Chapter 102: The Master's Guest (2)
Gu Mai's face showed a slightly ashamed look, "I'...... I kind of regret it. ”
Not long after making that wish, Gu Mai met his current girlfriend. He likes her very much, he really wants to go on with her, he feels that she is his right match.
But he always remembered that he had made a wish about his grandmother's condition. In his wish, grandma can live to be eighty years old and his fate cannot exist at the same time. According to his law, this means that if the grandmother lives to be 80 years old, she is doomed to lose his girlfriend, and vice versa, the grandmother does not live to be 80 years old.
Gu Mai hurriedly explained: "I regret not that I don't want my grandmother to live to be eighty years old, but that I think there may be a way to have the best of both worlds. My grandmother can live to be eighty years old, and I can be with my girlfriend. ”
Ning Meng didn't have anything to say.
Choosing one or the other may seem cruel, but many times people have to choose one or the other. It's a good thing to say that there is no good thing. If it's so hard to choose, why would you trade it for something like this in the first place?
This is like the reward paid after making a wish at the Relief House, and there is no reason to take it back.
Gu Mai: "I know I'm a little selfish to think like this, so I don't plan to change my mind. At the end of the day, whether my grandmother survived the age of 80 or was able to be with my girlfriend, I am grateful to be old. After all, he made one of my wishes come true. ”
When Gu Mai finished this, the whole person seemed a little powerless, it was a natural powerlessness for things that could not be fought against, just like when a person encountered a landslide, at the beginning, he might be afraid, afraid and wanted to run away, but in the end, when he found that he couldn't escape at all, he was only powerless.
What else can he do besides face and wait for the verdict to be announced?
Gu Mai thanked Ning Meng and left. He really didn't plan to make any wishes to "reverse his life" in the Relief House, he really just wanted to be the same person.
Ning Meng was still holding the chocolate given to her by Gu Mai in her hand. She held the chocolate in her hand and uncinded the skin with her other hand. She put the chocolate in her mouth and took a bite, "It's still filled, it's delicious." ”
Lan rushed over at this time, and said in pieces: "Such a good guest, you will let him go if you are a guest who comes to the door yourself?"
Ning Meng: "Otherwise?"
Blue: "Of course, I want to do everything possible to keep him and make him make a wish." That's the only way you can keep your guests and get paid for them. That's right, and at the same time, lead him to make another wish. It's always easier to maintain old customers than to develop new ones. ”
Ning Meng quietly listened to Lan's "wonderful performance" and beckoned to Bai: "Take him to the room where Chiyan once lived." ”
Lan still doesn't understand that the room where Chiyan lived is actually the "cell" of the Worry Relief House, and there are still prohibitions in it. If Ning Meng didn't give the order, no one would be able to open the ban.
Bai was very happy to punish Lan, and before Lan could resist, he dragged him away.
Seeing this, Hei quickly hid in a corner, and whoever stepped forward at this time would beg for a beating.
But Mingxi did the one who begged for the beating.
He sat down next to Ning Meng: "Did you think of cherries?"
Ning Meng nodded, "Yes, I may have made a similar wish when my grandmother was seriously ill. At that time, I didn't know the existence of the Worry Relief House, so I rushed to the doctor when I was sick, so I made a wish to the air. But my grandmother was gone. ”
Mingxi: "Did you also make a bet with your lifelong marriage?"
Ning Meng smiled bitterly: "Almost." ”
Mingxi: "Then it seems that Cherry loves you very much, she probably doesn't want to see you die alone." ”
Ning Meng's eyes were filled with tears, "So if I don't make such a wish, my grandmother may live a little longer." ”
Mingxi: "Not really. Cherry is an ordinary human, and her life card has long been written. It's the one that was written in the fate, you've seen it. ”
Ning Meng sighed: "So people are just dolls manipulated by the gods." ”
"Yes, just like the characters in the comics, aren't the characters in the comics also puppets manipulated by the writer? In their eyes, the writer who created them is a god. ”
"No, they're friends with writers. ”
Ming Xi saw that she had changed the topic of Ning Meng, so that she would not be so sad, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Cherry is gone, at least she will leave the worry house for you." I, the people of our Comfort House, will take care of you. ”
Ning Meng: "But there will always be you who will return to the palace, who will take care of me at that time." ”
Myung-hee didn't know what to do. He hoped that someone would take over to take care of Ning Meng when that time came, but he was afraid that someone would really take his place when that time came. He hated himself a little bit, and he wondered if it was the kind of selfish behavior that humans often do.
