Chapter 17 A Family of Three
The rose was still in front of him, and Chi Liu put the blanket aside and stood up.
The tip of his nose was red and his face looked pale for some reason.
Chi Liu covered her nose with her bony and pale wrist, and smiled at the man: "I refuse."
It's not surprising at all that the person I had a one-night stand with nearly a month ago suddenly showed up and proposed to me.
Chi Liubian complained mercilessly in his heart as he quickly brushed past the man and walked towards the bathroom.
In front of the sink, Chi Liu finished dry heaving and washed his face as usual.
He breathed softly, and after wiping away the water marks with a handkerchief, his face was still abnormally flushed. He frowned slightly and looked at his waist and abdomen.
The weather was a bit hot today, so he wore a casual white T-shirt and loose jeans.
All his current clothes were bought within a month, but now, he inexplicably felt that this pair of jeans didn't fit him well...
Was it his imagination? His waistline seemed to be getting a little tighter...
Could it be that I haven’t exercised enough since coming to the new world?
And also - Chi Liu lowered his eyes and placed his hand on his abdomen: It is indeed time to get a physical check-up again, the frequency of dry heaving has increased recently.
After making up his mind, Chi Liu tidied his appearance and walked into the store while thinking about how to drive away his one-night stand appropriately and efficiently.
As soon as he reached the terrace, Chi Liu breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with satisfaction: the one-night stand partner who had proposed to him frivolously right from the start had left!
That's really cause for celebration.
Secretary Wen, who had just sent the boss away, was standing next to Xiang Xiang, looking at Chi Liu with a subtle expression.
Xiang Xiang was a little confused and at a loss. Saito, who had just stopped his nosebleed, didn't know what he touched, and toilet paper was stuffed in his nose again. He was squatting in the corner, drawing circles, with a look of doubt on his face.
Chi Liu smiled at his friend: "You are here."
Secretary Wen pushed his glasses calmly: "…Ah." He got down to business first: "I have made an appointment with a doctor for you. She will be back from a business trip this Friday and will be working here. She can help you check it out." After a pause, he added: "The privacy there is very good. No matter what you find out, you can trust that doctor."
Then he handed over a business card: "Just go to the address on the business card to find her."
Even if the examination results show that the boss is right and Xiaochi, as a male NPC, is really pregnant, that place and that person can at least guarantee Xiaochi's subsequent medical arrangements.
Chi Liu took it and looked at it: It seems to be a private hospital.
He put the business card away and said thank you.
Secretary Wen then put on a gossipy and teasing smile: "How do you feel about the grand proposal ceremony just now?"
Chi Liu: "..."
The corners of his mouth twitched, and the veins on his forehead throbbed faintly: "...It's terrible."
Secretary Wen was dressed neatly and couldn't help laughing: Haha, he knew it!
Recalling how the boss, after being humiliated, crushed 999 roses and a big diamond ring into powder with a snap of his fingers and threw them into the trash can, Secretary Wen silently complained in his heart: I told you that things like proposing can't be forced, but the boss just wouldn't listen!
He looked at Saito who was shutting himself in the corner with a gloating look: The boss is taking his anger out on me! That nosebleed will last at least two whole days!
Tsk, that’s so cruel!
Secretary Wen said goodbye to Chi Liu happily and left with the boxes.
Chi Liu couldn't help but twitching his lips when he saw his friend's back, who was so happy that he wanted to fly. He looked at Saito again: "What happened to your nose? Is it okay?"
Saito's purple curly hair was almost pulled into a lion's hair, and his voice was so muffled: "Ah, the weather is getting hot, so it's normal to have a nosebleed-"
How normal!
It’s not because his nose is so troubled!
As he said that, he stood up, strode to Chi Liu and bowed vigorously: "Boss, you are a good person! Take care of yourself! You, you must be careful when interacting with that super scary, uh, person just now. Sorry, this is all I can remind you!"
After saying that, he ran away covering his nose, and even his figure was filled with huge guilt!
Chi Liu: "???"
Who on earth did his employees think he was seeing!
