I locked the door with my backhand, and the metal bolt clicked into the slot.
As soon as I stood behind the door, I heard the clear sound of the door opening coming from the next door. When the door closed, I walked to the living room.
"How could you mess with such a person?" I loosened my collar.
Charlene put her windbreaker on the armrest of the sofa: "After dancing during the live broadcast, he started shopping for gifts like crazy, and sent endless private messages asking me to meet."
I quickly calculated in my mind: "Sixty thousand yuan? What kind of business can you spend so much on?"
"It's said to be a business, but I don't know what kind of business." She explained.
"Why don't you stop broadcasting now." I walked to the window and drew the curtains tighter.
Charlene hugged the cushion: "But live streaming is my main income."
I turned around and looked at her, "It's better than an accident. He has not crossed the line now, and calling the police is useless. But I can't guard you every day."
The room was silent for a moment, with only the faint sound of the air conditioner running.
But if the broadcast is stopped, will he be more extreme? After all, he knows which area I live in. Avoiding the possibility of angering the other party; now it is a dilemma.
Charlene walked into the bathroom with a change of clothes. Soon, the sound of water sounded, and hazy water vapor spread on the frosted glass door.
I walked around the room, the man’s dark eyes lingering in my mind.
· He was able to resist the provocation in the restaurant and not get angry on the spot. This forbearance was more disturbing than his rage.
He is like a poisonous snake lurking in the dark, waiting patiently for the best opportunity.
This kind of entanglement is the most difficult to deal with. All his current actions are in the gray area of the law. Even calling the police may have little effect.
The sound of water stopped. I subconsciously looked in the direction of the bathroom, and an idea suddenly flashed across my mind.
Perhaps we should ask Chen Zhipeng for a favor and ask him to bring a few fellow riders to take turns keeping an eye on Charlene's residence for a few days.
The bathroom door opened a crack, and Charlene walked out wrapped in a bathrobe.
"I've washed it." She tightened the collar of her bathrobe unconsciously.
I also took a shower and walked out of the bathroom covered in moisture.
Charlene was already lying on her side on the bed waiting for me.
Next, she moved very loudly, and I knew she did it on purpose, just to let the person next door listen.
I lay quietly on the bed, Charlene's breathing gradually became even and long beside me.
The clock on the wall pointed to one o'clock in the morning, and I knew that I must not spend the night here.
I opened the quilt and listened for a moment before there was any movement outside.
He walked to the bed and leaned over, whispering in Charlene's ear: "It's time to go."
She opened her eyes in a daze and woke up instantly.
Like two tacit accomplices, we quietly made the bed and eliminated all traces of our stay.
When checking out, the front desk yawned and glanced at the clock when he took the room card.
The car was driving on the empty streets in the early morning. Charlene leaned against the passenger seat and closed her eyes to meditate.
Half an hour later, we returned to the rental community. I turned off the engine and finally got rid of the plaster this time.
"Thank you tonight." Charlene thanked her softly.
"Don't thank me, I should help you." No matter what, I took advantage.
Next, I didn’t turn around and take out the key until I heard the door next to Charlene closing.
turning around and opening the door of his house, the room was dark.
Touching the switch on the wall, the ceiling light in the living room lit up with a dazzling light.
The coat that Su Yan wore yesterday was still on the sofa, and there was a half-pack of uneaten potato chips on the coffee table.
Going back to his room and preparing to lie down, he glanced at his phone and there was an unread message. It was a message from Wang Qiuya: "Pick me up at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
Have a safe night. The next morning, I woke up before my phone alarm went off.
I finished washing and was about to go out to pick up Wang Qiuya, but I bumped into Xia Lin in the corridor.
"Can you give me a ride? That pervert may still be squatting at the gate of the community."
I looked at the time and nodded: "If that pervert harasses you, call me!"
After dropping Charlene at the door of the hospital, I looked at the time, stepped on the accelerator and rushed to the industrial park.
Wang Qiuya was already standing at the entrance of the park. She opened the car door and got in. Then she leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes to relax.
I noticed the faint green shadow under her eyes, "Didn't you rest well?"
She hummed softly. When waiting for the red light, I saw her unconsciously put her hand on her lower abdomen. This subtle movement made my heart tighten slightly.
"Why don't you go to the company today?" I asked tentatively.
She opened her eyes: "There will be an investor meeting in the afternoon."
She didn't try to persuade her again. I know that the moment she decided to keep this child, she was ready to bear it all on her own.
Today I did not go to the site, but stayed with Wang Qiuya like an assistant.
Send her back to the villa first, and watch her drag her tired body directly to the bedroom on the second floor.
"I sleep for two hours." She explained, holding on to the handrail of the stairs.
While she was resting, I drove to the imported supermarket. Carefully selected fresh ingredients.
I also specially picked up a bottle of maternal vitamins when I checked out. No matter how many disputes there are between us, it is a fact that she is pregnant with my child, and these basic cares are what she should take.
Back to the villa, I started to clean up and made a nutritious meal for Wang Qiuya.
When Wang Qiuya went downstairs after resting, the health soup had just been stewed.
She changed into home clothes, and her bare face looked much softer in the steam.
"I didn't expect you could cook." She sat down at the dining table.
"When there are not enough riders at the station, I often take over the shift to deliver meals." I filled a bowl of soup and pushed it in front of her.
She sipped the soup and suddenly said: "I sold all the shares in the logistics company."
I knew that the logistics company was left by her ex-husband.
"Cash out three billion. The handover will be completed next month." Her tone was as calm as if she was talking about someone else's business.
I suddenly understood why she was so busy these days.
“Why suddenly?” I don’t quite understand.
"The price offered by the other party is very good, but my ability is limited and I cannot hold on to such a big industry." Wang Qiuya was a bit self-deprecating.
This is indeed a problem, just like if you give me a company with tens of billions of assets now, I estimate that the management will be a mess.
"That's good, you can raise your baby with peace of mind!" I support Wang Qiuya in doing this.
"Don't think about this money, it's not your share." Wang Qiuya warned.
"Don't worry, I really don't have that idea." What I said is the truth.
These assets will all belong to my son from now on.
“You’ve been going to bars more recently. In a few months, I won’t care about anything.” Wang Qiuya, who is wealthy and free, is ready to become a hands-off shopkeeper.
"Okay!" I could only bite the bullet and agree.
