Chapter 032: Eating Watermelon in the Rest Area (5)
Pavilion Master Ji pondered the question and observed Jiang Minxu, as if studying an extremely fine piece of craftsmanship. He asked with some confusion, "Is President Jiang jealous?"
Jiang Minxu: "..."
This is why he and Ji Zehan can't get along.
Although this person can distinguish between good and evil and act decisively, he seems to know nothing about the ways of the world and human emotions.
Except for the time when he faced Liu Tang just now, he seemed a little human.
But perhaps it was also something like simple gratitude to the savior.
As for liking someone, maybe it's too complicated for him.
But to be honest, Jiang Minxu doesn't hate this person.
Many times, I even think this person is cute.
Jiang Minxu shook his head helplessly and said to Ji Zehan, "I just think that Pavilion Master Ji may not understand what 'like' means."
Pavilion Master Ji tilted his head, a hint of innocence showing on his usually stern face: "I want to be with you forever, and I'm unhappy when I see others getting close to you. Isn't that love?"
Mo Qianhe, who was eavesdropping on the side, felt like he was hit by an arrow in the knee and thought to himself, is this what love is?
Then what did he do to Liu Tang...
[Wow, this melon is getting sweeter and sweeter!]
Liu Tang's inner voice interrupted Mo Qianhe's thoughts.
This person seemed to be eating melon with peace of mind.
Jiang Minxu was stunned when he heard what Pavilion Master Ji said. He didn't know how to define the emotion of "liking" and only replied, "This can be considered a form of liking. However, true liking is not just superficial possession."
Ah, it’s not true.
Mo Qianhe breathed a sigh of relief, but seemed a little unwilling.
Jiang Minxu asked back, "So, Pavilion Master Ji, what do you think your feelings are for Liu Tang? Is it also 'like'?"
Pavilion Master Ji analyzed it carefully for a moment, as if he were studying some cutting-edge scientific problem, and replied, "Yes, I like it."
Jiang Minxu smiled bitterly.
See, I'm nothing special to this person.
Liu Tang shouted in his heart:
[Speak nicely! Don't hurt me!]
Mo Qianke became fully alert.
This guy surnamed Ji really has bad intentions.
The few of them listened to Ji Zehan continue: "It's just different from my love for you. I am very grateful to my benefactor and want to repay his kindness, but I don't want to be with him."
Jiang Minxu sneered: "You don't want to be with him, but you still want to be 'companion-bound' with him?"
Ji Zehan was puzzled: "'Companion Binding' is more like a guarantee and restriction mechanism. After binding, I am more like his guardian, which is different from being together."
Jiang Minxu raised his eyebrows: "You are very analytical at this time."
Liu Tang and Mo Qianhe looked at each other in surprise.
[Guardian... I treat Mo Qianhe as a friend, but he actually wants to be my father.]
Mo Qiangan: "..."
You're really good at reading comprehension. What does that have to do with me?
However, boys often joke with each other and make a bet on whether to call each other "Dad", and they don't think there is anything strange about it.
However, Mo Qianhe discovered that his relationship with Liu Tang became particularly rational and simple after Ji Zehan's explanation.
This made him a little unhappy.
Deep down, he seemed to be expecting some more romantic interpretation.
Perhaps driven by a desire to win, Jiang Minxu continued to question Ji Zehan, "Then why are you unhappy when you see Liu Tang and Mo Qianhe together?"
Ji Zehan replied immediately: "Mo Qianhe has a very bad reputation. I'm worried that he will harm the benefactor. If you were bound to the benefactor, I wouldn't be worried."
Mo Qianhe cried out in his heart: You have a bad reputation, your whole family has a bad reputation!
Jiang Minxu was convinced by this answer: "Okay..."
Before he could figure out what to say next, he heard the other party ask, "You haven't answered me yet, do you like men or women?"
Jiang Minxu's heart tightened.
When he was in school, he was sure that he liked girls.
He also tossed and turned because of that girl.
But then he discovered the other person's dark side.
He was frightened by her calculating nature of forcing others to death step by step.
But he was always attracted to people who were good at planning.
Such people often view others as pawns who can be used and discarded by anyone.
Once you fall in love, you will just become a plaything in the hands of the other person.
Therefore, Jiang Minxu became more and more afraid of falling in love with others.
Regardless of whether the other person is a man or a woman.
Until this person appeared in front of me.
