Chapter 25 Chapter 25 You're already an adult, but you still don't have time to walk your bird. No...
At the intersection, Ji Maili stood there waiting for the red light. Liang Xiaohui and the others had already left, so he looked back.
Shen Lu came over and asked, "Are you not pretending anymore?"
Ji Maili smiled, his attitude completely different from before: "I'm staying at your house today."
Tao Dacheng couldn't understand what was going on. He asked Ji Maili, "What were you doing just now? It was like you didn't recognize us."
Ji Maili rubbed his head and said, "Nothing."
Shen Lu was too lazy to expose his little thoughts, "Don't you think my bed is too small?"
Ji Maili jumped up and put his arm on Shen Lu's shoulder: "It's okay, your house is close, I can sleep a little longer tomorrow morning."
Ji Maili called home and said he would not be going home tonight. Liang Lin thought he was fighting outside again and that was why she didn't dare to go home.
Ji Maili was sitting in the yard of Shen Lu's house. The stool was a little limp, and he was swaying on it. "No fight, really no fight. Did you forget that our school has a sports meeting today? There's still one day tomorrow. Shen Lu's house is close to the school, so I'll stay at his house."
Shen Lu listened to his explanation for a long time but still couldn't understand it, so he reached out and said, "Give me the phone, I'll tell my aunt."
Ji Maili handed the phone over and said, "You don't even believe what your own son says. I give in."
Shen Lu picked up the phone, "Auntie, this is Shen Lu, Mai Mai is at my house, yes, there is a sports meeting today, don't worry, I will watch him and won't let him fight."
Ji Maili rolled his eyes speechlessly and turned to look at the grape trellis next door.
The last time he came, he noticed that the grapes next door were big and black. He walked to the foot of the wall, stood on a small stool and took a look at the yard next door.
There was an old man sitting in the yard next door. He secretly reached out and picked a few grapes and put them in his pocket.
"What are you doing?" Shen Lu hung up the phone and turned around to see him clinging to the wall as if he had done something bad.
Ji Maili lowered his voice: "Shh, bring me a basin, I want to steal some grapes."
Shen Lu smiled and said to the next yard: "Grandpa Wang, let's steal some grapes."
The old man next door was rolling cigarettes with paper. He said without even looking up, "You don't steal like a thief, and you're still making a fuss. Learn from your classmates and do it quietly. That's called stealing."
Chen Lu: "Didn't you find out even though it was quiet?"
The old man said disdainfully, "Although you did it quietly, your technique was not good enough. You pulled my grape vines so hard that they almost fell apart. You don't have the skills of the little girl from the Tao family."
Ji Maili was stunned. What do you mean his technique is not good? It’s just his first time stealing and he is not very experienced!
He asked Shen Lu in a low voice, "Do you know him?"
Shen Lu went back to the house to get a basin, and pulled Ji Maili to the next door, "How could the neighbors not know each other? Let's go in and steal."
Seeing Chen Lu swaggering into someone else's yard, Ji Maili stood awkwardly at the door and took a look inside.
Shen Lu turned around and saw him hiding at the door: "Come in."
Old Wang sat on a small stool, squinting at the two young men. He snorted and said, "My grape vines will be plucked clean by you little bastards before they can even make wine."
Shen Lu pushed Ji Maili under the grape trellis and said bluntly, "You said you wanted to make wine last year, but the grapes turned into raisins on the vines and you didn't move. Let us pull them out, otherwise they will become raisins again this year."
Ji Maili picked the raisins one by one, wondering if they would still taste good after turning into raisins.
The old man looked at Ji Maili picking the fruits and said, "This kid is smart. He only picks the big, black ones."
Chen Lu said proudly: "He may not be good at anything else, but he is the best at speaking."
The old man glanced at him and said, "I'm praising him, why are you so proud?"
Shen Lu: "There's nothing I can do. This is all he has."
A grape hit Shen Lu accurately. Ji Maili turned his head and glared at him: "My shooting skills are my second advantage. You didn't expect it!"
Chen Lu cooked a big pot of noodles for dinner. Ji Maili ate two bowls in a hurry. After finishing, he curled up on the small sofa and peeled grapes. "These grapes are very sweet. Do you want to try them?"
Shen Lu was still washing dishes, his hands were covered in foam. Ji Maili walked over with a basin of grapes and handed him one.
Shen Lu reached out to take it, but Ji Maili hissed, "Your hands are covered in detergent."
