Xia Tong didn't know why. He was so close to reconciling with Hua Feihua when she suddenly disconnected without even a word of hello. Xia Tong waited patiently for a while, but Hua Feihua never came back, leaving him feeling deeply disappointed.

"What a pity! I thought I could make another good friend!" Xia Xiaotong was completely unaware that she had trampled on a young girl's heart. She sighed, muttered to herself, and then logged off.

After leaving the training room, the base was still quiet. Everyone was probably still resting and had not woken up yet. Xia Tong stretched and felt a little tired, so he went back to the bedroom.

"Ah!" He fell back onto the bed, stretched out his limbs on the soft bedding, and let out a long breath.

After winning the game, he felt much more at ease even lying on the bed.

Xia Tong was not sleepy at all. She stared at the ceiling for a while and actually felt a little bored.

He had just quit the game, and he couldn't continue looking at things related to the royal tomb, but if he didn't look at it...it seemed like there was nothing else to do, and he would feel extremely empty.

So he thought about it, got up, took a small basin, stuffed his changed clothes neatly into it, and took it into the bathroom to rub bubbles.

The Zheng family used to have a housekeeper, but he was not the one being served, so he was still very good at washing clothes. After washing all the clothes and hanging them out, Xia Tong wiped his hands and found that the feeling of emptiness and boredom still did not disappear, but became more obvious.

He lowered his eyes and stared at his toes, and began to miss Lin Mingfei little by little.

Ever since the game Wang Ling invaded his life in all aspects, he became much more independent. The urgency of survival made him spend most of his time on strategy games. It has been a long time since he missed Lin Mingfei so much.

He jumped back onto the bed, turned over and lay on his stomach, swinging his legs up and down, and took out his cell phone to send a message to Lin Mingfei.

Xia Xiaotong: [Brother, where are you?]

After about ten minutes, the phone vibrated.

polaris_zero: [Shopping with Lao He outside the mall.]

Xia Xiaotong: [Oh, you have something to do, then go ahead and get busy.]

polaris_zero: [Not really busy, what's wrong? ]

Xia Xiaotong: [Oh! Just a little bit boring.]

Xia Xiaotong: [Just a little bit.]

It's really embarrassing... He always acts like a useless kid who never grows up. Lin Mingfei is so busy, will she find him annoying? Xia Tong is no longer clueless, so he starts to worry about many things. He tries hard to choose his words, trying to pretend nothing happened. He is so nervous that the tips of his ears are slightly hot.

polaris_zero: [Did you take a nap? ]

Xia Xiaotong: [No.]

polaris_zero: [Not tired?]

Xia Xiaotong: [It's okay, not too tired.]

polaris_zero: [You're quite energetic, that's just how different being young is.]

Xia Xiaotong: [What do you mean? You're not that old!]

polaris_zero: [Compared to you, I'm old.]

After Lin Mingfei asked a few questions and joked with her a few times, Xia Tong's tense heart relaxed a little. It seemed that the two of them seemed to have returned to the intimate relationship they had when they first met, and she started talking.

Xia Xiaotong: [Brother, I've never felt this way before. In the past, I was very satisfied just by having game videos to watch.]

Xia Xiaotong: [But now that we're all playing games, it's become really boring.]

polaris_zero: [This is normal. After all, your horizons have broadened, and your previous life was too monotonous. Life should be more colorful.]

polaris_zero: [You can try to develop some other hobbies. ]

Xia Xiaotong: [Other hobbies? For example, what are they?]

polaris_zero：【For example...】

polaris_zero: [You suddenly asked me this, I really don't know how to answer. ]

polaris_zero: [Why don't you ask yourself if there's anything you really want, food you really want to eat, or something you really want to do.]

Xia Tong held her cell phone against her chin and thought seriously for a while.

Xia Xiaotong: [Then I want to see you! ]

There was no response from the other end of the phone for a long time.

Just when Xia Tong was completely confused, in the shopping mall over there, Lin Mingfei was bending over and picking up her cell phone that had fallen on the ground and thrown far away.

