Chapter 59: You’re Welcome
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Lin Sijia was very understanding, and Ye Xingchen was very satisfied.
Ye Xingchen only gave her a reminder and didn’t want her immediately. He waved his hand and let Lin Sijia follow him upstairs.
Lin Sijia listened to Ye Xingchen’s command. Her face was red as she walked in front of Ye Xingchen.
After all, Ye Xingchen didn’t dare to expose his back to anyone, not even Lin Sijia.
“Alright, you’ll stay in this room from now on.”
He led Lin Sijia up to the sixth floor and gave her the master bedroom on the sixth floor.
“If you need anything, send me a message. You can also use this walkie-talkie to call me.”
Ye Xingchen took out a machine and gave it to Lin Sijia before locking the room door. Then, he went up to the seventh floor and locked the door of the stairs on the seventh floor. He then put the only key into the space.
This night was destined to be long.
Lin Sijia was still reminiscing about what had happened tonight while she lay in bed.
She had only come to Ye Xingchen for help with the intention of giving it a try. She did not even think that she would succeed.
After all, she was not familiar with Ye Xingchen. She only knew that there was such a rich second-generation heir in the same neighborhood as her. Moreover, she had only seen Ye Xingchen a few times at night from a distance when she was throwing out trash.
After the heavy snowfall, she had seen Ye Xingchen’s messages in the group several times. She did not think that Ye Xingchen was an easy person to talk to, nor did she think that Ye Xingchen would lend her a helping hand.
She was just hoping to get lucky and thought that she still had some value, so she wanted to use her medical skills in exchange for some medicine and food from Ye Xingchen.
In the end, not only did Ye Xingchen give her food, but he also allowed her to live in this house?!
Lin Sijia lay on the bed and turned over. She buried her face in the pillow and took a deep breath. She could even smell the same cedar scent as Ye Xingchen.
The soft bed and comfortable temperature made Lin Sijia fall asleep very quickly.
This was the first time she had such a comfortable sleep since the heavy snow.
Ye Xingchen returned to his room on the seventh floor and took a shower. He dried his hair and sat on the bed.
For safety reasons, he installed a door at the entrance of each floor. It could be said that each floor could be used as an independent house.
He looked at the surveillance camera and saw that Lin Sijia was already sleeping in bed on her side.
After sleeping for half a day, Ye Xingchen also slept longer than usual. After all, there was a doctor at home, so he felt more at ease. Otherwise, he would feel a little uneasy living alone in such a big house.
Humans were social animals, and having a companion in life would more or less bring a lot of fun.
However, the prerequisite was that Lin Sijia had to be absolutely loyal to him.
Ye Xingchen pulled up the surveillance footage and saw that Lin Sijia had changed her position and was still sleeping.
It had been a long time since she had slept so peacefully. Usually, she was either too cold to sleep or it was too noisy to sleep because of the cries of the surrounding residents.
Ye Xingchen ignored her. He got out of bed, washed up, and went straight to the living room on the sixth floor. He planned to have breakfast here today.
He dug into his space and took out a lot of food.
Then, he took out the key and opened Lin Sijia’s room door. He even knocked on the door. “Are you awake? Come out and let’s have breakfast together.”
Ye Xingchen could have dragged her out directly, but after thinking about it, he felt that if he wanted to get along with Lin Sijia for a long time, he needed to give her some superficial respect.
“Alright, I’ll come out in a bit.”
A sweet and hoarse voice came from inside. Lin Sijia was woken up by the knock on the door.
Ye Xingchen picked up a bowl of steaming congee with preserved egg and lean meat and took a sip. Then, he put a shrimp dumpling into his mouth.
When he was eating the second steamer of shrimp dumplings, Lin Sijia had washed up and came out with her robe wrapped around her.
“Come here.”
The first person Lin Sijia saw when she stepped out of the room was Ye Xingchen. Her face turned red, and when she saw the table full of Cantonese-style dim sum, she felt as if she was dreaming.
“Feel free to eat whatever you want.”
The porridge was still warm, and even the various snacks were still warm. The foods were at this temperature when Ye Xingchen put them in the space.
Lin Sijia took a bite of the shrimp dumpling and a bite of the beef tripe. As she ate, tears fell into her bowl.
Usually, Lin Sijia was busy with her thesis and internship, so she didn’t have many opportunities to eat a good meal. After the heavy snow, everyone felt that the end of the world had arrived, so they couldn’t even have a full meal. They could barely fill their stomachs. Yet now, they could actually eat such an authentic and warm Cantonese-style meal when everyone was feeling insecure…
After eating until she was 80% full, Lin Sijia put down her chopsticks and stopped eating.
“Are you full?”
Ye Xingchen had just finished his last bite when he looked up and saw that Lin Sijia had already put down her chopsticks.
“Yes, I’m 80% full. I’ve been starving for the past few days. I can’t eat too much at once, or it will burden my stomach.”
“Alright, since you’re done eating, let’s watch the show.”
Zhao Hao and his friends had been moving things for the entire night. Ye Xingchen read the message from Zhao Hao and knew that the effects of the sleeping pills on Zhang Yi and the others had worn off. They were all awake now.
“Okay, hide the supplies you got. Don’t go over anymore. Go home and lock the doors and windows.”
Zhao Hao nodded and quietly led his friends back to their homes.
“Do you remember how you drugged them last night?”
Lin Sijia nodded in confusion.
“Zhang Yi and the others are awake.”
Ye Xingchen did not explain further. After confirming that Zhao Hao and the others had arrived home safely and had locked the doors and windows, he found the community owners’ group and sent a message.
“Previously, you all begged me to give you some supplies. Sigh, my heart aches when I see that my neighbors don’t have enough to eat or wear.”
“That’s why I’m here with Doctor Lin to give everyone warmth.”
“Zhang Yi secretly hid a lot of supplies, and he even robbed his neighbors. He’s really gone too far!”
“I asked Doctor Lin for help. We quietly took down Zhang Yi and the others. Now, the door of Zhang Yi’s house is open. If you need any supplies, you can go and get them!”
“Just take it as a small token of my appreciation to everyone!”
Ye Xingchen crossed his legs and sent a long message to the group. In the end, he even sent a video of Zhang Yi and the others being tied up and locked on the balcony.
“The supplies are on the first and second floors. You’re welcome!”
Lin Sijia picked up her phone and looked at Ye Xingchen’s message in the group. She felt a little awkward.
Ye Xingchen’s words seemed to have tied him together with her.
Although she was indeed the one who did this, Lin Sijia didn’t think that there was anything wrong with Ye Xingchen’s actions.
After all, it was Zhang Yi who attacked Ye Xingchen first..
