The Ten Years of Rebirth

Chapter 180 The Vinegar Past
At the dim door of the rented house, the two hugged each other tightly.

Xu Xing lowered his head and sniffed the fragrance of her hair, feeling each other's violent heartbeats. Under the current atmosphere, it seemed that they could hear each other's heartbeats.

He ran his hands along her back and gently supported her slender waist, only feeling that Yan Chijiu was sticking to him tightly, and even tried to stand on tiptoe. He looked down and saw the vinegar in his arms trying to stand on tiptoe I can't help but laugh a little, thinking it's cute.

But in the next second, Xu Xing suddenly realized one thing. Today, Yan Chijiu seemed to be wearing a particularly cool dress. He didn't wear the conservative pajamas before, and his two lovely white and tender slender legs didn't even step on slippers. Seeing him with bare feet made him feel a little distressed.

Probably because she felt that she was the only one staying in the rented room tonight, so Yan Chijiu didn't dress too conservatively, but instead wore looser clothes, which made her sleep more comfortable.

But how could she have imagined that Xu Xing flew here from home to meet her in the middle of the night, specially because of a message from her on WeChat.

When she saw the message from Xu Xing in the bedroom just now, Yan Chijiu didn't think about changing clothes at all, she didn't even have time to put on her slippers, so she rushed out immediately.

After recovering from the surprise, Yan Chijiu felt Xu Xing's big hand caressing between his waist and thighs, and suddenly his body trembled slightly, only feeling that the place he touched was hot, Crispy and numb.

But she was not willing to part with Xu Xing, on the contrary, she hugged him even tighter.

So in the next second, Xu Xing didn't want his little girlfriend to continue stepping on the floor barefoot to catch the cold, so he lifted her thighs and lifted her up into the air, so frightened that Yan Chijiu exclaimed in a low voice He made a sound, and quickly hugged Xu Xing's neck.

"I don't even wear slippers, aren't you afraid of catching cold?" Xu Xing couldn't help laughing when he noticed her two cute little bare feet.

"I was so excited just now... I didn't have time to put it on." Yan Chijiu buried his head in Xu Xing's shoulder, his voice was muffled and shy, his hands tightly wrapped around Xu Xing's neck, and his legs clamped him tightly .

Xu Xing walked in, closed the door, changed his shoes, and walked in with her in his arms.

All the way to the door of Yan Chijiu's bedroom, Xu Xing walked in holding Yan Chijiu's body, came to the bedside, and gently put her on the bed.

At this time, Yan Chijiu lay back on the bed, but his hands and feet were still tightly hugging Xu Xing, so that Xu Xing was also pressed down, his hands supported the bed, and he said with a smile: "I won't run away, Why are you hugging so tightly?"

Only then did Yan Chijiu react, and after blushing, he let go, moved to the head of the bed, blushing and covered the quilt, completely hiding his good figure, which made Xu Xing a little disappointed.

But soon, after Yan Chi vinegar eased his emotions, he silently moved to the side of the bed, vacated the bed beside him, and whispered to Xu Xing: "Xu Xing, can you talk to me?" it is good."

Of course Xu Xing was not polite, he took off his slippers after walking to the bed, lay down on Yan Chijiu's bed, and slept with her.

It's just that one is covered with a quilt and the other is not.

There is a distance of more than ten centimeters in the middle.

Probably because of being on the bed, Yan Chi vinegar was much more reserved than usual, he only dared to stretch out a small hand from under the quilt, tightly held Xu Xing's big hand, turned sideways, looked at Xu Xing with bright eyes, his whole body I feel at ease.

"What do you want to say?" Xu Xing also turned to look at her sideways, took her little hand and put it on his lips for a soft kiss.

Asked by Xu Xing, Yan Chijiu couldn't think of what to say for a while, blinked his eyes and thought for a while, and then said: "Today's dinner is delicious."

Xu Xing looked at her with a broken smile, and couldn't help stretching out his hand to pinch her face: "If you made me run all the way from home just to say this, then I can only give you a few more slaps on your little butt gone."

"Hmm..." Yan Chijiu was a little embarrassed, he laughed twice, blushing on half of his face, and shrank into the quilt, feeling his little butt was itchy, "Then, today uncle Auntie and the others, what did you talk about with Auntie Pei? About business?"

