In fact, when Cheng Qing hurriedly rushed home with the dinner he had just bought, he was shocked at the first sight he saw when he entered the house.

Because Cheng Xi and Wei Yibai in front of them were cleaning the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen, and on the dining table was a bowl of egg fried rice that was still steaming.

"I ...... I am back. ”

Although Cheng Qing thought that he would definitely welcome his sister's complaints and inquiries later because he didn't answer the phone, he still said hello tentatively.

"Brother, you're back! Is this the dinner you brought back? Cheng Xi has finished cleaning the dishes and chopsticks, took out a napkin and wiped his hands, and then came out to ask.

"Hmm...... yes, it's a little late, and there are two freshly heated lunches in it. ”

Cheng Qing said hesitantly.

"If my brother hadn't received the call, he wouldn't have brought another dinner home." Cheng Xi didn't ask Cheng Qing why he came back late, but carefully took the bag in Cheng Qing's hand and carried it to the kitchen.

"That...... I'm a little late today, so I'm sorry I didn't bring you your dinner at the same time as I got home......"

After Cheng Qing changed her shoes, she followed Cheng Xi to the kitchen, feeling a little weak, so she decided to take the initiative to confess the situation halfway.

"Sister Yibai told me," Cheng Xi's face was a little heavy at this time, "Actually, I also want to know, Dean Qi, and the people in the welfare home...... My brother came back late, and it must have been because he was going to visit this matter, so he ...... Xiaoxi supports you. ”

"I also support you, Cheng Qingjun."

At this time, Wei Yibai also turned around to look at Cheng Qing from her busyness, her long hair was temporarily tied into a ponytail by her because of the work of washing dishes and chopsticks at this time, adding a few more capable and serious, as well as cuteness.

"But I'm sorry, after all, I broke the contract first, and it's been too long since the agreed time." Cheng Qing looked at the clock at home and said with a wry smile.

"Also, did you cook the egg fried rice yourself?" Cheng Qing turned her eyes to the bowl of egg fried rice on the table with excellent color and aroma and asked.

"Yes, because I didn't want to wait any longer for takeout, I saw that I still had some rice and a few eggs at home, so I simply made egg fried rice," Wei Yibai didn't seem to be confident in the taste of the rice he cooked, and then said, "That...... specially left a bowl for Cheng Qingjun, I don't know what you think of the taste...... If Cheng Qingjun wants to eat the lunch box that he just brought back, it would be fine to add a hot box lunch......"

"No, those two boxed lunches were originally for you, but it just so happens that I haven't eaten dinner yet, so thank you." Cheng Qing had no choice but to make up a white lie that she hadn't eaten dinner.

"Then I'll help you get the cutlery." Wei Yibai saw that Cheng Qing chose her egg fried rice, so she searched in the kitchen, and then handed a set of utensils to Cheng Qing.

Cheng Qing pulled out the stool next to the dining table, sat down and picked up a spoon. Scoop up a spoonful of fried rice and put it in your mouth to taste slowly.

"Yes, it's delicious." Cheng Qing reminisced a little, nodded, and affirmed Wei Yibai's cooking skills. After Wei Yibai heard Cheng Qing's appreciation, he nodded and said, "Then you can send all the tableware to the kitchen after eating, and I will help clean it together by the way." ”

"I'll do it myself, it's enough to trouble you if you cook, so I'll leave the dishes to me." Cheng Qing hurriedly waved her hand, signaling that she could do a good job of washing dishes.

"It's also an important part of integrating into a new family."

Wei Yibai smiled, then walked into the living room, and watched the current news while waiting for Cheng Qing to finish eating.

"Have you become the mistress of this house?" Cheng Qing looked at Wei Yibai, who was watching the news program very seriously, and quipped.

"If I were the hostess, you wouldn't dare to openly violate the agreed time, even if you have something to investigate now."

Wei Yibai joked to Cheng Qing in reverse.

Cheng Qing was speechless for a while, and could only endure the obvious satiety that she had just eaten instant noodles, and continued to eat the egg fried rice in front of her, and no longer replied.

