Chapter 6
What is helplessness?

Knowing it's poison but using it to quench thirst, knowing it's a cliff but jumping, knowing that we should push each other away but indulging in the familiar breath for a long time and refusing to stop.

Jiang Qiaoan felt that he must be crazy, and he didn't escape here immediately.

It was not until both of them were almost suffocated that Shi Mo Chi was finally willing to let her go, and a smile was already on the corner of his mouth when he spoke again: "It's so thin, it's because you swore back then that you would live better if you left me."

"Small belly." After four years, she couldn't remember what she said when they broke up.

"What did you say? You still owe 820 million to the petite people, pay it back now."

"...You said that you don't want the interest, and the principal will be paid slowly."

"I changed my mind."

"Then you go and sue me. Turn right when you get out of this building, and you will see the court after walking 300 meters." Jiang Qiaoan opened the door and gestured to see off the guests.

Shi Mochi closed the door behind his back, and slowly loosened his tie: "It's too rude to tell a woman, I don't mind taking a little selfishness."

"Why is it private?"

Shi Mochi didn't answer but just laughed.

By the time she realized it, she had already been forced to retreat into a corner by this man.

"No, it's 820 million. Give me three days, and I'll give it to you. When you don't need it, the husband will be troubled and have sex with me." Jiang Qiaoan waved his hand to stop him before he kissed again.

Shi Mochi's smile was even stronger: "Troubled? How come, you know, my physical strength has always been very good. How do you want to get together? Zhou Wanyue is still waiting for me to pay, and 82 may not be able to give you. As for Mu Yin, it’s still the same sentence, it’s not shameful to sell yourself, the key depends on who you sell to, I’m richer than him, so I won’t let you suffer.”

"Even if I owe you money, it is a crime to use this method to force the debt." As soon as the words came out, even she herself felt that the reason was extremely bad.

"Then you go and sue me, turn right when you leave this building, and you will see the court after walking 300 meters."

"..."

When Mo Chi was about to bully him, the phone rang unexpectedly.

"Shi Mochi, I have something to ask you, please answer the phone quickly."——Lan Yi's voice instantly disturbed the charming room, Jiang Qiao'an felt a chill in his heart, and smiled slightly, saying goodbye While driving, Mo Chi restrained his hands, took out the cell phone in his pocket for him, pressed answer, and handed it over.

Shi Mo Chi wanted to hang up directly, but after thinking about it, he still answered: "When did you change the phone ringer? Your sister-in-law heard it just now, and mistakenly thought I was promiscuous, so she was so angry that she wanted to push me out."

Lan Yi on the other end of the phone obviously paused, and subconsciously asked, "Who did you say heard it?"

Shi Mochi didn't repeat himself, he just asked, "What do you want from me?"

"Just to ask how you got a call now..."

"Say sorry to Ms. Zhou for me, and invite her to dinner another day. My girlfriend is not feeling well and I can't leave for the time being. Tell her that there is no problem with the cooperation, and you can send a feasibility study report to my office as soon as possible."

"Say hello to sister-in-law for me." Is Lan Yi a person who doesn't know how to advance or retreat, but still can't hide the depression in her voice, "You let me go, and I will settle the debt with you later."

Putting down the phone, meeting Jiang Qiaoan's surprised gaze, Shi Mochi smiled self-deprecatingly: "Actually, I really didn't want to make Lan Yi mad at you, half an hour ago I was still considering whether to ask her to be my girlfriend tonight After leaving Mu Yin's house that day, I have been thinking, since you still don't take my sincerity seriously, you might as well find someone who is in line with your parents' wishes and not annoying to marry as soon as possible, so as not to lose control I will live to dislike you."

The seriousness in Shi Mochi's expression made Jiang Qiao'an unable to utter a sarcasm asking him to leave, he hesitated for a long time, but still said "I'm sorry".

"I don't blame you, I deserve to be cheap. But Jiang Qiao'an, you have to let me know what I did wrong. It's only been two years, and you've made you so tired. You were the one who said you wanted to marry me, Be with me forever."

Jiang Qiaoan was speechless, sobbing silently.

"..." He walked over to wipe her tears, "Why are you crying again, it seems that you were the one who was abandoned miserably."

Before touching her cheek, Jiang Qiaoan climbed up forcefully. The kiss was so thick and urgent, with a salty astringency, that he couldn't breathe.

Jiang Qiaoan said in a tearful voice, "Don't go."

