In the evening, Luo Qiu was watching TV in the living room after preparing dinner.
And our Subeditor Ren had also come back from work, exhausted.
"I am back..."
With a drag, Ren Ziling walked into the room, as if her waist had been broken, lying on the sofa without any delay, and leaving the half the body slipping off the sofa.
She turned her head and looked towards Luo Qiu, gaunt and tired, like a mummy.
All these almost lead Luo Qiu to believe that this woman could be a good gymnast. Wasn"t this kind of body movements a little anti-human?
"I am back…" Again muttered Ren Ziling.
"Oh." Luo Qiu nodded randomly.
"Is that all?" Ren Ziling propped herself up from the sofa incredulously, sat on the sofa, and stared at Luo Qiu with her eyes wide opened.
"That"s all." Said Luo Qiu… Boss Luo calmly.
Ren Ziling was so upset that she even wanted to cry. "Oh, there is no more warmth I can feel in my family, I gonna… I am gonna leave here!"
Luo Qiu took out his phone.
"What are you doing now?" Ren Ziling asked curiously.
"Don"t you want to leave here?" Luo Qiu commented in a positive tone. "Each time you would go to Uncle Ma"s home with food and drink served freely, so as to avoid confusion, I"d better call auntie first to get a room ready for you."
"…"
Ren Ziling suddenly felt hopeless. She put her hands on her heart, pinching her lips, then fell on the sofa, saying, "You have hurt me so deeply that I almost… almost died… Next year, do remember to burn me another stick of incense… ahh…"
Luo Qiu had a drink of water then said, "Remember to wash the bowl after eating, then only go to die."
Ren Ziling opened her eyes and asked weakly, "What did you prepared for dinner?"
"Little wonton."
"Wow, that"s great!"
With a smile, Ren Ziling rolled out of sofa immediately, rus.h.i.+ng to the wonton on the table, which looked like the old woman who was rus.h.i.+ng to the supermarket for discounted foods. "I am starving to death! I haven"t eaten anything for the whole day! d.a.m.ned Lizi, taking emergency leave for so many days, leaving me in a mess!"
Luo Qiu stood up suddenly, "I got to go out and buy something."
Ren Ziling was stunned. Luo Qiu said nothing then, just putting on his shoes and opened the door to leave.
"Going out at such a late time? Buy what? Shall I wait for you?" Ren Ziling asked and went to the door with her bowl, only to hear the sound of the closing door. "How mysterious… it tastes good," she whispered.
Slurp… Slurp…
The sound of soup being drunk resounded.
…
…
It was not the first time Luo Dance saw the boss in plain clothes.
At the moment Luo Qiu showed up in the club hall, the little b.u.t.terfly monster even had a feeling that he was just an ordinary man.
He was quiet, but did not have the mysterious and weird aura of the boss here.
But the next moment, Luo Dance realized that it must be her wrong perception.
Because when her gaze met Luo Qiu"s, she could feel clearly that unreal sense… as if he came from another different world.
Far away from here.
After seeing the boss, The servant girl who was serving tea, hurriedly put down the tray on her hand and nodded slightly to Luo Qiu, saying, "Master, This is Miss Su Zijun, Miss Luo brought her here."
Luo Qiu then looked at Su Zijun who was sitting beside him.
She looked like a young girl aged fifteen or sixteen, wearing a reddish black dress.
That skin was abnormal. It was the kind of white that had not seen suns.h.i.+ne for a long time.
At this time, seeing Luo Qiu came toward her, Luo Dance stood up immediately and apologized, "Sorry, I am sorry, I am sorry for bothering you again, boss."
Luo Qiu smiled casually, he pointed his chin and said, "Is your mouth still hurting?"
"Ah…" Luo Dance"s face turned red suddenly, and she put her hands over her lips, murmuring, "Not anymore, not anymore."
Seeing this, Su Zijun frowned, saying, "Take a seat, little girl, we are customers here, no need to apologize to others, since this is the place for business. They should certainly greet us."
Luo Dance pursed her lips, and didn"t know how to follow Sister Zi Jun"s words.
"Take a seat, both of you." Luo Qiu smiled and said, "Miss Su is right, we indeed should entertain our customers."