"According to her current appearance, it seems that she can integrate into our family, then I will be able to successfully complete my mother's commission, and I will be completely relieved."

While thinking about this, Cheng Qing's eyes stayed on Wei Yibai, who was engrossed in the news. It wasn't until Wei Yibai seemed to feel the gaze and turned his head slightly to look at him with doubts that Cheng Qing looked away and continued to fight with the egg fried rice in front of him.

"If I hadn't eaten that bucket of instant noodles that night, I guess I'd want to try another bowl of egg fried rice...... The last time I had such a delicious egg fried rice was the last time my mother came home......"

Cheng Qing couldn't help but feel a little helpless, her mother was on a business trip abroad this time, and she didn't know how long it would take to go home for a short time.

"Looks like I can integrate into the family smoothly......"

Cheng Qing put her mind at ease and began to spend this dinner time leisurely.

Even if it was so, Cheng Qing still cleaned the dishes by herself after eating, because Wei Yibai was a guest, and Cheng Qing was embarrassed to trouble her again.

By the way, Cheng Qing waited for the temperature of the two heated lunches to cool down, and then put them in the refrigerator for breakfast tomorrow morning.

After sitting down and resting for a while, because the time was not early, Cheng Xi, Cheng Qing, and Wei Yibai said hello and went to sleep by themselves.

Because Cheng Xi has just returned to Dongdu after summer camp, she also has some classmates who are waiting for her to come back and want to meet her and discuss how to spend this holiday.

And tomorrow is the day of the first meeting after the summer camp, so Cheng Xi slept relatively early today. The goal is to be in a better state of mind tomorrow to meet up with her friends and talk about the holidays.

"Then I'm not sitting in the living room watching TV for a while, I just came back from abroad and I still have some things to deal with. Can I borrow the bathroom first, Cheng Qingjun? ”

Wei Yibai looked at Cheng Qing, who was sitting not far away and watching the current affairs news with her, and asked.

"Oh...... Of course you can......"

First of all, because I went to bed late last night and woke up early today, I was already lacking sleep. Even on the way back from the pick-up, he closed his eyes for a while, but later because Wei Yibai leaned on his shoulder, he didn't have enough rest on the way back. At this time, Cheng Qing was still a little sleepy.

In addition, Cheng Qing is not very interested in programs such as current affairs news, so his mental state is not very good at present. It was watched entirely for the sake of accompaniment.

Wei Yibai also seemed to have insight into this, so he decided to go to the bathroom to take a bath first, so that Cheng Qing didn't need to accompany him so reluctantly.

"Will you come back to watch the TV show later?"

After Cheng Qing heard someone speak, her consciousness cleared up a little and asked Wei Yibai, who got up to leave.

"No need, I'll go straight back to my room in a moment."

After Wei Yibai finished answering, he entered the bathroom.

Cheng Qing shook her head and tried to make herself more sober, and then switched to a TV station that was broadcasting a variety show to hedge the boredom brought to her by the series of news reports just now.

By the way, Cheng Qing took out her mobile phone and looked through the chat software to see if there was any noteworthy news.

As Cheng Qing expected, no one would be leisurely enough to send him a message. Then Cheng Qing looked at her friend's dynamics, and only saw Xu Huichen's daily posts sharing his riding.

"It's really a living map of the East City, and you can go out to ride in this kind of weather, and you are really an avid cycling enthusiast."

After giving Xu Huichen a thumbs up, Cheng Qing cut out the chat software. He looked at the little battery he had left on his phone and was about to go to his room to get his charger when he heard the sound of water rattling.

Cheng Qing was confused just now, in fact, he only heard Wei Yibai ask if something was okay or something. For this new guest, Cheng Qing naturally agreed to whatever he asked. And he didn't know that Wei Yibai was going to take a bath until the sound of water in the bathroom sounded.

Cheng Qing couldn't help but have some associations in his mind, he immediately patted himself, let himself return to normal thinking, and waited for Wei Yibai to finish bathing.

"That's what I was asking about......

Cheng Qing, who realized it later, reacted and said.

