Chu Zhishui finally surrendered to Xin Yunmao's nagging. She took the mineral water he handed over and drank it perfunctorily to moisten her dry throat. Then she felt a little thirsty and continued to drink slowly.
Xin Yunmao was relieved to see this. He waited for her to finish drinking the water, took the mineral water bottle and helped her hold it in her hand.
Chu Zhishui was still holding the ginseng certificate in her arms. The three ginsengs were all identified as wild ginsengs. Detailed information will be noted on the certificate, which is equivalent to the exclusive identity of ginseng. These wild ginsengs have successfully passed the data screening and will be sent to the auction for bidding. After
the man and the demon finished their business, they met the returning Boss Peng.
Boss Peng had already walked around the venue and greeted his familiar friends. He said with regret: "Xiao Chu, you guys are just a little short this time. I just saw another ginseng that seems to weigh more grams than yours. Maybe it is this year's 'Ginseng King'." The ginseng
selected for the auction will be exhibited in the venue and displayed through the display cabinet for those who want to bid. Boss Peng came here to collect ginseng, so he naturally walked around without stopping and felt all the ginseng clearly.
Chu Zhishui was stunned: "Just a little short?"
"Yes, what a pity." Boss Peng said, "It has been put on display in the venue. I will take you to have a look."
On the counter in the center of the venue, a wild ginseng was placed in the center, with its ginseng roots spread out under the light and fixed to the bottom plate. The ginseng has round buds with spiral-like horizontal lines on the surface. The roots are clearly spreading, and the ginseng looks very old.
There are many people around the counter, and they are all paying attention to this ginseng, and they come closer to observe it from time to time.
Chu Zhishui has no ability to identify ginseng. She can only see that this ginseng is slightly larger than the one in the bureau. Of course, the difference is not much when viewed with the naked eye. The main reason is that ginseng is sold by gram, and in fact, it is only a little.
Xin Yunmao frowned slightly when he saw the ginseng. He carefully identified it and then slowly raised his eyebrows.
"Xiao Chu, don't be too disappointed." Boss Peng comforted, "If I were to bid for ginseng, I would probably bid for yours, not necessarily this one. Your ginseng is better in shape, but it can't compare to this one in gram weight."
Chu Zhishui was curious: "Isn't it that the heavier the better?"
"Of course not, it's easy to be cheated, let's change places to talk." Boss Peng looked around, he looked at Liu Xia who was surrounded by the crowd not far away, and winked slightly, "This is someone else's territory, it's not appropriate to talk here."
Liu Xia is the seller of this year's "Ginseng King". It is said that he is a ginseng dealer from outside the area, but Boss Peng is not particularly familiar with him. He looks to be in his thirties or forties, with a pointed face and monkey cheeks, wearing a straight suit, and now surrounded by other people, he is talking about his ginseng.
Boss Peng led his men to a corner, avoiding Liu Xia and others far away. After making sure that no one was eavesdropping, he spoke: "Ginseng is a complicated matter and it is easy to misjudge it. I don't mean anything else. There is nothing wrong with that ginseng, but it just looks a little weird."
Chu Zhishui: "A little weird?"
"Yes, it might be my sixth sense. I can't tell." Boss Peng shook his head. "Anyway, if I need it urgently, I won't bid for this ginseng, I will bid for your one. It's lighter in weight but safer, so don't regret it. Maybe someone will feel the same as me and the final transaction price will not be bad."
Chu Zhishui smiled: "It doesn't matter. It's good to get the valuation you said."
Boss Peng said hundreds of thousands last time, which was far beyond Chu Zhishui's expectations. Logically speaking, wild ginseng and forest ginseng don't generate returns so quickly. They need many years of investment. If it weren't for Xin Yunmao's demonic aura, the bureau might not have made this much money this year.
Xin Yunmao listened quietly, and suddenly said, "He did something to that ginseng."
Chu Zhishui turned around and looked at him.
Boss Peng was puzzled: "Huh?"
"It should be some kind of trick to make the appearance better. It will probably last for one or two years, and then it will return to its original appearance." Xin Yunmao said in a calm voice, "You are related to the ginseng demon, so you look weird."
