My Good Life

Chapter 17

Views:

I was obsessed with the softness of the black dress every day, and one day Li Peipei couldn't stand it any longer, and asked me: "Are you worthy of Li Dangdang?"

What she said really shocked me.

I finally looked away from the black skirt on the wall: "What's the matter with Guan Li?"

She occupied my single sofa, huddled in the corner, embraced the sleeping mangzi, and glanced at me while rubbing its fur: "What kind of thousand-year-old zombie king, what kind of unbelievable love! , Su Xiaoxin, you are so thoughtful."

"ha?"

"Although I think it doesn't matter if a woman is a little bit sweet, it's human nature..."

I rubbed between my brows: "I won't talk about what's going on with your theory. Let's talk about the facts. The only thing I like from the beginning to the end is unbelievable love. Did I stop talking about it before? It's love at first sight."

Li Peipei pursed his lips, as if he recognized me: "Well, although I feel a little sympathetic to Li Dangdang, who made him so cheap usually, he deserves it."

"So what's the matter with Li Dangdang..."

Li Peipei was silent for a while. She grabbed Mangzi's big tail and hit it in the face with its long hair. She beat him for a long time and thought about it for a long time, until Li Mangzi woke up. He opened his mouth and bit Holding my own tail, I was so stupid that I started to play with my own tail, Li Peipei pushed it away and said to me:

"I really think Li Dangdang likes you, don't you feel it?"

"… no feelings."

"You tell me the truth."

"Really, I don't feel it."

Li Peipei said: "Then you didn't see it. Didn't you get caught that day by Wei Wuchang? At that time, I was controlled. Although I couldn't control my body, my mind was still clear. I saw that my hands were heavy. , broke Xiao Shao Shao's leg, and saw you hiding under the small hot pot table and calling Li Dangdao, you don't know, just after Wei Wuchang took your front foot away, Li Dangdao appeared on the roof with a mobile phone. The magic circle under our feet didn't even flash. You must know that we can only use the magic circle now in emergency situations. The magic circle is equivalent to a report to the superior, which is equal to your human fire truck, ambulance, police car, pull When the alarm sounds, you can ignore the traffic regulations and go all the way smoothly.

"But without a magic circle, it is illegal to move such a long distance in an instant. It's like a 40-speed urban highway. Someone drove 200 yards in the wrong direction, and his driver's license could be deducted for speeding. In case he is caught If you fail, your position will be revoked.”

I was stunned for a while, I didn't expect Li Dangdang to be...

For the bag of small twists I gave him, I really worked hard! He's still a vampire who keeps his promises!

"Besides, Li Dangdang's eyes at that time... I really haven't seen his eyes like that for a long time."

"What look?"

I don't know why, Li Peipei was clearly describing what happened to me in such a flat tone, but I felt as if I was listening to a suspenseful story. Li Peipei glanced at me casually: "Do you know what it looks like to want to kill someone?"

I don't know, and I haven't seen one. I have no use for such emotions in my life.

"At that time, Li Dangdang just wanted to kill that zombie."

But when he came, Wei Wuchang and I were chatting very harmoniously...

I took a sip of water. No answer.

Li Peipei leaned back, grabbed Mangzi's hair and played with it: "So I think he likes you, but he won't admit it..." She paused, "You won't admit it either."

I didn't look at Li Paipai anymore, grabbed my digital tablet, stared at the computer, and drew a few simple strokes on the digital tablet: "Paipai, I am a very, very, very ordinary person."

I'm so ordinary, I don't think that a non-human like Li Dangdang who even wears glasses with gold glitter will fall in love with me. Even if he took 10,000 steps back, even if the sun came out to the west, and he really liked it, then there must be some ulterior, unspeakable, terrible reason.

I'm afraid that someone likes me impurely, so I'm afraid that Li Dangdang likes me, and I'm also afraid of falling in love with such a dazzling... beautiful vampire.

And as for unbelievable love... that's different, it's probably like worshiping and obsessing over idols, proper unrequited love, and it's the kind that doesn't care about anything in return.

"You are a very, very, very cute person. Look, I just like you. In this building, many, many, many non-human beings also like you." Li Peipai just finished speaking, as if to confirm her words, outside There was a "dong dong dong" knock on the door.

"Xiaoxin, Xiaoxin." Little Wolf excitedly called me outside.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw his shining eyes, his usual timidity and cowardice were swept away, and he inserted a tail on his ass. I guess he can swing it faster than Mangzi, "I found a job, recently I want to invite you to dinner, do you have time these days?"

"Huh?" I was curious, "What kind of job did you find?"

