Chapter 478 Pretending to be stupid
Chapter 478 Pretending to be stupid
Xiao Yangzhi slept for twelve or thirteen hours and did not wake up until eight or nine o'clock. It was the first time that Xu Mingyuan saw her sleep for so long.
During this period, Xu Mingyuan checked on her several times. Seeing that her breathing was regular and there was no sign of fever, he did not wake her up.
As the end of the year approaches, Xu Mingyuan says he is busy and not busy at the same time. The company is full of entertainment matters, and in most cases his father can handle them alone.
This was not the first or second time that Xu Mingyuan fooled Xiao Taotao. He said he was going to Jiangcheng today, but actually he stayed at home.
After all, given Xiao Yangzhi's current condition, it's not easy for him to go out and wander around.
When Yang Zhi slowly woke up, his head was still dizzy. He reached out and felt around, and the mattress on the other side was already cold.
Opening his eyes, a faint light came from the room. Yang Zhi raised his head and saw Xu Mingyuan holding a notebook on the sofa. He coughed lightly and said, "Brother, what time is it?"
"It's past ten o'clock. Are you hungry?"
"I'm not hungry. I've already eaten. Don't you want to sleep, brother?"
"Are you confused or did you eat this in a dream? It's almost noon, it's time to have lunch."
"Ok?"
Yang Zhi scratched her hair in confusion, as if thinking about the meaning of Xu Mingyuan's words. When she realized it was the next day, she came to her senses and suddenly opened her eyes wide.
"You haven't gotten much sleep these days?" Xu Mingyuan asked.
"Can't sleep..."
"Are you unable to sleep, or are you deliberately not wanting to sleep?"
"I did not want to sleep on purpose, but the more I did not want to sleep, the faster I fell asleep, and the more I wanted to sleep, the harder I fell asleep..." Yang Zhi said embarrassedly.
"I think you're asking for a beating."
"Brother, is it now?" Yang Zhi asked in a low voice.
"Hurry up and get ready for dinner."
Xu Mingyuan pulled open the curtains, allowing the soft winter sunlight to shine into the room.
"Oh……"
Yang Zhi narrowed his eyes and took a long time to calm down before moving and sitting up.
"Have a headache?"
Xu Mingyuan stood up and walked over, holding her face and looking at her still confused eyes.
"It's a little bit..."
Yang Zhi leaned softly against him, not thinking of anything else.
I got home before six o'clock last night. I had a simple bowl of noodles and went back to my room to rest. I wanted to chat, but I fell asleep as soon as I hit the bed. I didn't even brush my teeth or wash my face.
"Are you crazy? Do you still think I'm a child? Do you think I'm guilty and will be too embarrassed to go out for a long trip next time?"
Xu Mingyuan shook his head helplessly and inserted his fingers into her hair, pressing her scalp.
Xiao Yangzhi is just a little girl after all. Tao Shuxin never does such stupid things, and it is not her personality that would allow her to do such a thing.
A woman can forgive a man who hurts her, but she cannot forgive a man who makes sacrifices for her.
Just like the way Xu Jun and Yang Hongyu got along with each other before.
Xu Jun gave everything to pull Yang Hongyu and her daughter out of the quagmire, but in the blink of an eye, his kindness turned into hatred.
Xiao Yangzhi may have a similar mentality, but she doesn't want to leave Xu Mingyuan, so she plays this trick, trying to offset her inner anxiety with her guilt.
This is also a worry.
Xu Mingyuan had a headache.
Why can’t we be like little Taotao and be happy all day long?
But now it is no longer possible. Tao Shuxin also began to think about whether the relationship between him and Xiao Yangzhi is normal or not.
Fortunately, Tao Shuxin doesn't hide her thoughts, and even if she tries to test him, Xu Mingyuan can see through it at a glance.
The way to deal with it is very simple. Just pretend to be stupid and pretend that you don’t understand, then Tao Shuxin won’t try to probe you.
