The Gray Age Chapter 100 Decisions

() Maggie and I were both reclining on the couch, enjoying the moment of peace.

"Knock knock.."

"Mr. Qi, Miss Maggie, your lunch has arrived."

There was a knock at the door, and a woman's voice was heard.

"The salary of great scientists is really high, and there are people who bring food to them."

Maggie said to me with a little joking.

"What a scientist, just a little researcher."

I was a little embarrassed to say.

Not really, right? What kind of treatment is this? Delivering food to the door, we don't have to pick up the food at all, and Paula's company is really enough.

With that in mind, I walked to the door and opened it.

"Mr. Qi, please take care of me when we meet for the first time. I'm the one in charge of delivering your meals, you can call me Xiao Ai, and I'll take care of your daily life. ”

Pretty! It's really good-looking! I was greeted by a small, delicate face, and I always felt as if I had seen it on TV. The woman wore a maid's outfit, yes, a maid's outfit, pushing a dining cart, and stood at my door very respectfully saying something that stunned me. But I could feel the helplessness and unwillingness hidden in her heart when she said these words.

"Thank you, but..."

I'm a little blindsided. I just wanted to thank you and said that we don't need you to take care of it, but I was interrupted by Maggie in the middle of the sentence.

"We don't need your care, we're not disabled."

Mei Qi didn't know when she rushed to my side, staring at the woman named Xiao Ai in front of her. After saying that, he glared at me fiercely.

"I'm sorry Miss Maggie, but if I do something wrong, please forgive me! I'm sorry! ”

Xiao Ai saw that Meiqi was menacing, and immediately lowered his head and quickly admitted his mistake.

"I didn't mean to target you, there is nothing else to trouble you in the future except for delivering food."

Xiao Ai had this attitude before the meeting, and Maggie couldn't be tough all of a sudden, and her attitude of speaking was much more relaxed.

"Well, just give us the food, thank you."

I can't stand it anymore, in order to alleviate the embarrassment, it's better to hurry up and take the food and leave!

"Happy dining!"

After Xiao Ai finally finished talking to us, he pushed the dining cart to the next room.

"I was blindsided just now, I didn't expect it!"

Back in the house, I held a simple lunch box in both hands and spread out my hands to show my innocence, hoping that Maggie would not cut me. After all, in my heart, I also wanted to refuse, but before I could refuse, Maggie had already refused for me, although the tone was so blunt.

"Are you still feeling distressed?"

Maggie's eyes were perceptive, as if she wanted to detect something strange in my subtle expressions or body movements.

"What do I feel sorry for?"

At this time, as long as you don't want to die, you won't fall into Maggie's trap. So I quickly pretended to be stupid.

"Oh? Is she pretty? ”

Maggie continued to throw me a second proposition.

"Not pretty, not pretty."

My head shook like a rattle.

"Nonsense! What kind of aesthetic do you have? She's obviously beautiful! ”

Maggie heard my answer, and her voice suddenly rose an octave, pressing towards me!

"I... I..."

I didn't expect my straight male cancer to attack at this time, and I was speechless for a while. I can't figure out what Maggie's routine is.

"Huh.. Fun for you! You too

What a fool! ”

Maggie suddenly chuckled and changed to a different expression, which made me scratch my head.

"I know you'll refuse, but you should think it's unnecessary, it's not."

Maggie took the lunch box from me, then turned to me as she walked towards the table.

"What do you mean?"

I'm kind of out of my breath at Majestic Pace.

"Paula's company is a pervasive organization, so don't trust them easily at any time, this Xiao Ai is likely to be the one who monitors our every move. There may not be a need for surveillance at all, but are you willing to live under someone else's nose? That's why I said it coldly. ”

Maggie sat on a stool, unwrapped the lids of both lunch boxes, and spoke her mind.

"That's right..."

I sat thoughtfully on another stool, ready to enjoy this "hard-won" lunch.

An enticing aroma hits the face, not to mention, it's really hearty enough. Stir-fried pork with green peppers, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, shredded pork with fish flavor, and enough white rice to eat. Although this level of boxed lunch before the end of the world can only be regarded as relatively ordinary, but now that food is so scarce, Paula's company is quite capable of coming up with such meals.

"Yes! That's a great treatment, isn't it? Huh? Why don't you eat it? ”

A chopsticks of fish-flavored shredded pork, and a large mouthful of white rice, I have to say, it's so fragrant! But Maggie didn't move her chopsticks for a long time.

"Mrs. Chen and her children didn't eat either..."

Maggie muttered softly, as if thinking about something.

I was chewing a lot and suddenly stopped, as if I didn't think it was good right now.

"Heihei, let's give them this box."

Maggie didn't deliver the meal directly to Mrs. Chen's room, but looked up to me for advice.

