Defeated By Love - Chapter 23
Because of his words, Shunen was silent for a while, and did not comment on his words. He felt that the height topic he had raised on his own initiative was really insulting, but he was not angry because of it.
Although he felt a little embarrassed, Shunen had a good temper as if he hadn’t heard him.
In the huge room, it became quiet instantly.
Only the occasional reminder sound from the rehabilitation doctor can be heard.
Shunen could not help, so he could only stand by and watch.
She didn’t know how Xie Ruhe felt when he recovered.
Does it hurt?
Sometimes those world-weary emotions that he suddenly showed up, and those reasons for not wanting to persevere, did he feel that he worked so hard, and after the hard work, the expected results did not come at all.
It was a feeling of powerlessness.
Shunen squeezed his fists hard and called him: “Xie Ruhe.”
Xie Ruhe panted slightly, sweating on his forehead: “Huh?”
“After you stand up, do you have anything you want to do?”
Hearing this, Xie Ruhe looked over, and the sweat from the tips of his hair slid down his cheeks and fell from his jaw. Probably because of the heat, his cheeks became a little more bloody, and his eyes were shiny with sweat.
He honestly said: “Yes.”
Shunen asked: “What do you want to do?”
Xie Ruhe didn’t say a word, but looked at her quietly. Obviously standing on a high place, with the advantage of height, is looking down at her, but there is no feeling of oppression.
Shunen didn’t care about his coldness either.
“At that time,” Shunen stood on tiptoe and patted him on the shoulder, as if to comfort him, and seemed inexplicable, “I can accompany you.”
Hearing this, Xie Ruhe bends his lips, his peach-eyed eyes narrowed slightly, and then his brows stretched out. This time he no longer jumped out word by word like before.
Because of panting, the voice is a bit more sexy, with an overwhelming clear breath.
“A word is a deal,” he said.
When Xie Ruhe finished his rehabilitation, the hour hand on the wall also turned to ten o’clock.
Shunian went back to the sixteenth floor with him, ready to take his things and go home.
Probably because of the New Year’s Eve, there are fireworks outside, making lively pops. The sky was bright, and the glowing flowers bloomed in the night sky. It has high floors and a good view, and you can clearly see most of the night scene of Ruchuan City.
Shunian looked at it for a while, but didn’t stay longer: “Then I went back?”
Xie Ruhe had no reason to keep her so late, and nodded: “Be careful.”
Shunian answered his voice and said again: “Happy birthday.”
“Ok.”
But it was not Shunen who went back alone. As before, Fang Wencheng drove her back.
The two walked to the hallway and changed their shoes. When they were about to go out, Xie Ruhe suddenly came over from the living room with a bag of things in his hands.
Shunen blinked: “What’s the matter?”
He handed what was on his hand to Shunen.
Shunian was taken aback for a moment, and looked down, and found that it was the bag of things Fang Wencheng had brought back.
Xie Ruhe said: “Here you are.”
Shunen took it, a little overwhelmed: “What is it?”
The bag is not small, it is a bit heavy when carried, as if it contains a lot of things. She couldn’t guess what was in the opaque plastic bag.
Xie Ruhe did not hide it, and said honestly: “Cold medicine.”
“…”
Although Shunian told him that she had recently caught a cold, Xie Ruhe gave her a large bag of cold medicine for no reason. She couldn’t think of a reason, so she could only take this as a New Year gift from him.
Counting that up, she didn’t seem to give him a gift except for buying a cake for Xie Ruhe today.
Instead, let him give her something for a birthday.
Shunen felt a little guilty and planned to make up a birthday present for him in a few days. She got into the car and hesitated to ask Fang Wencheng: “Does Xie Ruhe have anything he wants?”
Fang Wencheng started the car: “What do you want?”
“Correct.”
“I haven’t heard him mention it.” Fang Wencheng thought for a while, and quickly concluded, “The teacher does not lack anything, he will buy what he wants.”
“Ah.” Shunen scratched his head depressedly, “Then if I want to buy him a gift, what should I buy?”
At the red light, Fang Wencheng stopped the car and waved to her.
“No need to buy it, no need.”
“No need…”
“Yes.” Fang Wencheng said seriously, “on the teacher’s birthday, Mr. Ji said that he would buy him a house, but he also refused. He doesn’t like to accept other people’s things.”
“…”
“Don’t bother with it.” Fang Wencheng sighed, and unknowingly changed his name to Xie Ruhe, “Master, this person is a little moody, maybe you give him a gift, he will be unhappy.”
Shunian heard him call Xie Ruhe “Young Master”, and now he understood who he was talking about. She was a little confused and explained: “But I won’t give anything weird.”
