Monster Apartment

Chapter 41: Xiaobai, have you grown taller?

Views:

The weather forecast was very accurate. As soon as Gu Bai and the others finished their meal, the sky darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye, followed by lightning and thunder. After two minutes, the rain curtain that blurred the world and the city cracked. down.

Gu Bai put down the tableware and hurried to the balcony, closing the window tightly.

He listened to the sound of raindrops hitting the window, bang bang, with the violent wind, it was a pool of splashing water on the glass.

Gu Bai stood on the balcony and watched for a while, and then suddenly remembered that the window of his room was still open, so he hurriedly ran out from the balcony, passed through the living room and dining room, and rushed towards his room with his slippers. .

Si Yiming and Xie Zhi didn't care, they were still talking nonsense.

Mr. Xie seems to be quite skilled in how to follow Mr. Si's hair, and he can even complain about the strange cases he encountered recently.

Of course, the key information was obfuscated - this gentleman always upheld such a shaky professionalism even when faced with a beast that didn't care about human beings at all.

As soon as the door of Gu Bai's room opened, the two divine beasts outside froze.

Xie Zhi turned his head and glanced at the door that Gu Bai had opened, faintly aware that there was an unusual aura in it.

Si Yiming stared at it for two seconds, then withdrew his gaze: "It's a gadget from Old Jade."

Xie Zhi nodded and suddenly said, "Old Jade has grabbed that painting."

Si Yiming nodded.

They were quite concerned about the competition between the monsters for Gu Bai's picture.

That painting is not as good as imagined for the monsters. At best, it can be placed as a source of spiritual energy. It is precious, and it is indeed precious, but it is not enough to be worth fighting for.

The reason why I am so eager to ask for it must be to use this matter to leave an impression on the original author.

The abacus was pretty good.

"It's almost time for you to come forward," Si Yiming reminded.

Xie Zhi nodded: "Go to the property tomorrow."

After Gu Bai closed the window and came back, Xie Zhi asked him, "Have you been free to paint anything else recently?"

Gu Bai was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "Not yet."

Gu Bai still has three chapters of grassland elements in his hand and has not yet started to write, but he has been painting the sunset picture with high hopes for more than half a month, but it is still far away from completion.

There are too many details to pay attention to in figurative oil paintings. Gu Bai conservatively estimates that after finishing the work at the Prairie Art Exhibition, he will have to paint for at least a month.

And after the work was over, the first thing he did was not finish the painting, but to go to his father.

The senior brother said that the imperial capital exhibition that he was going to fly with was at the end of December. Gu Bai pointed out that he had plenty of time and was not in a hurry at all.

Xie Zhi simply nodded after hearing Gu Bai saying that he was not free.

He just didn't want Gu Bai to be a model worker. It would be better to have a bigger shelf at the beginning, lest any ghosts and snakes dare to come over to paint.

Recently, Gu Bai has someone to accompany him to eat dinner every day. I don't know if it is because he is in a good mood, his appetite has become larger and larger in recent days, and he still feels a little hungry after eating three bowls of a meal.

Of course, this situation only appeared at dinner time, because the noon work meal was not attractive to Gu Bai, and it could not stimulate his appetite at all, but it was different at home. The quality of the ingredients and condiments in the apartment was the same. Much better than outside.

Taste too.

Gu Bai had his fourth meal today.

He has been cooking a lot recently due to the sudden increase in his appetite. Anyway, he can make fried rice for breakfast the next morning if he can't finish it, but he basically eats it all on the same day every time.

Si Yiming looked at Gu Bai's deliciously eating rice, and saw that Gu Bai, who had recently increased his appetite, was a little embarrassed.

Gu Bai explained in a low voice, "I don't know why I'm so hungry recently."

Si Yiming nodded and felt that there was nothing wrong with it: "Long body."

It is quite normal for a growing cub to desperately crave spiritual energy.

Gu Bai's spiritual energy is now like a 10,000-watt light bulb. If it weren't for the fact that he was in S City, and his body was enveloped by the breath of Pixiu, he would have been bitten by evil monsters or evil spirits. .

Any cub has to go through this dangerous stage, and it is the instinct of all cubs to find a way to quickly cross the growth period.

