Chapter 73 Bai Ke's Decision
Bai Ke was not in the mood today, he accidentally cut his hands while chopping vegetables, he was scalded while cooking, and he forgot to put salt, and finally the vegetables were burnt, so Bai Ke hurriedly turned off the fire.
Sheng Yanyi also smelled the smell, and when he walked to the kitchen, he saw Bai Ke standing there in a daze.
"Xiao Ke, if you can't do it today, don't do it."
"Okay." Bai Ke walked out of the room unsteadily, without looking at Sheng Yanyi.
Sheng Yanyi looked at his back, feeling something was wrong, suddenly, the blood on the ground caught his attention.
"Xiao Ke, wait a minute."
Bai Ke stopped in his tracks.
Sheng Yanyi walked over, picked up his hand, and found that a cut was made on it, and blood was still oozing out.
His heart suddenly shrank, Sheng Yanyi couldn't help but pull him to the sofa and sit down.
Bai Ke, who was out of state, seemed to be unable to feel the pain, his eyes were fixed on one place.
After disinfecting him, Sheng Yanyi's eyes were dark and cloudy.
"Bai Ke, you have a bit of a brain. For Qu Zonghe, you have to make yourself look like this. It will only make people more disgusted."
Rare emotions were exposed, and the words that let him stab at Bai Ke's bruised heart with a knife, and the knife saw blood.
As soon as the words came out, Sheng Yanyi was stunned.
He didn't know why he had such a big reaction, and his intention was not to belittle Bai Ke.
Bai Ke's was already like a dilapidated clock, his eyes drooped when he heard these words, and he showed a pale smile.
"Yes." He was not good at all.
Bai Ke had never realized it so clearly at any moment.
Sheng Yanyi panicked inexplicably, such Bai Ke was too alienated, as if he was about to leave in a second.
"Xiao Ke, I..." He wanted to explain, but Bai Ke didn't want to listen anymore.
"Brother Yan Yi, stop talking, Bai Ke knows, Bai Ke is not good at all, that's why my husband doesn't want me."
With a "bang", Sheng Yanyi stood up and kicked the table.
Qu Zonghe, Qu Zonghe, him again, Bai Ke, Bai Ke, all want to die and live because of him.
Angrily, he kicked again, the madness in his eyes was clearly shown in Bai Ke's eyes through the lens.
"Since you're thinking about him, go away, go to him."
He wasn't afraid anymore, not afraid at all, Bai Ke talked to Sheng Yanyi calmly, his clear and clean eyes made it impossible to see what he was thinking at this time.
Sheng Yanyi saw his out-of-control reflection in those eyes, and left in a rage.
His emotions have been out of control several times under the influence of the fool, and this feeling that is beyond his control makes him feel annoyed.
Bai Ke watched helplessly as Yan Yi's brother went upstairs angrily, then got up and went to the kitchen to continue the unfinished task just now.
This time he did it in an orderly manner, because he found that his mind became very clear.
After a while, after dinner was ready, Bai Ke went upstairs, intending to ask Brother Yan Yi to come down for dinner.
Just as he was about to knock on the door, the voice from inside made him stop what he was doing.
"I did take him to the mall yesterday, but the cancellation of his wedding with Qu Zonghe has nothing to do with me. I took him in because of his pity."
He didn't know what was said over there, Sheng Yanyi sneered.
"It's just a fool, what can I think about him, just see him pity and give him alms."
…………
After a pause, Sheng Yanyi said impatiently: "That's it, hang up."
After hanging up the phone, Sheng Yanyi sat down, took out a cigarette skillfully and smoked, the nicotine made the depressed heart even more depressed.
"Dong dong." There was a knock on the door.
"Enter."
Bai Ke came in and saw Brother Yanyi's face in the smog, he was in a daze before slowly opening the door: "Brother Yanyi, the meal is ready."
Sheng Yanyi frowned, and looked at his hand habitually: "Didn't I tell you not to do it?"
"It doesn't matter." Bai Ke lowered his eyes, and his tone was as light as if he was talking about an ordinary thing.
