Chapter 387 He is drunk
Chapter 387 He is drunk
Chi Feiwan bit his lower lip tightly, suppressing the bad emotions that surged out of his heart like a tide, and tried to keep his voice steady: "I said I have something to do tomorrow, and I want you to help me look after Xiao Lizi."
If Aunt Wang hadn't suddenly resigned, Chi Feiwan would never have made this phone call that made her feel so troubled.
Of course, Jiang Huaixu would not take the initiative to show goodwill. After all, he had just come out of the study and was still holding back a nameless anger.
"I don't have time. You can handle it yourself." The cold words came, and then the phone was hung up mercilessly.
Chi Feiwan seemed unusually calm, but only she knew that this calmness was just an illusion before the storm.
She held the phone tightly, her knuckles turning slightly white. In fact, she already knew that Jiang Huaixu would not help easily, but deep in her heart she still held a faint hope.
Now, her hope has shattered like a fragile bubble, and she can only helplessly find another way.
Chi Feiwan slowly lowered his eyes and looked at the few contacts on his phone, feeling troubled.
Those names seemed to have lost their warmth in her eyes, as if there was no one on the list that she was willing to negotiate with.
There was a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
Chi Feiwan came to Xiao Lizi's side, quietly gazing at her peaceful sleeping face, her eyes full of tenderness and care. She murmured softly, "What should I do, Xiao Lizi? There is no reliable person behind my mother."
She would never cry in front of her child. She wanted to be a strong support for Little Lizi, but her heart had already been cut by a sharp knife and was bleeding like a river.
Chi Feiwan still didn't learn his lesson. He continued to exhaust himself mentally and constantly blamed himself for his inability to do anything.
Her eyes fell on the contacts on her phone again, and at this moment, a text message from Jiang Huaixu popped up: [I’m not going home.]
Chi Feiwan's eyes dimmed slightly, he could no longer read the message, but a smile appeared on his face.
It’s better not to come back, she said silently in her heart.
Afterwards, Chi Feiwan took his pajamas and slowly walked towards the bathroom. His back looked particularly lonely.
*
It was still the familiar private room, the lighting was still a little dim, and the air was filled with a faint smell of cigarettes and alcohol.
Sitting here is the familiar Xu Yang.
Jiang Huaixu sat there, the wine glass in front of him had been emptied several times, he had drunk a lot of wine.
Now that he no longer has to prepare for pregnancy, he has been becoming more and more indulgent towards himself these days.
He never drank or smoked in front of Chi Feiwan. He didn't want her to see him like this.
Xu Yang has been troubled by blind dates recently. He frowned and said helplessly, "You said that feelings are the most hurtful thing."
Jiang Huaixu raised his head slightly, glanced at him, and said in a flat tone: "You haven't even been in a relationship, where do you get the feelings from?"
Xu Yang sighed, "What's wrong with not dating? I've been thinking about blind dates so much lately that I feel like vomiting.
I'm not familiar with any of those ladies in the circle, but I'm familiar with them to the point where we can insult each other when we meet.
It's pure friendship between us, there's no emotion involved."
Jiang Huaixu smiled and said, "Who told you to be angry with your grandfather and say you would never get married?"
Xu Yang went crazy when he thought about this. He scratched his hair with both hands and said, "I just said it in anger. I never thought that the old man took it seriously."
At this time, the door of the private room was pushed open and a waiter came in and asked if they needed more drinks.
Jiang Huaixu waved his hand, indicating that it was not necessary.
After the waiter left, the room fell silent again. After a while, Xu Yang broke the silence: "Brother Jiang, how are you and sister-in-law doing recently?"
Jiang Huaixu frowned slightly, picked up the wine glass and took another sip, "That's it."
Xu Yang saw that Jiang Huaixu didn't want to talk more, so he stopped asking.
He leaned on the sofa, staring at the ceiling, his thoughts drifting away. "Actually, sometimes I envy you for having a home, a sister-in-law and children.
Unlike me, I was forced to go on blind dates by my family all day long, but I couldn’t find someone I really liked.”
Jiang Huaixu was silent for a moment, then said, "Wouldn't it be nice if you had someone you liked?"
Actually, Xu Yang is quite playful. He has seen all kinds of skirts, so those women are nothing special to him, otherwise he would have been in love before.
The main reason is that it is easy to treat sisters as brothers.
Xu Yang smiled bitterly: "How can I just say I like it?"
Xu Yang envied Jiang Huaixu's happy family, but he didn't know that there were countless quarrels behind it.
The two chatted for a while until late at night, then left the private room.
Jiang Huaixu walked out of the private room. The air outside was a little chilly.
He looked up at the sky, feeling an inexplicable melancholy in his heart.
In the evening, Chi Feiwan was mixing milk powder for Xiao Lizi in the kitchen.
Although taking care of children is a physically demanding task, she has nothing to do and can only enrich herself through busyness.
Chi Feiwan rolled the milk powder in his palm and took it to the living room.
Little Lizi is crying loudly in the stroller now.
She carefully picked up Little Pear, patted her back gently, and put the pacifier to Little Pear's hungry mouth.
Although Little Lizi drank very quickly, the level of milk in the bottle did not decrease significantly.
This is partly related to her premature birth. Because of her premature birth, her body has not yet fully matured and her sucking ability is relatively weak, so she drinks milk more slowly.
The feeding time was very long, but Chi Feiwan didn’t feel tired at all.
Half an hour later, the milk powder was not finished, but little Lizi had fallen into a sound sleep.
Chi Feiwan put the bottle into the kitchen.
Chi Feiwan's cell phone vibrated and several red alerts popped up. They were the alarms from the doorbell at the door.
Chi Feiwan felt doubtful and waved his hands, then walked towards the gate of Qinglan Courtyard.
There was a familiar face at the door. Not long after Chi Feiwan opened the door, there was another person in his arms.
Without even looking at his face, he knew who it was. Chi Feiwan barely supported him and said, "Jiang Huaixu, didn't you say you wouldn't come back..."
Jiang Huaixu's voice was hoarse from being drunk, but also clear-headed: "I was lying to you."
"…Then why did you lie to me?"
"No reason, I just want to."
Chi Feiwan supported him and walked step by step towards the living room, asking as he walked: "Why can't I get in when your face is in the house? And aren't you an administrator..."
Jiang Huaixu was not completely drunk, he just couldn't stand steadily. If he was really drunk, Chi Feiwan might not be able to support him.
Jiang Huaixu leaned on Chi Feiwan, and Chi Feiwan took a lot of effort to get him onto the sofa.
"I'll go get you a glass of water." Chi Feiwan turned around and went to the kitchen to get some water. When he came back, he found that Jiang Huaixu had closed his eyes and fallen asleep.
She sighed helplessly and prepared to help Jiang Huaixu back to the room.
However, just as she tried to lift Jiang Huaixu's arm, Jiang Huaixu suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand.
"Don't go..." Jiang Huaixu murmured.
Chi Feiwan looked at Jiang Huaixu's face and was at a loss for a moment.
Is he really drunk?
Not really. A truly drunk person would never behave like that.
A truly drunk person cannot be lifted up by one person and will vomit all over the floor. Even the most handsome man will end up in a state of disgrace.
"I won't leave." Chi Feiwan said softly, sat down next to Jiang Huaixu, and watched him fall asleep quietly.
Walk away stealthily for a while.
