☆A day before Bo Yuchen's house got burnt down————

"Haaandsome dìdì~ cuuuute dìdì~~ i loooove dìdì~" Shou Yuqian was humming an unknownst melody as she skipped towards Yuchen's house and pressed his doorbell.

There was no response, even after waiting for a long time.

However, Shou Yuqian didn't become depressed. Her hands searched for a small key within her backpack and easily unlocked the anti-burglar door, before walking upstairs.

Nothing could make me happier than seeing Bo Yuchen, Qian thought to herself.

But when she opened Yuchen's door, she noticed a stranger that she didn't recognize searching underneath the television cabinets for something.

"Ohhhhhh, you're Yuchen's family right?"

"Who are you?" Qian's voice was very cold.

"I'm Xiao' Yuchen's neighbor, Chen-bo. I was thinking about helping Xiao' Yuchen repair his television."

"What are those things inside that bag?"

There was a rather large sling-bag over Chen-bo's back. The zipper on top of it wasn't closed, and a few wire-cutter and some electrical wires were exposed from within.

"Ah, It's only a few necessary electrical tools."

"Was it Yuchen that asked you to come along, when was it?"

"Yesterday at around 9 PM, i think. Yuchen suddenly gave me a call last night, saying that he was unable to watch the television. Hrrumph, nowadays youngsters are just like that, they don't even know how to repair a television."

He then stood up and plugged in the power supply, and immediately the television had images displayed on it.

"Alright, well then, I'll head off first, squatting for too long really does hurt my bones a little."

Chen-bo quivered as he walked past Qian towards the door.

"What about the money for repairing the television?"

"Ohhhhh. You see, this memory of mine, I'd nearly forgot about it. Well, it's not that big of an issue, so about a hundred dollars will do for the repairs."

Qian silently scrummages a hundred dollar note from her pocket, and handed it over to Chen-bo.

"Thanks."

After receiving the money, Chen-bo politely bowed towards Qian, and later when he reached home, he took out a bottle of white wine that he had just purchased that morning, while humming an old song from decades ago, as he switched on his 42 inch big newly bought television that he had just "earnt".

"Aiya~aiya, as expected, the prettier a woman gets, the dumber she becomes in return, she can't even detect such an obvious act, heh heh, maybe I should find a time to trick her over to have some fun with her body~"

Just as Chen-bo was muttering to himself while he drank the white wine, he completely didn't notice footsteps approaching him as his senses were already dulled by the alcohol.

"Ah~ I didn't know that Yuchen's old man was so rich, this golden ring would probably worth a few thousand, plus some other accessories too, I think that I could probably enjoy for quite a while."

Chuckling, he took out more and more accessories from his pockets, and after playing around with them for a while, he divided them into two categories: one for his collection, and one for selling off; this would probably be Chen-bo's biggest haul of his entire life's thievery. But don't misunderstand this, Chen-bo didn't steal for the sake of money, to put it in his words, it is merely a hobby similar to people doing morning exercises. Although he already aged past retirement, and had a son who owned a business as well as a grandson who made it to a famous school, Chen-bo thought that these matters had nothing to do with him being a thief, so while he acted a kind and benevolent appearance to his neighbors, he did some devious deeds to them behind their backs.

After drinking almost an entire bottle of white wine, Chen-bo's consciousness began to blur. As he walked unsteadily to switch off the kitchen's gas stove, a sudden push caused him to fall down onto the floor, and him being already heavily intoxicated, was knocked out just from that fall.

"What a piece of trash!"

A shadow of a person with a slender figure walked in from behind. That person, wearing a pair of gloves, grabbed Chen-bo's hands which were still grasping onto the neck of the bottle of white wine, and lifted it above the position of the fire of the gas stove, afterwards switching on the gas to it's maximum.

"You wanted to have some fun with my body, right~ sure thing......"

The person who appeared was Qian, whom Chen-bo initially thought had successfully fooled. Qian took back whatever Chen-bo had stolen before and leisurely closed the house door, and soon, a sound of explosion came from within.