"Oh! Eat!" Li Peipei and I cared about something completely different, "What to eat?"

"Singing in a bar on Times Paradise Street." Little Wolf was a little proud, but also a little shy. He scratched his head and smiled, "The boss said I have a nice voice, so he asked me to play the guitar and sing."

Li Peipei whistled like a hooligan: "Then your boss has a bit of a bad taste."

I glanced at her and stopped her from imitating Li Dangdao's behavior of being a slanderer: "Don't you like playing drums?"

"When I started to play drums, I could only sing rock and roll, but the boss didn't want me to sing rock and roll. He set a repertoire for me and didn't sing original songs for the time being." Speaking of this, his interest dropped a little, "But it's okay , these things take your time, I collected a lot of deposits, and just paid the rent back to the landlord... "

Li Peipei panicked: "What? Have you left the team of the Four Little Heavenly Kings? Am I really going to drag Wei Wuchang, that dead man?"

"What kind of obsession do you have with the Four Heavenly Kings..." I complained to Li Peipei.

No one cared about me, Xiaolang continued: "I haven't finished it. It's still two months away, and the remaining money is not enough to pay one month's rent. The landlord asked me to stay. I want to treat everyone to a good meal first." Yes, you have taken care of me a lot these days and given me a lot of food, and I want to repay you all."

I said, "Actually no..."

"Okay!" Li Peipei stood up, raised his arms and shouted, "Eat it up!"

The little wolf also nodded excitedly: "En! Eat it up!"

Mangzi: "Wow, woof, woof!"

I:"… "

I think telling these non-humans to save some money just in case is like playing the piano with a cow...

Forget it, let them squander it, anyway... I have been poor for so many years, and I don't care if I continue to be poor in the future.

In the end, we decided to have dinner at a Japanese restaurant next to the bar where Little Wolf sang in Times Street at 6 o'clock tomorrow night. Little Wolf basically knocked on the doors of the tenants of the entire building, although only half of the people went in the end. , but I am still very worried... The little money left by the little wolf is not enough for these hungry wolves to grit their teeth.

So I quietly took the diaper with me, just in case.

The next day I spent a whole day at home on sketches.

Before I set off, I finally finished updating the manga that I had delayed some time ago, and amidst the expectations, calls, and threats of readers, I published the last picture.

And within ten minutes after it was posted, some readers read all the updates, and started banging bowls in the comment area, asking me to add updates.

Creation is like this, drawing for a whole day, adjusting the composition, dealing with details, adjusting the lines, innovating the plot, scratching the head and brainstorming to make a good story, and publishing it, fast readers will scan the plot in minutes, and start eagerly urging updates .

This is a lot of pressure for me who is very dull in creating stories, but it is also a very sweet time when I am urged to change.

I flipped through the comment section and watched the readers' cute rolls and rolls, waiting to be fed like little birds. I didn't reply to every one of them, but I read every one carefully. I was frustrated when I was scolded, and I was very proud when I was praised. , When I see the cute ones, I will be so cute that I will cover my heart. When I see the discussion of the plot, I will study it carefully. When I know that someone discusses my small bug or guesses the direction of the plot later, I will start thinking about how to modify it and avoid it. .

Storytelling is really a very interesting thing, and the Internet is really a very interesting thing.

Perhaps it is always difficult for people to escape the torment of loneliness engraved in the soul. At a certain moment, they always think that I am alone in the vast world. Many people are looking for a solution to their loneliness. Some fail, some compromise, and some succeed.

For me, the solution I found was drawing manga.

I create alone, and tell the story with confusion and hesitation, but at the moment I receive comments, no matter what, I will know that I am not the only one who can see "I" in this world.

I seem to have spiritual communication with people I have never met before, and I seem to see a lot of invisible things. There will be someone in my story who hurts where I hurt, laughs where I laugh, thinks where I think, and is confused where I am confused.

It's such a wonderful feeling, it makes me feel not alone, it even makes me feel worthy.

So that's probably why I fell in love with my job and became obsessed with it.

I finished the first wave of "occupying pits", "sofa", "presenting flowers" and "I don't care, although you just updated and I haven't watched it yet, but I know your updates are not enough, so I still have to vigorously urge you to update" After the series of comments, I pressed F5 to refresh the interface, and saw the second wave of comments. This wave of comments usually has a lot more discussion about the plot, and then I found that I was swiped...

"Damn, I'm just jealous, this dishonest little fairy, please let the heroine give him two whips, let him quickly kneel down and admit that he loves the heroine but is addicted to the heroine! Waste of time talking about these things What are you doing, Xiaozi, hurry up and confess your love, hug and kiss, and get out of bed!"

