Chapter 36
"Is there someone?" Xing Lan looked subconsciously, "Why is this voice so familiar?"
Gu Heng said softly: "I'll go and have a look, you stay here first, what if there is any danger?"
Behind the abandoned house, Pei Musi's back was pressed against the cold wall, sweating a lot.He was in a hurry just now, so he sneezed to stop them, but how did it end now?
It would be too embarrassing for Xing Lan to follow them.
Gu Heng's footsteps approached slowly, stepping on the withered leaves and making a crisp sound.Under the moonlight, the figure behind the abandoned house swayed with the moonlight, and it was very clear.
He casually picked up a stone from the ground and walked slowly, testing it step by step.
When the face of the figure appeared in sight, he was slightly taken aback.
Why is Pei Musi here?
"Gu Heng, is anyone there?" Xing Lan stood on the spot looking around, rather anxiously: "Do you need me to go over?"
Gu Heng threw the stone on the side of the road casually, patted the dirt on his hands, and said with a smile: "You will know when you come here."
When Xinglan came over, she was surprised and said, "Mumu, why are you here? Didn't you go home?"
Pei Musi's body was stiff, and he leaned against the wall and said, "I'm bored, so just walk around."
"It's a 50-minute drive from your home, you're useless just walking around." Gu Heng obviously didn't believe it, and asked with his arms crossed, "Then you heard what Xing Xing and I just said?"
The corners of Pei Musi's mouth curled up into a cold arc, and his light-colored pupils stared at him aggressively: "What? Are you talking so shamefully to him? Or do you feel that you are using bad means to try to reach other people? The target, is it despicable?"
The smile on Gu Heng's face froze: "Despicable?" While speaking, he rushed towards Pei Musi quickly, with the air of a fight.Pei Musi was not afraid, and had no intention of evading. He still stood there waiting for him with his usual expression.
At this moment, Xinglan stretched out his arms to block them, and dragged Gu Heng back like carrying a chicken, "Sorry Gu Heng, you can't bully Mu Mu with me here."
Gu Heng laughed out of anger. Does his Mu Mu look like a pure and innocent little white flower who needs protection?
Xing Lan was so strong that he couldn't break free at all, so he had to be dragged away by Xing Lan to a place far away from Pei Musi.
Pei Musi said coldly: "If you let him come, it doesn't mean who wins or loses in a fight."
After tidying up the wrinkled clothes, Gu Heng saw that Xinglan had already run to Pei Musi's side, obediently holding his arm, and understood that he was already an outsider, and no matter how hard he struggled, it would be useless.
So facing the moonlight, I left lonely.
Now only Xing Lan and Pei Musi were left, remembering what he said just now, Xing Lan's face turned pink shyly, he let go of his arms, and turned his back to Pei Musi.
"Mu Mu, did you hear what I said just now?"
Pei Musi pondered: "Yes."
"Then you...then do you hate me?" Xing Lan became nervous and said in a stuttering way: "If you don't like me, I can bury this love in my heart so that no one will know."
Pei Musi replied: "I don't hate it."
Xing Lan finally turned around, scratched her head and said in embarrassment: "That's good, I'm afraid you won't want me after you know I like you."
"What do you like about me?" Pei Musi stared at him: "Can you tell what kind of liking you have for me? Is it for your family or your partner?"
"Because you are very kind to me, and you are also very handsome. I have liked you since the first time I saw you. You are very important to me, like my most beloved treasure, and I don't want to share it with others. Seeing that I like you I will be jealous and don't want him to come close to you." Xing Lan added angrily: "For example, Bai Qingli, I don't like him."
"And of course I can tell what kind of love I have for you. My love for you is the kind of love that I want to have a baby with you, although I can't have a baby."
Xinglan's voice is very soft, and she speaks very seriously, especially clear in the night, with a pair of bright pupils shining with brilliance.
