MAPF Chapter 11

Chapter 11: Feeding Medicine, Skin Warm, Smooth

Xie Shiwei’s attitude was firm. He Qin’s eyes flickered a few times before he finally nodded, “I should still go talk to him. You find the person to investigate, that way the suspicion can be completely cleared.”

“But be careful, if it really has nothing to do with Bai An, the mastermind is still in the dark. You are the most valuable young man in Jiangcheng, inevitably many people are watching you. It’s best not to make a big show of it and startle the snake.”

“I understand.” Xie Shiwei was very puzzled, “If it wasn’t Bai An, I really don’t know who would have such a big opinion of me.”

He intuitively felt that this matter had nothing to do with Chen Ning.

The purpose of pushing the original owner into the pool was to postpone the wedding, and Chen Ning couldn’t wait for him to marry He Qin, and wouldn’t have the mind to interfere in the company in the future.

He Qin raised an eyebrow, “The people you’ve offended could circle the entrance fountain.”

“Haha, I know that much about myself,” Xie Shiwei said with a guilty conscience, trying hard to defend himself, “I just don’t think it’s that serious. Those were just small fights.”

“Fights?” He Qin said coldly, “If you’ve forgotten everything, you’d better ask your idiot friend to clarify.”

“Oh,” Xie Shiwei touched his nose and went downstairs to wait for He Qin to finish his work before going home together.

.

He Qin was busy for another twenty minutes, and Lin Ying, the assistant, came to collect the documents.

He Qin asked him, “Don’t you think Xie Shiwei is a little different than before?”

Lin Ying shook his head violently, “Xie Shiwei just threatened me by jumping off the building, telling me not to block the door. That’s his old trick. Do you think something is wrong with him?”

“Many places are wrong, but there are also many places that are right.” He Qin rotated the pen in his hand, “Perhaps I’m overthinking it. You can go home now.”

“Okay! Goodbye, President He!”

Lin Ying left, and He Qin looked at the vast night outside the window, tapping his chin with his fingertip.

After losing his memory, Xie Shiwei’s attitude towards him and Bai An, his thinking, and his way of doing things were all very unexpected, but in many ways, he was the same as before: sleepy, not doing his job properly, and occasionally acting like a spoiled child.

It was as if he had become two separate people.

Could it be that this person’s amnesia also resulted in a split personality?

·

It was already past midnight when the two returned home.

Xie Shiwei felt that Wang Guanjia was getting old, and staying up late was bad for his health. He must have already gone to bed, so he went upstairs with He Qin with peace of mind.

Who knew that Wang Guanjia was standing energetically at the bedroom door, scrolling through short videos, occasionally making two duck-like laughs.

He was truly vigorous in his old age.

When Wang Guanjia saw Xie Shiwei, he greeted him enthusiastically, “Young Master! You’re finally back!”

Then he looked at He Qin with dissatisfaction, “The young master kindly brought President He supper, and it took more than three hours. President He is busy with official duties and can handle it himself. Why drag our young master along, preventing him from resting?”

“Uncle Wang, don’t talk nonsense. I was the one who wanted to stay, it has nothing to do with him!” Xie Shiwei sighed, “Don’t always complain about He Qin in the future. Many things are what I asked for. It’s unfair to always blame him, and it’s also like causing trouble for me.”

Wang Guanjia pouted and slowly lowered his head, “Okay, Young Master, you’ve grown up. You’re not the little child who needed me to coax him to sleep anymore. I’m just being nosy, disturbing Young Master and President He.”

Raising his head again, Wang Guanjia’s triangular eyes were wet, paired with a long face full of wrinkles, it was especially desolate.

Xie Shiwei was shocked.

Was Wang Guanjia so emotionally rich!

He comforted him for a long time, and Wang Guanjia wiped away his tears, “Alright, Young Master, hurry up and wash up. I’ll heat up the medicine and bring it up later.”

