the closing key. The elevator door that had not been completely opened overlapped and closed.

Ning Suyi looked up at him for no reason and said, "Your home is here."

"Go to your house."

"What are you doing at my house? My sister-in-law is there."

"It's not that I haven't seen your sister-in-law." After a few words, the 16th floor arrived. Jing Chi took her things and walked out of the elevator with her, walked through the long marble corridor, and whispered to her, "Didn't you have eaten? I'll cook some noodles for you."

Ning Suyi hand-written it into her coat pocket: "I have no appetite."

"You can't stop eating if you don't have an appetite. Listen to me, your body will get into trouble if you get hungry." Jing Chi said seriously.

Ning Suyi felt that his words were too exaggerated, and there would be any problem if he didn't eat a meal. From childhood to adulthood, her body was as strong as a calf, and she had only one sleep problem and often made people feel distressed. In comparison, he was the type who was truly weak.

When he arrived outside the door, Ning Suyi held the door handle in his hand, looked at Jing Chi sideways, and said softly: "Or why don't you go in. My sister-in-law is in the living room. She will definitely be uncomfortable when she sees you."

Jing Chi thought for a moment, and after hearing her words, he gave her the plastic bag in his hand. He couldn't help but raise his arm and snatch her hair: "I'll order takeout for you, remember to eat it, call me if you have something to do."

Ning Suyi was stunned for a moment, nodded half a beat, watching him turn around and walk away, and enter the elevator. There seemed to be a faint fragrance on his body remaining in the air around him.

After unlocking the lock, Ning Suyi lowered her head and changed her shoes, and walked to the living room. Bi Zhaoyun sat on the sofa like she had left before, alone, like a ghost that would dissipate at any time.

Ning Suyi took out a set of toiletries, toothbrush, towel, and bath towel from the bag and took it to her. Bi Zhaoyun took it mechanically, held it in her arms, said thank you to her, and walked to the bathroom on the first floor.

Ning Suyi went to the guest room to tidy up and changed into a set of bed sheets and quilt covers. When she came out, the sound of water in the bathroom had not stopped, drizzling like the sound of rain falling in her ears.

She was anxious for no reason and patted the frosted glass door: "Sister-in-law, have you washed it?"

The response from inside made Ning Suyi's heart slightly fall back, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

After waiting for a while, a phone call came in and the delivery person arrived downstairs.

Ning Suyi took the meal back and placed it on the dining table. Jing Chi always knew what she wanted to eat when she had no appetite. A bowl of hot wontons, a golden fried vegetarian dumpling, and a raw rolled fish porridge, without any fishy smell, only a fresh and fragrant smell floated out.

The meal for the two was just right. Ning Suyi and Bi Zhaoyun came out and advised her to eat something.

Bi Zhaoyun asked her to eat first, and she drank her hair by herself. She sat down slowly to the dining table, took the porridge, took a few bites, and said stutteringly, "Su Yi, can I ask you to borrow some money?"

Ning Suyi did not refuse: "How much do you want?"

Bi Zhaoyun said a number, not much, and even for Ning Suyi, it cannot be called "borrowed".

Ning Suyi finished eating, wiped her mouth, and went upstairs to get her cash. She didn't carry a cell phone, so the transfer would not work. Ning Suyi was worried that it wouldn't be enough, so she took two thousand extra.

Bi Zhaoyun's eyes were already very red. Seeing this, his dry eyes turned around, and he looked like he was about to cry again: "Thank you, I want to go back to my hometown tomorrow, and I will repay you when I go back."

Ning Suyi was not surprised by her decision. No matter how comforted and enlightened the outsiders could never be as good as the company of her closest family members.

"You can use it, don't worry," said Ning Suyi. "When do you want to leave? I can book the air ticket for you on my phone. I will drive you to the airport tomorrow."

Bi Zhaoyun shook her head and refused her kindness. Her ID was still in Jinlanyuan, but she didn't want to meet Ning Yiyang again. She planned to go directly to the train station tomorrow to apply for a temporary ID card to buy a ticket to go home. Besides, Ning Suyi was busy enough, and she didn't want to cause trouble for her.

