C21 The Meaning of a Cockroach

Mi Cai and I walked over to welcome Mr. Justice. I asked, "Mr. Justice, why didn't you call me when you came? The temperature dropped drastically at night. How cold are you sitting here?"

"I called. You turned off your phone." Mr. Justice's reply was as stiff as ever, without a trace of emotion.

After Mr. Justice said that, I remembered that my phone had been thrown into the moat by me while I was drunk. I couldn't help but feel pain in my heart. I didn't make much money, and I only did squandering.

Mi Cai greeted Mr. Justice. "Uncle, good!"

"You're good too. You haven't eaten yet, right? I bought some vegetables at the supermarket to cook for you." Mr. Justice said as he took out a convenient bag from behind him. There were fish and some vegetables in it.

"Uncle, the porridge you made last time was very delicious. The cooking must also be very delicious." Mi Cai said to Mr. Justice with a smile that she had never seen before. This made me realize. I am indeed a person who is not likable, and not Mi Cai with a high attitude.

Mr. Justice only smiled at Mi Cai's praise and then gestured for us to go upstairs.

When we were going upstairs, Mi Cai was walking in front. Mr. Justice and I were behind her. I asked Mr. Justice in surprise, "Mr. Justice, have you been staying in Suzhou for the past few days?"

"I went to Guangzhou to attend another exhibition. When I came back, I passed by Suzhou." Mr. Justice's reply was as concise as before.

I think it is true. It is almost winter. It is the state-owned enterprise where Mr. Justice has the most orders for heating equipment. Mr. Justice has to go to many places to buy raw materials at this time of year.

When he returned to his room, Mr. Justice went straight into the kitchen and started to work. Mi Cai wanted to go to the kitchen to help Mr. Justice, but was rejected by Mr. Justice. After that, I went back to my room and did not know what I was busy with, while I sat in the living room in a daze. My heart was still filled with bitterness. I knew this bitterness would accompany me for a long time. Until the day I completely forgot about Jian Wei.

After a short moment, Mi Cai walked out of the room and changed into a house uniform. This made her look much more friendly, but she was still beautiful, as if beauty was something in her bone marrow. No matter how she dressed, she would be beautiful.

"Sit like a statue! Can't you go to the kitchen to help your dad?" Mi Cai seems to be dissatisfied that when Mr. Justice is busy, I have nothing to do.

"You don't understand. He likes to cook alone."

"Is there such a thing?"

"Because he treats cooking as fun, and other people helping him is stealing his fun."

"Oh, then the food he makes should be very delicious, right?"

"You're not a foodie, so why ask so many questions?"

"Only foodies can ask? Everyone has the right to be curious." Mi Cai once again opposed me with dissatisfaction.

"Won't you know later? It won't take long."

Mi Cai didn't pursue the matter further. She turned around and returned to her room. She then carried a dirty basket basket and walked towards the bathroom. I was a little surprised. So it turns out that the goddess also wants to wash her clothes.

The sound of water flowing came from the bathroom. Then, the washing machine started to roll. Hearing the rhythmic rolling sound, I became even more absent-minded. I couldn't even feel my own existence for a moment.

A scream came from the bathroom. Naturally, it was Mi Cai's voice. The huge decibel woke me up from my trance. Mr. Justice had already run to the bathroom with a big spoon before me. Then, I ran over too.

Even though Mr. Justice and I had created a huge formation, the wolf could still be beaten to death. At this moment, Mi Cai was only confronting a cockroach that was lying on the bathtub. The cockroach shook its tentacles fearlessly. Mi Cai's face has already turned pale. This is obviously an unfair contest. The funny thing was that the one who was at the disadvantage was actually a living person.

Mi Cai saw that I had come and instinctively retreated behind me. It was exactly the same as the scene in the melodramatic Korean dramas in the 9th increment. Because of this, I also got a chance to be a hero and save the damsel in distress, even though my opponent was just a cockroach.

I walked to the side of the bathtub and picked up the cockroach with its tentacles. The cockroach's emotions were very unstable. After a violent struggle, Mi Cai screamed again. I found it funny. Every time she choked me until I wanted to vomit blood, a cockroach lying in an ambush in a dark corner could scare her to death. This is the difference between one thing and the other.

I picked up the cockroach and said to Mr. Justice, "Add another dish. I haven't eaten meat for a long time. Do you want to stir-fry it or steam it?"

Mi Cai felt disgusted.

Mr. Justice seemed to be very protective of Mi Cai. His face darkened and he said, "Stop messing around. Hurry up and throw it away."

I carried the cockroach and smiled disdainfully at Mi Cai. Then, I threw the cockroach out of the window. Then, I sighed and said, "Sigh! If I didn't fall to the ground and die, I would have become a homeless, disabled cockroach who can't take care of himself. I might as well die from the fall! "

Mi Cai naturally knew that I was using cockroaches to hurt her. She always chased me out, but she still didn't recover from the cockroach incident. However, her expression was filled with fear and silence, so I suddenly had a childish and somewhat funny idea. If the rich were as afraid of cockroaches as Mi Cai, I would take a bag of cockroaches and extort money from them. I would be able to easily make a fortune.