"Okay, let's just eat a box."

I agreed with Maggie to do so.

"Knock knock..."

"Mrs. Chen?"

Maggie refastened the lunch box in her hand, walked to the bedroom door and knocked on it.

A few seconds later, Mrs. Chan opened the door.

"Miss Maggie, is there something going on?"

Mrs. Chan was a little nervous.

It's no wonder that their mother and daughter have just experienced the dilemma of being expelled, and now they are frightened birds, for fear that Maggie and I will change our minds and let them leave here.

"Mrs. Chen, you and the child are hungry, this is for you to eat."

Maggie said, handing the lunch box forward.

"Miss Maggie, we can't ask for this, we already owe you a favor, how can we trouble you again?"

Mrs. Chen hurriedly waved her hand and refused.

"Sister Meiqi, do you have anything to eat?"

At this time, Vivi, who had been sitting on the bed, trotted to the door, raised her head and looked at Maggie with wide eyes.

"That's right, this is for you, come, take it into the house and eat it."

Maggie showed a gentle little face and handed the lunch box in her hand to Weiwei's hand.

"Vivi! It's not for us to eat! Change to Miss Maggie! ”

When Mrs. Chen saw this, she was willing to agree, so she took the lunch box in Weiwei's hand and returned it to Meiqi.

"Mrs. Chen! Don't let it go anymore, we still have food, and if you don't agree, then I can't let you stay here. ”

I also came over at this time and pretended to threaten Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen no longer argued with us, but stood helplessly

land, not knowing what to do.

"Look, Weiwei is already hungry, take it in and eat, don't starve the child."

My tone was kind again.

Mrs. Chen looked at Wei Wei with some chagrin, but she was helpless. After all, when the child is hungry, what mother is not in a hurry?

"Thank you, Mr. Qi, thank you so much. You are the benefactor of our mother and daughter! ”

At this point, all Mrs. Chan can do is thank me.

"You're welcome, that's what I'm supposed to do."

I said righteously.

"You're good at borrowing flowers to offer Buddha? Could it be that you and Prime Minister Cao Cheng have the same fetishes, right? ”

Back in my seat, I was about to push the boxed lunch in front of me in front of Maggie and let her eat it first, but who would have thought that Maggie actually came to say this. I understand the first half of the sentence, but the second half of the sentence...

"How is that possible?! Where do you want to go? Eat it while it's hot! ”

I suddenly understood what Maggie meant by the second half of her sentence, and I couldn't help but feel a chill...

I have to say, it feels good to do good. But although it is enjoyable to do good deeds, but then I am really hungry, I looked at the lunch box that had just been pushed in front of Maggie, and swallowed my saliva. Maggie also deliberately pretended not to see, and kept chewing slowly, I was embarrassed to say anything, and I was anxious to scratch my ears and cheeks for a while.

"Look at your bear-like appearance, give it to you, I lose weight, I don't have to eat too much."

Maggie finally pushed the lunch box in front of me.

"You take two more bites, when are you still thinking about losing weight."

I was embarrassed when she said this, and I shirked it in a fake way.

"Yes, how do I think that if I don't lose weight, someone's soul will be snatched away by Xiao Ai?"

Maggie said in a strange tone. It's waiting for me here!

"How is that possible? How can my soul be snatched away? Besides, didn't you say it all? It could be Paula's eyeliner, but I'm not stupid enough to do that. ”

I have answered this proposition perfectly.

"Then you mean. . . If that little Ai wasn't Paula's eyeliner, your soul would have been snatched away? ”

Maggie looked at me with interest.

"This... Come on, eat an egg..."

I decided to remain silent, or change the subject. I really can't figure it out.

Maggie's beautiful eyes kept staring at me, as if she wanted to see me ugly.

"Oops..."

I pretended not to see and handed the egg to Maggie's mouth.

Meiqi finally opened her mouth and ate the egg, and now I can finally eat more comfortably, and I don't have to look at Meiqi's face anymore, even if this is over.

In a few minutes, I swept away all the food. It's not so much about sweeping the light as it is about letting the general and the cerebellar axe lick it clean. About half of the food in the lunch box was eaten by these two guys, and I could only count it as a tooth sacrifice.

It seems that the Paula Company ostensibly left Mrs. Chen's mother and daughter, but did not provide them with shelter and food, which was clearly to force their mother and daughter to leave here. Even if we take them in temporarily, it's just a stopgap measure. What should I do after that?

Two people will not be able to eat enough food after all, and their bodies will only get weaker and weaker, and eventually they will become the same as those hungry survivors in the living quarters. What will we do in the next few days?

I kept thinking about these problems in my head, but there was no better solution. For a while, he fell into a dilemma.
