Chapter Seventy-One: The Unhappy Yang Xi
When the weight of the water accumulates to a certain point, the bamboo tube will rotate and the end of the bamboo tube will hit the rock.
The crisp sound of the bamboo tube came from the other end of the corridor, which was very pleasant.
In contrast, the seat where Kigen is now is filled with unbearable noise.
All in all, the child was also very disobedient during his rebellious period, but in the end he decided to go on the same line as his father. In addition, when he was in the police academy, he was taught by the chief instructor in both theory and practiceβ"
"- Please, don't talk about those shameful things."
"- Hahaha, that's pretty remarkable. More and more I feel that our wood is even less worthy. β
An old man sat in the main seat and laughed loudly, and directly across the table was the director of the cabinet with scars on his face and looking like a hooligan. The director's wife, who was wearing thick-rimmed glasses, covered her mouth and let out a "oh-he-he-" laugh.
"No, no, absolutely not. Miss Tendo is as beautiful as a doll, and my family's Atsuro fell in love with Miss Tendo at first sight. β
There shouldn't be any women who don't like to be praised for being beautiful, but it used to be a joke, and it was a bit difficult to accept it as a truth.
Nowadays, Mu Geng is in a high-end meal, and it should be "Pelican Lu Ting". The blind date venue, including Kigen, has a total of six people around the table. Although there were six people, only half of them participated in the conversation, and next to Tiantong Mu was Yang Xi, who was wearing a black windbreaker, sitting with an expression of not knowing what he was thinking.
Mu Geng, who didn't want to go on a blind date, originally expected that this Lord Yang Xi, who was invited by himself, would be disturbed, but who knew that he would be silent, like a dumb person!
Some of the annoyed wood couldn't help but admire the furnishings of the Japanese-style room, and when he noticed that the hanging scrolls were decorated with delicately carved mirrors, he couldn't help but stretch his neck to examine his appearance.
Today, I put on makeup and lipstick, and I have a hair ornament on my head, and the wooden graft in a kimono is reflected in the mirror.
Because the daughter of the president of Sima Heavy Industries, who I know, loves to wear kimonos, I naturally have a kind of resistance to kimonos. But it's cute, too.
Sure enough, I still have the best face with a 45-degree bevel. Mu Geng thought about it while slightly adjusting the angle of his face in the mirror, and then suddenly felt his gaze.
The glasses man sitting across from him looked at him with a smile. Mu Geng's cheeks were hot, and he hurriedly straightened his sitting posture.
There was one more person, in addition to those mentioned earlier, there were other people involved in the occasion.
Although the two sides hardly had a good conversation, he was a slimmer man than in the photo.
Atsuro in the counter. Dressed in a kimono embroidered with family crest, she has been sitting upright since then. Compared to five years ago, it has grown taller and more finely welded.
"Then we old people should leave first, so that the young people can talk freelyβ"
The lady of the counter, who had finally finished gossiping, said this, and immediately got up without listening to the other party's answer.
You don't need to say more. Yang Xi stood up very consciously. Although his appearance is easily regarded as a cute beautiful girl around fifteen or sixteen years old, the meaning of the other party's words just now is obviously to give the two protagonists who are on a blind date a separate space.
The group opened the paper door and walked out.
There was only silence in the room.
Mu sighed softly, and the cabinet bowed politely: "I'm sorry, my parents seem to be too excited." β
"It's been a long time, Mr. Closet."
"yes, it's been five years."
Mu Geng was still very nerve-wracking, unable to decide what attitude to put on towards the man in front of him.
"Well, I heard you've been promoted to police officer."
"Haha, I just joined the hall five years ago. It's still a rookie who can't figure out the situation. That's an improvement from that time. Speaking of which, you're the same person you were five years ago. It used to be just a cute grade, but now it's so beautiful that there's nothing to say. β
"Mr. Counter is really good, just say some polite words."
It's not acting this time. Mu even blushed and bowed his head.
"But Mr. Closer, why is it so sudden-"
"What do you mean?"
