    Chapter 18 Mystery

    This time, Mu Qing slept soundly. He didn't wake up until the open door was pushed open by the mischievous cat, and the unpleasant burnt smell drifted in through the crack of the door.

    "Cough, cough, cough!"

    The body reacted before consciousness, Mu Qing stretched out his hand to cover his mouth and nose, frowned and sat up.

    This taste.... who is doing biochemical experiments in his house?

    The devastated Yun Si hid in the quilt and meowed furiously, trying her best to accuse this cruel crime of non-miao; Mu Qing touched the swearing cat across the quilt, and reached out to the bedside cabinet to touch her glasses. , intends to go out and find the source of this terrible taste.

    The place where he usually put his glasses was empty. Mu Qing searched twice and couldn't find it. Then he suddenly remembered: He slept in the guest room yesterday, and he put the glasses there.

    "Forget it." Anyway, in his own home, it doesn't matter whether he wears glasses or not.

    Mu Qing pushed open the door and walked out. The impact of the pungent burnt smell suddenly increased a notch, accompanied by a faint "hissing" sound. Mu Qing held his breath, strode to the kitchen door, and opened the half-closed door.

    The man in front of the stove was taken aback: "It's still early, why did you get up?"

    Mu Qing was so smoked by the smell that tears almost came out. He walked over and turned off the fire, turned on the range hood again, and turned it to the highest setting.

    The sound of the machine's starting prompt sounded, and the humming of the fan blades quickly took away the scorched smell comparable to biochemical weapons. Mu Qing coughed and blinked his tearful eyes: "Are you trying to murder me?"

    Full of tears that could not be hidden, they slid down the corners of his eyes, leaving two crystal traces on his face. Without the protection of glasses, the slightly reddish corners and wet pupils all fell into Yu Yifeng's eyes.

    "It's so beautiful." Yu Yifeng watched the whole process and admired it from the bottom of his heart.

    "What?" Mu Qingzheng squinted his eyes to carefully identify the contents of the frying pan, but just couldn't hear it clearly.

    "I mean—I got up early today and wanted to make you some breakfast."

    Mu Qing looked at the suspicious black bulge in the frying pan and asked, "When you say breakfast, do you mean this?"

    "Um."

    "Do what?"

    Yu Yifeng lowered his head in shame: "Fried eggs."

    Mu Qing: ......

    He glanced at the messy cutting board in silence, and didn't intend to identify what was in the sink.

    Yu Yifeng originally entered the kitchen with the purpose of "making some failed products so that Mu Qing can come to cook and at the same time realize how important he is to himself", but from the current results, he is still too overestimated. own cooking skills.

    "sorry."

    Mu Qing looked at the man in front of him and wanted to teach him some basic common sense of independent living, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them again.

    The person in front of him is just here to play a hard-to-get love game with himself, and he doesn't intend to partner with him to live a serious life; so even if he blows up the kitchen, there is no need to criticize him. They will probably never be in touch again.

    Mu Qing comforted himself in his heart, showing a very restrained smile: "It's okay, novices will do this. But if you want to cook next time, remember to wake me up with you, okay?"

    This means....and next time!?

    Yu Yifeng was keenly aware of the invitation implied in his words, and his mood instantly improved a lot: "Well, I must...don't move!"

    Mu Qing's movements froze in midair: "What's wrong?"

    Yu Yifeng walked over to lightly block his hand, and carefully moved the paring knife that was on the edge of the chopping board aside: "There is a knife here, I just cut the onion and put it here, I haven't had time to clean it up, don't touch it. "

    Mu Qing smiled and retracted his hand as if nothing had happened: "You really worked hard."

    Yu Yifeng coughed lightly: "Well, go wash up first, I'll clean up the kitchen, it's almost time, let's go out to eat later, I'll treat you."

    "No." Mu Qing said, "I'll do it later."

    "Is there enough time?" Yu Yifeng hesitated.

    Mu Qing glanced at him: "My first class today is ten o'clock in the morning, the same time as yours - what are you doing with this expression?"

    Yu Yifeng's smile is sunny and bright: "I didn't expect you to remember my class time, I'm a little happy!"

    His smile was very contagious, and Mu Qing bent his lips: "Your class is only four sessions a week, and the time is about the same. As a friend, how could I not remember it?"

    Resisting the urge to tidy up the kitchen according to the other party, Mu Qing turned around and walked out, "Let's turn on the range hood first, and let go of the smell; you can go to the living room and wait to eat after you've cleaned up— - Will you clean up?"

    "I washed the dishes for you yesterday."

    Mu Qing didn't speak, nodded and left the kitchen.

    Yu Yifeng looked at the messy kitchen, sighed, and resignedly began to clean up: Although the plan this morning was barely achieved, but cooking is something that should not be attempted in the future.

    Mu Qing went to the bathroom to wash briefly, then returned to the guest room, took out his glasses and put them on, did some psychological construction in silence, and came to the kitchen with a proper smile.

    Although Yu Yifeng wasn't very good at cooking, his cleaning was okay; when Mu Qing walked in, most of the kitchen was clean - except for the frying pan that was soaked in the sink and still had black carbide sticking to it. .

    Mu Qing looked at the charred bottom of the pot and judged calmly: can't have this pot anymore, let's buy a new one after get off work at night.

