After the mother was reborn, she was deeply involved in the battle for favor between her sons

Ji Zeqiu hurriedly tried to stop Lin Xu from hanging up the phone, and explained to her anxiously, "It's not what you think! I just met Shen Qingtang at work, and she happened to be drunk during dinner, so I sent her home. Nothing else happened!"

"You're grown up now, and mom understands everything." Lin Xu is now an open-minded parent.

"Don't misunderstand me. I'm going home now!" Ji Zeqiu held the phone, angry and flustered, and shook Shen Qingtang's hand vigorously, "Let go quickly, I'm leaving."

"Shen Qingtang! Even if you vomit on the bed now, I won't care about you." No one can stop him from going home!

"Where's your phone? I'll call your agent."

"Ah, you actually vomited!"

Ji Zeqiu was in chaos and Lin Xu could feel his collapse even through the phone.

Hearing that Ji Zeqiu was really going to leave without mercy, Lin Xu immediately advised: "Don't be in a hurry to leave, stay there and take care of her first."

"How can a man like me take care of her?" Ji Zeqiu was reluctant as he was still thinking about going home to find Lin Xu.

"...I'll go over and take a look." Lin Xu had no choice but to ask him for the address.

Half an hour later, Lin Xu arrived at Shen Qingtang's house.

As soon as I entered the house, I smelled the sour stench of vomit coming from the bedroom.

Lin Xu slapped Ji Zeqiu and glared at him, "You don't even know to pack your things first."

"She vomited all over herself. Do you want me to take off her clothes?" Ji Zeqiu sounded a little aggrieved.

This is indeed not good.

There was no other way, so Lin Xu had to leave Ji Zeqiu in the living room and went into the bedroom to help Shen Qingtang change into pajamas, and then came out with the dirty clothes and sheets.

I was hesitant because it wasn't a good idea to leave such dirty clothes piled up overnight.

Lin Xu was thinking about helping her wash it, so Ji Zeqiu took the clothes from her hands and said, "Let me rub it."

My mother never does any housework at home.

Ji Zeqiu didn't want Lin Xu to do these things, so he took the initiative to take it over.

Lin Xu didn't refuse, and handed the clothes to him, smiling and saying, "Do you know how to wash clothes?"

"I know a lot." Ji Zeqiu looked proud and walked into the bathroom with his chest puffed out, as if he wanted to show her his skills.

When the three siblings were staying at a relative's house, there were no servants to help them with the chores. They always had to carry water and squat on the bathroom floor to rub their dirty clothes themselves.

As for his sister's clothes, he and Ji Tingyang took turns washing them.

It was not until she entered junior high school that she no longer wanted her brother to help her wash clothes.

Ji Zeqiu rubbed the clothes in his hands, and some past memories flashed through his mind.

"Our Ze Qiu is awesome." Lin Xu squatted beside him, and seeing his skillful movements, she touched his head in praise.

Ji Zeqiu's ears suddenly turned red under his messy hair, and he looked shy, "Of course."

The hands that rubbed the clothes became more diligent.

After a moment, he secretly glanced at Lin Xu again, his face a little awkward, hesitant, "Ru, if you have clothes to wash by hand, it's not impossible to give them to me later."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you from now on~"

Ji Zeqiu looked at her dazzling smile, his heart pounding, his face expressionless, but his heart was filled with joy.

He can wash clothes for his mother.

Ji Tingyang has never washed clothes for his mother.

He was the first person to do the laundry for his mother!

Lin Xu watched in the bathroom for a while, then went into the bedroom to take care of Shen Qingtang.

As soon as he entered, he saw her lying on the bed retching. Lin Xu hurriedly helped her up and poured her a glass of water.

Shen Qingtang took her hand and drank the water in the cup.

"Drink slowly, don't be in a hurry." Lin Xu stroked her back and said softly.

Lin Xu's voice was gentle, like a breeze whispering in the ear, slowly soothing Shen Qingtang's restless emotions caused by alcohol.

She raised her eyes, squinted, and tried hard to recognize Lin Xu's figure.

"What's wrong? Do you want another glass of water?" Lin Xu asked and was about to get up to pour some water.

The next moment, Shen Qingtang grabbed his hand and muttered, "Don't go..."

"Okay, I won't leave." Lin Xu sat back and coaxed her to sleep on the bed.

Shen Qingtang nodded, lay back on the bed, and as Lin Xu hummed softly, a warm feeling surged through his heart, and he gradually fell asleep.

At this moment, the screen of the mobile phone on the bedside lit up.

Lin Xu thought it was not good to look at other people’s phones, and just as she was about to turn her head away, she was stunned by the message on it.

The next day.

When Shen Qingtang woke up, it was almost noon.

She walked out of the bedroom, rubbing her messy hair. As soon as she reached the living room, she saw Lin Xu sleeping on the sofa. Shock flashed in her eyes.

She hasn't left yet?

Hearing the noise, Lin Xu's eyelids moved, and he opened his eyes hazily, just in time to meet Shen Qingtang's surprised eyes. He explained to her what happened last night, fearing that he would be mistaken for a thief.

"I remember everything that happened last night. No need to explain." Shen Qingtang was not drunk yet and had no memory loss. "Thank you for taking care of me last night."

She was drunk last night and Lin Xu was the one who stayed by her side to take care of her.

It reminded her of when she was sick as a child, her mother would wait by her bedside with such tenderness and warmth.

For a moment, Shen Qingtang's attitude towards Lin Xu became much friendlier.

She caught a glimpse of the washed shirts and trousers hanging on the balcony and felt even more embarrassed. "You can just keep those clothes. I can wash them myself when I wake up."

"It will stink if you leave it until the next day. I checked it for you and Ji Zeqiu washed it quite clean. Don't worry." Lin Xu said.

Did Ji Zeqiu wash it? !

Shen Qingtang's cheeks flushed red and he stammered, "He, he, how could he..."

Why would I help her wash clothes?!

"He's quite happy about it." Lin Xu said as he washed so diligently last night.

willing?

Shen Qingtang recalled that Ji Zeqiu sent her home last night, carried her upstairs, and even helped her wash clothes.

Could it be that he actually has a crush on me?

Her heart skipped a beat.

At this time.

The door of the apartment opened and Ji Zeqiu walked in carrying two large bags.

Shen Qingtang was puzzled when he heard Lin Xu ask, "What did you buy?"

"Lunch."

"Did you buy it especially for me? Why are you so thoughtful?"

Lin Xu was hungry and stared at his two large bags of lunch boxes with shining eyes.

Ji Zeqiu hesitated, "Well, I didn't buy it specially. I just came over after work and saw someone selling food downstairs."

The words "Songhelou" were written on the takeaway bag. This is a large restaurant that only accepts VIP guests, so how could it be possible that someone would just happen to be selling it downstairs?

Lin Xu smiled helplessly, knowing that he was a hypocritical person.

She walked over, opened the bag and took a look. "Wow, these are all my favorite foods."

Ji Zeqiu saw the happiness in her eyes, and the corners of his lips slightly raised, while he said stubbornly: "I just bought it casually."

Seeing Shen Qingtang standing there blankly, Lin Xu quickly pulled her over and said, "Come and eat with us. I have something to tell you after we finish eating."

Shen Qingtang was puzzled. They seemed to have nothing in common?

Did she want me to stop pestering Ji Zeqiu? !
