Chapter 97
The winter vacation in the primitive city is already half over. The Spring Festival is coming soon.
Almost all shops are conducting year-end clearance sales, and many even put up signs saying "Limited time discount, sell out and go home for the New Year."
No one will come to purchase goods during this period. But there is only one exception.
Opposite Huada University, the Otherworldly Puppet Shop, which had been closed for nearly two months, unexpectedly opened for business on such a day.
Although the rolling door was just opened, the several handsome guys with different styles who came out of the door, as well as the exquisite and moving puppets in the store, also attracted many customers to stop.
"Is the puppet business so good?" At the door, Pei Zhao asked vaguely, holding a lollipop in his mouth.
"It may involve giving gifts to family and friends at the end of the year. Our puppets are beautiful and exquisitely crafted, and the price is reasonable. They are very suitable for gifts." Zhou Yuli gently gathered Pei Zhao's scarf, blocking the wind, and explained seriously.
"You're really smart, classmate Xiao Zhou." Pei Zhao chuckled.
There were too many people in the store, and Bai Zhou and Lan Ji were there to entertain them, so there was no need for them to get involved.
Sudi landed on the ground, said "see you later" and ran away to somewhere unknown.
Miu Yi ran to the second floor and took a nap in his coffin.
Pei Zhao thought that they would have to stay here for a while after all, and they hadn't been back for a long time, so they should have a good meal - hotpot.
So he took the initiative to go to the supermarket to buy things with Zhou Yuli.
Bought a bunch of vegetables and meat, as well as many snacks. In addition, Zhou Yuli also took several boxes of family planning products.
In the supermarket, Pei Zhao blushed and asked Zhou Yuli to put these things back.
"We are here to carry out a mission, we don't have the time to think about..." Pei Zhao had half of his face hidden in the scarf.
As the year draws to a close, the people who come to the supermarket are all middle-aged and elderly people. Pei Zhao always feels that their eyes are full of inquiry.
Zhou Yuli, however, had a serious expression on his face, as if what they bought were not such private items, but just ordinary daily necessities like toothbrushes and toothpaste.
"In case you want it, you will be uncomfortable without it and might get hurt."
Pei Zhao covered his face.
They have indeed had such situations. For example, when Pei Zhao felt uneasy or sad, he would always pester Zhou Yuli and say that he wanted it, regardless of whether Zhou Yuli was ready or not. If Zhou Yuli refused, he would either cry or curse.
...After all the fuss, Zhou Yuli had no choice but to do as he wished.
The result is that I often feel uncomfortable.
"Oh..." Pei Zhao had nothing to say, so he could only agree silently. He felt his whole body getting hot, and added softly, "Then bring some for Lan Ji and the others..."
Unexpectedly, Zhou Yuli looked up at him, then suddenly put the things he had been picking for a long time back to their original places and walked towards Pei Zhao.
"What's wrong... huh?" Pei Zhao was stunned.
Zhou Yuli freed his red face from the scarf, and Pei Zhao's red face and red ears were exposed to the air.
Pei Zhao felt that he was more popular than the New Year lanterns hanging in the supermarket!
"Don't be bored."
After making sure Pei Zhao was no longer bored, Zhou Yuli put down his hand, walked back, and carefully picked out the small boxes again.
And now.
The small boxes were placed in the pockets on both sides of Zhou Yuli's coat.
In the right pocket are the gifts for Bai Zhou and Lan Ji.
In the left pocket were his and Zhou Yuli's belongings.
Pei Zhao couldn't help but glance at his left pocket. He couldn't help thinking, according to the plan, the execution will start tomorrow. There is still a lot of time today. After dinner, there is still a lot of time to rest...
·
Most of the customers in the store left after a while.
Pei Zhao finally got time to return to the store.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard Bai Zhou "complaining" in a happy voice: "Ah, why do we have so many customers just after I came back? Although I opened a large order... Those people said they were giving away New Year's goods, why are they willing to spend so much money?"
Pei Zhao laughed and explained, "It's the New Year of this world, also called the Spring Festival. It's the biggest festival of the year. In addition to giving each other gifts, people also give each other red envelopes."
"The Spring Festival... sounds interesting." Lan Ji said, "Are we going to celebrate the Spring Festival together this year?"
"If it's possible, that would be the best, but if it's really hard to achieve, we can still have meals together and give each other gifts in another world." Pei Zhao smiled.
To him, they were the same as family. Even though I’ve only known them for half a year, I have a feeling that I want to spend the rest of my life with these people.
"Then let's consider today as a warm-up meal for the New Year!" Bai Zhou clapped his hands excitedly, "Did you buy enough? Do you want us to go again?"
"Don't worry, the snacks, vegetables and fruits are enough for us to eat for a week." Pei Zhao made some distance, and Zhou Yuli behind him walked upstairs carrying large and small bags.
"By the way, Bai Zhou, go and help him." Pei Zhao blinked.
Bai Zhou didn't understand, those things seemed very easy for Zhou Yuli. But he went anyway.
The two grown men went up to the second floor one after the other.
Lan Ji poured Pei Zhao a glass of water and then went to clean up the store.
