Incense money from flower and bird shop

Chapter 30 Beauty in the Mirror 1

On Monday morning, a big news spread in the company, so that when Xiao Congshuo walked in, everyone paid attention to him.

Yu Lili dragged Xiao Congshuo and ran to the stairwell, almost dancing with excitement.Xiao Congshuo looked at her from the foot of the mountain, and asked confusedly, "Have you had a convulsion?"

"What nonsense?" Yu Lili was used to arguing with him, and she didn't care what Xiao Congshuo said, and asked mysteriously, "Do you know the president who came by air?"

Xiao Congshuo still didn't understand why Yu Lili was so excited: "I only know my surname is Xiao."

Yu Lili asked: "Xiao and Xiao...couldn't be your relatives?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? She's Caotouxiao." Xiao Congshuo looked at Yu Lili with distaste, and complained, "I have a lot of imagination."

Yu Lili said seriously: "But I heard from Brother Wang who went to the airport to pick up people yesterday, that Mr. Xiao looks a bit like you."

Xiao Congshuo thought she was joking, but she didn't look like her, but after thinking about it, there are many people who look alike, so maybe they are all relatives.

While laughing at Yu Lili's daydreams, he walked out of the stairwell and just met a group of people.

Not only Yu Lili, but even Xiao Congshuo were stunned.This is a wonderful feeling, just like looking in a mirror, it can also be said that the person in the mirror is alive.

Mr. Xiao, who was airborne, walked in the front of the crowd. He didn't pay attention to Xiao Congshuo in the corner until he got into the elevator.

"It's really similar." Yu Lili tiptoed to look a few more times, then turned to stare at Xiao Congshuo, "It's obviously very similar, but the temperament is completely different. It's not the same person at first sight."

"That's tall, rich and handsome, wake up." Xiao Congshuo disapproved, and went to check in with a smile, "You Brother Xiao, my ancestral lack of money."

"But I think brother Xiao is more handsome." Yu Lili hugged her thigh quickly, "I can also write articles and exorcise ghosts and demons. Who can compare to my brother Xiao?"

The "desire to survive" can be said to be very strong, Xiao Congshuo chatted with her after punching out the card, and hurried upstairs to start working.

In the office, everyone paid attention to Xiao Congshuo. The moment Xiao Congshuo walked in, the colleagues were silent.

Sister Liu came over with a water glass in her hand, and asked as if asking for a shocking secret: "Xiao Xiao, Xiao is always not you—"

"No." Xiao Congshuo turned around, with a wry smile on his face, "I have answered countless times this morning, it's really not."

Everyone lamented that "the same people have different fates", and at the same time dispersed, each started the work at hand.

The wonderful day passed while everyone was discussing in private. Xiao Congshuo exhaustedly sorted out the materials, and when he was about to leave work, he received instructions from Ming Yan—to go grocery shopping together tonight.

Ming Yan sat downstairs 10 minutes earlier, waiting for Xiao Congshuo to leave work.Yu Lili held the coffee and sent it over, smiling sweeter than nectar: ​​"I'm waiting for Brother Xiao again."

"How is Shen Siyi?" Ming Yan didn't dare to touch the bitter coffee, while exchanging greetings, he calmly avoided the bitter taste of the coffee.

"She is fine, she has recently changed her career and opened a yoga studio, and she is much happier than before." Speaking of Shen Siyi, Yu Lili was very grateful to Ming Yan.

Ming Yan nodded, and was also happy for her: "She doesn't have modeling in her career, so it's a good thing that she can change direction in time."

After talking about Shen Siyi, Yu Lili suddenly remembered about Xiao Congshuo, and asked Ming Yan mysteriously: "Did you know that our company recently hired a——"

Before she finished speaking, Yu Lili's eyes suddenly widened, she quietly pushed Ming Yan, and said in a low voice, "Look quickly."

Ming Yan looked over and saw that the man coming out of the elevator was a man who was almost exactly the same as Xiao Congshuo, but his eyebrows and eyes were too sharp, as awe-inspiring as a blade.

Exactly the same, but very different.

