The next day, Jiang Sui set the alarm to wake up early so that he could buy breakfast for everyone.

She couldn't just stay here and watch them work while doing nothing.

When Jiang Sui opened the door, he saw Haozi lying on the sofa with his long legs half drooping on the floor.

Jiang Sui closed the door quietly and glanced around the small living room.

Without seeing Si Nian, Xie Xingzhou fell asleep with his face on the table.

Jiang Sui saw a pile of waste paper under his feet, which was very annoying.

Si Nian always likes things to be clean.

So before going downstairs, Jiang Sui went to Xie Xingzhou and wanted to pick up the pile of paper balls.

But before she squatted down, Xie Xingzhou suddenly woke up. When he saw Jiang Sui in front of him, he sat up straight.

Jiang Sui was also startled by his suddenly opened eyes.

"Well...you continue to sleep, I'll pick up the paper ball and leave."

Xie Xingzhou rubbed his sleepy eyes and nodded.

Jiang Sui squatted down, gathered the paper balls together and put them away, preparing to take them downstairs to throw them away.

"Um, I'm sorry!"

"ah?"

Jiang Sui was stunned by Xie Xingzhou's nonsensical apology early in the morning. She couldn't react for a moment and wondered why he would apologize to her.

"As for that forum, I didn't expect..."

That's right, the post on the forum about him and Jiang Sui fermented so quickly, and in the end the post went completely awry.

But he didn't know all this at first, because he and his friends had no habit of visiting school gossip forums.

If Brother Jiu hadn't come to him yesterday, he wouldn't have known about this post, and it had caused trouble for Brother Jiu's sister.

Only then did he realize that Brother Nine’s sister was really Brother Nine’s sister and not just a casual lover. He had never expected that.

Brother Nine loves his sister very much!

Otherwise, Brother Nine wouldn't have woken him up so early in the morning on National Day and not even let him sleep in.

After hearing what Brother Jiu said about the post, he immediately took out his cell phone to take a look.

But Ninth Brother stopped him with a cold face.

"Don't look at it, it's dark!"

He was stunned after hearing this.

A big shot like Brother Jiu actually took action himself, which shows how much he has lost his patience.

He chuckled and said, "It's just a small matter, just tell me directly."

But Jiu Ge's face was still very dark, and he was given a deadline to help Jiang Sui eliminate the impact before the end of the holiday.

He was secretly wailing in his heart, the food served by beautiful girls really wasn’t tasty!

...

Jiang Sui frowned and thought for a while before reacting.

"The post is not your fault, why are you apologizing?"

Xie Xingzhou thought, no matter whether it was his fault or not, he had to apologize, because he had such a bad mouth!

It just so happened that he ate the meal of Ninth Brother's sister, which caused this series of chain reactions.

"It's all because of me. I'll deal with this matter later. Don't take it to heart."

He said he would take care of it, what would he take care of?

His words made Jiang Sui a little confused, but it was rare to see Xie Xingzhou speaking so seriously today.

In the next three or four days, the three of them were busy day and night.

When I feel very sleepy, I either lie on the table or lie half-lying on the small sofa to catch up on my sleep.

Once, Jiang Sui came out of the bedroom and saw Si Nian sleeping on his side on the floor in front of her door.

How tired he must have been, he couldn't even go back to his own bed, so he just slept like this.

Jiang Sui thought that the vacation was almost over, and it was time for her to go back to school and return his bed to him.

On the morning of October 7, Jiang Sui woke up and saw Si Nian cleaning the living room, but did not see the other two people.

"What about the two of them?"

Jiang Sui was curious and couldn't help but ask Si Nian.

"The outline of the mission is almost complete. I asked them to go back and take a shower and have a good sleep. Otherwise, they are going to make my house stink."

Si Nian replied to her nonchalantly while mopping the floor.

After hearing what he said, Jiang Sui found it a little funny.

