If Xu Yinchen didn't have the habit of hugging her anytime and anywhere, then as a ghost hero, Tang Ming thought he was still very lovable.
Tang Ming walked home on foot. However, walking for tens of minutes in summer is enough to make you sweat all over. However, even in this kind of weather that would make you feel hot while sitting still, the house they live in is still maintained. cool.
Take out the key and open the door, once you enter this 'haunted house', it's like having your own air conditioner in summer, it's so refreshing.
Before Zhou Ying came back, Tang Ming put her bag on the sofa. On the way, she stopped by to buy some ingredients for today's dinner. After putting all the ingredients in the kitchen, she was going to go upstairs to take a good bath.
The stairs in this house are so dilapidated that every step you take makes a sound like the wood can't bear the weight.
Although it seems that she is alone at home now, there is actually a ghost. If Xu Yinchen does not show up, Tang Ming will not know where he is at all. From the strategy point of view, it is really inconvenient.
She was thinking about other things in her mind, and she accidentally stepped on a place where the stairs had already been sunken, and suddenly became unstable and almost fell down the stairs for the second time.
But the second she lost her balance, she was supported by a pair of hands.
If the temperature in the room is like an air conditioner in summer, then Xu Yinchen's body is like a mobile ice bank. In the freezer, the cold air around the body can almost make people lose their ability to react in an instant.
Tang Ming's mind froze for a moment, and she began to wonder if Nuan Baobao was useful.
"Thanks… ?"
Although Xu Yinchen didn't care whether she would thank him or not, but after she really said that thank you to him, he felt that this feeling was a bit strange.
He didn't support her for any very soft reason, it's just that she was standing at a different height from the height he pushed her last time, and if he fell from such a high position, it would be very troublesome for him if he died.
If a creature like a human being dies, it will become as cold as him, right
"It's useless if you're dead."
The implication is that he only gave her a hand because of his own consideration.
He didn't show his figure in front of her, and that cold voice sounded at the dark stairway, which made people feel that their brains were numb for no reason.
Tang Ming, who didn't expect this topic to continue, felt a little unexpected when he heard his words.
Why did he explain this to her
Tang Ming is a person whose brain circuits are a little different from normal people, and the direction of thinking about things is also different. The next second she felt puzzled, she laughed. Xu Yinchen's hand was still holding her shoulder, Tang Mingshun He found the correct position of his hand by touch.
Although you can't see it, but after you really grab it, the touch in your hand is still real.
Being touched by her without hindrance again, it is obviously such a special thing, but in Xu Yinchen's view, it has become a bit normal, she pulled his hand in front of her, and Xu Yinchen could feel it from her palm. To the temperature that was slightly scorching for him.
He likes this temperature very much, so when she touches him, he won't refuse.
"Then am I useful to you now?" Tang Ming likes things he has never been in contact with. He didn't show his figure before being caught by her this time, so even if she holds his hand now, There was still a cloud of air in front of Tang Ming.
Unable to see his specific position, Tang Ming simply looked down at his hands. From Xu Yinchen's perspective, it was as if he was looking at his hands. His hands were different from hers. Her hands were fair and slender, even Even a ghost with no sense can see how flimsy the white and tender skin is, and even the nails are neatly manicured.
His was the exact opposite of hers.
His hands are bigger than hers. He can hold hers with one hand, but she can't. Against her background, his hands are rough and hideous. Maybe using the word rough is a bit rough. Too gentle, that's a ghost's hand after all.
Tang Ming asked if she was useful to him now, Xu Yinchen just wanted to nod his head, but he suddenly realized that the other party couldn't see him now, so he gave a moderate 'hmm'.
"Then, in order to prolong the use time, let's set the rules?" If you let him hug you all the time, Tang Ming feels that he will freeze to death sooner or later, "Human beings are very fragile, maybe you don't know, but Whenever a human and a ghost come into contact with each other, the human soul is also harmed at the same time."
"This kind of damage will accumulate. If it continues like this, it will probably not be long before I become a useless existence in your mouth."
Xu Yinchen had never considered these issues, and heard from her at this time that he had some indigestion for a while.