"Wow... How could you throw that far? Shot put?" He Youjin exclaimed in amazement. "If you don't want your phone anymore, you can donate it to a Hope Primary School."

Lin Mingfei didn't say anything, but silently turned the phone over and saw the screen that was shattered into pieces, with cracks like spiders.

The worse the phone screen was smashed, the more shocking the words Xia Tong had just said to him were.

He Youjin was confused and walked over to ask, "What's wrong with you? Did you break your phone?"

"Ah... the screen is cracked, but luckily, it's not a big deal." Seeing him rushing over to check on her, Lin Mingfei was afraid he would see Xia Tong's chat history. She felt a little secretly happy, so she covered the screen with her hand and changed the subject: "Well... why don't you look at a few more stores, or see if there are any online custom stores? The new uniforms must have a fresh look."

He Youjin didn't suspect anything and said happily, "Okay, then I'll go take a look."

While He You was shopping in the store, Lin Mingfei picked up his phone again and continued chatting with Xia Tong through the stained screen. The messy stained screen was just like his confused mind that was now aroused by Xia Tong.

polaris_zero: [Wanting to see me...this can't be considered a hobby.]

Xia Xiaotong: [Doesn't it count? Then I don't know anything else.]

Even through the broken screen, Lin Mingfei could imagine the little omega's innocent look as he held up his fair and tender cheeks, thinking hard but unable to figure anything out. It was as if a small piece of maple syrup had melted in his heart, so sweet that the corners of his lips couldn't help but rise.

This silly little thing still has a lot to learn.

He was just about to call Xia Tong to have a good chat about life when He Youjin came running back excitedly, shouting, "Zero, I saw a really cool shop! Come and take a look! Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

Lin Mingfei had no choice but to quickly type a string of messages and send them to Xia Tong.

polaris_zero: [Why don't you go chat with those three and ask them to show you around for a bit? They're all free anyway.]

Xia Xiaotong: [Okay then.]

Xia Xiaotong: [Then please be careful outside! ]

Xia Tong closed the chat interface and felt that what Lin Mingfei said made sense.

Suddenly, I had a brand new goal—finding a hobby! The feeling of being at a loss was instantly dispelled.

Xia Tong turned over and got out of bed, then ran out of the bedroom happily.

Next to him was Lin Mingfei's bedroom, and next to that were Zhou Yanjun, Shi Ya and Bo Yu. Xia Tong tiptoed from near to far, first to the door of Zhou Yanjun's bedroom, and took a deep breath.

Not knowing whether Zhou Yanjun was sleeping, Xia Tong would feel bad if she rashly woke up Pang Pang from his sweet dream, so she rolled her bright eyes, put her ear to the door first, and listened quietly while holding her breath.

His hearing was one of the most sensitive in the crowd, otherwise he would not have been able to hear the position of the opposite Paladin in the Day and Night Plateau dungeon. So in this quiet environment, he could vaguely hear some noisy movements inside the door, the "crunching" sound of chewing, and the "rustling" sound of some plastic packaging rubbing against each other, and then he heard Zhou Yanjun's loud shout!

"Fuck! What the hell is this! Fuck! Is this screenwriter brain-damned?! Yeah shit!!"

Xia Tong: “.”

It seems that Zhou Yanjun did not sleep and is very awake and energetic.

After confirming this, Xia Tong raised her hand and knocked on the door loudly.

"Who am I supposed to rely on? In this day and age, there are actually people knocking on the door seriously? Is he one of our own?" Zhou Yanjun got out of bed and grumbled, "I should ask Zero to install a peephole on my bedroom door, so that if any criminals sneak in and intend to violate my innocent body——"

Xia Tong: “…”

The door opened, and Zhou Yanjun, wearing only a pair of large shorts, stood there with his eyes drooping. "Little man?" He paused, perhaps thinking of something incredible or something, but crossed his arms over his chest and said quietly, "What are you doing here?"

