The next day, early in the morning, it was dawn and the streets were quiet.
Leiyin slowly opened her eyes, propped up her upper body on her elbows, and sat up from the floor.
She looked at the person tied up on the single bed with a worried look.
Slightly tighten the slightly downward neckline and pull the long hair back.
Leiyin walked to the bedside and touched Xu Fei's forehead with her cold hands, and found that the temperature had returned to normal.
"Fei... are you awake..."
After waiting for a long time, no one answered.
Xu Fei closed his eyes tightly and lay calmly on the bed motionless, with only the faint sound of even breathing coming out.
The slender fingers slid regularly in the air, outlining several weird patterns.
Wow.
The hemp ropes on Xu Fei's body were untied one by one.
"Fei...I...explained to them...that you...eating poisonous mushrooms...created an environment..."
"So...it's okay..." Leiyin explained softly, but still received no response.
After neatly folding the bedding on the floor and putting it back into the cabinet, Leiyin looked at Xu Fei and walked out of the room.
After the door was closed, Xu Fei opened his eyes and silently shed two lines of tears...
"Is this considered a social death..."
…
In the bathroom, the sound of washing could be heard sparsely, and the cold water splashed on the smooth and delicate cheeks, giving a slight sense of refreshment.
He raised his head, and drops of water fell from his tall nose to his red lips.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Leiyin's pupils were shining with determination.
She clenched her fists and encouraged herself: "Today... we must let Fei... go out..."
After changing into clothes for going out, Leiyin picked up a small cloth bag from the shoe cabinet and prepared to go out to buy something and come back early.
Originally, her job every morning was to clean the house, and Xu Fei didn't recommend her to go out alone.
So Xu Fei usually goes to buy breakfast, but now is an extraordinary period, Lei Yin feels that at least having a full meal can help him regain some energy.
Quietly opening a corner of the curtain and watching the girl go away, Xu Fei stared blankly at the hazy sky.
My memory of what happened yesterday is a little fuzzy, but I still know what stupid things I did.
He is thick-skinned, but there is a limit.
This level of embarrassment...breaking the defense...
At this moment, I have the urge to stay at home for the rest of my life and never go out.
I finally understood why the second emperor brother whom I had never met had a breakdown in his heart.
I thought that being mentally ill was just a trance, and that I would be done with it if I just stared at home for a day or two.
Little did he know that the actual situation was like sleepwalking with his eyes open, making trouble everywhere, and he was extremely energetic.
"Hey... we can't let Leiyin worry about me like that, I'm a man!"
Taking a deep breath, Xu Fei gritted his teeth and forced himself to cheer up.
Isn't it just a shame? Can you really die in society?
I have worked overtime for so many years to contribute to society. There is hard work without credit, and there is fatigue even without hard work. The society will give me face even if it doesn’t give me face!
I, Xu Fei, have lived in this old city for more than twenty years, and the face and connections I have accumulated are not in vain.
In addition, all the uncles and aunts are so kind-hearted! They will definitely understand and will not spread it around!
Let’s go! Go to Uncle Ye first to apologize and explain by the way! Restore your reputation!
Xu Fei's eyes regained clarity, and he took advantage of the warmth to quickly change into clothes.
I brushed my teeth hastily and walked out of the room without even bothering to show my face.
When passing by the small courtyard, Xu Fei looked back at the roof, his cheeks twitched, and he muttered: "Go to your uncle's Dawn Overlord."
On the street, just in time for the morning rush hour, Laowangtou Baozi Shop was very popular.
In front of the window at the door, there were more than a dozen people queuing up in both queues, causing the breakfast stall owners around to cast envious glances.
But there's nothing I can do about it. I've been working here for more than 20 years. The food is authentic, and it's bigger and cleaner than the surrounding stores. All the work is done by my own family and I don't have to pay wages.
No, I recently heard that her eldest daughter had a boyfriend, and that boy opened a shop in the commercial street next door.
Since it is a handicraft store, it is usually closed in the morning.
In order to please his future father-in-law, that guy has been coming over every morning to pretend to help me, and even beat me to death for free.
This is equivalent to picking up another labor force and improving efficiency.
You know, for early stalls, speed is also very important.
Old men and women don't care. Office workers can't afford it. Basically, if the waiting time exceeds ten minutes, they will turn around and change places.
"Two ladders of pork and scallion buns...two fried dough sticks...one lazy dragon...one fried cake...one sugar pancake...two bowls of fried liver...one bowl of tofu puffs...one bowl of spicy soup...two bowls of wontons..."
An incredibly beautiful and slender girl stood in front of the display window, staring at the menu on the wall and speaking slowly.
"What???"
Su Wenbin was stunned. He raised his glasses and began to try hard to remember the meal the guest had just ordered. He didn't even have time to appreciate the peerless face in front of him.
After all, he has only been here to help for a few days and is not very familiar with the business, but even if he is familiar with it, he will not be able to memorize it for so long, Su Wenbin thought to himself.
"Two ladders of pork and green onion buns, two fried dough sticks! Blah blah..."
Wang Weijun repeated it loudly and then stepped forward.
"Xiao Su, you go and steam the buns. Let me do it here."
"Okay, Uncle Wang." Su Wenbin nodded and smiled, thinking that ginger is still hotter than ever.
His hands were flying quickly on the food shelves, packing various meals. Wang Weijun always felt that the contents of this order were a bit familiar.
After sizing up the girl, he asked curiously: "Girl, are you...Xiao Fei's wife?"
"It's...fiancée..." Leiyin blinked and corrected.
In the past, when someone said this to her, she would blush a little, but recently she found that she was used to it...
Wang Weijun laughed, thinking that they are not the same. If you two live together, you will have a baby.
Moreover, he knew that Xiao Fei's child was probably a more dedicated one. In addition, the girl was pretty, and there was a 90% chance that the two children would be together in the future.
After packing the heavy breakfast and handing it to Leiyin, Wang Weijun asked again:
"I heard that mushrooms grew in your living room, and then Xiaofei was poisoned after eating them raw? How are you now? Are you feeling better?"
When Leiyin heard this, her little hand trembled slightly and she almost lost her grip on the breakfast.
She looked at the other person with slight doubts and replied softly: "Fei... he should be fine..."
"It's okay. You're a young man. He recovers quickly."
Nodding and smiling, Wang Weijun waved boldly behind him and said: "Xiao Su, help me get another drawer of mushroom and pork buns."
"Okay."
Su Wenbin quickly packed the buns and trotted over to deliver them.
"Here, girl! Tell Xiao Fei that this is a gift specially given to him by Uncle Wang. Tell him to recover quickly and buy breakfast for himself!"
Taking the bun, Leiyin nodded in thanks, then hesitated and asked, "How... did you know... that Xu Fei was poisoned..."
When Wang Weijun heard this, he pointed at the back of the team with a wicked smile and asked Leiyin to look at it by herself.
He turned his head to look in confusion and listened attentively.
Behind the team, several elders and aunties were dancing and talking about something.
"Let me tell you, that kid Xiao Fei's waist is twisted like a loach."
"Yes, and those arms and legs don't seem to have any bones! The dancing is so exciting!"
"That kid has never learned to dance, right? I heard he ate poisonous mushrooms that grew in the kitchen."
"Why don't we eat on the hour while we wait for the district competition? We're guaranteed to win the championship."
"Pull it down, you are so young, we old arms and legs will definitely pull down our crotch immediately after eating!"
Leiyin opened her small mouth, with a dark look on her face, and decided not to persuade Xu Fei to go out today.
