Entering the rented room,
Lu Qingzhou carried Momo and headed towards the bedroom.
Mu Shaohua hurriedly followed and helped him uncover the blanket on the bed!
After putting Momo on the bed, cover her with a thin blanket!
The two then left the bedroom and closed the door.
Back in the living room,
Mu Shaohua then began to examine Lu Qingzhou's small apartment.
The floor was spotless, and the house was sparsely furnished.
Besides a two-seater sofa, a water dispenser, and a wooden coffee table!
That's it!
Seeing Mu Shaohua looking around the living room,
Lu Qingzhou scratched his neck somewhat awkwardly.
"This house is too small, I'm sorry to have troubled you, Sister Shaohua,"
Mu Shaohua turned to look at him and replied naturally, "I think it's pretty good. The room is indeed a bit small, but it's very clean! For a man to keep his home this tidy is already quite impressive. I've seen men's rooms online that look sloppy and messy!"
"I live alone and haven't bought much furniture. Let me get you a glass of water!"
"OK, thanks!"
There's not much to see in the entire rental apartment at a glance!
Mu Shaohua then sat down on the sofa!
He took the water Lu Qingzhou handed him and drank a sip!
Mu Shaohua suddenly remembered the aunt she had met downstairs earlier.
Curious, he asked.
"Xiao Lu, you have a really good relationship with your neighbors! People greet you wherever you go!"
When this matter was brought up, Lu Qingzhou didn't know where to begin.
"There's a saying circulating among the young people living in this neighborhood!"
This piqued Mu Shaohua's curiosity. She opened her beautiful eyes and looked at Lu Qingzhou, asking, "What did you say?"
"Beware of fire, theft, and the elderly! Cherish life, stay away from the elderly!"
"What's the meaning?"
Lu Qingzhou sat on the coffee table and said helplessly.
"The elderly people in our neighborhood are really good at gossiping. Once, I coughed once in the neighborhood, and guess what they said after it reached their ears?"
"What did you say?"
"They actually said I have late-stage lung cancer! That really angered me!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Shaohua clenched her fist lightly.
"These elderly people have really gone too far,"
"To put it simply, every living thing in the neighborhood has to go around them! There used to be a little dog in the neighborhood that died of depression because it didn't lower its head when it passed by them!"
Pfft!
"Is this for real? The more I listen, the weirder it sounds!"
Mu Shaohua covered her mouth and chuckled softly!
Lu Qingzhou smiled slightly, "There's a mix of truth and falsehood, isn't there?"
The two chatted for a while, and the atmosphere was fairly relaxed.
Mu Shaohua got up and went to the restroom!
Lu Qingzhou took out his phone and glanced at it casually!
"Waaaaah...!"
Hearing Momo's crying,
Lu Qingzhou hurriedly got up, pushed open the door, and went into the bedroom!
Momo, still half asleep, raised her head and looked at Lu Qingzhou.
Lu Qingzhou stepped forward and gently hugged her, comforting her a little.
......
Mu Shaohua stood in the bathroom,
He examined the piece of clothing in the plastic basin.
Lu Qingzhou hadn't had time to wash it before throwing it in!
Upon seeing this, Mu Shaohua's eyes lit up.
He whispered, "Sitting here is boring, why don't I help him wash his clothes!"
Mu Shaohua looked around but couldn't find the laundry detergent!
Open the bathroom door,
He stuck his head out and glanced into the living room.
Lu Qingzhou was not seen.
Mu Shaohua called out in confusion!
"Xiao Lu?"
Lu Qingzhou responded softly upon hearing this.
"I'm in the bedroom, Momo just woke up!"
Mu Shaohua entered the bedroom and saw Lu Qingzhou half-lying on the bed!
Coaxing Momo to sleep!
He smiled slightly and asked,
Where did you put your laundry detergent?
Lu Qingzhou's attention was focused on Momo at this moment.
Upon hearing Mu Shaohua's question, he subconsciously replied, "It's in the cabinet under the sink."
"Oh well!"
Mu Shaohua responded and left the bedroom.
Seeing Mu Shaohua turn and leave,
Lu Qingzhou then casually asked, "What do you need laundry detergent for?"
Mu Shaohua turned around and smiled gently.
"do the laundry!"
"Oh, um...?...What clothes are you washing...!"
Mu Shaohua had already reached the bathroom. Without turning her head, she said, "The clothes you put in the basin!"
ah....!
Lu Qingzhou immediately snapped out of her daze! Her heart skipped a beat!
Holy shit!
There was more than one piece of clothing in his basin!
He gently placed Momo on the bed!
He put on his shoes, not caring about waking Momo.
He dashed off to the bathroom!
......
Their eyes met, and an indescribable tension filled the air!
Lu Qingzhou's gaze fell on the shorts Mu Shaohua was holding, while Mu Shaohua squatted on the ground, her eyes fixed on Lu Qingzhou.
In that instant, the two seemed to be frozen in place.
Motionless!
Lu Qingzhou was feeling incredibly awkward, almost to the point of embarrassment.
The most embarrassed person was Mu Shaohua.
Her cheeks were burning hot, and her heart was pounding like a war drum.
How embarrassing!
How embarrassing!
What do we do now?!
Mu Shaohua was extremely nervous; the scene before her was truly embarrassing!
She had assumed that Lu Qingzhou only had one T-shirt in the basin.
But unexpectedly,
There was a pair of shorts hidden under that T-shirt.
