Chapter 35

Qi Zhao was thinking about how to improve Gu Ci's favorability as quickly as possible along the way. When he opened the door to go home, he unconsciously glanced at Ji Yue's closed door. But the first message she received when she returned home was from Qin Zhuo.

Qin Zhuo seemed to have calculated the time. As soon as Qi Zhao changed his shoes and closed the door, his phone vibrated with a "buzz" sound.

Qi Zhao turned on his phone and found a video call from Qin Zhuo.

Qi Zhao smoothed his hair that was raised due to static electricity, looked in the mirror and found nothing was wrong, then pressed the green button: "What's wrong?"

His tone was particularly soft, making people feel very close to him.

Qin Zhuo looked like he had just taken a shower, his hair was wet and still dripping water, and there was a layer of fog on the screen.

Qin Zhuo found that the lens was fogged and wiped it with a dry towel.

The handsome face on the screen was finally clearly revealed, and the smile on Qin Zhuo's face became clear: "Nothing, I just wanted to see if you were home."

Qi Zhao flipped the camera and moved around the living room with the rear camera: "Come on, Director Qin, while I'm reporting to you, I'll let you visit my home."

Qin Zhuo laughed at the other end of the screen when he heard this, nodded in approval, and commented cooperatively: "Not bad, Qi The house is clean and tidy, and there is nothing messy, which makes people feel at ease."

Qi Zhao smiled when he heard this, and went to the refrigerator to get a bottle of water, and asked him: "There is nothing worrying about my house."

Qin Zhuo said seriously on the other end: "I finally got a girlfriend, so anything related to men in my girlfriend's house is something that makes people uneasy."

Qin Zhuo seemed to become confused again across the phone. He became bolder and spoke more straightforwardly. He was not as shy as when he was face to face with Qi Zhao.

Just when Qi Zhao was about to tease him, he heard him say again: "What if you hide your love in the golden house at home or have a good brother outside, who should I cry to?"

The moment Qin Zhuo finished his sentence, Qi Zhao happened to open the refrigerator. Qi Zhao was stunned by the cold for two seconds.

After quickly going over it in his mind and realizing that Qin Zhuo had no way of knowing Ji Yue, Qi Zhao realized that his words might have been just casual remarks.

Qi Zhao took a bottle of drink from the refrigerator and took a few sips. He spoke in a natural tone but did not mention the topic of his "good brother" at all: "You don't know how busy the film and television department is. Where do I have time to hide my beauty in the golden house?"

The drink was a little cold, and Qi Zhao could clearly feel how it reached his stomach from his throat.

After Qi Zhao calmed down, he asked with a smile: "But if I really hide my beauty in the golden house, what will you do?"

Qin Zhuo answered quickly: "I will put the house and the hidden person together. " Take it apart."

Although it sounded like a joke, Qin Zhuo's tone was serious and serious.

Qi Zhao still smiled and joked: "Then I can't hide my beauty in a golden house for the sake of my house."

But he urgently summoned the system in his heart: "001, is there a risk that the male protagonist in your game will turn black? 001

's data trembled, as if the system was shaking its head: [I don't know, the male protagonist in "Surge of Love" has a high degree of freedom, and each player may have a different ending. But according to the main game data, there should be no risk of blackening. ]

When the system said this, it said seriously as if it was remembering something: [But your method of defeating the male protagonist, as well as the data fluctuations and plot trends of each male protagonist, I have never seen in the main game. ]

Qi Zhao: "..."

Qi Zhao: "Is there any difference between what you said and what you didn't say?"

She originally wanted to wait for Qin Zhuo's favorability level to break up immediately to improve efficiency and work non-stop to find the next male protagonist, but at present, it seems If she wanted to break up with Qin Zhuo, she would have to find a reason.

And you have to find a reason for him to break up with you.

Because Qin Zhuo seems to be the type who won't let go once he gets something. If he just finds a reason to deal with it, it might have the opposite effect and make him cling tighter and tighter.

