Monster Reserve Food became my husband

Chapter 12

"Are you alright?" Xiao Zhuo asked with concern, holding the cardboard box with ease.

The young man still hadn't reacted, took a deep breath, looked at Xiao Zhuo with a grateful face and said, "It's okay, thank you."

Xiao Zhuo shook his head, indicating that it was all right, and seeing the young man almost collapsed from exhaustion, he took the initiative and said, "Let me help you get into the elevator."

The young man felt embarrassed and wanted to refuse at first, but Xiao Zhuo lifted the heavy cardboard box easily and without any pressure, so he could only follow along.

The cardboard box was very, very heavy. The young man looked at Xiao Zhuo who was walking like flying in surprise. He didn't expect that this person looked thinner than him and had such great strength.

When walking towards the elevator, Xiao Zhuo asked casually: "What's in it?"

The young man smiled and said, "I'm a cartoonist, and the contents here are all newly published comic books that need to be signed, so they are very heavy. If it weren't for your help, I would be in a bit of trouble."

Xiao Zhuo nodded, half understanding, not quite understanding what a cartoonist does.

He moved the cardboard box into the elevator, only then did the young man notice the takeaway in Xiao Zhuo's hand, and hurriedly said: "What a coincidence, I ordered this takeaway. I live in 1205, my name is Du Yong, and my phone number is xxxxxx. See if it's right, right?"

Xiao Zhuo glanced at the takeaway list, and found that it was indeed what Du Yong said.

"Give me the takeaway, and I'll take it up myself." Du Yong said with a smile: "This way you don't have to make an extra trip."

Xiao Zhuo nodded, it's good not to have to go all the way, so he handed the takeaway to Du Yong, bid him farewell, turned and left.

Back to the villa after get off work, Xiao Zhuo happened to meet Zheng Qing.

He greeted Zheng Qing and prepared to walk in, but he saw Zheng Qing frowning and stopped, looked at him from the beginning to the end, frowned slightly, and asked him: "What's the smell on you?"

"It's tasteless." Xiao Zhuo didn't think much about it, he just thought that Zheng Qing had a cleanliness attack.

Zheng Qing said with certainty: "Yes, it's a very faint evil spirit, and I can't smell what it is. It should be where you got it."

Xiao Zhuo was shocked immediately: "Why didn't I smell it?" He had never been in contact with a demon today, nor had he smelled a demonic aura.This shows that the evil spirit is very weak, and Zheng Qing's sense of smell is too sensitive.

Zheng Qing didn't say anything more: "The demonic aura is very weak, it should be just a little demon, nothing to be afraid of."

After he finished speaking, he walked into the hall of the villa first.

The night outside the room was dark, and the room was as bright as day.

Xiao Zhuo remembered that he hadn't told Zheng Qing about his job change, so he even took the opportunity to say: "By the way, I've changed jobs. The benefits of this job are very good now, and the salary is higher than before. The most important thing is , and also buy five social insurances and one housing fund. I heard from my colleagues that if you buy endowment insurance for 15 years, you can still receive wages when you reach retirement age without going to work. Isn’t that…”

Xiao Zhuo's wishful thinking was well planned, and he began to fantasize about his wonderful life of endless pensions.

"It's useless for a monster to buy pension insurance, and the Demon Management Bureau won't admit it." Zheng Qing easily punctured Xiao Zhuo's beautiful fantasy.

Xiao Zhuo: "..." The endowment insurance he bought with his ability, why can't he receive a pension?

"Where do you work now?"

Xiao Zhuo said wearily: "Jiayuan Hotel. There is also room and board included, and the food is very delicious, so I can save money on meals."

Zheng Qing was stunned when he heard the name of Jiayuan Hotel, but he reacted quickly, and Xiao Zhuo didn't see the clue.Then he changed the subject and asked, "Wrap?"

"..." Xiao Zhuo suddenly realized that he had slipped the tongue, and he couldn't help lying with a guilty conscience: "I wanted to move to the dormitory, but unfortunately the dormitory is full, so there is no way."

Zheng Qing raised his eyebrows slightly: "Really?"

Xiao Zhuo blinked, and nodded vigorously with a sincere face.

Zheng Qing looked at him, but didn't believe a word.Jiayuan Hotel is one of the properties under his name. Some time ago, it was reported that there were not many employees living in the dormitory, so how could it be full so quickly.

But why did Xiao Zhuo lie?Does he want to live with him so much?

After chatting with Zheng Qing that night, Xiao Zhuo felt sorry for the insurance premium, so he went to his superior the next day and asked if he could not buy the insurance and pay him the insurance premium as salary.After all, those human insurances are useless to him, and it is a waste of money, so it is better to pay more wages.It's just that his request was quickly rejected. Buying insurance is a national regulation, and it's impossible not to buy it.

Xiao Zhuo was very depressed for a few days because of this, listlessly unable to raise his spirits.

But work still has to continue, after all he is poor.

On this day, Xiao Zhuo came to Jinhua District again with a takeaway, and found that the customer of this order was very familiar, and it was Du Yong who he delivered last time.

Once you've been there, you're familiar with the route.Xiao Zhuo took the elevator to the twelfth floor, walked to the door of room 1205 and called Du Yong.

As soon as the phone rang, the door was pushed open.