Focusing on the variety show in front of her, which was not particularly interesting, Cheng Qing decided to kill time slowly like this.

It didn't take long for the sound of the water to stop. Cheng Qing also decided to prepare her own change of clothes and rest early after taking a bath.

However, after some time, there was no movement in the bathroom. After Cheng Qing picked up the remote control and turned off the TV, she was about to go to her room to get her clothes and come down, when Wei Yibai's faint voice came.

Cheng ...... Cheng Qingjun, can you help me get it in my room...... Clothes? ”

Cheng Qing walked outside the bathroom door and listened carefully, only after knowing what Wei Yibai said. After agreeing immediately, he went upstairs and walked to the door of Wei Yibai's room.

The key is still inserted in the lock hole in front of the door, unchanged. Cheng Qing gently pressed the doorknob and pushed the unlocked door open.

On the bed, a neatly folded set of pajamas sits still. After Cheng Qing took it, just as he was about to leave the room, something in front of the computer desk attracted his attention.

It was a comic, and although it was only a half-finished product, there were many details that had not yet been perfected, but the overall painting was very delicate, reflecting the high level of the artist.

It doesn't look like the characters appear in the comics that are already on the market, which means that the characters on this sketch are not copied.

Is it a new character? Probably not, this seems somewhat familiar...... Could it be that I once browsed some comics on the Internet, but I just didn't write them down?

Because Cheng Qing doesn't like to travel outside, he is almost considered a senior house. The entire bookcase in his room is full of the most classic light novels and corresponding adaptations, so the number of comics he has read is also very large.

Maybe it's some serialized comics on the Internet.,There's no physical book version.,I haven't read it.。

Cheng Qing only reads physical books when she reads comics, and comic websites on the Internet only watch them occasionally. Generally, if there is a comic that interests her, Cheng Qing will put it in her favorites, and whenever a physical version of a new comic is sold at a specific time, she will buy it according to the name in the collection.

Cheng Qing thought about it carefully in her mind, and only felt that the sense of familiarity was getting stronger and stronger, but she still had no idea about this sketch.

Although the comics have not yet materialized, with this exquisite style of painting...... So is Wei Yibai a cartoonist? Do you have a dedicated comic book creation?

Cheng Qing thought of this, and couldn't help but praise in her heart.

But Cheng Qing didn't go in to continue to observe, so she took the clothes Wei Yibai needed and left her room. For a creator, the results of his creation must be deliberately peeked at or manipulated by others without permission, and he must be very angry.

Quickly walked to the door of the bathroom, knocked lightly twice, and signaled to Wei Yibai inside that he had already taken his clothes and came down.

The door to the bathroom in Cheng Qing's home is not opened by sliding and sliding. If you want to open and close the door, just put your hand against the groove in the door and slide it left and right.

Probably because Wei Yibai didn't pay attention, after she heard Cheng Qing's knock on the door, she casually slid the door open to the right in the bathroom. However, the distance where the door slid open was a little far, and the scene in the bathroom was clearly seen by Cheng Qing.

Fortunately, Wei Yibai is still wearing a bath towel on his body, covering part of the front of his body. But the exposed snow-white skin and its perfect body shape made Cheng Qing's nose suddenly hot.

"Ah...... Cheng Qingjun? ……”

Wei Yibai obviously didn't expect that his random action would cause such a scene.

After Cheng Qing reacted, his eyes widened in panic, put the clothes in Wei Yibai's hand, pinched his nose and immediately rushed out of the door.

Wei Yibai looked at Cheng Qing's figure leaving in a hurry, and couldn't help but blush on his face.

Untie the towel and fold it neatly and put it back in place. Wei Yibai changed his clothes, turned off the lights in the bathroom, turned on the exhaust fan and the window for ventilation, and then slowly walked towards the living room.

And Cheng Qing in the living room may not have seen such a scene so far. As if he hadn't come to his senses, his eyes were a little careless and casually glanced around, and there were two balls of napkins blocked in his nose and mouth, looking rather embarrassed.

