Chapter 89 Takeaway
Bai Su's eyes wandered to the "big gift bag" in front of him.
It’s not something very expensive, but it’s very thoughtful.
He thought the thank-you gift would be something like money, but he didn't expect it to be prepared food. From the gaps in the bag, he could see some handwritten notes, which seemed to be notes on how to eat.
Humans are really interesting creatures.
However, does the old man in front of him know what he is about to experience?
The black-haired young man put his hands on his knees and sat there upright, his head hanging slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, he loosened his grip on the fabric of his pants, raised his head and smiled: "Thank you, Grandma Wang."
The black eyes were like the finest black jade. The old man had poor eyesight and could only see a faint smile on the surface, so the old man also smiled and continued to say thank you.
What are you going to do next?
Bai Su actually didn't know exactly what he wanted to take as a reward for the entrustment.
Feeling...should be something important.
Just as he was thinking about how to operate, the old man across from him started talking nonchalantly, and started to care about the interaction between Bai Su and his granddaughter - the interaction between friends.
"Xiao Bai, last time I heard you calling Nannan on the phone...Mu Ying? Has the relationship improved?"
"Yes." Bai Su nodded, "She helped me a lot."
The enthusiasm of the human girl helped him a lot, making him become gregarious quickly... well, he was still a bit unsociable, but at least he looked the same on the surface.
The old man smiled and nodded while listening. It was not clear what the old man was thinking. Anyway, she was in a happy mood and repeatedly said "That's good" and "That's good".
"I didn't expect my daughter to be friends with you. I was a little worried about her before."
Bai Su only had time to say a short syllable of "Huh?", but the old man was already talking to himself.
"She is from a single-parent family. There are always some people... Oh, I won't talk about it anymore. That's all in the past. Let me tell you something happy."
The old man told an interesting story about his recent square dance with his friends. He also said that he was going to travel to a nearby area in two days. He also complained that the travel agency did not dare to accept her to travel further away because she was older.
"Usually I should talk to Nannan about these things, but now she is in college and only comes back once a week." The old man smiled, "I am very happy to have Xiaobai come to chat with me."
"I have to thank you again for Nannan."
The old man's topic from beginning to end was only about his granddaughter. He did not mention his children, namely Wang Muying's parents. It seemed that those two people were not important.
Perhaps, it is due to the lack of parental obligations.
But this has nothing to do with Bai Su. He probably understands what he can take away.
The black-haired young man maintained a listening posture. When the old man's throat became thirsty, he handed over the still warm water at the right time. When the water was finished, he took the initiative to pour it.
"I'll go." Bai Su stood up, "Are you in the kitchen?"
"Hmm, the hot water bottle is over there, be careful not to burn yourself."
Under the guidance and instructions of the old man, Bai Su picked up two cups and left the sofa. When he passed behind the old man, he stopped slightly.
His footsteps were so light that they were inaudible to the hearing-impaired old man. Moreover, the old man was still using his smartphone to poke messages one by one.
Focus and not pay attention to other things.
It’s pretty good, you won’t be scared if you can’t see it.
Put the two cups in one hand and hold them in one hand. The soft white material is placed between the porcelain cups to prevent the objects from making any collision sound.
The shadow under the light swelled and floated, and gradually separated from the human form. The white outline spread its teeth and claws, and was about to wrap up the old man's head.
Just as he floated up, there was a knock on the door.
Not only did I knock once, but I knocked several times in succession, and the door made a dull sound.
The knock on the door was so loud that the old man could not hear it. She turned around following the sound and found Bai Su standing behind her.
"Hey Xiaobai, haven't you gone to pour the water yet? I'll open the door..."
"Grandma Wang, sit down while I go."
The black-haired young man returned to normal and narrowed his eyes, hiding the displeasure in his eyes.
……
There are not many households on the first floor of the old-fashioned public housing, so you can basically go up the stairs and turn left and right to get to the end.
Someone started knocking on the door one by one from the first floor. It was noon on a working day. Some people had either gone out to work, or they said they had not ordered takeout and refused to open the door.
The man came to the third floor and knocked on the first two rooms, but there was no response. Until he knocked on the third door, there was some movement inside.
"Who?"
"Hello, the takeaway you ordered has arrived."
Then there seemed to be the sound of people talking and talking, coming towards the door.
Great, someone finally came to open the door. All he had to do was hand over the takeaway, just hand over the takeaway——
"Crunch."
The door opened outwards, and a dark-haired young man with a sinister expression stood inside.
Anyone who is interrupted while working is not in a good mood, especially when Bai Su is doing something important.
He opened the door and saw a delivery boy standing outside, wearing a helmet and uniform, holding a packed plastic bag with an order note attached.
At least, that's what it looks like on the surface.
Except for the other party's face, which was pale to blue, there were brown spots on his neck and wrists, there was mud or dirt stuck in the gaps between his fingernails, and his clothes were wet and dripping with water.
I don’t know what’s in the plastic bag. There are white and yellow maggots crawling out of it, and flies are lingering around. It doesn’t look like a normal takeout.
The old man's voice came from behind: "Xiao Bai, I didn't order takeout."
Bai Su raised his voice and replied: "I know, let me ask."
Under the surprised gaze of the "delivery man" outside the door, Bai Su responded. He took a step outside and closed the door behind him slightly, leaving only a crack.
Unable to see from inside the door, Bai Su glanced at the other two closed doors and judged that no one was home.
There are no surveillance cameras in the hallway of my husband’s room.
That's it... Bai Su smiled at the delivery man.
"I ordered... takeaway, right?"
The takeaway man nodded. Although he didn't know what was going on and how the people inside the room came out, he just had to hand over the takeout.
The delivery boy raised his hand stiffly, and some soil fell between his fingers. He wanted to hand over the bag.
Bai Su didn't reach out to pick it up, but looked disgusted and covered his mouth and nose with his hands.
The takeaway boy's smile froze: "Sir...your takeaway?"
"How should I put it..." Bai Su made a fan with his hand and waved it in the air to disperse the unpleasant smell, "You weak supernatural beings who harm people, do you all have to make a move to ask for permission?"
