162 “Drunken Bones (Guyan 1v1 High H)” Parallel Time and Space Extra – Orthopedics Chapter (2)
byThe air was silent for a moment, and Xie Ciyan just stared at her, his eyes full of interest when he saw her nervous look.
“Ayan, what are you talking about? You two are brothers and sisters, how could you not recognize him.” Li Xiufang hurriedly pulled Xie Zhaozhao forward. She was so focused on her son that she didn’t notice her uneasiness. “Didn’t Zhaozhao always ask me about your brother? Now that the real owner is back, he is actually so shy.”
Li Xiufang didn’t realize the subtle atmosphere between the two of them, so she said to herself: “Okay, you two go back to the room and change clothes. You can eat when your father comes back later.”
Xie Zhaozhao just wanted to escape from here and escape from his sight. After hearing this, he agreed with his mouth and walked towards the room upstairs.
As soon as she climbed the stairs, an arm suddenly lay across her face, resting on the handle of the stairs.The tip of her nose smelled the familiar smell of tobacco and alcohol, and her heartbeat suddenly accelerated uncontrollably. She didn’t even dare to raise her head, for fear of seeing his disgusted look on her face.
Suddenly there was a chuckle above her head, and he lowered his voice and whispered in her ear: “You weren’t such a timid person in the bar just now. How come you have become a good girl now when you get home?”
“I, I…” She wanted to explain, but she didn’t know how.
The smile on Xie Ciyan’s lips deepened, “I’ve gained a lot of ability after so many years of not seeing you, and I’ve become more capable of flirting with men than your brother and I.”
Xie Zhaozhao suddenly raised his head, as if he wanted to confirm something, “At that time…did you already recognize me?”
There was a bit of laziness in his words, as if he didn’t take what happened in the bar to mind.”Of course, although I don’t often contact my family, my mother often sends me photos of you and me traveling together, so how could I not recognize you?” His eyes wandered over Xie Zhaozhao, wanting her to go to less places like that, but he also looked at the windbreaker on her body. It seemed like this was not the first time he had done this, and the words he wanted to say were swallowed back in his stomach, and he said nothing in the end.
The man let go of his hand on the ladder handle, put it in his trouser pockets and walked up.”Thank you Ciyan.”
Hearing the sound from behind, he stopped and turned around, raising his eyebrows.”What are you calling Xie Ciyan? Call me brother.”
For so many years, what she hated most was that Xie Ciyan was her brother, so how could she be willing to call him her brother.”Do you take what happened at the bar to your heart just now?”
Xie Ciyan was stunned for a moment, thinking that she was afraid that he would tell her parents what she had just done, so he chuckled and shrugged, looking unconcerned.”How could you care about being teased by a brat like you?” Seeing that the person was still stunned, Xie Ciyan spoke again, “Where is my room?”
Xie Zhaozhao glanced at him with complicated eyes, then quickly looked away, walked up to him, and led him the way.Xie Zhaozhao in front lowered his head, his eyes were a little red, but he gritted his teeth and endured it.She wanted to thank Ciyan for treating her as a woman, and she wanted to tell him loudly that she was already a senior in college and had reached the legal age for marriage, and was no longer a brat.
But she didn’t dare.
She was afraid that if she said it, it would arouse his suspicion and make him realize that she had feelings for him that were more than brother and sister.
Xie Zhaozhao silently took him to his former room. Xie Ciyan had not been at home all these years, but the furnishings in the room were not touched at all. He only asked his aunt to clean it regularly so that he could live there at any time when he came back.The man held the door handle and pushed the door open a crack. He turned his head and wanted to say a polite thank you to his sister, but he never thought that she went straight into the next room without saying a word. There was only a wall between his room and his.
Xie Ciyan didn’t care much, just treating her as a child.After entering the room, his eyes were filled with nostalgia, and he took a clear look at the surroundings and every furnishing in the room. They were all familiar places in his memories.He couldn’t help but sigh softly, feeling secretly that after that incident, he really didn’t come back for a long time.
He didn’t continue to ink, he opened the closet and randomly took out a black sweatshirt that his mother bought for him, put it on, put it in his pocket and walked slowly downstairs, his broad back showing a sense of laziness.
Li Xiufang was already sitting at the dining table. Sitting at the main seat was a majestic man. Although he was getting older, he was well-maintained and there was no trace of the vicissitudes of time left on his face.He glanced at the two places on the other side where the bowls and chopsticks were placed. Seeing that Xie Zhaozhao hadn’t come down yet, he raised his eyebrows slightly and called out to the man on the main seat, “Dad.”
Xie Xiaoce glanced at him when he heard this, but his face did not show the joy of seeing his son who had not returned home for a long time. He had a serious face and said, “Are you willing to come back?”
Xie Ciyan did not answer, but sat down in the empty space where the bowls and chopsticks were placed.Coincidentally, as soon as he sat down, Xie Zhaozhao came down.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Xie Zhaozhao couldn’t help but quicken his pace, walked to Xie Ciyan, sat down, and shouted obediently, “Dad.”
Xie Xiaoce’s eyebrows suddenly softened a bit, and he immediately responded, “Yes.” He then said to Aunt Wang who was standing aside: “Everyone is here, it’s time to start dinner.”