Xia Tong: "...I--" He licked his lips, stood up suddenly, and defended himself seriously: "I am absolutely not here to violate your innocent body!"

Zhou Yanjun: “…”

At this time, as long as one party is not embarrassed, the other party will definitely be embarrassed to death.

It is obvious that Xia Tong won this game!

Zhou Yanjun shrank his thick neck and said weakly, "What on earth are you going to do?"

Xia Tong: "Um...can you play with me for a while?"

Zhou Yanjun's mouth twitched: "Huh?"

Xia Tong put her hands behind her back and said, "I'm a little bored."

Zhou Yanjun: "Boring...why don't you just find something to eat?"

Xia Tong: "What are you eating?"

Zhou Yanjun: "...potato chips, spicy noodles, egg yolk pie, etc."

Xia Tong blinked her eyes: "Do you have it?"

Zhou Yanjun: “emmmm…”

Facing the little omega's clear and innocent eyes, Zhou Yanjun couldn't lie and said desperately, "I have them all. Come in."

Xia Tong raised her leg happily: "Thank you, Fatty!"

Zhou Yanjun suddenly said: "Hey wait a minute!"

Xia Tong: “?”

Zhou Yanjun: "Give me a minute!"

After saying that, he slammed the door shut. After a moment, he opened the door again and said breathlessly, "Come in."

Xia Tong stepped in without knowing why, and was then shocked by the scene in front of her.

Compared with Lin Mingfei's, calling Zhou Yanjun's bedroom a doghouse is a compliment. From the door to the balcony, clothes and pants are spread out to form a long "red carpet", suitable for all seasons. The quilt on the bed was made into a circular nest, and it was surrounded by food. The colorful packaging shells were more gorgeous than the clouds on the horizon.

Xia Tong's mouth opened wide in an instant: "Ah, this..."

"Just step on them! Those clothes on the ground are dirty, it's okay!" Zhou Yanjun said, "We used to have housekeepers at the base, but now that they're gone, I'm not used to it. I was planning to wash them all together tomorrow."

Xia Tong: "Oh."

Zhou Yanjun coughed and said, "I still wash the underwear! I have my bottom line!"

Xia Tong: "Oh." He walked around the "red carpet", went to Zhou Yanjun's bed, and sat down on the chair obediently.

Zhou Yanjun, like a giant Totoro, grabbed a handful of oatmeal chocolate and marshmallows and stuffed them into Xia Tong's arms. He then picked up the remote control on the bedside table and said, "Eat it! You're welcome!"

Xia Tong's attention was focused on his TV screen: "What are you watching?"

"The Temptation of Returning Home." Zhou Yanjun said, "Let's watch it together!"

Xia Tong opened a piece of marshmallow and put it in her mouth, saying excitedly: "Good!"

So the two of them started watching the 8 o'clock TV series together.

Xia Tong: "Huh? Why is this man hugging this woman?"

Zhou Yanjun: "Because they are dating."

Xia Tong: "But wasn't he hugging another woman just now?"

Zhou Yanjun cracked some melon seeds and mumbled, "This is the mistress."

Xia Tong: "Xiao San? Then was that Xiao Er?"

Zhou Yanjun: "...No, it's my ex-wife! We're divorced."

Xia Tong: "Top seven? Then this woman should be ranked eighth! Why is she called a mistress?"

Zhou Yanjun: “….”

Five minutes later, Xia Tong was holding a box of snacks and was grabbed by the collar and thrown to the door by Zhou Yanjun.

"Be good and eat by yourself. Don't disturb me watching TV!" Zhou Yanjun coaxed with gritted teeth and slammed the door.

Xia Tong pouted in grievance: "If you don't understand, just ask. What's wrong...why are you like this?" He sighed, took two steps forward, and walked to Bo Yu's bedroom.

"Dong Dong Dong"

The door of Bo Yu's bedroom opened quickly.

"What happened?" Bo Yu asked.

