For some reason, Xiao Jinang's pace suddenly slowed down. He looked up at the gradually darkening sky, then looked at the people flowing around him, and wondered if this was the human world. It was indeed different from the interstellar space station.
Although the vast universe has a vast sea of stars, it seems far less noisy and bustling than the human world...
Xiao Jinang took two steps and couldn't help but turn around on the spot. He suddenly felt indescribably happy. A wisp of hair stood up on his naturally curly hair, but it fell down again after a while.
He was afraid that Ming Zhou would get impatient waiting for him, so he walked very fast. As luck would have it, he ran into Ming Zhou just as he walked downstairs. However, Ming Zhou was blind and could not see Xiao Jinang. He was searching for his cell phone in his pocket, as if he wanted to call him.
Seeing this, Xiao Jinang quietly walked over, ready to scare him, but Ming Zhou seemed to have eyes on his back. He suddenly tilted his head slightly and spoke tentatively into the air: "Xiao Jinang?"
Xiao Jinang paused when he heard this, and subconsciously stood up straight: "How do you know I'm behind you?"
He was a simple-minded man, and was easily tricked.
Ming Zhou actually didn't know Xiao Jinang was nearby. He just called out tentatively because of his sixth sense. He didn't expect that the other party was really behind him. Hearing this, he slowly turned around and asked, "Did you go to the company today?"
Xiao Jinang nodded, looking extremely happy: "I went, and the boss didn't fire me. He let me stay and continue working."
Ming Zhou thought he was stupid. It wasn't a good job. Was it worth staying here? But he also thought it was good for Xiao Jinang to live a simple life. He smiled and said, "That's good. Let's go to the mall to buy you some clothes. Otherwise, it will be closed if we get late."
The clothes Ming Zhou wore were all from light luxury brands, plain and simple without any fancy patterns, but comfortable. He took Xiao Jinang directly to the store he was more familiar with, intending to buy several sets at one time.
Xiao Jinang didn't understand the aesthetic taste of the human world. He just thought everything was beautiful and let Mingzhou choose for him.
The clerk always had a good memory for VIP customers. When Ming Zhou came in, she immediately recognized him and hurried forward to greet him. She spoke in a gentle and soothing voice, "Mr. Ming, are you here with your friends today? Our store just launched new products this season, but the designs are more casual and sporty, so we didn't tell you in advance."
Ming Zhou mostly wears shirts and suits, and their types are very fixed. Every time the store launches new seasonal products with similar designs, they will be delivered to his door for him to choose. Unexpectedly, Ming Zhou came by himself today.
Ming Zhou hummed: "It's okay, I'm just walking around."
He whispered to Xiao Jinang beside him, "See if there are any clothes you like in the store and ask the clerk to bring them over for you to try on."
Xiao Jinang looked around the store and saw all kinds of accessories, clothes, shoes and socks. He was dazzled. He pulled Ming Zhou's shirt sleeve curiously and asked, "Can I wear the same thing as you?"
Ming Zhou felt that Xiao Jinang was still young, so there was no need for him to dress as rigidly and formally as he did. "I'll buy you clothes of this style in a few years. First, check if there's anything you like in the store, or ask them to recommend a few to you."
The clerk immediately understood what the customer meant and brought out a few new items, including some short-sleeved shirts and a shirt. "Sir, you can take a look at this shirt. It's designed to be very loose and can be worn as a jacket on a daily basis. It's also a casual style. There are three colors in total, and they all happen to be in your size..."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinang estimated the length of the shirt from a distance, then looked at Ming Zhou, and suddenly remembered a new word that Sang Feiwan told him today, called "shirt temptation".
Wear your boyfriend's white shirt, just one, you don't need to wear anything else.
These are Sang Feiwan’s original words.
Xiao Jinang didn't understand what it meant at first, but when he imagined how Ming Zhou would put it on, he suddenly understood. He touched the tip of his nose and asked Ming Zhou tentatively: "Then... take a white shirt?"
He shopped so fast that even the clerk was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and said subconsciously: "Sir, do you want to try it on and see the effect?"
Ming Zhou, who was standing by, suddenly said, "Just take one according to his size and pack it up."
Xiao Jinang blinked and asked, "Don't you want to try?"
Ming Zhou asked, "Do you like it?"
Xiao Jinang nodded: "I like it."
Ming Zhou: "It's enough that you like it, wrap it up."
Ming Zhou was a man of few words when he was not working, and he rarely bargained with the waiter over trivial matters. He touched the style of the shirt, made sure it didn't have too many weird designs, and asked the waiter to pack it.
