What to do if you are too paranoid

The man in the video narrowed his eyes slightly, and his originally comfortable sitting posture suddenly became uncomfortable.

He leaned forward, trying to get closer to the person on the screen.

But this action was in vain, the lights in the kitchen were turned off by Yu Duo, only the light from the living room fell in from the door, Yu Duo's face was still blurred in the video.

"A lot?" Shen Zhen's voice was very soft and cautious.

Yu Duo let out a muffled "Hum", followed by a long silence.

Shen Zhen remained silent. He was not with Yu Duo now, so he could only wait for Yu Duo to deal with all his emotions.

Yu Duo heard Shen Zhen's gentle and long breathing on the phone, and his suddenly depressed mood was inexplicably healed.

After a few minutes, Yu Duo finally calmed down his emotions. He stood up on his knees and turned on the kitchen switch.

After doing this, he unconsciously tightened his five fingers holding the phone, feeling a little embarrassed to look at the person on the phone screen.

So humiliating.

Yu Duo thought to himself, it's just that he and Shen Zhen haven't seen each other for a few hours.

When Shen Zhen saw Yu Duo under the light, his heart that was hanging in the air finally fell.

He saw Yu Duo's surroundings clearly, and took the initiative to find a topic, "Why are you in the kitchen?"

"Hungry." Yu Duo rubbed his belly, remembering the biscuits that Bai Yucheng took away before leaving, and pursed his lower lip, "The biscuits were all eaten this afternoon."

Shen Zhen glanced at his watch and said, "I'm on the high-speed rail now, and I still have an hour to get home."

Yu Duo nodded and said, "I'm actually preparing dinner."

But he is not good at these, and the things he makes are barely edible, just enough to fill his stomach.

"Then don't do it." Shen Zhen said, "Go sit down on the sofa in the living room now, and do something to pass the time. I ordered takeaway for you, and you will be home in about 10 minutes."

Following Shen Zhen's guidance, Yu Duo came to the sofa, found his favorite place to lean against and sat down.

Yu Duo asked him: "Are you still busy?"

There was still a notebook in front of Shen Zhen, and there were several documents in it, but they couldn't be seen from Yu Duo's perspective.

Shen Zhen saved the file, closed the notebook, and said, "I'm not busy."

Sitting beside him, Tan Jingxi took off the blindfold and glanced at Shen Zhen's phone screen.

Seeing a familiar face, Tan Jingxi put on the blindfold again, retracted into the soft chair, and plugged the earphones in her ears.

Yu Duo leaned on the sofa, stared at the person on the screen, and was quiet for a few seconds, then he asked softly, "Can you chat with me for a while?"

"Okay." Shen Zhen saw that Yu Duo changed into a comfortable posture and looked at him quietly. His obedient and quiet appearance made him feel a little itchy.

He thought of what he cared about during the day, and said, "Xia Xiaojie saw you in the gymnasium today."

"Huh?" Yu Duo recalled his experience in the gymnasium during the day, but he didn't remember meeting Xia Xiaojie.

Shen Zhen raised his eyebrows: "Didn't he go over to say hello to you?"

Yu Duo shook his head: "No."

Shen Zhen nodded, thinking of the head leaning on Yu Duo's shoulder in the photo, dark emotions spread upward from the bottom of his heart.

Yu Duo sat with Bai Yucheng almost all the time during the day, thinking that Bai Yucheng had a relationship with Shen Zhen as a partner, he was a little startled, and couldn't help raising his eyes to look at Shen Zhen's face.

Seeing Shen Zhen's expression, his heartbeat slowed down a beat, and he kept wondering whether Bai Yucheng had exposed his relationship with Shen Zhen, so he couldn't help asking in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

Shen Zhen glanced at Yu Duo, suppressed the growing displeasure in his heart and his suspicions about the unknown person leaning on Yu Duo, and changed the subject: "Do you still remember the last time you went to Ying Chen's engagement banquet, Did I tell you that I planned to discuss a cooperation with the Cheng family?"

Yu Duo avoided thinking about the turmoil at Ying Chen's engagement banquet last time, but he remembered everything Shen Zhen had said to him.

"Remember." Yu Duo propped his chin, looked at the calm Shen Zhen on the screen, and said, "But last time, Cheng's people had something to leave early."

Yu Ya also told him after the banquet that Cheng Xiangqian answered the phone during the banquet. He didn't know what was urgent, Cheng Qianqian bid farewell to the banquet host and hurried back to Haishi overnight.

Shen Zhen said: "I went to Haishi this time to discuss cooperation with Cheng."

Yu Duo asked concerned: "Is everything going well?"

"It didn't go well." Shen Zhen said, "The one I met today was Cheng Xing. He and Cheng Qianqian had many differences in their views. If we met Cheng Qianqian today, we would probably be able to negotiate a successful cooperation."

Yu Duo let out an "oh", thinking that he still had to find a chance for Shen Zhen and Cheng Qianqian to meet.

Shen Zhen stared at the screen, and rubbed the outer edge of the phone with his index finger a few times.

There was one thing he didn't tell Yu Duo. Today, when he went to Cheng's company to meet Cheng Xing, he always felt that Cheng Xing's attitude towards him was very strange, with an imperceptible temptation and hostility.

Moreover, Cheng Yu's refusal attitude was too decisive, and he was not even willing to listen to the specific cooperation conditions he proposed. This kind of resistance attitude made it difficult for Shen Zhen to have doubts and curiosity.

There was a knock on the door through the earphones. Seeing that Yu Duo was still staring at the screen without responding, Shen Zhen reminded in a warm voice: "Someone is knocking on the door."

Yu Duo nodded, got up with his mobile phone, and said to Shen Zhen on the mobile phone: "It should be the delivery."

