Mr. Zhao Fei's house squatting neighbor

07

Zhao Fei didn't think of coming to Xu Chaoran on a whim.

Rather, according to his personality, he doesn't want to have too much contact with anyone if it is not necessary.

However, Huazai and Xu Chaoran... became his exceptions.

"Hua Zai." Zhao Fei stood in the living room, flying the feathers of the cat teaser in his hand.

Huazai squatted on the boundary line between the living room and the bedroom, carefully watching the trajectory of the feather in the air.

Zhao Fei threw the feather toy to the top of Huazai's head, and the milk cat jumped up and bit it in his mouth.

The cat-teasing lever was pulled violently and slipped from Zhao Fei's hand.Huazai worked hard to grab the toy that he had finally snatched into his mouth, and ran to the corner of the bedroom to hide it.

He had no toys, so he had no reason to play with Huazai, and he immediately stood there awkwardly.

After he entered the door, Xu Chaoran, who had been watching him secretly on a chair at his desk, pretended to inadvertently raise his head from the computer and pointed to the three-seater couch to Zhao Fei. "Sit down for a while. After Huazai hides the toy, he will think that humans will not find it, and then run out and sit on his lap to behave."

Zhao Fei seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and slowly sat down on the sofa.

Fortunately, his obsession with cleanliness was only aimed at himself, so even if he saw some books and items piled up in Xu Chaoran's house, he couldn't arouse the urge to tidy them up.But after returning to his home, he often has to wash clothes, bed sheets and quilt covers, and take a shower all night and all night.The time and energy wasted on this has exhausted him.

However, now he chooses to leave everything behind.An Xin sat on the sofa at Xu Chaoran's house, he quietly waited for Huazai to come over.Xu Chaoran tapped the keyboard quickly, and didn't seem to pay too much attention to him.

On the contrary, in someone else's home, Zhao Fei obtained the leisure and relaxation that he had never had for a long time.At some point, he closed his eyes slightly; at some point, his head rested on the back of the sofa, and he gradually fell asleep.

When he suddenly woke up, Zhao Fei felt a warm weight on his chest. Although it was pressing on him, it felt very comfortable.

At first he was a little confused, thinking he was at his own home.But he immediately remembered that he spent two days on the weekend before he mustered up the courage to run to the neighbor's house and try to use the cat to calm his heart.

He sat up abruptly.The startled cowcat falls from his chest to the floor without being caught.

"Huazi...!" Zhao Fei exclaimed.

The cow cat quickly got up from the floor and ran to the balcony with small steps.

"The cat's body is very soft, and this height can't trouble it." Behind him, a man's voice came to Zhao Fei's ears with the soft sound of keyboard tapping.

"I'm sorry... I fell asleep..." Zhao Fei pinched the edge of the quilt and apologized nervously.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Xu Chaoran laughed, with some concern in his words. "I think your dark circles are quite serious. Don't you usually sleep well?"

"...En." After a long time, Zhao Fei responded in a low voice.

"Is it because I can't sleep without Huazi?" Xu Chaoran still smiled. "Me too. Huazai sleeps on my chest in summer and under the quilt in winter. It's like a little padded jacket, warm and reassuring."

"When I was taking care of...Hua Zai," Zhao Fei said softly, feeling a little unwilling. "Hua Zai is sleeping on the sofa."

"That's weird, Huazai likes to sleep with me very much."

Xu Chaoran was like this, chatting with Zhao Fei without saying a word.Just now when Zhao Fei was sleeping soundly, he carefully looked at him from head to toe, and thus found the wound on his left thumb that had just healed, and the arm with red spots that could not be covered by his shirt.

After a while, Zhao Fei stood up from the sofa. "I should go back. Good night."

Xu Chaoran looked at him.There seemed to be something brewing on the man's silent face.Zhao Fei felt flustered for no reason under that gaze.

He stared blankly at the man standing up from the chair and walking in front of him.

"If you want Huazi in the future, just come here. I'm home every day." Xu Chaoran slightly raised the corners of his mouth. "if you do not mind."

Zhao Fei blinked his eyes. "Don't mind... what?"

He saw the man said with a relaxed face: "Don't mind that I only like men's words."

