Chapter Forty-Eight: The Water of the Hidden Spring

Mu Xichun never said a word along the way. Twenty minutes later, the car entered a high-end community, and I was a little stunned when I looked at the high-rise buildings in front of me.

I thought that Mu Xichun could only find me a cheap ordinary house at most, but I didn't expect her to rent a house for me here.

You must know that this is the second only to the existence of Cuiweiju Villa in the city, and it can be seen from afar with the villa area. Those who can settle down here are either rich or expensive, the housing prices can be imagined, and the rent is naturally visible.

Mu Xichun parked the car and walked straight to the elevator hall of a building without looking at me, I was full of suspicions, but it had reached this point, and I could only keep up and take one step at a time.

The elevator stopped on the twenty-fifth floor, Mu Xichun got out of the elevator, took out the key from his bag, opened a door, looked back at me and said, "This is it!" ”

Seeing that my frightened expression aggravated my tone and said, "Go in!" ”

I was nervous and carried my suitcase inside. When I entered the room, I found that the house was nearly 200 square meters, not only with all kinds of household appliances, but also with new decoration and unique design, which showed that the owner was quite tasteful.

I looked around at the extravagant space, touching the milky leather sofa, and my heart panicked.

"This ...... This place! You...... Do you think I can afford to rent it? "I said with a knot in my tongue.

"Anyway, I've been paying the rent for half a year, it's definitely impossible to check out, you have to live here!"

"I can tell you, it's too expensive, I won't rent it, don't you want to use me as a big wrongdoer, the house is rented by you, it's not me, I'll find a new place by myself!" After saying that, he wrung up his suitcase and walked out.

Mu Xichun leaned against the door to block my way, and said with a contemptuous smile: "Look at what scares you!" Okay, so tell me how much is the rent of the house you used to live in? ”

"I don't need money to live in a warehouse!" I didn't even want to blurt it out.

Mu Xichun saw that I deliberately misinterpreted her meaning, her face was a little gloomy, and she looked like she wanted to have a seizure but tried her best to hold back.

"You know what I mean, I'm talking about warehouses?"

"Two ...... Two thousand five! Seeing that she was angry, I hurriedly changed my words.

"Well, this house will be two thousand five, and the rest will be the benefits provided by the company! I'm leaving. ”

"What do you mean...... It's true? ”

I couldn't believe it, although I haven't lived in such a nice house, but I still have some money in my mind about the rental price.

With my income, if I want to live in a house like this, I'm afraid I will only be able to pay the rent.

If it is really as Mu Xichun said, only give me two thousand five, then this benefit is too great.

Mu Xichun glanced at me with disdain, put down the key and turned to leave.

I stood in the doorway and watched her walk into the elevator for a long time before she came to her senses. I don't understand this matter, but so far it seems that not only did she not punish me for my part-time job, but also helped me solve a real problem, which is what makes me feel confused.

I don't believe that she is doing this as she said, in order to ensure my work status and avoid causing damage to the company, then her purpose is really intriguing.

I thought back and forth, trying to find some clues in some of the details I had overlooked, but in the end I didn't have the slightest clue.

I looked around at this luxurious space and sighed, think about it, forget it, since you can't figure it out, don't think about it, since you come to it, since people give such a good benefit, how can you not accept it.

I looked at all the rooms, the beds in the master bedroom and the two auxiliary bedrooms were all available, the kitchen was fully equipped, and even the plants on the balcony were bright and eye-catching.

If it weren't for the fact that what happened just now was too real, I really couldn't believe that I would be able to live in such a house one day, and it was no wonder that Mu Xichun didn't let me bring too many trivial things, which seemed really redundant now.

After simply putting the things I brought, I stayed on the sofa and lit a cigarette, and the cool breeze in the air conditioner made me feel an illusory comfort.

After my spirit relaxed, I thought of a question, how did Mu Xichun know about my work in the bar and my living problem.

I wouldn't believe it if she sent someone to investigate me, because it wasn't her style, and it wasn't necessary for me, an employee who was going to leave soon.

I thought of Anne again, Anne went to the company to find Mu Xichun in order to help me solve this matter a few days ago, could it be that she told Mu Xichun?

Thinking about it, it is entirely possible for her to tell her about my embarrassment in order to make Mu Xichun accept that she will pay off the debt for her. Thinking about it, it seems that this is the only possibility.

Thinking of Anne, I was a little melancholy, thinking that this time Anne misunderstood me because of my housing problem, and now that this problem has been solved, I feel the need to tell Anne, so I took out my mobile phone and dialed Anne's number.

The phone rang and I told Anne a brief overview of what had happened today.

"Is it the house that Mr. Mu arranged for you?" Anne was silent for a few seconds and asked.

"yes, I wonder how she knows?" I asked, intentionally or unintentionally.

Anne was silent for a while and said, "I told her last time, I wanted to help you pay back the money and let you go sooner, but she didn't agree. She didn't embarrass you, did she? ”

"She didn't embarrass me, she just asked me to live in a new place," I said truthfully.

"Brother!" Anne's tone suddenly became soft.

"I've been thinking about it carefully in the past few days, maybe I didn't do it properly enough and ignored your feelings. If I solve the problem like Mr. Mu, it won't make you so embarrassed, will you blame me? Anne reproached herself.