…
In contrast to that bizarre and chaotic episode, Chi Liu walked back to the community, passing by the scenic paths and the lively crowds in the evening. He felt particularly peaceful when he walked into the elevator.
Look how vibrant early summer is and how normal everyone is.
Then, he was almost knocked down by the loud noise as he stepped out of the elevator.
Chi Liu stood in the corridor, frowning and looking at the metal door of the neighbor's house: the loud noise came from there...
What happened? Is his neighbor okay?
The sound of "bang bang bang" still echoed in my ears, as if someone's body was thrown around in the room and struggling hard...
Chi Liu's expression froze, and he strode to the metal door. Instead of ringing the doorbell, he knocked on the door hard: "Are you okay? Do you need help?"
…
In the dim room, Chu Qi's body suddenly stiffened.
At this moment, all kinds of furniture in the living room were overturned in a mess, a bottomless black hole appeared on the ceiling, and countless dark blue tentacles were surging angrily and madly in the hole.
Body parts mixed with internal organs poured out from the gaps and scattered everywhere.
Chu Qi only half retained his human form. He opened his eyes wide and looked towards the door. A tentacle was still devouring his half-dead body.
Chi Liu's anxious voice still rang out from the other side of the door: "Hey, if you're here, please respond to me!"
"Crunch, crunch"
That half of the body was completely devoured, Chu Qi tilted his head in a daze: Xiao Chi's voice was very anxious...
He is, worried about him...
Excitement and joy quickly swept through his body. A strange smile appeared on Chu Qi's face. Scarlet completely filled his eye sockets. The deep blue tentacles surged even more frantically. The room was full of their busy afterimages!
A moment later, the black hole on the ceiling disappeared. Chu Qi put on a bear mask, took out a spotless writing board from the safe, and stood in front of the door excitedly.
…
Chi Liu frowned tightly and was about to knock on the door for the third time when the metal door finally opened from the inside.
Chi Liu finally breathed a sigh of relief when the neighbor wearing the bear mask appeared in front of him safely. He laughed and said, "Why were you making such a scary sound just now? Are you okay?"
Chu Qi wrote quickly, lighting up the yellow-flowered writing board: [Cleaning the passage.]
Another cheating rat had contaminated the passage, and this was the first time he had volunteered to work overtime to clean it up.
The eyes behind the little bear's mask looked gently at the young man with curved eyes - he would never allow any more mice to come into this world.
Chi Liu had already turned sideways and was stunned to see the space behind the door: the living room was covered with blue splatter-like marks, what kind of paint was that?
Every piece of furniture was scattered all over the floor, even the tiles were broken into pieces. There was absolutely no space to step in the house!
Wow, he can clean a fume duct or some other passage like this, his neighbor is really talented...
Retracting his gaze, Chi Liu folded his arms and raised his eyebrows to look at the man: "Your place can't be inhabited for the time being, right?"
It seems that even if it is repaired, it will take ten days or half a month.
Chu Qi: “?” If he answered that he could return to the original state in a moment, would it scare the young man…
He was just thinking anxiously about how to answer this question when he saw the young man opposite him smiling at him. His curved amber eyes were gentler than the moon in the vacation world.
Chi Liu pointed to his own door and said, "If you don't mind, um... would you like to stay at my house for the time being?"
Chu Qi: “!!!” I just failed to propose, and now I can encounter such a good thing? !
He was invited by Xiaochi to enter that space!
The heart of another world was filled with blood and was about to explode. Chu Qi quickly wrote a word on the writing board: [OK]
Chi Liu's smile widened, and he shrugged: "Then let's go."
…
In the warm home, Chi Liu quickly prepared a delicious home-cooked dinner. Wearing a cute apron with a duck pattern, he leaned against the kitchen door with his arms folded, looking at the man sitting stiffly on the sofa with some distress - was his neighbor too shy?
Chi Liu simply walked over, sat down next to the man, raised his eyebrows and looked at him and said, "There's no need to be so nervous, right? Haven't you ever stayed at a friend's house?"
