Xie Yin had an internal staff meeting in the evening.
Originally, he planned to go to the study for a meeting after delivering hot milk to Xia Li, but because of what happened just now that caught him off guard, he had to make a special trip to the master bedroom on the third floor.
As a result, the originally scheduled meeting time had to be extended by half an hour.
The sound of gurgling water came from the bathroom, and the man's strong chest was exposed in the mist-shrouded bathroom.
The waist and abdomen are clearly defined, the mermaid line is sexy, and the strong eight-pack abs are fully displayed.
His muscular arms were supported on the slightly cold tiles. The man lowered his head slightly and closed his deep eyes impatiently.
He let the shower head above his head continuously spray out cold water droplets on his body, trying to relieve the evil thoughts in his heart.
The man standing under the shower head had slightly red eyes. He raised his head and the cold water droplets slowly slid down his angular face and fell on his sexy collarbone and chest.
The Adam's apple, which was unreservedly exposed to the dense air, rolled up and down restrainedly.
A restrained groan escaped the man's throat, which was perfectly covered up by the sound of water dripping continuously.
In the dead of night, the sound of water pouring from the bathroom could be clearly heard in the quiet room.
If you prick up your ears and listen carefully, you can vaguely hear a low, restrained hum coming from the bathroom.
I don't know how long it took before the sound of water in the bathroom completely disappeared.
The man stepped out of the shower room, stretched out his long arm to grab a clean bath towel from the side and wrapped it around his lower body.
The cool water droplets on the tips of his hair dripped on his chest skin exposed to the air, leaving a shallow water mark as it slowly slid down.
Xie Yin raised his hand and casually pushed back the broken hair on his forehead. He stood in front of the sink and looked at himself in the mirror, and then slightly lowered his eyes to look at the desire covered by the white bath towel. He sighed in frustration.
He closed his tired eyes, and after a long time he opened the bathroom door and walked out.
Xie Yin walked to the bedside and took out the cigarette box that was thrown carelessly on the bedside table. He frowned slightly and took out a slender cigarette from the box, holding it between his fingertips, and walked to the balcony of the house.
Xie Yin stood on the balcony, letting the cool night wind blow his hair that he had not had time to dry.
As if he didn't care at all, he put the cigarette between his fingertips into his mouth, lowered his head slightly and lit the end of the cigarette with a metal cigarette lighter.
The man took a deep breath and slowly exhaled the cigarette from his mouth. The bluish-white smoke was quickly blown away by the cool breeze.
He raised his head slightly and looked at the crescent moon in the night, squinting slightly.
Because of this incident, Xie Yin had insomnia almost all night.
So when Xia Li sat at the dining table to have breakfast the next day, she could clearly see the tired look on the man's face.
Xia Li took a sip of the porridge in the bowl and whispered with concern:
"Mr. Xie, I see that you don't look very good. Did you not get any rest last night?"
Hearing this, Xie Yin's hand that was about to hold the coffee paused slightly.
The sharp-eyed Xia Li keenly caught a hint of discomfort from the man's face for the first time. Before she could think about it, she heard the man sitting opposite her cough lightly.
A low, slightly hoarse voice came into her ears unhurriedly:
"Didn't get enough rest."
The man in front of him looked normal, but if you listened carefully, you would notice a trace of discomfort in the man's tone.
Fortunately, Xia Li was a rough guy and didn't care so much.
He just nodded obediently, lowered his head and continued to drink the porridge in the bowl in front of him.
Xia Li eats very slowly.
So much so that Xie Yin had already gone upstairs to change her clothes and came down, and she was still sitting at the dining table, sipping porridge.
Noticing the man walking down the stairs, Xia Li quietly raised her eyelids and glanced at the man walking towards her while buttoning up his black suit.
When Xie Yin took off his lazy gray home clothes and put on his usual serious and rigid suit.
She could clearly feel that the man's laziness seemed to be completely restrained by this black suit.
And the man, at this moment, became the aloof head of the Xie family in the eyes of everyone in the past.
Xie Yin walked to the dining table and lowered his eyes slightly to meet the girl's clear gaze.
The man's Adam's apple rolled up and down restrainedly, and he said calmly:
"I went to work at the company."
Xia Li lowered his gaze and nodded silently.
After Xie Yin left, Xia Li sat on the small round table in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the room with his computer as usual, intending to complete the finishing work of the order he had just received.
Near noon, Xia Li unexpectedly received a call from Ji Cheng.
Ji Cheng on the other end of the phone sounded a little anxious, saying that Xie Yin was sent to the hospital because of a low fever and recurrence of stomach problems.
The moment Xia Li heard the news, he put down his work almost without thinking, ran downstairs and asked Aunt Zhou to help cook some stomach-nourishing porridge, and hurriedly took him to the hospital.
While watching Aunt Zhou busy in the kitchen, Xia Li learned a lot about Xie Yin's previous bad habits from Aunt Zhou.
For example, Xie Yin didn't like breakfast at all before.
It was only after he got stomach problems later that he corrected this problem.
Another example is that sometimes when I get busy, I almost never eat three meals a day on time.
But it makes sense that I don't eat three meals a day on time. After all, I am very busy.
But...this is the first time Xia Li has heard of not liking breakfast.
