Chapter 20: Interlude
Chapter 20: Interlude
Shure cautiously pushed open the door and found that it was also pitch black inside, and Yu Chuxi did not turn on the lights.
"Hey." He shouted tentatively, but still no one paid any attention to him.
"In the absence of... Ouchβ" he asked, but he tripped over something under his feet, and he almost fell into the mud.
Only then did he see what was on it in the twilight that was faintly cast outside.
It's not an exaggeration to say it's a mess, there are books everywhere on the floor, on the bed, on the table, scattered everywhere.
"Are you a thief?" Shure muttered, but his eyes kept searching for Yu Chuxi's location, and finally found the girl in the corner against the wall on the other side of the bed.
"What are you doing here?" He asked with a frown, puzzled.
The girl didn't speak, she seemed to try to curl herself up into a small ball, her face buried between her knees, her hands covering her ears, and her body trembling uncontrollably.
"Hey, are you alright?" Shure frowned, worry in his eyes.
Thundered.
A flash of lightning struck, followed by a deafening thunderclap.
Yu Chuxi closed his eyes tightly and let out a painful scream.
Shure didn't have time to react at all, and was dazed for a few seconds after hearing Yu Chuxi's scream, and before he could say anything, the girl suddenly fell to the ground-
She fainted.
Shure panicked all of a sudden, squatted down, and poked the girl's body with his fingers: "What's the matter with you?" Don't scare me! You talk, hey! β
The girl was motionless, and only the slight undulating body could prove that the girl was still alive.
"Alive, alive." Shure breathed a sigh of relief, and then couldn't help but mutter, "It's good that I just fainted, otherwise if something really happens, that ice cube face will definitely be holding me again." β
He looked at the girl lying on the ground, his brows were tightly knit, and finally, he sighed, picked up the girl, carefully put her on the bed, and covered her with a quilt intimately.
In her unconscious sleep, the girl was still unstable, her whole face was still wrinkled, her lips had lost their color, and her sideburns broke out in a lot of cold sweat.
"Why did you faint all of a sudden?" Shure looked at the girl puzzled and sighed, "It seems that the porcelain doll in the company has a problem when you touch it." β
He was filming in the company today, and he learned a lot about the strange things on Earth.
For example, the porcelain doll, he saw it in the corner of the company, but when he wanted to touch it, he was stopped by Xiaorui in time, and was told that this thing was very expensive and fragile, so frightened that he quickly withdrew his fingers.
For example, he found that earthlings are really wastewood, have no abilities, and are as fragile as ceramic dolls.
"Hmm," the girl sighed.
Shure subconsciously looked over, and the girl unconsciously tugged at the sheets under her in her sleep, and the knuckles of her grip turned white and did not let go.
He hesitated for a few seconds, but cautiously leaned over, put his hand over the girl's hand, and patted it gently. said softly: "Hey, don't you hold it so tightly, doesn't it hurt?" β
The girl did not answer him, but muttered.
"I didn't see anything..."
"It's not me..."
"Mom and Dad..."
"Where are you... Look at me... Help me..."
Shuer's brows furrowed even more as he listened to her words before and after, and he shook the girl's body: "Wake up, what are you talking about?" Wake up. β
Yu Chuxi became more and more uneasy, and finally bounced up from the bed and said loudly: "Mom and Dad, save me!" β
"You're awake!"
Almost at the same time, after Shure finished shouting these words, Yu Chuxi sat up from the bed.
The rushing showers stopped as soon as they said so, and only the sound of small raindrops gradually faded away.
She gasped for air, the pain in her eyes hadn't dissipated, and there was a little more nervousness and vigilance in her eyes when she looked at Shure.
Shure stretched out his right hand and shook it in front of her eyes, "It's me, the one who borrowed your whistle." β
There was a little more ignorance in her dark eyes, and after a few seconds, she reacted and nodded, and her voice was like a mosquito: "Hmm." I remember. β
"It's good to remember, it's good to remember." Shure grinned, remembering that it would have been almost impossible for him to get the whistle back.
"Something?" Yu Chuxi looked at him and asked.
Yes, he has recovered and become a person who cherishes words like gold.
Shure sighed inwardly and said, "I just came back from outside, and I wanted to ask you if you wanted to eat, but as soon as I came in, I found you huddled in that corner screaming, and then you fainted, and I carried you to the bed." Got it? β
Yu Chuxi took a few seconds to digest what Shure said, and then nodded: "Understood." β
Shure nodded: "Now that you understand, why don't we discuss what to eat for the night." β
He touched his slightly deflated stomach, laughed dryly and said, "I wasn't hungry, but after such a toss just now, I'm a little hungry now." β
Yu Chuxi pursed her lips and glanced at Shuer curiously.
Shure was keenly aware of its eyes, and asked inexplicably, "What are you doing?" What do you see me doing? β
She shook her head vigorously, "No." β
"Oh...", thinking it was his own delusion, Shure touched his nose and continued, "So what are we going to eat for the night?" β
"I do?" Yu Chuxi blinked, and there was a faint expectation in his eyes.
"Uhhh β
Yu Chuxi immediately lost the languishing appearance just now, brightened his eyes, and ran out of the bedroom with slippers.
"If you can't eat today, put it in the spare space." He said, propping his forehead.
It was the first time he had entered Yu Chuxi's room.
When he first came in, his mind was focused on finding Yu Chuxi, but he didn't care much about the furnishings of the room, and now that he had free time, he looked around the room.
There were still all kinds of books scattered on the floor, and there was a desk in the corner, which was very clean and tidy, and his silver whistle was also placed on it.
There is a pot of lily of the valley on the windowsill, and there is a hint of floral fragrance in the room.
There's nothing special about it, I don't know why she's willing to stay in her room for so long.
Thinking so, he left Yu Chuxi's room, and when he walked to the kitchen, Yu Chuxi made all the newly bought ingredients in the refrigerator as before.
Shure: You can fit in a spare space, but you still feel like you're going to be blown up.
