Chapter 373 Chapter 373
Lu Cishu said this in an uncertain tone - after so many years of self-policing, the self-confidence that he had before entering the society that he was the best in the world was gone.
Even though the person in front of him had turned into a ghost and even washed his clothes and cooked for him to prove that he really loved him, as long as he remembered how he had treated him in the past and his current situation, as well as his not-so-good qualities that Chen had seen before -
Lu Cishu subconsciously used this tone to speak to Chen Shiqing.
However, the nervousness in his tone was not heard by the "person" in front of him - it was very obvious that the person in front of him was stunned for a moment by the excitement and excitement caused by his saying this.
Chen Shiqing didn't expect Lu Cishu to say this to him - in fact, he originally thought that what was waiting for him was a more serious humiliation, and when he admitted that he still liked Lu Cishu, he also confirmed that he could bear no matter what Lu Cishu said -
After all, when I was young and frivolous, when he was rejected by me casually, he was just disappointed and sad instead of being angry, giving up and no longer liking me. Now that he has a younger temper, his reaction to hearing these words may be less intense.
however--
Chen Shiqing never expected that Lu Cishu would say this to him.
After moving his lips, Chen Shiqing realized that because of his strong emotions, no matter how he opened his mouth, the sound he made was very small. He simply closed his mouth and spoke to Lu Cishu in his mind:
"Why? Aren't you...aren't you scared when you see me like this?"
Chen Shiqing was particularly hesitant when asking this question - because he was afraid that after he asked this question, Lu Cishu, who had not thought about his appearance at first, would immediately remember his current appearance and then regret it.
But if he didn't ask, he really wanted to know. Now that the words had been said, there was no room for regret. Chen Shiqing lowered his head and floated to the side, staring at Lu Cishu's feet.
Lu Cishu didn't know he was looking at him - he only knew that he lowered his head and he couldn't see the expression on his face, so he had no way of guessing what Chen Shiqing was thinking. He said slowly:
"Actually... have you ever looked in the mirror yet?"
Chen Shiqing didn't know why Lu Cishu asked him this question, and shook his head in confusion. Then Lu Cishu looked at him and said:
"Then you can go look in the mirror now. Actually, you are... except for the strange color of your lips, there is nothing strange about you. And... you are a nice person. I... only think your face is acceptable." The current meaning is -
Even if I like you now, it is actually a very normal thing.
Lu Cishu lowered his eyes, fearing that Chen Shiqing might not understand the underlying meaning of his words.
And Chen Shiqing really didn't seem to understand the implication of his words - he didn't say anything else.
As for Lu Cishu - after Lu Cishu said that but Chen Shiqing did not immediately "climb up the pole", Lu Cishu himself remained silent - he is currently unable to pursue Chen Shiqing relentlessly.
However, even if they spoke now, they could be considered to have had a heart-to-heart talk - although Chen Shiqing did not understand his hint, their relationship had returned to normal - Chen Shiqing would continue to cook for Lu Cishu, do his laundry, and help him clean.
The difference is that he used to just do things silently, but now he talks to Lu Cishu, and Lu Cishu is not really cold-hearted. He also talks to Chen Shiqing and occasionally asks him on a whim:
"Do you want to eat? I'll burn two incense sticks for you."
Chen Shiqing: "..." Although this was a good intention, Chen Shiqing still politely declined.
Since Chen Shiqing said so, Lu Cishu naturally wouldn't insist - they returned to their old way of getting along -
In fact, there are some slight differences. For example, Lu Cishu is not so fierce anymore, and he is no longer likely to have a "heart-to-heart talk" with others. He rarely acts like a serious person and brings vegetables home immediately after get off work every day.
However, even though he took the food home “immediately” after get off work, Lu Cishu still came home after eight o’clock. After a few days of this, Chen Shiqing couldn’t help it:
"What is your job? Why do you get off work so late? Why don't you quit? I have a house in District C. It's mine. You can live wherever you want. I also have savings that my parents haven't taken. You can use them as you like."
Lu Cishu had thought about being a gigolo - but he had never thought about being a gigolo. He shook his head frantically:
"No, no, what if your parents find out?"
Chen Shiqing: "If you know, you know. I will tell them." He looked at Lu Cishu, drooped his eyelashes and continued to pick vegetables [After talking to Lu Cishu, he will be visible in everything he does]:
"Didn't I separate from you for a while before? At that time, I went home to see my parents."
Most people would be afraid when seeing a ghost - but parents who have lost their beloved son and then meet his soul body will not be afraid - they may even be very happy.
"So my parents won't say anything if you go to live in my house. They know it was me who asked you to go."
Lu Cishu didn't say anything for a while. Then he slowly moved to the front and said slowly while picking vegetables:
"Is it really okay~"
He acted like a spoiled child. Chen Shiqing's heart itched when he heard his words. He couldn't help but reach out and touch Lu Cishu's cheek, saying with a smile:
"Of course you can. Why not?"
After doing all this, Chen Shiqing was stunned for a moment. He was about to tell Lu Cishu that he didn't mean it, but he saw that Lu Cishu looked normal and didn't look uncomfortable at all. So he put the idea of apologizing deep in his heart.
Then he heard Lu Cishu say: "Am I a gigolo?"
Chen Shiqing didn't say anything.
Lu Cishu said to himself: "It's not good for me to just do nothing and live off others."
Chen Shiqing thought that he didn't want this, and was about to say, "If you don't use these, no one will use them when the time comes," but then he heard Lu Cishu say:
"How about I give it to you?"
"!!!" Chen Shiqing was stunned for a moment, but the reward Lu Cishu gave him was something he could not refuse, so he could only hesitate and not say anything.
Then Lu Cishu looked at him and asked him: "You don't want to? Well... it shouldn't hurt for a ghost to sleep with me, right?"
This time, Chen Shiqing answered quickly: "No!" Really. There were no ghosts in their world, and non-existent things were naturally harmless - although Chen Shiqing didn't know why they existed, as long as he didn't have bad intentions to do anything, he wouldn't hurt them at all.
Lu Cishu didn't know how Chen Shiqing could convince him that he really wouldn't do anything bad to him, so he just said "oh" casually and said:
"No harm. Then..." Lu Cishu looked at Chen Shiqing:
"Since it's like this, let's give it a try?"