Feeling guilty for the dignified smile of the counter, Kigen continued, "I'm sorry for Mr. Counter. At the beginning, because I left the Tiantong family without authorization, I let the house receive a notice of breaking the marriage contract. Therefore, I think the government should be very clear. You marry me and can't establish a relationship with the Tendo family. I have betrayed the Tiantong family, and of course I will be regarded as an outsider by my family. Even though I still have the surname Tento, I already think that I have nothing to do with Tendo in my heart. β
If you can. Mu even wanted to drain all the blood of the Heavenly Child in his body and replace it with the blood of other families. But she didn't say the idea.
"Actually, I asked Mr. Shigaki to arrange this occasion, not in the hope of establishing a relationship with Tiantong."
"Why is that? Ling Zun is the director of police, and Mr. Cabinet is also a police officer, so he should be very popular with other women. β
"I can't forget it after I look at you, isn't that a reason?"
It was like a surprise speech, so that Mu couldn't help but blush.
"You love to laugh."
"I'm not kidding."
"In that case, it's even more embarrassing."
Even listening to the sweet words in the cabinet, a gloomy voice still appeared somewhere in Mu Geng's heart.
There was also a period when he was innocent and believed in Cinderella's story.
However, Prince Charming's dream of taking a fancy to himself and saving himself from a desperate situation has been completely awake since the day his parents were devoured. Even if there really is a prince charming or a magician, he can't bring his parents back from the dead.
Mu Geng straightened his back and straightened his back: "I survived to avenge Tiantong." β
She decided to change her tactics. Pretending to beautify herself, looking at each other - she hated the nature of blind dates in the first place, so she told herself that it was time to tell the truth.
"I know very well."
"Huh?"
The sound of the bamboo tube slamming its head against the rock was heard again.
"Of course I understand Miss Tento's thoughts."
"In that case, are you still on a blind date with me?"
"Yes. To be honest, I think I might have what it takes to help Miss Tendo. β
"What do you say?"
Mu couldn't help but lean towards the table, and at this time, the intellectual face of the cabinet suddenly showed a smile, and pointed outside and said, "Let's talk while walking, right?" β
Mu could only nod his head naturally.
Take a walk along the verandah to the garden with small white boulders outside. In the depths of the garden is a small pond with a red-lacquered arch bridge and a balustrade decorated with orbs.
Dropping bait from the balustrade of the arched bridge, the koi fish gradually gathered, and the water surface seemed to be a kaleidoscope of colors.
"And about the topic just now?"
Even if you feel that you have been baitted by the other party. Kigen still decided to pretend that he was not interested.
"Miss Tiantong, let's omit the details, in short, our cabinet house, in fact, the opinion of Tiantong is not very positive."
Mu Geng's eyebrows twitched. She sprinkled bait on the fish and said without looking back, "What a plan." Tiantongjia is a financial giant who has thoroughly implemented elite education since childhood. Wanting to trouble Tiantong is the same as finding trouble with the country. Like many of the enemies of the past who have been secretly buried in trying to challenge the Tendons, your people will be defeated. β
"If you challenge head-on, you might end up in that kind of situation. However, if it is not prepared, it is still possible to let the impregnable fortress fall. For example, with your approach, assassinate and take down the head of the Tiantong Ju Zhicheng faction. β
Snap - Lithium fish jumps from the water.
"How much do you know?"
"It's just a rumor."
Mu Geng turned his head to look at the cabinet: "I'm glad you're willing to help, but this is my personal battle." I don't want to be taken advantage of. β
"Please take advantage of me as much as possible. I'm not going to take advantage of you. β
Mu Geng frowned: "This kind of thing sounds really uncomfortable. What exactly do you want from me? Let's just tell us about it. β
The handle of the cabinet rests on his chin and poses as if he is thinking.
"Okay. I'll fix it, you have what I want. β
The cabinet suddenly hugged Mu Geng's waist and held her hand with the other hand. The other party's handsome face pulled closer, and Mu couldn't help but be moved.
"You can't help myself. It's all to blame for your beauty. If you don't like me, please pick up the sword. Otherwise I-"
The face between the cabinets continued to approach, and the wood set aside his cheeks that had become as red as maple.
"You've seen too many Shakespearean plays."
"That's true."
The body temperature he felt when he was held hard by a man surprised Mu Da.
Obviously, the man in front of him is his first love, why is he being hugged by the other party now. Instead, there is a strong feeling of nausea that wants to kick the other person away?
