Chapter 141 Strange Dreams
Cheng Jiajia, who had been keeping an eye on the Zheng family, naturally knew that Xu Dongliang and his wife had gone to the Zheng family to freeload a meal. Cheng Jiajia said that she was ignorant and had only heard of people hosting a housewarming party when they moved into a new house. Bringing her own food to someone else's house to freeload a meal was a first for her.
Needless to say, Xu Dongliang's real intention was not what it seemed. She even watched as he went home and got two more bottles of liquor. Hehe, he looked like he was up to no good.
After finishing her meal, Cheng Jiajia kept staring out the window at the other side of the street. She had a feeling that something was going to happen today!
When Cheng Jiajia saw a group of people rushing out, with only Xu Dongliang and Zheng Haiyang missing, her expression became slightly subtle for a moment.
Then, a sudden burst of inspiration struck, and his eyes grew brighter and brighter.
No way, it can't be what I'm thinking, can it?
No way? It can't be this fast, can it?
Despite thinking it was impossible, Cheng Jiajia's eyes grew brighter and brighter. Suppressing her gossip, she deliberately asked with an envious look,
"Hey, Siwei, you're going to Chang Dafeng's house for dinner? Aunt Chang's cooking is famous in our compound. I'm so envious that you get to eat at her house." She wasn't lying; Chang Dafeng's rotten eggs were indeed famous in the compound, no doubt about it!
Dong Siwei froze, almost questioning her existence. This kind of terrible food was notorious in the compound? How bad must the food made by everyone else be?
She immediately looked at Cheng Jiajia with pity, thinking that this person must have never eaten anything good before to think that pig swill was delicious!
It's not hard to imagine how bad this person's meals must be. How pitiful!
The thought of this person living a frugal life filled Dong Siwei with a sense of pride.
Sure enough, cannon fodder is cannon fodder. The life of the chosen one like myself is incomparable to that of the cannon fodder.
Cheng Jiajia, engrossed in watching the drama unfold, didn't notice the man's sympathetic gaze and anxiously asked, "By the way, where's your man?"
Dong Siwei raised her head slightly, a hint of smugness in her eyes, and said, "She's asleep inside. She drank too much with Brother Haiyang and they both fell asleep."
These days, alcohol isn't something the average person can afford, let alone drink until they're drunk; it's a symbol of a wealthy family. So Dong Siwei was extremely proud of herself.
Unfortunately, Cheng Jiajia's attention wasn't on that at all; all she could hear was, "Xu Dongliang and Zheng Haiyang got drunk and fell asleep together."
Cheng Jiajia looked shocked, her eyes shining.
Good heavens!
Can Zheng Haiyang still preserve his innocence?!
Can it be saved?
...
Zheng Haiyang slept very restlessly. He felt hot all over and couldn't breathe, as if something was tightly binding him.
And I always feel like there's something behind me shoving me.
Most importantly, every time he moved forward a little, the thing behind him would move forward a little too, sticking right up to him, which made Zheng Haiyang extremely annoyed.
Later, he had a dream in which an unknown object was chasing him, but no matter how hard he ran, he couldn't shake it off.
Wherever he fled, that thing followed, relentlessly pursuing him and suffocating him.
The piercing discomfort and itching were so real, even in his dreams, that they made him feel terrible all over and left a lasting impression.
When Zheng Haiyang woke up, he was the only one left on the kang (a heated brick bed); Xu Dongliang had already gone home.
Zheng Haiyang felt that his clothes were a little messy, but he didn't think much of it, assuming that he had just messed up his clothes because he was drunk and acting crazy.
Perhaps due to being drunk, my mouth was extremely dry, and I felt very tired.
Zheng Haiyang poured himself a glass of water from the thermos on top of the dresser and drank it all in one gulp, which relieved the burning sensation in his body.
After finishing the drink, Zheng Haiyang realized that he felt sticky and uncomfortable all over, as if he had been sweating profusely.
It was almost dark, and Jiang Qiubai was preparing dinner in the kitchen while Chang Dafeng supervised her to prevent him from sneaking a biteāher usual practice. Zheng Haiyang was aware of this, but he didn't say anything. He only told Jiang Qiubai, "Boil more water; I'm going to take a shower later."
Jiang Qiubai hummed in agreement, recalling his earlier unease. He then carefully examined Zheng Haiyang and, seeing that apart from his slightly disheveled clothes and tired expression, there was nothing wrong with him, he finally felt relieved.