After the emergency ended, Mr. Justice went to the kitchen to get busy, but Mi Cai did not allow me to leave the bathroom. She asked me to accompany her to wash her clothes, afraid that a cockroach would jump out from another corner. It could also be a group. In short, it must be the family members of that cockroach.

After a moment of washing, Mi Cai took out her clothes from the roller. I sat on the bathtub and looked at her.

After a moment of silence, I said to her, "I have to move out tomorrow."

"I know."

"[You should be quite lonely by yourself, right?]"

"Why should I be lonely?"

I pretended to be very disappointed and said, "Yeah, why would you be lonely? There are cockroaches, A, B, C and D here to accompany you. When I have nothing to do, I will play hide-and-seek with you. It is very lively!"

Mi Cai was stunned and then looked at me angrily. I calmly said, "Hurry up and dry your clothes. We are going to eat later."

...

At the dining table, Mr. Justice, Mi Cai, and I sat on one side. Mr. Justice, who had always been stiff, surprisingly took the initiative to ask Mi Cai, "Is the food suitable for you, miss?"

Mi Cai nodded and replied, "The food Uncle makes is very delicious!"

I know that this is definitely not a compliment. Mr. Justice's food is really very good, especially the sweet and sour fish. It can be said to be the best. Mi Cai, on the other hand, is also very knowledgeable. She picks all the sweet and sour fish to eat.

After Mi Cai's praise, Mr. Justice nods his head and smiles. Then he looks at me as if to tell me, "Son, your father can only help you here. The rest is up to you!"

I am willing to misinterpret the meaning in Mr. Justice's eyes because Mi Cai and I will not be able to develop into a couple. Firstly, she was extremely annoyed with me. Secondly, I have yet to walk out of the shadows of Jian Wei and Xiang Chen. Thirdly, I have yet to walk out of the shadows of Jian Wei and Xiang Chen. Most importantly, I am not worthy of her. Who has ever seen a beautiful girl driving a luxury car fall in love with an unreliable scum?

It is not a wonderful arrangement for us to meet. It is just that the heavens want me to understand how big the gap between us is, and then let me die in shame. What a f * cking immoral heavens!

As my thoughts ran wild, Mr. Justice said to me, "Zhao Yang, fix the pipe after dinner. There's a little leakage at the port. If the weather gets colder, the pipe might explode."

"Got it." I replied.

Mr. Justice nodded. After a while, he said to me, "Next time I come back home, I will bring more rice and flour. Those who get off work will go home early to cook. Eating outside is wasteful and unhygienic." After saying that, he added, "The two of you live together. You have to take care of the girl more. You can also cook, usually do more work "

According to the agreement between Mi Cai and I, I have to move out tomorrow. Mr. Justice even used his imagination to forcefully tie Mi Cai and I together in the future. I was a little helpless, but I couldn't say anything. For example, I told him about moving out. He would most likely be disappointed.

I nodded again and looked at Mi Cai. Her expression didn't change much. She just focused on eating.

Finally, Mr. Justice's attention shifted from me to Mi Cai. He asked Mi Cai, "Miss, our Zhao Yang did not cause you any trouble living with you, right?"

I was afraid that Mi Cai would expose my various crimes, so I kicked her under the table, motioning for her to not speak nonsense. However, I did not expect her to take advantage of the situation and step heavily on my toes. It hurt so much that I almost threw away the chopsticks in my hands.

"Uncle, he's pretty good. He just likes to smoke in the house. He won't change even if I tell him." Mi Cai first praised him, then degraded him to expose my crimes to Mr. Justice.

Mr. Justice looked at me with a dark face. I pretended not to see it, but Mr. Justice's eyes were still sharp. He looked at me relentlessly. Mi Cai, on the other hand, looked like she was taking pleasure in Mr. Justice's misfortune.

"Change, I change." I compromised helplessly, but I felt that this compromise was meaningless. Mi Cai was also very bored. I will move out immediately. Is it worth competing if I am not smoking in the house?

After this small interlude, Mr. Justice seemed to be in a good mood. He asked me to go to the kitchen and bring the glutinous rice wine that he brought last time. I poured a cup for Mr. Justice and asked Mi Cai, "Do you want some?"

Mi Cai handed the empty cup in front of her to the front and said, "Drink a little."

I poured a little for Mi Cai, and I also poured a little for myself. Thus, the three of them surrounded a small table and ate a family dinner on this night of lights.

Don't misunderstand, the family atmosphere I speak of is no different from dining outside. Because Mi Cai and we are not from the same family. I'm afraid that after I move out, it will be hard to meet her in this huge city!
