Silver Leaf Whale Chapter 21

Not even in spring…

Chapter 21·Not even spring…

Qi Zhixuan felt that he had been dreaming all night. Although he was a little tired, he saw his parents in the dream and felt very satisfied, so he was in good spirits today.

On the other hand, Pang Whale baked pancakes all night yesterday, and it was dawn soon. After playing with his mobile phone for a while, he really couldn’t sleep, so he got up and made breakfast. He came over with two bowls of noodles, and his eyes were all black and blue.

Qi Zhixuan was startled by the way he was sucking all his energy away. “What’s wrong with you? Is it particularly uncomfortable to sleep on the sofa? How about you sleep on the bed today? If that doesn’t work, I’ll open a hotel nearby for you?”

Pang Whale pulled up his chair and sat down, waving his hand, “No, I played some games last night, it’s fine.”

In the end, Pang Jing stayed at home to catch up on his sleep under Qi Zhixuan’s order. It was now a holiday. Although the part-time girl had gone home, the students were almost gone. He was completely busy by himself, and he didn’t need Pang Jing.

He thought that today would be a busy day at work, but as soon as he arrived at the door of the store, Qi Zhixuan saw an unexpected person.

“Boss Qi, long time no see.”

It was Jiang Xianfan. After finishing the painting last time, Jiang Xianfan gave him a painting and proposed asking him to be a company consultant. After he declined politely, the two rarely met.Occasionally, Jiang Xianfan would introduce business through his assistant, but he never expected that he would come to the store in person.

“Boss Jiang, long time no see, come in quickly. I haven’t thanked you enough for introducing me to many businesses before.” Qi Zhixuan opened the door and invited people inside.

But Jiang Xianfan showed no intention of sitting down after entering the door. He just stood and wandered at the door, looking a little unnatural.

“What’s wrong, Boss Jiang?” Qi Zhixuan was a little confused when he didn’t come in for a while.

Jiang Xianfan hesitated for a long time and finally said: “Um…Boss Qi, I want to ask…why isn’t Chen Runsong in the store?”

Qi Zhixuan was unexpectedly asked this question, “Huh? Songsong and the others are on holiday. It’s almost the Chinese New Year, isn’t it? His sister is on holiday and he has gone out of business.”

Jiang Xianfan’s eyes were a little dazed, and he nodded slightly and said: “Oh, that’s it… okay… I understand…”

“Do you have anything to do with him? How about I give him a call?” Qi Zhixuan said as he was about to take out his cell phone, but was stopped by Jiang Xianfan, “No… no, thank you.” He said goodbye hastily, turned around and left.

Qi Zhixuan tilted his head and looked at his back, shaking his head strangely.

Since the last car accident, Jiang Xianfan has never seen Chen Runsong again. The people he used to see every week and eat exclusive cakes suddenly disappeared from his life.

The boss didn’t come, and later even the people from his store didn’t come. When I asked, I found out that the cooperation had expired, and Chen Runsong had no time to take orders from their company, and he would never come again.

Jiang Xianfan couldn’t describe how he felt. He just met by chance. They didn’t even have each other’s contact information. The past was gone, but he seemed to always think of him again. The desserts with the right texture, the superb doll catching skills, the warm coat, and even the two little pear dimples always appeared in his mind.

He sat back in the car and put his hands on the steering wheel to go back to the company, but he ignored the little raccoon in an apron next to him. He had kept it in the car since he caught it at the arcade last time.

He looked at the little raccoon and even thought he looked a bit like Chen Runsong. He still remembered that the first time he saw him, he was wearing an apron with “Fluffy Baking” printed on it. At that time, he thought he was an apprentice in a cake shop somewhere…

Jiang Xianfan picked up the little raccoon, stared at it for a long time, sighed, and sent a message to Qi Zhixuan.

“Hello, Boss Qi, could you please send me Chen Runsong’s contact information?”

At noon, Qi Zhixuan was concentrating on his work when Pang Jing came.

Also brought lunch with his love.

“What is this?” Qi Zhixuan washed his hands and sat at the table. He looked at the thermos box in his hand. It didn’t look like the one packed in the store.

“Eat quickly.” Pang Whale opened the thermos bucket one by one. It was full of three kinds of local delicacies and a small stir-fried pork dish.

“You didn’t do it, right?” Qi Zhixuan asked in disbelief.

Pang Jing said nothing, wiped the chopsticks for him and handed them to his hand.

“Did you really do it?” Qi Zhixuan asked again.

“It’s not that bad. Don’t ask, just eat it quickly.” Pang Jing urged him.

