"Boss, I'll buy this one. I'll give you five yuan.”
Chen Xi seemed to have seen through my thoughts and immediately said the price I could offer.
The stall owner looked at me and I said," Boss, give me a discount!”
"Alright then, five yuan it is. Seeing that you're all students, it's not easy. I'll take it that I'm selling you at a loss!”
"Thank you, boss!"
Chen Xi said with a smile and took out a five-dollar bill from his pocket. Seeing this, I quickly rushed in front of her." This time... I'll pay!”
"No need. This is a gift from me. Remember to take good care of it. I will check it regularly!”After saying that, he handed over the five yuan in his hand.
The stall owner took the money and looked at Chen Xi and me. He couldn't help but smack his lips and say to me," Young man, you're so lucky to have a beautiful and sensible girlfriend. Why isn't my child as lucky as you?"”
I smiled awkwardly and took the cage. I didn't say anything, but my heart was already blooming with joy.
When we walked out of the flower and bird market, it was already nine o'clock in the evening. The sky was already dark, so we decided to go home.
"Young man, you have a bad omen!”
At this moment, I heard an old man's voice.
I followed the voice and saw a white-bearded old man in ragged clothes sitting on a small stool under the street lamp. In front of him was a piece of paper with four big words written on it: fortune-telling.
To be honest, if it wasn't for Chen Xi beside me, I really wanted to ask him properly. After all, I had indeed experienced a lot of strange things in the past few days.
But at this time, I could only brace myself and pretend not to hear. I didn't want Chen Xi to laugh at me for being superstitious. Of course, this was also influenced by my parents. Because of my grandfather, I had a prejudice against fortune-tellers since I was young.
"Young man, you can deceive others, but you can't deceive your own heart!”
"What is that person saying?" Chen Xi asked softly.
"Who knows? It's all just a trick. Who would still believe this now?”
"That's not necessarily true. There's a saying that existence is reasonable. Moreover, these are all things left behind by our ancestors!”
"Maybe!"
I pretended to be calm." Let's go. It's getting late. I…I'll send you home!”
"No need. My house is not far from here. You should go back early!”Chen Xi said.
"But…"
" What else do I want to say?" Chen Xi patted my shoulder." Don't worry, I'm very familiar with this place. Don't forget, I grew up here."”
"Alright then, be careful.”
"Okay, see you tomorrow!"
"See you tomorrow!"
Looking at Chen Xi's beautiful back, I felt inexplicably disappointed.
Even though tonight might be just an ordinary day for her, it already had epoch-making significance for me. At least I broke three firsts that I had maintained for 16 years: the first time I gave a girl something, the first time I ate alone with a girl, and the first time I went shopping with a girl.
As for Xiao Lei's warning, go to hell!
After watching Chen Xi walk away, I didn't rush back. Instead, I turned around to look for the fortune-teller. I wanted to know what he saw.
However, when I turned around, I realized that there was nothing under the street lamp. There was no fortune-telling old man.
"F * ck, I've really seen a ghost. It's only been a while, why did he suddenly disappear?”
Even though I didn't understand what was going on, I was already used to it after experiencing so many strange things.
After returning to the rented room, my originally happy mood became heavy again. What made me want to cry was that I realized that I couldn't find the key to my door!
"I must have come out in a hurry this morning and forgotten to bring it!”
I wanted to knock on the door, but when I thought of the cat's face that day, I cowered again.
After hesitating for a long time, I decided to park the car at the entrance and climb over the wall myself.
The wall of this courtyard wasn't very high. For an adult, a simple run-up was enough to reach the top with his hands. As I was relatively short, I tried several times before I managed to climb up.
After climbing up the wall, I found an empty space and jumped down. At this moment, the courtyard was completely dark. It seemed that the landlady had already fallen asleep. I could only rely on my memory and slowly grope my way to my room.
Pa!
I had only taken a few steps when I heard a thud from under my feet. I almost tripped. I looked down and saw that it was a small stool.
"Ouch!"
I kicked the stool angrily and continued to walk forward while enduring the pain.
"Young man, why are you back so late?”
I was so frightened that I saw someone standing in the middle of the courtyard.
"Grandma…Grandma, you're not asleep yet?”
The landlady didn't answer me. Instead, she continued," Don't come back so late in the future. It's dangerous outside!”
I grunted in response and quickly walked back to my room.
After returning to my room, I didn't even dare to turn on the lights before rolling onto the bed.
However, although she lay down, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Other than that night, there was no special change in the old landlady. Could it be that I really had a dream?
No, I must find out!
Thinking of this, I rolled down from the bed and quietly leaned against the window. I stared outside the courtyard. I wanted to see what the landlady wanted to do.
It was still dark outside. I couldn't see where the landlady was at all.
After staring at it for a few minutes, I found nothing and decided to give up.
Just as I was about to get back on the bed, I suddenly stepped on something and felt it.
I turned on the light and saw something. I almost fainted and fell to the ground.
I saw a pair of light green sandals by my feet!
Seeing this pair of sandals, I was at a loss. At this moment, I began to regret not listening to my parents and asking them to help me find a master to take a look.
However, so what if he found a master? Let's not talk about whether or not we can get rid of the female ghost. Just the cost alone is not something we can afford. You have to know that even a low-level woman like Aunt Liu has to pay a few hundred yuan to appear. In addition, she has to be served well. If we really find a master, I'm afraid it will start from a few thousand yuan. To my poor family, this is tantamount to selling everything.
In other words, no one can help me now. I can only rely on myself.
Since I'm sure I can't hide from this matter, I might as well face it calmly. The worst case scenario is death.
Thinking of this, my body was suddenly filled with power. I pointed at the green sandals and asked loudly," Little White Flower, what are you trying to do?”#