If she had frequent contact with him, she would die
Xu Yinchen naturally didn't want her to die, but this hope was based on the special point that he could get warmth from her. If he gave up this because he was worried that she would die, then why didn't he want her to die
She who couldn't warm him was no different from an ordinary human being.
Although he thought so, Xu Yinchen didn't understand why, he hesitated faintly in his heart, he was shaken by her words, just because she said she might die.
After she died, he probably would never meet anyone who could talk to him naturally again.
Tang Ming couldn't see his expression, but the temperature suddenly dropped from the surroundings could feel the oppressive state of the opposite ghost. The exchange of the past few days made the favorability point rise to 30 points, and the 30 point favorability point was not enough to make him feel depressed. She was so arrogant that she would risk her life to shake the other party, "However, if it is only a small area of contact, the damage will be very small."
"Just like this." She took his hand and shook it, "It doesn't matter if it's like holding hands~"
Knowing that to Xu Yinchen, she is a large hot water bag, so she made this proposal to Xu Yinchen to avoid the situation that the hot water bag turned into a cold bag. She didn't think Xu Yinchen would care about her life or death, but Xu Yinchen would definitely care about whether the hot water bag was It can't keep warm.
Indeed, it is better to be able to keep warm all the time than to be cold halfway through.
Perhaps it was because a proposal that could satisfy both sides happened to appear during the struggle, so Xu Yinchen didn't think there was any problem with this proposal. Even if it was just the touch of hands, he could feel the temperature from her that he had never felt before. Although it wasn't as warm as hugging her directly, it was enough for him.
"I see," he said.
After he finished speaking, he waited for Tang Ming to take the initiative to let go, and asked him to take the initiative to pull his hand away from the warmth, but he was not very willing.
Finally solved one of the most serious problems in this strategy, Tang Ming's mood suddenly became more comfortable. She was talking about anything that would damage the soul. I understand.
Besides her spirit
The soul is controlled by the system, and it is not an existence that can be easily destroyed by other factors.
Tang Ming stretched out her hand to explore, and successfully touched his body in front of her.
Xu Yinchen may have a little understanding of human beings, but Tang Ming is obviously outside the scope of the kind of people he knows. When he was surprised by her behavior, he saw her decisively after meeting him. Let go of the hand that was holding him before, and then groped to find his exact position and reached out to hug him.
In her arms, she was still as warm as before. Through the place where he touched, Xu Yinchen could clearly feel the temperature conveyed from the other party, but the temperature seemed to be hotter than ever before.
Was it because he knew that such contact would hurt her? Or is it because this is the first time he has been actively hugged by someone else
"Thanks."
He heard her voice, which was not particularly loud, and he was a little puzzled, "What?"
"Thank you for saving me just now."
This is the first time.
For the first time, just relying on the other party's words, Xu Yinchen felt a mood that he could hardly control by himself. That voice that he didn't know if it was a pleasant voice among human beings was conveyed to his ears, just like she brought The temperature given to him is the same, and even a certain part of his body seems to be softened.
Tang Ming was suddenly pulled away without paying attention, and when she fell down on the stairs, the temperature around her that had been made colder by Xu Yinchen gradually warmed up.
Tang Ming realized that Xu Yinchen had run away.
She stood up and patted her skirt, then turned and continued upstairs.
The temperature in the room is very normal. Of course, this normality depends on the average temperature in the room. Tang Ming can already judge whether Xu Yinchen is there or not based on the temperature in the room. Wherever Xu Yinchen is, the temperature will plummet.
In other words, Xu Yinchen did not follow her back to the room.
The favorability level fluctuated, obviously the other party's current mood is very complicated.
Tang Ming took a shower, then opened the window of the balcony, moved a chair to the balcony and started to be dazed. The sky outside had not yet darkened, and the sunset was quite interesting from this angle.
The temperature outside was also higher than that inside the house, and it was warm, which somewhat relieved the chill left on her body when she took the initiative to hug Xu Yinchen just now.
