I looked at the message on the screen and subconsciously thought I was dazzled.

I raised my hand and rubbed my eyes, blinking a few more times before realizing that I was not mistaken.

I know every word in front of me, but I don't know why, but I have a feeling that I can't understand it.

It's almost ten o'clock in the evening, why would Zhang Kexin suddenly call me to her house at such a time?

Truth be told, it's hard not to reverie a woman who lives alone invites a man to her home late at night.

Especially Zhang Kexin is still the kind of super beauty whose appearance and figure are impeccable, I really feel a little flustered inexplicably.

I held my phone and pondered for a long time before I tentatively replied to her with a WeChat message: "What's wrong?" Did something happen? ”

Zhang Kexin seemed to have been waiting for my response, so after I sent the message, she replied directly.

"I was just watching a horror movie when there was a sudden power outage in my house...... I don't know what's going on, and I don't dare to move, so I've been hiding under the covers for now. Can you come and save me? I'm scared to death, I'm so scared......"

Under this message, she also posted a lot of crying emojis in a row.

I could feel that she was really scared, and that she really needed someone to be there for her right now.

I sighed helplessly, and although this reason seemed like a fine deal, we were just friends after all. So no matter how you look at it, it's still a bit ambiguous. But it's much better than the invitation to let me go to her house for a drink. Otherwise, I might not dare to go to her house alone at night.

"Okay, I know, don't be afraid, I'll go."

After sending this WeChat, I rushed out of the house as fast as I could.

I flagged down a taxi on the side of the road, and after telling me where I was going, I kept urging the driver to drive faster.

Along the way, Zhang Kexin regarded me as a lifesaver, and sent me WeChat one after another.

She said that talking to me would ease her fears a little.

Although I don't have any feelings for horror movies, I can probably imagine how she feels at the moment.

So I accompanied her to chat on WeChat.

This kind of interaction makes time seem to speed up a little before you know it.

Thirty minutes passed in a blink of an eye, and I also saw through the car window the high-end community where Zhang Kexin lived.

The tall buildings that were supposed to be lit with all kinds of lights were all plunged into endless darkness at the moment, as if they had melted into the night sky.

It seems that the scale of this power outage is not small, and it is very likely that there is something wrong with repairing the faulty line or something.

I thought about it briefly and then paid to get out of the car.

I went to the convenience store on the street and bought a few candles, and then ran to the entrance of the community.

Because this community is relatively high-end, it is not that the owner can't enter casually, so I called Zhang Kexin and asked her to talk to the doorman.

After the doorman let me go, I asked about the power outage. He said that it was the line repair, and the power would be cut off from 9:45 to 4 tomorrow morning, and the notice had been posted before.

It was about the same as I expected, so I nodded and said thank you and continued to run into the community.

At this time, Zhang Kexin said nervously to me on the phone: "Uncle, I heard a strange sound in the room, it can't be a ghost, right?" ”

She spoke in a small, trembling voice, and even had the feeling that she was about to cry.

It seemed that she was really scared.

I don't know what kind of movie she watched, and she can be scared like this.

"Don't think about it, there are ghosts in this world."

I gasped in response.

Zhang Kexin immediately asked, "Really? Why are you so sure you don't? ”

I didn't know how to answer this question, so I could only talk nonsense to her: "That's not important, it's not there anyway." ”

"Oh......"

Zhang Kexin snorted weakly, as if there was still a lot of confusion about this issue.

I didn't know what to say to soothe her mood, so I was about to hang up the phone, but Zhang Kexin quickly stopped me, and she said to me in a tone that was almost pleading: "Can you not hang up the phone, listening to your voice, I don't seem to be so scared......"

"Okay, then I won't hang."

I try to be as gentle as I can, and then I pick up my pace and take the initiative to find a topic.

"If you're so timid, why do you have to go to a horror movie?"

Frankly, this question is very applicable to most women. My wife and the women I've had intimate contact with in the past, they've basically done similar things.

I don't really understand this.

Zhang Kexin's answer is no different from that of most women, she said: "Because I like it, I am curious." ”

"So you're going to scare yourself like this?"

Zhang Kexin snorted pitifully twice, and then responded with a particularly aggrieved feeling: "Then I didn't know that there would be a sudden power outage...... Otherwise, I wouldn't have been scared like this......"

"Okay, okay."

I didn't dwell on this issue any longer. After all, women's thinking is completely different from that of men, and we can't be 100% empathetic, we can only try to understand each other.

Entering the lobby on the first floor, the eye is almost completely swallowed up by darkness. Only a few night lights in the corners remained, and signs for safe passages gave off a silent light.

At the moment, there is not even half a figure here, except for me, and there is a faint atmosphere of dead silence around me, and with the sound of my own footsteps, I feel a little like I am in a horror movie.

I smiled self-deprecatingly, lit myself a cigarette, turned on the flashlight, and walked towards the safe passage.

It was only at this time that I suddenly realized a fact, and along with my steps, it also slowed down.

I swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked Zhang Kexin in despair: "Your family seems to live on the thirty-seventh floor, right?" ”

"Hmm."

Zhang Kexin quickly responded.

