Chapter 76: Tempting Li Muchi
After that, if I talk to Jin Yebai in a normal tone, Li Muchi will find out that I am pretending to be drunk, and if I talk to him in a vague expectation, then Jin Yebai will know that I have drunk, no matter what I do, I can only choose to hang up in the end.
But Jin Yebai is simply not a human being, he never stopped after I hung up the phone once, called again and again, I wanted to turn off the phone, and I was afraid that he would drive over in the middle of the night if he was worried, then I would be even more miserable.
After thinking about it for a while, I finally answered his call, "Hey, Xiaobai, what are you doing, I'm sleepy, can't I wait for tomorrow?"
I think this method is good, I was just drowsy, and I was naturally confused when I spoke, no matter how powerful Jin Yebai was, he couldn't tell that I was drinking, and Li Muchi couldn't tell if I was really confused or fake.
"Are you at home now?" Jin Yebai asked.
I was immediately awakened by his question, he wouldn't be downstairs in my apartment by now, so if I said, "I'm at home," I'd have broken down the diorama.
However, with Jin Yebai's temperament, it is really possible to stay downstairs, if so, I will not be able to continue to test Li Muchi's character.
"Are you at my house?" I asked cautiously.
"No, if you don't answer the phone, I'll probably come. Jin Yebai said.
"That's good. I was secretly relieved.
"What did you say?" Jin Yebai immediately noticed my snickering.
"I'm really sleepy, I'm going to sleep, can I call you tomorrow?" After speaking, I didn't wait for him to answer, just hung up the phone and continued to pretend to be asleep.
It didn't take long for us to return to the apartment, the car stopped abruptly, Li Muchi shouted a few times in my ear, I pretended not to hear, closed my eyes as if I was sleeping soundly.
Li Muchi was silent for a while, I guess he might be thinking about what to do next, whether to forcibly wake me up, or let me sleep like this?
The car started again very quickly, and it meant that he was going to drive the car in front of his apartment, which meant that he was going to take me to his house?
My heart lifted slightly.
Sure enough, when he stopped the car again and gently carried me out, I quietly opened my eyes and looked at the front of his apartment, but I still didn't move, anyway, the phone was in my hand at this time.
He lives on the third floor, although I am less than a hundred pounds, but it is not so easy for him to carry it, as the floor increases, his speed is getting slower and slower, his steps are getting heavier and heavier, and even the wheezing sound is getting louder and louder.
Eventually, he stopped, put me down and held me on, pulled out the key to open the door, and then carried me in again, and finally put me on his bed.
I have to say that pretending to sleep is also a very hard thing, I wanted to open my eyes several times to see his expression, whether it was a lewd face like Zhao Dekai, or a decent gentleman like Yanagi Hui.
He put me down and took off my bag and my shoes, and then I heard footsteps go away, and I secretly opened my eyes again to see that he was out of the bedroom.
After a while, he came in with a basin of water, I quickly closed my eyes, and then I felt a warmth on my face, he was actually wiping my face, this kind of thing had only been done to me by Zhou Mingchuan and Jin Yebai before.
After wiping my face, he went out, but soon came back, and my heart instantly lifted again, hoping that he would not let me down, and that he must not be a well-dressed beast who takes advantage of people's danger.
Fortunately, he did not disappoint me in the end, and went out after a few clicks in the bedroom closet, and I opened a crack to see him go out with a blanket, apparently preparing to sleep in the living room tonight.
After he turned off the lights and door, I fumbled and took out my phone, looked at the time, it was already past eleven o'clock in the morning, and then put my phone under the pillow in case I needed it.
I didn't see him come in after that, and at first there was still a sound in the living room, but there was only silence in the back, and I finally couldn't stand the sleepiness that came on me, and slowly fell asleep.
The next day I was woken up by the alarm sound of my phone, and the moment I opened my eyes, my mind was not very clear, and the first feeling was to ask myself, what is this place, how did I end up here.
After looking around, I remembered that this was Li Muchi's bedroom, and I quickly looked at myself, everything was fine, and I was wearing all my clothes, except for the coat he took off and put on me last night.
My head hurt to death, I reached out and rubbed it for a while before I struggled to get up, I felt that my whole body was soft, I had no strength at all, and even my throat hurt, and I realized that I should have a cold.
Picking up my backpack, I quietly walked to the door, opened the bedroom door and looked into the living room, and saw that Li Muchi was indeed lying on the sofa covered with a thin blanket.
I couldn't help but feel sorry in my heart, if I hadn't pretended to be asleep last night, why would he be curled up on the couch now, but if it wasn't for last night's test, how could I see his attitude and character?
I couldn't be sure about this, so I couldn't rest assured that I would try to start a relationship with him, and I broke off my dirty thoughts about Jin Yebai, and let Song Qingya marry him with confidence.
I tiptoed to the back of the door, gently unscrewed the handle, and quietly left his house, and when I went downstairs, I sent him a WeChat message, telling him that I went back first, and thanked him for taking care of him last night.
