"Uncle Ji, good morning!"
"Mr. Gu, good morning."
Ji Shugao smiled and responded to his greeting politely and gracefully.
"Uncle Ji, welcome to join our big family, we have specially prepared bath water for you."
Su Mo and Wang Xiaoyan were busy cleaning up the chickens, ducks and geese in the space, and the task of arranging Ji Shugao's bath fell on Gu Jinzhou. It happened that they were all men, so it was most suitable.
Su Mo specifically told him that he must make him feel the warmth of home, and Gu Jinzhou put a lot of thought into this.
He carefully selected a new bathtub of suitable size in Su Mo Space and filled it with the crystal-clear space stream water.
The temperature is just right, neither hot nor cold, just like a gentle hug.
“When in town, do as the Romans do; when in town, do as the Romans do.”
Ji Shugao kept muttering to himself. This was the first time he saw someone putting a bathtub in the living room.
Under Gu Jinzhou's passionate gaze, he could only take off his clothes, revealing his SpongeBob SquarePants pants with holes in them.
"Uncle Ji, we are all men, there is nothing to be embarrassed about."
Gu Jinzhou looked at him with a smile on his face, with no intention of carrying it on his back. He even took out a bath towel with a plastic seal bag in it from his pocket.
The space water was like magical washing liquid, floating with shimmer. The moment Ji Shugao stepped into the bathtub, the soft and warm water flow tightly wrapped his body like a shy and gentle kiss.
The initial awkwardness and strangeness were melted by the leisurely comfort, and the body and mind seemed to be suspended in a weightless soft ocean.
Soon after, he felt a subtle force begin to flow into his body, like water brushing gently but firmly over his skin and then penetrating into every pore. It felt strange and unfamiliar, yet so natural.
As time passed, he began to feel that something was wrong in his body, and an inexplicable heaviness poured into his heart.
The warm water slowly darkened, revealing a hint of black, and then gradually turned into an unpleasant stench.
Ji Shugao was surprised by this change and wanted to struggle away, but his body became extremely heavy, as if he was tightly bound by some invisible force and could not move. Eventually he fainted from exhaustion.
The originally warm and clear water became turbid, dark, and dull, as if it was an evil breath emanating from the depths of the universe.
A strong stench filled the water, constantly emitting an unbearable pungent smell, like a mixture of rot and chaos.
The bath was not successful because the water was too disgusting. Gu Jinzhou felt dizzy. The stench filled his nasal cavity, making his mind begin to become dull and his thinking gradually became chaotic.
When he tried to breathe, he only felt blocked and heavy. Every breath seemed to be filled with poisonous gas, causing him to gradually lose consciousness.
When Su Mo finally came out of the space after being half-dead from exhaustion, she saw two fainted adult men, which shocked her young heart.
About an hour later, Ji Shugao woke up first.
After a good night's rest, he took a refreshing hot bath in the morning and put on a set of brand new and clean clothes prepared by Wang Xiaoyan.
The haggard face of the past seemed to turn into ashes as the fatigue faded away, and now he showed a handsome and calm temperament.
As he walked, he walked steadily and his demeanor exuded confidence and elegance.
"Uncle Ji, you woke up just in time. Come clean the house quickly."
All the animals on the 27th floor were put into the space, and the living room finally became wider, but debris was still left on the floor.
The floor was strewn with straw, dung, and feathers, and every corner of the living room was occupied by these remnants.
The room was filled with an unpleasant odor, there were some splash stains on the walls, and the simple furniture was also covered with stains and debris.
Last night, it was still filled with the noise of various animals. However, this morning, all the animals miraculously disappeared, replaced by silence.
Ji Shugao's eyes widened when he saw this scene, and his shocked expression could not be concealed.
Although he was full of questions, he knew that curiosity killed the cat, so he didn't ask any questions and just silently accepted the sight that appeared in front of him.
Ji Shugao was not shocked for long. He resolutely picked up the broom and mop and began to clean up the messy living room.
As the apocalypse continues, the collapse of world order and the scarcity of supplies make people gradually feel desperate.
Everyone was in the queue to buy for 0 yuan. In order to grab more supplies, Zhao Weiguo discussed with everyone and decided to set out before dawn to try to occupy the best resource points.
At dawn, they set off in a hurry.
Everyone's face is filled with heaviness and anxiety, because every trip may mean being separated from their family members.
As usual, Zhang Xin would get up after the troops left, prepare a hearty breakfast as much as possible, and send it to Jiang Kai.
She glanced at the closed door opposite and patted it gently.
"Brother Jiang, can I come in?"
After getting a positive answer from the door, Zhang Xin opened the door.
Jiang Kai was lying on the bed, his face pale and his forehead soaked with sweat. One of his legs was wrapped in a thick bandage, and there was still a dull pain in the wound.
Zhang Xin sat carefully on the edge of his bed, her delicate fingers gently touching his injured calf.
The touch of skin felt like a gentle warmth spreading across his body.
She gently wiped away the dirt around the wound, her movements filled with warmth and care.
"Brother Jiang, are you hungry?"
She thoughtfully cooked a bowl of hot porridge, and the rich aroma spread in the room.
"I'm already hungry, but I accidentally bruised my right hand last night. Xiaoxin, can you feed me something to drink?"
Jiang Kai half sat on the bed, frowning slightly, pretending to be injured in his arm.
Zhang Xin stared at his arm without any scratches, and there seemed to be a hint of awareness in her eyes.
She smiled and nodded, not exposing his lie.
"Be careful."
Zhang Xin blew the hot air from the bowl carefully and put spoonful after spoonful into his mouth.
"Xiaoxin, you are so considerate. Whoever marries you is truly a blessing from his past life."
On the surface, Jiang Kai behaved as usual, pretending to be touched by her, but in his heart he sneered at Zhang Xin's care.
"Brother Jiang, please stop laughing at me. Who else could want me like this?"
"Who said no one wants you? When did you want to get married? I was the first to sign up."
"Disgusting~"
Zhang Xin gently hammered his shoulder with her hand, followed by a soft laugh.
"oops!"
Jiang Kai grabbed her hand, pretended to be hurt, and suddenly leaned back.
The two lost their balance instantly, and Zhang Xin fell into his arms without a doubt.
She was startled by Jiang Kai's sudden movement and glared at him angrily.
"You're a big liar, you're teasing me on purpose!"
A hint of shyness appeared on Zhang Xin's face, and then she broke away from his hand and ran out of the room shyly.
Jiang Kai looked at her fleeing back with contempt in his eyes.
"Women are really easy to deceive, but it's a pity that this bastard Liu Dayong took the opportunity."
The 5th floor is busy talking about love, compared to the 27th floor, it is much harder.
They were overwhelmed by the size and clutter of the house. Even after hours of hard work, they couldn't completely clean up the chaotic living room.
"How about this? There's no one to live in anyway. I really can't deal with it anymore."
After being busy all morning, not only having to tidy up the space but also taking care of the house, Su Mo couldn't stand it anymore, so she just smashed it and lay on the ground with her arms stretched out. She even hoped that she was the one who was fainted now.