When Zhou Ying came back, she saw the ingredients in the kitchen. She was still holding the small cake she bought on the way, and put the cake in the refrigerator for dessert. Zhou Ying picked it up and was thrown on the first floor by Tang Ming. The small bag on the sofa, I plan to help her deliver it.
Zhou Ying is used to self-improvement by herself, so when she was renting a house, she would inevitably worry about what kind of person the little girl renting with her would be. But in fact, Tang Ming didn't need her to worry at all, and discussed things with her. She will never forget, she will not shirk the housework, and she is even good at cooking.
I am very lucky to have such a roommate.
Zhou Ying knocked on the door of her room, and when she didn't hear a response, she pushed the door open and walked in. They were all like this during this time, and there was nothing to shy away from both of them being girls.
There was no light in the room, and it was already dark when Zhou Ying came back. She accurately found the switch on the wall, and when the light in the room was turned on, she saw Tang Ming who seemed to be asleep under the quilt.
I didn't expect her to go to bed so early. Do you want her to have dinner alone today
Zhou Ying sighed, she put Tang Ming's small bag on her desk, and was about to leave when she heard Tang Ming, who was supposed to be asleep, sneezed.
"... Tang Ming?"
Thinking she was awake, Zhou Ying called her, but got no answer.
She felt a little strange, so she walked to her bed, and when she took a closer look, she found that her originally fair and tender face was flushed at this moment, and although her eyes were tightly closed, her expression seemed to be very uncomfortable.
Zhou Ying touched her forehead, feeling a little hot.
Just now she was thinking that Tang Ming didn't need her to worry about it at all, but she actually had a fever in this season
Her hair was still half-wet, and even the pillow was soaked with water. It was obvious that she had just showered and hadn't even dried her hair.
Even Zhou Ying felt that the temperature in this house was surprisingly cold. They lived in the summer and had never turned on the air conditioner, because even if the air conditioner was not turned on, the room was still as cold as when the air conditioner was turned on.
It is very normal to not blow your hair and catch a cold after taking a shower at this temperature.
Zhou Ying got up to look for medicine, when she stood up, she saw the open balcony door and the chair on the balcony, she probably understood why Tang Ming didn't blow-dry her hair.
It is estimated that the outdoor temperature is high, and it can dry naturally without blowing.
But doesn't she know that frequent going in and out of the air-conditioned room is very easy to catch cold!
It was obvious that she was not the one who had the fever, but Zhou Ying felt a headache for no reason. Fortunately, there were all kinds of medicines in her room, but she didn't know if there were any fever-reducing medicines. If not, she had to go out and start over again. bought.
As soon as Zhou Ying walked out the door, a figure appeared beside the empty bed.
If Xu Yinchen was skeptical about the theory of the soul before, he has completely believed it now. He has never seen a human being with a fever before. Seeing her lying on the bed with no strength, Xu Yinchen unconsciously remembered The scene where she took the initiative to hug him before.
Was it because she did that that she suddenly became so weak
But knowing that this would happen, why would she take the initiative to contact him? It's obviously not good for her.
Xu Yinchen stretched out his hand and subconsciously wanted to touch her, but when he was about to touch her, his movements stopped unconsciously, his mind was full of her saying that as long as he touched her, he would be hurt .
Tang Ming, who was a little fuzzy, intuitively felt the suddenly cold air around her. She already felt that it was too hot now, because she didn't give the quilt to her because she believed that she could recover from sweating under the quilt. Kick off.
Putting an ice pack on the forehead when you have a fever also seems to relieve the fever.
Tang Ming opened her eyes in a daze. Sure enough, as she thought, the temperature drop must be due to Xu Yinchen. She stretched out her hand from under the quilt, trying to grab his hand that seemed to want to touch her.
His hands were as cold as ever, but it was the first time Tang Ming felt that this temperature was very comfortable.
But before she had time to cool her forehead with his hand, Xu Yinchen withdrew his hand from her hand as if being scalded, and even distanced herself from her directly.
This act of being avoided like a virus brought back a little bit of Tang Ming's consciousness. She barely propped herself up and looked at Xu Yinchen who was standing far away from her with a dazed expression.
Ghosts can't be infected, right
Why should he avoid her
