Chapter 7 – Shirt

 

　　Qi Xi’s breathing sounded like pine needles falling into the snow. It was obviously inaudible, but it felt like Fu Yanchuan was being scratched somewhere in his chest.

　　He subconsciously threw away Qi Xi’s hand and said seriously: “Don’t. No one has ever called me -“

 

　　Fu Yanchuan couldn’t say those words. Qi Xi’s hand hurt from being thrown away. He rubbed his arm while he glanced over, “Why are you working so hard?”

　　Fu Yanchuan didn’t speak, but he suddenly understood, “Are you embarrassed? He really never called you that?”

 

　　Fu Yanchuan still didn’t speak. So Qi Xi took a step back and said, “Then I won’t call you that anymore. What do you like? I can do it. I guarantee that you will be satisfied.”

 

　　”No need.”

 

　　Fu Yanchuan finally said, “You don’t need to call me those random names. No need.”

 

　　”Why?”

 

　　Qi Xi didn’t understand, “Didn’t you hire me so that I could try to imitate your first love to make you happy? Or do you want to do something that your first love doesn’t want to do with you? “

 

　　”What such thing?”

 

　　Fu Yanchuan didn’t want to talk to Qi Xi anymore, so he sat back and started to deal with his work. At the same time, he said business likely: “There’s nothing like this or that. Go and have your meal.”

 

　　”Okay, let’s talk about it after dinner.”

 

　　Qi Xi was a little bit disappointed. Fu Yanchuan added, “I’ll take you back after eating.”

　　After sleeping in a hotel for a night with a rash on his body, he still felt uncomfortable. When Fu Yanchuan mentioned that he’ll take him back, he immediately thought of a warm and comfortable big bed. The bed at Yanchuan’s house should be very comfortable, right?

 

　　He immediately spun away, then suddenly came back and took away the orange cat. He then said to Fu Yanchuan: “Come quickly, Brother Yan.”

 

　　Brother Yan?

 

　　Fu Yanchuan felt that Qi Xi was quite good at barking. He was stunned for a moment, and then unconsciously moved his gaze from the computer screen to look at Qi Xi.

 

　　Qi Xi ate very seriously as if he was going to write a paper after every bite. However, while he was eating, he suddenly remembered that Fu Yanchuan didn’t seem to have lunch either, and immediately turned around to look.

 

　　Fu Yanchuan instantly withdrew his gaze, but Qi Xi didn’t notice, thinking that he was immersed in work. He suddenly felt that Fu Yanchuan was working too hard and didn’t even bother to eat.

 

　　The tableware in the lunch box was for two people, so he thoughtfully served Fu Yanchuan one portion and sent it over.

 

　　Fu Yanchuan glanced at the meal placed next to him and said, “Take it away.”

 

　　Qi Xi asked him, “Aren’t you hungry?”

　　He looked at Qi Xi sternly, “The desk here is not the dining table.”

 

　　Qi Xi felt that Fu Yanchuan answered the question incorrectly, “I know, I’m asking if you are hungry.”

　　Fu Yanchuan looked unhappy and said, “The desk is not for eating.”

 

　　”You ask for a lot! If you don’t eat at the desk, just stop working. Aren’t you hungry?”

 

　　Fu Yanchuan looked up at Qi Xi, and anyone else would have already complied with his first sentence.

　　He was a little annoyed. Fu Yanchuan didn’t seem to understand what he meant. He held the lunch box and kept saying noisily: “If you don’t eat on time, you will easily get sick. I am your substitute. I will take care of you when you are sick, so don’t get sick.”

 

　　”You don’t want to take care of me?”

 

　　He blurted out, which surprised him. Qi Xi rolled his eyes and said firmly: “I don’t want you to get sick. This is not the point. Isn’t this what you like to eat?”

 

　　The meal was ordered at a restaurant where Fu Yanchuan often eats. Fu Yanchuan knew the taste very well. He didn’t move. Qi Xi held the lunch box in his hands and suddenly bent down and hit it with his head. Pressing his forehead, “Brother Yan, please eat.”

 

　　Fu Yanchuan’s brain seemed to be knocked unconscious by this. Before he could react, Qi Xi returned to the table with the lunch box, sat down, patted the empty chair and looked at him.

 

　　”Brother Yan.”

 

　　He stared at Qi Xi for a long time, and then passed. For him, eating was just a task to survive. In fact, he didn’t have so many requirements for taste, but the education he received since childhood gave him many habits and requirements.

