I drive out ghosts by playing games with the big guy

The phone rang again.

Xu Chucheng picked it up and saw that the first message was from a private detective, and the second message was from Ju Feng.

F: "Did you take a shower, baby? I'm going to have a video conference. If you're sleepy, go to bed first [kiss]."

Xu Chucheng thought that Ju Feng's indifferent silence when he went upstairs was angry, but when he saw the news that he was still intimate, his uneasy heart became soft and messy: "I'm not sleepy, I also want to write a clarification. Brother, please be busy [What?]" Thinking of something, he went downstairs lightly and knocked on Xu Mengmeng's door and asked:

"Sister, where's your coffee machine? Lend me to use it."

"What coffee do you drink at night?" Although Xu Mengmeng complained, she still motioned to Xu Chucheng to come in.

Xu Mengmeng’s room used to have a small balcony facing north, but she later transformed it into a glass leisure room, with a large projection on the white gauze bay window, thick carpeted lazy chairs and overcrowded small bookcases, and a round glass low table. There is an open laptop, steaming coffee, and a basket of hydrangeas next to it.

On the Duobaoge cabinet on the other side is a retro coffee machine, a set of first-class textured gold-painted coffee cups, a few chubby hand-made dolls, and a glowing hot air balloon decoration on one side. There is also a bouquet of dried flowers handmade during the New Year. Under the soft lighting, the whole space really reveals a sense of leisure and relaxation.

Xu Mengmeng grabbed the pillow and sat back in front of the computer again, "I've finished cooking, you can look in the cupboard to see what kind of beans you want to drink!" She picked up the last cup of coffee she just poured out , took a sip gracefully, and signaled Xu Chucheng to turn over the coffee beans in the first row of the cabinet.

Xu Chucheng took out the Blue Mountain coffee beans, and skillfully manipulated Xu Mengmeng's antique machine, which was only used as a decoration before, and said casually, "Sister, how much impression do you have of my parents?"

Xu Mengmeng glanced at him calmly as if she had expected it long ago, "I like their arrival the most during the New Year and holidays. They give the most New Year's money, and they always bring some gifts that I have never seen before or that are not available in the country. They are very welcoming to others. You are polite and did not look down on our family."

"Our family used to be the poorest in the family. The broken house either leaked air or water. One year, it rained heavily during the Spring Festival, and water leaked everywhere in the house, but they ate a meal without minding it. Afterwards, they even paid for repairs. I stuffed money for my parents, and later their business grew, and they may not appear during the festivals, but the red envelopes and gifts have never been absent."

Thinking of the past, Xu Mengmeng pulled a nostalgic smile on her lips, "When I was young, I always wondered why my parents were dirty, but your parents were bright. When you came to my house for the first time, you were shivering. Said tremblingly that there are ghosts in my house, and every time I curl up in your mother's arms, I don't eat a few bites of food."

"I thought you hated my dilapidated house. When your parents were not paying attention, you would pull your hair and pinch your ass, make you cry and stuff you with maltose. In the eyes of your parents, I am the whole family." Here, the only good girl who is willing to talk to you."

"..." After many years, Xu Chucheng felt that his scalp was a little numb and his butt was a little sore, and the vague memory revealed a clear corner, but there was an unreal sense of emptiness, so he heard Xu Mengmeng say:

"That's why my parents were willing to adopt you back then."
