She messed with me first

The house is as quiet as ever.

Qi Xi took a shower, took the computer and sat on the bed to read the drawings.

Tang Yuan obediently lay beside her, with a mouse pad with its photo printed on its head.

Every time Qi Xi pressed it, it would make a 'uh' sound in a small voice, sounding aggrieved, which made Qi Xi wonder if his behavior was 'abuse of a dog'.

After so many times, Qi Xi was called out with a guilty conscience.

She stared at Tangyuan's motionless head for a while, then said quietly, "Tangyuan, you were not like this before."

Tangyuan, "uh~"

"...Hmm!" Qi Xi imitated the glutinous rice balls discouragedly, calmed down and continued to look at the picture.

Busy until almost one o'clock in the morning, Qi Xi took off the anti-blue light glasses, rubbed his sore eyes, and began to pack his things and prepare for sleep.

When she took away the mouse pad, the glutinous rice balls that had been stuck on all night immediately jumped into her arms as if they had been 'sealed', begging for a hug.

The sound insulation here is not good, Qi Xi was afraid of disturbing the neighbors, and it was too late, so he didn't play with the glutinous rice balls for too long.

Turning off the light and lying down, sleepiness swept over in an instant.

Qi Xi yawned with difficulty, and took the mobile phone with sleepiness, wanting to make sure there was nothing wrong with the alarm clock that woke up.

The screen lit up, and Qi Xi's foggy eyes flickered and opened completely.

At 9:46 in the evening, Meng Qingrang sent her a WeChat message: [If you don't obey, you will be beaten, remember it next time. 】

At that time, she should have just entered the community.

She is used to setting her mobile phone to ring, and she has been throwing it in her bag after getting off the car at night. She thinks it was noisy in the community when she came in, but she didn't hear it, and then she was busy all the time, so she dragged it until now.

Qi Xi pulled the phone closer, turned up the screen slightly, and thought carefully about the meaning of Meng Qingrang's words.

It means 'you'.

At the moment of separation, Meng Qing made complaints quite obviously.

Qi Xi rubbed her chin from side to side, retracted into the quilt and typed: [Okay.Mr. Meng, you should rest early. 】

She thought that at this point, sending the message would definitely go nowhere, but she didn't expect that before she had time to exit, she saw a message at the top of the dialog box saying 'the other party is typing...'

Soon, Qi Xi received a reply from Meng Qingrang with the sound of a new message: [Haven't slept so late? 】

Qi Xi: [Catch the picture, you haven't slept yet? 】

Meng Qingrang: [Well, there are endless things to do every day. 】

Qi Xi didn't know how to answer the conversation, she didn't know exactly what Meng Qingrang did, and how busy she would be with her work.

After hesitating for a moment, Qi Xi said: 【It's hard work. 】

Meng Qingrang: [It's okay, I'm used to it. 】

Meng Qingrang: [I found the floor plan, how can I send it to you?Or, do you have time on weekends?In the evening, it’s not that the real estate inspection experience will be better. I happen to be free on weekends. If you have enough time, you can come here. 】

Meng Qing made the following message very long, Qi Xi read it twice, and then confirmed the work arrangement before returning to her: [We can do it on weekends. 】

Meng Qingrang: [Okay, then see you on the weekend, go to bed early, good night. 】

Qi Xi: 【Good night. 】

After the brief chat was over, Qi Xi turned off his cell phone and lost the slightest drowsiness.

She and Meng Qingrang hadn't had much communication on the decoration needs before they reached the stage of viewing the house. The pace seems to be a little faster?

The rhythm is fast, and the money is also fast. Isn't this the ideal state for them to beat workers?

Yes, why think so much.

Qi Xi prepared himself mentally, and wrapped the quilt sideways, covering his forehead that felt uncomfortable all night, and fell asleep within a few minutes.

----

When I arrived at the company the next day, Zheng Youling pushed Qi Xi down on the table. She squinted her eyes and moved close to Qi Xi to observe her slight expression, "Tell me, what's the matter with the design fee!"

Qi Xi couldn't bear such a close distance, plus her body was leaning back, her waist was uncomfortable, she pushed Zheng Youling away, pulled the chair and sat down, pretending to be confused with her, "What design fee?"

"Still pretending to be stupid, it's the one you called." Zheng Youling raised his chin and said to the accounting office, "I met the accountant in the elevator this morning, and she said that the payment arrived yesterday."

