On the rewards for successfully defeating a boss
Chapter 22 Living in the Chi Family's Old House
"This suit suits you very well. It matches you very well." Chi Mu reached out and straightened his crooked tie. Chen Qian noticed that the color of Chi Mu's suit was the same as his own.
Thinking that Chi Mu was responsible for picking almost every item on his body, his face flushed.
"Really? I like it too! And I have to thank you, Brother Chimu, for taking the time to help me choose it this morning. My brother said I looked very presentable today."
I couldn't help but observe Chi Mu's other accessories. Hmm, the tie style is also similar, the tie clip is similar, and the lapel chain... He doesn't have this, but he has a brooch, a silver flower pattern, which Chen Qian also likes... Cufflinks? The cufflinks are actually the same, oh Momo...
"Chen Qian, try this!" Yu Wangxi walked around the dining table and returned with some delicious food. Facing the food in front of him, Chen Qian opened his mouth and took the hand in front of him.
really tasty!
Chen Qian was so absorbed in the food that he didn't notice that the person next to him had a darkening expression and a fading smile.
"Senior Chi Mu, you are here too." Yu Wangxi just noticed Chi Mu's presence and said eagerly.
"Yeah." Chi Mu replied lightly as a response.
Was it an illusion? Chen Qian felt that he seemed to have suddenly cooled down, different from just now. Why did he suddenly feel bad? He couldn't guess what he was thinking, so he had to give up.
"Senior said this is delicious too, you should try it." Before he could eat the small cake in his hand, he couldn't help but share it with his fellow fan.
Recommended by Chi Mu, it’s delicious!
Yu Wangxi was busy with something in his hands and had no hands free to take the cake. Chen Qian could only use a fork to take out a small piece and put it to his mouth. Although the piece of cake was small, because the two of them were clumsy in feeding and did not cooperate well, the cake could not be avoided from getting on his face.
"Ah! Squad leader, don't move, let me wipe it for you." Chen Qian looked at the cream on Yu Wangxi's face and looked for paper embarrassedly, but he had nothing else to use except the pocket handkerchief on his chest, so he reached out subconsciously.
"Don't use the pocket handkerchief, I have some paper here." Chi Mu stopped Chen Qian's hand holding the silk scarf, took out a tissue from somewhere, and wiped off the cream for Yu Wangxi with his own hands in two or three strokes.
Yu Wangxi opened his eyes wide, said thank you, but backed away little by little.
Although he was unable to recover from the accident, Chen Qian was led astray by Yu Wangxi and subconsciously said thank you.
He thought to himself, and couldn't help but feel sour. Is Chi Mu really so kind and helpful? This is not like his character at all.
"Young Master, the master is looking for you." The cold atmosphere was broken by the waiter who appeared hurriedly. Although Chi Mu looked reluctant, he still said casually that he had fun and left.
"Young Master? No, Senior Chi Mu is also a member of the Chi family? I thought it was just a coincidence that we both had the same surname." Yu Wangxi touched his face. He felt that Chi Mu used all his strength to apply the cream. It was so hot that he didn't know if it turned red.
He didn't provoke him, it just happened suddenly.
"Ah? Is that so?" Chen Qian didn't actually hear what Yu Wangxi said, so he just responded.
This was the first time he felt that Chi Mu was a friendly person. After knowing each other for so long, he only started to think so recently.
At first he thought it was a change in attitude towards himself, but now it seems more like he was struck by lightning one day and suddenly changed his temperament.
The banquet was scheduled to end at nine o'clock in the evening.
When Chen Qian and Yu Wangxi said goodbye and came back, they found Chen Tian sitting on the sofa in the side hall, slightly drunk, chatting with Chi Mu in a good mood.
When he came closer and called him, Chen Tian took him in his arms with a loving look on his face and leaned on him with the strength of his arm across his shoulders.
Chen Qian took back what he said about being tipsy, this big brother was just purely drunk.
