Chapter 9: Birthday Presents
Yuankong is twelve years old, not too young, just a teenager, but everyone will see him as a child.
He had been in the hands of human traffickers for more than a year, and the child was at the time of development, but he did not eat or drink well, was malnourished, and was skinny, and although he had been nourished and rounded up in the monastery for the past two years, he still looked younger than children of the same age, and the age of twelve looked like he was no more than eight or nine years old.
It is precisely because Yuankong looks small, and the rain wraps tightly that the age is not visible, some passers-by will even see Yuankong and Yu as a pair of mother and son, angry She went home without saying a word, silently locked herself in the room, leaving Yuankong alone to hold the fruit packed back and feast.
Soon it was time for dinner, and the rain came out after cleaning up in the room, and she decided to take Yuankong with her, not on a temporary basis, but premeditated.
Although the circle is small, but with Buddha nature, he is extremely talented on the way to Buddhism, his mind is pure, he has practiced Buddhism for two years, and he is considered to be a beginner, he can see through the falsehood, and has an extraordinary effect.
Although Le Yisheng's strength is strong, he is still not as good as Yuankong in terms of recognizing people and breaking the law.
Le Yisheng drove Le Huan to the mall first and bought a crystal handicraft with a price of up to 9,000.
Le Huan felt that it was very expensive and there was no need to buy it, in her cognition, Le Yisheng worked many part-time jobs, worked tirelessly every day to live in such a big house, and bought a car.
This birthday gift cost nine thousand yuan, and she felt sorry for his money, but she opened her mouth and didn't say anything, after all, he was an older brother, and he spent much more time in society than her, he must have his own ideas, and she is not good at interfering.

Six o'clock in the evening.
Professor Xu's house was brightly lit, and five people came to Xu's not too big house.
Le Yisheng, who has been expressionless, Happy Joy, Rain, who is silent and embarrassed, Amitabha Buddha's Yuankong, and You Hui, who has just done perfect appearance maintenance from the outside, is the protagonist of today's family banquet.
There were six people, including Professor Xu.
At this moment, You Hui seemed very moved, her beautiful eyes were filled with tears of excitement, and Professor Xu reached out to hold You Hui's hand and looked at her affectionately.
Although except for Professor Xu, everyone present didn't see where You Hui was affectionate.
After the little monk meditated on the Buddha, he ate the dishes on the table by himself, he was young, and no one cared what he did.
"Master, I have prepared a gift for you. ”
Le Yisheng spoke out at the right time to interrupt the ambiguity surrounding Professor Xu and his wife.
Professor Xu was startled, let go of You Hui's hand, and smiled apologetically at her, with a suspicious flush on his face.
Le Yisheng took out the gift from his side and handed it to You Hui, his eyes were calm, he glanced at You Hui and Professor Xu without any extra glances, and quickly withdrew his gaze, the expression on his face was not revealing.
You Hui took the box and put it aside, smiled widely, and thanked Le Yisheng kindly.
"Thank you, Yi Sheng. ”
"My wife might as well open it and take a look. Le Yisheng said quietly.
"Is it okay, is the gift that Yi Sheng gave me very special? Then I have to take a good look. You Hui smiled gently, her eyes full of anticipation.
Yu looked at Le Yisheng, estimated what his plan was, and she also prepared a gift, but it was just a cosmetic product, and there was nothing special, and it was not so simple to think of Le Yisheng's gift.
With a warm smile on her face, You Hui slowly unwrapped the gift in front of everyone.
At a glance, she screamed in horror, and her body couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Professor Xu hurriedly supported the uncertain You Hui and asked nervously, "What's the matter, what is it?"
You Hui shook her head in shock.
Professor Xu glared at Le Yisheng complainingly, and then looked at the gift in front of him.
It is a crystal slipper handicraft, the crystal body is smooth and transparent, the lines are beautiful and smooth, and it is a handicraft of great value.
But why did the expression on You Hui's face change color?
Not only Professor Xu was puzzled, but Le Huan and Yu were also a little puzzled.
You Hui saw that everyone's puzzled eyes were on her, her face stiffened, and she explained with a smile: "I was just surprised to see this gift, yes, it's a surprise, I like it very much, thank you Yi Sheng for the gift......"
As she spoke, You Hui quickly stuffed the crystal slipper into the box, got up and quickly threw the box into the room, and gasped back to her seat.
This is clearly terrifying.
But it seems that Professor Xu can't see it, maybe in his eyes, You Hui is right to say and do.
