In the quiet night, there is the sound of ticking water, tragic meowing of cats, and the heartbeat of "pound thump thump".In a state of high tension, Zhao Lu even smelled a subtle smell, which may be the smell of sweat stimulated on her body, or the smell of hormones that came out of nowhere...

Yang Yi's hands were still tightly wrapped around her waist, her back hit her arms, and before breathing, he could feel the ups and downs of the chest of the person behind him, soft and warm...

Zhao Lu's whole world seemed to be still, she couldn't hear the noise around her, so she swallowed instinctively.

I don't know if it's because of the light, Yang Yiqing's shallow eyes seemed to hide some other emotion, like a dying flame, it jumped slightly, and went out with a "huh".

The scene in front of him was completely submerged in darkness, Zhao Lu blinked and realized that the light from the flashlight was gone.

The phone is so scrapped?

Zhao Lu didn't have time to think about these questions, the hand trapped around her waist suddenly released, and the next second, Yang Yi's steady voice sounded in her ear: "Where is your mobile phone?"

Zhao Lu came back to his senses, found the mobile phone from the bag in the dark, unlocked it, and turned on the flashlight.

With that ray of light, she saw Yang Yi bent down and fished out the malfunctioning mobile phone from the water.

"Don't touch it!" Zhao Lu shouted eagerly, meeting Yang Yi's eyes, she said unnaturally, "It shouldn't be broken, but it's hard to tell if you touch it."

Yang Yi moved his fingers away from the keys.

The ambiguity was gone, Zhao Lu remembered that she still had business to do, she cleared her throat and said, "Wait for me."

Without waiting for Yang Yi to respond, she took her mobile phone into the bedroom.The light of the flashlight swept onto the bed, and there stood an ignorant orange cat.The surroundings were pitch black, and the cat's eyes were like two laser lights under the stimulation of strong light, which were strangely bright and horrifying in color.

Zhao Lu was not afraid at all, her blood was boiling, looking at the orange cat pacing anxiously on her bed sheet, she suddenly wondered what cat meat tasted like.

"Meow meow meow—"

The floor of the bedroom was full of water, and the pillow and a single corner of the quilt were soaked in it mercilessly. Only now did the orange cat realize that he had caused a catastrophe, but he couldn't find a foothold as if he was afraid. Only the big bed Can rely on.

The light-colored bed sheets had already been stamped with plum blossom claws all over the place. Seeing Zhao Lu appearing, Luotang Cat ran over happily, paws on the edge of the end of the bed, and raised its head to Zhao Lu, "Meow, meow, meow." " for help.

Zhao Lu couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed the wet fur on the orange cat's back with one hand, picked it up, and looked at it, Zhao Lu yelled at it: "I'm going to kill you!"

The captured orange cat was hanging helplessly by its four legs, its head drooping, and finally it didn't dare to bark anymore.

A few minutes later, Zhao Lu, who gradually calmed down, outlined the orange cat's "crime" with his own imagination.

Zhao Lu discovered from the very beginning that this orange cat was very smart, but she didn't know that this orange cat actually had a cleanliness habit.

Zhao Lu went out in a hurry today. She washed her face but did not pour out the water in the sink. The round cover used to block the flow of water is of high quality. Without external interference, it can almost prevent water from leaking down at all.The thirsty orange cat jumped onto the sink with ease, but disliked the water in the sink for being too dirty. It opened the handle of the faucet with two paws, and the clear water flowed out.The orange cat accidentally turned up the water, and was forced to take a bath instead of drinking it.The frightened orange cat jumped off the sink in a panic, ran out in a panic, and left the faucet on until the water filled the sink, flooding the entire room... …

The floor was full of water, and Zhao Lu was pulled out of the dark room by Yang Yi.The voice-activated lights in the corridor turned on, illuminating her in a mess.

The orange cat was trembling in her hand, peeking up at her from time to time, but was glared back fiercely by Zhao Lu.

Yang Yi went to the hospital after work, and it was already dark when he came back.When she arrived at the door of the house, she subconsciously glanced at the opposite door, and was about to look away when she was attracted by the shrill cat meowing from inside.

