Too thin-skinned and easy to lose a wife

Yang Yi was finally persuaded by the two of them. She took away the artwork and said that she would take it home and change it.

Zhao Lu was surprised: "A workaholic, you?"

Yang Yi smiled faintly: "I can't sleep tonight if I can't finish it."

Zhao Lu shrugged and said no more.

Zhou Yang drove in front to lead the way, and Yang Yi's car was behind.Zhao Lu put on his seat belt and said: "Later, if my mother asks you about your relationship status, just say that you already have a boyfriend."

"Why?" Yang Yi was puzzled.

"You don't know my mother. She is now in menopause, and she thinks about being a matchmaker when she has nothing to do every day. If she knows that you are a beautiful woman who is still single, she must be in a hurry to match you and my cousin, or match you and me. Married cousin. If you are afraid of trouble, you'd better listen to me, otherwise you won't be able to enjoy this meal."

Yang Yi slowed down the speed of the car, hesitating: "Since it's so difficult to deal with, why don't I go."

"Don't! There's no reason to go back after it's all out! Oh, blame me, my mother just loves nagging, she is still very kind, don't be afraid."

Yang Yi had a complicated mood: "The first time I went to your house, you told me to lie, it's not good."

Of course Zhao Lu knew that this was not good, but there was no other way, so he comforted her and said, "Just treat it as a white lie."

"I never lied growing up, I'm not good at it."

Zhao Lu tilted his head and thought for a while, then said, "Why don't I come?"

The corners of Yang Yi's mouth raised slightly, and he said with a smile, "Okay, I'll leave it to you."

Zhao Lu felt like he was shooting himself in the foot with a rock...

Is she good at lying?

Well, I've been telling a lot of lies recently.

……

The moment she saw Yang Yi, Wang Xiuyun's eyes lit up and said, "This is Yang Yang's girlfriend, right?"

Zhao Lu panicked with embarrassment, and hurriedly explained: "Mom, don't talk nonsense, this is my friend, Yang Yi."

Wang Xiuyun's expression was a little stagnant: "So it's not... I saw such a beautiful girl, and thought it was Yang Yang who brought his girlfriend to see me. Don't be surprised, Miss Yang, please come in."

"Hello, Auntie, this is tea for you and uncle." Yang Yi took out a square box from his carry-on bag.

"Hey, why are you so rude when you have a meal and give something away?"

Yang Yi said softly: "This is a gift from a customer. I usually don't like to drink tea, so it's a waste to keep it."

Wang Xiuyun just took it, and handed it to Zhao Lu in a blink of an eye for her to put it away.

Zhao Lu looked at Yang Yi's deflated bag in an instant, and asked in surprise, "What did you hide in?"

"By the way, when you put up the artwork."

Wang Xiuyun intervened and said, "You didn't tell me in advance when you came back so early, I haven't even had time to buy food."

It happened that Zhou Yang turned on the TV and called Yang Yi to sit on the sofa.

Zhou Yang walked over.

Zhao Lu also wanted to follow, but was grabbed by Wang Xiuyun.

Wang Xiuyun secretly glanced at Yang Yi's back, and whispered to her, "Miss Yang looks very nice, you should have a good relationship."

Zhao Lu didn't hesitate to think: "It's definitely not bad, otherwise why would I bring her to my house for dinner."

Wang Xiuyun was overjoyed, and lowered her voice: "She stands with your cousin, she looks like a beautiful woman, no matter how you look at it, she looks like a good match, how about you help me in the middle?"

Zhao Lu was full of black lines, so she should have guessed that Wang Xiuyun would say this. Fortunately, she had prepared to communicate with Yang Yi in advance, calmed down, and said, "Don't think too much about it, Mom, Yang Yi has a boyfriend."

Wang Xiuyun opened her mouth, but didn't get to the bottom of it. She sighed and said, "That's such a pity."

Zhao Lusheng was afraid that she would have a wrong idea again, so he hurriedly changed the topic: "Do you want to go to the vegetable market or the supermarket to buy vegetables?"

