Taoist Master and the Cat - Chapter 148

After entering the elevator, the housekeeper pressed “8”.

The three handsome college students all glanced at her.

The housekeeping aunt laughed, “You guys also live on the 8th floor, what a coincidence.”

Gu Jialing wanted to strike up a conversation, but when he caught a glimpse of the Taoist master’s cold face, he closed his mouth tightly again.

After getting out of the elevator, the housekeeping aunt followed them and finally stopped in front of door 802.

Xu Shou and Gu Jialing were stunned.

Xie Jingyuan took out the key directly, but he didn’t close the door after entering 801.

Gu Jialing hurriedly put the quick-frozen food into the refrigerator. 

Xu Shou was not in a hurry, seeing Su Miaomiao open the door for the housekeeping aunt, he confirmed that it was she who contacted her, so he was about to leave.

When Su Miaomiao noticed the ingredients in his hand, she asked, “Are you going to cook dinner?”

Xu Shou: “Yes.”

After eating in the cafeteria for a week, Gu Jialing tentatively asked the Taoist master to buy vegetables and cook for them, and he agreed.

Su Miaomiao swallowed.

Xu Shou: “You haven’t eaten yet?”

Su Miaomiao nodded pitifully.

Xu Shou glanced at the few fish in the shopping bag and knew that the Taoist master was not so stingy, so he told her to come over later.

Su Miaomiao was very happy. She took the aunt into 802 first, before closing the door, and running over like a hurricane.

It was related to Su Miaomiao’s safety, even if the housekeeping aunt was a woman, Gu Jialing wanted to come over and watch her.

Su Miaomiao told the housekeeping aunt where to clean, and finally pointed to those yellow plants and said, “Throw them all away.”

“It’s a pity to lose such good flower pots. I don’t think the plants are completely dead. Maybe they could turn green again with some water.”

 “I’m too lazy to pour water, you can keep it.”

The housekeeping aunt didn’t grow flowers either.

Gu Jialing said pleasantly, “Here, we are short of a few pots of plants.”

After confirming that Su Miaomiao really didn’t want them anymore, Gu Jialing happily started moving them to his apartment.

Xie Jingyuan came out of the kitchen and frowned when he saw those yellow and wilting plants.

The fish soup was still simmering, but it should be ready to drink when everyone finished eating.

The three college students were all over 185 cm and ate a lot. Su Miaomiao exercised every day and could eat two bowls of rice.

Xu Shou found out when he was shopping for vegetables in the supermarket that the Taoist master bought Su Miaomiao’s favorite fish and shrimp. When the Taoist master put the rice in the rice cooker, he also secretly noticed it, and confirmed that he cooked the meal for four people. 

He knew that the Taoist master had a cold face and a warm heart. He just didn’t want to help Su Miaomiao with those trivial things anymore, and it wasn’t that he didn’t care about her.

To be conservative, Xu Shou still consulted the Taoist master first.

The housekeeper continued to clean, and Su Miaomiao followed Xu Shou to 802.

On the rectangular dining table, Xie Jingyuan used to sit next to Su Miaomiao. But when she came over, she happened to see Xie Jingyuan put his bowl and chopsticks on Xu Shou’s side.

“The dishes are all ready, come and eat,” Gu Jialing held a plate of braised fish with a smile on his face.

Although the food in the canteen was good, it was still not as good as the Taoist master’s cooking.

The Taoist master was also a real chef. He didn’t eat meat, but he cooked all kinds of meat dishes with good taste.

Su Miaomiao’s stomach was already growling. She washed her hands, and sat in her old seat, except that Gu Jialing was next to her, and Xie Jingyuan was on the opposite side.

Gu Jialing talked to her while eating, “Is it worth calling a housekeeper for your small apartment? You don’t cook, but can’t you just wipe the table and mop the floor?”

Su Miaomiao: “I don’t like doing it, mind your own business.”

Gu Jialing: “Okay, I don’t care. Anyway, you have money. By the way, how much does it take to call the auntie once?”

Su Miaomiao: “Three hundred yuan, it’s cheaper during the day, this time it’s a night bill.”

Xu Shou glanced over silently. If it wasn’t for Su Miaomiao who always disliked him, he didn’t need three hundred, he could help her clean for two hundred.

Gu Jialing tried to ease the atmosphere, so he deliberately joked, “The Taoist master cleaned it for you a few times, shouldn’t you give the money to him?”

It was just that those words were unknown if they were spoken to Su Miaomiao or himself.

In fact, she really wanted to go to university with the Taoist master like before, and then come back with him. She wanted to sit in the back seat of the Taoist master’s bicycle with her arms around his waist.

She liked the smell of the Taoist master, liked the various things he did for her, and also liked the dishes that he cooked.

But the Taoist master didn’t want to care about her anymore, and didn’t even talk to her.

The fish in the bowl didn’t seem so tasty anymore.

However, thinking that next time he might not even ask her to come over to eat fish, Su Miaomiao began to eat again.

When she was full, Su Miaomiao was ready to leave, but Gu Jialing stopped her, “Hey, I won’t clean your dishes.”

In the past, the Taoist master took over Su Miaomiao’s bowls and chopsticks, but when he didn’t care, and Xu Shou wouldn’t touch Su Miaomiao’s things all the time, did she want him to do it? 

Gu Jialing wanted to fight for bird rights for himself, so he wouldn’t be suppressed by Su Miaomiao all the time.

Su Miaomiao had never washed dishes since she was a child.

She subconsciously looked at Xie Jingyuan.

Just when she remembered that the Taoist master would no longer help her, and when Xu Shou and Gu Jialing thought that the Taoist master would refuse, he stood up expressionlessly and took away Su Miaomiao’s bowl and chopsticks.

Su Miaomiao watched him walk into the kitchen in surprise.