Du Yong was wearing comfortable and casual home clothes, with messy hair on his head. He was stunned when he saw Xiao Zhuo, and then he quickly realized that he quickly took the takeaway, and then smiled enthusiastically: "I'm still thinking about it. It's you, what a coincidence. Come in and sit down, last time you helped me, I was so tired that I didn't invite you upstairs for a glass of water. "

Xiao Zhuo smiled, just about to refuse, but suddenly saw a white cat standing on the floor of the room.The cat was larger than ordinary cats, with white hair all over its body, not even a stray hair.It was originally lying lazily on the sofa, but when it saw Xiao Zhuo, it suddenly jumped off the sofa, and its beautiful blue pupils stared at Xiao Zhuo.

Xiao Zhuo suddenly changed his mind at that moment, and followed Du Yong into the living room without refusing.

After arriving at the living room, Du Yong asked Xiao Zhuo to sit down first, while he was busy making tea.

Xiao Zhuo sat down on the sofa and looked around for a few times.The living room is very simple, with a sofa, a coffee table, a TV, and a cat climbing frame in the corner. In addition, cat toys and beautiful cat litters of various materials can be seen everywhere in the living room.It can be seen that Du Yong is really kind to the cats, and he probably doesn't have as many things as the cats he raises.

When he was standing outside the door, the white cat didn't hide its hostility, now when he walked into the living room, the white cat's dangerous and aggressive eyes almost turned into reality, staring at Xiao Zhuo's body hair all exploded.

It was obvious that the white cat was hostile to him and did not welcome his presence at all.But Xiao Zhuo turned a blind eye to this, as if he didn't see it at all, he just observed the white cat with great interest, as if he found something very new and interesting.

"Xiaobai!" Du Yong came out with the brewed tea, and quickly scolded the white cat when he saw the appearance of the white cat.Then he said apologetically in bewilderment: "Xiaobai is usually very docile and doesn't care much about others. I don't know why the reaction is so big today. Don't be afraid, it won't attack people."

As he spoke, he knelt down and gently stroked the white cat's blown fur, and discussed gently: "Xiaobai, you can't be so rude to the guests, you know? If you are obedient, I will fry small fish for you Would you like to eat dry?"

The white cat let out a greedy "meow" for a moment, then put away its hostility unwillingly, and after Du Yong sat down on the sofa, it jumped onto the opponent's lap and found a comfortable position to lie down.

Even so, it still looks at Xiao Zhuo from time to time, the whole cat's face is full of hostility and distrust towards Xiao Zhuo.

Xiao Zhuo boasted nonchalantly: "Your cat is very beautiful."

Du Yong hugged the cat, tickled him and smiled: "Actually, when I first saw Xiaobai, he was ugly. It's all about fate. I just came out of the publishing house and saw the cat in front of me. Surrounded by a large group of people, I went over to look curiously. I didn’t expect it to be a bloody cat that was hit. Its hair was stained with mud and blood, all knotted, and its legs were crushed. I'm dying, almost dying. People around me say that it's impossible to save, and I'm not sure, but it's life, so I have to try anyway. I wrapped it in clothes and sent it to the pet hospital. Fortunately, Xiaobai's vitality Tenacious, I survived that kind of situation. I felt that I had a destiny with it, so I adopted it later.”

When he was talking about these past events, the white cat lying on his lap stood up and rubbed against Du Yong as if thanking him, and gently licked his hand.

Du Yong smiled: "I don't know if it's an illusion, I always feel that Xiaobai is different from other cats. It seems to be able to think and understand my words, so I don't treat it as a pet, but as a family member I grew up in an orphanage and had no family members, but after raising Xiaobai, I felt like I had more family members."

The white cat stared at Du Yong seriously, and those beautiful blue pupils revealed many complicated emotions.

Xiao Zhuo listened carefully, chatted with Du Yong for a few more words, then got up and prepared to leave without staying for a long time. After all, it was still working time, skipping work should not be too presumptuous.

Du Yong picked up the white cat and put it on the ground, got up and sent Xiao Zhuo to the door.

Xiao Zhuo walked to the door, stopped suddenly, turned to look at Du Yong and asked, "Have you heard the story of the eight-tailed cat?"

When he said these words, the white cat behind him suddenly tensed up and stood behind Du Yong, staring at Xiao Zhuo with a dangerous aura.

Du Yong looked bewildered, not knowing why Xiao Zhuo asked such a question, he shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it."

Xiao Zhuo glanced at the white cat lightly, and said slowly: "Everything in the world can cultivate spiritual wisdom, overcome catastrophe and become a god, and cats can naturally do it too. It is said that every 100 years, cats can cultivate an extra tail, and after 800 years , cats also have eight tails. If a cat cultivates nine tails, it can become a god, but the ninth tail is very difficult, because in order to cultivate nine tails, an eight-tailed cat must pass a difficult trial."

Du Yong was attracted by this story somehow: "What trial?"

"The eight-tailed cat must fulfill a human wish. When the wish is fulfilled, a new tail will grow, but as the price for fulfilling the wish, he will also lose a tail."

Du Yong was surprised: "Any wish can come true?"

"Yes. Money, wealth, fame and career, as long as you make a wish, all of these can come true."

Du Yong couldn't hide his doubts and said: "One more tail for fulfilling wishes, one less for wishing. Wouldn't it be impossible for cats with eight tails to grow nine tails forever?"

After all, human desires are endless.For example, he also has many wishes that he wants to realize.
