Strange Gentlemen

Chapter 118: 22 Living together

Views:

Egbert was indeed very smart. In just one week, he had completely adapted to the outside environment. He had gained a certain understanding of various modern electrical appliances and more complex networks.

Qin was very busy with her own company and basically didn't pay much attention to him. Setting up a new company is not an easy task. She was so busy that she didn't go home for two days. If she wasn't worried that Egbert would demolish her place, she could have stayed out for another day.

Around seven in the evening, Qin Feichang returned to her rented house carrying her bag and documents. Passing by the first floor, she smelled a sweet smell. The landlady was probably baking a cake.

She walked up to the second floor and opened the door with the key. She pushed the door open and saw the TV hanging on the opposite wall. It was playing Disney's princess series of animated movies. The elf princess with wings and her cone-shaped face with 18-level beauty filter was magnified on the TV screen.

As for Eggbert, he was lying on the sofa playing his phone, the sound effects of the game were ringing non-stop, and the coffee table in front of him was full of snack bags. Qin Feichang glanced at the empty Coke cans lined up in a row. It was hard to imagine that a few days ago, Eggbert was still disliking this thing because its color looked like poison.

The game-ending notification sound was accompanied by Egbert's angry curse, "Do these idiots know how to play games? I &%¥#!*"

Very good, he even learned the popular online swear words and is very proficient in them.

So, she was only gone for two days, not two years, right

Qin Feichang put down his bag, sat on the sofa and pressed his forehead.

Egbert, who was walking by her with his phone in his hand, pulled his eyes away from the phone screen and gave her two seconds to relax. "Oh, you will come back."

Qin Feichang: “…”

Seeing him go to the kitchen to boil water and prepare instant noodles, Qin Feichang gave up the idea of taking out her phone to order food. She didn't want to move and said to the handsome boy in the kitchen, "Please make some instant noodles for me, too. Thank you."

A new round of the game started for Egbert. He operated with one hand. He did not answer Qin Feichang, but took a bucket of instant noodles from the cabinet.

Although he didn't need to eat to stay alive, he obviously enjoyed these junk foods. The instant noodles he bought earlier had been eaten long ago. Qin Feichang saw the pile of instant noodles in various packages in the cabinet and knew that he probably went shopping alone to replenish the stock.

So smart.

It has been a long time since I last had instant noodles. As a famous descendant of the Qin family, Qin was very particular about food, clothing, housing and transportation. The last time he had instant noodles was when he was a student.

Her older brothers and sisters told her that she needed to socialize with ordinary classmates, so she moved into the dormitory, but her temper was not very likable during her school days. Other roommates secretly said that she was a loner, and one night when they were eating instant noodles together, they complained about her, saying that she probably had never even eaten instant noodles.

Qin, who happened to hear this, sneered at it. She turned around and bought instant noodles of various flavors. She brought them back and cooked a big instant noodle dinner for the whole family, making her parents wonder if she had a problem with her brain.

After eating the instant noodle feast, she wrote a very rigorous product opinion on the taste and ingredients of various instant noodles and sent it to the company that produced instant noodles, which was owned by one of her uncles. After that, the company carried out a round of product optimization, and the improved products became more popular.

While eating two mouthfuls of instant noodles, Qin Feichang recalled the words that her uncle had praised her for when he greeted her parents at the old house during the Chinese New Year. Empty words without any sincerity, he didn't even give her a bonus. This uncle was notoriously stingy and suffered from hair loss. After he turned 30, he went to the old house to worship the clan god every year and prayed to the clan god to cure his hair loss, but the clan god ignored him.

"Fuck! He dared to scold me! I *&%¥#!" Egbert's angry curse interrupted Qin Feichang's memories. She looked up and saw this terrifying little lunatic who had tortured many people to death on the island. She said grimly to the phone: "I want to curse him!"

Qin Feichang: "... You want to get through the network cable and curse him?" It was obvious that they had an argument over the game, and now she had to use a cursed weapon. She is worthy of being a princess.

Egbert: "He 'greeted' my mother, so I let him really go and meet my mother. I hope he can still be so arrogant then."

Remembering that his true form was a nightmare ghost, Qin Feichang guessed what method he would use to torture the person on the other side. It was nothing more than a nightmare, and no one would die anyway, so Qin Feichang ignored him.

At the same time, a young man in a certain city was lying on his bed with headphones on, cursing and typing a string of dirty words, when he suddenly felt sleepy and fell asleep. He began to dream, and his emotions were so intense in his dream that even his body was shaking in his sleep, his eyelids were twitching, and cold sweat was pouring down his face.

Eggbert held the phone and suddenly laughed happily.

Qin Feichang finished the instant noodles, wiped her mouth, and looked at the ghost who had become an internet-addicted teenager across from her. She thought to herself, online games are indeed a psychotropic drug for contemporary young people, and they are easily addictive. Look at how quickly this terrifying boss fell, so she was right to choose to start the game industry first.

The online game sealed the idle boss, making him have no time to cause trouble. The online game saved the world.

