Chapter 949: Chapter 931: Brother Ye Xi in a Sorry State! (42)
The next day, Ye Xi was still in a state of seclusion.
The two adults at home went out to work as usual, and Pu Sangzhi stayed home with Ye Xi, so it could be considered as keeping Ye Xi company!
Ye Xi skipped breakfast and lunch again...
He hardly ate anything all day yesterday.
Except for a small bowl of porridge yesterday morning, you could say he basically hadn’t eaten anything else from yesterday till today, not even drinking water...
Because his room door never opened. Pu Sangzhi didn’t know if he came out to use the toilet...
Maybe he came out at night?
Pu Sangzhi guessed.
Huo Feng messaged her, saying his entire family started packing their luggage. His parents are all set to take turns driving, following GPS for over fifty hours just to come here and find her...
Just thinking about that journey made Pu Sangzhi feel tired!
She also told Huo Feng they don’t need to go through all that trouble, they can meet up next time.
However, Huo Feng declined her suggestion.
No matter what Pu Sangzhi said, Huo Feng wouldn’t listen, so she stopped trying.
...
At two in the afternoon, it started to rain heavily outside.
Pu Sangzhi, staying at home, turned her head to look at the large batch of clothes and quilts hanging on the rack outside...
She hurriedly rushed out to collect the laundry.
The rain was quite heavy, but Pu Sangzhi didn’t know where the umbrellas were kept at home; she wasn’t very familiar with the house setup.
So, she ran out without an umbrella.
Pu Sangzhi collected one batch of clothes, but there was still another batch and a lot of quilts left outside...
Because the sun was quite good the day before yesterday, Chen Huifen said that things needed airing because it was New Year, and they were left out for over a day...
Pu Sangzhi guessed there were just too many things happening yesterday, and that’s why Chen Huifen forgot.
Thankfully, Pu Sangzhi noticed them.
She rushed out again to collect the second batch of clothes, and the rain was so heavy that her hair was almost soaking wet...
"Wow, so cold..."
Since it was winter, and a heavy rainstorm was blowing, the wind did indeed feel bone-chilling.
As Pu Sangzhi was collecting the second batch of clothes, suddenly, a clean pair of hands reached out and took over the clothes from her...
Pu Sangzhi looked up and her eyes lit up slightly, "Brother Ye Xi!"
Ye Xi’s obsidian-like pupils met hers, and he softly said, "You go inside, let me do it."
"Let’s do it together..." Pu Sangzhi insisted.
"No, I got it."
Ye Xi said and carried the clothes inside the house.
Pu Sangzhi didn’t head back inside; instead, she lifted her head and continued to collect the quilts...
However, before she managed to take down the quilt, Ye Xi’s hand reached out and took the quilt from her...
Pu Sangzhi sometimes had to admit, being a bit taller does have benefits.
She had pulled down multiple times without success, but Brother Ye Xi lifted once and got it down easily!
"Let’s go."
Ye Xi said just one word and immediately went back into the house.
Pu Sangzhi turned with him and ran inside, thinking quietly in her heart: Brother Ye Xi seems to have recovered his spirits? Now he looked much better...
All the quilts and clothes outside were thrown inside the house, with both Ye Xi and Pu Sangzhi having gotten somewhat wet from the rain.
"Brother Ye Xi..."
Pu Sangzhi wanted to say something to Ye Xi but saw him heading outside again, without using an umbrella, walking straight into the rain...
Pu Sangzhi was really startled by his odd behavior, "Brother Ye Xi!"
Pu Sangzhi quickly chased after him, not wanting to get drenched, so she hastily grabbed a newspaper, holding it over her head, and ran outside.
"Brother Ye Xi, what are you doing? The rain is pouring so heavily!" Pu Sangzhi shouted nervously.
She wanted to raise the paper higher to cover his head, but Ye Xi was too tall...
Even though Pu Sangzhi tried raising the paper, she still couldn’t cover his head, so she only put her hand down and followed his steps, "Brother Ye Xi, let’s head back?"
Ye Xi quietly stood in the rain, closing his eyes, seemingly enjoying the shower of rain...
The newspaper in Pu Sangzhi’s hand quickly disintegrated in the rain, so she had to take off her jacket and hold it up over her head, "Brother Ye Xi!"
Only then did Ye Xi lower his head to look at her, the layer of water-misted eyes hiding unknown emotions...
Pu Sangzhi quite frankly couldn’t understand the look in his eyes...
"Brother Ye Xi..."
"I want to drink."
Ye Xi suddenly said, "I want to buy some alcohol..."
"Ah..."
Pu Sangzhi was momentarily stunned but quickly reacted, "Okay, wait a moment... I’ll find an umbrella, but don’t get soaked!"
"I’m very hot."
Ye Xi stated, "These two days have been very hot, being drenched for a while is fine, I’ll take a bath later."
Seeing him still giving reasons, Pu Sangzhi didn’t know how to argue with him, so she just nodded and agreed, "Alright, I’ll go find an umbrella and then we’ll go buy alcohol."
After saying that, Pu Sangzhi hurried back into the house...
She had never dealt with a situation like Ye Xi’s before, and with only her at home, it could be stated that she felt quite helpless.
Pu Sangzhi thought, if Huo Feng were here right now, he would definitely know how to handle this situation...
He even said he’d accompany Brother Ye Xi for a drink...
"Sigh..."
Pu Sangzhi sighed as she searched for an umbrella at home.
Ransacking through the house for a while, she finally found an umbrella behind the door!
She quickly grabbed the umbrella and rushed out...
Yet, Ye Xi was no longer in the rain...
"Brother Ye Xi!" Pu Sangzhi shouted worriedly.