Anne's words make me feel a little distressed, I am afraid that only a kind person like her in this world can still find a reason for such a thing.

"Don't say that, Anne, you're only trying to help me. You're not wrong, so how can I blame you. ”

"I can only blame me for not being angry, and always letting you worry about me. I promise you, when I quit, I will definitely find a job and live seriously. "I also said with some emotion.

"Hmmm! Brother, I believe in you! Anne's tone became firm.

"Okay Annie, you must take care of yourself in the hot weather, and I will pick you up when you come back!"

Anne snorted, I just wanted to hang up the phone Anne said: "Brother, in fact, I think Mr. Mu is not as impersonal as you said, although she looks strong on the surface, but it can be seen from this incident that she is actually very reasonable!" Could it be that you have some misunderstanding about her? ”

I laughed secretly in my heart, how can you understand this woman, Mu Xichun, I just offended her without knowing her identity, so she declared her personal vendetta and arranged me to be by her side to give me small shoes to wear, how can this be as simple as a simple misunderstanding, but this matter can't be told to Annie.

So he said perfunctorily: "Anne, don't worry, I will handle my relationship with her!" ”

Anne didn't say anything more, just said that she knew and hung up.

Remembering what Anne had just said to believe me, I couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

Over the years, Anne has always believed in my words, but my promises are often never fulfilled in the end, but Anne never seems to be disappointed in me, and still has full confidence in me.

On the contrary, I became more and more disappointed in myself, and I felt that I had failed to live up to her trust.

Since moving into the new place, my sleep quality and spirit have improved significantly, and I seem to feel that even my quality of life has improved qualitatively.

Every day in and out of such a high-end residence, I can't help but feel some false pride, as if I have become a high-end person like everyone else.

Although I understand that this house has little to do with me, I am just a straw bale with a glossy appearance. It seems that human nature is really ugly.

Since this place is far from the bar, I have to run three places a day, especially in the morning I have to get up earlier than before.

Fortunately, I have a good means of transportation, which is not only convenient but also does not have to worry about traffic jams. These days, I have almost figured out the rules of the traffic police force on these road sections, so that I can always avoid the past well.

Mu Xichun didn't embarrass me these days, and as she said, she didn't punish me for violating the company's rules and working part-time outside without permission, which surprised me and made me feel a little relieved.

She didn't ask me about my private life anymore, and our relationship went back to not interfering with each other.

I came to work at the bar as usual that night, but what I didn't expect was that Mu Xichun suddenly appeared in the bar again.

She came at the busiest time of the bar, and I was serving drinks to customers at the bar and didn't see when she came in.

By the time I found her, she was already sitting on a stool in front of the bar, still with an unfathomable smile on her face.

I handed the drink to the waiter and said, "Why are you here?" "Since the band at the bar was performing, I raised my voice and said to her.

She glanced at Xiao Li, the bartender who was bartending, and said to me, "Do you know how to bart?" ”

"What flavor do you want to drink? Just let my bartender mix it for you. ”

"Whatever! But I want you to tune in! She looked at me with a slightly mischievous expression.

I'm a little suspicious of what tricks this woman wants to play, but recently I've found that I'm getting more and more confused about her routines, and I don't bother to ask her if she's a demon or a ghost, and if she wants to commit murder, she will always show her fangs.

I took the bartending utensils in Xiao Li's hand, poured some wine into it, and shook it pretending to be using the half-hung bartending technique I learned from Xiao Li.

Mu Xichun watched my movements outside the bar with great interest, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, which made me feel uncomfortable.

When I brought the wine to her, she looked down with a hesitant expression, as if she was hesitant to drink it.

"What kind of wine is this?" She asked.

"Naturally it's good wine!" I didn't answer the question.

"Don't you all like to give every glass of wine you make a name? Does this have a name? ”

I didn't expect that an eldest lady like her would understand the tradition of this kind of bar, which impressed me.

"Of course!" I thought for a while and said, "I am called the water of the Hidden Spring, do you dare to drink it?" ”

"The water of the deep spring? Do you think I'm a demon or a monster? ”

I laughed: "Do you dare to drink it?" "I think you're self-aware.

Mu Xichun glanced at me with disdain, picked up the wine glass and took a sip. I watched her silently and waited for her to come out, but she couldn't help but squirt, but she frowned and finally swallowed.

I applauded and gave a thumbs up and said, "It's rare, it's really courageous!" ”

"What kind of wine is this? Why is it so bitter? Mu Xichun said while holding back retching.

I glanced at her with a little disdain and said, "This is medicinal wine, it is bitter but it can nourish the liver and stomach, and it is good for the body, especially for women like you who are prone to tantrums!" ”

This is true, although my original intention was to let her have some foreign appearance, because this medicinal wine Xiangdong had given me to drink, I knew that its taste was extremely bitter, but it had a tonic effect on the liver, so I took it out for her to drink, but I didn't expect her to really hold back and not vomit.

"Really?" Mu Xichun was a little puzzled.

"Of course, do you feel the warmth of your five organs?" I say it with certainty.

Mu Xichun touched his chest with his hand, as if he was seriously feeling the changes inside, and then looked up at me and nodded seriously.
