Rebirth 08: Equipment God

Chapter 40 Walls have ears

On the other side of the wall, Zhai Da was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, with one hand behind his head.

Speak at a normal speaking volume:

"Or is the wall a spirit? My mother probably forgot that this wall is as thin as paper. I could hear the sound of you turning over clearly."

In the small room next door, Lu Wei's face immediately turned red.

Zhai Da was playing with a metal playing card in his hand. In fact, he was only about ten centimeters away from Lu Wei in a straight line. As long as she spoke in a normal voice, she could hear it clearly. Of course, she couldn't hear soft voices. Naturally, he couldn't hear it because he was studying with headphones.

He had thought of this during the day, but didn't mention it.

In contrast, Yu Xiaoli, who lives in the south-facing master bedroom, won't hear any noise from here, not even the sound of suona playing on the spring bed.

Both sides returned to silence, and the boy and girl lay on their respective beds.

Zhai Da leaned against the wall on the left, and Lu Wei leaned against the wall on the right.

The sound coming from the wall was so clear that Lu Wei felt as if Zhai Da was lying next to her.

Can he hear his breathing? What does his room look like? Will I wake him up if I turn over at night?

Thoughts were racing through my head, and the little sleepiness I had to begin with was now completely disrupted.

Even though she is very tired today.

Until I heard Zhai Da's voice.

"I'll play some music to help you sleep, would you like to listen to it together?"

Lu Wei was confused: "Can I hear it?"

"It's a knockoff phone, it's loud, just put it against the wall."

After a while, melodious music came, a little distorted through the wall, but also more unique.

No one spoke anymore, only singing.

In the darkness, Lu Wei gradually relaxed her whole body and mind for the first time since entering the house.

"Thanks."

The voice is very soft.

"what?"

"Thank you, and thank you, Teacher Yu."

This time, the voice was firm.

But there was no response.

After a long time, the melody became more ethereal and melodious, and Lu Wei whispered:

“What’s the name of this song?”

On the other side of the wall, Zhai Da seemed to be a little slow to react, and spoke after a long time.

He was already squinting with sleepiness just now, because studying is very mentally demanding.

"'Not Worth It', Dreamship."

In the narrow but warm room, the only sounds were the two people's even breathing and the melodious music.

"Besides missing you, besides loving you~"

"Huh~ I'm willing to do anything."

Lu Wei turned over in a daze, facing right, and fell into a deep sleep.

----

A lot of things happened during the short day off.

Lu Wei lost a home, and Zhai Da gained a roommate.

In the morning, Zhai Da turned off the alarm the moment it rang, for fear of waking up Lu Wei who was sitting on the other side of the wall.

He got up earlier than usual today, preparing to complete his washing and drainage work in advance.

Has life become inconvenient? Obviously yes. You never know when you are doing it in the bathroom, the door may be pushed open.

But it can be overcome.

Even if we take a step back, there is a beautiful girl living here. Some things can be written as "inconvenient" or read as "the youthful breath is floating in the air".

Lu Wei is responsible for the green, and he is responsible for the astringent.

Hearing the noise coming from the kitchen, Zhai Da went over to take a look and saw Lu Wei cooking. She had gotten up earlier than him.

The bright morning light shone through the window, and Lu Wei's back was wrapped in a layer of warm light.

She wore a floral apron that Ms. Yu often wore around her waist, but because of the huge difference in waist circumference, the "half-encirclement" apron became a "full-encirclement".

Zhai Da asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"

Lu Wei quickly turned around and said, "I want to make some breakfast for you and Teacher Yu."

“We don’t cook in the morning.”

“It’s okay, I got up early.”

"Because the gas pressure was not high in the morning, the fire could not be started. This is an old problem in old communities."

Lu Wei:.
Holding the kitchen knife, he looked at the beaten egg batter, the shredded potatoes, and the prepared sauce.

Why not put this knife on your own neck?
Zhai Da walked over and took a look. It looked quite realistic. It should be an omelet prepared with shredded potatoes.

At least this girl’s cooking skills are not from scratch, so if she can cook something, it should be delicious.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing.

Zhai Da took out the plastic wrap from the drawer, added an extra spoonful of salt to the egg liquid and sealed it, saying:
"You're not going to take seriously what I said when I was washing my hands yesterday, are you?"

"I know you're afraid of causing trouble and want to do more work, but we just need to pass the basic hygiene and personal privacy issues, and the rest will come slowly. Over time, you will find that as long as you are willing to work, there is no end to the work."

Soak the shredded potatoes in salt water to prevent oxidation, and put them both in the refrigerator.

"It should be fine until the evening, although the taste may be a little worse. Show off your cooking skills at dinner and treat it as an extra dish for us."

Lu Wei could only lower her head: "Okay, I won't waste it!"

At this time, Yu Xiaoli, who usually went out for a walk in the morning, came back. She walked past the kitchen door without looking at them, ignoring the two of them as air.

Zhai Da raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you pretending to ignore us and passing by to create the illusion that we are doing something strange?"

Yu Xiaoli leaned back and showed her head: "What if?"

Zhai Da said seriously: "If anything happens, I will close the door."

Lu Wei:.
Yu Xiaoli really brought breakfast, which was seven meat buns in total, three for Zhai Da, two each for her and Lu Wei, plus a tea egg and soy milk for each of them.

Lu Wei peeled the tea eggs for Zhai Da and Yu Xiaoli. She really seized every small opportunity to do some work in this family.

After breakfast, Lu Wei secretly returned to her room and opened her little notebook before going out.

It said "Breakfast: three pieces".

Further ahead, it was written “Teacher Yu made this dinner herself, it was very sumptuous, costing twenty yuan” and “I borrowed shampoo, soap, bath gel, and a bath towel, costing about thirty yuan”.

This notebook does not record money.

It's love.

But recording it in monetary terms can at least let Lu Wei know to the minimum how much warmth she has gained.

"Xiao Wei, let's go! I'll take you on my bike."

Before I knew it, Teacher Yu’s name had changed.

A lot more intimate.

"Here comes Teacher Yu~"

The familiar corridor, the familiar stairs, but today there are three of them together.

The three of them parted at the gate of Sanmao Community, one went to school and the other two went to work.

Lu Wei sat on the back seat of Yu Xiaoli's bicycle, and the feeling was different from yesterday.

A bit crowded.

Yu Xiaoli looked down at her pinched belly and chose to remain silent.

"Xiao Wei, how did you sleep last night? You didn't get used to it and didn't sleep all night, did you?"

Lu Wei's ponytail was blown up by the wind, and she inexplicably recalled the melody from last night.

The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously: "Yeah! I slept well. Thank you, Teacher Yu."

Unfortunately, her smile always seems to bloom in places where no one can see, and it is a beauty that no one notices.

　Knock knock~
　　are you asleep?
　　Vote and then go to sleep~
