Taoist Master and the Cat - Chapter 85
On Saturday evening, Xu Shou and Gu Jialing went to the supermarket to buy hot pot side dishes, and Xie Jingyuan stood at the gate of the community waiting for Su Miaomiao who had returned from training.
After the two met, Su Miaomiao called the roommates again and asked them to come and meet up.
It takes more than ten minutes to walk from the dormitory to here, Xie Jingyuan first took Su Miaomiao to a nearby fruit shop to buy fruit.
“Do you know what they like to eat?” He asked Su Miaomiao.
Su Miaomiao recalled for a while, and said: “Lulu has eaten durians, Zhuzhu has eaten oranges, Lingling has eaten kiwis.”
She didn’t spend much time in the dormitory, so she could only guess based on some pictures she had seen before.
Xie Jingyuan bought these three kinds, and then bought two boxes of Su Miaomiao’s and Gu Jialing’s favorite strawberries, and Xu Shou’s favorite apples.
While he was waiting for the boss to peel the durians at the cashier, Su Miaomiao came over with a bag of yellow peaches.
“The Taoist priest always forgets to buy it for himself.” Su Miaomiao rubbed his arm and put the yellow peach on the cash register.
Xie Jingyuan lowered his eyes, touched her hand with his fingertips, and retracted it in the next second.
Because they bought a lot, the owner of the fruit shop gave them a box of coconut juice.
Several kinds of fruits add up to a heavy weight, Xie Jingyuan carried the two heaviest bags, Su Miaomiao was afraid that the strawberries would be damaged, so it was rare for her to offer to help.
After waiting for a few more minutes, the three of Zhao Lu came.
“Wow, did you buy this for us? Daoist Xie is so kind.”
Xie Jingyuan glanced at Su Miaomiao, and explained: “Miaomiao said that you like to eat these.”
The roommates were very moved and rushed over to hug Su Miaomiao.
Su Miaomiao: “Don’t crush my strawberries!”
Soon the girls were walking in front, and Xie Jingyuan followed silently.
On the way, Su Miaomiao also received a video call from her parents. Su Mingan and his wife saw that their daughter got along so well with her roommates, and they even had dinner together on weekends. They were so moved that they wanted to cry.
At the end of the video, the couple hugged each other and giggled. Finally, they don’t have to worry about their daughter not being able to make friends!
Su Miaomiao couldn’t see this scene, Xie Jingyuan went to 801 to wash the fruit first, Su Miaomiao took her roommates to 802 to visit her small home.
When Gu Jialing’s cheerful ditties came from the corridor, the four girls followed and went to 801.
“Wow, the house shared by the boys is so clean, I thought it would be messy.”
Gu Jialing: “Of course, we are not the same as those mortals who wash their dirty socks for a week.”
Gu Jialing loves cleanliness very much, Xu Shou and Xie Jingyuan are the same, and in order to entertain Su Miaomiao’s roommates today, they did a big cleaning in a serious manner early in the morning.
Gu Jialing wiped the entrance cabinet with her fingers and showed it to the girls.
Zhao Lu: “I admire it! It’s much cleaner than our dormitory!”
Xu Shou called Gu Jialing: “Come and help.”
He wants to be lazy every time, so he won’t get used to Gu Jialing’s laziness.
Gu Jialing had no choice but to go to the kitchen.
Su Miaomiao continued to visit with her roommates, only looking in at the door of each room.
Xu Shou’s room was simple, and there was nothing worth discussing. In Gu Jialing’s master bedroom, as soon as they opened the door, they saw the blue feather suit hanging on the wall.
“Don’t tell me, this outfit is definitely eye-catching if worn by another person. Gu Jialing can only support it purely by her height and appearance.”
“Well, I want to hear him sing later, I don’t know if he wants to.”
All the roommates looked at Su Miaomiao.
Su Miaomiao: “Don’t worry, he will definitely be willing.”
No need to ask, Gu Jialing wanted to hum almost all the time, people outside wanted Gu Jialing to sing, there were only three of them, they wanted to stick Gu Jialing’s mouth.
The last one I visited was Xie Jingyuan’s room.
The quilt was neatly folded, and the sheets were spread without any creases, as if this bed would not be used at all, and it was just a decoration.
There is a white hanger in the room, on which is hung the big scarf woven by Su Miaomiao, layered on top of each other, it is quite artistic.
Zhao Lu whispered: “I can completely imagine Xie Daochang’s tenderness when he hung up the scarf. Look, he even put on a pose.”
