Ten Years Against the Current of Rebirth

At the dim door of the rental house, two people hugged each other tightly.

Xu Xing lowered his head and sniffed the fragrance of her hair, feeling each other's strong heartbeats. In the atmosphere at this moment, it seemed that he could hear the beating of each other's hearts.

He ran his hands along her back and gently held her slender waist. He felt that Yan Chijuan's whole body was pressed tightly against him, and he even tried to stand on tiptoes. He looked down and saw Yan Chijuan in his arms trying to stand on tiptoes.

He couldn't help but smile a little and thought it was cute.

But in the next second, Xu Xing suddenly realized something. Today, Yan Chijuan seemed to be wearing extra cool clothes. She was not wearing the conservative pajamas from before, and her lovely, white and slender legs were not even wearing slippers.

The sight of his bare feet made him feel a little distressed.

Probably because he felt that he was alone in the rented apartment tonight, Yan Chijuan did not dress too conservatively. Instead, he wore something looser and more comfortable when sleeping.

But she never expected that Xu Xing would rush here from home to see her in the middle of the night specifically because of a message from her on WeChat.

When Yan Chijuan saw the message from Xu Xing in the bedroom just now, he didn't even think about changing clothes. He didn't even have time to put on his slippers and ran out immediately.

After recovering from the surprise, Yan Chijuan felt Xu Xing's big hands caressing her waist and thighs, and her body trembled slightly. She felt that the places he touched were hot.

Crispy and numb.

But she was reluctant to separate from Xu Xing, and instead hugged him tighter.

So the next second, Xu Xing didn't want his little girlfriend to continue to stand barefoot on the floor and catch the cold, so he suddenly lifted her thighs and lifted her up into the air, making Yan Chijue exclaim in a low voice.

He made a sound and quickly hugged Xu Xing's neck.

"You're not wearing slippers, aren't you afraid of catching a cold?" Xu Xing noticed her two cute little bare feet and couldn't help but laugh.

"I was so excited just now... I didn't have time to put it on." Yan Chijuan's head was buried in Xu Xing's shoulder, his voice was muffled and shy, his hands tightly hugged Xu Xing's neck, and his legs squeezed him tightly.

.

Xu Xing walked into the door, closed the door, changed his shoes, and walked in with her in his arms.

All the way to the door of Yan Chijuan's bedroom, Xu Xing walked in with Yan Chijuan's body in his arms, came to the bedside, and gently put her on the bed.

At this time, Yan Chijuan lay back on the bed, but still hugged Xu Xing tightly with his hands and feet, so that Xu Xing also pressed down, supporting the bed with his hands, and said with a smile: "I won't run away,

Why are you hugging me so tightly?"

Only then did Yan Chijue react. He let go with a blushing face and moved to the head of the bed. He blushed and covered himself with the quilt, completely hiding his beautiful figure, which made Xu Xing a little disappointed.

But soon, after Yan Chijue calmed down, he silently moved his position towards the bed, making the bed next to him empty, and whispered to Xu Xing: "Xu Xing, can you talk to me?

good."

Of course Xu Xing was not polite. After walking to the bed, he took off his slippers, lay down directly on Yan Chijuan's bed, and slept with her.

It's just that one is covered with a quilt and the other is not.

There is a difference of more than ten centimeters in the middle.

Probably because he was in bed, Yan Chijuan was more reserved than usual. He only dared to stretch out a small hand from the quilt, hold Xu Xing's big hand tightly, turned sideways, and looked at Xu Xing with his bright eyes.

I felt at ease.

"What do you want to say?" Xu Xing also turned to look at her, took her little hand and brought it to her lips and kissed her gently.

When asked by Xu Xing, Yan Chijuan couldn't think of what to say. He blinked and thought for a while before saying, "Today's dinner was delicious."

Xu Xing looked at her with a smile and couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pinch her cheek: "If you make me come all the way from home just to say this, then I can only give you a few more slaps on your little butt.

Already."

"Well..." Yan Chijue was a little embarrassed, he laughed twice, half of his face was flushed, and he shrank into the quilt, feeling that his little butt was a little itchy, "Well, then today uncle

Auntie, what did they talk about with Aunt Pei? About business? "

"Oh, um, we are indeed talking about cooperation." Xu Xing briefly talked about the current situation with Sun Wanhui, "...in short, it's pretty good. If we can really cooperate in depth in the future, it will be a win-win situation."

