I'm super delicate
Chapter 50
Xi Changlin stopped abruptly.
According to his original plan, he would release He Chi after filming, but he forgot all about it.Now that he has agreed to have dinner with Lou Yang, Xi Changlin always feels a little embarrassed if he goes to the side room over there to open the door.
But the embarrassment only existed for a moment, Xi Changlin cleared up his expression in the blink of an eye, tilted his head and said to Lou Yang: "Mr. Lou, can you wait for me here, I forgot something."
Lou Yang naturally said yes, Xi Changlin smiled apologetically at him, turned around and walked back to the house under the floating gold sun.
Xi Changlin conveniently put the key of the wing room in the costume, so he had to go to the dressing room first.Fortunately, the staff haven't tidied up the area yet. The costumes that were just taken off just now are placed in the same way as they are now.
After Xi Changlin got the key, he went to the wing.
Of course, this bastard didn't think about opening the door for He Chi right away, he was going to give the key to Emi, and told the female assistant to wait at least 10 minutes before opening the lock.
It would be even better if He Chi was still asleep.
But when Xi Changlin turned the corner, he found that his hope was in vain.
——I saw that the door was wide open, and the room was brightly lit. He Chi was sitting in a grand master's chair made of sandalwood, making a pot of tea by his hand. Hearing his footsteps, he slowly raised his eyes.
Xi Changlin: "..."
"I thought you forgot about me." He Chi closed the book in his hand, raised his chin, and said softly to the people outside the door.
"How could it be? I'm not a fish, I only have a seven-second memory." Xi Changlin smiled, stopped slowly, raised his hand to hold the door frame, and knocked it lightly, "But since you have a spare The key, you should have told me earlier, lest I make a trip in vain."
As soon as Xi Changlin opened his mouth, he threw the pot out, speaking naturally and skillfully, and then threw the copper key in his hand, and it fell accurately into He Chi's arms.
"I'm leaving first, you have a good rest." He said.
He Chi pursed his lips: "It's lunch time, don't you plan to bring me with you for charcoal-grilled short ribs and spicy stir-fried clams?"
Sorry, I really didn't intend to take you with me.Xi Zhang Lin Xin said, his face was calm, and there was even a sense of concern in his words: "You haven't had a good rest these days, so it's not suitable to eat this kind of greasy food."
"Are you suitable?" He Chi asked him back.
Xi Changlin raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand, hooked the doorknob, and made a gesture to close the door.He Chi got up at the same time, walked quickly, and raised his hand to block the door that was about to close.
"You really don't intend to take me there?" He Chi lowered his eyes, staring at Xi Changlin, and asked in a low voice.
"Chichi, you are 28 years old, you are an adult, you should learn to eat alone." Xi Changlin said earnestly.
He Chi: "You still called me He Sansui before."
Xi Changlin sighed: "That's a joke, do you understand the joke?"
The door is half closed, the smell of wood lingers in the nostrils, with the bitterness of old age.The two stalemate for a moment, and just when Xi Changlin thought that he would have to use props to make He Chi stop insisting, the man suddenly said "Okay".
Xi Changlin blinked unhurriedly, and when he was about to speak, He Chi moved his hand, touched the corner of his eye, and said with a smile, "Do you know what it means for a cat to blink at someone?"
"What?" Xi Changlin looked back.
"It means the cat is expressing its liking to you." He Chi said softly.
"I'm not a cat." Xi Changlin snorted flatly, finished speaking in a mild manner, and slapped He Chi's face inside.
"That's why you want to have dinner alone with Lou Yang?" He Chi's voice came from across the door, with an unconcealable depression.
Xi Changlin was silent for a few seconds before saying: "No, I made a sideshow by mistake before, and I said casually that I discussed with him where to eat at noon, so the whole crew knew that I had an appointment for lunch with him, so I Now I’m filling in the hole I dug for myself.”
"Where are you going to eat?" He Chi asked.
"I don't know." Xi Changlin answered truthfully.
He Chi's voice was a little lower, and his words were a little aggrieved: "What if he wants to abduct you?"
"Chichi." Xi Changlin felt as if he saw a big dog drenched by the shower, swaying its wet tail, his eyes were fragile and helpless, although he knew it was pretending, but he still softened his tone, "You should know that I have a lot of means, and ordinary people can't do anything to me."
"Then just put on a show? The production team won't really find out if you guys had dinner together." He Chi slowed down and whispered.
