Chapter 7 Li Kui and Li Ghost
Mu Chaoyang stopped, "I heard about the school celebration, but the school was not on holiday at that time. Because there is no holiday, when his classmates called him before, he just politely declined the invitation to the party, but he didn't expect Xiaoxiao to suddenly mention it. "You...... Want to go?" he asked.
"Hmm...... Difference...... Almost. I can't say I don't want to make a proposal, so I replied with a smile.
This is obviously looking for a companion, Mu Chaoyang sighed secretly, "I have only been back in Z City for a few months, so there is no need...... Are they going, friends?" he suddenly thought of something and smiled.
Xiaoxiao, who was a little annoyed by his impulsiveness, immediately grabbed an excuse, "Yes, just my girlfriends, I propose to take the opportunity to party." After all, I haven't seen them for 3 years......" Seeing Mu Chaoyang's thoughtful look, he immediately retorted, wanting to prevaricate: "It's okay, I'll just go by myself." Didn't I forget you and come back!"
"You're afraid it's too boring on the road. Mu Chaoyang nodded unceremoniously, "It's not safe for a person to be in the past." He opened his phone and looked at the calendar, "Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, okay, I'll transfer the class and accompany you to have a look." ”
"No......" Xiaoxiao still wanted to persuade, Mu Chaoyang waved his hand, "My brothers are also coming back, just go to meet together." Walk, eat. ”
Xiaoxiao followed behind Mu Chaoyang like a little daughter-in-law, and said "oh" softly, she wanted to tell Mu Chaoyang that she had gone to City B alone for a month for a meeting, so there was nothing at all when she went back to City N alone, but in the end, she only said: "Thank you, I'm bothering you again." ”
Zhang Xiaoxiao, Zhang Xiaoxiao, she despised herself in her heart, don't say anything about "ordinary friends", it's just that after 4 years, he hasn't used his sense of responsibility to do these small actions.
"Look at the noodles are soaked. Mu Chaoyang complained, "Just tell you to eat quickly." Don't grind. ”
Mu Chaoyang is actually not very good at cooking, and Zhang Xiaoxiao has only eaten what he made once in his memory. At that time, Han Qi came to N City, several people barbecued by the river, Mu Chaoyang baked the rice cakes that Xiaoxiao loved to eat into stones, Han Qi came to the rescue halfway and blocked his resentful mouth with a chicken wing. made everyone laugh, saying that Mu Chaoyang, who was a monk halfway, was not as intimate as his brother.
"What do you want, eat quickly. Mu Chaoyang stood aside with a bowl and stubbornly practiced "safe distance".
"I ......"
"Knock knock. ”
I was about to answer, but I was suddenly interrupted by a knock on the door. Xiaoxiao looked at Mu Chaoyang suspiciously, it stands to reason that today is the last day of his quarantine and there will be no one, who will it be so late?
"Which one?" Mu Chaoyang obviously didn't expect the house to be so lively today, so he put down the dishes and chopsticks and asked with a frown.
"Hello Mr. Mu, I am a staff member of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Z City, and now I need to take samples from your home, please cooperate. ”
"Poof!" smiled as he sucked through the noodles, and almost choked to death when he heard this. At this time, it was Mu Chaoyang's turn to look suspiciously, he stared at Xiaoxiao and wanted to see something on her face, but he only saw that he was smiling desperately there.
"Hey", Mu Chaoyang let out an inaudible sigh, pointed to the direction of the water cup with his hand, and did not forget to sarcastically mock her: "You are Ghost Li who met Li Kui and suffered by himself." ”
"Mr. Mu, are you at home? This is our work card...... "The people outside the door thought that Mu Chaoyang was reluctant to open the door because he was vigilant, and knocked on the door again.
Mu Chaoyang was just about to open it, but was stopped by a smile that got up with an arrow, and at this time she had already heard the voice of Xiao Wu Wu Meng'er outside the door, and said with a wicked smile: "Let me give them a surprise." ”
She leaned to the door, pinched her nose and said, "No, no...... We don't need to sample the sunrise in our house. ”
Xia Yiming and Wu Menger at the door were stunned on the spot. Wu Menger quickly flipped through the information, Mu Chaoyang, male, 26 years old, living alone.
