Chapter 2 Neighbors

The next morning, when Wen Xu was awake, it was just after six o'clock. She suddenly realized that in the guest room, a girl was sleeping who was completely strange to her. She found that she didn't have time to take care of her diet and daily life, and she didn't even know how to develop a good relationship with her. She was tempted to throw the girl out of her house now, and then declare that everything was all right as if nothing had happened.

Wen Xu woke up and remembered to get up to make breakfast for Luo Xiqian. She struggled to get out of bed, and after a hard wash, she put on a coat and went into the kitchen to open the refrigerator door. Except for a few packets of instant noodles and drinks, there was nothing left in the fridge. The frozen dumplings had been eaten last week, and she hadn't had time to buy them yet.

Wen Xu had no choice but to change his clothes and walk out of the door with the key facing the sky.

It had been a long time since she had woken up so early, let alone gone out so early. Walking out of the door of the apartment, the cold winter wind was like a sharp knife, scraping her face mercilessly, for fear that there would be no blood marks.

After buying a few meat buns and fritters at the steamed bun shop in the community, she was worried that Luo Qianqian would not like to eat them, so she bought two servings of millet porridge at a porridge shop. Just as she was about to pay, she saw Shen Yang.

"Yang Yang. Wen Xu habitually said hello, and when she spoke, the heat ran out of her body, faintly forming a white mist.

"Good morning. Shen Yang didn't expect to see her here at all, and felt a little surprised.

"I'll buy you some breakfast for Sissi, you just came back from a run?" Wen Xu knew that Shen Yang had the habit of running in the morning, and she really didn't understand why she didn't have to sleep when she had a good time.

"Yes, I still have classes in the morning, so I'll go first. Shen Yang did not intend to end the conversation, but decided to end it.

"I can't come back at noon to get something for Sissi, can I let her come over to you?" Wen Xu knew that the junior high school where Shen Yang taught was not far from here, and he would definitely come back at noon to eat something and take a nap.

"Welcome. Shen Yang did not refuse, he liked this child very much.

When she got home, she found that Luo Xiqian had woken up. She stepped on a low stool and brushed her teeth in front of the mirror. After seeing Wen Xu come back, she quickly took a sip of water and spit out the toothpaste foam in her mouth. After repeating it a few times, she puts the toothbrush cup away. She looked at Wen Xu, pursed her lips, and did not speak.

"Sissi, you quickly wash your face and get ready for breakfast. Wen Xu looked at the toothpaste foam that still remained on the corner of her mouth, and urged, bringing the packaged breakfast into the kitchen.

Wen Xu opened the refrigerator door, took the milk out of the refrigerator, and poured it into the hot milk pot. Once it is hot, pour it into a cup that has just been washed with warm water.

After she put the prepared breakfast on the table, Luo Xiqian walked out.

"There are meat buns, fried dough sticks, milk, millet porridge, take what you want to eat, see if you are used to eating it. Just treat this place as your home, I'm your aunt, and I'll always be good to you. After Wen Xu sat down, he asked Luo Qianqian not to be so nervous. Having just entered an unfamiliar environment, it is understandable for Luo Qianqian to have these actions.

Luo Xiqian reached out and picked up a meat bun and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Don't be in such a hurry, no one will rob you. Wen Xu didn't expect this kid to eat so anxiously, and he was a little frightened.

Luo Qianqian's movements slowed down and she ate like a normal person.

After eating, Wen Xu cleaned up the plates on the table and tried to make herself relatable enough, "Sissi, my aunt is going to work now, and she will be back in the evening." When I go to work, you can watch TV, you can find some books to read. But if a stranger knocks on the door, you should never open the door. The instant noodles in the refrigerator must not be touched, those things are not nutritious. After 12 o'clock in the afternoon, you have to change your clothes and knock on your uncle's door next door, and he will open the door for you and make you lunch. You are obedient, don't be willful. When my aunt comes back in the evening, she will bring you something to eat. ”

"Auntie, when will I see my dad. Luo Qianqian is still worried about her father's affairs.

"At most, for a week, my aunt will definitely let you see Dad, okay? Wen Xu stroked her soft, loose hair, and if he didn't come, she might go straight to him with a knife.

At noon, Wen Xu typed the last word on the document and pressed the save button. She twisted her neck, which was about to stiffen, and felt that she was not fit to maintain a position for long. Just now, Shen Yang had already called her and told her that Luo Qianqian was already at his house. He has no classes in the afternoon and can stay at home to take care of her all the time. After Wen Xu heard this, he expressed his gratitude to Shen Yang.

"Ah Xu, do you want to go to the restaurant for dinner together?" his colleague He Zhen knocked on the door of Wen Xu's office and asked with a smile.

"Okay. Wen Xu's work was done, and she couldn't find any reason to refuse, so she agreed directly.

Wen Xu and He Zhen walked into the dining room together, and they found a place by the window to sit down. The winter sun was warm and reflected on their faces.

"I don't think you're in a good mood today. He Zhen flipped through the thick booklet on the dining table.

"My brother threw his baby to me. Wen Xu thought of the child and felt an abnormal headache.