She wasn't surprised that there was a cat meowing here, because last week, when Yao Ling came to look for Zhao Lu with the cat in his arms, she happened to run into it.

It's just that the cat's meow is a bit miserable, either it's hungry, or it's spring.Yang Yi leans towards the former.She lowered her head and glanced at the gap under the door to make sure that the lights were not turned on inside, guessing that Zhao Lu might not have come back.She hesitated for a moment, stepped aside, and approached the door.

Then I heard the sound of "squeaking" water under the cover of cat meowing.

anyone?

Why didn't people turn on the lights when they were inside?

Just when Yang Yi was suspicious, she saw a thin stream of water seeping out from under the crack of the door, and immediately realized that something was wrong, she forgot her reserve and persistence, and started to knock on the door recklessly.

"Zhao Lu, are you inside?"

"Meow meow meow——" the only answer to her was cat meowing.

Yang Yi quickly took out his mobile phone, found Zhao Lu's number and dialed it directly.

At the moment of crisis, all worries were put aside, until this moment, Yang Yi settled down, looked at the confrontation of a man and a cat, and said: "Just to be on the safe side, don't open the switch first, wait for you to turn on the switch inside." Let’s dry it out. There’s too much water, and there’s no way to clean it up in a while, and there’s no electricity, so why don’t you wait until tomorrow.”

Zhao Lu carried the struggling orange cat and looked at the water blocked by the thick clothes through the light in the corridor. She looked at Yang Yi with a complicated mood: "Is this clothes yours?"

Yang Yi said indifferently: "Old clothes should be thrown away."

Zhao Lu's throat rolled, and he said shyly, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

Zhao Lu opened his mouth to speak.

Yang Yi has already turned around.

With a "click", Yang Yi pushed the door open, but did not turn on the light immediately.She hid her body in the semi-darkness, holding the doorknob, and broke the silence softly: "If there is no place to go for the time being, I can borrow you this sofa for one night."

Zhao Lu's hand holding the orange cat sank, almost dropping the cat in his hand.Yang Yi's voice penetrated into her left ear, and "swish" out of her right ear. Her back was very straight, like an old man with amnesia, and she turned around suddenly: "What did you say?"

What responded to her was a sigh: "It's fine if you don't hear it."

Zhao Lu: "..."

With a "snap", Yang Yi turned on the light in the room and changed his shoes at the entrance.

She moved very slowly, as if she was exhausted, but also as if she did it deliberately.

After changing her shoes, she straightened up, looked at the dazed person and cat in the corridor, and said, "Can you sleep in that bed? Or do you want to lie on that sofa for a night? Actually, it's not impossible, as long as Just sleep well and don't let yourself fall off the top."

This was exactly Zhao Lu's concern, but it felt like a lie to ask her to sleep in Yang Yi's house.

Are they familiar?What does she have to do with her?Why should she go to her house?

Questions popped up one after another, Zhao Lu was stunned for a moment, seeing that the door was about to be closed, her brain twitched, and she walked over in a strange way, like an outsider who broke in rashly, she collided with Yang Yi who opened the door. It's right.

Zhao Lu opened his mouth slightly, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Yang Yi glanced at her hand supporting the door, paused, and said, "The shoe fell off, I just wanted to pick it up."

Zhao Lu: "..."

The embarrassment of being punctured suddenly enveloped the whole body, Zhao Lu withdrew his hand embarrassingly, lowered his eyes, and faltered: "I... I might really want to spend the night with you."

The invitation was sent out by himself. Yang Yi opened the door completely as if treating a distinguished guest, turned sideways, and said to the person outside: "Please come in."

The attitude of the people in the door is very friendly, but Zhao Lu seems to have stepped into the enemy's restricted area. She took one leg carefully, and walked in mechanically step by step under Yang Yi's calm gaze.

Her vision suddenly opened up, she looked at every decoration in the room, she felt vaguely familiar, just like when she stepped into 701 for the first time back then, nervous, expectant, and a little bit uncertain.

After closing the door, Yang Yi walked over to her and asked, "Do you want something to drink? I only have water and yogurt here."

This unfamiliar tone instantly brought Zhao Lu back to his thoughts, and the orange cat in his arms finally broke free from her restraints when she was unaware, jumped down and hid behind the TV counter to watch her covetously.

