Chapter 4552 Don’t Care
"I hurried out to see Xiao Xiao..."

As a host, how can you leave your guests alone for so long?

……

The boy shrugged.

"As you know, Xiao Xiao is gone."

"I searched the whole house."

“No one was found.”

……

"I am disappointed."

The boy was very frank when talking to the old man.

Moreover, the old man was the only person he could tell about this matter.

"I still have a lot of questions for him."

“But he didn’t give me that opportunity.”

"he's gone."

……

The boy rubbed his temple.

“I was even a little angry.”

"But then I noticed the time on the clock on the wall..."

"I panicked immediately."

"I am late."

"No."

The boy shook his head.

"I missed work."

"It's already so late..."

"I hurriedly sent a message to my leader."

"I don't dare to call."

"I'm a bad talker."

The boy laughed at himself.

He didn't know how to explain to his boss what happened yesterday...

Tell your boss that he encountered a monster?
How can it be?

……

"But maybe I've been behaving too badly during this period..."

The boy touched his face and said, "The leader didn't blame me."

"I was also given a day off."

"He also told me that if I wasn't feeling well, I could take a few more days off."

"Wait until you feel better before going to work."

……

"You have a good leader."

The old man smiled.

……

"Ah."

The boy laughed too.

The leader’s response really made him…

"I'm a little surprised too."

but……

"I'm thinking……"

The boy touched his face again and said, "How bad has my complexion been recently..."

……

"It's very bad."

The old man nodded.

"I didn't get enough rest."

"And those with bad tempers are worse."

It was clearly shown on the boy's face.

"...like a firecracker."

"It seems like if someone accidentally touches it, there will be a bang..."

The old man gestured, "It exploded."

……

"...No wonder so few people have talked to me recently..."

The boy smiled bitterly.

Although there weren't many.

But there is still some communication at work.

But during this period, he seemed to have very little communication with others even about work.

He had doubts at first.

Soon I stopped caring.

He is a quiet person by nature.

And as time went on, just as the old man said, he was like a firecracker...

It can easily ignite and explode.

If you don't want to get hurt accidentally, it's better to keep your distance from him.

……

"Not anymore."

The old man comforted the boy.

……

The boy smiled.

He actually didn't care much about this issue.

But the old man had good intentions, so he naturally accepted it.

"Ah."

……

"...After I asked for leave, I almost accepted the fact that Xiao Xiao was leaving."

The boy was silent for a few seconds.

"I am hungry."

"I ordered takeout."

……

"oops!"

Speaking of takeaways…

The old man was a little anxious.

"Look, you haven't even eaten yet while talking to me."

"Eat quickly."

"Let's talk about it after we finish eating."

"Fortunately, the weather is hot now, so the takeaway food won't get cold easily..."

The old man stood up and helped the boy open the takeaway.

……

"Grandpa Wang, I'll do it."

The boy quickly placed his lunch on the table.

……

"Grandpa Wang..."

The boy swallowed a mouthful of food and spoke.

……

The old man shook his head disapprovingly.

"Do not talk."

"eat first."

"Eat at least 50% full before speaking."

The elderly don’t necessarily require boys to eat in silence.

Just talking will affect boys' eating.

Whatever they wanted to talk about, they had to fill their stomachs first. There was no rush for them to talk about it.

……

Ok.

Seeing the old man's insistence, the boy ate obediently.

He was indeed hungry.

After eating a few bites, the boy remembered something and looked at the old man, "Grandpa Wang, do you want to eat something?"

He felt a little embarrassed to be stared at while eating like that.

……

"Need not."

The old man shook his head.

"you eat."

"I have already eaten."

"I am full."

"You eat more."

"You've lost weight in the past few days."

……

"Have it?"

The boy smiled a little embarrassedly, "It's better to be thinner."

“I also think I was a little fat before.”

"That's good."

“I lost weight naturally.”

The boy finally found a good thing.

I have also thought about losing weight.

Mainly seeing that there are boys in the office losing weight.

He also had some ideas.

But in the end I still didn't make up my mind.

He has a weak resistance to delicious food.

The work is hard enough.

Can’t eat good food…

Then he would feel that his life had no direction.

Unexpectedly, this time, one of his wishes came true.

……

"Are you still fat?"

The old man was surprised.

"You're so thin..."

In the past, boys’ bodies were considered to be relatively strong, which was good for boys.

Boys nowadays are a bit thin.

The old man is not very satisfied with the boy's current body shape.

In the eyes of the elderly, this body shape is not very healthy.

"You're not a girl, why do you have to be so thin?"

The old man disagreed.

"Girls don't have to be too thin."

The old man said quickly.

"It ruined my body."

“Good health is the most important thing.”

……

"Ah."

The boy nodded.

"I know."

“I’m not on a diet.”

"You see, I eat a lot."

.....
Looking at the braised pork rice that was more than half gone, the old man nodded with satisfaction.

"Ah."

"Eat more."

……

The boys finished their lunch quickly.

The old man frowned slightly.

“Don’t eat too fast.”

“It’s bad for digestion.”

……

The boy smiled.

“That’s how fast I normally eat.”

Unless he is watching a video while eating, he will eat slower.

Otherwise, he eats very quickly.

Well.

It can’t be said to be very fast either.

This is the speed at which an average boy eats.

……

The old man nodded.

……

"Grandpa Wang, drink some water."

After the boy cleaned up the table, he poured a cup of hot water for the old man and himself.

Fortunately, I just boiled water yesterday.

Otherwise, he couldn't let the old man drink cold water.

……

The old man took the cup of water.

"Thank you."

The old man took a sip of water.

……

"Xiao Ding."

The old man spoke slowly.

His fingers gently stroked the wall of the cup.

"Little friend Xiao Xiao left and left."

"Don't take it too seriously."

……

The boy was slightly stunned.

Since the old man said so...

He smiled bitterly.

“I just have a lot of questions…”

"About the monsters..."

The boy murmured.

That's a monster...

For the first time in his life, he knew...

Are monsters real?

Is it really not that person who made it up?

Is that person's brain okay?
But his problem was indeed solved by that person...

Ah!
The boy's brain nerves were tangled.

There was a throbbing pain.

……

"How do you know that someone left without saying goodbye..."