Qi Zhao sighed in his heart: If I had known better, I would not have agreed to him. If I had been ambiguous, I might have been able to achieve full favorability.

Unlike Qi Zhao, who felt regretful, Qin Zhuo had been in a daze ever since she said "ok" at the playground, feeling like her head was bubbling.

When Qin Zhuo heard Qi Zhao speak without any concealment or panic, he was sure that she was not lying to him. After he relaxed, he saw the dishes in Qi Zhao's refrigerator and asked, "Can you cook?"

Qi Zhao glanced at the screen after hearing this.

She kept her rear camera on, and the contents of the refrigerator were clearly illuminated.

Qi Zhao took a few sips of the drink and closed the refrigerator door. He turned his phone back to the front position and said, "Yes, sometimes I cook for myself in the morning after work. But the film and television department has been a little busy lately. Eat outside."

Qin Zhuo heard this and asked with a smile: "I wonder if Mr. Qi has any specialties?"

Qi Zhao looked at Qin Zhuo on the screen and smiled confidently: "As long as it is. I can cook all my specialty dishes."

Qin Zhuo was caught off guard by the cute Qi Zhao with a proud look on his face. He couldn't stop the smile on his face, and his heartbeat, which had just been steady, was now beating at a high frequency.

Qin Zhuo's body felt a little hot, and the water dripping on his body from the tips of his hair was warm.

Qin Zhuo thought and created another opportunity for himself.

It was like saying it casually but with obvious purpose: "Really? I want to try everything you said."

"Okay."

Qi Zhao agreed simply, but left room for what he said next: "When? When you're free, I'll cook a big meal for you."

She had to choose a time when Ji Yue was not around to invite Qin Zhuo over, or ask Qin Zhuo to invite herself over.

Qin Zhuo didn't know the twists and turns in her mind. Hearing that Qi Zhao was going to cook for him to eat, he just felt happy: "Okay, then I'll look forward to it first."

When Qi Zhao sat on the sofa and passed by the TV Taking a glance, she suddenly remembered what Qin Zhuo said at the playground tonight, and asked: "By the way, what is the background of your current movie? No need to book the set in advance?"

"Why do you look like a gossip reporter now? " Qin Zhuo raised his lips and said teasingly, "Director Qi, didn't you say that the film and television department would give me the greatest freedom and not interfere with the subject matter of the movie? "

Qi Zhao was quiet for two seconds, then looked at the camera with his eyes and smiled. Brilliant and bright: "I am not the director of the Linchuan Film and Television Department now. I am asking Qin Zhuo about the movie as Qin Zhuo's girlfriend."

Qi Zhao raised his free left hand and made a gesture holding a The microphone is facing the screen.

As if he was playing the role of the gossip reporter that Qin Zhuo had just said: "Qin Zhuo, can your girlfriend ask about your work?"

Qin Zhuo was a little irritated by Qi Zhao's skillful combo. I don’t even know where to put my hands.

Qin Zhuo reached out and brushed his wet hair, and the coolness on his fingertips finally calmed his mind.

But the smile in his words still couldn't be concealed, and he acted with Qi Zhao: "Thanks to this reporter for asking the question, of course my girlfriend can ask about my work. At the same time, she is welcome to be curious about my private life."

Qi Zhao, who had always adhered to the principle of leaving private space when dating before, heard this and suddenly remembered that Qin Zhuo was jealous of Han Sansheng at the amusement park.

So he asked: "Who are Xiaoguan and Laoer that I saw at the playground today?"

After Qi Zhao finished speaking, he added another sentence to prove his and Han Sansheng's innocence: "When I went to make wine that day, I heard Han Sansheng mention it naturally, and today I feel that you are very familiar with each other.

"They are my childhood friends just like Han Sansheng." Qin Zhuo explained truthfully without any concealment. "The students we live in also went to school together, and we have been playing together since childhood."

Even so, Qin Zhuo was a little upset when he thought of these three light bulbs that suddenly appeared in the playground, and he felt a little nervous in his heart. The restlessness also subsided.

