Strange Things in the Middle of the Night

So some people suspect that Cen Yuan is a stamp collector, and the condition for becoming a stamp collector is to be able to afford an SX, and it has to be silver.

Seeing everyone looking at other people's cars, Jin Man sat down next to Yu Xiushi and said to Cheng Zeyu who was walking over, "Zeyu, do you like the SX? How about I buy you one? What color do you like?"

Cheng Zeyu glanced at Yu Xiushi and said with a smile, "If you want to buy it, I'll buy it for you."

Jin Man couldn't take her eyes off him, and Yu Xiu Shi felt that the two of them were an eyesore but had to explain the play to Cheng Zeyu with a cold face.

Cheng Zeyu kept nodding, not daring to express his opinion at all.

Jin Man had never seen Cheng Zeyu so timid in front of her cousin before, and she was a little dissatisfied: "Cousin, why are you so strict? I think Zeyu acted very well."

Yu Xiushi sneered: "Xie Qi still thinks it's best to change people."

Jin Man pursed his lips: "Who does he think he is?"

In Jin Man's eyes, Xie Qi was just a man who thought with his lower body. She looked down on such a man who lost his way after having a little money.

She muttered a few words before being interrupted impatiently by Yu Xiushi, "It doesn't matter who he is. What matters is that he's not a professional but can act better than your husband!"

Cheng Zeyu looked surprised. He didn't even notice the sarcasm in Yu Xiushi's words when he called him "your husband". It was rare to see Yu Xiushi say who performed well except for those who were really talented.

Even he found it difficult to get Yu Xiushi to praise him.

Jin Man didn't believe it, and Yu Xiu Shi was too lazy to pay attention to her.

There is not much to talk about with Jin Man, who was brought up in pampering.

Cheng Zeyu truly felt a sense of crisis this time, and he kept making mistakes while thinking about things. Yu Xiushi couldn't help but scold him, even scolding Jin Man who tried to speak up for him.

Now, no one dared to breathe, and Jin Man also stayed quietly. She had to talk for a long time before they agreed to let her visit the set.

Ever since she released the news that she and Cheng Zeyu had obtained their marriage certificate, her fans suddenly went viral because of her sister-in-law.

It was even revealed that Cheng Zeyu had taken leave that day specifically to get the marriage certificate, which made things even more out of control. Cheng Zeyu's fans were furious. Jin Man had never been scolded so harshly before, and she was not a weak person.

On the one hand, she feels that she has good taste because so many people scold her, but on the other hand, she wonders why these fans look down on her?

The more she was scolded, the more rebellious she became. She just wanted to stay by Cheng Zeyu's side to assert her sovereignty. She just wanted to see these fans helpless and furious, unable to do anything to her.

She looked at her handsome husband, but still couldn't believe it. Zeyu had obviously acted so well, and her cousin said that just because he was angry with her.

Zeng Xin, who was standing by, felt so tired seeing her unable to hide her pride.

This young lady had found so many things for her to do for no reason, and she looked so happy. If it were someone else, she would have started a fight long ago.

Since Yu Xiushi didn't say anything, she could only endure it. After all, they were all acquaintances.

I can't laugh.

Zheng Jijue observed for a long time, but still didn't see Cen Yuan until dinner was served next door. He then realized that Cen Yuan was likely nearby with Xie Qi that afternoon.

The most famous places nearby are the two dating spots, one is the Lover's Lake two blocks away, and the other is the Couples Hotel.

Zeng Xin, who was strolling around, was caught off guard by his dark eyes and felt that his anger could burn her from such a distance.

The window closed with a bang.

Zeng Xin was baffled. What was going on today? Everyone was so angry.

In the blink of an eye, I saw Cheng Zeyu and Jin Man sitting together for dinner, and my head hurt even more. This young lady said she would come again tomorrow. She felt that their crew would be on the hot search again.

All the good reputation is gone.

She said that Tao Junling obviously didn't like Cheng Zeyu's type, so why did he push Cheng Zeyu again and again? It turned out that this young lady was behind it.

Now think about it, when Yu Xiushi asked Tao Junling about Jin Man at the Starlight Ceremony, he went to find Cheng Zeyu and was seen by Yu Xiushi, right?

I'm really impressed by her for not being able to get angry with her at all.

At night, the cold wind howled.

Zheng Jicue was wearing home clothes and a down jacket, squatting in the yard.

The ground was littered with grass, rocks, flight feathers, and a few tufts of hair.

He couldn't sleep, and when he got up to drink water, he seemed to smell a faint unpleasant odor, and then he heard some movement in the yard.

The sound is quite loud.

There were birds singing, cats meowing, he looked outside the door, and there were also the sounds of dogs barking and someone scratching at the door.

It was so lively late at night, so he went downstairs and saw that the cat and the bird were fighting.

The dog outside the door kept barking.

Seeing someone coming, several cats ran away and birds flew to the trees outside the villa.

Zheng Jijue looked at the dug hole and used his cell phone light to check the seeds he had planted. Only when he saw the familiar black oval seeds did he feel relieved.

He could still hear the threatening sounds of cats and dogs in his ears, but he didn't think too much about it. He put away the seeds and went home.

After he wrapped the seeds with gauze, he heard rustling sounds from the door and windows. The doors and windows were automatically controlled, and they were closed at night unless he opened them himself.

However, he was still worried and checked them one by one.

Sensing someone approaching, the cat scratching at the window stopped, purred, and jumped down.

Gradually, there was no sound at all.

Zheng Jichou turned on the surveillance screen and saw crows flying around the villa outside the yard, several cats circling the villa, and a dog never leaving the gate.

Zheng Jicue looked puzzledly at the seeds that he had wrapped and placed in a glass jar on the table.

