012 Misfortunes Never Come Alone

"Um."

Chen Xu responded, helped Luo Xiyun into the room, where there was a bathroom.

He knew that with her personality, if she hadn't been anxious, she would never have said this to him. Although he was a little unhappy with her, he was unwilling to make things difficult for her in such matters.

She sent her to the bathroom, put her phone on the shelf where she holds the shampoo and acts as a light source. Then, she went out.

After the bathroom door was closed, Chen Xu lost his only light source and fell into darkness, unable to see his eyes, and other feelings seemed to be enlarged, like smell. He now felt that he was surrounded by a very faint, pleasant scent.

It was a sweet fragrance, just like the fragrance he smelled when he first hugged his first love girlfriend in a dark alley that year in high school.

The sound of wind and rain outside seemed to come from a distant place, giving people an extremely peaceful feeling.

Through the bathroom door, he could clearly hear another sound of water, and the distracting thoughts in his heart spread like wild grass.

Suddenly, what Luo Xiyun said sounded in his mind again.

He rubbed his face hard and gently touched the door. There was no light, and it was pitch black everywhere. He could only walk all the way to the door with the impression he had just come in.

He opened the door and the cold rain hit his face, causing him to tremble. He didn't dare to stop and ran back to the next door quickly.

More than ten minutes later, Chen Xu, who had changed into clothes, came back in a raincoat and carrying a large bag of things.

Now that the base camp has lost power, I don’t know if it is a generator or a line problem. It is difficult to check it with such strong winds now.

Without electricity, it will cause a lot of trouble.

Luo Xiyun was injured again and was unable to move. No matter what, at least in this dream world, there were only two of them left. Not to mention supporting each other, and when one side was in trouble, he could not let it go.

"Even if it is out of humanitarian spirit, I should help you."

He thought so, walked into the cafe, took off his raincoat, and walked into the flashlight in one hand and a bag in the other.

He saw a light in the kitchen and thought to himself that she had sprained her feet since she was trapped in the morning until now. With such a strong wind, she might not have eaten anything and must have been hungry.

When I walked to the door, the beam of the flashlight shone in, shining on Luo Xiyun.

She turned her back to the door, as if she was cutting something. Her injured left foot was lifted off the ground and supported by her right foot, and she stood a little unsteadily. She must have known that he was coming, but she didn't look back or speak, but just cut things silently.

There is only the tick sound made by the kitchen knife when it hits the cutting board.

Chen Xu took out a desk lamp from the bag and turned it on, the white light illuminated the entire kitchen.

"I'll do it."

He took out a fresh bag containing ingredients from the bag, rolled up his sleeves, walked over, reached out to grab the kitchen knife in her hand, and wanted to take it over. Unexpectedly, she did not let go.

From the power of her holding the knife, Chen Xu felt a feeling of confrontation.

He had had girlfriends before, but he did not have experience with women. He knew very well that a woman's silence was a expression of dissatisfaction.

As for what he is dissatisfied with, he often doesn’t understand. Sometimes he will pretend not to understand if he understands it.

His ex-girlfriend has complained in front of him more than once, saying that he is a straight man in steel.

Now, Luo Xiyun has nothing to do with him, so he doesn't care even more.

He didn't speak, but just added some strength. Luo Xiyun persisted for a second, but still let go and let him take the kitchen knife away.

However, she did not leave, but walked to the kitchen cabinet, took out the dishes and rinsed them.

This kitchen was originally the back kitchen of the cafe. The space was large enough that the two of them would never seem crowded here, and they did their own things, which would not affect them, so Chen Xu did not stop her.

…………

After more than ten minutes, the steaming noodles were out of the pot.

There was a table in the kitchen. Luo Xiyun had already arranged all the dishes and chopsticks. Chen Xu took the pot over, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and started eating like this.

This was the third time they sat together for dinner. They were also sitting face to face. Through the white mist rising from the noodle soup, Chen Xu could see her face clearly and was slightly stunned.

Due to the power outage, it was the first time he picked her up and saw her head on.

She has obviously lost weight. Her temperament has changed a lot, with a little more quiet and a little weak.

The environment can really change a person.

He sighed in his heart.

In fact, he himself is not the case. Even though he knew it was just a dream, he had a completely vacation mentality, but after staying here for several months, he felt that some aspects of himself had changed.

Of course, this change is not a bad thing. At least, he has become more patient.

And Luo Xiyun now looks much more pleasing to the eye.

Both of them were hungry, and they were very attentive and quickly. After a while, they finished all the noodles, and there was no soup left.

After eating, Chen Xu picked up the pot and bowls and took them to wash.

He was used to tap water, and after he came to his dream, the tap water plant stopped working, and the tap water naturally disappeared. So he built a reservoir himself as a water source.

The reservoir was just filled with water yesterday, and it was enough for a few days.

After washing, he put the bowl back into the disinfection cabinet and suddenly discovered something. Many things here are two, the bowls are a pair, the chopsticks are two pairs, spoons, cups... and even the chairs next to the dining table are two.

He thought to himself, "Obsessive-compulsive disorder is so scary. Fortunately, I didn't live with her."

He doesn't think he is a sloppy person. He cleans the room once a week and washes off the changed clothes every day, trying to ensure that the room is tidy.

But that's the level.

If he had to clean his things spotlessly every day and everything was neatly arranged, he felt that he would not be able to stand it.

Luo Xiyun is undoubtedly a patient with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder. You can see it from the vegetable garden outside the door that looks like a garden.

After he packed everything, Luo Xiyun had already returned to the house first. He picked up the bag and the desk lamp, came to the closed door, knocked twice, and said, "Let me see your feet."

There was no response in the room. Just when he thought Luo Xiyun hadn't heard it, her cold voice came from it, "No need."

Chen Xu couldn't help frowning, and pulled the door handle and twisted it, but it was not locked. He opened the door and walked in, "Let me take a look."
