Elliot and the Unforeseen Friendship Chapter 7

Avery Shan finished studying and the clock struck one in the morning. Elliot Gu was still in high spirits and had no intention of going to sleep. But the good student had been busy all day and his eyelids were already fighting.

Elliot Gu didn't need to take a shower, so she lay down after Avery Shan went to the bathroom. As soon as he covered himself with the quilt, he thought of a more difficult problem.

He just generously promised to let someone stay overnight, but where would such a tall child sleep in this small room that looked like a chicken coop?!

Elliot Gu stretched her neck. There were a lot of things piled on the sofa in the living room. Although he would tidy up the things on it every day since Avery Shan came, it still took up a lot of space.

Let him sleep in the same bed with me?

It's not impossible.

He had no intention of doing anything illegal to his little prince yet. But... Elliot Gu moved his left arm. He only had one quilt.

The sound of water in the toilet stopped, and Elliot Gu stretched her back and lay straight on the bed.

He was inexplicably nervous.

The bathroom door opened and he heard footsteps approaching the bed.

Um?

Elliot Gu raised her neck slightly, and a noble body wrapped only in a bath towel came into view.

Elliot Gu herself is not dark-skinned, but Dan Qingze is really too dazzling.

grass!

There was a blur of white in front of her eyes, and Elliot Gu almost bit her tongue.

"Why are you so white?!" he couldn't help but ask.

Avery Shan was stunned by his question, and his fair face seemed to still have the heat from steaming, making it slightly red.

Elliot Gu quickly scanned his eyes vertically from his dripping stubble to his toes. Every time her eyes stopped at a place, they jumped. Even an MRI scan had never been so detailed!

"that......"

The towel was too short, and he could clearly see the dislocation of the anterior rectus muscle and quadriceps muscle.

Elliot Gu didn't know whether this boy saw her swallowing her saliva.

but......

"Well..." the muscle owner was talking, "I didn't bring any clothes..."

Elliot Gu quickly fell on the pillow, tilted her head back to avoid nosebleed, and mumbled hesitantly: "There are clothes in the closet, wear whatever you want."

The person in front of the bed seemed to pause for a moment, and then he heard a sweet "oh".

Elliot Gu actually didn’t have many clothes, so this might be the reason why Avery Shan had been squatting in his closet for a long time without straightening up.

The edge of the bed sank a little, and it was an odd feeling, like the uneasy commotion before a young couple's night out.

Elliot Gu wanted to turn over, but she couldn't move, so she could only continue lying straight.

The edge of the bed bounced up and a white bath towel was thrown beside his calves.

Elliot Gu felt that his good leg seemed to be sealed as well.

The edge of the bed sank again.

Someone next to me whispered, "It seems a little small."

Elliot Gu blinked her eyes. Any of his clothes would be too small for Dan Qingze.

Avery Shan didn't seem to rummage through his closet. He just glanced at it quietly and took it directly.

The closet door closed, and a figure wearing a well-worn T-shirt appeared in his sight.

Elliot Gu frowned: "Why are you wearing this? The one hanging next to it is new, you should wear it. Oh no! It's too cold to sleep in a T-shirt now, at least wear a cotton sweater."

Avery Shan was stunned for a moment, and repeated the key words in his words: "Cotton sweater?"

In fact, Elliot Gu also discovered during this period that Dan Qingze didn't seem to be afraid of the cold, probably because he was young and in good health, so she didn't force him to wear her old and pilling cotton sweater.

"Forget it, you don't have to wear it, but you should change into that new T-shirt. I've worn this one for many years." He remembered that there seemed to be a hole under his armpit, which was so shabby.

But Dan Qingze just smiled and didn't intend to change it. He picked up the towel at his feet and walked to the living room: "It's okay, the old one is comfortable."

Elliot Gu didn't say anything else, watching the tall figure squeezed into his old T-shirt and turned into the bathroom on the side.

At this time, Elliot Gu realized that Avery Shan did not take his pants. Or rather, he only took a small piece.