Qin Zhuo said firmly: "Han Sansheng must have called them here. I only called him in the afternoon, and he must have turned around and told Lao Er and Xiao Guan."

Qi Zhao looked at the screen Qin Zhuo looked angrily, raised his eyes and said, "But I didn't expect you to be the biggest among them."

Qin Zhuo nodded first, then seemed to realize something, and asked Qi Zhao: "How do you know? Am I the oldest?"

Qi Zhao now looked at Qin Zhuo and believed the saying "Falling in love makes people stupid."

She found it a little funny: "Because Xiaoguan and Laoer both call me sister-in-law. If you are younger than them, one of you should call me sister-in-law."

Qin Zhuo suddenly realized: "Oh, what I said ."

Qin Zhuo just finished speaking, as if he also felt that the question he just asked was a bit clever.

He laughed along with Qi Zhao on the other side of the screen, and then made up for himself: "Except Xiaoguan is a few years younger than us, Han Sansheng, Han Sansheng, and the second child are all born in the same year, and our birthdays are within a few days of each other. I didn't react."

The two of them just talked about a useless topic, but they didn't want to stop it.

Qin Zhuo is now in the period when his relationship has just been confirmed.

He lost himself in the conversation, and by the end of the conversation, his originally wet hair turned into a semi-dry state.

The numbers at the top of the screen became longer and longer. Qin Zhuo, who had just been quiet for a few seconds after finishing a topic, suddenly seemed to think of something and asked again: "By the way, I remember you said you like drinking. But why didn't you I saw wine in your house?"

Qi Zhao thought of the wine boxes piled up against a wall in front of his house and said with a smile, "How could I not have wine in my house? I just bought too much wine and couldn't put it at home. It's piled up."

Qi Zhao happened to be a little thirsty while chatting with Qin Zhuo, so he got up and planned to drink a bottle of wine: "I will take you to see

what Qi Zhao is doing now besides breaking up with him . Say "yes" to everything.

Qi Zhao walked to the door with his cell phone and placed his hand on the door handle. As soon as a crack was exposed, the sound of the elevator door opening slipped in.

Qi Zhao was shocked and quickly closed the door again.

Looking out through the peephole, Qi Zhao saw Ji Yue coming down from the elevator.

She glanced at the time and frowned in confusion.

Isn’t it time for Ji Yue to come back?

Why is this point still outside?

Before Qi Zhao could figure out Ji Yue's matter, Qin Zhuo on the phone spoke again: "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Qi Zhao's mind was racing and he replied: "It's okay. I just opened the door and felt something was wrong. There was a cool breeze and I came in. Wait until I change my clothes before going out."

After hearing this, Qin Zhuo said quickly, "You can watch the wine anytime. Don't catch a cold again."

"Okay."

Qi Zhao responded to Qin Zhuo, but he was thinking about Ji Yue in his heart.

Qi Zhao still kept in mind that Ji Yue's favorability dropped sharply because he saw Qin Zhuo's windbreaker that day.

That night, Ji Yue didn't wait for her to explain that she left. After that, Qi Zhao never saw him again, nor did he chat or communicate with him.

Qi Zhao didn't know what Ji Yue was thinking now, or whether he was still angry.

At this time, it was difficult to catch Ji Yue's traces, and Qi Zhao certainly couldn't let it go.

She glanced at Qin Zhuo on the screen, who was immersed in the pink mood of first love and smiling with satisfaction, rolled her eyes, and walked to the bedroom.

As he walked, he said, "But let's put on some clothes. I have to take a shower soon anyway."

Qin Zhuo, who had already calmed down, felt his ears warm again when he heard this.

On the screen, he could see Qi Zhao walking from the entrance to the bedroom. After closing the door, he followed her to the cloakroom.

Although Qin Zhuo was reluctant to hang up the phone, he also knew the most basic ethics and integrity.

He opened his mouth, feeling that the words he spoke were a little hot: "Then you change clothes first, and I'll blow dry my hair."