Zhao Lu didn't know where to put his hands, his eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "No, thank you."

Yang Yi didn't force it, she pointed to the clean sofa and said, "If you don't mind, you can just settle here tonight."

It's all here, how can there be any reason to dislike it?

Zhao Lu wanted to show a smile, but just moved the corner of her mouth, and found that the skin was a little tight, she gave up this last bit of disguise, rubbed the cat hair stuck to the palm of her hand, and said quickly, "I...I still Gotta get some toiletries over there."

"Ah."

The voice was very light, without any emotion, but Zhao Lu seemed to be pardoned, and she walked quickly towards the gate.

Before he had time to see what was badly damaged in the house, Zhao Lu walked through the water with his mobile phone in hand, simply packed up the toiletries, and went to the bedroom to find a change of clothes.When she returned to Yang Yi's side again, she found that Yang Yi was chasing a mouse with the orange cat.

The orange cat with all its hair and hair is running around in the living room, and Yang Yi in a professional suit is chasing after him. The animal foley sounds of "meow meow meow" are gentle and reveal a trace of joy, gently touching people's heartstrings .

In such a discordant picture, Zhao Lu actually tasted a bit of childishness.After meeting, every time she saw Yang Yi, Yang Yi always had that indifferent look, she couldn't see her emotions, and even forgot that this person used to laugh, and when he laughed, the tails of his eyes elongated , thin lips pursed into a nice arc...

This woman had been so charming, she fell into an abyss.

"Okay, I won't chase anymore, don't run away."

The slightly panting voice floated over, and Zhao Lu's figure flickered, returning to reality.

The orange cat huddled in the corner of the living room, looked at the door vigilantly, and opened its mouth to "meow".

Yang Yi seemed to realize something, she restrained all the expressions on her face, turned to look at Zhao Lu, and said, "I won't let me touch it, please dry it, I put the hair dryer on the tea table."

Zhao Lu fixed his eyes on her face, as if he wanted to spy something from above.

Yang Yi turned her head away.

This tiny movement seemed to remind Zhao Lu that as a guest, she should keep her own place, and it was a bit over the top to look at her master so unscrupulously.

Zhao Lu rubbed his nose, put down the temporarily packed things, walked over and caught the orange cat effortlessly.

She could clearly feel the orange cat shivering, and she didn't know if it was cold or scared.Zhao Lu didn't care about these things, when she thought of the water all over the floor in the house, and the sheets and quilts ruined by it, she couldn't get angry, and she patted the orange cat's buttocks gently.

The orange cat knew it was wrong, half-closed its eyes and said nothing.

Zhao Lu picked up the hair dryer, and absently helped the orange cat to dry its hair amidst the roar of "huhu".Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Yang Yi going to the bathroom, coming out quickly, and entering the bedroom again, and then there was no movement, and she didn't know what she was messing around in.

After 10 minutes, she finally dried the orange cat. After the noise disappeared, Yang Yi came out of the room and said, "The water is ready, you can go wash it first."

So she has been waiting for her to take a shower?

Zhao Lu didn't dare to think too much, returned the hair dryer to her, said "um", and went to get the toiletries that were packed.Turning his head, he saw Yang Yi entered the bedroom again, and he didn't seem to intend to communicate with her too much.

Although Zhao Lu didn't know what he was expecting, it was quite uncomfortable to feel ignored.

If you are unhappy, you are not happy, and she is too embarrassed to complain when she is under the fence.She walked slowly to the bathroom.

The bathroom is connected to the small kitchen. When passing by, Zhao Lu saw a transparent locker on the cooking table with some rice in it. She suddenly remembered Yang Yi's cell phone that she had dropped into the water. She turned her footsteps, Go to the bedroom door.

The door was open, and Yang Yi was sitting at the computer desk. The computer was turned on, as if he was working.But it seemed that she was not concentrating, because as soon as Zhao Lu appeared, she stopped typing on the keyboard and turned her head to look at her: "Is the water good?"

Caught off guard by her stare, Zhao Lu's heart skipped half a beat, he shook his head, and said, "Don't touch your mobile phone, seal it with a bag, put it in a rice jar, and wait until the water inside is completely sucked out, it should be fine .”

