Night fell.
Su Ci looked at Lu Zhe who was cooking dinner in the kitchen. She took the initiative to walk over and asked, "Do you want me to help you?"
He refused coldly, "No need."
Lu Zhe was wearing a blue and white summer school uniform. The boy was handsome and youthful. Su Ci often saw Lu Zhe wearing a suit. Now looking at Lu Zhe in his school uniform, she suddenly felt a sense of freshness.
Su Ci looked at him with bright eyes.
Lu Zhe was stir-frying the dishes skillfully. He wanted to pick up the empty plate next to him, but the girl had already handed it to him obediently.
He glanced at her.
There was no dining table in the living room. Lu Zhe moved a folding table out of the small utility room and set it open.
Seeing that his legs made it difficult for him to walk, Su Ci obediently went to the kitchen to get a rag, dipped it in water, and began to wipe the table. After wiping, she looked at Lu Zhe with praise, but the boy didn't even look at her, and went to the kitchen to bring out the dishes.
Lu Zhe simply made two dishes, fried eggs with tomatoes, and fried pork slices with cucumbers.
Su Ci was not picky about food, and she ate obediently.
The dining table was very quiet.
While she was eating, she looked at Lu Zhe with her peripheral vision.
His current condition was more serious than she had ever seen before. The boy had a cold expression, his cheeks were slightly sunken, and he looked obviously sick.
Su Ci pursed her lips. In the past few years, after Lu Zhe ate the golden marshmallows, his condition had been very stable. A week before she came here, Lu Zhe's condition had been cured.
She almost forgot what Lu Zhe looked like when he was sick.
Lu Zhe ignored the girl's gaze. He ate very quickly but not ugly. After eating, he cleaned up the dishes and went into the kitchen. Su Ci, who was standing next to him, didn't even have the chance to intervene and help.
Su Ci felt that she had returned to the time when she first met Lu Zhe.
No, at that time, Lu Zhe knew that she was transformed from a rabbit, and he was not so cold to her. But now Lu Zhe is cold and distant, and he doesn't even look at her.
In Su Ci's view, whether it is Lu Zhe in the previous life or Lu Zhe in this life, they are the same person.
She was used to being pampered by Lu Zhe, and now she was suddenly ignored, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
Su Ci held her chin with one hand, and she tried to communicate with Fugui again, but Fugui didn't react at all.
Lu Zhe washed the dishes very quickly, and when he came out, Su Ci had finished her daze.
She stood up and looked at the boy with bright eyes, "I'm going to clean up the utility room."
She didn't want to clean it up at all, okay? If he hadn't looked at her so strangely, she would have been coquettish and asked to sleep with Lu Zhe.
"Yeah." Lu Zhe went back to the room.
Su Ci pursed her lips and had to open the door of the small utility room.
There were some cardboard boxes, broken chairs, and iron racks in the utility room. There were not many discarded things, but the room had been closed for a long time, and there was a damp and moldy smell, which was very unpleasant.
Su Ci sighed and didn't think much about it. After all, Lu Zhe could sleep here before, so could she.
She moved the cardboard boxes out. The things had been there for a long time, and as soon as she touched the cardboard boxes, her hands were instantly covered with dust.
Su Ci puffed up her cheeks and continued to move.
After that, she also moved out the broken chair. In the end, there was only a two-meter-high iron frame left, which was very heavy.
Su Ci was usually a person who was spoiled. How could she have done any housework or heavy work? It was very difficult for her to move such a heavy iron frame.
Holding on to the sides of the iron frame, Su Ci moved slightly. Her fingers accidentally touched the protruding sharp points on the iron frame, and were instantly scratched and bled.
Su Ci frowned as she felt a stinging pain. She looked at her dirty and bleeding fingers and felt very depressed.
Lu Zhe was ringing a dumbbell in the room. The numbness in his arm was getting worse. Although exercise was useless for frostbite, or even futile, he was still very self-disciplined and insisted on exercising every day.
