Chapter Seventy-Four: Fake Boyfriend
A red Cayenne drove on the bridge across the river, and then suddenly it staggered and almost drove into the river.
"What's wrong with you?" Finally stabilizing the steering wheel, Anna Song, who was in shock, stared at me with her incredulous gaze at me who almost screwed the car door on the bridge.
And I looked back at her with even more incredible eyes, and the excitement of almost falling into the river was not as shocking as the words that Song Anna had just spoken.
"Say it again." I was stunned.
"What's wrong with you?" Anna looked at me strangely, then got back on the road.
I shook my head and said, "Last." ”
“··· Temporarily when I'm my boyfriend. Song Anna hesitated for a moment, repeated the sentence unspeakably, and then immediately added: "It's just temporary!" Fake, you know? ”
“··· You're kidding. "I can't imagine that someone who wants me to cut off my past in the morning would ask me to pretend to be her boyfriend at night," I don't want to lie. ”
"It's not a good thing for you, and it won't be long, as long as it's my grandfather's birthday, you can go back with me to meet them." Song Anna explained to me as she drove the car, "I won't treat you badly materially, but you also have to put yourself in a clear position and don't have any unrealistic ideas." ”
"Don't say it, I've already promised it, okay?" I propped my temples with my fingers, and at this time I didn't dwell with Anna Song about the fact that her grandfather might not be able to wake up, "I can't do this kind of deceptive thing." ”
"Then when I hire you to protect me, that's fine, right?" Song Anna rolled her eyes, as if she was too lazy to compete with me, "The ghost who hurt me was sent away by you, but the person who wanted to kill me has not been found." I may still be in danger, so I'll pay you to be a bodyguard, as long as someone asks who you are, it's okay to say it's my boyfriend. ”
“··· Isn't it still the same? I shook my head slightly, I don't really have a very strong idea about money.
If it weren't for the family's eagerness to use the money this time, I might not have accepted the old man's commission. However, the matter of the sorcerer she said was indeed a trouble, and if this kind of thing was not fundamentally solved, Song Anna would still be in danger sooner or later.
“··· Okay, I promise you. Finally, I nodded.
Anna Song glanced at me with some uneasiness, and emphasized again: "This is a deal, you know. ”
"Yes, yes, I don't have any unrealistic thoughts about Miss Song." I couldn't help but roll my eyes.
Song Anna was satisfied, and then according to my instructions, she drove into Ximen Street and stopped at No. 101, in front of a well-dressed shop.
It was still early, just 10 o'clock, and I had plenty of time to prepare slowly.
The moonlight was slightly cool, sprinkled on the streets of the old long street, and the night breeze blew a little confetti on the street.
"A piece of paper... What a strange name. Song Anna parked her car and looked at the four ancient characters on the plaque, "What does this store sell?" ”
"Sell some paper-tied things, such as paper people, paper horses, paper money, etc." I explained it a little, after all, I can't tell others intuitively that this is a paper shop.
As expected, after hearing that the store was selling these things, Song Anna's expression became a little unnatural, and said, "Why do you work in such a gloomy place..."
"Because... The salary is high, 4,000 a month! "I recalled that it was Sun Hong's dead old man who used 4,000 a month as a guise to lure me into the other side of this bizarre world.
But after hearing my words, Song Anna was speechless for a while, sat on the car cover and said, "With this amount of money, it's worth your midnight store to work?" The check I gave you is enough for you to work for the rest of your life. ”
I turned around, looked at her helplessly, and said, "This is the life of ordinary people in the market, Miss Song." By the way, don't go yet, I have something for you. ”
With that, I unlocked the door and walked in through the side door. Opening the main entrance is to open a store, in case a passerby comes early, it will scare Song Anna half to death.
Since I promised to be Song Anna's bodyguard temporarily, especially if I got the money, I have to have the consciousness of being a bodyguard.
In the evening, I had to go back to Yiyi to open the shop, and this was also the time when the ghosts were most likely to haunt Anna.
I remembered that there was a divine artifact in the warehouse that could have the effect of protecting oneself, and it was not like the Offering God Tower and the Purple Seal, which needed to be performed on the spot, as long as there were ghosts close to me, it would play a passive role.
"Where... Ah, found it. "I found a string of red ropes braided together in the mountains of divine artifacts in the warehouse, and the red ropes were strung with seven jades, although they were not very eye-catching, they could respond to the seven stars and exert the effect of a small seven-star array.