“No, no, no, that’s not what I meant. It’s just that I don’t have anything at home. You have to buy food and cook for me… I’m very grateful.” Qi Zhixuan started to pick up the food, and suddenly asked him as if he remembered something, “Have you eaten?”

Pang Jing said that he had eaten, but also said that there was not enough time and there was no soup, so he would make it in the evening.

“This is already good.” Qi Zhixuan took a bite and said, “It’s so delicious. Why are you so good?”

Pang Jing didn’t say anything, and watched him chew quietly, his cheeks bulging like a little hamster.

Qi Zhixuan didn’t have a big appetite, so he didn’t pack much food, but there was still some left. Pang Jing wouldn’t let him wash the dishes, so he ran to do things again. Seeing this man busy and with empty clothes, Pang Jing sighed, thinking that he should make him fatter if he had a chance, but he was really too thin.

In the next few days, Pang Jing brought him meals. Qi Zhixuan had the illusion that he was like the kind of patriarch in the old days who went out to work every day to earn money. And Pang Jing was the kind of virtuous wife who cooked delicious food for him in different ways every day. She also told him to “be careful on the road~” when he went to work every day.

He couldn’t help but think about it. As he got older, he would be more than capable of being the head of a family. It would be better if he came from a scholarly family. It would be so pleasant to enjoy tea, enjoy flowers, and chat about music, chess, calligraphy, and painting in our free time.

As he thought about it, he couldn’t help laughing.

Pang Jing saw him suddenly drifting away while eating and grinning. He felt a little weird: “What are you laughing at?”

“Ah? No, I just think it’s delicious.” Qi Zhixuan interrupted his fantasy and continued to chew the rice.

“You still have a few days to finish it. I’ll tell my mother about the time to go back.” Pang Jing saw that he was almost finished eating and took a packet of paper from the table next to him and handed it over.

Qi Zhixuan wiped his mouth: “Hurry, it will be finished in two days at most.”

Pang Jing nodded, “We have to go to my house for a few days first. My parents are opening a shop and are quite busy. After they finish their work, we will go to my grandma’s house together.”

“Okay.” Qi Zhixuan didn’t say anything, thinking in his mind whether he should buy something and go to someone else’s house.

Pang Jing was going to the supermarket to buy some ingredients to make soup at night. While he was not in the store, Qi Zhixuan called Zhu Mingyue and wanted to ask her what New Year gifts she would recommend.

As soon as the call was connected, Zhu Mingyue’s scoldings came all over her face: “You little brat! You’re not going back to Haishi to celebrate the New Year! You’re delaying the reexamination. Do you still care about me as a senior sister?” This was followed by an exaggerated wail.

“Sister, please stop shouting, it’s deafening.” Qi Zhixuan held the phone far away and rubbed his ears.

“Ha! Little devil, it makes sense for you not to come back. Look, you haven’t come back for several years!” Zhu Mingyue not only didn’t stop, but started chattering again. After listening to her ramble for a while, she returned to normal.

She picked her nails on the other end of the phone and said emotionlessly: “Just buy some fruits, dried fruits, milk, etc. You’re not going to see your mother-in-law, what else do you want to buy.”

Qi Zhixuan was at a loss for words. His original intention was to ask what he wanted to buy for an elderly person like Grandma Pang Jing.

“Hey, Qi Zhixuan, tell me honestly, who is this little goldfish?” Zhu Mingyue suddenly changed the topic and started gossiping.

“Not only did you draw him, but you also went to his house to celebrate the New Year. Why, you don’t want to be just friends anymore? Is it even prettier than that little pine tree last year?”

Zhu Mingyue always felt that something was wrong. Last year, it was the handsome guy who made desserts who celebrated the New Year together. I had seen the photos they took together. So handsome Qi Zhixuan said that they were just ordinary friends. Is this guy even more handsome this year?

“Oh, don’t make wild guesses. He doesn’t even know my sexual orientation. Besides, he’s only a freshman and has just become an adult.”

Although Pang Jingren was indeed kind and handsome, Qi Zhixuan never dared to think about anything because he was so kind and was afraid of losing this friend.

“Tch, eating everything will only make me nutritionally balanced, and what’s wrong with my freshman year? It’s so good to be young. I just like the little brother who is tall and tall, and is as old as a diamond~” Zhu Mingyue let out a string of unknown laughter.

“…”

“Okay, I won’t tell you anymore. I’ll send you a shopping list later.” Zhu Mingyue said in a more serious tone, “But senior sister is not kidding you. You can try it if there is something suitable for you. Don’t always be alone, you know.”

