"Hmm..." Mu Chutong choked for a long time before saying, "Does your family have a mine?"

Shixian also replied plainly: "We do have a few mines in our gang. But they can't be counted as my family's."

Mu Chutong shook his head and said with a smile: "That's not possible, have you been rich since you were a child?"

These words touched on Shixian's past.Shixian always avoided this, but at this moment he smiled and replied, "I am."

When Shixian answered in this way, Mu Chutong found that he had asked a more private question, which was a bit embarrassing.

Mu Chutong could only nod in embarrassment, and said, "That, that's pretty good, pretty good."

Shixian smiled and asked, "What's so good about it?"

"It's not good to have money?" Mu Chutong said with a smile, and deliberately changed the subject, "Look at me, I can't do it. I'm running around for that money every day. Sigh!"

Shixian said again: "I only asked because you were wearing thin clothes. I also heard from Dao Ai that you asked about a scarf made of ring wool?"

Mu Chutong's face changed slightly, but he quickly laughed: "Yes, you know my accessories, and there are not many valuable ones. Just point to this for the winter!"

Shi Xian said, "That's true, it's also cold in Fuqu Township. I'm just sorry that I didn't find that scarf for you."

"It's okay. What's the point of being sorry? I've already bought a new one." Mu Chutong said, "Wool blended ones are also good."

"Of course that's good." Shixian opened the box at hand, "I'm sorry, but I've prepared a ring wool scarf for you."

Mu Chutong was startled, and saw a water-red scarf in the box.

"Thank you." Mu Chutong said stiffly, "It's hard for you to think about it! Thank you so much. I dare not accept such an expensive gift."

"Then Jiuman gave it, why do you dare to accept it?" Shi Xian smiled slightly, eyes bent.

"Ah... you... what do you mean?" Mu Chutong's heart was pounding - he knew that I had secretly contacted Jiuman?

Shi Xian said, "The ring you mentioned was probably given to you by Jiuman."

—Ah, so that's what he was talking about.

Mu Chutong asked, "Is this what that boy Nanjiao said?"

Shixian smiled and said nothing, neither admitting nor denying it.

Mu Chutong thought to himself: I don't know how much Nanjiao said!

Ring velvet is famous for its light texture, so it must be light and soft.

Shi Xian picked up the scarf in the box, and he shook the water-red scarf lightly. It was as thin as a veil, like a red mist in the night wind.

"Is this one of mine not as good as that one?" Shi Xian asked.

Mu Chutong said: "This, how can this be compared? They are all top-notch craftsmanship."

"Then do you like beige more?"

Mu Chutong said, "They're all good things, so don't care what color they are?"

Shixian put the scarf around Mu Chutong's shoulders, and when his hands passed over Mu Chutong's shoulders, there was a hint of cold fragrance.Shixian smiled and said, "That's good. The wind, cold and dew are heavy here, and the weather is harsh. It doesn't matter what color it is if it can keep you warm?" Said, Shixian tied the scarf around Mu Chutong's chest.

The cold wind blowing at night made Mu Chutong shiver.

He became more awake, looked at Shixian peacefully, and said, "I've already bought a scarf, this one might as well be worn by Nanjiao. He doesn't have one."

Shixian's expression didn't change much, the corners of his mouth were raised slightly, as if he was a bit cold, but no matter how he described it, his smile always seemed kind and gentle: "This is for you, it's yours."

"But... Nanjiao..."

Shixian said, "This is not suitable for him."

Mu Chutong frowned: "Whether...is it suitable or not, isn't it up to him?"

"No, it's not. It's not him who has the final say, nor is it you who have the final say." Shixian stood up, the skirt of the red monk's robe fluttering outside the residual lotus fish pond, "This is the Chu Gang, I have the final say. "The tone was still soft, like the scarf tied around Mu Chutong's shoulder.

Shi Xian was right, this is the Chu Gang, he has the final say.

What he says is what he says.

Nanjiao used a word to describe Shixian's position here before - life and death.

That's pretty accurate.

But as Jiuman said, Shixian is too pretentious, never likes to pose as a predator, and sometimes likes to dress himself as a victim.For Shixian to say "I have the final say", I am afraid that it is already the critical point between his "first courtesy" and "later soldier".

Mu Chutong frowned, and subconsciously bit his fingernails.

Shixian grabbed his hand: "Don't be like this, dirty."

"Ah..." Mu Chutong came back to his senses and withdrew his hand, "I'm going back first."

Shi Xian nodded slightly: "Go."

Mu Chutong returned to his room in a panic, probably because he was restless, and he was too busy to walk lightly. When he returned to the room to undress, he disturbed Nanjiao who was lying in the partition because of his excessive movements. woke up.

Nanjiao was very alert. He raised the gauze curtain and poked his head out. Seeing that it was Mu Chutong, he felt relieved. Then he became confused: "When did you go out? Why didn't I know?"

Mu Chutong thought to himself, it seems that he just sneaked out in the middle of the night to meet his roommate's dream lover and received an expensive gift...

Nanjiao had already got up from the bed, ran to Mu Chutong, grabbed the water-red scarf with one hand, touched two handfuls, and said, "Such fine cashmere! Such a true color! Where did you get it?" of?"