After the two finished washing up one after the other, Wang Guanjia also heated up the medicine, hummed a little tune, and went upstairs, knocking on the door on the dot, “Young Master, the medicine is here, I’m coming in!”

Xie Shiwei raised his voice and said, “Wait a minute,” signaling He Qin to move a little closer to him.

He Qin leaned towards the middle of the bed.

The two shared a down silk quilt, their arms occasionally touching, the body temperature spreading along the fabric.

“Okay,” Xie Shiwei shouted towards the door, “Come in.”

Wang Guanjia entered the door and put the tray on the table, “President He, the young master ran so far to deliver food to you today, you should also do something for the young master. If you take care of each other, I can explain it to Chairman Xie.”

He Qin was impatient, “What can I do? Drink the medicine for him?”

“There’s no poison in this medicine, you don’t need to test it,” Wang Guanjia scoffed, stuffing a spoon into He Qin’s hand, “You can feed the young master.”

Xie Shiwei pointed at the dark medicine bowl and protested, “Uncle Wang! This is medicine, not a drink. You want He Qin to feed me spoonful by spoonful, do you want to make me suffer to death?”

“No, Young Master,” Wang Guanjia explained with a smile, “Doctor Huang called today and said that this medicine is cold in nature, and pouring it down at once can easily damage your stomach. Your stomach isn’t good to begin with, and the madam also said to drink it slowly.”

With one sentence, he brought out two great Buddhas.

He Qin was too lazy to continue listening to their bickering, got out of bed neatly, and picked up the medicine bowl, “Come and drink it, just endure the bitterness.”

Xie Shiwei knew that He Qin’s patience was limited, so he had to go over and drink.

He was wearing a dark red pajamas, his skin even whiter against the red clothes and black hair, the silky fabric clung to his body, adding a touch of charm to him. He had just washed his face, and a drop of water slid down his jawline, hanging on his delicate chin for a long time.

He Qin saw the dangling water drop and wiped it away casually.

Xie Shiwei’s skin was warm and smooth.

He wiped the water stain from his fingertip and froze for a moment.

Why did he help Xie Shiwei wipe away the water drop?

What did it matter to him what Xie Shiwei’s skin was like?

Heh, it must be because he lived with Xie Shiwei and was contaminated by his lack of boundaries.

Xie Shiwei also froze for a moment.

Could it be that his efforts were already showing initial results so quickly?

If it was a kind gesture, it must mean that He Qin didn’t hate him as much as before.

A good sign!

The two were distracted, and Wang Guanjia was also overjoyed, believing that the blind He Qin would eventually not be able to resist the charm of his young master, and that his cold appearance was just him being stubborn!

Xie Shiwei was the first to come back to his senses, tugging on He Qin’s sleeve, urging him to feed him the medicine quickly.

He Qin then scooped up a spoonful of medicine and brought it to his mouth.

He Qin was standing and feeding the medicine, the position of the spoon was a little high, so Xie Shiwei reached out and pressed down on He Qin’s wrist, leaning forward and drinking it mouthful by mouthful.

He Qin lowered his eyes.

Xie Shiwei’s rosy lips were covered with brown medicine, his throat bobbing up and down. Although he didn’t say it was bitter, his gradually furrowed brows and flushed cheeks showed that he was suffering a lot from the bitterness.

Xie Shiwei swallowed the last mouthful, baring his teeth and grimacing. Wang Guanjia brought a candy at the right time, “Young Master, this is imported hawthorn candy.”

Xie Shiwei reached out to take it gratefully, Wang Guanjia flicked his wrist and passed the candy to He Qin with a swish, “President He, please open it.”

He Qin peeled open the candy wrapper, and a crystal clear hawthorn candy rested in his palm. The texture of the candy was very beautiful under the light, like a dark red gem.

Xie Shiwei reached out to take it again, Wang Guanjia stopped him again, saying quietly, “President He, you should feed him to the end.”

He Qin sneered, pinched the candy, and placed it on Xie Shiwei’s lips.