As for the old jadeite set in Gu Bai's room, it is estimated that in a few days, it will be absorbed by the cubs whose appetite has greatly increased.

After dinner, Xie Zhi ran to wash the dishes as usual, while Si Yiming was sitting on the sofa watching TV and fishing. Occasionally, Mr. Si would come with some documents that needed to be stamped by him, and he would simply be in Gu Bai's study. office.

The user of Gu Bai's study was never Gu Bai himself, and even Gu Bai never went in except for cleaning.

In addition to the art-related books on the bookshelf in the study room, the rest of the space has been occupied by the financial tome and messy document bags brought by Si Yiming from time to time.

There are also several seals belonging to Si Yiming on the desk.

And they are no longer wearing disposable slippers in Gu Bai's house. Zhai Liangjun, Si Yiming and Xie Zhi have their own slippers.

Although the flowers on the slippers are pink rabbits, white rabbits and blue rabbits, it is hard for the demon to describe, but the three bosses are still satisfied for the time being.

In addition, there are traces of other people everywhere in Gu Bai's house.

For example, the new coat rack at the door is for the three people who often wear suits.

For example, the small massage chair next to the sofa, which was prepared by Gu Bai after hearing Mr. Zhai complaining of back pain from running around.

For example, the three-version map of China hung on the wall, which Gu Bai put up after finding that Mr. Si occasionally took out his mobile phone to check the map.

Another example is a small bookshelf full of idle books next to the TV. Gu Bai put it on after he realized that Mr. Xie really likes reading illogical romance novels, and he put it on the lower table in the living room very intimately. A reading light that can be stretched and moved at will.

Gu Bai doesn't have a strong sense of territory. As long as he doesn't disturb the layout of his studio on the second floor, Gu Bai is very happy to see traces of other people's lives in his home.

How lively!

Gu Bai would be so happy to think every time, with the existence of those traces, he will no longer live alone!

No matter how you live your life, you will pass, but to make yourself happy, Gu Bai is of course willing to live happily.

For the past month, Gu Bai always smiled when he climbed into bed. Even though the rain was crackling outside the window and the wind was blowing, he felt the warm yellow lights in the room were extraordinarily warm.

It was night, and the rain crackled in the dimly lit room.

Gu Bai huddled in the quilt, undisturbed by the wind and rain, and slept soundly.

He put the box with the jade jewelry on the table, and there were a few traces of green from the gap, and the green spread like silk threads, quietly reaching into Gu Bai's quilt.

After a while, the green color gradually disintegrated, and the old jade in the tightly closed box became smaller than the naked eye.

Gu Bai woke up early the next day, but he didn't feel the slightest lack of sleep. Instead, he was full of energy, without any sleepiness or fatigue.

It's like drinking Red Bull, full of infinite vitality!

He took out his phone and glanced at it, it was only six o'clock.

Gu Bai rolled twice on the bed, and finally got up reluctantly.

This time, the heavy rainfall was accompanied by fierce winds, pea-sized raindrops fell down, and the rain curtain was also blown down by the wind wave after wave.

Gu Bai shook the umbrella in his hand and held it open. Just two steps out, the umbrella he bought for ten yuan was blown over, and the rain poured over his head and covered his face.

Gu Bai backed away, shook his wet hair, and looked down at the only rain gear in his hand, worried.

Xie Zhi happened to come out of the elevator, and saw Gu Bai standing at the door with no idea what to do.

Gu Bai was taken aback and turned around to look at Xie Zhi. At the same time, Si Yiming, who had just exchanged good morning with Gu Bai on the sixth floor, stuck his head out, looked at his expression, and said that he was being called out like this. , the mood does not seem to be very good.

The monsters in and out of the building were as quiet as chickens, daring to speak.

Si Yiming had a cold face, staring at the thank you downstairs, with an expression of "I'll beat you if it's not a big deal".

Xie Zhi was not false at all, he raised his head and said, "It's raining too much, send Gu Xiaobai off!"

The unpleasantness on Si Yiming's face paused, and he turned his head to glance at Gu Bai, who was soaking wet beside Xie Zhi, nodded, and said to Gu Bai, who looked up at him, "Come back and change clothes."

