MTL - Boneless Incense-Chapter 56
Chapter 56
Chapter 54
Yu Shuixin smiled while continuing to eat: "You student is really interesting."
Shen Mo didn't talk, but picked some lean meat and put it in her bowl. Yu Shuixin is a carnivore out and out, and she picked out all the onion leaves and peppers.
"Still so picky."
Yu Shui's heart felt warm, and he really wanted to hold Shen Mo's hand, but his fingertips only moved slightly.
"I'm sorry, I hid abroad after that incident happened back then. It must be very hard to leave you alone to raise and take care of Kou Dan."
Yu Shuixin had a hint of sadness and guilt on his face. She looked at Shen Mo intently, as if she could know how he was doing these years.
Compared with before, he has indeed changed a lot, he has become more mature, his eyes have turned deep, and he is no longer so cold and aggressive, and his outline and the corners of his mouth have soft curves at some point. Can time really change everything, even if he is as stubborn as Shen Mo? Can time really dilute everything, even if the person you love the most dies in front of you, but there is nothing you can do about it?
"It's okay." Shen Mo lowered his eyes and ate seriously.
"How is Kodan?"
"As usual, I work very hard, so I don't need to worry about it. But at a young age, my life is more monotonous than mine. I have no other hobbies except catching ghosts and drinking, and my appearance changes every day."
"It's a pity that she was only a child at that time." Yu Shuixin looked around, and the smell of sad incense was everywhere, "How about you, how are you?"
Shen Mo just said: "You and your family are well abroad, what are you doing when you come back?"
Mentioning this, Yu Shui's face sank: "What are you doing back? If someone hadn't told me that you were investigating Messing's affairs everywhere, and the news that he came back again, are you planning to never tell me?"
"The past is gone, what do you want to do so much?"
"Thinking so much? Then let me ask you, what do you burn this sad incense every day and keep thinking about it?"
Shen Mo shook his head, clenched his hands slightly, his voice was low and depressed: "It's not that I don't forget, but I can't forget."
Yu Shuixin suddenly stood up and slapped the table: "Shen Mo! The revenge is not yours alone!"
Shen Mo was expressionless, and put the braised pork in her bowl again.
Yu Shuixin suddenly fell back on the chair as if she had been drained of strength, and stretched out her hand to support her forehead.
"Shen Mo, these years, I still often dream of Shen Liang. He is covered in blood, and then he hugged me with a fire all over his body, which made my bones ache. I really hate the person who killed Mei Xin with his own hands. Me, now that he has made a comeback, nothing can stop me from taking revenge!"
Shen Mo was about to speak, but saw the door suddenly opened, thinking that it was Jiang Xiaosi who had left and returned, but unexpectedly, it was a strange woman standing there.
"Sister Shuixin..." Shen Kodan looked at Yu Shuixin excitedly and joyfully.
Yu Shuixin turned her head to look at Shen Mo in surprise, and Shen Mo nodded.
"Coudan?"
Before she recovered, Shen Kodan hugged her happily.
The three chatted about the current situation while eating, and never mentioned anything about Messing. The atmosphere was not bad.
"How do you know I'm back? I told your uncle not to tell you, but he will come and surprise you when the time comes." Yu Shuixin looked at Shen Koudan, who was no longer a child in front of him, and was filled with emotion.
"Jiang Xiaosi called me and told me."
Shen Mo paused with his chopsticks and did not speak. Yu Shuixin glanced at him and said with a smile: "It's that Shen Mo student who just came to eat, right?"
Shen Koudan nodded, looked at the extra bowl on the table: "Xiao Si just left?"
"Yeah, when I said that I had engaged Shen Mo in the past, I walked away dejectedly. What a kid, everything is written on my face, and I didn't finish my next sentence."
Shen Koudan could imagine Jiang Xiaosi's appearance at that time, so he couldn't help lowering his head and laughing. Xiao Si is just too simple, he often blows his hair when teased, and fights with her aggressively. Shen Koudan often teases her about Shen Mo, she is not shy, and she wants to be her third aunt without shame.