    Yu Yifeng was politely invited out of the kitchen, sat bored in the living room, checked his mobile phone, and clicked on the unread message at the top.

    Grandma: Auntie said you didn't go home last night, where did you go wild?

    Grandma: Grandma will not interfere with you if you are with a man or a woman, but you must take protective measures and pay attention to safety and hygiene.

    Grandma: I asked Dr. Qi to make an appointment for a physical examination for you. If you are sick, you can treat it.

    Yu Yifeng sighed and replied: I really just celebrated his cat's birthday at my friend's house yesterday, and I didn't go back because of the rain.

    Grandma: Hmmmm, I understand, remember to do the inspection. [bye bye soy]

    Yu Yifeng:.........

    But he really didn't do anything yesterday.

    When Mu Qing fell asleep, he did have the urge in his heart for a moment, thinking about whether to do something that he couldn't do when the other party was awake; but when he approached the other party and heard his steady and long breathing, Yu Yifeng suddenly didn't want to do it.

    Yu Yifeng had many exes before, and the reason for breaking up was almost always that he was the first to get tired of each other. His enthusiasm came and went faster, and he even did such a thing as holding hands the day before and then disbanding directly after two days, but when he was with everyone, he retained his respect for each other.

    He didn't cheat when they got along, and he didn't let the other party do anything against his will, or even the requirements of the other party when they broke up. Therefore, few people have any entanglement with him about the relationship of the relationship. At most, it is difficult to let go of the unrequited love.

    But even if Yu Yifeng is a scum, he has always been a scumbag, and he has never had a sneak attack in the middle of the night. It's not even worthy of being called a scum when someone is asleep, it's called indecent.

    He was silent for a long time in the silence, but in the end he just leaned down slightly, got close to Mu Qing's profile, and gave a light kiss in the void.

    The screen of the extinguished mobile phone suddenly lit up, Yu Yifeng's thoughts were pulled from his memory, and he looked at the medical examination application form handed over by his grandmother.

    The aroma came from the kitchen, and Mu Qing opened the kitchen door: "Come here and serve it, it's time to eat."

    Mu Qing's cooking skills are not at the same level as Yu Yifeng's, and the food he cooks is perfect:

    The toast is baked until both sides are crispy, the butter-fried fish is full of aroma, the omelette is perfectly shaped, and the seasoning of the vegetables is just right, which fully reflects what it means to be full of color and flavor.

    Yun Si, who was squatting next to the feeder, was tempted by the fragrance, and walked gracefully to Mu Qing's side. With her perseverance, Miao Miao Miao asked for a small piece of vegetables that were not contaminated with seasonings from the owner. After leaning on Mu Qing's legs and eating, it refused to leave, and came to Yu Yifeng and sat down again, looking at each other eagerly.

    Yu Yifeng looked at Yunsi who was looking forward to it, but did not dare to give it to eat immediately, but first confirmed with Mu Qing: "Can I share it?"

    "Well, but it can't eat seasoning, you can give it a small piece of toast."

    Yu Yifeng did as he was told, carefully tore a bit of toast and handed it over, Yun Si happily ate it. Seeing that it was eating happily, Yu Yifeng reached out and touched its head, but Yunsi didn't resist and let him touch it.

    Mu Qing looked at his cat's squeamish and clingy appearance, but was secretly surprised.

    Although Yun Si really doesn't hate people other than him, and occasionally takes the initiative to approach after a long time of contact; but he still maintains basic vigilance against strangers who come to the house for the first time, and does not appear too enthusiastic , and will not eat the food handed to it by others.

    But when Yu Yifeng came to the house yesterday, he was very enthusiastic. He not only gave him a hug, but also took the initiative to share his favorite cat-friendly stick with him and eat the goat milk jelly given by Yu Yifeng. Today He actually took the initiative to ask him to eat - was this bought by him?

    Because of the cat's interference, the two of them ate this meal for nearly half an hour. By the time Yu Yifeng got up to clear the table, it was almost eight o'clock.

    Mu Qing didn't compete with him to wash the dishes. He stood up and planned to change the water in the water dispenser for Yun Si, but the phone suddenly rang. There was no note on the call alert, it was a completely unfamiliar number.

    Call at this time?

    Mu Qing raised his eyebrows and picked it up: "Hello?"

    "Ah! You, hello! Are you Mr. Mu?" The girl on the other end of the phone seemed to be worried about making a noise.

    "It's me. You are—"

    "Ah! Hello, teacher, I'm Si Yueyue! That, the study committee member of the second Russian class of the third year... Do you remember me?"

    "Well, I know." Mu Qing softened his voice, "Call me at this time, is there something wrong?"

    "It's such a teacher, I..." Si Yueyue's voice suddenly stopped for a moment, and then it sounded again, "I have something to do today, I can't go to school for the time being, can I ask for a day off? "

    Mu Qing has never interfered with the freedom of students very much, and naturally he will not impede her here: "Yes, but you have to do your own preparations after class."

    "Okay, thank you teacher! Goodbye teacher!"

    Si Yueyue hung up the phone quickly, but Mu Qing's brows suddenly wrinkled.

    The moment Si Yueyue hung up just now, he seemed to vaguely hear a hoarse male voice. But Si Yueyue's family environment is not good, she should usually live in the school's dormitory. The school's dormitory is very strict, and the girls' dormitory is absolutely not allowed to come in and out; in this case, how can there be a man's voice?
