So they lived this close to each other.
Ye Ning was really tight-lipped; she had never breathed a word of it.
Xiao Jun complained, "What's with Shen Qinghan? I told him to tell you, but he actually didn't say anything?"
Si Yiheng's eyes darkened with a cryptic depth. Not only had Shen Qinghan failed to tell him that Shu Yu lived right above him, but he had also moved directly across the hall from her.
Did Shen Qinghan like Shu Yu?
Had he discovered her shining qualities and her cuteness? Was he attracted to her?
Shen Qinghan was unwilling to give up; he wanted Shu Yu to take pity on him, hoping that being close to her would give him an advantage.
He even tested him time and time again, trying to hasten their breakup.
Si Yiheng sneered.
He should have known. Shen Qinghan was a man with no moral boundaries.
Once he latched onto someone, he was like the stickiest plaster, impossible to shake off.
LoveSimpAndHomewrecker: Shu Yu, have you been discharged from the hospital?
LoveSimpAndHomewrecker: I went to the hospital to see you but couldn't find you. That's when I found out you were discharged.
LoveSimpAndHomewrecker: Are you home? I made food.
Shu Yu was home, but seeing Shen Qinghan's messages, she only wanted to brush him off.
LittleFishSwimming: Not home.
LoveSimpAndHomewrecker: Then where did you go?
LittleFishSwimming: Don't worry, I'm not with Si Yiheng.
LoveSimpAndHomewrecker: Oh.
Shen Qinghan was truly a qualified simp. Every time he couldn't find her, he would suspect she was with Si Yiheng.
If only someone could send Shen Qinghan far away, she would thank their ancestors for eighteen generations.
What Shu Yu didn't expect was that the wish she made in the morning would come true that very afternoon.
LoveSimpAndHomewrecker: Shu Yu, I can't live across from you anymore. If you need anything in the future, you can call me.
LoveSimpAndHomewrecker: I probably won't be able to message you either.
Shu Yu: !!!
That was absolutely wonderful.
LoveSimpAndHomewrecker: Be careful of Si Yiheng. I will come back for you in a year at most.
Seeing this, Shu Yu's eyes lit up.
There was no need to come back for her.
If everything went smoothly, she would have completed her mission and run away long before a year passed. She would never see Shen Qinghan again in this lifetime.
Moreover, judging from Shen Qinghan's words, it seemed that for some unknown reason, he and Si Yiheng had completely fallen out.
Then she didn't have to worry about Shen Qinghan badmouthing her to Si Yiheng and causing him to break up with her.
Since Shen Qinghan was leaving, Shu Yu didn't even bother acting anymore; she directly blocked him.
Shen Qinghan tried to send Shu Yu a message, only to find a red exclamation mark appearing next to it.
Shen Qinghan: ...
He had been blocked by Shu Yu.
It must have been that jealous husband Si Yiheng who forced Shu Yu to block him.
Forcing him to leave City A, and then forcing Shu Yu to delete him, Si Yiheng was always so suffocating.
At the thought of Shen Qinghan leaving, Shu Yu felt she could eat two extra bowls of rice today.
Shu Yu was so happy that even Ye Ning noticed her good mood. "What's up? Why are you so happy?"
Shu Yu hugged Ye Ning, rubbing affectionately against her neck. "Because a jinx has been sent away."
Ye Ning thoroughly enjoyed Shu Yu's cuddles. "Then do you want to eat Luosifen hotpot today?"
Shu Yu raised her hand. "Yes, yes, yes!"
Ye Ning: "I'll place an order for groceries. Do you want beef tripe, fatty beef, shrimp paste, and pork aorta?"
Shu Yu's eyes sparkled like a puppy seeing its food, her tone joyful. "I'll eat it, I'll eat it all! I'm not a picky eater!"
Ye Ning looked up and saw Shu Yu's exceptionally bright eyes, smiling as she said, "Then you really are a good baby who isn't picky."
Hearing Ye Ning praise her, Shu Yu's beautiful eyes seemed to dance with shattered light, exceptionally happy.
Ye Ning realized that Shu Yu actually loved being praised. As long as someone complimented her, she would show a happy expression. Ye Ning felt that if Shu Yu had a tail, it would be wagging right now.
Ye Ning: "You look like a little fox."
Shu Yu propped up her face and leaned in closer to Ye Ning. "Are you saying I'm cunning?"
Ye Ning gently pinched Shu Yu's cheek and laughed, "Foxes are actually idiots."
Shu Yu: w(ﾟДﾟ)w
Was she an idiot?
Before Shu Yu could demand an explanation, Ye Ning quickly changed the subject. "Do you know how to cook, Baby Yu?"
Shu Yu: "I know how to boil Luosifen and instant noodles."
When it came to proper cooking and stir-frying, Shu Yu was clueless, but knowing how to boil instant noodles was enough to ensure she wouldn't starve to death.
Ye Ning: "You boil the Luosifen, and I'll make a highly difficult honeycomb fried egg."
"Okay, okay," Shu Yu obediently agreed. Like a little robot, she began shuttling around the kitchen, filling water one moment, fishing out and draining the boiled noodles the next, then adding the Luosifen seasonings and pouring in fresh water.
Shu Yu: "Ningning, should I put tomatoes in?"
Ye Ning: "Yes, add them. Don't bother chopping them, you might cut your hand. Just throw them straight in."
Shu Yu: "Okay, then I'll throw the cherry tomatoes in."
After finishing her Luosifen broth, Shu Yu felt quite proud of herself.
Ye Ning had beaten the eggs successfully and also felt quite proud of herself.
The two of them completely threw Si Yiheng's warning about them not cooking to the back of their minds.
Ye Ning had finished beating the eggs and was pouring oil into the pan.
Ye Ning: "Is this enough oil?"
Shu Yu looked at the pan of oil and shook her head. "Probably not enough. They say making honeycomb fried eggs requires a lot of oil."
Ye Ning picked up the oil bottle and added more. Adding a little, she worried it still wasn't enough, so she added a little more.
Ye Ning: "I'm going to start."
The oil was heated to its peak, and Ye Ning poured the egg mixture in. At first, the egg mixture obediently and rapidly expanded. But as it quickly swelled to fill the small pan, the oil spilled over, and flames instantly shot up.
The flames crept along the edge of the pan right into it, igniting all the oil inside.
The fire shot straight up along the range hood to the ceiling.
The moment the fire hit the ceiling, the wrinkles in Shu Yu's brain were instantly smoothed out.
Shu Yu and Ye Ning both backed away. Shu Yu stuttered slightly, "I, I'll go wet a bath towel to put out the fire."
Shu Yu remembered that extinguishing a fire required cutting off the oxygen.
The two of them frantically tried to put out the fire.
Amidst their chaotic operations, the fire remained at a level where it couldn't be put out, yet wasn't continuously spreading either.
Si Yiheng was at home at this time, and he could hear the slightly panicked footsteps upstairs.
Just as Si Yiheng was about to call Ye Ning to ask what was wrong, he received a call from his childhood friend Xiao Jun first.
Xiao Jun: "Brother Heng, why is my smoke alarm going off constantly? Go check if something happened to Sister-in-law at home."
Si Yiheng: "Mm."
Si Yiheng grabbed a fire extinguisher on his way out and knocked on the door.
At this moment, Shu Yu was just walking out with a freshly dampened piece of clothing. Hearing the knock, Ye Ning turned on the camera monitor and saw Si Yiheng standing outside.
Ye Ning looked as if she had seen a savior. She turned her head to comfort Shu Yu, "Xiao Yu, my brother is here to save us!"
