Chapter 14 Gentle Neighbor



Xu Moshu's eyes were shining with smile, his tall and slender figure stood in front of Chu Chenan, and the atmosphere gradually became anxious and depressing.

Xu Moshu once again said something very similar to what Chen An said.

This will be another warning for Chu Chenan.

Xu Moshu's probing eyes seemed to see through him bit by bit. Chu Chenan was stunned for two seconds, avoiding Xu Moshu's gaze.

He quickly put the spoon behind him back into the sink.

"I accidentally put too much on, and I... don't like it that much either."

He turned around and picked up his own plate, his palms trembling slightly. There were tiny scratches on the old plate, and a few slices of bread were placed on it.

Seeing that Chu Chenan didn't say anything, Xu Moshu turned sideways and let him go out.

Chu Chenan sat down at the dining table, reluctantly wiped off the sweet jam with a spoon, quietly picked up a piece of dry bread and began to bite it.

His cheeks were puffed as he chewed slowly, while he glanced vigilantly at Xu Moshu out of the corner of his eye.

...

...

Zhang Liang walked into the kitchen and made a few more dishes of breakfast, which he served to Chu Chenan attentively.

"Chen'an." Zhang Liang glanced at Chu Chen'an's pretty face. Her red lips were stained with a few drops of rose-colored jam, which was bright and attractive. His Adam's apple rolled a few times, and his ears turned slightly red. "I specially put more jam on you that you like to eat."

"You must be mistaken. I don't like it."

Chu Chenan didn't even raise his head. He bit the dry bread, drooped his eyelids, and no longer cared about others.

The system prompted in his mind:

Please confirm your task today:

1. Complete the cannon fodder daily tasks.

2. Complete the first mission as soon as possible. Deadline: 3 days. 】

[If the task is not completed within 3 days, it will be automatically considered as a resurrection task failure. 】

Chu Chenan thought carefully, stopped chewing nervously, and sighed.

These three days will be the critical period for whether he can complete the task.

He felt vaguely uneasy for some unknown reason.

Zhang Liang seemed to be immune to Chu Chenan's cold words. He sat opposite Chu Chenan and watched Chu Chenan eat attentively.

Chu Chenan's face was soft and fair, and her eyes were bright and lively, cold and charming, which aroused Zhang Liang's desire to conquer her.

Zhang Liang wanted to break the pride of this white and attractive flower and trample it in the mud, so that Chu Chenan would never dare to ignore him again and regard him as a dirty and inferior rat.

He wanted to humiliate Chu Chenan's pride.

Get him, trample him...

Zhang Liang's eyes were dim. He stared at Chu Chenan's face without showing any anger, and slightly raised the corners of his lips.

Had breakfast.

They just sat on the sofa, looking at each other in silence.

I sat there in silence until two o'clock in the afternoon.

Li Yaya clenched her palms, leaving many bloody marks on her hands. Her face was pale and beads of sweat were sealed on her furrowed brows.

She kept staring at the clock on the wall, afraid of missing a minute.

“Su Yu is dead, so why should we go looking for her?!” She looked up at Zhang Liang, staring at him fiercely: “Even if…even if we go looking for her, can she still be alive?! Ah! Why is this happening! I…why am I always so unlucky?”

"Will those things let us go?!"

Li Yaya and Su Yu used to be very close, so close that they even knew each other's payment passwords. But now, less than three days after coming to the community, Li Yaya has forgotten their previous sisterly love, exposing her own selfishness and indifference.

"Be quiet." Zhang Liang frowned and said, "Will shouting help?"

Chu Chenan was given a headache by the sharp screams. He took out his Bluetooth headphones and started listening to music, turning up the volume to try to cover up the sharp and piercing voice.

He hugged himself, leaned back on the sofa, closed his eyes and dozed off.

Xu Moshu was not idle either. He sat beside Chu Chenan, carefully carving a piece of wood with a wooden knife. His knuckles were clearly slender, and his fingertips were rubbing the surface of the sandalwood.

Li Yaya cried for more than ten minutes and then stopped, holding Zhang Liang's arm tightly.

Li Yaya trembled, looked around at the three people carefully, and said, "That person didn't say when to go find him, so we can... go down now, right?"

Chu Chenan took off his headphones, stretched lazily, and looked at Zhang Liang.

Zhang Liang pondered for a while, frowning and hesitant.

Seeing Xu Moshu's leisurely look, he frowned and asked him, "Xu Moshu, what do you think?"

"It seems to be possible." Xu Moshu placed the sandalwood that had not yet been carved into a shape on the table and elegantly brushed off the sawdust in his hands.

"Can we reconsider this..." Zhang Liang and Xu Moshu looked at each other, feeling an indescribable sense of oppression.

"You guys can wait if you want. I don't want to wait any longer." Chu Chenan stood up, stretched his shoulders twice, and walked straight to the door. He pretended to be sarcastic and said, "I've waited for so long, but it's a waste of time."

In fact, he hadn't completed his daily cannon fodder mission for the day.

He is determined to be a cannon fodder with perfect attendance, and always does stupid things that cannon fodders do to show his ability.

Chu Chenan was wearing a light blue short-sleeved shirt today, which made his skin look even whiter and softer.

"Hey, wait for us, Chen An..." Zhang Liang stood up, and while being pulled by Li Yaya, he followed Chu Chen An's pace.

After Xu Moshu put the wood carvings in place, he slowly stood up and walked at the end of the crowd.