"Private households are so fast against public households?" Qi Xi said a word, seeing that Zheng Youling couldn't get away with it, and his expression became more and more dangerous, so he had to correct his attitude and said seriously, "Maybe some people just owe it, and they need to use their brains to wake up."

"For example, Yu Hai?" Zheng Youling sat down on Qi Xi's table and asked excitedly, "Tell me, why did you do it and how did you do it? Now I really want to know how to use force to subdue a man. "

Qi Xi didn't dare to compliment Zheng Youling's words, so he tugged at the notebook that was pressed by her and said, "Yesterday I was in a hurry to call and said that I couldn't finish drawing, so are you not in a hurry today?"

"I'll go! If you don't tell me, I'd have forgotten. I have an appointment with the client at 09:30 today." Zheng Youling hurriedly stood up and left.

Qi Xi laughed and leaned over to press the power button.

As soon as the hand touched it, Zheng Youling, who had gone and returned, suddenly patted his shoulder hard, and asked strangely, "Why did you make a patch on your forehead? Are you injured?"

Qi Xi straightened her body and said in a calm tone, "No."

"Then why are you posting this?"

"To ward off evil spirits."

----

In the next few days, Qi Xi had to deal with trivial matters in the market during the day, and worked overtime as usual in the evening to catch up with the pictures. His life was busy and fulfilling.

In a blink of an eye, it's the weekend.

The night before, Qi Xi asked for the address of Meng Qingrang's home in WeChat - Jinyuan. After checking, he found that it was quite convenient, and there was a direct bus at the gate of the community.

The two met at three o'clock in the afternoon.

Guessing that it was about the same time, Qi Xi turned off the computer, patted Tangyuan on the head, and went out the door under its reluctant gaze.

All the way to the green light, the driver master drove the car so hard that he wanted to fly, so that it was just after 02:30 when Qi Xi arrived.

It's respectful to see customers arriving early, and it's impolite to see customers arriving too early, so Qi Xi didn't go in directly, but stood under the awning of the bus station and waited for time.

The rain is still falling, pattering.

A gust of wind blew past, making Qi Xi shiver from the cold.

She wrapped the scarf tightly, hid most of her face inside, and looked at the gray distance with her head.

There is a bus approaching quickly in the rain.

Qi Xi subconsciously took a step back, afraid of being splashed into the stagnant water on the side of the road.

Fortunately, the driver was very gentle in parking.

Qi Xi put her hands around her mouth and watched it leave.

As soon as he turned around, a two to three meter high water curtain came down head-on.

Qi Xi, "..." She avoided the bus, but not the taxi that could turn the Elantra into a racing car.

----

At 55:[-], Qi Xi rang the video doorbell of Meng Qingrang's house.

Soon, there was a short 'thump' from the door, followed by Meng Qingrang's hoarse voice, "The door is open, come up."

Qi Xi pulled the scarf over the stained shirt and said, "Okay."

Meng Qingren lived in a high-end community with one elevator and one household. Qi Xi didn't have to look for it after getting out of the elevator. Looking up, he saw the open door. Looking inside, he couldn't see anyone, only a pair of women's slippers were neatly placed at the door. .

Qi Xi stood at the door hesitating for a few seconds and changed his slippers.

Entering the house, warmth hits my face.

Qi Xi couldn't help shivering.

The discomfort passed, Qi Xi let go of her eyes, and looked for Meng Qingrang in the spacious living room.

The first circle was fruitless, and the eyes flicked over the sofa for the third time, before finally seeing Meng Qingrang who was almost integrated with the light-colored sofa—she was lying on her side on the sofa with her eyes closed, covered with a blanket.The sofa is very spacious, compared to the 'skinny' one, she is a little thinner now that she is still curled up.

Qi Xi didn't approach rashly, but stood far away from Meng Qingrang, and called tentatively, "Mr. Meng."

Meng Qing moved his body and opened his eyes slowly after a few seconds, "Here we come." The voice was hoarse and nasal than what he heard on the monitor.

"Are you having a cold?" Qi Xi asked as he walked over.

Meng Qingrang responded in a low voice, sat up with support, and said to Qi Xi: "Sit whatever you want."

"Yeah." Qi Xi found a seat a little far away and sat down, taking the opportunity to look at Meng Qingrang who was pulling up the blanket.