After hearing his answer, Pei Musi gradually looked away, and actually began to worry about an extremely hypocritical matter in his heart.
He asked in a low voice: "If someone else adopted you back then, would you like someone else now? I just happened to show up when you needed help. If Gu Heng adopted you, would you like someone else? Gu Heng?"
Xing Lan was a little dazed by this question, and muttered in a low voice: "Why do you make such an assumption? Is it important?"
"It's very important to me." Pei Musi walked to the river, "If you're not sure, you don't have to answer."
Xinglan jogged to follow: "Mumu, have you heard of Yuelao?"
"I know, it's just in a fairy tale." Pei Musi replied in a low voice.
"My father told me. He said that from the time a monster is born, who he meets, who he stays with, and when he dies, there are definite numbers. It is predestined. I can meet you and like you, which shows that I am a little boy. You are in the monster's life, it is a fate destined by heaven. If I had to assume that it was Gu Heng who I met at the beginning, I don't think I would like him."
"Why?" Although Pei Musi was nervous, he tried his best to maintain calm.
"Because I like Mu Mu's appearance, but not his." Xing Lan laughed out of embarrassment.
Pei Musi's expression was relaxed, and his tone rose: "Oh~ so you are a little saucy, have you taken a fancy to my looks?"
Xing Lan poked his heart with her finger: "And your soul."
"Hey!" Pei Musi raised his eyes lazily, "Okay, I received your like, as for the reply--" Before he could finish speaking, Xinglan happily interrupted: "Mumu! Then I Can I chase you openly?"
"Ah? You want to chase me?" Pei Musi hesitated between his brows, "Actually, if you insist on me, I can do it with you—"
"Yes, yes!" Xing Lan excitedly took Pei Musi's hand, and said with an expression that he didn't know which TV series he learned from: "Mu Mu, please give me a chance to love you, let me show it May I?"
Xing Lan's hand was very warm, it was soft and comfortable to hold in the palm.
Pei Musi cleared his throat: "Since you are so proactive, then I will give you a chance to express yourself."
"it is good!"
As soon as the words finished, Xing Lan had already pulled Pei Musi's arm and carried him on his shoulders, and said, "Mu Mu, are you tired? I'll carry you home."
Pei Musi endured the bumps, his face was full of black lines: "You don't have to be like this."
On the taxi home, Xinglan hooked his fingers and approached Pei Musi bit by bit, thinking that the other party hadn't noticed, he smiled slyly, quickly picked up Pei Musi, and hummed a ditty while pretending to be innocent.
Pei Musi continued to pretend nothing had happened, and let him lead her.
When Xinglan confessed to him just now, he wanted to agree, but the other party's brain circuit was different from ordinary people and insisted on pursuing him.
However, Pei Musi was quite looking forward to how he would pursue him.
Will it be coquettish at every turn?
It's annoying, but it's okay.
......
When going to school the next day, Lu Huai noticed that the atmosphere between the two was not right.
"Brother Pei, why are you blinking at the stars today? What time did he come home last night? Did you beat him up?"
Pei Musi glanced at Xinglan who was writing the schedule on the blackboard and did not forget to wink at him, and explained: "No, there may be something wrong with the eyes."
"Have you heard? Director Zhang caught a few dormitory students who were in love in the small forest last night, and they need to be checked during the exercises tomorrow."
"But the grove is really magical. I heard from my friend that the success rate of confession there is very high."
"Hey, I'm going to confess my love to the boys in the next class after I graduate from high school."
The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.
Those words just now flowed into Xinglan's ears without uttering a single word.
He thought about it thoughtfully, and planned to go there with Pei Musi to try it out tonight.
Lao Huang walked in with his textbook in his arms and announced an important matter.
"Recently, the school will organize a field training camp. The time is on the weekend. If you want to go, please bring the registration fee to me and sign up by tomorrow."
"Teacher, what are you doing in the field training camp?" Lu Huai raised his hand and asked.