Le Yisheng said with a calm expression: "You're welcome, if my wife likes crystal shoes, I can ask the teacher to buy them for you." ”
Professor Xu was a little excited: "Yes, it turns out that Huihui likes this kind of thing! I haven't known yet, next time I'll buy it for you, by the way, Xiaoyu can also come together, they are all girls, they must know more about this." ”
Professor Xu really didn't have any doubts about You Hui's words.
You Hui waved her hand again and again and hurriedly said: "No need, no need, just one is good, and more will be boring." ”
Her head was lowered, and from time to time she reached for vegetables, as if trying to reduce her presence.
Yuankong, who was happily eating with his head buried, suddenly raised his eyes and stared straight at You Hui, his eyes flashed with golden light, with exploration and vigilance, just in front of her eyes, which startled You Hui, but after a while, Yuankong lowered his head to eat again, and no longer looked at her.
Next, Yu and Professor Xu both gave their gifts, ate cakes, and the atmosphere was harmonious, and everyone seemed very happy, especially Professor Xu, who couldn't stop smiling.
Looks like this birthday dinner is pretty good......
Half past nine in the evening.
Le Yisheng was about to go to bed after washing, his mobile phone was on the bedside table, it kept flashing, he didn't look at it, he knew that it was rain.
After thinking about it, he changed into casual clothes again, took his mobile phone and prepared to go out.
"Huanhuan, I'm going out, I have something to do at work, and I won't be back tonight. ”
Le Yisheng stood in front of Le Huan's door, knocked on the door, and said to Le Huan, who was bouncing inside.
The door of the room opened, and it opened quickly, and it was a little urgent.
Le Huan, who was standing behind the door, had an anxious face on her face, and she hugged the man in front of her directly in her pajamas.
"Brother, you also said last time that you wouldn't come back at night, but you disappeared for three days, I'm afraid, how uncomfortable I should be if you disappear again, don't go out, okay, even if it's work, you can ask for leave, just ask for leave for me?"
Le Yisheng didn't expect that such a small thing of going out at night would cause such a big reaction from Le Huan, it seems that the thing that disappeared for three days a few days ago still had too much impact on her, he was full of guilt, and felt that he was really sorry for Le Huan, which made her worry and afraid, thinking of this, he pulled Le Huan away and pinched Le Huan's face.
"Huanhuan, it's not good for my brother, I'm sorry for you, my brother will accompany you more, my brother won't go today. ”
Le Yisheng made up his mind.
"But my brother has to make a phone call and talk to a colleague. ”
Le Huan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and then suddenly became suspicious: "Colleague, is it the rain? I have long seen that Professor Xu's granddaughter is the rain who called me before, I haven't asked you about her, what is she doing, why does she always take your phone, and she looks so seductive, she must not be a good woman!" Le Huan said that the expression on his face became difficult again, and he seemed to be very dissatisfied with the rain.
Le Yisheng was helpless, but she was just a colleague, why didn't Le Huan like her so much.
"It's her, but it's just a colleague friend, she usually takes care of me, I always have to call her to tell her when I don't go to work, always be polite. ”
Le Huan always felt that there were some stories between her brother and this incredibly beautiful woman that she didn't know, and she had a feeling that her own things were taken away, which made her heart sour.
"Then, then you hurry up and finish the fight, don't say much about other things!" Le Huan took Le Yisheng's hand and didn't let go.
Le Yisheng rubbed Le Huan's little head, with a slightly stiff and doting smile on his face: "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”
Le Yisheng entered his room and took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and Le Huan followed in wearing plush rabbit slippers.
The posture looked like supervising him, and the little face approached Le Yisheng with a serious face, and his lips pursed slightly, which was cute and made people want to commit crimes.
Le Yisheng smiled helplessly.
He really took off all his indifference in the face of Le Huan, and showed all his warmth and smile to her.
Le Huan's little face was very serious, fierce, cute to death, he looked at her but smiled even more wantonly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't be pulled down.
Since Le Huan came to her side, he had been smiling more and more, and his smile in the past few days was much more than the sum of the previous years when he was alone in Nanshi.
"What are you laughing at, be serious, hurry up and call!" Le Huan stared at Le Yisheng and said angrily.
Le Yisheng deliberately suppressed his laughter, but he still couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Huanhuan, you are so cute now, it's funny." ”
Le Huan's face turned red, his mouth was raised high, and he raised his hand to hit him: "I'll beat you." ”
Le Yisheng calmed down and picked up his mobile phone under Le Huan's gaze.
He ignored the bunch of messages sent by the rain, found the contact directly, and called her.
As soon as the phone rang, it rang, and it was obvious that the rain was also waiting for Le Yisheng's call.
"It's not going to be today. Le Yisheng's expression and tone returned to an indifferent look, which was very different from the appearance towards Le Huan.