If this trick doesn't work, she can only pay her a new mobile phone.

Yang Yi frowned, and said in a steady voice, "I know, I just put it in."

Just now?When she was drying the orange cat?

Sure enough, she was worrying blindly.

"It's okay, you are busy with your work, I will call you after washing." Zhao Lu walked away from the bedroom disheartenedly, and when he passed the rice storage box again, something flashed in his mind.

It seems that she told Yang Yi to put the water-soaked mobile phone into the rice vat.

That happened a year and a half ago. At that time, she had just moved to Liyuan Community, and she was not very familiar with Yang Yi. When she was taking a bath, her mobile phone fell into the bathtub. Yang Yi came to bring her fruit, and her clothes I didn't have time to change it, so I ran to open the door in a hurry...

She can still remember such a distant memory deeply.

What about Yang Yi?Does Yang Yi still remember the little things they used to get along with?

Once the door of memory was opened, Zhao Lu was involuntarily drawn in.Later, she was surprised to find that even after so long, even if they were in the same room but had nothing to say, she still couldn't be indifferent to Yang Yi.

This woman is like a drug, she has been infected from the very beginning, hopelessly wanting to taste it again...

Zhao Lu took a quick battle bath and reminded Yang Yi from a long distance away.She pretended to be calmly sitting on the sofa petting the cat, listening to the movement behind her with her ears up.Hear footsteps, hear doors slam, hear water.

Yang Yi washed slower than her, but it took only ten minutes.The unhurried footsteps pierced into the eardrums, Zhao Lu estimated that she was about to enter the bedroom, and said abruptly, "Your phone is out of order, what time will you wake up tomorrow? Do you want me to set an alarm clock for you?"

Yang Yi pondered for a while, and said, "Call me when you wake up."

This unsalty tone made people feel very uncomfortable, Zhao Lu couldn't control himself, turned to look at her, and said before she closed the door: "Did you block me before?"

Zhao Lu has been puzzled by this question for a long time. If Yang Yi didn't take the initiative to call her today, maybe she would never have the chance to ask her in her lifetime.

Yang Yi moved his fingers.Across the door, Zhao Lu couldn't see such details, she stared intently at Yang Yi's face, eager to know but afraid of the answer.

Yang Yi didn't change his face, and after a long time, he said, "Go to bed early, good night."

The door closed under Zhao Lu's expectant gaze.

The futile struggle made the original restless heart even more chaotic, Zhao Lu let out the suffocation in his chest, put the orange cat down gently, and walked over to turn off the light.

The flood is not serious, just a little cleaning tomorrow will do.This is not a big deal, but for some reason, Zhao Lu couldn't sleep.

She was a little angry, but it wasn't that she was still angry before, she felt that it all had something to do with the people sleeping in the bedroom.

Can the man sleep?

What does it mean to avoid answering her question?

Zhao Lu was just thinking wildly, tossing and turning on the narrow sofa for a long time, sleepiness hit her, and she was brought into sleepland.

The dream was very chaotic, and strange scenes flashed before her eyes. She vaguely heard the sound of the door opening, the sound of unhurried footsteps, and the faint meowing of cats.

She felt that a pair of eyes were watching her closely. Under the cover of darkness, those sad eyes allowed emotions to leak out, as if there were many words that could not be finished.

When Zhao Lu was woken up by the alarm clock, she had the illusion of "I don't know where she is". She glanced around and realized that she was at Yang Yi's house, so she hurried to knock on the door.

The next second, Yang Yi opened the door. She was already fully dressed and her hair was neatly combed. It was obvious that she had just woken up.

Zhao Lu: "..."

They returned to being rusty and polite again.

After Zhao Lu finished washing here, the two of them went out together, but they were speechless all the way.

The two cars entered the Science and Technology Park one after the other and got off one after another.Zhao Lu saw Yang Yi walking towards the restaurant on the first floor, and she also quietly followed.

"Sister Lulu, good morning!" Yao Ling flew towards her like a bird, and shook her arm.

Zhao Lu turned his head to look at the smile on the girl's face, recalling what happened last night, his face sank, and he tried to strangle her neck.