Xi Changlin patiently explained to him: "I think Lou Yang might have something to do with me, otherwise he wouldn't take a scene's words seriously."
After a pause for half a second, the young man said again: "Don't act like a kid who didn't get candy on purpose. I don't take this kind of thing, and I have my own sense of proportion. Although I didn't promise you, I won't turn around and have sex with you Someone else ran away."
The people inside the door didn't make a sound, Xi Changlin bent his eyes and said, "I'll go first."
After speaking, he withdrew and left, bypassed the winding corridor, and walked back the way he came.
Taking advantage of the time waiting for Xi Changlin, Lou Yang booked a restaurant not far from the residences of both parties.
Lou Yang was driving, and Xi Changlin was sitting in the co-pilot. The latter raised his hand and pulled down the sun visor. He spoke straight to the point without any detour, but his expression was still smiling: "I don't think we are familiar enough to have a date, Mr. Lou. Mind telling me now, what do you want from me?"
The brown single-sided glass weakens the sunlight, and Xi Changlin's plain face is soaked in the darkness. It is clearly a soft tone, but when the voice hits the heart, it is still heavy.
Lou Yang said softly: "It's nothing, I just want to have a meal with you."
"It's really just eating?" Xi Changlin asked him with a more serious tone.
Lou Yang shifted gears to speed up, and the silver Mercedes glided across the mountain road like a shuttle, like a streamer passing through the blue ribbon, but the car was quiet.The performance of the car is good, and the sound of the engine revving up is not loud.
The driver thought for a while before saying, "Because I'm very interested in you."
Because of the unfriendly way of acquaintance, Lou Yang can be said to be one of the few people who knows Xi Changlin's dark side well, and because the two don't have much related interests, Xi Changlin doesn't bother to pretend in front of him.
Hearing his words, the young man changed into a more comfortable sitting position, raised his brows lightly, and said, "It's a bit unbearable."
"Then look at it from another angle, I want to make friends with you." Lou Yang said, listening carefully, he could hear a little softness hidden in his usual cold voice.
Xi Changlin's bent eyes showed a bit of weirdness: "It stands to reason that even if you don't hate me, you should hate me."
"I'm not a person who hates a person just because my friend hates him." Lou Yang rolled his eyelashes and said in a deep voice.
"That doesn't sound right to me." Xi Changlin refuted him, and at the same time raised his hand for a gesture, "In the beginning, your dislike for me was real."
The driver explained to Xi Changlin: "At that time you didn't break up with Duan Xibo, but hung out with He Chi, and I don't know what Duan Xibo did to you, so I think you are very..."
"Very shameless, profit-seeking, and loafing person." Xi Changlin said Lou Yang's difficult words, and nodded perfunctorily: "Well, it seems that Mr. Lou is a person who knows how to correct when he knows his mistakes."
Lou Yang turned the steering wheel and passed the curve, giving a faint "hmm".
Xi Changlin: "What about now? What is your impression of me now?"
Lou Yang thought for a while and said, "A person with a strong learning ability."
"It's the first time I've heard this description." Xi Changlin couldn't help laughing.
Speechless all the way.
Bored, Xi Changlin took out his mobile phone and poked it to stimulate the battlefield. Seeing that He Chi was not online, he threw a WeChat invitation, and the latter went online in seconds and sent a request to Xi Changlin to form a team.
They played two games together, both of which were very auspicious. Having chicken tonight made Xi Changlin wonder whether he should eat big chicken tonight to celebrate.Just when the destination arrived, Lou Yang parked the car, took Xi Changlin upstairs, and walked into the reserved private room.
"The short ribs and clams you want are already ordered." Lou Yang opened the seat for Xi Changlin, picked up the menu from the side, and handed it over.
This is a private box facing the street. The table for two is stylishly arranged. The wooden table and window have regular textures. Looking out, green vines climb up the window, and the slightly curly leaves sway in the wind, as if greeting the guests. .
The sunlight stopped politely by the table, and the cool breeze was blowing from the hidden air-conditioning outlet, making the temperature extremely comfortable.
Xi Changlin sat in the chair, held the lemon grapefruit tea just served, thanked Louyang, and then said to the waiter beside him, "Two servings of mung bean paste and pumpkin soup."
It can be regarded as a kind of return to Lou Yang.
Under the recommendation of the waiter and Lou Yang, Xi Changlin ordered two more dishes and one soup.