"Of course it's a vegetable market. The supermarkets are expensive and not good. By the way, the nearby vegetable market is being renovated. Now you can only go to the one on the east side to buy vegetables. It's a long walk. You can drive me there in your cousin's car." Bar."

"Okay." Zhao Lu went over to ask Zhou Yang for the car keys.

Yang Yi heard their conversation and said, "Let's drive mine, I'll take you there."

So the three of them went out, leaving Zhou Yang, an old man, watching TV at home.

After getting into the car, Wang Xiuyun sniffed and said, "This car smells so good. As expected, girls' cars are different. By the way, Lulu, you said you were going to buy a car a while ago, why didn't you follow up?"

Zhao Lu's eyes flickered, and he said, "Cousin, he... said that there might be a sales promotion during the holidays, so let's see it then."

Holding the steering wheel in his hand, Yang Yi glanced at her: "Since you have your cousin, why don't I go with you?"

Zhao Lu did not expect that she would still remember the verbal promise at the time, and said with a strong attitude: "No, you promised me."

Yang Yi smiled without saying a word, stepped on the accelerator, and the car drove slowly.

Wang Xiuyun was sitting alone in the back seat. She felt bored, so she stretched her neck and leaned over, and asked abruptly, "Miss Yang, I don't know what you do?"

Yang Yi smiled politely: "I do interior design."

Zhao Lu glanced back: "Mom, sit down, this is very dangerous."

Wang Xiuyun sat up straight and said, "How about a designer, the salary must be a lot?"

"It's okay, I can support myself."

"Then is your boyfriend also a designer?"

As soon as the words came out, the two people sitting in front looked at each other in the rearview mirror.Zhao Lu blinked, indicating that he had already paved the way for her just now.

Yang Yi said concisely: "Yes."

Zhao Lusheng was afraid that Wang Xiuyun would ask endless questions, so he hurriedly said before Wang Xiuyun could open his mouth, "Mom, you check your household registration and ask about everything."

Wang Xiuyun's face darkened, and she pointed the finger at her: "You still have the face to teach me, you see, everyone around you has a girlfriend, and you are still single, does it make sense?"

Zhao Lu was not convinced: "Why is it outrageous, isn't my cousin still single at 35? Why don't you talk about him?"

"you you you!"

"Okay, okay, stop arguing." Yang Yi made a breakthrough, and changed the subject, "Auntie, Zhao Lu said that you are very good at cooking. Last time I ate the dumplings you made, they were really delicious."

It's not easy to lose your temper in front of outsiders, so Wang Xiuyun changed her smile: "Since Ms. Yang likes it, I'll buy more ingredients later, wrap it up and you can eat it."

Yang Yi panicked: "No, no, I didn't mean that, it's too troublesome."

"No trouble, no trouble, making dumplings is very fast."

When she arrived at the vegetable market, Wang Xiuyun immediately went to buy dumpling wrappers, and just happened to meet an aunt in the community who also came out to buy vegetables.

The aunt saw two beauties following her, and asked, "Are these two your daughters?"

Wang Xiuyun was so happy that she could not close her mouth from ear to ear, pointed at Zhao Lu and said, "This is my daughter, and the one next to her is her friend."

The aunt's eyes swept over the two of them like radar, and said with a smile: "You are so pretty, do you have a date?"

"My daughter is still single, do you have a suitable person to introduce her?"

When Zhao Lu heard something bad, he touched the back of Yang Yi's hand and said, "Did you just say you wanted to go to the bathroom?"

Yang Yi received her eye signal and nodded calmly.

Zhao Lu had to interrupt the two women who were chatting happily in front of them: "Mom, let's go to the bathroom, you chat slowly."

Before Wang Xiuyun could answer, she grabbed Yang Yi's hand and tried to slip away.

There were gradually more people in the vegetable market, and when he turned around in a hurry, Zhao Lu accidentally bumped into an aunt with curly hair, and she hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry."

The curly-haired aunt turned her head, her face was slightly displeased, and soon turned into surprise: "Zhao Lu? Why are you!"

Zhao Lu looked confused: "Auntie, do we know each other?"