Shirts are a basic item that you can wear in any way you want as long as the size is right. What's more, Xiao Jinang likes it, so he naturally wants to buy it.
Xiao Jinang didn't have a strong opinion. Apart from the white shirt he was obsessed with, Ming Zhou helped him choose the next few sets of clothes. The clerk was beside him, carefully describing the styles and colors to Ming Zhou, and then asked him to touch the fabric to make sure it was suitable before packing it up.
Ming Zhou finally bought seven tops, three pairs of pants, four pairs of sneakers, and some underwear. After putting them in bags, the large and small bags were very spectacular, and it was a bit difficult for him and Xiao Jinang to carry them.
While the clerk was calculating the bill, Xiao Jinang nervously whispered in Ming Zhou's ear, "Did we buy too much?"
He just glanced at the price tag and saw that a shirt cost more than 2,000 yuan, which was equivalent to half a month's salary for him. If all the miscellaneous items were added together, it would probably cost at least 40,000 or 50,000 yuan.
qaq Why is it easier to spend money than to earn money in the human world? He works so hard for a month and can only buy one piece of clothing? Diamond is so sad.
Ming Zhou didn't expect Xiao Jinang to ask this. He was stunned for a moment before reacting and explained in a gentle voice, "It's hot this season, so buy a few more clothes to wear. Seven sets of clothes, one week's worth of wear, is just right."
In fact, he wanted to buy a few more pieces. After all, Xiao Jinang didn't have any luggage when he moved in. However, the styles of the last few pieces of clothes did not satisfy him, so he gave up the idea.
Xiao Jinang felt inexplicably embarrassed. He counted the days until his salary was paid on his fingers, and then said with bright eyes: "I will buy you clothes when I get paid."
Ming Zhou smiled for some reason after hearing this: "Really?"
Xiao Jinang: "Of course it's true."
On the other side, the clerk had already settled the bill and came over with the card machine for Ming Zhou to enter the password. Before leaving, he also gave him an exquisitely crafted designer keychain as a gift.
Ming Zhou touched the keychain and found it a bit rough, probably made of crystal. He threw it into the shopping bag and left the mall with Xiao Jinang.
Xiao Jinang noticed his movements and tried to hold back, but finally couldn't help but lower his head and asked, "Don't you like that keychain? Shiny things are so beautiful."
Just like him, he is also shiny.
Ming Zhou was stunned for a moment before realizing what Xiao Jinang was referring to: "Fortunately, I rarely use this kind of thing."
Ming Zhou wears a suit and shirt every day, meticulous from head to toe. He obviously doesn't look like the kind of person who would like those shiny little accessories.
Xiao Jinang suddenly became a little dejected, like a puppy with drooping ears: "Okay..."
Ming Zhou noticed his low mood and was a little confused. After thinking for a moment, he finally attributed it to Xiao Jinang liking the shiny keychain, and fumbled to hand it to him: "If you like it, take it and use it."
However, this could not soothe Xiao Jinang's wounded heart. Until he went to the pet clinic to pick up the kitten, his mind was full of thoughts about why Ming Zhou didn't like shiny things.
When the nurse at the clinic saw them coming to pick up the kitten, she packed all the necessary medicines in a bag and reminded them of the precautions: "Apply the ointment on time and pay attention to the kitten's bowel movements. If there are any problems, you can bring it directly to the clinic and check it every three days."
Ming Zhou listened very carefully. He had a good memory and could remember what others said basically after just one repetition. Xiao Jinang followed the nurse to the pet room and took the kitten out of the cage. After a night of treatment, the kitten's mental state seemed much better, but the color of its right eye was still a little strange.
The nurse looked at the shopping bags in their hands and hesitated, "Did you buy the space capsule cat bag? And the cat bed climbing frame, these are all things needed to raise a cat."
Ming Zhou asked, "Does the clinic sell them?"
Nurse: "Yes, but there are many styles. It depends on which one you want."
Ming Zhou was still carrying things in his hands, so even if he bought something, he couldn't take it back. He could only say, "Let's go home and put the things down first, and come back to buy them later."
Seeing that they were too busy, the nurse simply walked over and opened the glass door for them: "Okay, but you have to come early. I will be off work in a few hours."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
After Ming Zhou expressed his thanks, he and Xiao Jinang left the clinic. Fortunately, their residence was not far from here, so they arrived home quickly.