"That's it." Yan Chijiu responded, then fell silent again, not knowing what to say.

But Xu Xing was really moved, and he asked gently and cautiously: "What about your father? Do you want to talk to me about this?"

"He seems to be the director of the foundry now."

"Of course, if you don't want to talk, let's change the topic. Don't force yourself."

Hearing Xu Xing ask this, Yan Chijuan's face was startled for a moment, as if he was recalling past events, and his expression gradually darkened.

"Well...it's not like I can't say it."

Saying this, Yan Chijuan hesitated for a moment, then gently wrapped himself in the quilt, like a caterpillar, moving over there little by little, and finally leaned into Xu Xing's arms.

She rested her head on Xu Xing's shoulder so that she didn't have to look at Xu Xing, and then she mentioned some past events in a low voice and intermittently.

"When I was in elementary school, I felt that my parents had a very good relationship. They would take me out to play and buy me snacks, gifts, and toys."

"However, my academic performance is not very good. My parents will always criticize me, but they will not force me to sign up for any tutoring classes."

"But when I entered junior high school, the situation gradually changed..."

"Huh?" Xu Xing put his arm around her shoulders, gently stroked her head, and guided her gently and patiently, "Why has it changed?"

"That's right, that's right..." Yan Chijiu didn't know how to describe it at once. He thought about it for a while before continuing, "I live in a dormitory in junior high school. I only have classes on Saturday evening every week. After I go home for half a day, I go to school on Sunday.

You have to go back to school in the afternoon."

"But several times after I went home, I could hear my parents arguing in the middle of the night, and I even saw broken things on the ground when I woke up the next day."

"I was very scared at the time and didn't know what to do."

"I just thought that maybe it was because I didn't study hard that my parents quarreled."

"So then I started studying hard, and my grades got better and better, and I was even able to get into the top three in my class. However, the relationship between my parents did not improve. Instead, every time I came home, I could only watch them getting more and more noisy."

"Then until the second grade of junior high school..."

"Well, it's the second day of junior high school." Xu Xing expressed that he was listening carefully and asked curiously, "Has there been another change in the second year of junior high school?"

"Yes." Yan Chijue nodded vigorously, rubbing her cheek in his arms, "They stopped quarreling when they were in the second grade of junior high school."

"Is it because your grades have improved?"

"I thought that was the case." Yan Chi shrank in Xu Xing's arms with jealousy. When he said this, his whole body was trembling. "But suddenly one day, they took me to the court, and then the judge asked me, my parents.

I’m getting divorced, who do I want to follow?”

The bedroom suddenly became quiet.

Xu Xing could only feel that the body of the girl in his arms was trembling slightly, and there was no trace of her charm. The clothes on her chest were tightly grasped by her little hands, as if she was grasping something very important.

He didn't know what to say at this time, so he could only hug her tightly across the quilt to let her know that she was no longer alone.

I don't know how much time passed before Yan Chijiu continued with a choked tone: "I didn't have any choice at the time, I just relied on my feelings."

"Because after I entered junior high school, my father was either quarreling with my mother or working overtime in the factory or going on business trips."

"And my mother will pick me up from school at least on weekends, cook me dinner, and help me wash the thick clothes in school that are not easy to wash."

"So you chose to follow your mother?" Xu Xing asked softly, already having an answer in his heart.

Just thinking of the way that woman Zhang Jingya made trouble in the Internet cafe, Xu Xing couldn't help but frown in distress, and his whole heart felt like it was being pulled.

Yan Chijiu in his arms didn't seem to want to continue talking, so he just nodded his head lightly.

After a while, Xu Xing originally wanted to ask what happened next, but when he asked softly, Yan Chijuan did not respond.

He looked down and found that Yan Chijiu had fallen asleep peacefully without realizing it, but there were still a few tears in the corners of his eyes.

"Go to sleep, go to sleep." Xu Xing looked at Yan Chijiu's sleeping face with tears stained at the moment, and felt a little regretful. He would not have asked about such a thing if he had known better.

To be honest, he and Yan Chijuan worked in the same foreign company in his previous life, and he had heard countless rumors about Yan Chijuan.

Including her family, there have been various theories.

Some say it was his father who cheated on him, others said it was his mother who cheated on her, and there are also theories of domestic violence and cold violence. In short, there are all kinds of theories.

