The Stand-in Refuses to Become a Regular - Chapter 8

Xing Yun wanted to see a client in the afternoon, but he didn’t go home for a few days, and his clean clothes were long gone. He didn’t want others to deal with his personal affairs, and he didn’t have time to go out to buy it, so he had to ask Xue Yingshuang to send clothes.

Before entering the office, Xing Yun held the doorknob with one hand, hesitating a little, not knowing what expression he should use to enter later.

He hadn’t seen Xue Yingshuang for a few days, and he didn’t know whether he wanted to see Xue Yingshuang or not. The image of the broken bowl and plate lingered in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more annoying it became.

He took a deep breath and opened the door with a sullen face.

The office was empty, and Xue Yingshuang had already left.

Xing Yun’s facial expression immediately relaxed, and he let out a long breath. But then for some reason, he hummed again, inexplicably unpleasant.

Where did the clothes go?

Xing Yun stood at the door and looked around, but did not see the clothes that Xue Yingshuang brought. He frowned immediately, and immediately called Xue Yingshuang to ask what was going on.

This can’t be done well, is it just waiting for me to call…

Xing Yun picked up the phone, but found that Xue Yingshuang had sent him a message long ago.

“The clothes are in the closet in the lounge. I took the dirty clothes back and washed them.”

Xing Yun came to the lounge and opened the cabinet to see his suit hanging neatly in the wardrobe.

He only asked Xue Yingshuang to bring one set, but Xue Yingshuang helped him bring three sets, and even prepared underwear and socks.

Xing Yun hummed again in disapproval, but when he took off the clothes and socks he had worn for two days and put on a clean suit, the corners of his mouth twitched unknowingly.

Xing Yun took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Xue Yingshuang: “Go home for dinner today.”

Not long after, Xue Yingshuang replied “OK”.

Xing Yun was in a good mood and walked out of the office with a smile on his face.

Just a moment later, the dishes that were smashed that day appeared in his mind again, and he couldn’t laugh anymore.

In fact, he couldn’t figure out what he was angry about that day.

Xing Yun went home a little later than usual today, and it was almost eight o’clock when he got home.

As soon as he entered the house, the fragrant smell of familiar food floated in, Xing Yun was both relaxed and nervous, but he didn’t know what he was nervous about.

“Come and eat.” Xue Yingshuang’s voice was the same as usual, Xing Yun walked to the table, and the meal was ready.

Xue Yingshuang put the bowl on the table: “You eat first, I’ll reheat the soup.”

I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or something else, but today’s food is exactly the same as the day Xing Yun smashed the dishes. Seeing Xing Yun worried, he was afraid that the inexplicable anger that day would strike again.

Xing Yun took a deep breath, thinking that no matter what, he couldn’t become what he hated.

He struggled in his heart for a while before he stretched out his chopsticks, but when he tasted it, his frowning brows suddenly relaxed, only to feel very delicious. The same goes for other dishes, it’s the same as before.

Feeling strange, Xue Yingshuang, who had brought the soup, sat next to him and asked, “Did you notice any difference?”

Xing Yun didn’t understand, and when he saw Xue Ying pointing at the table, Xing Yun noticed that there was a long black board under the bowl.

“This is a food insulation board.” Xue Yingshuang said, “How is it? Does it taste better than that day?”

Xing Yun didn’t fully understand, Xue Yingshuang said again: “In the future, no matter what time you come back, I will be able to give you a hot meal. If it is not hot enough, we will increase the temperature of the insulation, there will be no It’s cold.”

Only then did Xing Yun realize that he was unhappy because of the cold meal that day.

He never thought it was the reason, and he never thought it would be the reason…

Just thinking about it, Xue Yingshuang helped him scoop another bowl of soup. He wanted to drink the soup after he took it, but Xue Yingshuang kept it a little farther and didn’t let him take it.

“It doesn’t matter if you like it hot, but don’t eat it too hot, it will hurt the esophagus, let it sit for a while before eating.” Xue Yingshuang still didn’t smile when he spoke, but his tone was gentle, giving people a feeling of smiling.

Xing Yun had an indescribable feeling all over his body, and when he tasted it carefully, he seemed apologetic.

After dinner, Xue Yingshuang began to wash the dishes.

Speaking of which, the reason why he discovered that Xing Yun didn’t like eating cold meals and dishes was due to the microwave oven.

There is nothing extra in Xing Yun’s office, but there is a microwave.

Microwave ovens are not office supplies, if you say they are daily necessities, but kettles are more common than microwave ovens, and it is really strange that there are no office supplies.

Xue Yingshuang couldn’t figure it out, but when he looked at the garbage in the trash can, he had some ideas in his heart.