Xia Tong looked up and said innocently, "Can you take me out to play for a while, Xiao Bo?" He raised the snack box forward and said, "I can treat you to some snacks!"

Bo Yu was stunned for a moment, "Are you so excited about winning the game that you can't sleep?"

Xia Tong nodded: "Emm...about the same!"

Bo Yu: "Then come in."

Xia Tong obediently followed Bo Yu into the house and saw the sunlight falling on the balcony of Bo Yu's bedroom, which was filled with pots of green plants, including spider plants, cacti, and a row of cute and different small potted plants.

Bo Yu was watering a pot of azaleas. Xia Tong came over and asked curiously, "Wow, are all these flowers and plants raised by you, Xiao Bo?"

Bo Yu: “Yeah.”

Xia Tong: "This spider plant is so pretty! And this, this big yellow flower is so pretty!"

"This is the September chrysanthemum, which blooms in autumn. And there's one over there." Bo Yu pointed to a pot next to him and said, "That four-season azalea will bloom next spring. In the summer, I usually grow jasmine, which will be very fragrant then."

"Wow, you're amazing!" Xia Tong seemed to have opened the door to a new world. She clapped her hands and said, "Xiao Bo, can you teach me? I also want to learn how to grow flowers!"

Bo Yu: "Ah, there's no need to teach me this, it's very simple, just water it regularly."

Xia Tong said excitedly: "That's great too! I'll go out and buy some flowers to take care of now!" After saying that, he turned around and was about to run, but was stopped by Bo Yu.

"Oh, no need to go through so much trouble." Bo Yu said, "How about this, I'll give you a pot of succulents to take care of first. Succulents are the easiest to take care of and they look very cute." As he said that, he picked up a pot of chubby little fleshy plants in a pink pot on the windowsill and handed it to Xiaoting.

"This one is so cute!" Xia Tong held the tiny, delicate little succulent in her arms, unable to let go. "Speaking of which, is this how you water it—"

Bo Yu was stunned: "Oh, it's not this that can't be watered——"

Before he could finish his words, it was too late. Xia Tong had already enthusiastically picked up the watering can and poured water down on the poor little succulent plant...

Five minutes later, Xia Tong stood dejectedly at the door of Bo Yu's bedroom and turned to look at Shi Ya's bedroom door.

"Timer." He knocked on the door crying, "Brother Shi Ya, wuwuwuwu!"

Shi Ya opened the door with a click and asked in surprise, "What's wrong, Xia Xiaotong? What happened?"

Xia Tong said humbly: "I drowned the little thin and succulent girl, wuwuwuwu!!"

Shi Ya was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Ah, that's why... It's okay, Xiao Bo has plenty of succulent potted plants, so it doesn't matter if one is missing."

"I'm so stupid! I can't even grow flowers!" Xia Tong cried aggrievedly.

"Growing flowers is a science! You're not a professional." Shi Ya rubbed the top of his head and comforted him, "If it were me, I wouldn't know how to do it either. Forget about succulents. I could even kill a cactus."

"Really?" Xia Tong rubbed her eyes: "Brother Ya, what were you doing at that time..."

"Me? I'm not doing anything. I'm free." Shi Ya smiled and turned sideways: "Come in and play for a while?"

"Okay..." Xia Tong nodded and went in.

Shi Ya's bedroom is very different from the other people's bedrooms in style. It is obviously more bourgeois. There are two dried flowers in the vase on the bedside, an oil painting hangs on the wall, and a simple "Z"-shaped bookshelf is placed on the table, on which are placed basic hardcover books, such as literary classics.

"Sit wherever you want, even on my bed." Shi Ya said with a smile. He was wearing a pair of home trousers with a strong drape. He leaned lazily against the head of the bed like a medieval noble, with his knees slightly bent.

Xia Tong saw a fashion magazine spread out on Shi Ya's bed.

"Brother Shi Ya, is reading magazines your hobby?" he asked.

