C6 Just an Ordinary Friend

The Phoenix District was an extremely old residential area located in the center of A City. Last year, all of the residential areas were planned to be a large commercial plaza. The residents had all moved away from the area, and the number of families that had yet to move could be counted on ten fingers.

Because most of the homes had been moved away, the neighborhood now looked ruined, littered with discarded furniture and garbage. Living in such an environment, it would be a lie to say that I'm not afraid when I return home in the middle of the night.

"Kacha ~ ~"

The rotten metal door opened, and Dou Zhi fell asleep on Ye Wen Xin's back. The sound of the door opening did not alarm her in the slightest.

He held his daughter in one arm and the giant teddy bear in the other. She didn't even need to look at herself in the mirror to imagine how she looked right now.

The thought of going up to the fifth floor made her want to die.

"Holy sh * t, moving a house actually took away the light bulb. Can you not be so stingy?" He shone the flashlight on his phone and saw that the lampstand was empty. Ye Ying was furious.

She had no choice but to put her phone in her mouth for the light. She didn't want to fall down with the bear in her path.

She cursed the neighbor with the light bulb in her mind while she silently climbed the stairs. When she was about to climb to the fifth floor, a strange thought suddenly flashed across her mind.

She stopped and looked up.

In the darkness, a dot of scarlet flickered. At the same time, the faint aroma of tobacco wafted up from her nose.

Ye Ying's heart skipped a beat, but he still calmly shone the light up with the phone in his mouth.

A pair of straight trousers, an elegant suit, a handsome yet indifferent face, and a pair of deep eyes that seemed unable to be seen through.

The phone in her mouth fell to the ground with a "pa da" sound, and before her eyes was darkness once again. Only the red dot remained there, soundlessly shining.

The sound of a man's leather shoes suddenly filled the stairwell. One step, one step down.

The scarlet dot was gone. At this distance, Ye Yingxin could already see it clearly. He was the one who extinguished the cigarette butt and threw it onto the ground.

This must be a dream.

Ye Yingxin closed his eyes.

It must be a dream, she told herself. Or she was drunk and hallucinating. But even if she was drunk, how could the person she saw in her imagination be him? It shouldn't be his!

Thinking that he couldn't even escape his hallucination, Ye Hengxin suddenly felt a sense of sadness rising from the bottom of his heart.

She slowly opened her eyes.

But it wasn't an illusion, and it wasn't a dream.

The man was still with her. He just stared at her.

Do you want to say hello? How can I greet you? Ye Hengxin did not even know if he should call him Mister Shen or Mister Cheng.

Forget it, it's better not to greet him.

She turned her head and tried to slip past him.

But the stairs were too narrow, and she was halfway there when the teddy bear stopped her.

"Ugh …"

"..." "Troublesome, give way." She was forced to speak, lowering her head and not looking at him.

The man did not make things difficult for her and moved to the side to give way.

Sensing that he could pass, Ye Hen did not know why, but he felt a sense of loss. She hurriedly put away the feeling of loss as if she had set up a cage in her heart, locking every single detail about this man within her, even the slightest bit of his fluctuating emotions.

Very quickly, she passed through the stairs and rushed into her own house as if she had seen a ghost.

Peng! He closed the door, forgetting about the weight of his hand and waking the bean sprout up.

"..." "Mom." She woke up rubbing her eyes.

Ye Yingxin let out a long sigh and threw the teddy bear on the ground. Then, he carried the bean sprout into the room. "Did your mother wake you up because of the loud sound of the door closing?"

The young bean sprout is still very sleepy. She rolled over on the bed and nodded vaguely.

After comforting the young bean sprout, it was already half an hour before his daughter fell asleep again. The scene on the staircase had also been deliberately forgotten by her. After leaving the room, she cooked a bowl of noodles for herself and carried it to the living room. Just as he was about to sit down and eat, something unexpected happened and he actually took a glance at the entrance.

Is he still out there?

Why did he come back?

Judging from his appearance, he should be living quite well now, right? If that's right, why did he come back?

With her head full of questions that made her lose her appetite, she stood up and told herself that she just wanted to see if he was still there, whether he was or not, and after that one look, she would come back home for noodles, go to bed after the noodles, and then get up and go to work, like any other day in the past.

As he slowly made his way to the entrance, Ye Hengxin's heart was firmly gripped. She didn't know what she was expecting, what else to expect.

Just as he was about to look at the peephole, he suddenly heard knocking sounds coming from the door.

Ye Yingxin was stunned for a long time, and finally reached out and grabbed the doorknob, giving it a light twist.

"…"

"…"

At the end of the door was him.

Ye Hengxin's mouth was parched, he looked away, trying his best to maintain a calm tone, "Excuse me, who are you looking for?"

"Ye Guanxin." He said three words.

Ye Yingxin's chest felt like it was being grabbed by someone, and it was hard for him to even breathe. She stood there in a daze, not knowing how to respond.

The man waited for a while, but didn't hear a response from her. He then added, "I'm looking for Ye Jianxin."

"She's not here." Ye Hen regained his senses, and immediately replied.

"When will she be back?" he asked.

Ye Yingxin resisted the pain in his eyes and fiercely replied, "She won't come back."

"Is that so?" The man looked at the house behind her and smiled. "Then I'll go in and wait for her." As he said that, he grabbed her shoulders and pulled her aside, ignoring the fact that Ye Yingxin was still blocking the door. Then, he went in without saying a word.

Ye Ying's heart was filled with anger, "Hey, Cheng Hanming, I said she won't come back!"

"She will come back." He turned his head and said with a trace of certainty in his black eyes, "Also, my name is Shen Hanshi."

Ye Wen's heart skipped a beat. He took a big step forward, "Do I call you Cheng Hanjin or Shen Hanjin? In short, we do not welcome you here!"

"Noodle soup?"

The only response she got was Shen Hanming's extremely soft words. Then, Ye Hengxin saw this man shamelessly sit in front of her bowl, picking up her chopsticks and eating her noodles.

"…" What was going on?

"Mr. Cheng, this is my noodles." F * ck, that's not the point. Ye Hen silently ridiculed himself, and in a few steps, he walked in front of Shen Hanshi, "What are you doing back here?"

Shen Han gracefully ate a bowl of noodles, not replying to her.

Ye Wen felt his heart go mad. In fact, her heart had begun to race when she met him at the dress shop. She was used to hiding her emotions, so she didn't even notice it herself.

She hated him, hated him. It wasn't just because he had played with her and mocked her in front of others.

With his arms on the table, Ye Yingxin could not help but want to use his old tone to stab him, "What's the matter, Mr. Shen, isn't your fiancée the renowned talented girl in the jewelry industry, Miss Jing Ting? "Could it be that she won't even give you a bite of the noodles?"

In her opinion, these words were already rather unpleasant to hear. However, she didn't expect the man who was being mocked would still calmly eat his noodles, completely ignoring her.

"Shen Han Chen!" Ye Hen shouted loudly.

Probably too loud, the room creaked and peeked out the little bean sprout's fluffy head. She sprawled on the doorframe. "Mom..." Are you calling me bean sprout? "