Lao Huang replied: "Actually, it's just playing some small survival games in the wild. The school organized it after seeing that everyone is too tired recently."
In the classroom, the students were beaming and chatting.
"Mu Mu, shall we go?" Xing Lan asked after returning to his seat.
Pei Musi asked back: "Do you want to go?"
Xing Lan held back her excited expression: "I want to go."
"Then go." Pei Musi took out the cash from his schoolbag, "I'll go to Lao Huang to sign up later."
A sour voice came from behind: "Brother Pei, haven't you always disliked participating in this kind of group activities? When camping last year, you thought the quality of the tents was not good, the lunch was not good, and the games organized by them were childish."
"Yeah, why did you participate so happily this year?" Jing Yi joked.
Before Pei Musi could speak, Xing Lan said directly, "Sure enough, after being single for a long time, I started to get eccentric."
Pei Musi gave Xinglan a good job, and leisurely went to Lao Huang to sign up.
Pei Musi's wallet was on the table, Xing Lan suddenly thought of something.Pei Musi's birthday will be here in a few days, and he still has no money to prepare gifts.
So he begged Lu Huai with a straight face: "Lu Huai, can you sell some diamonds for me? I need money more recently."
Lu Huai, who had just been bullied, rolled his eyes: "Hey, is someone calling me a single dog?"
Xinglan bulged her cheeks and muttered, "Be careful."
As he said that, he retracted his body and prepared to support himself. After all, it is not good to bother others too often.
He searched many ways to sell diamonds on Baidu, and finally determined that a nearby jewelry store can exchange diamonds for money, and planned to sneak there after school.
There are about sixty or seventy pink diamonds in his schoolbag, which can be worth a lot of money if sold, enough to buy Mu Mu a precious birthday present.
Mumu will be very happy to receive the gift at that time.
Right now, it's about how to sneak out.
No. [-] and [-] in the No. [-] Middle School have evening self-study, but not the first grade. After the ninth class, the students in the first grade can leave school directly. This is the meal time for the second and third grades.
It was easy for Xing Lan to sneak out, but if he came back, he would have to fuck.Fortunately, the walls of the school were effortless for him, and he could easily get in.
After planning, he began to implement the plan secretly.
After finally making it to the big break, Xing Lan pursed her lips, lying on the desk as if she had no bones, and began to pretend to be sick.
Pei Musi was a little anxious: "Why do you suddenly feel unwell? I'll ask for leave and take you to the hospital."
Xing Lan waved his hand weakly: "Mu Mu, I may have a stomachache at special times every month, so I'm not feeling well."
He often heard girls talking about these topics. At that time, he guessed that all human beings should have this problem every month, and their stomachs would be uncomfortable.So temporarily lie, find this reason.
Lu Huai who was on the side asked in surprise: "Xing Xing, you... have a stomachache every month?" "Ang." Xing Lan clutched his belly, "Just about those things every month, you don't have to worry about me, I'll be fine in a while."
Pei Musi gasped, squatted down and looked at Xinglan's stomach, unable to calm down for a long time.
"Otherwise, I'll take you to the hospital."
"No!" Xinglan shook his head like a rattle, "Mumu, go play basketball and have dinner, I'll be fine by myself."
Seeing that Xinglan is so determined, Pei Musi can't force him to take him to the hospital, and if Xinglan is really every month... Could it be that the monster's body structure is different from ordinary people?
In the corridor, Lu Huai wondered: "Brother Pei, isn't Xing Xing a boy? How could there be a big aunt? Could it be?"
Pei Musi was also a little uncertain, but explained calmly on the surface: "It should be because I watched too many cartoons."
There were only a few people left in the classroom, Xing Lan put the diamond bag in his pocket, sneaked in among the freshman crowd, and walked out of the campus.
