Chapter 43: Start Here (2)

"Mr. Wu, are you there?"

Chi Lei knocked lightly on the door a few times, then rubbed her hands together and walked back and forth outside the door to breathe on her hands. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 After more than ten seconds, she knocked again and said, "Mr. Wu, are you there?" ”

"Please come in, the door is not closed."

"Thanks, I'll come in."

Then the sound sounded, and the iron door made a "lattice" metallic mechanical sound. Chi Lei opened the door and twisted her heels on the red blanket to take off her high heels. Then, at the end of a red carpet about a square meter in size, she pulled out a pair of slippers with her feet on the floor of a seamless patch of white tiles and put them on.

"Mr. Wu, are you still reading books?"

"Well, can you wait a minute? Right away. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll wait for Luo." Chi Lei walked across a partition wall, and immediately saw Wu Xiaoyu who was leaning on the sofa with his hands on his knees and his eyes closed, admitting that he was "reading".

When people close their eyes and pose in this resting pose, they will unconsciously show peace and serenity. Wu Xiaoyu always has a slight line on his forehead, which makes people know at a glance that the question he is thinking about is quite brain-intensive. This is almost the only expression that Chi Lei can find on Wu Xiaoyu's face. In addition, she still remembers that the only place where Wu Xiaoyu can be seen in this floor of the house is often on the sofa in the center of the living room; Every time he is here, no matter what posture Wu Xiaoyu is, what comes out of his mouth is definitely "I'm reading".

If he was lying on the couch, it would take about another two or three minutes before he got up. Chi Lei thought, she tilted her head and used her tail fingers to pull the hair on both sides of her ears behind her ears. Then, she lowered her hands and propped herself up on another sofa on Wu Xiaoyu's side. Even in winter, she wore a low-necked black sweater without any floral patterns, and outside the sweater, the girl was wearing a short pale yellow down jacket today.

In this location, the entire living room is within Chi Lei's line of sight. Directly opposite her was a large glass window closed with a thin gauze curtain. Through it, the girl could see the red, yellow and green bushes of gold-leafed privet, red oak and rhododendrons on the side of the sidewalk downstairs; Vehicles can be seen coming and going on the levee avenue; You can even see diesel fumes coming from the tail of a fishing boat in the Liuyang River in the distance.

The living room, with three white walls and a partition wall, is spacious, but apart from three pale yellow sofas and a glass table in the center, there are only a few unnamed plants on the other side. It's clear that both the homeowner and Mr. Wu like the minimalist design style.

The ceiling, which had been similarly simply decorated, was fitted with several different lamps, and now, as the girl had seen at any other time when she had entered, except for an incandescent lamp at the top of the wall on one side of the TV wall.

It's busy working day and night, and it's an incandescent lamp that never goes out. Everyone has reminded or asked young bosses about this. He answered everyone, and Chi Lei remembered that the answer he gave himself was a smile, an ugly and even sad smile, and an equally simple answer for everyone: "I read all night." ”

How is this possible? Everyone said that, but because of that smile, no one could bear to ask a second time. It's just that except for Bai Jiaquan, a wooden man who is difficult to talk and doesn't like to talk, even Brother Li Hui, who doesn't joke easily, will guess the real reason with them.

Such a spacious and beautiful living room, although Chi Lei has never seen the lights off, but look at the view outside the window, or look at the lighting of other rooms, you will know that the living room must be very bright during the day; And although it is rented, no matter how bad it is, it is impossible to break into the appearance that you can't turn off the lights.

Chi Lei disagreed with their various and whimsical speculations. However, she was not as inquisitive as she appeared on the surface, and in her mind, she was just as determined to "not turn off the lights" and "smile sadly" to her woman's instincts: because there was one less mistress in the house.

There are other circumstances that can help her confirm this.

On the whole, this floor of the house can still be evaluated with the last hint of praise as neither dirty nor messy.

This kind of evaluation can barely be maintained for a few more days.

After a few days, anyone who doesn't need to be as careful as Chi Lei, or who doesn't need to look at the room for some reason, can find that except for the side of the road from the sofa to the bedroom, the rest of the place, including the side by the window, is evenly covered with a thin layer of dust.

First of all, it can prove that Mr. Wu is indeed busy reading books all day long, so addicted that he does not waste a little time, even if he is active in the living room, or just walks a few steps to the window to look at the scenery outside; It can also make even first-time visitors see that since Mr. Wu moved here, there has been no such thing as cleaning in this room.

Do you want to help clean it? But what if he misunderstands me? Besides, I don't know where the broom is. The girl pursed her lips and frowned as she sneaked a quick glance around the living room.