He is undoubtedly good at planning, but he also has an unconscious kindness.
It's like some kind of robot that has been programmed to do something.
He has no ability to empathize with the suffering of others, but he always obeys the instructions given to him by someone: punish evil and promote good.
The person who gave the order might be his benefactor Liu Tang, or the founder of Wantong Pavilion.
Ji Zehan took the other party's teachings as his guiding principle and implemented them meticulously.
Jiang Minxu was jealous of such an existence that Ji Zehan regarded as a belief.
It was this kind of person who shaped the Ji Zehan that he admired.
No matter what, he could not surpass the position this person held in Ji Zehan's heart.
But why would he care about this?
Maybe it's just a boring comparison.
He pulled himself back to his thoughts, looked at Ji Zehan, and said insincerely: "I won't like anyone, regardless of gender."
[Something's wrong! There's a knife in this candy! Back off! Back off! Back off!]
Liu Tang pulled off the ring on his ring finger and appeared in the room.
Chairman Jiang and Pavilion Master Ji were both startled by this sudden change of scenery and both took precautions: "Who is it?"
After seeing clearly that the person in front of him was Liu Tang, he was just about to relax when he was frightened for the second time by Mo Qianhe who suddenly appeared in the room.
Jiang Minxu tried to control his frantic heartbeat. He felt like he was about to have a heart attack.
This sounds outrageous in the "18th level of hell". After all, no one gets sick here, so there is not even a hospital.
Pavilion Master Ji was still calm and asked, "Props can't be used in the 'Underworld Rest Area'. How did you manage to appear so suddenly?"
Liu Tang explained: "No, we have been here for a while."
Mo Qianhe, who was originally planning to pretend to have just appeared here, said: "..."
Jiang Minxu: “!!!”
If he talks about his personal affairs, Liu Tang will definitely catch him, right?!
What an outrageous passive.
He's been cheated on by Liu Tang three times, right?!
As he thought about it, Jiang Minxu even started to complain about himself:
Why do I have so many melons?!
I've been upright all my life, so where did I get so many melons for others to eat?!
I’m really impressed.
"As the Pavilion Master, you don't have this ability? I discovered this function in my special room." Mo Qianhe explained the general situation.
Pavilion Master Ji nodded in understanding, "I see. The founder is truly unfathomable."
Seeing this man so calm, Jiang Minxu felt helpless but also felt it was natural.
Ji Zehan is like this, he has no basic concepts of emotions.
For example, the anger at having one's privacy invaded.
Although Jiang Minxu was angry, he was more embarrassed than angry. Even when he questioned the two people who suddenly appeared, his momentum was a little weaker. "Why don't you explain why you eavesdropped? I believe in Mr. Liu's character. It shouldn't be intentional, right?"
Liu Tang was a little embarrassed, but still honestly said, "I'm sorry, I did it on purpose."
Jiang Minxu: "..."
The other party was too straightforward and I couldn't deal with him for the time being.
Mo Qianhe on the side covered his face, then thought for a moment and said, "How about I give each of you a prop as compensation?"
Jiang Minxu pretended to be polite: "That's not necessary..."
Pavilion Master Ji flatly refused: "I don't agree."
Jiang Minxu: "..."
Then he heard the man say, "I request that Benefactor go through the dungeon with me next time. The binding card will be issued by Mo the Swindler."
The veins on Mo Qianhe's forehead twitched.
Wow, not only did he want me to produce an item, he also wanted to take up my opportunity to use the item, and he also wanted me and Liu Tang to accompany him to the dungeon together.
Ji Zehan, you are an old fox who eats people without leaving any bones.
Liu Tang looked at Mo Qianhe with some embarrassment. He couldn't always let the other party take the blame whenever he got into trouble.
He turned to look at Pavilion Master Ji and said, "Pavilion Master Ji, we were wrong in this matter, and I am also responsible. Can you ask for something that I can share the responsibility for?"
Pavilion Master Ji: "Don't mind, benefactor. I can tell you any of my secrets. You don't need to compensate me. And it is a great honor for me that you agree to be with me."
Liu Tang: "Ah...thank you..."
Jiang Minxu felt a sour feeling in his heart.
He looked at Liu Tang and said, "I don't need any props either. Since what you heard was our secret, then you should share one secret with me. Oh no, to compensate for my mental loss, two secrets."
Liu Tang was in an even more difficult situation. It was not that he was unwilling to share, but he really could not remember much of the past and had no secrets about himself in his mind.
