Chapter 32: Home
For the first time in his life, Zhou Zhongqing brought such a special guest home as a guest.
Miss Ghost was dumbfounded, forgetful and a little socially afraid, and walked into the house with Zhou Zhongqing, looking very restrained.
Because no one can see her except Zhou Zhongqing, then there is no welcoming ceremony.
"Brother, you're so slow! I've already cooked my meal! ”
Hearing the movement of opening the door, Zhou Xiyu, who had just cooked rice, also came out of the kitchen, and the little fat cat behind her also ran out of the Brin Ringland.
Unlike Xiao Yu, who couldn't see Bai Yueying, Xiao Mang suddenly became vigilant when he saw Miss Ghost following behind Zhou Zhongqing, and his originally high tail was also flat behind him, and his eyes locked on her.
Xiao Mang's performance naturally fell in Zhou Zhongqing's eyes, yesterday he doubted that Xiao Mang could see Bai Yueying's existence, and today this situation made him a lot more affirmed.
The brother who was caught in the middle had no choice but to continue to play excellent acting skills as if nothing had happened.
"After the rice is cooked, then you go upstairs to do your homework first, otherwise you can stay and peel the garlic for me."
"I have a lot of homework! Goodbye, brother! ”
Between peeling garlic and doing homework, Zhou Xiyu decisively chose the latter, bent down to pick up the little fat cat, and the two went upstairs together.
It was only at this time that Zhou Zhongqing had the opportunity to whisper to Bai Yueying: "Can Xiao Mang see you?" ”
"Huh?"
"Oh, Mang, my cat."
"Busy, busy?"
"Mango's mango."
Bai Yueying naturally remembers Xiao Mang, although she doesn't have a good memory, but after all, Xiao Mang is a magical cat, the two of them said hello last night, and made an agreement to keep each other secret, she still remembers.
Seeing Zhou Zhongqing ask, Bai Yueying also nodded and said, "Yes, can you see me......"
This answer should not be considered a breach of agreement...... Miss Ghost keeps her promises.
Of course, Zhou Zhongqing's brain hole was not big enough to ask anything else, but nodded in surprise: "No wonder people say that the eyes of cats and dogs are psychic......"
"Then Zhongqing, why can you see me?"
"You ask me, who do I ask?"
Zhou Zhongqing was also speechless, and when he saw Bai Yueying standing at the door, he beckoned her in.
"There's no one else in my house, you don't have to be too restrained, sit on the sofa first, you can watch TV if you want, and you can eat anything if you want...... Anyway, it's up to you to make your own arrangements, find something to do by yourself, ghosts can't be too idle, they will be idle. ”
"Oooh......"
Hearing Zhou Zhongqing say this, Bai Yueying finally walked into his house.
"Go sit on the sofa, what are you doing standing?"
“……”
Bai Yueying sat down on the sofa at this time.
Because there is no quality, even when sitting on a soft sofa, the cushions do not deform in any way.
Zhou Zhongqing was busy with work and didn't care about her, threw his backpack on the sofa, went to the kitchen with the dishes first, took out what he ate tonight, and put it in the refrigerator if he didn't eat.
Occasionally, when I looked back, I saw that she was still sitting on the sofa in that position, not leaning on the sofa, sitting straight on her waist, her hands on her lap obediently, and her big eyes were stunned looking at the TV that was not turned on.
Zhou Zhongqing didn't know how to describe it, just like although she was in this home, she was obviously separated from the atmosphere of this home, even if she was just a guest, it seemed so incompatible.
"Is there a TV show you'd like to watch?"
His voice sounded behind him, and Bai Yueying took her eyes off the dark TV screen and turned her head to look at him.
"No, no, I can do it."
“……”
Zhou Zhongqing still helped her turn on the TV, and the remote control was also placed next to her.
Bai Yueying doesn't pick what she puts on the TV, she watches it.
However, as the sound of the TV sounded, the originally quiet atmosphere eased a lot, and gradually, she finally seemed to get used to it, and began to observe the environment of his house curiously.
There was a staircase over there, and Xiao Yu and Lord Mang had just gone up to the second floor from there; There was also a tablet of his parents in the wall, and some burned incense was inserted in the incense burner; The refrigerator is in the kitchen, the dining table on the other side of the living room, the bathroom on the opposite side of the kitchen, and there is a room next door, but the door is closed, and it is estimated that it used to be the parents' room.
Although there are no elders, the home is cleaned and clean, and the various arrangements are also well organized, not to mention how well the decoration is, but at least it is very warm.
After wandering for so long, Bai Yueying's concept of home is already very vague, she can't remember and can't recall what her former home was like, after becoming a ghost, she has no fixed place, and wherever she goes every day, even in the pouring rain and dark nights, she also walks alone in the empty streets.
Now sitting on the soft sofa, looking at the clean and bright room, the picture played on the TV in front of him, looking back is the beep of Zhou Zhongqing in the kitchen wearing an apron washing and chopping vegetables......
Bai Yueying was stunned for a long time, and the feeling in her heart didn't know how to describe, as if she was in another world.
When the TV program began to broadcast commercials, she took the initiative to pick up the remote control next to her for the first time, carefully pressed the button, and switched the TV station.
She looked at the TV and gently put the remote back in its place.
After a while, she noticed that a cup with a cute cartoon pattern on the coffee table had forgotten to close the lid, and for the first time, she took the initiative to pick up the lid and close the cup.
Bai Yueying seemed to understand Zhou Zhongqing's feeling of 'finding something to do'.
This is not something that Zhou Zhongqing asked her to do, and it is not a big deal, but this is what she wants to do completely and spontaneously, except to die.
Inexplicably, she felt as if she had a connection to this home.
And then the spontaneous desire to do more arose.
She saw a few water stains on the table, she picked up a rag to dry it, arranged the cups and tea sets that didn't look very neat, refolded the used rags into small squares, and when she saw a fallen candy paper next to the trash can, she got up and picked it up and put it in the trash can......
With no breath, no heartbeat, and no idea why she exists, she inexplicably felt that she had done something very meaningful.
Somewhere in the three inches of her chest, it seemed to beat, and the spontaneous feeling of warmth instantly spread to her limbs.
Zhou Zhongqing put the washed fish on the cutting board, and when he turned around, he caught a glimpse of her standing at the kitchen door.
The girl's lithe body leaned against the door frame, and her delicate fingers, which were slightly nervous, did not know where to place.
"You don't watch TV anymore?" Zhou Zhongqing asked her.
"Well, I, I'm looking for something to do, I want to help you......" It was obviously a matter of taking the initiative to help, but the tone of voice seemed to need to be helped.
"Hmm......"
Zhou Zhongqing didn't know what happened to her, but looking at her, she seemed to be in good shape.
She didn't refuse, just glanced at the kitchen and thought about what she could do to help.
So, Bai Yueying had an extra garlic in front of her.
"Let's peel the garlic."
“……”
