Chapter 18: Swallowing Millions
Seeing that Lin Qiao'er was busy in the kitchen alone, Qin Xiaolong was not good at sitting alone in the living room, so he also followed him to the kitchen.
Lin Qiao'er glanced at him and asked, "What are you doing when you come in, go to the living room and watch TV, it will be fine soon." ”
"It's not fun to watch TV alone, I'll help you do it." Qin Xiaolong said, and the person had already entered the kitchen.
"Okay, then you can help me chop vegetables, I haven't cooked for a long time since I went to college, and I just practiced my hands today." Lin Qiao'er said with a smile. In fact, the two have been helping out in restaurants since they were children, and although their cooking skills are not as good as those chefs, they are still much better than ordinary people.
"By the way, Xiao Yong said that he had something to do, so he won't come, and the gift will be made up to you next time." Qin Xiaolong remembered Wu Yong's matter and said, "What about Uncle Lin and Auntie, are they still busy?" ”
"The store is too busy these days, I used to help every day, and on my birthday today, my parents only let me take a day off, and they shouldn't come up at night."
"Oh, so it's our birthdays, and it's just the two of us who end up spending it together."
"That's right."
The two of them chatted and cooked at the same time, and with cooperation, they quickly made everything. It's just that the kitchen is not big, and when two people go in together, it becomes a little crowded, and they touch it from time to time, which makes the two of them a little embarrassed.
Everything was ready, and the two sat facing each other, eating and chatting, but there was a bit of a candlelight dinner, which made the two slightly intoxicated. In addition, after drinking some red wine, Lin Qiaoer's cheeks were pink and her eyes were watery, and Qin Xiaolong was also a little distracted.
Since there were only two people and there were not many things to do, they quickly finished eating and cleaned up, and even the cake was handed over to Qin Xiaolong alone because Lin Qiao'er was afraid of getting fat. In the whole process, I'm afraid only blowing out the candles and making a wish is like a birthday.
After everything was done, Qin Xiaolong plucked up his courage, took out the exquisite little gift box and came to Lin Qiao'er, and said softly: "That Sister Qiao'er, happy birthday, I haven't given you a gift before, this is the first time I've bought something, I hope you like it." ”
"Thank you." Lin Qiaoer took the pink and white box and looked very happy. When I opened the box carefully and saw the necklace inside, my eyes lit up at first, revealing a burst of love, and a trace of inexplicable shyness. Then he frowned and said, "Xiaolong, this chain must be very expensive, where did you get so much money and waste buying these things." ”
Lin Qiao'er's tone was reproachful, but Qin Xiaolong heard a strong sense of concern, so he could only smile and say, "It's not expensive, I just made a little money playing a game, so I thought about giving you a birthday gift, I haven't given you anything before." Besides, it's worth it to buy something for Sister Qiao'er, no matter how expensive it is. ”
When Lin Qiao'er heard this, her heart was also very sweet, but it was not easy to show it, so she teased: "Hmph, how can you learn to be flamboyant, say it quickly, you have deceived many girls." ”
"Where would I lie to any girl, otherwise I wouldn't have been single for so long." Qin Xiaolong said, thinking of the previous events again, his eyes darkened slightly, but then returned to normal, took the necklace in Lin Qiao'er's hand and said, "I'll help you put it on." ”
Lin Qiao'er was slightly stunned, and then replied softly with a red face: "Hmm." ”
This voice was not much louder than that of mosquitoes, if it weren't for Qin Xiaolong's superior ear power and close proximity, he really wouldn't have heard it. However, Qin Xiaolong didn't care about this, walked behind Lin Qiao'er, carefully wore a necklace, smelled the faint fragrance of Lin Qiao'er's hair, and couldn't help but recall the time when the two played together when they were children, but now that the two of them have grown up, they can no longer go back to the time when they were two little guesses.
Qin Xiaolong was thinking nonsense, but Lin Qiao'er's mind was blank, and her face was so red that her ears were red. Although Qin Xiaolong had been in love once, he had always gone with the flow and didn't particularly care about the meaning of gifts.
On the other hand, Lin Qiaoer, although she has never been in love, is a girl after all, she is delicate, and she knows what it means for a man to give a woman a necklace and put it on for a woman with his own hands. The most important thing is that Lin Qiaoer has a secret in her heart that only she knows, that is, she has liked this Qin Xiaolong since she was a child, and she likes it for no reason, even if Qin Xiaolong has a vigorous love, although Lin Qiaoer is sad in her heart, she has never changed her mind. It's just that as a girl, Lin Qiao'er knows that Qin Xiaolong has always regarded her as a sister, she is embarrassed to take the initiative to confess, and she doesn't dare to confess, she is afraid that once she says it, the relationship between the two will no longer be close, and she won't even have to be friends.
Until Qin Xiaolong put on the necklace and said in her ear, "Okay, Sister Qiao'er." Lin Qiao'er came back to her senses, touched the heart-shaped pendant on her chest, and asked, "How is it, is it good-looking?" ”
"Of course it's good-looking, Sister Qiao'er is naturally beautiful, and she looks good when she wears anything."
Hearing Qin Xiaolong praise herself, Lin Qiao'er was naturally very happy in her heart, and then she thought of something and said to Qin Xiaolong: "Xiaolong, wait, I also have a birthday gift for you." With that, he trotted into the bedroom.