Sheng Yanyi put out the cigarette, followed Bai Ke downstairs, looked at the three dishes on the table, his expression froze.
Bai Ke is too good at pleasing people.
It was like a balloon that was inflated to the extreme and was about to explode. A hole was accidentally opened, and it could never blow up again.
Sheng Yanyi sat down, his expression relaxed a little, seeing that Bai Ke had been standing, he casually beckoned him to sit down too.
Bai Ke shook his head: "The soup is not ready yet."
"It's okay if you don't look at it, just sit down and eat first."
Bai Ke was very stubborn and insisted on going to the kitchen to watch the soup he was making.
Sheng Yanyi didn't want the relationship they had just eased to become tense again, so he followed him.
After he ate for quite a while, Bai Ke hadn't come out of the kitchen yet, so Sheng Yanyi put down his chopsticks and went to the kitchen in doubt.
The soup was still gurgling, but Bai Ke stood aside and stared intently.
"Are you alright?" Sheng Yanyi asked.
Hearing the voice, Bai Ke glanced sideways at him and continued to stare at his soup.
"No."
"I'll cook it tomorrow." Sheng Yanyi discussed with him.
Confession expression is light, the tone is also light, people can not hear the emotions: "It's okay."
Sheng Yanyi didn't know why Bai Ke had to guard the pot of soup today, but now he didn't dare to speak harshly, so he had to compromise again.
After Bai Ke cooked the soup, Sheng Yanyi had already finished his meal.
He filled a bowl and took it out after it was no longer so hot: "Brother Yanyi, try it."
His eyes were bright and full of anticipation.
Sheng Yanyi's heart softened, so Bai Ke is obedient when his eyes are full of him.
Sheng Yanyi took a sip, perhaps because he was in a happy mood, he actually felt that the drink was even better than the five-star hotel outside, showing a satisfied expression, and praised without hesitation.
"It's delicious, Xiao Ke is very powerful."
Bai Ke pursed her lips and showed her first smile tonight.
Seeing him smile, Sheng Yanyi walked over and patted his head, and said in a gentle manner: "Eat some food when the soup is finished, and go to rest after eating."
Sure enough, he is still a child, a compliment can make him happy.
Sheng Yanyi was infected, and his mood also relaxed, and he completely lost the vicious look that just got out of control.
If he looked carefully, he could find that Bai Ke's eyes had become slack and he was immersed in his own world.
After Bai Ke finished his meal, he washed the dishes obediently as usual, and when he was done, the hour hand had already pointed to ten o'clock.
"Okay, go to sleep." Sheng Yanyi urged.
Bai Ke returned to her room, lying on the bed with her eyes still wide open.
He thought about a lot of things, he thought about the time when he was in the orphanage, when he first met brother Yan Yi, and when he was with her husband.
These things came to his mind one after another, so that he didn't feel sleepy at all.
In this way, at three o'clock in the morning, Bai Ke blinked his sour eyes, and a clear tear flowed across.
It's time for him to sleep.
The next day, Bai Ke didn't feel tired at all, and got up early to make breakfast for Brother Yan Yi.
Seeing the dark circles under Bai Ke's eyes, Sheng Yanyi squinted his eyes unhappy and asked, "Did Xiao Ke sleep well last night?"
Bai Ke shook his head: "Going to bed late."
Neither of them wanted to recall what happened last night, so the topic came to an abrupt end.
After dinner, Sheng Yanyi was going to the company, and Bai Ke went to see him off.
"Brother Yan Yi, goodbye."
Bai Ke's voice sounded like grandma's, Sheng Yanyi turned his head and glanced at him: "Go back."
Bai Ke didn't move his feet, Sheng Yanyi got into the car, and Bai Ke said again, "Brother Yanyi, goodbye."
Sheng Yanyi felt that Bai Ke was extremely clingy today, so he smiled and said.
"Goodbye, Xiao Ke."
Watching the car go away, the corners of Bai Ke's raised mouth slowly retracted.
Bai Ke started to clean the villa, wiping every corner clean and spotless.
After cleaning, Bai Ke went back to the room and sat at the desk, took out a piece of paper and wrote something seriously.
