Chapter 87

Monday

"Morning... What the hell?"

Li Xing paused, looking at the person in front of him, Samson Nan.

"Just came back from Africa?"

They hadn't seen each other in a week, and his skin had tanned to a bronze color, like a completely different person.

"Went to the beach, got a tan," he replied, tidying up the documents on his desk.

"Hey, is this your sister?" Li Xing took his phone and flipped through the photos inside.

"Hey..."

He was already used to this habit of Samson looking through his phone.

"Oh, I haven't seen these other beauties before! Can you introduce them to me, bro?"

"Aren't you married?"

"Come on, just making friends," Samson said, nudging him with his elbow.

"Director Yin is here!"

At that moment, someone shouted, and the large office suddenly fell silent.

Li Xing quickly took his seat and returned to his desk.

Director Yin glanced around, without saying a word, and walked into his office.

With a loud bang, he closed the door.

Anyone could see that he didn't seem to be in a good mood.

...

The silence persisted until the end of the workday.

Samson Nan checked the time and saw that it was past 6 o'clock.

Time to go home...

...

Heading out of the company's gate, he suddenly remembered that he had run out of dog food at home.

So he turned back and headed towards the supermarket.

Yiyi was becoming quite the eater now, and she needed to consume a pound of this kind of dog food from the supermarket every day.

Her weight had been steadily increasing, and Raina Nan probably couldn't lift her anymore...

"Welcome, come again~" Carrying a heavy bag, he walked out of the supermarket.

"Ah."

"..."

Just as he walked out, he bumped into a familiar face.

"What a coincidence?"

"Yeah."

Standing in front of him was Director Yin's son, Yin Dong.

He had a small backpack on his back and a cigarette in his hand.

"What are you carrying?" He glanced at the bag in Samson Nan's hand.

"Dog food."

"That's what you're having for dinner?"

"... Are you trying to pick a fight?"

Samson Nan drooped his eyelids and stared at him.

"Of course, I'm just kidding," Yin Dong said, pushing his glasses.

Sorry, I didn't get the joke.

"I haven't eaten either, let's go together?"

He suggested.

"Sure, where to?"

"Let me think..."

"Is it a maid café?"

Somehow, he felt like Yin Dong would say that.

"What are you talking about? Is a maid café a proper place to eat?" Yin Dong looked at Samson Nan strangely.

"..."

He had unexpectedly turned the tables on him.

Very good, well played.

"I need to feed my dog at home first."

"Okay, I'll go with you."

"Oh really? That works..."

To be honest, Samson Nan and Yin Dong weren't that close, just having met a few times and had coffee together once.

But since it had come to this, he couldn't refuse.

...

"Here?"

"Yeah, come on in."

The two of them arrived at Samson Nan's apartment.

Yin Dong looked around, casually throwing his backpack on the sofa.

"You sit first."

Samson Nan poured the dog food into a bowl and placed it in front of Yiyi.

"..."

Meanwhile, Yin Dong paced around and walked into his room.

"What are you looking for?" Samson Nan yelled inside after he didn't come out for a while.

"Doesn't your sister have anything here?"

He stood at the doorway, pushing his glasses.

"My sister? What things?"

"Of course, underwear, socks, and all that."

"No way!" Samson Nan almost spit out his water.

"Well... I thought you were into your sister?"

"It's completely different, right?! And what would I use them for?"

"To use them."

...

A brief silence.

"To use them..."

"Of course, I was just joking."

He said with a serious face, lighting a cigarette.

...

Honestly, it's not funny at all.

I almost called the police.

I wonder if Yin Li Xia would still be able to laugh when she hears his joke...

...

Samson Nan tidied up his home a bit and then went out with Yin Dong again.

The two wandered aimlessly on the street and eventually walked into a hot pot restaurant.

...

"By the way, President Yin didn't look too good today, what happened?"

At the dining table, Samson Nan asked this.

"Not looking good?"

"Yeah, like he's angry."

"Ah, it might be that..."

Yin Dong said with a bitter smile.

...

After thinking for a moment, Yin Dong spoke again.

"Do you want to know about my wife?"

"Well..."

Since it was someone else's family matter, he didn't inquire further.

But just as he was about to say forget it, Yin Dong spoke again.

"My wife, she didn't get pregnant."

"..."

He said it quite calmly, casually mentioning it.

It's been almost a year since he attended his wedding, so there should have been some progress...

"You can't?"

"I don't know, I tried my best, but maybe..."

He said, picking up his teacup and taking a sip.

"Is my love not enough?"

"..."

What kind of reason is this?

"Let's not talk about this anymore, come, let's have a few drinks~"

Originally, he wanted to refuse, but for some reason, he felt that this guy was pitiful, so he could have a few drinks as a form of company.

...

Two hours later.

"Yoouu... speak!"

After a few rounds, Yin Dong was already quite drunk.

"Ah, I'm listening, I'm listening."

Samson Nan supported him and stumbled out of the hot pot restaurant.

"Youuu... tell me, am I, Yin Dong, am I... handsome?"

His speech was slurred.

"Handsome, handsome, handsome to the extreme."

"And am I... outstanding?"

"Outstanding, outstanding. Hey, slow down!"

As soon as Samson Nan let go of him a little, he almost fell to the ground.

"That... who else, apart from me, is worthy of our Li Xia?"

"What are you saying..."

He probably didn't even know what he was saying himself.

Samson Nan helped him to the side of the road, getting ready to call a taxi.

Ding ding ding

At this moment, the phone suddenly rang.

Samson Nan could only support him with one hand while reaching into his bag with the other hand to find his phone.

"Hello?"

"Brother, where are you?"

On the other end of the phone, Raina Nan's voice came through.

"I'm outside, what's up?"

He glanced at the time, it was already 10 pm.

"I, um... I'm staying at your place tonight."

"What about Mom and Dad?"

"They went to Grandma's."

"Okay, where are you now?"

"Right in front of your door..."

"Don't you have the key? Just go inside."

"Oh, and you?"

"I... I'm taking a drunk colleague home."

"Colleague? Who?"

"Someone you don't know."

"..."

The phone suddenly went quiet.

After a while, she spoke again.

"Is it a man or a woman?"

"A man, why?"

"Oh, nothing..."

"..."

He hesitated, glanced at the time on the screen.

"Well, just wait for me at home. If someone knocks on the door, don't open it, understand?"

"Oh."

"Bye."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

The most important thing now was to escort this drunk person back home.

"Bao, bao..."

With half-closed eyes, Yin Dong blindly searched with his hand.

"What bao?"

"I put it... at your house..."

"Oh, that..."

Indeed, he did bring a small bag today.

"I'll have Yin Director bring it to you next time."

"But... there's something inside..."

...

...

Raina Nan opened the door with her keys.

"Woof woof woof!"

As soon as Wai Wai saw her, it ran towards her with its legs spread.

"Oh my goodness!"

She took a step back, almost losing her balance.

"Wai Wai, you need to lose weight~" she said as she touched its head.

"Woof!"

She didn't know if it understood or not, it just stuck out its tongue and stared at her.

After a moment, it hopped to the side of the sofa and grabbed the small backpack on it, then ran to her.

"What is this?"

She felt the backpack with her hand; it was quite heavy.

"Woof!"

Wai Wai stood on tiptoe and bit open the zipper.

Everything inside fell to the floor in an instant.

She glanced at it.

Seemingly all books and... CDs?

When she carefully read the words on top again.

She froze instantly.
