Chapter 185 [Shi Yi 035] Thinking about it tonight
The following morning, all five of them gathered in Yi Xu's hospital room, plus Yin Qianran.

When they arrived, Yi Xu's great-aunt and parents were also there, instantly making the entire ward feel crowded.

When Madam Yi saw that Yin Qianran was heavily pregnant, she pulled her to sit in the living room, leaving the space to her brothers, and asked her kindly how long she had been pregnant.

As soon as the three elders left, Chu Feng, Lu Xuming, and Jiang Huaichuan couldn't help but burst into laughter. Although they tried to control their laughter, their gloating expressions were all too obvious.

Yi Xu glanced at them with disdain, "Leave your things, and you can get lost!"

"You're heartless! We came to see you out of kindness," Jiang Huaichuan said with a smile.

"You came to see me out of kindness? Or did you come to laugh at me?" Yi Xu sneered. "Looks like I didn't know you well enough. I was thinking of calling you over to show my brotherhood, but you turned out to be such beasts!"

"Hey, you're mistaken. Speaking of which, it's been so many years since we've seen your performance. I really miss it!" Lu Xuming chimed in with a sarcastic remark.

"Brother Xu, lift up your clothes and let us see how deep the injury is?"

"roll roll roll!"

Wen Qi remained relatively calm, at least not as obviously gloating as they were. Yi Xu chose to ignore the hint of pleasure in his eyes.

His deep, steady voice rang in my ears, "What did you do to offend your old man?"

Shi Wan didn't know what Yi Xu was talking about with his brothers. She was finally able to sleep in again and didn't go to the company until the afternoon.

I receive messages from Yi Xu morning, noon, and night, and occasionally I'll banter with her.

But during the few days he was "on a business trip," he only sent messages and didn't make a single phone call.

Shi Wan didn't take it to heart. On the seventh day, he said he would be back the next morning and asked if she wanted to have lunch together.
Shi Wan replied with an "okay," but Yi Xu suddenly became unreasonable again: "Aren't you going to ask me what time my flight is tomorrow?"

She followed up by asking: What time?

Yi Xu: 10:30.

Shi Wan: Oh, okay.

Yi Xu: Why didn't you say you were coming to pick me up?
Shi Wan: Pick up your sister! Too much trouble! Don't I have to go to work?

Yi Xu sent a pitiful emoji: I don't have a sister, and even if I did, I wouldn't need you to pick me up.

Shi Wan: ...

When Yi Xu saw the ellipsis, he unconsciously curled his lips into a smile.

He was so blatant in saying that he knew Shi Wan would never do something like picking someone up at the airport.

Actually, he could have been discharged from the hospital the day before yesterday.

But Madam Yi was worried, especially because one of the bloodstains was particularly deep. She was afraid that he would go back and take a bath or something, and wouldn't pay any attention to the wound.

It took a lot of pleading and cajoling to get him to stay in the hospital a few more days.

Yi Xu was so obsessed with Shi Wan that he was practically going moldy.

He hadn't heard her voice for many days, and these past two days he had been dreaming about her. When he woke up and saw the familiar ceiling, his heart sank instantly.

The days spent in the hospital felt like an eternity!
Lu Xuming and his friends were always busy, but they would come every afternoon to play cards and other games to pass the time.

The next day, as soon as he was discharged from the hospital, he declined Madam Yi's invitation to return to the old house and went straight back to Jingyuan. He took a shower and washed his hair, changed his clothes, and called Shi Wan to ask where she was.

Shi Wan had nothing to do today, so she slept until 10 a.m. and made an appointment with the pet store to give Princess a bath at 2 p.m.

"What to eat for lunch?"

"It's all right."

Do you cook for yourself?

Do you think I have time to do it?

"Then why do I see that your kitchen has all the necessary ingredients: oil, rice, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea?"

"Oh, sometimes when I'm starving, I'll cook some instant noodles or egg noodles. Occasionally, Ah-Xian comes over, and she cooks for me." "..."

"Then should I have it packed up?"

"Row."

When Shi Wan is on break, she doesn't like to talk about work. Once she says she'll take a break, she'll be oblivious to everything else. Even if the company is about to go bankrupt, she won't even blink.

Of course, Yu Xuan and the others wouldn't call to disturb her when she was resting.

Yi Xu arrived at 12:30.

She brought a lot of things, including beer and soda, crayfish and sauerkraut fish, as well as a steamed chicken and the hot and sour shredded potatoes she had requested in a previous message.

He didn't knock, but skillfully entered the password, pushed the door open, and the princess came running over, holding her feather duster-like tail.

Yi Xu put the things on the ground, took out a pair of disposable slippers from the shoe cabinet and put them on, then patted the princess's head, "Haven't seen you for so many days, did you miss Daddy?"

"Meow~"

The princess cooperated by calling out in a sweet, soft voice.

Yi Xu sighed inwardly: I've only met this little guy once. They say pets resemble their owners, but this princess is nothing like that. Look at her, she's already so enthusiastically coming up to me and acting all cute.

More than a minute passed, and the woman still hadn't come over.

"Where's your mother?"

"Meow~"

The two lingered in the entryway for two minutes before Shi Wan, who was curled up on the sofa watching a variety show, finally couldn't resist getting up and walking over, glancing at him from across the hallway.

He then looked away, picked up his beer and drank his soft drink, and asked casually, "Why did you buy beer?"

Shi Wan today did not appear as refined as he had seen her before.

That aggressive oval face was not made up, but was still fair-skinned. Her hair was simply held up with a hair clip, and she wore an apricot-colored tank top and denim shorts.

Cool and relaxed.

"I bought crayfish in case you wanted to drink them."

"Crayfish?" Shi Wan's eyes lit up, but then dimmed again as she thought of something. "I would definitely drink it tonight, but I have to go out after dinner, so I can't drink alcohol."

Yi Xu put the princess down, picked up the bags, and walked to the restaurant. "To the company?"

"Take this guy to take a bath."

Shi Wan pointed to the little guy rubbing against Yi Xu's trouser leg on the ground.

Yi Xu glanced at it, curled his lips, and said, "Eat if you want to eat tonight, drink if you want to drink now. I'll drive you there later."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Wan opened a can of beer without hesitation, took a sip, and sat down happily. "I haven't been to the supermarket for the past few days, and the refrigerator has been empty for days."

Actually, I'm just lazy.

She hasn't been busy these past few days. She arrives at the company at 9:30 every morning and leaves around 4 or 5 in the afternoon. Sometimes she doesn't go to the company until the afternoon and leaves no later than 5:30.

But I never even considered going to the supermarket.

I only order takeout when I feel like drinking it, and I also get a can with it.

Yi Xu glanced at her, took two long strides to stand in front of her, leaned down slightly, one hand on the table and the other on the back of the chair, and asked in a low voice, "Don't you miss me?"

Shi Wan slightly raised her eyes and met those indifferent and aloof peach blossom eyes.

She simply turned her head away, pushing his head aside, and pointed to the food in the bag, "I'll think about it tonight. Right now, I only want this."

"Thinking about it tonight? What are your thoughts tonight?" Yi Xu raised an eyebrow and asked her with amusement.

"Don't pretend with me!" Shi Wan glared at him angrily. "Let's eat!"