Ming Yan felt a "thump" in his heart, and suddenly thought of something, a smile froze on his face.He got up and walked to the elevator, and pressed the up button, just wanting to quickly confirm Xiao Congshuo's safety.

Soon, the elevator was in place, Ming Yan walked in and pressed the 22nd floor.The moment the elevator doors closed, Ming Yan saw someone pushing the toe of a shoe against the metal door.

The automatically closed door popped open again, and a face very similar to Xiao Congshuo came into view.That person smiled at Ming Yan and walked into the elevator car.

There was no strange aura on his body, not because everything was normal, but because Ming Yan couldn't feel it.This feeling is like not being able to touch the flowers growing under the glass cover, but he is clearly standing in front of him.

"Are you an employee of the company?" From the moment he walked into the elevator, the man's eyes never moved away from Ming Yan.

"No." Ming Yan deliberately pretended to be confused, and said casually, "I'm here to deliver food."

The man suddenly laughed out loud, and asked half jokingly and half seriously: "Now the takeaway boys are also selected according to their appearance?"

Ming Yan smiled and said nothing, he didn't want to talk any more with this man who appeared inexplicably.Soon, the elevator reached the 22nd floor, and when Ming Yan walked out, he was suddenly stopped.

"My name is Xiao Shao." His sharp eyes lingered on Ming Yan, and his tone was meaningful, "There will be a period later."

It was just four short words, but it made Ming Yan's hair stand on end.

He quickly turned and left, walking towards Xiao Congshuo's office.Xiao Congshuo also happened to come out, and almost bumped into his arms: "Ming Yan?"

With a heavy face, Ming Yan dragged Xiao Congsuo to the tea room: "Just now I met a man who is exactly like you."

"You also met?" Xiao Congshuo obviously didn't take this matter to heart, but seeing Ming Yan's complexion, he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

Ming Yan thought for a while, but still didn't say what he speculated: "In the future...you should avoid it, I almost misidentified the person just now, it's quite embarrassing."

Things without evidence are nothing but conjectures, even if they are said, it will only increase Xiao Congshuo's troubles.

Xiao Congshuo responded with a smile: "He is a domineering president, and I am just a low-level white-collar worker. I can't win the same company."

"Let's go, go back and cook." The phrase "there will be a period later" still lingers in his ears, Ming Yan walked out of the building worriedly, and went to the supermarket together.

"I'll cook tonight." Xiao Congshuo took chicken legs and cabbage, talking and laughing in line to weigh them.

Ming Yan pushed the trolley and stood aside, smiling back, but when Xiao Congshuo turned around, he showed a worried expression.

If all the coincidences come together, it will no longer be a coincidence, Ming Yan thought to himself, he must find an opportunity to persuade Xiao Congshuo to stay away from this company.

After dinner, Dabai drove Zhuli to watch the moon in the yard, which can be said to understand the "reason" very well.

Xiao Congshuo was lying on the bed and swiping his phone. He didn't know what he saw and smiled from ear to ear.Ming Yan leaned over curiously, he held his face and pecked at him, and was stunned by the kiss.

Zhu Li, who quietly flew to the window sill, looked at them with his head tilted, watching them curiously, but he was so engrossed in watching them that he bumped his head against the glass window.

Xiao Congshuo originally wanted to "explore" further, but when he heard the sound of the glass window, he looked back in shock.Ming Yan saw Zhu Li at a glance, kicked Xiao Congshuo away, and pulled the curtains.

Xiao Congshuo turned over and fell heavily on the floor, clutching his back in pain.

Ming Yan's complexion was normal, but his ears and heels were already red and bleeding.Zhu Li is still a young phoenix, only six or seven years old, but he has committed a crime.

After locking the windows and closing the curtains, Ming Yan came to care about Xiao Congshuo: "Did you fall somewhere?"

Xiao Congshuo clutched his back and cried out in pain, Ming Yan stretched out his hand guiltily to grab him: "Let me see——huh?"

A few seconds ago, Xiao Congshuo, who was still screaming in pain, acted like a tiger pounced on his food, throwing Ming Yan onto the bed, smiling brighter than the sun: "Help me take a good look, huh?"