After Xiao Jinang entered the room, he carefully placed the cat in his arms on the ground, then took out his coat and put it underneath the cat, using it as a temporary nest. Then he sat on the ground with his back against the sofa and began to search for tips on raising cats on his mobile phone.
Ming Zhou was tired after a long day, so he was inevitably a little tired. He hesitated for a moment, and finally raised his hand to take off the sunglasses on his nose, then slowly fell on the sofa with his eyes closed, and his forehead just touched Xiao Jinang's back, rubbing it gently.
Ming Zhou originally wanted to take a break, but Xiao Jinang looked back at him, suddenly bent down and kissed him. His soft tongue pried open his teeth, and after much difficulty they touched each other, and suddenly they could not separate.
Ming Zhou groaned and wanted to say something, but Xiao Jinang's tongue was entangled with his, so he couldn't utter a word and could only respond forcedly.
Xiao Jinang was very fast at learning anything, especially this aspect. He stretched out his long arms and pulled Ming Zhou from the sofa into his arms. He kissed the back of his head deeply while slowly pulling the hem of his shirt out from his waist.
Ming Zhou seemed to realize something, and he held his hand with difficulty, panting hoarsely, "Not today..."
Just finished it yesterday, can’t do it so often.
Xiao Jinang nodded obediently, indicating that he understood. The burning kiss slowly moved to Ming Zhou's ear, and he held Ming Zhou's slightly cool earlobe in his mouth. He praised in a low voice: "Doctor Ming, you look good in a white shirt..."
He said, "You can wear mine too."
Ming Zhou felt weak from being kissed by Xiao Jinang. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the other party's kissing skills were too proficient, always lingering on sensitive spots. His breathing was disordered for a moment: "It's okay, I have a lot of things..."
Ming Zhou lacked everything except shirts.
Xiao Jinang lowered his head and rubbed him, speaking with a nasal tone, as if he was acting coquettishly: "But I want you to wear mine."
Ming Zhou rubbed the back of his head out of habit and explained patiently: "Your clothes are a different size than mine. They're too big."
Xiao Jinang's eyes sparkled: "Then use it as pajamas?"
"… "
Ming Zhou didn't say anything. He always felt like he understood something, but also like he didn't quite understand it. After all, Xiao Jinang was a confused person and shouldn't have so many weird ideas.
Ming Zhou wisely avoided the topic: "What time is it? Should we go downstairs and buy some things for the cats?"
As expected, Xiao Jinang was fooled. Upon hearing this, he took out his cell phone from his pocket and was about to check the time when a call came in. The caller ID showed Jiang Weimian.
Xiao Jinang was stunned, wondering why Jiang Weimian suddenly called him, and subconsciously clicked the answer button: "Hello?"
Jiang Weimian was mainly worried that Xiao Jinang had no place to live, so she planned to take him to her home. However, due to her poor memory, she only remembered this after dark: "It's me, where are you now? I'll drive over to find you."
Xiao Jinang was confused: "What do you want from me?"
Jiang Weimian said succinctly: "See where you live and send the address. I'm driving now. Let's talk later."
If Xiao Jinang's living environment was really bad, he would just make a room in his house for him to live in. After all, they were friends for life, and he couldn't just stand by and watch him die. After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Ming Zhou had sharp ears. When he heard the voice of a young man on the other end of the line, he paused, sat up straight from Xiao Jinang's arms, and asked, "Is this your colleague?"
"No," Xiao Jinang put down his phone and shook his head, then sent the address to Jiang Weimian, "It's my good friend, he wants to come and see me."
Ming Zhou never knew that Xiao Jinang had friends. He always thought that Xiao Jinang was just like him, a loner with no connections. He was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why did he come to see you?"
Xiao Jinang was also very curious: "I don't know, maybe he came to me to pay me back? I borrowed 10,000 yuan from him last time."
After hearing what he said, Ming Zhou slowly remembered that the last time he treated the cat, Xiao Jinang seemed to have borrowed money from a friend, and they seemed to have a close relationship.
Close relationship
This realization suddenly made Ming Zhou feel a little uncomfortable. It was a feeling that was hard to describe, as if someone else had touched his property.
Ming Zhou knew that this emotion was wrong, so he didn't show it. He sat on the floor, feeling a little cold for some reason, adjusted his posture slightly, and then calmed down again.
Ming Zhou hoped that Xiao Jinang could say a few more words to him about that "friend", such as when they met and how good their relationship was. However, all he could hear was the humming sound of the air conditioner.