He may have been woken up by WeChat, or he woke up after I left, and quickly replied to me, saying that you are welcome, asking me to forgive him for his self-determination and taking me back to his house.
My head hurt and panicked, although I received his reply on the way, but I didn't immediately reply to another one, and when I got home, I didn't even take off my clothes and fell to the bed, and then replied to him with three words: It's okay.
After replying to this, I shrunk into the quilt and fell asleep, and I don't know how long I slept and was woken up by the phone ringing, and I took it over in a daze to see, it was Jin Yebai calling, and the time on the mobile phone showed that it was already more than ten o'clock in the morning.
"Hey, Meng Lu, didn't you say that you would call me today to tell me about last night? I've been waiting for you all morning, when are you going to say?" Jin Yebai was released by me, and his tone was not very good.
"Hmm...... I haven't gotten up yet. "If he doesn't say it, I forget that I said such things, I must have been perfunctory in that situation last night, who thought he would take it seriously.
However, he has always believed my words, regardless of whether they are good or bad, and this time he will naturally take them seriously, but I am irresponsible and untrustworthy.
"What's wrong with you? Why is your voice so hoarse, are you sick?What did you do last night?" Jin Yebai immediately became anxious, and even the speed of speech increased a lot.
I raised my hand and touched my forehead, it was a little hot, it should be a fever, so I said angrily: "You don't care what we did last night, isn't it just a fever, who hasn't had a plague in his life, and I'm not a robot!"
"Don't you talk to me about it, do you feel that the fever is serious? I'll send you medicine right away, and if it doesn't work, I'll go to the hospital." "Jin Yebai was almost giving me an order.
I touched my forehead again, it didn't feel very hot, I should be fine after taking the antipyretics, and there was the cold medicine left by Li Sisi in the drawer of the bedside table, so I said to him: "It's okay, I have my own medicine, you better stay at home with your fiancée." ”
"Then first, I'll hang up. Jin Yebai hung up the phone with a snap, unusually crisp, it seems that he listened to my later sentence.
My fiancée is definitely more important than my friend, and if I expect him to take care of me, it will be too embarrassing, and I feel disgusting to think about it.
Although there is medicine in the drawer, I have no strength in my body, and I am so sleepy that I don't want to get up at all.
I won't delay it for a few days, but I'll be fine for a while, right? At least let me sleep enough, and have the strength to get up and boil water and take medicine, and then I will continue to sleep with peace of mind.
I don't know how long I slept , the phone rang again, I was awakened from my sleep, I really wanted to smash the phone, I took it and squinted my eyes and looked at it, fortunately this time it was Li Muchi calling, if it was still Jin Yebai, I would definitely not help but be angry at him.
"Meng Lu, do you want to come over for dinner at noon, I have something very important to tell you. Li Muchi asked.
"Forget about eating, if you have something to say on the phone, I'll listen. At this time, my ears were ringing and my nose was stuffy, and my words were very nasal.
Li Muchi naturally heard it immediately, and hurriedly asked me with concern, "Did you catch a cold from the wind last night, I'll come here, you wait for me." ”
I didn't expect him to be in such a hurry, I heard footsteps before the words fell, then the sound of the door closing and locking, and then he hung up the phone.
Regardless of whether it is a major or minor illness, it is already a very happy thing for someone to care, and it is even more difficult to ask for someone to take care of it by your side, and Li Muchi appeared at a very good time.
After hanging up the phone, I went back to sleep, Li Mu was late downstairs and called me and asked me to throw the key down, because he couldn't get in at the outside door, and it was impossible for me to climb down the fifth floor to open the door for him.
I got up and took out the key from my bag, stood at the window, and sure enough, I saw Li Muchi standing below, so I threw the key out, and then went back to the bed, I would rather have this bed without money now.
But this time I didn't fall asleep immediately, because Li Muchi opened the door and came in not long after closing my eyes, I heard footsteps approaching, and went straight to the bedroom.
When Li Muchi pushed the door in, I opened my eyes and sat up, watching him come over with a small plastic bag, which, if I guessed correctly, should be filled with medicine.
"I'm really sorry, I didn't let you go out last night, so you wouldn't have caught a cold. He walked over and reached out to my forehead, and then exhaled with relief, "It's okay, the temperature is not very high, it really scared me to death just now." ”
I leaned against the head of the bed weakly, pulled a smile and comforted him, "I'm fine, you don't have to worry, and I was going to go last night, it has nothing to do with you, you don't have to feel sorry." ”
"You lie down first, it will be more comfortable to lie down, I'll go boil some water for you, and you will be able to take medicine soon." He made a gesture to help me, and I quickly lay down on my own, his outstretched hand frozen in the void.
Awkwardly withdrawing his hand, he put the medicine on the bedside table and went out, I looked at his slightly lonely back, but I couldn't sleep, and my heart was very entangled.
He just said on the phone that he had something very important to say to me, was it about the next relationship between the two of us?
They used to be friends on the surface, but in fact they used each other, but now this relationship has obviously ended, and he is still so good to me, should he be officially dating me, right?
To be honest, although we have used each other before, I don't hate Li Muchi at all, if he really likes me, I can accept to try dating him.
