you rely on me to like you

After breakfast, Chi Xu said winkingly:

"Uncle, I'll do the dishes."

Zhong Haochen, who was used to being single and used to doing all the housework by himself, was stunned for a moment, remembering Chi Xu's grand ambitions before he wanted to live in, with a smile on the corner of his mouth:

"Ah."

Chi Xu smiled at Zhong Haochen, and put the bowls and plates together.

But in the next second, he couldn't laugh anymore.

Before he picked up the tableware that was stacked together, one of the chopsticks and two spoons were scattered on the table, making a muffled sound.

"Fortunately, it's a wooden dining table." Chi Xu sneaked a glance at Zhong Haochen next to him, secretly rejoicing.

If it was marble, it would be absolutely loud, and that would be ugly.

"Hehe~" Chi Xu smiled awkwardly, put down the tableware in his hand, and picked up the chopsticks and spoons that fell on the table.

"Well, uncle, you can go to rest. Just leave it to me here."

"Okay." Zhong Haochen looked at the crooked tableware, and had no intention of stopping it.

After coming to the living room and sitting down on the sofa, Zhong Haochen couldn't help looking in the direction of the kitchen.

The kitchen in his house is open, with the dining table next to the kitchen.

There is a four or five meter long corridor between the dining table and the living room.

Overall, it's not far.

Sitting on the sofa, Zhong Haochen could see all of Chi Xu's movements.

I saw Chi Xu carefully put the tableware in the sink, and stared at it for a while, his eyes were dazed, as if he couldn't know what to do.

Chi Xu...can't wash dishes?

Thinking of this, Zhong Haochen couldn't help standing up.

But after thinking about it, he finally sat down again.

"that……"

Not far away, Chi Xu looked at Zhong Haochen as if asking for help, and tentatively said:

"Uncle...how about...I start washing the dishes after lunch?"

Zhong Haochen suppressed a smile, and the corners of his mouth could not be restrained from rising.

This little guy really doesn't know how to wash dishes.

"Yes! But as a punishment, you need to help me when cooking at noon."

"what……"

Zhong Haochen didn't force himself, he looked away, picked up the book on the side and prepared to read it.

"Okay! Let's do it!" Chi Xu was helpless!

Who told him, he really can't wash dishes!

"Okay!" Zhong Haochen hid his smile, got up and walked to Chi Xu's side.

Chi Xu consciously gave up the best position in front of the pool, and obediently stood aside, staring at Zhong Haochen's dishwashing movements.

"It's so complicated!"

Chi Xu sighed while Zhong Haochen was washing the dishes.

It turns out that when washing dishes, you need to clean up the residue first, rinse, pour the detergent, and then rinse such troublesome steps!

"What?" Zhong Haochen asked knowingly.

"Oh, it's nothing. Uncle, you've worked hard!" Chi Xu turned around and went to the living room with a smile.

Looking at Chi Xu's back, Zhong Haochen lowered his head and smiled.

When he was full and had no housework to do, Chi Xu took an advanced math book for the first time and nestled on the sofa.

In the beginning, it was as if I had been beaten with blood, and I drew and drew with a pen and paper.

Too bad it only lasted 5 minutes!

"too difficult!"

Chi Xu threw the book away, looked at the ceiling and sighed.

"What?" Zhong Haochen nestled on the single sofa and looked at his professional books, but in fact his thoughts were all on the "secret" last night.

"Advanced math is really too difficult!" Chi Xu pouted, a little wanting to cry:

"Seeing that there is still more than a month to go for the retake class, but I am still confused about this book, completely confused.

If things go on like this, it will be useless to retake the course, so what about the exam! "

Zhong Haochen listened to it, looked at Chi Xu's pitiful appearance with the sky falling, and smiled slightly:

"How about... I help you with tutoring?"

"Ah? Uncle...Are you serious?" Chi Xu was a little confused.

Although Lin Yiyi suggested to him more than once to ask Zhong Haochen to help him with tuition, but after all, he didn't quite trust Zhong Haochen who had obviously graduated for many years!

"Why? Don't you believe me?" Zhong Haochen saw the meaning in Chi Xu's eyes.

"No, no, how come!" Chi Xu quickly denied.

"Well! Then do a set of test papers first and let me see your level. Then, targeted tutoring?" Zhong Haochen put down the book in his hand and looked at Chi Xu.

"Ah? Exam paper?" Chi Xu was even more confused, not knowing what was going on!

Uncle, why are there still test papers?

"Well, I helped my younger brother with tutoring before." Zhong Haochen didn't intend to hide the existence of Zhong Xicheng.

"So it's like this, I thought..." Chi Xu patted his forehead, frowning slightly.

What is he thinking?For a moment, he actually thought that his uncle had specially prepared the test paper for him.

Really, could it be that he was "harassed" by Ke Luo, and even he started to think wildly.

It's just that he didn't realize that when he heard Zhong Haochen say this, a trace of loss inexplicably flashed deep in his heart, and it was fleeting.

"Why?"

"Nothing, nothing." Chi Xu shook his head repeatedly.

In the following time, Zhong Haochen first asked Chi Xu to do a set of test papers to roughly evaluate his mastery of advanced mathematics.

Then, I used the whole morning to formulate a tutoring plan in a targeted manner.

"I'm going...Uncle, you...Are you sure that your full-time job is not a teacher?" Chi Xu looked at the tuition plan on a whole page of A4 paper, listing a bunch of tutoring steps in a framed manner, and was amazed.

Zhong Haochen was in a good mood.

He likes Chi Xu's high hat.

