Chapter 20 Not a Bomb
Lin Guzhi slept until noon before waking up.

In the apocalypse, he can sleep and wake up anytime and anywhere, not to mention coming back to this world.

Although he only slept for half a morning, the cozy environment and comfortable bed were enough to help him adjust his mental state.

When he woke up, he saw Xiaoxi sitting at the end of the bed playing with a bubble wand.

Xiaoxi cherishes this bubble wand very much. After she found that the transparent liquid inside was dripping too fast due to the constant waving of bubbles, she was reluctant to play with it anymore. There is still a lot of liquid left in it.

Lin Guzhi smiled and said, "Why don't you open it and play with it?"

Xiaoxi said, "I want to play slowly. I don't want to play too fast."

Lin Guzhi said: "It's okay, you can still drink detergent and blow bubbles after playing."

Xiaoxi blinked and didn't understand.

Lin Guzhi fortunately took Xiaoxi's hand and took Xiaoxi to the living room.

The aroma from the kitchen had already drifted into the living room. Xia Qing was cooking lunch in the kitchen, and the range hood was making a "buzzing" noise.

Lin Guzhi walked into the kitchen. Xia Qing saw him and said, "Are you awake? The meal is almost ready. Can I ask you for a favor?"

Lin Guzhi asked: "What?"

Xia Qing had cooked a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes. She was holding the handle of the frying pan with both hands and pouring the food into the plate. She said, "The trash can is almost full. Can you please empty it? There are two packages left at the gatehouse. It's not convenient for me to pick them up. Can you help me pick them up? The courier's name is Qingqing."

Lin Guzhi nodded and said, "Okay." After agreeing, he asked, "Do you have any extra pens?"

Xia Qing said, "I only have one, and it's on the table in my bedroom. You have to get it yourself."

Lin Guzhi said: "No, I just want to find a useless pen and use the pen tube."

He still remembers the toys he played with when he was a child. Although his family was not well off at the time, he never lacked fun things. Anything that was readily available could be made into a toy.

A discarded pen tube, a discarded cup, some detergent, and a cup of water can form a bubble blowing prop. He wanted to show Xiaoxi how to do it, so he asked Xia Qing.

He went to clean the trash can and went out with a bag of trash. Xiaoxi followed Lin Guzhi out of the door with a bubble wand in her hand.

"boom--"

The door is closed.

Xia Qing was preparing to fry another dish in the kitchen. She looked into the living room and muttered depressedly, "Am I so terrible? This Xiaoxi doesn't want to stay with me!"

She looked back at the frying pan and spatula in her hands, feeling unhappy again: "What am I doing? I'm being attentive and taking the initiative to cook! How come I'm acting like a housewife?!"

But after complaining, looking at the prepared ingredients on the chopping board, she could only sigh and continue working.

I have done what I have done, so I should be more kind. I just feel sorry for them...Good people will be rewarded...

She said this to herself in her heart.

After taking the elevator downstairs, Lin Guzhi threw the garbage in his hand into the trash can. He went to the convenience store at the door and bought a pen. When he reached the door of the convenience store, he bought a bubble stick.

I originally wanted to show Xiaoxi some other ways to play with bubbles, but since we were at a convenience store, I might as well buy a bubble wand and tell Xiaoxi that it was not expensive and there was no need to save it for him.

He had to let Xiaoxi get used to this place and understand that this place was different from the end of the world, and she didn't need to be reluctant to use any good things. Xiaoxi suddenly had another bubble stick in her hand. Although she didn't smile, her eyebrows were relaxed. Lin Guzhi could tell at a glance that the little girl was very happy. She followed behind Lin Guzhi with her thin legs, and her steps became much lighter.

After doing all this, Lin Guzhi went to the concierge to pick up the express delivery.

All the express parcels in this community are placed in the gatehouse. The gatehouse has a house next to it, which is used as a warehouse for the residents' parcels. The parcels are placed in different categories according to the different courier companies, and there is also a book for registration.

Although Lin Guzhi didn't ask Xia Qing what the express was, he found it in the notebook.

Xia Qing’s express delivery should have arrived not long ago. The record was at the very end of the notebook, but the name was not “Qingqing” as Xia Qing said. There was a three-character suffix at the end. The full name was “Qingqing little baby”.

It fits the woman's personality. She was too embarrassed to tell me her full username, wasn't she afraid that I would make a mistake and not be able to find it?
Lin Guzhi glanced at the registration book again and confirmed that there was no other "Qingqing" in the book except "Qingqing Little Baby". Then he went to the "Shun Da Express" area according to the registration in the book.

He quickly found the two packages labeled "Qingqing Baby" and took them home.

The two packages were boxed, not too big, but not too small. After taking them back, he saw that Xia Qing had already cooked another dish and was serving rice.

"The courier has been left at your door."

Lin Guzhi put down the package while Xiaoxi ran back to her bedroom with two bubble sticks in her arms and came out after putting them away.

Xia Qing said: "Don't put it down, just open it."

Lin Guzhi asked: "Is it okay for me to open it?"

"Just tear it down when I tell you to. Can't you see I'm busy?"

Xia Qing's voice seemed a little unpleasant. She brought out two plates of food and placed them on the table with two "dong" sounds.

Lin Guzhi looked at Xia Qing in confusion, and felt that this woman was a little strange. He saw the woman return to the kitchen, so he picked up the package and opened it.

Xiaoxi suddenly became a little nervous, and her small body tensed up. Seeing this, Lin Guzhi smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, it's not a bomb."

This made Xia Qing even angrier. He brought out two bowls of rice and placed them on the table, which made another "dong" sound.

But after Lin Guzhi opened the package, he was a little surprised. The first package contained a cardboard box, and inside the box there were two exquisite boxes - harmonica packaging boxes.

"The harmonica you bought for Xiaoxi and me is not a bomb!"

Xia Qing explained unhappily.

Lin Guzhi quickly said, "Thank you."

Xiaoxi stared at the packaging box of the harmonica with some surprise and curiosity, and the nervousness she had just felt finally disappeared.

Lin Guzhi opened another box. This box was much bigger than the harmonica box. After opening it, it was filled with air-filled transparent film to prevent the things in the middle from being hit.

And the thing in the middle was actually a brand new mobile phone that had not yet been unpacked.

"You don't have a cell phone, so I can't contact you when you go out, which makes me sleep poorly at night... Don't let your imagination run wild! I'm just afraid that you'll wake me up if you come back late, which is more uncomfortable than not being able to sleep all the time! I bought a cell phone this morning and asked someone to send it to you. It's not expensive, so you can use it so that you can tell me if anything happens."

Xia Qing continued to speak unhappily, and then added, "It's not a bomb!"