Xiao Jinang was thinking about something else. In addition to buying a cat climbing frame, he had to buy something else. Sang Feiwan said that it was necessary to use it when making love, so he could go to the convenience store to take a look when he went downstairs to find Jiang Weimian.
The cell phone was quietly placed on the coffee table. After an unknown amount of time, it suddenly rang. It turned out to be a text message from Jiang Weiman: I'm here, please come downstairs.
The conscientious security guard stopped him and wouldn't let him in.
Xiao Jinang opened his phone and took a look. He immediately stood up and said, "Doctor Ming, my friend is here. I'll go downstairs to see him and will be back soon."
Ming Zhou, who was sitting on the ground, was slow to come back to his senses after hearing this. He subconsciously grabbed Xiao Jinang's sleeve, as if he was afraid that he would leave, and his strength tightened slightly: "You..."
Ming Zhou seemed to want to say something, but sensing Xiao Jinang's doubtful gaze, he moved his lips for a long time, but in the end he said nothing, only pursed his lips and uttered one sentence: "Then you...then you go..."
After he finished speaking, he slowly loosened his grip on Xiao Jinang's sleeve. The last sound dissipated in the air, making it difficult to hear clearly.
Xiao Jinang bent down and kissed him. Seeing Ming Zhou sitting on the ground, he carried him to the sofa. He rubbed his head like a child and said, "I'll be back soon~"
Jiang Weimian wandered around the community for about ten minutes before he finally saw Xiao Jinang running towards him. He looked around suspiciously, wondering if Xiao Jinang actually lived here. How could he afford to rent such an expensive house
Jiang Weimian saw Xiao Jinang approaching him and subconsciously asked, "Are you working part-time as a property manager here?"
Xiao Jinang shook his head blankly when he heard this, wondering what property management was: "No, I live here."
Jiang Weimian slowly typed a question mark: "Where do you get the money to rent a house?"
Xiao Jinang: "This is Dr. Ming's house. I live with him."
His eyes sparkled when he said this, as if he was shy or happy.
Jiang Weimian inexplicably felt that the name Doctor Ming sounded familiar, but because of his poor memory, he couldn't remember where he had heard it before: "Who is Doctor Ming? Why do you want to live with him?"
Xiao Jinang found a convenience store nearby and motioned for Jiang Weimian to follow him: "I want to buy something. Let's talk while I buy."
Jiang Weimian didn't think much about it, just thought Xiao Jinang wanted to buy some snacks or something, so he followed him. However, when Xiao Jinang entered the convenience store, he didn't look at anything else, but went straight to the x daily necessities area, stood in front of the row of shelves and studied condoms and lubricants seriously.
Jiang Weimian was confused for a moment when he saw this. He subconsciously took out the box of condoms from Xiao Jinang's hand and put it back in place: "This is not chewing gum."
However, Xiao Jinang glanced at him, nodded seriously and said, "I know this is not chewing gum."
This is a condom.
Jiang Weimian was even more confused: "You... why did you buy this?"
Xiao Jinang looked at him doubtfully and said, "Use it."
Is it possible to blow up a balloon
There were quite a lot of people in the convenience store at night. Normal people would buy condoms quickly. But Xiao Jinang was different. He studied each box, different models, different fragrances, and looked as serious as if he was doing academic research.
Jiang Weimian's eyelids twitched when he saw this. For the first time in his life, he knew how to write the word "awkward". He originally wanted to drag Xiao Jinang away, but when he saw the customer next to him suddenly looking at them, he retracted his hand in a second and quickly turned to look at the instant noodle shelf, pretending that he didn't know Xiao Jinang.
Oh shit.
Jiang Weimian cursed silently, not knowing whether to leave or stay. He wondered why Xiao Jinang suddenly bought such an indecent thing? Who taught him to do that
Why did he pull me over here? Did he want me to help pay the bill
There is no way I could help him pay for that kind of stuff even if I died!
Jiang Weimian frowned, and when no one was paying attention, he walked to Xiao Jinang and urged him in a low voice, "Can you buy it faster?"
However, Xiao Jinang misunderstood what he meant: "Do you want to buy it too? I'll give you a seat?"
Jiang Weimian wondered why he bought this, as there were still a lot of things at home that he hadn't used up. He still couldn't understand why Xiao Jinang bought this kind of thing: "Do you know what this is for?"
Xiao Jinang hissed, signaling him to speak more quietly: "Although I have never used this, I know how to use it. Don't you know how to use it? If you don't know, you can search it online."
"… "
Jiang Weimian didn't say anything, and suddenly felt that it was a mistake for him to come out today.
