Ghost World Office

The takeaway from the Chengkong Plaza restaurant was delivered quickly. As soon as the doorbell of Mai Xiaobo's house rang, Mai Xiaobo jumped up from his chair and rushed to the door to open it.

The delivery person was a boy who was about the same age as Mai Xiaobo.

After Mai Xiaobo opened the door, he immediately apologized to Mai Xiaobo in embarrassment:

"I'm so sorry, sir. I slipped and slipped on the way here, and the soup spilled a little."

It's snowing today and the road is slippery.In addition, when Mai Xiaobo was ordering food, he was pressed so hard on the phone that he slipped on the road.

Mai Xiaobo glanced sideways at the takeaway box in the boy's hand, and before the boy could say anything else, he went into a rage and started cursing:

"Then you have the nerve to send it over?!"

The boy was taken aback by Mai Xiaobo's sudden anger, and quickly apologized.But Mai Xiaobo didn't buy it at all, and wanted to call the restaurant supervisor cursingly to get the boy fired.

Hearing the word expulsion, the boy's face changed drastically. He bowed to Mai Xiaobo, rubbed his hands back and forth, and begged Mai Xiaobo not to call the supervisor:

"Sir, please. I'm really sorry. I'll pay you the unit price. Don't call the supervisor."

Chengkong Plaza is the most upscale community in S City, and the management of service employees is also very strict.

Naturally, under this kind of strict management, the service staff in the community have developed high emotional intelligence skills, and all of them are veterans.

According to Tao Ye, it means that the people here speak nicely, and all of them are talents.

The food delivery boy looked like he was new here. Facing Mai Xiaobo's accusation, he was completely incapable of coping except for apologizing.

Hearing the dispute between Mai Xiaobo and the boy, Tao Ye came out of the e-sports room leisurely, walked to the door, and asked Mai Xiaobo:

"what happened?"

Mai Xiaobo cursed and pointed at the boy: "He spilled the soup, and he's still moaning here."

Tao Ye glanced at the lunch box in the young man's hand, and said to the young man, "Open it."

The boy was already frightened by Mai Xiaobo, and his mind was weak, so he opened the lunch box without thinking.

In the lunch box, the meals ordered by Mai Xiaobo were neatly stacked, and two soups were slightly spilled, but it was not serious.

"Sir, I can compensate at the unit price... I'm really sorry, I'm really sorry..."

The teenager's voice was getting smaller and smaller, he was really afraid of losing the job.

Tao Ye glanced at the muddy water on the boy's knees, was silent for two seconds, and said to the boy:

"Call your supervisor."

The boy's eyes were inexplicably clouded, like a drowning man whose last straw had been broken, he took out his cell phone numbly, and dialed the number of the restaurant supervisor.

The supervisor arrived soon. As an old man who has been in Chengkong Square for many years, he could see what happened as soon as he arrived——

Difficult owners and ignorant newcomers.

Mai Xiaobo is well known in the real estate industry for being difficult.The owner of this super high-rise apartment building in Chengkong Plaza is either rich or expensive.In this building, the higher the floor, the more expensive the apartment type and house price.

Mai Xiaobo has always relied on Chen Xiang to be rich, and he has a relationship with celebrities in society, and never treats property owners as human beings.

The supervisor made a decisive decision, slammed the boy on the back, and yelled at the boy:

"Don't hurry up and apologize to the owner. How long have you been delaying him?"

The boy was obviously numb by Mai Xiaobo's scolding, his eyes were red, and he repeated his apology to Tao Ye and Tao Ye like a robot.

The supervisor wanted to say something to Mai Xiaobo and Tao Ye, but was interrupted by Tao Ye:

"What did you beat him for? I called you here mainly to praise him."

The remaining three people present were immediately stunned.

After a long while, the supervisor forced out a sentence:

"Excuse me... what?"

Tao Ye cleared his throat and said seriously:

"I said I wanted to praise him. He even brought us meals on New Year's Eve, in case we slipped on the road when we were hungry."

"But..." Mai Xiaobo just wanted to refute, but Tao Ye slapped his back hard, so he had to shut up.

Obviously brother Ye wasn't like this just now, why did he change his mind when the supervisor came.

The supervisor opened his mouth, and the always difficult and violent Mai Xiaobo actually obeyed this strange young man, which he never expected.

Is there anyone in the world who can cure Mai Xiaobo?The supervisor doesn't believe such a person exists.

After a while, the supervisor finally came to his senses and gave the boy another blow, urging him, "Speak up."

The young man glanced blankly at Tao Ye. Things were changing so fast that his little head couldn't react.

Tao Ye didn't expect any reaction from the boy, so he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened the online banking, and asked the supervisor:

"I don't have cash, how can I tip him?"

The supervisor didn't expect Tao Ye to give a tip, so he replied blankly:

"You can tip the courier on the order page."

Tao Ye snorted, and pushed Mai Xiaobo next to him: "You give him a reward of 1 yuan, and apologize to him by the way."

Of course Mai Xiaobo was not convinced, and said with a straight neck:

"I have no money, and I don't apologize!"

Tao Ye has never been used to anyone's stinking problems, except his own.He gave Mai Xiaobo a cold sideways glance, his gaze was like the silver light shining on the executioner's butcher's knife.

Mai Xiaobo was shuddered by Tao Ye's look, and quickly picked up his mobile phone and tipped the boy 1 yuan.

But as for the apology, Mai Xiaobo never apologized, insisting that he was right.

"Well then..."

Tao Ye shook his head regretfully, and asked the supervisor to lead the boy back first.Before leaving, the supervisor did not forget to give Tao Ye a deep bow, thanking Tao Ye for making Mai Xiaobo obedient.

