I was approached by a cat-eared girl.

Do ghosts really exist in this world?

Everyone has probably thought about this issue, and most people have reached a rather rogue conclusion.

I would rather trust it to have it than to trust it to have nothing.

Six months ago, Chen Shuo was definitely a staunch atheist, but now...

He felt that it definitely existed, after all, there are demons in this world, so the existence of a ghost doesn't seem like anything strange, it's quite reasonable.

Thinking about it this way instantly lessened my fear of death.

For dinner, we had tomato and egg noodles. Bai Xiaoqi's cooking skills have become quite proficient.

She has a particularly good grasp of sweet flavors.

After the meal, Chen Shuo took the dishes to the kitchen to wash them as usual. He now had a firm grasp on the task of washing dishes.

When he finished washing the dishes and came out, Bai Xiaoqi was throwing clothes into the washing machine to wash them.

It's been raining for the past few days, and the two of them have accumulated quite a few clothes. Now that the weather is finally clear, they need to wash them quickly.

Chen Shuo walked over and glanced into the washing machine, then reached in and rummaged through the clothes inside. He sighed, then walked into the bedroom under Bai Xiaoqi's bewildered gaze.

After a while, he came out carrying several sets of clothes, all of them were thin summer pajamas, several short-sleeved shirts and shorts, and several nightgowns.

"Wash our pajamas too. It's getting warmer, and we should wear these to bed at night."

Chen Shuo threw all the clothes he was holding into the washing machine.

Bai Xiaoqi silently took out the nightgowns.

Chen Shuo threw it again, and she picked it up again. After several times, Chen Shuo said, "The highest temperature today is already 28 degrees Celsius, and it will only get higher and higher. It will be very hot to sleep in long pants and long-sleeved pajamas at night."

"I'm not afraid of the heat."

"Then why do you kick off the covers at night?"

"..."

Bai Xiaoqi was silent for a moment, then took a step back and said, "I can wear your pajamas."

"Short-sleeved shirt and shorts?"

“It needs to have an elastic band,” she added.

"Elastic waistbands are unnecessary, and so are short-sleeved shirts and shorts."

"..."

Bai Xiaoqi fell silent again, then took out her phone from her pocket. "I can buy it myself."

"Go ahead and buy it, it's all unnecessary for you anyway."

As he spoke, Chen Shuo took the opportunity to throw the nightgowns in and then quickly poured in laundry detergent.

Bai Xiaoqi didn't stop her. The pajamas would be back in three days at most, and the nightgown would have to wait until tomorrow to dry. All in all, she would only have two days to sleep in the nightgown.

She didn't believe that in just two days, this guy could cross her bottom line and make her have a child.

And you can also choose not to wear it.

After handing over the task of filling the washing machine with water to Chen Shuo, Bai Xiaoqi sat on the sofa in her slippers and continued picking out clothes. She cleverly chose two sets of cotton pajamas with short sleeves and shorts to alternate wearing.

After thinking it over, he bought another set to deal with special circumstances. Just as he was about to place the order, Chen Shuo came over.

"The pajamas you picked out won't do. They're pure cotton and not breathable. The nightgowns I bought for you are all made of ice silk, which are very cool to wear."

Bai Xiaoqi recalled that it was indeed true; it was very cool to sleep in a nightgown last summer.

Then she exited the order page and started searching for ice silk pajamas. After browsing around and looking at the prices, she hesitated and said, "Ice silk is more expensive. I think I shouldn't buy it. I'll just buy pure cotton."

Want to save money?

"Ah."

"Wouldn't it be more economical if you didn't buy pajamas?"

“…”

Bai Xiaoqi was speechless. It seemed so, but her purpose in buying pajamas was simply because she didn't want to wear a nightgown.

It's fine during the day, but when it's time to sleep at night, this guy's paws become extremely restless.

If she's wearing a nightgown, he can simply lift it up...

Even though I was wearing a pair of underwear underneath, those tiny little panties really didn't make me feel safe.

But actually, pajamas are pretty much the same. Now I don't tie my pajama pants in a knot at night anymore, because I can't untie them in the morning.

He would tie it a little tighter each night when he slept, but he could untie it by pinching one of the ropes and pulling it gently. Then he could pull his pants down and it would be the same.

Thinking about it this way, buying pajamas for myself seems a bit like deceiving myself.