After a meal, it is not difficult to see that Lou Yang is a well-educated person, he eats without talking, his back is straight from the beginning to the end, his manner is elegant, and he takes good care of Xi Changlin.
The latter did not refuse, and accepted it very naturally.
After dinner, put on fruit dessert.They chatted briefly for a while, and between the words, Xi Changlin heard that Lou Yang wanted to send him back.Xi Changlin was about to agree with the mentality that the driver would give it away, but at the moment he tilted his head, he saw a familiar car parked at the corner of the street through the window.
——The limited edition Bugatti Veyron that was damaged by Xi Changlin Pengci on a rainy night in the mountains.
"When was it repaired? It was repaired so quickly." Xi Changlin asked such a question out of focus.
The car was extremely eye-catching, and I don't know how long it had been parked. The pedestrians who came and went all took out their mobile phones to take pictures, and even women in hot clothes knocked on the window, wanting to have an encounter.
Xi Changlin glanced across the car, then turned his head and smiled at Lou Yang: "If someone comes to pick me up, I won't bother Teacher Lou."
Lou Yang raised his eyes and looked over, although he understood clearly, he still asked, "Is it He Chi?"
The young man smiled again, noncommittal, just thanked him for his hospitality, then got up and left.
Lou Yang sat still in his seat, waited until he saw Xi Changlin cross the street, opened the passenger door and got in, then rang the bell to call the waiter to pay the bill.
But the waiter told him that their bill had been settled half an hour earlier.
Inside the Bugatti Veyron, He Chi took the seat belt buckle from Xi Changlin's hand, helped him press it into the groove, and then asked calmly, "Is the meal to your liking?"
Xi Changlin reached out and rummaged in the storage box for a while, pulled out a mobile power bank and an eye mask, and then answered him: "It's okay, but the seafood is not as delicious as Xie Dongcun's."
He Chi snorted without emotion and started the car.
"What did you have for lunch?" Xi Changlin asked suddenly when he charged his phone, threw it together with the power bank in the back seat, and straightened his blindfold.
"I haven't eaten yet." He Chi said.
The expected answer.
Xi Changlin pursed his lips and smiled, turned his head, touched the side of He Chi's face with the side of the blindfold, and said, "Would you like me to cook a meal for you?"
"Then you can poison me to death smoothly and get rid of me." He Chi said expressionlessly.
"I still cook boiled eggs very well, and the technology of instant noodles is also very mature. Isn't the combination of the two the perfect match?" Xi Changlin said with a smile.
"Forget it." While waiting for the traffic light, He Chi took the time to glare at Xi Changlin, "Where do you want to go?"
Xi Changlin looked puzzled, "Where else can I go back to except that small private room?"
"You can still go back to my side." He Chi raised his hand and rubbed the man's head, "It's not like I don't know that I'm ready for everything."
"It's not good to live together before the relationship is confirmed." Xi Changlin looked embarrassed.
He Chi: "Then you confirm our relationship?"
The young man put on a straight face: "Think about the deal for a month, people must keep their promises, and they can't break their promises and get fat."
"Why does it take a month?" He Chi was a little puzzled, "Based on what I know about you, you can think clearly about the stakes in three minutes."
"Because a lot of things can happen in a month..." Xi Changlin leaned back in his chair, put the blindfold on his eyes, and sighed indistinctly. After a long time, he finally said the second half of the sentence: "This way you There were plenty of opportunities to repent."
When the car became quiet, He Chi turned on the car stereo and played a soft music.
The sound of Xi Changlin's breathing beside him gradually became slow and long. He thought the young man was asleep, so he planned to pull over and go to the thin blanket behind him, but just as he slowed down, he heard Xi Changlin's soft voice:
"Chi Chi, you didn't even ask me what Lou Yang wanted me for?"
He Chi curled his lips, parked in the emergency lane, fetched the blanket from the back seat, shook it out and put it on Xi Changlin, before saying, "Sima Zhao's heart."
Xi Changlin wrinkled his nose, clutched the edge of the blanket, shrunk himself into a ball, and gradually lowered his voice:
"You can't say that, he is willing to establish a good relationship with me, and it will be much more convenient to do things in the future. Think about it, Yi Qingbo and Mu Xibei had such an ambiguous relationship in "Magic Day", and the short film of POI's new autumn product before The theme of lust, in this way, it is very easy for me to take advantage of his popularity and speculate on his CP."
"Yo, you still want to make CP with him?" He Chi said with a half smile.