Looking at Shen Mo's attitude again, it's a bit strange. Shen Koudan tried several times, but Shen Mo was fooled by it like Tai Chi. Shen Koudan actually felt that Shen Mo still liked Xiao Si a little bit, because she grew up so old, she had never seen him be so kind and caring to an outsider.
But Jiang Xiaosi is a zombie after all, if he doesn't grow up, he will be ruined. Jiang Liu said that she was still alive and popular, so she was half human and half dead. In the past two years, the two of them searched all the classics, prepared various prescriptions, and visited ancient tombs to search for treasures. Is there any way to bring Jiang Xiaosi back to normal.
Of course Jiang Liu didn't tell Jiang Xiaosi about these things. Jiang Xiaosi only knew that Jiang Liu didn't like her being with Shen Mo, so he tried to seldom mention it at home. But he didn't know that her father had been worrying and working hard for her secretly.
The more we get along, the more Shen Koudan feels that Jiang Liu is a nice person. She has tried her best to resist the hidden feelings in her heart. Later, I let nature take its course, but I still dare not go further. The lifespan of ordinary people is limited. With him as a friend to accompany him through a short life, when he leaves, he will not be unwilling or complain. Not to mention what happened to her, Jiang Liu had already watched his beloved die once.
After dinner, Shen Kodan helped wash the dishes in the kitchen, and Shen Mo walked in at some time.
"Are you dating Jiang Liu?"
Shen Kodan was so frightened that he almost dropped the plate in his hand. She still remembered that when she was studying, she and Kou Qing were always followed by a male classmate on the way home. Shen Mo knew how to release some ghosts to haunt him every night, scaring the child into a serious illness. If you run into a gangster or something, you will definitely be broken by him, and it will be even worse if you are a monster.
Shen Mo has always been indifferent to people, but Shen Koudan knows how protective he is. He is not sociable, has few friends, and his family is the most important thing to him.
Knowing that Shen Mo doesn't like Jiang Liu, Shen Koudan hastily shook his head in denial.
Shen Mo nodded slightly, as if thinking about something, and finally said: "Don't explain to Jiang Xiaosi about the matter between me and Shui Xin."
"Huh?" Shen Koudan didn't react.
Shen Mo didn't repeat, turned around and went to water the flowers in the yard.
Shen Koudan frowned and thought for a long time before he understood what Shen Mo meant, and he was quite surprised.
Uncle wants Xiao Si to misunderstand that there is something between him and Sister Shui Xin? Shen Koudan laughed.
This is actually good news. Perhaps Shen Mo himself didn't realize how deliberately he did this. He didn't even have the courage to directly reject Jiang Xiaosi? In this way?
Uncle really likes Jiang Xiaosi? She used to think it was impossible, but now that she summed up the abnormal behavior that uncle would show in the past few years whenever he faced Jiang Xiaosi, the more she thought about it, the more she began to feel hopeful. It turns out that Uncle San is a pedophile!
Yu Shuixin stood by the kitchen door and looked at Shen Kodan who was covering her mouth and giggling, and then turned to look at Shen Mo in the yard, and found that she had already been too far away from their lives.
"Jiang Xiaosi?" She raised the corner of her mouth slightly.
Jiang Xiaosi finished the afternoon class listlessly, and she bit down a few of the ballpoint pens. Calling Shen Koudan still couldn't get through. Unexpectedly, when he returned to the store, Shen Koudan was playing Doudizhu with Yu Chen and Di Fan.
This scene is really weird, a Taoist priest, a zombie, and a vampire are playing poker...
Jiang Xiaosi groaned, put aside his unhappiness about the appearance of his rival, and excitedly joined the battle.
After playing cards, Jiang Liu was busy today and hadn't come back yet, so Yu Chen went to cook. Di Fan ran to Tuoguxiang twice in three days, and became the No. 2 adult products salesperson. After spending more time with Yuchen, the relationship seems to be getting better and better, so now they are going to the kitchen to help.