After a while, Lin Qiao'er came out with a mobile phone box in her hand, handed it to Qin Xiaolong and said, "It's the era of smartphones now, you see that the old mobile phone you still use doesn't look like a young man at all, I bought this for you, hurry up and replace it." ”
"Thank you, Sister Qiao'er." Qin Xiaolong took the phone, scratched his head and said, "The main thing is that I usually have nothing to do, I don't chat online, I don't play games, I just make calls occasionally, and I use any mobile phone." ”
"It's the same with this phone, this is the best smartphone at the moment, come, change the card, I'll teach you how to use it." Lin Qiao'er said, she had already skillfully opened the mobile phone, took Qin Xiaolong's mobile phone card, and taught Qin Xiaolong how to use it.
Usually, it is very simple to see others use it, but when Qin Xiaolong first came into contact with it, he found that he really couldn't use it, and he suddenly felt that he couldn't keep up with the times. Fortunately, his learning ability was okay, and with Lin Qiaoer's careful teaching, Qin Xiaolong quickly learned how to use it.
was having fun, Qin Xiaolong thought that Lin Qiaoer's economic situation was not much better than his own, how could he have the money to buy a mobile phone, and couldn't help asking: "Sister Qiao'er, this mobile phone is very expensive, why do you have so much spare money?" ”
Lin Qiao'er had just asked Qin Xiaolong a question before, and was suddenly asked back by Qin Xiaolong. Lin Qiao'er was stunned for a moment, a trace of bitterness flashed in her eyes, but she was quickly concealed, and said with a smile: "You still take care of me, don't worry, I'm not a person who will spend money indiscriminately." ”
Although it was bitter at that moment, and it was quickly covered up, it still didn't hide from Qin Xiaolong's eyes, Qin Xiaolong couldn't help but ask with concern: "Sister Qiao'er, has something happened to you?" ”
"It's nothing, you don't have to worry."
Lin Qiao'er didn't want to say, Qin Xiaolong didn't want to ask anything, and seeing that the time was not early, he said goodbye to Lin Qiao'er and left.
When he returned home, it was already past nine o'clock, and Qin Xiaolong didn't plan to play the game anymore, but after practicing for a while, he took a shower and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, I was woken up by a strange ringtone, and when I saw it, it was the ringtone of a new mobile phone, and I used it for the first time, and I haven't gotten used to it. At first glance, it was Wu Yong calling, and as soon as he picked up the phone, before he could speak, Wu Yong's voice came out of it.
"Hey, Xiaolong, how was your birthday yesterday?"
"What else, that's all. You call me early in the morning to wake me up, don't you just ask me this, if it's not important, see how I clean you up. Qin Xiaolong said hatefully, every time Wu Yong played games all night, he gained something, no matter what he played, he always liked to call Qin Xiaolong to report the good news, and Qin Xiaolong couldn't sleep lazily every time he had a holiday, so he was forced to develop a good habit of getting up early.
"Damn, it hurts my heart to say that. I'm telling you, my mission is done, and guess what I got. The more Wu Yong spoke, the more excited he became, and he almost shouted, "I got a silver-level weapon!" Silver-level, now many people haven't even seen bronze-level equipment, I already have silver-level weapons, this person's luck is coming, and he really can't stop it. ”
Qin Xiaolong was also secretly surprised when he heard this. According to what the village chief said, there is only one gold weapon in his novice village, which is basically impossible to get, and other novice villages should be in a similar situation. I originally thought that I got the silver weapon, it should be far ahead of other players, but I didn't expect that other novice villages have also appeared silver tools, according to this view, there is no lack of high-level equipment and even skills in other novice villages, Huaxia is really talented, and there is more than one lucky person, if you want to achieve something in "Chaos", you must work harder.
Qin Xiaolong thought in his heart, and said: "Oh, I know, if you get the silver weapon, you should be able to pull out a lot of ordinary players, take advantage of it now to become stronger, and expand the advantage." ”
Listening to Qin Xiaolong's flat tone, Wu Yong was angry for a while, in this world, there are still people in this world who are happy to tell people about a particularly successful thing, and others don't understand the meaning of it, is it even more depressing. In Wu Yong's heart, the reason why Qin Xiaolong is bland is because he is a rookie in the game and does not understand the preciousness of silver ware at all. I could only say helplessly: "Come on, I know you don't understand, it's really a bad scenery." Now that a silver artifact is not a problem to buy it for a few million, I am thinking about whether to sell it as soon as possible to get the maximum profit. Anyway, my current weapon is not bad, and with the money, I can just buy a good car, and I haven't gotten into the car for the driver's license I just got in the middle of the previous period.
"Millions! You're crazy about money. Qin Xiaolong said in disbelief, although the silver ware was precious, it would not be sold for so much money.
"You know a fart, the most important thing in this world is the rich people, especially those guild bosses, this silver weapon can give them a great lead in strength, spending millions is no different from eating a meal." Wu Yong reasoned with a look of disdain to Qin Xiaolong.
"Is that really that exaggerated?" Qin Xiaolong was also stunned when he heard this, this silver artifact is worth millions? The best silver weapon before him was even more valuable, but he was actually swallowed by himself, and this swallowing of millions made Qin Xiaolong feel that his heart was dripping blood.
"Of course, you don't understand. I won't tell you, I'm tired from a hard night's work, so I'll go to bed first. ”
Wu Yong hung up the phone, Qin Xiaolong sighed, after washing up and eating something, he hurriedly entered the game, thinking that if he was lucky, he could get another handful of silver equipment, and quickly take it and sell it.