From what Yan Chijuan said, it seemed to be a simple divorce incident where the couple's relationship broke down.

Of course, Yan Chijuan was still young at that time, so even if there were any other reasons, they probably wouldn't be too clear.

Xu Xing didn't think about these things in detail. He held Yan Chijuan in his arms and his arms were pillowed by her head, making it difficult to take them away.

So he had no choice but to lie like this, look at the ceiling of the bedroom, and simply go to sleep.

It was the first time I slept in the same bed with my girlfriend... Xu Xing turned his head and glanced at the quilt wrapped around Yan Chijuan, with a helpless expression on his face.

…

October 7, 8 a.m.

Yan Chijuan woke up from his sleep, barely opened his eyes, and stretched out under the quilt.

Then she noticed something touched her arm. She turned around and found Xu Xing sleeping quietly beside her.

Only then did Yan Chijuan, who was confused, recalled that Xu Xing seemed to have come all the way from home last night, and the two of them hugged each other on the bed and talked about a lot of things... Well...

Then he seemed to fall asleep?

Thinking of this, Yan Chijuan felt a little embarrassed, rubbed his face, and sat up from the quilt carefully.

At this time, Yan Chijuan discovered that Xu Xing didn't cover himself with a quilt.

Is it possible that you didn't cover yourself with a quilt all night?

Looking at Xu Xing's shrunken feet, they rubbed each other from time to time. After he stood up, he hugged the arm that was originally pressed to his chest, frowning and looking cold.

Seeing his appearance, Yan Chijuan quickly covered Xu Xing with his quilt, covering him tightly.

After doing this, Yan Chijuan had time to calm down and recall what he had shared with Xu Xing last night. He looked down at Xu Xing's peaceful sleeping posture and couldn't help but reach out and touch his face, tracing his fingers along his cheeks.

He caressed his brows gently, his eyes full of tenderness.

Last night, Xu Xing was pressed by Yan Chijuan's head, and it took him an unknown amount of time before he fell asleep. Now that his arms were freed, he fell asleep even more deeply, showing no signs of waking up.

After Yan Chijuan admired Xu Xing's sleeping posture on the bed for a while, he confirmed that he would not wake up for a while, so he did not run outside to change clothes. He took out the clothes from the closet and quickly changed them for himself.

When taking off his clothes, Yan Chijuan was a little nervous and a little excited. He stared at Xu Xing who was sleeping, imagining the scene of Xu Xing suddenly waking up.

Fortunately, everything went well. After Yan Chijuan changed his clothes, he walked out of the room, washed up in the bathroom, and went out to buy breakfast.

When she walked to the breakfast restaurant outside the community, Xu Xing had already gotten up. Seeing that Yan Chijuan was no longer around, he called out to the room several times but no one answered, so he sent a message on his mobile phone.

[Xu Xing]: Where have you been? I have to be responsible if you fall asleep. How can you run away after sleeping?

[Yanchi vinegar]: I’m buying breakfast!

Yan Chijuan was queuing up to buy breakfast. When he lowered his head and saw this message on his phone, his face suddenly turned red.

But then she found it very interesting and immediately replied to Xu Xing.

[Yan Chi Jian]: Mr. Xu, I am just your secretary. Please forget what happened last night and just pretend that nothing happened.

Xu Xing, who was brushing his teeth, saw a message from his little girlfriend on his cell phone and almost choked to death while rinsing his mouth.

However, he still cooperated and started role-playing.

[Xu Xing]: It doesn’t matter, I will be responsible. If you are pregnant with my child, I will accompany you to give birth to the child.

[Yanchi vinegar]: No, if I really get pregnant, I will just fly away and live alone with the child.

[Xu Xing]: Then come back ten years later and complete the counterattack and slap in the face?

[Xu Xing]: What kind of bloody romantic drama script are you writing?

[Yan Chi Jian]: It was obviously you who said the following! Shouldn’t it be Mr. Xu who regrets it so much that he gave up his career and came to me all over the world?

[Xu Xing]: I guess it’s not necessary. Information is developed these days. If you have money, it’s easy to find someone.

【Yan Chi Jian】: This is boring. It’s not romantic at all.

【Xu Xing】: Wasn’t yesterday romantic enough?

【Yanchi vinegar】: Hehe~

[Yanchi vinegar]: Mr. Xu, what do you want for breakfast?

