Tolerate

Chapter 40

There was another dull thunder rolling outside, Jiang Bei's shoulders shook slightly, his lips were pursed nervously, and he raised his hand and knocked on the door twice.

Finally there was movement in the door. Chi Muyun, with long hair on, opened the door and squinted at Jiang Bei, his voice was a little hoarse, "Jiang Bei? What's wrong?"

Jiang Bei whispered, "It's thundering outside...I'm a little scared."

Chi Muyun remembered that Jiang Bei was indeed afraid of thunder. In the past at school, when Jiang Bei was woken up by thunder in the middle of the night, he would call Chi Muyun.

"Can I..." Jiang Bei slightly raised his head, his gaze swept over Chi Muyun's bed in the room, where a little girl was sleeping peacefully inside.

Jiang Bei's eyes darkened for a moment.She clearly remembered that Chi Muyun didn't share a bed with others.

"Can you stay with me for a few minutes?" Jiang Bei looked back at Chi Muyun.

Chi Muyun looked back at Lu Qingming, and gently closed the door.

Lightning tore through the night, and Jiang Bei subconsciously covered his ears.Chi Muyun pulled the sleeve of her pajamas, "Let's go to your room."

Chi Muyun turned on the light, found a thin blanket and put it on Jiang Bei's body, and said with a soft smile, "I didn't expect you to be afraid of thunder now."

Jiang Bei's heart warmed up, "You still remember."

"Of course I remember," Chi Muyun deliberately squinted at her, "I don't know how many times I woke up in the middle of the night, and stared with you together."

Jiang Bei couldn't help laughing, "It's really thanks to you."

Chi Muyun smiled and said nothing, the two were silent for a few seconds, only the patter of rain outside the window could be heard.

Jiang Bei tightened the blanket around his body and said, "I plan to go out to find a house tomorrow."

Chi Muyun nodded, "Then I'll take half a day off to accompany you."

Jiang Bei was stunned, "No, I'll do it myself. You're still an intern, so it's not good to ask for leave all the time..."

Chi Muyun murmured, "If not, you can stay at my house first, and I will accompany you to find a house next weekend. Find a job first, and then decide where to live. This order is more appropriate. In the past few days, you can get acquainted with the capital first." , Submit your resume."

Jiang Bei bowed his head and said, "Okay."

Chi Muyun stretched.I don't know when, the sound of the rain outside has gradually died down.

"Go to sleep, good night." Chi Muyun smiled, opened the door and went out.

"Good night." Jiang Bei walked to the door and looked at her back.

The bedroom door opened at some point, and a small head poked out, with big eyes flashing in the dim light, "Cloud?"

"Woke up?" Chi Muyun lowered his head and patted her head, talking softly, leading her back.

Jiang Bei was taken aback by Chi Muyun's intimacy with the little girl.

It doesn't look like they sleep in a bedroom occasionally, but it seems that they have had a tacit understanding for a long time.

Jiang Bei remembered that when he was in college, Chi Muyun would never hold hands with his friends like many girls did.Even if they are shopping together, Chi Muyun will keep at least one punch away from others.

During that time, Jiang Bei was still on good terms with her, but he couldn't go shopping with her arm in his arms.

But Chi Muyun's sincere and considerate treatment of friends, she has a deep understanding.For example, when crossing the road, she would pull her sleeves guidingly, and Chi Muyun would always walk on her left side when walking on the road.During the holidays, she took the train early in the morning, and Chi Muyun would get up early to take her to the station and help her with her luggage...

Those who don't know Chi Muyun well will feel that Chi Muyun is aloof.And her warmth, only a few people can see it.

Jiang Bei used to be very proud of being the lucky one.

From this point of view, the girl is the luckiest.she thought sourly.

Jiang Bei turned over.During the trip, she suddenly realized something.She used to live a cautious life, especially after the high school incident, she became more obedient in front of her parents.

Her deviant behavior made her feel guilty intermittently, but the life of going with the flow made her tense and suffocated.

Strings that are too tight will break one day.

She fell asleep with the sound of rain on her pillow, and the person who appeared in the dream still couldn't tell who it was.

Chi Muyun got up just after dawn.She looked at Lu Qingming who was sleeping soundly, hesitated for a while, but still couldn't bear to wake her up.

The girl's overgrown eyelashes fluttered slightly from time to time. Chi Muyun looked down at her, smiled silently, and stretched out his fingers to brush the broken hair on Lu Qingming's forehead.

She got up and opened the drawer, took out a pen and paper, tore off a piece of white paper, and wrote

"Xiaolu remember to wipe the Xiangxiang in the blue box, I will definitely take you skating this weekend."

The slender fingers turned the pen subconsciously.She thought about signing it, and finally added a name Chi Muyun in the lower right corner.

The girl's arms were stretched out beside the bed, perhaps due to the dry spring, there were many cracks on the back of her hands.

Chi Muyun gently put her arm back on the quilt.

After a day's work, she was already so tired that she was about to fall apart, but Chi Muyun still had to tidy up the bedroom.

Although Ling Suzhen had sent someone to sort it out before, there were still some relatively private things that needed to be done by herself.

Chi Muyun hung the clothes in the suitcase one by one into the closet.

After hanging up the clothes, Chi Muyun saw a piece of moon-white cloth at the bottom of the box, which was crumpled and shrunk into a ball.

Chi Muyun picked up the cloth and unfolded it.There was a faint imprint on the exquisite handkerchief, which turned out to be the handkerchief she used to wipe Xiaolu's sweat last summer.Probably Xiaolu had pine oil on his hands at the time, and he couldn't wash it off afterwards.

