"Click."

Insert the key|into the keyhole, and the door is opened.

Qiu Tianyun was a little frightened when he heard the movement, stretched out his hand to press the window sill tightly, and turned his head to take a look.

It was Qiu Jinyan.

She was holding the phone in one hand and was on the phone.

What was being discussed obviously made her very unhappy,? Frowning tightly.

"... Absolutely not."

"You'd better not move those messy thoughts,? Or—"

Her voice was very cold, but when she raised her head, she met Shang Qiu Tianyun's eyes.

There was a pause.

The anger subsided in an instant.

Qiu Jinyan changed the subject, and his tone became calmer: "Forget it, I'll tell you next time when I go back."

Before waiting for the person on the other side to answer, she hung up the phone directly.

Qiu Jinyan casually threw the phone on the shoe cabinet in the entrance, changed his shoes and entered the room, walking towards Qiu Tianyun.

"You came back alone?" she asked.

"No,? Teacher Ye and Brother Qiu sent me downstairs." Qiu Tianyun glanced downstairs while talking, "They were still there just now."

By this time they had left.

It probably went in the opposite direction, and happened to be staggered with Qiu Jinyan.

Qiu Jinyan nodded, he felt at ease with those two people, but he asked one more question out of excessive worry.

Qiu Tianyun saw the fatigue between Qiu Jinyan's brows, and hesitated for a moment, instead of asking about the relationship between Ye Huaishuang and Lin Jianqiu, he went to the kitchen.

"Has sister eaten yet?" She suggested, "Let me go and make you something to eat."

Qiu Jinyan nodded absently.

Qiu Tianyun went into the kitchen, opened the door of the refrigerator, and saw a pile of expired ingredients. After searching for a while, he managed to find a few usable ones.

Qiu Jinyan seemed very busy during this time.

But it's not about work,? It's about running to Shen's house from time to time.

Qiu Tianyun heard her father mention this incident by chance, and it seemed that her sister's uncle and grandfather became concerned about her marital status.

The Shen family needed someone to marry, and Qiu Jinyan was one of the candidates.

Qiu Jinyan is open and casual in relationship issues, of course he is not satisfied with this, but because of this, he quarreled with them several times.

After all, Qiu Jinyan's surname is also Qiu, and the Shen family can't control her.

Whether it can be done, whether it is coercion or temptation, or emotionally moving, it all depends on Qiu Jinyan's own will.

For Qiu Tianyun, the Shen family, and even most of Qiu Jinyan's things, are so far away that they seem to exist in another world.

Qiu Tianyun didn't dare to ask more questions, but still couldn't help caring.

She was cracking eggs in the kitchen when she heard the phone ringing again in the hallway.

Qiu Jinyan frowned and walked back, pinched the first call back, and she didn't answer it until the second time.

The second call was from Lin Jianqiu.

It could also be Ye Huaishuang, anyway, they are all together now.

Qiu Tianyun guessed in his heart, while firing.

Qiu Jinyan went to the other side to answer the phone. Qiu Tianyun couldn't hear clearly, but she was used to being silent and didn't explore.

After the phone call, when Qiu Jinyan came back, Qiu Tianyun had already cooked the dishes, and there was the leftover porridge from the morning in the rice cooker, which could be eaten after a little reheating.

For the eldest lady who is used to delicacies from mountains and seas, this lunch can be regarded as extremely simple, but Qiu Jinyan did not show any disgust.

She's actually surprisingly easygoing about these little things.

Qiu Jinyan sat down at the table obediently, and took the bowl and chopsticks from his sister.

"Should you have nothing else to do these two days?"

Seeing Qiu Tianyun nodded, Qiu Jinyan continued.

"You stay by my side first, tell the outside world about the newly recruited assistant, if you want to go out, ask someone to accompany you, don't place orders."

"If someone from the Shen family comes to you, ignore it and pretend you didn't hear it, or tell them to come to me directly."

"And the ones captured by Lin Jianqiu will notify me directly if there is a follow-up..."

Qiu Jinyan paused as she spoke, she found that Qiu Tianyun was distracted.

"Xiao Yun?"

"Ah, huh?" Qiu Tianyun came back to his senses, "What's wrong with Brother Qiu?"

She didn't pay attention to the previous words, and only vaguely felt as if she had heard the name.

Qiu Jinyan stopped completely.

She looked at her younger sister's face, feeling a little uncertain and worried for a moment.

"You won't treat Lin Jianqiu..."

Qiu Jinyan misunderstood the reason for Qiu Tianyun's distraction. She recalled that her sister really liked Lin Jianqiu before.

Even if you just like the face, that's still "like".

If it was in the past, she felt that it would be fine even if she really had deep thoughts, but obviously not now.

