When he woke up, Lin Xi's brain was groggy.
The window in the living room was closed, the lights were turned on, and it was a little stuffy. He lowered his head, and he was covered with a heavy quilt.
The hangover headache made her pinching her temples, and her throat was unbearably dry and thirsty.
The suit jacket is gone, only the shirt inside and the shoes are neatly placed on the floor tiles in front of the sofa.
There was also a small blue glass bottle on the coffee table in front of the sofa. Half of the liquid in the bottle was seen. Lin Xi reached out and took a look. It was a hangover medicine.
last night-
Last night she was dragged to the bar by Zheng Yayi...
Wang Zhihe's group began to frantically drink her wine...
When she almost lost consciousness after drinking, she stood up swayingly, and after going to the bathroom, she ran to the first floor alone.
Then-
I saw Chu Muqing.
Memories began to fragment.
I only remember that Chu Muqing brought her home.
After that—
Lin Xi blinked, suddenly thought of something, and sat up from the sofa.
Last night, Chu Muqing dragged her upstairs. She muttered and asked Chu Muqing: "Chu Muqing, Chu Muqing, why is your face so white..."
Chu Muqing seemed to grit her teeth and said to her, "It's nothing without you."
When she was about to enter the door, Chu Muqing grabbed her with one hand and opened the door with the other.
She also owes a few minutes to grab someone's door key, and use her index finger to block their lips: "Shh..."
Chu Muqing hated her: "What's wrong?"
She replied: "Shh, keep your voice down, don't make a noise..."
Chu Muqing was speechless for a while, then looked at her with a half-smile: "How can you still think of this?"
She was dizzy, thinking that Chu Muqing was complimenting her, she nodded proudly and said, "Of course, our family head A has the most sense of responsibility!"
Lin Xi: …
Gee.
My head seems to be hurting even more.
Lin Xi rubbed her frizzy hair in frustration, and finally remembered what she did when she was drunk last night.
Wasn't she like this before?
In the past, when the company had to drink at a dinner party, it was not without it. Even if she was under pressure, she would deliberately get drunk when she was drinking at home. Wasn't she like this before?
— Oh, it seems not.
She used to get drunk at home alone, and would talk to the ragdoll cat she raised.
Lin Xi: …
But Chu Muqing wasn't her puppet cat!
-sky! Kill her!
Thinking back to the subtle look Chu Muqing looked at her last night, she was able to dig out the three rooms and one living room with just her feet, and ashamedly wanted to find a crack on the spot to get in.
- It's so embarrassing.
Until the sound of the doorknob turning.
Lin Xi stood up from the sofa almost like a conditioned reflex. She stepped on the ground with her bare feet, and saw the person outside the door walking in early with her.
When she stood up, she even deliberately tidied up her crumpled shirt and hurriedly buttoned her neckline.
After thinking for a few seconds, she decided to take the initiative to speak: "Chu Muqing—"
Chu Muqing stopped and put the breakfast and the car keys on the table, her dull gaze fell on her flushed face.
"Did you sleep well?"
Her voice was also faint, and she couldn't hear any fluctuations.
Lin Xi couldn't handle such a calm tone, but she smiled dryly: "It's okay, good morning..."
"Morning." Chu Muqing asked her, "Is your stomach feeling better?"
Lin Xi subconsciously tensed up: "Shu ... much more comfortable, thank you."
"Yeah." Chu Muqing replied lightly.
The calmer she was, the more Lin Xi felt guilty. What does Chu Muqing mean?
Afraid of her embarrassment? Pretend nothing happened?
"last night-"
Lin Xi said half a sentence.
She bent down again, took a sip of the water on the table, and waited for the corners of her dry lips to become moist before holding a warm water glass and carefully probed: "Why did you go to the Elk Bar last night?"
If Chu Muqing didn't show up just in time to bring her drunk and almost unconscious, she suspected that with her drunkenness, she might have found a big road to lie down on the spot.
Chu Muqing lowered her eyebrows and said calmly, "Su Rui is there."
"Oh..." Lin Xi opened his mouth, and the corners of his dry lips were finally pulled apart, "That's quite a coincidence..."
The other party's casual tone of voice finally eased Lin Xi's embarrassment.
Chu Muqing didn't say anything, she took off her long coat and hung it on the dark brown wooden hanger at the base of the wall.
From Lin Xi's point of view, she was wearing only a thin fleece sweater and wide-leg trousers.
After that, Chu Muqing turned around, and Lin Xi immediately retracted his gaze with a guilty conscience.
After a distance, Chu Muqing looked at her from a distance and asked, "Are you often brought to drink by them?"
Lin Xi thought for a while, then took another sip of water: "It used to be..."
Chu Muqing couldn't see the slightest fluctuation in her brows and eyes, but her voice became lighter, reminding her, "There is still hot water in the kitchen."
Lin Xi reacted after realizing it, and nodded quickly: "Ah... I'll pour it myself after drinking, thank you."
Chu Muqing responded, glanced at the time on the wall clock, turned and walked towards the bedroom.
Lin Xi thought, why did Chu Muqing not go to work at this point? Aren't you afraid of being late?
When Chu Muqing came out, she was holding a neatly folded suit of clothes.
"Go take a shower first," she said. "After washing, remember to eat."
Lin Xi put down the water glass, stood up, and took the dress from her hand. There seemed to be a dark blue bra strap in the middle. The color was so striking that she couldn't ignore it.
Lin Xi's face immediately became hot, she quickly retracted her gaze and lowered her arms: "Thank you."
Chu Muqing said in a low voice, "You're welcome."
"That...don't worry." Lin Xi said hurriedly: "I'll go buy some clothes in the morning, and then wash them and return them to you."