"Why don't you know me? I'm Zheng Hao's second aunt! You forgot me so quickly?"

Zheng Hao's second aunt? ? ?

Zhao Lu looked at Yang Yi beside him with a puzzled expression.

Yang Yi shook her head and said, "I don't have any memory."

Zhao Lu has only seen it once, and Zhao Lu has no impression at all...

She forced a smile on her face and said to the person in front of her, "Hello, Second Aunt... Are you here to buy vegetables?"

"Yeah, I live near here, didn't Zheng Hao tell you?"

"No……"

She and Zheng Hao are just acting, so why explain each other's family background clearly?Zhao Lu's face became stiff with a smile, thinking about how to deal with the next problem.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind: "Why are you two still here?"

Zhao Lu recognized Wang Xiuyun's voice, and the hairs on his back stood on end.

But at this time, the second aunt said: "My house is in the neighborhood behind the vegetable market. You and the mouse come to sit at home when you have time. His second uncle has never seen you, and has always been curious about what the mouse's girlfriend looks like."

Zhao Lu secretly thought it was bad, and prayed silently in his heart: Please stop talking, can you please?

Wang Xiuyun finally sensed something was wrong: "Do you know each other?"

The second aunt looked at Zhao Lu sharply, and then at Wang Xiuyun. The more she looked, the more she felt that the two looked alike: "Zhao Lu, is this your mother?"

"..."

It's over, I can't control it.

Zhao Lu struggled for a long time, then nodded.It's no use pretending to be deaf and dumb at this point, she took a deep breath and said, "Mom, do you still remember Zheng Hao?"

Wang Xiuyun didn't understand, so she said, "Of course I remember, what happened to him? Are you still in touch?"

……

Zhao Lu regretted so much that he would have asked Zhou Yang to accompany Wang Xiuyun if he knew it earlier. He was blowing the air conditioner at home, eating iced watermelon and looking so happy.

When she agreed to pretend to be a couple with Zheng Hao, Zhao Lu did think that if Wang Xiuyun forced her to go on a blind date or find a boyfriend again, she would use Zheng Hao as a shield. Anyway, they are a cooperative relationship, mutual benefit and non-interference.

She had plans, but she never expected to meet Zheng Hao's family members in the vegetable market, so it's not easy to be fooled now.

Especially when Wang Xiuyun learned that she and Zheng Hao were "in a relationship" and had seen Zheng Hao's sick grandfather behind her back, she blamed her regardless of time and place: "Why didn't you tell me that you were dating? How could you lie to me?" I?"

"..." Zhao Lu couldn't say anything, so she simply continued to pretend to be dumb, and she looked at Yang Yi eagerly.

Yang Yi had a weird expression on her face, and asked her, "Are you still going to the bathroom?"

"go with!"

Using urine to get rid of Wang Xiuyun's nagging, they didn't stop until they reached the entrance of the vegetable market.Wang Xiuyun and Second Aunt had been left far behind, Zhao Lu looked back and sighed with relief.

With an itchy palm, she looked down.

Just now she grabbed Yang Yi's hand in a hurry, and Yang Yi didn't shake it off.

Yang Yi jokingly said, "Are you nervous? Are you sweating?"

"Sorry." Zhao Lu consciously lost his composure, and slowly let go of her hand.

Yang Yi looked at her pale lips and said, "Have you ever thought that this matter will become more and more complicated in the future?"

She hadn't thought about it before, but now she was a little worried.Zhao Lu took out the papers from his bag, gave one to Yang Yi to wipe her hands, and wiped the sweat on his forehead with one, and wailed, "It's very complicated now."

It's better to be honest and do one's duty, people will be punished for their tricks.

Zhao Lu especially wanted to leave now.

Yang Yi gave her an idea: "If you can't do it, you should dump Zheng Hao. Anyway, his grandfather has almost recovered now, and your mission has been completed."

"It makes sense, I'll tell him now." Zhao Lu couldn't wait to take out his mobile phone and call Zheng Hao.

The phone was connected quickly, and she said straight to the point: "Zheng Hao, this is the end of our pretending to be a couple."