"Brother, I want to take a shower. I feel sticky and uncomfortable."
Yang Zhi lay in Xu Mingyuan's arms for a while, then raised her eyes and looked at him.
After a long sleep, although my head was still dizzy, I felt very comfortable, and it seemed that the colors around me were brighter.
The spirit is full, but the body is not.
"Go."
Xu Mingyuan let go of her soft body and threw her onto the bed.
"Together?"
Yang Zhi moved to his legs relentlessly, continued to hook her arms around his neck and asked.
"I washed it last night, you go by yourself, finish it quickly, and then go to eat quickly."
"I stayed at Aunt Tao Shuxin's house the day before yesterday. It was very hot in the room. I didn't take off my warm clothes yet and I was sweating all over. Can you help me rub my back..."
"You're not done yet? Go now."
Xu Mingyuan threw her aside again.
This poor kid's stomach was growling with hunger, but he was still thinking about seducing him and didn't even worry about fainting from hypoglycemia.
"Oh……"
Yang Zhi was a little discouraged and had to stand up.
In fact, there is a better way, but Yang Zhi didn’t wash last night and felt that he smelled bad.
But he shouldn't care, right?
Yang Zhi took two steps forward, then fell back, and then wrapped her whole body around him, insisting that he go with her.
After being pestered by Xiao Yangzhi for a while, and seeing that she was determined to get what she wanted, Xu Mingyuan didn't want to waste any more time, so he simply picked her up by the waist and went to take a shower together.
All day long, Yang Zhi didn't let Xu Mingyuan get out of bed. No matter whether he was working or having fun, she kept pestering him, trying to test how long he could tolerate her and whether he was tired of her.
"Brother, I want to take a bath." Yang Zhi raised his head and said.
"Then go."
"But it's on the second floor."
"Wait a couple of days, while I find someone to install one."
"okay."
Yang Zhi agreed hesitantly.
The two hadn't taken a bath in a long time. The last time they went was when no one was at home, but they quickly finished and went back upstairs.
Yang Zhi likes cleanliness and likes to soak for a longer time. She also wants to use all her skills to keep Xu Mingyuan by her side.
Because she has no other skills, except that she is pretty...
It was three days later that Tao Shuxin returned to Nanxi.
It is less than half a month away from the New Year. During these three days, Xu Mingyuan has not left his home. Even the year-end bonus award ceremony was presided over by his father, the honorary chairman, and he himself did not show up.
"Xiao Zhizhi, you look so good."
Tao Shuxin pinched Xiao Yangzhi's face and marveled at it.
"Ah."
Yang Zhi responded and curled up in the soft sofa in a very unladylike manner, crossing her legs leisurely, with the half slipper hooked on her toes, dangling gently.
There is no need to be rigid, it is actually quite comfortable.
"What have you been doing these days? Why do you look so good?"
Tao Shuxin continued to poke Xiao Yangzhi's soft and elastic face with her fingertips.
Good complexion is one thing, but the most important thing is that Xiao Yangzhi's temperament is not as depressed as before. She has a warm feeling, like a spring breeze.
"I didn't do anything, just stayed at home."
Yang Zhi was too lazy to pay attention to her and let Tao Shuxin pinch her face.
"Is it?"
Tao Shuxin looked carefully at Yang Zhi's face, which was white with a hint of pink, and looked as if it could be squeezed out of water.
I remember that I used to get acne every now and then, but later my bedside life became harmonious, my endocrine system became balanced, and I rarely got acne anymore.
"Yes, please stop pinching me, okay?" Yang Zhi said.
"not good."
Tao Shuxin shook her head and continued to touch her face.
"..."
Yang Zhi stopped talking and followed her.
Xu Mingyuan went out to buy some things temporarily. Although Tao Shuxin's grandfather's family was a scholarly family, they had a lot of rigid and old-fashioned rules, so it was not appropriate to give them cigarettes and alcohol as gifts. They could only give gifts such as pens, ink, paper and inkstone.
