Chapter 98 Who's My Bride 08
If Maria is an actor, then her current performance is completely comparable to the best Oscar.
Stunned, dazed, confused, frightened, hideous, and emotionally progressive, Li Yu couldn't find the slightest flaw in his acting, but the picture on the light screen told him that everything in the mirror was normal.
The next second, there was another scream in Maria's room, extremely short.
Li Yu saw her desperately covering her mouth, her chest rising and falling rapidly because of the fright, obviously not wanting to attract other people.
In the living room, the fretful voice of the cook passed through the wall and spread throughout the room, "Maria, can you be quiet!"
Li Yu rolled over and sat up, saw Maria take a deep breath, and then approached the mirror carefully.
She tilted her head and looked at it for a while, then turned around and leaned on the sink in relief, touching her chest and muttering to herself, "That's not me, it's an illusion, it's an illusion, how could I possibly kill someone."
The bathroom is calm again.
Maria lowered her head and washed her face. Before going out, she looked back at her glasses. The woman inside was also looking at her, and there was nothing unusual.
The light screen disappeared.
Li Yu squeezed the center of his eyebrows and rubbed it twice. It was certain that what Maria saw in the mirror was completely different from what he saw in the mirror.
As for the reason, can't find out for a while, but it's better to sleep more practically.
He lay back on his back, rolled up the thin sheet, and within three minutes, a slight snoring sounded.
God has been holding back his emotions for the past two days and refused to rain. He originally thought it would continue to be cloudy. Who knew that when the two of them arrived at the gate of the community, the rain suddenly poured down.
Li Yu took the cook to the bus station to avoid the rain. When he saw a taxi approaching, he quickly reached out to stop it.
The cook sat in the car, wiping the rain from her forehead, cursing, "This damn weather."
Li Yu looked at her. From the moment she went out, the cook had been very temperamental. It wasn't that the housekeeper was pushing too much, or that Ma Li was nagging and screaming insanely in the middle of the night.
He said, "Sister Song, your face is not very good, did you not sleep last night?"
The cook's wiping hand stopped, and her lips trembled, "It's nothing, I just had a dream all night."
Thinking of Maria's strange behavior last night, Li Yu probed, "I also had a dream last night, about a mirror."
The cook's face changed slightly, "Did you dream too?"
Li Yu was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise, "Sister Song, did you dream too?"
Ahead, the driver glanced at the two of them from the rearview mirror and turned the steering wheel calmly, as if not interested in metaphysical topics.
The cook swallowed, "Dream, I, I..."
Worried that a strange look would be cast in front of her, she changed her words and whispered, "Get out of the car and talk."
The fish has already taken the bait, Li Yu is not in a hurry, "Okay."
The dormitory is very close to the farmers market. The car drove smoothly through a main road and turned a corner to arrive.
The rain was still falling, and the two of them covered their heads with their hands and rushed into the rain.
Due to the weather, the supermarkets and hotel logistics staff who came to purchase on weekdays did not arrive, and the market was much deserted than usual.
The cook brought the young man to a stall, picked up the dishes and said, "I dreamed that I was looking in the mirror, but the me in the mirror is not the same as myself, do you know what I mean? Fierce, bloodshot eyes... just staring at me like an enemy."
So that after getting up, she was nervous and stood in front of the mirror for a long time.
Thinking of the strange scene in the dream, the cook shuddered, her arms full of goosebumps.
"Xiao Jiang, what about you, what did you dream about?"
"My dreams are not scary." Li Yu said without changing his face, "I have been standing in front of the mirror watching myself in a daze. The worst thing is, I can't wake up. Fortunately, Sister Song, you knocked on the door early in the morning and called me."
The cook tsk tsk, "You're in a dream, right? It's alright."
Li Yu nodded, "I think so too."
The cook handed the selected tomatoes to the stall owner, and turned her head to persuade the young man, "Xiao Jiang, let's stay away from Maria in the future. I'm talking about it every day. I suspect that my nightmares are related to her."
Li Yu, "Why, what did she say to you?"
"That's not true," the cook said, "but she's always been abnormal. I'm not talking about her brain, but her behavior. You see last time when I mentioned Sister Wang next door, she was also shocked. call?"
"She was distracted at that time and was frightened by me."
"Fart." The cook disagreed, "I noticed that her ten fingers were entangled and trembling."
She glanced left and right and approached the young man, "I suspect that she has something hidden in her heart and has a guilty conscience."
Li Yu was surprised. He didn't expect the cook to observe these small details.
He pulled a plastic bag from the side and squeezed it in his hand, "Did Maria have anything unusual before? Except screaming at night."
