Chapter 55: Daily life and warmth(1/2)
Three days have passed since Su Qin hatched the fortune-teller from the stone.
During these three days, Zhaocai was just like an ordinary cat. There was nothing special about it, except that it fed on Su Qin's magic power and occasionally ate some cakes made by Bai Lei.
Everyone was curious about the newly added tiny cat, and even more shocked at how it came out of the stone.
Ye Qing and others are also well-informed, but they can't explain what kind of creature Lucky Money is.
Fortunately, Su Qin is also a big-hearted person, so he puts this matter aside and just treats it as a cat for the time being.
In fact, it is a bit smaller than a normal cat. If you look closely, Lucky Cat's body is black and shiny, and its pair of blue cat eyes are very obvious in the dark night.
Also, Zhu Tao came to pick up Zhu Jun, and the two planned to disappear and live a simple life in hiding.
Su Qin also asked them to stay, but they were refused, saying that he no longer wanted to stay in the city.
Su Qin did not force the request and had no choice but to let them leave on their own.
As for Sun Kexin's plan to go to her house for dinner, nothing has been said yet. Su Qin has just forgotten about it and will wait until the time comes to cover up the water and earth.
The only thing that concerned him was how to find a suitable place for Ye Qing and the others to stay.
Ye Qing said it was okay to just stay in the tavern, but Ye Kong and Ye Ming had a problem. They both couldn't stay idle and wanted to find some work, but they were not used to working in the tavern.
After thinking about it, Su Qin could only ask Lao Wang to use his connections to help them find something they like to do.
Finally, they went to a Taoist temple not far from the tavern. According to what Lao Wang said, he used to get his amulets here. He must have some skills. Ye Kong and the others shouldn't be bored there.
In this way, Su Qin spent some quiet time. Normally at night, when he had nothing to do, he would wander around, as if he wanted to find any clues about Bai Lian, but there was no clue.
He thought to himself: After the last sacrifice incident, they should take a while, but what is strange is that they did not come to the door. Could it be that Su Ziang did not tell Lao Wang and his identity?
With a skeptical attitude, another week passed.
Nothing strange happened during this period. If anything, the business in the store has been getting better and better recently.
Not only that, Su Qin often picked up money when he went out. When he encountered someone who committed murder and robbery at night, of course, Su Qin definitely stopped him and won a good citizen award from the police.
Lao Wang also gave himself all the money and jade he won from a bet with Liu Xing, which made his wallet bulging.
Touching the little head that attracts wealth, he said: "It's true that I called you fortune. Otherwise, my wallet would be bulging as soon as you came."
While smiling proudly, he suffered the contempt of the fortune-teller.
There was a time when he was still worried about the management of the tavern, but just a short time later, he was already living the life he wanted, where he could sit and count money and work as a hands-off shopkeeper.
…
Su Qin was fascinated by looking at the fortune. Yes, his life was comfortable, but his parents were still missing.
It's been so long and there's no news at all.
Sighing, he lay on the bed with Lucky in his arms and stared at the ceiling in a daze.
The key is that the parents left no trace of their departure. I also asked Lao Wang to help find their traces, but they seemed to have disappeared from the world and were nowhere to be found.
This gave Su Qin a headache.
"Zhaocai, tell me, where have my parents gone?" Su Qin murmured to Zhaocai.
As if sensing Su Qin's melancholy, Zhaocai no longer rolled his eyes and laughed at Su Qin, but jumped on top of his head and meowed twice.
"You said you were hatched from a stone. Do you have parents? Do you want to see them?"
"Meow!"
"It doesn't matter, I'm your family." He grabbed Zhaocai from his head, ignored the little guy's resistance, and rubbed it on its face while smiling happily.
"Su Qin, would you like to come here?" Ye Qing called outside the door.
"Coming."
Su Qin opened the door and saw Ye Qing hesitating.
"What's wrong?"
"After I turned into a ghost cultivator, I lost my thunder god body. Fortunately, I have the experience of previous cultivation and finally stabilized my body shape. I think..."