Chen Ling: “Yeah, if it were me, I would just throw it up, as long as it doesn’t fall off.”
Zhu Xingzhu: “To be honest, if I were a man and received such a long scarf, I would just put it on the bottom of the suitcase.”
The roommates laughed.
Su Miaomiao: …
The scarf is obviously pretty, and the Taoist priest also likes it very much. He wears it every day, and the Taoist priest knows some small spells, which can always keep the scarf as white as snow.
“Hey, Miaomiao, can you show us the two photo frames on Daoist Xie’s desk?” Zhao Lu noticed the bright spot, “Daozhang Xie doesn’t seem like a narcissistic person, these two photos must have content.”
Su Miaomiao knew what the photo was, so she showed it to them openly.
Those were two photos of Su Miaomiao, Xie Jingyuan and Grandma Tao, one was taken when they were three years old, and the other was taken after they graduated from high school.
“Wow, Miaomiao was so cute when she was young!”
“Xie Daochang is also very cute!”
“The two of you actually started wearing couple clothes at that time!”
In the three-year-old photo, Su Miaomiao and Xie Jingyuan were both wearing ancient costumes.
The girls were chattering, and in the kitchen, Gu Jialing looked at Xie Jingyuan sourly: “The Taoist priest is biased, why didn’t you arrange for me and Xu Shou to be reincarnated next door to your house?”
He also wanted to grow up with the Taoist priest, and he also wanted to cultivate a brotherhood with the Taoist priest, so that the Taoist priest would take care of him as his own brother and pamper him like he pampered Su Miaomiao.
Xie Jingyuan: “I didn’t arrange it.”
Gu Jialing: “Then why can you two be together?”
Xie Jingyuan couldn’t explain.
Xu Shou guessed: “Maybe at that time, Su Miaomiao was the closest to the Taoist priest.”
Mentioning the vicious fight with the monsters in the Qingxu Temple in her previous life, Gu Jialing’s heart trembled, and her face showed fear.
Xie Jingyuan cleaned the fruit silently, a trace of confusion appeared in his eyes.
The sword light from his best cultivation will only attack the evil monster on the opposite side, and will never hurt Su Miaomiao who is hiding behind him.
At that time, Xu Shou and Gu Jialing had already run out of fuel, and their serious injuries were hard to recover. Why would Su Miaomiao…
Could it be that after his death, an evil monster escaped by chance and killed her again?
Xie Jingyuan once asked Su Miaomiao this question, but Su Miaomiao couldn’t explain anything, the last thing she saw before reincarnation was a golden sword light from him.
After the side dishes were prepared, seven college students sat around the dining table and ate, three of which were brought from 802.
Su Miaomiao still looked like she was enjoying it, Xie Jingyuan, who likes to eat, would cook it for her and put it on a plate without exerting any effort.
Zhao Lu: “This is too happy. If my future boyfriend is willing to treat me like this, then it doesn’t matter if he is ugly.”
Gu Jialing: “No, your partner must be good-looking, otherwise you won’t even be able to eat.”
Back then, if a beautiful female bird wanted to forcefully bow to the Overlord, Gu Jialing might be able to bear it. He would rather die than obey the black crow!
Zhao Lu made fun of him: “I think you look pretty, how about we try it?”
Gu Jialing glanced at her black hair, wondering: “I can cook your meat for you, it’s fine if you fall in love.”
Zhao Lu was already overjoyed: “Okay, then let me enjoy the wonderful Queen Mother treatment!”
Gu Jialing really helped her cook the meat.
Chen Ling and Zhu Xingzhu cast their eyes on Xu Shou’s face together, but Xu Shou’s aura was colder than Xie Jingyuan’s, so they didn’t dare to speak.
Xu Shou took the initiative to help the two girls a few times, with a typical cold face and warm heart.
Everyone had a great time eating hot pot, and there were fruits and meat after eating.
The roommates found that the fruits sold in the fruit shop outside the lakeside community seemed to be very sweet, as if they were picked after the fruits naturally ripened.
“Hey, I’ve lived for eighteen years, and I’ve never eaten such a sweet durian!”
“Miaomiao, thanks to you, I had such a great time tonight!”
The roommates surrounded Su Miaomiao, the happy smiles on their faces never stopped.
I stayed until after eight o’clock in the evening before the roommates had to go back to school.
Xie Jingyuan said: “It’s dark outside, we’ll send you back.”
Zhao Lu: “No, no, no, we are not children anymore when we are so close.”