When the incident happened suddenly, Zheng Hao was stunned: "What happened?"

Zhao Lu told him that she met his second aunt in the vegetable market, and said categorically: "The more this matter drags on, the more trouble it will cause. Let's stop here."

The purpose of asking Zhao Lu to pretend to be his girlfriend at the beginning was to get the grandfather to agree to the operation. Now that the purpose has been achieved, Zheng Hao is too embarrassed to force her to do anything.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." He was a little unwilling, "Are you sure you don't want to play tricks with me? I think we get along pretty well."

"No! That's it, goodbye!" Zhao Lu hung up the phone harshly, looked up to the sky and sighed, "Lying is really tiring."

Yang Yi smiled "puchi": "If I were you, I wouldn't be happy so early."

"why?"

"Think about it, your mother just learned from his second aunt that you and Zheng Hao are dating, and later you tell her that you and Zheng Hao broke up, what will she think?"

Zhao Lu could completely imagine Wang Xiuyun talking around her, she felt dizzy, and glared at Yang Yi: "You told me to dump him. If my mother says me later, can't you help me?"

"How can I help? Yes, we have a partner or we are single, how about introducing it to you?"

"you dare!"

……

As expected, when Wang Xiuyun heard that she broke up with Zheng Hao, she immediately exploded: "What did you say?!"

The reason Zhao Lu had made up before, she said vaguely: "He and I...we did date for a period of time, and after dating, we found that our personalities were not suitable in all aspects, so we broke up peacefully. I didn't mean to hide it on purpose. You, I spent too little time with him, it's so troublesome to say it."

Wang Xiuyun is not so easy to fool: "That's not what his second aunt said. She said that you went to see his grandfather."

"Yeah, we broke up after seeing his grandfather. Everyone is very busy, so if it doesn't fit, we just broke up. Is this normal?"

"..." To the conservative Wang Xiuyun, everything she said was absurd, but she was powerless to refute it.

Originally, he wanted to say something more, but seeing the presence of outsiders, Wang Xiuyun swallowed the resentment.

In order to reduce unnecessary troubles, Zhao Lu didn't even explain the relationship between Zheng Hao and Yang Yi to Wang Xiuyun.

In any case, the matter finally came to an end.

Zhao Lu understood that Wang Xiuyun was doing it for her own good, and it was always her fault to lie to others.

In order to make up for the guilt in his heart, after returning home, Zhao Lu took the initiative to go into the kitchen to help Wang Xiuyun, softly saying: "Mom, there are guests here today, please do me a favor and stop talking about me later, okay?"

Wang Xiuyun snorted, "If you weren't my daughter, I wouldn't bother to care about you."

Knowing that she would not be really angry, Zhao Lu rubbed his head against her back: "Mom, you are the best."

Wang Xiuyun rolled her eyes, stuffed the prepared dumpling stuffing into her hand, and said, "You don't need your help here, go out and make dumplings."

Zhao Lu was dumbfounded when he saw it: "Mom, don't be ridiculous, I don't know how to make dumplings."

"Your cousin will, let him teach you."

"Oh."

When Zhao Lu walked out of the kitchen, she saw Yang Yi sitting alone on the sofa watching the TV. She scanned around but couldn't find Zhou Yang: "Where's my cousin?"

Yang Yi tapped the door with his chin: "Go out to answer the phone."

Zhao Lu walked towards her and asked, "Can you make dumplings?"

Yang Yi smiled implicitly and said, "I only know how to eat dumplings."

"..."

The two foodies washed their hands clean, stared at a plate of dumpling stuffing in a daze, and sat at the dining table waiting for Zhou Yang to guide them.

About 5 minutes later Zhou Yang finished the phone call. As soon as he opened the door, he heard Zhao Lu say, "Cousin, go wash your hands and teach us how to make dumplings."

"Okay."

Zhou Yang's hands were well-defined, slender and powerful, and the skin was fair, but it didn't look sissy.He was patient, deliberately slowed down his movements and speech, and showed them several ways of wrapping dumplings.