Boss Peng and the ginseng demon have an agreement that the latter will help the former's ginseng business. In the end, the one who knows ginseng best is still ginseng.
"One or two years?" Boss Peng was stunned. "But the shelf life of ginseng is usually two to three years if it is not processed, and it can only be kept in the refrigerator for a little longer."
Xin Yunmao sneered, "So he timed it well, knowing that this way he wouldn't be exposed."
He just discovered the trick on the ginseng, and it seems that Liu Xia also has his own tricks, wanting to make a fortune by making a fake.
"Indeed, if this kind of ginseng is to be used, it is estimated that it will be a big event at home, and whether the ginseng is useful or not may not be investigated." Boss Peng suddenly realized that some people use ginseng when they are seriously ill. To be honest, if it is a difficult and complicated disease, relying solely on ginseng is estimated to be useless.
Chu Zhishui glanced in the direction of the counter and said hesitantly, "But they have all been identified and cannot be taken out now."
The ginseng sent to the auction is uniformly exhibited and preserved. If it is accidentally lost or stolen, not only will there be insurance compensation, but the agency will also have to take responsibility. They can't explain this to anyone, and the relevant agencies will also be confused.
Xin Yunmao pondered for a moment, snapped his fingers, and said calmly, "Then let it change back at the right time." It
's just a trick. They can't allow Liu Xia to pass off inferior products as good ones, and they can't be allowed to change it back to its original state.
When leaving the venue, Chu Zhishui also saw three ginsengs from the Observation Bureau. They were carefully brought out by the staff and displayed in the counter for others to observe. If anyone is interested in it, they will attend the auction tomorrow and bid on the spot.
The next day, the auction site was packed with people, and the staff took out the ginseng in order according to the numbers and organized the auction.
Boss Peng, as a well-known boss, sat in the front row and bid for ginseng with others. He raised his sign from time to time, and occasionally muttered to himself, as if he was calculating the price-performance ratio. If the price was pushed too high, he would put it down at the appropriate time.
Chu Zhishui and Xin Yunmao came to sell ginseng. If they didn't buy ginseng, they would sit in the back row. They actually saw Yu Jingzi and Lin Yue.
The seats of both parties were not far away. Yu Jingzi nodded to them stiffly, and Chu Zhishui returned the greeting politely, without much communication.
"Okay, 300,000 once, 300,000 twice..."
"310,000! Now it's 310,000!"
The dust settled under the gavel.
"Congratulations on the deal!"
The sound of deals was heard from time to time in the venue. Two wild ginsengs weighing about 7 grams in the observation room were sold for 300,000 and 310,000 respectively. Chu Zhishui handed the relevant certificates to the staff. After all the procedures were completed smoothly, the money would be deposited into the company account.
The host excitedly said: "Next is the 'Ginseng King' of the third Danshan Auction. The starting price is 600,000. Please invite the staff to come on stage to show..."
Liu Xia in the front row was energetic and straight-backed. He seemed to have been waiting for this moment for a long time, just to see how much money he could get this time.
Perhaps because the "Ginseng King" was too grand, the staff did not show up for a long time, and there was a brief silence in the venue.
Some people in the venue were impatient and began to whisper. Boss Peng touched the signs intermittently, and seemed to have no interest in the gimmicky "Ginseng King". He rubbed his temples and prepared to rest for a while.
The host looked backstage from time to time. He sighed helplessly: "It seems that the 'Ginseng King' is difficult to invite. Everyone, please be patient."
After a while, someone jumped onto the stage in a flash, whispered a few words to the host, and then ran away in a hurry.
The host was stunned after hearing this, then quickly adjusted his state and said with a smile: "Sorry, the number of the 'King of Ginseng' reported at the auction just now was a bit wrong, so I was delayed backstage. Let us reintroduce this year's 'King of Ginseng', the weight is 223 grams..."
Off the stage, Lin Yue slapped Yu Jingzi's thigh: "Master, it's our turn."
Yu Jingzi said nonchalantly: "It's not this one, I didn't choose the 'King of Ginseng', otherwise how can I get a bargain."
