Chapter 778 -330: Another Talk (Take 6000 words as interest, continue with three more chapters tomorrow)_2
一直在问 Zhou Yuwen.
“Not home yet?”
“Why so late?”
“Zhou Yuwen, are you ignoring me on purpose?”
“Zhou Yuwen, I miss you.”
Looking at one message after another bombarding his phone.
Zhou Yuwen responded with an ellipsis.
Just as Zhou Yuwen’s message was sent out, Jiang Xinyi quickly replied.
[Hmph!]
First, a sticker.
She said: “You finally replied! I thought you went MIA!”
Zhou Yuwen explained that he had been driving earlier and then was caught up having dinner with his parents and relatives, which delayed him.
After saying this, he didn’t expect Jiang Xinyi to immediately send over a video call request.
This caught Zhou Yuwen off guard, but he still clicked to answer.
At this moment, Jiang Xinyi was wearing a goose-yellow blouse and a white tank top, lying on her bed.
She blinked at Zhou Yuwen in the video: “Home now?”
“Yeah, I’m in my room.”
“So this is your room? Looks pretty spacious!” Jiang Xinyi remarked.
Zhou Yuwen replied, it’s just a self-built house, not like your big villa.
“Tsk, what are you saying? Just like you don’t have a villa yourself.”
Zhou Yuwen chuckled.
Jiang Xinyi asked Zhou Yuwen to take a spin around the room and let her have a tour.
Zhou Yuwen naturally complied, holding his phone to pan around, introducing her to the stickers on the walls and the books on his bookshelf.
Even just showing her the room led to a relaxed conversation between the two. When Zhou Yuwen started sharing funny stories about his high school days, Jiang Xinyi kept giggling on the other end.
Zhou Yuwen was leaning against the headboard chatting with Jiang Xinyi, looking visibly tired. Jiang Xinyi asked if he was really that exhausted?
Zhou Yuwen said, “Come on, try spending a whole day in the car yourself.”
Jiang Xinyi chuckled lightly. She didn’t look at the phone’s camera and gently called out, “Zhou Yuwen.”
“Yeah?” Zhou Yuwen responded.
Jiang Xinyi said, “I miss you…”
Although she had sent such a message before.
But words never quite compare to saying it aloud.
After saying this, Jiang Xinyi felt a little shy.
Not hearing Zhou Yuwen reply, Jiang Xinyi hesitated, curious, and snuck a glance upward.
“Huh…”
Only to find that Zhou Yuwen had somehow fallen asleep??
That silly fool!
Jiang Xinyi puffed up her cheeks in anger, but then again, looking at Zhou Yuwen sleeping like this, he actually seemed kind of adorable.
So she just laid there, watching Zhou Yuwen sleeping on her phone screen.
All of a sudden, a sour sensation crept up her nose.
She realized that Zhou Yuwen had gone home, and she might not see him for half a month, which made her heart ache as though she wanted to cry.
Maybe, this is what love feels like.
She held her phone and stared at Zhou Yuwen, watching and watching until, unknowingly, she too fell asleep.
Zhou Yuwen doesn’t snore when he sleeps, but his breathing is steady.
The two fell asleep with the video call still on, separated by thousands of miles, yet to Jiang Xinyi, it felt as if he was right there with her.
If only Zhou Yuwen could really be by her side now…
Zhou Yuwen must have been genuinely exhausted last night; he slept all the way until nine in the morning.
A self-built house has its advantages, but the downside is the lack of soundproofing, especially in shared family homes like Zhou Yuwen’s.
The first ray of sunlight poured into the room through the window.
Noises from the outside could already be heard in his ears.
Zhou Yuwen opened his eyes groggily and checked his phone, only to find the battery had run out.
Thinking about the video call with Jiang Xinyi last night.
The first thing Zhou Yuwen did was charge his phone.
Then he walked out to the balcony and opened the window.
During the New Year season, not many tenants stayed in the rental houses. The noise from earlier was just his mother doing laundry in the yard.
Zhou Yuwen noticed that Lu Wanting was standing next to his mother, wearing a loose crewneck sweatshirt and fleece-lined flesh-colored tights. She stood there watching his mother do laundry, occasionally chatting with her.
Lu Wanting said to Yang Lirong, “Auntie, you could switch to one of those drum washing machines with drying functions.”
Yang Lirong said, no need, the old machine still works just fine.
“Oh!” Lu Wanting replied thoughtfully.
At that moment, she noticed Zhou Yuwen on the second floor and immediately greeted him cheerfully: “Hey! Cousin, good morning!”
Zhou Yuwen nodded to her.
His mother noticed Zhou Yuwen and called out for him to freshen up quickly and come down for breakfast.
Ah, this is life back home. It’s not as glamorous as the bustling modern cities, but there’s a certain peace and joy in it—taking a toothbrush and a tea mug, filling it with water from the yard faucet, and squatting there to brush your teeth.
It had been so long since he lived like this, and in another couple of years, once the old house got demolished, this kind of life would likely never happen again.
As Zhou Yuwen squatted there brushing his teeth, unexpectedly, Lu Wanting also came over to brush her teeth beside him, for some reason or another.
Zhou Yuwen asked her why she hadn’t brushed her teeth yet?
Lu Wanting grinned and said, “That’s right! I just washed up too!”
“Oh.” Zhou Yuwen nodded.
The two exchanged a few words during this time but, because they were brushing their teeth, their speech was a little unclear.
Zhou Yuwen asked Lu Wanting if she had already started working at Meituan and if she knew whose assistant she’d be? freewebnoveℓ.com
“Apparently, it’s some strong woman named Zhu Hong! But I haven’t met her, they say she’s quite difficult to get along with.” Lu Wanting said.
