Ghost World Office

……

As soon as Tao Ye woke up the next day, he found that Lu Yi had sent him a message——

[Come to the balcony to have a look. (Happy smiley face expression)]

Rubbing his sleepy eyes, Tao Ye slowly got out of the warm quilt, went to the bathroom to take a shower, and then left the room.

The heating was fully turned on in the apartment, and it was very warm.

Tao Ye's familiar woody fragrance wafted in the air. He squinted his eyes contentedly, looked around, and found that there seemed to be no one in the apartment.

Lu Yi was not there, and neither was Liao Zhi.

Thinking of the message Lu Yi sent him, Tao Ye began to move towards the living room.

Through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, Tao Ye saw bright colors floating on the balcony.

Under the warm winter sun, a whole piece of blooming carnations swayed against the cold wind.In Tao Ye's eyes, they are like countless floating colorful balloons.

Facing the sunshine, Tao Ye pushed the door out of the living room, stood on the terrace, and looked down at the newly placed flower garden on the ground, which was full of carnations.

He likes carnations very much.

At least I liked it in my previous life.

"Happy New Year."

While Tao Ye was staring at these carnations, Lu Yi's voice sounded behind him.

Tao Ye looked back at Lu Yi, Lu Yi's face was facing the bright sunlight, the shadow of his eyelashes and forehead hair hit the bridge of his nose, and his whole body exuded a soft breath.

"Let's have fun together." Tao Ye pursed his lips.

The wind after snow in winter is always mixed with a fragrant taste.

This smell is like the smell of a quilt that has just been dried in the summer, like the smell of spring petals wet by rain on the glass window, like the smell coming from the stove roasting sweet potatoes on the street in autumn.

They are all alike.

The smell is aromatic because it is somewhat tainted with aromatic memories.

Those memories are deeply buried in Tao Ye's heart, and they only appear in very few moments, overlapping the present with the past.

Tao Ye used to really dislike flowers.

After his mother passed away, Tao Yi's personality changed suddenly, and he began to be unwilling to communicate with others, and he was unwilling to act like a spoiled child to Tao Ye like before.

In the last year that Tao Ye and Tao Yi spent together, Tao Yi gave Tao Ye a carnation on Mother's Day.

In Tao Yi's heart, Tao Ye replaced his mother.

It was also from that day that Tao Ye began to have a special affection for Carnations.

Tao Ye knew that Lu Yi knew his past clearly, but he never thought that Lu Yi would remember such a small thing.

He looked at Lu Yi, and said in a very soft voice:

"Thank you, I like it very much."

In the backlight, Lu Yi saw Tao Ye's hair was blown by the wind, and the ends of his hair were dancing in the air.

In the light amber halo, Lu Yi actually couldn't see Tao Ye's face clearly.

But Lu Yi could feel that Tao Ye was very light at this time, like a cloud floating in the sky.People only feel light when they are happy.

Like the tumbling hair, Lu Yi's heart also moved.

Tao Ye squatted down, put his face close to a bouquet of pink carnations, smelled the scent of the flowers, and carefully twirled the petals with his fingers, asking:

"In such a cold day, they will freeze to death, right?"

"Don't worry, I have watered them with the power of law, and they will always bloom here." In cold weather, it is certainly not Lu Yi's style to put flowers outside casually.

Will it never wither?

Looking at the brightly colored petals under the sun, Tao Ye smiled unconsciously.

Man's pursuit of eternity will never change.

Life is so short.

Even after becoming a soul, Tao Ye also realized the smallness and fragility of an individual.

But isn't the reason why human beings can understand all things because human beings always pursue eternity with their own limitations?

Just at the moment just now, Tao Ye briefly realized that he seemed to own a small part of the eternity of the world.

The smile on Tao Ye's face captured Lu Yi's sanity in an instant, he had never seen such a pure smile on Tao Ye.

Before he came back to his senses, Lu Yi felt a gentle touch on his neck.

After Tao Ye lightly touched Lu Yi's neck with his lips, his face also turned red.

He turned around and walked around among the carnations so that Lu Yi would not see his blush cheeks.

"This is your lucky money."

Tao Ye pretended to look at the flowers, and said to Lu Yi with a smothered breath.

Lu Yi touched the place where Tao Ye's lips touched, and unconsciously bent the corners of his mouth:

"Come in after a while, don't catch a cold. I'll cook."

……

After the first day of the new year, Tao Ye obviously became less awkward.

One reason is that Tao Ye likes the carnations that Lu Yi gave him very much, and the other reason is that Liao Zhi moved out.

Liao Zhi knew that he was a light bulb in Lu Yi's house, but he didn't expect Tao Ye to be so jealous, and he was still jealous.

So Liao Zhi found a random reason and moved to another building in Chengkong Square.

Before the Lantern Festival is still the Spring Festival holiday.But in theory, the work done in the human world does not rest.So just after the first day of the new year, Lu Yi had to go to the office every day to deal with the business affairs that had accumulated recently.

Of course Tao Ye was not idle either.

Shen Zhu's identity is the eldest daughter of an entrepreneur, and the Chinese New Year is a busy time, so most of the work that should have belonged to Shen Zhu fell on Tao Ye.

Tao Ye did the math, and in the seven days after the first day of the new year, he dealt with a total of more than ten supernatural events, and collected seven or eight souls back to the ghost world.

Although the balance on the bank card has increased, Tao Ye still feels that he has been squeezed.

So as soon as Shen Zhu returned to the human world to do the work, Tao Ye handed over the work to Shen Zhu, and ran back to Yi's house to rest.