There was a knock on the door. Lu Zhe paused and stood up to open the door.
The girl stood behind the door, her beautiful eyebrows slightly frowned, tears in her eyes, and her little face was full of grievance.
Seeing him, the girl held her hand out to him, her voice aggrieved, "Lu Zhe, I'm injured, and I bleed a lot."
On the dusty little hand, one of the fingers was scratched with a red mark, and a lot of blood seeped out.
"I was injured when I was moving things just now, it hurts." It really hurts, but it's within Su Ci's tolerance range, and she deliberately said it to Lu Zhe.
"Wait a minute." Lu Zhe turned back to the room, took out a medicine box and handed it to her.
Su Ci didn't reach out to take it, she said pitifully: "I can't apply medicine to myself with one hand."
Lu Zhe was silent for a while, then walked out with the medicine box.
Su Ci sat down on the sofa. She automatically stretched out her hands in front of Lu Zhe. Both hands were dirty and covered with dust.
Lu Zhe motioned her to wash her hands first.
Su Ci blinked and said righteously, "Help me wash them. One of my hands is injured. I definitely can't wash them myself."
Seeing that the boy didn't respond, she snorted, "You even held my hand, kissed me, and did more intimate things. It's not difficult to help me wash my hands. What are you hesitating about?"
Lu Zhe looked at her with his dark eyes, "You are not talking about me."
Su Ci retorted, "You will be you in the next life."
It's just that time has changed. It's obviously the same person. She won't suddenly stop loving him just because this is the old him.
No matter how many lives it is, as long as Lu Zhe is still Lu Zhe, she will still like him.
Lu Zhe did not respond. He held the girl's wrist and pulled her into the kitchen. He put her hand under the faucet to wash it.
Su Ci pursed her lips and smiled secretly. She was still dissatisfied, "It's not clean yet, you should scrub my hands."
Lu Zhe still did not respond. He lowered his head and held the girl's hand with his cold big hand under the faucet. He eased the strength and helped her scrub.
The little hand soon became white and beautiful again.
Lu Zhe took the tissue beside him and handed it to her, letting her wipe her hands herself.
On the sofa, Su Ci stretched out her washed little hand in front of Lu Zhe again and asked him to help apply the medicine.
The girl's hands were soft when kneaded, her fingers were slender and white, and her fingertips were lightly pink. No matter how you looked at her, she was delicate and beautiful.
Lu Zhe dipped a cotton swab in disinfectant and applied it to her wound.
Su Ci wrung her hands in pain as she felt a stinging pain.
"Does it hurt?" Lu Zhe asked her.
"Such a big wound must hurt." Su Ci looked at her fingers. The skin was cut, and her fingers were no longer beautiful.
Lu Zhe took another look at the girl's wound. It was just a scratch on a small knuckle, and the wound was not deep. Lu Zhe would not care much about such a wound.
Lu Zhe suddenly realized that the girl was very coquettish.
"Okay, be careful when you wash your hands." Lu Zhe let go of Su Ci's hand, packed up his medicine box and went into the house.
Su Ci was stunned. Did he ignore her?
Then, she saw Lu Zhe coming out of the room again. He walked into the utility room, helped her move the iron shelf out, and picked up the broom to start cleaning.
Compared to Su Ci's snail-like speed, Lu Zhe quickly cleaned the utility room.
The room was ventilated, and the damp smell in the room was reduced a little, but the air in the room still smelled bad.
Su Ci stood by, her dark eyes looking at the busy boy. She asked him in a flattering manner, "Are you thirsty? I'll pour you a glass of water."
"No need."
She didn't know where Lu Zhe got the folding bed from, but Su Ci recognized it at a glance. Lu Zhe used to sleep on this folding bed, and she had slept on it before, but she was the one who pestered Lu Zhe and slept with him.
Lu Zhe's voice was cold: "You go to my room and I'll sleep here."
Su Ci was unwilling, and she was reluctant to let Lu Zhe continue to sleep in the utility room. She used her uninjured hand to hold his clothes, "Then let's sleep together."
