In your lifetime, stay safe

Chapter 4 Chapter 4

Lu Haosheng was on a business trip recently, so Xu Xi didn't have to go shopping for groceries every day after work and go home to cook.Calculating the time, he has lived in Lu Haosheng's place for nearly half a month. Although the two of them don't meet each other much every day, they are indeed harmonious.Xu Xi never thought that one day they would be like this, maybe it was just a joke from the heavens.

"Xu Xi, why don't you go back after get off work?" The shop owner asked. After all, Xu Xi is very responsible these days. Not only is he not late, but he is the one who works the hardest every day. We need to get more involved.

"It's still early, I want to read more books." Xu Xi said lightly. He dropped out of high school before finishing high school. It has always been a pity for him. Now he not only gets paid for going to work every day, but also has time. Reading books is already a very special treatment for Xu Xi.And the boss is a very good person, and he didn't say anything about his low education.

"If only my daughter loved reading half as much as you do. You don't know, I have to supervise her study every day when I go back home, and she even said that I abused her. I don't even know how to serve this little princess."

Xu Xi didn't know what to say, so he could only smile faintly. He was very envious, but he could only be envious.

Xu Xi didn't pack up and leave until the shop was closed. Now it was the first time the lights came on. Xu Xi was walking on the street, seeing that all the couples passing by were dependent on each other. They were so happy. Thinking about it, Xu Xi didn't look like he was alone.Xu Xi tightened his clothes and walked back slowly.

Lu Haosheng was on a business trip, and Xu Xi was alone in a daze when he returned home. Although Lu Haosheng said that he could use the computer in his study, it was someone else's property after all, and he was only staying here temporarily.It was long past dinner time, Xu Xi saw baked sweet potatoes on the side of the road, and bought two for supper.

The roasted sweet potato was still steaming, and Xu Xi felt it was very hot when he held it in his arms. If he really wanted to eat it, he had to wait until it cooled down.Xu Xi took the elevator back to Lu Haosheng's apartment, thinking that there would be no one there, but as soon as he closed the door, he saw Lu Haosheng standing in front of him wearing a bathrobe and wiping his hair.

How to describe that situation, Xu Xi stood there blankly, still holding the sweet potatoes he bought on the road just now in his hand.And Lu Haosheng looked at him strangely, not knowing why he was so shocked to see himself.

"Did you buy it for me? How do you know that I haven't eaten yet?" Lu Haosheng casually took the sweet potato from Xu Xi's hand. It smelled quite delicious. He hadn't eaten it for a long time, and he kind of missed it.

"My sweet potato, you robber, that's my dinner." Xu Xi roared in his heart, but on the surface he was very generous watching Lu Haosheng sit on the sofa with his sweet potato, although his heart was bleeding, But on the surface, nothing can be shown.

"Do you want to eat?" Lu Haosheng asked him holding up a sweet potato.

"No, you can eat it, I've already eaten it." Xu Xi said very relaxedly, seeing his two lovely sweet potatoes being swallowed by Lu Haosheng mouthful like this, his heart ached beyond measure. But still nothing on the surface.

"Why did you come back early? Didn't you say you won't be back until next week?" Xu Xi asked. If he hadn't come back early, he wouldn't have been so caught off guard.

"I'll be back after finishing things ahead of time." Lu Haosheng threw the sweet potato peels into the trash can, and then took a paper towel to wipe his hands.This was for a project during a business trip, but it was carried out very quickly, and the place of the business trip was close to my parents' home, so I went back by the way. When I came back, I brought a lot of things to Lin Jing according to my parents' wishes. Good thing, it really is someone else's child who wants to kiss, but thinking about the two pairs of slippers I saw when I went to Lin Jing's apartment just now, is it possible that Lin Jing is living with someone now?

"Oh, that's it." Lin Jing thought for a while, relying on Lu Haosheng's ability to finish things ahead of time is normal, but you can't tell me if you come back early, if you don't have a strong heart, you might think that a thief broke into the house .

"Then I'll take a shower first." Xu Xi said, always feeling awkward sitting here and not saying anything, it's better to leave for a while.

Looking at Xu Xi's leaving figure, Lu Haosheng was still reminiscing about the two sweet potatoes just now, and he can ask Xu Xi to buy more in the future.

Lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, it was not insomnia, it was because of hunger.Xu Xi rubbed his stomach, Kong Chengji had already started singing.I didn't know or feel anything at night before, why can't I stand it now.It must be because the three meals are normal during this period of time, and I have fed my stomach, and now I can't eat one less meal.

