Chapter 164

Chapter 164

In a cozy two-bedroom apartment, Gray Tail sat on the floor tiles, sharpening a knife against a cow bone. In the past, he would always be focused and diligent while sharpening. Today, however, he seemed distracted, occasionally glancing in the direction of Zhou Ziyou's room.

Ever since they returned from the amusement park, this woman had been quiet for a week, and now she was dressing up again.

She was going on a blind date.

After all, she was longing for a man.

Gray Tail pursed his lips, feeling a strange emotion he couldn't quite pinpoint.

Zhou Ziyou's search for a partner was her freedom, and he shouldn't feel possessive towards her. He couldn't say anything, couldn't stop her, after all, he didn't like her.

Suddenly, the door to the room was pulled open, and Zhou Ziyou walked out wearing a pink fitted dress. She had curves, her figure was very obvious, and her long hair was permed into curls, giving her a somewhat sexy look.

Looking at her like this, Gray Tail's breath hitched, then awkwardly lowered his head to sharpen the cow bone.

"Little Wolf, what do you think of this outfit? Is it too pink?" Zhou Ziyou asked, standing in front of him.

Gray Tail knew she was dressing up to meet a man, and though genuine compliments were on the tip of his tongue, he held back.

He lowered his head and replied in a dull tone, "Not great."

"Oh, maybe it's too pink, right? Seems a bit childish." Zhou Ziyou was about to go change, but then she looked at the time and gasped, "Oh, I'm going to be late, forget it, I'll just go like this."

She hurriedly grabbed her bag to put on her shoes, and Gray Tail turned his gaze away as she slipped her feet into high heels, her feet were very white and cute, his face blushed, and he averted his eyes.

At the same time, he felt even more uncomfortable in his heart.

As he waited for Zhou Ziyou to return, his inner turmoil was excruciating, he couldn't even sharpen the cow bone.

When Zhou Ziyou returned, she wailed, "Another failure!!!"

Gray Tail felt that this was the happiest thing today.

Before they could say much, suddenly, Gray Tail strode to the balcony, his face serious, listening to something.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Ziyou also came to the balcony, looking at him strangely.

Gray Tail stared at her, silent for a moment, before saying, "I have something to do, I need to leave for a few days, you'd better not go out during this time."

After saying that, he gave her a deep look and walked towards the entrance, putting on his shoes.

Zhou Ziyou hurriedly followed, "Where are you going? Is something wrong?"

Gray Tail paused, but ultimately didn't say anything, and left.

He didn't return for ten days.

His phone was unreachable.

On the fourth day, after Zhou Ziyou finished work and walked into the living room, she looked around at the empty house, feeling strangely stunned.

She hadn't been alone like this in a long time.

On the floor tiles was Gray Tail's usual spot.

Now the house was quiet and peaceful, as if Gray Tail had never been there.

Where did he go?

Is he not coming back?

Actually, it's understandable. He's a werewolf, not even human, he speaks little, rarely talks about himself, and it was only at this moment that Zhou Ziyou realized how little she knew about Gray Tail.

What he needed to do, whether to return to Snow Mountain or never come back, was all possible.

In fact, it's nothing much, separation is inevitable sooner or later.

Once she figured it out, she went to the balcony to water the flowers.

On the sixth day,

Zhou Ziyou squatted on the balcony, touching a plant.

She didn't understand what was going on, why she had to go to Zhou and couldn't reach anyone.

She didn't know if it was safe.

Later, Zhou Ziyou thought about it and realized that she might have stayed up late and lost her mind, she didn't even ask Shang Xi!!

On the eighth day,

The cow bone was ground into round particles, coated with something that made it smooth and shiny, forming a circle like a pearl necklace.

He handed it over but seemed shy, looking away.

"For me?" Zhou Ziyou was stunned.

Gray Tail had been grinding this thing on the floor whenever he had free time, and she never thought it was for her.

At least two months had passed.

Such a heartfelt gift, was it for her?

Recently, all her blind dates had failed, but Gray Tail's necklace brought her some happiness.

At least someone was willing to spend so much time and effort on giving her something.

She felt warm inside.

Taking it, she put it on immediately: "Thank you, I really like it."

She didn't notice the happiness in Gray Tail's eyes when she put it on.

An earthquake struck Qingcheng.

Zhou Ziyou's blind dates were put on hold, and Gray Tail went to volunteer, delivering food every day.

After the earthquake passed.

This time, she went on a blind date through an introduction from a university classmate. It was her classmate's cousin, a team leader in a big company, thirty years old.

Zhou Ziyou decided to give it a try.

"I'm going on a blind date tomorrow, can you watch the house?" She showed Gray Tail a photo: "Look, he's a team leader in a big company, and he looks decent, right?"

Looking at the man in a suit on her phone, Gray Tail pursed his lips: "He's so ugly."

"I think he's okay."

Gray Tail smirked: "You have bad taste."

Zhou Ziyou teased: "Can't compare to a handsome guy like you, we're just ordinary people, living ordinary lives."

The next day.

She dressed up, grabbed her bag, and said, "I'm off."

Gray Tail watched her leave, unsurprised.

This woman had failed so many blind dates, this one would surely fail too.

Through Zhou Ziyou's numerous failed blind date experiences, he felt that blind dates were completely unreliable.

He went from being on edge at the beginning to now being relaxed and carefree.

After all, she wouldn't succeed, so he didn't need to worry.

She would come back, and they would continue to nest in this little home.

Gray Tail looked in the fridge, saw there was no food left, went to the market, bought the vegetables Zhou Ziyou liked, and put them in the fridge one by one.

He mopped the floor, cleaned up.

"I'm back!" Zhou Ziyou opened the door and walked in.

Her face was flushed, her voice filled with joy: "Gray Tail, I succeeded in my blind date!!"

Gray Tail was stunned, thinking he had misheard.

His face turned slightly pale: "You said... what?"

"Haha! You can't believe it either, can you? I feel like I'm dreaming right now." Zhou Ziyou changed into slippers, still holding a bouquet of roses, carefully placed it on the table, and said with a smile, "I think he's not bad."

Gray Tail was shocked as if struck by lightning.

Standing there dumbfounded, his face all blackened.
