The tree demon seizes the house and chases after the wife

Chapter 37

The lights are on.

In fact, asking for leave is nothing important.

Jiang Bai carried a black shoulder bag, walked through the square and some bustling streets, and came to the bachelor apartment he rented.

The house she rented this time is a little better. It faces south and has a big window. Jiang Bai likes the feeling of opening the big curtains every morning and watching thousands of golden sunshine pouring into the bedroom. At that moment, silence and suffocation The darkness was torn apart by the glare of the sun, as if reborn from the ashes.

Pick up the key and open the door.The room was suffocatingly quiet.

A person turned on the light, locked the door behind his back, put on slippers, Jiang Bai turned on his phone, and ordered a takeaway for himself.

One's life, it seems, is in order.

Only occasionally, I feel a little lonely.

Nothing.

Jiang Bai came to the bedroom, stared at the cloth wardrobe by the wall for a while, then raised his eyebrows slightly, as if afraid of scaring someone, opened the wardrobe gently, and took out a light gray dress from the bottom, which was neatly folded. The scarf, the bedside, a beautiful and clean glass vase, a narcissus growing just right, Jiang Bai put the scarf next to the narcissus, and then took out his phone.

Opened the gallery, and the first thing that popped up was a photo of macarons with good lighting. The small and cute macarons were arranged in a wooden basket made of bamboo. Jiang Bai held his chin, and his black eyes softened. .

"This is my first dessert."

She paused, her voice was slightly shy, "...for the first time, it was a successful dessert."

She turned to the second one, which was blueberry milk tea.

"When making milk tea, I added too much sugar, so I was trained by the master."

"However, the master is not very harsh in admonishing others, but a very gentle person."

"..."

The room was quiet, only the quiet and gentle voice of the black-haired girl echoed gently.

There are a lot of pictures on the phone.

All kinds of desserts.

Only Jiang Bai knew that these were all desserts that she worked hard to make, and Aunt Gu nodded and thought they were okay desserts.

She wants to share the best of herself with that person.

Even though, that person is long gone.

The girl's voice is very soft and slow, but even so, the gallery is sometimes turned to the bottom.

The last picture is the matcha cake she made yesterday after staying up all night.

Although the taste is denied, the appearance is still very passable.

Jiang Bai looked at it for a while, and then slowly said, "I threw this away, but when I made it, I always thought about..."

...Always thinking, if you are by your side, it would be nice to have a taste.

So, she took the picture first.

What is thrown into the trash can is the cake, and what remains is the mood at that time.

Jiang Bai was silent, and after a while, he laughed, "If it was you, you would definitely be reluctant to train me."

Another point, uncomfortable.

Putting down the phone, Jiang Bai picked up the gray scarf that he had put away, kicked it, and curled himself up on the bed. The gray scarf in his arms gave off some warm breath, Jiang Bai buried his head in the scarf, and said in a muffled voice, "...you still remember?"

In the room, it was quiet.

No one answered.

Jiang Bai wasn't discouraged when he didn't get an answer, he just spoke softly as if reminding someone.

"Today...is the day we met for the first time."

As if he didn't care.But the slender and slender fingers clenched the scarf tightly, and the finger bones were blue and white.

So, I took a leave of absence.

It took her a long time before she spoke slowly, as if she was trying to calm down her emotions, but also seemed to be changing the subject in embarrassment, "Today... a new boss came to the store."

"Master is leaving."

"It's strange that when I see the new boss, I feel a little uneasy."

Thinking of the frivolous and willful girl, Jiang Bai paused, then stroked the scarf, and continued to speak slowly.The leaves of the narcissus on the head of the bed trembled slightly, and the flowers had already withered, but the whole head of garlic still seemed to be in good spirits.

"The new boss is very young, but I still hope that Aunt Gu can stay."

Jiang Bai raised his head, and after a while he said in a low voice, "A Yue, I don't like... that person."

