Mr. Zhao Fei's house squatting neighbor

06

"Huazi! Huazi~!"

Zhao Fei opened the door of the house.Hearing the sound, the cow cat, who had been waiting behind the door, jumped out and just jumped into the arms of Xu Chaoran who was squatting down.

"I'm back! Did you miss me? Did you make Uncle Zhao angry?"

Hua Zai rubbed his little head affectionately on Zhao Fei's face, meowing so loudly.

"I miss you, Huazai~" Xu Chaoran hugged Huazai, letting her pink nose touch his own.Huazai let out a happy "Mi!"

Xu Chaoran put down Huazi contentedly, and stepped into the porch of Zhao Fei's house. "Let's have dinner, Huazi!"

what……

Zhao Fei, who was watching from the side, opened his mouth slightly.

He doesn't like other people coming into his home very much.In the past few days, because of the black and white hair that Huazai fell off, he wiped the floor, coffee table and sofa more than ten times very carefully.

However, Xu Chaoran didn't care at all, took off his shoes and glanced at him.

"Well, can I borrow some slippers?"

Zhao Fei pointed to a pair of slippers placed in the entrance. "..."

Xu Chaoran put on Zhao Fei's slippers.It seemed that he was a size smaller, and his walking was a little cramped, but it didn't affect his happiness when he saw Huazai in the slightest.

"Oh, the location of the water bowl and rice bowl is the same as my house!" Xu Chaoran turned his head and looked at Zhao Fei, smiling so hard that he couldn't see his eyes. "I have a heart, Mr. Zhao. Thank you so much these days."

Before Zhao Fei had time to say "You're welcome", Xu Chaoran was already hugging Hua Zai: "Then let's treat Uncle Zhao to dinner, shall we?"

The cow cat let out a cheerful "meow!" in a very cooperative manner.

Xu Chaoran skillfully opened the can for Huazai, poured it into a bowl, added some water, stirred it evenly, and put it in front of Huazai.

Huazai started to eat while sniffing his little nose.Zhao Fei stood aside, watching the silhouette of Xu Chaoran starting to pack up the flower supplies.

There is a feeling of reluctance, which slowly spreads to the whole body.

He thinks about this past week.Every night, Hua Zai obediently squats in the porch waiting for him to come home.

Lovingly twirling his feet while he prepares dinner.

After dinner, I wanted to read a book, but Hua Zai jumped on me.Twisting her buttocks and squatting on the pages of the book arrogantly, her big yellow eyes blinked slowly at him once, then again.

"Mr. Zhao!" Xu Chaoran pushed his arm, interrupting Zhao Fei's distraction. "I've packed my things. Come to my house for dinner."

"..." Zhao Fei looked at Huazi in Xu Chaoran's arms.The eye sockets are a little sore.He nodded slightly, followed behind Xu Chaoran, and closed the door of his house.

Huazai returned home, first sniffing here and there on the floor for a long time, his little ears pricked up vigilantly, and his head was shaking from side to side vigilantly.

"Huazai, this is your home!" Xu Chaoran, who walked to the living room with a soup bowl, looked at Huazai's movements of getting familiar with the environment again, dumbfounded.

Under Xu Chaoran's gesture, Zhao Fei sat down at the dining table.Xu Chaoran's dinner is a very simple boiled chicken with fresh mushrooms and fungus added, which tastes very fresh.There is also a plate of fried vegetables that couldn't be simpler.

There was a bowl of rice in front of him, but the rice in Xu Chaoran's bowl was half less than his, and some hot water was added.After setting up the bowls and chopsticks, Xu Chaoran sat down opposite Zhao Fei. "It's a normal job, please bear with me."

Zhao Fei picked up a piece of mushroom and chewed it slowly. "...It's delicious." After swallowing, he whispered.

"Really?" Xu Chaoran was very happy. "My friends say that the food I cook is only at an 'edible' level... eat more, you're welcome."

"Yeah." Zhao Fei didn't hesitate anymore, and his chopsticks moved more decisively.

The depressed mood when I got off work has dissipated unconsciously.He looked at Huazai who was squatting on the floor, tilting his head to watch them eat, and then at the man across the table.

"What's the matter?" Noticing his staring gaze, Xu Chaoran stopped eating the porridge spoon bitterly and asked.

"...It's okay." Zhao Fei finally buried the words in his heart.

Same as every day.

Although Xu Chaoran tried his best to persuade him to stay, Zhao Fei left quickly after dinner.He was overjoyed that the two of them got a little closer, but he also felt that Zhao Fei was forcing himself, and his mood was a little too low.

"Do you think I'm annoying..." Xu Chaoran lay on the sofa, rubbing Huazai's little head sadly.

Huazai lay comfortably on Xu Chaoran's chest, diligently licking and cleaning his hair.

Before he could be sad for a few more minutes, the phone placed on the coffee table buzzed and vibrated.

"Hello, old thank you?" Xu Chaoran answered the phone. "Write the code of another module first? It can be..."

Listening to the complaints on the phone, a clear smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"That's what the project is like. Got it. I'll send it to you on Sunday night...you're welcome. Give me a little more for outsourcing."

After hanging up the phone, he patted Huazai's head again, yawned and sat up.

"It's obvious that I just got out of the hospital today..." Xu Chaoran pressed the back of his neck and reluctantly walked towards the desk in the corner of the living room.After turning on the computer, he quickly entered the working state, and put the reverie a moment ago behind his head.

After that, Xu Chaoran stayed at home throughout the weekend, rushing to work except for three meals a day and sleeping time.After completing the code on Sunday night, he reviewed it by himself and found one or two small problems. After making some modifications, he sent it to Lao Xie without thinking. ——Anyway, even if this is the case, I have already helped those guys.Xu Chaoran stretched greatly, but swayed slightly when he stood up.

Sure enough, you can't act like this just after the operation... Xu Chaoran remembered what the doctor said to move more or the mucous membranes would stick together, so he got up and did a set of radio gymnastics in fright.

Huazai, who couldn't find time to play with his master these two days, also rushed over, rubbed against Xu Chaoran's slippers and began to meow coquettishly.Xu Chaoran hummed and laughed, and took out a cat teasing stick with a "shua".

"Let's play together! Huazi!"

"Meow!"

Just as one person and one cat were having fun, Huazai suddenly stopped, his little ears turned towards the door, and kept moving back and forth.

Immediately afterwards, the doorbell rang.

Xu Chaoran walked to the entrance, looked out through the peephole, and quickly opened the door.

"Zhao Fei... sir? What's the matter?"

Zhao Fei, who was standing at the door, was lowering his head.Xu Chaoran couldn't see his expression, but could only see the reddish pinnae slightly protruding from the slender hair.

"……?"

"What?" Xu Chaoran lowered his head and listened attentively.

Zhao Fei's voice became louder. "Can I... come and see Huazi?"

"Of course! No problem at all!" Xu Chaoran opened the door excitedly, and secretly gave Huazi a thumbs up: Well done, Huazi!It's not in vain that I treat you like a son!

Zhao Fei thanked in a low voice, walked into the entrance lightly, and put his slippers on the ground.

"Meow~!" Huazai ran over excitedly with small steps, and his little head arched towards Zhao Fei's trousers.