"I didn't expect the business in this store to be so good." Pei Zhao smiled.
"Yes, Bai Shuo, today's turnover is more than the previous month." Pei Zhao smiled with narrowed eyes, his voice gentle.
"So many?" Pei Zhao was surprised.
Because every month, Bai Zhou would keep a portion for living expenses and store turnover costs, and the rest would be transferred to a card under Pei Zhao's name, so Pei Zhao knew how huge the sum was.
As a result, in just such a short while, I made so much money?
Pei Zhao blinked: "This is too easy to make money."
Lan Ji also laughed. Bai Zhou was much more savvy with money than when he was a monarch. The amount he left behind each month was not much, but it was just enough for the two of them to live comfortably.
Lan Ji was a person who had little concept of money, but he only knew that their family's life was getting better and better under Bai Zhou's care.
Pei Zhao thought for a moment and said, "Then Lan, have you ever considered moving out?"
Seeing Lan Ji stunned, Pei Zhao explained, "I don't have any other intentions. It seems meaningless to make so much money and just turn it into a string of numbers. Since you also have to live in this world, you might as well use this money to live more comfortably."
Lan Ji showed an understanding expression, but rejected Pei Zhao: "No need."
"Why?"
"I still hope that we can live together." Lan Ji lowered his eyes, his expression very gentle, "Like a real family, loving each other and living together."
…I’m going to save money to buy a big villa.
Pei Zhao thought secretly. The number on the card is indeed quite a bit off.
"Is this also what Bai Zhou meant?" Pei Zhao still asked.
"Yeah. We all really enjoy living together."
Pei Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, as long as you feel comfortable."
He also prefers group life, especially with people he likes, eating together, chatting together, and having a family feeling.
The reason he asked was because he was afraid that Bai Zhou and Lan Ji thought differently from them. Out of politeness and respect, he always had to take everyone's feelings into consideration. Fortunately, it turned out that everyone had the same idea.
·
Night falls.
In the evening, several waves of customers came to the store and placed several large orders, which made Bai Zhou a good profit. He then suggested adding a few bottles of low-concentration fruit wine to the evening hot pot party.
Pei Zhao looked at Bai Zhou with a complicated expression. Bai Zhou was holding a bottle of fruit wine with an alcohol content of less than 5%, his cheeks flushed, and he had already started talking nonsense.
"I just... we are so strong!" Bai Zhou said with a big tongue, "You are completely different from the people I knew before! I like to live with you..."
Pei Zhao wanted to laugh but felt helpless. Miu Yi, who was standing by, didn't even dare to say a word as he watched this crazy scene.
Except for Miu Yi, they all drank. But Pei Zhao and Zhou Yuli had more or less experience in drinking and would never be drunk by the 5-degree fruit wine. Only Bai Zhou and Lan Ji showed symptoms of drunkenness after two glasses of wine.
Lan Ji kept silent while Bai Zhou talked nonsense.
The people who ate the meal were in a state of confusion. In the end, it was Pei Zhao and Zhou Yuli who cleaned up the mess.
It is absurd to hide in the coffin early, saying that you should practice diligently.
Pei Zhao and Zhou Yuli dragged the two men back to the room, sweating all over.
There is heating in the room, and people's faces are getting hot from the steam.
"I want to take a shower." "I'll take a shower first..."
Two voices rang out at the same time, and Pei Zhao pulled at his collar: "Then you should wash first. You just spilled some wine, and you must be feeling uncomfortable."
"Do you want to take a shower together?" Zhou Yuli asked in a low and seductive voice.
"Huh?" Pei Zhao even suspected that he had heard it wrong, and looked at Zhou Yuli with wide eyes.
Zhou Yuli was like a puppy drenched by the rain, with wine spilled on his chest, exposing his collarbone, which reflected in the light.
…looks delicious.
"Let's take a bath... together?" Pei Zhao heard his voice was extremely hoarse.
"Hmm..." Zhou Yuli lowered his head and tapped his solar plexus with one hand.
Perhaps because puppets generally have low alcohol tolerance, Pei Zhao always felt that Zhou Yuli should be drunk as well.
Otherwise, why would she be so proactive and invite him to take a shower?
"Well... take a shower." Zhou Yuli's voice was full of temptation, "I'll come and serve you well."
Zhou Yuli never exaggerates, even when he is drunk.
So when Pei Zhao was picked up and sat astride the sink, his legs were stuck on the raised platforms on both sides.
My back felt a little cold, but even colder was my exposed lower body.
"Zhou..." Pei Zhao only had time to utter one syllable before Zhou Yuli lowered his head in front of him.
!
Pei Zhao immediately realized what was happening, but it was too late.
A warm mouth is more moist than dry warm air.
Wrapped and shuttling.
Pei Zhao grabbed Zhou Yuli's shoulders impatiently, leaving marks on the back of his neck.
"No, no..." Pei Zhao shouted almost unconsciously.
However, he surrendered, and Zhou Yuli just held him up and lifted him up, then buried his head deeper.
Pei Zhao felt like he was going to die.
He was about to be drowned in Zhou Yuli's attack.
It turns out that this is what Zhou Yuli was like under the influence of alcohol.
