[Comprehensive] Rental Girlfriend Office
Chapter 53 Replacement Chapter
"Master Natsume, her physical condition is getting serious again." Xiao stood up, his gaze continued to fall on Midorima Anko's face.
Observing closely, he felt more and more that creatures like humans are too fragile.Even if there is no harm from monsters, you can perish yourself.
There is no such thing as sickness at all in monsters, it seems that there are only life and death.
Natsume put down the bag, walked a few steps faster, touched Xing's head, luckily it wasn't very hot, it should be just a low-grade fever, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Xiao, "The temperature doesn't feel very high, it should be much better tomorrow .”
Xing slept soundly, Natsume didn't want to disturb the patient, so he went out and closed the door.
Teacher Cat, I guess I'm still messing around somewhere, it's still early, Natsume doesn't plan to go out to look for it, and decides to wait.
"Your name is Xiao, right?" There was only this human-like monster in the room.
Fortunately, his uncle and aunt were not there, otherwise he wouldn't dare to talk to this monster so openly.
I was rushing to work today, and I didn't drink any water. When I went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water, I saw a few sweet potatoes on the table.
Natsume's gaze rested on the table that had been soiled by fresh sweet potatoes.
"this is?"
"I saw her eating a big bowl of porridge made from sweet potatoes. I thought she liked it very much, so I dug some in the woods as compensation." Explained to the monster who came over, finally sighed, and said with lost eyes, "I didn't expect that She didn't even move."
Natsume was speechless about the lake demon's answer, "I think Miss Midorima wouldn't just move things that pop up out of nowhere." Leaving aside the weirdness, normal adults have a certain degree of vigilance.
In order to prevent the lake demon from doing strange things again, Natsume said, "That's the end of this matter. If Miss Midorima asks, I will find other reasons to prevaricate." No matter what the reason is, it's better than Said it had something to do with monsters.
Normal people will definitely think that even he is crazy.
"Why did it end? I haven't apologized or made compensation to Ms. Midorima."
Compared with human beings, youkai is a person who accepts death. Since he hurt Midorima Xing, he felt that he had to make compensation.
Besides, Xiao is so fragile that he is lying on the bed now, so Xiao can't pretend that he didn't see it.
Natsume stroked his forehead and sighed softly, even though he said so. "However, humans cannot see monsters."
"Really?" Xiao took a step back, looked at his almost transparent hand, and realized the problem.
For hundreds of years, he has been guarding this lake. He rarely has contact with humans, and he only knows the world of monsters.
When Xing woke up, Natsume was sitting by the side flipping through a book.The fingers touching the pages of the book are slender, and under the white light, it seems that every joint can be seen clearly.
I slept very deeply in the afternoon, maybe it was too quiet here.
In the haze, it felt as if someone was always by her side. Sometimes, it seemed that there were hands touching her forehead gently to test the temperature.
She is like a newborn baby now, she likes people to stay by her side so that she can fall asleep with peace of mind.
"Natsume-kun, have you been here this afternoon?" Xing asked.
Natsume put down the book, unexpectedly Xing would ask, "I just came back not long ago." Saying that, she stood up and turned around to look for something, and came back a while later and handed over something wrapped in white paper.
Although there is no temperature, the rich mung bean flavor arouses the appetite of apricot.
"I bought it on the road. It's cold. It may not be as delicious as the freshly baked one."
The mung bean cake apricot is not disgusting. After taking a bite, the taste is not worse than that bought in the mall. "Thank you." Xing thanked her sincerely. After all, these are not within the contract, and Natsume-kun doesn't need to do them.
"No, I troubled you to come here." Natsume-kun's tone was gentle, his eyebrows and eyes were the same as his hair color, his eyes were soft, and he was easy to speak.
However, under that shallow smile, there is always a sense of alienation hidden, which cannot be touched by people.
"They'll be back tomorrow." Natsume and Aunt Tako talked on the phone, and they expected to arrive early tomorrow morning.
"En, that's good." Always have to start the task, and already stayed here for two more days, Xing felt that it really caused Natsume-kun a lot of trouble.
"What kind of people are Natsume-kun's parents, so I can make some preparations." According to the documents provided by the company, there is no information about Natsume-kun.
Lvma Xing suddenly felt that Natsume's gaze was a little darker and more melancholy.
"It's like this. My parents passed away a long time ago, and the Fujiwara couple who have been taking care of me will come tomorrow." Natsume squinted her eyes and smiled lightly, as if this was a too common problem.
Natsume's feeling is too peaceful, people subconsciously think that a person with such a good temper must have his parents who are also very warm people.
But I didn't expect such a family.
"I'm sorry, I made a slip of the tongue." Midorima Anko lowered her eyes and covered her mouth.
"It's okay, it's not your fault." Natsume comforted.This is just an established fact. The most difficult time has passed, and the wound in his heart has healed. He doesn't have any special feelings when he mentions them now.
He only knew that the most important family members now were the Fujiwara couple.
"They are all very nice people, just treat them like my parents." Natsume smiled.
Midorima Xing felt guilty, especially someone like Natsume who comforted her instead.
Xing has a very happy family with a good life, strict father and mother, and a brother who can be relied on. Although it is not comparable to a wealthy family, Xing already feels very happy.
She doesn't quite understand what it's like to be an orphan.
But just thinking about it, one day I will be alone in this world, and I will feel an indescribable loneliness covering my heart.
Presumably, what a lonely heart is hidden under the smile.
Xing didn't speak, she lowered her head, her hair color was similar to hers, but she was a beautiful person.