　　But Qi Xi’s eating was completely different. It was the first time he saw someone eating so deliciously, which made him wonder if it was really that delicious, so he couldn’t help but try it.

 

　　”I’m finally full! Thank you, Brother Yan, for inviting me to dinner. I’ll treat you to a big dinner when I have money later.”

 

　　Qi Xi finally put down the bowl and chopsticks, leaned on the chair and rubbed his full belly. He then smiled at Fu Yanchuan, “Do you think it’s delicious too?”

 

　　Fu Yanchuan had already finished eating, stood up and said, “Let’s go.”

　　”Oh.” Qi Xi responded, stood up and packed away the lunch boxes on the table.

 

　　Fu Yanchuan asked: “What are you doing?”

 

　　”Throwing it away the garbage!”

 

　　”A janitor will come to clean it.”

 

　　Qi Xi said “oh” again, packed up the lunch boxes, placed them neatly on the table and said: “It’s easy to throw it away! Let’s go, Brother Yan.”

 

　　For Fu Yanchuan, this was a waste of time doing meaningless things. Qi Xi wasted his own time and his.

　　He pushed up Qi Xi’s suitcase and strode out of the door.

 

　　Qi Xi picked up the orange cat and trotted after him, “Brother Yan, wait for me.”

 

　　Everyone in the CEO’s office finally waited until Fu Yanchuan and Qi Xi came out. They all glanced at the corner of their eyes, wondering what Fu Yanchuan was thinking. It’s about the deal. If it’s 3,000 a month, it’s too stingy. The young and handsome male college student must have been deceived.

 

　　However, Qi Xi felt that he had gotten a huge bargain, especially when he got to Fu Yanchuan’s house. The apartment in the city center had one elevator for each apartment. Although it was not as good as a large flat-floor apartment, it was still considered a luxury residence. It was exactly what he wanted. He wants a big house.

 

　　Qi Xi glanced around when he entered the door. An older man came out, looked at him, looked at Fu Yanchuan and said, “Sir, everything has been packed.”

 

　　Fu Yanchuan gave Qi Xi’s suitcase. He asked Uncle Quan, “Take him to the room.”

 

　　Uncle Quan took him over and said to Qi Xi, “Please follow me.” 

 

       Qi Xi glanced at Fu Yanchuan first, and then went in with Uncle Quan, “Don’t I need to change my shoes? “

 

　　”Your slippers are in the shoe cabinet. If you want to change them, you can change them first.”

 

　　”Oh.”

 

　　Qi Xi was very polite. He went to someone else’s house to change his shoes. He immediately let go of his suitcase and went to get his slippers.

 

　　”Thank you.”

 

　　Qi Xi changed his shoes and finally walked inside with Uncle Quan, “My name is Qi Xi, uncle, what should I call you?”

 

　　”Just call me Uncle Quan.”

 

　　Qi Xi grabbed the orange cat’s paw and said, “Hello Uncle Quan! This is the Great Sage Qi Tian!”

 

　　Uncle Quan looked at Qi Xi strangely and said to Orange Cat, “Hello, the Great Sage Qi Tian.”

 

　　There are four rooms in the house, and one of them belongs to Fu Yanchuan. One of the bedrooms is a study, and the remaining two rooms are mostly empty. Qi Xi’s room and Fu Yanchuan’s are separated by the living room on both sides.

 

　　Uncle Quan took Qi Xi to the end of the corridor, “This is your room. Everything is ready. Your husband’s room is opposite. He is usually busy. If you–“

　　Before he finished speaking, he realized that Qi Xi’s attention had been completely attracted to the room, so he simply said: “Go in and take a look, and ask me if you have anything you don’t know.”

 

　　”Thank you, Uncle Quan!”

 

　　Qi Xi said his thanks and rushed in, throwing himself in. He got on the bed, rolled around and then got up and looked around.

 

　　This room was larger than his previous one. The bed was at least 2 meters wide, and there was a luxurious cat villa next to the window. It also had a bathroom and a dressing room, so it didn’t seem crowded.

 

　　He put the orange cat on the cat climbing frame and said, “Great Sage, this is your new home. Do you like it?”

 

　　The orange cat was a little wary when it came to a strange place. Instead of running around like Qi Xi, it jumped back into Qi Xi’s arms.

 

　　Uncle Quan told Qi Xi, “The cat litter and cat food are outside.”