He opened it and smelled it, only to smell a faint fruity aroma, completely different from the smell he smelled when he got up to drink water.

Just then, there was a banging sound coming from the doors and windows. Zheng Jicue calmly closed the lids, and soon everything was quiet again.

He sat cross-legged on the bed, looking at the glass jar on the bedside cabinet. From time to time, he could hear the sound of crows flapping their wings outside the window.

He thought the seeds were nothing special, and he still remembered the sweetness of the flesh when he put it in his mouth. Apart from being different from the nectarine flesh he had eaten before, there was nothing special about it.

The flesh is so red that it's blood-red, and I'm still alive today after eating it.

It may be that the small animals have not eaten it and are more sensitive to the taste.

There was no movement in the second half of the night. From the surveillance footage, the stray cats and dogs were either sitting or lying down, staring at the location of his room.

A bit weird.

He remembered that a few days ago, someone in his family said in the group that the property management had recently caught a lot of stray cats and dogs and sent them for sterilization.

The cats and dogs outside the villa did not look like they had been neutered, so Zheng Jicue took a screenshot and sent it to the group.

Zheng Jijue: @Home has a building

Zheng Jicue: Can all these cats and dogs be sterilized tomorrow?

Having a house like this is why I can cross the street with Zheng Jichou and the others and stay up late drinking, even in the middle of the night.

There is a building at home: Damn, why are there so many small animals in your house?

My old swan: It seems that they know that Brother Zheng is a rich man, so they come to ask for support.

Zheng Jicue: I will pay for the sterilization.

Own a house: No problem, I know where to find cheap and affordable ones, and they’re guaranteed to be clean.

There is pie in the sky: It made me feel cold in the lower body late at night.

Neither heaven nor earth: What's so cold about it? Didn't you say the baby hasn't been born yet? Let's play games!

I'm a doctor, listen to me: staying up late can lead to impotence and baldness. Look at my ID.

My old swan: ...

Pie in the sky: ...

Neither heaven nor earth: ...

There is a building at home: ...Then why haven’t you slept yet?

I'm a doctor, listen to me: night shift.

Finally, after listening to my selfie of myself in a white coat covered in blood and smiling weirdly, everyone dispersed and went to bed early.

When Zheng Jijue woke up, his family had already brought people to catch all the animals that were still wandering around his house.

After he saw that the yard was clean, he looked at the hole he had made last night and wondered whether he should continue planting there.

When Cen Yuan came to work, he saw the property staff dragging away the cursing cats and dogs. When they passed by Cen Yuan, the arrogant cats and dogs all fell silent.

The property management staff were completely baffled.

"I don't know why so many stray animals have been running towards us these days. It would be terrible if one accidentally hurts someone." The property staff complained in a low voice.

There were still many crows circling in the sky. It seemed that all the crows in Beijing were flying towards this side. When a few crows collided head-on with Cen Yuan, they turned sharply and flew away in a panic.

Zheng Jicue held a shovel and watched the crows fly away in panic. His gaze moved around and finally landed on Cen Yuan.

At this moment, it felt like everything around me had been paused.

Cen Yuan had a smile on his face, and he looked extremely gentle, and it felt like the distance between them was getting closer and closer.

It was not until Cen Yuan stood outside the gate that Zheng Ji Jue realized what was happening and ran to the door.

"Good morning."

Zheng Jijue replied stupidly: "Good morning."

Passing by the deep pit behind him, Cen Yuan asked him, "Did you plant the seeds of the fruit I gave you?"

Zheng Ji Jue: "Hmm. Hmm? How did you know?" He realized his tone was a little anxious, so he quickly calmed down and said, "Um... I didn't mean anything else."

"It's okay. Once the seed is planted, it will attract animals with a keen sense of smell to dig it up and eat it as it grows."

Because it was winter, most people didn't notice that the few remaining green areas in the area had disappeared.

The nutrients absorbed from the ground gradually allow the seed to grow, emitting a scent that attracts the flesh and blood it needs for the next step of growth.

"So that's how it is."

It seems that it cannot be planted.

"If you want to keep it, just burn it for a few minutes until the surface becomes smooth."

Although it was regrettable, Zheng Jijue could only ask, "What kind of fruit is this? It's so strange?"

He saw that Cen Yuan ate one or two almost every day, so he wondered if he could grow it. However, this thing was too conspicuous, and it probably disappeared before he could grow it.

Cen Yuan: "It's a new variety. My family has one. It's been growing for many years and it's only bearing fruit this year."

When Zheng Ji Jue heard that it was so rare, he wanted to grow it even more.

Before I could even ask Cen Yuan how he could grow it safely, he shook his head and said, "It's very difficult to grow and easily robbed. It takes at least one or two hundred years of ordinary cultivation to see results."

There were no thieves the past few days because he was filming here every day. Anyone who saw him would have to avoid him. He didn't come yesterday afternoon, and the seeds had just absorbed enough nutrients, which attracted those small animals.

Zheng Jijue was torn. Looking at his expression, how could Cen Yuan not know? He smiled and said, "You don't believe it?"

Zheng Jijue quickly denied: "No."

It was rare for her to stand so close to Cen Yuan. When he denied, she didn't dare look at Cen Yuan. She lowered her eyes and happened to see his collarbone exposed by his round-neck T-shirt. She couldn't help but think of what happened yesterday. Her eyes wandered over his neck, but she didn't find any bad signs.

Gradually, I lost myself in thought, looking up little by little, even his chin was so beautiful, and his perfect lips, which seemed to have a smile on them, but they were not smiling lips. He was always so gentle and humble to everyone, and I had never heard of him having a quarrel with anyone.

The more he looked, the more he lost himself in thought, his Adam's apple unconsciously sliding down until it met Cen Yuan's eyes.

Suddenly, I was in great confusion and my heart was beating like a drum.