"Sorry...... Just now...... When I entered the bathroom, I was rude. Cheng Qing looked up at Wei Yibai who came out of the bathroom, and said intermittently.

"I'm not angry."

"For ...... Why? ”

"I'm sorry, because I'm used to living at home with my sister, so when it's just me and her, I'm always a little bit arrogant and casual. Usually I would ask my sister to help me get a change of clothes like this...... Now that I have arrived at my new home, I still have some bad habits that I still haven't been able to change. And just now, without taking into account Cheng Qingjun's feelings outside the door, he casually slid the door open, which is also my inconsiderate ......"

Wei Yibai answered Cheng Qing's doubts.

"Yes...... Is that so? Cheng Qing still couldn't relieve her embarrassment at this time.

"Cheng Qingjun, I still have to blow my hair now, otherwise I will easily catch a cold with wet hair in an air-conditioned room with a low temperature in summer."

"The hair dryer is also in the bathroom, remember to wipe the water on your hands and plug it in." Cheng Qing nodded, then leaned back on the sofa.

After listening to the sound of the "woo" hair dryer in the bathroom, Cheng Qing quickly went to her room to get her change of clothes to prevent the embarrassing scene just now from happening again.

After a while, Wei Yibai walked out of the bathroom. pointed upstairs and said to Cheng Qing, "Then Cheng Qingjun, I'll go back to my room to rest first." ”

"Well, good night."

"Good night, Cheng Qingjun."

After Cheng Qing entered the bathroom, after filling the bathtub with water, she lay quietly in it, only her head exposed, looking up at the ceiling.

Thinking back on everything that happened today, it feels like this is the busiest day since the beginning of his summer vacation.

I guess from tomorrow, I won't be so tired, and I still have to spend every day leisurely as usual.

Cheng Qing thought so, and then waited until the temperature of the water in the bathtub gradually became a little cold, and then stood up. After drying off the water, change your clothes, wait for the heat to dissipate in the bathroom, and turn off the exhaust fan.

Walk around the living room for a while, turn off the air conditioner and lights. After checking the switches of all the electrical appliances again, I walked upstairs with confidence.

When Cheng Qing passed by Wei Yibai's room, he could clearly see in the home where all the lights were turned off, and the light in the door still shone through the crack in the door.

"Although I said that I was resting when I went back to the room, I was still busy...... Cheng Qing thought to herself, it should be for the comic on the table.

Forget it, I can't ask too much about her, after all, it's ...... I've just met.

Cheng Qing didn't stay any longer and went straight back to her room.

After turning on the light, looking at the comics and light novels on the bookshelves in the room, Cheng Qing did not choose to take one and watch it. He walked to the computer desk in his room, pulled out a stool and sat down, pressed the power switch on the computer, and sat quietly waiting for the computer to turn on.

By the way, Cheng Qing also took out the remote control and turned on the air conditioner in her room. to relieve the sweltering heat of summer nights.

After the computer started, Cheng Qing dragged the mouse and clicked the document icon on the desktop.

After the document was opened, Cheng Qing's own novel that he had been updating was presented. It's just that Cheng Qing didn't send the novel to any website, but only stored it on his computer.

After hesitating in front of the keyboard for a long time, the stuffiness in the room still made Cheng Qing a little irritable, making Cheng Qing uneasy, and she didn't know how to continue to update the content of the novel.

After a long time, after the temperature in the room cooled down, Cheng Qing calmed down and began the process of typing.

"Today, I met a shadow in my life that I can't forget."

However, Cheng Qing didn't know how to write next. The content that this cookie-cutter chapter begins leads to is a routine that people have seen many times. If it is put out repeatedly, even if the reader can barely read it, Cheng Qing, as the author, will not be able to accept it.

Fingers tapped lightly on the table, still without any inspiration. Cheng Qing pressed Backspace Jian many times in a row, and completely cleared the sentence he had just typed out directly.

According to Cheng Qing's philosophy, you must not force yourself to force yourself to type out boring words to fill in the content when you have no writing inspiration. This will only make the later plot completely messed up and deviate from the basic line of the article.

"Hoo ......"