He just felt distressed, and rubbed her chin: "Who made you wronged like this, I will teach him a lesson for you."

Jiang Qiaoan lowered his eyes and considered for a while before hesitantly asked: "Even if I am bad and selfish, even if your family members hate me, you will not blame me, let alone leave me?"

Shi Mochi's heart moved, he suppressed his ecstasy and immediately replied: "As long as you never leave again."

"Then we..." Jiang Qiaoan didn't seem to believe it, and asked again before making a decision: "You promise?"

Without thinking about it, he replied in a deep voice: "I promise."

"Then let's make up." She finally smiled through tears, raised her face and kissed the tip of his nose, emphasizing again, "You have to keep your word!"

Shi Mochi shook his head helplessly: "How can I remember that I should be the one with the shadow."

Before Jiang Qiaoan could speak again, he said with a smirk: "No wonder everyone says that most of the quarrels between husband and wife are fights at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed. If I knew it would be resolved, why would it be delayed until today?"

She couldn't bear his complacency the most, so she said, "Who are you and your husband?"

He turned off the light, leaned over and pinched her cheek: "Since you have such a bad memory, I have to remind you again when I get tired."

Shi Mochi "reminded" too hard, causing Jiang Qiaoan to be admitted to the hospital that night.

Recently, the emotional ups and downs have been too much, the work is too busy, and Shi Mochi has been relentlessly tossing the whole night, this time the gastritis is particularly fierce.At 02:30 in the morning, Jiang Qiaoan, who refused to get up and get dressed because he was too uncomfortable, vomited and was almost dehydrated, and Shi Mochi forcibly carried him to the hospital.

After checking back and forth several times, Jiang Qiaoan finally got on the IV. Shi Mochi blamed himself, and regretted that he should not listen to her dissuasion and forcefully come for the third time.

Jiang Qiaoan felt uncomfortable and aggrieved, and lay in his arms, refusing to move. When she felt a little more comfortable, she said, "I want to eat corn and yam porridge."

Corn and yam porridge is not difficult, but before dawn, when Mo Chi was in a hurry, he came out with only his wallet. Without a mobile phone, where would he find someone to cook it?

After thinking for a while, Shi Mochi asked, "Can you stay in the ward by yourself for a while, I'll go out and borrow a phone, and ask the restaurant to deliver it."

Jiang Qiaoan was used to being independent and not clingy, but the two of them had just resumed their relationship when they were ill, so they naturally developed a sense of dependence that they didn't have before. Hearing this, he immediately tugged at his sleeve: "I won't drink, you do not go."

In life, Jiang Qiaoan has always taken care of him more. She rarely showed such a reluctant little woman attitude. Shi Mochi felt that it was fresh and moving. He was not the kind of gentle and considerate person in the past, but his tone now Unprecedented softness: "This hospital is very close to my parents' home. After this bottle is finished, I will take you back and let the aunt at home cook it for you."

Jiang Qiaoan's expression froze, and he immediately refused: "No need, it's not good to disturb others so late."

"My own home, how can you call me bothering you." Shi Mo Chi gently stroked the broken hair on her forehead, "Are you worried that my parents don't like you? My father's lungs are not very good. After winter, my mother I have been living with him in a nursing home in the outer suburbs, and I am not at home. There are only two aunts left at home. Don't worry, my dad doesn't care about my emotional affairs. You have met my mother, she is the most sensible and reasonable Although I have misunderstood you, just explain clearly."

She didn't make a sound, but grabbed Shi Mo Chi's clothes tightly, and it took a long time before she said "um".

The north wind was blowing outside the window, Jiang Qiaoan listened to the rapid rain, and for the first time in four years, he did not feel lonely and cold in the cold and rainy winter.Shi Mochi patted her on the back lightly, and casually picked up the newspaper beside him and read her the short story on it. His voice was deep and mellow, which made her feel very at ease.

She gradually became sleepy and finally fell into a deep sleep.

When Jiang Qiaoan woke up, she found that she was sleeping in a strange room. She sat there for a while, and when she saw the men's coat on the hanger, she was sure that what happened last night was not a dream. Mo Chi reconciled as before.

The pillow and bedding were full of the smell of Mochi, if I guessed right, this should be his bed and his room.

After being separated for too long, except for the house in the same neighborhood as Mu Yin's family, she only knows that Shi Mochi has an old apartment outside the school, and this place is obviously not the two places she has been to.