Zhao Lu couldn't help clapping and cheering: "Cousin, I can't see that you are so ingenious."

Zhou Yang laughed it off and said, "Don't focus on praise, have you learned it yet?"

"Let me try."

Zhao Lu put a piece of dumpling wrapper in the palm of his hand, and when he was taking the filling, Zhou Yang called to her: "There are too many, it's easy to reveal the stuffing."

"Oh."

Zhao Lu's side just started, Yang Yi's side has already wrapped one, and said in a cheerful voice: "Look at how I wrapped it?"

In the thin palm lies a small dumpling, the shape is still full, at least not deformed.

Zhao Lu was speechless: "You are learning too fast!"

Yang Yi raised his eyebrows, with a rather smug look on his face: "I forgot to tell you, since kindergarten, I have always got full marks in handicraft classes."

"Full score?" Zhao Lu smelled a hint of provocation, looked at the dumpling again, and smiled, "Your bun is so-so."

Yang Yi didn't refute, picked up another piece of dumpling wrapper and wrapped it silently.

Facts have proved that Virgo women are not easy to mess with.

The first dumpling on Zhao Lu's side was barely wrapped with Zhou Yang's help, and the shape couldn't bear to look directly at it.Yang Yi's second dumpling has been finished, and it's wrapped even better than the first one, with an attractive round shape.

Zhao Lu got angry in a hurry, clapped his palms hard, flattened the extremely ugly dumpling, and said expressionlessly: "Okay, you win."

Zhou Yang couldn't laugh or cry, and snatched the crushed dumplings from her palm: "You study hard, don't waste food."

Zhao Lu stopped his childish behavior and began to learn seriously.

Then she discovered that making dumplings may be a matter of talent, no matter how hard she tried, the shape of the dumplings was ugly, so ugly that she even lost her appetite.

Finally, she had to give up, patted the flour on her hands, and said, "You can wrap it, I will help you stuff the meat."

The three of them worked together, which was quite efficient. After a while, Zhou Yang and Yang Yi had packed dozens of them.

At this moment, Wang Xiuyun's voice came from the kitchen: "Just bring some, my water is already boiling."

"Okay, right away." Zhao Lu brought in the wrapped dumplings, and when he came out, he found that Zhou Yang had disappeared again.

I guess I went outside to call again.

Yang Yi was not affected at all, and made dumplings slowly.

Zhao Lu sat down beside her, watching her slender fingers knead the skin into a beautiful shape, he was fascinated for a moment, and said in a strange way: "Yang Yi, if anyone marries you in the future, I will be very happy."

Yang Yi didn't answer, she didn't know if she was shy or didn't want to answer, so she just returned her a faint smile.

For a long time, there was no sound.

Yang Yi looked very focused when she was doing things. Seeing that Zhao Lu hadn't moved for a long time, she took the initiative to find a topic: "Isn't your father coming back for dinner?"

The question was thrown out for a long time and there was no response, Yang Yi was suspicious, raised her head, and bumped into Zhao Lu's bottomless eyes, she was startled.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Zhao Lu came back to his senses, straightened his body, fixed his gaze on her face, and said solemnly, "You have flour on your face."

"Have it?"

"Don't move, I'll wipe it for you." Zhao Lu raised his hand, and drew three times with his index finger on both sides of her mouth.

Yang Yi always felt that her behavior was a little weird: "Are you sure you are helping me wipe my face?"

Zhao Lu smiled with deep meaning, quickly picked up the mobile phone that was placed aside, took a photo of her, and said triumphantly, "Okay!"

It took Yang Yi a long time to realize that she was tricked by her, and asked without getting angry, "What did you paint on my face?"

On a fair face, around a bright red mouth, six white beards are playful and lovely.Zhao Lu was very satisfied with his work and showed her the photos.

Yang Yi: "..."

Zhao Lusheng was afraid of making her unhappy, so he quickly took out a tissue to help her clean it carefully, and said, "Seeing that you are too tired making dumplings, I am just kidding you."

But she doesn't plan to delete the photo, so let's keep it as a souvenir.It's rare that she has such a cute side, she wants to secretly contract it.

a long time later.

