Home/ We’re All Especially Sympathizing With That Man/ Chapter 27
Yuan Zhan, who couldn’t stop laughing, was driven out of the kitchen by Yan Jingxi.
Yuan Zhan was shut out of the kitchen, but he still couldn’t stop laughing. However, driving him out worked, and he stopped laughing after a while.
Yan Jingxi was seriously cooking in the kitchen. After being ruthlessly ridiculed by Yuan Zhan, he looked at Bai Yueguang’s text messages, which didn’t seem so natural anymore, while Yuan Zhan’s laughter still echoed in his mind. As he looked at it, he himself thought it’s a bit funny, and almost cut his finger in the process of laughing.
Yuan Zhan didn’t eat breakfast in the morning, and his stomach was rumbling with hunger, so he poked his head inside the kitchen from time to time. When Yan Jingxi came out with dishes, he unconsciously prepared the bowls and chopsticks, and filled the rice, waiting for Yan Jingxi to bring the last dish to the dinner table.
When Yuan Zhan was about seventy percent full, he asked Yan Jingxi, “Sister Liya will come to the company at noon tomorrow to visit, do you have any other arrangements?”
Yuan Zhan doesn’t mind messing around with Yan Jingxi when he’s at home, but when it comes to work, he still has a sense of propriety and tries his best to manage his time as much as possible.
“I have an appointment for a meal at noon tomorrow, so I can’t accompany you to eat.” Yan Jingxi told Yuan Zhan casually, without feeling that his schedule was being peeked at.
That’s a good thing, Yuan Zhan thought to himself. Now he will have more opportunities to manipulate the first meeting between Peng Liya and Bai Yueguang.
He believes that Bai Yueguang as the male protagonist and Peng Liya as the female supporting role in the book are born to be incompatible with each other.
“Okay.” After a pause, Yuan Zhan felt that he was too cold, so he added, “Peng Liya may actually be coming to the company to look for you.”
Yan Jingxi: “She has thoughts about me, and I will avoid her if I can, so as not to make everyone lose face in the end.”
Yuan Zhan shrugged: “Whatever.”
Yan Jingxi suddenly raised his voice a little and said: “You seem to be quite concerned about her affairs.”
Yuan Zhan smiled slightly: “Then why don’t you take her around the company tomorrow yourself? Anyway, she is not coming to look for me, I will just show her around for your sake.”
Yan Jingxi: “…Well, you are saving me from unnecessary trouble.”
It was only today that Yuan Zhan realized that Yan Jingxi was actually quite afraid of trouble.
After making sure that Yan Jingxi will not appear out of nowhere tomorrow to sabotage his plan, Yuan Zhan felt quite relieved, the rest doesn’t matter.
After lunch, looking at the fierce sunlight outside, the plants were all withered, not to mention whether going out would cause sunburn to people.
Yuan Zhan decided to go back to his room for a nap after playing a game.
His current life is actually quite comfortable, except for the task of plotting against Yan Jingxi.
Yan Jingxi has no plans to go out in the afternoon, as the temperature outside is too high, and outdoor activities are not suitable.
It’s also good to handle work from home with air-conditioning, and make afternoon tea in your spare time.
After Yuan Zhan went upstairs to take a nap, Yan Jingxi politely replied to Bai Yueguang’s message, saying that he had to deal with work this afternoon and could not accompany him to watch a movie.
Bai Yueguang’s response looked very well-behaved: “Okay, then work hard.”
It wasn’t clear if Yan Jingxi was influenced by Yuan Zhan, but Bai Yueguang’s tone sounded similar to Yuan Zhan’s tone from the noon, causing him to broke out in a cold sweat, he rubbed his arms and poured a cup of hot tea for himself, looking shocked.
On the other hand, Bai Yueguang was a little angry after being rejected by Yan Jingxi. However, he can’t disturb the other party’s work, and he also can’t go to his house to accompany him. If Yan Jingxi lived in another apartment, he would still be able to go and have a look, but he is currently living with Yuan Zhan, so he has no chance to go there even if he wants to.
Or perhaps it should be said that Bai Yueguang doesn’t dare to enter the door, as he always felt that he couldn’t lift his head up in front of Yuan Zhan, always feeling suppressed by his aura.
The aura of President Yuan is too strong, and he doesn’t want to confront him. Although Bai Yueguang is not afraid, he also has his weaknesses, and “homewrecker” is a word that he doesn’t want to touch or be associated with.
Bai Yueguang still remembers what Yuan Zhan had said to him before, so he doesn’t want to act rashly.
Now he only dares to chat with Yan Jingxi on WeChat. Even though they are in the same company, he no longer directly goes to look for the other party like before. After all, he has been given a booster.
Holding back his breath, Bai Yueguang agreed to Guan Shujing’s invitation to go shopping with him, and the other party used the excuse of buying a birthday present for Guan Shuyu and asked him out.
Walking on the street under the sun, Bai Yue, who had hardly walked for less than half an hour, felt so hot that he suffered from heatstroke, so his dinner date with Guan Shujing also failed. After returning home from the hospital, he ordered takeaway.
Guan Shujing wasn’t as versatile as Yan Jingxi, he can’t even fry an egg, let alone cook porridge for him, causing Bai Yueguang to believe that Yan Jingxi was very good. If he hadn’t gone out with Guan Shujing outside, he would have already called or sent a WeChat message to Yan Jingxi to cry about being sick.
However, he can’t let Yan Jingxi know that he went out with Guan Shujing.
Bai Yueguang was reluctantly drinking some takeaway porridge, but Yuan Zhan was eating corn porridge cooked by Yan Jingxi, along with simple and delicious potato cakes. President Yan’s craftsmanship is really good, and Yuan Zhan didn’t know how Yan Jingxi cooked it. He only knows how to look at it and drool, it smelled so good.