There was a set of home clothes beside the pillow, Jiang Qiaoan got up and changed, stepped on the slippers beside the bed and went out to look for Shi Mochi, but there was no him in the huge living room, she walked to the French window and opened the curtains, only to find that there was a There is a vast expanse of whiteness, and the first snow since the beginning of winter is so heavy.

"Miss Jiang?"

Jiang Qiaoan looked back and saw that the person who called him was a woman in her 50s. She looked at her secretly and asked with a smile: "The corn and yam porridge you want to eat has been boiled early in the morning. It is warming in the pot. Do you want to serve it?" come out?"

She didn't know how to address her, so she just smiled slightly: "Then I'm sorry to trouble you, where is Shi Mochi?"

"He went to work early in the morning and said he would come back for lunch. It's already past eleven o'clock, and it's almost time, and the kitchen is getting ready. Before he left, he repeatedly told me not to forget to take the medicine for you on time. Medicine and porridge, I'll put bath water for you."

She didn't call Shi Mochi "Mr.", but replaced it with "he" in the tone of an elder. Jiang Qiaoan understood that this was probably not Shi Mochi's house, but his parents' house.

As if she had strayed into someone else's territory, she felt very awkward. Fortunately, the aunt of Shi's family was very considerate and took care of her everywhere. After soaking in a hot bath, Jiang Qiaoan felt much better. She put on home clothes and went out Shi Mo Chi was already waiting in the living room when he just came back.

"The pajamas belong to my younger sister. She came to live with me last year. She only stayed for one night but brought two sets. This set was never worn. I just went to the hospital. I asked Auntie Sun to wash your original clothes. It's quite interesting to see you wearing cute clothes."

"Your sister is Yang Jinghan, right?" She had seen two of Shi Mochi's three younger sisters, and a charming beauty like Shi Xia Xing would not have chosen pajamas with two cubs attached to them.

Shi Mochi thought she was jealous, so he laughed: "That girl ran away angrily and never contacted me again, she's just a child, if you like one today and another tomorrow, don't take it seriously. The pajamas are not hers It belongs to my other cousin, Xiong Xiaole, among the three of them, only her is taller, and the clothes of the other two are short for you."

Jiang Qiao'an just had porridge and was not very hungry. She only ate a few mouthfuls with Shi Mochi for lunch. She didn't want to stay longer at his parents' house, so Aunt Sun urged Shi Mochi to leave as soon as she left.

But Shi Mochi refused: "The doctor asked you to rest for two days. I have already asked for leave for you and Zhou Wanyue. Your stomach can't eat randomly. There are many things at the end of the year. I squeeze and squeeze, so I can only accompany you. One afternoon. You will definitely live with me in the future. Return the place you rented if you have time. There is no reliable person in my place who can take care of you. We will only live here for the next two days. No one can compare to Aunt Sun Careful."

Jiang Qiaoan was dissatisfied with his unauthorized arrangement: "Who said I want to live in your place, your family members know that place, and it was so bad when I was looking for you. I didn't have such a serious illness, so I don't have to be taken care of. !"

Shi Mochi felt baffled: "So what if my family sees it, why do we have to hide it from them? When we get married, they will naturally know. I haven't said it before. As long as I explain it clearly, they will never embarrass you."

Jiang Qiao'an kept silent, knowing that it was impossible, but she still couldn't restrain herself from wanting to be with him. Most of the reason why Yang Ruiqi opposed their association was because of Shi Mochi's father. Yang Ruiqi said that Shi Tuojin was very Minding her father, paper can't hold fire. When she meets Shi Mochi's father in the future, her relationship with Yang Ruiqi and the real reason for their breakup will inevitably be exposed. Shi Mochi's reaction after knowing the truth is beyond her imagination now. I don't want to think about it.

Jiang Qiaoan insisted on leaving, Shi Mochi followed her, but after lunch, it snowed again, the road conditions were too bad, and the car was difficult to drive, so they had to talk slowly, and the two retreated back after they left the house.When Aunt Sun felt distressed, Mo Chi ran back and forth and took advantage of the situation to keep them for dinner. Jiang Qiaoan was not an ignorant person, so he nodded and agreed.

Having nothing to do, Shi Mochi took Jiang Qiaoan to wander around, it was snowing and it was impossible to go to the garden, the TV show was too boring, and they were not married after all, and it was difficult for the two of them to spend the day in front of their elderly aunt at home. After getting into the bedroom, he led her to the study to look at the photo album.

