Transmigrated as the male lead's roommate's vicious girlfriend
Chapter 4 Coldly Scrubbing the Bed Sheets
Ning Xi's quiet and obedient manner as he tended to his wounds made He Kezhou unable to suppress the itch in his throat any longer.
He tilted his head and coughed several times.
Seeing that he was coughing badly, Ning Xi wanted to take the cotton swab from his hand and treat it herself.
He Kezhou dodged her outstretched hand the instant she reached out.
Ning Xi was a little embarrassed. "I can do it myself."
He Kezhou threw the used cotton swabs into the trash can and placed the opened packet of cotton swabs and iodine next to her.
Ning Xi applied the medicine to her palm, gasping for breath in pain as she did so.
After applying the medicine, she sat on the sofa and looked at He Kezhou who had entered the kitchen.
After a while, she heard the sound of the water boiling.
Ning Xi touched her stomach.
That day, the original owner only ate a few fried dumplings for lunch, and because of a stomachache, he didn't eat dinner.
Ning Xi got up from the sofa and went into the kitchen.
Once the water boiled, He Kezhou put a large bag of noodles in.
Ning Xi knew he was resisting her approach. Standing in the kitchen doorway, she swallowed hard. "I haven't had dinner either. Could you make me some?"
He Kezhou didn't look up and poured the rest of the noodles into the pot.
He was too sleepy to think about why Ning Xi went into the kitchen and why she told him she wanted to eat noodles.
Two bowls of plain noodles with only salt and no oil were served on the table.
Ning Xi held her chopsticks, and seeing that He Kezhou had no intention of sitting down to eat with her, she held her bowl, lowered her head, and picked up a mouthful of noodles.
The noodles were unpalatable and bland, and Ning Xi ate very slowly, but she finished the whole bowl of noodles that He Kezhou had served her, and even drank the noodle soup.
This bowl of noodles isn't very tasty, but it can relieve hunger.
For the past month, He Kezhou has been eating plain noodles almost every meal.
Ning Xi washed the bowls and chopsticks she had used and looked at the noodles on the table that had cooled down and started to clump together.
On the balcony of the room, He Kezhou vigorously scrubbed the stains on the bed sheets.
Out of the corner of Ning Xi's eye, she saw him coldly scrubbing the dirty sheets he had changed for her.
She found the cold medicine in the first-aid kit, poured a glass of warm water, and went into the room.
Ning Xi walked up to He Kezhou and handed him the cold medicine and warm water in her hand.
He Kezhou looked at her strangely.
Ning Xi spoke up, "Your voice is hoarse, and you're coughing. This is some cold medicine I found in the first-aid kit."
He Kezhou took the white sensory pill and swallowed it without water.
He didn't touch the glass of water.
Ning Xi didn't insist. She took the warm water, sat on the bed, and drank it slowly.
He Kezhou threw the freshly rubbed bed sheets and duvet cover into the washing machine.
It's too late now, using the washing machine will disturb the neighbors. If I wash it tomorrow morning, Ning Xi will complain that it's disturbing her sleep. Let Ning Xi press the washing machine button herself—
He Kezhou suppressed this thought and idea.
Ning Xi never washes her own clothes after changing them; she just throws them somewhere and wears them again the next time she finds them. If no one washes them for her, she will always wear clothes that look clean but smell bad.
The silence and quiet in the air made Ning Xi feel as if she were the only person in the room.
He Kezhou stood by the washing machine for a while, and Ning Xi guessed that he probably didn't want to wash it at night for fear of disturbing the neighbors. "I'll wash it at home tomorrow morning, spin it dry, and then hang it up to dry. Your noodles are already cold."
He Kezhou came out from the balcony. "I'm coming back to air it out."
Will she wash it?
He Kezhou didn't actually have any hope.
She wouldn't hold out any hope; she would simply hang the sheets and duvet covers out to dry.
The noodles on the table had dried out and shriveled up.
Before He Kezhou put the noodles into his mouth with a blank expression.
The next second, he rushed into the bathroom.
He dug his fingertips down his throat and pulled out the noodles he had swallowed, along with the cold medicine Ning Xi had given him.
He Kezhou turned on the tap, scooped water to rinse his mouth, and then splashed water on his face before returning to the dining table.
He Kezhou ate all the plain noodles on the table and the remaining plain noodles in the pot.
When he was washing the dishes and pots, he saw the pink pig bowl that Ning Xi had used and the chopsticks of the same color that had been washed and placed on the dish rack, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Ning Xi, in the room, had her left hand pressed against her stomach, unsure whether to lie down or sit.
My lower abdomen started to bloat and ache again, and my lower back and back also hurt.
My hands and knees are also in pain.
In that instant, she felt that she had been deeply hurt by this world.
Ningxi, you must be strong.
She encouraged herself in her heart.
Ning Xi couldn't sit still or lie down, so she went to the living room.
The second bedroom she shared with He Kezhou didn't have a bathroom, so they had to wash up in the bathroom in the living room.
She was waiting for He Kezhou to come out so she could brush her teeth and change into a new sanitary napkin.
Ning Xi stared at the cup of milk tea on the coffee table for a long time.
She touched the side of the milk tea cup; it was still hot.
Ning Xi was actually quite full, but she had already bought it, and it would be a waste not to drink it.
She drank the brown sugar pearl milk tea to the last drop before He Kezhou emerged from the bathroom naked.
The pearls at the bottom slid down the straw into Ningxi's throat, and Ningxi coughed violently.
He Kezhou seemed to have long been used to not wearing anything.
Ning Xi covered her eyes, her face burning red: "Why aren't you wearing any clothes?!"
He Kezhou looked at her, puzzled.
Ning Xi's rule was that he was not allowed to sleep in clothes.
"If you don't want to touch me, then take your clothes off and show me."
"You've looked at me, I've looked at you, that's fair, isn't it?"
The two sentences that the original owner said to He Kezhou resonated powerfully in Ning Xi's mind.
Ning Xi's eyelashes trembled violently.
He Kezhou was already used to it, but Ning Xi's repeated unusual behavior tonight left him puzzled as to what this woman was up to.
Ning Xi stammered, "You, you, you can wear clothes to sleep from now on."
He Kezhou stopped in his tracks.
The woman had her back to him, her ears as red as the color of the bouquet of red roses he delivered that evening.
To be able to wear clothes and sleep with dignity.
He had forgotten what it felt like.
Ning Xi waited outside for a long time before reluctantly entering the room.
He Kezhou was wearing trousers and a black T-shirt, which relieved her.
The man was already lying curled up on the black yoga mat with his back turned.
The yoga mat was too small, and half of the man's legs were on the cold floor.
"He Kezhou, you can go sleep in the bed. I changed the blankets and sheets tonight. I'll sleep on the sofa."
He Kezhou did not open his eyes.
Ning Xi received no response, so she grabbed a thick blanket and went to the living room.
The door closed behind him, and He Kezhou opened his eyes.
He stared at the closed door for a long, long time, until he could no longer resist the overwhelming drowsiness and fell into a deep sleep.
Ning Xi lay on the sofa, wrapped in a blanket, when she suddenly remembered that she had used the bath towel in the bathroom and hadn't put it back.
Even if it's washed clean and put back, He Kezhou probably won't use it again.
The man's body was still damp after showering...
Ning Xi covered her face.
Stop thinking about it!