What a waste it is to give such a profitable and dedicated chef to Bai Yueguang.
The original owner was also unlucky, it is estimated that he had never eaten the food meticulously cooked by Yan Jingxi, it’s really delicious.
As a transmigrator, it’s not a waste of time to be able to taste the cooking skills of the protagonist’s target.
The temperature at night was lower compared to the daytime, and Yuan Zhan could finally go outside for some fresh air.
Sitting on the lounge chair placed in the small courtyard, Yuan Zhan started playing games.
When Yan Jingxi came out with the freshly squeezed fruit juice, he heard Yuan Zhan exclaim: “Fuck, take his head off, what are you running for? A bunch of losers who are afraid of death!”
Playing games is also a way to relax?
Yan Jingxi: “You’ve been addicted to games all day long, what’s so fun about it?”
Yuan Zhan responded without raising his head: “Of course games are fun, it’s better than fighting with people every day.”
As he thought of something, Yuan Zhan looked at Yan Jingxi meaningfully: “Mr. Yan, why don’t you download a game and give it a try?”
Yan Jingxi put the juice on the table and said, “Okay.”
If you want to be a qualified leader, you need to have the courage to try new things before you can make the right decisions.
At home, the wifi signal was very good. After downloading the mobile game recommended by Yuan Zhan in ten seconds, it took him a while to fill out the information for account registration. Yan Jingxi didn’t use his own name, but instead used Assistant Chen’s information.
Assistant Chen, who was relaxing in his two-person world at home, was asked by the boss for his ID number to register for a game, causing him to have a dumbfounded expression on his face.
Assistant Chen cleared his throat and asked: “Boss Yan, which game do you want to register for?”
Yan Jingxi reported the name of the game: “Can your ID be used? I can’t ask anyone else.”
Assistant Chen: “Sure, I will send you my ID number, and I will send the verification code to your WeChat when I receive it.”
Mr. Yan replied lightly: “Hmm.”
After hanging up the boss’s call, Assistant Chen patted his chest, and told his partner beside him that his boss wanted to use his ID card and mobile phone to register for the game.
Assistant Chen’s partner: “I didn’t expect that your boss would be interested in playing games, which is quite unconventional. From what you told me, I always used to think that he is cold and aloof, well he seemed quite different today.”
Assistant Chen: “I think so too.”
Assistant Chen has previously mentioned a few words about Yan Jingxi to his partner, but remained tight-lipped other times. This incident of playing games really surprised him. Who is President Yan playing with, that person named Bai Yueguang? It can’t be Mr. Yuan, right?
Well, I hope President Yan doesn’t get addicted to games and indulges too much, otherwise, it would be too irresponsible.
Assistant Chen certainly doesn’t have any control over Yan Jingxi’s preferences, he only needs to follow his boss’ orders.
Yuan Zhan guided Yan Jingxi step by step to play the competitive game. He couldn’t help but think that Yan Jingxi is worthy of being an all-rounder in the novel. After only two games, he understood the game’s mechanics.
With Yuan Zhan’s meticulous explanation and guidance, Yan Jingxi’s skills became more and more exquisite. In an hour, he could already play on par with Yuan Zhan, and the two of them beat their opponents together.
However, Yuan Zhan wiped the sweat from his forehead under pressure, and picked up the juice, pouring it down his throat. His bold and natural way of drinking made Yan Jingxi stunned. No matter who it was, they always ate and drank politely in front of him. But Yuan Zhan suddenly became a bold and unrestrained person.
Yuan Zhan, who was seen as bold and unrestrained, and showed his true side, pretended not to know anything.
Yan Jingxi stared at his glass again, and decided to be honest: “You drank my juice.”
Yuan Zhan: “What’s wrong with drinking your juice, are you sick?”
Yan Jingxi: “Of course not.”
Yuan Zhan: “Then do you still want me to pour you a glass back?”
Yan Jingxi: “No need.”
Yuan Zhan: “So what do you want?”
Yan Jingxi: “Nothing.”
Such a domineering declaration stunned Yan Jingxi.
When he came back to his senses, Yuan Zhan had already put down his glass and turned around to walk into the house. His phone was out of battery and it was time to charge it up.
Yan Jingxi had no choice but to pick up the two glasses and bring them back to the house. What did he want to tell Yuan Zhan when he came out just now?
He wanted to ask Yuan Zhan if he had any other requirements regarding the content of the divorce agreement, and that he would do his best to fulfill them.
Yan Jingxi thought to himself that he had been playing games with Yuan Zhan for an hour just now, so he should be in a good mood, right?
He took out the fourth version of the divorce agreement from his pocket and walked into the house.
At this time, Yuan Zhan had just come out of the bathroom and wiped his hands when Yan Jingxi handed him a piece of paper.
When Yuan Zhan saw the few words at the top of the paper, his good mood suddenly changed as he spoke, “Yan Jingxi, the deadline I gave you was one month. I didn’t expect you to be so impatient to divorce me.”
Yan Jingxi felt the speed at which Yuan Zhan’s face changed: “I just wanted to discuss the divorce agreement with you calmly. You don’t need to be angry.”
Yuan Zhan sneered with an indifferent expression on his face: “No, I’m not angry, I just feel chilled in my heart.”
Holding the divorce agreement in his hand, Yuan Zhan turned around and went upstairs.
Yuan Zhan walked to the middle of the stairs, and suddenly turned around, unable to resist tearing the paper in his hand into pieces.
His calm voice trembled slightly: “I will give you an answer after our wedding anniversary.”
The previous harmonious hour felt like a joke.
Yan Jingxi looked at the white paper scattered on the ground like snowflakes, and felt a slight pain in his heart.
