Chapter 203: Bird Soup Why do I feel like you want to do something bad?
When she opened the window, the scent of green grass filled her face and Mrs. Mysid breathed in comfortably.
The warm wind blew all night, and when we woke up in the morning, spring had arrived.
She walked briskly to the kitchen to boil water and prepare breakfast, but heard the doorman's noise. She stretched her head and saw Bai Ling had just returned from his morning run. He greeted her as he walked in the door.
"Good morning, Mrs. Mysid."
"Good morning!" The woman wiped her hands nervously, her face filled with joy, "You got up really early. How did you sleep? Is the mattress suitable? Do you need another quilt? It's always a little cold at night..."
Perhaps she suddenly realized that she had too many questions, so she turned around shyly, took the kettle, and said shyly, "By the way, I was just about to boil some water. Would you like to have some breakfast?"
"Everything is fine," Bai Ling waited patiently for her to finish and answered them one by one, "The mattress is very soft, the quilt is thick, and I slept well until dawn."
As he spoke, he unzipped his sportswear to cool off the heat from running. "You guys have breakfast first. Mr. D and I will eat later."
"Okay." Mrs. Jinxia nodded enthusiastically and turned on the stove. A dry, empty sound came from the pipe.
She was stunned.
The gas is out.
Bai Ling remembered something, took out the terminal and looked at the reported news, and suddenly said: "A section of the energy pipeline was blown up before. Today they stopped all work in this section to repair the pipeline. It should be repaired tonight."
Mrs. Mysid muttered in annoyance, "Looks like I won't be able to have tea today."
The small kitchen stopped working and Mrs. Mysid went out to get bread, so Bai Ling went back to the house with a clear conscience and took another half-hour nap.
Take off your clothes, get into bed, and lift the quilt. He liked to put his slightly cool paws into the mermaid's warm quilt, listening to the cold-blooded animal frowning and muttering in its sleep because of the sudden temperature difference, "Little bastard...", and then subconsciously tightening his arms, pulling him into the nest, and warming him with the remaining warmth from last night.
It is totally unimaginable that this powerful alpha is the sleepier one.
Maybe because he is a fish and can hibernate?
Bai Ling lay on top of him and whispered in his ear, "Are you going out today?"
"...I'm not going out." His eyelids opened, revealing an inhuman white nictitating membrane. The membrane retracted, revealing his vertical green eyes. "My throat is hoarse, so they allowed me to rest for a day."
After saying that, the mermaid rolled her eyes, meaning something unclear. "Do you have any plans?"
Bai Ling denied: "No."
"Then why do you ask?"
Bird casually lifted his collar and took a glance, "I just want to confirm how long I can stay on your pectoral muscles."
Before she could finish her words, her wrist was grabbed by the merman, and her body, which was full of adrenaline from the exercise, was trapped between the male's chest and the mattress.
Yu Chen lowered his head to look closely, and clearly saw the excitement in the bird's eyes. He understood, smiled silently, leaned over and sniffed the bird's neck, "Is the door locked?"
Bai Ling hooked his arm around his neck and pulled it down, "Lock it."
"Have you had breakfast?"
"not yet."
The mermaid looked up and said gently, "I can't let you eat grass with an empty stomach."
That sounds reasonable.
But Bai Ling knew that was definitely not the case.
He went out for a run just now. His pace was steady and easy. It took him only thirty minutes to run ten kilometers. Fireworks popped up on the monitoring bracelet interface: [Congratulations, your physical fitness has increased by 6%! ] and achieved excellent results. It's a pity that the 6% surplus is just a drop in the bucket if it is used here - Bai Ling's mouth was covered by the mermaid's palm to prevent Mrs. Mysid Shrimp who was walking around next door from hearing some indecent noises. He looked at the old ceiling and felt his thighs cramping. His limbs and torso were pressed into the sheets with sweat, his forehead was sweating, and he was forced to empty his mind.
He was breathing so hard that he was trembling a little. He couldn't help but stretch his head to look up. The man's nightgown was untied, and the movements of his abdominal muscles and mermaid line were pointing towards him. So he looked at his lower abdomen, the thin muscles that bulged rhythmically, flattened, and bulged again.
It’s definitely not on an empty stomach.
Fully fed.
Compared to now, the previous ten-kilometer march seemed like a warm-up exercise. He collapsed and began to wail silently, feeling the lactic acid from overuse accumulating in his thigh muscles, which was sore, painful and pleasurable. Even so, the old bastard wanted to add more pressure, and ordered slowly, "Hold your legs well."
But just like a 10-kilometer morning run will become easier and easier as you run, once you pass the "peak" in exercise physiology, your internal organs will function better, oxygen supply will increase, and your nerve centers will respond with a wave of pleasure. After it was over, he was still lying on his side, limp, looking at the mermaid's muscular waist and abdomen revealed when she changed clothes, and he felt a little comfortable and floating in his heart.
Really...really, quite pretty...
