Chapter 35: This matter wouldn’t be related to that matter, right?

A summer afternoon, it had just rained, the fresh air in the pleasantly cool summer wind, originally this is a good weather to go out. Unfortunately, Du Lei Si was sitting at home drawing circles.

Why you may ask?

Because she’s bored!

With a plaster leg, staying at home all day, even if her foot is fine, the person who’s trapped at home is almost suffocated to death!

For this reason, Du Lei Si is very depressed.

A depressed person always wanted to find someone to talk to, but as luck would have it, unfortunately Aunty Wu has accompanied Liang Liang to cram school, while Old Yu has gone to the hospital to take care of the old Madame, even Xiao Fang who usually wash the cars have gone on a blind date, such a huge house… there was only her left, the emptiness made her somewhat depressed.

Du Lei Si took out her cell phone and started to go through her phone book.

Zhu Yao Fei? This morning she have already called her, if she calls again isn’t she seeking to be scold?! Not calling!

Jie Mo Shuang? She has been absent for so many days, although there’s the President to support her, but if people ask how should she answer their questions? Forget it.

Mom? No, she absolutely can not let her mom know about her fracture, she would be worried to death, she definitely can not call!

So she scrolled down her phone book and finally landed on a number—— the President.

Seeing these words, Du Lei Si’s mood became more depressed.

The situation is like this, ever since she rested at home due to her fracture, clearly she spends more time at home, however she felt that she has seen much less of the President.

Usually the President always return home from work around five or six o’clock, they would have a meal together, after dinner, sometimes he would look over a file or two while the two of them would watched TV together. Roughly around eleven o’clock they would get ready for bed, sleeping until seven o’clock the next day they’ll get up, they would eat breakfast together, and then he’ll go to work, their life was very regular.

She didn’t know why, but lately he seems to be extremely busy.

In the evening, he would return home around eight or nine o’clock. There were a few days when she has fallen asleep he still haven’t returned. In the morning when she woke up, the person besides was long gone, when she came downstairs, often there’s only her share of breakfast left on the dinning table. Also, the amount of time the two saw each other decreased, the topic they spoke of also decreased, often when they were together, the two of them hardly talked about anything.

Such days like these lasted for about a week, Du Lei Si’s obtuse heart finally developed a strange trace. Although its understandable that the President would be busy, but why does her heart always have the feeling of being ignored….?

When Du Lei Si regain her conscious, the cell phone within her hands displayed a familiar phone number on the screen, her fingers slightly trembled on the call b.u.t.ton, she hesitated whether she should press down or not.

Forget it! She should just call and ask…. Have you had lunch yet?

Once her head heated up, she pressed call.

The phone rang a few times before someone answered, Lian Jun’s m.u.f.fled voice came through: “h.e.l.lo?”

Hearing his voice, all the words Du Lei Si have carefully thought of was completely forgotten, she held onto the cell phone in a daze.

“What’s wrong? What’s the matter?” His voice was low without any feelings attached.

“No…nothing….just…just…”

She hesitated to finish her sentence when he impatiently interrupted her: “If it’s nothing then I’m hanging up.” He paused before adding, “I’m currently in a meeting.”

“Ah! Terribly… terribly sorry to bother you.”After Du Lei Si said this, she hastily hung up the phone call.

After hanging up the phone call, she was distracted for a while, after a few seconds she was in a dreamy state.

Why did she naively called the President? Anyone was stupid enough to know he must be working around this time, there’s no doubt he’ll have a lot of things to… she rather baffling decided to disturb him, who would be a good mood? Du Lei Si ah Du Lei Si, you’ve been living for 20 years as a human, how can you so be gullible?

In her heart she laughed at herself, she embarra.s.sedly smiled, her heart-felt congested.

Du Lei Si shook her head, blaming the d.a.m.n bone fractures causing her to idle at home and start indulging in fantasies. As the old saying goes one making various fancies and conjectures will lead to baldness, it best if she finds a movie to watch instead!

Thinking about this, she began search through the DVD’s on the shelf.

Action movie? It’s too exciting, next one!

Horror movie? A person alone watching a horror film? It’s too sinful!

An artist romance movie? Too sour….

So, she went through the pile for half a days and finally she landed on a comedy movie, and her eyes brighten! Why don’t she watch a comedy to cure her boredom?

So filled with antic.i.p.ation, Du Lei Si put the disc into the DVD player.

The movie tells the story of an older man going on a blind date those younger than him, during his dates he encounters all kinds of circ.u.mstances such as h.o.m.os.e.xuality, unmarried mother, a share crazy sea flowers and even a cemeteries sales person. A group of weird people caused the male lead who originally had bald head to luminously s.h.i.+ne brightly.

The cheerfulness lasted for half a day, another blind date appear, a woman whose husband recently pa.s.sed away, she was a good-looking lady, at first their conversation were quite sensible until a more mature topic was arised.

The female lead asked with a serious expression: “Do you think the foundation of love is based on s.e.x?”

The male lead touched his s.h.i.+ny head: “Not entirely, however if there isn’t any then it certainly cannot be called love, at most it’s called friends.h.i.+p.”

Watching to this point, Du Lei Si began to think, between her and the President’s relations.h.i.+p is it romance or friends.h.i.+p??

The problem is too deep, she didn’t want to understand it, the movie’s dialogue continued.

The female lead argued: “What if there isn’t any? Even if there isn’t…. one can still be together until old age ah!” She thought she was absolutely on point and added: “I mean it doesn’t mean s.e.x can not entirely exist, it just won’t occur too often!”

The male lead: “Then how long one must wait to be affectionate that it’s considered not as frequent?”

The female lead stretched out one finger.

The male lead was in a painful state: “Once a month?”

“Once a year!”

“…..” After a moment of silence, the male lead decisively said,” I disagree, I finally understand why your husband hardly returns home, even if you want to marry, you will not find out where I’m living!”

Finally an infinite melancholy music started playing, the female lead said sarcastically: “Unfortunately…. is that thing really that interesting?”

The male lead replied: “Yes….”

While listening to the infinite music, Du Lei Si suddenly realized something.

It’s been almost a month since they’ve XXOO, right?

Recently the President doesn’t seem to want to return home….

If you were to ask her where the President is right now, she really couldn’t give you an answer.

Surely it doesn’t mean that——

Du Lei Si swallowed her saliva and recall the several attempts the President tried to do ‘the thing’, and recall how she used several reasons to s.h.i.+rk away from doing ‘the thing’, when that ‘thing’ didn’t happen…. the President appeared very unhappy….

She’s finished! Could it be this matter wouldn’t be related to that matter?

With this idea, Du Lei Si began to feel uneasy.

In fact, she didn’t intentionally evade the President when he wanted to do ‘that thing’, who told her relatives to arrive unannounced? And now she is still disabled person ah, even disabled people do that thing? 555555…. she didn’t want to think about it any more…..
