Chapter 19 (Minor Repair)
【Mom! Mom! Mom! ~】
Chi Liu blushed as she looked at the man resting his head on her knees: the bear hood was rubbed open due to the movement, revealing half of his clearly defined jaw.
It turns out that my neighbor can talk! And his voice is strangely familiar!
Now, if he took it away, he could see the man's face...
The man seemed to have fallen asleep and no longer uttered any incomprehensible nonsense, but his strong arms were still tightly around his waist.
After a long while, Chi Liu let out a rare sigh. He did not take off his hood, but just brushed off the man's hand, gently moved his head off his knees, and casually picked up a pillow to cushion the man's neck.
He will not pry into his friends' privacy.
Chi Liu stood up, twitched his lips and glanced at the man lying straight on the sofa: If this is what my neighbor looks like when he's drunk, he's a pretty good drinker?
Then he walked towards the kitchen - as expected, if he wanted to eat his fill, he had to rely on himself!
For dinner, I cooked beef brisket with tomatoes, stewed eggs, and fried two home-cooked dishes. Chi Liu also squeezed an extra glass of fresh strawberry juice.
Since he started dry heaving, his appetite decreased a lot and he even began to show some symptoms of anemia, so he tried to prepare every meal as richly as possible in the hope of eating more.
After quickly eating half of it, Chi Liu sealed his neighbor's half with plastic wrap, put it in the refrigerator, and then went into the room to wash up and go to bed.
…
As the night deepened, Chi Liu's breathing gradually became slower.
In the quiet living room, the man on the sofa suddenly half sat up, took off his hood, and looked towards the master bedroom.
There was still a hint of drunkenness on his handsome face - he loved fine wine, but was not good at dealing with alcohol with too high a concentration.
The drunk Chu Qi stood up, walked silently towards the bedroom, and officially started to act crazy while drunk.
The omnipresent vortex of shadow surged with the man's footsteps and was completely crushed by the man.
Under the moonlight, countless dark blue tentacles surged onto the young man's body, forming the shape of a cage, almost swallowing up the sleeping young man.
Only the handsome head retained its human form. At this moment, a tentacle gently lifted Chi Liu's hand that was on his abdomen, and the head took the opportunity to roll into the young man's arms.
Chi Liu's hands dropped unconsciously - he seemed to be holding the head in his arms.
The dark blue tentacles madly wrapped around the young man's body and surged wildly. Chu Qi closed his eyes, his face full of half-drunk and half-awake obsession.
He whispered sadly and intimately, "Dear."
"Let's get married. I promise, we'll be the happiest family..."
"Little guy," the tentacles wrapped around the young man's thin waist slowly surged, and the tip was accurately placed where the embryo was. It gently stroked the white and soft skin there. Chu Qi muttered drunkenly: "Are you right?"
The unhappy child who was abruptly woken up said: "Without dad, mom and I are still a happy family!"
Chu Qi: “….”
As the tentacles surged, Chi Liu's brows slowly furrowed. His face flushed abnormally, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, and his eyelids finally slowly opened——
The tentacles in the room were completely frozen like wooden men, as if the pause button had been pressed!
In the young man's arms, Chu Qi didn't even dare to blink, his drunken eyes met the other's blurred and moist gaze.
Chi Liu, whose brain was still immersed in sleep, said: "......?"
What a weird dream!
He seemed to have just dreamed that his neighbor had not finished the Long Island Iced Tea and was cooking skillfully in the kitchen. He was sitting at the dining table, and a cute children's writing board decorated with yellow flowers floated in front of him and rubbed against him affectionately. On it was written the cute words: [Mom! ]
Chi Liu corrected with a smile: "Call me dad."
Writing board: [Mom! Mom! Mom! ~]
Chi Liu: "..."
Haha, this is not a strange dream at all!
Later, just as his neighbor was about to bring out the prepared dish, he fell into this perverted nightmare consisting of countless weird tentacles and a human head...
Compared to this kind of dream, even the clipboard that calls him mom is cute!
It was just a dream anyway, Chi Liu was not afraid at all.
He turned the annoying face in his arms to the other side, out of sight, out of mind, then hugged the head like a pillow and fell into sleep again.