I took it back to the street, and Anna Song seemed to be a little unaccustomed to this cold environment, and had already returned to the car, and only pressed the window when she saw me come out.
"What is this?" She looked at me with some confusion and took out the red rope, "It's rustic." ”
"Although it looks earthy, it has a protective effect." I told her my considerations, and Anna Song seemed to think of something, nodded, and then stretched out her wrist, which was as white as jade.
I put it on her wrist for her and told her, "This thing can't see blood, and if it touches blood, it won't work." ”
"Got it, how can I see blood?" Song Anna said impatiently, raising her wrist in front of her eyes and looking around, as if she was not satisfied with how she looked.
I raised an eyebrow and playfully added, "I mean, you don't want to go into the kitchen." ”
Song Anna obviously understood at once that I was referring to her three cuts in three minutes, and she was immediately angry and anxious, snorted heavily, and then rolled up the window and rode away.
I couldn't help but laugh a little, but then a question came to my mind, damn, that thousand paper cranes with folded checks are still in her car!
"Forget it, we'll meet again soon anyway." I shook my head a little helplessly, I really didn't expect that the absurdity of that night three years ago would continue to be a bad relationship now.
But things often come unexpectedly.
Early the next morning, at the end of the night's business, my phone rang like a loudspeaker while napping in the lounge chair in the back hall.
I pressed it twice in a daze, and the caller was still persevering, and I really took it.
"Who..." I was woken up by the phone as soon as I fell asleep, not to mention how bad my spirit was, I didn't want to open my eyes at all, I finally touched the phone, and I opened it half-asleep, and before I could say 'Hey', a roaring sound directly scared Zhou Gong away.
"Lin-Shao! You dare to hang up on me, and hang up twice! ”
“···” I silently hung up the phone and turned my head back to sleep.
It's definitely a dream.
This time, the phone stopped ringing, and the door slammed as if it was going to be smashed.
"Miss, can you spare me, what time is it?" When I dragged myself out of bed, put on my clothes and opened the door a crack, Song Anna broke in in a rage, and put the thing in her hand on the table with a bang.
"It's 6:50, and everyone who has a chance has already gotten up to go to work and class!"
“··· I bet you're talking about someone who doesn't sleep until 4:50. I couldn't help but yawn, then stretched, and then pressed down my messy hair, and then I got up to look at what Anna Song had brought.
"What is this?"
I glanced up at her, and then I realized that Anna Song didn't seem to be in good spirits either, and even though she was wearing light yellow sunglasses, I could see that there were dark circles under her eyes.
"Soy sauce soup!" Seeing me look up, Song Anna stiffened a yawn, then opened the soup box she brought and pushed a bowl of steaming soy sauce soup in front of me, "Drink!" ”
···?
"What are you doing here?" I don't know if it's because of poor sleep or something else, but now I feel like my brain hurts for a while.
"Isn't it just a bowl of soup, what's the big deal, I'll make it too." Song Anna snorted, and the words she said made me cry and laugh a little, feeling that this is a joke I said last night?
"There's no blood, is it?" I asked, looking for the spoon. After all, people specially brought it, and it would be rude not to drink it.
Song Anna said dissatisfiedly: "Are you a child for me?" I'm careful. ”
"Well, that's the best, after all, there aren't many of them." I said that I found the spoon, but before I drank the soup, to be on the safe side, I asked again, "Miss didn't make a mistake about salt and MSG this time, did she?" ”
“··· If you don't drink it again, I'll pour it directly into your throat! Song Anna's face turned blue and red, and she simply threatened in a vicious voice.
I shrugged my shoulders, scooped a piece of tofu mixed with the soup, and put it in my mouth.
Then, I put down the spoon again, and I woke up completely.
"Miss, can I ask, what did you put in it, one by one?" I asked with a calm face.
"I deliberately took the salt away, it can't be salt, how can you... This expression? Seeing my expression, Anna Song's eyebrows also furrowed.
You just took the salt away and put the sugar away!
I took a deep breath and silently picked up the spoon, although it was sugar, at least not to the point where I couldn't eat it.
"You didn't come here to bring me soup, did you?" I forced myself to swallow the sweet soup as I diverted my attention from talking to Anna Song.
Song Anna also sat down, took off her glasses, rubbed her temples and said, "Of course not, but by the way." Later, I'm going to take you to a party, and the guy who summoned me will definitely go too. That bastard, you help me get him out! ”
