[As long as we can hold on until the end of the snowy night, this fateful catastrophe will be over.]
Qingyou closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and did not respond to the plan the system said.
Although this plan sounds simple, if you really want to implement it, you will find that there are too many hidden factors that have not been resolved.
The first is the Snow Night Robbery. There are 12 hours in a night, and his suit thugs can only be used for one hour. Once the duration is over, he will be a lamb to be slaughtered.
Besides, he couldn't be sure whether there would be two, or even a third or fourth girl besides the eldest lady who would suddenly jump out in the snowy night and stab him.
Besides, given the strong character of the young lady, it is not certain whether they can wait until the snowy night to avoid having sex.
In short, everything is unknown, and hope is slim.
Qingyou exhaled lightly, opened his eyes, and regained his composure. "That's it for now, Master Tong. We'll take one step and then see."
What can we do when there is little hope? Right now, this is the best and only way to deal with it.
----
The sun is about to set, the sunset glow in the sky is like melting gold, and the floating clouds are also dyed with the same color
Qingyou stood in front of his front door with a serious expression on his face. Sweat was oozing out of his palms as he held the door handle. He was indescribably nervous and anxious.
[Host, don't be scared, just keep a normal mind and pretend you never knew about this. ]
The system in his mind encouraged him.
"Yeah." Qingyou nodded heavily, took a deep breath, and silently repeated to himself ten times to stay calm.
Finally, I mustered up my courage, held the door handle and slowly opened the door.
"crunch-"
The sound of the door opening in his eardrums was infinitely amplified. All he could see was an ordinary gate, but his heart was beating uncontrollably.
"I, I'm back..."
I pretended to be calm and shouted into the house, trying to keep it normal, but the voice was as low as a mosquito, so small that it couldn't be any smaller.
[Host, what the hell are you doing!! You call this normal? ? ] The system was panicked and anxious when seeing the boy's behavior, [Anyone can find out that something is wrong, let alone a cunning young lady. If you are in front of others like this, you will be exposed in a few moves! ! ]
"Stop making noise!! I know"
Taking a few deep breaths again, Qingyou tried her best to suppress the anxiety in her heart and tried her best to make herself look more natural.
But he subconsciously slowed down his pace when he entered Xuanmen Pass, and his nervousness could be seen through by ordinary people at a glance.
【Host! ! ! 】
Qingyou coughed awkwardly, "I understand, I understand, Master Tong, please stop making noise."
Looking at the bright lights in the inner room, he tightened his fingers around the shoulder bag strap, put his other hand on his chest and patted it, trying to adjust his mood for the third time.
Don't panic, don't panic, Tada Kiyoyu, you have been reborn 25 times, you have experienced all kinds of storms, stay calm, you must stay calm
Isn’t it just acting? How can you not be better than a little girl? Believe in yourself, you can do it!
I secretly gave myself a boost, with a determined look in my eyes.
I clenched my fist, changed my shoes and walked into the living room with a fearless attitude.
"Miss Gui Yan, I'm going back..."
With a smile on his face, he was about to say hello, but he saw that the girl had already fallen asleep on the sofa.
"Miss..."
Looking at her curled up on the sofa, Qingyou's fake smile faded. She held the strap of her shoulder bag in one hand and walked over with light steps.
In the quiet environment, he walked closer and could hear the girl's shallow breathing.
The other person was still wearing the school uniform, with long dark hair spread out, which made him look less cold and hard than when he was working during the day, and more gentle.
I looked away and found that her eyes were red, her rosy lips were a little pale, and her long and thick eyelashes were still dangling with a few crystal tears. Maybe she had cried a while ago.
The whole person curled up together, holding her hands tightly together, as if this was the only way to bring her the remaining warmth.
Fragile and helpless
Looking at this girl, Qingyou frowned slightly.
——Can’t you just go back to your room and sleep? You’ll catch a cold.
He couldn't help thinking this in his heart. He bent down and subconsciously wanted to carry the girl back to the bedroom. But just when he stretched out his hand, he suddenly came to his senses.
What am I doing...?
Staring blankly at his arm suspended in mid-air, a trace of confusion flashed across his eyes.
Why do I do this unconsciously? Hasn't this kind of intimate action and contact already gone beyond the scope of friendship?
Why, I just reacted now..
Putting down his arms, Qingyou fell silent and fell into a speechless silence.
After a few breaths, he slowly stood up, walked into the bedroom without saying a word, took out a blanket and covered the girl with it.
Dim the lights in the living room, then tiptoe to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
The system in my head dared not make a sound, and was so scared that I didn't even dare to breathe.
Why did the boy only react now? Wasn't it because of it?
If it had said not to dote on the young lady so much, this situation wouldn't have happened.
Alas, it's all its fault, it admits it, woo woo woo
At the same time, Qingyou opened the refrigerator and took out the frozen ingredients, put them in the sink to thaw, then cut the onion, ginger and garlic on the chopping board, and prepared the seasoning in the saucer.
After finishing all this, he turned on the range hood and stove. When he was about to pour oil to warm the pot, a scene he inadvertently caught made him pause and he was stunned for a moment.
Why are all the dishes that the young lady likes to eat?
I looked down at the sauce dish next to it and saw that the sauces inside were all light in taste.
Turn off the stove and walk to the sink. The thawed meat is all the Missy's favorite.
Qingyou supported the porcelain table with one hand, and his calm face was gradually replaced by a complicated expression.
When did he cook dishes that cater to someone's taste? He was not like that before.
Four dishes and one soup, two of which are my favorites and the other two are her favorites. This was stipulated in the previous terms and conditions of the contract.