Shen Lu: "Wait a minute, I'll finish washing..."
Ji Maili put the peeled grapes into his mouth and ran his fingertips across Shen Lu's tongue. "Is it sweet?"
Shen Lu held a grape in his mouth and looked at him, "...sour."
"Impossible!" Ji Maili didn't believe it and licked the grape juice on his fingers. "Sweet."
The young master had very little patience for serving others. He gave him a grape and left with the basin. Shen Lu looked at Ji Maili who was peeling the grapes carefully, and sighed with the grape in his mouth.
It took twenty minutes to wash two bowls and a pot. Ji Maili said he was going to take a shower, but Chen Lu ignored him.
After washing the dishes, Chen Lu glanced at the half-open door of the toilet. Ji Maili was timid and didn't like dark and small spaces. Unfortunately, the bathroom in their house was so small that only two people could stand.
Shen Lu sat where Ji Maili had just peeled grapes and picked up a grape from the remaining grapes in the basin. Beside him were the clothes that Ji Maili had taken off. He took out the TV remote control from under his clothes and was about to turn on the TV when he suddenly found something wrong. He turned around and saw a pair of - underwear thrown on the pile of clothes beside him?
He went in there fucking naked!
The bathroom was too small, and Ji Maili didn't dare to close the door or stay inside for too long. He asked in a loud voice, "Chen Lu, can I use your towel?"
Shen Lu's mind was in a mess and he didn't bother to answer.
The sound of water stopped, and Ji Maili's mumbling voice was particularly clear, "How long does it take to wash the dishes? It's just two bowls, why bother?"
Shen Lu picked up his phone and sent a message to Tao Dacheng.
- Come to my house with a deck of cards, quick.
As soon as the message was sent, the bathroom door opened, "Chen Lu, do you have—"
Shen Lu raised his head and said, "Fuck!"
Shen Lu jumped up, pushed him back into the bathroom, closed the door, and pulled the door handle to prevent him from coming out.
Ji Maili was quiet in the bathroom for two seconds, probably stunned for a moment, and then he banged on the door, "Chen Lu, what are you doing? Let me out, are you sick? Do you have a habit of locking people in the bathroom? Open the door quickly, I'm going to be angry, believe it or not, I will break your legs when I get out!"
Shen Lu held onto the door handle and refused to let go. "Who told you to come out naked?"
Ji Maili yelled, "My clothes are outside, open the door quickly."
Shen Lu: "I'll get you some clothes, put them on before you come out!"
Ji Maili kicked the door hard, "I want new underwear!"
Shen Lu gritted his teeth, "Wait!"
Shen Lu found a new pair of underwear and a set of clothes to wear to sleep. When he came back, the bathroom door was open again. Ji Maili didn't act like an exhibitionist this time. He just stared at him with a pair of eyes. "What the hell is wrong with you?"
Chen Lu stuffed his clothes in. "You're already an adult, but you still don't have time to walk your bird. Aren't you ashamed?"
Ji Maili went back to the bathroom and put on his clothes while saying, "I didn't show it to anyone else. We've taken a shower together so many times. I don't know why you're being so pretentious."
After getting dressed, Ji Maili came out and sat down on the short and broken sofa angrily.
He was afraid of dark and narrow places, and the toilet in Shen Lu's house was only the size of a palm. Once he closed the door, he felt like he would die in there in the next second.
Tao Dacheng came in with a deck of playing cards and noticed something was wrong. "What's going on? Did they have a fight?"
Shen Lu glanced at him and asked, "Why are you so eager for us to quarrel?"
Tao Dacheng said, "You two have been arguing for years, right? You must like arguing."
Ji Maili didn't care if Tao Dacheng was Shen Lu's friend or not, he would complain to anyone he met, "He locked me in the bathroom and wouldn't let me out."
Tao Dacheng looked at Shen Lu in confusion, "What's this new interest?"
Ji Maili muttered, "Isn't it just that I'm not wearing any clothes? What structure on my body is different from yours that can scare you to death?"
Tao Dacheng raised his eyebrows and glanced at Chen Lu. Meeting Chen Lu's helpless eyes, Tao Dacheng smiled knowingly.
Tao Dacheng: "How about you two continue arguing while I leave first?"
Chen Lu glanced at the angry Ji Maili and took the playing cards that Tao Dacheng brought over: "Dou Dizhu?"