Luo Qiu sat down, "I wonder if the welcome here didn"t satisfy you, Miss Su?", asked Luo Qiu.
Su Zijun squinted her eyes, said slightly, "What are these things? You serve your customers with this kind of tea?"
The servant girl stood by Boss Luo calmly, as if she had heard nothing at all.
She would not get angry unless her boss got angry.
"I see…", Luo Qiu nodded and replied slightly, "May I know which drink could make Miss Su satisfied?"
"Blood." Su Zijun squinted, and a flash of dark red show up in her eyes. She sneered, "Especially the blood of the baby girl born in the 14th day of July between 11PM to 1AM as per the Chinese Lunar calendar, do you …"
She opened her eyes a little to meet Luo Qiu"s line of sight, said proudly, "Do you have it here?"
At this time, Luo Dance stretched her hands under the table and tried to stop Su Zijun by pulling her clothes. But Su Zijun didn"t, she keep sneering and said, "So, you don"t have it?"
"Miss Su, it has been some time since the 14th day of July as per Chinese lunar calendar," Luo Qiu stated, "It isn"t the right time now."
Su Zijun replied slightly, "Oh? Is it? I heard that everything could be found here, is it all a scam?"
Luo Qiu answered, "That kind of blood Miss Su mentioned is no longer on the list that we served to our customers. But if you insist on drinking it, you could buy it. I also advise you to buy it."
"How will you sell it? Su Zijun squinted and said, "I don"t know very much about the price, you can fix the price that I can afford for now."
Luo Qiu glanced at Luo Dance, who looked a little embarra.s.sed. He shook his head slightly, then turned his head to Su Zijun in front of him.
Suddenly, a feeling of something touching her whole body made Su Zijun uncomfortable. She frowned at her anxiously.
Just at that time, she heard Luo Qiu said slowly, "Then, Miss Su, please cut off a strand of hair as an exchange for this special drink."
"Hair? A strand of hair?"
Luo Dance was so surprised, it seemed to be the first time that she knew that hair could be used for a trade.
Her sparkling eyes suddenly tuned to Luo Qiu.
Luo Qiu smiled and said to her, "Your hair can"t offset your white jade."
"Okay, fine…"
Luo Dance lowered her head in disappointment…
…
"Hair?" It seems that Su Zijun had also never thought of such an answer. She frowned even deeper, asking, "Why? Why hair?"
"Each thing has its own value, your hair cannot be excluded." Luo Qiu stated, "Miss Su"s hair has been poured with someone"s whole life, it is certainly a kind of treasure, so precious it is, one strand is enough."
"You…"
Su Zijun suddenly stood up and her body floated slightly with her straight scattered hair fluttering in the air. The dark red evil spirit flowed down from her body like mercury. What"s more, her eyes became even more crimson. "How dare you!"
In the face of angry Su Zijun, Luo Qiu shook his hand and let the Miss. Maid, who was about to take some action, calm down. Then he said to Su Zijun, "Miss Su, can you not frighten her?"
Luo Qiu looked toward Luo Dance.
So did Su Zijun subconsciously.
They saw that Luo Dance"s pale face was even more white and scary. Her lips trembled slightly, as if she wanted to say something. She looked to be in pain, but still held on by clenching her teeth.
She was overwhelmed by the terrifying aura of Su Zijun"s evil spirit.
Su Zijun took a deep breath, came back on the ground, landing on her bare feet, and her hair fell down again. In no time, Su Zijun returned to her delicate appearance which looked like a porcelain doll. Then she said, "I don"t want blood anymore, troublesome."
"So what else do you want, Miss Su?" Asked Luo Qiu.
Su Zijun looked at Luo Qiu and said, "I headed that anything is acceptable here except money, right?"
"Correct."
Su Zijun nodded, then said to Luo Dance suddenly, "Dance, I have something to talk with Boss Luo, you can go and find a place to stay for a while."
"Huh?" Luo Dance gave a start, but she nodded when she saw a look of determination on Su Zijun"s face.
At this time, You Ye smiled and said to Luo Dance, "Miss Luo, would you please come with me to the kitchen? Let me get you something to eat."
…
At last, only the new boss of the club and the mysterious girl was left in the hall.
Luo Qiu and Su Zijun.
