Chapter 147
Although Chen Mo didn't expect the orange cat to appear at such a critical moment, his reaction was still very fast. Seeing that Jiang Muli was about to fall backwards, Chen Mo hurriedly stepped forward with a big stride, bent down and stretched out his hand, and stopped Jiang Muli's waist with one hand.
Although it is indeed a bit too much for this person to repeatedly pit himself, after all, Chen Mo, as the leading actor, still has the excellent quality of being broad-minded, so it is reasonable to make this kind of move. (, that's not what Lao Tzu thinks.) If it weren't for that Lin Xueqing still watching, for the sake of his reputation in school in the future, Lao Tzu would not have saved this vicious black-bellied mother-in-law. Whether she dies or not, it's my business! )
Ahem, let's not mention Chen Mo's reason for rescuing Jiang Muli for the time being. Anyway, no matter what the reason was, Chen Mo just stepped forward to help Jiang Muli.
Jiang Muli didn't scream at the moment of falling, but subconsciously looked sideways, wanting to help something. At the same time, Chen Mo's arms had already supported her torso, and before she could lift her feet off the ground, the tendency to fall backwards stopped.
Jiang Muli was supported by Chen Mo like this. looked at each other, and for some reason, the atmosphere that should have been very tense at this time turned out to be a little embarrassed.
Lin Xueqing on the side had already covered her big mouth, closed her eyes tightly, leaving only a small slit, and couldn't bear to see Jiang Muli fall. But before she could react to what was happening in front of her, Jiang Muli was already lying in Chen Mo's "arms".
"Ahh Lin Xueqing obviously didn't control her emotions and shouted loudly. If only a few people around him could hear his shout just now, then now the whole store was moved. People who came to buy the pastries turned their attention to the source of the sound to see what was going on here.
It can be said that what she Lin Xueqing saw today is really more exciting than one another. Her original knowledge accumulation has been refreshed again and again, and now she can't imagine what more exciting things will happen next. But now, when she saw the curious eyes of everyone around her, she also realized her gaffe just now, and quickly covered her face.
However, although everyone's eyes were on this, they were not looking at Lin Xueqing, but at Chen Mo and Jiang Muli on the side. And at this moment, the whole store seemed to be quiet.
"Meow~"
The first to break this silence was the orange cat on Jiang Muli's chest. In fact, the orange cat didn't want to spoil the atmosphere, after all, it also likes to see such things. But after all, this is not a place where cats should stay, and they still sneaked in, and now that they have gathered so many eyes, it is naturally better to run away before the clerk comes to clean up themselves.
So the witty orange cat quickly ran out of Jiang Muli's body, and escaped through the crack in the door as soon as he slipped through the smoke, and the speed was stunned by the clerk who wanted to catch the cat, and he couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the orange cat at all.
"Eh, I said if you have been lying down enough, my arms are all gone." After the orange cat ran away, Chen Mo also came back to his senses. said to Jiang Muli, who was "in his arms".
"Oh, oh." Jiang Muli was also a little slow to react just now. Anyway, it's the first time I've been hugged by a boy like this, and I'm still a little nervous. However, after Chen Mo's reminder, he quickly adjusted his state, and with a slight force on his waist, the whole person stood up.
The crowd around saw that there were no more melons to eat here, so they stopped looking at this side, and everyone started to do what they should do again.
The first one to rush up was Lin Xueqing. It's just that she is not worried about Jiang Muli's safety, but the fire of gossip in her heart has begun to burn and is out of control.
However, Jiang Muli obviously didn't plan to give her any chance to speak, and when she saw that Lin Xueqing was about to rush over, she hurriedly hugged her neck and covered her mouth, and the two rushed out of the pastry shop together.
Chen Mo was really speechless. These two people are running fast, as if they are treating themselves as air, and they don't even look at themselves. However, Chen Mo didn't bother to bother with the two girls, because at this time, there was another matter that interested him even more.
Chen Mo only realized at this time that the little brother who was still standing next to Lin Xueqing just now had disappeared at this time. Chen Mo looked around, convinced that he had not fallen into any position, but the little brother was indeed gone.
Chen Mo still remembered the last time he saw him, the weird smile when he saw that he was about to eat the cake. But the man was gone, but the cake that had fallen on the ground was still there.
Because the commotion here just now was too big, the other clerks had already noticed the situation here, and naturally they also saw the half of the cake that fell on the ground. At this time, there was already a clerk coming over with cleaning tools.
