Who says those who retire at the speed of light are not heroes?

"Okay, okay." Lin Cheng nodded, and Xu Wanyue went back to her room to change clothes.

She put on a loose heavyweight T-shirt and jeans, tied her hair into a ponytail, and carried her little dinosaur bag. She went downstairs with Lin Cheng and drove to the vegetable market. The vegetable market was not far away. Lin Cheng walked side by side with her in the vegetable market and bought some vegetables and fruits. Lin Cheng suddenly thought of something, "Do you want to eat braised chicken?"

"Well, I can make it if you want."

"I'll do it and show you how good I am."

"Okay." Xu Wanyue smiled brightly.

So they bought more Qingyuan chicken, and Lin Cheng and Xu Wanyue went home. At noon, he put on an apron and went into the kitchen. He cooked every dish himself. Xu Wanyue didn't have to do anything. She just needed to lie on the sofa and watch TV. She was a little uncomfortable with it, and always walked into the kitchen after a while to check and asked Lin Cheng if there was anything he needed help with, but Lin Cheng just shook his head.

Forty minutes later, the rice was steamed. While eating, Xu Wanyue held the bowl and picked up a small piece of chicken with chopsticks. Her beautiful eyes soon turned into stars.

"Smells so good, what's the secret?!"

"When cooking, I added green peppers and onions to enhance the flavor, and two slices of angelica root."

Xu Wanyue nodded in confusion, "Can you teach me next time?"

"Okay, okay."

After lunch, Xu Wanyue looked back at him and said, "I'm going to go for a walk, do you want to go?"

"OK."

Lin Cheng went downstairs with her. There was a small park not far from her apartment. Although there were no flowers to be seen in summer, the weather was still a little hot.

Summer is indeed not a suitable season for love, but Xu Wanyue suddenly realized that the temperature seemed to be icy cold as long as she was close to Lin Cheng. She blinked at Lin Cheng in confusion.

"I copied Xiaoxiao's ability."

This is truly a humanoid self-propelled air conditioner.

Xu Wanyue hugged his arm and said, "It's so cool."

"Wouldn't it be awkward to walk like this?" Lin Cheng was a little uncomfortable.

"But my sister always hugs me like this when we go shopping."

Xu Wanyue answered with confidence.

Lin Cheng and she walked outside for half an hour. They bought ice cream on the roadside and ate it while walking. Then they walked to a coffee shop, sat down and ordered two cups of cold brew coffee. Xu Wanyue was reading a book while Lin Cheng was staring at her profile in a daze.

The summer outside the window is hot and scorching, and the light falling on people is like clusters of lasers.

Lin Cheng took a sip of the coffee in the cup. It was so bitter.

"Why don't you add milk and sugar?" Xu Wanyue looked at him curiously.

"Not used to it." Lin Cheng shook his head.

..............................

Four p.m.

Lin Cheng and Xu Wanyue went home and reheated the food they hadn't finished at lunch. They had dinner at five o'clock. After dinner, Xu Wanyue and Lin Cheng leaned on the sofa and watched animation for a while. Xu Wanyue started to exercise, and Lin Cheng helped her press her calves and watched her do sit-ups with all her effort.

Half an hour later, Xu Wanyue, whose sportswear was already soaked with sweat, returned to her room to get a change of clothes. Lin Cheng found the perfect opportunity and said, "Then I'm going home, ok?"

"Yeah." Xu Wanyue nodded slightly.

She watched Lin Cheng walk out the door.

..........................................

Come back home.

Lin Cheng was lying on his mat. The air conditioner in the room was on. The cat was licking its fur lazily in the corner. Outside the window was a gorgeous sunset. There was no light in the room, so it was a little dim.

I've been going out too much recently.

The black cat in the corner came over with its elegant cat steps and stood by his cheek, staring at his profile with its heterochromatic eyes. Lin Cheng reached out and grabbed his tail, but it shook its tail impatiently, and the tail broke free from Lin Cheng's hand and hit Lin Cheng in the face.

"You are obviously no longer a human, so why do you still pretend to be human?"

134 Respect

It's obviously magical that cats can talk.

Lin Cheng reached out and twisted its neck, "What does it have to do with you?"

"I'm just curious." The black cat wagged its tail. "Humans are truly amazing. I've never seen a species that can survive by simply deceiving itself."

"Haven't you seen it now?" Lin Cheng reached out and patted the cat's head. "Although you are not a human now, you were also a human in the past. You can learn all the lessons from being a human."

"What's so good about being human?"

"Hey, you don't understand because you are not a human. Why don't you try to be a human?"

