To make up for his emotional trauma, I personally cooked tonight... two packs of instant noodles.
He ate them with great relish, even finishing the broth.
After he was full and satisfied, I was pondering how to get him to wash the dishes when there was a sudden knock at the door.
Wang Xingci went to open it.
"What are you doing here?"
Tsk.
Hearing his tone, I thought it might be some girl coming to collect the Peach Blossom Debt, so I curiously peeked over.
It turned out to be a boy.
A very handsome boy, in fact.
As expected, a handsome guy's friend is also handsome.
The boy walked past him and entered. "I got kicked out by my parents, all my cards are frozen, Mom..."
The last word got stuck in his throat the moment he saw me.
He paused at the door, smiled and nodded at me, then patted Wang Xingci on the shoulder. "Girlfriend?"
Wang Xingci shook his head, his voice low. "Roommate."
Hearing the word "roommate," the boy's Peach Blossom Eyes suddenly sparkled with more amusement.
"Hey, I’m homeless and I want to stay at Wang Xingci's place for a few days. You don’t mind, right?"
As he spoke, he made the same promise as Wang Xingci did earlier, saying he would cook, love doing housework, and even encourage Wang Xingci to reduce the rent for the tenants.
Wow, is this their brotherly code?
I carefully examined the boy's face in front of me and smiled.
"Sure."
At the door, Wang Xingci's expression instantly darkened a bit.
And just like that, Zhou Ran moved in, turning this three-bedroom house into a shared living space for three people and one cat.
Zhou Ran is Wang Xingci's close friend.
That night, Wang Xingci "hospitably" poured Zhou Ran a glass of water, and I took a closer look.
Wow, that water cup looks so familiar.
Just as I was about to remind him, Wang Xingci pulled me into the bathroom and cornered me against the wall.
"If you dare to tell anyone... the rent will go up."
The distance was too close, and my face gradually turned red.
"I won’t say anything, but can you please not stand so close to me?"
Being too close, every glance from him made my heart race.
He seemed to realize it as well, suddenly letting go of my hand, the panic in his eyes was evident.
Just like that, we both walked out of the restroom with flushed faces, catching Zhou Ran's attention.
"You two... so fast?"
Zhou Ran had a mischievous smile, teasingly glancing at Wang Xingci. "How about some oysters for dinner, bro?"
"Get lost."
Wang Xingci deliberately reminded him, "Just drink your water."
Zhou Ran raised an eyebrow and took a sip from his cup.
However, after taking a sip, Zhou Ran tasted it and said, "Dude, why does your water taste like chives?"
Wang Xingci's face changed dramatically as he turned and rushed back into the restroom.
Zhou Ran looked confused. "What's wrong with him?"
"Nothing," I replied, stifling a laugh. "He might... be allergic to chives."
That night, three insomniacs met in the living room and decided to play Dou Di Zhu.
The stakes were all sorts of things, like doing laundry, cooking a meal, or washing dishes.
Anyway, it's basically all Housework.
After battling until midnight, I finally believe that I really have no talent for Dou Di Zhu.
What I said to Wang Xingci on the Bus back then was half the truth.
I am a professional.
A professional at losing money.
After a night of playing landlord, I lost a month's worth of housework.
Feeling frustrated, I returned to my room and sent a WeChat message to my best friend Jojo in the early hours.
Xx Garden x Building x Unit 802, hurry over, there's a handsome guy, just like your unfortunate ex-boyfriend, but way more handsome.
That's why I agreed to let Zhou Ran stay.
As a good friend, I should help her keep an eye out for suitable men.
After sending the message, I covered myself with the blanket and went to sleep.
In a half-dreaming state, I was suddenly awakened by a knock on the door.
I opened the door and happened to run into two others who were also drawn out by the knocking.
Especially Wang Xingci.
He was only wearing a pair of sleep shorts. I glanced over and, well... while he wasn't exactly a standard muscle man with eight-pack abs, he had the necessary muscle definition.
While I was sneaking a look, Zhou Ran walked over to open the door.
When the door opened, my unfortunate friend stood at the entrance in a short skirt, looking pitiful.
Like me, her gaze immediately fell on the bare-chested Wang Xingci.
I quickly stepped forward to block her view and gave Jojo a silent signal:
"This is mine; yours is over there..."
Jojo shifted her gaze, and when she saw Zhou Ran's face, her eyes lit up.
I took another glance at Zhou Ran.
Zhou Ran casually glanced at me, and after our eyes met, he slowly turned his head to look at Jojo.
From my angle, I could vaguely see the twinkling light in those Peach Blossom Eyes.
... A playboy meeting another playboy; I was actually looking forward to what would happen next.