After hanging up the phone, Qi Zhixuan leaned against the wall of the cashier counter and quietly thought about what Zhu Mingyue just said. He sighed again as he thought about it. Falling in love is a bit difficult, but Pang Jing… is really good…

He is always gentle and kind, taking care of him and helping him. Even if he is a nice person, he is also very good at swimming and doing all kinds of things. It seems that there is nothing he can’t do when he is here.

Although smaller than him, he seems to be the one being taken care of.

He thought, if he really wanted to be with such a person…

But he quickly shook his head.Putting aside Pang Jing’s uncertain orientation, why would such a good person choose him?

Qi Zhixuan thought of his failed love experience again.

Sometimes he really couldn’t understand how he and that person became like that.

Maybe I am still too stupid.

So things often get messed up.

Thinking of this, I feel a little sad.

It’s not like no one has expressed affection for him over the years, but he doesn’t want to be tied to anyone. He always feels as if he has lost the ability to love others. Sometimes it takes all his energy to control himself and not go to extremes.

He didn’t want someone to feel sad like his senior sister one day when he couldn’t control himself…

When he returned home in the evening, he was greeted by the smell of food as soon as he opened the door. Qi Zhixuan held on to the door frame to change his shoes. Hearing the sound of the frying pan in the kitchen, he felt a little dazed. This was really a very familiar yet strange feeling.

what is it

Home?

“Why are you standing there, wash your hands and eat.” Pang Jing came out of the kitchen with the dishes and saw this man standing at the door in a daze.

“Oh, okay.” Qi Zhixuan agreed and was about to wash his hands when he found the swimming goggles rolling next to the cat food bowl. He thought it was out of food and was about to go over and add more, but found that he hadn’t even eaten a few bites of the food he put out in the morning.

This is rare. In the past, the swimming goggles were not enough to eat. The doctor said that they should be rationed regularly, so they did not dare to give too much each time. You can often see it acting coquettishly and cutely in order to eat a few more mouthfuls.

“Xiaoyu, have you added food to the swimming goggles today?” Qi Zhixuan touched the head of the swimming goggles, and its comfortable tail was raised high.

“No.” Pang Jing set the dining table and came over to take a look.

That was indeed a bit strange. The two of them didn’t think much about it until after dinner and when they were about to watch TV, they smelled a strange smell. After searching for a long time, it turned out that the swimming goggles had peed on the sofa.

It is usually very well-behaved and knows how to use the litter box by itself. It is a clean kitten that never poops or urinates. The two of them checked their phones and understood a little bit. According to their age, this little guy may be in estrus.

Qi Zhixuan consulted his previous pet doctor, who asked them to observe him for a while. If he is in heat, it is not recommended to perform sterilization immediately. He can wait until the heat period is over before going to the hospital.

“It turns out that cats don’t only go into heat in spring.” The sofa was dirty. Qi Zhixuan sighed as he removed the sofa cover and wondered why the kitten grew so fast. He thought it was the little baby he had just brought back from the grass. Why did he grow up so quickly?

Pang Jing didn’t say anything. He took the sofa cover from Qi Zhixuan’s hand and prepared to wash it. He was more concerned about where he would sleep at night than what season the kitten was in heat.

“It seems that I have to make do with you and me. Although the bed is a bit small, fortunately we will leave in two days.” Qi Zhixuan tidied the sofa and took Pang Whale’s pillow and quilt to the room. Fortunately, the quilt was still clean, but he did not have a third quilt.

Pang Jing stood in the living room for a moment, then turned his head and saw Qi Zhixuan spreading a quilt in the room through the glass partition.

He is very thin and does not seem to have much strength. When shaking the quilt, he always shakes the quilt with great strength. His hair is blown up by the falling wind, and a bit of his smooth forehead can be seen from the side.

There are two pillows and two quilts on the bed, and they want to sleep together.

My Adam’s apple couldn’t help but roll up and down. I forced myself to look away, turned around and turned on the washing machine. I pressed it for a long time, but I didn’t know why it didn’t start yet.

“You know how to use it, why are you squatting here for so long?” Qi Zhixuan came over at some point. He tilted his head to look at the washing machine. The two of them were very close.

“It’s not broken.” His breath swept over Pang Whale’s face as he spoke.

“Yes, I can use it.” Pang Whale turned his head nervously.

Qi Zhixuan looked at him strangely, reached out and pressed the button a few times, and soon the sound of the washing machine was heard.