Immediately, one dish after another was brought to the table. If you look closely, several of them were Xie Ciyan’s favorite foods in the past, and some were Xie Zhaozhao’s favorites.Xie Ciyan immediately understood that the old man didn’t say anything, but in his heart he still wanted him to come back.
At this time, Aunt Wang brought a small cup of stewed soup and placed it in front of Xie Ciyan. Li Xiufang immediately said, “This is the tonic soup that Mom specially asked Aunt Wang to make for you. Drink more, it will be good for your health.”
He bowed his head in thanks and naturally took the spoon and took several sips.
“Come back now, when will you leave?” Xie Xiaoce’s deep voice sounded, and he kept moving his hands to pick up the dishes in front of him and put them into the bowl, as if he was just asking casually.
“I won’t leave for now.” Having decided to come back this time, he had no intention of going back abroad so soon.
After saying this, both Xie Xiaoce and Xie Zhaozhao looked happy. The old man’s attitude became much softer and his tone was no longer so harsh.”That’s right. Stop playing around when you come back. You’re getting older now. Get married as soon as possible and give me a fat boy. From now on, my business will belong to you and Zhaozhao. I have to get married first and then start a career.”
Xie Zhaozhao paused while picking up the food, then took his chopsticks back, clenched his fingertips tightly, and raised his ears to listen attentively to what they were saying.Xie Ciyan caught a glimpse of her retracting her chopsticks. She raised her chopsticks and picked up the unfinished prawn and put it into her bowl. Then she continued to answer the old man’s words, “You are too anxious. My foreign girlfriends haven’t been divorced yet. It’s hard to talk about it again. Let’s wait until I’m done.”
When Xie Xiaoce heard that Xie Ciyan had a girlfriend abroad, he couldn’t help frowning, and his face was a bit more serious than before, “It’s so wild when no one cares about it abroad.” He said with a mocking tone, more like looking down on him, “Now that you are back, please abide by the rules of this family. I don’t want to hear such bastard words again!”
He was just trying to make excuses, but he couldn’t take it seriously. When he heard Xie Xiaoce’s words, he just kept silent and didn’t speak.
But when these words reached Xie Zhaozhao’s ears, they turned into tiny needles pricking her heart.She looked at the prawn in the bowl and felt as if her heart was tightly grasped by a big hand, making her breathless.How could such a good Xie Ciyan belong to someone else? No one in the world could be worthy of him.
Listening to Xie Xiaoce’s words urging marriage, Xie Zhaozhao realized that Xie Ciyan would never be hers. Anyone who could sit next to him on this dining table and be served by him would belong to his future wife, her so-called sister-in-law.But what to do, she didn’t want this position, and she wasn’t willing to give it up. She thought that the person who could sit next to Xie Ciyan in this life was her, Xie Zhaozhao, and no one else!
She glanced at Xie Ciyan quietly, and a trace of crazy possessiveness suddenly flashed through her eyes, as if she was looking at her beloved Barbie doll, showing a look that she was determined to win.
Even if she is deviant, she still wants to have Xie Ciyan.
Perhaps, as long as she gets involved with him, Xie Ciyan will no longer treat her as a child who has not yet grown up.
Late at night, Xie Zhaozhao couldn’t sleep. He leaned on the back of the bed with his hands around his legs and buried his head deep in it. Xie Ciyan’s figure was all in his mind.8 years ago, she was 15 years old and Xie Ciyan was 19 years old.Due to the rules of his family’s upbringing, his father always asked him to comb his hair meticulously. Even though he was not short-sighted, he was still required to wear a pair of plain glasses, saying that he would look like a child who was really studying.Unexpectedly, after being sent abroad because of that incident, his appearance completely changed. His hair was no longer the way his father liked it, but was combed in the way he liked. The clothes he wore were the most disdainful to his parents. But now Xie Ciyan seems to have a more real human touch than he did back then, and he is not as cold to everyone back then.
She seemed to suddenly remember something, and the corner of her mouth curved into a very beautiful curve.It was only when he was facing her that Xie Ciyan was a little more gentle. It was he who cooked for her when her parents were busy, lectured her on topics, and stayed with her at night when she was afraid of sleeping alone. Why did Xie Ciyan, who had always been with her, want to be separated because of the relationship between brother and sister?Just keep going like this and stay with me until we grow old, can’t we?
“Well…”
Suddenly, intermittent low gasping sounds came from the room separated by a wall. The voice was familiar, but it felt a little red in the ears. It was like the weak and hoarse gasps coming from the throat during bliss, which was almost difficult to hear.It’s just that the wall between them is thinner than ordinary, so the sound insulation is not good, and any louder sound will be heard clearly.
In the past, she was the only one living on this floor, and she didn’t think there was any problem with the sound insulation, but now Xie Ciyan is back and living next door.Xie Zhaozhao knelt quietly on the soft bed, carefully pressed his hands on the wall, put his ear to it, and listened carefully to the sounds coming from next door.
With her ears close, the sound coming from the next room became much clearer, and the hoarse low breathing seemed to be right next to her ears.Xie Zhaozhao’s heart was pounding, his face was red, his ears were red, his throat felt dry unconsciously, and he swallowed a mouthful of nervous saliva.
Along with the high and low breathing at that time, Xie Zhaozhao was not an innocent little girl who knew nothing about others. She knew that Xie Ciyan, who was separated by a wall, was leaning against the wall at this moment, blaspheming herself.