Qin Feichang didn't know that this kind of online curse incident was not the first time in the past few days. A new mysterious rumor was circulated in a certain game forum: "Swearing while playing games will cause super terrible nightmares." It was spreading more and more. Several victims have successfully quit playing games and swearing because of this nightmare.

After resting after dinner, Qin Feichang was ready to take a bath and rest early today. On the way to the bathroom, her steps gradually became heavy, and she always felt that she would not see any pleasant scenes.

As expected, she looked at the bathroom in silence. She should have thought of this earlier, how could this little princess clean the bathroom.

She took out her cell phone and made a call. After a moment, she came out and said to Egbert, who was curled up on the sofa, "I have contacted a housekeeping company. Starting tomorrow, someone will come to help clean up the house. Be careful and don't do anything to them."

Just as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. She walked over and opened it. The landlady was standing at the door with a plate of small cakes. Seeing her, the old lady smiled in surprise and said, "You are at home today. I see that you seem to be quite busy as usual."

Although she rented a house here, Qin was not familiar with her, so he just greeted her politely.

"I baked some cakes. Is Egger here?" asked the old landlady.

Qin Feichang: "...Aige?"

Egbert had walked behind her, stepped over her and naturally took the plate from the landlady, picked up a small cake and stuffed it into his mouth.

The old lady asked lovingly, "How about it? Do you like the new flavor this time?"

Eggbert was not polite at all, "Well, it's good, better than before."

The two of them were very familiar with each other, at least much more familiar than Qin Feichang and the old lady.

When the old lady went downstairs, Qin Feichang closed the door and thought, how did this little princess get to know the landlord? She thought that with his arrogant character, he would not take ordinary people seriously and would not talk to them.

Qin Feichang suddenly felt that he didn't really understand this little princess.

When Qin Feichang left home the next day, he found out how Egbert became acquainted with the old landlady. The old lady was a retired music teacher, and her home was filled with pianos and various musical instruments.

Through the gaps between the flowers and plants, Qin Feichang saw Egbert's back as he sat in front of the piano. He looked elegant and noble, and the music he played was also very beautiful.

The prince, who had been taught by a famous musician at the time, had considerable musical attainments. The old lady standing nearby listened with a smile, her eyes full of appreciation and love.

Qin recalled it very carefully, thinking that it was something she had seen in Egbert's past. He had also sat or stood with his music teacher, spending time with the music. However, in the scene she saw, Egbert was still a twelve-year-old boy, with his hair tied up by the maid and the lady, looking more like a pretty girl.

Qin Feichang's vague vigilance towards Egbert suddenly disappeared. Well, she had actually been on guard against him doing something bad.

Just as a song was finished, the old lady brought a plate of cookies to Egbert, who ate them. Seeing this scene, Qin felt that his worries were unnecessary.

She turned and left.

Egbert looked back at her departing figure, chuckled, and then immersed himself in the music in front of him.

The old lady next to him kept praising him, "Great! Aige is great!"

Qin was very busy with his business plan, and dozens of other young people who had escaped the curse had just come back to their senses from the half-month long celebration.

They invited Qin Feichang several times, but she refused each time on the grounds of being busy. However, she did not refuse the investments from several young masters and young ladies.

Meishan and Leon are the two people who invested the most. They both felt in their hearts that the company opened by Roland would probably not achieve any results. Even if she was very powerful and not afraid of death and curses, she was just a girl who had just entered college after all. What did she know about starting a company

The two people who didn't believe that she could succeed were simply trying to help a friend. They were like patients whose trauma was healed by a doctor, and who developed trust and love for the doctor from then on.

Meishan was okay, after all, she was a lesbian and a staunch heterosexual, so she just decided to be good friends with Luolan, but Leon was not in a good situation.

During this short period of time, he experienced many twists and turns and torments. When the pain passed, he often thought of Loran's every move and was deeply impressed by her calmness. In addition to being unwilling to be outdone and admiring her intelligence, he felt his heart moved.

He thought about it for a long time and finally made up his mind. He wanted to pursue Luo Lan and ask her to be his girlfriend.

They had experienced life and death together, and they also had common topics - his father was a wealthy man, and he had been exposed to these things since he was a child. Luo Lan wanted to do business, and he could teach her. From this point of view, they were a natural match.

In this world, young people are more passionate and bold, so Leon thought it through, styled himself exquisitely, and went to find Qin Feichang with a big bouquet of flowers.

Originally, he should bring roses when confessing his love, but unfortunately every young person who has been to the ruins of the castle has a psychological trauma towards roses and anything with the scent of roses, so he brought a large bunch of sunflowers, which means "You are like my sun."

Arriving at Qin Feichang's temporary residence, Leon turned slightly to show his most handsome angle and rang the doorbell.

The door was opened, revealing a delicate and beautiful face.

That face was more deeply engraved in Leon's mind than Roland's, and had appeared in his nightmares countless times.

Leon's heart, which had been beating vigorously, suddenly stopped beating.