As soon as Qin Zhuo finished speaking, the phone hung up.

Like running away.

When Qi Zhao saw the phone was hung up, he immediately returned to the entrance from the room.

Qi Zhao looked outside through the peephole and found that Ji Yue had not returned home yet, but was standing at her door.

His eyes were full of hesitation and entanglement, and he hesitated whether he should knock on the door in front of him or not.

Ji Yue's hands rose and fell, staring at the dark door, unable to make up her mind to press the doorbell.

Fortunately, the surroundings were quiet, giving him an environment where he could calm down and think.

But just as Ji Yue was staring at the door, it was suddenly opened from the inside.

The sudden situation made Ji Yue panic instantly.

Like a rabbit that was discovered as soon as it poked its head out of the hole, it subconsciously wanted to go back but was attracted to the front.

Seeing Ji Yue's helpless look, Qi Zhao first raised the corners of his lips to let him relax, and then said with concern: "You seem to be a little late coming back today. Did something happen?"

Ji Yue shook her head like a rattle, He calmed down, but his mouth was still a little stuttered: "No, it's okay, I just trained a little more in the gym today..."

Ever since Qi Zhao learned about Ji Yue's past experience, he was afraid that a second Yang Feining would appear in Hanying Gym. , afraid that he would be bullied again.

Now seeing Ji Yue's cowardice reappearing when facing him, Qi Zhao couldn't help but say one more sentence: "If you are bullied again, just fight back. If you have anything, you can tell me."

Qi Zhao smiled. She said to him: "After all, in the eyes of those in the gym, you still have my sister, don't you?"

Ji Yue suddenly trembled when she saw Qi Zhao's smile, and then quickly lowered her head.

Seeing Ji Yue's obviously abnormal reaction, Qi Zhao was startled and quickly took two steps closer, his tone becoming more serious: "What's wrong? Is someone really bullying you in the gym?"

Ji Yue shook his head, but Qi Zhao In his shaking movements, he could see the tears in the corners of Ji Yue's eyes.

Seeing Ji Yue who was silent, Qi Zhao suddenly became a little anxious. He frowned and said again: "Ji Yue, if you are wronged, you must speak up and I will vent your anger for you."

Hearing Qi Zhao's concern and worry With such a tone, Ji Yue couldn't stop her tears and even cried harder.

The mask covering his mouth undulated like ocean waves with his heavy breathing. Ji Yue swallowed her saliva to suppress her swollen throat, and then said intermittently: "No one bullied me... I just feel... very... I'm sorry."

Qi Zhao couldn't react to Ji Yue's moist red eyes: "Sorry for me? Why do you feel sorry for me?"

Ji Yue's suppressed emotions suddenly burst out. It was difficult to take it back after that, and she spoke word by word: "It's just...yesterday I...yesterday I lost my temper at my sister..."

Ji Yue sobbed, and her originally drooping eyes looked even more aggrieved when she looked at people with tears in her eyes. : "I'm sorry."

Seeing Ji Yue's aggrieved look, Qi Zhao felt pitiful and a little funny at the same time. He couldn't help but pretended to just know and teased him: "Really? Did you lose your temper with me yesterday? I just found out. This matter."

Ji Yue nodded seriously when she heard this, and admitted her mistake honestly and bravely: "Well, I shouldn't have left without listening to what you said yesterday."

Ji Yue thought that she was not at the stadium . Those people showed their sharp spikes in front of them and played tricks on Qi Zhao, and their vision became blurry again.

He raised his hand to wipe his eyes and explained for himself: "I didn't mean to cry in front of my sister... I just couldn't help it."

In the days when Qi Zhao didn't show up, Ji Yue felt like she was being raped. People are frozen under the ice, floating and sinking, cut off from sunlight and air, unable to distinguish between day and night.

After Qi Zhao appeared, he smashed the ice on his head piece by piece, and then stretched out his hand to pull him out.

But yesterday, he personally pushed Qi Zhao away because of trivial matters and worthless jealousy.