Watching the two enter the elevator, Tao Ye turned his head to stare at Mai Xiaobo, and shouted word by word very seriously:

"Niezi! Do you know what you did?!"

Mai Xiaobo was taken aback. Although he didn't know where he was wrong, he softened his attitude under Tao Ye's obscenity and coercion, and asked in confusion:

"Brother, what the hell did I do?"

Tao Ye glanced at the cold takeaway by the door, and accused angrily:

"Why are you embarrassing him? The food is cold because of embarrassing him!"

"I usually do good deeds to accumulate virtue, but if you make a fuss, my morality will suffer greatly because of you!"

"If I knew it then, I should have asked your mother to fix you!"

In Mai Xiaobo's heart, Tao Ye is a well-educated person who hides in the city.Therefore, after hearing Tao Ye's words, Mai Xiaobo felt very ashamed:

"Brother, I'm sorry! I didn't know that you would lose your power when you were hungry."

Mai Xiaobo is not a good person by nature. Apart from being a filial son and being more loyal, he basically has no character advantages.After listening to Tao Ye's words, he could only draw such a conclusion.

Tao Ye glared at Mai Xiaobo bitterly, and muttered:

"Haha, I'm full."

Thinking that he had been out for a long time, if he didn't go back Lu Yi would definitely come out to look for him, so Tao Ye put on his coat and left Mai Xiaobo's house, leaving Mai Xiaobo alone to taste the cold food.

By the time we got back to the 99th floor, most of the lights in the apartment had gone out.

Are you all asleep?While muttering to himself, Tao Ye tiptoedly changed his shoes and walked into the living room softly.

Lu Yi's penthouse apartment has a huge terrace just beside the living room.When Tao Ye passed by the window, he saw Lu Yi leaning against the railing of the balcony, holding a cigarette in his hand.

"Why don't you sleep?"

Tao Ye pushed open the glass door of the terrace and asked Lu Yi from a distance.

Hearing Tao Ye's voice, Lu Yi turned his head, looked at Tao Ye for a long time, and threw the cigarette in his hand into a trash can filled with water.

"waiting for you."

In Tao Ye's impression, Lu Yi did not smoke.

As the saying goes, if something goes wrong, there must be a demon.

Lu Yi, a non-smoker, started smoking. It must be because Tao Ye slipped out of the house without making a sound and hasn't replied to his message yet.

Walking to Lu Yi, Tao Ye raised his head and looked at Lu Yi: "I'm sorry."

Lu Yi froze for a moment, then smiled: "Why do you apologize?"

Snow has stopped.

The rose-colored snow clouds in the sky were pushed away by a gust of cold air, revealing the true color of the dark blue sky.

In the clear night wind, the stars in the sky seemed to be blown, flickering, crumbling.

Tao Ye took a breath of cool air, feeling a bit cold on his shoulders, so he raised his hand to touch his arm, and said:

"No reason. Worrying you."

Looking at Tao Ye's red nose and chin from the cold, Lu Yi's heart trembled.He took off the wool blanket he was wearing and put it on Tao Ye's shoulders.

Seeing Tao Ye come back, Lu Yi's depressed mood disappeared in an instant.

"Go in." Lu Yi suggested, fearing that Tao Ye would freeze.

Tao Ye shook his head, his eyes went out from the railing, and fell on the bustling night scene of the city.

"I want to stay here for a while."

Lu Yi nodded, didn't say anything, just quietly stayed by Tao Ye's side.

After a long time, Tao Ye felt that his fingers were going to be frozen. He stretched out his hands in front of his face, took a breath of hot air on his hands, and rubbed his palms again.

He looked at Lu Yi out of the corner of his eye. In an environment several degrees below zero, Lu Yi was only wearing a thin old cashmere sweater on his upper body.

"Is it appropriate for a god to be with a god?"

Of course Lu Yi knew why Tao Ye asked such a question, he could hear the jealousy in Tao Ye's tone, unwillingness and something else.

"No."

Lu Yi nodded slightly, looked at Tao Ye's eyelashes trembling in the cold wind, and answered firmly.

"We are here, can the God of Law see it?" Tao Ye raised his eyelids, looking at the boundless sea of ​​stars.

"I can't see it. Although the God of Law is omnipotent to a certain extent, he, like human beings, cannot be omniscient." Lu Yi replied with a soft sigh in his heart.

"That's not exciting."

Tao Ye felt a little regretful, turned his back, leaned on the railing, and scanned Lu Yi's balcony.

Lu Yi is a person who advocates simplicity. There are no decorations on the terrace, only a garden table and a few chairs.

"It's a pity not to plant something on such a large terrace." Looking at the bare gray terrace, the racial DNA in Tao Ye's bones moved.

As soon as the words were spoken, Tao Ye suddenly remembered Lu Yi's residence in the ghost world.

Such a house with luxuriant flowers and plants does not fit Lu Yi's personality.Now this open-air and large terrace seems to be the style Lu Yi would choose.

Thinking of this, Tao Ye felt a little blocked.The painting hanging in Lu Yi's living room and the boy in red appeared in front of his eyes.

Maybe... Lu Yi planted so many flowers in the yard because of that boy.

Lu Yi didn't know the little theater in Tao Ye's heart at the moment.

"If you like flowers, I can plant some here." The straight man Lu Yi said seriously.

Tao Ye shook his head and said, "I don't like flowers."

"Then...a la carte?" Lu Yi paused, and proposed a second plan.

Seeing that Tao Ye hadn't spoken for a long time, Lu Yi thought that Tao Ye didn't want to grow vegetables either, so he proposed a third plan:

"It's okay to plant trees."

Tao Ye narrowed his eyes, pulled the blanket off his body, stuffed it into Lu Yi's arms, and entered the room without saying a word.