When she noticed the dark circles under Si Nian's eyes, she put away the smile.

They both went back to sleep, but Si Nian was still here cleaning up the mess.

Jiang Sui couldn't help but feel sorry for him again.

She hurried over, snatched the mop from his hand and put it aside.

Si Nian was startled by Jiang Sui's sudden action and asked, "What are you doing?"

Jiang Sui gently pushed his back and pushed him to the door.

"They both went back to bed, you should go to bed too! Now, immediately, right now!"

Jiang Sui stood in front of Si Nian, put his hands on his waist and gave the order.

Si Nian was helpless, "I know, I will go to sleep, but you have to let me finish mopping the floor!"

Jiang Sui shook his head, "I'll take care of the hygiene for you, now you just need to go to sleep!"

Seeing that he couldn't defeat her, Si Nian stopped arguing with her.

But when he turned around and pushed open the door, he suddenly remembered something and stopped.

Jiang Sui asked puzzledly behind him, "What's wrong?"

Si Nian turned around to look at her, pulled up his T-shirt, and said awkwardly, "I think... I stink too."

Jiang Sui was stunned for a moment, then smiled and pushed him into the room.

Before she closed the door, Si Nian heard her say to him, "It's okay, I don't mind you no matter what you are like!"

He smiled warmly at the closed door.

The sunlight poured onto the bed through the bedroom window. Smelling the unique scent of Jiang Sui on the quilt, Si Nian slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep in a good mood.

Si Nian slept for such a long time!

After Jiang Sui cleaned up the second floor, in order not to disturb Si Nian's sleep, she went to the first floor to stay with Xiao Hai.

When Xiaohai is busy, she listens to audio in minority languages on her mobile phone by herself.

When Xiao Hai is not busy, she chats with him.

It turned out that Xiao Hai was the person Si Nian met at the police station more than a year ago.

At that time, Xiaohai's grandfather, who depended on him for survival, was in poor health and needed to recuperate.

Xiao Hai went to the market to buy a pigeon for soup, but he didn't bring enough money. Not only did he not buy the pigeon, but he was also framed by the boss as a pigeon thief.

Xiaohai doesn't like studying. He stopped studying after graduating from junior high school. He has been hanging around in society without a job.

But influenced by his grandfather, he has always been an upright child and naturally would not do anything sneaky.

He refused to admit it, so his boss was convinced that he had stolen it and finally reported it to the police station.

Because he was a minor at that time, the police station quickly found Xiaohai's grandfather.

Grandpa Xiaohai couldn't believe that the grandson he raised would do such a thing.

So he kept asking the police to investigate the matter thoroughly and clear Xiaohai's name, and even knelt down in front of the police officer in charge.

The investigators were moved by the old man's sincerity and investigated the case quickly. It turned out that it was the boss's own carelessness that caused the pigeon to escape. The pigeon was finally found in the corner of an adjacent stall.

As soon as the grandfather and grandson came out of the police station that day, they ran into Si Nian who had been waiting outside the door.

Si Nian suggested that Xiao Hai go to his shop, so that he could teach Xiao Hai some repair skills and also relieve some of the pressure in life.

Just like that, from that day on, Xiao Hai has been working as an apprentice in this store. Si Nian taught him everything he knew without reservation, and now he can handle the business of the store independently.

Jiang Sui keenly grasped some information from Xiao Hai's words and asked Xiao Hai, "Why was Sinian in the police station that day?"

Xiao Hai thought for a moment and said, "I'm not sure, maybe he went there to do some business."

Jiang Sui thought about it and realized that he might be overthinking it.

In the afternoon, Xiao Hai took a mobile phone repair job and was busy alone.

Jiang Sui took out his phone to watch a foreign movie, and suddenly a familiar voice asked at the door, "Is Jiang Sui here?"

Hearing the voice, Jiang Sui took off the headphones that Xiao Hai had lent her and looked up at the door.

