Early in the morning.
The bedroom was already very bright.
Xu Qing did not have the habit of drawing the curtains. Ever since Jiang He moved in, he would cover half of the curtains. Half of the bed in the room would be covered, and the empty space would allow light to pass through. This way, the sunlight would not pass through the window and shine on his face, and the room would not be dark.
If one slept early the night before, they would wake up early in the morning. Xu Qing woke up first, but there was no movement from Jiang He.
He opened his eyes and looked at the side of Jiang He's face. Xu Qing did not move either. Unknowingly, his hand had slipped under her clothes and was placed on Jiang He's stomach. Jiang He's body was curled up. When she slept at night, her body had been turned around, and her back was facing him in his arms.
The heroine really did not snore when she slept.
Xu Qing leaned close to her neck and took a deep breath. Before he could savor the taste, he heard Jiang He ask, "Are you a puppy?"
"I was born in the year of the dog."
In between these two sentences, Jiang He had already pulled his hand away from her stomach. Then, she jumped up and stood on the ground to stretch.
"I like to smell everything …"
Xu Qing did not say anything. He hid under the quilt and looked at her exposed curves when she stretched. His eyes were bright and full of expression.
Unfortunately, he could not beat him.
"Don't you want to lie down for a while more?" He generously lifted the quilt and invited.
Jiang He glanced at him. It was obvious that he refused.
Xu Qing did not mind and covered the quilt again. "Did you wake up early?"
He suspected that Jiang He was fishing. If he had moved just now, he would have immediately used the super invincible Firestorm Wheels of Death, followed by a few back throws, then the Eagle Stomp, and finally the Martial God's KO.
"No, I just woke up."
"I don't believe it."
"Believe it or not, it's up to you."
Jiang He took her clothes from the clothes rack. She could not be bothered to argue with him. Anyway, there was no evidence.
This guy was like a puppy. Smelling her clothes was not enough, and he even wanted to smell her neck. It was itchy.
"Actually, you can change here. I won't peek." Xu Qing wrapped himself in the thin quilt and held onto it tightly. Only his head poked out and he looked like a maggot lying on the bed looking at her.
"Then what are you doing?" Jiang He looked at Xu Qing.
"Close your eyes now."
Xu Qing closed his eyes and waited for a while. When he didn't hear the door open, he opened his eyes a little and saw Jiang He's face right in front of him.
"We don't trust each other. This kind of relationship won't last." Xu Qing squirmed back in disappointment.
Jiang He squatted beside the bed and tilted his head. He reached out and pulled a big stuffed bear to cover his head.
"Don't move."
"…"
Although it was covered by the big bear, Xu Qing could still see a complete picture in his head. It couldn't be helped. Sometimes the human brain couldn't control itself.
However, this was already a big improvement. Previously, Jiang He had to run to the utility room to change out of his pajamas. She didn't know why he suddenly took a step back now.
Could it be that he had a cold and hadn't slept together for a few days? Jiang He lay here alone and couldn't sleep. He gradually understood her feelings and became like this because of his shyness?
Xu Qing didn't have an answer to this question for the time being. He curled up comfortably in the quilt. After Jiang He went out, he rolled a few times on the bed and smelled the lingering fragrance on the pillow. After about ten minutes, he learned from Jiang He and jumped out of bed.
Coming out of the living room, Jiang He had already washed up and was making breakfast in the kitchen. The sizzling sound of the frying pan meant that they were going to eat fried eggs today.
"Aren't we a little abnormal right now?" Jiang He asked from the kitchen.
"We've never been normal … By the way, what are you referring to?"
"We're sleeping together."
"It's normal to sleep together, but you're still guarding against me. It's not normal."
"What would it be like now if we were modern people?"
"Well … modern people … Gulu gulu … modern people should be shameless every day, running around the bedroom and living room naked … Gulu gulu … other things that should happen should have happened."
Xu Qing said while rinsing his mouth. After pausing for a while, he didn't hear Jiang He say anything again. He squeezed out the toothpaste and began to brush his teeth.
It was impossible for something happy to happen. According to Jiang He's character, if she stuck to the Kaiyuan tradition, she would definitely stick to it until the day of her marriage. Maybe she would even prepare a piece of white cloth in advance …
Maybe she would take the breast wrapping cloth, reuse it, and then cut it off and put it in the coffin with her decades later.
