Chapter Twenty-Three: The Little Room
Tuan Tuan's small eyes, which were held in the palm of his hand, looked at Li Le, who had a serious face, put his paws under his body, and replied:
"Squeak—"
'Good. ’
Hearing its answer, the smile in Li Le's eyes deepened.
In Li Le's personal concept, the name has a very special meaning: it means responsibility, bonding, and subordination.
So she never gives names to living creatures easily, she has had many pets in her previous life, but the only one who gave her a name was the Rottweiler who was by her side from birth to death.
To some extent, Li Le is also a single-minded and responsible person.
Therefore, her act of naming Tuan Tuan at this moment is enough to show her expectations for the little guy in front of her: she hopes that this little guy can always be by her side like the Rottweiler in her previous life.
However, at this time, Hotaru didn't know all this, but after hearing Li Le's voice, she chattered slightly excitedly:
"Squeak-squeak-"
'Why do you understand?' Do you know anyone who can understand me? ’
"Squeak-squeak-"
'You don't know how sad I was in the tribe before... They don't seem to understand what I say... No one cares about me...'
"Squeak-squeak-"
'I can understand you humans, but you can't hear me... I don't know why...'
……
Li Le pulled a soft cushion and put it on the table before Tuan Tuan could speak, and gently put it on it.
As if he wanted to finish all the unfinished words of that lonely time, Tuan Tuan spoke and gestured on the soft cushion, and his black sesame eyes were always looking at Li Le, shining.
Li Le opened the loot he had bought for half a day one by one, neatly tidied up the house, and listened to Tuan Tuan talking, looking serious, and would reply to it briefly every time:
"Yes, I can understand you..."
"Well, I'll be able to understand you in the future..."
"It's okay, let's find the answer together in the future..."
……
Li Le's voice was not very gentle, ingenious, and even a little cold and careless, but because of this, it seemed to show a kind of arrogance, as if he was telling an established fact.
As she replied, she carefully removed the ornaments from the bedside table, took out a rag to wipe off the dust, then spread a layer of cloth on top of it, and laid out the ornaments one by one, and finally pulled out a bone china bottle from the parcel and placed it on it;
Looking around, Li Le took out a broom from the side of the utility room and meticulously cleaned the ground......
She was talking to Tuan Tuan and cleaning the room, and the soft pale gold tower light shone in through the window, showing a soft silence.
……
"Brother Bai, where did you find Tuan Tuan? How did you select it? It's very spiritual, and I love it. ”
Li Le put Tuan Tuan on his shoulder during dinner, looked up at Brother Bai and asked curiously.
Two pairs of eyes, one large and one small, were looking at Bai Ye curiously, making Bai Ye's eyes a little warm.
"This little guy is what I saw at the exchange, so I brought it back." Brother Bai paused, and then continued: "Tuan Tuan is its name? ”
Li Le smiled, his dark eyes showed a bright smile, and said happily: "Yes, this is the name I gave it." ”
The Tuan Tuan next to him exuded a bright light, and "squeaked" twice to show his agreement.
A smile flashed in Brother Bai's eyes and said, "Yes, this name is very good." ”
Li Le's eyes lit up, and he was praised by Brother Bai, and couldn't help but say proudly: "Of course..."
Brother Bai shook his head helplessly and reminded: "Eat quickly, the rice is going to be cold." ”
Li Le bent his eyebrows and said, "Okay, Brother Bai." ”
After speaking, she scooped a large spoonful of rice into her mouth, stuffed her cheeks bulging, and added those dark eyes, which were like six points on her shoulders.
Brother Bai smiled dumbly, and his cold eyebrows and eyes softened a little.
Li Le was busy cooking rice, and when he heard Brother Bai's laughter, he thought he had heard it wrong, so he only showed a puzzled look, and then threw himself into the great cause of cooking again.
……
"Hiccup—good food."
Li Le lay on the bed at night, hiccuped, and couldn't help sighing:
"It's all because Brother Bai's cooking is so delicious... It makes me feel like I've gained a few pounds..."
"You said yes, Tuan Tuan." She tilted her head and looked at Tuan Tuan Dao lying on the small pillow next to her.
Tuan Tuan was leisurely basking in the light of the tower, and when it heard Li Le's voice, it nodded its head unconsciously, and said:
"Squeak-"
That's right. ’
When Li Le heard this, he couldn't help but smile lowly, turned his head to look at it, hooked the corners of his mouth and said, "What's right?" Do you understand and go along with it? What a little fool. ”
As soon as Li Le tilted his head, a few strands of his jet-black hair scattered in front of Tuan Tuan.
As if sneezing, Tuan Tuan stretched out his little paw and grabbed one of them, and shouted in protest:
"Squeak-"
Li Le couldn't help but joke: "Okay, okay, I was wrong, you're not stupid, you're not stupid... You're just facing me, loosen your hair, and what if you drag me bald..."
Tuan Tuan's claws loosened a little, but he still didn't let go, and shouted:
"Squeak squeak—"
Li Le's eyebrows were crooked, he stretched out his index finger and gently poked its soft gray fluff, and said with a smile: "Okay, you can drag it if you want, but how is your sleeping position... Remember to be careful not to press it. ”
Tuan Tuan nodded his little head, his little bean-like eyes lit up, and he nodded, and his voice was full of happiness.
Li Le squinted his eyes and smiled, and praised him at the right time: "Really good, go to sleep, tomorrow I plan to take you around again... I'll make you a 'small house' for the next two days... When the time comes, wherever I go, I will lift you... Ah no, it's somewhere..."
Tuan Tuan hadn't realized what the small house Li Le was talking about... It even closed its eyes in great obedience, expecting great anticipation of the surprise.