A page of paper was full of densely packed words, and there was still a little to be written. Bai Ke took out another piece of paper and picked up a pen to write again.
Bai Ke stopped writing after writing two full pages, and carefully put it away after writing.
Sheng Yanyi came back from get off work at night, and on the way he felt a trace of anticipation that he didn't realize.
Bai Ke should prepare dinner and wait for him.
Back at the villa, looking at the pitch-black room, as if signaling something, Sheng Yanyi had an ominous premonition in his heart.
Before he had time to drive the car into the garage, Sheng Yanyi hurriedly got out of the car and strode forward.
Turning on the light, the room lit up instantly, Sheng Yanyi glanced around, but went upstairs after seeing no sign of Bai Ke, and saw no one in Bai Ke's room, but a piece of paper was pressed on the table.
Sheng Yanyi walked over, picked it up and looked at it, his pupils shrank when he saw the words on it clearly.
Most of the above were Bai Ke's words thanking him for taking him in. After reading it with a frown, Sheng Yanyi took out his mobile phone and dialed Bai Ke's number without thinking.
Bai Ke's phone kept saying that it was turned off, Sheng Yanyi hung up and called several times, the mechanical female voice made Sheng Yanyi curse in a low voice.
It's time to learn smart.
Sheng Yanyi quickly ordered someone to call out the nearby surveillance cameras, and after a while, the surveillance cameras were in his hands.
He looked at Bai Ke with a cold face, pulling the suitcase and walking straight ahead without the slightest hesitation.
Thinking of Bai Ke's abnormality this morning, Sheng Yanyi knew that he had planned to leave for a long time.
Sheng Yanyi got up and was about to go out to look for it, but suddenly he thought that Bai Ke was looking for Qu Zonghe again.
Sitting back on the sofa, Sheng Yanyi closed his eyes and opened them again, his eyes seemed poisoned.
Sure enough, you still went to find Qu Zonghe, why did you still go to him.
Bai Ke, you let me down so much.
The pale light shone in Sheng Yanyi's black eyes, reflecting a frightening shadow of prey.
Ever since Bai Ke left, Sheng Yanyi's behavior suddenly became perverse and ruthless.
On the surface, he still looks gentle and jade-like, but all the things he does push people to a dead end.
Many small businesses were swallowed up by him overnight, contrary to his gentle image in the past, and made some smaller businesses feel uneasy.
Qu Zonghe also noticed Sheng Yanyi's big move. It is true that he is obstructing Qu's property everywhere now, whether it is secretly or publicly.
As if he came prepared, this time, he intercepted another project of Qu's.
Qu Zonghe personally asked his assistant to invite him to have a conversation with him, Sheng Yanyi answered very readily, and the two met in a cafe.
Chapter 74 Looking for a job, picking up a kitten
When the two met, unlike Qu Zonghe's serious face, there was always a faint smile on the corner of Sheng Yanyi's mouth.
"Long time no see." His tone was relaxed, but it really seemed like a greeting between old friends.
Qu Zonghe saw through his disguise at a glance, and didn't want to waste any time talking with him, so he warned coldly.
"Qu Shi is not something you can move."
Sheng Yanyi seemed to have heard a big joke, he sneered and tapped his fingers on the table regularly: "Zong He, you are too arrogant."
In the past, he didn't have much ambition in the business, he just wanted to deal with the old man, but now it's different.
He just wanted to see who was more powerful, he or Qu Zonghe.
"By the way, Xiao Ke is with me. I take good care of him. It's a pity..."
It's a pity that he is not good at all, Sheng Yanyi seemed to think of it inadvertently, and casually glanced at Qu Zonghe's expression.
Now that he's back by your side, I don't want to make it easier for you, Sheng Yanyi held a kind of decisive ruthlessness.
Qu Zonghe was not affected by him, even his expression didn't change a bit.
Only the hands under the table were tightly clenched, restraining the monstrous anger.
He had guessed it a long time ago, saying it from Sheng Yanyi's mouth was nothing more than putting his relationship with Bai Ke to death again.
"Suicide."
