lost by your side

Chapter 4 Fire Nightmare

"Hey, corn, can you hear me? Hey—" Xiao Bai shouted in Yuan Tian's body.

Yuan Tian stared at Corn for a while, and then Turned around and went back to eat rat food.

"It seems that I can no longer communicate with Corn..." Yuan Tian said to Xiaobai, "Maybe the communication between souls can only be limited to the same body?"

"Impossible, that guy must be pretending to be stupid! Does he think he can eat my precious mouse food openly?! You bastard, corn! Fight if you have the ability! See if I don't bite you to death!"

"Okay, okay, just let it eat. Anyway, you can't eat it like this now. It's a waste to keep it, right? If you can reincarnate in my lifetime and make a hamster again, I will definitely buy you a pack that is better than this." Wouldn't better rat food not work?"

"Hmph, don't pretend to be garlic, I have already heard what you think in your heart. If I really killed the corn, wouldn't you have no reason to go to my former master's house every day to drink tea? In your human words It's called 'The Drunkard Doesn't Want To Drink'!"

"...where did you, a hamster, learn that phrase?"

"I don't know... It seems that after staying in your body for a day, I understand a lot of human things."

A hand waved in front of Yuan Tian's eyes.Yuan Tian came back to his senses: "Ah, team leader."

Chen Nian asked: "Why are you in a daze?"

Yuan Tian smiled: "No, nothing..."

Chen Nian said: "I have read the system architecture design book you wrote. It is generally okay, but your language expressions are a bit too ambiguous in some places."

"Team leader, what did you say needs to be changed? I'll go back and change it today."

Chen Nian circled several places in the typed manuscript with a pencil and wrote some notes, and then handed it over to Yuan Tian.Yuan Tian looked at it and said, "Thank you, team leader. I'm so sorry for troubling you all the time. Team leader, are you free tonight? I'll invite you to have a meal outside."

After hearing this, Xiaobai laughed and said, "Hmph, after waiting for so long, you are finally going to make a move."

Chen Nian smiled and said, "Why are you so polite?"

But Yuan Tian tried his best to convince Chen Nian.He brought Chen Nian to a newly opened restaurant, studied the menu for a long time, and asked Chen Nian carefully about his preferences before ordering with the waiter.

"It really can wag its tail, like a dog." Xiao Bai said.

"Are you in control? Anyway, I am the dominant soul, and I have the final say on what I want my body to do." Yuan Tian said to Xiaobai silently in his heart.

After a while, the waiter brought a bottle of red wine.Xiaobai sneered: "Eat Chinese food and drink red wine? What kind of shit is this pairing?"

"I haven't reduced myself to asking a hamster to teach me. There is no rule that you can't drink red wine with Chinese food."

"Hey, you're holding the wine glass in the wrong way. You can't touch the wine with your fingers. You, a country bumpkin, still want to chase after my former master?"

"Why are you so wordy! Also, you've been treating me so sourly since just now, what exactly are you trying to do?"

At this time, the waiter brought a dish and said, "You ordered dry pot dishes."

Xiaobai's ridicule became louder: "Dry pot with red wine? You bastard!"

Not to be outdone, Yuan Tian shouted in his heart: "As long as it's delicious! Can you stop barking, I'm almost distracted by you!"

"Why hasn't this waiter left yet?" Xiao Bai was muttering, but saw the waiter take out a white thing from his pocket and put it under the griddle, then took out a lighter and pressed the white thing on the white thing. Click the button.The white thing suddenly ignited, releasing a small flame that wrapped around the bottom of the pot obediently.

"Ah!" Yuan Tian suddenly covered his eyes and yelled, then hid back.Chen Nian and the waiter were startled, and all the customers around turned to look at them.

Chen Nian hurriedly asked: "What's wrong with you?"

Yuan Tian still covered his eyes, panting heavily.

Chen Nian hurried to him and stroked his back, and asked with concern: "What's wrong with your eyes? Talk?"

After a while, Yuan Tian calmed down a bit and said, "Ah, I'm sorry, can you put out that fire?"

The waiter was taken aback, and quickly tried to put out the fire under the dry pot, and said, "Sir, the fire has gone out."

Yuan Tian carefully removed his hand, and saw that there was indeed no flame under the bottom of the pot.Then he said, "Ah, I'm sorry. Maybe it's because the wind just happened to blow in my direction, so some sparks splashed into my eyes."

The waiter looked suspiciously at the position of the air conditioner and the door.But she finally said: "I'm so sorry sir, I will definitely be careful in the future."

Chen Nian said to the waiter: "There is no need to light the fire, we can just eat like this."

After eating, Chen Nian still worriedly sent Yuan Tian back to his place of residence.After Yuan Tian thanked him, he closed the curtains again as before, and turned on all the lights that could be turned on.He fell on the bed, asked Xiaobai in his heart to apologize, and said, "I do know that animals are afraid of fire, but I didn't expect to be so afraid of it. Can such a small flame not work? Well, I will pay attention next time, no It's going to happen again. Are you okay?"

Xiaobai said: "It's also the first time I've discovered that I'm so sensitive to fire. Maybe it's because I've never been in contact with real fire before."

Yuan Tian sighed, didn't care about it anymore, and gradually fell asleep from exhaustion.

That night, Yuan Tian had a nightmare.

He dreamed that he was tied to a chair with Xiaobai on his lap.They were confined in a small space by iron plates, surrounded by raging fire.The flames bit their bodies cruelly, and the iron plates were scalding, making them cry in pain.Yuan Tian struggled desperately but could not escape, while Xiao Bai desperately helped him bite the rope that bound him.But soon, Xiaobai stopped moving.His throat was also choked by the billowing smoke, and he could no longer yell.But he still continued to do the yelling lip gesture.He repeatedly yelled "Dad!" "Mom!", and another person's name.Until a painful feeling of falling into hell came, Yuan Tiancai suddenly woke up from the dream.

Yuan Tian tried to recall the dream.It was clearly a dream that had just woken up, but it quickly became blurred.Especially the name of the person other than his parents that he called in his dream, he couldn't remember how.

"Xiaobai, are you sleeping?" Yuan Tian asked softly in his heart.

Xiaobai was silent at first, and then cursed angrily: "Why did you let me, a creature afraid of fire, accompany you to have a dream of fire everywhere!"
