Lost in the world

Chapter 20 Mercenaries

At night, the tentacles hidden in the darkness became restless.

Mo Qingxuan stood in front of the window, the bloody wind rushed towards him, and the starry night sky was silent.He closed the window, looked back at Xiao Liu who was sitting by the bed, and couldn't help laughing:

"I want to share a room with Ling Xiao so much. Do you want me to change with him next door?"

Xiao Liu said with a straight face, "Let's talk about business."

"Okay, let's talk about business."

Mo Qingxuan walked up to him and sat down, with a calm expression on his face, and said, "I've confirmed that the shipment is in Tanlang's hands."

"where is it?"

Compared to Xiao Liu's impatience, he didn't seem to be busy, and even teased him a little leisurely, asking instead, "Are you asking Tanlang, or that batch of goods?"

"I don't care about Tanlang. Where is that shipment?"

"could not find it"

"—then why did you come back?"

"Why, according to your opinion, if you can't find it, you can't come back?" Mo Qingxuan leaned on the chair in a relaxed posture, resting his chin with his hand, suddenly smiled, and said:

"Liuchuan Fangze ordered you to monitor me. Now, you can tell Liuchuan Fangze like this, just say, Mo Qingxuan has failed your trust and failed in the mission. Please ask him to hire someone else."

Apparently, it means quitting as a shopkeeper

"You—you, what do you mean?!"

The furious Xiao Liu jumped up with an unbelievable expression on his face.

"Are you going to betray your brother, this kind of ungrateful thing - you can do it?!"

He pinched a grape and put it in his mouth, and said with a smile, "Xiao Liu, how did you hear my meaning of 'betrayed Yanagawa'? Heaven and earth conscience, I never said that. I just said that I don't care about this matter." , besides, even if we find out the whereabouts of that shipment, you and I will not be able to move it away..."

At the end, I couldn't help but sigh.

After being silent for a while, Xiao Liu suddenly calmed down and said, "My lord brother has contacted me."

"Oh, really. Then what did he say?" Mo Qingxuan lowered his eyelids to cover the fluctuating light in his eyes.

"Say you can't find it, and the follow-up will be handed over to the mercenaries."

"Is that so..."

But he couldn't help muttering in his heart, he really had a trick.

"Who are those mercenaries?" Thinking this way, he subconsciously asked.But seeing Xiao Liu raised his chin with a haughty and disdainful look, he said in his mouth:

"Brother has specifically explained that he cannot tell you."

Mo Qingxuan didn't ask any more questions, looked at the sky outside the window, and said, "Go to sleep. Children can't go to bed later than ten o'clock."

Hearing the word "children", Xiao Liu immediately puffed up her cheeks unconvinced, but instead of getting angry, she stammered, calling Mo Qingxuan who was walking towards the door very uncomfortable:

"Wait, wait a minute, that——and, brother said, let you go back..."

Mo Qingxuan's thin and straight back froze immediately.The atmosphere suddenly became solemn, like the ice marks of "crackling" continuously extending from the calm lake water, and the surrounding air overflowed with a bit of threatening cold air. He seemed to be standing inside, and he couldn't help shivering, trembling all over, and then saw Mo Qingxuan Without saying a word, he walked into the bathroom and closed the door behind him.

At this moment, Xiao Liu hugged herself as if she was extremely cold, and lowered her head sullenly, showing her depressed mood where no one else could see.

As Xiaoyu expected, the breakfast was very rich.

There are five people sitting around an Eight Immortals table.Xiaoyu was copying a yellow croaker fish to pick a thorn, staring at the sleepy Xiaoliu stirring the porridge with a spoon, Ling Xiao hugged Phoenix's shoulder, opened his mouth, suddenly touched his face with a smile, and said narcissistically:

"Am I handsome and popular?"

Xiao Liu didn't lift her eyelids: "Why are you so windy this morning?"

"Hee hee, let me show you something, don't be too jealous ~~ I will be embarrassed."

I saw him reaching into his pocket and taking out a dozen... cards in slow motion?

——NO!Spread out on the table, there are more than a dozen small pornographic advertisements printed with seductive beauties.

Xiaoyu slowed down when picking fishbone: "..."

Xiao Liu disdained: "Oh"

"I don't think I'm handsome, but they all knock on my door, making me sleep bad at night. Alas, Xiao Liu is much luckier, and won't have such troubles."

Xiao Liu turned to look at Mo Qingxuan who was drinking porridge with his head down, and said coldly: "He is too arrogant, you teach him a lesson."

"Hey - you can't order Mo Qingxuan to join me just because of jealousy. Besides, Mo Qingxuan is someone you order casually."

Mo Qingxuan took out a tissue to wipe his mouth, stretched his legs and stood up, and asked Xiao Liu: "There is no business for me, can I travel around?"