The cook thought about it carefully, "She has no friends, and she doesn't like to go out. By the way, she likes to cry. If she sees a dog that was hit and killed by the road, she will cry for a whole day and night. Isn't this a disease of her brain?"
Once the chatterbox is opened, it is not so easy to close.
"By the way, I remembered. When I first came here, Maria didn't sleep every night. I woke up several times to drink the water toilet, almost scared to death by her."
"Because of insomnia?" Li Yu asked at the right time, which well inspired the cook's words**.
"It shouldn't be." The cook picked a piece of meat and handed it to the fresh food staff to weigh it. She turned her head and said to the young man, "It's more like she's afraid of something. I asked her once, but she asked me if I wanted to leave here. , I'm staying here very well, why should I leave?"
Thinking of these things, the cook's disgust for Maria became deeper and deeper.
Li Yu guessed that this should be the sequelae of Maria and her companions wanting to leave, but they were hit by a ghost and hit the wall.
The staff handed over the labeled tenderloin. Li Yu put another plastic bag on the outside and asked, "Sister Song, have you thought about leaving?"
"Of course not." The cook raised her voice suddenly, staring at Li Yu suspiciously, "Xiao Jiang, are you planning to leave?"
go? That is impossible.
Li Yu shook his head, "Shi Zhai's work is not very heavy, the salary is decent, and the accommodation environment is good, I won't leave."
"I think so too." The cook recalled her previous working experience, and couldn't help but start a long speech.
The cook never thought of leaving, and naturally she would not know that they might not be able to leave the city at all.
Li Yu decided to wait for the day when the salary was paid and confirmed it by himself.
When the rain stopped outside, the two walked to the stone house and started preparing breakfast as usual.
At about 7:20, the housekeeper arrived with a cane. He was like a strict obstetric inspector, staring hard at the two people who were busy in front of the stove. Even if a vegetable leaf fell to the ground, he would yell and reprimand.
Li Yu's left ear goes in and his right ear goes out, which is not affected at all.
The cook was just the opposite. She didn't miss a word, she took it all to her heart, her face was darker than the bottom of the pot, and while stirring the pot, she cursed in a low voice, how unpleasant it was, and two medical organ names popped up from time to time.
Li Yu, "..."
He silently walked to the side and chose the onion.
The green onion with the thickness of the index finger is very hot to the eyes. Before tearing a few onion skins, Li Yu felt that his nose was sore, the corners of his eyes were itchy, and his throat was blocked.
I sneezed three times in a row, and tears came out in an instant.
Li Yu sniffed, tenaciously removed the remaining onions, and rushed into the bathroom to wash his face.
He wiped his wet face and walked back, and happened to see a person walking towards him.
Us.
Li Yu stopped, and the other party also stopped.
Yu Si arrogantly put one hand into his pocket, raised one eyebrow, and said from a distance, "Jiang Yuan, long time no see, if nothing else happens, you and I will be colleagues in the future."
The security room has to be on duty 24 hours a day. If one leaves, one must be recruited immediately.
Li Yu snorted, turned his head and left.
The fist that he thought was heavy slammed on a pile of cotton, and remembering the indifferent expression of the young man, Yu Si jumped with anger.
He kicked the pillar hard, gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and tried to restrain the anger in his heart.
After a while, Yu Si returned to calm and searched for the housekeeper along the corridor.
The stone house is just a family residence with a limited area. It is naturally incomparable with the pavilions, pavilions, buildings and palaces in some scenic spots in the city, but for ordinary people, it is a mansion that cannot be lived in even if they work hard for ten lifetimes.
Yus raised his hand to brush the passing wall, lowered his head and sniffed the blooming flowers in the garden, filled with some kind of ambition.
In the kitchen, the cook has already prepared the pot and put Shi Yu's breakfast into a delicate and high-end lunch box.
The butler had inconvenient legs and an ugly cane in his hand, and had to give things to the young man he hated the most.
The youth did not show great excitement as he thought, and remained calm throughout.
This calmness made the housekeeper a little unhappy, so he tried to find a little mistake in the young man.
It failed.
As if he was deliberately opposing him, the young man walked neither fast nor slow, steady and powerful, and the food box in his hand was held firmly without shaking at all.
The housekeeper followed without a word, and before reaching the main room, he finally got the chance to speak.
"Put away your curiosity, take care of your eyes and mouth after you go in, and don't disturb Yaxing, the master's meal." He paused and said in a deep voice, "Remember your identity, you are just a servant."
Li Yu ignored him and raised his hand to knock on the door.
