Chapter 13

In the room, Luo Zhi was sitting beside the bed, Luo Yu was sitting on a swivel chair, and one man and one ghost were wearing gloves and gnawing on juicy spicy chicken wings.

Luo Yu asked, "Is it spicy?"

Luo Zhi nodded: "A little, but I can accept it."

Luo Yu took the chicken wing in his mouth, opened the lid of the Coke cup on the table, and handed it to him: "Here, let's relieve the spiciness."

Luo Zhi ate the meat at the tail end of the chicken wing and threw the left and right wing bones into the trash can before taking the Coke and drinking it.

The man and the ghost finished a family meal in this way, and finally took turns to go to the toilet to brush their teeth secretly. They walked a few steps in fear, for fear of disturbing the sleeping father and mother.

The next day.

Crack, bang, clang!

I don’t know what kind of acrobatic performance is going on in the living room, and the noise is so loud that it makes people want to complain.

Luo Yu half closed his eyes, frowned and glanced to the side.

There was no ghost, and he was the only one in the bed.

Luo Yu suddenly had an idea, jumped out of bed, bent down and looked under the bed.

Sure enough, I saw Luo Zhi disappear.

Luo Yu put his head under the bed and whispered, "My room door is locked. They can't get in. There's no need to crawl under the bed."

Luo Zhi turned his head and said quietly, "Go out and have breakfast first to avoid suspicion. Come back after you finish eating. I have something to discuss with you."

"What's the matter?" Luo was filled with curiosity and couldn't leave.

Luo Zhi insisted that he go out first, and this time his tone was almost an order that could not be disobeyed. He said, "Go out and have breakfast, and come back and talk."

Luo Yu curled his lips and had to leave in disappointment.

Just as he was about to put more pressure on the handle, he loosened his grip and returned to the bed. "How was the bun from that place we ate last time? Do you want to eat it again?"

Luo Zhi was a little amused and confused. How could this guy be so slow to go out for breakfast? He urged: "I don't need to eat, go out quickly."

Luo Yu said: "Okay, then you wait for me."

Luo Zhi hummed, "Well, go ahead."

Luo and Nian Nian looked at him reluctantly for a few seconds before leaving the room where the beautiful girl was hidden.

Only after leaving the room did I know where the noise came from.

In the living room, Xu Xiaoxia was standing on a stepladder, sweeping the dust from the ceiling light with a feather duster. Luo Zeping, on the other hand, held onto the ladder tightly, preventing her from falling if she strayed.

Luo Yu said, "Mom, why are you cleaning so early in the morning? This is unlucky."

Xu Xiaoxia lowered her head and glared at him, saying, "Nonsense! Look at the sky outside, how blue it is. Look at the sun, how bright it is. Isn't this auspicious?!"

Luo Zeping agreed, "Yes, yes, good luck." Then he muttered softly, "It's a pity that I can't get a good night's sleep."

Luo Yu cast a sympathetic look at his father and said, "Dad, me too."

Xu Xiaoxia couldn't bear to hear the two people complaining, "Luo Yu, throw those bags of garbage from the kitchen downstairs!"

Luo Yu hesitated for a moment, a little worried that the room would be opened during the few minutes he was away. Although Luo Zeping and Xu Xiaoxia usually would not enter his room, he was afraid of what might happen.

"What are you daydreaming about? Do you have to think about even throwing away garbage?" Xu Xiaoxia urged.

Luo Yu said, "No, no, uh... I'll go change my clothes and come down right away." Then he ran back to the room.

As soon as the door closed, Luo Yu immediately rushed to the bottom of the bed, looked at that superior profile, and whispered, "Luo Zhi, I'm going to be out for a few minutes. Come and lock the door of the room. I'm afraid my dad will suddenly break in."

"It's wrong to lock the door." Luo Zhi comforted him, "It's okay, go ahead. Even if you come in, you won't look under the bed."

Luo Yu was still a little worried, but there was nothing he could do. He said, "Okay. I'll go down then."

After Luo Yu finished speaking, he stood up and walked out of the room, but he heard Luo Zeping's suspicious voice.

"Huh?"

Luo Zeping looked Luo Yu up and down, and after confirming that his clothes were the same as before, he said, "Didn't you say you wanted to change clothes? Why haven't you changed yet?"

“…”

Damn, I actually forgot about this.

Luo Yu calmed down for a while, then said something as steady as a rock: "Oh, the closet is too messy, so I don't want to change it."

Luo Zeping nodded without saying anything and told him to go and come back quickly.

After Luo Yu took the garbage out, Xu Xiaoxia came down from the ladder not long after and told Luo Zeping, "Move the ladder to Luo Yu's room. I don't know how many layers of cobwebs have grown on his ceiling. This kid is really becoming less and less clean."

Under the bed, Luo Zhi was clasping his hands together and listening to the noise outside with his eyes closed. At this moment, the footsteps outside became clearer and clearer, and it sounded like they were coming towards the door of the room.

Luo Zhi frowned, thinking that this shouldn't be the case. Luo Yu had said that they would not enter his room unless necessary. Could it be that Luo Yu had accidentally let something slip again?

With a "click", the door of the room was opened and two people walked in.

Luo Zhi breathed silently, and with his eyes slightly open, he glanced at the steps of the two people through the only visible line of sight under the bed.

As long as he didn't have the same habit of looking under the bed as Luo Yu, everything would be fine. But I was afraid that Luo Yu's habit was hereditary.

"Oh my god, look at all those spider webs on the door! Wow! Other people raise little ghosts, but he raises spiders!"

Xu Xiaoxia's scolding and coaxing voice sounded like a heavy hammer hitting Luo Zhi, and he took a deep breath.

I secretly prayed that they would not look under the bed.

"Okay, just clean up. Why are you so angry? Look how sunny it is today."