This comment was copied more than a dozen times in an instant...

And under the most original comments, there are +1, +2, +3, +10086, + ID number, and other permutations and combinations...

The most frightening thing about the copying party and the ranking party is that they will create an extremely regular and overwhelming pressure that even they themselves cannot expect, so that a positive square team will come towards me. If I don't go well The illusion that they will be kicked to death, trampled to death, trampled to death...

I wiped off my sweat and silently closed the comment interface.

Yes... storytelling takes away my loneliness, and sometimes it does make me feel like, my internet world is... just too noisy.

I looked at the time, and there was still an hour to six o'clock. I was afraid of traffic jams during the evening rush hour, so I packed my bags and went out to ask Li to accompany me.

Knocking on the door woke up Li Peipei, I called Xiaolang and Yu Meimei, and we walked to the first floor together, just in time to meet Wei Wuchang who had washed his clothes and put them on a drying rack on the flat ground to dry them. It seems that this Zombie King likes to hang clothes very much... It is also easier for me to bump into him to hang clothes. He also hangs clothes in a military style.

When he saw us going out, he nodded at me as a greeting.

I also nodded my head, and Li Peipei snorted, but Xiaolang said at this moment: "This is a new tenant, right? You haven't eaten dinner yet. When I went downstairs to look for the landlord yesterday, you seemed like No, do you want to have dinner with us?"

Wei Wuchang opened his mouth, and before he could speak, Li Peipan raised his eyebrows: "Don't take him to play!" Li Peipan said, "Let me tell you, this person is my enemy, except for Su Xiaoxin, who has made it clear that he's going to eat his own way." If you dare to play with him other than the traitor, don't play with me."

The little wolf was taken aback when he heard that.

Yu Meimei and I looked at her and sneered. Yu Meimei ran on her: "Come on, you are not a three-year-old child anymore, you are already seven years old, you can go to the first grade, please stop being so childish?"

The companion was very dissatisfied, so he argued with Yu Meimei about how old she was.

I feel like I'm befriending a bunch of retarded people.

I looked at the little wolf who was in a dilemma: "You don't care about her, she is not much different from her brother when she is childish. You treat, you are the boss, you can invite whoever you want."

The little wolf looked at Wei Wuchang again, and Wei Wuchang took the initiative to hold his hands and refused: "Your Excellency, I appreciate your kindness, but I don't need to eat, so..."

"Oh, you're acquainted." Hearing this, Li Peipei got out of the dispute with Meimei for the time being, and pointed at Wei Wuchang with a sneer, "I don't want to sit at the same table with the little boy for dinner, just a little bit."

I saw Wei Wuchang clenched his fists.

"Let's go and have a look." He said.

"You!" Li Peipei looked shocked, "You!"

Wei Wuchang's face was upright and awe-inspiring, without the slightest expression of fighting against a childish ghost: "Let's go."

I watched from the sidelines and realized a truth. Sure enough... the virus of childishness is contagious. Even a thousand-year-old zombie can be poisoned to make him rejuvenate...

We were a group of five, noisy, stumbling, occasionally moving our little hands, having a small fight, and finally arrived at the Japanese grocery store, which was already fifteen minutes late.

Li Dangdang, who was wearing a suit and leather shoes at the entrance of the Japanese food store, was already waiting impatiently. Next to him stood Yu Shao who was eating ice cream. Yu Shao was fine. When he saw us across the street, he waved to us desperately, causing many people around The young ladies and brothers who passed by all praised him for being cute.

The bell on his feet started to jingle when he met Wei Wuchang, and after the meeting with Yu Shao, with the joyful sound of the bell, the internal atmosphere of this magical small non-human team instantly eased a lot.

After entering the Japanese grocery store, the waiter arranged us in the corner of the restaurant. She helped us put together a small table, four small tables for two people, a total of eight seats, and we began to choose by ourselves.

Li Dangdang sat down first, he sat at one end, he didn't look good towards us who were late.

Then Yu Meimei and Xiaolang chose to sit at the farthest ends from him. Li Peipei obviously didn't want to eat in front of Li Dangdang. She sat diagonally opposite Li Dangdang, and Yu Shao sat down next to her in an instant. Then Yu Shao greeted me: "Xiaoxin, Xiaoxin, come and sit here, I want to be next to beautiful women on both sides."

I didn't like to slap Yu Shao in the face, so I sat down next to him, just right, opposite me was Li Dangdang.