"It's this one, it's this one." Lin Yue said anxiously, "Listen, the numbers are all the same!"
On the other side, Chu Zhishui was stunned when she heard the number. She lowered her head to check the certificate and asked doubtfully: "Is this our number?"
The 223-gram wild ginseng from the Observation Bureau suddenly became the "King of Ginseng" and was now brought out by the staff to participate in the auction.
A moment later, a staff member with a work ID came and quietly explained the situation to Chu Zhishui, asking her to go through the formalities.
The host had already announced the start of the bidding, but Liu Xia was shocked when he saw this. He hurriedly stopped the staff and asked, "No, this is not mine. Did you make a mistake? This is not my 'Ginseng King'."
The other party said in a businesslike manner, "Mr. Liu, please come to the back with us. There seems to be something wrong with your ginseng."
In the backstage, the ginseng in the box looked the same as yesterday, but it inexplicably became shriveled, as if it had suddenly lost its spiritual energy, and looked listless, and even the gram weight had decreased a lot.
"We conducted the final round of verification before the auction and found that your ginseng did not match the information, so we urgently replaced the 'Ginseng King' of this auction. If such ginseng is sent outside, it will have an impact on this auction and even affect the future development of Danshan Auction."
Liu Xia's face turned pale when he saw the ginseng turned back to its original form. He broke out in a cold sweat and angrily argued: "Impossible! This is not my ginseng. You swapped my ginseng. I will find a lawyer to sue you! Pay me!"
Staff: "We have perfect security and can provide surveillance photography. Whether it is the number when it is stored or the direction of the ginseng's root fibers, they are all exactly the same as when it was identified. You should also understand that it is difficult to fake the shape of ginseng when you sell it, and it all depends on these for identification. This ginseng is not much different from the shape of the photo when it was identified. The only difference is the fullness and gram weight..."
Of course, as long as there are a few pieces of information about ginseng, the value will be very different, otherwise it would not be so valuable.
"To be honest, we suspect that you falsified the ginseng during the appraisal, but this kind of thing cannot last too long, so the truth will be revealed in a day."
Liu Xia was hit in the sore spot and said angrily: "Bullshit! It must be you who stole my 'Ginseng King', I will never let you go!"
"If you are dissatisfied, we are willing to cooperate with the investigation, but please also show more ginseng information, such as proof of its growth environment or purchase channel."
Appraisal agencies usually only look at the appearance of ginseng and issue certificates, but Liu Xia is now going to settle the account from scratch, and both sides must hand in evidence.
At the auction site, countless merchants who came here for the sake of fame competed to bid, including wealthy people who rarely study ginseng. These people are not in the ginseng business, maybe they just come to join in the fun. They don't necessarily go to the venue to see the exhibits, but directly bid for the best "Ginseng King" of this year. They are rich and they are eager to buy.
This is the publicity effect of the "Ginseng King". People who know the business pay the most attention to it, while those who don't know the business can only pay attention to it, and they can't tell the quality of other ginseng.
"One million for the first time! One million for the second time!"
"Okay, one million and five hundred thousand! This gentleman bids one million and five hundred thousand!"
"One million and eighty thousand! Now it's one million and eighty thousand!"
The auction will reach its most intense climax, countless people come out to bid, and strangers often raise their hands suddenly. Among them, Boss Peng and Yu Jingzi hold out the longest.
Chu Zhishui didn't expect Yu Jingzi to be so rich, and she looked at her strangely. Unexpectedly, the demon master and the human disciple would be interested in the ginseng of the Observation Bureau.
Xin Yunmao nodded to them, praising them: "Not bad, you are very sensible."
Chu Zhishui frowned: "Don't blindly drive up the price just because he is a god."
She almost suspected that Yu Jingzi was acting as a babysitter for the bamboo demon. The other day, he said that they could choose from his own shop.
Yu Jingzi had no words to say: "No, you two misunderstood. We really need this."
He fell in love with this ginseng at first sight yesterday, and was happy that it was not the "Ginseng King" who could get a bargain. Who would have thought that the auction would do this at the last minute and catch him off guard!
