【022】Panic in the middle of the night

Just because he was drunk, he couldn't do anything. The store is temporarily managed by Wengen, and Vanilla and Xu Qian are fully responsible for family affairs.

Zhong Kui's drunken purpose, when lying down in Zhong Kui's temple, his brain is like a player. Back and forth, layer upon layer, playing back and forth about the unbearable past. The stage when he is most nostalgic for being with Ran Qin, every time he is deeply trapped in it, he can't extricate himself!

Xu Qian has to take care of Zhong Kui and secretly spy on the abnormalities of the vanilla. Another full moon night came, and she didn't dare to sleep, so she squinted her eyes and watched the vanilla's movements in a motionless posture.

The sound of squirming came, and Xu Qian was extremely nervous. I felt that the bed was moving, and for a while, without hearing the slightest sound of footsteps, with the help of the bright moonlight outside the window. A dark shadow, a stiff posture stood under the window.

Xu Qian leaned over, wanting to see if it was vanilla. The dense darkness looked very strange against the backdrop of the miserable white moonlight. A touch of cold that penetrated deep into the bone marrow, with the sneaky cold wind, blew gently on her raised cheeks...... It seems to be a very real sensation of artificiality, the feeling of the wind sliding on the face. Hiss! Subconsciously trembling, his eyes locked on the window...... That cold shadow, I don't know when it's gone.

Retracting slightly, his gaze adjusting to the dark and nervous stare again, Vanilla slept on the bunk. When her eyes fluttered, Xu Qian's whole person was stunned as if she had been struck by lightning.

Where will this dark midnight vanilla go? Do you want to tell Zhong Kui in the store about them? Thinking of the shadows of the trees swaying in the wind under the bright moonlight, Xu Qian felt a sense of fear in her heart. I couldn't help but pull the futon tightly, and my body couldn't help but burrow into the gentle futon......

The idea was to huddle in the futon and wait for a while to see if the vanilla went to the toilet or something. But once people are in the night, they don't naturally feel tired, so they hug the futon and are confused, and the comfort of lying on the bunk brings Xu Qian to sleep.

The fresh morning air, as the breeze blows through the open window, carries with it the chirping of birds in the distant woods. Originally, there were many tenants in the courtyard, but when Zhong Kui and the others went to Backwater Bay, the tenants walked away, and those who returned to their hometowns returned to their hometowns, and there were not many people left who insisted on not leaving.

At this time of the year, the courtyard dam was the most lively. The bad old man with a birdcage in one hand behind his back hummed a small tune in his mouth and walked with a steady step. Walking all the way early, greedy, timid sniffing, breathing the unique fresh breath of the early morning.

There is also a child in elementary school who has to be scolded by his parents because he doesn't want to get up early because he is lazy. I got up lazily and procrastinated, washed my face and rinsed my mouth, picked up my schoolbag, held a hot steamed bun in my mouth, lowered my head and slipped away in front of my parents' eyes.

The aunt in the courtyard started a small business of making wontons before Zhong Kui and the others left the county. Often, when she got up early, she pushed out a four-wheeled wheel, which creaked and creaked through the yard. The car is loaded with chaotic skin and fresh meat filling, and the aunt will not stop until the car is pushed to the gate, which will alarm many people who are sleeping soundly in their dreams along the way.

The quietness of the courtyard dam made Xu Qian unaccustomed to it, and it also made vanilla unaccustomed to it.

Xu Qian got up and was surprised to see that the vanilla was still curled up in the futon. After frowning and thinking about it secretly, the scene of last night naturally came to mind.

Leaning over to look at Vanilla, who was sleeping sweetly, a strand of natural curly hair casually resting on her full forehead, and the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned and playful. Her well-behaved appearance, no matter how she looks at it or thinks about it, she can't let Xu Qian associate the cold back she saw last night with her.

Could it be something else? That shadow last night was I blinded by the mistake? Or is it a coincidence that the thief got in and didn't see it for himself? Besides, Zhong Kui and their big house, there are few people living in it, and it is already gloomy, and it is normal for thieves to get in.

Maybe you feel someone watching you, vanilla in her sleep, her eyelids moving slightly. Then he opened his eyes slowly and reluctantly, and saw at a glance that Xu Qian was looking at himself in a bird's-eye posture.

was very surprised, didn't wake up, and said in a surprised tone: "Sister Xu Qian, why are you getting up early?" As he spoke, he looked away at the window, "Uh! It's dawn...... Oh......"

"I ...... Just woke up! Xu Qian said in disguise, hurriedly retracted her gaze, and changed the topic: "Or boil porridge and send it to them?" As he spoke, the man lifted the bedding.

"Well, Sister Xu Qian's skills in making porridge are getting better and better, and it is better to reduce the appropriate amount of mung beans." Vanilla yawned lazily, and her body didn't move, as if she didn't want to get up yet.

"Well, you sleep a little longer, and I'll make porridge."

When Xu Qian left, she glanced at the shoes that vanilla placed in front of the shop very casually. The shoes were wet and muddy at the edges, as if they had walked a long way up the mountain......

The fox's suspicious gaze fell on the shoes, and he chuckled in his heart, and couldn't help but turn his head to look back at the vanilla who had closed his eyes and slept again. The doubts increased sharply in my heart, and I couldn't alarm others for a while, so I could only find out the truth by myself.

Thinking like this, she pretended to be nothing, going in and out to clean the house, boiling porridge and many other tedious household chores. At this moment, Xu Qian is completely like a housewife in charge, she is pampered and takes care of everything in the house. In the days that followed, Vanilla was idle, and when she had nothing to do, she went to the mountains to pick herbs and continue to be her barefoot doctor.

Ghost hunting specialty store reopened. Very few buyers come to Zhong Kui to do things, so Wen Gen, who stays in the store, also has nothing to do and reads books all day long, pestering Zhong Kui to play backgammon.

When Zhong Kui is not drinking, he is very sober, and he is impeccable in both speaking and acting. Once you drink, it's like a different person, which makes Vanilla and Xu Qian feel very strange.

This state of confusion and staring continued until another major event occurred later, and his sanity was finally in a semi-collapsed stage. So apart from Zhong Kui's difficulty in accepting the fact that Ran Qin is married for a while, what other major events can hit him to collapse?

It all started with the change in vanilla's bodily functions. Remember one time when she didn't take the bus and met a man who thought badly about her?

When the man touched her, he was as cold as if he had come out of an ice cellar. The problem is that vanilla itself cannot control this period of bodily change. She was a girl, and every few days of the month, she was quietly taking an herb.

Because during those few days, she felt a very strange phenomenon in herself. That is to have an unquenchable thirst, a thirst for blood...... As the craving deepened, the blood in the body seemed to freeze, from the bone marrow to the outer layer of skin.

She was scared, but she didn't dare to tell anyone, including Zhong Kui, about it.

Over time, this feeling grows day by day. So when Wengen mentioned that he wanted to marry her, she was irritable and didn't know what to do.