Perhaps she's overthinking it?
Zheng Haiyang noticed and frowned, asking her, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Qiubai chuckled twice and said perfunctorily, "No, nothing, I just noticed you looked tired. Didn't you sleep well?"
Zheng Haiyang frowned and looked Jiang Qiubai up and down with suspicion.
This stupid woman has been ignoring me for the past few days, what's wrong with her today? What's she up to now?
He did feel quite tired, but this woman's sudden concern for him might be part of some scheme. Not wanting to give in to her wishes, he simply gave a curt "hmm."
It wasn't until he took a shower that evening that Zheng Haiyang discovered a rather large bluish mark on his lower back.
Zheng Haiyang frowned. This thing wasn't here before. When was it made?
Suddenly, Zheng Haiyang remembered the thing that had been chasing him in his dream.
That's strange. Could that thing from my dream possibly appear in reality?
Zheng Haiyang was quite annoyed that he slept so soundly that he not only had a mark left on his body, but also felt more and more tired.
Unlike Zheng Haiyang, who was quite depressed, Xu Dongliang was in high spirits and radiant after his sleep.
He was in high spirits when he went to the restroom and ran into Yu Junsheng, but it didn't affect his good mood at all.
Although he was swindled out of 100 yuan by this kid, he has now found something much happier, so how could he care about such a small matter?
Therefore, he greeted Yu Junsheng in a very friendly manner, "Brother Yu, are you going out?"
Yu Junsheng: "..."
Has this person forgotten that he just ripped him off for 100 yuan?
They were so enthusiastic that I felt embarrassed.
Yu Junsheng didn't say much, just nodded and walked forward.
The two walked one in front of the other.
Soon, Yu Junsheng realized something was wrong. Why did this road look more and more like the way to the public toilet?
No way, he doesn't want to go to the toilet with this thing next to him!
Just as Yu Junsheng was about to turn, he suddenly heard a man's and a woman's voices coming from ahead.
Yu Junsheng took a closer look, raised an eyebrow, and with a quick turn of his foot, hid himself in the corner.
He's such a considerate person, he certainly wouldn't go out and spoil the young couple's romance, right?
A shadow flashed by, and Xu Dongliang had followed.
He crouched down furtively, and when he saw who it was, the man slyly remarked, "Hey, this guy's pretty lucky!" If he remembered correctly, this guy Bai had a wife, and now another woman was trying to woo him?
Yu Junsheng: "..." Qi Baifan probably doesn't want this kind of good fortune.
Over there, Qin Miaomiao had changed her usual attire. Gone were her drab, patched clothes; instead, she wore a slightly worn floral cotton-padded jacket, and her hair was tied with two red ribbons. She looked almost like a teenage girl.
Qin Miaomiao twisted her braids a few times, feeling a little proud. She had spent a lot of time and effort to get these from her sister-in-law, just so she could wear them for Bai Fan.
She believed that as long as she dressed up beautifully in the future, Brother Baifan would definitely see her good qualities.
She shyly tugged at the hem of her dress and handed a lunchbox to the refined and handsome man in front of her. "Brother Bai Fan, here are some egg pancakes I prepared for you. They smell delicious. Here, have some." See, her cooking skills are much better than that bitch Bai Xiaohui's!
Qi Baifan smelled the fragrance in the air and swallowed, but his face showed displeasure. "Comrade Qin, I don't want it. I already have a family and I won't accept things from other women."
Qin Miaomiao blushed, lowered her head, and stammered, "I'm not just any woman, I, Brother Bai Fan, I have feelings for you..."
As if he knew what she was going to say, Qi Baifan quickly put on a stern face and reprimanded her, "Comrade Qin, please have some self-respect. As a woman, the most important virtue is self-respect and self-love. You should know what you should say and what you shouldn't say!"
These words were quite harsh; they were practically accusing you, a woman, of being shameless.
Qin Miaomiao, a teenage girl, couldn't bear it. Her face turned pale, and tears welled up in her eyes. "You... how could you say that to me?!"
She glared at Qi Baifan resentfully, stomped her foot, and ran away.
Qi Baifan stood still, squinting as he watched her retreating figure.
He thought to himself with regret that if this person were prettier, he might not be unable to accept her things and play with her. Unfortunately, she was really not good-looking, and the relationship between the Qin family and the Bai family was delicate. He didn't need to take the risk of provoking her.
...