Suddenly the handsome face that even he envied when he reached out to help when he was the most wolf and most in need of help, Mu Geng suddenly felt a panic, and reached out to push the chest between the cabinets.
"- Now, please let me go."
Hear her say that. The other party didn't force her.
The cabinet took something out of his pocket and stuffed it into Mu Geng's hand.
Startled by the cold, metallic texture of her palm, she opened it to reveal an object that reflected a golden glow in the sunlight.
"What is this?"
"Pocket watch. Open it up and take a look. β
Mu Geng opened the solid gold cover as he said. Opened his mouth slightly in surprise. The long and short hands are made of yellow gold, and the high-end dial is surrounded by diamonds, and the pocket watch reflects the sunlight to create an intense glow like a flood. Stimulates Kigen's eyes.
"Is this for me?"
"If you're willing to take it, I'll be happy if you don't waste this in vain."
If it was before, Mu who was almost poor and crazy would definitely accept it happily, but after she was materially satisfied, she would no longer be attracted by these foreign things. Hawkers~ This is also the meaning of the so-called "boys are poor, girls are rich" in modern parents.
The children of the poor should be in charge of the family early, and the men should be self-reliant.
Only boys who know the embarrassment of life will find a way to get ahead and work hard to make money when they grow up.
As for the rich girls, they will not be deceived because of some small profits.
I have to say that the checks that Yang Xi has been taking out continuously in recent times have also made Tiantong Mu even more immune to these things.
The 10 million yen check in his pocket may not be able to buy this gold-looking gold watch full of artistic atmosphere, but Kigen knows that although it is only a verbal agreement, he will not be short of money from now on. Is there anything more promising than the head of state on the list?
"I'm sorry, this is too expensive for me to accept."
"That's not a problem, I like you. No matter how precious it is, I am willing to give it to you. β
"But I don't like you."
Mu Geng, who was in an irritable mood, said something that surprised even himself, "I'm sorry, I was a little excited just now. β
"No, I'm not supposed to push you too hard. It seems that we will need some time to get along and get to know each other. I am sure that I will make you accept me. β
Speaking of which, the two of them were not in the mood to continue communicating.
On the way back, Mu Geng kept asking himself, why didn't he agree to him?
In any case, his life is like a stone on the side of the road, and this body only needs to be maintained until the remaining four Tiantong are buried.
Since you are born with a beautiful face and body, isn't it just right to use it as a condition for the transaction?
Take advantage of others, be used by others.
Is Lord Yang Xi also using me?
couldn't help but glance at Yang Xi beside him, and a tingling suddenly appeared in his heart.
- Strange? Is this how it feels to be in love?
On the way, she was invited to her company as a guest by Tiantong Mu Geng, and Mu Geng found that there was no one in the company.
Since the end of the "Third Battle of Tokyo", the two initiators of her and Rentaro have been sent to the Red Eye Demon School to go to school, and it can also reduce the food expenses of the two people. Of course, Mu Geng will not say that this is the main reason
"It's strange, Satomi-san doesn't know where to go. I'm sorry, Lord Yang Xi, I don't take care of you too much. β
I have to say that Tiantong Mu in a kimono is indeed more like a lady, although she is.
After making a cup of tea for Yang Xi, she changed back into the uniform of the usual Meihe Girls' School.
"Ah~ much easier."
"What, don't you like to wear a kimono?"
Taking a sip of tea, Yang Xi asked with a smile.
"That's not it, it's just that some guy I hate is wearing a kimono all day long and the kimono is worn on special occasions, and if I wear it all the time, then I can't be exhausted?!"
"Hehe, that's what I said. By the way, how about this blind date? Was it a success? β
"What? Does Lord Yang Xi care about the outcome of my blind date? Mu Geng asked with a smile.
"That's not it, it's just that after leaving, I felt the darkness in your heart rise unusually high at some point, and I felt a little curious. Did that guy do something that made you feel unpleasant? β
"That guy?"
"I'm sorry, I forgot the name of the person you were blind to."
Yang Xi shrugged, although Mu Geng was not his own woman, but he still felt very unhappy that someone was picking up girls by his side. Especially Mu Geng is still his internal well, bodyguard. (To be continued......)
PS: Chapter 70 is harmonized, under review, although I don't know what's wrong.