"up to you"

"Ok"

When he got an affirmative answer, he immediately laughed like a spring breeze.

Xiaoyu immediately raised her hand: "Brother, wait for me for a while, where are you going, I'll take you there after dinner~"

Mo Qingxuan looked at Ling Xiao again, his eyes crooked.

"Why, look at me like that?"

Phoenix, who was pinching the spoon to eat the porridge, slowed down, and heard Ling Xiao bluff again: "Are you also jealous of my popularity? Oh, big brother, you are not bad-looking, just a little worse than me, really only one A little-"

Ling Xiao stretched out his little finger, making a very small pointed head.

Immediately afterwards, Mo Qingxuan smiled, reached into the pocket of his shirt, took out a dozen, and looked at the thickness——

"The girls here are so enthusiastic, they throw themselves on everyone. If it wasn't for Xiaoliu's presence, I wouldn't be able to bear it."

A dozen cards were laid out one by one, all of them were as fair as snow and as beautiful as flowers, at least forty cards.

"Pfft—" Xiaoyu laughed and sprayed rice

Xiao Liu sneered again: "Heh"

Ling Xiao was like a defeated fighting cock, a moment ago he was arrogant and arrogant, but now he bent his neck and said nothing, and his face was not very good-looking.

Mo Qingxuan tightened his lips as if holding back some deep and emotional emotions, and said in a joking tone: "I'm only jealous of the friend you have in your arms."

Ling Xiao shuddered all over his body: "What do you mean, what are you trying to do with me?"

He quickly recovered into a high-spirited flower-tailed fighting cock, and confronted Mo Qingxuan with his neck raised.

At this time, Mo Qingxuan put on a serious face, and taught fiercely: "Stop talking at the dinner table, eat quickly. Xiaoyu, don't eat so fast, chewing slowly will help digestion, you know?——Xiao Liu, stop staring at Ling Xiao, he Your face can't be eaten. You two are young, and it's time to grow your body. Eat more vegetables instead of meat, and be careful to grow into a big fat man!"

Then he turned around and asked Ling Xiao: "Do you like fat people?"

Ling Xiao didn't know why he asked this suddenly, but he still answered honestly: "I don't like it. Who would like a big fat guy~"

I saw Xiao Liu's chopsticks stretched out to the chicken nuggets bent, and turned to pick up a green leaf.

"I see, my brother is so long-winded..."

Phoenix has no sense of existence from the beginning to the end, and he is immersed in drinking porridge, while Ling Xiao helps to pick up the vegetables.

Such a beautiful scene of love and brotherhood made Xiao Liu feel so jealous that he threw his chopsticks: "I'm full! I'm going out."

"Brother, hiccup~ I'm full too."

Xiaoyu took Mo Qingxuan's hand and asked, "Is brother going to see flowers?"

"Listen to me today, you follow me."

Mo Qingxuan led her out of the guest house, leaving Ling Xiao and Phoenix to clean the dishes and wipe the table.

Ling Xiao was very reluctant: "..."

"Brother, where are you taking me?"

"Do you want to send you a beautiful dress?"

"—Yes! Yes!"

Xiaoyu was bouncing around, like a restless ear-waggling rabbit.Passing by a bustling street, I saw a graceful maid in a bright and clean window. She wore a short and thin coat, and her breast-length skirt was embroidered with gorgeous peony flowers. Silk, with fluttering sleeves, looks luxurious and graceful and very elegant.Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she threw herself on the window in amazement:

"What kind of clothes is this?~It's so beautiful!"

Mo Qingxuan had already entered the shop and called out: "Xiaoyu, come in and have a look."

"Wow~~ so many fairies!"

The moment she stepped through the door, Xiaoyu was stunned!The mouth was wide open, and the sparkling eyes turned around, as if opening the door to a new world.

"Hee hee, you are also a little fairy! Welcome to the Hanfu Museum."

"This is the clothes in the TV series. It's called 'ancient costume', right?"

"No, little sister, this is Hanfu."

Mo Qingxuan found a stool and sat down, smiling, and said, "I'll give you a set of skirts. You choose the one you like."

"--really? Haha--"

Xiaoyu jumped up and shouted: "Brother—I love you so much—"

"Shh, be quiet, don't disturb others."

"Uh-huh"

Xiaoyu hurriedly covered her mouth, blissfully happy, and went to try on clothes with her gentle sister in Hanfu.

Most of the guests in the Hanfu Hall are young girls, who come in twos and threes. When they enter the door, they see a handsome young man sitting in the corner. He has a gentle temperament and a dignified and upright sitting posture. At that time, he immediately became excited like a chicken blood, and whispered something.

Mo Qingxuan touched his neck subconsciously: What's the matter?

At this moment, I heard Xiaoyu shouting in my ear——

"elder brother--"

Turning his head to look over, he was stunned unconsciously.