"I'm sorry handsome guy, we didn't expect a cat to suddenly break in, I'm sorry for the fact just now."
It was a young lady who came to clean up, with an apologetic face. Of course, Chen Mo also responded politely, after all, the cat that came in actually had a lot to do with him, and if he wanted to talk about responsibility, he also had an unshirkable responsibility. Of course, Chen Mo was naturally stupid enough to admit on the spot that the cat that slipped in just now was raised by himself.
And just when Chen Mo just wanted to turn around and leave, suddenly, he found that the half of the cake on the ground had undergone some strange changes. A wisp of imperceptible yin qi slowly rose from the back of the cake and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Chen Mo hit a spirit. After dealing with evil people for a long time, I sometimes see things that are difficult for ordinary people to see. For example, yin qi, this is a very metaphysical thing. In fact, he didn't know whether he saw it or felt it, anyway, at that moment, there was a trace of something strange in his eyes, and Chen Mo could clearly feel that that thing was not something that normal people could see with the naked eye.
But Chen Mo didn't say anything, but walked out of the store quietly.
……
When Jiang Muli and Lin Xueqing walked out of the store, Jiang Muli let go of the hand covering Lin Xueqing's mouth. Immediately afterwards, Jiang Muli quickly took out a paper towel from his pocket, spit out the cake crumbs in his mouth, and threw them into the trash.
"Mu Li, ...... you" Lin Xueqing originally wanted to ask Jiang Muli about her mental activities just now and her future plans, but when she saw Jiang Muli spit out the cake directly, her eyes were full of doubts again, and she left all the questions she had thought about before behind.
"I'll talk about it when I get back to it." Jiang Muli didn't let Lin Xueqing finish her words, but immediately interrupted her.
To be reasonable, to be honest, Jiang Muli really regrets that he came out with Lin Xueqing today, and he also regrets that he called Chen Mo just now. She can now imagine what kind of rumors will appear in the school in the future, and those legendary stories must be the big horn next to her, Lin Xueqing. So Jiang Muli wanted to be quiet and enjoy this last comfortable time. Because in the next few days, there will inevitably be another bloody storm.
Of course, this is also an afterword, and no matter how you say it, you have to write another 100,000 words to say it in detail. In fact, Jiang Muli did this for another reason, that is, to take a good look at the development of things just now. Since he just came out of the pastry shop, Jiang Muli always felt weird, as if he had missed some very crucial clues.
So, naturally, there was nothing to say, and the two girls walked back to the student apartment in a very strange atmosphere.
……
After Chen Mo came out of the pastry shop, he saw that the orange cat was no longer in the original position at this time, so he looked left and right, and symbolically looked for it. In fact, Chen Mo didn't have much hope, after all, cats are not as recognizant as dogs, they are casual, they can run when they want, they can sleep when they want, and they have only known this little orange cat for less than an hour, and they don't expect this guy to wait for him.
But just as Chen Mo turned around and wanted to enter the supermarket, a cat meow suddenly sounded behind him.
"Meow~"
The orange cat jumped lazily and deftly climbed onto Chen Mo's shoulder. Don't look at this guy's small size, that is, thirty or forty centimeters, but its bounce power is very amazing. It's okay to jump up to Chen Mo's waist.
"Yo, I still know that I'll come back, I said you're going to get caught up with me, right?" Regarding the return of the little orange cat, Chen Mo was not very surprised. This guy originally appeared in front of him suddenly, and he helped himself just now, so no matter how you think about it, the little orange cat shouldn't let go of himself easily. However, Chen Mo still couldn't understand why this guy recognized himself and had to be with him?
But Chen Mo didn't have the heart to dig deeper now, because at this time, his stomach had already begun to scream. Hunger has curbed Chen Mo's thinking, and now all of Chen Mo's actions are basically from human instinct, and it is the right thing to find a way to fill his stomach first.
Fortunately, pets are allowed in supermarkets, but the premise is to keep an eye on your pets and not let them run around. Of course, seeing that the orange cat was sitting on Chen Mo's shoulder so obediently, the staff did not stop Chen Mo, and just let one person and one cat in. And Chen Mo, who entered the supermarket, is really popular, after all, this shape, walking a cat, is really difficult to see.
After purchasing some ingredients, Chen Mo didn't stop at the supermarket for long, settled the bill, paid the money, and ran home with the orange cat.
