Midnight Bookstore Chapter 87 – Boss, You…

Holding the phone, Zhou Ze struggled to get up. He leaned against the wall and sat down. Actually, he could already move a little. He might not be able to get out of bed and walk around, but he was not as weak as he looked.

Reaching out, he pointed to a spot under the bed.

Little Monkey turned around and saw that it was half a box of Suyan cigarettes.

It jumped down, picked up the cigarette, and handed it to Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze made another gesture with his lighter.

Little Monkey was stunned for a moment. He was very ashamed and angry. He wished he could take out his cudgel and hit Zhou Ze!

“I haven't smoked in a long time. I want one.”

Little Monkey jumped off the bed and rummaged through the junk pile. Finally, he found a lighter and threw it over.

He lit his cigarette, took a puff, and puffed out a smoke ring. Although his body was still weak like a canvas that had been patched countless times and could fall apart at any time, the first cigarette in the past ten days still made Zhou Ze feel a sense of satisfaction.

He purposely pretended not to move, and Zhou Ze did not know what his motive was.

Guilty?

Did he owe it anything?

Perhaps, perhaps not. Even then, Zhou Ze did not feel that he had made the wrong choice.

But at least for now, this monkey had saved his life. He owed it a lot.

Holding his phone, Zhou Ze thought about it and realized that he could not remember the calls from Bai Yingying, Xu Qinglang, and the others at all. This was not like the times when he went to the convenience store to make public calls. Very few people would remember their phone numbers and save them in their contacts.

In the end, Zhou Ze could only call 110.

Xu Qinglang and the rest did report his disappearance. Zhou Ze told the operator over the phone that he was fine and asked them to contact the informant to pick him up. There was no need to trouble the police.

About half an hour later, Xu Qinglang arrived in a Nissan with a white oriole.

Xu Qinglang walked into the shack while covering his nose. When he saw Zhou Ze lying on the bed, his eyes immediately turned sour, but he immediately restrained himself.

Perhaps…

The cruelest thing in the world.

I just said that I'll go home and cook.

But you did not come back to eat.

Bai Yingying carried Zhou Ze off the bed. She was very strong and carried him like she was playing.

Zhou Ze said to Xu Qinglang, “Bring that monkey along.”

Little Monkey sat by the bed and watched Zhou Ze being carried away. He held his small plastic hammer in his hand.

Swis.h.!.+

It was like a farewell.

However, when Xu Qinglang walked toward it, the little monkey jumped onto the wall. It was obviously unwilling to leave.

Being a gra.s.shead king with a bunch of cat soldiers and dog generals, and having so many subordinates serving him daily was so satisfying. It was not willing to leave.

Furthermore, it did not like the man that it had saved.

Xu Qinglang looked at Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze repeated, “Take him away.”

There was no room for discussion.

The pet I like.

He had to take her away.

Xu Qinglang went to catch the monkey, but the monkey was very agile and Xu Qinglang could not catch it.

Bai Yingying placed Zhou Ze in the car and rushed over. Monkey did not expect this woman to be so fast. He was one step too slow and was caught by her tail.

Squeak squeak squeak!!!

The monkey bared its fangs at the whiteingale with a ferocious expression!

Stupid woman.

' How dare you arrest me! '

Roar!

The whiteingale opened her mouth at the monkey, revealing her zombie fangs.

It was a scene with a green face and sharp teeth.

Monkey was stunned.

Skin again.

Believe it or not, I'll eat you!

“Be good and follow me.”

The white oriole dragged the monkey's b.u.t.t with one hand, grabbed its tail with the other, and drove it into the car. Then, it closed the car window.

Zhou Ze sat in the back seat, half lying down.

Monkey sat beside Zhou Ze.

He crossed his arms, obviously sulking.

It felt that it had saved Zhou Ze, but Zhou Ze wanted to take its freedom. This was not good!

I treat you as a patient, but you want to train me in a secret room!

“I brought you away because I was afraid that you would be harmed if you tried to save someone else,” Zhou Ze explained weakly. “The grudges from our previous life are considered settled. In this life, I owe you first. Stay at my place for a while. If you still want to leave in the future, just leave.”

It was unclear whether Monkey understood or not, but he was more obedient than before.

Xu Qinglang threw a bag of biscuits over. Monkey took it and opened the bag himself. He ate with his hands and did not forget to give one to Zhou Ze.

The man and monkey had developed this kind of tacit understanding in their lives.

“Yo, looks like I was worried for nothing. The two of you have been living quite comfortably recently.”

Xu Qinglang joked as he drove.

“Are you jealous of a monkey?”

Bai Yingying suddenly interjected.

Xu Qinglang choked and stopped talking.

The bookstore had not been moved yet, and Zhou Ze, the boss, had suddenly disappeared for half a month. Who would still have the mood to move? Hence, Xu Qinglang still drove back to the old place.

He got out of the car.