His old T-shirt was too small to begin with, and the tight sheets stretched his body, leaving his body clearly visible from the waist down.

Upright, slender, turned around...

"Cough~" Elliot Gu coughed.

Spectacular.

Elliot Gu sighed and stared at the ceiling in a daze.

The hairdryer hummed.

The room temperature rose to 18 degrees, and Elliot Gu also felt a little warmer. It's still comfortable to turn on the air conditioner~

In fact, the T-shirt hanging next to it was not bought this year. For Elliot Gu, new clothes mean those that have been worn for less than two years, while old clothes are really old.

He never pursued clothes, as long as he had something to wear. But just at that moment, he suddenly realized that the life of poor children was indeed not easy. Avery Shan must have been accustomed to this kind of life, so that he did not feel embarrassed because of poverty under his good-looking face.

It was good. It was comfortable to be with Avery Shan, and he could be himself without hesitation.

I don't know when the sound of the hair dryer stopped. Elliot Gu waited on the bed for a long time, but the expected handsome and fragrant guy did not appear.

Um?

The pupa on the bed stretched its neck again.

There was a ball of stuff curled up on the short three-seater sofa in the living room, with its head resting on the armrest that had been scratched by the landlord's cat, and its body covered with the golden dragon robe that he was wearing when he first met him.

Elliot Gu's eyes widened in an instant.

"Avery Shan!" he shouted.

In the cold and silent winter night, the sound was so loud that everyone in the living room jumped up from the sofa immediately.

Avery Shan rushed into the bedroom, his messy hair standing up, and looked at him nervously: "What's wrong?"

Elliot Gu's face was calm, even a little depressed. He patted the place beside him with his left hand, which was still able to move, and said coldly: "Come to bed."

Avery Shan stared at him, without moving or saying a word.

Elliot Gu sighed: "Come to bed. You are a prince, you can't sleep in the living room."

Avery Shan chuckled.

"Why am I a prince?" he asked slowly as he lifted the quilt and lay down.

Elliot Gu turned her face away from him and said, "You are handsome, you cook delicious food, you study well, and you love life and animals. Is this a sufficient reason?"

Avery Shan chuckled twice, and Elliot Gu's ears felt itchy.

"How do you know I love life?"

Elliot Gu was silent for a while, and then she replied: "I am a veteran in the underworld, and I can tell at a glance that you youngsters are like that."

The pillow beside him moved, and Elliot Gu felt that Avery Shan was looking at him.

The gaze in the middle of the night seemed to be real. Elliot Gu felt that the half of her face close to Avery Shan was burning under his gaze.

"As far as I know, you are only a few years older than me." The person next to me said quietly.

Elliot Gu was hallucinating because he was too close to her. Avery Shan's words seemed to be spoken right into his ear. The book says that young people have hot livers, and this heat irritated the old man in his fifties.

Elliot Gu's throat was itchy, and he wanted to swallow a mouthful of saliva, but he was afraid that the other party would see his nervousness, so he could only endure it. His heart was pounding.

Avery Shan's voice became the same low voice as that night.

Elliot Gu felt more energetic, and Avery Shan didn't seem to plan to go to sleep right away.

Elliot Gu became even more nervous.

"You slept with me. I haven't showered in days. The bed and I must be smelly."

Although he knew that Avery Shan was as poor as himself, through his observations over the past few days, he found that Avery Shan loved cleanliness very much. Although he wore a rider's uniform every day, his rider's uniform was always very clean. He didn't look dusty like other delivery boys. Elliot Gu was curious about the fabric of the rider's uniform, so he took a closer look. He found that Avery Shan's rider's uniform was also fragrant, and it was straight and without any wrinkles. So he concluded that the fabric should be good, and it was super dust-proof and wrinkle-proof.

"No, it doesn't stink." Avery Shan said softly, "You smell good."

As soon as these words came out, both of them were stunned.

"Uh..." Avery Shan moved his body, "I mean... Liushen Flower Dew Water."

Elliot Gu said "Oh", not knowing whether she was disappointed or relieved.