There was no color on her face, her hair was a bit disheveled, a blanket was wrapped around her shoulders, and she pressed her chin. She could not see the dignity and arrogance before, but... on the contrary, she was very delicate.

That's what it looks like on the surface.

When he raised his eyes and spoke, he was still the amiable Mr. Meng from before.

"What did you do with your body? Was it robbed?" Meng Qingrang asked with a smile.

Qi Xi concealed and pulled the scarf to block, "No, the taxi didn't slow down when passing the waterlogged section."

"Do you remember the license plate number?"

"do not remember."

"The next time something like this happens, call the police directly."

Qi Xi clutched the scarf and said to herself, "You don't have to be so serious." His thoughts were expressed in words, "Okay."

Meng Qing let it be seen through at a glance, and she directly exposed it in a shameless way, "Aren't you tired of pretending?" She asked, smiling, not at all unhappy, which made Qi Xi feel very embarrassed.

You can't blame her for this reaction, the customer is God, how can the server refute God?

Qi Xi didn't say anything in the end, and said to Meng Qingrang's smiling eyes: "Do you want to change the time, and we will make another appointment when you recover from illness?"

"No need." Meng Qingrang lifted the blanket and stood up, leaned over and took a sip from the water glass on the table, then put it down and said to Qi Xi, "Go and wash."

Qi Xi was taken aback for a moment, and instinctively refused after realizing the meaning in Meng Qing's words, "It's okay, no need."

"What's the point? If you're lazy now, you'll be like me tomorrow." Meng Qingrang retorted with a smile, and sneezed cooperatively after speaking, tears came out of his eyes physiologically, and his nasal voice became heavier when he spoke again. "Look, the living example is right in front of your eyes."

Qi Xi didn't know what to say for a while, her eyes were full of Meng Qingrang's helpless smile, and her eyelashes were wet with tears.

"Don't get up yet, want me to pull you?" Meng Qingrang asked with a smile, and moved his hands as he spoke, as if he really wanted to pull Qi Xi.

Seeing this, Qi Xi stood up reflexively.

The movements are relatively fast, as if hiding from something terrible.

To be honest, it would make people look ugly, but Meng Qingrang just chuckled and said with a good temper: "I won't eat you again, why panic?"

Qi Xi, "...Mr. Meng was joking."

"Come with me." Meng Qingrang announced the result without asking Qi Xi's opinion at all.

Qi Xi looked up at the sky, stroked her still damp hair, and followed Meng Qingrang's pace bravely.

"The toiletries are all on the shelf, so you can find what you need by yourself; there are new ones in the bath towel cabinet; I'll bring you a change of clothes later..." Meng Qingrang explained them one by one, and then turned around and asked Qi Xi, " what else?"

Qi Xi shook her head, "It's gone."

"Okay, try the hot water first, and I'll find you a change of clothes."

"Thank you, Mr. Meng."

"fine."

As soon as Meng Qing let go, Qi Xi let out a breath, and stood in the spacious bathroom for a rough observation—it was very large, and all kinds of skin care products were readily available. As for the hot water, there was no need to try it at all. The smart bathroom has a constant water temperature.

Qi Xi had nothing to do, so she leaned quietly against the wall and waited for Meng Qingrang.

After waiting for about 10 minutes, she did not come back.

Qi Xi came out to search suspiciously, and finally found that Meng Qingrang was talking on the phone in a bedroom not far away, and it seemed that it would not end for a while.

Qi Xi thought about it for a while, and decided to make a quick decision. She only needed to clean up her hair. The clothes were already warm enough to dry, and she could wear them.

Qi Xi quickly went back to the bathroom, closed the door, and began to undress.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, Meng Qingrang unilaterally stopped the conversation, "Let's do this for today, I still have something to do, so I won't listen to the process, you just tell me the result after you have dealt with it."

After hanging up the phone, Meng Qingrang took his clothes to find Qi Xi.

Seeing that the bathroom door was closed, Meng Qingrang didn't think much, knocked on it casually, and pulled it open.

Inside, Qi Xi's hand just touched the shower switch.

Suddenly hearing a knock on the door, her heart skipped a beat and she turned her head in surprise.

The four eyes met, and the air was so quiet that the heartbeat gradually became arrogant.

Meng Qingrang still looked unhurried, with a smile on his lips, looked Qi Xi frankly up and down, met her eyes, and praised: "The figure is very good."