Zhao Lu quit all dumplings, she almost forgot what dumplings taste like.Even when He Yun handed the dumpling made by herself for the first time after being "congenial", she just glanced at it and couldn't arouse her appetite at all.

He Yun encouraged her: "Can you save some face? A dumpling won't kill you."

Zhao Lu was determined not to open his mouth.

Dumplings don't kill people, but memories are like knives, they kill people.

……

Regarding the design drawing, Yang Yi revised and revised it, and it took nearly a week to finalize the final draft.

With the design drawings, the next step is to decorate.Yang Yi's studio took over the job by the way.

There are still many miscellaneous things waiting for Zhou Yang to do, so he handed over the supervision of the decoration to Zhao Lu.

Time passed quietly, and Zhao Lu realized belatedly that she hadn't met Yang Yi for several days.

Although they lived close to each other, they couldn't find a suitable opportunity because they were too busy.

On Friday, Zhao Lu sent Yang Yi a WeChat message: "Do you have time to have dinner together tonight?"

She sent a message in the morning, but Yang Yi didn't get back to her until the afternoon: "Okay, but it may be a little later."

Not only was it later, it was almost nine o'clock when the two met.

Yang Yi drove to pick her up, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I have a temporary meeting and can't leave."

"It's okay, I asked the decorator to work overtime, and they just left." Zhao Lu opened the car door familiarly, got into the passenger seat, and fastened his seat belt.

"What to eat?" Yang Yi asked her.

A new self-service hot pot opened nearby. Zhao Lu originally wanted to take her there, but seeing that it was getting late, he said, "I want to eat Malatang, how about you?"

"I'm free, anyway, it's the same to eat anything when I'm hungry."

Then they went to eat spicy soup.

In the noisy environment and overcrowded restaurants, they ate very quickly and left without delay after eating.

Satisfied, tired and tired, Zhao Lu stood at the entrance of the street blowing hot wind, and she stepped aside to avoid pedestrians coming and going on the road.

Yang Yi came out after going to the bathroom, and saw her in a daze, she approached without her noticing: "What are you looking at?"

Zhao Lu turned to her and smiled: "Okay?"

Yang Yi followed her gaze just now, and found a couple fighting not far away. The man was very thin, with a pained expression on his back, rolling across the road with his little girlfriend on his back.

Yang Yi only thought that she was envious of others, so she kept silent and said, "Has your roommate been in a relationship recently?"

Zhao Lu's eyes widened: "Yes, how did you know?"

Yang Yi hooked the corners of her lips: "I came back late from overtime work that day, and when the elevator door opened, I saw her kissing her girlfriend."

It turned out to be the case.

Regarding Yuning's matter, Zhao Lu was not good at commenting, so he didn't know what to say for a while.

Yang Yi looked into her eyes and asked, "The girl moved in to live with you?"

"Maybe, I saw her bring some toiletries some time ago. Anyway, the two of them sleep in the same room."

"Then would it be inconvenient for you to live with them?"

"Everyone is female, okay." Zhao Lu paused, "It's just sometimes annoying."

"Is there a conflict?"

Zhao Lu shook his head: "That's not it. It's just that they are a couple, and they are always dangling in front of me. As a single dog, I am abused by them almost every day."

Yang Yi couldn't help laughing, and said, "If you can't stand it, you can be like them."

Zhao Lu felt a sudden in his heart: "The same thing? You want me to find a girlfriend too?"

Yang Yi was surprised: "Is it the opposite? Shouldn't you find a boyfriend?"

"..." Zhao Lu stopped talking and muttered, "I thought you invited me to live with you."

The hot wind blew away her words, Yang Yi couldn't hear clearly: "What did you say?"

"It's nothing..." Zhao Lu adjusted his mood, looked at her, rubbed his chin and pondered, "Tell me, what if one day Yu Ning thinks I'm too obtrusive and drives me out?"

Yang Yi frowned, and asked without answering, "Is she such an unreasonable person?"

of course not.

