Chapter 183 - Beautiful New Tenant

 In order to investigate whether Xiao Mao is gay, I followed Xiao Yu's suggestion and spent two hours to download the famous movie, "Brokeback Mountain" on my computer and then after dinner, pretended to randomly turned on the computer and invited him to accompany me to watch a movie, Xiao Mao did not refuse.

On the 19-inch LCD screen, two handsome cowboys Jack and Ennis had a genuine love in the remote Brokeback mountain, a taboo love that began one night in a tent that raged like a bonfire. They concealed their sexual orientation and married ordinary women and secretly dated regularly for over ten years, with the hope to stay together all through their lives. Unexpectedly Jack accidentally fell off a cliff and died and Ennis took Jack's ashes and hung the shirts that they were wearing when they first met on the same hanger. This love between them is like aged wine that has been saved for many years, after opening the bottle cap, it has the strongest fragrant aroma.

I forgot the original purpose of watching the movie. I held a tissue in my hand and for the love story between them, kept wiping the tears falling from the corner of my eyes and was immersed in their romantic and passionate love that was unable to return.

When I finally remembered Xiao Mao, it was already 10 minutes after the movie ended. So I hurriedly excitedly turned to him, and managed to restrain my expression and put on a gentle and thoughtful smile, "What do you think of this movie?"

Xiao Mao lowered his head and did not speak.

"Isn't it very touching? Do you have any opinion on this kind of relationship?" I continued to ask.

Xiao Mao didn't still didn't speak.

"If...if you really have this type of orientation, I stand for the freedom in love, I will not object or discriminate." Seeing his attitude, I felt sad in my heart and with difficulty persuaded, "But if you don't have this type of orientation, or it is just sprouting, I suggest you give up. Although being ** in fiction and movies are very good, but this kind of love is very difficult in the real world. I don't want you to be hurt in the future..."

Xiao Mao still didn't say anything.

"Don't sell your soul for money!" I tried to move him with deep words from the books, however, Xiao Mao's breathing was unusually noisy. It seems...something is a bit wrong.

So I held his chin and gently lifted his head, but now Xiao Mao's eyes were already closed, and his long eyelashes were shaking. He was actually soundly asleep and had not completely not been listening to the comforting words I had racked my brains to come up with.

The tiger is not mighty. Do you think I am he11okitty? I stood up and shook his shoulders. He was roused from his dreams, rubbed his eyes and in a daze said, "Mother...I am sleepy." Then curled up and leaned his whole body towards me on the couch and embraced me like a little baby and continued to sleep.

It is already 11:30 pm. Xiao Mao didn't seem to want to get up and go back. I was finally angry and pounced on him and gave him a kick. Then pulled him up from the couch and ordered him to return to his room to rest! There must be no misunderstandings!

Xiao Mao finally got up, his eyes were red and he rubbed his messy hair, yawned and went out. Until I finished washing up and got ready for bed.  It was then that I realized that this half-awake person unexpectedly took my Xiao Ding when leaving....how hateful. So, this evening I could only hold the cat that Ao Yun gave me to sleep.

The next day was the weekend. I lazily slept in and didn't want to get up. Unexpectedly a little after 8 am, there was loud noise from outside the house, there were also voices and laughter of moving workers. It was bothering me so I couldn't continue to sleep, so I rushed to the window to look outside. It turned out that the pharmacy outside the alley was relocating and changing to a pet hospital. Several workers were working inside with tools like drills. There was also a large new signboard on the side, with a few words covered with a red sheet.

I was annoyed by this disturbance and went to the protest. The lead contractor was good with his words and apologized to me in a strong country dialect. "Pretty girl, I have to do this project within a strict time limit and because of that, I have startled everyone by starting to do this noisy work at 8 am. I am very sorry, the work will be completed in two days. Very very quickly."

