Celestial Masters Alliance

"Huang Xiao!"

Those two simple words made me jump out of bed like an electric shock. From the last time we said goodbye to today, we haven't contacted each other for almost a year.

When I called him, I always turned off my phone. When I sent him messages, he never responded. When I called my second aunt, I occasionally mentioned Huang Xiao, but my second aunt always said that he was busy and didn't come back.

It's so surprising that this guy appeared out of nowhere. Maomao heard my movement and hid by the door and poked his head around. I waved to him, but he hesitated and stood there without moving.

When Xiaosi saw that I didn't respond for a long time, he covered his mouth and asked softly: "How about I send him away?"

"No, no! I'll go down right away and ask him to wait for me." After saying that, I hung up the phone and quickly put on my clothes. Xiaoba had already gone to work, and the shoes at the door were kicked into a mess. Maomao came over and rubbed my legs. I had to sigh and change the food for the two little guys before hurried downstairs.

I called Mu Mu while I was walking. He said that Huang Xiao was acting strange and that he must inform him immediately once he got in touch with me.

After the phone rang a few times and went to voicemail, I remembered that he had sent me a message yesterday saying that he was going on a mission and would contact me when he got back. I had no choice but to leave a message to him: Huang Xiao is here to find me!

Back in the store, Xiaosi came to greet me and pointed to the quarantine area. I looked past Xiaosi's skinny body and saw a man standing upright in front of the iron cage in the quarantine area, looking at the animals inside in a trance.

On a hot day, he also wore a dark hooded sweatshirt and dark leggings tucked into heavy Martin boots. This was originally the most low-key look, but it was particularly conspicuous in the unseasonable season.

I walked towards the isolation area, and the sound of footsteps disturbed him. He turned towards me. Before our eyes met, his eyes were intertwined with several different emotions, changing rapidly, and finally hesitant joy remained. The corners of his mouth also rose with the affirmation of this emotion.

He was tanned a lot, and his hair was cut into a round shape, and his whole aura revealed toughness and determination.

"Why didn't you call me when you came so I could pick you up?" I used words to cover up my confusion at this moment. I didn't understand why seeing Huang Xiao was not as natural as meeting Mu Mu. I stretched out my hand socially, but fortunately I reacted in time and turned the action into a shoulder hug. I don’t know if he noticed it.

"I came here just on the spur of the moment, so I didn't dare to trouble you." His eyes suddenly turned to testing when he looked at me, and his words were also cautious.

"Why are you standing here? Come and sit!" I led him towards the consultation room. Only then did I realize there was a backpack on the chair at the door of the clinic. It probably belonged to Huang Xiao. I opened the door of the consulting room and called to Xiaosi: "Make two cups of tea."

Xiao Si responded, and I took the lead into the consultation room. I opened the computer chair next to the table and guided Huang Xiao to sit down: "Are you traveling here?"

Huang Xiao carried the backpack at the door and put it on the ground, pulled up a chair and sat across from me: "Well! It's holiday, and I made an appointment with a few friends to go sailing together. I thought you were nearby, so I wanted to see if you wanted to go out for a walk together. "Xiaosi brought tea and put it on the table. Huang Xiao thanked him and continued: "Last time we said goodbye in a hurry. We haven't seen each other in so many years and we didn't talk deeply. I thought we could go to sea together..."

Xiao Si heard our conversation, turned around and looked at me with a complaining look before walking out the door. I had no choice but to refuse: "As you can see, there are only three people in my store. If anyone asks for leave, the other two people will be busy. Let's forget it!"

Huang Xiao lowered her eyelids and looked at the water droplets condensed on the paper cup. She was a little disappointed and her voice was much lower: "Zhu Mo, it's really rare for us to meet each other. Either you are busy or I am busy. The friendship we had when we were young. When you grow up, you can’t find them all, and it’s so lonely when you grow up.”

These words seemed to be spoken to me, but also to himself. I began to waver: "Can you stay here for a few more days, and I will take you to play around here?"

Huang Xiao shook his head and sighed softly: "My friend's boat will leave tomorrow. I have to meet them today!" After saying that, he stood up and picked up the backpack on the ground. I was startled and stood up. She grabbed his arm, but she didn't know what to say.

"Take care of yourself!" Huang Xiao glanced at me, smiled bitterly, showing his two pointed front teeth, and then shook off my hand.

My mind flashed back to what he asked me on the basketball court: "Zhu Mo, are we brothers?" At that time, I answered him in front of the wood: "Of course, we broke the bones and still connected the tendons!"

"Wait!" I grabbed Huang Xiao again, "I'm going to talk to the clerks!" The words slipped out of my mouth without even passing through my brain. As soon as I finished speaking, I began to regret it.

"Okay!" Huang Xiao replied with a relaxed expression and a low smile.

It was so sudden, so sudden. Huang Xiao's appearance and Huang Xiao's sudden proposal to go to sea with me, and to set off immediately, gave me no room to think about it.

Xiaosi was sitting at the door fighting the landlord. When he saw me coming, he stood up and looked behind me without saying a word.

"I'm going to trouble you again." I pretended to be relaxed and took the phone from Xiaosi's hand, looked at it, turned off the Landlord game, and then handed it to him. He wasn't angry either, he just stared at me quietly.

"I'm going out with him for a few days. You and my good aunt should take a good look at the store. Don't sit at the door and play games!"

Xiao Si frowned and glanced at Huang Xiao, nodded, then sat back on the chair and looked out the door.

Seeing that he was unhappy, I put my hand on his shoulder and said, "Will I give you a salary increase later?"

Xiao Si still looked out the door and muttered: "As soon as you go out, you will come back with injuries. Can you come back after you go out this time?"

I squeezed him hard and said teasingly: "If I don't come back, won't you be the boss?"

Xiao Si rolled his eyes at me and said: "I can't be the boss, this store still depends on you. So you'd better come back safely as soon as possible, otherwise I will destroy this place!"

Hearing what he said, my heart suddenly warmed up. I let go of his hand and rubbed it: "I don't blame you if I lose. I will be back as soon as possible. Don't worry!"

Seeing that Xiaosi didn't respond, I called to Huang Xiao and said, "My house is right across the street. I have to pack my things. Come! Come with me to your house and have a look!"

Huang Xiao politely greeted Xiao Si before following me out of the store.

After crossing the road, Huang Xiao stood still at a distance, his body tense and alert, as if I was not taking him to visit my residence at this moment, but taking him into a heavy siege.

"Come here..." I waved my head to him, thinking he looked funny.

He was still standing at the end of the zebra crossing, with his hands in his sweatshirt pockets. He glanced at the store on the roadside and said, "I'll wait for you there and buy something on the way."

"What?" This person invited me to travel to the sea, but refused to visit the place where I live? What logic?

Huang Xiao walked closer to me, amplified his voice and slowed down his speaking speed, as if he was reasoning with an unreasonable person: "My legs and feet are a bit inconvenient and I can't go up the stairs, so I'd better wait for you here! Also!" , I need to find a pharmacy and prepare some seasickness medicine."

Only then did I notice that Huang Xiao's movements were a bit stiff when walking, and his knees seemed to be unable to bend. I approached Huang Xiao and asked, "You are seasick and still go to sea? What's wrong with your legs?"

He pursed his lips and said, "You've never been on a boat before, so be prepared!" After saying that, he lowered his head slightly, trying to avoid the situation. Seeing me staring at his legs, he could only sigh softly: "It's okay. ! Slightly injured! By the way, do you still have the jade lock that opened the tree hole last time?"