Yu Chen heard him mutter something, turned around and raised his eyebrows, "Beauty?"
"..." Bai Ling got up and walked along, "Nothing, I was just praising you."
The room is small, and I can just turn around and reach out to grab someone. Yu Chen lowered his gaze and casually wiped the base of his prosthesis, rubbing it with his fingertips to make it sticky. Don’t you recognize it?
"What did you praise me for? Praise me again." The mermaid said gently.
Bai Ling was so distracted by his touch that she had nowhere to hide. Her body and eyes were all wandering. "... Didn't you hear it?"
The mermaid said casually: "I forgot."
What a forgetful thing! You are not a fish with a memory of only seven seconds! ...Oh, he is the fish.
Facing the old monster who was full of interest and patience, Bai Ling had to close his eyes and replied humiliatingly: "Praise you, you did a good job, you did me an extremely good job."
The mermaid let him go and said politely, "Thank you for your comment. Next time I will include this sentence in my resume and indicate the source."
Bai Ling: “……?!!”
Bad guy!
Yu Chen couldn't help but smile as he watched him walk into the bathroom with his wings folded like an eagle, gritting his teeth and stomping.
I am happy just waking up early.
Bai Ling walked around the bathroom. On the table were their toiletries, clearly separated. As a soldier, Bai Ling never paid attention to this aspect. He usually used a bottle of shower gel to wash his whole body.
But the mermaid had high requirements for moisture and was very particular. Even though she came to experience life, she still brought a bunch of bottles and cans. This one was for wiping her hair, that one was for washing her scales, and some were for cleaning her fins...
Bai Ling couldn't figure out the specific purpose of each bottle, he only remembered the price.
At this moment, he squeezed his bottle of "Military Mint 18-in-1 Shower Gel" and found it was empty.
So he picked up a bottle of married woman's shampoo and shouted to Yu Chen in the bathroom, "I'm going to use your bottle of shower shampoo that's worth a second-hand MiG M4 machine gun."
Yu Chen turned around in his chair and laughed, "Your monetary system is really special."
There was an echo from the bathroom, "Of course, I'll also use your expensive comb with an infrared sight."
God, he was like a little robot, a military bird.
Built-in conversion system. So cute.
"——Use whatever you want."
He said this in a light tone, and prepared to turn on his computer to check his emails. The screen reflection of the boot interface showed the gloomy and upturned corners of his mouth. He was in such a good mood that he didn't want to work and just wanted to go in and harass the birds.
After forcing himself to calm down for a while, Yu Chen picked up the cup and prepared to go out to make a cup of hot tea.
When I walked into the kitchen, Mrs. Mysis told me that the gas was out and there was no hot water.
His first reaction was that the bird was taking a cold shower.
He knocked on the bathroom door as a matter of course, turned off the freezing cold shower, dragged the bird over, wrapped it in a wool blanket and wiped it, then used the terminal to ask the logistics staff to bring some hot water.
Falcon, wrapped in a blanket, was still annoyed at him, "The temperature has risen, what's the big deal about taking a cold shower."
Yu Chen tapped the bird's nose and said, "No, you'll catch a cold."
It was definitely too late for the logistics department to boil water, so they just called the mecha over. Rattlesnake came running over and peeked out of the window, "Master, I'll bring you some hot water!"
The mecha's condensation chamber contains clean water that is very clean and can reach drinking grade.
Rattlesnake heated the water and inserted its extra-long pipe into the skylight of the bathroom. It also has a small part embedded on it to make it look like a shower head, which is convenient for Bai Ling.
"Master, don't worry. I've guarded the building. No one will see the window." Rattlesnake said in a clear and cold voice, "This is very clean water. I've purified it. You can even use it to make tea."
The walls were very thin and there was a living room next door, so I could vaguely hear Yu Chen chatting with Mrs. Mysid while taking a shower.
The mermaid has the ability to get along well with everyone in the world as long as he wants to - the key is that he doesn't want to.
Bai Ling listened from time to time, listening to them talk about the latest prices, neighborhood gossip, and what vegetables can be grown in pots in early spring, such as spinach, lettuce, potatoes and some vegetables that can be eaten quickly.
It was obviously an ordinary day.
But friendly and real.
The buzzard said he was lucky, and he was indeed so, because people who have been trudging in the quagmire of war for a long time can easily lose their senses, so that every morning when they wake up is gray, tense and terrifying.
But now, he was invaded and permeated by the vivid and profound reality for a long time. Maybe it felt very strange to others, but he really needed this kind of invasion——
The bathroom door opened and then closed behind him, his footsteps were steady and relaxed, and as he kept his distance, he introduced himself, "It's me."
Of course, Bai Ling couldn't mistake his lazy, elegant and unpretentious voice.
Pulling aside the curtain, Bai Ling pursed her lips slightly and asked deliberately, "Did you get any useful information?"
Yu Chen cooperated and pretended to think, "Well, the neighbor next door gave birth to two kittens. This will affect our combat objectives in a butterfly effect."