——

Ning Suyi woke up the next morning and went to the guest room to see that Bi Zhaoyun had left, the quilt was neatly stacked at the end of the bed, and the sheets were straight and smooth without any wrinkles.

She stood by the door for a moment and thought to herself that she was right. Her cousin-in-law seemed gentle and shy on the surface, but she was as gentle as water, but in fact she was very tough in her bones, and she was tougher than ordinary people.

Based on the past few words, she learned that Bi Zhaoyun was born in a very happy family. Her father was an honest migrant worker and her mother worked in a shoe factory. Her biggest regret was that she failed to go to college. At that time, her father was seriously ill and spent all her family’s savings during surgery. Her own academic performance was not outstanding. She gritted her teeth and dropped out of school to work.

Afterwards, the family of three worked hard and lived a comfortable life in the small county town.

Such a family is her confidence.

Ning Suyi turned around, covered the door, and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

It was probably because of the habit of being brought out by Jing Chi. She now basically solved the breakfast at home. However, Jing Chi was responsible for the work before, but today she got up too early and made two servings.

As soon as the fire was turned off, Ning Suyi heard the sound of the door lock "beeping". Without looking back, you will know that it was the well that was late.

He would say hello on WeChat before, and after he tried to show that she would not refuse, he didn't know her when he came over and brushed his fingerprints to unlock the lock.

Jing Chi yawned until the kitchen. When he was halfway through the yawn, he was scared. He opened his eyes wide and raised his wrist to look at his watch with uncertainty: "Why did you get up so early today?"

"I got up when I couldn't sleep. Have breakfast and made your portion."

"What did you do?"

"Can it be someone else's making it?" Ning Suyi pushed him a portion of it, an extremely simple potato cake with fried eggs, and a cup of hot milk.

Jing Chi raised the corner of his mouth, pulled open the chair and sat at the dining table, coughed lightly, covered his smile, and asked, "Where is your sister-in-law?"

"I left early in the morning and I didn't see her, but I imagine that she didn't sleep all night." Ning Suyi took a sip of hot milk and couldn't help but sigh, "I heard her talk a lot yesterday. Her relationship with my cousin for nearly nine years was burned down. When the relationship was strong, it was like cooking oil in a fire. In a blink of an eye, nothing was left except that child."

Jing Chi was eating potato cakes and hearing the sighs and regrets in her words. Her heart was shocked, for fear that she would get stuck: "Don't just apply it to other men, I won't do that."

Ning Suyi glanced at him and was a little speechless: "I didn't say anything to you."

"That's good." Jing Chi vowed, "Our relationship has not changed for more than 20 years, of course the same will be true for the next twenty years."

Ning Suyi was moved, but she wanted to argue: "Who can tell you this kind of thing accurately? It is not difficult to maintain friendship for twenty years, but it is not certain to convert it into another relationship. It is not certain that by then, it is not as good as most people."

When Jing Chi heard this, he put down the tableware and looked at her with infinite gentle eyes: "As long as you give me a chance to change my identity, I will prove to you what the result will be. Do you dare?"

Ning Suyi discovered the topic she raised, so she turned herself in.

She should have known that she could not discuss such issues with Jing Chi, because it would probably end up with her.

"It's getting late, are you finished eating? I'm going to work." Ning Suyi drank all the remaining milk in the cup, got up to clean up the plate, and acted like a rush to the crowd.

Old Shen Jing Chi was slumping on the chair with his arms folded, looking up at her, and laughed: "You coward."

Ning Suyi couldn't bear it anymore: "Don't force me to cover your face with the plate."

"If my sister is willing to give up, just cover it up."

“…”

Ning Suyi bit her lip and never said a word to him. She ran away to the kitchen with a plate. She always claimed to be calm, but recently she has repeatedly failed in front of him.

Sooner or later, I will find the house and move out. Ning Su thought.

As a result, my brother took it off before he moved out, so he didn't have to move it anymore :)