Cheng Qing took a long breath, and could only reluctantly close the document page, waiting until the next time when there was creative inspiration.

After pressing the shutdown button, Cheng Qing heard the familiar sound of the computer shutting down and finished playing, unplugged the battery plug of the laptop, closed the notebook and put it aside neatly.

It seems that there is nothing left to worry about today.

Cheng Qing thought for a while and decided to relax, so she walked to the window and began to look out through the window. Because Cheng Qing's family lives on a relatively high floor, if you look out from the window, you can see the night view of the city.

Even though it's late at night, the lights in the city are still bright. There are a few cars on the road, and the night markets in the streets and alleys have long since opened, adding a touch to the city's late nights that are rarely seen in the daytime.

"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've seen this city like this." Cheng Qing muttered to herself.

Cheng Qing continued to look into the distance, and she didn't know how much time had passed. It wasn't until he accidentally saw the city's landmark, the Shangjing Tower, go out of the light exhibition, that he regained his sense of time.

In this way, it seems that the investment in Shangjing Tower has only been completed in recent years......

Cheng Qing stopped watching the night view, lay back on the bed, and then began to think about the landmark building of the Eastern City, that is, the Shangjing Tower that he saw just now.

A long time ago, the landmark building of the eastern metropolis should have been the coastal Xinjiang Pavilion. At that time, the concept of the building was to make use of the coastal characteristics of the eastern city to attract more tourists and investors. The Xinjiang Group, which invested in the construction, has also become a pioneer in the development of enterprises in the eastern metropolis.

However, with the acceleration of the development of the eastern metropolis, it is still difficult for the new Jiangkaku to keep up with the pace of the times, even with its unique coastal advantages and the development of many updates and surrounding functions. The passenger flow has also decreased slightly compared to when it was first built.

Until recent years, the trend of declining passenger traffic in Xinjiang Pavilion has become more obvious. And the cause of all this is the completion of a new building, that is, the Shangjing Tower.

Cheng Qing once watched some of the materials left by his father in the study, including a detailed introduction to Shangjing Tower. Cheng Qing is not very clear about why his father has these introductions. I only remember that in the year when the Shangjing Tower was built, my father seemed to be invited to the tower to attend the opening ceremony as a guest.

According to the introduction of the information I read at the time, Shangjing Tower was jointly invested and built by two famous consortia in the city. And the two major groups in this construction are not the same enterprises as they were back then.

After the completion of the construction of the Shangjing Tower, it won the honor of being the tallest building in the country. From any angle in the eastern metropolis, you can see the tall figure of the Kamigyo Tower. In addition to the regular opening during the day, there is a regular illumination exhibition every night.

This also made Shangjing Tower famous, and attracted a lot of investment and tourists for a while, making Dongdu's position as a city in China more stable. Compared with the previous Xinjiang Pavilion, the scale of this construction is more grand, and the effect is more obvious.

As a result, the Kamigyo Tower has replaced the impression of Xinjiangkaku in people's minds and has become a landmark building in the eastern city.

However, tonight seems to be due to a special event at the Kamikyo Tower, and the light exhibition lasts until late at night, which is never done before.

By the way, if you have time, if Wei Yibai needs to take a stroll around the eastern city, Shangjing Tower may be the best place to visit. The scenery of the eastern capital from the top down is really beautiful.

However, the ticket to enter the Shangjing Tower sightseeing has already stumped a group of people first. There will be a long queue to buy tickets at the scene, and the network will be full so that the website crashes and cannot be entered.

Cheng Qing was fortunate enough to be taken out to visit Shangjing Pagoda once after her mother returned from a business trip. The structure of the entire tower is exquisite, with all the high-end facilities in the tower, which fully reflects the high-end technology of the architect and the scale of investment. Moreover, even if the passenger flow in the tower is endless, and the tourists who come to visit are crowded, they can still become orderly under the effective management of the staff in the tower.

This experience made Cheng Qing also deeply impressed by this building.

"After thinking about it like this, I can't sleep even more, and my mind is now full of the magnificent scenery of Shangjing Tower." After lying in bed for a long time, Cheng Qing found that the sleepiness she had when she was watching TV just now was long gone.

