Chapter 59 They Figh (1/2)

Everyone can see there is something wrong. Actually, when on the phone, Li Baoer is aware that her classmate is impatient with her. Anyway, she just wants to have several days of accommodation. She will move out once she finds a job. So, she doesn’t care too much.

They stop outside the house. Xia Ning thinks for a while and says, “Colonel Dai, Lin, you don’t need to come in. Please stay here and wait for us.”

Dai Zhongheng nods, “OK.”

Dai Zhongheng goes back to the car with Lin Kai.

Li Baoer looks at Dai Zhongheng’s back. She looks sad.

Xia Ning sees all of Li Baoer’s moves. She pats her and says, “Baoer, do you have a crush on Colonel Dai?”

Not expecting that Xia Ning will ask frankly, Li Baoer widens her eyes, “I, I…don’t!” She turns and knocks at the door, “Hello? Anybody in? I am Li Baoer. Is Xiaofang at home?”

They knock at the door for quite a while and at last a lazy response is heard, “Coming…who is that, in such an early morning.”

Li Baoer looks at the watch, it is past eleven. Is it still too early?

“Xiaofang, it is me, Li Baoer. Please open the door.”

The door is opened and a thin woman walks out. She looks sleepy with messy hairs. She glances at Xia Ning and Li Baoer and yawns, “You are here. Didn’t you say it is only you? Now, why do you two come?”

“She is my friend. She takes me here. She will not stay.” Li Baoer explains.

“Come in.” Xiaofang goes back to the house and throws herself to the sofa to continue the sleep.

Li Baoer and Xia Ning glance at each other. Xia Ning helps Li Baoer to move the luggage inside the house.

The house is in a mess. Rubbish of used and half eaten stuff is not cleaned up and gives out bad smells. Xia Ning and Li Baoer frown.

“Do you live alone?” Li Baoer asks.

“With someone else.” Xiaofang responds lazily, “Hey, someone comes. Don’t sleep. Come down to help me clean up the things.”

After another while, someone upstairs is heard. The door is opened and a man walks out. He is so thin that as if a gust of wind will blow him away. He is putting on his clothes, which are too dirty to tell if they are ever washed.”

“Coming.” The man responds impatiently and walks downstairs. When he sees Xia Ning and Li Baoer, he widens his eyes.

“Fang, are they your friends?” The man goes downstairs quickly and pushes Xiaofang, who is lying on the sofa like a dead dog.

“Hum.” Xiaofang points to Li Baoer, “This is Li Baoer. I don’t know the other.”

“That is my friend Xia Ning.” Li Baoer continues, “I will stay here to bother you for several days.”

“OK. OK.” The thin man sits down. He looks at Li Baoer from head to toe rudely and smiles, “Does Miss Li have a boyfriend? Are you here alone?”

The looking is disgusting. Li Baoer smiles reluctantly, “No. I don’t have a boyfriend. I just arrive in C city and will stay here for several days.”

“It is OK. No matter how many days, it is OK.” Saying this, the thin man glances at Li Baoer’s luggage, “Is this your luggage?”

Li Baoer nods.