Ming Yan belatedly realized that this was a trick, and raised his hand to poke his forehead: "Death?"

Xiao Congshuo grabbed his wrists, confining him between his chest and the bed.Ming Yan suddenly raised his chin, and took the initiative to kiss Xiao Congshuo's lips.

Outside the window, Zhu Li could no longer hear the movement, and stood beside Dabai dejectedly, constantly muttering: "Do all human beings fight with their mouths?"

Dabaiwo dozed off in the yard, and lazily responded: "That was a quarrel."

"It's not a quarrel, it's mouth to mouth." Zhu Li replied solemnly, "Do you really think I'm stupid?"

"I think you are stupid!" Dabai was so frightened by its words that he lost sleepiness, and really wanted to slap the stupid bird, "Be careful that Mingyan stewed you."

Zhu Li flew back to the bird stand with an innocent face, and fell asleep full of doubts.Dabai closed his eyes again, shook his head and sighed, how could a well-behaved beast be raised to be a fool?

The next morning, Xiao Congshuo walked out of the store with a refreshed mind.Ming Yan stood on the stairs, beckoning to Zhu Li: "Come here."

Zhu Li suddenly felt that there was a cool wind blowing by his side.Dabai turned his head aside, and silently lit a candle for it in his heart.

When Xiao Congshuo walked into the office, he suddenly saw Secretary Yang approaching with a folder between his arms, and said to him, "Boss Xiao called you."

"Me?" Xiao Congshuo pointed to himself, full of doubts, "Are you sure?"

Not only Xiao Congshuo was full of doubts, but also Secretary Yang spread his hands, expressing that he didn't know the reason.

Xiao Congshuo followed Secretary Yang to the 26th floor, pushed open the heavy wooden door, and walked into the quiet office.

When looking at Xiao Shao's face, Xiao Congshuo always had some inexplicable feeling in his heart, as if the person in the mirror came to life, and also cast his eyes on him.

Xiao Shao's eyes were calm and deep, but contained a sharp edge: "Xiao Congshuo?"

Xiao Congshuo nodded, and replied, "Yes."

Xiao Shao didn't even turn around, and asked him bluntly: "I heard that you can solve supernatural events?"

Apart from Yu Lili, the only one in the company who knew about this matter was Zhou Qi who resigned and left.Xiao Congshuo didn't know who Xiao Shao heard the news from, and for a while, he didn't dare to answer easily: "Who did Mr. Xiao listen to?"

"Zhou Yu is my friend." Xiao Shao pursed his lips, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his smile.

"It turned out to be Mr. Zhou." Xiao Congshuo didn't think about it any more, admitted it frankly, and then asked, "Does Xiao always need help with something?"

"Yes." Xiao Shao seemed to trust the person in front of him for no reason, unlike the hesitation and temptation of other clients, he directly asked for employment.

"I like to collect. There are many old objects in the house, and there is always some unrest."

"Two days ago, I took a bronze mirror from a friend, and strange things started to happen." Xiao Shao said, "So I hope you can come and show me."

Xiao Congshuo said truthfully: "The one who can handle this is my friend. In fact, I am his deputy."

"It's okay, bring your friends tonight." Xiao Shao didn't care about these things, and just said: "As long as the matter can be resolved, the reward is not a problem."

When Ming Yan received the call, his face immediately darkened, panic and surprise lingered in his heart, making him uneasy.

Sure enough, Xiao Shao started to get close to Xiao Congshuo. Although he didn't know what his intention was, it must not be a good thing.Ming Yan closed the shop early and rushed to Xiao Congshuo's place of work.Since he couldn't avoid it, he wouldn't be afraid of a head-on confrontation.

Downstairs in the office, Xiao Congshuo stood on the side of the road and waved to him.At the same time, Ming Yan saw that Xiao Shao came out of the car and was looking at him without blinking.

Ming Yan looked at Xiao Shao defensively, and asked coldly, "What's going on?"

In Xiao Shao's seemingly joking words, there was a hint of sarcasm: "I remember when we met last time, you didn't say that you would exorcise ghosts and demons."

