Xue Li held the funny face upright in his hands without even moving his eyes. His acting skills were very good.

Qu Yanning twitched the corners of his mouth, managed to maintain a calm expression and took the paper figurine over, "I just made it for fun, but I didn't expect you to pick it up."

Xue Li scratched his head and smiled, "Yesterday you kept holding it in your hand. I thought it was something important to you, so I put it away."

Qu Yanning stuffed the funny face into the quilt, held it down with one hand to keep it from moving, and said with a smile on his face, "It's actually not that important."

Xue Li was hesitant to speak, he opened his mouth, and stammered, "That...Actually...this paper figurine seems to be able to move."

"..." Qu Yanning smiled, pressed his funny face hard, and said with a dry smile: "How could it be? Did you read it wrong? Now it's a scientific society, how can paper figurines move?"

Xue Li gave him a serious look, and said, "That may be because my eyes are dazzled."

Qu Yanning didn't want to get entangled in the funny face, so he changed the subject, "Did you go to the police station to take notes? What did the police say?"

Xue Li said that the police have no clues yet, but the monster that attacked them may be related to the strange murder on Jianghong Road.

"Police say it's possible it's the same killer."

Qu Yanning recalled the monster's face, his teeth were sharp, and there were faint bloodstains, it was indeed the same as the blood-sucking monster on Jianghong Road.

"You're going to rest." Seeing that they were still talking, Xie Qi came over and interrupted, "The doctor said you need to rest more, the police will investigate the case, and your task is to heal your injuries."

Qu Yanning pursed her lips, shrank into the bed, only showing a pair of eyes and did not answer.

"Brother Naqu, you should rest first, I'll come to see you another day." Xue Li winked, seeing that Xie Qi didn't want them to talk more, he wisely offered to go first, saying that he still had to go to the store.

Qu Yanning nodded, saying that the store has worked hard for him during this time.

When the person left, Xie Qi snorted softly and covered him with the quilt so that he could take a nap at ease.

Qu Yanning couldn't resist him, so she could only close her eyes obediently.

The more Chu Zhou watched from the side, the more he felt that something was wrong, and whispered to Zhang Ren, "You said that Xie Qi is a little bit..."

Zhang Ren coughed, took his hand and walked out, "Let's wait for them to figure out their own affairs."

Chu Zhou was still muttering, and turned his head to look at Qu Yanning full of worry.

Xie Xiaobao and Xie Meili were unwilling to leave, but Xie Yan forcibly carried them away one by one, leaving Xie Qi and Qu Yanning in the ward.

Xie Qi was sitting beside the hospital bed, looking at him raptly. Qu Yanning had really fallen asleep. He lost a lot of blood before, and he couldn't make up for it in a short while. He was short of energy and blood, so he was particularly prone to fatigue.

Xie Qi tucked the quilt up for him, then picked up the funny face that slipped out from the gap in the quilt, and said in a low voice, "Don't disturb him."

The eyes of the funny face moved, and he put his hands behind his back, looking like I was very well-behaved. Xie Qi conveniently put him on the table, and turned himself into a cat, carefully lying down beside Qu Yanning.

He shook his ears, his tail slipped through the gap in the quilt, and gently wrapped around Qu Yanning's wrist.

Qu Yanning spent a week in the hospital for his injuries, and was discharged after the stitches were removed from the wound on his shoulder.

On the day of discharge from the hospital, Xie Qi was also with him, and Chu Zhou drove over to pick him up, saying that everyone else was already waiting at home.

It was probably the first time that the family was so lively. Zhang Ren, Chu Zhou, Xue Li, Xie Yan, Xie Xiaobao and Xie Meili were all present.

Xie Qi and Qu Yanning entered the door together. Xie Xiaobao, who was sitting and watching TV obediently, moved his ears. When he saw Qu Yanning, his eyes lit up and he jumped up and hugged his leg, softly calling him brother.

Xie Meili was a step slower, but also staggered forward and hugged Qu Yanning.

Qu Yanning patted their heads one by one, led one in with one hand, Xie Qi followed behind with luggage, and went back to the room to put the luggage after closing the door.

Although Qu Yanning's wound has healed, but the wound is deep, and he can't do any drastic action for the time being. The two cubs have been confessed, and the sensible one didn't let him hug him, and sat next to him one by one.

Xie Xiaobao also hugged the macadamia nuts in his arms, Xiaopang peeled the shells with a sheller in his hand, and after peeling a small pile, he held up a plate for Qu Yanning to eat.