The two of them felt that the question was a little serious, and their expressions became serious.
"Miss, please open the door, we need to take blood samples from the two of us now, please cooperate. It was Wu Meng'er who spoke, and his tone was a little stern. She knew that if someone hadn't been missed, or someone had come in and out during the quarantine, it would be a big problem.
"What happens if I don't cooperate?" Xiaoxiao teased in his mouth, Mu Chaoyang waved at her two meters away to signal her to stop making trouble, Xiaoxiao gave him an OK gesture, and started to open the door.
"Miss, this matter is related to the life safety of the public, if you don't cooperate with us, we can only ask the police to ......"
Wu Menger threatened with a straight face, Xia Yiming also began to rummage through his mobile phone to consider reporting the new situation, and suddenly Wu Menger saw a smiling face appear in the door, she immediately stayed where she was, "Laugh...... Sister Xiaoxiao?"
"Xiao Wu, what do you want to ask the police for?" opened the door with a smile and invited the two of them in, and did not forget to tease: "Mu Chaoyang will make a cup of tea for my colleagues." ”
Xia Yiming and Wu Meng'er hadn't come to their senses yet, how could Zhang Xiaoxiao suddenly appear at the house of the quarantined person? The two took the equipment stiffly, and were mechanically commanded by Xiaoxiao to sit on the sofa and look at each other.
"My colleagues Xia Yiming and Wu Menger. Xiaoxiao sat on the side and introduced Mu Chaoyang, and then pointed to Mu Chaoyang, "My buddy, Mu Chaoyang." ”
Compared with the two who were impacted, Mu Chaoyang looked a lot calmer, he brought tea, nodded slightly and greeted the two.
"I heard Xiao Wu's voice, so I made a joke with you, don't be angry. Xiaoxiao brought tea to the two of them, and pointed to the mask that was still hanging on his ears: "I have taken good precautions and have not broken the rules." ”
"And I've always kept a safe distance, 2 meters. Mu Chaoyang was worried that Xiaoxiao's colleagues would reproach her, so she stood aside and added, but saw the two staff members looking at Xiaoxiao with puzzled expressions.
Zhang Xiaoxiao shrugged his shoulders on the side at this time, pursed his lips and snickered.
"Xiaoxiao is directly in contact with your bowls, chopsticks and water cups, 2 meters shouldn't be useless......" Xia Yiming said the truth with a straightforward personality, and was pulled by Wu Meng'er who was sitting next to him, made a look, and said: "The safe distance is still a little useful." Yes...... Shall we take blood then?"
After saying that, Wu Meng'er suddenly thought of something, looked at Xiaoxiao, and asked tentatively: "Why don't you ...... Sister Xiaoxiao is here to do it?"
Mu Chaoyang was not a fool, listening to Xia Yiming's words, he knew that Xiaoxiao was tricking him before, and glanced at him threateningly. The stunned smile immediately sat upright, putting away her smile as if she hadn't seen anything. When he was holding it, he was suddenly named by Wu Meng'er, and his conditioned reflex generally shook his head into a rattle, "No, no, no." Don't, don't, don't. ”
"Oh...... Okay, huh. Wu Menger retracted his gaze, smiled dryly and kicked Xia Yiming, signaling that it was time to start working.
There was an inexplicable atmosphere in the room, no one spoke much, Xia Yiming would be a little forgetful once he started working, only Xiao Wu's eyes secretly glanced between Mu Chaoyang and Zhang Xiaoxiao from time to time, and he stopped talking.
"Then we'll send the sample back to the unit first......" In such a strange atmosphere, the two completed their work quietly and quickly, Wu Menger pulled Xia Yiming to get up and say goodbye, Xia Yiming, who had no eyesight, looked back at Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, do you want to take our car back together...... Oops......"
Wu Meng'er dragged her ignorant colleague again, this little smile sister still appeared here, I can only say that maybe she didn't plan to go back tonight, isn't this question embarrassing?