After Ji Yue realized this incident during the day, she hated herself so much, but she was even more afraid that Qi Zhao would never ignore him again because of this incident.

Qi Zhao didn't know what Ji Yue was thinking. She just felt that the crying Ji Yue in front of her looked like a child who had just entered kindergarten.

When I apologize to others, I can't help but feel sad.

Afraid that Ji Yue might suffocate if she keeps crying like this, Qi Zhao reached out and took off his mask: "Stop crying. If you keep crying like this, your eyes will be swollen when you wake up tomorrow morning."

After exposing Ji Yue's whole face, Qi Zhao said I noticed that his nose was also stained red.

Ji Yue's skin color is very white, and the colors on her eyes, nose, and eyebrows are not blood red, but look like cherry pink.

When Qi Zhao stared at himself with tearful drooping eyes, Qi Zhao's heart softened a little.

Qi Zhao couldn't help but took Ji Yue's hand and took him back to his home.

She took Ji Yue to sit on the sofa first, took out a tissue and let him wipe the tears on his face.

She smiled and comforted him: "Don't cry, I won't be angry with you."

Although Ji Yue's favorability dropped sharply yesterday, she was a little surprised, but she was far from hating him.

Qi Zhao knew that Ji Yue was so jealous probably because she felt insecure.

Since Ji Yue returned to China, she has been like a stray animal that has not received much care, cautious and cowardly. How could Qi Zhao be angry with Ji Yue.

When Ji Yue heard Qi Zhao say that she would not be angry with him, she balled up the tear-soaked tissue in her hand, stared into her eyes, and then spoke cautiously: "...Then sister will ignore me. "?"

Qi Zhao smiled and shook his head: "No, if I had ignored you, I wouldn't have brought you to my house just now."

Ji Yue's mood slowly stabilized at this moment, and she heard Qi Zhao's words. He nodded silently.

I don't know if it's to show that I understand, or to comfort myself.

Ji Yue was taller than ordinary men, but sitting quietly in the corner of the sofa with her head lowered reminded Qi Zhao of Xiao Xiao with her eyes lowered.

Qi Zhao looked at the time and then at Ji Yue, who was slowly calming down and no longer crying. He asked in a softer voice, "Would you like some milk? I'll go and heat a cup for you." He

started in his teens. The independent Ji Yue originally wanted to refuse subconsciously, not wanting to trouble Qi Zhao.

But when he met her eyes, he opened his mouth, and what came out of his mouth was: "Okay."

When Qi Zhao stood up, the corner of his clothes was suddenly pulled by someone.

She saw Ji Yue looking up at her, with a layer of moisture in her eyes that had not yet dissipated.

The long eyelashes cover the ends of the eyes, and his expression is exactly the same as that of the aggrieved Xiao Xiao.

Qi Zhao heard Ji Yue whisper: "...Can I go help you?"

He wanted to stay with Qi Zhao.

Qi Zhao had no reason to refuse: "Of course."

Originally, hot milk was an extremely simple project, and Qi Zhao could complete it alone.

But now because Ji Yue was following behind, Qi Zhao arranged a job for him to cut red dates.

When the cut red dates are put into the milk and boiled, the milky aroma with a hint of sweetness wafts out.

Ji Yue stood next to Qi Zhao and waited obediently, but at this moment, his stomach became disloyal again.

"Gulu——"

Ji Yue quickly covered her stomach after hearing the voice. Originally, there was only a hint of color in the corners of his eyes, but now his whole face and fingers turned red.

"Sister, I, I'm not hungry! I had dinner at night."

Qi Zhao couldn't help laughing when she saw Ji Yue's face getting redder and redder the more she defended herself. She poured hot milk into a cup and opened the refrigerator: "It's okay. It's all fired up. It's easy to make something to eat."

Qi Zhao looked at the ingredients in the refrigerator and asked him, "Can clear soup noodles be used?"