The girl in fluttering white clothes turned around in a circle in front of her, her wide skirt was like layers of snow-white waves.She happily covered half of her face with a round fan, revealing a pair of shining eyes that seemed to be shining, and shouted again: "Brother——"

The appearance of her smile is not the alluring beauty in the pictures of ladies, but a kind of kindness and gentleness that makes people feel good and can't even look away.

"Come here, I'll braid your hair."

Xiaoyu was still restless, she jumped up and down, lifted her skirt and sat down.

"Brother still wears braids?"

"I'll give it a try"

He recalled the hairstyle tutorials he found just now, picked out one that wasn't too difficult, picked up the comb, and vaccinated while braiding the braids:

"If it doesn't look good, don't cry."

...But, it shouldn't be too bad.he thought uncertainly.

"My brother also has long hair, why did you cut it off?"

The two sat on the small bench, and you talked to each other. The kind store provided small hairpins, rubber bands, and two hand-woven hair ties as gifts, and they also gathered to watch.

After a while, Xiaoyu's legs became numb, and she asked, "Is brother alright?"

"Wait a second, um...almost, it's done."

When the work was done, Mo Qingxuan also felt numb in his legs, stood up, and saw a van parked in a hotel opposite the Hanfu Hall, and six tall and burly men came out one by one.He lowered his eyes, seemed to think for a moment, then walked to the cashier and said:

"Bill, please"

"Okay, sir. A set of 'Flying Flower Ling' skirt is 988 yuan, the same style of embroidered shoes is 108 yuan, and a pair of flowery silk is 69 yuan. The total is 1165 yuan. Would you like to pay in cash or by credit card?"

"...?!!"

At this moment, Mo Qingxuan took a breath, and said in his heart: Damn!robbery? !

When Xiaoyu heard this terrible number, her eyes widened in surprise, and she hurriedly grabbed the corner of his clothes, wanting to say - "It's so expensive, I don't want it anymore", but, I really like it...

Mo Qingxuan took out his wallet and took out one: "Swipe the card."

Smoothly brushing the tassels on Xiaoyu's head that swayed in the wind, she praised:

"It's so beautiful. This suit is so expensive, you must cherish it. You can only pay back the cost by wearing it a few times, you know?"

"..."

Xiaoyu nodded silently, then stretched out her arms and hugged Mo Qingxuan's waist, rubbing her cheek against his chest like a coquettish kitten.

"Okay. It's almost noon, let's go to eat. When it's time for dinner, there are too many people and we have to queue up."

"Um……"

She still tugged on Mo Qingxuan's clothes and whispered, "My sister-in-law never cared about me..."

The two of them crossed the busy street, and the sound was almost instantly covered by the harsh car horn and disappeared.Mo Qingxuan walked in front, and all kinds of curious and weird eyes kept being cast around him, which made Xiaoyu feel smug, walked with the wind, and said:

"They are all looking at me. It seems that my skirt is really pretty."

“People are nice too”

"Hee hee~ Brother is right, people are also pretty."

Holding her blushing cheeks in one hand, Xiaoyu followed Mo Qingxuan into a hotel opposite the Hanfu Hall. After a long while, she still felt her face was burning.

A waiter in a cheongsam came up and asked with a smile, "Sir, how many people? Do you have a reservation?"

"Two, no reservation. I want a private room."

"Okay, both of you, please follow me up to the third floor."

Xiaoyu secretly grabbed Mo Qingxuan's sleeve and whispered, "Don't go, it's very expensive."

Mo Qingxuan smiled reassuringly: "I have money."

"Come on. When you heard that the clothes cost more than 1000 yuan, your face turned green. If you spend another one or two thousand for dinner, you may have to ask that Mr. Liu Chuan for money again."

After getting along for such a long time, she finally figured out what happened to Mo Qingxuan: he was seriously injured and rescued by a Japanese devil named "Liu Chuan", and now he is working hard for him, which is equivalent to half a slave - no wonder Xiao Liu's attitude towards his brother is so indifferent The ones are rude, and all they earn are hard-working money, so they can't be spent casually.

Mo Qingxuan didn't know what she was thinking, and said while going upstairs: "Don't underestimate me, I can still get the money for a meal. Besides, this is the money Liu Chuan gave me, why not spend it?"

This fell into the ears of the waiter, who despised: the little boy who eats people's soft rice.

"You order first, I'll go to the bathroom."

"Good~"

Mo Qingxuan walked out of the room, returned to the first floor, and asked the lady at the front desk: "I just saw a friend of mine come in, can you tell me which room he is in? I'll go say hello."

He took out a photo from his breast pocket and presented it to the waiter leisurely, only to see that the photo was a handsome face pretending to be old and serious.

In the bright light and shadow, the corner of Mo Qingxuan's mouth curved up to reveal a reserved and refined smile, appearing polite, handsome, very...

Sincere and pure