　　Qi Xi looked over in surprise, “Did you buy it for the Great Sage?”

 

　　”It was prepared, yes.”

 

　　Qi Xi suddenly understood and was very grateful. “Brother Yan is such a good person!”

 

　　”You call me Mr. Fu Brother Yan?”

 

　　”What’s wrong? Can’t I call him that?”

 

　　”No.” Uncle Quan has been observing Qi Xi since he walked in. He met Qiao Ye once when Fu Yanchuan and Qiao Ye went on an exchange trip together. Fu Yanchuan took Qiao Ye home who had run away from home.

　　At that time, Qiao Ye called Fu Yanchuan “Brother Yan”. Not only did Qi Xi look like Qiao Ye, he even called him the same title.

 

　　”Qi Xi, see what else you need first, and then tell me.”

 

　　Uncle Quan said to Qi Xi and went back to the living room.

 

　　Fu Yanchuan stood motionless on the balcony outside the living room, looking at the road below in trance.

 

　　Uncle Quan went over and asked tentatively: “Sir, why did you bring that child back?”

　　Fu Yanchuan was silent. He advised: “If the chairman knew about it, he would definitely be angry. Don’t make yourself unhappy.”

 

　　”Uncle Quan. I won’t be happy if I don’t mess with him.”

 

　　”But -“

　　Fu Yanchuan interrupted: “He has no place to go for the time being, I just want to keep him here for a while.”

 

　　Uncle Quan wanted to say something else, but he didn’t know how to say it. In any case, he was sure that Fu Yanchuan thought much more clearly than he did, but it didn’t matter if he thought clearly, Fu Yanchuan was not a real robot.

 

　　Suddenly, Fu Yanchuan’s cell phone rang. He took it out and looked at it before hanging up. He said to Uncle Quan, “I’m going to the nursing home. You take good care of him.”

 

　　When Qi Xi came out of the room, Fu Yanchuan Chuan had already left, and Uncle Quan told him, “Sir, he probably won’t be back tonight. You can tell me what you want for dinner and I’ll have someone prepare it.”

 

　　”That’s it!” Qi Xi was lost for a second and didn’t even think about it. Knowing what he was missing, he immediately asked expectantly: “Can I eat whatever I want? Do I need to pay? I don’t have a lot of money.”

 

　　Uncle Quan replied: “No, you can eat whatever you want.”

 

　　”Can you also cook oden. I left without eating what I bought today. Brother Yan didn’t like it. Can I eat it if he’s not here?”

 

       “Yes”

 

　　Qi Xi immediately rushed over and hugged Uncle Quan. “Uncle! Don’t tell Brother Yan, or he will be angry again. This is our secret.”

 

　　Uncle Quan’s mouth twitched and he replied in a professional manner. “

 

　　Sure enough, Fu Yanchuan didn’t come back at night. Qi Xi ate oden alone as he wished, but it tasted much better than the one in the convenience store. He kept praising the chef the whole time, not knowing that the ingredients were just real ingredients.

 

　　After dinner, Uncle Quan and the chef left, leaving only him and Great Sage Qi Tian.

 

　　Qi Xi became the king of the mountain and visited all the rooms. He even secretly rolled twice on Fu Yanchuan’s bed, then got up and smoothed out his wrinkled sheets.

　　Then he had nothing to do and returned to the room out of boredom, forcing the orange cat to live in its new villa. After the cat’s desperate resistance, he finally stopped and picked up his phone just in time to receive a reply from the netizen who introduced him to manuscript.

 

　　[I don’t always get requests for manuscripts, and besides, I can’t accept all manuscripts. I have to work hard every time to get it for you. ]

　　[Are you short of money again recently? I’ll try my best to help you. It’s hard to come across an invitation to your level. If there is one, I’ll try my best to help you get it. ]

 

　　He was told by everyone that he was not smart since he was a child. He barely got into college without learning any other skills. The only way he could make money was by painting.

　　But he had never taken any professional 

 classes. He was self-taught and could not receive formal commissions. Fortunately, he met this netizen who was willing to help him get some cheap commissions. Although it was not much, he could still make money. He always cherished it.

 

　　Qi Xi quickly went back.

 

　　[Thank you! Sorry to bother you, only you can help me.]

 

　　After a while, the other party had time to reply to him.