Qu Yanning's smiling eyes curled up, he ate one by himself, and then stuffed another one into his and Xie Meili's mouths, the three of them ate their cheeks swollen.

Xie Yan and Xue Li were cooking in the kitchen, Xie Yan was in charge of cooking, Xue Li was in charge of helping, and Zhang Ren and Chu Zhou were washing the vegetables.

There are a lot of people working, and the meals are prepared quickly. Ten dishes and one soup fill a large table.

Qu Yanning's wounds are not healed, and she can't eat spicy food, so she only cooks light dishes.Chu Zhou put the dishes on the table and called them to come over for dinner.

Several people sat around the dining table, Xie Xiaobao and Xie Meili had already grabbed the seat next to Qu Yanning, and surrounded Qu Yanning in the middle.

When Xie Qi came out, he stared at the only empty seat and squinted his eyes, reached out to pick up Xie Xiaobao, and put him on the seat next to him.

Xie Xiaobao pursed his mouth, and looked at his second brother aggrievedly, Xie Qi gave him a faint look, sat down firmly, and poured tea for Qu Yanning's empty cup.

Xie Xiaobao, who dared not speak out, clamped a chicken leg in grief and indignation.

"Drink some soup to warm your stomach first." Xie Qi served Qu Yanning a bowl of soup and put it in front of him. Qu Yanning held the bowl and whispered thanks, his ears were a little red again.

"You don't need to be so polite." Xie Qi picked another piece of steamed pork ribs for him, and said lightly: "You used to take care of me, but now it's not bad for me to take care of you."

Qu Yanning was taken aback for a moment, seeing his gentle eyebrows and suddenly smiled, he picked up the ribs and took a bite, humming insignificantly.

So everyone at the dinner table was forced to watch Xie Qi's feeding scene. Qu Yanning didn't even have to open his mouth. With a movement of his eyes, Xie Qi's chopsticks were stretched over, and the cooperation was very tacit.

Xue Li was next to Chu Zhou, he leaned towards Chu Zhou, and said in a low voice, "Brother Qu and Master Xie...the two of them..."

Chu Zhou was eating a chicken wing. Xie Yan's craftsmanship was really good. He bit the chicken wing and said vaguely: "What's wrong with the two of them? Eat well, and don't gossip about adults."

"..." Xue Li sat back, looked at Xie Yan who was eating very seriously on the other side, and silently stuffed a piece of ribs into his mouth.

After dinner, those who have something to do will leave first.

Chu Zhou didn't want to see the two of them unconsciously showing affection, so he dragged Zhang Ren back first, Xue Li wanted to go back to the store, and Xie Yan wanted to go back to work in Jade Garden, and finally Xie Xiaobao and Xie Meili were left refusing to leave. Tired of dawdling next to Qu Yanning.

When everyone dispersed, Xie Meili, who was walking wobbly, turned back into a cat shape, then threw herself into Qu Yanning's arms, meowing and rubbing against him.

Qu Yanning gently scratched her chin with his fingers, Xie Meili rolled over his fur belly, lay on his back and hugged his fingers with four paws, his little tail flapped happily up and down.

Seeing this, Xie Xiaobao also turned back into a cat, twisted his chubby body, and squeezed onto Qu Yanning's lap.

Xie Meili kicked him dissatisfied, and meowed: "Little Baofat, squeeze me."

Xie Xiaobao tucked his body together, tried to put his bulging belly in, and meowed angrily, "I'm not fat!"

Xie Meili meowed in disgust, and moved to the side.

Seeing the two cubs meowing like they were fighting, Qu Yanning quickly stroked their heads and smoothed their hair gently.

Xie Xiaobao lay on his side with his hairy belly exposed, and made two comfortable grunts, feeling drowsy from being full, and fell asleep grunting.

Touching the two cubs sleeping in a ball, Qu Yanning looked sideways at Xie Qi, "You don't have to keep guarding me, my injury is almost healed."

Xie Qi looked at him with deep eyes, "I haven't caught the monster from last time."

Qu Yanning hesitated, "Shouldn't we encounter such unlucky encounters again?"

"You thought it was just a bad encounter?" Xie Qi looked at his confused expression and sighed.

From the time he sent Qu Yanning to the hospital, he discovered that the aura of pure Yin body on Qu Yanning's body was getting heavier and heavier, as if the protective film covering him before had been torn off, and his original Physique is gradually waking up.