They went down to the sixth floor. The red light and shadow at the entrance of the corridor was dark and creepy, and Chu Chenan got goose bumps when he saw it.

Bloodstains began to appear at the stairwell on the sixth floor and spread all the way to the stairwell on the fifth floor, like traces of dragging.

Li Yaya grabbed Zhang Liang's clothes and walked down along the winding blood trail shivering.

They stopped at the staircase on the fifth floor.

There was a dark brown mass of unknown substance next to the garbage corner, which made Chu Chenan feel sick.

The dark brown liquid gave off a strong sour and damp smell, which spread over the entire floor at the stairwell. If one wanted to pass the stairwell and turn to the corridor, one had to step on the liquid.

He took a few steps back, grabbed the handrail, turned around, walked back 10 steps past the crowd, his eyes slightly red, and he almost cried.

He sat down directly on the steps, his fair little hands tightly gripping the iron railing.

too……

So disgusting.

Zhang Liang walked up and patted Chu Chenan on the shoulder: "Chenan, what's wrong with you?"

Chu Chenan turned sideways, his eyelids drooping, and uttered a soft voice, "I won't go over there, it's disgusting, if you want to go, you guys go, I'm going to sit here."

After saying that, he hugged the iron railing tightly again, pursed his lips and said nothing.

His eyelashes were curled and his little face was pink, making him look like a weak and gentle kitten.

Chu Chenan no longer cared about his mission as a cannon fodder. He had lost his previous dignity and aloofness. He held on to the iron railing and refused to let go no matter how hard Zhang Liang pulled.

"Chen An, stop it. It's dangerous for you to sit here alone."

Zhang Liang tried to pull Chu Chenan up again, but Chu Chenan still refused to listen.

Chu Chenan didn't want to step over that disgusting pool of blood.

He had smelled that disgusting smell in the morgue in real life.

His body was placed in the morgue.

The room was dark and scary.

The more he thought about it, the more he was reluctant to leave.

Zhang Liang tried to persuade her several times but to no avail, and gradually lost his patience, "Chen An, can you please stop being unreasonable at this time..."

"That's right, Chu Chenan," Li Yaya grabbed Zhang Liang's arm and said dissatisfiedly, "Is this the time for you to be squeamish? You were the one who wanted to go downstairs, and now you are the one who says you don't want to leave. What do you want?"

Li Yaya had been suppressed for a long time, so she took the opportunity to scold Chu Chenan, "Don't think that just because you are good-looking, we will all spoil you. If Zhang Liang didn't like you..."

"Okay," Zhang Liang interrupted Li Yaya, "just shut up."

Xu Moshu leaned his elbows on the armrest. He was not annoyed by Chu Chenan's pampering, but found it amusing instead.

"It doesn't count if you don't knock on the door," Xu Moshu looked at Zhang Liang, "How about this, you go to the corridor first and don't knock on the door. I'll stay here with Chen An, and we'll decide which door to look for after we go down to the fourth floor together."

Zhang Liang nodded and dragged Li Yaya towards the stairs to the fifth floor.

After the two of them turned into the stairs, Xu Moshu squatted leisurely in front of Chu Chenan, looking at Chu Chenan's pitiful little face with curiosity.

Chu Chenan was wearing a pair of white shorts that just reached his knees, and his slender white calves were resting on the steps.

Xu Moshu squatted in front of Chu Chenan, and saw the porcelain-like skin close at hand.

"Anchor Xiao An's expression changes so quickly." Xu Moshu lowered his eyes, his gaze wandering over Chu Chenan's slender ankles, "Wasn't he rushing to be the first one to walk in front just now?"

Chu Chenan hugged the iron railing, too lazy to retort to Xu Moshu, and looked to the other side with his head turned sideways.

He remained silent and indifferent while weakly retracting his feet.

"Did we know each other before?" Xu Moshu suddenly asked.

Chu Chenan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He tightened his grip and pretended to be calm, "Of course I don't know him."

"Can you tell me why you hate me?"

Suddenly, Xu Moshu raised his hand and easily grabbed Chu Chenan's ankle which he wanted to retract.

Chu Chenan's ankles are slender, white and soft to the touch.

"What are you doing?" Chu Chenan opened his eyes wide in panic, his weak eyes flashed with panic, "Let go, let go..."

Xu Moshu was very strong and Chu Chenan couldn't break free from him at all.

"Tell me the reason and I'll let you go."

Xu Moshu slowly picked off the cotton wool on his calf, his deep eagle eyes slightly narrowed.

"Because..." Chu Chenan was busy trying to break away from Xu Moshu. Without thinking too much, he said in a low voice with a snort, "Because I felt that you were not a good person the first time I saw you."

Xu Moshu was stunned.

After releasing Chu Chenan's ankle, he began to laugh with his head down, revealing his white and neat teeth. His laughter was rich and echoed in the silent stairwell, making the atmosphere gradually become weird.

"Ha ha……"

Xu Moshu stared at Chu Chenan and smiled.

His Chen An always seems like a simple little kitten.

The kitten always looked at him with weak eyes and said to him simply: "Don't listen to them, I think you are a good person."

Later, he selfishly took the kitten for himself. The kitten cried and regretted every night, calling him a bad guy.

"Ha... I like this reason."

Xu Moshu's eyes were filled with unknown emotions, and his laughter slowly faded away. "So do you think I'm a bad person?"