I glanced at Li Dangdang, and my mind instantly flashed what the readers said before I went out today, what kind of small leather whip, what kisses and hugs, and I started to act in my mind, and I felt more and more embarrassed to face Li Dangdang . But standing up and changing positions at this time is even more embarrassing. I sat still and saw that Wei Wuchang was still standing next to me. I wanted to find a topic, so I pointed to the seat next to Li Dangdang and said, "General, sit down."

Li Dangdang sat at one end, and Yu Meimei sat at the other end. Wei Wuchang could only sit in if he asked one of them to stand up. He was very close to Li Dangdang, but Li Dangdang seemed not to hear him, crossing his legs and holding hands, The eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses were apathetic.

The scene was silent for a moment, but Yu Shao resisted the low pressure and said, "Oh, let us be the zombie king. It's not friendly at all."

"Pass from me, pass from me." Yu Meimei stood up quickly, Wei Wuchang went down the stairs, walked to Yu Meimei's side, missed her, and got inside.

So the current situation is even more embarrassing. The two cold-faced bosses opposite me all put on a face and said nothing.

Like a Shura field...

Yu Shao hung his leg in a plaster cast, licking ice cream happily: "Why don't you order, I'm hungry." As soon as he opened his mouth, the waiter next to him finally came over. A child's face spoke, I guess the waiter would not dare to come over and refill tea for our table.

The waiter poured the tea, Xiaolang took the order, and the atmosphere finally relaxed a little.

The little wolf began to report: "Well... Thank you for your kindness. You have helped me a lot before. I have nothing to repay. I will treat you to a meal first. After the meal, I will go to the next one at ten o'clock. There is singing in the bar, everyone can go and listen.

"I wanted to invite everyone in the building today, but I didn't come back because everything was too difficult. The old witch refused to participate in group activities, so I didn't come. The goddess is still sleeping, so I didn't come. Nothing else. I knew when I was home, so I didn't notify you. Today, it's just the seven of us, let's have dinner first."

The lady Goddess that Little Wolf mentioned lives on the second floor. So far, I haven’t seen her in person, and I don’t even know her name, because she has three hundred and sixty-five days a year, and there are three hundred and sixty-four days. She is sleeping, what kind of non-human species is she? It is said that even Li Dangdang does not know, but everyone knows one thing, that is

With Lady Goddess here, our dilapidated residential building has wifi. And it's free.

The speed of the Internet is amazing! Never get stuck watching movies and chasing dramas! Transferring files and pictures is a matter of minutes! Download a large game in half an hour and get it done!

Every year when the Goddess wakes up, she will deal with a lot of chores, such as eating nearly ten kilograms of food, chatting with others, watching TV, surfing the Internet, and paying the next year's rent to Li Dangdao.

Therefore, in Li Dangdang's mouth, the goddess is simply a model tenant, who pays the rent on time, never defaults, sleeps honestly, does not cause any disasters, and can make great contributions to the residential building!

It is simply a "tenant of someone else's house".

But the goddess is definitely not only called the goddess because of this. She also has a very magical special function, that is, on the day she wakes up, she will choose a person and fulfill his one wish, no matter what.

This wish will indeed come true!

I have heard that one year, Li Peipei made a wish to the goddess, she wanted a big dog, so after the goddess fell asleep the next day, she picked up a mangzi, an abandoned purebred Alaska on the road! Her body is absolutely healthy, and she has never had any problems except swallowing her balls and whipping her and going to the hospital.

Another year, the little wolf and the goddess complained, saying that he likes drums, but has no money to buy them, so the next day, the little wolf picked up a whole set of drums on the side of the road, bought them and beat them until now. Never repaired once, the quality is superb!

And Yu Meimei picked up a beautiful shell underwear, and the old witch got a free plastic surgery coupon from a plastic surgery hospital on the way... and so on.

It can be said that her existence is like a miracle.

It's just that I've never heard that the goddess has fulfilled Li Dangdang's wish, but who cares about Li Dangdang! He is not important!

Every year, the non-human beings in the old apartment are looking forward to the awakening of the Goddess, including me who just moved in this year. If possible, I must make a wish to the Goddess. Please let me make three more wishes!

But the goddess's awakening time is not certain, there is no fixed time every year, sometimes she wakes up on the first day of the year, sometimes she has to wait until the middle of the year, and sometimes she has to wait until the end of the year.

Everyone wants to wake her up, but she is like a protected animal in the building. When everyone covets her, everyone starts to protect her. She lives on the second floor. When there is nothing urgent, everyone can go up and down the second floor. The voices are very soft.

My thoughts drifted away, and when I came back to my senses, I saw Xiaolang bit the bullet and raised his glass when no one answered him: "Well, let's clink our glasses with tea instead of wine."

