Chapter 588 Extra Story: Family of Five (6)
"Stinky boy, it's noon, aren't you afraid of heat stroke if you stand in the sun?"
Dad's wrinkled face had a few more wrinkles when he smiled, but every wrinkle revealed his happy mood at this time.
Zhou Bai greeted him with a smile: "Isn't it because I have to wait for you?"
Dad put away his smile suspiciously: "If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. If there is a problem, you must have a problem."
Zhou Bai scratched his head in embarrassment: "Actually...I just came down to throw trash."
After finishing speaking, he quickly took out a candy from his pocket and stuffed it into Dad's hand.
Only then did Dad stop asking questions, and a smile appeared on his face again.
Zhou Bai followed him home, and after lunch, he returned to the study.
Then, he locked himself in the study, searching for things on the computer, and picked up his mobile phone to make a few calls from time to time.
Yu Lili got off work late today.
When she came back after eight o'clock, she saw that the lights in the study were still on, but Mom and Dad had already finished dinner and went out for a walk together.
She was wearing a professional suit, took off her flat shoes, then walked to the door of the study first, reached out and knocked on the door.
"May I come inside?"
In the study room, Zhou Bai sat in front of the desk, with several sheets of paper that he wrote densely spread out in front of him.
He frowned when he heard Yu Lili's voice.
Once again, I felt that something was wrong with her words, but I still couldn't tell what was wrong.
He could only save this question first, got up and walked over, and opened the door for her.
"Is today going well?"
Yu Lili smiled at Zhou Bai, asked gently, and walked towards the room while talking.
And Zhou Bai glanced at the note he had just written, walked over and put it away first.
"That... I have one thing I want to discuss with you."
Zhou Bai held the note in his hand, thinking about how to speak.
Yu Lili nodded and sat down across the desk.
Zhou Bai looked at her serious face, took a deep breath, and then said the speech he had prepared in advance.
"Actually... do you think the air in City A is not very good?"
He found an entry point tactfully.
"Now you have a baby, and your parents are getting older.
I thought, how about we move to City B. "
Having said this, Zhou Bai looked up nervously at Yu Lili's reaction.
Seeing that she didn't show any refusal, he quickly seized the opportunity to continue talking.
"I asked about the prices and basic conditions of several real estate projects in City B.
If you think it is appropriate, we can buy a house in City B again.
If I feel that I can’t make a decision so quickly, I also read some information about rental houses.
It is also possible for the family to rent a house in City B first. "
Zhou Bai has been looking up all afternoon, and this is the information.
City A is about to fall. If they don't move out in advance, even if there is no incident of the woman in red, this family will have no way to survive.
In order to let them have a better ending, Zhou Bai has worked hard with good intentions.
It's just that, after he finished speaking, he saw Yu Lili's eyes lowered a little dimly.
"I know you're not a bad person.
I can feel the kindness from you.
However, I also know that you are not my husband..."
Yu Lili's voice was very low, but it still shocked Zhou Bai.
It wasn't until this time that he finally knew where the strange feelings he had felt a few times before came from.
It turned out that Yu Lili hadn't called him her husband since last night.
It seemed to be the first time for Zhou Bai that his identity was exposed directly in the dungeon.
"You...why do you say that?"
Yu Lili looked at Zhou Bai with a smile.
"Because the way you look at me is different from before.
You don't love me. When you look at me, it's like looking at someone you once knew. "
Zhou Bai, who has been single for thousands of years, doesn't know what to love or not. When she said this, he was a little stunned.
Because what she said, there is really nothing wrong.
"Okay, since that's the case, then I'll just say it straight.
Don't go to work in the pharmaceutical factory anymore, and leave City A.
If you encounter any problems while leaving City A, go to Aunt Wang next door. "
Yu Lili lowered her head, as if she didn't listen to Zhou Bai's strange words.
Instead, he continued to ask in a somewhat depressed mood: "Then he...will never come back?"
Zhou Bai sighed and stood up from the chair.
"I don't know either.
He might be able to come back…”
After hearing this, Yu Lili raised her head and looked at Zhou Bai expectantly.
But Zhou Bai didn't dare to give her too much hope.
"I don't know what he has been through, maybe he is missing arms and legs now, and he has become unrecognizable long ago..."
Yu Lili accepted Zhou Bai's words with a smile.
"I do not mind.
I don't care if he's ragged, dirty, or mutilated. "
Zhou Bai saw the difference between Lili and the woman in red in Lili's smiling tears.
"Then you sit here and wait, no matter what sounds you hear later, don't come out."
He stuffed the filled notes into Yu Lili's hands.
Then he opened the door, walked out of the study, and walked towards the toilet.
In the toilet, there was knocking again and again, and when Zhou Bai opened the toilet door, it immediately came from behind the mirror.
Zhou Bai stood inside the toilet door and called out "Hao Kangcheng".
The knocking sound stopped immediately.
So Zhou Bai walked up to the mirror without saying a word, closed his eyes, and punched the mirror.
With a bang, the whole mirror became shattered.
All the fragments were scattered on the ground, making a "cracking" sound.
Zhou Bai opened his eyes, and saw behind the mirror, the entire wall seemed to be softened, it looked like a very large sheet of dough.
And inside the wall, there was a person who desperately wanted to come out, and squeezed the "dough" into the shape of a human face.
Zhou Bai took a deep breath, and cursed the system that caused trouble in his heart.
Then raised the hand that still had the red string, stretched it out in front of the "dough", and with force with his fingers, he tore the wall in front of him into two.
A somewhat unfamiliar face appeared in front of Zhou Bai.
He looked forward in confusion.
But Zhou Bai found that his body suddenly became transparent when he saw him.
The surroundings became dark again.
【Congratulations, you have successfully changed the ending and fixed the loophole. 】
【This dungeon was successfully cleared. 】
Zhou Bai opened his eyes and found that he was still lying in his room.
After the system finished broadcasting the information in a serious manner, seeing him open his eyes, he immediately changed to the previous mean tone.
Zhou Bai lay on the bed nonchalantly, happily not planning to argue with him.
"Not important."
【But judging by the emotional expression on your face just now, you don’t mean you want to fall in love, right? 】
Zhou Bai felt that this guy who spoke mechanically was really gossip.
Pulled up the quilt, turned around, and yelled at him:
"roll!"
The system estimates that going to work is too boring, this will arouse the soul of gossip, so I will not give up easily.
【Tell me quickly, what kind of girl do you like? I'm well-informed, maybe I can help you. 】
Zhou Bai got a little headache from his quarrel.
"You have the problem of gossip about me, why don't you explain it first, why do you say that I am not human?"
The mechanical voice in my head suddenly became a little sad.
【You still hold the rope in your hand, I said that you are not human, is it wrong? 】
