Hearing this, Ye Ci gained more confidence. He rolled up his sleeves, sat down in front of the computer, and started typing frantically!
Pei Xingzhi was still calm. He turned to look at Qin Song and asked, “How can you be so sure that this game will be popular?”
Qin Song: “…My intuition told me.”
Pei Xingzhi: “…Okay.”
Although the intuition had no factual basis, it still gave him some confidence.
He put the information away and continued working on the computer.
Qin Song had nothing to do, so she wandered around the room a few times out of boredom, then began to feel drowsy.
After dinner, Pei’s mother went back to the tutoring institution to continue her classes, leaving Qin Song the only one left in the studio. Qin Song sat on a chair and played with her mobile phone for a while. The more she played, the more sleepy she felt, so she simply lay down on the table and dozed off.
Pei Xingzhi took on a few odd jobs in the morning. After modifying the modeling data, he continued working for the client. He didn’t even know when Qin Song fell asleep on the table.
It was Ye Ci who saw it and told him.
He temporarily put down the work in his hands, pulled out a chair and walked quietly to Qin Song’s side.
Qin Song rested her face on her arms, her face was squeezed into a round shape, and at first glance she looked like Crayon Shin-chan.
Pei Xingzhi smiled faintly.
Qin Song was sleeping soundly, with slight snoring sounds coming from her breathing. Pei Xingzhi didn’t have the heart to wake her up, but he had to.
He leaned down, patted the back of Qin Song’s head gently, and called her softly: “Qin Song, Qin Song?”
“…Hmm?” Qin Song opened her eyes drowsily, so sleepy that she couldn’t even see Pei Xingzhi’s face clearly, “What’s the matter? Is it time to eat again?”
“No.” Pei Xingzhi’s voice was very gentle, with a hint of smile, and Qin Song’s heart beat faster.
“It’s not comfortable to sleep on your stomach. Come with me, I’ll take you to the bed.”
Qin Song stood up and looked at him with confused eyes: “Where is the bed here?”
Pei Xingzhi grabbed her wrist, led her to stand up and walked to the desk: “In order to facilitate rest, Ye Ci bought two bunk beds online two days ago. I’ll take out the bunk bed for you, you can lie on it and sleep.”
“Although it’s not as comfortable as home, at least it won’t make you so tired.”
Qin Song followed Pei Xingzhi obediently. Hearing this, she nodded: “Oh.”
The bunk bed was placed under the filing cabinet behind the desk. Pei Xingzhi took it out, unfolded it, and helped Qin Song lie down on it.
Qin Song turned over and lay on his side, smiling with satisfaction: “It’s quite comfortable.”
Pei Xingzhi pursed his lips and couldn’t smile at all.
Qin Song was pregnant and had to live in a rental house with him, and now she even had to take a nap on a hard bunk bed.
He felt really bad.
But Qin Song didn’t think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, she said happily: “Then I’ll go to sleep first, you guys do your best.”
Pei Xingzhi took off his coat and covered her with it, and uttered a muffled “hmm”.
Qin Song is not a picky person, she can sleep well even on a bunk bed.
She closed her eyes quietly, and the sound of her even breathing came intermittently amidst the sound of keyboard tapping. Pei Xingzhi listened and felt inexplicably at ease.
He was busy with his work for his master, and would look back at Qin Song from time to time. Seeing Qin Song sleeping soundly, his tiredness would dissipate a little.
“Brother Pei.” Ye Ci sat opposite Pei Xingzhi, and could only call him in a whisper for fear of disturbing Qin Song.
“Hmm?” Pei Xingzhi raised his eyelids and looked over.
Ye Ci: “You showed our project document to your sister-in-law so openly? Aren’t you afraid that your sister-in-law will… do something?”
Pei Xingzhi glanced at the sleeping Qin Song, and spoke softly but firmly: “No.”
“She is willing to believe me, so naturally I have to believe her. If we are on guard everywhere, we are not husband and wife.”
“…Oh.”
Since Pei Xingzhi said so, there is no need for him to repeat himself. But after thinking about it, he couldn’t help but remind her again: “Brother Pei, we have already suffered a setback because of Fang Bo. This setback was very tragic and serious. I don’t want another Fang Bo to appear around us.”
“I understand.” Pei Xingzhi raised his glasses, and the eyes behind the lenses were shrewd and sober. “My trust is also conditional. Don’t worry, her every move is under my control, and I will not let her become the second Fang Bo.”
The meaning of this sentence was quite profound, and Ye Ci paused for several seconds before he understood its meaning.
He raised his eyebrows and gave Pei Xingzhi a gratified smile: “Since Brother Pei knows the idea, I won’t worry about it anymore.”
“Hmm…”
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Song on the bunk bed suddenly stretched and turned over. Pei Xingzhi quickly turned around to look at her, and when he saw that she hadn’t opened her eyes, the wariness on his face eased a little.
“Yeah.” He responded softly, reaching out to pull up the coat that had slipped off and covering Qin Song with it.
“Keep busy. I have to go home early today.”
Ye Ci made an “OK” gesture to him: “Okay.”
Qin Song slept for a full two hours during this nap. When he got up again, Pei Xingzhi had completed all the work for the single master.
“Awake?” Pei Xingzhi put down his phone, slid his chair around, turned around, and looked at her with a faint smile.
“…” Qin Song’s eyes were blank and her expression was dull, as if she hadn’t heard anything and had no reaction.
She slept for too long, and it seemed as if her brain had completely gone into sleep. She was completely dazed and unconscious.
Pei Xingzhi waited for her for a while, and seeing that she was standing there in a daze, not moving or talking, he stretched out a hand and waved it in front of her eyes.
“Qin Song, are you awake?”
“…Hmm?” Qin Song finally regained some consciousness and looked up at Pei Xingzhi slowly and dully, “Hmm… I’m awake.”
“Do you want some water?” Pei Xingzhi asked patiently.
Qin Song: “Yes.”
Pei Xingzhi turned around and called Ye Ci: “Ye Zi, pour your sister-in-law a glass of water.”
Ye Ci was changing the water at the water dispenser. Hearing this, he laughed helplessly: “Brother Pei, how can I pour water? The funding of our studio has always been tight. In the tea room, except for a bucket of purified water and our two cups, where can we find any extra water containers?”
“Huh?” Pei Xingzhi was completely unaware of this, “No water containers? Not even disposable paper cups?”
Ye Ci shook his head: “No.”
“…” Pei Xingzhi’s expression suddenly became a little embarrassed.
Qin Song looked at the two of them in embarrassment, thought for a few seconds, and wanted to say forget it, she wasn’t thirsty, but Pei Xingzhi suddenly handed her his cup of water.
“If you don’t mind, drink from my cup.”
“…” Qin Song looked at him in surprise, and after hesitating for a moment, she took the cup of water with both hands.
“I don’t mind.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she tilted her head back and drank the water in the cup in big gulps. After drinking it, she gave it back to Pei Xingzhi: “Thank you.”
Pei Xingzhi blinked, looking a little unnatural.
“You’re welcome.”
“Buzz-buzz-”
At this moment, Pei Xingzhi’s cell phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller’s note and immediately pressed the answer button.
“Hello, Mom.”
Pei’s mother’s voice came clearly from the receiver of the mobile phone: “Xingzhi, when can you get off work? Just come and pick me up after work. Xiaoxuan has to work overtime again today and can’t have dinner with us.”
“Work overtime again?” Pei Xingzhi frowned, and a cold look instantly flashed in his eyes.