Shi Yu finished exercising, took a shower, and was wiping his hair.
He did not directly call in as before, but asked, "Who?"
The housekeeper said before the youth, "Sir, I'll bring someone over to deliver breakfast."
Looking down at his naked upper body, and the bath towel that was roughly wrapped under it, Shi Yu went into the cloakroom to change into his clothes, and came out with his buttons fastened, "Come in."
The master doesn't like outsiders to set foot in his private space. The housekeeper, who thought he would be rejected, quickly restrained his surprise and glared at the young man, "Be honest, don't make Mr. Shi unhappy."
Uncle, you are thinking too much. The last time I came to deliver food, I had a great time playing with the boss.
Li Yu pushed the door in earnestly and walked in, putting the food box on the dining table.
Shi Yu's shirt was neatly tucked into his trousers. Seeing the young man bring out the things with his eyebrows down, he walked over and sat down.
After taking a mouthful of porridge, he lowered his eyes and said softly, "Have you eaten?"
"Eat." Li Yu stood behind him, answering anything without saying a word.
Shi Yu's hand holding the spoon tightened slightly. After drinking, he stood up and looked down at the young man who was a head shorter than himself.
The man's aura was freely retractable, and as soon as he said it, Li Yu took a step back subconsciously.
The loser does not lose the battle, and he cannot retreat. He immediately stepped forward and looked up into the man's eyes.
"Do you have any other orders, Mr. Shi?"
Shi Yu felt inexplicably guilty when he was seen. His eyebrows rose, he grabbed the young man's chin and raised it, and found that the round eyes on the opposite side were a little red.
Li Yu blinked, his neck was about to break, "Mr. Shi?"
Shi Yu recovered and said word by word, "Remember what I said yesterday?"
"Can't go to the bar?" Li Yu said, "You can't go either."
"Why do you order me?" Shi Yu lowered his head slightly, and the air exhaled from his nose brushed vaguely on the other's lips.
Li Yu was true, "Then why do you order me, because you are my boss?"
The threat of salary deduction is shameless.
Outside the door, even the housekeeper felt that the atmosphere in the room was suffocating.
After the tense silence, Shi Yu released his hand and tapped his fingertips on the table, "Sit down, let's talk."
Li Yu hooked out a wooden stool with his toes, sat down, raised his chin, and motioned for the other party to speak.
Shi Yu sat upright, with his left arm resting on the edge of the table, "What do you think about the last blind date and myself? It's better to be more detailed."
Li Yu frowned, his mind blank.
Before college, he wrote a small composition; after college, he wrote a speech report and graduation thesis; after going to work, he wrote an induction report and a work diary.
No one had ever told him that he had to write a blind date report for assignments.
The man's fingertips hit the table rhythmically, his face was calm, and there was a dead silence in his deep eyes.
The nerves in Li Yu's brain suddenly tightened, and he felt cold all over. He knew that the man's patience at the moment was nothing more than a twisted indulgence.
It's like a smart beast, it keeps its prey in captivity and lets it grow happily and freely. Once the prey gets out of control, or develops in the direction he doesn't expect, the beast will open its big mouth and swallow it in one bite. Lose.
He must give the man a satisfactory answer.
Li Yu searched around in his mind, but could not find any words and references related to blind date.
"1551, do you have a small model essay there?"
"Yes." 1551 popped up a screen and introduced, "This is an example text I used when simulating human emotions."
Under the tense atmosphere, Li Yu didn't have time to read the full text, so he opened his mouth and started copying, "Oh, my dear, when I first saw you, I knew that your personality is as gentle as water, and you can tolerate my little..."
The corners of his mouth twitched, what the hell is this.
Shi Yu has lived to this day and has met many men and women who have confessed to him, but he always refuses coldly and does not give him any chance.
But like a young man, he is definitely the first one who dares to read a love letter face to face.
He raised his eyebrows, and things turned out to be more interesting than he had imagined.
The gentleman made a gesture of invitation, and Shi Yu said, "Continue."
Li Yu's lips were slightly open, his fingers were shaking, and he was angry.
"1551, what exactly did you give me." He quickly glanced at the follow-up content, almost blind.
1551 didn't know why, "Is there a problem?"
Li Yu fried, "This is a courtship letter!"
"But I only have this one." 1551 was confused, "but according to what I know about human feelings, the reason why the target asked you for your opinion should be because he likes you. You can take this opportunity to use this love letter to gain favor. I promise, You will definitely get unexpected results."
Li Yu, "..."
Whoever comes to take the system away, it is poisoned! !
