Chapter 34 I feel sorry for you

The noodle soup in the pot boiled again, making a gurgling sound.

The milky white mist curled up, making half of Gu Yanci's face wet.

He vaguely felt that Li Mianmian's voice was like the mist, dyeing the other half of his face with moisture.

The room seemed a little quiet.

Li Mianmian didn't dare to look at him. She lowered her eyes and could see the rise and fall of her chest as her breathing accelerated.

Moving his gaze forward slightly, Gu Yanci's chest felt calm, as if he wasn't breathing at all.

I can't tell who is more nervous between the two.

After a while, she bit her lip - her calves began to feel numb.

Gu Yanci finally spoke: "Are you really that scared?"

His voice was deep and slightly hoarse.

"Um!"

Li Mianmian nodded repeatedly, took the opportunity to put his feet down, and said eloquently: "Think about it, in such a big house, if I want to drink a glass of water at night, when I come out, it will be dark and quiet outside, and there will be no sound. Isn't it scary?

"

Gu Yanci: "Even if I lived here, there would be no sound at night."

"Aren't you breathing?" Li Mianmian asked immediately.

"..." Gu Yanci laughed, "Can you still hear me breathing?"

"My ears are very good!" Li Mianmian said, "And don't argue with me, you know that this is not comparable at all. Even if there is no sound, as long as I know that you are in the house, I feel very at ease!"

Gu Yanci looked at her for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay."

He was so cheerful, but Li Mianmian was stunned: "Ah? You...are you agreeing now?"

"if not?"

"...Oh." Li Mianmian whispered, "I thought I had to grind with you for a while..."

"I don't have that kind of time-wasting hobby."

Gu Yanci sighed and said helplessly: "When has brother ever been able to defeat you?"

Li Mianmian chuckled and rubbed his face in embarrassment.

Not long after, Gu Yanci prepared dinner.

He said he simply cooked Yangchun noodles, but in fact he fried two more eggs and fried a portion of shrimps.

The two of them sat face to face at the table. As soon as Gu Yanci picked up his chopsticks, the phone next to him started ringing with messages coming in one after another.

He picked up his phone and browsed through it quickly, then ate a few bites of noodles in a hurry, pulled out two pieces of paper, stood up and said, "Brother has something to do, so he has to leave first. Just put the bowl on the table after you finish, and he will clean it up when he comes back."

"Ah?" Li Mianmian also stood up, "But you haven't even eaten enough..."

"It's okay. I'll buy something to eat when it's empty later."

He walked to the door, opened it, stood at the entrance to change his shoes, and said uneasily: "Don't go out again tonight. If you need anything, send me a message, and my brother will bring it back to you."

"Brother." Li Mianmian scratched the door frame and asked, "When will you come back?"

"Not sure." Gu Yanci straightened up and smiled at her, "Go to rest early and don't have to wait for me."

"Oh." Li Mianmian nodded.

The elevator automatically rose when the door opened, and it was now on the twenty-sixth floor.

Gu Yanci pressed the down button, the elevator door opened, he walked in, and made a "go back quickly" gesture to her.

Li Mianmian looked at him and suddenly thought of something: "Hey, brother, you..."

The elevator door is closed.

She felt a little empty for no reason, so she stood there for a while before returning to the house.

After finishing the meal, Li Mianmian put the dishes away and put them in the dishwasher.

She didn't pour out the remaining half of the bowl of noodles from Gu Yanci. She also left some shrimps in the bowl, covered them with plastic wrap and put them in the refrigerator.

What he said about buying something to eat was probably not eating. In this regard, Li Mianmian was completely skeptical of him.

After doing this, Li Mianmian went to look around the rooms again.

I only focused on tidying up the master bedroom in the afternoon, and I didn't even have time to take a good look at the other rooms.

After wandering around like this, she discovered that Gu Yanci had not moved all her things away, but had put them in boxes and placed them in the storage room.

Thinking about it, he couldn't possibly move all these things to the company.

Li Mianmian dragged these boxes to the bedroom next to the master bedroom and decided to tidy them up.

She originally planned to return the master bedroom to Gu Yanci, but when she saw that the other bedrooms were all suites and had everything except a smaller closet, and even the bathtub had the same specifications, she was too lazy to change.

Even if he changes back, he will probably have to be nagged by Gu Yanci. If he moves out again for such a trivial matter, the gain will outweigh the loss.

Gu Yanci doesn't have many things, mainly some clothes and a few books.

Li Mianmian used to think that he was a bit ruthless and desireless. Looking at it this way, it turned out to be true.

Although there were few things, she organized them very carefully. All the clothes were sorted out and hung up, and any uneven ones were simply ironed.

Speaking of which, this was her first time ironing clothes. She had only seen Lan Qingwan do it before.

I learned how to operate it from memory, and it turned out not to be particularly difficult.

There was a small box at the bottom of the suitcase containing clothes. Li Mianmian opened the lid, took a look, and quickly closed it again.

——It's underwear...

She blushed and stuffed the box into the closet. She instantly lost her previous leisurely mood and ran out of the bedroom dragging the empty box.

It was almost eleven o'clock after washing up, and Gu Yanci hadn't come back yet, nor had he sent her a message.

Li Mianmian lay on the bed, found a movie and watched it on his mobile phone. At first he could hold his eyelids open, but then he fell asleep unconsciously.

It was in the middle of the night that she suddenly woke up, remembering that she had not taken off her headphones and the movie had not been turned off.

I turned on my phone and saw that it was 3:30 in the morning and the movie had already ended.

Gu Yanci still hasn't sent her a message.

After lying on the bed in a daze for a moment, Li Mianmian turned on the bedside lamp, turned over and sat up.

She really didn't expect that Gu Yanci would work so late.

And why didn't you send her a message?

Is it because she is too busy or because it is too late and I don’t want to disturb her?

Or, is it because something happened to him?

The more Li Mianmian thought about it, the more worried she became. She picked up her phone and walked outside while sending a message to Gu Yanci.

As soon as I walked into the living room, before I could turn on the light, I saw something light up, vaguely reflecting the figure lying on the sofa.

He is back?

Li Mianmian walked quietly to the sofa and looked down.

It turned out to be Gu Yanci's cell phone. It had just received a message from her, so it suddenly lit up.

She knelt down, unlocked her phone screen, and shined a weak light on Gu Yanci's face.

I don't know why, but he frowned in his sleep, as if he was in great pain.

"Brother?" Li Mianmian called softly.

Gu Yanci did not respond.

She was worried that he would fall into a nightmare, so she raised her voice and called again: "Brother."

Gu Yanci's eyes moved.

Li Mianmian pursed her lips, carefully stretched out her hand, and poked him in the face: "Brother, wake up."

The next second, he opened his eyes, with a sharp and vigilant look in his eyes.

Li Mianmian was startled: "...brother?"

Hearing the sound, Gu Yanci came back to his senses and slowly sat up from the sofa: "Why don't you turn on the light?"

"I was afraid of waking you up just now," Li Mianmian said, "but I saw that you seemed to be feeling very uncomfortable, so I woke you up anyway."

Gu Yanci said "hmm" in a hoarse voice.

Li Mianmian stared at him: "Brother."

"What?"

"You pinch me so much." Li Mianmian shook the fingers he held.