Finally arriving at the jewelry store, Xing Lan was quite nervous and walked in.The person who received him was a young lady who saw that he was wearing the school uniform of No. [-] Middle School and asked, "May I ask you what to buy?"
Xing Lan took out the bag: "Excuse me, do you buy diamonds here?"
The young lady was surprised: "Diamond? Can I see it?"
Xinglan smiled and opened the diamond: "Here, sixty or seventy pieces, how much do you think they are worth?"
The young lady's complexion changed, and she stammered: "Please, please wait a moment."
When Pei Musi returned to class with the hot water, Xinglan had already disappeared.Worried that something would happen to him, Pei Musi rushed to the toilet, but there was no Xing Lan inside.
He searched the entire building, but still couldn't find Xinglan.
At this moment, his cell phone rang.
"Hello, are you Mr. Pei Musi?"
Pei Musi thought he was selling insurance, so he frowned and said, "Yes."
"We are the police, who is Xinglan? We now suspect the origin of the diamond in his hand, can you come to Huajiao Gold Shop?"
After Pei Musi hung up the phone, he hurriedly asked Lao Huang for leave and ran out of school in a hurry.
The Huajiao Gold Store is not far from the school, and it takes only 10 minutes to run there.
Panting and opening the door of the gold shop, Pei Musi saw Xinglan huddled in the corner, crying hard while hugging the diamond, his eye circles were obviously red, and he looked aggrieved like a little quail.
"Uncle policeman, I really didn't steal the diamonds! Please believe me."
The policeman smiled helplessly: "We didn't say you stole it, but just wanted to contact your parents. After all, you can't even provide your own ID number."
Seeing Pei Musi coming in, Xing Lan immediately ran over to hide behind him, sniffled and said, "Mu Mu, you're here."
Pei Musi patted his hand, signaling him not to be afraid.He said to the policeman, "Hi, I'm his brother, what happened?"
The police replied: "Your brother came here to pawn diamonds worth 300 million. The clerk saw that he was a student and asked him to show his ID card, but your brother couldn't show it, and he couldn't even recite his ID number, so the clerk called the police. After all The amount involved is significant."
Pei Musi took out his and Xinglan's ID cards from his wallet, "Sorry, I have my brother's ID card with me."
After a careful inspection, the policeman smiled and said, "Okay. So where did so many diamonds come from? Just now the clerk told me that these diamonds are of high purity and value, and there is no trace of processing. "
"My family runs the entertainment industry. I recently purchased a batch of diamonds, planning to process them myself and design jewelry for our actors. My dad gave some to my younger brother and me."
After finishing speaking, Pei Musi called his uncle's phone number and said, "If you need to find my parents, you can contact him. Because my dad is busy with business abroad, and my uncle works locally."
The police glanced at the name in the address book, but did not continue to ask.
"It's good to investigate the origin of the diamonds. I hope the students don't blame us. We are also thinking about everyone's safety."
"Of course, it's hard work." Pei Musi took back the diamond, and led Xing Lan out of the gold shop with his face full of tears.
On the side of the road, Xinglan sniffed and pursed her mouth twitching.
Not only did his plan to sell the diamonds to buy gifts for Pei Musi fall through the cracks, but he was also found out by the police uncle, who dragged Pei Musi to come and scoop him up during school time.
This performance must be very bad.
"Don't cry." Pei Musi took out a tissue and wiped his snot off finely. He didn't forget to say something disgusting: "It's so dirty. Why are you selling so many diamonds?"
Xing Lan said disconsolately: "I'll buy you a gift, your 18th birthday is coming soon."
"Buying gifts and selling so many diamonds? People thought you were a high school student engaged in an illegal profession and being monitored and exploited."
Xinglan knew he didn't understand, and her voice became smaller and smaller: "How can Mu Mu's birthday gift be cheap? I want to give you a good one."
Seeing his pitiful appearance, Pei Musi couldn't bear to blame him, and said softly: "Okay, birthday is just a formality, it doesn't matter whether you give it or not, and it doesn't necessarily cost money."