Tao Ye, who was lying on the bed, received a text message from Zhang Minghe:

[Brother Ye, come online! 】

Tao Ye's eyeballs staring at the phone screen moved. After lying down all afternoon, his back became sore and numb, and he replied:

【Tired, don't want to go. 】

[Come on, come on, four missing one, I'm waiting for you. 】

Zhang Minghe's news immediately followed.

[Four missing one?Who else but you? 】

[I, Qiang Jun, Mai Xiaobo, Jiang Peng. 】

Tao Ye began to waver.

Mai Xiaobo's game skills are not bad, and playing games with Mai Xiaobo is indeed a very enjoyable thing.

It's just, when will Mai Xiaobo turn his back on his evil ways and have such a good relationship with Zhang Minghe...

After a fierce ideological struggle, Tao Ye got up from the bed, put on a down jacket casually, brushed his messy hair and went out the door.

During the Chinese New Year, it was not easy to take a taxi. Tao Ye waited for a long time before hailing a taxi.

After getting in the car, Tao Ye took out his mobile phone and sent Lu Yi a message with his fingers numb from the cold:

[I went to surf the Internet, I will be back later. 】

Lu Yi didn't reply immediately.

Tao Ye didn't pay attention, turned off the phone and threw it on his lap, staring at the thin layer of fog on the car window, and began to feel sleepy.

After arriving at the Internet cafe, Tao Ye found that Mai Xiaobo and the others had arrived, so he swiped his ID card and turned on the phone, and sat down on the seat next to Mai Xiaobo.

"You can order whatever you want to drink, it will be recorded on my computer."

Tao Ye was in a good mood, and generously charged 1000 yuan to his machine.

The Internet cafe they came to is called Maya Internet Cafe, which is one of the most high-end Internet cafes in S City, so the consumption is not low.

If it wasn't for Chinese New Year, when everyone received red envelopes from relatives, they generally wouldn't come here to surf the Internet.

Zhang Minghe thanked Tao Ye with a smile, ordered milk tea and crispy noodles, and asked the network administrator to deliver a pack of cigarettes.

"Let's do it." Mai Xiaobo roared heroically, and logged into his game account.

The four people present were very excited, eager to enter the canyon to fight.Only Jiang Peng, who was forced by Mai Xiaobo, was restless.

two hours ago.

Jiang Peng was helping his mother make buns at home when he suddenly received a call from Mai Xiaobo.

"Crooked? Come to Maya Internet Cafe immediately."

Jiang Peng tremblingly wanted to evade: "Brother Mai, I'm making buns."

"Don't be silly! Take care of your mother, I'll beat you to death in less than half an hour." Mai Xiaobo never regarded Jiang Peng as a human being. speak out.

After Jiang Peng arrived at Maya Internet Cafe, he realized that he was just making up the numbers.

At some point, his good brother hooked up with Zhang Minghe, who had betrayed him, and even Cheng Qiangjun, who was not ranked among the evil forces in the college before, could call Mai Xiaobo his brother.

Jiang Peng really couldn't figure it out.Obviously he is the younger brother who is loyal to Mai Xiaobo, why is everyone else doing better than him.

People are not old!

Jiang Peng's heart was crying.

"Why are you sitting and waiting to die? Buy some drinks for the three of you."

Mai Xiaobo cast a sidelong glance at Jiang Peng, and ordered him to go shopping in a rough voice.

Jiang Peng didn't dare to disobey, and immediately stood up and walked towards the front desk of the Internet cafe.

"It's a good thing you called Jiang Peng to make up the numbers, otherwise Brother Ye would definitely not come." Zhang Minghe stroked his newly dyed yellow hair and said to Mai Xiaobo.

Mai Xiaobo nodded triumphantly: "Four missing one, and there are blood c players like me, brother Ye can't refuse."

Jiang Peng: Only the world where I was injured has been achieved? ? ?

……

Five college students are fighting fiercely in an Internet cafe, but it sounds like only two people are outputting.

Cheng Qiangjun didn't like to talk when playing games, Zhang Minghe didn't play well and didn't communicate much, and Jiang Pengyu didn't dare to speak out at all.

Tao Ye and Mai Xiaobo not only operate with the keyboard, but also output with their mouths, yelling crazily at each sentence.

Fortunately, the Wuhei box they were in was equipped with soundproofing equipment, otherwise they would definitely be stared at and complained by other players.

Tao Ye was concentrating on playing the game, yelling, and operating the mechanical keyboard with his slender fingers.

"Cheng Qiangjun, what's going on? Are you hatching eggs at home?!"

After a team battle, Tao Ye's side was wiped out by the opponent. Tao Ye glanced at the game interface dissatisfied, and found that Cheng Qiangjun's game character was standing motionless at the spring, and did not come to participate in this round at all. team fight.

The anger was fleeting, and after Tao Ye cursed a few words, he threw himself into the next battle.

Fortunately, Mai Xiaobo's game level is superb, and the wave of mass destruction just now did not affect the situation of the game. Tao Ye and the others finally won the game.

This is the fifth win tonight.

Tao Ye took off the earphones contentedly, rubbed his ears that were not comfortable covered by the earphones, leaned on the back of the gaming chair and let out a sigh of relief:

"Xiao Bo is strong!"

This was the only advantage of Mai Xiaobo in Tao Ye's eyes.

Just when they were about to open again, Jiang Peng's weak voice came from one side:

"Brother Mai, Brother Ye..."

"What's the matter?" Mai Xiaobo glanced impatiently at Jiang Peng who was sitting on the far side.

"Cheng Qiangjun is gone."

Jiang Peng swallowed and whispered.