Xie Jingyuan insisted on sending them off because they were all Su Miaomiao’s roommates, so of course Su Miaomiao would accompany them. As for Xu Shou and Gu Jialing, they would stay in 801 to clean up the mess.
Gu Jialing gritted her teeth at a table of bowls and chopsticks: “The Taoist priest must have done it on purpose, to be lazy on purpose!”
Xu Shou: “Stop talking nonsense, the Taoist priest just did his due courtesy.”
Gu Jialing: “What kind of etiquette? That’s Su Miaomiao’s roommate. Can’t it be enough for Su Miaomiao to send it off by herself?”
Xu Shou explained to him: “The priest is now Su Miaomiao’s nominal boyfriend. If he asks Su Miaomiao to deliver it by himself, it would be dereliction of duty, and Zhao Lu and the others would blame and dislike him.”
A competent boyfriend will worry about accidents when his girlfriend’s roommates walk at night, and he must personally accompany his girlfriend.
In short, Xu Shou understood the Taoist priest’s approach very well.
Xie Jingyuan and Su Miaomiao sent the dormmates to the gate of Peking University. When they arrived here, the dormmates didn’t need to send them off any more, and entered the campus intimately arm in arm.
“Do you still want to go shopping?” Xie Jingyuan asked Su Miaomiao.
Su Miaomiao has been training for a day, and now that she is full, she just wants to sleep.
“You carry me back.”
She walked around behind Xie Jingyuan, and her hands were already on his shoulders.
Xie Jingyuan had no choice but to lower his body and let her come up.
The two walked back, on the left was the bustling road with cars coming and going, and on the right was the outer wall of the Peking University campus.
Because I have only eaten hot hot pot, even if there is a wind blowing, I will not feel cold.
Su Miaomiao dozed off comfortably. For a moment, she sniffed and smelled the fresh mint scent.
She opened her eyes, looked ahead, stared at Xie Jingyuan for a while, and found that he was chewing mints.
“Do you want it?” Xie Jingyuan asked, “It has strawberry flavor.”
Su Miaomiao immediately said: “Yes.”
Xie Jingyuan took one out of his pocket, tore off the package, and handed it to her.
Su Miaomiao bit it over, took it in her mouth, continued to tilt her head and lay on his shoulder, chewing with relish.
Back in the community, Xie Jingyuan put her at the gate of 802. After watching Su Miaomiao go in, Xie Jingyuan went back to 801.
Gu Jialing came out of the kitchen, saw him, and started to get angry: “It’s really good to grasp the Tao for a long time, we just finished cleaning the dishes.”
Xie Jingyuan: “Then I will move Su Miaomiao’s chair back.”
Three chairs with backrests are not convenient for one person to carry.
Xu Shou wanted to help, Xie Jingyuan asked him to read a book, he carried two in one hand and one in the other, and went out the door.
Xu Shou glared at Gu Jialing.
Gu Jialing slipped away guilty, he knew that the Taoist priest was not that kind of person, so he was just joking!
Xu Shou didn’t read the book either, and took out the mop to mop the floor.
Xie Jingyuan put the three dining chairs back to their original places, and heard the sound of water splashing from the bathroom, it was Su Miaomiao taking a bath.
Xie Jingyuan wanted to leave, but he also wanted to stay.
Up to now, he still clearly remembers the kiss that Su Miaomiao took the initiative to kiss downstairs in the dormitory at noon yesterday.
He was standing in the living room, the sound of water in the bathroom was so loud, but he could still hear the “da da” sound of the second hand of the wall clock moving.
Maybe, she’ll need his help drying her hair.
Three minutes later, the sound of the water stopped, and Xie Jingyuan walked towards the entrance, in case she thought there was no one here and would come out without her pajamas.
He just stood still, and after a brief silence, the hum of the hair dryer came from the bathroom again.
Xie Jingyuan: …
He took the doorknob and opened it.
Su Miaomiao didn’t hear the closing sound of the door, she finished drying her hair, and when she came to the living room to pick up her mobile phone, she noticed the change at the dining table.
Immediately afterwards, Xie Jingyuan sent a message saying that he had sent back the dining chair.
Su Miaomiao: I see.
Xie Jingyuan: Going to sleep?
Su Miaomiao: Well, sleep after drying the clothes.
Xie Jingyuan: Do you want my help?
Su Miaomiao thought for a while and replied “No”.
She still remembers that time when the Taoist priest lost his temper with her because of these trivial housework, he was so fierce.
Therefore, she didn’t want to bother the Taoist priest for trivial things like drying clothes without any effort.