Xie Shiwei’s mouth was really bitter, so he grabbed He Qin’s hand and went up to eat the candy, biting the candy shell hard. The sour and sweet taste of hawthorn instantly filled his mouth, finally covering up the bitter taste of the medicine.

Xie Shiwei said “mm” and exclaimed that it was really sweet, his lips curved into a big arc, looking very satisfied and innocent.

He looked particularly harmless.

He Qin’s fingertips were brushed by Xie Shiwei’s lips, feeling a little hot, and he took out a wet wipe to wipe his hands.

Xie Shiwei brushed his teeth and came back, He Qin hadn’t finished wiping his hands yet.

His footsteps paused.

He was too unreserved when eating the candy just now, and probably accidentally touched He Qin’s hand. He couldn’t remember whether his mouth touched it or the tip of his tongue, but judging from He Qin’s effort in wiping his hands, it should be the tip of his tongue.

What was wrong with licking it once?

Was it necessary to wipe his hands for five minutes?

Xie Shiwei made a face at He Qin’s back with disdain, but before the tip of his tongue that he stuck out could be retracted, He Qin turned around unexpectedly.

Xie Shiwei was startled, biting the tip of his tongue hard, his eyes full of tears.

“You’ve already eaten the candy, why are you still crying?” He Qin said reflexively, thinking that Xie Shiwei was about to pester him and make him coax him, and took three steps back.

Xie Shiwei explained with tears in his eyes, “I’m not crying, my tongue is numb from eating the candy, I’m biting it.”

“You’re biting it even though it’s numb?”

“Fight poison with poison, if I bite it hard, it won’t be numb.”

He Qin couldn’t answer, picked up his laptop, and turned to walk towards the theater.

Xie Shiwei wanted to (make a good impression), so he followed He Qin into the theater.

The theater had a foldable huge sofa bed, the backrest could be adjusted in height, and it was wide and large after being laid flat, but the comfort was definitely not comparable to his bed.

He Qin turned on the floor lamp by the bed and started processing emails that were in different time zones.

His profile lines were sharp, and his high, straight nose was framed by gold-rimmed glasses. He frowned unintentionally when looking at the computer, he was indeed very abstinent.

Xie Shiwei simped for a while, then despised himself fiercely, constantly reminding himself that this person was bad for his stomach. After a long time, he carefully sat down next to He Qin, three body lengths apart.

He Qin asked, “Something wrong?”

Xie Shiwei propped up his face and smiled gently, “Nothing, I just came to see your sleeping environment.”

He Qin ignored him, his fingers quickly tapping the keyboard, and strings of English appeared on the computer screen.

Xie Shiwei secretly wow-ed.

He finished his CET-4 and CET-6 in his freshman year, and although his scores were very high, he never studied English again. Now it actually took him a while to figure out what He Qin’s emails meant.

Amitabha, learning is really a practice that regresses if you don’t advance.

After He Qin sent the email, he closed the computer, “This room is so big, you should have finished looking at it, right? Go out after you’ve finished looking.”

Xie Shiwei endured He Qin’s coldness, “I still want to explain to you, I didn’t intentionally lick you just now, I didn’t mean to seduce you in any way, don’t misunderstand.”

The disappearing touch reappeared, soft, with a hint of warmth.

He Qin was inexplicably irritable and didn’t tell the truth, “You didn’t lick me.”

“Didn’t I?” Xie Shiwei was surprised, and then resentful, “Then why did you wipe your hands for five minutes?”

He Qin said, “I didn’t wipe my hands for five minutes, and I wiped my hands because the taste of the candy was too strong.”

“I see,” Xie Shiwei scratched his head, “I thought you thought I was disgusting.”

“No.” He Qin issued an eviction order, “Go back to sleep.”

“Oh,” Xie Shiwei reached out and pressed the sofa bed, “But this bed is really not as comfortable as mine, why don’t you go sleep in the bedroom today?”