Ji Yue, who blushed like a tomato, didn't dare to look at Qi Zhao with his eyes down. He nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

When Qi Zhao waited for the water to boil and put the noodles in and stirred, the moist and warm steam hit her face. She suddenly remembered what Qin Zhuo had just said on the phone.

She turned to look at Ji Yue.

... Everything Qin Zhuo was worried about seems to have happened now.

There is indeed a man in her house, and this man is indeed her "brother."

Qi Zhao didn't dare to think about what kind of terrifying Shura field it would be if these two people encountered each other.

Ji Yue, who was standing next to Qi Zhao obediently and watching Qi Zhao's every move, saw her looking at someone she thought she needed help from, and immediately stood up and said, "Sister, is there anything I can do for you?"

"Yes." Qi Zhao scooped the cooked and floating noodles into a bowl with pre-seasoned ingredients, took out a pair of chopsticks and said to Ji Yue, "Help me finish the bowl of noodles and then clean the bowl for me."

Ji Yue's eyes brightened. He nodded and showed his first smile today: "Okay."

Qi Zhao looked at Ji Yue eating noodles quietly, but he was silently calculating in his heart.

If Ji Yue and Qin Zhuo meet one day, she should be able to stop the Shura field between them.

...

...should be possible, right?

Qi Zhao was so worried that he didn't even know when Ji Yue finished eating the noodles.

Qi Zhao knew Ji Yue's appetite so she specially cooked noodles for two people, but when she came to her senses, she found that Ji Yue's bowl was empty.

Qi Zhao glanced at Ji Yue, who was drinking hot red date milk, and raised her eyes and asked him: "Are you full?"

Ji Yue nodded quickly: "You are full."

After Ji Yue drank up the milk in a few sips, she took the dishes, chopsticks and cup and wanted to go to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

Qi Zhao looked up and saw a few drops of hot milk hanging from Ji Yue's mouth. He took out a tissue and laughed: "Don't worry about the bowl for now, you still have some milk on your face."

Ji Yue's ears started to feel hot again when he heard this. He wanted to take the tissue from Qi Zhao's hand, but he couldn't free up his hands with the bowl and chopsticks in one hand and the cup in the other.

Just when Ji Yue was about to put down the bowl, he saw Qi Zhao standing up and walking in front of him.

Qi Zhao raised his hand very naturally and wiped the sweet moisture from his face with a tissue.

Qi Zhao's eyes were focused, without any trace of charm.

Ji Yue blushed with embarrassment. After Qi Zhao stopped moving, she quickly turned her head away. She lowered her eyes and did not dare to look at her. She rushed into the kitchen as if she was running away: "I, I, I'm going now, I'm going to wash the dishes."

[It is detected that the male protagonist [Ji Yue] has obvious emotional fluctuations. ]

As soon as the system's formulaic announcement ended, it immediately changed into a tone of reproach and warning: [Qi Zhao! Although Qin Zhuo is about to succeed in his strategy, you can't start teasing Ji Yue now. This is against the rules! ]

Qi Zhao was a little confused: "I didn't flirt with Ji Yue, I just wiped his mouth."

The system was confused when he heard this: [Isn't this called flirting? ! As Qin Zhuo's girlfriend, you have never wiped Qin Zhuo's mouth, not to mention that Ji Yue is just your ordinary friend. Is this action a bit over the line? ]

"..."

Qi Zhao couldn't find the words to refute for a while.

But when she was wiping Ji Yue's mouth just now, she really didn't think of anything in her mind and subconsciously raised her hand.

Faced with the system's warning, Qi Zhao first admitted his fault: "Okay, I understand, I will pay attention to it in the future."

Then he asked: "Has Ji Yue's favorability increased now?"

A very easy-to-coax system . He calmed down instantly and looked at the data in the background: [It has risen to sixty again. Qi

Zhao, who was talking to the system, didn't know when Ji Yue finished washing the dishes and walked out of the kitchen.

His ears seemed to be redder than when he entered, and he did not dare to look at Qi Zhao. After looking at the clock and realizing that it was not early, he said to Qi Zhao: "...Then I will go home first."