Yao Ling hurriedly pressed her hand and asked, "What's the matter?"

Zhao Lu gritted his teeth and said, "You know that stupid cat you picked up got into trouble?!"

Yao Ling was dumbfounded.

……

Zhao Lu originally thought that cleaning up the water would be a simple matter, but after he did it himself, he realized that it was a big project.

First they have to shovel away the water, and then mop or rag over and over again to clean it.Zhao Lu was exhausted halfway through the work, so he could only command Yao Ling: "You, go! If you don't clean it up today, I'll skin you and that cat!"

The electric switch has been turned on, but in order to let the water dry faster, Zhao Lu did not turn on the air conditioner.Yao Ling hadn't done any housework before, and he was so tired that he was sweating profusely after just a few moves.

Zhao Lu glared at a certain cat that she locked in a cage, and said to Yao Ling viciously: "It's getting dark, move quickly."

Although she was tired, Yao Ling was quite happy with her work. She said with a smile, "It's okay. I'll work overtime to help you finish when it gets dark. If I can't finish, I won't leave."

"You still have the face to smile!" Zhao Lu raised his knee to kick her.

Yao Ling was frightened, so he dodged for a moment, Zhao Lu's kick just happened to land on her buttocks.Yao Ling blushed, and said, "You, you...you are too much! You beat and scolded, and you still molested people!"

"Stop talking to me and mopping the floor!" Zhao Lu said mercilessly, but he still took a mop to clean up with her.

It took four hours, from dawn to dusk, and they finally cleaned the water in the room, but the floor was still wet.

The two were exhausted and slumped on the sofa. Zhao Lu picked up the phone and said weakly, "I'm hungry, let's order takeaway. What do you want to eat?"

"Whatever." Yao Ling raised his hand and wiped his sweat, "Sister Lulu, can you turn on the air conditioner for a while? I'm covered in sweat."

"Okay, close the doors and windows first."

Yao Ling stood up staggeringly to close the doors and windows. She was wearing flat shoes, slipped and fell down.

"Hey, hello—"

Zhao Lu's complexion changed suddenly, and he quickly reached out to help her.

Holding his buttocks in his hands, Yao Ling said with a smile on his face, "It's all right, it doesn't hurt at all."

Zhao Lu helped her into the bathroom to wash her hands.

Yao Ling asked while washing, "The room is full of water, and the electricity was cut off, so where did you sleep last night?"

"Sleep on the sofa."

Yao Ling didn't know that she had lied, so she said "Oh" and didn't ask any more questions.

Zhao Lu looked across the living room, looked at the closed door opposite, and thought, "Why hasn't she come back so late?"

Yang Yi is on his way back.

She had just come out of the hospital and hadn't eaten yet, but she didn't seem hungry either.She frowned slightly, as if she was preoccupied.The car was driving steadily and slowly, and suddenly, the phone rang.

Yang Yi glanced at it, drove the car slower than a tortoise, and freed up a hand to pick it up: "Hello?"

Zheng Hao said straight to the point: "Lin Chao said you missed the appointment again, what's the matter with you?"

Yang Yi said lightly: "It's not that I missed the appointment, I told him that I don't have time today."

Zheng Hao didn't believe it: "I don't have time at night, why are you going? A date?"

Yang Yi felt helpless: "I went to see Aunt Lan."

Hearing this, Zheng Hao softened his tone: "How is Aunt Lan?"

"same as usual."

Zheng Hao was silent, and then went back to the topic: "Lin Chao, have you met? He is an expert in psychological counseling. He is usually so difficult to make an appointment. He specially opened the back door for me, but you let him dove every time. This is the first time I have met you. How many times?"

"Three times." Yang Yi said it lightly, without a trace of guilt on her face, she sighed, "Brother, I'm really fine, don't waste his time any longer."

Zheng Hao's voice rose an octave: "Who said you were sick? I saw that you were under too much pressure, so I asked you to decompress."

"I'm not stressed, I'm fine."

Zheng Hao let out a cold snort from his nose, and said, "You are not stressed, sleepwalking in the middle of the night scared us half to death, are these all fake?"

Yang Yi: "..."