Xie Qi was a little helpless, "That monster, it's hard to say, it's coming for you."

Qu Yanning was puzzled.

"Pick up the clothes and let me have a look." Xie Qi didn't explain immediately, but made another request.

Qu Yanning looked at him in a circle, but Xie Qi's expression was serious, so he had no choice but to roll up his clothes slowly.

The fair skin was covered with even flesh and bones. Xie Qi's eyes fell on his chest, his ears were a little hot, he coughed lightly and looked away, calmly said: "The red mole on your chest is gone."

Qu Yanning said yes, "It just disappeared after waking up after having a dream last time."

Xie Qi frowned and fell into deep thought, thinking about the relationship between the red mole and him.

The situation at that time was extremely dangerous. If Qu Yanning hadn't calmed him down from the riot, he might not have been able to pass through adulthood so smoothly.

And it was a blessing in disguise, awakening the blood of the white tiger, Xie Qi frowned, and suddenly recalled the scent that fascinated him when he first met Qu Yanning.

Xie Qi moved closer to Qu Yanning, sniffing at his neck.

Qu Yanning shrank her neck and stepped back, "What are you doing?"

"Don't move," Xie Qi pressed his shoulder lightly, carefully distinguishing for a while, Qu Yanning did not have the aura that made him unconsciously fascinated before.

"So it's like this..." Xie Qi loosened his brows, as if he had figured out something.

Qu Yanning was at a loss, Xie Qi recovered from his contemplation, and slowly clarified the relationship for him.

Qu Yanning originally had a pure yin constitution. Normally, he was weak and sickly since he was a child, and he was easily haunted by sneaks. It would be considered lucky to live to eighteen, but Qu Yanning lived to adulthood in good health.

Xie Qi thought that it was the elders of the Qu Yanning family who changed his life against the sky, but now it seems that it may not be the change of fate against the sky, but the use of the precious white tiger blood essence to forcibly suppress the pure yin physique for him.

So he can grow up like a normal person.

The white tiger's blood essence reaches yang, and it interacts with the pure yang body, which just harmonizes Qu Yanning's physique. Now that the white tiger's blood essence is absorbed by Xie Qi, the pure yin body that was forcibly suppressed before slowly regains consciousness.

That's why Qu Yanning was missed by that monster.

"Sorry," Xie Qi's eyes were filled with apology. Although the matter was not what he wanted, Qu Yanning was indeed hurt because of him.

Qu Yanning never thought that a single red mole would trigger so many things.

He blinked blankly, "Even without the white tiger blood essence you mentioned, I'm fine now, it shouldn't be as serious as you said... right?"

Xie Qi patted his head, with some worry in his eyes, "I hope so."

Seeing his solemn expression, Qu Yanning didn't know what to say to comfort him, so he fell silent.

Instead, Xie Qi suddenly said: "As compensation, I will always be by your side to protect you until I find a way to suppress the pure yin body again."

Qu Yanning was a little embarrassed, saying that two big men can't get tired of being together all day long.

The corner of Xie Qi's mouth hooked up, and he changed back to the appearance of a good boy, pressed a furry claw on his hand, tilted his head and meowed.

People can't follow them all the time, but cats can.

"Good boy," Qu Yanning said subconsciously, and then she pursed her lips in embarrassment, two shallow dimples appeared on her cheeks.

On the contrary, Xie Qi took the initiative, stretched out his head and rubbed his cheek on the back of his hand.

The size of the cat is a full size larger than before, and its body and face already look like an adult cat, but it is still irresistible to act coquettishly.

Qu Yanning's hand reacted faster than his brain. He turned over his palm, put his palm on the cat's head, and touched it gently.

Xie Qi pursed his ears, and let out a pleasant purring sound from his throat, his long tail curled up and stretched out.

The corners of Qu Yanning's mouth curled up slightly, his eyes were dark and bright, "Then I will wrong you during this time."

Xie Qi meowed softly, walked up to his lap with paws and lay down, a big cat and two small cats nested together, the fluff made Qu Yanning obsessed with it.

……

One person and one cat seem to have returned to the previous way of getting along. Qu Yanning's shoulder injury is still not healed, and Xie Qi doesn't want him to hug him. Every day when Qu Yanning goes out, he walks beside Qu Yanning, with his fur tail waving, Then he rubbed against Qu Yanning's feet twice.