"Isn't it just a false hype? It's not true, why are you so excited." Xi Changlin said indifferently, "Don't you know what fans like now? It's just following the trend of the times. If I want to be popular, borrow With this wave of operations, it will jump faster."
He Chi: "You want to be popular that much?"
"I don't think about it at all. If you become red, you won't be clean." Xi Changlin helplessly spread his hands, and the corners of his lips twitched slightly, "But... there is no way, this road is the easiest one I can take now. .”
After that, Xi Changlin didn't speak again.
He Chi drove Xi Changlin back to his villa, but this time, as soon as the Bugatti Veyron drove through the iron gate, the passenger in the passenger seat woke up, and He Chi didn't have the slightest chance to carry him upstairs.
The evening cherry blossoms on the side of the road have already faded away, but there are new seasonal flowers in full bloom. When you open the car door, a burst of cicadas chirp into your ears, and the breath of summer blows in your face.
Xi Changlin blinked his still-open eyes, tilted his head, and said to He Chi, "I want to eat cantaloupe."
He Chi immediately asked the housekeeper to cut fruit in the kitchen.
Xi Changlin said again: "You really don't want me to prepare a big meal for you by myself?"
"Forget it, I still want to live for decades." He Chi finished speaking angrily, and raised his hand to beckon him in.
In view of Xi Changlin's obsession with instant noodles, He Chi asked the cook to prepare him a bowl of tomato beef brisket noodles for lunch.In the long afternoon, the two of them nestled on the beanbag couch and cleared a certain game together. In the evening, they ate a large plate of chicken.
The cook obeyed He Chi's order, instead of using shiitake mushrooms as a base, she fried it into spicy chicken.Her hand-rolling skills can be called a must, and the noodles are chewy and chewy.
The broth of this big plate chicken was so rich and mellow that Xi Changlin ate two bowls for the first time.
During this period of time, whether it was due to the weather or something else, Xi Changlin's appetite became worse and worse. He could only eat a few mouthfuls of food, and at most a bowl of soup.
Jia Guoping, who made a private deal with He Chi, reported Xi Changlin's situation three times a day, and mentioned this three times a day, which made He Chi worry for a long time.
Putting a bowl of sour radish and duck soup for Xi Changlin, He Chi asked casually, "Before going to Ninghai City, do you want to have another physical examination?"
"Why do you need a physical examination again?" Xi Changlin frowned upon hearing this.
"If there is any disease, find it early and treat it early." He Chi picked another vegetable for him and put it in the bowl.
"I can't eat anymore." Xi Changlin pushed the bowl away from his face, "I don't want to go to the hospital either, my own body knows it by itself."
He Chi nodded angrily: "Yes, you have always been like this, your body tosses on its own."
Seeing that the people across the table had no tendency to lift their chopsticks at all, He Chi had no choice but to resort to his trump card: "While you eat, listen to me tell you about Huzishan."
Xi Changlin stared speechlessly, stared at He Chi for a while, then dragged the soup bowl in front of him, scooped up a spoonful and drank it.
"Huzishan is one of the mining sites of the Gong family in the last century. Communications were not developed back then, so the accidents in the mine were tightly sealed off. Even the villagers in Yaohe Village under Huzishan didn't know that there were so many dead bodies. were transported out through their villages.
Combined with the information from Emi, the Gong family determined the number of casualties in the accident to be 23 dead and 1 missing. Interestingly, because the missing person did not enter the mine tunnel with the 23 dead people, they thought that the missing person could not bear it. Digging hard to escape, or lost in the mountains and forests.
But I went there yesterday, went deep into the mine tunnel, and found a dead body and a diary that rotted when I flipped through it.The diary was restored by me with props. After the missing person entered the mine and was infected with the X virus, he recorded all his illnesses in it. "
Hearing this, Xi Changlin raised his eyes abruptly, but He Chi actually scooped out another spoonful of soup. Looking carefully, the spoon was full of radishes.
"Mister, eat radish in winter and ginger in summer, you've got it upside down." Xi Changlin guarded his bowl expressionlessly.
He Chi: "How many yuan can you eat? While you eat, I will read you the diary of the missing person."
Xi Changlin refused: "I have eyes and can read."
The boss surnamed He insisted: "Hey, you eat, I will read to you."
Xi Changlin: "..."
The young man found that he was a little bit overwhelmed by him.
"April 197, 4x
There are too many forks in the depths of the mine, I accidentally lost my way and lost contact with the workers...