"One million and one hundred thousand for the first time! One million and one hundred thousand for the second time!"
When Boss Peng heard 1.1 million, he slowly put down his hand, obviously no longer fighting for it.
Only Yu Jingzi and other wealthy businessmen were left to compete on the field. The price was still rising, but the growth rate was gradually slowing down.
"One million, one hundred and ninety thousand for the first time!"
"One million, one hundred and ninety thousand for the second time!"
"One million, one hundred and ninety thousand for the third time!"
"Congratulations on the deal! The final price of the 'Ginseng King' at this year's Danshan Auction is one million, one hundred and ninety thousand, breaking the previous record!"
Yu Jingzi stood up amid thunderous applause. He quickly nodded to everyone and then asked the staff to handle the formalities.
"He is richer than Hu Chenrui." Xin Yunmao raised his eyebrows. "Is it that profitable to recruit disciples?"
Chu Zhishui was not surprised: "The market is always like this. Our human training institutions also make money, such as art exam training."
She didn't know what the monsters would teach humans, maybe some special skills.
The total transaction price of the three ginsengs of the Observation Bureau was 1.8 million. After deducting taxes and commissions, the income was still considerable. This is unexpected wealth for Guanju Company, not the stable green tea business and online store operation. The status of wild ginseng and forest ginseng fluctuates every year, and it takes time to find the next wave of good wild ginseng.
After the show, Boss Peng came over and smiled and congratulated: "Very good, I think your ginseng is good, it seems that there are still many people who know the business." Boss
Peng has a big business, he considers the cost, and will not bid for ginseng with a gram price that is too high, but he is also very happy to see Chu Zhishui and others make money.
Chu Zhishui said sincerely, "Thank you for your help and concern these two days. We are new here and we are not familiar with the place."
"It's okay. You helped me before!" Boss Peng waved his hand, "Are you going back to the hotel directly? It's raining outside now. Do you want to leave later?"
Chu Zhishui glanced at Xin Yunmao and replied, "We have brought umbrellas and will go back first."
Boss Peng wanted to talk to the old customer, and the two sides said goodbye at the door of the auction.
The autumn rain was fine, and the streets of Danshan seemed to be covered with a layer of gauze, with a hazy feeling of mist and rain.
Xin Yunmao took out a dragon-bone umbrella in an empty corner. He opened the paper umbrella casually, took Chu Zhishui out, and walked in the gentle rain.
Chu Zhishui glanced at the red leaves on the street. The autumn wind blew the leaves into intoxicating colors, creating a touch of wet bright color in the rain. She suddenly remembered something and said, "Let's go to bed early tonight. Tomorrow is the weekend, and we can go to Danshan."
Danshan is a famous scenic spot in the area. Going to the mountain at this season is just right to see the gorgeous autumn leaves and the colorful forests.
Xin Yunmao responded, "Okay."
"Let me check the weather forecast to see if it will rain tomorrow. If it rains, we'll take action later." Chu Zhishui opened her phone to search. If it rains on the weekend, the travel plan will probably include taking a hot spring bath.
Xin Yunmao said firmly: "It will definitely not rain tomorrow."
"Why?" Chu Zhishui was stunned, "But now it is reported that it will rain."
"No reason." Xin Yunmao said arrogantly, "Listen to me, I am more accurate than it."
"...Okay, you are indeed more confident than the weather forecast."
They walked back to the hotel from the auction and did not notice that there were other people on the street corner.
Liu Xia was indignant after coming out of the venue and immediately asked about the reason why his partner was exposed. By chance, he met a mountain spirit who had not yet transformed into a human, and promised to help the other party collect demonic energy for cultivation, and the other party helped him accumulate wealth, so he started the business of making money from fake ginseng.
They have done similar things before, but the amount of fake ginseng was not that large, so they have never been exposed. This time, the truth is suddenly revealed, and they have to confront the auction, which will affect their subsequent development.
Liu Xia said unhappily: "Didn't you say that others can't see through it?"