"Go to see Master and Senior Brother?" Su Qin saw through his thoughts at a glance.
"Um."
"Go. After all, they are the people closest to you. If you have nothing to do, you can bring them over to sit with you." After getting along for a while, Su Qin no longer had any prejudice against Ye Kong and Ye Ming.
"Thank you! I really don't know what to say other than thank you. Anyway, if you say anything from now on, I will help you no matter what you do." After receiving Su Qin's answer, Ye Qing relaxed completely.
"It's okay, we are all friends, why are we talking about this?" Su Qin hugged Ye Qing, "Let's go have a drink."
…
Not long after, the two of them fell drunk in the tavern, pulled each other on the table, and fell asleep.
"Boss, boss!" Liu Ying shook Su Qin, but he didn't move at all.
He shook his head helplessly and called Bai Lei over.
"What's wrong, Sister Liu?"
"No." Liu Ying pursed her lips.
Only then did Bai Lei realize that the two of them were so drunk that they were unconscious.
"This..." For a moment, Bai Lei didn't know what to do.
"Ye Qing is lucky. He is a ghost, so he won't catch the cold. Instead, he is the boss. He will catch a cold later."
"Then help him back to the room?"
"Let's go together. I just tried it and couldn't wake him up. I can't lift him alone."
"good."
One person on each side, Bai Lei on the right and Liu Ying on the left, they all used their strength to carry Su Qin to the room.
As for attracting wealth, he has long since disappeared, probably hiding somewhere to sleep.
Hiss, Su Qin doesn't look like such a heavy person, why is it so difficult to lift it up?
Bai Lei thought to herself.
Su Qin's figure is the kind that makes you look thin when dressed and muscular when undressed, but she looks thin.
While supporting him on the way back, Bai Lei couldn't help but look at Su Qin's side face.
He has a handsome and delicate face, with two sharp eyebrows inserted diagonally into his temples. His eyes are closed, but there is a little sadness between the eyebrows. People can't help but want to gently touch him to make his sadness disappear. His nose is high and his lips are thin.
She closed her eyes tightly, and a faint fragrance came from her slightly messy short hair.
Bai Lei was stunned for a moment, a little crazy.
Why didn't I think Su Qin was so good-looking before?
His handsome face was slightly red. At this moment, he was unconscious and felt less mysterious and distant than usual, but more close.
"Stop dawdling, put him on the bed."
"Ah, oh oh."
He hurriedly put Su Qin on the bed and covered him with a quilt.
"Someone seems to be calling me. I'll go out and take a look first. Just keep an eye on him and don't let him vomit." Liu Ying seemed to hear someone calling her and ran out quickly.
"Huh?" Before she could react, Liu Ying had already left, leaving only Su Qin and Bai Lei in the room.
Listening to Su Qin's breathing gradually becoming evener, Bai Lei felt relieved, as he probably wouldn't vomit.
"They say that one's character can be judged by the quality of wine. He fell asleep when he was drunk, so he must be considered to have good wine, right?"
"But I didn't expect him to be less annoying when he was drunk."
I stood up and looked around and found that the room was messy and things were scattered around.
I couldn't help but shake my head, why is this man so lazy?
Immediately began to clean up the house.
…
More than half an hour later, the whole room had a completely new look, and everything was packed away in order. Su Qin would probably wonder if it was his own room when he woke up.
Bai Lei wiped her slightly sweaty forehead, glanced at Su Qin who was sleeping soundly, sat on the edge of the bed, and looked at him.
I could only hear him talking in his sleep: "Don't, don't leave me!"
Hearing this, I couldn't help but frown, wow! I'm sorry I worked so hard to clean up the room here, but I was thinking about other girls in my dreams.
Then he stood up angrily and prepared to leave the room.
"Mom and Dad, where are you going? Don't leave me."
As if remembering something unhappy, Su Qin suddenly waved his hands and shouted excitedly.
Only then did Bai Lei realize that Su Qin was talking about her parents, and she knew she had misunderstood him.
He spat, "Bai Lei, Bai Lei, even if I'm thinking about other girls, what does it have to do with you?"