The black cat bit its tail disdainfully, and in an instant, the light in Lin Cheng's arms flashed, and the cat in his arms left in an instant, turning into a naked girl with black cat ears and a cat tail lying beside him.

"It's numb, change back quickly." Lin Cheng closed his eyes.

Because the girl transformed by the black cat was too young. Although this guy should be more than a thousand years old, the girl he transformed into only looked like twelve or thirteen years old.

"I'm still a young cat." The black cat said calmly. She crawled on the bed twice with all fours, and turned back into a cat after a moment. She shook her head and said, "It's not fun to be a human."

"Then cats are fun?"

"I've already said that I'm not a cat."

"So what the hell are you?"

"I don't know either, meow."

The black cat licked its paws, "Anyway, it's not a cat. Have you ever seen a cat that can talk?"

"..." Lin Cheng was speechless and grabbed the quilt to cover his body, "I want to sleep."

The black cat jumped away from him and went to the balcony to watch the sunset.

....................................

I've been going out too much recently, so I need to rebound.

Lin Cheng played games happily at home for four days. He would order takeout after waking up every day, and start the game after eating. When he was tired, he would lie on the bed and play "Edge Girl". Occasionally, he would roll over and over, watching the sunrise and sunset outside the window.

He still occasionally sent messages to Xu Wanyue every day, and occasionally he could trick her into showing him a photo or two, but he no longer called her by voice.

She would also chat with Lu Xiaoxiao occasionally. There wasn't much for Lin Cheng and Lu Xiaoxiao to talk about, and they would occasionally play a few games together. Lu Xiaoxiao spent most of her free time continuing to study her swordsmanship. She once asked Lin Cheng if he wanted to go out for a drink in the evening, but Lin Cheng just wanted to lie at home and sleep.

Recently, Lin Cheng has been feeling helpless about something.

Because Jiang Li had been sending him messages since the day before yesterday, asking him if he was free for dinner recently. Lin Cheng politely declined, saying that he was still busy recently and didn't know when he would be free. Logically speaking, "some other day" meant that he would never have time again, but Jiang Li didn't seem to notice. In addition to making dinner appointments, she would also share some songs, movies, books, or some photos of scenery, flowers and stars with Lin Cheng.

Sometimes Lin Cheng would just leave the chat box open, but she would always send a lot of messages throughout the day. Lin Cheng felt it would be impolite not to reply. He didn't hate the things Jiang Li sent, but he knew very well that it would be difficult for him and Jiang Li to have any interaction again.

After all, they are from different worlds.

Anyway, Lin Cheng has been bored recently, and he has indeed chatted a lot with Jiang Li. Although he always claims to be a literary youth, it was actually two or three years ago that he started to read seriously. Two or three years ago, he had just retired and had nightmares all night long, so he would read books when he had nothing to do. As a result, he read too many different books and easily made himself tired. It seems not bad to have someone to talk to about these things. Lin Cheng occasionally chats with her at night. He swears that he did not chat with Jiang Li with any purpose of flirting. The turning point came this morning.

In the morning, he woke up in a daze and held the chat box. He habitually found the one at the top and sent her a message saying "Look at the white silk". Well, he sent a message saying "Look at the white silk" to Xu Wanyue every morning, just like a lottery. Sometimes there would be no message, and sometimes there would be one. After sending the message, he continued to sleep in a daze. After waking up, he suddenly found that... something was wrong.

He sent it to the wrong person.

Jiang Li and Xu Wanyue’s profile pictures are both cute kittens. Lin Cheng looked at the photo sent by Jiang Li and fell into deep thought.

...How can I get around this?

....................................

Jiang Li: Why would you suddenly... send this?

Jiang Li: Hey, that’s weird…why don’t you reply to the message?

Jiang Li: You, which one do you want to see...?

Jiang Li: Me, I only have those white calf socks that go with JK uniforms...

Jiang Li: Yes, do you want to see the kind with pantyhose?

Jiang Li: Is this okay? Why don’t you reply to the message…?

Jiang Li: [Picture] [Picture] [Picture]

Jiang Li: He suddenly disappeared... You are too much.

Lin Cheng rolled over and over on the bed several times. Social death came too suddenly. He really wanted to delete Jiang Li quickly so that he wouldn't have to face the hell of social death. But unfortunately he couldn't do that. Looking at the photos sent by Jiang Li, there were white silk over-the-knee socks, white silk tights, and white silk mid-tube socks, all of which were slightly transparent. Jiang Li's skin was originally fair, and the milky white skin and the slightly transparent white stockings were completely different colors, like cream ice cream. Moreover, she was tall, with slender and long calves.

Oh no, it's not important!