July 197, 4x
I still haven't walked out of this deep cave, my health is getting worse and worse, and it's difficult to breathe, it seems that there are monsters that suck people's energy hidden in this mine...
July 197, 4x
I found a strange thing in the depths of the mine. It grows on a purple stone, it is golden, it smells bad, and it dissolves very quickly in water...
July 197, 4x
The dry food and water I brought were all exhausted, and my health became weaker and weaker, and it was difficult for me to even walk, which was not the case yesterday.I think maybe it has something to do with my desperate attempt to catch a bird that strayed here...
......"
This diary only records seven days.It should be on this page of April [-]th. There is only a pencil scratch on it, and there is no record after that. It can be inferred that the missing person died on this day.
"It didn't record why he got separated from his coworkers, but the date of death was much earlier than the other 23." He Chi closed the old diary, looked up at Xi Changlin's bowl, saw two pieces of radish missing, Only then did he calm down the dissatisfaction in his eyes, "The clues that can be extracted from this diary: X virus is contained in a golden substance, which is tasteless and soluble in water; after being infected with the virus, if you exercise vigorously, it will speed up the poisoning process."
Xi Changlin shook the small spoon in the soup bowl up and down, scooped up a piece of radish, let it fall, and scooped it up again. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Didn't you collect a sample of the X virus when you went?"
"The inside of that mine is clean. I found neither the golden substance nor the purple stone attached to it." He Chi said.
"Sure enough, that mine tunnel is still in use." Xi Changlin said "ah", "Did you take protective measures when you went?"
"Am I the kind of person who is careless?" He Chi bent his lips and smiled, took away the bowls, chopsticks and spoons that Xi Changlin had abused, went to the kitchen to bring out a fruit plate, and placed it by the table.
Xi Changlin looked serious: "I'm afraid you suddenly lost your mind."
He Chi: "If you don't have a brain, you can't come back. If you can't come back, you won't be able to see you, so how can I not have a brain?"
"Are you talking about tongue twisters?" Xi Changlin picked up a piece of cantaloupe, glared at He Chi, and said, "Let me clear my mind. The incubation period of X virus varies from person to person, and it will be accelerated by strenuous exercise, and I Grandpa had been recuperating in bed all those years ago, so it dragged on for a long time...but how should this strenuous exercise be defined?"
"Maybe it has something to do with the secretion of adrenaline, maybe some specific exercise stimulates a special nerve, causing the poison to intensify." He Chi changed his position, sat next to Xi Changlin, and also picked up a piece of fruit, "This, Even Shengming Pharmaceutical Factory is still studying it."
Xi Changlin said "Oh" and fell into deep thought.
Time passed bit by bit, the sky light outside the window gradually faded, the rays of the sun burned out, a large piece of blue spread out in the sky, and the stars lit up, shining light on the established trajectory.
The young man moved from the dining table to the lazy sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, his dark eyes facing the starlight.
After sorting out all the information, he called out "Chichi" in a drawn-out tone, and then said, "It suddenly occurred to me that I'm going to Ninghai City tomorrow. You won't want to follow me?"
According to his original plan, he would release He Chi after filming, but he forgot all about it.Now that he has agreed to have dinner with Lou Yang, Xi Changlin always feels a little embarrassed if he goes to the side room over there to open the door.
But the embarrassment only existed for a moment, Xi Changlin cleared up his expression in the blink of an eye, tilted his head and said to Lou Yang: "Mr. Lou, can you wait for me here, I forgot something."
Lou Yang naturally said yes, Xi Changlin smiled apologetically at him, turned around and walked back to the house under the floating gold sun.
Xi Changlin conveniently put the key of the wing room in the costume, so he had to go to the dressing room first.Fortunately, the staff haven't tidied up the area yet. The costumes that were just taken off just now are placed in the same way as they are now.
After Xi Changlin got the key, he went to the wing.
Of course, this bastard didn't think about opening the door for He Chi right away, he was going to give the key to Emi, and told the female assistant to wait at least 10 minutes before opening the lock.
It would be even better if He Chi was still asleep.
But when Xi Changlin turned the corner, he found that his hope was in vain.
——I saw that the door was wide open, and the room was brightly lit. He Chi was sitting in a grand master's chair made of sandalwood, making a pot of tea by his hand. Hearing his footsteps, he slowly raised his eyes.

"Are you suitable?" He Chi asked him back.
