"Grunt...what's gone?"
[Your regular medicine for mouth ulcers] 021 Since the tone module was installed, it sounds too vivid [blame it on me, I forgot to remind you to buy it again after I used it up last time]
"Why don't we just go now?" Xu Shiqing said, already walking towards the door in his slippers.
On the other side, Xie Jingyi got off the plane carrying a few bags of local specialties and handed them to the old housekeeper.
"Here's the address. Do you need a car to take you there?"
Xie Jingyi waved his hand: "No, I'll take a taxi and buy something on the way."
The old butler led the way, "Madam has an appointment that she can't postpone. She won't be back for a few days. The young master has been busy with the affairs of the team..."
"That guy coming back is such a hassle." Xie Jingyi rolled his eyes. "He's just lovesick. It's annoying to watch him."
It was no secret in the Xie family that Xie Jingxing had a sweetheart whom he had been pursuing for several years.
After getting in the car, Xie Jingyi repeated the address on the paper and then began to look at the other things in the file bag.
The Abnormal Management Bureau asked him to meet Xu Shiqing, but they didn't even give him the address.
Do they think Xie Jingyi will ask Xu Shiqing?
Of course not.
Xie Jingyi glanced at the photo in his hand. Xu Shiqing's face was facing him sternly, and he was shocked.
Although the Abnormal Management Bureau has a lot of work, little pay, and it is difficult to schedule vacations, it is not without benefits.
For example, generally good looks.
Even though Xie Jingyi was used to arguing with Xu Shiqing, he still had to admit that the other person's face was indeed impeccably good-looking.
His eyebrows and hair were jet-black, and his skin was surprisingly white. From a distance, he looked like a silhouette in an ink painting.
...Why is it Xu Shiqing?
Xie Jingyi thought with regret, without dwelling on what he was regretting.
He and this guy have too many grudges, from small ones like him beating three hundred more levels of Candy Crush than him, to big ones like disagreements on collaborative tasks. They have been disliking each other for a long time.
Xu Shiqing couldn't stand his frivolous style, and he also couldn't stand the other party's rigid adherence to procedures.
Before arriving at the community, Xie Jingyi sent a message asking if he was at home.
Xu Shiqing replied with a question mark, and then said, "Come on."
He didn't even ask him why he suddenly came to his house. Xu Shiqing obviously knew that Xie Jingyi would not come to see him if there was nothing wrong.
But this time he was wrong.
Xie Jingyi thought, there really is nothing serious going on.
The Abnormal Management Bureau's concerns weren't entirely unfounded. After fighting White Mist for over a decade, everyone knew what they needed to know. Xu Shiqing's powers were of the supernatural variety. Supernatural powers were powerful, but their only drawback was their fragile body, and their slow recovery from injuries.
While other psychics would rather stand far away and kite the monsters to death, Xu Shiqing did the opposite. He played a melee mage and was afraid that he would not die fast enough, so he took on tasks one after another.
Others spend money like water, but he gambles his life like it's a game!
Xie Jingyi pinched his brows in annoyance. What sin had he committed to be associated with such a guy? He didn't understand the ways of the world, didn't care about himself, and seemed to care about nothing.
"Ha Qiu!" Xu Shiqing covered his nose in surprise. This action affected the wound in his mouth, and he took a breath.
"Take it easy. After Xie Jingyi leaves, we'll go out and restock our medicine box." 021 said, "You only have one box of painkillers left. You can also get a can of melatonin."
The system was so upset that it flipped through its own data, thinking, please, someone please take care of this dead child. He has no entity and can't even use force. He feels helpless as he can only threaten him verbally every day!
After cleaning up the living room, Xu Shiqing lay on the tatami for a while before the doorbell rang.
"Hey, Xu Xiaoxian, your house is quite ordinary!" Xie Jingyi was carrying a bag of fruits, with one hand resting on the door frame, revealing his strong forearm.
[…How did he so accurately buy the fruit you hate the most?] 021 scanned the fruit in the bag [And you are allergic to apples]
Good question, I'd like to know that too.
But isn't it even stranger that this body is allergic to apples? Who, you and the world, created this setting?
"Come in." Xu Shiqing said as he stepped aside to let the person in.
Xie Jingyi changed into slippers at the entrance. As soon as he lowered his head, a pair of white and beautiful feet passed by his sight. The lines were graceful, and a layer of pink could be seen through the joints of the ankles, which made his heart flutter for no reason.
He paused to change his shoes, then continued as if nothing had happened.
The house was spacious and unadorned, its style exuding minimalist simplicity. The living room faced a floor-to-ceiling window that took up an entire wall. Navy blue curtains formed a balcony, where cacti were planted crammed together.
Xie Jingyi couldn't help but take a few glances to make sure that the large balcony was planted with cacti, not other flowers.
He even saw a cactus that was about to die from waterlogging!
Xie Jingyi couldn't believe it: No, you can kill a cactus?
"What's wrong?" Xu Shiqing took two glasses of cold water from the water dispenser and looked in the direction Xie Jingyi was looking. He could only see the cactus that seemed a little wilted for some reason recently.
Obviously nothing happened in the previous month or two.
"...Are you sleeping well now?" As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Jingyi wanted to slap himself.
Why are you bringing up something that shouldn't be brought up?!
Xu Shiqing's lips froze and he glared at her: "What do you think?"
But there's no point dwelling on this long-overdue mess.
So he asked again, "What happened?"
"Nothing." Xie Jingyi coughed lightly. "I'm on vacation now. We live in the same city, so I came to see you."
"..." Xu Shiqing had a blank expression on his face. Do you believe this reason?