Didn't I always do this before? Why did it become the taste that girls like now? The worst thing is that I just realized it now.
Inexplicably, Qingyou suddenly remembered a sentence
There will always be someone who will inadvertently integrate into your life, and your every word and action will be influenced by the other person, until you are completely accustomed to it and can no longer escape the web she has laid, but you are still completely unaware of it.
"Bang--"
The sound of the chopping board falling to the floor brought Qingyou back to his senses. He blinked his eyes and realized that his breathing had become very rapid, so rapid that his heartbeat became disordered.
Covering his chest, he shook his head, feeling his throat unusually dry
He turned around and prepared to go to the living room to get a glass of water, but the girl's face came into his sight just as he walked out of the kitchen door.
She looked at herself expressionlessly, her lips still pale and not yet red, her bare feet on the floor
"Miss Guiyan." Qingyou gave her a rather forced smile, "Why don't you wear slippers? The ground is cold, you'll catch a cold."
Glancing to the left, he saw the slippers that the girl had thrown beside the sofa. He wanted to get them for the young lady, but just as he took a step forward, the girl's delicate feet stepped back half a step.
This step made Qingyou freeze in place, with his hands stretched out in the air, feeling a little embarrassed and at a loss.
When he came, he imagined all the ways the girls might treat him.
Maybe I would argue with him, maybe I would throw a tantrum, or maybe I would just push him down on the sofa...
But he never thought that the girl would look at him with the most indifferent eyes while avoiding him like a snake and scorpion, retreating away.
Chapter 42: Just Friends
angry?
Not
There was an inexplicable feeling gathering in his chest, it was very complicated, but it made him feel very uncomfortable.
"Have you had dinner?" His stiff face returned to normal a second later, and he forced a smile, "I'm just about to make it. It will be ready in a while. Do you want to eat something?"
Gui Yanxinmei did not respond, but nodded. Her beautiful eyes were still the same as they were at noon, but without the light on the surface.
It is no longer as magnificent and stunning as the sunset glow when the sea and sky merge into one, but like a puppet without a soul, empty and dull.
At this moment, my heart seemed to be tightly grasped by a huge hand, and I felt very uncomfortable.
Looking at the girl who was about to leave, Qingyou asked in a dull tone, "Miss Guiyan, can you tell me what happened? I'm really worried about you."
Gui Yanxinmei didn't reply to him. Her delicate bare feet walked on the soft tile floor. The force was very light, but a faint "tapping" sound could be heard.
As for myself, I am just a decoration, like an air person with no sense of existence.
This realization made his heart tighten even more as if it were being pulled by a giant hand. He felt uncomfortable and almost couldn't breathe.
Looking at the girl's pretty figure, Qingyou couldn't help but say, "What's the harm in answering? Aren't we the best friends of the opposite sex?"
He understood the girl's feelings for him, and also knew the root cause of her becoming this abnormal.
But he didn't dare to say it out loud, nor did he dare to point it out. He could only pretend that he knew nothing and comfort her with the lameest excuses.
The words fell in the quiet living room, and Gui Yanxin's beautiful back paused. She did not turn around, but just glanced back.
Qingyou saw that there were still a few tears hanging on the thick and long eyelashes, and the eye sockets were red, but the voice was dead silent, cold and a little hoarse.
"I am fine."
Just one word made Qingyou stunned for a long time.
-
In the kitchen, Qingyou stood by the sink, absentmindedly washing vegetables.
"Master Tong, can you analyze the young lady's current condition?"
Thinking back to the girl's attitude just now, she really had no idea what he was thinking at the moment. According to her personality, shouldn't she forcefully ask him what he was thinking?
How come the roles are reversed now, and it's his turn to guess the girl's psychology?
[Emm, don’t ask me about this. I don’t know either.]
The system replied helplessly, "The eldest lady's reaction was completely beyond my expectations. She was neither noisy nor noisy, but as calm as a dead person. This is really inconsistent with her usual personality."
[But the only thing that is certain is that she must be very sad now. ]
"Are you sad?" Qingyou was washing vegetables and lost in thought.
[Yes, after all, she has lived with you for so long, and her favorability has reached its peak.] The system continued to express its own opinions, [Plus, the host has been pampering her and treating her well these days, so how could the girl who already has unrequited love not think too much.]
When the system finished saying this, it was obviously a little guilty.
"Okay, got it." Qingyou ignored its embarrassment, turned off the tap, and poured the vegetables from the basket into the pot to boil.
Seeing that he was neither angry nor angry, the system gradually calmed down and continued to analyze, "After all, the relationship between the two of you has always been ambiguous, and you, the host, have never said it clearly, so from her perspective, she thinks that you must be interested in her. 】
"But my remarks this afternoon completely shattered Miss's previous perceptions." Qingyou naturally took over the conversation, "making her very sad and upset. Is that right, Master Tong?"
【Yes. 】
The system responded, [Think about it, anyone would be sad to hear their favorite person say such words. ]
As he listened to the examples it gave, a gleam of light flashed in Qingyou's dark pupils, and his expression gradually became clear.
After a moment of silence, he raised his doubts, "If it were just this, I would understand, but the look Miss just showed cannot be described as sadness at all."
As he spoke, his expression changed. "It's like he's losing his vitality, like a patient with terminal cancer."
"Master Tong, what is this situation?"
[Tsk, didn’t I say that? Don’t ask me about this. I don’t know.] The system smacked its lips, [After all, the young lady is not an ordinary person. It’s good enough that we can analyze one or two problems. If we really want to know her true thoughts, we have to ask her in person.]
Hearing this, Qingyou frowned and did not reply.