Zhao Fei's face suddenly turned red.Xu Chaoran still looked natural. "What's the matter? You should be too. We are on the same dial."

Zhao Fei panicked and didn't know where to look. "How do you know?!"

"This should have radar or feeling or aura..." Xu Chaoran didn't mind. "Then we are 'comrades', hehe."

Not wanting to understand such puns, Zhao Fei gave Xu Chaoran a cold stare.He walked quickly to the entrance, put on his shoes, closed the door and left.I even forgot to say goodbye.

"Anyway, I'll come again." Xu Chaoran made a victory gesture to Huazai who had returned to the living room. "Right! Huazi."

Hua Zai carefully licked his hind legs, and didn't have time to pay attention to his master's sudden happiness.

■

From that day on, Zhao Fei came uninvited almost every night.At first, he deliberately ignored Xu Chaoran with a cold face, but after the man greeted him while holding Huazai's cat paw, he surrendered helplessly.

"Hua Zai, give Uncle Xiao Fei a meow!" After dinner that day, Xu Chaoran seemed extremely excited.

Huazai glanced at his master, raised his hind legs and scratched his ears vigorously.

Of course he was happy for a reason.Zhao Fei was finally willing to come over after get off work under his soft and hard conditions, instead of arriving late after a good meal.Xu Chaoran used what he had learned all his life, practiced countless times, and finally made cola chicken wings with excellent color, fragrance and taste.Zhao Fei really ate a lot of this meal.

From the first time Xu Chaoran saw Zhao Fei, he felt that he was too thin.However, Zhao Fei ate a little slowly at the dinner last time and this time, but his appetite was not small.

Is he on a deliberate diet?Xu Chaoran thought for a while, and was about to make insinuations.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Fei was outspoken.

"Because I have obsessive-compulsive disorder and cleanliness."

"what?"

Zhao Fei seemed to have expected Xu Chaoran's "Is this considered sick?" expression. "I have to see a psychiatrist every half a month, get enough medicine for two weeks, and then talk to a therapist for about an hour."

Xu Chaoran's expression gradually became serious.He pointed at Zhao Fei's arm. "Are these also caused by obsessive-compulsive disorder?"

These?Zhao Fei lowered his head in doubt.It was hot to tease the cat, and he rolled up the cuffs of his long-sleeved pajamas, revealing his skin with red spots.

"Hmm..." Zhao Fei avoided Xu Chaoran's gaze, and his speech was not as fluent as before. "Because... I'm afraid of dirty things. Every night, I wash my clothes, sheets, and shower. I wash for about an hour each time."

He sat on the three-seater sofa, his shoulders shrunk, and he looked like a small ball.

Xu Chaoran sighed, walked to him and sat down. "Then...before I asked you to take care of Huazi, why didn't you tell me that you have a cleanliness? And my house is so messy, I insisted on you coming...I'm sorry."

Zhao Fei suddenly raised his head: "No... I like Huazi very much."

Xu Chaoran looked at him and silently encouraged him to continue.

"Huazi's hair, I don't hate it at all. It's just...it's just that I already like clean everywhere, so once I start cleaning, I can't stop..."

As he spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller. "Although your house is a mess, I don't feel uncomfortable because it has nothing to do with me..."

"Oh...that's it." Xu Chaoran listened, lost in thought.

It seems that Zhao Fei's cleanliness and obsessive-compulsive symptoms will only appear on himself.Although Xu Chaoran is a pure coder, he once took a semester of psychology in college.Why is this happening...

He decided to find out where the elective textbook was after Zhao Fei left.

"Since you don't hate Huazi, just come here! It doesn't matter if you live in my house." Xu Chaoran was born with a smile on purpose, and sure enough, he got Zhao Fei's disgusting gaze.He suddenly cast his eyes on the advertisement insert placed on the cabinet in the entrance.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Fei noticed that he seemed to be looking at something.

"It's okay." Xu Chaoran picked up the cat teaser. "Let's play for a while more. Huazi! It's time to play with Uncle Xiao Fei before going to bed!"

What kind of bedtime play is this... Although Zhao Fei was complaining in his heart, he took the pole honestly and waved it happily.
