I haven't come back for three days, and the office has changed drastically.
Qu Mingcong and Wang Wei dragged their luggage in and found that the entire wall had been decorated as a cat climbing frame.
The cat cage, cat nest, and cat scratching board have all been upgraded. There is also a solid wood tree standing in the corner, and several cat hammocks are installed on the tree branches. It can be seen that Xu Xinqi has invested a lot of money.
"I almost thought I went to the wrong door," Wang Wei complained, "Why do you act like a cat cafe..."
Xu Xinqi is not in the store. She doesn't come every day, and the time she comes every time is uncertain.
However, several cats raised in the store have already remembered the two of them, and one after another came over to rub their trouser legs with their tails raised.
Wang Wei picked up one and held it in his arms. He leaned back on the sofa and felt extremely comfortable. "Ah...it's still more comfortable in my own nest~"
Qu Mingcong squatted down, opened his suitcase and packed his things. They bought some specialties in Xianghai and brought them back, and they needed to share them.
The glass door behind him was opened, and the visitor said excitedly: "Xiao Qi! The canned cat you wanted to buy last time has arrived today!"
Qu Mingcong turned his head and looked around. He was a doctor from the pet hospital next door. He had a new face that he had never seen before, but the white coat he was wearing had a pet hospital logo brooch hanging on it.
"...I'm sorry," the young doctor saw that there were only two of them in the room. He was stunned and smiled awkwardly, "I saw that the lights were on in your store, so I thought it was Xiaoqi there."
Wang Wei looked unhappy and said, "She's not here."
When the cat in his arms saw the doctor, he was even more affectionate than when he saw him. His tail was raised into a straight "1", and he meowed and ran over to rub the doctor's trouser legs.
The other party bent down and touched it, then greeted the cat with a smile: "Crisp cake, rice cake."
Wang Wei couldn't control the sourness in his tone: "I've only been gone for a few days, have you already chosen a name?"
"Oh...it was taken by Xiaoqi," the pet doctor didn't know if he was naturally slow. He didn't seem to notice anything was wrong with Wang Wei, so he explained, "The black one is just rice cake, the yellow and white one is called rice cake, and the female one is called rice cake."
The cat was adopted and taken away, did Xiaoqi tell you?"
Wang Wei curled his lips and replied: "No."
"That's it..." The other party smiled coquettishly, "Then I'll go back first, and you guys can get busy. When Xiaoqi comes, please tell her that the canned cat she's been waiting for has arrived."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and went back to the next door.
Qu Mingcong watched the other party leave, and then looked at Wang Wei who looked depressed on the sofa, and couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Are you panicking now? If you don't hurry up, Xiaoqi will be chased away." He joked.
Wang Wei replied with a downcast face: "How do you know that person is chasing her? Maybe he is a male best friend? I understand Xu Xinqi, she is unlikely to fall in love in the near future."
Qu Mingcong smiled: "Oh, I'm pretty calm."
"You don't believe it?" Wang Wei took out his cell phone, "If you don't believe it, I'll call her now and ask her."
I called as soon as I was told and the call was answered quickly.
Xu Xinqi on the other end of the phone asked: "What are you doing? Are you getting off the plane?"
Wang Wei asked her in a serious tone: "Xu Xinqi, do you remember what you said when we broke up?"
Xu Xinqi was stunned, "...what?"
Wang Wei reminded her: "When we broke up, you said that men don't have any good things, and you won't touch men even if you eat shit from now on. Do you keep your word?"
A heavy intake of breath came from the phone, followed by a roar: "Wang, you are f*cking sick!"
The phone was hung up.
Wang Wei looked at Qu Mingcong, "Look, I said it right, right?"
Qu Mingcong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He gave him a thumbs up gesture and expressed sincere admiration: "Tall, really tall."
…
Wang Wei and Xu Xinqi have been separated and reunited countless times. Breaking up and getting back together is just a joke. Qu Mingcong has no need to worry about them.
Not only am I not worried, but I am also a little envious.
I envy them that they can face a living body, a real voice, and project their emotions on a concrete person, and everything is controllable.
If you develop a liking for someone and want to develop further, isn't it natural?
Therefore, those who fall in love online, after communicating through text, want to chat via text, after hearing voices, want videos, and after getting to know faces, they want to meet in the real world and approach multi-dimensional life from a flat screen.
Love will also fall into place.
Qu Mingcong feels that he is a normal person with normal needs, and he likes her in his heart, so he will naturally seriously consider their future.
But why does she always reject it?
Why...doesn't she have any further desire? Instead, she is just satisfied with the company of her mobile phone.
When Qu Mingcong thought of this, his mood was somewhat affected. He felt that her feelings for him were childish and superficial.
Then I felt that it was so naive to care about the amount of emotion...
…
Qu Mingcong dragged his suitcase home, and the nanny and Qu Wan were making buns at home.
Qu Wan didn't know how to make pasta. The nanny taught her step by step. She was bored at home anyway. Qu Wan studied very seriously. Her focused look looked like a primary school student taking a handicraft class.
The two of them were wrapping bags in the living room while watching TV series. When Qu Mingcong came back, most of them were already wrapped.
"I brought back specialties." Qu Mingcong saw the wrapped buns and said with a smile, "There happen to be two bags of roast duck among the specialties. Aunt Deng, when you steam the buns, steam the two bags of duck together."
"Okay!" the nanny agreed happily, "I'll fry some vinegared cabbage and make seaweed and egg drop soup. It'll be perfect to eat with steamed buns and roast duck."
The nanny got up, wiped her hands, and walked to the kitchen, "You have a rest, I'll cut some fruit for you, so you can rest your belly first."
Qu Mingcong opened his suitcase to get the specialties. Out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of the fruit basket on the table, and couldn't help but ask: "Who sent it?"
While making the buns, Qu Wan replied: "Your cousin sent it."
Qu Mingcong was stunned when he heard this, and turned to look at Qu Wan, "...cousin? Which cousin?"
When he asked this question, Qu Wan was also a little confused and replied: "I have a bad memory. How can I remember? Do you have many cousins?"
"Mom, I have never heard you say that I have a cousin," Qu Mingcong looked at Qu Wan helplessly, "This is the first time I have heard that I have a cousin in all these years."
Because Qu Wan was born out of wedlock, her relationship with her family was very tense. Therefore, Qu Mingcong had never seen his grandparents when he was a child, nor had any contact with relatives in the Qu family. Now that a cousin suddenly appears, it is really disturbing.
It's hard for people to understand.
Qu Wan was confused, "Did I make a mistake? It shouldn't be..."
The nanny also came out of the kitchen, "Yes, it can't be wrong. The names are correct. As soon as I walked in, I said I came to visit my aunt and brought some fruit. He is a very polite young man. Could he be from your family?"
Distant relatives, do you want to stop thinking about them?"
There were surveillance cameras in the living room and bedroom at home. Qu Mingcong turned on his mobile phone to check the surveillance cameras and asked: "When did the other party come? What's his name?"
"He came yesterday afternoon," the nanny said uneasily. "He didn't give his name. He just said he was Qu Mingcong's cousin... Could it be a scam?"
Qu Mingcong couldn't help but frowned when he saw yesterday's surveillance video.
Because he found that the person who came was actually the boy wearing a white down jacket that he met when he left the community last time.