His voice was a little soft, although He raised his head but still didn't dare to look into Qi Zhao's eyes.

Seeing Ji Yue like this, Qi Zhao stopped teasing him and said goodbye: "Okay, good night."

After Ji Yue left, Qi Zhao finally had time to wash up. When she returned to the room from the bathroom, she found that she had put it on the bed. The phone screen lights up, as if a message has just been received.

Qi Zhao opened his phone and found a missed call on the screen.

The sender was Gu Ci.

Qi Zhao took a deep breath.

What's going on tonight?

Are you organizing a group to catch up on business?

Qi Zhao suddenly remembered that she had told Gu Ci at the door of the pet hospital that if Xiaoxiao didn't want to eat, he could call her.

Qi Zhao realized that it might be about a small matter, so he quickly opened his phone and clicked into the chat interface with Gu Ci.

Gu Ci sent her a message before making the video call, which read:

[Gu Ci: Sorry, I didn't want to disturb you. It's just that I just got home and found something happened to Xiaoxiao, so I wanted to call you. 】

Qi Zhao immediately called back when he saw this.

Gu Ci answered quickly, and Qi Zhao saw Gu Ci flipping the camera before he could see his face clearly.

Xiaoxiao's eyes were closed on the cat climbing frame, and his beard was trembling with breath.

The tone of Gu Ci's home is still monotonous, black, white and gray, but the colors on the little kitten's climbing frame have become colorful.

Yellow and blue dolls can be seen everywhere in the active area within the scope of the camera.

Qi Zhao saw Xiao Xiao who was withering and shrugging, and immediately called out: "Xiao Xiao."

Xiao Xiao's ears twitched when he heard Qi Zhao's voice, he opened his eyes and stood up, but did not see Qi Zhao's person. Then he lay down again.

Xiaoxiao even turned around and faced the camera with her butt.

When Qi Zhao saw Xiao Xiao's state, he immediately became worried and asked Gu Ci: "Mr. Gu, why does Xiao Xiao look listless? Is he hungry? Or is he sick?"

Gu Ci was quiet for two seconds. Then he spoke: "It's not sick. It also ate some freeze-dried food at night."

Qi Zhao became even more worried after hearing this: "Then why does Xiaoxiao look so lethargic?"

Gu Ci was quiet for a long time before speaking, and the pause was long. Somewhat weird.

When Qi Zhao became anxious and impatient, he heard Gu Ci say: "Xiao Xiao maybe, I'm angry with you."

Qi Zhao was stunned for a few seconds when he heard the words, and then repeated with some uncertainty after regaining consciousness. One sentence: "...Xiao Xiao is angry with me?"

Qi Zhao felt confused when he heard this, but he was also a little curious about why Gu Ci came to this conclusion: "How did Mr. Gu know?"

Gu Ci He didn't say anything, he just moved the camera.

After the picture was fixed, Qi Zhao saw a mess.

Colorful dolls are scattered everywhere.

The cat scratches on the black leather sofa in the center of the picture are very obvious. Qi Zhao can even see the white lining of the sofa through the camera.

The oversized living room, which was originally mostly black and gray, became a bit snowy because of the toilet paper that could be seen everywhere on the floor.

The toilet paper strips were either piled in small piles or stretched into a line. Like the depth in the snow.

The water escaping from the broken vase in the center of the living room added a bit of vividness to the snowy scene.

There were more scars on the surveillance robot, and the carrot doll lying next to the robot also had a lot of balls visible to the naked eye.

Gu Ci said on the other end of the phone: "It woke up that day and started scratching everywhere without seeing you. I asked someone to clean it up and then came home like this again."

Qi Zhao:...?

After realizing what Gu Ci meant, Qi Zhao felt inexplicably want to laugh.

Xiaoxiao was obviously angry with himself, so why was it Gu Ci who suffered?

Qi Zhao couldn't hide the smile in his voice and asked: "So Mr. Gu said that when Xiaoxiao was in trouble, he called me because he wanted me to deal with the matter of Xiaoxiao's anger, not the matter of Xiaoxiao not eating?"