"Don't worry." Chu Muqing narrowed her eyes and reminded softly, "Anyway, I'm going to the supermarket tonight, just drop by the mall and buy it."
Lin Xi reacted, nodded, and said with a smile, "That's fine, you can also buy it together. Thank you, Chu Muqing."
Lin Xi took her clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower. This time, she had been washing for a long time. The warm water from the shower came off and landed on her skin. The feeling of drowsiness in her mind was slightly relieved.
The hangover headache made her feel like every cell in her body was flooded with alcohol, and the concentration of alcohol in her body almost made her wonder if she would die.
Most importantly, the longer she stayed in the bathroom, the less she would have to go out to face Chu Muqing.
- Escape shameful, but useful.
Um.
When she came out after washing, there was no one at home.
The car keys that Chu Muqing had placed on the table were also missing, apparently she had already gone to work.
Lin Xi stretched, her stomach was full of wine, looking at the single breakfast on the table, even if she had no appetite, she felt that she should eat a few mouthfuls.
After all, Chu Muqing made a special trip to buy it for her.
When Lin Xi stuffed fried dough sticks into her mouth, she received a call from Zheng Yayi.
Lin Xi picked up the phone and swallowed the last sip: "Hello?"
Zheng Yayi asked her, "where is it?"
Lin Xi took a sip of soy milk: "Where's the house?"
"Are you busy?"
Lin Xi put down the soy milk and rubbed his stomach: "I think I might need to go to the hospital for gastric lavage, so if you still drink, don't look for me."
"Hahahaha!" Zheng Yayi laughed and said with concern: "Are you okay? Is it so serious?"
Lin Xi flatly said, "Just kidding, I don't drink anymore anyway."
"I didn't ask you to drink." Zheng Ya thought about it and said, "Do you have any plans for Saturday?"
Lin Xi thought for a while: "For the time being...not yet."
"That's fine, accompany me to the hospital on Saturday, I think something is wrong with me..."
Lin Xi asked her, "What's wrong? Where are you feeling?"
Zheng Yayi seems a little hard to say: "it's wrong anyway, can you accompany me? I don't think it's appropriate for someone to accompany me in this kind of thing, and I don't want to go by myself..."
Lin Xi asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?"
Zheng Yayi asked her, "are you going?"
Lin Xi was helpless: "Go go go."
"That's right, this is my sister!"
Zheng Yayi felt a chill through the mobile phone muamua's handset, and Lin Xi quickly hung up the phone.
After a while, someone knocked on the door.
Lin Xi got up and walked to the entrance, opened the door, and a man in a black suit stood outside.
The man was slightly fat, holding a briefcase in his hand, looked at her for a moment, and asked, "Is Miss Chu at home? Are you..."
Lin Xi's body blocked the door, blocking the man's frequent gaze: "She went to work."
"Ah..." The man smiled and asked, "May I ask who you are..."
Lin Xi replied, "Chu Muqing is my wife."
The man's eyes were a little subtle, he nodded quickly, and introduced himself: "Oh, hello, my surname is Sun."
"Miss Chu's house is for sale, and I am in charge."
He said, and handed the business card with a good attitude.
Lin Xi politely took it, glanced at it, and responded, "Mr. Sun, hello."
"Yes, yes, I called Miss Chu just now, but I couldn't get through. Because the person who bought the house was out of town, I wanted to check the specific situation of the house first, and I was worried that the picture did not match the actual situation, so I went in and took a picture. , I don't know if it's inconvenient for you..."
Lin Xi thought for a while, and said politely, "I'm sorry, you saw it too, I can't control this kind of thing, and I won't let you in until my wife nods her head."
"Ah... so."
Lin Xi asked, "Why don't you wait? Come back another day?"
Manager Sun thought for a while, then smiled: "In that case, come over after I contact Miss Chu."
Lin Xi nodded apologetically, "I'm sorry, but please run again."
As soon as they left, she picked up the business card.
She called Zheng Yayi again and went out.
The other end of the phone picked up quickly: "Hello? Lin Xi?"
Lin Xi asked her, "Is it convenient for you to buy a house?"
Zheng Yayi: "...I have enough houses under my name. Do you have any good recommendations?"
Lin Xi asked, "What do you think of this Chu Muqing house?"
"..." Zheng Yayi was speechless for a while, and asked her, "Miss Lin, are you fooling me? The old community has no elevator, and all the elderly live in it. I..."
Lin Xi quickly stopped her: "I mean, I'll pay, can you buy it in your name?"
Zheng Yayi thought for a while: "What do you mean?" She understood again: "So, Chu Muqing is currently short of money?"
Lin Xi: …
"You want to buy it at a high price?"
Lin Xi: …
"Being a savior? Doing good deeds without leaving your name?"
Lin Xi coughed lightly: "How can you say that you are so great? Can you help me once?"
"Help! Help for sure!" Zheng Yayi suddenly laughed: "Oh, does your wife know what you mean?"
Lin Xi reminded her: "You remember, I will send you the company address of the agency's company later. When you buy it, you must say that you really liked this house, and it doesn't seem to work. You sign with her. During the contract, Chu Muqing still thinks about me..."
"It's easy, I'll find my cousin and buy it in her name."
Lin Xi said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome, my sisters don't need this."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xi's thoughts turned to the little guy.
Chu Muqing was in urgent need of money, so she had to sell the house, but where would she live after the house was sold? Although this house is an old community, the advantage is that it is close to Zaizai School, and it is convenient to go to and from school.
The original text did not explicitly explain why Chu Muqing needed money urgently, but briefly introduced that her current situation was not good and she was facing a major crisis...
What is the crisis she faces?
That person never told her what kind of difficult situation she was facing right now, even if she softened her attitude...