Bai Ling couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The bathroom faces the street, and Mysis installed anti-peep glass. The antique Tiffany stained glass style is very ingenious. When the sunlight shines in from the corner to the first floor, it scatters kaleidoscope-like colors on the white tiles in the bathroom.
The light just happened to shine on the opposite side, falling on the man's slim-cut shirt and illuminating the small teacup in his hand.
Bai Ling was surprised: "What are you doing with the teacup?"
Yu Chen looked at him soothingly, and said politely: "I came to ask for hot water."
Bai Ling curled his lips and teased, "I really don't understand why you can be so self-righteous."
Yu Chen pointed out confidently: "Because you didn't close the door."
Well, I am an accomplice this time.
Bai Ling knew that he did have the habit of drinking hot tea every morning, so he prepared to take the cup and pour him a clean cup. Maybe I've seen too many fish go crazy, so now I don't find it weird to drink tea in the bathroom anymore. However, he didn't expect that the fish would be so slow and just move the teacup towards him to collect water from his chest.
Bai Ling was startled by the porcelain cup pressing against him: "Are you really here to drink tea? Why do I feel like you want to do something bad?"
Yu Chen elegantly threw the tea bag: "Do I have it?"
Bai Ling narrowed his eyes and stared at him: "Absolutely, are you secretly happy?" He tilted his head and looked, "Look, you are still smiling."
Yu Chen held the small string and swung the tea bag back and forth in the water. He leaned against the wall with an elegant posture, sipping tea leisurely, as if he really came here to drink, but the corners of his mouth that could not be suppressed gave him away slightly.
There was a slight foam in the teacup. Bai Ling was stunned for a moment, realizing belatedly: "It's all shampoo foam. It's poisonous!"
The mermaid calmly sipped the drink and said implicitly, "This shows the importance of my bottle of shower shampoo, which is worth a second-hand MiG M4 machine gun. It is pure natural."
Seasoning.
It goes perfectly with bird soup.
Bai Ling originally wanted to say that it was still very dirty. But then they thought, they had eaten dirtier things before, and they just stared at the wall in silence, feeling guilty.
Being interrupted like this, Bai Ling's random thoughts that had originally popped up in his mind disappeared again.
Rinse out the shampoo. Bubbles cover hot eyelids, mermaids celebrate water suspension day, today is another beautiful day.
For breakfast, we had the bread brought by Mrs. Mysid and the roasted pigeon sent by the logistics department.
"Eating roasted pigeon so early in the morning?"
The mermaid explained, "I heard you murmuring doves last night, and I thought you were ordering food from me."
Bai Ling looked at him suspiciously, suspecting that this guy was secretly reading his dreams.
But he thought, anyway, I am not the only one in this country who has no privacy in front of him, so just watch it. Next time I dream about ordering two fleets and maxing out the old man’s card!
Thinking of the fleet, the roasted pigeon in my mouth tasted even more delicious. It feels so good to have a full stomach after a feast. Yu Chen has always been a fan of luxury breakfasts, and Bai Ling always goes out with a bulging stomach.
Before leaving, Bai Ling deliberately stepped over and kissed the mermaid's freshly washed and blow-dried blonde hair with his oily lips, in retaliation for the guy using his chest to scoop water to make tea, "Not bad, pigeon!"
Yu Chen glanced at his quickly running back, slowly wiped his curly hair with a napkin, pushed away the chair and walked out.
Mrs. Mysid heard two footsteps, one in front and one behind, and she stretched her head to look.
At the gatehouse, the small door of the utility room was violently pulled open, Commander Bai was grabbed by the wrist and dragged inside, and the door creaked shut. Then there was a noise like a fight. I didn't know which box was knocked over or which can was stepped on. After a while, the elegant and noble Mr. D came out, wiping the corner of his mouth that was bitten. The cold and upright Commander Bai raised his head with swollen lips and snorted, then turned around to open the door, "Commander Bai, good morning——"
The guard's spirited voice faded away with the sound of the door closing.
Yu Chen sat back in the restaurant, and seeing Mrs. Mysid's shocked expression, he smiled and said, "Excuse me."
"You two... have a really good relationship," she added sincerely, "very harmonious! You must be very compatible, right?"
Yu Chen smiled: "No, I just barely passed."
Mrs. Mysid smiled with her eyes curved. “So it’s about cultivating feelings, just like growing vegetables.”
Pay close attention and water daily.
One day later, when Bai Ling was sorting out the mermaid's things, he found a book called "Bird's Cookbook", which recorded some miscellaneous matters in detail. One of the notes reads:
"He is a soldier and is used to taking a shower in fifteen minutes. If it exceeds the time, remember to open the bathroom door and check."
This is not a superficial male patrolling his territory, but——
"Post-traumatic stress disorder will last a lifetime and bring negative emotions. The doctor said that the best way is not to persuade him to get better, but to interrupt him with my emotions and bring him back to reality."
Control with precision and care.