“That’s not certain.” Fang Wencheng looked like a person came over and told her that he had been with Xie Ruhe for so long. “Anyway, only do what you should do. You don’t want to take the initiative to do things that the master didn’t ask for. do.”
Shunen didn’t dare to give it away because of what he said: “But wouldn’t it be bad not to send it?”
“Will not.”
Shunen was still a bit tangled. Turning his head and looking out the window, he suddenly realized that the road nearby was a bit strange, and he hesitantly asked, “Did you drive through the subway station?”
“Yes.” Fang Wencheng said, “It’s too late, Master asked me to take you home directly.”
Since it had already been opened, Shunen did not refuse, and gave him an address.
Shunian looked at her phone for a while, and quickly asked, “Assistant Fang, how long have you been an assistant to Teacher Ahe?”
“I was originally Mr. Ji’s assistant.” Fang Wencheng didn’t hide it, and honestly said, “After the young master returned from France, I was transferred to his assistant.”
I never thought it was such an answer. Shunen curiously asked, “Is this a change of boss?”
“Forget it.”
“Aren’t you not used to it?”
“It’s okay.” Fang Wencheng smiled, “Mr. Ji and Young Master are fine.”
Shunian recalled the way he and Xie Ruhe got along, and didn’t comment on what he said, just thinking about whether he would resign if he had such a boss.
As if perceiving her inner thoughts, Fang Wencheng glanced at her, then cleared her throat, and slightly corrected her expression: “In fact, the young master is not as indifferent as it seems on the surface. His mind is very sensitive and he cares about the people around him. Even though he has a bad temper, he won’t do anything bad, so he’s just a little better.”
Shunen agreed: “Yeah.”
She was about to say “I think too”. Before I could say it, Fang Wencheng continued to sigh the next moment: “The most important thing is that the young master is really too generous, and the salary is really too high.”
“…”
Because of the dialogue with Fang Wencheng, Shunen can roughly guess why Xie Ruhe’s attitude towards him is so unkind.
Fang Wencheng is probably the kind of honest man with a good temper and low EQ. He doesn’t know how to compliment people. The person who speaks up makes others angry, and he can’t find the point where the other person is angry.
They didn’t chat afterwards.
Fang Wencheng sent Shunian to the outside of the community and left.
Shunian walked downstairs home and happened to see He You coming out of the building. He seems to have just woke up, his hair is still messy, there are sleep marks on his face, and he is carefree and uncut.
He You yawned, curled his lips, and said, “Is the date back?”
Shunian did not respond to his words and asked, “You want to go out?”
“Yes.” He You rubbed his face vigorously, and snorted, “I’m so sleepy, I just squinted for a while.”
Shunen said earnestly: “Thank you.”
“Okay.” He You couldn’t bear this kind of hypocrisy. He raised his foot and walked forward. Then, as if thinking of something, he turned to remind her, “Hey! Pay attention to you recently. Recently, there have been a lot of room entrances nearby. For theft, remember to lock the door and sleep at night.”
Shunen nodded quickly: “Okay, thank you.”
Into the house.
Because of He You’s words just now, Shunen spent a week at home with trepidation. After making sure that there were no signs of others coming in, she reluctantly relaxed and sat on the sofa.
Shunian opened the bag of medicine Xie Ruhe bought for her, took a box and looked at the instructions.
The small prints are densely packed together, making it a bit hard to read.
Shunen left without realizing it. When he recovered, he found that the time was approaching zero o’clock the next day. She stretched, obediently packed her things, and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
By the time Shunen lay down on the bed, it had been more than half an hour for the New Year.
Shunen is not too sleepy, I want to play with the phone for a while before going to sleep. She turned on the screen and found out that WeChat had many messages, mostly only four “Happy New Year” messages, which could be seen as a group message.
Shunen responded one by one: [Thank you, Happy New Year. 】
Until the bottom one, Shunen looked at the time, not accidentally or deliberately, but sent it at zero o’clock.
It was sent by Xie Ruhe.
[Shu Nian, Happy New Year. 】
It is a new year, and it also means the arrival of a new life.
Shunen bent her lips: [Happy New Year. 】
Fearing that he thought it was a group, Shunen thought about it and added another: [Xie Ruhe]
Xie Ruhe: [What’s wrong? 】
Looking at the dialogue, Shunen could probably guess that he had misunderstood that he was calling him: [No, I will prove that I am not a group sender. 】
Xie Ruhe asked: [How to prove? 】
Shunen: [Add a name to prove it. 】
There was a pause for a few seconds, and then another sentence was sent: [How to prove? Shunen. 】
I don’t know why he sent it again, Shunian was stunned: [Ah? 】
Xie Ruhe responded quickly: [I also prove it. 】