"Okay. Xiaoxiao surprised her, answered very simply, turned her head and told Mu Chaoyang: "Then I'll go back first." ”
Wu Meng'er gave Xia Yiming a complaining look, and then secretly glanced at Mu Chaoyang's reaction, and when he saw the man, he just nodded, and admonished: "I can't go out yet, I can only work hard for your two colleagues to send you, and send me a text message when you get home." ”
Xiaoxiao nodded, pointed to the fruit she brought, and told him to remember to eat it.
"Doctor Xia, Doctor Wu. Mu Chaoyang sent a few people to the door, and suddenly remembered something and called them, "There is a bakery downstairs in my house, please wait for a while, let Xiaoxiao buy some grain, she didn't have much dinner today." ”
Zhang Xiaoxiao, who was walking at the forefront, stagnated slightly, and did not refute, but said goodbye to Mu Chaoyang with a reflexive smile. Wu Menger glanced at Xia Yiming meaningfully, and his eyes flashed with a gossipy smile.
But when he arrived at the bakery downstairs, Xiaoxiao walked straight over and didn't give the store a look.
"Sister Xiaoxiao, you go buy food, Brother Yiming and I will go and put the samples first. Xiao Wu was afraid of Xiaoxiao because he was worried that the two would mind, so he took the initiative to speak. Xiaoxiao blinked his eyes and refused, "No need, how can I have no food at home?" He pulled Xiao Wu over.
The car drove out of Mu Chaoyang's house, gradually moving away from the bustling, and the street lights on both sides slowly dimmed and became more and more clean. Xia Yiming, who was tired for a day, had already leaned on the seat of the car and closed his eyes to recuperate, only Wu Menger was still thinking about the gossip just now, and he was so excited that he couldn't sleep, but he didn't dare to open his mouth to Xiaoxiao.
Through the reflection of the car window, Xiaoxiao also discovered Xiao Wu's abnormality, and this childish little girl's mind was all on her face. She turned around and reminded Xiao Wu empathetically: "Just ask whatever you want." ”
Seeing that his careful thinking was recognized, Xiao Wu stuck out his tongue embarrassedly and said, "Sister Xiaoxiao, did you find out?"
Zhang Xiaoxiao couldn't deny it, nodded, and thought to himself that just like you, it would be difficult not to find out.
"That...... Teacher Mu...... Is it your boyfriend?" is a good straight punch, not dragging the mud and water. Xiaoxiao must have heard the sound of Xia Yiming being choked in the front seat, hey, feelings are also eavesdropping.
"It's not. The answer was categorical, without hesitation. "Just friends from college. ”
"Ahh Xiao Wu's shoulders fell, and the flame of gossip was almost extinguished, "Friend...... Then is he interested in Sister Xiaoxiao? I think he cares about you, and he is afraid that you will be punished for violating the rules and remembering that you didn't eat......"
Care?smile is undeniable. "He's a good guy for everyone. In college, Mu Chaoyang is almost meticulous and responsive to Xiaoxiao, and the only time she refuses Xiaoxiao's request seems to be her confession.
"Actually......" Xiao Wu still wanted to say something, she wanted to tell Zhang Xiaoxiao that maybe Xiaoxiao didn't even notice it, she was full of girlish vitality when she was with Mu Chaoyang just now, this is Zhang Xiaoxiao that no one else has ever seen in the unit.
"Xiao Wu, have you sent the samples back to the unit this afternoon?" Xia Yiming, who had been closing his eyes in front of him, suddenly interrupted Xiao Wu's words and asked thoughtlessly.
Xiao Wu was stunned, "I sent it." "Didn't you send it with me?
"Oh. Yes. Xia Yiming closed his eyes again.
Xiao Wu, who was suddenly interrupted, was not good at mentioning the topic just now, she quieted down, secretly glanced at her and smiled, saw the complicated look in her eyes, and swallowed all the remaining words back, and the car fell silent again, only hearing the sound of the engine "humming".