Although Yu Ning is not very familiar with her, he is also a cheerful person.Before they agreed to rent for at least half a year, so before the contract expires, Zhao Lu guarantees 100% that Yuning will not do such a wicked thing.

"I mean if."

Yang Yi thought for a moment, then laughed easily, and said, "When the time comes, you will move in with me. Do you just want to wait for my words?"

Her thoughts were pierced, and Zhao Lu's face became hot, and she cleared her throat: "Be serious."

Yang Yi restrained her face and said seriously: "Okay, I'm serious and responsible, if you really have nowhere to go, I will take you in. Who made us friends."

The corners of Zhao Lu's mouth rose slightly: "It's more or less the same."

After getting in the car, Yang Yi suddenly thought of something, and asked her: "I haven't met you when I go out for the past few days, how did you get there? Did you take a taxi or take the subway?"

"Take a taxi."

"It's not convenient to take a taxi. When are you going to buy a car?"

Zhao Lu thought about this question for a long time. Some time ago, she was very itchy, but now that impulse was washed away by other things.She pursed her lips and said ambiguously, "Wait a little longer."

Both of them were tired, they didn't stay outside for long.Yang Yi drove the car directly into the community.

"Good night."

"Good night."

They said goodbye in the elevator, watched the elevator door close again, Zhao Lu went to 603, took out the key to open the door.

The room was pitch black, and Yu Ning and Mimi went out again.

Empty houses live endless loneliness.

Zhao Lu went in with bare feet to take a shower, and came out to dry his hair. When he lay down, he heard "bang bang bang" from upstairs.

The footsteps upstairs are loud tonight, like thunder.

Zhao Lu picked up his phone and sent Yang Yi a WeChat message: "What are you doing? Are you moving?"

The message was sent out at [-]:[-]. She waited for a few minutes but still couldn't get a reply. The commotion upstairs didn't stop for a moment, so she had to call.

"Dududu-"

After ringing for a long time, the phone was finally connected. Zhao Lu asked her politely: "Ms. Yang, what are you doing so late at night?"

Yang Yi breathed a little, and said: "I'm sorry, the cat fell into the crack of the cabinet, and I couldn't get it out after a long time."

"cat?"

Where did the cat come from?

Two minutes later, Zhao Lu appeared at the door of 2 and raised his hand to ring the doorbell.

After a sound of footsteps, Yang Yi hurried to open the door for her: "I'm really sorry, I didn't expect you to go to bed so early."

Zhao Lu didn't intend to sleep just now, and looked at her sweating profusely, and asked, "When did you raise a cat? Why didn't I know?"

Yang Yi staggered her body to make it easier for her to come in. She gently closed the door and said, "It was raised by Zheng Hao. He was on a business trip the day before yesterday, so he brought the cat to me for a few days. You came just in time, come and help me."

"What are you busy with?"

Yang Yi didn't have time to explain, so he pulled her to the door of the study.

As soon as she got close, Zhao Lu heard a few screams of "meow, meow, meow", and her goosebumps fell all over the ground.

The door of the study room was open, and the inside was as messy as if it had been robbed, all kinds of books were piled up disorderly, and the computer was also moved to the ground.

Zhao Lu was dumbfounded.

Yang Yi blushed with anxiety, she rolled up her sleeves, pointed to the bookcase and said, "The fat ball is stuck inside and can't get out. I wanted to move the cabinet just now, but there are too many things inside and it's too heavy for me to move."

Zhao Lu is not sure if he can handle the two-meter-high bookcase.She swallowed and said, "How about we try?"

According to Yang Yi's description, the cat was stuck between the bookcase and the wall, and the gap was too small to crawl out.

Time was limited, so they didn't have much to say. They stood on both sides of the bookcase, holding the edge. After Zhao Lu shouted "one, two, three", the two of them pulled the bookcase out together.

"Meow-"

The shock disturbed the trapped cat, and its cry became more and more tragic every time.

Zhao Lu gritted his teeth, and said to the person opposite: "It seems to be able to move, try a few more times and it should be fine, come on!"

Yang Yi nodded and gave her a firm look.

"One, two, three, use your strength!"