Ning Meng probably didn't want to embarrass Mingxi too much, so she immediately smiled: "By that time, I will have grown up, and I won't need to be taken care of by others." ”
She looked good when she smiled, like bright sunshine, like spring flowers, but in Mingxi's eyes, he seemed to see the dark clouds under Ning Meng's eyes.
A few days later, Gu Mai came to the house again.
Repeat customers, which is rare in the Worry House.
Ning Meng noticed that Gu Mai had already taken filial piety on his right arm at this time.
Ning Meng still asked Gu Mai to sit down and let him talk about his own affairs.
Gu Mai: "Grandma passed away. I always thought that maybe my grandmother knew the wish I had made to the old man. That's why she chose not to let her life last until she was eighty years old. You, did she get my marriage in some way?"
Ning Meng thought of her grandmother, "I don't know if this old man has heard such a wish, but I believe that your grandmother loves you." No matter what you go through in between, at least at the beginning and all the way to the end, she loves you. ”
Gu Mai sighed, barely holding back her tears, "Yes, grandma loves me." Then he took out a badge from his pocket and handed it to Ning Meng: "Grandma specially handed this to me before she died, and told me to bring this to find the owner of the worry house." She, you will understand when you look at it. ”
That badge is similar to the badge held by Wang Shuaishuai and Gui Yu, which can be described as Ning Meng's "fate reading badge". She couldn't help but ask, "You and your grandmother came to the house to make a wish?"
Gu Mai saw that Ning Meng's expression was different, and he also felt a little panicked inexplicably, "No, I never had." So I also wonder why my grandmother just called me over and gave me this badge. I'm obviously not her favorite grandson. ”
Ning Meng: "In your family, in addition to your excellent hearing, is there anyone else who has great hearing?" ”
"There is no one among the same generation, and the third uncle who has heard a distant uncle can always hear strange sounds. However, the third uncle in the family suffered from mental illness. ”
"Or something else?"
"Are you a special function?" Gu Mai: "As far as I know, I haven't heard of it." ”
Ning Meng can probably be sure that Gu Mai is the same person as Zhao Yong and Xue Li.
Zhao Yong is spirit pupil can see what others can't see, Xue Li can smell what others can't, and Gu Mai can hear sounds that others can't.
Gu Mai's grandmother deliberately handed over the badge to Gu Mai before she died, which means that Gu Mai's grandmother must know something. The badge is something inherited from the family, that is, Gu Mai's ancestors may have appeared similar people.
Since Gu Mai has a badge, then Zhao Yong and Xue Li will definitely have a badge. But Gu Mai only entrusted Rao guests, and now he doesn't know whether the person holding the badge is friend or foe, should he be with him?
Ning Meng asked: "Did your grandmother pay back anything other than handing over the badge to you and asking you to give it to me?"
Gu Mai thought for a while and shook his head: "It's nothing." At that time, she was already dying, and it was only by holding on that she told me about this, and even if she thought about it again, it might not be too late. ”
The trail is broken again.
Ning Meng didn't dare to jump to conclusions, only: "Thank you for giving me this badge." Then he sent Gu Mai out.
After Gu Mai left, the people in the Worry Relief House carefully studied the badge.
Hei couldn't help but complain: "The ancestor of the Gu family is really frank, and he directly drew an ear on the badge, is this for fear that everyone will not know that their hearing is outstanding?" ”
"That's not bad. If Zhao Yong has a badge with eyes and Xue Li has a badge with a nose, then it will prove that they are all the people that the house is looking for," Ning Meng looked at Mingxi again, "What about you, what do you think?"
Mingxi: "It's the first time I've seen this badge in more than 2,000 years. But it seems that our immediate priority is to find the badge. ”
"Good, wonderful, what a useful nonsense. Once again, Chiyan came uninvited, and he still didn't like his brother at all.
It's just that this time Mingxi didn't hold a fan as a defensive posture, but looked at him quietly.
Ning Meng smiled and said, "Chiyan, why do you have time to come over?"
Chi Yan was extremely unaccustomed to Ning Meng's sudden kindness, and almost got goosebumps all over his body, hugging his arms: "You are less enthusiastic, I look scared." Why can't I come, can't I go through the door?"
Ning Meng's smile did not reduce the heat at all, "Since you are here, let's sit down, chat together, and drink tea." Black, go get refreshments. ”
"Don't be busy," Red Flame stopped Black, "I'm here for business." Who has nothing to do and has time to talk nonsense with you. Then he threw something on the table.
"Badge?"
Everyone spoke in unison.