Xi Changlin raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand, hooked the doorknob, and made a gesture to close the door.He Chi got up at the same time, walked quickly, and raised his hand to block the door that was about to close.
"You really don't intend to take me there?" He Chi lowered his eyes, staring at Xi Changlin, and asked in a low voice.
"Chichi, you are 28 years old, you are an adult, you should learn to eat alone." Xi Changlin said earnestly.
He Chi: "You still called me He Sansui before."
Xi Changlin sighed: "That's a joke, do you understand the joke?"
The door is half closed, the smell of wood lingers in the nostrils, with the bitterness of old age.The two stalemate for a moment, and just when Xi Changlin thought that he would have to use props to make He Chi stop insisting, the man suddenly said "Okay".
Xi Changlin blinked unhurriedly, and when he was about to speak, He Chi moved his hand, touched the corner of his eye, and said with a smile, "Do you know what it means for a cat to blink at someone?"

The sunlight stopped politely by the table, and the cool breeze was blowing from the hidden air-conditioning outlet, making the temperature extremely comfortable.
Xi Changlin sat in the chair, held the lemon grapefruit tea just served, thanked Louyang, and then said to the waiter beside him, "Two servings of mung bean paste and pumpkin soup."
It can be regarded as a kind of return to Lou Yang.
Under the recommendation of the waiter and Lou Yang, Xi Changlin ordered two more dishes and one soup.
After a meal, it is not difficult to see that Lou Yang is a well-educated person, he eats without talking, his back is straight from the beginning to the end, his manner is elegant, and he takes good care of Xi Changlin.
The latter did not refuse, and accepted it very naturally.
After dinner, put on fruit dessert.They chatted briefly for a while, and between the words, Xi Changlin heard that Lou Yang wanted to send him back.Xi Changlin was about to agree with the mentality that the driver would give it away, but at the moment he tilted his head, he saw a familiar car parked at the corner of the street through the window.
——The limited edition Bugatti Veyron that was damaged by Xi Changlin Pengci on a rainy night in the mountains.
"When was it repaired? It was repaired so quickly." Xi Changlin asked such a question out of focus.
The car was extremely eye-catching, and I don't know how long it had been parked. The pedestrians who came and went all took out their mobile phones to take pictures, and even women in hot clothes knocked on the window, wanting to have an encounter.
Xi Changlin glanced across the car, then turned his head and smiled at Lou Yang: "If someone comes to pick me up, I won't bother Teacher Lou."
Lou Yang raised his eyes and looked over, although he understood clearly, he still asked, "Is it He Chi?"
The young man smiled again, noncommittal, just thanked him for his hospitality, then got up and left.
Lou Yang sat still in his seat, waited until he saw Xi Changlin cross the street, opened the passenger door and got in, then rang the bell to call the waiter to pay the bill.
But the waiter told him that their bill had been settled half an hour earlier.
Inside the Bugatti Veyron, He Chi took the seat belt buckle from Xi Changlin's hand, helped him press it into the groove, and then asked calmly, "Is the meal to your liking?"
Xi Changlin reached out and rummaged in the storage box for a while, pulled out a mobile power bank and an eye mask, and then answered him: "It's okay, but the seafood is not as delicious as Xie Dongcun's."
He Chi snorted without emotion and started the car.
"What did you have for lunch?" Xi Changlin asked suddenly when he charged his phone, threw it together with the power bank in the back seat, and straightened his blindfold.
"I haven't eaten yet." He Chi said.
The expected answer.
Xi Changlin pursed his lips and smiled, turned his head, touched the side of He Chi's face with the side of the blindfold, and said, "Would you like me to cook a meal for you?"
"Then you can poison me to death smoothly and get rid of me." He Chi said expressionlessly.
"I still cook boiled eggs very well, and the technology of instant noodles is also very mature. Isn't the combination of the two the perfect match?" Xi Changlin said with a smile.
"Forget it." While waiting for the traffic light, He Chi took the time to glare at Xi Changlin, "Where do you want to go?"
Xi Changlin looked puzzled, "Where else can I go back to except that small private room?"
"You can still go back to my side." He Chi raised his hand and rubbed the man's head, "It's not like I don't know that I'm ready for everything."
"It's not good to live together before the relationship is confirmed." Xi Changlin looked embarrassed.
He Chi: "Then you confirm our relationship?"
The young man put on a straight face: "Think about the deal for a month, people must keep their promises, and they can't break their promises and get fat."
"Why does it take a month?" He Chi was a little puzzled, "Based on what I know about you, you can think clearly about the stakes in three minutes."
