Chapter 56
Chapter 56
Xia Chen hung up the phone and went to the orphanage alone. It was agreed that Qin Lichuan would go there together, but before departure he suddenly had something to do and couldn't come, so Xia Chen went there alone.
The weather was getting hotter, and he stayed in the courtyard until late without paying much attention to him.
The baby finally recovered and was able to study with everyone, but he seemed to be more attached to him than before, as well as Qin Lichuan.
All afternoon, he kept asking him when Uncle Qin would come and when he could see him again.
Xia Chen was very helpless, but he couldn't give him a specific date.
Qin Lichuan seems to be really busy recently. Although the frequency of calling is still normal, the time for eating together and going home is obviously less.
The two of them hadn't eaten together for a few days, and they slept in two homes each these two days.
When Xia Chen got on the bus, he hesitated for a while, and after a stop, he finally got down to the subway entrance again.
During dinner, I talked to Qin Lichuan on the phone and told him that he was coming home very late, so he wouldn't bother him, and went back to the apartment to rest by himself.
Xia Chen struggled for a long time, and he came over again when he was a little worried.
As soon as he opened the door, the first thing he saw was a mess, a man's tie and a changed suit were thrown on the sofa in the living room. He picked it up and took a look, but it smelled of alcohol again.
Xia Chen frowned and put everything away for him, throwing the washing machine in the washing machine, and sorting the laundry.
I don't know if it's really too busy, and my aunt didn't let me come over.
The bedroom is still in a mess, it can be seen that he should go to the company as soon as he got up.
Xia Chen glanced at the time and called Qin Lichuan.
"When will you be home?"
It's a bit noisy over there, like a bar or something.
Qin Lichuan's voice was vaguely inaudible, and after a few seconds he seemed to have moved to a quiet place before Xia Chen could hear him.
"It's going to be a while, haven't you slept yet?"
Xia Chen's eyes drooped, and he spoke after a while, "... Well, then you should do your work first, I'm going to sleep."
"Xia Chen, I'm sorry, I've been..." Qin Lichuan wanted to explain something, but he couldn't say anything.
Xia Chen waited for two seconds and saw that he didn't speak again, so he hummed, "Then I'll hang up."
Looking at the hung up interface, Qin Lichuan loosened the tie on his chest a little annoyed, signed the form and went back without saying hello.
Whatever he loves, he won't accompany him today.
However, as soon as the car drove downstairs, the man's brows relaxed again.
The lights in his house were actually on, tsk, Qin Lichuan quickly drove into the warehouse.
He took his things and went upstairs quickly.
Xia Chen is here, it must be Xia Chen.
When Qin Qing and her mother come over, they will definitely greet him in advance, and Xia Chen is the only one left.
Apart from talking on the phone, the two haven't seen each other for two days. They were supposed to accompany someone to see the baby in the afternoon, but something happened halfway.
He opened the door lightly and walked in. The living room seemed to have been cleaned up as soon as he entered, and it looked much tidier than when he went out in the morning.
Then went straight to the master bedroom.
Xia Chen had already fallen asleep, he walked around the bed and squatted down to look at it for a while.
Then Youyou sighed, reaching out to rub his forehead.
"What should I do? I love you so much..." the man whispered.
Xia Chen didn't fall asleep at first, but with his action, he opened his eyes.
The two looked at each other, Qin Lichuan cocked his mouth, and slid his fingers over his facial features, "Did you wake up?"
Xia Chen frowned and pulled his hand down, and said in a hoarse voice, "You're back?"
The man nodded, lowered his eyes and kissed his lower lip, "I'm sorry, I missed the appointment today."
Xia Chen shook his head first, then pushed the person away, "It's late, go wash up first."
Qin Lichuan frowned, and stared at him for a while before getting up and going to the bathroom.
It's not that Xia Chen didn't notice, he was afraid, afraid that there would be some unsolvable problem between the two of them so soon.
The man washed quickly, but Xia Chen was still asleep when he came out, he leaned onto the bed and pulled him into his arms to stick against him.
Some powerless.
It would be great if I could meet him earlier, Qin Lichuan couldn't help hugging him and kissing him several times.
The next morning, Qin Lichuan had a rest, but Xia Chen went out early, and he was going to help Professor Yang.
When Qin Lichuan woke up, there was only Xia Chen's pajamas beside him.
He hugged his clothes and rolled around on the pillow where Xia Chen had slept, reached out for his cell phone and called him.
"Where did you go?" He thought he had nothing to do on Saturday.
In fact, there were no activities at all, but Qin Lichuan has been so busy, he thought he would not have time to accompany him, so he took the initiative to come to Professor Yang.
"Professor Yang's studio needs to be tidied up, I'm here to help."
"Why didn't you tell me yesterday..." Qin Lichuan said with some resentment in his tone.
Xia Chen paused, and it took a long time before he spoke, "You didn't ask me..."
Qin Lichuan frowned, knowing that he had said something wrong, "...Sorry, I've been so busy these two days that I lost my head."
Xia Chen didn't say much, "I can't tell you more, I'm a little busy, I'll go in first."
Qin Lichuan looked at the hung up phone and slapped himself angrily, telling you to talk nonsense, telling you to talk nonsense!
Xia Chen ate takeaway with everyone at noon, Ren Siyi saw that he was not in a good mood, so she accompanied him to eat in another rest room.