"No, I want to eat." Xu Xi sat up, thinking that at this time, Lu Haosheng should have fallen asleep a long time ago, so he probably didn't know that he secretly went to eat something.Xu Xi remembered that Lu Haosheng had bought a box of instant noodles before, and there seemed to be half of it left, so that was all.Xu Xi put on his coat and didn't wear slippers in order not to make any noise. Anyway, Lu Haosheng's house is carpeted.Xu Xi pushed open the door, and it was pitch black outside, which meant that Lu Haosheng had rested.Xu Xi walked lightly to the kitchen, and as expected, he saw the instant noodles that he was thinking about.

"My dear instant noodles, I'll rely on you tonight." Xu Xi hugged the instant noodles and felt that it was a long-lost joy, but he hadn't been happy for too long when he suddenly found that the light on his head was on all of a sudden. He was caught by Lu Haosheng.

"This is you." Lu Haosheng looked at him with doubts in his eyes. He thought it was a thief before, but he didn't expect it to be him.He ran out to steal instant noodles without sleeping in the middle of the night, and he was the only one who could do it.

"Didn't you fall asleep?" Xu Xi immediately hid the instant noodles behind his back, full of remorse in his heart, how could he be arrested for doing something bad after so much effort.

"Can't sleep, so come out and drink some milk, you either." Lu Haosheng passed by Xu Xi's side, then took out milk from the refrigerator, poured himself a glass, and then felt the milk and asked Xu Xi if he wanted it.

"No need." Xu Xi shook his head, and waited for Lu Haosheng to finish his drink and leave, but judging by his posture, he seemed to be exhausting himself.

"Do you have anything else to do?" Xu Xi looked at him, the subtext was to go back quickly after drinking, the instant noodles are still in my hand, I am embarrassed to eat them if you don't leave.

"No." Lu Haosheng waved his hand, he just wanted to watch the show and see how long Xu Xi could act.

I wouldn't leave without you, but Xu Xi definitely wouldn't dare to say this, after all, he still lives with Lu Haosheng now, so it's not good to offend too much.But if he doesn't leave, he can't leave. It's dawn after such a stalemate.

Just when the two were in a stalemate, a discordant voice came from Xu Xi's stomach. Now Xu Xi really wanted to find a hole to get in.

"You bought that sweet potato for yourself." Lu Haosheng said belatedly. He had preconceived it when he saw the sweet potato, thinking it was Xu Xi's supper. Who knew he didn't even have dinner.

Anyway, things are like this, it's useless to cover up any more, it's almost ashamed.

"It's okay, it's like eating instant noodles." Xu Xi generously took out the instant noodles, after all, it's pretty good to have something to eat.

"Okay, to make amends, let me cook it for you. After all, soaking it is not good for the stomach, and it doesn't taste good." Lu Haosheng took the instant noodles from Xu Xi's hand, then went to the kitchen and turned on the fire, boiled the water, and moved That's called fluency.

Xu Xi looked at him, really didn't know what to say, he actually just wanted to make a bowl of instant noodles by himself, it doesn't need to be so troublesome, I feel embarrassed if you do this.Moreover, if someone cooks instant noodles for himself, in the end he still owes him a favor and has to wait here, which is really embarrassing.

When the water boiled, Lu Haosheng put the instant noodles in, then beat the eggs and put in the ham and lettuce, then turned off the fire and scooped up the noodles, and the work was done in less than a while.

"Come on, try it." Lu Haosheng put the noodles in front of Xu Xi, after all, this was the only thing he could offer.

Lu Haosheng was still very happy to see Xu Xi eating satisfactorily, after all, someone who likes what he makes is also a kind of appreciation for him.

"You, don't suffer from boredom alone in the future, so as not to wrong yourself." Lu Haosheng stroked Xu Xi's hair and said lightly.

Xu Xi was eating noodles, when he heard what Lu Haosheng said, he raised his head and looked at him, with unswallowed noodles still in his mouth, his eyes were full of innocence.

"What I mean is that if you say that you haven't eaten, how can I have the nerve to grab your sweet potatoes?" Lu Haosheng quickly explained, he didn't know why he would say those words in a twitch.

"I see that you seem to like it very much, so I didn't say anything. Besides, I used to skip meals at night, it's nothing." Xu Xi swallowed the noodles, took a sip of the soup, and felt his body warm up a lot.

"If I like to eat, you can give it to me. Then if I want to eat delicacies from mountains and seas, you can make it for me too." Lu Haosheng said disapprovingly.