Cheng Qing looked at the ceiling boredly, and after a long time, she picked up the mobile phone that was charging at the bedside and took a look.

"It's already so late, it's half past two in the morning...... Cheng Qing was also surprised by the time at this time, but she couldn't fall asleep.

"No way, let's get up and take a look." Cheng Qing thought to herself, since she couldn't sleep, she didn't have to lie in bed and continue to kill time.

Although Cheng Qing usually slept late, she didn't stay up until this time. Because Cheng Qing is usually busy catching up with the progress of her novels, but unfortunately today is really unfortunate, and there is no inspiration at all. I thought I could fall asleep early and have a good rest, but I was stunned to get up to this point.

"I'm really unlucky." After fumbling left and right, Cheng Qing found the light switch in the room. After a light press, there was a "click" sound, and the lights immediately filled the entire room.

Stimulated by the sudden bright light, Cheng Qing found it difficult to open her eyes that had been in the dark for a long time. After a while to get used to it, Cheng Qing stood up against the wall, opened the door of the room and walked out.

A heat wave came to her face instantly, Cheng Qing didn't care, but prepared to go downstairs to the kitchen to get some ice water to quench her thirst.

Just as Cheng Qing was about to go downstairs, he saw the first one in the corridor, that is, Wei Yibai's room.

Exactly like the scene he accidentally saw just now, the light in Wei Yibai's room still seemed to be turned on, and the light still appeared through the crack in the door, making it even brighter in the dark.

"It's so late...... It seems that there is no one who sleeps, and I am not alone......" Cheng Qing sighed in her heart Wei Yibai's hard work, and then slowly walked downstairs.

Taking out a bottle of ice water, Cheng Qing twisted the cap of the bottle and slowly drank two sips, moistening his dry throat. Then he took out another bottle of iced coffee and took it upstairs with him.

If she still needs to stay up late, help her get a bottle of coffee, because she has also spent more than ten hours on the plane, and if she is tired, she is far more than me.

Cheng Qing walked back to the door of Wei Yibai's room. In order not to disturb some of the work she might be doing, Cheng Qing had already tried to use the smallest movement to slowly open the door of the room where Wei Yibai was.

After the door was opened, Cheng Qing was suddenly surprised because of the scene in front of her.

The doorway had become cluttered, with many discarded drawings falling to the ground. Some are discarded directly, and some are crumpled and thrown aside. Even though many of them are repeated in the same scene, the demeanor and charm of the characters and backgrounds are completely different. They are all very beautiful in the eyes of people, but they are all abandoned by the painters.

Even if Cheng Qing is a layman, seeing this scene also understands the original artist's work spirit of excellence. This kind of conscientious and responsible work attitude really made Cheng Qing, who has always adhered to a lazy attitude, tremble. At the same time, Cheng Qing's heart was filled with a sense of distress.

At this time, the original artist, that is, Wei Yibai, had already fallen asleep on the table at the table because of the previous long trip and the current extremely strong work intensity.

The headlights in the room weren't turned off, and neither was the lamp at the desk. The white light reflected Wei Yibai's sleeping face, which made Cheng Qing's heart tremble.

Cheng Qing put aside the ice water and coffee in his hand, and quietly picked up a quilt from Wei Yibai's bed. approached Wei Yibai's side and slowly covered her without disturbing her.

Equally quietly turned off the large lights in the room. At this time, Wei Yibai can't be picked up and put on the bed, first, there may be movement to make Wei Yibai wake up, and second, if it is detected, there may be some unnecessary misunderstandings.

So at this time, Cheng Qing decided to turn off the desk lamp with high light intensity, and then could only let Wei Yibai sleep in front of the computer desk aggrievedly on the first day of entering this home.

What Cheng Qing didn't expect was that just as Cheng Qing put his hand on the switch of the table lamp, Wei Yibai suddenly stretched out his hand and whispered two words.

Even though the sound is very small, in a quiet room where there is no noise at all, Cheng Qing can still hear it clearly:

"Don't go."