"Lin Jianqiu... likes Ye Huaishuang, do you know that?" Qiu Jinyan continued.

Qiu Tianyun was stunned for a moment, and then showed a little stunned expression.

It turned out to be the case.

But why did my sister suddenly talk about this?

Qiu Tianyun was at a loss again: "Are they together?"

Qiu Jinyan was in an inexplicable worry, and he couldn't help but think about it. He nodded and persuaded her: "They've been together for a long time, other things... don't think too much."

Worried about hurting his sister's self-esteem, Qiu Jinyan said it very tactfully.

Qiu Tianyun subconsciously bit her chopsticks, and missed her sister's brainwaves, and was stunned for a moment, but someone else popped up in her mind.

"I'm so envious..." She whispered.

Qiu Jinyan didn't hear clearly.

In the kitchen, Ye Huaishuang turned off the fire and poured the boiled ginger soup into the large bowl next to it.

Lin Jianqiu just came out of the shower with wet hair.

He also just took a dry towel and rubbed it indiscriminately, without any rules, and all his attention was on the phone.

Before he took two steps, he bumped into Ye Huaishuang head-on.

Lin Jianqiu was unprepared, staggered, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to cover his nose.

Ye Huaishuang reached out to grab him, took the dropped towel with one hand, and pushed him onto the sofa next to him, helping him to dry his hair.

Lin Jianqiu was caught off guard and his face was blurred, and his phone couldn't be seen clearly. He didn't struggle much, but couldn't help complaining: "Mr. Ye, are you deliberately taking revenge?"

Ye Huaishuang said, "No."

But he subconsciously relaxed his strength again.

As soon as Lin Jianqiu's vision recovered, his first reaction was to fish for his phone.

Ye Huaishuang glanced at him and asked, "Do you really care about Qiu Jinyan?"

"It's not Qiu Jinyan, it's her sister and the Shen family." Lin Jianqiu said, before adding, "But there's nothing wrong with saying that it has something to do with Qiu Jinyan."

He's talking about business.

Ye Huaishuang thought for a while, and said: "The Shen family doesn't like Qiu Tianyun, and has always regarded her as Professor Qiu's illegitimate daughter, but such rumors have been circulating for many years, and they will not commit crimes because of these prejudices."

"I guess so." Lin Jianqiu said, "But if Qiu Tianyun is kidnapped, and the kidnapper calls to ask for a ransom, or asks for something else in exchange, the Shen family will definitely not care."

"Is this what Qiu Jinyan told you just now?"

"Well. She went to Shen's house last night, and heard people talking about her sister's disappearance this morning. The Shen family all disliked Qiu Tianyun's seeking trouble, and asked Qiu Jinyan not to be deceived by her."

"Qiu Jinyan's cousin also said some unpleasant things."

It should be quite vicious words for a girl. Although Qiu Jinyan vaguely mentioned these details, he was obviously very angry.

Qiu Jinyan began to worry whether the attempted kidnapping was planned by the Shen family.

Ye Huaishuang took out the hair dryer from the cabinet, plugged it in, and listened to Lin Jianqiu's words.

When he heard the pause in the middle, he asked, "Qiu Jinyan still wants you to help her continue the investigation?"

Lin Jianqiu honestly leaned over to blow the air, and replied, "No. For her, it's a family matter when it comes to the Shen family."

Ye Huaishuang asked: "Do you also think it has something to do with the Shen family?"

Lin Jianqiu replied, "No."

He thought it was just an accident this time.

As far as Qiu Tianyun's personality is concerned, she has not been deceived so far, and her eccentric personality has definitely helped her a lot.

And after this incident, she should also be more guarded against strangers.

Although it is indeed an unfortunate thing to be kidnapped, it may not be the deliberate planning and design of the stakeholders.

Qiu Jinyan would be wary of the Shen family, probably because the other party said radical things, which made her overly sensitive.

But are these vigilances and vigilances enough to translate into her desire for power?

Lin Jianqiu pondered in silence.

Ye Huaishuang asked: "Still worried?"

It took Lin Jianqiu a long time to reply: "A little bit. But I will take care of the rest."

After all, he and the Qiu family sisters just met by chance, and they usually have their own things to do, so it is impossible to follow them all the time.

Now Qiu Jinyan obviously has enough vigilance, even if it is a little too much, it is not a bad thing.

This matter can be put aside for now.

Amid the whistling wind, Lin Jianqiu felt drowsy. It might be because the force in the hand of the person behind him was too gentle, and the breath was too familiar. The tiredness slowly surged up over the tense nerves.

He probably fell asleep for a while.

In his hazy consciousness, he vaguely saw Ye Huaishuang sitting next to him, watching the time for a while.

It was a rare vacation to get together, but he fell asleep like this, as if he was a bit reckless.