"Because a lot of things can happen in a month..." Xi Changlin leaned back in his chair, put the blindfold on his eyes, and sighed indistinctly. After a long time, he finally said the second half of the sentence: "This way you There were plenty of opportunities to repent."
When the car became quiet, He Chi turned on the car stereo and played a soft music.
The sound of Xi Changlin's breathing beside him gradually became slow and long. He thought the young man was asleep, so he planned to pull over and go to the thin blanket behind him, but just as he slowed down, he heard Xi Changlin's soft voice:
"Chi Chi, you didn't even ask me what Lou Yang wanted me for?"
He Chi curled his lips, parked in the emergency lane, fetched the blanket from the back seat, shook it out and put it on Xi Changlin, before saying, "Sima Zhao's heart."
Xi Changlin wrinkled his nose, clutched the edge of the blanket, shrunk himself into a ball, and gradually lowered his voice:
"You can't say that, he is willing to establish a good relationship with me, and it will be much more convenient to do things in the future. Think about it, Yi Qingbo and Mu Xibei had such an ambiguous relationship in "Magic Day", and the short film of POI's new autumn product before The theme of lust, in this way, it is very easy for me to take advantage of his popularity and speculate on his CP."
"Yo, you still want to make CP with him?" He Chi said with a half smile.
"Isn't it just a false hype? It's not true, why are you so excited." Xi Changlin said indifferently, "Don't you know what fans like now? It's just following the trend of the times. If I want to be popular, borrow With this wave of operations, it will jump faster."
He Chi: "You want to be popular that much?"
"I don't think about it at all. If you become red, you won't be clean." Xi Changlin helplessly spread his hands, and the corners of his lips twitched slightly, "But... there is no way, this road is the easiest one I can take now. .”
After that, Xi Changlin didn't speak again.
He Chi drove Xi Changlin back to his villa, but this time, as soon as the Bugatti Veyron drove through the iron gate, the passenger in the passenger seat woke up, and He Chi didn't have the slightest chance to carry him upstairs.
The evening cherry blossoms on the side of the road have already faded away, but there are new seasonal flowers in full bloom. When you open the car door, a burst of cicadas chirp into your ears, and the breath of summer blows in your face.
Xi Changlin blinked his still-open eyes, tilted his head, and said to He Chi, "I want to eat cantaloupe."
He Chi immediately asked the housekeeper to cut fruit in the kitchen.
Xi Changlin said again: "You really don't want me to prepare a big meal for you by myself?"
"Forget it, I still want to live for decades." He Chi finished speaking angrily, and raised his hand to beckon him in.
In view of Xi Changlin's obsession with instant noodles, He Chi asked the cook to prepare him a bowl of tomato beef brisket noodles for lunch.In the long afternoon, the two of them nestled on the beanbag couch and cleared a certain game together. In the evening, they ate a large plate of chicken.
The cook obeyed He Chi's order, instead of using shiitake mushrooms as a base, she fried it into spicy chicken.Her hand-rolling skills can be called a must, and the noodles are chewy and chewy.
The broth of this big plate chicken was so rich and mellow that Xi Changlin ate two bowls for the first time.
During this period of time, whether it was due to the weather or something else, Xi Changlin's appetite became worse and worse. He could only eat a few mouthfuls of food, and at most a bowl of soup.
Jia Guoping, who made a private deal with He Chi, reported Xi Changlin's situation three times a day, and mentioned this three times a day, which made He Chi worry for a long time.
Putting a bowl of sour radish and duck soup for Xi Changlin, He Chi asked casually, "Before going to Ninghai City, do you want to have another physical examination?"
"Why do you need a physical examination again?" Xi Changlin frowned upon hearing this.
"If there is any disease, find it early and treat it early." He Chi picked another vegetable for him and put it in the bowl.
"I can't eat anymore." Xi Changlin pushed the bowl away from his face, "I don't want to go to the hospital either, my own body knows it by itself."
He Chi nodded angrily: "Yes, you have always been like this, your body tosses on its own."
Seeing that the people across the table had no tendency to lift their chopsticks at all, He Chi had no choice but to resort to his trump card: "While you eat, listen to me tell you about Huzishan."
Xi Changlin stared speechlessly, stared at He Chi for a while, then dragged the soup bowl in front of him, scooped up a spoonful and drank it.