The rain on the other end was silent for a while before replying, "Okay, then you will come tomorrow." The tone seemed to be a little resentful.
"Hmm. ”
After a short conversation, he hung up the phone directly.
Le Huan was very satisfied that his brother didn't entangle with that troubled woman, but it was very sour to think that the two of them didn't know how long they had worked together before, and they would have to work together for a longer time later.
Irritating!
Le Yisheng put down his mobile phone and turned his head to smile at Le Huan, and said silently: "Satisfied." ”
Le Huan looked at his brother's clean smile in a daze, and unconsciously became a nymphomaniac. "Oh mom, it's so beautiful, this smile, it's a foul!"
Le Yisheng pinched Le Huan's face and pulled it gently: "What do you think, little fool?"
Le Huan came back to his senses and secretly scolded himself for being unproductive, why can't he resist his brother's face, what a nymphomaniac!
She slapped Le Yisheng's hand angrily, pouted and said, "You see that I have been worried about you for three days, and I feel uncomfortable in my heart, you have to compensate me, people are also little princesses, okay, you have a temper!"
"What kind of compensation method?" Le Yisheng wondered.
Le Huan didn't know what he thought, his face slowly turned red, as if he was a different person, no longer the appearance of the arrogant little princess just now, squirming next to Le Yisheng, his face rubbed Le Yisheng's arm, like a little kitten.
"Otherwise, you can coax me to sleep, I'll sleep here, can you coax me to sleep? ”
Le Yisheng pushed away Le Huan's face with his hand in disgust: "Why are you sleeping with me, although I am your brother, but I am also a man, don't you have any defense?"
Le Huan smirked, pounced on Le Yisheng's waist twice, and rubbed his chest: "You are my brother, how can I be defensive of my brother, I know that you will definitely not have any other thoughts, anyway, you will not treat me badly, what's wrong with me sleeping in the same bed with you, I will sleep with you, I just want you to coax me, ......"
Le Yisheng scolded the street in his heart, how could this kid ......
"We're both adults, so we have to avoid suspicion. Le Yisheng replied in a deep voice.
Le Huan lay in Le Yisheng's arms and arched vigorously, humming in his mouth: "Don't, we are innocent and brother and sister, don't care what others say, and besides, I sleep with you and others don't know, what to avoid." ”
Le Yisheng was helpless, he didn't know how to answer, and seemed to be relieved: "You...... Why are you so clingy. ”
Happy and smirk.
"Brother, do you agree!"
Le Yisheng was even more helpless, nodded in agreement, but warned in his mouth: "Don't make any small movements, don't move when you sleep, don't lie on me casually!"
When Le Yisheng nodded, Le Huan quickly got into the quilt and wrapped himself, and said casually and perfunctorily: "Okay, okay, I know." ”
Le Yisheng's face darkened: "Why are you sleeping on my quilt, you sleeping on my quilt, what am I sleeping?"
Le Huan stared at the innocent big eyes and blinked, she lifted a corner of the quilt, moved to the side by herself, left a vacant seat, patted the vacant seat next to her and said, "Let's sleep together, this quilt is big enough, let's have no problem together." ”
Le Yisheng's head was full of black lines: "Is this a big problem with the quilt! Why don't you bring your quilt over!"
Le Huan replied seriously: "I think your quilt is very comfortable, much more comfortable than my quilt." ”
Le Yisheng can only hehe about this.
As a result, Le Yisheng took out a spare quilt from the cabinet and lay next to Le Huan.
Le Huan thought that Le Yisheng would coax her to be sweet words or something, thinking that it would be greasy and make people feel like a deer in their hearts.
Outcome...... Her brother actually counted the sheep for her!
She was still happily asleep!
???
Really straight men put to sleep.
The next day, I woke up refreshed and full of energy.
Sure enough, I slept soundly......
Le Yisheng was so sleepy that he couldn't count the sheep all night, he couldn't be tired, but there was still a lot to do, he had to go to the rain, some needed to rely on the rain to find, and he also had to help the rain solve her problem as soon as possible.
So he had to work with Rain all the time to get more information and find some truth.
And Yu's job is to maintain the stability of Nanshi, and the main direction of his work is to face the cultivation world.
Le Yisheng has to help her, after all, he is the trump card of the Southern Regions, and his fame is still very great, which can bring her great help.
A thunderous name like Shaojun of the Southern Regions is enough for Le Yisheng to call for wind and rain in the Southern Regions cultivation world, so he can sit on an equal footing with an official feudal boss like Yu and work together.
Who wouldn't respect someone whose future will surely be at the top of the pyramid?