Lin Cheng racked his brains but couldn't think of how to explain this statement. Even if he said that he sent it to the wrong person, it still felt strange. The image of the literary young man collapsed in an instant.

This is the darkest moment for the artistic man.

Lin Cheng went crazy in front of the screen for five minutes. He had originally planned to send the message to the wrong person, but when he thought about the fact that he had sent the wrong message, but Jiang Li still hesitated for a long time and sent the photo to him, how embarrassed would Jiang Li be when he received this sentence? His head hurt even more.

After hesitating for another five minutes, Lin Cheng typed, "Your legs are so thin."

Although Lin Cheng took nearly six hours to reply, Jiang Li replied within three seconds, "Because I've lost a lot of weight recently..."

"I've been eating a lot lately and gaining a lot of weight."

"Well, I recently saw a western restaurant. Are you... free tonight?"

"Yes." Lin Cheng sighed helplessly and decided to go out tonight.

In fact, if he had ignored Jiang Li earlier, he would not have had this trouble. Jiang Li was not a fool and should have known the principle of retreating when faced with difficulties. But he was too mean and always felt that it was not good to leave others alone like this. But if he said something cold, firstly, it would hurt the other person's feelings, and secondly, it would seem as if he had some kind of inexplicable superiority. So he kept talking to her for several days, struggling with this.

Yasashi Lin Cheng sauce.

It seems that gentleness is an indispensable trait for the male protagonist in the harem of Japanese comics, which has deceived many ignorant teenagers into thinking that they can win the favor of girls as long as they are gentle... Although this is true, in the adult world that has been alienated by capital, gentleness that achieves nothing is a very humorous thing.

Of course, this is not absolute, and we still have to remain hopeful.

So Jiang Li quickly sent Lin Cheng the address and location, and agreed on the time. Ten minutes later, Jiang Li took a photo of him and asked him, "Does this skirt... look good?"

It is a warm-colored floral dress with an off-shoulder design. Girls with slender figures won't look ugly in this dress, although it won't support their chest very much.

"Quite good looking."

A few minutes later, Jiang Li sent him a beige suspender skirt. Lin Cheng thought this one looked better because it didn't need to be propped up, so it looked ethereal. At the same time, he saw the message from Jiang Li, "What about this one?"

"This one is more suitable for you."

"That's the one."

Lin Cheng threw his phone aside. After a while, it vibrated again. Seeing that Jiang Li had sent him two more photos of high heels, his head ached. He picked up a pair at random. After a while, he saw Jiang Li's message again.

"Do you... think I'm a bit annoying?"

She carefully sent a cat emoji to ease the embarrassment. Lin Cheng typed, "Hmm? Why do you feel that way?"

"It's fine if you don't."

Jiang Li sent him another picture of a cute cat.

Lin Cheng immediately sent the cat picture to Xu Wanyue, "Today's cat picture is here! Where's my white silk?"

All the cat pictures that Lin Cheng sent to Xu Wanyue these days were stolen from Jiang Li.

....................................

7 p.m.

It was summer and the summer nights were not that cool, so Lin Cheng was dressed simply, in a T-shirt and jeans. Lin Cheng's basic courtesy was to shave, wash his hair, put on a pair of sneakers, ride his scooter and put on a helmet, and came to the mall. He parked the car and went to the first floor. He just took out his cell phone to ask where Jiang Li was, and when he looked up he heard Jiang Li's voice.

"At this……"

Her voice sounded soft and a little timid. Lin Cheng looked at the woman standing at the entrance of the mall.

She was wearing the halter dress given to Lin Cheng and a pair of silver-gray high-heeled shoes with straps. Her hair was tied up at the back of her head, leaving only a wisp of hair on the side. She was carrying a small beige leather bag. The evening breeze blew the edge of her skirt slightly. Lin Cheng felt that if the wind was stronger, her slender body would be blown away. When his eyes fell on her cheek, Lin Cheng noticed her delicate makeup and bright eyes.

Compared to the last time we met, this time...it was like he was a completely different person.

The last time Lin Cheng saw Jiang Li, her eyes were haggard, her eye bags were deep, and her back was even slightly bent. But this time she looked bright and gentle, with her slender waist straight. Lin Cheng trotted to her side and said, "You're here so early."

He had arrived a few minutes early.

"I just got here a while ago, too." Jiang Li answered in a low voice, walked to his side, and went upstairs with him. Lin Cheng heard the ding-dong sound of high heels on the floor. In the elevator, he lowered his voice and asked in a low voice, "Will such high heels be uncomfortable to wear?"

"Yes... a little bit." Jiang Li's cheeks suddenly turned pink.

Lin Cheng could see it clearly through the reflection of the elevator.