The trash can is just below the microwave oven, and inside are plastic bags for bread. It is reasonable to speculate that Xing Yun took the bread out of the plastic bag, microwaved the bread, and threw the plastic bag away.

When I opened the microwave again, I saw that there was a small plate inside, and there were a little crumbs on the plate, which confirmed Xue Yingshuang’s guess.

Xue Yingshuang usually eats raw and cold. He can even eat hot noodle soup when it is cold, let alone bread. He never thought of heating the bread.

Xing Yun even had to heat a piece of bread, how much does he have to pay attention to hot food?

Thinking back again, Xing Yun was unhappy these two times, it was all working overtime and working late.

The two times Xing Yun came back too late, he couldn’t grasp the timing of cooking, so he always cooked a little earlier.

Although Xing Yun touched the plate before eating, he felt it was hot enough, but it was hot enough for him, and for a person who had to heat bread, it was a cold meal.

It is no wonder that Xingyun will attack.

As soon as he figured it out, he immediately bought a food heating plate on the way home.

Sure enough, he was right, as soon as the heating plate was used, Xing Yun ate hot food, his hair was smoothed out, and the food was eaten clean again.

Just as he was thinking, he heard footsteps behind him. He looked back and saw Xing Yun standing there with his hands behind his back, his face a little weird.

Xue Yingshuang: “Want to drink water?”

Xing Yun nodded, Xue Yingshuang took a glass of water for him, he stretched out his right hand to take it, but his left was still behind his back.

Xing Yun took the water and didn’t drink much, just took a sip. After a while, he didn’t look very comfortable, so he took another sip.

Xue Yingshuang didn’t understand what trick he was playing, so he had to continue washing the dishes.

Halfway through the wash, I suddenly saw something flashing out of the corner of my left eye. If you look closely, it is a new mobile phone with the packaging film still in the box.

Xue Yingshuang: “?”

Xing Yun: “Your mobile phone is too rotten, let’s get a new one.”

Xue Yingshuang’s mobile phone is indeed very old, the screen is broken into spider webs, it is really difficult to see things.

It’s just that he thinks that studying is more important, so he asked Xing Yun to buy a computer for him at first, but he never thought about changing his mobile phone. Now Xing Yun has helped him replace one, and he is still very grateful.

“Thanks.”

“You’re welcome.”

Xue Yingshuang continued to wash the dishes, but found that Xing Yun was still standing behind him.

Xue Yingshuang: “?”

Xing Yun: “Aren’t you going to try your new phone?”

Xing Yun said so, Xue Yingshuang wiped his hands and took the new phone to the dining table to try. Xing Yun followed him to the dining table and leaned beside him to watch.

Xue Yingshuang didn’t understand why Xing Yun loved following him so much tonight, but Xing Yun didn’t speak, so he ignored it.

Leaning at the dining table, he set up his new phone, transferring the data from the old phone one by one. The system of the new mobile phone is different from that of the old mobile phone. Although he has used a computer of the same brand for a while, he is still not familiar with the mobile phone system and can only focus on it.

After an unknown amount of time, Xing Yun, who was beside him, suddenly said coldly, “I used to eat cold meals when I was young.”

Xue Yingshuang raised his head, but Xing Yun turned his head to one side, not letting him see.

Xue Yingshuang didn’t understand why he suddenly confessed, but he didn’t interrupt, just listened.

“My family and I don’t get along well. They often give me cold meals.” Xing Yun almost thought that he had long forgotten the cold meals thrown in front of him, but he didn’t expect his emotional reaction to be so great. After he finished speaking, he whispered, “But I like to eat hot.”

Xing Yun’s last sentence somehow made Xue Yingshuang feel cute and pitiful.

Xing Yun looked back and saw Xue Yingshuang staring at him, he couldn’t help but looked away, but after a while, he unconsciously looked at Xue Yingshuang again.

He looked at Xue Yingshuang, and said in a low voice, “So… I’m sorry.”

“Don’t take it to heart.” Xue Yingshuang didn’t really care. As the dog show said, dogs can’t talk, and owners must learn to detect the needs of dogs. In fact, people are the same.

“What do you care about in the future, you have to tell me directly. If you don’t know, then you have to give me some time and let me think of a way.” Xue Yingshuang said, “I will listen to you what you want me to do. of.”

A person who is not familiar with him is willing to tell him this, Xing Yun is a little touched, and he can’t help but look deeply at Xue Yingshuang.

Then Xue Yingshuang added: “But if it’s too much, you need to add money.”

Xing Yun: “…”

Xue Yingshuang: “Also, going to your company today is considered overtime work. I will report it together with the invoice for buying the heating plate.”

Xing Yun: “…”

Xing Yun’s moving was fleeting.