It was Bai Yingying who carried Zhou Ze into the bookstore. Since Zhou Ze was already there, he decided to take things easy. If he had a choice, he would choose Xu Qinglang and Bai Yingying.

Zhou Ze still felt that it was more acceptable for Bai Yingying to hug him.

Monkey did not escape. Instead, he followed closely behind.

“You're back?”

The old Daoist priest was cleaning the bookstore. When he saw Zhou Ze return, he immediately came over to flatter him and said,

“Heaven helps the worthy.”

Then, the old Daoist priest saw the monkey behind him and was amused. “You brought a pet back?”

Then,

The old Daoist priest posed like a beautiful monkey king and shouted,

“What use do I have for this iron rod!”

He did not expect the little monkey to be so cooperative. It also made a scratching gesture, one of its fingers scratching the old Daoist priest's hand.

“Black, this monkey is smart, like me.”

After saying that, the old Daoist priest felt that he had said something wrong.

The moment he entered, a woman walked down the stairs.

The first thing that was revealed was a pair of flesh-colored stockings, long legs, an exquisite high school girl's outfit, and a shawl.

Tang s.h.i.+ had mostly recovered and could walk now.

Women loved beauty. The first thing they did when they regained their mobility was to dress themselves.

On this point, Zhou Ze felt that Bai Yingying was much more down-to-earth. Other than playing games, this silly girl did not care much about her appearance.

“If you don't come back soon, we'll have to leave.” Tang s.h.i.+ smiled. “Without the dog, the smell of the kennel will fade, and we won't be able to hide it anymore.”

“I just came back. Can you say something nice?” Zhou Ze was really helpless against this woman.

“Okay, say something nice. The boss of the noodle restaurant next door told me what happened that day. Do you know what you provoked?”

“I think she's called G.o.ddess Qing Yi,” Zhou Ze replied.

“A temple G.o.d, a temple G.o.d that was about to be completely destroyed, and you actually took the initiative to provoke her. Do you know that she doesn't have much time left, and she also knows that she doesn't have much time left.”

“She's killing people.”

“Do you know who she killed?”

Zhou Ze glanced at Monkey, who was still playing with the old Daoist priest, and shook his head.

“I'm not interested.”

Tang s.h.i.+ walked to Zhou Ze's side and covered her nose.

“How smelly.”

“That's why they call themselves stinkers.”

Tang s.h.i.+ did not get mad. “Did you use to say that?”

“When you were lying on the bed like a mummy, who was interested in you?” Zhou Ze pointed at the bathroom and said to Bai Yingying, “Help me take a shower.”

Bai Yingying was stunned.

However, the silly girl immediately said, “Oh, okay.”

Given Zhou Ze's current condition, it was impossible for him to bathe himself. However, his body was covered in layers of mud, and he would feel uncomfortable if he did not shower.

Get Xu Qinglang to help me shower?

Just thinking about it was unbearable.

Let the old Daoist priest bathe him?

When he thought about how the old Daoist priest was ma.s.saging his back while singing 'Heavenly Travel', and then looking at the old Daoist priest's body that was as thin as a rib, there was no meaning to it.

As for Tang s.h.i.+, forget it. If she had to help him shower, she would rather control a pen and end her life.

Only the simple and kind whiteingale was left.

After entering the bathroom, Zhou Ze sat on a stool while Bai Yingying helped him remove his clothes. She had not taken off her clothes, so the shower was not as erotic as he had imagined.

Holding the spray head, she slowly washed away the mud on Zhou Ze's body. Looking at the wounds all over Zhou Ze's body, Bai Yingying was so surprised that she could not close her mouth. She asked,

“Boss, your injury is too scary. That G.o.ddess Qing Yi is really something. I heard her temple has been toppled. She deserves it.”

“She didn't do it,” Zhou Ze said. “Actually, most of my injuries were caused by myself.”

It was very difficult for Zhou Ze to understand that kind of state. He did not even know if he could enter that state again on his own accord. However, he was certain that once he did it again, he would still be covered in wounds.

To be honest, his body was too weak.

Bai Yingying started to apply the shower gel for Zhou Ze, her hands roaming around his body.

Unknowingly, an intoxicated look appeared on her face as she said,

“Boss, for some reason, when I touched your body, I liked this feeling. It was a very close feeling.”

As a zombie, Bai Yingying could feel the presence of her own kind from Zhou Ze. Even though this kind of person looked very weak, the suppression and disparity between their ranks made her instinctively want to surrender.

Bai Yingying had felt this way when she hugged Zhou Ze earlier.

“Take a good shower and stop fooling around.”

Zhou Ze reminded.

At that moment, Xu Qinglang coughed outside the bathroom.

Bai Yingying froze.

“What?”

“I made a bet with Beauty Xu to see if the boss would be able to make it.”

Then,

The whiteingale lowered her head.

He purposely looked down.

Then, she opened her mouth wide and exclaimed,

“Boss, you actually…”