 

　　[It’s good to know. It would be great if someone with your level of self-taught can receive an invitation to write. Don’t expect too much. I’ll see if I can get it first. ]

　　[If I hadn’t helped you, you might not have been able to get a manuscript in your life. You should also reflect on yourself and how to improve yourself. ]

 

　　[I understand, thank you Brother Zha. If you get an appointment, you must help me get it. I really have no money. ]

 

　　Qi Xi waited for a long time after replying, but the other party ignored him. He was a little disappointed. He put down his phone and lay down on the bed.

　　The soft mattress supported his body perfectly, and it was comfortable without sagging. He instantly forgot about his unhappiness and reached over to hug the orange cat sleeping on top of him.

 

　　”Great Sage, we don’t have to live on the streets anymore.”

 

　　”Meow!”

 

　　Qi Xi immediately turned over, “The bed was uncomfortable yesterday and I didn’t sleep well. Brother Yan is not here today. Let’s go to bed early!”

 

　　He said, already starting to take off his clothes. He took off my clothes all the way into the bathroom. After taking a shower, he went to open it and was stunned.

 

　　The suitcase contained his paintings, paints, new drawing paper and pens over the years, as well as a 20 kilogram bag of cat litter. He didn’t even bring any underwear.

 

　　Qi Xi blinked, what should he wear?

 

　　The private nursing home on the hillside was quiet and private. Fu Yanchuan was walking in a courtyard, pushing a woman in a wheelchair.

 

　　The woman is Fu Yanchuan’s mother, named Lin Xianjing. When Fu Yanchuan was 18 years old, she attempted suicide and went crazy.

 

　　”Wait a minute, Yan Yan.”

 

　　Fu Yanchuan stopped, and Lin Xianjing suddenly stood up from the wheelchair. The blanket covering her legs fell to the ground, and she jumped onto the pond under the streetlamp like a dance on tiptoes.

　　He quickly stepped forward and stopped her. Lin Xianjing screamed hysterically, “Are you going to kill me too? You hate me too and despise me! I am useless, I am useless. If I am not worthy of being your mother, what am I?” No way! Why don’t you kill me?!”

 

　　“That’s not a stage, that’s a pond.” He then warned him gently.

 

        “Yanyan, you have to listen to daddy and don’t disobey him. Only then will he be a good dad, you know?”

 

　　”It’s getting late. I’ll take you back to your room.”

 

　　Fu Yanchuan helped Lin Xianjing back to the wheelchair and pushed her back to the room. Lin Xianjing fell asleep quickly after taking the medicine. He stood by the bed for a while and then left.

 

　　On the way back, he received a call from Qi Xi.

 

　　”Brother Yan, I forgot to bring my clothes. Can I borrow your clothes?”

 

　　Fu Yanchuan paused for two seconds before answering: “Do you know where it is?”

 

　　”I visited your dressing room. What about your clothes? Why are they the same? Aren’t you wearing the same clothes every day?”

 

　　Fu Yanchuan interrupted, “Just take it yourself.”

 

　　”Oh,” Qi Xi asked hesitantly, “You’re really not coming back? Isn’t this your home? Where will you live if you don’t come back? You are alone -“

 

　　Fu Yanchuan hung up the phone directly, took out a chocolate candy from the storage box, peeled it into his mouth, and suddenly said to the driver after eating it : “Go back to Fuxi Road.”

 

　　Qi Xi searched in Fu Yanchuan’s dressing room for a long time, but couldn’t find anything he could wear. Finally, he found a silk shirt as pajamas, which could just cover the roots of his legs.

　　After he got dressed, he went to wash his clothes so that he could wear them tomorrow. He is then planning to go back to his dad’s to bring them all over.

 

　　Just when Qi Xi was putting the washed clothes in the dryer, Fu Yanchuan, who had promised not to come back, came back. He heard the sound and ran to the living room, and was startled when he saw Fu Yanchuan.

 

　　”Brother Yan, why are you back?”

 

　　Fu Yanchuan stared at Qi Xi with solemn eyebrows. He was wearing only a shirt, the sleeves were rolled up to his arms, and his two smooth long legs underneath were piercing straight into his eyes.

　　His chest rose and fell violently and he walked towards Qi Xi.

 

　　Qi Xi looked a little scared at Fu Yanchuan’s eyes and subconsciously stepped back, but Fu Yanchuan got in front of him and grabbed his wrist.

　　He stuttered and asked: “Brother Yan, what are you doing?”

 

　　Fu Yanchuan stared straight at Qi Xi’s face and said in a deep voice, “Why are you dressed like this and asking me?”