A strange and hoarse voice sounded: [Just because humans can't see through it doesn't mean that other monsters can't see through it. I haven't turned into a human yet, but there are some of my kind who mingle in human society. ]
The voice of a monster that hasn't turned into a human is soft and difficult to be heard by other people or monsters, but he used means to sign an agreement with Liu Xia, so that the two sides can establish communication.
"What should we do now? Can we turn the ginseng back?" Liu Xia said, "It's troublesome for them to ask us to produce evidence. If we can't produce anything, they might sue me then."
[Wait, stop, turn left. ]
"What's wrong?" Liu Xia turned around and did as he was told, and saw a man and a woman holding an umbrella.
They were holding an ancient dark green umbrella, which looked extremely elegant in the drizzle, and were walking towards the hotel with their backs to Liu Xia.
There were dark black flame marks on the surface of the ancient umbrella, and I don't know if it was designed intentionally, as if it was a black petal that was leaping and opening.
[No need to think about those things anymore, as long as I get that umbrella, I can immediately transform into a human, and then I can have whatever I want.]
The monster who had not yet transformed into a human was deeply attracted by the dragon bone umbrella, and he had a strong premonition in his heart that this umbrella had an extraordinary power, and perhaps it could transform him.
In the hotel, Chu Zhishui and Xin Yunmao did not go out because of the rain. They had a simple meal in the hotel restaurant, sat and chatted for a while, and then went back to the house to prepare to rest and prepare for tomorrow's travel activities.
The rooms of the man and the demon were next to each other. Xin Yunmao arrived first to swipe his card. As soon as he opened the door, his face immediately darkened. He turned around and walked out, frowning and saying, "Someone has been in my room."
It was dirty here.
He couldn't stay any longer.
Chu Zhishui explained, "There will be an aunt to clean it."
Xin Yunmao didn't respond. He followed Chu Zhishui to her room for a walk. After confirming that her room was fine, he walked back with a blank expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
"What are you going to do?" Chu Zhishui was dizzy by him. "If everything is fine, I'm going to close the door."
"You close the door."
Chu Zhishui watched him go back to the room, and then closed his own door.
There was plenty of hot water in the hotel, which was just right to relieve the fatigue of the tired body after the tense auction.
In the room, Chu Zhishui finished her shower and changed into pajamas. She stood in front of the mirror and wiped her wet hair. She was about to look for the hotel's hair dryer when she heard a rhythmic knock on the door.
The air was filled with steam and white mist. The door of the bathroom was closed, making the sounds outside fade away. She tilted her ear and listened carefully for a while, confirming that someone was knocking on the door outside. Then she walked out slowly, with a dry towel draped over her shoulders to cushion her hair.
Chu Zhishui did not open the door directly. She asked through the door first: "Who is this?"
"It's me." The familiar deep male voice came from the bamboo demon next door.
Chu Zhishui opened the door and saw Xin Yunmao as expected. She asked suspiciously: "What do you want to borrow?"
Xin Yunmao did not bring any luggage and was not familiar with the hotel. Maybe he was short of supplies.
Xin Yunmao knocked on her door in the corridor, but got no response for a long time. He was worried that something had happened to her, but she was taking a shower and changing clothes, and when she opened the door, steam hit her face.
Chu Zhishui's face was now clean, with a healthy pink after being steamed by hot water. Her long hair was draped wetly, and even her eyes were stained with clear water. The bathroom behind her was filled with mist, and it was obvious that she had just taken a shower.
He was stunned when he saw her expression, and his Adam's apple moved subconsciously, blurting out: "I'll stay at your place tonight."
"???"
Chu Zhishui was amused by his ridiculous words. She tore off the dry towel on her shoulders, as if she was holding a long whip in her hand, wishing to whip him hard to wake him up. She retorted with admiration: "Friend, you knocked on the leader's door in the middle of the night and said such a sentence. Do you really want to redefine high moral character?"
Although they agreed that they were not superiors and subordinates in private, his behavior was still outrageous.
She was no longer shocked, but felt completely funny and had no idea what he was doing. If someone else said this, she would definitely call the police immediately and say that the other party was a hooligan, but the monster in front of her had a different way of thinking.