Chen Qian's mind was not here, so he naturally didn't bother to pay attention to what they were talking about. His eyes wandered and finally landed quietly on Chi Muhuan's hands in front of his chest. The cufflinks were in such a position that he could see them clearly with his eyes slightly lowered.
Only after he calmed down and observed carefully did Chen Qian know.
Still different. Everything is very similar, and everything is different.
The small ruby on his cufflinks was a semicircular, crescent-shaped half-moon. His own, the man in the suit explained, was a sun. Chen Qian, not understanding design, dismissed it as nonsense: a round-cut gemstone, not a sun.
The excitement I had just felt has completely disappeared, leaving only a faint sense of bitterness lingering in my heart.
"Chen Qian." Chen Tian called him.
"what happened?"
"We'll stay here tonight." Chen Tian saw that his brother was not in high spirits. He guessed that he was sleepy and stroked his head twice. "It's getting late. Do you want to go to bed first?"
"Yeah, sure." Feeling low and tired after a lot of socializing can be roughly equivalent to feeling a little sleepy.
Following the waiter who led the way, Chen Qian walked through the mahogany stairs and corridors, turning left and right to reach the guest room assigned to him.
After taking a shower, my head felt much clearer and I put on the clothes that the servant had just brought me.
I don’t know if it was Chen Tian’s instruction, but the pajamas fit me unexpectedly well.
Chen Qian moved to the window and gently pushed it open.
The early summer night breeze was very refreshing, blowing the loose hair on Chen Qian's forehead into the dance.
Outside the window is the garden of the Chi family mansion. It is unexpectedly beautiful when viewed from this perspective, with mountains, rivers, plants and trees.
Walking in from the gate, the view was very limited. Only by standing on the upstairs like now could one get a general idea of the scenery. He looked into the distance, where there was a pavilion.
This was the first time Chen Tian had witnessed the strength of the so-called Chi family. He had always assumed that Chi Mu's background was similar to theirs, a family with connections and a solid foundation in the city. He had never expected this to be the case. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them a wealthy family.
Normally, it's really hard to tell.
But it's true, Chi Mu has a kind of elegant temperament, a very noble temperament, which no one else has.
Should have known this earlier.
Chen Qian took a long breath and expelled the foul air.
At this moment, he felt that he was one step further away from the moon, with a Milky Way standing between them for no apparent reason.
As he approached the bed, the breeze brought up his hidden drunkenness and, along with his sleepiness, made Chen Qian fall into sleep little by little.
It seemed like someone opened the door in the middle of the night. Chen Qian could feel people walking around. He couldn't wake up and suddenly thought it was a dream.
After the sound of dripping water, something with a tide came towards him, and a warm and slightly hot breath surrounded him and held him in its arms.
The window was still open, and the cool air was driven away. He couldn't help but curl up, feeling very comfortable with the warmth.
Someone called his name, over and over again.
Chen Qian...
Chen Qian...
He was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, so he turned around and grabbed the person who made the noise: "Stop making noise... I'm so sleepy..."
After a chuckle, the world fell silent again.
A dreamless night.
Chen Qian woke up, feeling refreshed.
I slept very soundly last night. I don’t know if it was the fragrance in the room that helped me sleep, or if the wine I drank last night was just right.
There was a bag at the door, and when it was opened, there was a new set of clothes. Chen Qian thought it must be Chen Tian's arrangement, so he changed into it in no time.
The Chi family's old house was very big, and Chen Qian didn't remember the way, so he had to use the bell in the room to call the servants to take him downstairs like yesterday.
When they arrived at the restaurant, there were only a few people sitting there. Chen Tian had already taken his seat and was chatting enthusiastically with the Chi family. Chen Qian sat down next to him and, relying on Chen Tian's hints and instructions, greeted everyone one by one.
The breakfast was a rich mix of Chinese and Western styles, and he put food on the plate according to his preferences.