Qu Yanning took the cat out for a few times. Many people in the community knew that the young man on the [-]th floor had a cat that was smart, considerate and able to run away.

Now the smart, considerate and slippery cat is taking a walk with Qu Yanning, the weather is getting warmer, and more and more people come out for a walk and chat in the evening.

The young people were jogging on the path, while the old people were sitting under the big tree, talking slowly.

The orange sunset sprinkled down, coating the canopy of the big tree with a thin layer of red.

Qu Yanning walked around twice, and found a place to sit under the big tree.

Xie Qi lightly jumped and sat on his lap, lying on his stomach with his front paws in his mouth, his fluffy tail resting on Qu Yanning's hand.

The old people nearby were chatting about the latest news and gossip, and someone said: "Jianghong Road has been closed for rectification, do you know?"

Another old lady answered, "It's good to straighten things out. I'm going there. They're all young girls, all dressed up in enchanting ways. It's not serious business at first sight."

The man who spoke before said: "There are no children from good families who go in and out there, but the rectification is not because of this. I heard that... two more people died on Jianghong Road."

The others gathered around curiously when they heard the words, "He died again? Why haven't you seen the news?"

The old lady who spoke had a junior in the police station, so she was better informed than others.

She lowered her voice and said: "How dare you report it? I heard that the blood of the two dead people was not only sucked dry, but their internal organs were also dug out and eaten. My nephew happened to be out of the police that day, and he couldn't eat for several days after he came back. Dinner."

"You said... this was not done by humans, right?"

The others all looked shocked. The old people more or less believed in this, and the old ladies clasped their hands together and recited the Buddha's voice.

"Maybe it's some evil spirit that came out to eat people, it's a crime..."

Qu Yanning scratched Xie Qi's chin, leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Could it be the monster I met?"

They had guessed before, but there was no movement on Jianghong Road, and the monster never appeared again. Now it seems that it was not that there was no movement, but that the movement was too loud, and the police forcibly suppressed it.

Xie Qi meowed, his ears trembled, and he stood up straight and rubbed his head against his chin.

"Let's go back first," Qu Yanning touched his ears, "I'll go and ask for news later."

Xie Qi jumped off his lap and followed him, one person and one cat walking slowly towards the house.

After Qu Yanning fell asleep at night, Xie Qi got out of the warm blanket.

Jumping onto the bed, picked up the two sleeping paper figurines, Xie Qi opened the window and slipped out.

Jianghong Road was much quieter than before. The colorful neon lights were shining, but there was no pedestrian passing by on the street. In some places, there were barriers pulled by the police.

The bleak streetscape is set against the colorful neon lights, revealing a bleak decadence.

Xie Qi hid in the shadows, put the two paper figurines on the ground, and meowed softly at them.

The serious face bent over, pulled the eyeballs and turned around, and the funny face walked to the opposite side of the street.

Jianghong Road is an old street. Compared with the newly built high-rise buildings outside, this street looks old and is out of place with the high-rise buildings outside.

On both sides of the street are three or four-story small buildings, which look like residential buildings. Later, they were rebuilt and turned into a hair salon street. The first floor is a storefront, and the upper floor is decorated to look like a hotel, which is convenient for guests to stay overnight.

In the past, Jianghong Road was bustling and lively, and it could last until the early morning. Since three people died suddenly, the police intervened, and the place has become deserted. Not only are there fewer customers coming and going, but also the original residents who can move out Only a few who couldn't walk away stayed.

With a serious face and a funny face, he flicked through the shadows, started from the first house, and looked for the breath of the monster.

The funny face has seen monsters before, so the serious face pulls it to prevent it from running around, and looks for it one by one.

Xie Qi looked at it for a while, made sure there was no problem, flicked his tail, and hurried home.

Qu Yanning slept soundly, Xie Qi wiped his paws clean, jumped onto the bed, rubbed his face with him, then got into the quilt, carefully nestled next to him and fell asleep.

……

When he woke up the next day, Qu Yanning found that the paper figurine by the bed was gone, he asked the stretched Xie Qi, "Have you seen them?"

Xie Qi squinted his eyes and meowed, rubbing against Qu Yanning.

"I don't know where you sneaked off to again." Qu Yanning said to himself,

He once suspected that the reason why the funny face is so ugly is because he drew a face with an emoji, otherwise they were all made together. How could it be so different from the serious face?