Having experienced life and death, they can be considered friends.
Chu Qi's body suddenly stiffened. He wrote quickly and then showed it to Chi Liu.
The neighbor has a nice cold fragrance, which is familiar for some reason and makes people feel good. Chi Liu smiled and looked at the writing board and read the two words: "No."
It seems that the neighbor is not very popular.
He chuckled helplessly and shook his head: "Okay. But I still hope you can relax here." After that, he stood up: "Let's eat first. My taste has been a bit light recently, I hope you can get used to it."
The funny little bear head nodded slightly.
Chi Liu had already walked towards the dining table. Before Chu Qi stood up and followed him, his eyes swept across the glass jar on the shelf: there was a white finger bone and a number ball.
He looked away, and the look under the bear mask became softer: He still kept it... didn't throw it away...
Then, as if remembering something, his gaze fixed on the young man's right ankle, and his expression turned cold again.
…
At the dining table, Chi Liu picked up some celery and lilies with chopsticks, looked at the man opposite her who was still wearing the bear mask with only the lower half of his face exposed, and twitched his lips.
Not taking off the mask even when eating is really... weird... and won’t it be uncomfortable to eat?
The lower half of my neighbor's face was pale, with sharp features and sexy thin lips. But somehow he looked familiar.
This face should be very handsome, but I don’t know why it can’t be shown.
Chi Liu respects other people's privacy, let alone his friends.
So he just casually asked, "I haven't asked yet, what should I call you?"
After asking, he realized that his neighbor was not in a position to talk. When he was about to say something else, the man had already put down his chopsticks. He thought for a moment, picked up the writing board beside him and wrote: [A Yuan].
Chi Liu looked at the name and read it out: "A Yuan?"
Chu Qi nodded.
Someone seemed to have called him that a long time ago.
Chi Liu smiled again: "Okay, A Yuan, let's continue eating."
When his name was called, Chu Qi felt his blood boiling. The eye sockets under the hood were completely filled with scarlet blood, but the human form still lowered its head and ate the delicious meal elegantly.
A dark blue tentacle quietly stretched out from the trouser leg, wandering around Chi Liu's white calf, greedily nibbling on all the smells...
…
Night fell quickly after dinner.
Chi Liu arranged his neighbor to stay in the second bedroom, then went into his own bedroom and quickly fell asleep - he was now even sleepier than before.
The sky outside the window is full of stars, the night is quiet and safe, and the warm night breeze blows the snow-white curtains.
A handsome young man was sleeping on his side on the soft bed, his hand gently caressing his abdomen.
A dark shadow suddenly fell on the young man's body, and a pale, slender hand covered the back of his hand.
The man who took off the bear mask sat on the bedside, holding the young man from behind possessively. His dark blue tentacles lifted the quilt and wrapped around the young man's bruised ankles. He had repaired the young man's broken bones last night, so he could only repair the skin today. The NPC's body couldn't stand repairing all these injuries at once...
The tentacles gently sucked the delicate skin, biting away the glaring bruises bit by bit...
Chu Qi's eyes were cold: That mouse really died too easily...
After a while, he stroked the back of the young man's hand covering his abdomen and said, "I said, you can't expose yourself again before you really take shape."
Now the little guy sleeps most of the day and does not have enough strength to protect himself and his mother.
The unhappy kid who was woken up: "...I'm awesome!"
Chu Qi: "You are just an embryo, you are very weak, and you can't even speak." He can't make any sound, he just transmits his consciousness directly into other people's minds. Children's toys and methods.
Chu Qi: "Be good, then he will like you."
Child: "I'm so good! I'm so awesome! QAQ bad guy, it's obviously you that mommy hates!"
Chu Qi: “….”
…
The night is even quieter.
The tall and handsome man sat on the bed and closed his eyes. The dark blue tentacles carefully climbed along the young man's waist, finally wrapped around the young man's white and thin wrist bones, and pressed a part of itself against the young man's warm and soft abdomen.
The young man breathed steadily.
The man seemed to be guarding the most precious treasure in the world.