"What's wrong?" she asked, "Did you quarrel with Mr. Qin?"
Xia Chen didn't talk much about this aspect, so he could only shake his head, "No, I ate too much in the morning, so I don't have much appetite."
Ren Siyi nodded dubiously, "Okay, but I still have to eat some, and I will continue to work as a coolie in the afternoon."
"Ah."
"But Xia Chen, are you really okay? It seems that President Qin hasn't come to pick you up for a few days." Ren Siyi hesitated to speak.
When the two first started, she was both happy for him and worried, even though this was Qin Qing's elder brother, but after all, their identities were so different.
Xia Chen's expression remained unchanged, he just smiled, "I'm not a girl, what are you thinking?!"
Ren Siyi shrugged her shoulders, "Boys and girls are the same when it comes to dating."
"He's busy with work recently, so he doesn't have much time." Xia Chen was afraid that she wouldn't know how to answer her further questions, so he said directly.
"Oh..." Qin Qing said, "Bosses seem to be quite busy."
Xia Chen didn't speak, but... the door of the rest room was knocked open in the next second.
Ren Siyi, "!!! Qin... President Qin?"
Qin Lichuan raised his eyebrows, "Did I bother you?"
Xia Chen, "..."
Ren Siyi quickly waved her hand, "No, no, of course not, I'm just here to make soy sauce, hehe, I'll go right away..."
Xia Chen frowned and looked at the food box in the man's hand, "Why are you here?"
The man deliberately said seriously, "You don't want me to come?"
Xia Chen didn't want to pay attention to his tricks, and lowered his head to eat.
Qin Lichuan had no choice but to sit opposite the person, took his lunch box aside, and opened the one he brought over, "Eat this, it's your favorite."
Xia Chen looked at the delicate dishes he took out one by one, feeling a little confused.
"Don't you have to go to the company today?" He asked.
The man touched his nose, "Well...no need." He said, "Our Xiaxia must be more important than the company."
Xia Chen twitched the corners of his lips, noncommittal to this sentence.
God knows how many days they haven't eaten together, and Xia Chen didn't say a word during the whole process, it may be because of his state of mind, he restrained a lot more than before, as if he had returned to the time when he just met.
Xia Chen is always silent and calm.
Qin Lichuan looked at the lunch box that hadn't eaten a few bites, and his heart skipped a beat.
In the afternoon, I was going to a business dinner but I didn't dare to go, so I packed the food box and sat in the car waiting for Xia Chen to finish his work.
Ren Siyi packed up all the things in her hands, and couldn't help poking Xia Chen, "Hey, President Qin seems to have been outside the whole time, you? Do you want to go over and have a look?"
Xia Chen paused, feeling a little annoyed at his attitude today, as if he had overstepped.
It's just love, obviously nothing happened, but he has been restless.
After a while, Xia Chen went in to say hello to Professor Yang, and then went back first.
During these few minutes, he reflected on himself before he picked up his bag and went out.
Qin Lichuan saw him coming, opened the door and got out of the car.
"Isn't it just before dinner?" He took the bag from Xia Chen's hand.
Xia Chen paused, and just said, "I have an urgent order to go back to do, so I told the professor."
"Then... back to you?"
Xia Chen nodded, opened the door and got in the car.
Maybe because he noticed Qin Lichuan's cautiousness, Xia Chen softened his attitude, took out a chocolate from his pocket, opened it, took a bite first, and then brought the rest to Qin Lichuan.
The man raised his eyebrows, and ate it with some benefit, suddenly he couldn't figure out the rare before and after changes in Xia Chen's emotions.
"Is the order urgent?" Qin Lichuan asked, "Didn't you say that you haven't taken any orders recently?"
Xia Chen looked at his mobile phone, lowered his eyes and said nothing.
It's true that there is no list, but after today he decided to get busy again, and he found himself thinking wildly in time and space.
And... his mental state I don't allow him to rest for too long.
"It's not good if you don't pick up those who often cooperate." He explained.
The list that obviously does not exist will be there as soon as you open the mailbox when you get home. Qin Lichuan sat by and watched him skillfully write and draw on the board.
I went to the kitchen and cut a fruit plate out, "There's nothing to eat at home, let's go out to eat at night and buy something to fill the refrigerator, okay?"
Xia Chen stared at the computer screen without looking back, "Order takeaway."
Qin Lichuan, "..."
The man silently leaned in front of Xia Chen, with a bit of aggrieved expression and a trace of resentment.
"Honey, are you mad at me?"
Xia Chen took the human head from the front of the screen, "You think too much."
Qin Lichuan continued to sway in front of people, and said firmly, "No, you are just angry."
Xia Chen was very calm, "So why am I angry? Don't you need a reason to be angry?"
The man frowned, and said slowly, "I seem to be too busy recently..." He meant something.
Xia Chen didn't stop moving his hands, as if he was really busy.
"Isn't it normal for the boss of a company to be busy?" In short, he just didn't want to admit that he was awkward.
Qin Lichuan propped his head and stared at people non-stop, but silently felt a little guilty, thinking about whether he should tell Xia Chen about it.
"Normal, not normal." He said honestly.
The person who had been staring at the computer finally gave him a look, "Are you hinting at me?"
Qin Lichuan, "..."