Then, he quietly closed his mouth.

There was a suffocating silence in the room.

After a while, the doorbell rang, presumably it was the takeaway, Jiang Bai folded the scarf in his arms and put it aside, got out of bed and went to the door.

"Who?"

She asked behind the door first.

No one answered.

Jiang Bai frowned, took out his phone and opened the delivery software.

On the map, the delivery man has not arrived yet.

Who is outside the door?

Jiang Bai's gaze became sharper.But before he could think of a way to deal with it, the phone suddenly vibrated.

an unfamiliar number.

Jiang Bai accepted it with a frown.

"It's me, open the door."

With a lazy and hoarse tone, "You left something in the store, I'll bring it to you."

Jiang Bai was silent for a while before asking, "How do you know where I live?"

And the phone number...

"You have the address on the information in the store."

The girl outside the door was carrying a kraft paper bag, her long warm brown hair was tied up high, and her lips painted with maple syrup color lipstick were lazily bent, taking it for granted, "The big boss has worked tirelessly to send you a gift." Come here, won't you open the door and let me in for a cup of tea?"

It's quite a bit of Grandma Wolf's conspiracy.

"You put your things at the door, go back." Jiang Bai's voice was light, "Thank you."

This meant that he did not intend to open the door for her.

Hearing this, Hua Mian outside the door raised her eyebrows.

It's really embarrassing.

But... In this case, he is her Ah Bai.

With a self-deprecating smile, Hua Mian said, "That's fine, I put the things at the door, let's not talk about it, I still have something to do, don't forget to take it."

"Ah."

The phone was hung up, Jiang Bai looked at the darkened phone screen, and frowned slightly.

Something left in the store...?

She doesn't seem to have left anything in the store.

Still waiting patiently for a while, Jiang Bai guessed that the eccentric new boss might have left long ago, thought about it, and opened the door.

Facing her, the girl with warm brown hair tied high into a ponytail smiled slyly at her, "Good evening, little apprentice."

"..."

Jiang Bai was about to close the door with a blank face, but Hua Mian moved faster than her, and opened the door with one hand, with great strength, Jiang Bai was caught off guard for a moment, and his hand slipped out of the doorknob. girl's chest.

Jiang Bai instinctively wanted to push her away, but the scent of some familiar flowers permeated, her pupils shrank slightly, and her whole body was surrounded by this smell, almost suffocating, and the movements of her hands also slowed down.

Hua Mian didn't move either.

Although Jiang Bai's touch was a little painful, Hua Mian felt strangely comfortable.

...Ah Bai, in her arms.

Hua Mian's hand was about to move and wanted to hug Jiang Bai, but reason still made her calm down. After a long while, she said slowly, "I know you will be very happy when the big boss personally delivers things to you. But it doesn't have to be like this as soon as the door is opened..."

Chest, a little wet.

Hua Mian's words stopped abruptly.

Jiang Bai pushed the girl away, turned around and ran back to the room without saying a word, his footsteps were hurried and embarrassed, and he didn't even close the door.

Hua Mian pushed back a step, almost lost control, but she didn't get angry, she just froze in place, if she didn't read wrong just now——

When Ah Bai just ran away, there were tears in his eyes.

Abai she... cried?

cry, cry? !

Hua Mian was holding the doorknob, carrying a brown paper bag, and was in a dilemma at the door for a while.

This... She just made her cry?

No, can't you?She doesn't seem to have done anything excessive.Moreover, it seems that Ah Bai rushed over by himself...

The dryad, who had always been in control of the world, began to feel a little guilty.

Should she... Or don't go in yet?

"...Little apprentice?"

Not going in is one thing, Hua Mian obediently stayed at the door, hesitantly shouted, "You..."

Are you OK?

However, before Hua Mian could ask, a boy wearing a takeaway LOGO shirt hurried over with a takeaway. He glanced at Hua Mian, then at the house number next to the door, and then at the wide open security door. "Are you the head of the household?"