Shen Koudan smiled: "The two of them are right."
"Yu Chen has been waiting for Dad for too long, and a relationship has never been responded to. Zombies will also get tired and die."
"As long as you can think about it."
"For a while, she misunderstood that you and Dad were in a relationship. She managed to get into the hospital where Dad worked as a nurse, and found out that you were working there as a cleaner. She thought you liked Dad too, so she came back and cried a lot. , Said that she is a zombie, how did she **** the Taoist priest, and said that you bullied people."
Shen Kodan laughed and coughed: "I'm going to catch ghosts, okay?"
"Then do you like my dad or not?"
"Like it."
Jiang Xiaosi smiled narrowly: "Do you want me to hold the red line for you?"
"The premise is to tell you what happened to my uncle and Sister Shui Xin, right?"
Jiang Xiaosi put a smile on his waist: "That's right! I've been depressed all afternoon."
"Actually, Xiao Si, if you look at Di Fan, you will know that liking can be changed. Only by giving your heart to the person who loves you and is worthy of your efforts can you be happy. You and my uncle have too many gaps that cannot be crossed. We Although I support you, there is always a faint sense of foreboding."
"I like that the mentor will not change."
"It's not just about liking. Sister Shuixin also liked third uncle before, but later she fell in love with my second uncle. The one who cried, made trouble and hanged herself broke off the engagement. She should also understand who is the person who can really give her happiness .”
Jiang Xiaosi was stunned: "Didn't the instructor get hurt at that time?"
Shen Koudan shook his head: "I don't know, uncle didn't say anything." Perhaps he had completely forgotten about having a baby kiss, Shen Koudan sighed.
Jiang Xiaosi felt distressed: "The mentor is so pitiful."
Shen Kodan rolled his eyes in his heart, poor ghost, he might be secretly happy.
"Then sister Shui Xin came back this time, is it because of the revival of her mentor?"
"It's quite possible." Shen Koudan nodded vigorously, uncle, I brought what you wanted me to convey, and successfully misunderstood Xiao Si. But think that this small obstacle can make her quit? Wrong, big mistake! She will only get more and more frustrated, Uncle, just wait to cry!
Shen Koudan found himself getting darker and darker.
Sure enough, Jiang Xiaosi quickly shifted the focus of his work from his studies back to Shen Mo. Lying on the bed, Shen Mo couldn't laugh or cry when he saw a lot of selfie MMS messages from Jiang Xiaosi posing for the camera. I pressed the delete button for a long time but didn't press it after all, so I just shut down and went to sleep
Sunday morning, a rare leisure, Jiang Xiaosi and Jiang Liu played checkers in the store. Suddenly someone pushed the door and entered, bringing a familiar aroma with the wind. As soon as Jiang Xiaosi smelled the fragrance, he had a bad feeling, and raised his head abruptly, only to see that it was Lin Qiang and Xiao Tang who came.
"Team Lin, Xiao Tang, it's rare that you have time to come here? Is it business or private? Have you had breakfast?" Jiang Xiaosi winked at the adult products in the window when talking about private matters, and Xiao Tang's face flushed immediately. He is thin-skinned, even if he occasionally drives to ask Jiang Xiaosi to go out to play or eat, he is only at the door, and he is embarrassed to come in.
Lin Qiang greeted Jiang Liu with a slight nod, glanced at the goods in the store and said, "There is a case that requires your assistance in the investigation."
"Cases? Isn't the mentor always helping to investigate?" Jiang Xiaosi was too busy in the past two years, and the time spent investigating cases with them was greatly reduced.
"No, it's a woman named Su Bi. She seems to have taken some kind of medicine. The body exudes a strange smell. The death is strange. Professor Shen's autopsy said it was a boneless fragrance, so I invite you to go back and assist in the investigation."
"She died again?" Jiang Xiaosi was stunned, "Didn't someone send money to her a few days ago, saying that she has gone home?"
Little Tang scratched his head in confusion, what do you mean dead again?