"Oh, this one, we are indeed talking about cooperation." Xu Xing briefly talked about the current situation on Sun Wanhui's side, "...In short, it's pretty good. If we can really deepen the cooperation in the future, it will be a win-win situation."

"That's it." Yan Chijiu responded, and fell silent again, not knowing what to say.

And Xu Xing did feel moved, and asked gently and cautiously: "What about your father? Do you want to talk to me about this?"

"He seems to be the director of the foundry now."

"Of course, if you don't want to talk, let's change the subject, don't force yourself."

Hearing Xu Xing's question, Yan Chijiu's face froze for a moment, as if recalling the past, his expression gradually dimmed.

"Well...it's not impossible to say."

Having said that, Yan Chijiu hesitated for a moment, then gently wrapped himself in the quilt, like a caterpillar, moved over there little by little, and finally leaned into Xu Xing's arms.

She leaned her head on Xu Xing's shoulder so that she didn't have to look at Xu Xing, and then she mentioned some past events in a low voice and intermittently.

"When I was in elementary school, I felt that my parents had a very good relationship. They would take me out to play and buy me snacks, gifts and toys."

"However, my academic performance is not very good. My parents will always criticize me, but they will not force me to enroll in any remedial classes."

"But after entering junior high school, the situation slowly changed..."

"Huh?" Xu Xing put his arms around her shoulders, gently stroked her head, and guided her gently and patiently, "How did it change?"

"That's, that's..." Yan Chijiu didn't know how to describe it for a while, and after thinking for a while, he continued, "I live on campus in junior high school, and I only leave school on Saturday evening every week. After returning home for half a day, Sunday I have to go back to school in the afternoon."

"But several times after I went home, I could hear my parents arguing in the middle of the night, and even woke up the next day to see things that had been broken on the ground."

"I was terrified at the time and didn't know what to do."

"I just thought that it might be because I didn't study hard that my parents quarreled."

"So then I started to study hard, and my grades got better and better, and I even got into the top three in the class, but the relationship between my parents didn't improve. Instead, every time I went home, I could only watch them getting more and more noisy."

"And then until the second day of junior high..."

"Well, it's the second day of junior high school." Xu Xing said he listened carefully, and asked curiously, "Has there been any changes in the second year of junior high school?"

"Yes." Yan Chijiu nodded vigorously, rubbing his cheeks in his arms, "During the second year of junior high, the two of them stopped arguing."

"Is it because your grades have improved?"

"I thought it was the same." Yan Chi curled up in Xu Xing's arms, and when he said this, his whole body trembled, "But suddenly one day, they took me to the court, and the judge asked me, Mom and Dad I'm going to get a divorce, who do I want to follow."

There was a sudden silence in the bedroom.

Xu Xing only felt the slightly trembling body of the girl in his arms, but she no longer had the slightest desire to be charming. The clothes on her chest were tightly held by her little hands, as if she was holding something very important.

He didn't know what to say at this time, so he could only hug her tightly through the quilt to let her know that she was no longer alone.

I don't know how long it took before Yan Chijiu continued with a choked tone: "I didn't have any choice at the time, I just relied on my feelings."

"Because after entering junior high school, my father was either arguing with my mother, or working overtime in the factory or on a business trip."

"And my mother will pick me up and go to school at least on weekends, cook me dinner, and help me wash off the thick clothes that are not easy to wash in school."

"So you chose to follow your mother?" Xu Xing asked softly, already having an answer in his heart.

Just remembering how that woman Zhang Jingyan was making trouble in the Internet cafe before, Xu Xing couldn't help but frowned in distress, feeling his whole heart being pulled.

Yan Chijiu in his arms didn't seem to want to continue talking, so he just nodded his head lightly.

After a while, Xu Xing originally wanted to ask about what happened later, but when he asked softly, Yan Chijiu didn't respond.

He looked down, only to find that Yan Chijiu had fallen asleep peacefully without knowing it, but there were still some tears in the corners of his eyes.

"Go to sleep, go to sleep." Xu Xing looked at Yan Chijiu's sleeping face covered with tears at the moment, feeling a little regretful in his heart, he would not have asked about such things if he had known.

To be honest, he and Yanchi vinegar worked in the same foreign company in his previous life, and he had heard countless rumors about Yan Chi vinegar.

Including her family, there have been various versions.