The Shi family's study room was well-regulated. Seeing Shi Tuojin's photo, Jiang Qiao'an couldn't help but smile: "Although the facial features are not the same, you and your father's temperament are very similar, and they are both naturally unsmiling. We are not together yet. At that time, the girls in our class called you Wannian Bingshan."

"...The boys in our class also said that you are a tough nut to crack." Facing her, Shi Mochi was always stingy, "My facial features are like my mother, oh, it's my real mother."

He showed her the photo of his biological mother. Although her eyebrows were plain, she was very dignified. Shi Mochi did look like her in seven parts.

Jiang Qiaoan thought of himself, and said in a low tone, "I haven't even seen my biological mother."

"Didn't you say that your mother remarried when you were five or six years old? Didn't she tell you bedtime stories every night? How could it be that she didn't even see her face? I didn't know when my mother left. When I was three years old, I didn't have any memory at all. By the way, do you want to find your mother? I'll send someone to check, it should be easy."

"No! No, she didn't come back later, probably because she didn't want to be disturbed by me." Jiang Qiaoan consciously made a slip of the tongue, immediately changed the subject, pointed to a black and white photo and asked, "Are these all your family?"

"That's right, since she is determined to leave you, there is no need to go looking for it again. Well, this is my father's family portrait when he was a child." Shi Mochi pointed to her one by one, "This is my grandfather, my father and I." Grandma, my dad, my second uncle and my three aunts."

"Don't you only have two aunts? Why is there one more?"

Shi Mochi clicked on the upper right corner of the photo: "This aunt was adopted by my grandparents, not my own. She is very poor. She lost her parents when she was a baby. She was only in her twenties when she died. When my grandma saw her I was sad because of the photo, so my dad took all the photos back, and this one is also her."

Jiang Qiaoan was still guilty, just glanced at it casually, but felt that the face was very familiar, so he picked it up and looked at it carefully, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "Next time I will show you the photos of me when I was young, and your aunt Pretty similar."

Shi Mochi flipped through a few more photos, and after looking at them, he said: "The photos of her when she was a teenager are more like you. No wonder people often say that when there are too many people, she will bump into her face. I didn't pay attention to it before, so I didn't Discover."

She was about to speak when she heard Aunt Sun asking them to have tea and snacks, she remembered something and said to Shi Mochi: "By the way, will this Aunt Sun tell your parents that I have been here?"

"You don't want her to say that I will explain later."

Jiang Qiaoan insisted on refusing to move to Shi Mochi's place, so Shi Mochi had no choice but to live in Jiang Qiaoan's rented apartment. The house was too small and it was inconvenient for two people to live in it. Within half a week, they planned to change places. .

Shi Mochi didn't understand why Jiang Qiao'an was so against his family, he didn't even want to go to his own apartment to avoid an unlikely meeting, but he could only rely on her, dragging her to see the house early in the morning on weekends.

During the preparation period for the new company, Jiang Qiaoan only had one day off a week, so he naturally didn't want to run around with him, but Mo Chi was the most picky at the time, and he didn't find a satisfactory real estate after looking at it all morning.

"Don't look at it in the afternoon, go back to eat and take a nap, I'm too tired to walk, and my feet are swollen." Jiang Qiaoan raised his foot to show him the thin and high heels.

"Who asked you to wear this! It's not sure today, and you won't be free in the future. You can't even squeeze my luggage. Eat lunch outside, and then go to the department store to pick out a pair of flat heels." Shi Mochi held her while typing. Call friends to recommend listings.

Jiang Qiaoan couldn't beat him, so he had to continue until four o'clock in the afternoon, when Shi Mochi chose two places that he was relatively satisfied with.

"That's all. It's hardcover. It's easy to pick up a few furniture and appliances and move them here." She really didn't want to leave.

Shi Mochi thought for a moment before saying: "This house is too small. If you want a study room, you can't have a baby room and a nanny's room. You have to change it when you get married. Why don't you choose the one you just saw? The renovation will take three or four months at most. Stay with me for a while, so as not to trouble you again later."

"Marriage..." Jiang Qiaoan subconsciously repeated.

Shi Mochi raised his eyebrows: "You are 27 and I am [-]. Isn't it right to get married as soon as possible? It's not the first day we know each other and we need to get in touch. Don't you want to?"

"How can you decide such a big event as marriage on your own?" Jiang Qiaoan lowered his eyes.

