CHAPTER XXI

"Girl, it's been a long time since I've seen you come to eat noodles, where have you been for a while?" When the noodle stall proprietress saw Chu Mi, she greeted her with a smile, "Sit down, sit down, I'll make you your favorite noodles." After speaking, he found that Chu Mi was still followed by a young man, "Yo, you also brought a son over this time?" This is the first time I've seen you bring someone to eat noodles, so it won't be your sweetheart...... Aha" The proprietress warmly beckoned Chu Mi and Dongfang Du to sit down, without the slightest fear of Chu Mi.

"This is my junior brother, what a sweetheart!" Chu Mi blushed slightly and explained, "Don't make fun of me, boss, let's go and make noodles!" Otherwise, we'll be gone! As he spoke, he sat down on the stool and placed the bronze sword on the table, while Dongfang Du sat down on the stool opposite Chu Mi.

The proprietress glanced sideways and quietly glanced at Dongfang Du, turned around and said to Chu Mi with a smile: "Don't don't, I'll make noodles for you!" Saying that, he filled two bowls of hot soup for Dongfang Du and Chu Mi, "It's cold, let's drink two bowls of soup to warm up first, and the noodles will be fine for a while." After that, he went to knead the dough.

Chu Mi picked up the bowl and took a sip of the hot soup, and Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Dongfang Du sitting still, staring at himself without drinking the soup, seeing that his eyes seemed to have something to say to himself, so he put down the bowl and asked, "What's wrong Xiaodu?" "I thought, 'Watching me all the time, can't I have some intentions?!'

Dongfang Du raised his head and glanced around, the noodle stall business was good, the table was almost full, the proprietress was kneading the dough, chatting with the surrounding guests from time to time, and then turned around and asked, "Senior sister, you always come here to eat noodles?" Looks like I know the lady well......"

"Well, I came here to eat noodles every night a while ago, and after eating it for seven days, I became familiar with the proprietress." Chu Mi explained, wondering in his heart, 'Is it because of this to stare at me?' ’

"This lady looks pretty young."

"Well, it seems to be twenty-five or six, both parents died, so I made a living from this noodle stall, people are very arrogant, straight, good people, I heard that there was a matchmaker who came to the door to say kiss, but I haven't agreed." Chu Mi glanced sideways at the proprietress of the stall, "It's not easy for a girl's family." ”

"Why doesn't she agree?" Dongfang Du is like a curious baby, and he keeps asking questions, and the topic is all about the noodle stall proprietor.

Chu Mi narrowed his eyes and said jokingly: "What, look at the proprietress of the stall above?" Why don't I go and tell you a matchmaker? How about marrying back to be your princess? ”

"Uh, senior sister, what are you talking nonsense......" Dongfang Du no longer asked Chu Mi questions, but picked up the bowl and drank a sip of hot soup, hiding his embarrassment, swallowing the soup, but found that Chu Mi looked himself up and down, with an inexplicable smile in his eyes, seeing Dongfang Du's heart tremble, he hesitated slightly, put down the bowl, got up and sat down beside Chu Mi.

Dongfang Du and Chu Mi were originally sitting facing each other, but at this moment, Dongfang Du moved his position and became sitting on the same stool. The proprietress turned around and saw that Dongfang Du was sitting with Chu Mi, and smiled ambiguously, "I also said that I am not my sweetheart, I am sitting together!" Turn your head and roll out the kneaded dough into slices with a rolling pin.

"You have something to say, why are you sitting next to me? Isn't it too crowded? Chu Mi saw Dongfang Du sitting beside him, and deliberately moved to the side with disgust, "Won't it be like when you were a child, you have to be fed by your senior sister to coax you before you are willing to eat?" ”

"Senior sister, how many years ago did this! Why do you still mention it! Dongfang Du blushed and muttered in a low voice, "Why do you always treat me as a child!" ”

No matter how small the voice was, Chu Mi still heard it, "Okay, okay, I don't treat you as a child anymore, you are an adult!" Then why are you sitting next to me? You don't really want me to match the boss for you, do you? Chu Mi tilted his head, his hands supported his chin, his eyebrows raised, and his eyes were full of teasing.

The hands placed under the table pinched the hem of his clothes, Dongfang Du bit his lip, and shouted softly, "Senior Sister", put his head to Chu Mi's ear, and whispered: "Senior Sister, I found that I like girls." ”

"I like girls...... Like girls...... Girl" Dongfang Du's words echoed in Chu Mi's mind, and it took a moment to react, "You like girls?!" Chu Mi grabbed the corner of his clothes and said with a frightened face: "You, you, you don't like me, do you?" Chu Mi already knew her identity when Dongfang Du was eight years old, and what she said before was all joking to the proprietress and the matchmaker, but at this moment, when Dongfang Du came to his ear and suddenly said that he liked women, he was so frightened that he asked directly and loudly.