If you are destined not to be with the person you like, then choose someone who likes you and does not hate you to spend the rest of your life with, so that at least you can have a better life.
Thinking about it like this, I won't be entangled, I will wait for Li Muchi to boil water and take medicine for me, and I will also wait for him to tell me the important words I mentioned before.
After a while he came in with water, and I sat up, holding the glass in both hands, and watched him read the instructions for the medicines intently, and then took them out and handed them to me.
When I was taking the medicine, there was a knock on the door outside, my heart tightened, and I immediately guessed who it was, except for Jin Yebai, there should be no second person.
Sure enough, after Li Muchi went to open the door, it was Jin Yebai who walked into the bedroom with him, and in addition to carrying medicine, he also had some fruits in his hands.
I still held a glass of water to warm my hands after taking the medicine, and I was a little happy in my heart, he finally put down Song Qingya to come to see me, but his tone was unhappy and asked, "Why are you here? Didn't you ask you not to come?"
"I'm just here to see, I'll be relieved if you're okay. Jin Yebai walked over and piled the things in his hand on the bedside table, and reached out to touch my forehead.
I turned my head away and said angrily: "I have already said that it is okay, besides, isn't there still Mu Chi here, I can't die, you are in such a hurry, don't you be angry if your fiancée knows, then you have to bother to explain." ”
The thick vinegar came out of my heart unconsciously, and it was brought directly to the words, and by the time I found out, it was already too late, I am afraid that even Li Muchi would have heard it.
Jin Yebai's hand was hung in the void by me, and he was stunned for a moment before he retracted it, "I know, I'll leave soon, and I won't disturb you." ”
Li Muchi was used as a shield by me, his face was a little not good, I looked at him apologetically, he smiled at me, and said it didn't matter.
Jin Yebai really left quickly, it was Li Muchi who sent him out, just like a man, but he waited for a while before coming in, I guess Jin Yebai must have told him something.
I thought so and asked, and he replied simply, "It's nothing, just let me take good care of you, and besides, he said that he won't have to go to work tomorrow, and he will give you a holiday." ”
Did Jin Yebai hand me over to Li Muchi?
I am very disappointed in my heart, he still chose Song Qingya after all, we missed it is missed, time will not be turned back for me, let me choose again.
I have been sleeping since he left, Li Muchi didn't seem to leave, and I woke up several times and saw him sitting on the edge of the bed with his head down and playing with his phone.
I really didn't have any major problems, the fever subsided not long after taking the medicine, and Li Muchi made me a few light side dishes in my apartment in the evening, and I also ate a small half bowl of rice, which I ate with him.
During the meal, he asked me, "Are you feeling better?" or I will take a day off tomorrow, I don't feel at ease if you are alone here. ”
I shook my head and smiled reluctantly: "It's okay, I'm a good person, it's good to sleep more if I'm uncomfortable, you better go to work, I guess I can go for a run when I get up tomorrow morning." ”
"Is it really okay?" Li Muchi still looked a little uneasy, "Then let's wait until tomorrow morning to see the situation, if it's okay, I'll go to work." ”
After dinner, he went to the kitchen to wash the dishes and chopsticks, and then cleaned the living room, and I sat on the sofa and watched him go in and out, naturally as if he was in his own home, and suddenly I felt that maybe it would be nice to have such a man by my side.
If he had expressed it to me at this time, I think I would have agreed at once, but unfortunately he did not say a word about our future relationship until after ten o'clock when he left my house.
After he left, I was ready to wash and go to sleep, but because I slept too much during the day, I couldn't sleep at night, so I sat on the bed and played with my phone.
When I woke up the next day, I felt like I was fine, but my voice was still a little hoarse, because it wasn't raining outside, so I really got up early to go for a run, and then met Li Muchi by the lake.
He was stunned for a moment, and he asked me in surprise, "Meng Lu, are you really okay?"
"yes, I just have a cold, I'm superhuman. I took off my earplugs, which I habitually wore and running, and smiled heartlessly at Li Muchi, "Let's go to breakfast later, and take me out to buy something by the way." ”
Now that we don't have a relationship of use, since we haven't become strangers, we will naturally become friends, and multiple friends are always much better than multiple enemies.
"Okay. I don't know if it was my cold that scared him too quickly, or if my attitude was too natural and scared him, he had a flattered expression.
After the run, we went to have breakfast together, then took his hitchhike to a large shopping mall, and asked him to come to my side for dinner in the evening, which was a thank you for taking care of me yesterday.
At noon, I cooked myself a bowl of egg noodles, and when I was eating, Jin Yebai called me and asked me if I was feeling better.
I told him that it was okay and that I wanted to go to work today, but since he gave me a holiday, I would take a day off and go to work tomorrow.
He told me not to be reluctant, if the illness is not completely cured, continue to rest, the company is not much now, give me a feeling of more than me, less than me.
This call was obviously to care about me, but in the end it broke up, I felt that he was influenced by Song Qingya and didn't want me to continue to work in his company, if this is really the case, then I will resign tomorrow.