"Huzishan is one of the mining sites of the Gong family in the last century. Communications were not developed back then, so the accidents in the mine were tightly sealed off. Even the villagers in Yaohe Village under Huzishan didn't know that there were so many dead bodies. were transported out through their villages.
Combined with the information from Emi, the Gong family determined the number of casualties in the accident to be 23 dead and 1 missing. Interestingly, because the missing person did not enter the mine tunnel with the 23 dead people, they thought that the missing person could not bear it. Digging hard to escape, or lost in the mountains and forests.
But I went there yesterday, went deep into the mine tunnel, and found a dead body and a diary that rotted when I flipped through it.The diary was restored by me with props. After the missing person entered the mine and was infected with the X virus, he recorded all his illnesses in it. "
Hearing this, Xi Changlin raised his eyes abruptly, but He Chi actually scooped out another spoonful of soup. Looking carefully, the spoon was full of radishes.
"Mister, eat radish in winter and ginger in summer, you've got it upside down." Xi Changlin guarded his bowl expressionlessly.
He Chi: "How many yuan can you eat? While you eat, I will read you the diary of the missing person."
Xi Changlin refused: "I have eyes and can read."
The boss surnamed He insisted: "Hey, you eat, I will read to you."
Xi Changlin: "..."
The young man found that he was a little bit overwhelmed by him.
"April 197, 4x
There are too many forks in the depths of the mine, I accidentally lost my way and lost contact with the workers...
July 197, 4x
I still haven't walked out of this deep cave, my health is getting worse and worse, and it's difficult to breathe, it seems that there are monsters that suck people's energy hidden in this mine...
July 197, 4x
I found a strange thing in the depths of the mine. It grows on a purple stone, it is golden, it smells bad, and it dissolves very quickly in water...
July 197, 4x
The dry food and water I brought were all exhausted, and my health became weaker and weaker, and it was difficult for me to even walk, which was not the case yesterday.I think maybe it has something to do with my desperate attempt to catch a bird that strayed here...
......"
This diary only records seven days.It should be on this page of April [-]th. There is only a pencil scratch on it, and there is no record after that. It can be inferred that the missing person died on this day.
"It didn't record why he got separated from his coworkers, but the date of death was much earlier than the other 23." He Chi closed the old diary, looked up at Xi Changlin's bowl, saw two pieces of radish missing, Only then did he calm down the dissatisfaction in his eyes, "The clues that can be extracted from this diary: X virus is contained in a golden substance, which is tasteless and soluble in water; after being infected with the virus, if you exercise vigorously, it will speed up the poisoning process."
Xi Changlin shook the small spoon in the soup bowl up and down, scooped up a piece of radish, let it fall, and scooped it up again. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Didn't you collect a sample of the X virus when you went?"
"The inside of that mine is clean. I found neither the golden substance nor the purple stone attached to it." He Chi said.
"Sure enough, that mine tunnel is still in use." Xi Changlin said "ah", "Did you take protective measures when you went?"
"Am I the kind of person who is careless?" He Chi bent his lips and smiled, took away the bowls, chopsticks and spoons that Xi Changlin had abused, went to the kitchen to bring out a fruit plate, and placed it by the table.
Xi Changlin looked serious: "I'm afraid you suddenly lost your mind."
He Chi: "If you don't have a brain, you can't come back. If you can't come back, you won't be able to see you, so how can I not have a brain?"
"Are you talking about tongue twisters?" Xi Changlin picked up a piece of cantaloupe, glared at He Chi, and said, "Let me clear my mind. The incubation period of X virus varies from person to person, and it will be accelerated by strenuous exercise, and I Grandpa had been recuperating in bed all those years ago, so it dragged on for a long time...but how should this strenuous exercise be defined?"
"Maybe it has something to do with the secretion of adrenaline, maybe some specific exercise stimulates a special nerve, causing the poison to intensify." He Chi changed his position, sat next to Xi Changlin, and also picked up a piece of fruit, "This, Even Shengming Pharmaceutical Factory is still studying it."
Xi Changlin said "Oh" and fell into deep thought.
Time passed bit by bit, the sky light outside the window gradually faded, the rays of the sun burned out, a large piece of blue spread out in the sky, and the stars lit up, shining light on the established trajectory.
The young man moved from the dining table to the lazy sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, his dark eyes facing the starlight.
After sorting out all the information, he called out "Chichi" in a drawn-out tone, and then said, "It suddenly occurred to me that I'm going to Ninghai City tomorrow. You won't want to follow me?"