Xing Lan nodded her chin: "Yes."
After putting away the diamonds, Pei Musi faintly remembered an important matter.He seems to have never given Xinglan pocket money.He usually charges the meal card and buys the clothes on his behalf, completely ignoring that Xing Lan, as a high school student, should have what he wants.
"Here is this for you." Pei Musi took out some cash and handed it to him, "Pocket money, I will get it from me every month on a regular basis. I will also transfer some money to you on WeChat, buy whatever you want, don't sell diamonds anymore gone."
Tears were still hanging on the slender eyelashes, Xinglan held a thick stack of Grandpa Mao, and said, "Can I spend whatever I want?"
"Well, it's up to you. But don't do anything illegal."
"Thank you, Mu Mu." Xing Lan put the money neatly into his pocket, and smiled through tears: "I have money too."
Pei Musi smiled softly: "Stupid."
When they rushed back, they sneaked in from the back of the school, and the evening self-study had just started.
After putting the money into the schoolbag, Xinglan secretly glanced at Pei Musi, the corners of his mouth curled up higher and higher.
Mu Mu treats him well, ouch!
Thinking of the grove at the school, Xing Lan wished he could carry Pei Musi to confess his love, and let him know how touched he was and how much he liked him.
But now it's evening self-study, so I can't act rashly.
Her mind had already reached the grove, Xinglan didn't have the heart to study, she just watched the clock on the wall and counted the seconds.
Finally, when get out of class was over, he mysteriously asked Pei Musi to go out with him.
Outside the teaching building, Pei Musi saw him sneaking around, and asked suspiciously, "Where is this going?"
Xing Lan bowed and greeted him: "Small woods."
"Where are you going? What are you going to do?" Pei Musi said so, but still followed him forward.There wasn't much rest time between classes, Xinglan thought Pei Musi was walking slowly, so he picked him up anxiously, and trotted towards the grove.
Pei Musi didn't like this feeling, his lower abdomen pressed against Xinglan's thin shoulders, and it hurt a lot.He patted his shoulder lightly to signal to stop, but the other party didn't listen at all, instead his footsteps became faster and faster.
It would be embarrassing if the students saw it like this.
Pei Musi sighed softly.
Finally got into the grove, most of the surrounding tree trunks have become bare, a few scattered yellow leaves hanging.
There were stones all over the ground under his feet, Xing Lan stepped on them, his center of gravity gradually became unstable, and he was dangling with Pei Musi on his shoulders.
The light in the grove was dim, Xing Lan sprained his ankle when he put Pei Musi down, and threw himself into Pei Musi's arms, the two of them fell to the ground, embracing each other in an ambiguous posture.
Touching Pei Musi's arm, Xinglan leaned on him and raised her head: "Mu Mu, I came here to tell you that I like you very much."
Pei Musi was lying on the ground, his body hurting a lot: "Well, you confessed your love last night."
"But I want to say it again today." Xing Lan sat on Pei Musi and smiled sweetly: "Mu Mu, thank you for your pocket money, I like you even more."
Pei Musi hooked the corner of his mouth: "Give you some pocket money to like me more? So easy to satisfy?"
"Yeah." Xing Lan raised her hand: "I swear, I will never leave you forever!"
Suddenly, a flashlight flashed behind him, Xing Lan hurriedly got up and turned his head, Director Zhang's voice and footsteps were slowly approaching.
"Who is here! Come out quickly!"
"Puppy love, right! Wait for the examination tomorrow!"
"Mumu run!"
Pei Musi struggled to get up, but Director Zhang's flashlight was already shining on his face.
"Mus, why is it you?" Director Zhang looked at him strangely, "Is there anyone else? Xinglan is also here, right?"
Pei Musi was lying on the ground, and there was no one around.
"Xinglan is not here, he went to pull bamboo shoots on the mountain."