He has explained it this way, I was also embarrassed to continue to protest, so I smiled and then turned back, ready to go read novel online. I didn't expect that the tenant opposite me hurriedly rushed to me saying that he wants to check out. He had a full 6 months left in his contract and according to the rent rules, the deposit is non-refundable. And this tenant is a very calculated person, if he is charged even 0.50 cents extra for water and electricity, he will quarrel with me. I cannot make any decisions about these money matters, so it very difficult.

When the issue of the deposit was raised, the tenant suddenly smiled happily, his face was beaming with joy and he said he doesn't even need the deposit money and even stuffed 300RMB in my hands or water and electricity bill and cleaning fee and said everything is fine as long as he can move out immediately today. I looked at his hurried back and suspected that this person had won a grand prize...

I asked the cleaning aunt to the clean the now vacant room and quickly tidy it up. I just went out to the entrance to post a poster for recruiting new tenant. When there was a beautiful woman who lightly walked into the alley, she was very beautiful, with an oval-shaped face, cherry lips, lovely and charming, her eyes seemed somewhat sorrowful. Her black hair was long and silky like a waterfall and she was wearing a long decorative cheongsam skirt and embroidered shoes on her small feet, revealing a rare classic modern style.

I couldn't help but turn and look at her, but she walked up to me and lightly smiles, "I want to rent a room." I looked at the poster on the wall and silently tore it and led the beautiful woman into the vacant room for her to look around. The beautiful woman looked at it for a few moments and rented it without even asking the rent price, and then took out her ID and introduced herself, "My name is Hua Rong, a freelancer on Taobao. I don't like going out and I'm always at home, so if you have free time you can come and play with me."

After confirming that this person was not suspicious, I received the deposit and collected the rent and gave her the keys. In the afternoon, her furniture and luggage were moved in, they were all very exquisite and refined. Also, it seemed this person seems to like to household duties, it was all done very quickly and put a few beautiful flower pots on the window sill and then I could relax.

At 4 pm, the outside noise finally stopped, so I went to take a midday nap and unexpectedly overslept, I called Xiao Mao and asked him to buy meal boxes for me and him. He said that he was out and won't be back until late. So, I helplessly crawled out of bed and prepared to make instant noodles, when Hua Rong rang my doorbell and was holding a large pot of hot fish soup in her hands.

She smiled and a little bashfully said, "I accidentally made too much and thought to bring some for you." I was hungry and saw her at that moment as an angel in my heart and could not thank her enough, I invited her into my room and brought out potato chips and melon seeds to entertain her.

Hua Rong's cooking skills was extraordinary, the fish soup was exceptionally delicious. After eating to my fill, I chatted with and she talked endlessly about her experiences and knowledge and felt an understanding with her. She's interested in all my favorite things, I was exhilarated and shared my views and found we were very similar. Her words warmed my heart and I felt unusually friendly towards her and it wasn't the kind that's just under false pretenses, but it was like she was my close and interesting older sister.

A few hours quickly went by, in which I had dug out my heart to her and cozied up to her. I thought that this was the first confidante in my life, it was wonderful, I was able to say so many things that were in my heart.

At 10 pm, we were still talking excitedly, when Xiao Mao finally came back with a bucket of fried chicken wings. He said that he was afraid I would be hungry so he especially went to buy it. He caught sight of Hua Rong, snorted and very quietly said, "He didn't need to be so eager and urgently send you here..."

Hua Rong didn't seem to hear what he said and looked up at him with a face full of smiles, "You're Miao Miao's younger brother Xiao Mao, right? I am a new tenant, I live in number 5, you can come to my place for tea when you're free."

"Then we won't be polite!" I took the chicken wings Xiao Mao brought and quickly opened the package and happily shared it with everyone. I saw that the eye contact between the two of them was a little weird, so I smirked and said, "Xiao Mao, sister Hua Rong is a very good person.  If you got to her place to play, you must not be a pervert."

Xiao Mao sat down helplessly and rudely said: "Oh, I won't bother to avoid receiving a beating..."

"If you don't bring Xiao Ding back, I will beat you."
