fiery fall

Chapter 19 Living together after three months
Fu Qianbei picked up the phone.

Shen Ennan: "Have you eaten your bento?"

Fu Qianbei laid out the lunch box, took a photo and sent it over: "Just opened it."

He was about to say that although he hadn't tasted it yet, it looked very good.

Shen Ennan: "The words composed of carrots and seaweed are not my original intention. They were made from the dicing props bought by my mother. There is no other meaning."

Shen Ennan: "Just eat it as an ordinary vegetable."

Fu Qianbei's face darkened.

Another message came from the other side.

Shen Ennan: "That's what I want to say. Eat slowly and rest early after work. I won't disturb you anymore."

Fu Qianbei: "This concern is not your original intention. Was it your mother who asked you to say it?"

Shen Ennan: "?"

Fu Qianbei put his phone on the table with a cold face, not bothering to read the message from this woman.

He picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the egg. His chewing movements slowly froze. Is this acetic acid taste what shrimp scrambled eggs should have?
Also, what is that crunchy cereal-like substance in your mouth?
Fu Qianbei reluctantly swallowed it. Since Shen Ennan came to deliver the lunch in person, she would definitely not poison him.

He didn't want to touch any more of this shrimp scrambled egg. Fu Qianbei tried the fried pork with green pepper for the second time. After chewing it twice, the spiciness hit the sky, and the skin above his neck turned red.

After two bites of food, Fu Qianbei had already drank more than half a glass of water.

The third course of boiled vegetables was so salty that it was hard to swallow.

Only the carrots and seaweed cut with the words "I love you" maintain the original freshness of the food.

Fu Qianbei raised his forehead: "..."

On the other side, Shen Ennan sat at the computer desk and looked at his phone.

After "Jiang Yan" stopped talking to her, Shen Ennan was a little confused. Why did Jiang Yan's WeChat chat feel so different from face-to-face conversation?
Could it be that this is the illusory nature of the Internet?
Shen Ennan only struggled for a while and did not go into details.

She put down her phone and wanted to concentrate on composing the script. Fu Qianbei's gentle and indifferent face appeared in her mind again.

She closed her eyes, trying to think of the plot in the script, and then began to type words with concentration.

At three o'clock in the morning, Shen Ennan turned off the computer and climbed into bed in a daze to rest.

When I woke up, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.

Shen Ennan touched her flat belly, and her stomach rumbled twice in unison. She vaguely remembered that Zhang Lan asked her to have lunch, but she said vaguely that she didn't want to eat.

Touching the mobile phone on the bedside table, Shen Ennan ordered a takeaway, stretched, and got up to wash up.

Half an hour later, Shen Ennan was sitting at the dining table eating wontons. Zhang Lan came out of the bedroom and sat opposite her.

"Will Jiang Yan work overtime today?"

"No more today."

"If you don't work overtime, ask him to come over for dinner in the evening."

A small wonton that Shen Ennan scooped up fell back into the soup with a clatter. She lowered her head guiltily and took a spoonful of soup to drink: "I remember wrong, I think I have to work overtime..."

Zhang Lan looked at her and smiled seriously: "If you work overtime, you can continue to make love lunches for your husband!"

Shen Ennan resisted: "Why!"

"Of course it's about cultivating feelings."

Zhang Lan looked resolutely at his reluctant daughter, and said in a tone that could not be rejected: "Jiang Yan is the husband you chose yourself, right? I have reviewed it, and he has a good character and personality. In this case, you two should cultivate your relationship well. .”

"I'll give you three months to live with Jiang Yan in three months."

"Living together?!" Shen Ennan's eyes widened. Her mother wasn't kidding her, was she?
Zhang Lan patted the table and said naturally: "What do you call a couple if they don't live together? Otherwise, how will they breed the next generation?"

Shen Ennan hesitated for a moment and couldn't find any reason to refute Zhang Lan.

Indeed, she and Jiang Yan were married, so they should live together and even sleep in the same bed.

But the person she loves is not him.

Seeing that Shen Ennan was stunned and silent, Zhang Lan asked again: "So, will Jiang Yan work overtime today? If he doesn't work overtime, let him go home for dinner. If he works overtime, you will make him a love lunch." Shen Ennan also needs to follow him at this moment. Jiang Yan discussed the sudden "living together in three months".

She glanced at Zhang Lan and clicked on WeChat: "I'll ask him."

On the WeChat interface, the chat history between Shen Ennan and Rebirth (Jiang Yan) still remains on the question mark she sent last night.

Shen Ennan asked urgently: "Are you busy now?"

Shen Ennan: "I have something I want to talk to you about."

Shen Ennan: "Didi Didi - Call Call/Emoji Pack"

The message was sent to nothing.

Zhang Lan also saw her chat interface and suggested: "Maybe the phone is muted, you can try making a call."

Shen Ennan looked at the time and quickly ate two wontons: "The company usually starts work at two o'clock. It should be during lunch break now. I'll call him after I finish."

Zhang Lan nodded with satisfaction.

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

Shen Ennan guessed that Jiang Yan would be at work by now, so he tried to dial his work phone number.

The call was answered instantly, and Jiang Yan's gentle voice came over: "Miss Shen, what can I do for you?"

Shen Ennan: "There's something wrong. Where are you now?"

Jiang Yan: "Hospital."

Shen Ennan: "Are you sick?"

Jiang Yan: "It's not me, it's Mr. Fu. Mr. Fu suddenly fainted during the morning meeting this morning and is now receiving treatment at the No. [-] Hospital. Do you want to come over?"

Shen Ennan: "I'll be right over!"

When Shen Ennan heard that it was Fu Qianbei who was hospitalized, Shen Ennan became nervous instantly and was already walking towards the door.

I saw him fine last night, but why did he suddenly faint today?

Zhang Lan came out of the bedroom after hearing the sound. When he saw Shen Ennan's red eyes, his heart tightened and he asked, "Ennan, has your father been found?"

Hearing his mother's trembling voice, Shen Ennan realized that his state had frightened Zhang Lan.

She said calmly: "Mom, it's not my dad's news, it's... it's Jiang Yan. He is in the hospital now. I'll go there first!"

After saying that, Shen Ennan put on her shoes and ran towards the corridor.

Half an hour later, the hospital.

Jiang Yan met Shen Ennan in the inpatient department, and the latter's face was full of worry.

Shen Ennan said nervously: "Is he awake now? How is the situation?"

Jiang Yan thought to himself: Madam has a deep affection for Mr. Fu. A small stomach problem can cause her to become like this.

Jiang Yan explained with a smile: "Don't worry, Miss Shen. Mr. Fu has been transferred to the regular ward to rest. I will take you up now."

The two entered the elevator, and Jiang Yan pressed the button for the 33rd floor. This is the highest-standard ward in the hospital, and the cost for a day is tens of thousands.

Shen Ennan stared at the upward red numbers on the elevator display over his shoulder, his fingers were stiff and numb, and his palms were sweaty.

Her voice was low and hoarse, with deep concern: "Is he not in good health? When I saw him last night, he didn't look like he was ill."

With a "ding", the elevator door opened. Jiang Yan did not answer her question immediately, but led her out of the elevator.

The corridor was spacious and long, and the sunlight shone through the glass windows. It looked warm, but Shen Ennan's heart was still gloomy and cold.

She was always worried until she saw that Fu Qianbei was safe and sound.

"Is she Shen Ennan?"

Suddenly, a man stopped in front of her.
