Room 602 next door.
Ji Huanping woke up from bed right on time. These past two days, he would wake up at this time every day, not because of any noise from apartment 601 next door, but because he was suddenly wide awake.
When Ji Huanping came out of the room, he saw Bai Zhiqi standing motionless against the wall connecting to room 601 next door in the dark living room. The television next to her was silently flashing static.
"What are you looking at, Aki?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhiqi slowly turned her clumsy head to look at Ji Huanping, then suddenly smiled and said in a ghostly voice, "Looking at that handsome boy next door, his husband is keeping a close eye on him."
Aqi does look quite like a ghost... no wonder Su Anle said that.
Ji Huanping calmed his racing heart. "Aqi, there's no need to recreate the character in the middle of the night. Anle will scream in fright if she sees it."
"Okay," Bai Zhiqi said, tiptoeing silently back to the sofa and sitting down.
He asked, "What's the date today?"
Ji Huanping yawned and walked to the incense table in the living room, which had no offerings. "It should be the 26th."
Bai Zhiqi quietly stared at Ji Huanping, who was burning incense with his back to him. "Time really flies."
"Go to sleep early. Didn't you say you wanted to go to Nieyin Mountain to film tomorrow?" Ji Huanping said, lighting a few incense sticks and inserting them into the incense burner. After finishing the action, he suddenly paused, forgetting why he had burned incense in the first place.
It seems like they've been burning incense every night for the past few days.
Speaking of this incense burner... when did it come into existence?
"Aqi, do you remember..." Ji Huanping was turning his head to ask when he found that Bai Zhiqi, who had just been on the sofa, was gone and the living room was empty.
"Did they go back to sleep so soon? I didn't hear a sound..."
He turned around, looking at the incense stick that had almost completely burned out in just a few seconds, seemingly oblivious to the problem, muttering to himself, "Why was there an incense stand here in the first place...?"
It seems like it's what Aki wanted...
……
At three in the morning, Zhou Gangxun finally relented, took a short shower, and went to sleep.
After a while, Ruan Zhijuan, who was on the other half of the bed, got up. Very well, now it's the good boy's turn to take revenge.
He pretended to turn over accidentally and kicked Zhou Gangxun, who did not wake up.
Then Ruan Zhijuan ran quietly to the living room desk to get her sticker box, and then ran back to the bedroom, crawled to Zhou Gangxun's side, and stuck the ugly stickers that had nowhere else to be pasted on Zhou Gangxun's face, neck and arms.
Hmph, that's the kind of treatment that old bastard gets.
Ruan Zhijuan's gaze fell on Zhou Gangxun's brow bone. The bandage had been removed, and a scab was forming there. New flesh should grow back soon.
Ruan Zhijuan was well aware of this, but she didn't know if it would leave a scar. She would remember to tell Zhou Gangxun that even with a scar, he would still look good and wouldn't become ugly.
After all, Zhou Gangxun is so poor that all he has left is his face. If it gets damaged, he might cry.
Ruan Zhijuan thought for a moment, then took another one she liked and stuck it to an empty spot on Zhou Gangxun's neck.
Considering he has to go out to earn money to support his family tomorrow, let's reward him with a pretty little bunny head.
After Ruan Zhijuan finished her work, she lay down and pretended to turn over, kicking Zhou Gangxun again and again in the same spot.
Hmph, goodnight, you dog of a man.
……
Around 5 a.m., Zhou Gangxun woke up after sleeping for about two hours and saw out of the corner of his eye that his body was covered in colorful stickers. He didn't know when his body had been covered in stickers.
He looked at Ruan Zhijuan sleeping on the other side of the bed and said in Cantonese, "Oh, looks like it was done by that stupid rat again."
It's a little itchy.
Zhou Gangxun tore the paper as he went to the bathroom to wash up.
When I wiped my face, I realized that the skin on my body that had just been stuck with sticker adhesive was covered in red marks.
Zhou Gangxun frowned; he was allergic to these mass-produced, cheap gadgets.
It looks a lot like a hickey.
Zhou Gangxun checked himself and found that his allergy was not severe; he only had slight redness on his skin.
It's here on my waist... there's a bruise, like a rabbit kicked it.
He tidied up, made lunch for Ruan Zhijuan, and then went out to the bus station.
Around six o'clock, he stood at the door of the chartered bus, smoking and waiting for people to gather.
"Good morning, Xun-ge." "Xun-ge, are all these things on you your wives...?"
Zhou Gangxun was wearing a sleeveless shirt, and the arriving workers inevitably saw the red marks on his body.
Zhou Gangxun's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he gave a barely audible "hmm".
Someone else noticed, "Brother Xun, what's that sticker on your neck? A rabbit..."
Zhou Gangxun's gaze shifted slightly, and he spotted Zhang Xiaolei among the group of people. He said vaguely, "I made him angry last night, and my wife posted these random things."
"Don't tear it off, or he'll get angry. This is his favorite sticker."
As Zhang Xiaolei was getting on the bus, he suddenly felt something inside him shatter into pieces. "It's good that it's stuck on, it's good that it's not taken off... Waaaaah... Brother Xun, you and Brother Xun's wife have such a good relationship... Waaaaah... So good..."
"Brother Xun, we've never done that villa project you mentioned before. Is it feasible? Won't it cause you trouble?" Li Siguang said, handing Zhou Gangxun a steamed bun made by his wife from the bag.
"I've eaten it." Zhou Gangxun said slowly, exhaling smoke. "It doesn't matter. It's the same thing, and they can't find anyone else to make it for a while."
I remembered that Xiao Ma had mentioned that he had a villa business, so Zhou Gangxun went there the day before yesterday. He happened to meet a couple hesitating at their sales office because the villa they liked didn't have a swimming pool or a courtyard.
He talked to him for a few minutes, and the project was finalized.
Other factory and residential buildings take at least three to four months to construct, but this project only takes about thirty to forty-five days. Excluding labor and material costs, the net profit is about forty to fifty thousand yuan.
When Zhou Gangxun renovated several of his previous villas, he had demolished the swimming pools and private courtyards, so he knew what the interior structures were like. The day before yesterday, he checked some information and even reconstructed the design drawings.
It just so happened that the construction site in the west of the city was temporarily shut down due to a death, and there was plenty of manpower available, so Zhou Gangxun called Li Siguang and the others over.
"Everyone's here, driver."
Zhou Gangxun stubbed out his cigarette, got into the car, found a seat, closed his eyes, and leaned back to catch up on sleep.
The bus started and drove onto the winding mountain road leading towards Nieyin Mountain.
After an unknown amount of time, several whispers came from the back row, "Why are there different shapes of kiss marks on Xun-ge's body?"
"It's obvious you don't have a partner. Those kisses are just impulsive; they can't all be the same."
"No, look, there are flower shapes on Xun-ge's clothes, such standard flowers, with five petals..."
Half-asleep, Zhou Gangxun slightly tugged at his lips. Perhaps it was his wife's innate talent that allowed her to create such elaborate kiss marks.
With a deafening roar, a landslide occurred, sweeping up and burying half the mountain without giving anyone a chance to react.