Hua Mian shook her head, then nodded quickly, "I'm not, I'm... I'm a classmate of this family, you give me the takeaway, and I'll let her give you a good review later."

The takeaway guy glanced at her suspiciously, thought for a while, and thought that a girl who looked clean and well-dressed would not lie about a takeaway, and indeed seemed to have something to do with the head of the household. look.

Without further ado, I handed the takeaway to Hua Mian, "Remember to give a five-star review, thank you."

"Leave it to me."

Hua Mian made an "ok" gesture to the delivery guy.

Seeing this, the little brother left with confidence.

Hua Mian was carrying the takeaway that she had cheated, um, she got her excuse.

"Little apprentice, your takeaway is here."

Hua Mian pretended to shout outside the door.

Jiang Bai ignored her.

"Then I'll come in."

After entering the apartment, Hua Mian closed the door smoothly, and then habitually began to look around.

Looking at it, Hua Mian's heart slowly sank.

Ah Bai... seems to have changed a lot.

Although the room was cleaned and tidy, and things were neatly arranged, it always made people feel that if it was too much, it would lose its popularity.

Too deliberate.

Hua Mian suddenly remembered, the first time she seized the house, when she went to see Jiang Bai.

Messy rooms, cramped rooms, half-opened beer bottles.

Live recklessly and degenerately.

In his eyes, there is always a trace of stubborn vitality.

But now Ah Bai seems to be living cleanly, working hard.But when Hua Mian glanced over, she could only see the heavy numbness in the other party's eyes.

It was barren and lifeless.

Hua Mian slowly closed her eyes, for a while, she didn't dare to look any more.

"All come in, just sit down."

The girl's voice suddenly rang out, breaking the silence of the room. Hua Mian opened her eyes, and saw a black-haired girl in cotton mop standing at the door of the bedroom, looking at her with faint eyes, "Put the things on the table, I'll get you a cup of tea."

It's just that the eye circles are slightly red.

Hua Mian put everything on the table, Jiang Bai poured two cups of boiled water from the kitchen, and put them next to Hua Mian.Ignoring her any more, she opened the takeaway box, and Hua Mian looked over, her heart suffocated.

...very familiar, fried rice.

It was the fried rice that she often brought this person to eat with when she was still Chu Yue.

Hua Mian held the cup with both hands, and the mist from the boiling water blurred the face of the black-haired girl.

"...You, like this fried rice very much?"

After a while, Hua Mian pretended to be nonchalant and asked.

"got used to."

Jiang Bai's voice was faint.

"Hmm..." Hua Mian looked at Jiang Bai, and after a while, she whispered, "You left nothing in the store, I just lied to you."

Jiang Bai squeezed the takeaway spoon tightly.The plastic spoon couldn't bear the girl's strength at once, and broke with a "snap", and the sharp part stuck into the hand, causing deep pain.Jiang Bai looked up at the girl named Gu Li as if he didn't feel it.

Hua Mian's next sentence got stuck in her throat, and she couldn't even utter a single word in the face of the black-haired girl's cold and piercing eyes.

"My whole life."

The girl's voice was indifferent and calm. She stared at the girl opposite, and every word and every word could always make people hear the turbulent waves and the incomprehensible hatred that others couldn't understand.

"I hate people lying to me the most."

Looking at Jiang Bai like this, Hua Mian felt that every word this girl said was heartbreaking to her.

She wasn't her little liar anymore.

But so what.

"I just want to find an excuse to apologize to my little apprentice." Hua Mian endured the pain in her heart, pretending to be indifferent, and the corner of her mouth curved into a perfect smile that could not find any flaws. Take out the small dessert in the leather bag, "Well, if you don't find a reason, you will definitely not accept my apology."

"Let's get back together."

Abai, I'm back.

The author has something to say: Jiang Bai: Excuseme?Are we better off?