The young man's hand just covered the soft lips of the head. Chu Qi's pupils were filled with red light of excitement. He carefully extended his tongue and licked the young man's soft palm.
The tentacles in the room were dancing wildly like crazy, leaving dark blue afterimages everywhere.
Chu Qi felt that he was happy again.
He closed his eyes and carefully peeked into the young man's dream...
Ah, so my dear wants to eat the food he cooks so much...
…
So, the next evening, when Chi Liu returned home, he found a blown-up kitchen.
And the tall man standing in the kitchen, looking disheveled.
The floor was littered with messy raw fish entrails and fish scales, and a plate of almost shapeless braised fish was quietly on the kitchen counter, emitting a burnt smell.
Chi Liu: "..."
Chu Qi held up a writing board, like a prisoner taking a photo: [Sorry]
This damn fish is so damn hard to cook!
After a while, Chi Liu burst out laughing: His neighbor is really a talented person!
He was about to continue speaking, but his pupils shrank when his eyes swept over the man's hand: the pale fingers and the back of the hand were covered with tiny scars, and the largest cut was still oozing bright red blood...
After a while, Chi Liu let out a soft, helpless smile: "Why do you have to cook for me?" After a pause, he simply crossed his arms and leaned against the door frame, raised his eyebrows and said: "You can talk, right? Just say it directly."
Chu Qi paused as he was erasing the original handwriting. He looked through the hood at the young man with gentle features, his magnetic voice still sounded distorted: "I hope you're happy."
In that noisy and strange dream, Chi Liu was very happy.
Chi Liu was startled, lowered his eyes, smiled and sighed. He walked forward, took the man's wrist and walked out, complaining: "Even if you are cooking, you have to explain the method. You can ask the boss to help clean the fish--" He had already pulled the man to the sofa: "As for cooking, you don't have to make the difficult braised fish at the beginning."
Chu Qi tilted his head slightly, watching with curiosity as the young man treated his wounds, which he could heal with just a snap of his fingers.
Then, he stated the fact honestly: “It’s really hard to do.”
He clearly followed the recipe step by step, but not a single part of the fish obeyed.
The fish is too stupid and has too small a brain. If you release mental pollution towards it, it will just turn into a horrible mutant fish that NPCs cannot eat.
Chi Liu: “Pfft.”
He quickly treated the wounds with iodine and put on a few band-aids: "It's done."
Chu Qi looked excitedly at the Band-Aid on the back of her hand, which was still stained with the warmth of the young man's fingers.
Chi Liu didn't care. He got up and went to the kitchen to get the fish, and said with a smile, "Go wash your hands. It's time for a feast!"
…
Dinner was still very sumptuous because Chi Liu ordered takeout and added the braised fish.
Even though there was a strange burnt smell, Chi Liu still squinted his eyes, picked up a piece of fish, put it in his mouth and slowly tasted it.
Wow, Yuan is such a genius to be able to make this kind of flavor!
Chi Liu clenched his fingers, then swallowed it with a smile.
As a lawless evil god, Chu Qi felt nervous for the first time: "Is it delicious?"
Chi Liu couldn't help but pick up the second chopstick, and said with a hint of joking: "Hmm... very special, one-of-a-kind."
A developing child who has just learned to share a tiny sense of smell with his mother: "Pooh! Pooh! Pooh! This tastes so bad! Mommy, am I going to die? QAQ"
Chu Qi: “….”
He had no idea about the NPC's sense of taste. The little guy could taste whether something was "delicious" or "unpalatable" because he was half human.
Turns out that tastes terrible.
But why is Xiaochi still eating so happily...
A strange and crazy throbbing spread along his spine, and Chu Qi was almost unable to control the body under his skin... The cuffs hanging below his body surged wildly, and were about to entangle with the shadow...
He wanted to -
Chi Liu was unaware of this. He swallowed a mouthful of fish, raised his head and curved his eyes and said, "Well, tomorrow..." Do you want to come and see my store's trial opening?
Before he finished speaking, Chu Qi's distorted voice rang out affectionately in this space: "Will you marry me?"
Chi Liu: "..."
“Cough cough cough!”
He picked up the strawberry juice on the side and drank two full glasses before he suppressed his cough!
Chi Liu was panting, and the sound of his rapid heartbeat vibrated his eardrums. His thin face was so red that it seemed to be bleeding, and even his earlobes were red.