However, that kind of peaceful and stable atmosphere enveloped him, making his willpower recede again and again, and the drowsiness became irresistible.

Finally he fell asleep.

Ye Huaishuang was listening to Lin Jianqiu talking, but just after turning off the hair dryer, he heard his voice stop abruptly in the middle of his speech.

He looked down and saw that Lin Jianqiu had closed his eyes and slowly slipped into his arms.

Rarely, his brows were stretched, his breathing was steady, and he soon fell into a deep sleep.

The outstretched hand stopped at the same place, Ye Huaishuang hesitated for a moment, and when the hand fell again, he subconsciously relaxed his strength, and just touched Lin Jianqiu's brow lightly.

Lin Jianqiu did not wake up.

Probably really too tired.

Ye Huaishuang thought so.

Lin Jianqiu, who was asleep, had a subtle sense of docileness, especially when his brows were stretched out, the sense of maturity brought by his temperament and character faded away, and some hints of the immaturity that had been completely covered up appeared.

Only at this time, Ye Huaishuang remembered that he was still young, much younger than him.

Age never seemed to him a problem.

Only occasionally because of this, I would think that Lin Jianqiu must have had a hard time alone before.

Money is secondary, there is no one to accompany, no one to rely on, and seeing too many other people's life and death, but the attitude towards oneself seems to be dispensable, drifting away from the crowd carelessly.

He didn't feel sorry for himself, and he never really showed his vulnerable and embarrassed side.

That must require a very strong heart.

Ye Huaishuang also didn't think he was pitiful, and the emotions that popped up occasionally might be distressed.

He seems to always lack some parts in the emotional module, and it is difficult to briefly and accurately summarize his emotional fluctuations.

But if he were asked to describe his expectations in detail, he would probably have a lot to say.

He has no way of touching Lin Jianqiu's past, but after they met, he hoped that the other party would at least not feel sad for a moment because of reasons such as "lonely" and "no ties to each other".

He should know that there will always be someone who loves him in this world.

Whether it's family, friendship, or love.

People from the past will always exist in memory, and there will always be new people in the future.

After parting, you will also meet long-term companionship.

Ye Huaishuang hopes that she can accompany Lin Jianqiu through the rest of her life.

vice versa.

There are a lot of things I want to say, but I don't know where to start. Sometimes Ye Huaishuang is annoyed by her poor words and lack of romantic cells.

Even if he knew that Lin Jianqiu didn't care about it.

Just because he doesn't care doesn't mean he doesn't need it, even if it's just icing on the cake, he hopes to give all the good things.

Maybe you should tell him little by little.

Will he be happy?

Ye Huaishuang was thinking.

Lin Jianqiu didn't know anything about what was going on in Ye Huaishuang's mind. He was in a deep sleep, and his perception of the outside world was so dull that he was almost unaware.

Including that soft kiss that fell.

Ye Huaishuang kissed his forehead, and finally fell to the corner of his lips.

Very light, very light, like a gentle silent "good night".

But it's not even night yet.

There was also ginger soup on the kitchen table, and I forgot to let Lin Jianqiu drink it before going to sleep.

But...forget it.

When Lin Jianqiu woke up, it was already dark outside.

He stared at the dark balcony for a while.

It took a while before he realized that he was still lying on the sofa.

To be precise, it was leaning against Ye Huaishuang's arms.

When he was drying his hair earlier, he fell asleep drowsily, and Ye Huaishuang didn't wake him up afterwards, allowing him to maintain this position and sleep until night.

"Are you awake?" Ye Huaishuang's voice came from above.

After all, it was leaning against him, and when Lin Jianqiu moved a little, he immediately noticed it.

He lowered his head, squinted his eyes slightly, and met Lin Jianqiu's eyes accurately in the dim light.

The only light source in the room is the tablet Ye Huaishuang is holding in his hand. The white light on the screen is faint, not too glaring, but it is eye-catching enough in the dark.

Lin Jianqiu just turned over, rubbed his eyes, and lay down flat.

Fortunately, the sofa is big enough to fit most of his body.

He reached for the mobile phone on the coffee table, opened it and took a look, it was already late.

The only good news is that at least I didn't sleep until the next night.

Lin Jianqiu pressed the center of his eyebrows, perhaps because he had just woken up, and his consciousness was still a little drowsy, as if someone had thrown him into a front-loading washing machine and turned it back and forth a few times.

Ye Huaishuang's hand was attached and asked him: "Uncomfortable?"

Lin Jianqiu nodded, stretched out his hand and rubbed his neck, and complained half-truthfully, "It's a little rough."

Ye Huaishuang was not angry, nor did she throw the person out of his arms, but instead responded: "Next time I will remember to stuff you with a pillow."

He didn't know where Lin Jianqiu's smile hit, he couldn't help laughing out.

