Never Meeting Again In Our Next Life (Living Life Over) - Volume 2 (7)
Chapter 7 Cousins
Zhou Shuo walked to the door of Xia Liang’s bedroom and listened, but there was no movement.
He leaned against the wall and was in a daze for a while. After a while, he heard a slight movement inside the door. It seemed that Xia Liang had come out after taking a shower.
Zhou Shuo took a deep breath, knocked on the door and said, “Young Master, have you finished washing?”
”Well, what’s the matter?”? Xia Liang opened the door a crack and was still tying the belt of her bathrobe with both hands.
”Just now…” Zhou Shuo said two words, his eyes fell on Xia Liang, and he found that the smooth and slightly moist skin was exposed under the deep V of Xia Liang’s clothes, and the sweet and rich breath floated out from the crack in the door. Following his breath, it instantly penetrated into his internal organs, limbs and bones.
He took a step back suddenly and covered his nose in embarrassment.
Xia Liang opened the crack of the door, stood up and looked at him, and said without knowing why, “What’s wrong?”
”Just now…Song Yan called just now. It seems there is something urgent. He asked you to call him back later…” Zhou Shuo forcibly grabbed his sense that was about to run away, covered his nose and finished the words in a low voice. , and then he couldn’t wait to run into the public bathroom nearby and closed the door with a bang.
At this time, his heart was beating like a drum, his head was dizzy, and the palms of his hands covering his nose felt a little hot.
He stretched out his other hand and fumbled to press the wall lamp. When he looked up again, he saw his confused eyes in the mirror, and traces of blood were faintly visible between his fingers. He slowly let go of his hand and wiped away the nosebleed with cold water. , and closed his eyes in despair.
Xia Liang was stunned for a moment, then walked over and knocked on the door: “Zhou Shuo, are you okay?”
”…It’s okay.” The sound of running water sounded in the bathroom, vaguely mixed with Zhou Shuo’s very low voice.
”Are you sick?” Xia Liang asked, “You have been feeling very wrong today. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, don’t force yourself. I will take you to the hospital.”
”No, no need…” The sound of rushing water gradually covered Zhou Shuo’s voice.
Growing up, Xia Liang rarely saw Zhou Shuo get sick. Even if he occasionally had a fever or cold, in the eyes of doctors, it was basically a routine physiological detoxification once a year, and he would recover in a day or two.
But this time, Zhou Shuo didn’t look like he had a cold or fever, but rather like… he had a bad stomach?
Xia Liang waited for a while, until the sound of water in the bathroom stopped and Zhou Shuo once again expressed that he was fine, Xia Liang returned to the room and called Song Yan back.
Song Yan quickly answered the call and said with a smile: “Brother Liang, is it already night over there? I’m sorry to disturb you so late.” “If you have anything to say, just say it.”
”It’s like this. My mother said that I have a distant cousin who will go to City B tomorrow and asked me to take good care of him. But I’m abroad now and I don’t have any other relatives or friends in City B. After much thought, I had to ask Liang Brother, please take care of me for the time being.”
Xia Liang asked: “What did your cousin come to B city for?”
”Well… he’s an actor, I don’t know for sure. I heard from my mother that he has been in the industry for a few years, but he is still not popular at the moment. I heard that there will be an open audition for a drama in B City recently. , it may last for more than half a month, and he can’t find a place to stay in City B for a while, so…”
”I understand.” Xia Liang agreed happily, “Send me your cousin’s name and contact information later, and I will help him make arrangements.
Not long after Xia Liang hung up the phone, he received relevant information about his distant cousin from Song Yan.
His cousin’s name was Ji Qin. Xia Liang went to the Internet to search and found that this young man was handsome and handsome. He looked a bit handsome in a few photos. He had starred in several idol dramas produced with a low cost, and the ratings were not high, but It’s not like he’s going out on the street. Over the past few years, he has accumulated a certain fan base. Judging from the way he is laughing and letting himself go with his fans on Weibo, he should be a young man with a cheerful and out-of-the-box personality.
Xia Liang took a cursory look at the person’s profile, thought for a moment, and then took the initiative to make a call.
”Hello, who’s there?” The other party answered the phone in a polite manner.
”Hello, I’m Song Yan’s… friend, Xia Liang.” Xia Liang concealed the relationship between him and Song Yan, “I believe Song Yan has already mentioned it to you. When you come to B City tomorrow, you can go first.” Come to the company to find me, and the company address will be sent to you shortly.”
The other party was stunned for two seconds before reacting. He was somewhat flattered and thanked you repeatedly: “It’s so troublesome for you!”
”No trouble,” Xia Liang smiled, “Tomorrow… maybe I have something else to trouble you with.”
The other party was startled again, and just as he was about to ask, Xia Liang said, “? Well, let’s do this for now. I’ll call you tomorrow. You can call my number directly.”
After hanging up the phone, Xia Liang opened the door and saw that Zhou Shuo hadn’t come out of the bathroom yet. He was afraid that something had happened to him, so he knocked on the door again: “Zhou Shuo, how are you?”
”No…” Under the dim light, Zhou Shuo moved his hands and tried his best to suppress his breathing.
”You’ve been in there for almost half an hour,” Xia Liang said, “Are you feeling hungry?”
Zhou Shuo listened to Xia Liang’s voice, closed his eyes and recalled how he looked in his bathrobe. He suddenly shuddered all over and released the heat in his hand.
After breathing for a moment, he managed to calm down his mind and whispered: “Young Master, I really have nothing to do. Please leave me alone and go to bed first.”
Xia Liang stood outside the door and listened, but really couldn’t hear anything. She thought that if Zhou Shuo was really hungry, wouldn’t it be very embarrassing for him to keep asking questions outside?
Thinking of this, Xia Liang couldn’t continue to ask more questions, and warned: “There are gastrointestinal medicines on the locker, please remember to take them later.”
”…Okay.” Zhou Shuo sighed silently.