Xin Yunmao was stunned for a moment, but he reacted in an instant, his ears suddenly felt hot, and he said hurriedly: "No, I can't go back to the house now."
"Yeah, go on, I'm listening." Chu Zhishui perfunctorily, "The reason is that there is a giant panda in the house? Do you need me to call the zoo for you?"
Seeing his embarrassed face, she even gave him some advice.
Xin Yunmao was about to explain, but his eyes swept across her delicate collarbone, and he quickly turned his eyes away, staring awkwardly at the corner of the corridor, and said in a muffled voice: "I put the umbrella in the room, and someone will steal it at night."
"Umbrella?" Chu Zhishui asked suspiciously, "A dragon bone umbrella? But can't you put it away at any time?"
They used a dragon bone umbrella today, and she saw his ability to take it and put it away in a second, as if he had a space bag from another dimension.
"If you put it away, it can't be used as bait." Xin Yunmao lowered his eyes and explained, "I'm not interested in teaching them a lesson. I just left a 'cause', and the 'result' is up to them."
This is his usual code of conduct. He doesn't care whether others are good or bad, and he doesn't have the time to uphold justice. He just bounces back what's on them. He has no obligation to judge or punish anyone. It is the other party who judges and punishes themselves.
If they hadn't targeted the dragon bone umbrella, then tonight would be safe, but evil causes will not produce good results. The ending is doomed from the beginning.
Chu Zhishui thought for a while, and finally made way and let him in.
A moment later, Xin Yunmao sat on the couch in the room and watched TV. He held the remote control and casually switched channels to kill time while fishing with a dragon-bone umbrella, but he was completely unable to concentrate. His ears were always attracted by the rustling sounds of Chu Zhishui beside him.
The warm yellow light, the humid air, the diffused light fragrance, the transformation really made his five senses too sensitive. It was not as simple as when he was just a bamboo. He began to regret coming in. He should have gone out earlier. There was no need to look for her at this time.
Xin Yunmao sat on the couch next to the tea table, and Chu Zhishui sat at the head of the bed. The two were exactly diagonal, and they wished they were as far away from each other as possible.
She also felt extremely awkward, and inadvertently glanced at his broad-shouldered and tall back on the couch. She always felt that this guy's presence in the room was amazing, and she couldn't ignore it. Anyone would feel unnatural if there was a person of the opposite sex in the room in the middle of the night, but they couldn't let him go out in the rain.
Xin Yunmao changed his clothes after returning to the hotel. Maybe because he stayed indoors, he wore thin clothes, made of light linen. His sleeves were slightly rolled up, revealing his slender arms and the back of his hands. Blue veins were hidden under his jade-colored skin, showing the beauty of masculine power.
He stared at the TV intently, his fingers were clearly knuckles, and he held the remote control in his hand, occasionally pressing it twice.
Neither the man nor the demon spoke.
Undercurrents surged in the quiet room. Even the sound of the program gradually drifted away. Only the light and shadow of the TV kept changing on their faces, sometimes brighter and sometimes darker.
"What do you want to watch?" Chu Zhishui looked at the TV that was jumping and switching crazily. She was the first to break the strange silence and tactfully suggested, "Can you watch it for a while? It's really dizzy to keep switching channels."
She suspected that he had never used a remote control. He had been changing channels from the beginning, with no purpose at all, and did not stop at any program.
Xin Yunmao thought for a moment, and he pressed his fingers twice and stopped at the documentary channel, which happened to be the plant film on the plane, the one he angrily denounced as unbearable to watch.
Chu Zhishui: "?"
Chu Zhishui turned her head to look at him and said in disbelief: "Why are you watching this?"
Shocked! A well-known old antique demon in Huaijiang actually watched plant films in public!
Xin Yunmao glanced at her with his peripheral vision, his eyes flickered, and he said faintly: "Don't you like this?"
This seemed to imply that she was a pervert.
"I don't like it." Chu Zhishui's scalp tingled, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Please change the channel."