[Yan Chi Vinegar]: There are meat and vegetable dumplings, steamed dumplings, wontons, fried dumplings and noodles. Do you want soy milk, yogurt, or tofu?

【Xu Xing】:I just want to eat you now.

【Yanchi vinegar】: It’s serious!

【Xu Xing】: Just add soy milk to the two meat buns. I won’t eat too much for breakfast.

【Yan Chi Vinegar】:Okay~

…

At half past eight, Yan Chijuan returned to the rental house with breakfast in hand.

At this time, Xu Xing was already waiting at the dining table, replying to messages from employees in the company.

At this time, Xu Niannian sent a WeChat message.

[Xu Niannian]: Where are you? You went to the company early in the morning?

[Xu Xing]: Yes, what’s wrong?

[Xu Niannian]: I wanted to go with you, but you didn’t even call me!

[Xu Xing]: Who said yesterday that you would not go to work today on holiday?

[Xu Niannian]: Then you said you wanted to arrange a new project for me. I was thinking about going over today to take a look at the planning plan.

[Xu Xing]: Don’t worry, we will discuss it in a meeting after work. I have to deal with other things today.

[Xu Niannian]: Oh, so you are at the company now?

【Xu Xing】: Not yet, I’m having breakfast near the company.

[Xu Niannian]: Didn’t Auntie make breakfast? You didn’t eat it at home?

[Xu Xing]: I was in a hurry to talk to Liao Qinyu and the others, so I just came over to have breakfast and chat.

【Xu Xing】: If there is nothing else, let’s not talk about it for now.

[Xu Niannian]: Okay, okay, I’ll come find you later!

While sending a WeChat message to Xu Niannian, Xu Xing took the meat buns handed over by Yan Chijuan. After taking a big bite, Yan Chijuan had already opened the lid of the soy milk and sent it to Xu Xing.

"Eat slowly." Yan Chiju saw him taking a big bite and the soup in the meat buns splashed out. He quickly picked up a tissue and wiped his chin and lips, like a virtuous little daughter-in-law.

"You eat too." Xu Xing gestured for her to sit down and have breakfast. "After eating, go to the company. I'm still busy today."

"Hmm." Yan Chijue obediently sat down next to Xu Xing, opened the small wontons he bought, scooped one up with a spoon, and ate it in small bites.

"Give me one." Xu Xing smelled that the wontons were quite fragrant, so he came over and opened his mouth to ask for them.

Yan Chijuan carefully scooped up a small wonton and put the spoon into Xu Xing's mouth. Seeing him sipping the wonton and spoon together, his cheeks couldn't help but blush.

After Xu Xing finished eating the wontons, Yan Chijuan took the spoon back and scooped up another small wonton himself. After eating it, he secretly took a sip of the soup in the spoon.

"Here." Xu Xing asked for her wontons in vain, picked up the meat bun that he had bitten to the last bite, and stuffed it into Yan Chi's jealous little mouth.

After Yan Chiju opened his mouth to take it, he started chewing it. His face turned rosy. He lowered his head and took a sip of the soup. He felt warm and happy in his stomach.

…

At nine o'clock in the morning, Xu Xing and Yan Chijuan walked out of the house and arrived at the company on time.

The employees who came to work overtime during the holidays had already arrived at their posts. Yan Chijuan also found his desk and sat down, without disturbing Xu Xing's work, and joined the work of game maintenance and updates.

Xu Xing walked all the way into the office. Peng Yuxuan, who was packing up documents and preparing materials, saw Xu Xing coming in and quickly said hello: "Good morning, Mr. Xu."

"Well, okay." Xu Xing nodded, sat on the office chair, and said to Peng Yuxuan, "Go and call Gong Ao and Liao Qinyu. If Dai Zhuoshan is not busy, he will come too."

"Okay Mr. Xu."

Peng Yuxuan put down the work at hand, immediately walked out of the office, and called Gong Ao and the others.

After a while, Gong Ao, who was on the same floor, knocked on the door and walked into the office. Before Xu Xing could say anything, he already said with a gloomy face:

"Mr. Xu, some employees have been poached."

"Um?"

"Two from the game department, four from the WeChat assistant, and one from Dai Zhuoshan." Gong Ao's face was solemn as he informed Xu Xing of the bad news, "Now we can basically confirm that it was all done by Tencent."