"Yeah , it can eat normally today."

Gu Ci responded and said, "Maybe it's because he exercised more and is hungry."

Qi Zhao heard Gu Ci's serious speculation and imagined him standing in a tall suit in a mess. He looked calm, tightening his lips and trying to suppress the raised corners of his mouth.

Qi Zhao, who was afraid that he would laugh out loud if he continued imagining it, quickly changed the subject and said, "Okay, then I'll see if I can coax Xiaoxiao well."

"Yeah."

Gu Ci responded and put the phone in front of Xiaoxiao. Flip the camera so that you can see Qi Zhao's face.

Xiaoxiao raised his eyelids and glanced at the screen, then stood up and slowly changed positions.

Xiaoxiao still pointed his butt towards Qi Zhao, but his raised ears betrayed him.

Qi Zhao couldn't help being impressed by Xiao Xiao's cuteness. He laughed twice before expressing weakness and begging for forgiveness: "Good Xiao Xiao, good Xiao Xiao, I didn't mean to leave. Please forgive me, okay?"

Although Xiao Xiao looked angry Big, but surprisingly easy to coax.

When it heard Qi Zhao say that he would come see him again if he had the chance, he immediately raised his tail.

The cat couldn't hold it in any longer, so it walked to the phone and rubbed Qi Zhao through the screen: "Meow~"

Qi Zhao talked with Xiaoxiao for a while before Xiaoxiao left.

After Qi Zhao coaxed Xiaoxiao away, he became worried again just a second after he relaxed.

She has to leave after the mission is completed. Xiaoxiao can't always rely on herself so much.

After all, its owner is still Gu Ci.

Qi Zhao asked one more question before the phone was hung up: "Mr. Gu, have you chatted with Xiaoxiao recently?"

She had to find a way to get Gu Ci and Xiaoxiao closer as soon as possible.

After hearing the words, Gu Ci thought for two seconds and said, "Yes."

Qi Zhao felt relieved a little: "That's good. If Mr. Gu keeps chatting with Xiaoxiao about life, over time Xiaoxiao will become more and more familiar with you. I'm getting more familiar with you."

Gu Ci was stunned for two seconds, and then spoke with a hint of doubt in his voice: "You want to talk about...life?"

Qi Zhao was a little confused when he heard his words: "Mr. Gu, are you chatting with Xiao Xiao? What are we talking about about life?"

Gu Ci pursed his lips when he heard this and did not answer directly: "Okay, I understand."

Qi Zhao became more curious and guessed: "Mr. Gu is not talking about Linchuan with Xiaoxiao. Is that okay?"

If this is the case, Qi Zhao can understand why Xiaoxiao likes him more than Gu Ci.

Although Xiaoxiao can understand some human language, he definitely doesn't understand the company's operations!

"No."

Qi Zhao just breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Gu Ci's denial, and heard him say again: "It's some financial information."

It was a topic he was best at.

...

Mr. Gu, Xiaoxiao is just a cat!

Qi Zhao gave Gu Ci a few more words before hanging up the phone, clearly telling him that no kitten would be interested in financial knowledge.

Although Gu Ci's voice was a little disappointed, he finally promised not to discuss this topic with Xiaoxiao again in the future.

After Qi Zhao hung up the phone, he looked at the ceiling and sighed.

Tonight, the male protagonist's stew has caught up with her three-day strategy progress.

Qi Zhao, who had dealt with three male protagonists in three hours, was exhausted both physically and mentally.

Just as she was about to get into bed and fall asleep, her phone suddenly rang three times in a row.

Qi Zhao unlocked the phone and saw three red dots appearing on the screen.

[Gu Ci: Thank you. ]

[Qin Zhuo: Go to bed early, see you tomorrow. ]

[Ji Yue: Sister, the noodles tonight are delicious. ]

Qi Zhao: ...How come she smelled a hint of the future Shura field in these three arranged messages?