She probably didn't think much of it at first, but after a short silence, she finally realized a serious problem.

"Yikes! Oops, we've got a power outage here, and the elevator ......"

The corners of my mouth twitched and I smiled, and I felt like I was being escorted to the execution ground.

I said, "It's okay, I'll climb up, and I'll do it, but you'll have to wait for me a little longer." ”

"Oh my God...... Thirty-seven floors, how to climb it......"

Zhang Kexin felt very sorry for me, she had been hesitant for a long time, and she was probably a little embarrassed to talk to me. Finally, a few words finally popped out of his mouth, and his voice was insignificant: "Then, then you slow down, don't worry......"

Thirty-seventh floor, this is really a big test for me.

Even though I've been exercising all year round, it's still a bit hard to get through the sudden height.

It took me more than thirty minutes, I stopped for I don't know how many times, I don't know how many cigarettes I smoked, but I finally pushed open the passage door on the thirty-seventh floor.

By this time, I felt like my legs weren't my legs anymore. I felt as if I was walking on the clouds, and my whole body felt like I was floating in the air. My brain was also dizzy, and I was sweating a lot. Damn, that feeling, it's really uncomfortable.

I leaned against the door and breathed a few breaths, and then leaned against the wall and staggered to the door of Zhang Kexin's house.

"I'm here, you can open the door."

When Zhang Kexin heard my voice, he immediately responded: "It's coming, it's coming." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, I heard the sound of her jumping out of bed through the earpiece, followed by a rush of footsteps, and then she opened the door in front of me.

In the dark, both of us were holding our phones, and in the light of the two flashes, we looked at each other with complicated expressions.

Zhang Kexin should have forgotten to change her clothes in a hurry, so she only wore a thin and transparent small suspender at this time, and her own scale was too grandiose, so that this small suspender almost did not play a role in covering, which was basically equivalent to presenting an original painting in front of my eyes.

I blinked dumbfounded, completely stunned.

Zhang Kexin didn't realize this situation at all, she was still looking at me with a concerned face, and asked, "Uncle, are you okay?" ”

I nodded unconsciously, and then noticed that she was wearing very little underneath.

The two slender white legs were close together, and they didn't even wear slippers on their feet.

I was too embarrassed to look at it more, so I quickly stopped looking at it, and said to her very embarrassedly: "Well, do you want to change your clothes first?" ”

"Huh?"

Zhang Kexin replied suspiciously, and then glanced down at himself.

It took about two seconds for her eyes to widen, and she let out a sharp exclamation, then turned and ran away with a red face.

I scratched my hair helplessly, I didn't expect her to be so unrestrained when she was home alone.

I pouted, didn't think much more, and after closing the door, I sat down on the couch and lit a candle.

A few minutes later, Zhang Kexin changed his clothes and walked out.

It may be that what happened just made her a little worried, so she changed into a set of cartoon pajamas with a very conservative style and wrapped herself tightly.

She sat down on the couch next to me, still blushing and not too embarrassed to look at me.

After a few seconds of silence, she looked at the small flame flickering on the coffee table and whispered, "I didn't expect you to buy candles." ”

"Otherwise, you can't keep the flash on, right?"

Zhang Kexin nodded, and then we fell into silence again.

There was a faint ambiguity in the air, and the two of us sat still, as if we wanted to say something to break the silence, but we didn't know what to say at such a time.

After a long time, Zhang Kexin was the first to speak.

"I'm sorry, uncle, I must be very tired if I bothered you to come here so late, and then let you climb such a high staircase......"

She bit her lip and looked at me apologetically.

"Why don't I pinch your legs for you?"

I quickly smiled and waved my hand, and said to her, "No, no, I'll just rest for a while, it's okay." ”

"Really?"

"Really, don't worry."

"Oh......"

Zhang Kexin lowered his head and gently played with his fingers.

After a few moments, she said to me in a very small voice, "Well, can you accompany me to the bathroom?" I was so scared just now that I didn't dare to ...... it."

I couldn't laugh or cry, but I went with her.

I lit a candle in the bathroom and stood in the doorway as a competent guard.

Zhang Kexin said sullenly inside: "Uncle, do you think I'm very stupid and stupid?" ”

I laughed unconsciously, and then said to her, "No." ”

"I heard you laugh, and you still said no, you must be thinking that!"

"Not really, I just think you're cute."

Zhang Kexin was not satisfied with my explanation, she snorted arrogantly and said to me: "I'm scared like this, what else is so cute." ”

I chatted with her for a while, and then I asked her how the report was doing.

She said that she had finished it and would come to the office tomorrow morning to show me.

I said that's not bad, it's pretty fast.

Zhang Kexin was a little proud, and his mood seemed to have improved.

When it was almost eleven o'clock, my mom called me and asked when I was going back, and I told her it was almost over. Then they lit all the candles they bought and placed them in different places.

After doing this, I said to Zhang Kexin: "You guys will call here at four o'clock tomorrow, these candles are enough to last until that time, you can sleep with confidence, even if you get up at night halfway, you don't have to worry." ”

Zhang Kexin blinked his big bright eyes, looked at me pitifully, and said, "Are you leaving?" ”

I nodded noncommittally and responded, "Well, I'm already rested, it's okay, you don't have to worry." ”

I smiled at her and got up to leave.