Before getting married, of course she had to meet her parents. Jiang Qiaoan didn't want to mention this until she found a suitable opportunity to explain her relationship with Yang Ruiqi to Shi Mochi.

Shi Mochi looked at her for a while, then opened the door and got into the car without saying a word.

Jiang Qiaoan knew that he was angry, and while secretly slandering him for being stingy, he chased after Shi Mo Chi with a smile and hugged Shi Mo Chi's arm to coax him: "It's still early, I don't have the energy to cook after walking for a day, I'd better eat dinner outside Now, let’s go shopping and watch a movie together.”

"Don't go."

"I knew you wouldn't be willing to go." She had expected him to answer this question a long time ago, but curled her lips deliberately, "Vice President Shi has a lot of things to do every day, even if he has time, he won't waste it on me. Naturally, he will leave it for me. Miss Lan's."

His complexion brightened a little, but he said: "Didn't I explain to you what happened to her? Pretending to be jealous, backstabbing, and changing the subject are useless tricks like this."

Jiang Qiaoan continued to pretend to be angry: "Then have you ever watched a movie with her? Have you ever thought of asking her to be your girlfriend?" said?"

"I've never seen you have such a good memory. I said all this to annoy you." Shi Mochi stretched out his arms to hug her, and said with a smile, "I even saw Lan Yi peeing her pants and having a runny nose when she was a child." However, how could I really be interested in her, the movie I watched with her was so boring, if the director and producer were not sitting next to me, even if I tried not to leave early, I would have to fall asleep."

"But we've been together for so long, and you haven't even watched a boring movie with me. Also, if you don't have intimate actions, you don't have to worry about being written as gossip when you are photographed." Originally, it was just acting Speaking of this, Jiang Qiaoan really felt a little dissatisfied.

Shi Mochi gritted his teeth and squeezed her face hard: "How dare you speak out against me, I haven't taught you a lesson yet! What's the matter with you and Mu Yin? Let me go out with him so late, don't you?" He said, he was thinking about you, but you still didn't say no, saying 'give me some time, I'll think about it'!"

"..."

The two were angry for a while, and after a while, they felt that they were no longer boys and girls. It was too boring and ridiculous to quarrel with each other. They glared at each other and immediately reconciled with each other with a smile.

"Go to the movies after dinner." Shi Mo Chi took the initiative to hold her hand.

Jiang Qiaoan took advantage of the situation and rested his head on his shoulder: "I don't want to go. I just said casually. I was tired all day and I didn't even want to eat dinner. I just wanted to fall on the bed and sleep until dawn."

"I knew early on that you were finding fault on purpose to change the subject." In fact, how could Jiang Qiaoan's tricks scare him? He didn't really have a lower IQ, but he was willing to jump into the trap she dug.

Before Jiang Qiaoan had time to be proud, he heard Shi Mochi say: "Go back and go straight to sleep? It's a good idea! Go to the movies after dinner, so that you won't have to use 'I went to the movies with Lan Yi' next time when I get awkward. Didn’t watch it with me’ to talk about things.”

Jiang Qiaoan regretted endlessly: "I was wrong, I really don't have the strength to go to the cinema..."

"Are you finally willing to admit it?" Shi Mochi smiled slyly, "If you do something wrong, you have to be punished. You can choose one of two or three times of exercise before going to bed or two or three movies."

Thinking of what happened last night, Jiang Qiaoan didn't hesitate for a second: "I choose to watch a movie."

"..." Shi Mo Chi immediately turned cold, "Okay, then today I'll let you watch as much as you want!"

I haven't watched the movie news before. After dinner, Shi Mochi and Jiang Qiaoan randomly chose the earliest one, but they didn't want it to be an action movie. Jiang Qiaoan naturally didn't like to watch it, and gave birth to the movie only 10 minutes after the opening. Sleepy.

Shi Mochi knew that she was the slowest at this time, so he took the opportunity to ask: "The house should choose the townhouse, and we will get married after the decoration is completed?"

In a daze, she really let out a "huh".

"I will return the house you rented tomorrow. It can be renovated for up to two months, and then it will be aired for another two months, a total of four months. My parents will not go to my apartment twice a year, and they will never meet. , let’s move there temporarily.”

Jiang Qiaoan was already asleep, so he shook her awake and asked again.

"it is good."

Hearing this answer, Shi Mochi was finally satisfied, and dragged her up half-pull and half-hug: "I just said that watching movies is boring! It's you who insisted on coming, and if you want to sleep, let's go home and sleep."