After all, Li Dangdang raised his glass to save face.

So everyone also raised their glasses.

The little wolf gulped down a cup of tea, not as if celebrating, but as suppressing shock.

I feel sorry for him, it is not easy to find a job, and it is even more difficult to invite this bunch of "demons and ghosts" to eat, so I want to bring rhythm and create a wave of atmosphere, but I haven't figured out how to do it in my heart, and I hear him in the corner There was a soft "dong" in the middle, I thought something had fallen, I turned my head to look subconsciously, and suddenly saw a dark gray creature wriggling on the sofa in the corner next to Yu Meimei...

mouse…

"Mouse!" I exclaimed, and almost jumped up from my seat at that moment, the table shook, and the tea in the hand of Li Dangdang who was sitting opposite me was shaken out.

The waiters next to me were very commotion when they heard my yell, and they all took a step back, staring at the corner with a little horror.

But the table in front of me was supposed to be a riot of guests, but they were all quite quiet. Li Dangdang didn't even turn his head, and took a napkin to wipe whoever was spilled on the table, and the others turned their heads to take a look, all of them looked very calm.

The nearest Yu Meimei drank water as usual and asked me, "Are you going to kill me?"

"Take it outside and kill her, don't let her scream." Li Dangdang ordered coldly.

"Okay." Without saying a word, Yu Meimei stood up and caught the mouse with her bare hands. When the waiter and I were together, "Oh, my God! Ah! Ah! It's moving! Ah!", Yu Meimei calmly said Lifting the mouse outside the store, I saw through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows that she slammed the mouse on the ground, observed it, and came in clapping.

"Where can I wash my hands?"

The waiter pointed her to the bathroom.

She walked in.

The waiters were all like me, looking at her like a hero. At this time, the manager of the Japanese grocery store came over in a hurry and comforted me: "I'm really sorry, the pipes on the upper floor of this mall are connected, and we are on the first floor... I'm really sorry, I surprised everyone. Please switch tables."

Just as I was about to nod and say yes, Li Dangdang refused: "No, trouble."

The store manager looked to the side, I was the only one standing up in the table, and the other one came out of the bathroom calmly, and the coyotes were still reassuring the store manager: "It's all right, it's a mouse, it's normal."

The store manager was probably a little confused, probably never seen such a calm customer. So I said sorry several times to the only one who was scared, and turned around and hurried away.

I sat down in silence and their reaction... as if being afraid of rats was a weird thing...

"You people are too delicate now. The hygienic conditions are so good, I'm used to it." Yu Shao shook his legs, and the bells on his feet were jingling. At this time, he looked old-fashioned, "Our age , There is mouse feces in the bowl, pick it out and throw it away, you can continue to eat."

The little wolf also said: "Where we lived before, we often heard the sound of mice running over the beams at night, and sometimes one or two fell on our faces."

This topic seemed to be interesting, Wei Wuchang also said, "That's not bad. After the war in the next year, the battlefield was cleaned up and the corpses were buried. Mosquitoes and mice were infested in the corpse pits, and the prevention and treatment of malaria and rats was a headache."

The more I talk about it, the stronger the taste, and I can't eat the dishes...

Yes... I'm so sorry... It's the hottest chicken in our generation...

I silently licked the plums in the ochazuke, but finally broke the awkward silence, this mouse... is considered a well-deserved death!

"There's no such thing in the sea, but there are many others." When Yu Meimei spoke, a figure walked by, holding a plate in his hand.

"I'm sorry, everyone was shocked. This is grilled shrimp with cheese. It's my apology to everyone. I'm really sorry."

I looked up and saw a handsome young man, and someone beside him introduced: "This is our chef, and he came here to apologize to everyone."

Such a young chef. He looks so handsome, and in comparison with this bunch of non-human beings, he is not inferior at all.

I was admiring his appearance, when suddenly I heard the banging of dishes, Meimei stood up abruptly, her protruding belly due to the accumulation of fat kept shaking the table, still The little wolf opposite her quickly pinned her down.

Everyone looked at her strangely, but she just stared at the chef and said after a long time, "Who are you?"

She asked this question very strangely.

The handsome chef turned his head to look at her. Because of his status as a guest, he had a somewhat distant and polite smile on his face. He tilted his head slightly, indicating that he did not understand Meimei's question.

Yu Meimei didn't explain anything, but just stared at him.

I have never seen a chubby Meimei look like this.

Yesterday, I asked me, have you ever seen the look of wanting to kill someone? I haven't seen it, but today, I saw it.