Walking to the door, Yu Duo put his right hand on the doorknob, and a second before he tried hard, Shen Zhen suddenly reminded him in his phone: "Look at the cat's eyes first."

"Okay." Yu Duo let go of the doorknob, followed Shen Zhen's words and looked out through the cat's eyes.

"Is it takeaway?" Shen Zhen asked.

There was no one in the cat's eyes, Yu Duo looked at it for a few seconds and felt something was wrong.

Seeing his face change slightly, Shen Zhen also realized that it might not be the delivery man who knocked on the door just now.

Shen Zhen asked about the takeaway situation, and soon got a reply from the merchant: The takeaway brother is rushing to deliver the takeaway for you, please wait for a while~

Seeing that Shen Zhen's expression on the phone was even more serious than his own, Yu Duo said, "Maybe I made a mistake."

Shen Zhen's expression became serious, and he said to Yu Duo, "Don't open the door for now, and don't take the takeaway."

On Shen Zhen's mobile phone, the arrival reminder on the high-speed rail sounded. Shen Zhen got up and comforted: "I will be home soon."

Tan Jingxi opened his eyes in a daze, took off the blindfold, and was startled when he saw Shen Zhen's face, "What's wrong?"

He subconsciously looked around to confirm that there was no accident, and then exhaled the breath that was pent up in his throat.

Shen Zhen quickly packed her things, and only had time to leave a sentence: "We'll talk about work tomorrow, I have something to deal with now."

"Okay." Tan Jingxi watched Shen Zhen's back as he walked away quickly, and while packing his things, he said to himself: "I haven't seen you for a few hours, so I shouldn't be so impatient."

There were only a few knocks on the door, and then there was no movement outside the door.

Yu Duo calculated in his mind, and felt that there was plenty of time between now and Shen Zhen's return, so he took out a badminton match from the cabinet in the entrance, and weighed it a few times.

The badminton racket was quite comfortable to use, so Yu Duo put the phone aside, stood quietly in front of the door and waited for the next knock on the door.

He didn't make him wait long, and half a minute later, there was a rush of knocking on the door again.

Yu Duo opened the door, and the delivery man standing outside carrying a large package was startled by his actions.

"What... what's wrong?" The delivery man carefully raised the things in his hand, and took out his mobile phone to call up the order page to prove his innocence: "Don't do anything! I'm just here to deliver a takeaway."

He was surprised to see that the handsome young man standing in the door changed his expression almost like a magic trick.

Yu Duo hid the badminton racket behind his back, showed a shy smile to the delivery man who dared not act rashly, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I just want to go out and play badminton."

The delivery man subconsciously glanced at the dark sky outside the window, and then looked back at Yu Duo's innocent smile, with a little faith in his heart.

... Believe it or not, he is sure that if he hadn't quickly proved his innocence just now, that strong-looking badminton racket would have swung on his head, hitting his head like a badminton!

The delivery man walked away along the corridor with lingering fear, not noticing the man standing in front of a certain door, deliberately turning his back on him, and behaving strangely.

Yu Duo closed the door again, and put the unused badminton racket back into the cabinet as it was.

Putting the takeaway on the table, Yu Duo pulled out a chair and sat down, took a mobile phone and sent a message to a certain number.

After receiving the other party's reply, Yu Duo didn't show any surprise when he saw the specific content of the reply.

Humming softly, Yu Duo unwrapped the takeaway package, and was pleasantly surprised to find that besides the pizza, there was also an exquisitely packaged small cake in the takeaway.

Yu Duo poked the box lightly with his finger, thinking of the "mouse" hiding outside the door, a smile that could even be called joyful appeared on his face.

Ten minutes later, Shen Zhen stood outside and knocked on the door, and his steady voice came into the room through a door panel: "Duo Duo, I'm back."

Yu Duo quickly opened the door from the inside, and when Shen Zhen walked in, he glanced at the dark part of the corridor before quickly closing the door firmly.

"It scared me to death." Yu Duo still had lingering fears about the fact that he almost opened the door, and seeing Shen Zhen couldn't help but confided: "If it wasn't for the senior's reminder, I might have opened the door."

Shen Zhen touched Yu Duo's head which was moving because of excitement, and comforted him: "I'm here, I'm fine."

Yu Duo nodded, rubbing her soft hair against Shen Zhen's palm twice, he pulled Shen Zhen to the dining table: "Come and eat with me."

There was still panic on Yu Duo's face, Shen Zhen didn't think about it, and said, "I'll wash my hands first."

Yu Duo nodded, as if he still wanted to follow Shen Zhen to the bathroom.

Shen Zhen lowered his head and said, "I'll be back soon."

Yu Duo sat on the chair and nodded obediently.

Standing in front of the sink and turning on the faucet, Shen Zhen suddenly thought of how Yu Duo opened the door to take takeaway when he was restless.

He couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, he walked out of the bathroom, and looked at his own eyes eagerly.

Yu Duo's eyes were extraordinarily bright under the newly replaced ceiling light in the living room. When Shen Zhen was distracted for a moment, Yu Duo urged: "Come and sit down."

Sitting next to Yu Duo, Shen Zhen couldn't help thinking in her heart.

Maybe I'm really hungry.

Shen Zhen sat beside her, watching Yu Duo pick up the spoon, and opened her mouth to take a big bite of the cake.

Yu Duo didn't know that the white cream on the cake stuck to the corner of his mouth.The cake was very sweet, but it was far less delicious than Qi Shuyu's.

Yu Duo finished eating bite by bite seriously, and when he looked up, he saw Shen Zhen's gaze on the corner of his mouth.

Yu Duo stretched out the tip of his tongue and licked it twice, showing an embarrassed smile, young and provocative: "Isn't it pretty?"