The TV programs continued to switch, skipping many boring commercials, and finally staying on the movie channel, which was one of the few content that could be watched. This is a foreign movie, and the various lenses are beautifully designed, more aesthetic than other channel programs.
Chu Zhishui and Xin Yunmao had an excuse to remain silent, and they relied on the movie to divert their attention.
However, the normal development of the movie gradually became abnormal, and men and women opened their hearts and kissed each other, which was a passionate and unrestrained way of showing love in foreign countries.
Rapid and violent panting, the sound of kisses with flushed faces and ears, and a romantic and soothing light melody came from the TV.
Xin Yunmao was so shocked that he let go of the remote control and directly covered his face with his fingers to hide his dazed expression, and avoided the sight in panic. A flame jumped out of his chest, catalyzed by the light fragrance in the room, and his whole body was on fire. In an instant, it was like a boiled shrimp, and all the exposed skin on his body turned pink.
Chu Zhishui was also stunned. She didn't expect the movie to be like this. Foreigners scared domestic bamboo. She hurriedly said, "Change the channel."
Xin Yunmao turned back and stared at her in disbelief. His obsidian eyes trembled uneasily, but they revealed a bright light. He seemed to be embarrassed, ashamed, shocked, and revealed unspeakable emotions.
"Why are you looking at me?" Chu Zhishui was irritated by his eyes and said angrily, "You chose the movie!"
It was weird.
Tonight was so weird.
He blushed when watching plant documentaries and also blushed when watching human movies. Was he a little too sensitive? Other people are at most 18+, but a thousand-year-old monster is banned in China for five thousand years?
Chu Zhishui took a deep breath, trying to get rid of the strange feeling of heat, and decided to use a hair dryer to distract herself. She tried to treat Xin Yunmao on the couch as air, turned on the hair dryer to comb her long hair, and the whirring sound of the wind blew away the moisture from the ends of her hair. As
the hot wind passed, the fragrance spread, making him even more distracted, and he was unable to cool down.
Xin Yunmao stole a glance at her, swallowed his throat, and took the initiative to ask: "Do you want me to help you?" He
felt that if she continued to blow him like this, he would be completely unable to sit still and really run away from the room.
"You help me blow?" Chu Zhishui stopped what she was doing, she glanced at him and sneered, "Don't you think it's embarrassing enough now?"
"...No, you can do it directly."
Xin Yunmao's eyelashes trembled slightly, as if he was afraid that she would be unhappy, and he added in a low voice: "...I can also help you blow."
Chu Zhishui thought about his various spells, and then realized that she had misunderstood: "..."
She forced herself to calm down: "Do it directly, thank you Teacher Tony."
Xin Yunmao snapped his fingers, and the wet hair became dry.
Chu Zhishui touched his fluffy and dry hair, feeling that these spells could generate a lot of side jobs. No wonder he didn't need luggage, he was an all-in-one home machine that could do everything.
This night was a long and tormenting one. Both the man and the demon were restrained. Even Chu Zhishui, who was always good at finding topics, couldn't speak. The key was that the atmosphere was too weird. If you weren't careful, it would become ambiguous and charming. So keeping silent was the safest thing to do.
After sitting in silence for a long time, they finally came to the conclusion.
Xin Yunmao stood up from the couch, he breathed a sigh of relief, and walked out: "I caught him."
If he can't catch her again, he will go crazy and turn into a charcoal-roasted bamboo. He feels that he was not so burned even when he was burned by the dragon flame.
"In your room?" Chu Zhishui said unexpectedly, "Then we have to call the hotel staff."
It is illegal for outsiders to break into the room without permission, and it may also affect the hotel.
"Yes, I'll go and take a look first."
Chu Zhishui sent Xin Yunmao to the door. Seeing that he was about to leave, she suddenly said, "By the way, were you embarrassed just now?"
Xin Yunmao didn't expect her to ask this. He turned his back to her and his body stiffened. He confessed, "...embarrassed."
"It's right to be embarrassed. Remember this feeling." Chu Zhishui teased leisurely, "The God has always been pure and loyal. Remember to protect yourself when you go out. Don't knock on my door late at night in the future."
Xin Yunmao: "..."