In her impression of Xie Yin, he should be a person who pays great attention to three meals a day and his own body.
No matter what, he should be as self-disciplined as those domineering presidents in novels.
When Xia Li rushed to the hospital, Ji Chenggang arranged for Xie Yin, who had a low fever, to be put in the VIP ward to get water.
"Assistant Ji, how is he?"
Ji Cheng took the thermos box from Xia Li's hand. Xia Li stood at the door and glanced at the man resting in the room with his eyes open and closed, and lowered his voice.
Ji Chengdao: "The doctor said it was because I was too tired these days, had an irregular diet and caught a cold, which led to the recurrence of fever and stomach problems."
Hearing this, Xia Li frowned slightly.
Although the weather in Beijing is approaching the end of summer, it is still hot enough to make people sweat.
Why do you always catch a cold...
Before Xia Li could think about it, Ji Cheng's sigh came to his ears:
"The company is very busy these days, and the boss is also very busy with new projects..."
Xie Yin’s newly established AI software department has recently received unanimously good responses at home and abroad.
However, as AI software that wants to open up the entire world, it is still far from meeting the standards.
In addition, due to some competitive pressure from Xie Beixiao, Xie Yin had to hold meetings in the software department every day to strive to develop AI technology to a point where Xie Beixiao could not fight back before Xie Beixiao left. situation.
But this is often difficult.
At present, looking at the whole country and abroad, there is almost no AI software that everyone thinks is easy to use or is an impeccable AI software.
Even though the software development they have now has received a lot of praise, Xie Yin knows that it is definitely not that simple to reach the end of AI.
"You go back first."
Xia Li saw that Ji Cheng's eyes were slightly green, and he must have not rested for several days.
"I can just come here," Xia Li smiled slightly, "Go back and rest."
After Ji Cheng left, Xia Li walked to the bedside.
She leaned down slightly and reached out with the back of her hand to feel the temperature of the man's forehead.
The fever has not completely subsided.
Just when Xia Li wanted to take away the hand on the man's forehead, the man lying on the hospital bed suddenly opened his eyes.
Her eyes met the man's deep, ink-like eyes unexpectedly.
Xia Li was suddenly startled.
He even forgot to take back the hand that was placed on the man's forehead.
"Huh?" A dry voice escaped from the man's throat, "Li Li is..."
Before he finished speaking, Xia Li quickly took back the hand on the man's forehead.
"I, I," Xia Li explained in a panic, "I just want to see if your fever has gone down..."
Xie Yin coughed a few times and raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "Really?"
"Y-yeah."
Obviously at the beginning she simply wanted to test whether the man's fever had gone down, but for some reason she felt guilty in her heart when the man asked her this question.
Xia Li's ears turned a faint blush.
"Then my fever has gone away, Li Li?"
I don't know if it was because of illness, but the man's originally deep and melodious voice was tainted with a bit of softness, which made Xia Li's heart move.
Xia Li swallowed, and the blush in her ears quietly climbed onto her cheeks:
"Not yet, not yet."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a chuckle escape from the man's throat.
Her eyelashes trembled a few times, and she was worried that she would blush completely if she stayed any longer, so she escaped from the ward on the pretext of pouring water.
"I-I'm going to pour some hot water first, and um, don't forget to drink the porridge."
Seeing the girl running away with the hot water bottle, Xie Yin helplessly curled his lips and chuckled.
Why is he blushing like this before he says anything?
Then...what's the point?
Xia Li took the kettle and poured some hot water into the tea room. When he turned around and walked out of the tea room, he bumped into Chu Wang who was walking towards him.
"Li Li?"
There was some surprise in Chu Wang's tone.
"Brother Chu Wang." Out of politeness, Xia Li responded with a smile.
"Why are you here?" Chu Wang's eyes fell on the hot water bottle in Xia Li's hand, "Uncle and aunt are sick?"
"No," Xia Li shook his head, "Just... uh..."
She hesitated for a moment and found that some of the names that appeared in her mind were so hot that she couldn't say them out, so she could only say:
"A friend is not feeling well."
"That's right," Chu Wang smiled gracefully, "I'm here to see a friend."
As he spoke, he pointed to the man in a white coat standing next to him and introduced to Xia Li:
"His name is Cui Mingyuan. I'm thinking of letting him and my sister meet in a few days."
Because of Chu Wang's words, Xia Li suddenly remembered what Chu Shishi said before, saying that Chu Wang wanted to introduce his brother to her.
Xia Li looked up and down at Cui Mingyuan next to Chu Wang, and felt that this one should be the type that Chu Shishi would like.
"Hello Dr. Cui."
"Hello." Cui Mingyuan raised his hand and pushed the frame of his glasses.
"Then I won't disturb you anymore," Xia Li said with a smile, "I'm going back to the ward first."
After all, Xie Yin hasn't had lunch yet, and she has to go back to take care of him.
Chu Wang nodded and said hello softly.
He turned his head slightly and looked at Xia Li's back as he left, with a faint smile in his eyes.
Until he saw her opening the door to the ward not far away and walking in, completely disappearing from his sight, Chu Wang still seemed to have not recovered from it.
Cui Mingyuan on the side seemed to be able to see directly through his mind, and couldn't help but joked:
"Do you like this person?"