"No." Lu Zhe refused.
Su Ci glanced at him, "It smells bad here, which is not good for your health. Move this folding bed back to your room. We can sleep in the same room, not in the same bed. What are you afraid of?"
Lu Zhe did not respond.
Su Ci did not want to give him time to think, "Are you worried that I will do something to you? But every time I sleep with you, you bully me."
Lu Zhe looked at her unnaturally. He really dared to say anything.
In the end, Lu Zhe was pushed to no end by Su Ci, so he moved the folding bed to his room. The space in his room was not large, so he could only put the folding bed side by side with his original bed.
Su Ci also walked in. She looked around the room, and a sense of familiarity came over her. The layout here had not changed.
Even Luzhe's bed was still covered with gray sheets.
"Luzhe, I want to take a shower." Su Ci sat down beside the bed. She looked up at Luzhe who was busy tidying up the folding bed. "I don't have any spare clothes, so I can only wear yours."
Next to him, Luzhe paused with his hand holding the pillow.
Su Ci was familiar with everything in this house. She came out of the shower with hot steam on her body, her little face was pink and puffy with water droplets, and her black eyes were bright and watery.
She was wearing a black shirt of Luzhe's, the hem of which was very long, directly covering her thighs.
Su Ci pushed open the door of the room and faced Lu Zhe who was sitting on the folding bed. "I'm done."
Lu Zhe's eyes accidentally met the girl's legs. They were straight and white, with a clumsy and ugly little rabbit tied to her slender ankles. Her two snowy feet were worn in ill-fitting blue slippers, which made her look even more petite and delicate.
He turned his head away and didn't look at them for long.
Su Ci walked to the bed in the slippers that were a lot longer.
"I'm going to take a shower." Lu Zhe stood up, picked up the prepared clothes, and limped out, as if he couldn't stay in the room for a moment.
The night deepened, and when Lu Zhe came back from taking a shower, he found that the girl was already lying on the bed.
It is summer now, and the weather is hot. There is no air conditioner in the room, only a swinging fan.
Su Ci felt hot, so she didn't cover herself with a quilt and just slept on her side.
Seeing Lu Zhe coming in, Su Ci's eyes lit up. Before she said anything, Lu Zhe turned off the light with a "click", and it was obvious that he had no intention of chatting with her.
The room fell into darkness.
Su Ci turned to the folding bed. With the moonlight outside the window, she saw Lu Zhe lying flat on his back with one hand on his eyes.
The boy was tall and looked very cramped sleeping on the folding bed. Su Ci moved her body towards him.
Coming to the bed, she asked him softly, "Lu Zhe, would you feel uncomfortable sleeping on the folding bed? I can switch with you."
Lu Zhe directly refused: "No need."
The room fell silent again, with only the sound of the fan running.
After a while, the girl's voice rang again, "Lu Zhe, are you asleep?"
Lu Zhe did not respond.
Su Ci continued: "Are you hot?"
Lu Zhe replied to her: "No."
Su Ci knew that Lu Zhe was not asleep, she raised her upper body, "Do you want to know what you will be like in the next life? Do you want to know about you and me?"
Lu Zhe did not say a word.
Su Ci became interested. She told him, "In the next life, you fell in love with me at first sight, and then pursued me relentlessly. You really liked me..."
Lu Zhe listened quietly to the girl's nonsense.
Su Ci told how Lu Zhe liked her, but the boy next to him didn't react at all.
Su Ci was deflated. She lay on the bed, her legs curled back, her beautiful snow-white feet slightly hooked, very tempting, "Lu Zhe, I miss you."
"If it's you in the next life, you will definitely sleep with me in your arms." Su Ci whispered, "I want to go back."
On the folded bed, Lu Zhe closed his eyes tightly, and the tip of his nose was full of pleasant fragrance. He knew that this was Su Ci's body fragrance.
He pursed his thin lips slightly, but still did not respond.