"Like what?"

"Looks like you, but the sun pales in comparison to you. Your smile is the most beautiful in the world..."

"Get lost! This is so corny! You must have watched too much TV."

"Hahahaha... I'm just speaking the truth. My wife is the most beautiful woman in the world."

Luo Zhi listened to their conversation and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. It would be great if their family could continue to live like this.

Xu Xiaoxia climbed up the stepladder and said, "You don't have to hold it anymore. Go get the mop and mop his room, especially under the bed. He doesn't know how dirty it is."

Luo Zhi's heart suddenly tightened.

Then he relaxed again, and heard Luo Zeping say, "The bottom of his bed is not dirty. When I mopped the floor a few days ago, I even mopped under his bed several times."

Xu Xiaoxia: "You are just lazy!"

At this time, Luo Yu, who had gone out to throw away the garbage, came back. As soon as he opened the door, he saw that his room had been invaded. His hair immediately stood on end and he couldn't help but rush over and curse: "Fuck! Dad, what are you doing in here!?"

Xu Xiaoxia was startled by his voice and nearly slipped. Fortunately, she grabbed the door in time to prevent the accident. She said, "I cleaned your room and you fucked me. Do you have a hidden room?"

Luo Zeping was also startled by Luo Yu's extreme reaction and couldn't help but stay staring at his face for a few more seconds.

Luo Yu saw that nothing had happened and everything was normal, and he felt as if he had been pardoned. He said, "I'm 22 after all, so I should have a little privacy."

Xu Xiaoxia laughed: "Oh, this child is different now that he has grown up. He won't even let anyone into his room."

After clearing the spider web, she and Luo Zeping carried the ladder out.

In order to look more natural, Luo Yu followed them out. When he went downstairs, he went to the nearest breakfast shop to buy some breakfast.

Luo Zeping saw the breakfast on the coffee table and said to Luo Yu, "Is the breakfast shop having a promotion today? Why are you buying so much?"

On the coffee table, there were probably about ten buns, five fried dough sticks, five cups of soy milk, and three bowls of spicy soup.

The Luo family's usual breakfast consists of six steamed buns and three bowls of spicy soup. If there were no activities today, it would be too abnormal.

Luo Yu smiled and said, "No, I have a good appetite recently and my food intake has increased a lot."

Puff——

Xu Xiaoxia didn't know what she was thinking about, and suddenly she covered her mouth and laughed.

“…” Luo Yu felt that Ms. Xu Xiaoxia’s smile was a bit weird.

Luo Zeping picked up a bun and said while chewing, "Eat quickly, the buns are getting cold."

In order to cover up his lie, Luo Yu forced himself to drink three cups of soy milk, ate two fried dough sticks, five meat buns, and a bowl of spicy soup. His stomach was already in great pain, but he still forced himself to look as if he was still not satisfied.

Xu Xiaoxia was stunned.

Luo Yu pretended not to see it. He pointed at the buns on the coffee table and said, "Mom, do you still want to eat these?"

Xu Xiaoxia shook her head.

Luo Yu said, "Then I'll take it back to my room and continue eating." He swept away the buns, fried dough sticks and soy milk on the table.

After Luo Yu closed the room, Xu Xiaoxia slipped over to Luo Zeping and sat next to him. She said, "Is it normal for Luo Yu to be like this?"

Luo Zeping finished the last sip of soy milk and said, "Aren't you very happy?"

Xu Xiaoxia was full of suspicion: "I was quite happy at first, even though Luo Yu is with that Wang Sanpao, but how can a relationship increase one's appetite so much?"

Luo Zeping didn't say anything, and the couple began to fall into deep thought.

"The location of the ghost has been determined."

Inside the room, Luo Zhi sat on a swivel chair, holding a bun in his hand. He continued while eating, "But that place is a bit tricky, so you have to leave the human world for at least three days."

Luo Yu sat on the edge of the bed, watching Luo Zhi bite, chew, and swallow in fascination. After a long while, he said, "Hmm, it looks really good."

"?"

Luo Zhi looked over and said to him, "If you want to leave for three days, you have to find a reason that your parents will believe."

Luo Yu nodded three times and said with a smile, "That's easy. Haven't I been failing interviews these past few days?" He suddenly straightened up, clasped his hands together, and closed his eyes. "I just said I was severely frustrated and was going to a mountain temple to meditate for a week."

“…” Luo Zhi nodded slowly. This reason was indeed acceptable.

Generally, there is no signal in the mountains, and Zen meditation requires quietness, so try not to be disturbed by the outside world during practice.

Luo Yu opened his eyes: "I will tell my parents later, and then we can leave in the evening."

"No rush." ​​Luo Zhi said, "We'll set off tomorrow night. Now we have to wait for any news."

Luo Yu was a little confused: "What news are you waiting for?"

Luo Zhi sighed that Luo Yu was really magnanimous. He had actually forgotten about such an important matter. He said, "If the police dig up the body buried under the tree, they will definitely come after us."

"So we won't be going to the underworld these two days. We'll just wait in the human world to see if there's any news. If there's no news, then they probably haven't dug anything up. Then we don't have to worry about the police contacting us during our time in the underworld."

Luo Yu felt that his stupidity was getting worse. He said, "I actually neglected this." He frowned and said bitterly, "Luo Zhi, you are with me every day, do you think I am particularly stupid?"

“…” Luo Zhi looked at him for a few seconds and then turned his gaze away, looking at the tall buildings outside the window.

After a moment, he only said a short sentence: "It's good to be stupid." He deliberately lowered his voice, sounding like he was comforting.

Luo Yuye followed him and looked towards the window. The moment he saw the green basket on the windowsill, he suddenly remembered something. He looked at Luo Zhi and said, "Little Fish Flower!"