Some say it was the father who cheated, others said the mother cheated, and there were domestic violence, cold violence, etc., in short, there are all kinds of things.

And from Yan Chi's vinegar mouth, it seems to be a simple divorce between husband and wife.

Of course, Yan Chijiu was still young at that time, so even if there were other reasons, it probably wouldn't be too clear.

Xu Xing didn't think about these things any more, holding Yan Chijiu in his arms, his arm was pillowed by her head, and it was hard to remove it.

So he had no choice but to lie down like this, looking at the ceiling of the bedroom, and went straight to sleep.

It's the first time sharing the same bed with his girlfriend... Xu Xing turned his head and glanced at the quilt wrapped around Yan Chijiu's body, with a helpless expression on his face.

……

September 10, 7:[-] am.

Yan Chijiu woke up slowly from her sleep, barely opened her eyes, and stretched under the quilt.

Then she noticed something touched her arm, and turned her head to look, only to find that Xu Xing was sleeping quietly beside her.

Yan Chijiu, who was in a daze, recalled that Xu Xing seemed to have come all the way from home last night, and the two of them hugged on the bed and chatted about a lot of things... um...

Then he seemed to fall asleep?
Thinking of this, Yan Chijiu was a little embarrassed, rubbed his face, and sat up carefully from the quilt.

At this time, Yan Chijiu discovered that Xu Xing hadn't covered him with a quilt.

Could it be that you haven't covered yourself with a quilt all night?

Looking at Xu Xing's shrunken feet, rubbing each other from time to time, after he got up, the arm that was originally pressed was also hugged to his chest, frowning and looking very cold.

Seeing his appearance, Yan Chijiu hurriedly covered Xu Xing with his quilt, covering him tightly.

After finishing all this, Yan Chijiu had time to calm down, recalling the thoughts shared with Xu Xing last night, looked down at Xu Xing's peaceful sleeping posture, couldn't help reaching out and touching his face, fingers along his cheeks. His brows and eyes were gently stroked, and his eyes were gentle.

Last night Xu Xing was pressed by Yan Chijiu's head all the time, and it took him an unknown amount of time before he fell asleep. Now that his arms were freed, he slept even more peacefully, with no sign of waking up at all.

After admiring Xu Xing's sleeping position on the bed for a while, Yan Chijiu confirmed that he would not wake up for the time being, so he didn't go outside to change clothes. He took out the clothes from the closet and quickly changed them for himself.

When taking off his clothes, Yan Chijiu was a little nervous and irritated, staring at the sleeping Xu Xing, imagining the scene where Xu Xing suddenly woke up.

Fortunately, everything went well. After Yanchi vinegar changed into clothes, she walked out of the room to wash in the bathroom, and went out to buy breakfast.

When she walked to the breakfast restaurant outside the community, Xu Xing had already gotten up, and seeing that there was no longer Yan Chijiu beside him, and after calling a few times outside the room but no one responded, he sent a message on his mobile phone.

[Xu Xing]: Where have you been?I am responsible for sleeping, how can I run away after sleeping?

[Yanchi Vinegar]: I'm buying breakfast!

Yan Chi vinegar lined up to buy breakfast, looked down and saw this message on the phone, his face turned red immediately.

But immediately she found it very interesting, and immediately replied to Xu Xing.

[Yanchi Vinegar]: Mr. Xu, I'm just your secretary. Please forget what happened last night and act as if nothing happened.

Xu Xing, who was brushing his teeth, saw a message from his little girlfriend on his mobile phone, and almost choked to death while rinsing his mouth.

But he still played role-playing with it.

[Xu Xing]: It doesn't matter, I will be responsible, if you are pregnant with my child, I will accompany you to give birth to the child.

[Yanchi Vinegar]: No need, if I am really pregnant, I will just fly away and live alone with the child.

[Xu Xing]: Then come back ten years later and complete the counterattack and slap in the face?

[Xu Xing]: What kind of bloody romance drama script are you talking about?

[Yanchi vinegar]: You obviously said the latter!Shouldn't it be Mr. Xu, you are so regretful that you have to give up your career and come to me all over the world?
[Xu Xing]: I don't think it's necessary. These days, information is abundant, and if you have money, it's easy to find someone.

[Yanchi Vinegar]: This is boring, not romantic at all.