Chi Muyun thought that this handkerchief had already been thrown away by him.She was holding the handkerchief and was about to throw it into the trash can, but she stopped and put the handkerchief in the drawer.

For some reason, I suddenly didn't want to throw it away.

Maybe some oil to wash with and see if that removes the pine oil.

The closet is huge, and there is still a lot of space to put all the clothes in.Chi Muyun thought to himself, when Xiaolu comes over, the clothes can still be put in.

This thought flashed by, she laughed to herself, Xiaolu had to come over in September, now she was anxious to think about what to do.

In a blink of an eye, it was Saturday again.

Lu Qingming pressed the white paper with his rough fingers, and held the pen in the other hand, writing the words "Chi Muyun" stroke by stroke on the paper.

The word "Mu" is too difficult to write. She always writes this character in a long way, which is not pretty at all.

Chi Muyun's writing is beautiful.

Lu Qingming thought for a while, took out the piece of paper written by Chi Muyun, and placed it under the white paper.Through the white paper, one can faintly see the graceful handwriting of the words "Chi Muyun".

Lu Qingming blinked his big eyes happily, lowered his head and began to trace these three characters.

After tracing for a while, the white paper was already covered with "Chi Muyun".As she traced, she looked up at the clock from time to time.Chi Muyun and Jiang Bei went out to find a house, and Lu Qingming wanted to follow, but Chi Muyun refused and asked her to read and write new characters at home.

It was getting dark outside, and Aunt Wu had already cooked the meal, but Chi Muyun and Jiang Bei still didn't come back.

"...Why don't you just rent that house to Jiangbei, the rent can be lower. It's just close to Xiaoyun, and we can take care of each other..." Lu Qingming went downstairs and vaguely heard the conversation between Ling Suzhen and Chi Muqiu.

"No," Chi Muqiu resolutely denied, "It's easy for classmates to get stuck in this way, and it's not that difficult for Jiangbei's family."

Ling Suzhen sighed, "I think Jiangbei is well-behaved, not like that kind of narrow-minded child."

Chi Muqiu shook his head, "Just leave it alone, Xiaoyun can handle it by himself."

Aunt Wu brought up all the food, Lu Qingming ran into the kitchen, helped Aunt Wu with a drink tray, and asked in a low voice, "Auntie, are you waiting...?"

Aunt Wu smiled and said, "Miss called just now, what did you say..." She recalled a moment and slapped her thigh, "Yes, I said that I met some classmates from Beijing. They went to a dinner party and asked us to eat first."

"Oh……"

Lu Qingming was a little listless and didn't eat much.

Chi Muqiu noticed something was wrong with her, and tapped on the rim of her bowl, "Hurry up and eat, I'll take you out to play later."

She knew that Lu Qingming was unhappy because Chi Muyun hadn't come back.This child has been at home for so many days, and she can see how dependent he is on Chi Muyun.

She glanced at Lu Qingming while eating.

"Cough, cough..." A lewd thought flashed through his mind, and Chi Muqiu gasped, tears streaming down his face.

She was wretched by herself.

"What's the matter?" Ling Suzhen asked strangely while pouring water for her, "Such a big person is still choking on rice grains like a child?"

Chi Muqiu blushed, took a big sip of water, waved his hands and said, "No...it's okay hahahaha."

A sharp detective light flashed in Ling Suzhen's eyes, "Xiao Qiu, do you have something to hide from me?"

Whenever she lies and feels guilty, she laughs dryly—the shrewd Ling Suzhen has already figured out this habit of her daughter.

"It's okay, hahahaha, hurry up and eat, mom, today's food is really delicious, hahahaha..." Chi Muqiu lowered his head to eat the food, unaware that his laughter had betrayed his heart.

"This little crazy..." Ling Suzhen muttered.

Lu Qingming is not picky about food and can eat very well, but he is not very easy to support.Chi Muqiu took her straight to the snack area of ​​the supermarket.

Chi Muqiu pushed the shopping cart with one hand, and walked in front of her with high heels "da da da", "Xiaolu, just tell me what you want to eat..." She has recently made some money from her own projects, and she is more generous.

Lu Qingming looked around.Chi Muyun would only buy her fruit, milk, or some drinks and nutritional products, and hardly bought snacks like potato chips, jelly, candy, etc.

And Lu Qingming didn't take the initiative to ask, she would eat whatever Chi Muyun bought her.

Seeing that Lu Qingming was silent, Chi Muqiu thought she was embarrassed, so he picked up the exquisitely packaged chocolates on the shelf, "Do you like this one?"

Lu Qingming tilted his head and looked at it.Such a dark thing, is it delicious?

Chi Muqiu simply stopped asking for her opinion, and threw some snacks that children would probably like into the car.

After thinking about it, I added some puffed food and sweets.Xia Bing likes it.

Lu Qingming saw the breakfast milk that Chi Muyun was used to drinking, so he pulled Chi Muqiu's lapel.

"Auntie, I want milk." Lu Qingming said bluntly.

Chi Muqiu looked down, isn't this the brand that Chi Muyun likes to drink? There are several boxes at home.But Lu Qingming may not know that there are still at home.

Chi Muqiu nodded, "Okay, carry a box."

Lu Qingming happily carried a box.

The obscene fragments once again attacked Chi Muqiu's brain, transforming into various locations and scenes, and if they were plumped up, they could become novels.She stroked her forehead, looked to the side, and saw a familiar figure.

Chi Muqiu quickly looked away, afraid that he would see him.Unfortunately, Xing Shujun happened to be looking this way too.