Ji Zehan looked at Jiang Minxu, somewhat puzzled. He looked at Mo Qianhe firmly: "My request remains unchanged."
Mo Qianhe thought for a moment and began to bargain: "We can play the game together. I can also give you a binding card, but it will consume the number of times you can use your item."
Ji Zehan's eyes flickered slightly, and after completing the cost calculation, he nodded and said, "Deal."
Mo Qianhe looked at Jiang Minxu: "As for the secret, President Jiang, do you want to tell us here, or wait until we are alone?"
Jiang Minxu wanted Ji Zehan to listen, so he said, "Let's talk about it here."
Mo Qianhe looked at Liu Tang: "Can I tell you something about you?"
Liu Tang nodded readily: "No problem, I also want to know."
Mo Qianhe thought for a moment and said to Liu Tang, "Actually, there's something I've wanted to tell you for a while, but I never found the chance."
Jiang Minxu's eyes gradually widened.
This sentence sounds a bit like a confession.
Mo Qianhe continued: "Since I met you in Wanjing Garden..."
Confess, confess, confess! Jiang Minxu became even more nervous.
Liu Tang also gradually realized the direction of this sentence.
[What's going on? Could this handsome guy be interested in me?!]
Liu Tang’s inner voice caused Mo Qianke to freeze for a second.
But he still gritted his teeth and continued: "I can hear your heart."
Jiang Minxu: "Huh?"
Liu Tang: “Huh?!”
[You've already taken off your pants, and you're telling me this?!]
Pavilion Master Ji, who originally looked bored, froze in thought: "!"
In order to prove that he could hear the other person's thoughts, Mo Qianhe said helplessly: "Your pants are well worn. Your mind is not outside the law. Don't drive recklessly..."
Liu Tang jumped back and said, "You've seriously violated my privacy! I demand compensation of a large sum of money for the dead so I can buy some snacks!"
Jiang Minxu: "..."
Am I the only normal person in this room?
Ji Zehan looked at Mo Qianhe seriously and said, "Is this your special ability? It's really an enviable ability."
Mo Qianhe shook his head: "No, it seems that I can only hear his inner voice."
Ji Zehan: "Having an additional skill in addition to your innate skill is even more enviable. I also want to know what President Jiang thinks every day."
Jiang Minxu was a little confused. He originally wanted Mo Qianhe to say something to stimulate Ji Zehan, but why did he end up being provoked by Ji Zehan?
Liu Tang looked at Ji Zehan's serious expression, then at Jiang Minxu's somewhat embarrassed and confused expression, and sighed inwardly:
[Ah, they're so sweet! I'm going to start shipping them!]
Mo Qianhe pulled Liu Tang over and said, "Don't be so busy eating sugar. Don't you have any further thoughts about the fact that I can hear your inner voice?"
Liu Tang reflected seriously for a moment and said, "It's okay. Anyway, there's nothing I'm thinking that you can't know. If you can hear it, I don't have to say it out loud."
Mo Qianhe smiled wistfully: "Don't blame me for not telling you at the beginning?"
Liu Tang shook his head: "It doesn't make much difference whether you tell me earlier or later. You didn't use this incident to hurt me..."
"Wait a minute!" Liu Tang suddenly realized, "So you know I know you spent over 4,000 points to bind to me?!"
Mo Qianhe: "Ah, yes..."
Liu Tang slapped his forehead and said, "No wonder you didn't tell me anything! So good of you! Are you even secretly laughing at me?"
Mo Qianhe curled his lips: "Yes."
"Ahhhhhhhh! Damn it! I'm telling you, you can't get this without fifty packs of shredded beef!"
Jiang Minxu, who was standing opposite, looked at Mo Qianhe in shock: "More than 4,000 points?! I thought you used more than 2,000 points, which was a lot, but I didn't expect it to be more than 4,000."
Mo Qianhe smiled at Jiang Minxu: "It doesn't matter even if you use up all my points."
Then he looked at Ji Zehan on the side and said provocatively: "I wonder if Pavilion Master Ji can do it."
I had expected to see a frustrated look on his face, but he remained unmoved. After weighing the pros and cons, he replied, "I really can't do that. Spending all my points wouldn't be good for running Wantong Pavilion."
Mo Qiangan: "..."
No, why don't you just admit defeat so calmly?!
Show the same momentum you used to confront me before!