Unless she really accepted the modern transformation and had her thoughts and ideas refreshed … Regarding this matter, Xu Qing felt that there were pros and cons. There was nothing wrong with sticking to the Kaiyuan tradition.
Anyway, he was not in a rush for time. It would be good if Jiang He could accept it. If she didn't, it would be fine to wait until they got married. This kind of girl was a treasure in the current era.
As long as he teased her occasionally, it would be fun … It was just that the biological flaw of men was too big. Sometimes, it was hard to control themselves when they were impulsive. That was why there were two accidents.
After brushing his teeth, Xu Qing wiped his face and came out of the living room. When he saw Jiang He's slender figure holding a spatula in the kitchen, his thoughts were immediately thrown out of his mind.
It was better to sleep early. The earlier he could be embarrassed, the earlier he could enjoy it.
"Hey!"
Xu Qing got into a fighting stance and began to practice his boxing.
"I'm going fishing with Pingping later. Is there anything you want to buy? I'll bring it back for you on the way."
During breakfast, Jiang He asked Xu Qing. She knew that this guy was very homebody when he was alone. If it wasn't for the black fatty and the rich guy calling him, he basically wouldn't go out.
"I'll go out later. Do you want to go to my mom's place at noon? I might stay there for lunch. "
When Jiang He heard that he was going home, she thought for a while and said, "Then I won't go fishing. I'll go with Pingping in the afternoon."
"It's okay. You guys go ahead. I'll go by myself. Maybe they won't ask me to stay there for lunch."
Anyway, it wasn't far from home. He could go anytime. Jiang He didn't have any objections. They promised to contact each other through WeChat. If they came back early, they could go again.
Xu Qing rested for a while after finishing his meal. He sorted out his emails and private messages, then put on his armor and took two short videos to send to his business partners so that they could take a look and make a choice. It wasn't until ten o 'clock that he left with his phone.
It was the end of July. The heat was at its peak. It wasn't noon yet, but the sun was already scorching.
Zhao Shu hid under an umbrella. He held a big fan in his hand and waved it slowly. There was a big pot of chrysanthemum tea on the table. When he saw Xu Qing, he waved the fan to greet him.
"I just saw Jiang He and Pingping go out with fishing rods. You didn't go with them?"
"I'm too good at fishing. They don't like to go with me. It makes them look stupid."
"Keep bragging. I've seen their little fish in the bucket a few times." Zhao Shu snorted. He picked up his cup and took a sip of tea.
As an independent and equal person, Jiang He should have her personal space. If she wanted Xu Qing to accompany her, she would naturally ask for it.
Since Xu Qing discovered the problem half a year ago, he had been paying attention to it. Now, he had figured out how to get along with her. As long as they were out of the house, he would treat her like a modern girlfriend.
After casually chatting with Zhao Shu, Xu Qing walked to the bus stop in the shadow of the wall and took the bus home.
It was the weekend. Xu Wenbin didn't go to work. He was reading the newspaper at home. When he saw Xu Qing coming over, he pushed up his glasses.
"Dad, where's my mom?"
"She went to play mahjong."
"Playing mahjong so early in the morning? Isn't it always in the afternoon?"
Xu Qing didn't even sit down. He saw half a grapefruit on the table and immediately broke it open. "This grapefruit is good. Is it from the company?"
"There are a few more in the kitchen. If you like it, you can take two back and eat with Jiang He." Xu Wenbin saw that Jiang He wasn't following him. It was just this kid alone. He shook the newspaper and continued reading.
This kid was probably busy.
Coincidentally, he was also thinking about when to ask Xu Qing to come over.
He didn't tell Zhou Suzhi about Jiang He. She was … let's just say complicated. Xu Qing finding such a complicated girl to be his girlfriend was actually quite normal.
It was unexpected but reasonable.
It would be the biggest joke in the world if Xu Qing was really living a proper life. Either Xu Qing was sick, or Xu Wenbin was hallucinating. Back in the winter, when he went to see this guy living like a couple, dutifully and peacefully, Xu Wenbin felt that something was wrong. Something was wrong in every way.
Sure enough, his premonition was right.
He was relieved.
