Survival

Eight

Yu Sheng picked up his phone, it must be that the takeaway had arrived, but there was no doorbell, so he called.

Yu Sheng said softly, "Let's go, eat."

After going downstairs, Yu Sheng took the food, picked up the dishes, and put them one by one.

But Xiao Chengyi was embarrassed to sit and do nothing, so he got up and asked, "Where are the tableware?"

"The cabinet below, the second shelf."

Generally speaking, people put the tableware on the first shelf, because they often take it, but they don't have it for the rest of their lives, so they can be regarded as a strange person.

They sat on the chairs, each with a bowl of rice in front of them, Yu Sheng couldn't help coughing twice, then went to the bathroom to wash his hands before returning.

"Eat."

Xiao Chengyi nodded, then buried himself in his meal.

Yu Sheng gave him some food. To be honest, Yu Sheng is more like a woman who knows how to take care of others than a girl who needs to be coaxed.

Xiao Chengyi raised his head and said, "You eat."

Yu Sheng smiled, "Don't be so restrained, just relax and eat."

They put aside the so-called table manners this time, and asked about their health while eating.

After eating, Yu Sheng took back the tableware and put them all in the sink, but before putting them away, there was a loud noise in the living room.

Yu Sheng was a person who couldn't be scared. With a shake of his hand, the sound in the kitchen was much louder than the one in the living room.

Yu Sheng avoided the shards of glass and went to the living room to see what was going on, only to see the chair overturned.

And Xiao Chengyi got up in a little embarrassment.

No need to ask to know that he fell and hit the chair.

Yu Sheng looked at him without blinking. He was a little embarrassed, but he didn't say anything.

"You got all my dishes lying on the floor."

She was a little angry, but it was just a trivial matter, she didn't care about it, it was just to scare him.

"You have nothing to say?"

He kept looking at the direction to the right, there was nothing to see there, just a white wall, he just avoided her eyes.

After the rest of his life, he found out again, Xiao Chengyi knew that he was wrong, but he still didn't say sorry.

She chuckled, "Forget it, I'll let Auntie Hour clean tomorrow."

"Let's go."

Yu Sheng turned his head and walked towards the stairs, he followed her footsteps.

This time Yu Sheng took him into the study.Yu Sheng likes to introduce his home to guests, but unfortunately, there are never any guests. Since Xiao Chengyi is here, he can satisfy his own preferences.

She pointed to the book on the table, "Have you read it?"

He stepped forward, glanced, and nodded.

"Is there anything else in your house? I've read everything here."

Xiao Chengyi was a little surprised, the study was so big, she actually read all the books here.

"I'm not very interested in the books here. You are a lawyer. You have a lot of psychology books."

Yu Sheng leaned against the bookcase. The bookcase was so big that it reached the ceiling, so he was not afraid of falling.

"Yes, can I bring it to you another day?"

Yu Sheng raised his head and squinted at him, "No need, I'll go to your house."

He was startled suddenly, trembled and used some body movements to cover up his nervousness.

Yu Sheng got up and walked in front of him, "I just want to see how my painting is doing."

She lowered her head, "This painting was painted before I got married and after my divorce."

He couldn't stop, there were two women in the painting, but in fact it was one, with a white wedding dress and a black wedding dress.

She was describing her marriage, using a painting to describe her life falling from heaven to hell.

Because of a marriage.

She smiled, showing her teeth for the first time, with her head down and her outline clearly visible.

He doesn't often feel sympathy, even when facing the poorest people, he never softens his heart, but the rest of his life makes him feel the slightest heartache.

A woman tried the loss of her loved ones, and tried again the damage caused by her marriage of only two months.

But she smiled lightly, like a person who deliberately hides herself.

But obviously in her paintings, there are so many details, how much she cares about these insignificant things.

"Let me pick it up at your house one day, and let me visit your house by the way."

He nodded, turned and opened the door to leave.

Yu Sheng opened the wooden door, and the raindrops fell on her face.

It was pouring rain outside.

They didn't find it upstairs. If it wasn't for the sound insulation problem, maybe it was because they were too involved in paying attention to some things.

Xiao Chengyi stood on the floor, and he said flatly, "I took a taxi back, thank you today."

"Don't be so polite, don't just call me 'you' from now on, Xiao Chengyi."

He nodded, and when he turned around, Yu Sheng asked behind him, "How do you get a ride?"

He turned his head and saw Yu Sheng looking at him with a smile, "Call me."

"I'll take you back, who dares to pick up customers at this time."

The expected refusal, Yu Sheng teased, "Why don't you stay here?"

"Then you take me back..."

Yu Sheng smiled, shook his head and opened the door.

He found that she should be a girl who loves to laugh, but now she has learned to hide it.It is actually not easy for a 29-year-old woman to achieve this step. Although 29 years old sounds old, who doesn't grow up in the blink of an eye? In fact, is the mentality different from ten years ago?