Chi Liu stared at the opposite side in astonishment - no, has he been involved in some romantic misfortune recently?
Why do so many people come to him to propose marriage?
Chu Qi put down the bear mask, looked gently through the eye holes at the young man opposite him whose face was rosy and eyes were bright, and repeated: "Will you marry me?" The voice was incredibly gentle.
"Bang, bang!"
Chi Liu listened in a daze as his heart beat a beat or two faster - that was normal.
After all, no one would be completely indifferent to a marriage proposal! - Even though he hadn't even seen the face of the person he was proposing to!
"Uh," Chi Liu stood up with his hands on the table: "I, I'm full, enjoy your meal!"
After saying that, he turned around and strode back to the room.
Chu Qi looked at his back quietly and gently. The door closed with a bang. He took off his hood and tilted his head in confusion - he was rejected again, so why wasn't he sad now?
…
In the dim and quiet room, Chi Liu stood against the door with his arms folded, his cheeks burning. After a while, he pinched his brows with a headache and walked towards the bathroom.
He will have a trial run tomorrow!
He must rest up and sleep! Sleep!
He wants to have the best sleep!
…
"You look like you didn't sleep well?" On the terrace of the bar, Secretary Wen asked curiously as she looked at the young man who looked a little pale, holding a glass of girlish pink Cosmopolitan in her hand.
He is so curious!
Ever since he learned from his boss that Xiaochi actually brought him home, he has been extremely curious about how the two get along!
He couldn't understand, didn't Xiaochi have any feelings for the boss? Why did he suddenly take the initiative to bring her home?
It can't be that the boss keeps wearing that stupid bear mask in front of Xiaochi and Xiaochi doesn't even know that the other party is the boss, right?
Hahaha, this is not a girls’ novel, it won’t be so bloody!
Secretary Wen was so gentle that it was creepy: "Are you worried about something?"
Amid the booming and cool rock music, Chi Liu leaned against the terrace railing and smiled slightly: "No." Absolutely not.
Chi Liu: "You are not suitable to be a part-time intimate big sister at all."
Secretary Wen coughed lightly and pushed up his glasses: "Okay." After a pause, he said seriously: "I'm going to have a physical examination tomorrow. Do you need me to accompany you?"
Chi Liu smiled and shook his head - he was not that fragile!
Then, he glanced across the terrace and looked inside.
It's still daytime, so the bar business shouldn't be that good.
However, at this time, the terrace was full of colorful guests!
The room was also full. At the resident singing place, Wen Xi, wearing a black leather jacket, seemed like a different person, playing the bass and singing super cool, hard and powerful songs in ecstasy.
The girl with green twin ponytails was happily playing the drums.
Saito was busy mixing the drinks, as if he had really grown eight hands. The shaker left an afterimage. Xiangxiang and other waiters were working hard to serve the guests drinks and various snacks. He looked so quiet and delicate, so he received a lot of tips.
Chi Liu was naturally very satisfied, but also a little bit unbelievable: business was so good during the day on the first day of trial operation!
Secretary Wen took a sip of wine and laughed, "They all work the night shift and can only come to play during the day. Your store will be very busy day and night in the future."
Chi Liu patted the secretary's shoulder and said, "Thank you."
He knew that he needed the help of his friends to spread the word.
Secretary Wen raised his glass to Chi Liu and touched the glass filled with warm water: "You're welcome."
At this moment, the wind chimes rang softly at the door of the bar.
New customers came in, walked through the noisy inner room and headed towards the terrace.
Suddenly, the whole space fell into silence. All the guests stood stiffly and looked with wide eyes at the new guests who had arrived at the terrace. Only Wen Xi was still playing the bass and rapping fearlessly.
Secretary Wen’s mouth was already open wider than an egg.
Chu Qi stood in front of Chi Liu, with a strange smile on his handsome face: "I want the same wine I drank when we first met."
Thinking of the first night in the other world, Chi Liu’s face instantly turned red: “Ahem!”
Cough cough cough cough cough!
He must be dreaming now!
He could no longer tell whether it was the one-night stand partner in front of him who deserved to die or the cup of Afternoon Death that he never wanted to mix even once again that deserved to die!