I saw Mu Nan standing outside the door and looking into the store.

Jiang Sui stood up and walked in front of Mu Nan, his face not looking very good.

"How did you come?"

Mu Nan glanced at Xiao Hai who was working in the store, looked at Jiang Sui and whispered, "Can we go out and talk alone?"

Jiang Sui thought about it and nodded.

Then she was afraid that Si Nian would suddenly wake up and see that she was not there and would worry, so she told Xiao Hai that if Si Nian woke up, she should tell him that she was going out for a while and would be back soon.

Jiang Sui and Mu Nan walked a little further out of the alley and entered a cold drink shop.

At this time, there were not many people in the store, even the clerks were taking a nap.

They each ordered a glass of lemonade and sat down in a secluded corner.

At first, neither of them spoke.

Jiang Sui looked at the time and urged Mu Nan, "Say what you want to say quickly. I have to go back and pack my things."

Jiang Sui spoke first, and Mu Nan stopped being silent.

"Jiang Sui, I came here today to apologize to you."

Mu Nan glanced at Jiang Sui and lowered his head again.

Jiang Sui didn't react after hearing this, he just looked at her quietly.

"I took the post out of context and slandered you after reading it. Xie Xingzhou has already contacted me and explained everything clearly. I was too impulsive that day. I apologize to you. I'm sorry. I hope you can forgive me."

It turns out that this is what Xie Xingzhou said he would deal with.

Jiang Sui had been listening quietly without saying a word.

In fact, what's the point of saying sorry? The relationship between them can never go back to the way it was before.

Once a crisis of trust occurs between friends, the friendship can no longer be maintained.

"It's good that things are clear now. I accept your apology, but I'm afraid we will never be able to get along without any barriers again."

Jiang Sui pursed his lips and looked out the floor-to-ceiling window.

"Mu Nan, why don't you change your dorm? Otherwise, we will be embarrassed to spend every day together!"

Jiang Sui then looked at Mu Nan again, "Or, if you don't want to, Xiao Wen and I can discuss it. We..."

"No, I got it!"

Mu Nan stood up with a grim look on his face and wanted to leave.

"Mu Nan!"

Jiang Sui suddenly called her, and Mu Nan stopped without looking back.

"Mu Nan, if you like someone, you should say it out loud! Instead of treating every member of the opposite sex around him as an imaginary enemy!"

Mu Nan hesitated for a while and said, "I understand, thank you!"

When Jiang Sui returned to the store, Si Nian had already gotten up and was preparing dinner in the kitchen.

Hearing Jiang Sui's footsteps, he didn't turn around, but just asked casually, "Are you back?"

"Um."

Jiang Sui responded and sat down at the dining table.

Knowing that Xie Xingzhou came forward to explain to Mu Nan, Jiang Sui guessed that it must be Si Nian who knew about their affairs and went to find Xie Xingzhou.

It turned out that he didn't say anything, but would silently solve problems for her behind her back.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Sui suddenly spoke and thanked Si Nian in a low voice.

"Thank you, brother!"

Si Nian was busy cutting meat. Hearing her mosquito-like humming sound, he turned his head and frowned at her.

"What?"

Maybe she confused him with her nonsensical thanks.

So Jiang Sui explained seriously, "You know about the post, right? Mu Nan just came to apologize to me."

Si Nian had put down the kitchen knife in his hand and was leaning on the kitchen counter, listening to her quietly.

"I accepted her apology, but also asked her to move out of the dormitory. I can't really forgive someone who insulted my personality. Brother, do you think I am narrow-minded?"

Seeing that the little girl was a little depressed, Si Nian walked over and ruffled her short hair.

"Don't think too much, just be yourself."

Si Nian's words made Jiang Sui fall into new contemplation.

Can anyone really be themselves?

Thinking of Si Nian, Jiang Sui suddenly asked, "What about you? Are you being yourself?"