Mu Chutong seemed to think of something, so he asked as if to question: "Did you tell Shixian that I received Brother Jiuman's cashmere scarf before?"

"No." Nanjiao's eyes widened with an innocent face.

Mu Chutong frowned: "No? Think about it carefully? Did you accidentally slip your mouth?"

"Definitely not." Nanjiao untied the scarf around Mu Chutong's neck with one hand, let it play with it, and said, "I also know the seriousness. I am very careful about Brother Jiuman. When it comes to him, I always ask three questions. In front of Shixian, I can count the number of times I mentioned this name on my fingers! Do you think I'm an idiot?"

"I don't mean that either." Mu Chutong thought to himself, Nanjiao is indeed quite measured, so he felt a little strange, pulled out the chair and sat down again, "I asked Daoai about the whereabouts of that scarf before, and he said to replace it." I looked for it, but now they said they couldn’t find it, so they gave me this. During the conversation, I felt that they seemed to know that Brother Jiuman gave me that scarf.”

"It's not surprising." Nanjiao also pulled a chair and sat down, "He sees that your clothes are so shabby in private, how can you use such expensive accessories? You must be willing to give them to you! You and your family You don't get along, and you don't have many rich and powerful friends around you—isn't there a rumor that you two are ambiguous before? That can only be said to be a gift from Jiuman. Maybe he doesn't know, just to bluff you. , You have a guilty conscience, so you speak out.”

Mu Chutong felt guilty, and asked "Did Nanjiao say that?", which was tantamount to admitting, not only admitting that the scarf was given by Jiuman, but also indirectly admitting that there was indeed an affair between himself and Jiuman.

Mu Chutong's heart was in a mess, and he didn't know what to say. He just wanted to beat himself on the head, scolding himself for why he suddenly short-circuited?

However, the truth is that the driver who delivered the scarf to Mu Chutong was rescued by Shixian's people during the wildfire, and now he is a member of the Chu Gang, who regards Shixian as a life-saving benefactor, so Shixian learned about it. thing.

But neither Nanjiao nor Mu Chutong knew the reason for this.

Nanjiao rested her chin in one hand, casually put the scarf on her shoulder with the other, and said with a smile, "Actually, I think it's okay, right? Isn't he being polite to us?"

"Yeah." Mu Chutong couldn't express his worries directly, so he nodded weakly.

Nanjiao said, "However, this scarf of yours is pretty good, even better than the one given by Brother Jiuman before. But I don't think you like red ones, why don't you give it to me."

Mu Chutong smiled and said, "Ah... this, I mentioned it to them. They said it's not suitable for you."

"Why doesn't it fit?" Nanjiao took a selfie in the mirror, "I think it fits well. Everyone knows that I look best in red."

Mu Chutong looked at Nanjiao in the mirror, and said with a smile, "I think so too, but how could I say that if someone gave me something? Doesn't it seem that I despise other people's things?"

Nanjiao nodded: "That's true."

Mu Chutong continued: "Aren't you very familiar with Shixian? In my opinion, why don't you tell him yourself. If you are such a mess, he must have nothing to do with you."

Nanjiao chuckled, and said, "What do you mean I'm a 'nonsense'? I'm still a nonsense? I think it's that Gongzhen who looks respectful on the surface and is a nonsense in his heart?"

"Why are you talking about Gongzhen?"

Nanjiao grabbed Mu Chutong's hand and said, "Where's your Patek Philippe?"

"Hmm..." Mu Chutong was stunned, unable to speak.

Nanjiao waved his hands angrily, and said, "You think I'm blind? The watch you're wearing, after drinking tea for a while, it's in his hands!"

"Is it that conspicuous?" Mu Chutong smiled sarcastically.

"Of course it was conspicuous. I was about to die of anger at the time." Nan Jiao gave him a white look, "but I didn't say anything, otherwise it would really appear to be 'nonsense'."

Seeing that Nanjiao was angry, Mu Chutong hurriedly persuaded him, "He didn't ask for it from me, I lent it to him." Then, Mu Chutong took the watch back from Shixian from his pocket again. Take it out: "Well, actually he didn't want it either. He returned it."

Nanjiao's anger finally subsided, he put the scarf in his closet without authorization and went to sleep.

On the second day, Nan Jiao still woke up quite early.When Mu Chutong got up, he saw Nanjiao was already in front of the dressing table, and he was also startled: "The sun came out from the west today? You got up so early?"

Nan Jiao gave him a white look: "Isn't it just to send you off!"

It is really a great friendship to make Nanjiao get up early.

If Nanjiao wants to get up early, he will get up very early.Because he needs a lot of time for skin care, dressing up and matching.Mu Chutong wore a goose down jacket, a fur hat, a layer of long johns and a layer of black cotton trousers, and a pair of ugly snow boots.When Nanjiao saw her, she said with a look of disgust, "You're actually dressed so lightly?"

"Brother," Mu Chutong said angrily, "I'm going to take the train through the mountains, and I'll have to go through the snow after getting off the train, not to walk the red carpet! Of course, I want to be as comfortable as possible!"

Nanjiao said, "Is it so hard to earn money?"

As soon as Mu Chutong heard these words, tears came to Mu Chutong's eyes.

Making money is fucking hard work!