Around the corner, after Qin Miaomiao left, Xu Dongliang and Yu Junsheng emerged from the shadows, both pretending to have just arrived, neither mentioning what they had just witnessed. Only they themselves knew what they were truly thinking.
The two hadn't walked far when they encountered Qi Baifan ahead.
Xu Dongliang glanced at the man and raised an eyebrow. Although this man looked completely different from Zheng Haiyang, he was still on his mind.
He immediately greeted him warmly, "Hey bro, going to the bathroom?"
Qi Baifan paused for a moment, then nodded and politely asked, "You too?"
Xu Dongliang chuckled and rubbed his hands together. "Shall we go together?"
Yu Junsheng: "..."
Why did he feel that this bastard was up to no good?
Silently, she lit a candle for Qi Baifan.
Brother, you've worked hard!
There's no way I'm going to give a warning. Anyway, that guy surnamed Qi isn't a good person, and I'm not familiar with him.
Qi Baifan also felt it was strange. They weren't women, so what was the point of men going to the toilet together? But Xu Dongliang was the director of the supply and marketing cooperative, and he couldn't refuse such enthusiasm, so he nodded and said, "Let's go then."
Xu Dongliang then asked Yu Junsheng with a smile, "Brother Yu, are you going to the restroom too?"
Yu Junsheng's heart tightened, alarm bells rang in his mind, and he quickly laughed it off, "I suddenly remembered I didn't bring any toilet paper, I'll go back and get some, you guys go ahead!"
After saying that, he turned and ran away without waiting for the two men to stop him.
Good heavens! Who wants to go to the toilet with Xu Dongliang, that guy who has ulterior motives towards men?!
He knew it, he knew it! After this bastard moved in, even going to the toilet became dangerous!
Damn it, Xu Dongliang is a dangerous element, a huge dangerous element!!!
From now on, he will not only have to guard against female perverts outside, but also male perverts in the toilet!
Waaaaah, he's having such a hard time!
On the other side, the two watched in utter confusion as Yu Junsheng vanished without a trace. Xu Dongliang actually wanted to say that he had brought some paper, but Yu Junsheng ran too fast, disappearing in the blink of an eye, so he had to give up.
He shrugged at Qi Baifan with a look of helplessness, "This guy runs really fast."
Qi Baifan smiled gently and said nothing. But he was puzzled. He had seen it that night. Yu Junsheng and his wife had swindled Xu Dongliang out of a full 100 yuan. Why was this guy greeting and talking to him like nothing had happened today?
Either this person has a very good temper, or this person is too rich, so they don't care about 100 yuan.
Based on his observation, Xu Dongliang clearly does not belong to the first category.
So... if you don't care about 100 yuan, you must be very rich!
Qi Baifan's eyes darted around, and he instantly made up his mind to befriend this person.
"Comrade Xu, are you settling in well in this courtyard? If there's anything I can help you with, just let me know. Although I haven't been here long, I'm quite familiar with this area."
Xu Dongliang gave him a meaningful look, then suddenly put his arm around his shoulder and laughed heartily, "Definitely, definitely! If we need anything, we'll definitely ask you for help, brother! You're such a loyal friend!"
Qi Baifan smiled smugly. See, as long as he wanted to, there was no one he couldn't build a good relationship with.
The two entered the men's restroom one after the other. Qi Baifan was in the stall next to Xu Dongliang's. They had just taken off their clothes when the sound of water came from the stall.
Feeling completely comfortable.
Xu Dongliang raised an eyebrow, peeked into the next room, a smile playing on his lips, and whistled.
Qi Baifan: "!!!"
For some reason, the memory of this person kissing Zheng Haihua yesterday came to mind.
Startled by his own guess, Qi Baifan froze, quickly putting himself back down, not even noticing the few drops of blood on his pants. He spoke with a fierce but weak voice.
"What are you doing?! I'm telling you, I'm telling you! I'm a married man, don't you dare do anything reckless!"
Xu Dongliang didn't seem to care at all. He glanced at him a few more times and chuckled, "Brother, you've got a good amount of...that, right? Feels pretty good, doesn't it?"
Qi Baifan: "!!!"
Having been startled twice in a short period of time, Qi Baifan's heart was quite shaken.
His eyes widened in horror, and he ran away in a panic, not even having time to fasten his belt.
Damn it, damn it, he's met a super spicy one!
That bastard, that bastard, he really likes men!!!
Ugh, he's dirty, he's dirty!
This compound, this compound, how come there are all sorts of monsters and demons here!
Waaaaah!