It's good that there isn't. With complicated thoughts, Chi Lei breathed a sigh of relief.

I'm not the kind of woman who sticks it up. She thought, though the house was big and beautiful; Although Xiaoyu looks young and rich; Although he is very likable in appearance, his temperament seems to be very reassuring.

But......

But......

But in case Xiaoyu buys this floor of the house, she must make me the hostess of this house, and it is very tiring to clean such a large room!

What with what? Chi Lei herself also felt that it was unreasonable to veto Xiaoyu with such a reason that she found in a hurry, but girls are born with the right to be unreasonable.

She took this thought as a summary of her thoughts, because she had been paying attention, Wu Xiaoyu, who was lying on the sofa, had already clenched his hands into fists, and the twitching of the corners of his eyes had increased slightly.

He's about to get up! Each time, this sign causes the same ambiguous thoughts. Then, every time, Chi Lei's cheeks would be dyed a little crimson, as if her inner thoughts had been peeped at by the bad guy lying down, and she laughed at it.

Wu Xiaoyu suddenly closed her eyes forcefully, and the girl was supporting the other sofa on Wu Xiaoyu's side with both hands. She quickly lowered her head to look at her low-necked black sweater, quickly lifted it up, thought about it and pressed it down; I took a small step forward, thought about it, and took a big half step back.

Oops, it seems to be tilting too much. She didn't have time to regret it, Wu Xiaoyu had already opened her eyes. But it was obvious that her thoughts were completely in vain, Wu Xiaoyu stood up and glanced at her, and asked, "Chi Lei, is it time to eat?" ”

"Yes, Brother Li Hui said that he will have dinner soon."

"Thank you for calling me", Wu Xiaoyu bent down and closed the book on the glass table and sandwiched it under his ribs, "Let's go, let's go down to eat." ”

"Yes." Chi Lei nodded, although she was not noticed at all, she still hung her little head slightly shyly. This happened to make her careful find that Wu Xiaoyu walked very interestingly, and every step happened to be on the path that she had taken when she left the living room last time, and her shoes did not touch the dust next to the footprints at all.

As Wu Xiaoyu walked around, Chi Lei finally set her eyes on the rest of the house except for the living room. The room near the hallway leading to the kitchen was closed. This has always made her very curious, in Chi Lei's impression, Wu Xiaoyu never seems to close the iron door of the house, and never closes the door of other rooms, including the bedroom, but this room has never been opened, and she has never seen it once.

Maybe it's because it's been too long, or maybe it's because it's been too disappointed, in short, Chi Lei's mind about it is much lighter than at first. She leaned back on the couch and turned slowly, the living room and dining room connected to each other, and at the end of them were four dark red staircases, which crossed them and went up, where the floor became a wooden floor similar to the color of the steps.

From the angle where Chi Lei is, you can just see most of the room on the right. It was Wu Xiaoyu's bedroom, with a large double bed in it, the sheets were white and clean, and the quilt was neat and neat. It's hard to imagine that someone like Wu Xiaoyu, who never cleans the living room, would make the bedroom so clean.

It even looks as if no one has ever slept in it.

At this time, Wu Xiaoyu walked to the dining table, he picked up the big cup next to the water dispenser, turned around and asked Chi Lei, who was looking at the bedroom, "Do you want to drink water?" ”

"No thanks."

This is the same question that Chi Lei hears every time she comes up, so she is not surprised to watch Wu Xiaoyu pour the three major glasses of water into the cup in one go, and then into her stomach in turn.

"I'm going to change the book." Wu Xiaoyu put down the cup and said this, and after speaking, he stepped on the dark red stairs and stepped into the room next to the bedroom in a few steps.

There is a real study there, and the three walls are completely replaced by bookcases. Chi Lei didn't know how many books could fit in the whole room, but she had put a little effort into the layout of the study, when several people stuffed the books in two large cardboard boxes into the bookcase, but only filled a small half of one bookcase.

Although there were still two bookcases completely empty, the boss was still too little, and the first thing he did on the night of the move was to erect several bookshelves taller than a person in the center of the study.

Chi Lei was still thinking about this interesting incident in the past few days, Wu Xiaoyu had already walked out of the study, the book he was holding under his ribs had obviously been replaced, but he did not go down the stairs, but turned directly to the right, that is, to the left of Chi Lei, and entered the room that she thought was the least suitable for this level of housing.

The house was littered with a number of broken computers, one of which seemed to be showing off its full functionality to its poor companions, and every time it came up, it would hear its annoying buzzing sound.

In the future, this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to be left in the house, Chi Lei, who followed Wu Xiaoyu downstairs, thought to herself.

Fortunately, Chi Lei's idea did not add the word "again" in a certain position.