It's not in vain. When he helped his younger brother before, he put a lot of thought into it.

……

When going to work that day, Zhong Haochen habitually checked Moments during his lunch break.

Ever since he got to know Chi Xu, he has hardly left behind such things as "circle of friends".

Although, the probability of Chi Xu posting in Moments is not high.

Flipping through the pages, Zhong Haochen saw what Lin Yiyi had done 10 minutes ago:

"The master said, I will commit a crime this year. Well... I have to be careful, after all, I am still young."

"Master?" Zhong Haochen said softly.

"Master" again?

Chi Xu also mentioned this term when he was drunk a few days ago.

After thinking for a while, Zhong Haochen posted a Moments update that only Lin Yiyi could see:

"Grandmaster?"

Then, put down the phone and lie on the couch in the office for a morning break.

That's right, when he came to city A and moved to Shaoyang's company, he became Shaoyang's immediate boss, and the office was nearly double the size of the previous one in city C.

When working in the afternoon, Shaoyang came to report to Zhong Haochen.

"I'm still negotiating the project of Mingyuan Company, the progress..."

"Ding~" Zhong Haochen's WeChat voice interrupted Shaoyang.

Zhong Haochen didn't look at the phone, and signaled Shaoyang to continue.

"The progress has been..."

"Ding~" It was Zhong Haochen's WeChat voice again.

Shaoyang looked at the mobile phone next to Zhong Haochen, saw that the other party was staring at him seriously, collected his thoughts, and continued to report to work.

By the time Zhong Haochen picked up his phone to check WeChat, it was already an hour later.

The wechat was sent by Lin Yiyi.

Lin Yiyi: "Uncle, are you looking for a master? My mother knows one, Traling."

Lin Yiyi: "My brother was also taken to visit by my aunt, but he is alive."

Seeing these two pieces of information, Zhong Haochen had a vague guess in his heart.

Chen Xing: "Really? I'm a little confused recently, and I'm looking for a master to give me some advice."

"Ding ~"

The other party sent a message quickly.

Lin Yiyi: "Yes, yes, it is very spiritual. The master said that my brother cannot marry a wife, so my aunt insisted that my brother should fall in love quickly. Do you think it is spiritual? (smirking expression)"

Zhong Haochen: "..."

So, this is why Chi Xu is anxious to fall in love?

Staring at the latest message, Zhong Haochen had mixed feelings in his heart.

Why did the master say that Chi Xu "cannot marry a wife"?Chi Xu, he...

For a moment, Zhong Haochen's mind was a little confused, and Chi Xu's cute and well-behaved handsome face entered his mind without hesitation.

"Ding ~"

The sound of WeChat broke Zhong Haochen's thoughts.

Lin Yiyi: "Uncle, are you going to visit the master? I'll give you the address. (smirking expression)"

Zhong Haochen: "..."

Staring at the last smirk expression, why does it feel weird.

On the other side, Lin Yiyi, who couldn't restrain her inner excitement, took a sip of milk tea and said to herself to the phone:

"I know you have bad intentions for my brother. Hehe, my clever little brain is awesome!"

"Lin Yiyi, have you finished your homework? Class will start soon." The deskmate reminded her friendly.

Lin Yiyi: "..."

Can't you make me happy just a little longer?

When he got home from get off work that night, Chi Xu was hard at work studying advanced mathematics.

He subconsciously bit the end of the pen, resting his chin in one hand, and holding the other end of the pen in the other, staring at the book, but only he knew how much he had learned.

"Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?" Zhong Haochen put down the keys and put on slippers.

"Uncle, are you back?" Chi Xu put down his pen and stood up from the sofa:

"I've been studying this question for a long time, but I can't do it anyway."

"Let me take a look." Zhong Haochen walked up to Chi Xu, took the book, and saw that it was a sample problem with a simple explanation below.

After briefly looking at the topic, Zhong Haochen understood it, and when he was about to explain it to Chi Xu, he saw that he was stepping on the floor with his bare feet.

It is the end of October, the weather is getting colder, and the tiles must be cool.

"Isn't it cold? Put on your slippers." Zhong Haochen frowned, his tone a little unhappy.

"Ah? Oh..." Chi Xu was stunned for a second, not understanding why Zhong Haochen suddenly looked serious, but obediently put on his slippers.

It wasn't until then that Zhong Haochen explained the topic step by step to Chi Xu seriously.

After finishing the topic, Zhong Haochen went to the kitchen to cook.

Chi Xu nestled on the sofa, lamenting that he should have listened to Lin Yiyi earlier and asked his uncle for tutoring.

"Ding~" a WeChat message.

It's Lin Yiyi.

Lin Yiyi: "Brother, my birthday is coming soon. I want a present."

Chi Xu: "..."

This little girl has never been so invisible!

Chi Xu: "What do you want, tell me."

Lin Yiyi: "I want a sister-in-law."

Chi Xu: "I don't have this one, get another one."

Lin Yiyi: "Then ask uncle to treat me to dinner."

Chi Xu: "..."

Looking back at Zhong Haochen, who was seriously washing and preparing to cook, he was tall and imposing.The knuckles are slender and well-defined, corresponding to the green vegetables held in the hands, and they look particularly good-looking.

Inexplicably, Chi Xu shuddered inwardly.

A strange feeling crossed my mind, warm and trembling, as if, after school, I usually walk down the road with my head down, but when I looked up, I saw the sunset glow.

Surprised and addicted.

Realizing what he was thinking, Chi Xu's ears turned red all of a sudden. He lowered his head and looked at the phone in a daze.