After Qu Zonghe said this with a sullen face, he got up and left.
Sheng Yanyi stared at the direction where Qu Zonghe was leaving, and raised his hand to support the frame.
"Self-destruction?" Sheng Yanyi repeated these words in his mouth, and suddenly smiled, the good show had just begun.
This conversation can be regarded as putting the discord between them on the bright side.
Recently, people discovered that the Qu family and the Sheng family were at odds. Although the Sheng family was a little bit lower now, under Sheng Yanyi's drastic development, it became more and more vigorous.
Qu Zonghe remained calm in the face of danger, he didn't care about Sheng's provocation, he was waiting, waiting for an opportunity, to deal Sheng a fatal blow.
Bai Ke didn't know that the struggle between the Qu family and the Sheng family had caused an uproar. He lived in a dilapidated small house and was worried about how to make money.
Bai Ke walked for a long time, from dawn to dusk. He found the house on a leaflet.
Because the price is low, the location is remote, and you can rent it without an ID card, Bai Ke spent most of the money that Uncle Xu gave him on renting the house.
He still has three cards, one is from brother Yan Yi, one is from her husband, and one is from her aunt. Bai doesn't know how much money is in it, and he doesn't want to know.
After last night, Bai Ke seemed to be woken up by a basin of cold water. He was sober. His life was supposed to be like this. He stole those good times.
He turned off his phone and said goodbye to his past.
No husband, no brother, they don't belong to him. Now that things are back on track, Bai Ke's heart is finally at ease.
Because the house was very cheap and there was still a moldy smell inside, Bai Ke cleaned up the house on the first day.
The next day, Bai Ke put all his things in the house. When he was short of daily necessities, he went to the market to buy them. After a busy day, looking at the small but cozy house, Bai Ke smiled knowingly.
This is his home.
With her own small family, Bai Ke has very little money left: "I'm going to find a job tomorrow." Bai Ke was thinking.
The next day, Bai Ke got up early and ate the steamed buns he bought yesterday. The steamed stuffed buns were already cold, but they were still delicious. After eating, Bai Ke walked out of the room.
The weather was still a bit chilly in the morning, Bai Ke was wearing a pure white short sleeve, and the breeze blew in, making him shiver.
Bai Ke pursed her lips and folded her arms, looking around for the leaflets that recruited people to work.
Maybe it's because this place is too remote, there are very few positions for recruitment, Bai Ke walked around and only saw a few leaflets.
But it's all white, he can't do it, he sighed in disappointment, and had to search again.
At noon, under the scorching sun, there were few pedestrians on the road, only Bai Ke kept looking for work under the sun, regardless of the fine sweat on his forehead.
It's a pity that at the end of the day, Bai Ke still got nothing.
Bai Ke seemed to be smart just once, but he was still called a fool because he found out that he knew nothing.
Back home, Bai Ke was a little discouraged, he was so stupid, it would be great if he was smarter.
He went into the bathroom sullenly, and Bai could wash off the sweat stains on his face with cold water, but he didn't expect that as soon as he touched the cold water, he would feel a burning pain on his face.
He looked up at himself in the mirror, and found that it was glowing red, which looked very scary.
What's going on here?Bai Ke was startled, thinking that he had some kind of disease.
He leaned closer to the mirror, stretched out his hand to touch it, and didn't feel anything else, except for the burning pain. So, it should be sunburned?
Bai is not sure, because he has never seen it before.
Looking at his body again, he found that there was also a red patch on his arm. Bai Ke washed it with water and found that the red trace was still there.
Fortunately, he was sunburned, and it was a false alarm. Bai Ke was not afraid of pain, and what he was even more afraid of was the need to spend money.
After taking a simple bath, Bai Ke lay on the bed, the stuffy air made him a little uncomfortable, his body seemed to be sticky again after taking a bath, and mosquitoes kept circling and buzzing in the sky.
Bai Ke turned over and continued to plan for tomorrow.
He decided to muster up the courage to ask if they are hiring tomorrow. The jobs he was looking for today were all read on the leaflets. If he took the initiative to ask people, he might have a job.