If there is a sister, it probably feels like this.
"Miss Midorima, you must cherish the happiness in front of you." Although Natsume doesn't know why Midorima Xing chooses this profession, special industries generally have their own stories.
Natsume stroked Xing's hair, it was soft as expected.I am used to intimate contact with customers, but, like an older brother's kind contact, Xing's heart softened.
For dinner, Xing and Natsume made it together.
Although Xing's cooking skills are not very good, compared to Natsume who rarely cooks, it is much better.
"Since Aunt Tazi went out, I haven't eaten such delicious food." During this period, the Fujiwara couple often went to the city to do business.Natsume stayed at home alone, sometimes he cooked a dish by himself, and sometimes he went directly to a shop in the town to eat a bowl of noodles.As a result, Mr. Cat often went to other people's houses to sell cute food.
Teacher Cat is often not seen.
When it comes to the Fujiwara couple who raised him, Natsume always has a sincere smile on his face.
After enough rest in the afternoon, Apricot Midorima won't be able to sleep for a while.Natsume was already fast asleep in the next room, next to a very fat cat.It seems that the relationship is very good, and the cat sleeps soundly next to Natsume.
Apricot Midorima, who was rolling on the bed and couldn't sleep, put on a thick coat and left the house.The cold air in winter stimulates the brain and makes people more conscious.
The yard of Natsume's house is not big, and inside the yard are steps paved with stones.
Most of the trees in this season have withered, leaving only bare branches standing in the cold wind, and the gray skin glows coldly under the moonlight. ,
Thinking of Natsume-kun's life experience, Xing couldn't calm down, perhaps because compared with him, as a happy self who stubbornly opposed his family, it seemed too naive.
The phone's screen glowed faintly.
It was nearly 11 o'clock in the evening.Xing is basically not at home these years, but as long as I can remember, I know that my father has always liked to work until 12 o'clock in the evening.
Probably haven't slept yet.
I didn't pay attention before, but now that I think about it, it seems that I haven't heard my father's voice for a long time.
Is he still mad at her.
Xing stared at the screen of the phone for a long time, and finally slid her fingers to the top page of the address book.
"Xing, it's rare that you will call your father's cell phone."
It was Xing's mother who answered the phone, and she seemed very happy to hear Xing's voice.
"Mom" had already thought about what she wanted to say countless times in her head, but no one who was not expected answered the phone.
"Do you want me to ask your father to answer the phone?" Her mother's voice was as gentle as ever, Xing could already hear her mother's faint laughter.
"Don't, I" Xing couldn't help screaming.
"Okay," Mrs. Midorima said regretfully.
"Father called me yesterday. Is there something wrong?" Xing asked cautiously. Her father was always rigid and rarely lowered his head to look for her. It wasn't that he didn't love her, but he always liked to maintain the majesty of the head of the family.
A large part of the elder brother's character has been inherited from his father, he is not angry but powerful, and his words are concise.
"You're talking about this?" The mother smiled, subconsciously looking at the man behind him who was pretending to be serious about reading a book.
Mrs. Midorima deliberately raised her voice, deepening the smile in her eyes.
"Cough cough." Lu Jian's parents suddenly coughed twice, and under the light yellow light, there was an abnormal blush on their cheeks.
"He probably dialed the wrong number by accident." The mother chuckled, holding the phone and secretly looking at her husband.
"That's right." Xing was somewhat disappointed.
She did something wrong, she didn't have the face to go back, she just hid in her turtle shell, licking her wound alone.
However, there is no day when I don't want to go back.
"I see, then mom goes to bed early." The misunderstanding was cleared up, and Xing was about to hang up the phone, but unexpectedly, her mother finally mentioned a few words in a gentle tone.
"Xing, no matter what happens, this will always be your home."
"Come back during the Chinese New Year, your father has long wanted to see you."
After hanging up the phone, Xing's father, who was sitting on the sofa, almost stared wide-eyed, "What nonsense you just said." His tone was very aggressive, his skin was taut, and even the wrinkles on his skin were gone. many.
"Who wants to see her." The middle-aged man said angrily.
As for her husband's temper, Mrs. Midorima is very clear, typical hard-mouthed and soft-hearted.
"Aren't you reading a book? How did you hear what I said?" Mrs. Lu Jian immediately retorted, and after a short pause, she exclaimed, "Could it be that you are eavesdropping on me?"
Mr. Midorima's face was reddish, and he coughed violently a few times to cover up his panic, but his eyes could no longer focus on the book, he simply turned off the light, and said that it was getting late and it was time to go to bed.
The lake demon did not leave, but stayed nearby all the time.
Hearing movement in the yard, he flew over.
But he didn't expect to see the woman under the tree wearing white clothes, her skin was as white as snow, her eyes were clear, and her slender brows were slightly frowned.
Then, from the deep eye sockets, there was a liquid, slightly salty and warm.
"Why do humans like to cry so much?"
Tears dripped onto Xiao's hands, leaving a lingering warmth.
Xiao stood in front of Lvjian Xing and looked at Xing, but there was no shadow of him in her eyes.
Observing closely, he felt more and more that creatures like humans are too fragile.Even if there is no harm from monsters, you can perish yourself.
There is no such thing as sickness at all in monsters, it seems that there are only life and death.
Natsume put down the bag, walked a few steps faster, touched Xing's head, luckily it wasn't very hot, it should be just a low-grade fever, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Xiao, "The temperature doesn't feel very high, it should be much better tomorrow .”