"When did your brother's workaholic have a child, didn't he get divorced a long time ago, happy to be a father?" He Zhen was very curious, in her impression, Wen Xu's brother Wen Che has always been an out-and-out workaholic, if it weren't for his short marriage, she would almost feel that Wen Xu should not be interested in women.

"What I found out after the divorce is simply an idol drama, and there is a lot of blood!" Wen Xu commented mercilessly, she is not a virgin, and she can also treat the child who appeared out of thin air as her own.

"Don't talk about him, what do you want to eat?" He Zhen was indeed a little hungry and didn't want to talk about unhappy topics.

"I want a black pepper beef noodle, a cup of black coffee, and double the syrup. Wen Su yawned and continued. She woke up too early today and was severely sleep-deprived.

"It's been a long time since you've been in love. He Zhen is still quite concerned about his friend's lifelong events.

"I remember the last time I was in a relationship was when I was a student. Wen Xu thought about it, and it was indeed the case. She is now in a period of burnout, whether it is work or love, she has no interest in the slightest. Mom has been forcing her to go on a blind date, and she has been using her busy work as an excuse to shirk the past. To marry reality or to marry love, she would rather choose the latter.

Since her promotion, she has not had much free time at all. She has time to go shopping, eat and watch movies with He Zhen, talk on the phone with former college classmates, travel abroad for photography, and even call Wen Che to talk to him. But she never intended to waste her time getting to know a man again. How many things did it take for two people to get married? She didn't know, she felt scared, and she enjoyed life the same.

"I also want to introduce my cousin to you, he is now in a gap period, and you are not too young, don't think about anything all day long

Love, life is not an idol drama, and it is not good to have children when you are old. As a person who has come over, He Zhen seems to have a lot of say, and she has just turned 30 and already has a daughter who has just turned one year old. When her daughter was born, she was really in a hurry. She never understood why she cried, didn't know why she laughed, and to her, her daughter was like an alien who couldn't speak. When the nurse handed the child into her hands, she still wondered how she could have given birth to such an ugly baby.

"Did my mother let you say that?" Wen Xu's tone became cold, and she focused her gaze on He Zhen's delicate face, which was not very friendly. Her hostility is not towards He Zhen, but towards her mother. She was already heartbroken about her marriage, and even wanted to let her colleagues and friends around her force her to marry with her. She didn't want He Zhen to be an accomplice.

She no longer has any requirements for her future son-in-law, as long as it is a living male.

"Don't say this, waiter, order. He Zhen naturally knew that Wen Xu's mood was a little wrong, so she raised her hand and beckoned the waiter.

After eating noodles, Wen Xu went into the bathroom to make up for his lipstick and put his energy back on work.

The company had some urgent matters to deal with, and when Wen Xu parked the car in the garage, his mobile phone had already shown eight o'clock. She had already greeted Shen Yang and asked him to help take care of Luo Qianqian. After the phone call, she was a little uneasy, she never liked to trouble others so often, but she couldn't do these things.

She felt a little frustrated, and kept complaining in her heart about her unreliable brother.

Wen Xu knocked on the door next door, and after a few breaths, Shen Yang opened the door for her. She was a little glad that he didn't need to study at night today, and had enough time to give Luo Qianqian the company she deserved.

"Yang Yang," Wen Xu greeted Shen Yang, his smile as bright as a spring breeze.

"Why is it so late today?" Shen Yang turned sideways and let her in.

"Overtime. Wen Xu felt extremely tired, and now she just wanted to lie on her two-meter-wide bed, "Where's Sissi?

As soon as she walked through the entrance, she saw Luo Qianqian lying on the coffee table drawing. When Luo Qianqian saw her, she put down the crayon and reluctantly called, "Auntie." ”

Only then did Wen Xu realize that Luo Qianqian's voice was immature and pleasant, like a little yellow bird.

"We've already had dinner, have you eaten?" Shen Yang asked as he closed the door.

"Not yet, when you're busy with work, you don't have any concept of time. Wen Xu smiled wryly, and the cruel reality told her that she was not suitable to take care of children.

"Do you want to eat noodles?" Shen Yang proposed.

"Well, good. Wen Xu didn't refuse well, so he agreed.

After the noodles were cooked, Wen Xu sat at the table and ate the noodles. To be honest, Shen Yang's cooking skills are very good, in addition to the noodles are very chewy, the noodle soup is also very delicious. Wen Xu doesn't know how to cook, and the things she cooks are just barely enough to eat, and compared to Shen Yang, the things she cooks are barely pig food.

After she drank the last mouthful of soup in the bowl, she found that Shen Yang was sitting next to her and looking at her.

"You need to arrange for Sissi to attend school as soon as possible, given your family's situation, it would be better for her to go to boarding school. Shen Yang said, extremely serious.

"I know, it's just that I think she's too small. Wen Xu is still a little reluctant, Luo Qianqian is too young, she should have grown up in a loving environment, not like this, being thrown around like a ball by adults. She didn't have time to take care of the child, and although she didn't want to admit that letting her go to boarding school was the best option.

Shen Yang was silent, indeed, he shouldn't be too involved in Wen Xu's family affairs. He moved his Adam's apple and said, "I have a friend who is the director of admissions at Zhangwan Elementary School, and I can help you contact him if you need it." ”

"Thank you. Wen Xu's tone was sincere.