Yu Sheng's home is quite far from his home, but they will definitely pass by his law firm, so one of their homes is on the east side and the other is on the west side, and the law firm is in the middle.

They don't communicate, but without the slightest bit of weirdness or awkwardness.

The place where he lived was a bit remote, but unexpectedly the house was not big enough for him to live alone, and what was different from Yu Sheng's place was that there were many trees here.

"It must be beautiful at sunrise."

Yu Sheng talked to himself.

"Do you like watching the dawn?"

Xiao Chengyi is different from Yu Sheng, he usually sleeps just right, washes up as soon as he wakes up until he goes to work, he doesn't have any free time.

"kindness."

"Let's find it in the sky."

She was tired of living a deserted life, and he was tired of living a lonely life.

Yu Sheng nodded, reached out to the back seat, took an umbrella, and handed it to Xiao Chengyi.

"Give me back when I come."

He took the umbrella, "Thank you... for the rest of my life."

Yu Sheng smiled, waved his hand and left.

She seemed to smile at him a lot, but what he didn't know was that she actually smiled a lot less since her sister left.

The rain this time should be the heaviest in recent times. Of course Yu Sheng was too bored so he turned on the radio and heard it.

There are still many vehicles on the road, so the traffic is bound to be blocked. Yu Sheng waited for half an hour for the car to move about 100 meters, but the time to think of home is very long.

Yu Sheng stared at the raindrops outside the window, and was actually stunned. She picked up her phone and sent a message to Ye Yun, although she didn't know if it would affect his life.

[Come to my house one day, I want to sell the painting.And... the part-time worker hired earlier, let her come tomorrow. 】

The message was read almost as soon as it was sent, and of course it didn't take long for a reply.

【it is good. 】

Yu Sheng threw the phone on the passenger seat and looked at the crowd of cars with a blank expression, but she could only wait.

The most hated thing in a traffic jam is to see that the road next to it is fine and there is no blockage. This is why Yu Sheng is so convenient when he comes.

She looked at the road, and then looked around, the road signs, flowers and trees, and many other details were all remembered by Yu Sheng.

After waiting for an hour and a half, I finally escaped from the traffic jam. The worst thing about the traffic jam is that nothing happened, why the traffic jam...

After Yu Sheng got home, he went directly upstairs, opened a new paint box, and painted.

She drew almost exactly the same road as the traffic jam just now, and even better, she drew the raindrops on the glass window.

She let the painting hang on the stand like this, thinking that she would frame it the next day.

She opened the curtains, sat on a chair, and half-lyed to look at the night. The rain had stopped, but the dark clouds were still there, and no moonlight could be seen.

She coughed a few times, and now it's not a dry cough, but phlegm. She went to the bathroom to get a tissue and solved it simply.

After throwing away the tissues, she returned to the balcony.

She looked at the buildings at some distance. This is a big city, and high-rise buildings can be seen everywhere. She likes to imagine how they collapsed, which is absolutely stunning.

She knew that day would always come, it was only a matter of time.

Thinking of this, she opened another bracket, put on the drawing board, and drew a scene of the city collapsing.

Real and compelling, like the end of the world.

City painting is much more difficult than others because every detail is difficult to paint.

She is very energetic, not even the slightest bit of tiredness, she is painting this scene that makes her blood boil, and it dawns by accident, but she is not finished yet, she continues to paint, she is not willing to paint less than perfect.

In the end, her paintings can be compared with European and American special effects, which is really too real.

She stretched, and wanted to pick up her phone to confirm the time, but saw a message.

The corners of her mouth curled up without her knowing, but soon collapsed again.

[Come to my law firm tomorrow. 】

She has always been the one who took the initiative, maybe he doesn't want to be passive anymore.

What both parties are greedy for is the excitement, mystery, and freshness that only the two parties can give.

It's just that each has its own needs, but they don't quite resemble each other.

Some feelings cannot be expressed in one word or in a long story.

Yu Sheng found out that it was already noon, and she hurried to the bathroom of the master bedroom to tidy herself up. It took her only a quarter of an hour to take a shower, which was several times faster than her usual time, so she probably didn't realize it.

When she went downstairs, she saw the kitchen from the corner of her eye. It was clean and tidy.

It seems that she finished cleaning before she came back yesterday, she laughed at herself, she just found out now.

She made sure that all the electrical appliances were turned off before leaving, and she left without even eating lunch.

She still spent a lot of time looking for a place to park, and it was still the same, the overpass was the only way to go.

The counter lady was probably too familiar with her, so she let Yu Sheng walk into the corridor without saying anything.

"knocking"

"Come in"

She smiled again.

She pushed the door open and saw his neat short hair again. He raised his head, took a look and asked her to sit down.