Xiao Congshuo asked in surprise, "Have you seen it?"

Ming Yan frowned, his expression getting worse and worse: "I just happened to meet in the elevator."

"Let's go, solve the problem for me." Xiao Shao asked them to get in the car and go to the villa together.

Ming Yan didn't move, but just stood there.Xiao Congshuo saw that he was not in the right state, leaned over and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

"You can't take this task." Ming Yan knew that for the present plan, he could only persuade Xiao Congshuo to leave first, so as not to put him in danger, "I can help him solve it."

What's different this time from the usual, why did Ming Yan leave him and act alone?

Xiao Congshuo really didn't understand: "Why?"

"because--"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Shao walked over and opened the car door for them: "Let's go."

"Xiao Congshuo has something to do today, so I'm afraid I can't go." Ming Yan looked at him with a smile on his face, and before Xiao Congshuo could interrupt, he said quickly, "Only I will go and see it alone."

Xiao Shao acted extremely reasonable: "It's okay, this kind of thing can't be forced."

"I'll explain to you when I get back." These were the last words Ming Yan said before leaving.

Xiao Congshuo returned to the flower and bird shop full of suspicion. Although he was puzzled, he never doubted Ming Yan's intentions.Because for Xiao Congshuo, Ming Yan is a lover who lives and dies through adversity.

However, from the moment Ming Yan saw Xiao Shao, he was extremely vigilant.Xiao Congshuo thought over and over again, and could only think of one thing, that is, Ming Yan had something to hide from him.Perhaps there was some unavoidable reason why he refused to tell the truth.

Let's wait for him to come back and ask again.Xiao Congshuo sighed, sitting at the door of the shop, looking at the crescent moon hanging high in the night sky, waiting for Ming Yan to return.

At this moment, Ming Yan has already walked into Xiao Shao's villa and is sitting on the sofa in the living room.He looked at Xiao Shao coldly, and almost warned, "Don't get close to Xiao Congshuo."

Xiao Shao seemed to have heard something extremely ridiculous, and asked him back: "I am his boss, and now I am his employer. I have normal work contact, how can I say that I approached on purpose?"

"You can't be more clear in your heart." Ming Yan didn't bother to play charades with him, and asked bluntly, "Are you someone who was sealed in Xiao Congshuo's past life?"

"Yes." Since he had already provoked them, Xiao Shao didn't want to hide his identity at all.

Ming Yan asked: "Who are you?"

This time, Xiao Shao smiled without saying a word, not in a hurry to answer his question.

"One question is exchanged for another question, it's time for me to ask." Xiao Shao's eyes lingered on Ming Yan, with a different meaning, "Why do you care so much about Xiao Congshuo?"

Ming Yan replied crisply: "It has nothing to do with you."

Faced with Ming Yan's indifferent words, Xiao Shao was not angry, and took out a wooden box from the drawer.The quaint bronze mirror is quietly lying in the box, and the back is stained with patina, which is the trace of the quiet passage of time.

Xiao Shao said: "This is the bronze mirror I bought at a high price."

Ming Yan took a quick glance, and sure enough, he saw something abnormal, but kept his expression on, and asked him again: "With your ability, you still can't take care of such a mirror?"

Xiao Shao seemed to have expected him to ask such a question, without any embarrassment: "Because I want to see your skills."

"Sorry, I refuse to deal with this matter." After speaking, Ming Yan got up and left.The purpose of his coming today was to warn this person not to get close to Xiao Congshuo.

"If I say, you are willing to solve this matter, I will never approach Xiao Congshuo again?"

Ming Yan stopped in his footsteps, turned around suddenly, and looked at him thoughtfully.

Xiao Shao laughed out loud, brewed a good cup of tea for Ming Yan, and invited him to sit down again: "Then you really care about him."

Then, Xiao Shao smiled quite "sincerely": "I just want to see your abilities, and I have no other intentions."

Ming Yan couldn't figure out his intention, but decided to take a gamble, and just said: "Remember what you said today."

Xiao Shao took a sip of tea slowly, and said with a smile, "I've always kept my word."