[Xu Xing]: Then yesterday wasn't romantic enough?
【Yanchi Vinegar】: Hehe~
[Yanchi Vinegar]: Mr. Xu, what do you want for breakfast?

[Yanchi Vinegar]: There are meat, cabbage, steamed buns, wontons, fried dumplings and noodles. Do you want soy milk or yogurt?Or tofu brain?

[Xu Xing]: I just want to eat you now.

[Yanchi Vinegar]: Seriously!

[Xu Xing]: Let's add soy milk to two meat buns, so we won't eat too much for breakfast.

【Yanchi Vinegar】: OK~
……

At [-]:[-], Yan Chijiu returned to the rented room with breakfast.

At this time, Xu Xing was already waiting at the dining table, replying to messages from employees in the company.

At this time, Xu Niannian just sent a wechat message.

[Xu Niannian]: Where are you?Went to work early in the morning?
[Xu Xing]: That's right, what's wrong?
[Xu Niannian]: I wanted to go with you, but you didn't even call me!

[Xu Xing]: Who said yesterday that you will not go to work today?
[Xu Niannian]: Didn't you say that you want to arrange a new project for me? I was thinking about going over today to see the plan first.

[Xu Xing]: Don't worry, there will be a unified meeting after work, I have to deal with other things today.

[Xu Niannian]: Oh, so you are at the company now?

[Xu Xing]: Not yet, have breakfast near the company.

[Xu Niannian]: Didn't Auntie make breakfast?You didn't eat at home?
[Xu Xing]: I was in a hurry to talk to Liao Qinyu, so I just came over and chatted while having breakfast.

[Xu Xing]: Let's not talk about anything else.

[Xu Niannian]: All right, all right, I'll come back to you later!

While sending a wechat message to Xu Niannian, Xu Xing took the meat bun from Yanchi vinegar, and after biting it down, Yanchi vinegar had already opened the lid of the soy milk and sent it to Xu Xing.

"Eat slowly." Yan Chi saw that he took a big bite, and the soup in the meat bun splashed out, and quickly picked up a tissue to wipe his chin and lips, like a virtuous little daughter-in-law.

"You eat too." Xu Xing motioned her to sit down and have breakfast, "Go to the company after eating, I'm still busy today."

"Yeah." Yan Chi sat obediently beside Xu Xing, opened the small wontons he bought, scooped one up with a spoon, and ate it in small bites.

"Give me one." Xu Xing smelled that the small wontons were quite fragrant, so he leaned over and opened his mouth to ask for it.

Yan Chi vinegar scooped up a small wonton carefully, and passed the spoon into Xu Xing's mouth, watching him sip the wonton with the spoon, his cheeks could not help but blush.

After Xu Xing ate the wonton, Yanchi took the spoon back, scooped up another small wonton, and after eating it, secretly took a sip of the soup in the spoon.

"Here." Xu Xing didn't want her wonton in vain, picked up the meat bun that he bit into the last bite, and stuffed it into Yan Chi's small mouth.

After Yan Chi opened his mouth to take it, he began to chew, his face was rosy, and he lowered his head to take a sip of the soup, feeling his stomach was warm and happy.

……

At nine o'clock in the morning, Xu Xing and Yan Chijiu walked out of the house and arrived at the company on time.

The employees who came to work overtime during the holidays had already arrived at their posts, and Yan Chijiu also found his own station and sat down, instead of disturbing Xu Xing's work, he joined the ranks of game maintenance and update work.

And Xu Xing walked into the office all the way. Peng Yuxuan, who was packing up documents and preparing materials inside, saw Xu Xing coming in, and quickly said hello: "Mr. Xu, good morning."

"Well, good." Xu Xing nodded, sat on the office chair, and said to Peng Yuxuan, "Go and call Gong Ao and Liao Qinyu. If Dai Zhuoshan is not busy, he will come too."

"Alright Mr. Xu."

Peng Yuxuan put down the work at hand, walked out of the office immediately, and called Gong Ao and the others.

Not long after, Gong Ao, who was on the same floor, knocked on the door first and walked into the office. Before Xu Xing could speak, he said with a gloomy face:
"Mr. Xu, some employees have been poached."

"Ok?"

"Two from the game department, four from the WeChat assistant, and one from Dai Zhuoshan." Gong Ao's face was serious, and he told Xu Xing the bad news, "It can be basically confirmed now that it's all done by Tencent."
