After simply activating the phone and setting it up, upon seeing the "no SIM card inserted" display in the signal list, Ye Shuang looked at the girl again. "I want to get a SIM card."
"Your ID card. It's 50 yuan."
Ye Shuang took out a banknote and his ID card and handed them over. The girl glanced at the birth date on the ID card. "You really are 26."
"What else?"
"With your disheveled appearance, you look like a lecherous uncle going through a midlife crisis." The girl leaned on the glass display cabinet with her hand supporting her cheek, and her leisurely way of speaking was still so annoying.
However, Ye Shuang's current situation was actually similar to a midlife crisis. The only difference was probably that he wasn't bald yet.
"Why do you call me a lecherous uncle?!"
"Because you've been staring at me." The girl said in a flat tone.
"You..." Ye Shuang was at a loss for words. Although he had just taken an extra look at the girl because he thought she was about the same age as Bai Yuyou, he couldn't refute her statement.
Forget it.
After getting the phone signal sorted out, Ye Shuang downloaded the commonly used software. Then, under the girl's gaze with an inexplicable meaning, he quickly left the mobile phone store.
First, he deposited that stack of cash into the card. Then, Ye Shuang bought a few sets of clothes for himself and changed into them in the changing room.
Not wearing wet clothes and underwear anymore, Ye Shuang finally felt much more comfortable. The moment he took off his work formal attire and put on a short-sleeved shirt, he had never felt so relaxed.
It was as if the shackles that had been binding his soul had been untied.
Looking at the more than nine thousand yuan left in the card, after thinking for a while, Ye Shuang went to the business hall to report his lost SIM card as lost.
Although this phone was cheap, it also supported dual SIM cards. After reporting the loss, after all the trouble, it was almost noon.
"I wonder how she is. I should go back first." Walking on the street, Ye Shuang couldn't help but think of Bai Yuyou's face.
Come to think of it,
Was it instant noodles that she bought last night?
"She probably can't cook. Otherwise, she wouldn't have run out in the middle of the night just to buy instant noodles." Thinking about it, Ye Shuang's gaze landed on a vegetable vendor nearby.
This was an old district with many urban villages. There was a large flow of people, and there were quite a lot of street vendors. Although there were fewer vegetable sellers at this time, some vegetables could still be bought.
After simply buying some eggs, tomatoes, cucumbers and other vegetables, he quickened his pace back with the bag in hand.
Soon, he was in front of the door of the apartment. The faint smell of rust reached his nose. Ye Shuang couldn't help but look down at the keyhole.
He suddenly found that there were traces of liquid flowing down from the keyhole all the way to the ground, and the water mark still had a copper-colored rust.
It was as if someone had deliberately poured some liquid into it.
Ye Shuang frowned slightly. Then, he took out the key and turned the door lock. He also noticed that the door wasn't as easy to open as he had imagined.
"Student Bai Yuyou, are you up?" After successfully opening the door, as soon as Ye Shuang walked in, his body stiffened like he had been electrocuted.
He saw the long-haired girl lying on the ground, her hair scattered around like tree roots. She had her eyes closed and her face was pale.
Ye Shuang quickly stepped forward and grabbed her shoulders, shaking her, but there was no response.
Bai Yuyou's body temperature wasn't high. In fact, it felt a bit cold to the touch. Realizing that something was seriously wrong, Ye Shuang immediately picked up his phone to call the emergency number.
However, the moment he took out his phone, he met the girl's beautiful and clear eyes.
"You... Are you okay?" Seeing that Bai Yuyou had opened her eyes and was looking at him, Ye Shuang finally let out a sigh of relief.
Bai Yuyou looked at Ye Shuang quietly. After staying still for about seven or eight seconds, a gurgling sound came from her abdomen, and then the girl's voice came.
"be hungry"
Ye Shuang: "..."
How could someone faint from hunger?
"Didn't you eat yesterday?" Ye Shuang asked Bai Yuyou, who was sitting on the floor in a kneeling position.
"I gave you the instant noodles." Bai Yuyou said, with a tuft of hair on her head slightly 翘起.
Remembering the pack of five-in-one pickled cabbage beef noodles from last night, Ye Shuang twitched the corner of his mouth. "Then why didn't you go out to eat something? There are still breakfast items on sale outside."
Bai Yuyou lowered her eyes, and a few strands of hair slid down her shoulders. Her tone was a bit disappointed. "I can't find the key."
Ye Shuang subconsciously touched the key in his pocket. Obviously, he had taken the key out. After holding back for a while, he said,
"It's my fault."
Hearing this, Bai Yuyou's face leaned closer. There was no sense of distance at all. Her voice was slow and gentle. "Fault?"
The sudden closeness made Ye Shuang's heart skip a beat for no reason. Thinking about the age difference of almost eight years between them, he silently said in his heart that it was a sin. Then, he stood up, picked up the food, and walked into the kitchen.
"Wait a moment. You'll have something to eat soon."
"Okay."
The kitchen of this house looked like it hadn't been used for a while, but there were still traces of the last use. This made Ye Shuang feel a bit strange.
Logically speaking, if Bai Yuyou couldn't cook, there shouldn't be any signs of tidying up in the kitchen. Could it be that someone else had lived in this house?
However, since he didn't know more details about Bai Yuyou, Ye Shuang didn't take this matter to heart.
Skillfully picking up the kitchen knife and rubbing it on the bottom of the bowl, he cut the tomatoes, cracked the eggs, and simply made a dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes. And because he hadn't bought any meat, he also made a dish of stir-fried cucumbers, and made a soup with loofah and fried eggs.
During this process, Bai Yuyou stayed by Ye Shuang's side. Looking at his skillful appearance, she would occasionally help pass the seasoning bottle and the plate.
For the remaining time, Bai Yuyou kept her eyes on Ye Shuang. Wearing a clean T-shirt, although his figure was thin, he wasn't weak. His black broken hair casually fell on his forehead. His eyes under the thick black eyebrows didn't look sharp at all. There was even a bit of tenderness in his deep eyes. With his tall nose bridge and thin lips, he was a complete handsome guy.
At this time, Ye Shuang felt something was wrong. Because the girl beside him almost stuck to him. Even through the school uniform, he could feel the heavy pressure and temperature. Not to mention the faint scent of her body that came from time to time.
Turning his head and meeting the expressionless little face, Ye Shuang could only smile and say, "Aren't you a bit too close?"
Bai Yuyou didn't seem to understand. She just tilted her head and asked, "Did I do something wrong?"