At that moment, her face had an expression that a normal person wouldn't have at such situations.

After the house had been burnt down, I had no choice but to stay with jiejie who still had her duties as a teacher. Of course I myself felt rather uneasy about it, since it's a teacher's job to prepare for her lesson. And if jiejie takes care of me it would be akin to increasing her burden. But the other party told me not to worry about that sort of thing, and is also extremely welcoming about my stay-over.

"Well then jiejie will go and make dinner first~ Xiao' Chen you can go ahead and watch some television~ oh but you first can go look at your new room too if you want."

"I'll go look at the room first then."

"It's the second room on the left from the toilet~"

Ah, found it.

Opening the room door, I noticed that the beddings, study table, and even computer were all fully prepared, it's as if it was prepared for this moment from a very long time. And as I slickly touched the surface of the book table as well as some random corner of the room, there wasn't any speck of dust anywhere!! I wasn't sure of that, but I somehow can't shake the feeling that the decor in this room somehow existed just for me from the very beginning.

"Xiao' Chen, it's time to eat~"

"Coming!"

I hastily stood up from the bed, and when I was en route towards the living room, a seemingly concealed door caught my attention.

A very nice smelling fragrance seemed to have come from it.

Unconsciously, my hand stretched towards that wooden door.

"Xiao' Chen?"

"Aahh!?"

Jiejie was grabbing onto the hand that I've placed onto the doorknob with a smile.

"You can't just go into a girl's room like that~"

"S, sorry."

I hastily withdrew my hands, and followed jiejie to the dining table.

Same as last time when she cooked at my place, all of jiejie's dishes still tasted extremely delicious, making it rather hard to believe that these food were made from such a young lady.

"The dishes that jiejie made are all quite delicious."

"Hehe~ not really~"

Strangely though, she still hadn't touch her chopsticks, and only had a smiling expression as she stared fixedly at me, her hands resting on her chin with a somewhat intoxicated expression on her face.

"Jiejie, you........... ate already?"

"Mm!"

After that, the only sound that remained in the surroundings was me eating up my dinner. Although jiejie didn't really seemed to mind that, I felt that the atmosphere is somewhat extremely awkward.

"Jiejie, how old are you this year?" Although I tried to slightly liven up the atmosphere, I realized that I had asked such a dumb question after the words had left my mouth.......

"Ah, it's alright if you don't answer that, I was just asking any how......."

"23 years old, and it's fine, jiejie will always answer anything that Xiao' Chen asks~ "

"I, I see."

Suddenly, my eyes floated onto an object placed not far from us. It looked like a chain used to collar a dog up.

"Jiejie, you owned a pet dog before?"

"No~ope, but I might in the future~"

"Is it....."

I then remained quiet, and silence prevailed in the surroundings again. Although I understood the meaning of the idiom [When eating, one shall not disturb by talking; When sleeping, one must not disturb by speaking], it wasn't a pleasant feeling to have someone so fixedly staring onto you and smiling continuously as you ate your food.

☆

"Sigh......"

I laid against the balcony, and while I enjoyed the night breeze accompanied from living on a high building, I also stared at my milk tea which I was holding onto with a somewhat lifeless expression.

It was the first time that I couldn't sleep when it was midnight.

I-cant-sleep-so-what-should-i-do-right-now.

I sent a message to Guan Guo who's similarly still online in Q*.

'Explore'

"Oioi, what kind of a half-hearted response is that?"

Just as I was about to send another message, one came out from Guan Guo's side: Lao'zi is in the midst of a fierce battle right now, don't disturb me.

Heh, this fella must be really having a wild time.

I looked towards the clock, it's roughly 2 AM now. I then sent a text message 'Go look at your brother' to Guan Ting, and after a short while, Guan Guo's QQ* status switched to offline.

He deserved it!

But, explore huh, it didn't seem like a bad idea after all, plus there's something that piqued my curiosity.

Jiejie's room!

Silently, I crept towards the front of jiejie's door, and as expected, the door wasn't locked, so I discreetly opened the door room, and poked my head inside.

But at this very moment, my consciousness had vanished.