Moreover, although this guy was physically aggressive, he never untied his pants, let alone pulled them down.

Maybe I don't need to buy pajamas anymore?

Bai Xiaoqi was caught in a dilemma. She looked at her phone screen, exited Taobao, and put her phone in her pocket.

"Not buying it?" Chen Shuo asked.

"Hmm, I don't think it's necessary to buy it."

“Yes, there’s no need to buy it.” Chen Shuo was pleased. “You’ve finally realized I’m a decent person…”

He couldn't continue. He used to be considered a gentleman, but now he felt as if he had been expelled from the ranks of gentlemen.

After all, they were holding her little feet...

Thinking of this, Chen Shuo's gaze unconsciously drifted to her little feet resting on the edge of the coffee table. Bai Xiaoqi clearly noticed his gaze.

Chen Shuo almost fell off the sofa and quickly looked away, saying, "No, no."

"But last time you..."

"cough..."

Chen Shuo coughed to interrupt her, "Last time was last time. This time I just took a quick look and didn't intend to do anything."

Bai Xiaoqi hesitated for a moment, looked at her feet, bit her lip, and asked softly, "Because I'm not wearing stockings?"

"No."

That is...

"Okay, stop asking."

“…”

Chen Shuo fell silent. Some things are truly beyond our control. Besides, it's just helping out; it's no big deal.

Yes, it's nothing serious, it's normal between couples.

He tried to convince himself.

Moreover, it was Xiao A Miao who brought it up that night. I initially wanted to refuse, but then I felt that refusing her kindness made me agree.

However, I misinterpreted her meaning, changing "hands" to "feet".

That's right, that's how it happened, and it matches the objective facts.

"I didn't! You're lying!"

"Oh..."

The two remained silent, the clock on the wall ticking away. Bai Xiaoqi hung her head and didn't say a word. After a long while, she explained in a very soft voice, "I... I did that because I like you."

"Yes, yes, it's because I like you too. We like each other, and this kind of thing happens when you like someone to a certain extent. It's the same when you help me. Anyway, we're both normal."

Chen Shuo nodded hurriedly, then paused and added, "If you need it, I can help you too."

Bai Xiaoqi was both embarrassed and angry. "I don't need it!"

"Everyone has needs, that's normal. You don't need to be shy, and I'm willing to help..."

"Shut up! If you say another word, I'll kick you."

“...……”

Chen Shuo immediately shut up. He sensed the threat; this kick was no joke and could be fatal.

Bai Xiaoqi glared at him, getting angrier the more she thought about it. Suddenly, she pounced on Chen Shuo and knocked him down on the sofa, biting him hard on the face.

"hiss..."

Hearing Chen Shuo gasp for breath, she finally felt better, then huffed and let him go, getting up and heading towards the bathroom.

"I'm going to take a shower."

Chapter 131 You're Not Afraid

Every night, Chen Shuo would huff and puff through a workout, followed by a relaxing hot shower—this had become an unwavering daily routine.

It seems that she has unknowingly shed the label of being in poor health, at least she has never been told that she is in poor health again.

It seems that exercise is very effective; it can not only improve physical health but also save a man's dignity.

When Chen Shuo finished showering and came out of the bathroom, Bai Xiaoqi was curled up on the sofa playing games.

Their eyes met, and she raised her chin at Chen Shuo and snorted, then turned her head back, not intending to pay any attention to this guy.

I've been playing the game for so long and I'm almost done with it. At the beginning, I relied on type advantage and had to catch the corresponding Pokémon every time I encountered a gym.

But later she developed her own understanding of the game and stopped chasing new ones. Her backpack always contained the same combination of five Pikachu and a green-haired gorilla. If she couldn't beat someone, she would level up and crush them with her level.

Chen Shuo quickly dried his hair, then casually sat down on the sofa. He leaned over to look at the handheld console screen, then at her, and asked, "Are you still angry?"

"Yes, just a little bit more."

"How much is 'a little'?" Chen Shuo asked.

"so much..."

Bai Xiaoqi stretched out her hand, using her thumb and forefinger to indicate a distance. After thinking for a moment, she widened the distance further, puffing out her cheeks as she said, "This much."

Seeing her like this, Chen Shuo couldn't help but laugh. "It's just a little, not much."
