Chu Ci leaned on the car and looked at Zuo Yuntang, his side face was impeccable, angular, and exuding an aura of abstinence/lust, as if moving hormones.

Zuo Yuntang is a very good man, and when he inquired in the circle, everyone knew that he was clean and self-conscious, and there was never the slightest scandal.

Chu Ci can fully understand that Ruan Yulin can fall in love with Zuo Yuntang at first sight.

Her gaze was too hot, Zuo Yuntang tilted her head, and said with a smile: "What's the matter?

"No, no. Chu Ci settled down and pulled the corners of his mouth slightly: "I just have some regrets that you didn't become my brother-in-law." ”

This is a very inappropriate sentence, but Chu Ci couldn't help but say it, she was also deliberately pushing Zuo Yuntang away.

Zuo Yuntang just smiled, didn't say anything, looked into the distance with a distant gaze, and reminded: "He called you last night." ”

Hearing this, Chu Ci's heart jumped, and then he heard Zuo Yuntang say, "I didn't answer." ”

Chu Ci didn't care if Zuo Yuntang answered the phone, she was just surprised that Tang Qing was willing to call her.

Chu Ci found his mobile phone and opened the communication record, and there was indeed a missed call from Tang Qing.

Looking at the page of the mobile phone, Chu Ci bent the corners of her mouth in amazement, there was such a beautiful sunrise in front of her, and the little bad heart that Tang Qing brought to her seemed so small.

Zuo Yuntang put his hands in his pockets, and his voice was mellow: "I'll send you back." ”

"Trouble. Chu Ci agreed swayingly, she invited people to drink with her last night, and she couldn't not give face at this time.

After a hangover, his head hurt a little, his abdomen was empty, and he was a little hungry, Chu Ci didn't say anything, but Zuo Yuntang stopped when he passed by a breakfast shop halfway and went in to buy a breakfast.

"Eat something to cushion your stomach. ”

Chu Ci was stunned for a moment and took it: "Thank you." ”

"Don't drink like this in the future, hurt your body, drink some porridge to warm your stomach. Zuo Yuntang said: "There may be many people in this world who love you, but you also have to love yourself." ”

Love yourself?

This was the first time Chu Ci had heard someone say such things to her.

From the time she met Tang Qing, she had been longing for Tang Qing to turn back and love her, and later when she returned to Ruan's house, she also longed for family love from Ruan Yulin.

She has always longed to be loved, to love others, but has forgotten to love herself.

Chu Ci held the hot breakfast, and there was an indescribable peace in his heart.

Zuo Yuntang restarted the car and drove to Ruan's house, and when he was on the road, he suddenly opened his mouth to mention Nanshu.

"You're very close to Nanshu now?"

"He is my benefactor, he healed my throat, we cooperated to open a beauty salon, it is my friend and neighbor, so we naturally got closer, but he encountered something and left Beicheng temporarily. ”

Chu Ci remembered Zuo Yuntang's previous confrontation with Nanshu, and frowned slightly: "Zuo Shao, do you have any misunderstanding about Nanshu?"

"Nope. Zuo Yuntang said: "I just asked casually, Nanshu is a person full of secrets, and it is inevitable to be curious." ”

Nanshu does have a lot of secrets, and so far, Chu Ci doesn't know Nanshu's ancestral hometown, what his surname is, who is in the family, or what he does at home.

"Nanshu is easy-going, likes freedom, before coming to Beicheng, the four seas are home, and he is used to being casual. Chu Ci smiled: "I envy him for his ease of idle clouds and wild cranes." ”

"There are many people in this world, or great families, not the tip of the iceberg that we see with our eyes. Zuo Yuntang's voice was low and magnetic: "My grandfather once met a master of the world, but also like Nanshu likes to dress up, grandpa once said, the times change, some inheritance but thousands of years and hundreds of years unchanged, a thousand years ago, there was a return to the Yi people, they advocate freedom, but also study the art of immortality." ”

"Immortal?" Chu Ci said with a smile: "Where is there any immortality, contrary to the laws of nature, does this Gui Yi still want to learn from Qin Shi Huang?"

"There are not many people in this world who don't want to live forever. Zuo Yuntang said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Chu Ci, if there is a chance of immortality, how will you choose?"

Chu Ci smiled, his smile mixed with a bit of bitterness: "I have lived such a failed life in just a few decades, if this is really immortal, wouldn't it be more painful, I still live to be sixty or seventy years old." ”

Zuo Yuntang was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "When you are sixty or seventy years old, I will also be seventy or eighty, my hair will be gray, and my teeth will fall out." ”

Chu Ci seemed to be able to see life decades later, she looked out the window, and someone had an appointment with her.

The car moved forward slowly, and when it arrived at the door of Ruan's house, Chu Ci got out of the car, and a foul smell wafted in the air, as if it was the smell of rotten meat.

"What stinks. ”

Chu Ci subconsciously pinched his nose, Zuo Yuntang also smelled it, and his eyes swept towards the courtyard of Nanshu next door.

"The bone-eating flowers have withered. ”

Chu Ci took a closer look, it was really withered, and the stench of carrion seemed to be emanating from the flowers, but these flowers were plants, how could there be the stench of carrion and maggots?

The flowers withered and fell into the soil, and the soil turned black, and it was the first time Chu Ci had seen such a phenomenon.

Chu Ci pushed open the door of the courtyard and was about to take a look, when suddenly there was a force on her wrist, and she was pulled back.

"Don't come closer. Zuo Yuntang pulled Chu Ci behind him: "It's too stinky, let's let the property deal with it." ”

Nanshu didn't come back, and the stinking flowers couldn't just be left alone, and the neighbors would complain.

Chu Ci informed the property, and soon the property sent someone, and as soon as the two big men approached the withered flower, they immediately covered their noses and vomited.

"What kind of flower is this, it stinks. ”

"It's just that it stinks worse than a carrion, who is so strange and raises such a stinky flower. ”

Chu Ci listened to others arranging Nanshu, and was about to say a few words, but Zuo Yuntang stopped her: "Chu Ci, you go back first, I'll leave it to them here, I seem to have heard Xiaoye crying just now." ”

Zuo Yuntang is very good at grasping people's hearts, and as soon as Chu Ci heard that Xiaoye was crying, he immediately entered the house.

Zuo Yuntang stood by and watched the people of the property clean up, and advised: "Wear masks and gloves, don't throw these dead flowers around, let alone throw them into the water, take them and burn them." ”

"It's burned? How can you burn a flower, and it won't burn. The people in the property looked confused, thinking that Zuo Yuntang was commanding indiscriminately.

"Pour alcohol or gasoline and be sure to burn it. Zuo Yuntang emphasized: "These flowers may be infectious/diseased/bacteria. ”

The people in both properties felt that Zuo Yuntang was alarmist, but it was just a few pots of withered flowers, how could it be so serious.

The two agreed on their faces, perfunctory, moved the flower pots, and randomly found a garbage station to throw them away.

"He also said that he bought gasoline and burned alcohol, and these things don't cost money, so he threw them here, and naturally someone would come to recycle them. ”

As soon as the two turned their feet and walked, a sprinkler truck passed by, and the water happened to spray on several pots of flowers, and suddenly the air was filled with a strong stench.
