Xiaoyu offered to wash the dishes, giving Chen Kai a chance to rest.
He sat on the sofa, and his phone rang.
He looked at the incoming call, a phone number with no name saved.
Chen Kai answered it.
Then, a woman with a very pleasant voice spoke from the other end; she was the general manager of Meili Internet Cafe.
"Is this Mr. Chen?"
They chatted on the phone for more than ten minutes.
"Alright, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, he prepared to go out.
Qin Xiaoyu, who had just come out of the kitchen, had already cleaned the dishes and chopsticks and even swept the floor; there was almost nothing to fault.
Honestly, Qin Xiaoyu didn't have the flaws of some female protagonists in TV dramas, like being arrogant, dramatic, or blocking calls when she got angry, or constantly complaining like a resentful woman full of negative energy all day long; she had none of that.
Qin Xiaoyu was full of positive emotions, happy every day, and simply a ray of sunshine.
Especially the way she eagerly ran off to clean the dishes and chopsticks earlier.
She looked like a little minion.
At this moment, she put her hands on her hips and said to Chen Kai, "Old Chen, haha, hurry and praise me! I just cleaned all the dishes and chopsticks, and I even wiped down the table inside!"
"See how well I performed? Old Chen, what have you decided?"
Qin Xiaoyu really didn't want to go back to Fengtian; the key was that her parents weren't home. They had gone abroad for their honeymoon and wouldn't be back for two months.
By then, her university would probably be starting.
Staying home alone for these two months of Summer Vacation would be too boring!
Absolutely not.
So she wondered if she could spend the two months of Summer Vacation at Old Chen's house?
"Old Chen, please!" Qin Xiaoyu pleaded with a naive expression.
Actually, if Xiaoyu stayed at his house for these two months.
Then this Summer Vacation would be much more interesting.
Before Chen Kai could answer, Xiaoyu added another sentence.
"Oh right, Old Chen, who were you just talking to on the phone? Auntie?"
"No, a friend, I guess. He asked me to meet him at Starbucks across from the Plaza; there's something we need to discuss."
"I'll be going out in a bit."
Qin Xiaoyu was still pondering, a friend? What friend?
Before Qin Xiaoyu could say anything, Chen Kai added, "Later, Xiaoyu, you should also go to the supermarket downstairs and buy some daily necessities. You're staying with me; don't you need to buy some things for yourself for the two months of Summer Vacation?"
"Hmm, you're right!" Qin Xiaoyu nodded.
Then, with a naive expression, it took her a while to react, "What!! Old Chen, do you mean you agree to let me spend the Summer Vacation at your house?!"
"Old Chen, you truly are my best brother, I love you to death!!"
"I knew you wouldn't refuse me."
"Old Chen, you're really something." Qin Xiaoyu's reaction time was indeed a bit slow.
"But don't worry, I, Qin Xiaoyu, can't say much else, but my character is reliable. I can help with housework normally!" Qin Xiaoyu patted her chest.
"Say what you want, but stop patting. It's already small enough, and you're still patting."
"Huh?" Qin Xiaoyu looked bewildered, taking a long time to react, "Old Chen, what do you mean? Can you stop saying I'm small? Just you wait and see, when I go to the supermarket to buy daily necessities later, I'll definitely buy more milk and some papayas. I'll eat them every day, every day, I refuse to believe it!"
"By then, don't be scared to death when they get big."
Qin Xiaoyu said in a playfully fierce manner.