Lin Jianqiu smiled and said, "You can wake me up. You can't do anything like this."

And both are uncomfortable.

Ye Huaishuang replied very calmly: "I don't want to wake you up, and it's rare that I have time to see you more."

Lin Jianqiu raised his eyebrows: "Will you see me sleeping?"

Ye Huaishuang: "Yes."

She's also cute when she's asleep.

Lin Jianqiu touched his ears, somewhat regretful: "It's rare to have a holiday, it's too late to go out at this point, the supermarkets are closed."

"You can go tomorrow." Ye Huaishuang's tone was rare and tough, "You are too tired these days, and you need a good rest."

"This point?" Lin Jianqiu glanced at the time again.

It's not late at night, but it's not early either.

It's awkward to go out, and most people with regular schedules have already gone to bed at this time.

Although Ye Huaishuang lives a pure and ascetic life, her biological clock is not stable because of her work. She is usually still working or reading at this point.

But he tried to make Lin Jianqiu develop a good routine.

"You can go back to your room and continue to sleep." Ye Huaishuang suggested, "Maybe you can get up early tomorrow morning and have breakfast on time. It's best to stay at home for the next two days and have a good rest. If you are hungry at night, there is still in the kitchen—— "

He is analyzing and planning his itinerary rationally.

Lin Jianqiu has overdrafted too much these days, and he can't easily make up for it with a few hours of nap in the afternoon.

He was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

Lin Jianqiu raised his hand and touched the corner of his mouth when he lowered his head.

They bumped into each other accidentally, and the two of them were stunned at the same time.

Lin Jianqiu regained his senses first, and simply stretched out his hand, pinching Ye Huaishuang's cheek.

Ye Huaishuang didn't wear glasses at this time, so the hands that were messing with his face were more unimpeded.

"What's wrong?" Ye Huaishuang didn't stop, but just looked over in puzzlement.

"Ms. Ye." Lin Jianqiu said suddenly, "It seems that we haven't slept together yet."

Ye Huaishuang paused.

Didn't sleep together in a double sense.

there are many reasons.

One is busy, and the other is the respect brought about by upbringing.

Another more obscure reason is satisfaction with the status quo——

To be able to have the other party by my side, maybe I have used up all my luck, and I have seen no harm at all.

Even arguing with opposing opinions is one of the joys of life.

Based on this, it seems that there should be no luxury to ask for more and more enthusiastic things.

Let everything take its course.

——To put it mildly, you can probably say that.

This is a bad joke.

Ye Huaishuang has gradually become familiar with every subtle reaction of Lin Jianqiu.

I don't know what made him feel a little inexplicably upset, so he found some ways that Ye Huaishuang couldn't resist to tease him.

Ye Huaishuang didn't always go along with him blindly, and occasionally fought back.

There will always be one or two times, and it will be Lin Jianqiu who is speechless at the end of the debate.

If the timing changed, Ye Huaishuang might have a deeper discussion with him on this topic.

But then he thought of Lin Jianqiu's physical condition.

I didn't have a good rest for a few days, and I fell into the water again in the morning. It was the time when I was most tired, and my body might not be able to bear it.

When he was on the road before, he felt that Lin Jianqiu seemed to have a low-grade fever. After he came back, he took his temperature and it was normal, but he was obviously not in a good mood.

But I didn't take the medicine I bought on the way back, and I didn't drink the ginger soup...

Lin Jianqiu realized that Ye Huaishuang was distracted, pinched his cheek again, and asked abruptly, "What are you thinking?"

Ye Huaishuang replied casually: "Ginger soup."

Lin Jianqiu: "..."

Ye Huaishuang continued: "It's been left for too long and it's getting cold. Cook it again later, and drink a little less at night..."

At this time, I still think of ginger soup.

Lin Jianqiu narrowed his eyes.

It was a real joke at first, but now there is some inexplicable irritation.

There was no anger on his face, instead the corners of his lips curled up and he smiled gently at Ye Huaishuang.

Teacher Ye is still wearing a shirt today.

The weather is hot recently, and when I don’t have to go to work, the buttons are not properly buttoned, and the neckline is also a little wrinkled due to long-term pressing.

Lin Jianqiu raised his hand, stroked Ye Huaishuang's collar, and before he could react, he grabbed his collar and pulled it down, forcing him to lower his head.

A kiss bumped rudely.

A faint smell of rust permeated between the lips and teeth.

Ye Huaishuang was startled.

Not because of the sudden kiss, but seeing the smile on Lin Jianqiu's face.

With a bit of pride and provocation of a successful sneak attack, he smiled happily.

Lin Jianqiu blinked, unconsciously licked the cut blood on the corner of his lips, and dragged his tone slowly.

"Miss Ye, you can't do it, can you?"