The next day, Bai Ke cooked two eggs for himself, and after eating, he mustered up the courage to go out.
The first one was a small restaurant. Bai Ke stood in the distance and observed for a long time, until his legs became numb, so he tentatively walked forward.
The business over there was not good, and there were almost no one in the store. Seeing someone coming, I casually asked what I wanted to eat.
Bai Ke twisted the hem of his clothes to cheer himself up.
"I, I'm here to find a job."
The man looked away from the phone and said impatiently: "No need." The business in the store has been bad recently, and he couldn't afford to support the extra employees.
Bai Ke heard that he didn't need it, so he left leisurely and found a second one.
This is also a restaurant, and Bai Ke knows that he doesn't know anything, and he can help people clean and wash dishes when he goes to a restaurant, so he always looks for restaurants.
It's a pity that Bai Ke was rejected again this time because he looked too small, and his skin was tender, so he couldn't do heavy work at first sight.
Bai Ke still wanted to prove himself, but unfortunately the man didn't give him a chance and just let him go.
Being rejected one after another, Bai Ke felt a little frustrated, and walked into the next house without hope.
This store is a jewelry store. Seeing Bai Ke's exquisite little face, he immediately greeted him: "You are looking for a job, right?"
"Yes, I, I'm here to look for a job."
The man circled around Bai Ke: "Exactly, we need a shopping guide here, are your communication skills okay?"
"I, I..." Bai Ke hesitated, not knowing how to answer her.
Since leaving the life there, Bai has not changed. He has become more inferior and timid.
He blames everything on himself, a fool, it is only natural that he is not liked by others.
He thought, if they found out that he was so stupid, they would definitely not want him.
Bai Ke received two fatal blows, so that all the bravery built up was restored overnight.
Cowardly is what he was at first, and he hasn't improved at all.
Bai Keda was breathing rapidly, and he felt terrified at the thought of dealing with people.
He doesn't know what's wrong with him, he can't do it, he can't communicate with others.
"I'm sorry." Bai Ke fled in a panic after speaking.
"I'm afraid this person is not a fool. He wants to ask about work but he doesn't answer. It's a good thing he has such a good-looking face." Some words that were originally innocent, but pierced Bai Ke's heart fiercely.
Back home, Bai Ke was covered in sweat from the sun, but his heart was cold.
I couldn't help but covered my face and cried.
He is so useless.
After this time, Bai Ke is even more afraid of going out, unless it is absolutely necessary, such as going out to buy vegetables, and hides at home at other times.
On this day, Bai Ke went out late in the evening to buy vegetables as before, so his savings were low, and all he bought were vegetarian dishes.
When he came back and passed by a trash can, Bai Ke seemed to hear a faint cry.
Bai Ke stopped, held his breath and listened carefully.
"Meow, meow..." A faint cry came from the trash can.
He walked over suspiciously, and the little guy in the trash can seemed to sense something and screamed a little louder.
It sounded like a cat meowing. Looking at the stinking trash can, Bai Ke walked forward without hesitation.
Feeling a soft feeling in a knotted black bag, he lifted him out and tore it apart with great effort.
As expected, there was a kitten hidden in the bag, its eyes hadn't opened yet, and it smelled the smell of people, and it was struggling to crawl towards Bai Ke with its soft limbs.
Bai Ke's heart softened, and she picked him up and hugged him in her arms.
The little milk cat was a little smaller than Bai Ke's slap, maybe it was tired of screaming, so it stopped barking weakly after a couple of weak calls in his palm.
Bai Ke held it carefully, her heart softened into a puddle of water.
This little kitten looked like it had been deliberately discarded. How could such a small cat survive.
He was also abandoned by others, thinking of himself, Bai Ke had an idea.
He wants to raise this kitten.
"Little cat, little cat, follow me from now on." Bai Ke caressed its little head with tenderness in its eyes.
The kitten responded with a whimper, and touched its palm with its head.
Because it is the first time to raise a kitten, Bai Ke doesn't know how to raise it. It is so small that it should drink milk.
Bai Ke carried the kitten to the supermarket, and went around to find a place that sold kitten milk powder.