"Wow--" With a sound, the white paper that was originally spread on the top of the cabinet floated down, blocking Zhao Lu's sight.She raised her hand to push the paper away, and suddenly saw a white living creature "swish" under her feet, which shocked her.

"Okay! It's out!"

It wasn't until Yang Yi's voice sounded that Zhao Lu realized that the white mass just now was the stuck cat.She breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the cabinet.

Yang Yi patted the dust off his hands and walked towards her: "Thanks for having you."

Zhao Lu leaned against the cabinet and said, "You should have called me up a long time ago. How can you do this kind of work by yourself?"

"It's too late and I don't want to bother you."

Zhao Lu pretended to be displeased: "Have you met someone else? Are you friends?"

Yang Yi smiled knowingly, and said, "Understood, if there is any trouble again in the future, I will find you."

"better not."

"Ok?"

"I mean, you better not get in trouble."

After speaking, both of them laughed.

Zhao Lu tucked a strand of hair that blocked his sight behind his ears, and looked at the mess on the ground: "Should we clean up these?"

"Well, myself..."

Zhao Lu glanced at her and interrupted her: "What did you say just now?"

Yang Yi smiled helplessly, and said, "Okay, I won't be polite to you, but it's too late, I'll clean up after work tomorrow, and I'll call you when the time comes."

Zhao Lu squinted his eyes and said, "As a Virgo, you love cleanliness so much, don't you feel uncomfortable seeing this mess here?"

"It's a little uncomfortable." Embarrassment flashed across Yang Yi's face.

"Then move now, it won't take much time anyway."

Without waiting for her to respond, Zhao Lu bent down to move the scattered books on the floor, and suddenly his eyes went dark.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and it was pitch black, and there were voices one after another outside.Zhao Lu straightened up: "What's the situation?"

After a few seconds of pause, she clearly heard Yang Yi say: "It seems that there is a power outage."

Zhao Lu looked towards the window based on his impression, and found that the outside was as dark as the inside.She subconsciously touched her butt pocket, but found nothing, only to remember that she had put her phone on the coffee table when she entered the door.

In a daze, she heard rustling footsteps and felt that familiar breath approaching her, so she tentatively said, "Yang Yi?"

"I'm here."

"What are you doing?"

"Find something. I remember there was a fluorescent light with batteries in the computer desk cabinet, see if it still works."

Zhao Lu did not dare to move, his eyes could not see, and his hearing became extremely sensitive.She heard a fumbling sound and heard a drawer being pulled open.

In the next second, a round object lit up, illuminating Yang Yi's face, giving him an eerie feeling.

Zhao Lu patted his chest: "Mom!"

Yang Yi smirked at her, and said, "Let's go, it's too messy here, let's go out first."

It is really unprepared to say that there will be a power outage when there is a power outage.The ghost knows when the call will come, Zhao Lu and others have adapted to the bright light, and followed her footsteps to the door.

The lamp was originally only used for decoration, the light was very weak, and there were many and messy things on the ground, Yang Yi walked slowly, and Zhao Lu walked even slower.

When passing by that computer, Yang Yi reminded her: "Be careful with the cable."

It's too late.

When Zhao Lu raised her right foot, the slipper was caught by a data cable, and her body was carried forward.

Yang Yi felt the wind behind her, she turned around abruptly, before she could exclaim in surprise, she instinctively stretched out her hand and hugged Zhao Lu's body tightly.

An unexpected, solid hug made Zhao Lu's chest ache.After the pain, she felt that the touch was very unusual, soft and elastic, separated by the real heartbeat of "pounding".

There was a hand around her waist, not strong at all, but it held her tightly tightly to prevent her from falling down.

Zhao Lu was still in shock and realized what happened. At that moment, her heart stopped suddenly and she held her breath.

Yang Yi's worried voice was close to his ears: "Are you okay?"

"No...it's okay..." Zhao Luxin panicked all of a sudden, and gently pushed her away.

The strange feeling on the chest disappeared immediately, but the remaining warmth was still there.The heartbeat slowly recovered, leaving only a sense of loss.

Another trace of annoyance.

well!It's too short.
