Miss Mu and the Canary

After coming out of the library, the sky has turned dark blue, it's almost time for Bai Yan to go back.

She has not yet lit a big candle to become Mr. Big, and there are many restrictions on going out.She came out today to find a messenger, but she didn't expect that by mistake, she would delay until this hour. If she went back without silver dollars, I'm afraid that Mama would be angry.

Rubbing the book wrapped in yellow paper in her arms, Bai Yan bit her lip.

If she was asked to ask Mr. Mu for money at this time, she would not be able to hold back her face no matter what.

Asking for money at this time not only humiliated herself, but also humiliated Mr. Mu.

If both parties are just acting on the occasion and treating it as a deal, of course she can ask for money without any burden.But if even a ounce of sincerity was mixed in, how could she open her mouth to sell her feelings?

The cool wind blows with the fragrance of flowers, and the crescent moon has already appeared, hooked on the corner of the thin cloud, and presents the moonlight to the world.

Bai Yan turned her face slightly, and only caught a glimpse of the moonlight on the shoulder of the person beside her.For some reason, my restless heart calmed down for a while, and floated with the wind in the fragrance of summer flowers, flowing quietly.

The moonlight is already so beautiful, why bother to disturb this rare peace by making noise about mundane affairs.

Walking side by side to the intersection, Mu Xing was about to wave for a rickshaw when he caught a glimpse of something, turned his head and said "please wait a moment" to Bai Yan, and then ran away.

Bai Yan stopped for no reason, but saw Mu Xing running all the way to the alley across the road, squatting down in front of a grandmother.After a while, she got up and ran back.

Her speed was too fast, Bai Yan only had time to see a handful of white in her hand flashing in front of her eyes, her nose was already lingered by the fragrance of flowers.

Mu Xing said with a smile: "Just now I smelled the fragrance of gardenias all the way. I searched all the way, but I didn't expect it to bloom in the garden or by the side of the road. It was hidden in the alley." Holding the flowers, she was unexpectedly a little shy , "People say that famous flowers match beautiful women, and there is a lingering fragrance in this alley. I don't know if you like it or not."

Bai Yan reached out to take the flower, sniffing lightly with the tip of her nose.She said softly: "Many people in the world say that the fragrance of gardenia is strong and common, and they think it is not high-end, but I only love its warmth. If I like it, why should it be noble?"

"That's the truth." Mu Xing agreed very much, "There are so many things the world has said, but they can't follow the rules and suit everyone's wishes. It's better to be self-willed in one's life."

Just when a rickshaw passed by by the road, Mu Xing waved his hand to stop the car, and said to Bai Yan: "It's getting late, I can't take Miss back in person, please pay more attention to safety on the road."

Bai Yan nodded and said a few polite words, she got into the car, Mu Xing paid the fare, the driver was about to leave, Mu Xing suddenly called to Bai Yan: "Miss Bai!"

Thinking that she was reluctant to part with her, Bai Yan hurriedly poked her head out: "What?"

Mu Xing asked: "Do you know the effect of taking vitamin injections?"

What she said was so endless that even the driver couldn't help turning his head to look at the two of them. Bai Yan was also confused, so she could only say: "I heard that some can cure colds and supplement nutrition? There is also a kind of vitamin C, It has a whitening effect."

This was originally the whitening formula that Mu Xing had suspected before in "Linglong". Mu Xing guessed that "Who was laughing" was Bai Yan, but he didn't know how to test it out.Just now when she thought of it, she hurriedly asked, even she thought it was ridiculous, but she didn't expect that Bai Yan really knew.

Regardless of the embarrassment, she asked again: "I don't know how Miss Bai knows such a method?"

Bai Yan said truthfully: "When I was at Lord Andrew's residence, I read a book, the title of which seems to be "Basic Knowledge of Western Medicine."

Mu Xing was immediately overjoyed.

This book was also mentioned in the article about Who Laughed!

Joyfully drawing a conclusion to his inference in his heart, Mu Xing said a few more polite words, trying to cover up his abruptness.

Bai Yan was confused by her inexplicable happiness, and she couldn't ask any questions. After a few gossips, the two separated.

The rickshaw swayed and moved forward.Bai Yan was still thinking about Mu Xing's strange question just now, unconsciously rubbing the book in her hand.Suddenly, my fingers felt a few strange bumps, unlike ordinary hard-shell books.

Frowning, she put the bouquet aside and unwrapped the yellow paper wrapping the book. Before she could take out the book, the rickshaw bumped and Bai Yan clearly heard a crisp crashing sound from the book wrapping paper.

Is it...

Unspeakable emotions suddenly appeared in her heart, and she hesitantly reached into the book wrapping paper.

one, two, three...

Five silver dollars, lying quietly in her palm, happened to be the price for a trip.It should have been put in by Mr. Mu when he packed the books in the library just now.

Under the moonlight, the silver dollar reflected a water-like light, dazzlingly bright.The fragrance of flowers drifts all the way, almost catching up with the people who have gone away.

Clutching the silver dollar in her hand tightly, Bai Yan leaned against the rickshaw as if exhausted, with the corners of her mouth curled up.

What a strange man.

Ordinary people come to have three sons, either to look for them or to remember them.But Mr. Mu is neither.

She could feel his curiosity, but it wasn't sharp or offensive.He shot generously, but he didn't intend to exchange it for anything.

Facing people like them, he politely seemed to be getting along with "normal people", but he was frank and undisguised, and he was not ashamed at all to ask for flowers and ask for willows.

This kind of guest is not only her, she dares to guarantee that there are dozens of big gentlemen in Yuhua Shuyu, and none of them have ever met.

But... She should have thanked him for his magnanimity, but why did she feel unwilling at this time?

Not reconciled to his wanting nothing, not reconciled to his politeness, not reconciled... He clearly gave her affection, but he was so "businesslike".

Letting go, she took out the handkerchief in the kun bag, neatly put the five silver dollars in the handkerchief, and tucked it in the skirt of her clothes.
