Chapter 17: Once upon a time

"Once upon a time, there was a little monkey who loved bananas."

"One day, a crocodile on the shore came to tempt it, saying that there were a lot of banana trees on the island in the water not far from the shore, and there were many, many bananas on them!"

The greedy little monkey finally couldn't resist the temptation and jumped on the crocodile's back. Because the crocodile said that if it picks a banana and gives it some, it will give it a reward. ”

Such an opening is obviously a fairy tale, not like a joke.

However, Han Xueqing still maintained politeness and did not interrupt him, but continued to listen as if he had obviously heard it, but was still cheering.

"If the crocodile didn't want a banana as a reward, the little monkey wouldn't believe it would be so kind to help."

"Now because of the other party's behavior of asking for compensation, the little monkey who is very greedy still relaxes his guard."

"But in fact, the reward that the crocodile really wants is the little monkey's heart!"

"Because it's heard other crocodiles say that a monkey's heart is the most delicious thing in the world."

。。。

In the later plot, Han Xueqing heard it when he was a child, that is, the little monkey lied that he came in a hurry and forgot his heart on the tree on the shore.

In order to be able to eat the little monkey's heart, the crocodile had to send it back to shore, but the little monkey who returned to the shore never fell for the crocodile again!

But this time, when Ye Mo said that when the crocodile heard that the little monkey had forgotten his heart on the shore, he did not send the little monkey back to the shore to get his heart.

Instead, he said to the little monkey, "It's okay, even if I can't get your heart, I'll be satisfied if I can eat your body!" ”

"But the heart is the most delicious! The little monkey, frightened and unable to get out, tried to persuade the crocodile to take it back from the water far from the shore. ”

"But the crocodile said, compared to getting nothing, I'm very satisfied with your body!"

When the story comes to this, it was a joke that Ye Mo thought he had succeeded.

Because in his hurry, he didn't quickly recall any good jokes he had ever seen.

Coupled with the joke that Han Xueqing said before that he was looking forward to the joke he told, Ye Mo felt that making up a random one might be able to meet the other party's expectations.

So in a hurry, he had the idea of starting with a fairy tale that many children had heard when he was a child.

Then, when Han Xueqing had lowered his expectations, he suddenly made the ending a plot where it was not a monkey victory, but a crocodile that did not let the monkey escape.

I hope to use such a contrast to make Han Xueqing feel interesting.

However, when the joke that he thought had been adapted was finished.

Han Xueqing was not amused by him at all.

On the contrary, her face turned red instantly!

Cover your eyes with both hands, and after covering them, she said with shame and a little annoyance:

"Brother Ye, if you say this kind of thing again, I will ignore you!"

At this time, Ye Mo was first stunned for a moment, and then realized that his story might have caused Han Xueqing to misunderstand.

"Ahh I'm sorry. ”

After apologizing, Ye Mo was immediately a little confused, why did he apologize.

"It's just an adapted fairy tale, don't think about it."

"The crocodile inside is this to eat~"

As he spoke, Ye Mo opened his mouth wide and made a eating motion.

But at this time, Han Xueqing remembered, and when he went to his door to ask before taking a bath, he heard him say, "But don't you think it's a bit too fast to kiss when you first meet?" ”

She closed the door and left at that time, and she didn't hear the follow-up words that Ye Mo wanted to hear for her.

At this moment, Han Xueqing, who had just experienced a power outage in the middle of the shower, and Ye Mo happened to take the initiative to bring the small candlestick, after listening to Ye Mo's story, she almost decided that Ye Mo had "that" thoughts about her!

Just at this time, the light in Han Xueqing's bedroom suddenly turned on.

Not only the bedroom, but also the living room lights, the bathroom, etc., are all lit up together!

"It's coming, I don't need to accompany me, I'll see you tomorrow morning."

In this way, it can be regarded as finding a step down for the two people who are embarrassed.

"Okay, you get some rest early." Ye Mo, who realized that he had died, immediately left here and returned to his bedroom.

When the two were in the same room for a short time, Marshmallow never came to disturb them.

At this time, the call came again, it was still lying lazily on the bed, and when it heard Ye Mo coming back, it opened its eyes and meowed, and then continued to sleep.

"I really shouldn't be kind enough to stay with her, and I was treated as a bad person if I told a story unintentionally."

Ye Mo, who was sitting on his bed, sulked a little.

On the other side, when Ye Mo left, Han Xueqing gradually began to regret saying something like that to him just now.

"At least this electricity must not have been deliberately stopped by him, if these coincidences are missing the most critical link, does it mean that I really overreacted just now?"

She began to lean against the head of the bed, recalling the story that Ye Mo had just told him.

"Even if you can't get your heart, but you can get your body?"

Han Xueqing, who let down the guard in her heart, felt that such an ending was indeed a funny turn at this time.

If it was a misunderstanding, the first day of the move made the owner feel frustrated by being misunderstood, and she felt that this was not what a new tenant needed to do.

"But I've already explained that I'll see you early, isn't it good to say anything now?"

"And if you take the initiative to go over and say that you misunderstood him, will it make the two of you even more embarrassed than you are now?"

In the end, Han Xueqing still decided not to go, but she had to get up early tomorrow to make breakfast.

She hopes to use such actions to prove to Ye Mo that she is the one who wants to take the initiative to restore a good living relationship!

Pick up the brush and put it down again.

Ye Mo, who used to be inspired at this time, couldn't even draw a single stroke this time.

"If the male protagonist is misunderstood by the female protagonist that he is a bad person, how can he perfectly eliminate the misunderstanding?"

Unconsciously, the day he and Han Xueqing experienced together, there were already countless pictures that began to overlap with the plot of his new comics.

"As the saying goes, those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid."

"Since I'm not as bad as she thinks, why should I mess with myself and be a mecrete?"

Ye Mo decided to draw less tonight, anyway, with his current state of mind, it would be difficult to draw a good plot.

But now it's an hour or two away from his usual sleeping time.

The habit that has been formed for a long time is disrupted by the guitar girl who is fresh to move in today, which feels both uncomfortable and indescribably wonderful.

Turn off the lights and plug the headphones into the wiring hole of your phone.

It's rare to go to bed early, but it's a lot of good songs that don't usually sound special, and they keep tugging at his heartstrings.

Especially:

"Look at the stars in the distance."

"If you can hear it."

"It will come to pass."