Zhang Kexin hurriedly stopped me and said ashamedly, "Can you not leave tonight?" I'm scared of ...... alone."

"Uh......"

I watched her bite her lip and felt like my whole brain was in a trance.

Although the cartoon pajamas she wears now are very conservative, no matter how conservative she is, she can't stop her bug-level figure.

The big place is still the same size, and it hasn't been affected in the slightest.

Coupled with her slightly shyly words, I really couldn't resist.

To be honest, at this time, it is difficult for any man not to think crookedly.

What the hell is this leading me to sin!

I blinked in a daze, trying to keep myself awake enough, and then calmly said to Zhang Kexin: "This is not appropriate......

"I know ......"

Zhang Kexin looked at me aggrievedly and said in a low voice: "But I really don't dare to stay at home alone now......"

"Then I can't sleep in the same bed with you, can I?"

"Of course not!"

I actually just said it casually, but I didn't expect Zhang Kexin's reaction to be quite big.

I was a little embarrassed, so I pouted and asked, "So where do I sleep?" Your home is like just a bed. ”

Zhang Kexin lowered his head slightly, bit his lip and said embarrassedly: "I can only wronged you to sleep on the sofa for one night, is it okay?" ”

Nima ......

It seems that Zhang Kexin is really just scared so she wants me to stay with her, she doesn't have any other ideas at all.

Even though I didn't expect anything, I still felt a little lost.

Zhang Kexin saw that I didn't speak, so she whispered another word to me.

"I just need to know you're still in my house, and then I'll feel at ease......"

I sighed against my forehead, and had no choice but to accede to her request.

I called my mother to explain, and then sent Zhang Kexin into the room.

I have to say, she really didn't have any defense against me, and I didn't understand why she trusted me so much. How can I put that feeling, as if I was her brother.

I felt a little irritated in my heart, and I didn't think much of it. Before she could fall asleep, I went back to the living room alone.

Originally, I was going to think about whether to cooperate with Mrs. L, but as a result, Zhang Kexin's various figures kept flashing in my mind. In the end, I had no choice but to close my eyes and choose to sleep.

I don't know when I fell asleep, but by the time I opened my eyes again, the morning sun had already poured in through the cracks in the curtains, and the candles on the coffee table had gone out.

I rubbed my sleepy eyes, and then I heard movement coming from the kitchen, as if someone was cooking.

I sat up in a daze and looked at my watch.

It's 7:18, and it's neither too early nor too late.

I moved my limbs briefly, then went into the kitchen to take a look.

Zhang Kexin put on an apron over her pajamas, and was bravely omelizing eggs in front of the stove at the moment.

On the plate next to it, there were several fried eggs, each of which was strangely shaped, giving me a feeling of misery.

Zhang Kexin seemed to be very attentive, she was still trying to fry the next egg, and she didn't notice me at all.

I sighed and said to her helplessly, "What are you doing?" ”

"Yikes! You're awake! Good morning, uncle! ”

Zhang Kexin smiled happily at me, and then said, "Wait a minute, I'll make breakfast right away." ”

I looked at the plate of fried eggs and twitched the corners of my mouth twice.

"Why don't I do it for you?"

"No, you can go and wait. As a token of my appreciation, I will make you a hearty breakfast today. ”

"Okay, then come on."

Coming out of the kitchen, I went to the bathroom to wash up, and then stood on the balcony and smoked.

I don't know why, just seeing Zhang Kexin making breakfast for me made me think of a lot of beautiful pictures in an instant.

Can I have that kind of life?

I spat out a cloud of smoke out the window, and I had mixed feelings.

At 7:46, Zhang Kexin's carefully prepared breakfast was finally ready.

Omelette, grilled sausage, hot milk, bread slices, very western breakfast.

I tasted it, and although it didn't taste very good, it was definitely not unpleasant.

Zhang Kexin said that this was the first time she had done this, and she got up at five o'clock in the morning to start preparing, going out to buy ingredients, and looking for tutorials in Baidu.

I was so touched when I heard it that I said thank you, it was the best breakfast I've ever had.

Zhang Kexin smiled very happily, she said that you can praise me more, I won't be proud.

After that I asked her what to do with those fried eggs?

She said throw it away.

I said, didn't you learn to hoe when you were a child? Such a waste.

She was a little aggrieved, saying that it was already fried, otherwise what else could she do?

I said, of course, I ate it.

Zhang Kexin didn't believe it at first, but when she saw that I really ate all those eggs little by little, she said to me with admiration: "Uncle, I really didn't expect you to have this kind of virtue." ”

I smiled and said, "Good people are like that." ”

After breakfast, Zhang Kexin went back to the room to touch up her makeup and change clothes.

A few minutes later, she walked out in a tight OL skirt and changed into thin black stockings on her legs.

I subconsciously looked at it a few more times, and then I unconsciously associated a lot of wonderful pictures.

At this time, Zhang Kexin walked over to me, looked at me curiously and said, "Uncle, what do you want, so happy?" ”