He was supposed to buy it yesterday, but Xiao Yangzhi didn't want him to go out, so he stayed for one more day.
When Xu Mingyuan learned that Xiao Taotao was about to return to Nanxi, the little girl would definitely be furious if she didn't buy some gifts.
When Xu Mingyuan returned home, he saw Tao Shuxin playing games with Xiao Yangzhi.
When Tao Shuxin saw Xu Mingyuan coming back, she immediately pulled him into another room.
"What do you want to do? Are you in such a hurry?"
Seeing Tao Shuxin locked the door, Xu Mingyuan threw down his coat and said.
"Get out of the way, what are you doing?" Tao Shuxin asked with a roll of his eyes.
"I'm going out. I can't stay at home forever, right?"
Xu Mingyuan did not tell Tao Shuxin that he bought the gift at the last minute. This attitude was too perfunctory.
"Oh."
Tao Shuxin relaxed a little instantly. She used to think that the temptations of the outside world were too great, and she was a little worried every time Xu Mingyuan went out.
But now that I think about it, Xu Mingyuan is with Xiao Yangzhi all day, which makes people more worried...
"What's wrong? Do you need me to report to you what you are doing?" Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.
"Tsk, I don't care what you do."
Tao Shuxin has never been curious about what Xu Mingyuan does every day. After all, he is very busy, and his cell phone and computer are not protected. If he can hook up with young girls outside, it can be considered a capability for him.
"Then why did you drag me into the house? Hey, you eat well in town. I think you've gained weight."
Xu Mingyuan picked up the heavy little girl and felt that she had gained at least two kilograms in the few days she had been in the town.
"You're talking nonsense! It's winter when the clothes are thick! Where are the sweaters and trousers I'm wearing!"
Tao Shuxin immediately retorted with her eyes wide open, saying that weight is a taboo for girls, so how can you say that you have gained weight?
"Really? Let me check..."
"Get up! This is Xiaozhizhi's bedroom! You are going to die!"
Tao Shuxin struggled constantly, fearing that Xu Mingyuan would not pay attention to the occasion and start making trouble in Xiao Yangzhi's room.
If that's really the case, how can I face Xiao Yangzhi?
"Yes, yes, yes. I'll go chase Xiao Yangzhi out."
Xu Mingyuan hadn't thought about the room issue for a long time and almost took off Tao Shuxin's clothes.
"Oh! Are you sick? Let me ask you something!"
Tao Shuxin angrily kicked Xu Mingyuan on the calf and rolled her eyes.
"what's up?"
"Why is Xiaozhizhi in a better mood?"
"She doesn't like Zhou Ping, and my dad is often not at home. She is not comfortable living alone at home. It will be fine when I come back." Xu Mingyuan said.
"I'm still playing with her, why can't I achieve this effect?" Tao Shuxin asked with narrowed eyes.
"No way? I see you're having a lot of fun playing with Xiao Yangzhi, the keyboard is clanging loudly."
"No, I was talking about a few days ago." Tao Shuxin emphasized again.
"Yeah, wasn't she alone a few days ago?"
"..." Tao Shuxin felt a little tight in the chest, holding her breath and asked: "Stop talking nonsense here, I'm asking why Xiao Yangzhi is not very happy with me?"
"She doesn't like to go out. You know that. If you stay at home with her and play games for two days, she will definitely be happy."
"Really?" Tao Shuxin asked suspiciously.
"What do you think?" Xu Mingyuan asked back.
"Yes, isn't it..."
What Xu Mingyuan said seemed to make some sense. Tao Shuxin thought about it and stopped asking questions.
Xu Mingyuan also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Tao Shuxin didn't get to the bottom of it, he wouldn't take the initiative to reveal it.
When it comes to relationships, some things just can't be explained logically.
You can doubt and guess, but you must never embarrass anyone.
Playing dumb is the best way to suit the current situation...
