In the end, Annie stayed.
Lin Jiu did not know if it was on purpose, but he actually placed Annie in the room next to Lin Xiao's. In Lin Jiu's words, even if there was really danger, Lin Xiao would be able to react immediately to save her.
Annie was quite satisfied with this arrangement, but Lin Xiao was not.
What did he mean? Uncle Ying, oh Uncle Ying, although you are sometimes quite funny in the movies, we can't change to being a pimp, right?
Especially at night, Annie would lie against the wall and keep muttering. Almost every word she said could not be separated from Lin Xiao. If it was not for Lin Xiao's strong self-control, he would have beaten her up long ago.
The western zombie was injured, but nothing happened that night.
The next morning, Lin Xiao, who had been tormented for most of the night, walked out with a pair of panda eyes. He looked at the tightly shut door beside him and sighed helplessly.
It wasn't that he didn't understand Annie's thoughts, but he really couldn't promise her anything right now. After all, he really didn't have any feelings for Annie. He didn't even have the intention of being friends with benefits. How could he respond? Sigh, forget it. I don't want to think about it anymore. I'll sleep.
Suddenly, there was a loud clanging sound, followed by a group of people carrying a large pile of things into the mortuary's main door, followed by more than a dozen people with greasy faces.
These people were the wealthy merchants of Jiuquan Town. Looking at the materials carried by the workers, were these people preparing to demolish the memorial hall and rebuild it?
The loud noise woke Lin Jiu and the others up. When they came out, they were dumbfounded.
"Ninth Uncle, Priest Lin, good morning!”A wealthy businessman in his forties walked over and cupped his fists with a smile.
" Mr. Li?" Lin Jiu was stunned for a moment." Mr. Li, you're here to prepare…?"”
"Oh, it's nothing. We just felt that the mortuary was a little dilapidated, so we discussed it and relocated Ninth Uncle and Priest Lin. Don't worry, Ninth Uncle and Priest Lin, we won't disturb you.”
Lin Jiu opened his mouth and looked at Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao helplessly shrugged his shoulders. He really did not want to pay attention to these wealthy businessmen's sh * tty nature. They were just following the wind and fawning over foreign things. It was their good fortune that they did not die yesterday. Even if they died, it would be useless.
However, as the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling person. Now that the other party was begging him, what could he do?
"Wow, are you building a new home for us?”Qiu Sheng ran to the front of the workers excitedly. He looked at the materials and almost drooled.
Wen Cai was also very excited." I can finally live in a new house in the future. That's great! I want the biggest room!"”
Pa!
Qiu Sheng patted the back of Wen Cai's head in annoyance.""You idiot, you live in the biggest one, but where do Master and Uncle-Master live?”
"That's true. Then I'll stay in the third largest one!”
"What about me? Where did you put me? What's wrong? They hadn't seen each other for a while, and they were preparing to rebel?”Qiu Sheng rolled up his sleeves as he spoke, scaring Wen Cai into fleeing in a hurry. He looked at Qiu Sheng pitifully.
Seeing his two disciples being so embarrassed, Lin Jiu was about to explode with anger.""You two brats, get in there and cook. Don't you have to eat in the morning?”
Swoosh ~ Qiu Shengwen and Cai Yi instantly disappeared from their original spot. These two fellows didn't learn anything else, but their ability to adapt to the wind was extremely proficient.
At this moment, Annie finally finished packing and walked out. When she saw the people in front of her, she was stunned."Daddy? Why are you here? What are they doing?"
When Mr. Li saw Annie, his eyes lit up."Annie, I saw that Ninth Uncle's place is a little dilapidated, so I contacted your uncles and prepared to rebuild it.”
As he spoke, he kept winking at Annie.
Annie didn't even need to think to know what these people were thinking. Weren't they afraid because the zombies ran out last night?
"Cough cough ~ There's no need to repair the mortuary. We live quite comfortably here. Moreover, there are many things here that you can't do at all, so you can go back!”
Seeing that Annie was about to speak, Lin Jiu immediately rejected her.
"..." Annie's words were stuck in her throat. It was a pity that she didn't bleed internally.
Then, she looked at Lin Xiao, hoping that he would help. However, Lin Xiao could not even run away in time. How could he help?
Therefore, he simply waved his hand." Well, Senior Brother, the zombie ran away last night. It will definitely come back. To be safe, I'd better go outside and look for it first. Maybe I'll find it during the day?" Isn't that right?"
After he finished speaking, he left the mortuary in a hurry without waiting for Lin Jiu's reply. Annie, who was watching from behind, stomped her feet. This straight man, a bastard who was destined to live alone, was really infuriating.
Lin Xiao finally let out a sigh of relief when he finally ran out of the mortuary. In his previous life, he was not good at socializing, and this life was no exception. If he had the time, he might as well come out and enjoy the beautiful scenery of this era. Even if he could not see any scenery, it was still not bad to see people...