"I don't smell good. You smell good." Elliot Gu tried to make amends, "I'm serious! I've been wanting to ask you for a long time, why do you smell so good? Also, I noticed that you wear a different sweater every time you come. Do you have a lot of sweaters? One of each color?"

Avery Shan pinched his palms under the quilt, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

Elliot Gu beside him was quiet for a moment, as if waiting for his answer, but he was silent for a while, and then Elliot Gu spoke again: "Oh~ I see, you didn't open a Taobao store yourself! Then you bought a lot of sweaters and didn't sell them, so you wore them yourself? Hahahaha~~~~"

Elliot Gu was grinning foolishly at the ceiling. Avery Shan looked at him from the side and felt that he didn't seem to be really asking him, but just looking for interesting answers in his own brain.

"Yeah, that's it," he echoed.

"Ah?!" Elliot Gu turned around in surprise, "Is it true?"

For a moment, the two pairs of eyes met.

Avery Shan's eyes were deep, like two high-quality gems in the light moonlight coming through the window.

Elliot Gu's voice stopped abruptly, and Avery Shan did not answer him again.

The only sound in the midnight air was the lonely hum of the air conditioner.

Avery Shan...really good looking.

At that moment, Elliot Gu suddenly understood what it meant to have a glance that lasts for a thousand years as written in the book.

He used to not understand what it was like to be obsessed with another person. There are many life-and-death plots in love in the world, and when he watched the movie, he just thought those eyes were ridiculous. In the final analysis, his conclusion is: the love in the movie is because the hero and heroine do not have to work hard for life. They have money and will not worry about whether to turn on the air conditioner tonight. Love is a luxury in life. Money is a necessity in life. And a poor guy like him, I am afraid that love will also take a detour when it comes to it.

However, at this moment, Elliot Gu was somewhat affected by the scene in front of him. Avery Shan was looking at him, staring at him intently. This reminded him of the moment when the male and female protagonists in those love movies wanted to K!ss each other.

Would Avery Shan want to K!ss him?

With one ear pressed down by his tilted face, Elliot Gu could clearly hear his own heartbeat like a drum.

Avery Shan didn't say anything, nor did he make any other expression. Elliot Gu's brain, which could distinguish old porcelain pieces from past dynasties at a glance, now seemed to be out of service.

He really didn't know what Avery Shan was thinking, but he knew clearly that at this moment he really wanted to K!ss the person in front of him.

He inexplicably moved forward a centimeter.

Avery Shan didn't move.

He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he felt that in the dark night, Avery Shan's gaze seemed to fall on his lips.

He moved another centimeter closer.

The midnight air was flowing, the cold wind coming in through the window gaps and the hot air from the air conditioner were intertwined unharmoniously.

With a "whoosh" sound, the air conditioner on the wall stopped breathing.

Elliot Gu's burning heart suddenly calmed down, and a rational message popped up in her mind like an alarm flashing: He didn't brush his teeth tonight!

"Ahem~" Elliot Gu cleared her throat and quickly turned her face back.

"In the future..." His throat was stiff, "Save some money. If those clothes can't be sold, just sell them slowly. There is no time limit for opening a Taobao store. Don't think about wearing them all yourself. Those clothes of yours seem to be of good quality, and they must not be cheap to buy! Don't mess around! Money is needed everywhere in this world, and it will be very expensive to marry a wife in the future!"

Elliot Gu talked nonsense for a while, and after she finished speaking, she felt like she was sick!

Did someone ask you? People who take advantage of their age are annoying, you know?!

He closed his eyes and frowned in the darkness.

Avery Shan really didn't say anything, but sighed inaudibly, then turned his head and lay flat. After a while, a faint "got it" sounded from the other side.

Elliot Gu felt that Avery Shan was a little unhappy, but she didn't know why. Maybe she did say too much, so she should stop meddling in other people's business. She was young, so she had to hold her self-esteem in her hands.

Hey~~~~~

Elliot Gu closed her eyes, and the romantic movie scenes scattered in the void and turned into bills flying all over the sky.

You’d better find a way to make money. Love and the like are really not suitable for poor people!