It was a noisy surrounding, but it suddenly quieted down, and the noodle stall guests and the proprietress heard Chu Mi's words, 'You won't like me', and they all looked at Dongfang Du and Chu Mi's table.

"Little boy, do you learn to confess at a young age?"

"This confession has to be heartfelt! How can you confess casually at a noodle stall! ”

The proprietress was not happy when she heard it, "What's wrong with the noodle stall, I can't get on the table to confess in my noodle stall in my wife?" Do you have to have a full moon and a quiet lakeside confession to have your heart? As he spoke, he pointed to a crescent moon in the night sky, "Look at it, a crescent moon, and with my bowl of intoxicating noodles, how emotional!" ”

……

Dongfang Du listened to the discussion of the people around him, his face was flushed with embarrassment, his hands were tightened, and he whispered: "Senior sister, you misunderstood, I ...... I don't like you......"

"What? No!!! Chu Mi didn't expect that something more difficult to accept than Dongfang Du's liking of women would be that the woman Dongfang Du liked was not himself, and his heart at this moment was like being stabbed twice, and he couldn't speak in pain.

Seeing that the people around him were still looking at him, Dongfang Du got up and sat back in the opposite position, lowered his head and stopped talking. In her previous life, since she returned to the palace, she rarely met with Chu Mi, and until she died, she didn't tell her about her liking women, today, I happened to hear the boss lady ask her if she was her sister's sweetheart, so she thought about telling her about her liking women, who would have thought that her senior sister would have such a big reaction, and after swimming in the rivers and lakes for so long, shouldn't she not be surprised by anything?

The two were silent for a long time, each with their own thoughts. It wasn't until the proprietress brought the noodles up that the two of them didn't speak, "Miss Chu, son, your face is ready." After speaking, he glanced at Dongfang Du, who bowed his head, and thought that he must have been rejected by Chu Mi, so he comforted him like a confidant big sister: "You are still young now, wait a minute, and then pursue Miss Chu when you grow up." After speaking, he turned around and left, leaving a majestic back for Dongfangdu.

'What is this!' 'Dongfang Du is helpless. And the words of the proprietress stabbed Chu Mi in the heart again, it has only been a year apart, and the little junior brother who sticks to himself all day long is empathetic?

Dongfang Du saw that Chu Mi's face didn't seem to be very good, swallowed his saliva, and explained cowardly: "Senior sister, I don't like others either. "In this way, the senior sister should not be unhappy.

When Chu Mi heard this, his heart suddenly felt a lot more comfortable, as if the knife just now did not stab his powerful heart. picked up the chopsticks and mixed the noodles, suddenly looked up again, and asked, "Xiaodu, you just said that you like women, but is it true?" ”

"Hmm" Dongfang Du hesitated for a moment, nodded, his eyes darkened, he thought of the dark clouds, and couldn't help but ask in his heart: "Do you still like her?" Love, it seems, doesn't disappear so easily. Kill her, can you really do it? ’

"Senior sister, if you fall in love with someone, she will become her weakness." Dongfang Du frowned slightly, put down the chopsticks gently, looked at Chu Mi, obviously knew this answer, and still wanted to ask his senior sister. The pain in my heart, no one can say, it seems that only this senior sister, who has been with her from the age of three to the age of thirteen, is the only person to confide in at this moment.

Chu Mi took the chopsticks for a moment, and then smiled lightly, "Yes, it will be a weakness." "'Xiaodu, you are my weakness.' Chu Mi wasn't sure about her feelings for Dongfangdu, but she could be sure how important Dongfangdu was in her heart.

Dongfang Du lowered his eyebrows and thought about it, struggled inwardly, and finally asked: "Senior sister, how can I become ruthless." ”

"Ruthless?" Chu Mi frowned and asked puzzled. I couldn't help but wonder why Dongfang Du suddenly asked her this question, 'Do you want to be ruthless?' ’

Dongfang Du didn't answer, but changed the topic and said, "Eat noodles, senior sister, it's going to be cold." After speaking, he picked up the chopsticks, lowered his head and ate the noodles, not daring to look at Chu Mi again.

Chu Mi looked at Dongfang Du who was immersed in eating noodles, the company of the past ten years, she knew Dongfang Du's character clearly, something must have happened to her, so she would be so capricious, she stopped talking to herself, shook her head lightly, and thought that she would ask carefully when she went to bed at night, so she also ate noodles and stopped talking.