"I can't do that, but I can learn."

Lu Haosheng looked at Xu Xi's innocent appearance, and felt as if he was suddenly attacked by something.

"Okay, let's eat quickly, I'm going back to my room first." Lu Haosheng said lightly, he didn't know what he felt just now, but he knew he shouldn't stay any longer.

Xu Xi looked at the back of Lu Haosheng leaving, and lightly laughed at himself. What he said just now was really ridiculous. Lu Haosheng is such an excellent person, if he just said a word, countless people would help him. myself.She clearly said that she would stop wishful thinking, but she still couldn't help but fall for his tenderness.

After that night, Xu Xi was able to hide from Lu Haosheng. He got up early every morning, made breakfast and put it on the dining table, and then went to work. Having dinner together, Xu Xi still thinks it would be better to read a book.In addition, Lu Haosheng's company was relatively busy during that time, so he got off work very late every day, which saved Xu Xi's embarrassment.

Soon, Xu Xi received his first salary. Although it was only 3000 yuan, it was already a lot.Xu Xi thought that he could rent a cheap house outside, and then pay Lu Haosheng some money first. Although it is not much, it is close to what he owes, and he will always be able to pay it off slowly.But after repaying the money, I will be in short supply for the next month.Xu Xi has already made up his mind that he will eat one meal a day, so that he can persist until next month to get paid. Anyway, he has come here like this before, and now he is just returning to the life he started, so it's no big deal.

It wasn't a dream that belonged to me, so it's time to wake up now.

Xu Xi has been looking for a cheap house nearby for the past two days, which can be closer to where he works, but the rented houses in that place are relatively expensive, and they have to pay three for one, and basically pay the rent. There is no money left.Moreover, there are mixed people living in some cheap places. Xu Xi wanted to find a quieter place so that he could read books at night. Although he didn't graduate from high school, he still wanted to study.

The first thing to do when you get your salary is to treat Lu Haosheng to dinner and pay back the money by the way.

"Why did you think of inviting me to dinner?" Lu Haosheng drank the tea in front of him. He has been busy with the company's affairs recently, so he hasn't sat down to eat with Xu Xi for a long time. It just so happened that the busy time has passed, and he still wants to have dinner with him. Xu Xi came out to eat, but Xu Xi spoke first.

"Just thank you for taking me in during this time." Xu Xi said embarrassingly, he was originally thin-skinned, and he was extremely uncomfortable with these scenes.In addition, he was originally a person who didn't talk much and couldn't speak, so these words were brewed in his heart for a long time before he spoke.

"This is the money I will pay you back. Although it is not much, I will pay back the rest slowly." Xu Xi pushed an envelope in front of Lu Haosheng, feeling uneasy.

"What do you mean?" Lu Haosheng didn't look at the envelope, he felt that something was wrong with Xu Xi today.

"Ah, what's the matter, isn't it enough? But I still need to rent a house, so I can only pay you so much for the time being." Seeing Lu Haosheng's downcast face, Xu Xi thought that he felt that the money was short, but he still had to live. This is already the most I can come up with.

"You want to move out, isn't it good to live with me?" Lu Haosheng secretly tightened his hand holding the teacup, and looked at Xu Xi with cold eyes.

"It's not bad, it's just that it's not good to bother you so much all the time." Xu Xi looked at Lu Haosheng's expression, and felt anxious for a long time. Did he say something wrong to make him unhappy.But he still didn't say anything.

"I don't mind the trouble."

"Ah." Xu Xi didn't hear clearly.

"I said no trouble, and you don't have to move out."

"I know you're being polite, but I've already troubled you so much, it's not good to trouble you any longer. And you see, my feet have already healed, so you don't have to feel guilty." Xu Xi said flatly, with a sentence He didn't say anything, he was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he wouldn't have the courage to move out in the future.

"If you asked me out just to talk about this, I don't think we need to talk about it anymore. No matter what you say, I won't agree. And you have promised me before that you will cook me breakfast and dinner every day. You like this Is it breaking your promise?"

Seeing Lu Haosheng getting angry, Xu Xi was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak. He lowered his head and said to himself, you want to find someone to cook for you, there are so many people waiting in line, why are you looking for me.

"Aren't we doing well now? If I did something wrong, I apologize to you." Lu Haosheng also knew that he was a little too aggressive just now, and explained in a warm voice.

Xu Xi didn't know what to say, until he felt a hand touching his hair, he thought he was still attached.

It's just that sometimes I say no on my lips, but what I think in my heart is that I can be retained.