"I guess so? I like collecting little things." Shi Ya said, "Well, my cousin's birthday is next month, and I want to give her a brooch. She's also an omega, so you might as well come over and help me pick one out."

"Great!" Xia Tong became interested again and ran over happily.

He carefully read through the entire page, then pointed to one and said, "This dog with a sunflower head is so cute! The design is very creative! The colors are beautiful too! I think your cousin will love it!"

"Well, it's very cute." Shi Ya hesitated, "But... this is not a dog with a sunflower head, this is a lion."

Xia Tong: “?”

Xia Xiaotong, who was good for nothing, walked out of Shi Ya's bedroom dejectedly, his head drooping like a ripe persimmon.

After walking past Zhou Yanjun's door, he subconsciously turned and went straight in. After entering, he realized that he had walked into the wrong room and accidentally broke into Lin Mingfei's bedroom.

Xia Tong stood there for a while, took a deep breath, and had to admit that Lin Mingfei's bedroom made him feel more at home.

He raised his head, looked around, and carefully examined the furnishings in the room again.

It was neat and bright. There was a headphone box and a Bluetooth speaker on the bedside, and a box of used game discs with the lid still on top of the set-top box.

Back in the Zheng family, Zheng Linchuan's mother liked to watch some TV dramas with a very old feel, so she stockpiled a lot of discs. Sometimes when Xia Tong was bored while they were away, he would go to the storage room to get one or two to play. He knew that some discs would get stuck if the back was scratched, and in serious cases, they would be completely unusable.

So he walked over, carefully put the game disc back into the box, and closed the lid.

He paused and suddenly felt that it was a good feeling to help Lin Mingfei in this way.

Ah... it's a pity that Lin Mingfei is so self-disciplined! Even the sheets are made neatly without wrinkles. There is nothing he can do to help!

Xia Tong looked around and suddenly saw a small bamboo basket on the balcony of Lin Mingfei's bedroom.

The bamboo basket was out of tune with the surrounding decorations. Xia Tong walked over and bent down to take a look, and found that it was full of sweatshirts and underwear!

The little omega's eyes gradually brightened.

The clothing customization shop that He Youjin found was quite good. Lin Mingfei originally wanted to finalize the cooperation right away, but He Youjin insisted on bargaining because he was chatting enthusiastically with the other party's agent. Lin Mingfei was a little helpless and had to wait on the side. Suddenly, her cell phone vibrated.

Xia Xiaotong has sent you a video call invitation.

Lin Mingfei clicked to accept.

"Brother, brother!" The little omega's delighted face appeared on the screen. He said happily, "I've found my hobby!"

"Oh?" Lin Mingfei was stunned and smiled. "That's great. What is it?"

Xia Tong said: "I can help you wash clothes!"

Lin Mingfei's smile gradually became confused.

"Washing clothes?" He said confusedly, "I don't have any dirty clothes to wash for you?"

"Who said that! I found a basket of your clothes here!" Xia Tong turned the camera and landed on the bamboo basket filled with sweatshirts and shorts. The little omega's high-spirited voice kept ringing off-screen, "I'll go get some water first! I'll help you wash them all later! Hehe!"

Lin Mingfei: "Wait! Wait a moment!"

Xia Tong: "Huh?"

Lin Mingfei said hurriedly: "Move the camera further away."

Xia Tong: "Oh."

As the camera moved, Lin Mingfei finally saw the entire bamboo basket clearly.

"These aren't my clothes." He gritted his teeth. "I don't wear sweatshirts that look like capes! And I definitely don't wear pants with oversized waists!"

Xia Tong was confused: "Ah...so what?"

"Turn on the speakerphone." Lin Mingfei gritted her teeth and said, suppressing her anger, "Then turn your phone toward the balcony to your right and turn the volume up to the maximum."

Xia Tong: "Oh, okay! It's ok."

Lin Mingfei took a deep breath and roared:

"Zhou Yanjun!!! If you dare to smuggle your underwear into my room again, I'll tear your head off and stuff it up your ass!!!"