The voice sounded a little angry, but the expression was much better.

Xie Zhi patted Gu Bai's wet shoulder: "Go."

Gu Bai nodded, went back and changed his clothes and came out. Si Yiming covered his head with a raincoat.

Umbrellas are useless in this weather.

The raincoat is not necessarily useful, but the two together will always be better.

Gu Bai sat in the car, looked at the white rain curtain, and sighed: "When will the rain stop?"

Si Yiming glanced at the sky.

He really didn't know about this, he had to see when Canglong caught the Kui that ran out of the East China Sea.

"It's okay." Si Yiming said, "I'll send you when it rains."

"Aren't you busy?" Gu Bai asked.

Si Yiming nodded: "Unless there is an emergency, I'm not busy recently."

Gu Bai was not polite to him either, with a bright smile on his face: "Then I'll be polite!"

Gu Bai's work place this time is very close to his residence, and it only takes a short four-minute drive to get there.

Si Yiming saw Gu Bai put on his raincoat and was about to get out of the car, and said, "Are you going to the north with Zhai Liangjun after this incident is over?"

Gu Bai nodded, and immediately remembered that Si Yiming had said before that he would ask him for help, so he asked, "Is there something wrong with Mr. Si? Are you in a hurry?"

"No." Si Yiming shook his head, "If you go to the north, you can. There are places in the north where you can help, and I will go with you when the time comes."

Gu Bai didn't ask any more questions, simply nodded, and fastened the elastic band before preparing to open the door.

The parking place is only ten meters away from his work place, but the wind is blowing too hard, and raincoats are more reliable if you don't want to get soaked.

Si Yiming watched as Gu Bai opened the door, and added, "Send a text message after get off work, and I'll pick you up."

Gu Bai nodded: "Please, Mr. Si!"

Si Yiming watched as Gu Bai closed the door, his raincoat was swelled up by the wind, and after walking two steps, he staggered to the side by the wind, and he couldn't help but look up at the sky.

What a waste, he thought ruthlessly, and he didn't catch it all night.

Mr. Si started the car, completely ignoring the fact that he caught chickens for more than a week before he caught them.

When Gu Bai walked to the door, he bumped into his senior brother who was also wearing a raincoat and holding an umbrella.

"Good morning, Senior Brother." Gu Bai's voice was muffled, his face was icy cold from the cold rain.

"Morning." Senior brother nodded and glanced at the car that left after Gu Bai put down.

He wasn't crippled, it looked like a Ferrari.

He and Gu Bai walked into the door together, unfastened their raincoats, and asked, "Who brought you here?"

Gu Bai took off his raincoat and replied generously, "It's Mr. Si!"

"Si Yiming?"

"Yes! Mr. Si is good."

Brother: "..."

Tens of millions of financial bigwigs every minute send his younger brother to work?

What trendy setting is this?

The senior brother looked at him in shock, this little thief and cute little junior brother. Thinking of the chaotic life of the rich people in Jianghu, countless sleazy operations flashed in his mind, and finally he patted the little junior brother on the shoulder.

"You must tell us if you are short of money, Xiaobai." Senior brother said earnestly.

Don't be fooled by those rich wild men, the goddess of art is our real destination!

Gu Bai looked at his senior brother and nodded: "I'm no longer short of money!"

Senior brother nodded with great satisfaction, with a look of relief from his old father, watching Gu Bai energetically carry out their materials from the utility room.

He followed Gu Bai and walked over, but found that something was wrong.

Senior brother stretched out his hand and pressed Gu Bai's shoulder, and gestured on top of his head.

"Xiao Bai, have you grown taller?"

The author has something to say: Gu Bai: No wonder my appetite has skyrocketed recently. It turned out to be secondary growth!

Jade Jewelry: ? ? I have something to say!

Kui (kuĂ­): There is Liubo Mountain in the East China Sea, which is seven thousand miles into the sea. There is a beast on it, shaped like an ox, with a pale body without horns, and one foot. When entering and leaving the water, there will be wind and rain. Its light is like the sun and the moon, and its sound is like thunder. Its name is Kui.
