For the first time, Xu Xiaoshou could so clearly feel that the source of the sneeze was not a whim, but a foreign object in his nose, which made him itchy.
Head lowered with sneezing.
In "Perception", Xiao Lian seems to be still in a sluggish state because of the special location of the fruit pulp.
What Xu Xiaoshou saw in front of him was the grape pulp on the smooth thighs that was exposed by the slit of Xiao Lian's cheongsam after being hit by the force of the sneeze.
He was startled for a moment.
The atmosphere solidified.
It was obviously the other party's fault in crushing the grapes, so he should be angry.
But the mood that should have been angry was because of the second destination of the grape pulp, which made Xu Xiaoshou feel embarrassed and a little difficult to get angry.
By some strange coincidence, he stretched out his hand and pressed the flesh of the fruit.
Delicate and tender to begin with.
Still a little warm.
"Can't see, can't see..."
But trying to hide it is useless after all, because the juice overflows from between the fingers and thighs under the squeeze.
Xu Xiaoshou looked stunned again.
The spiritual energy in the body is transformed.
"Chi~"
The juice is evaporated by the high temperature.
He flicked it, and the dried pulp flew away from under the coffee table.
Xiao Lian finally reacted.
He lowered his eyes, turned red, and said angrily and amusedly: "Do you think I'm blind?"
"hug……"
Xu Xiaoshou subconsciously wanted to apologize, but when he thought about it, he was now Mr. Xu, and he didn't do it on purpose.
The other party made a mistake first!
"You promised, there won't be a third time?" His face turned upright, and his voice was terrifyingly cold.
Xiao Lian was stunned.
How did he do it as if he had never done anything?
With this question, for a moment, she even forgot about the other person touching her thigh.
Only then did I recall that the common condition for this person and me to reach a deal before was "no third time"?
Looking at the completely cold face in front of him, Xiao Lian suddenly didn't know how to respond.
Xu Xiaoshou's toes were already firmly clasped on the ground, and he was about to pursue the victory and use his identity as Mr. Xu to suppress this embarrassment.
Suddenly, he felt his nose itching again.
This time the itching came from deeper.
It seemed that the foreign matter embedded deep inside the nostril was squeezed out due to speaking and muscle movement.
"A sneeze!"
Unable to resist his body's instinct, he sneezed again.
This time, the two of them lowered their heads and could more clearly see a black line running down Xu Xiaoshou's nostrils and landing on Xiao Lian's thighs again.
The location is a little higher.
Fruit seeds!
"..."
The scene froze again.
Even Xiao Lian could not imagine that such strange things could happen twice in such a short period of time!
It's obviously just a simple skinning and feeding, why...
Why did things evolve like this?
Before she had time to react, Xu Xiaoshou's familiar hand stretched out for the second time and pressed it gently.
This time the touch was clearer and warmer.
Xiao Lian:???
"Under suspicion, passive value, +1."
"What are you doing?!" She said every word, her body trembling with anger, her face as red as a ripe apple.
Xu Xiaoshou raised his eyes.
Under the other party's gaze, he could no longer push the seeds away directly, so he only said coldly: "The fourth time!"
Veins protruded from the corners of Xiao Lian's eyes, and her whole body tensed up.
The warmth coming from her thighs made her feel ashamed, but also had a fearless impulse to kick this prodigal son away.
But with this thought in his mind, before his body started to move, there was a "pop" at the door, and a waiter with an excited expression came in holding a report sheet.
"Miss! Report..."
The voice stopped suddenly.
The waiter rushed towards the door, but as far as he could see, no one was there.
Looking back again.
The man and woman sitting on the sofa were close to each other, leaning towards each other, as if something was going to happen in the next second.
The sofa turns out to be that big...
One of them is stern, the other is red-faced. The key is that the man's hand is still on the woman's thigh...
"Under suspicion, passive value, +1."
"Being admired, passive value, +1."
"Being praised, passive value, +1."
The air temperature instantly dropped to freezing point.
Time seems to be frozen.
The waiter's heart finally pounded, and he closed his eyes at the speed of light.
He spent his entire life cultivating himself to minimize his sense of existence.
Then, under the gaze of those two scorching eyes, he quietly retreated to the door step by step.
"Crack."
The door is closed.
Xu Xiaoshou wailed in his heart.
have to!
This young master’s lifelong reputation...
Xiao Lian's chest rose and fell rapidly, and at this moment she felt her heart pounding faster, reaching her throat.
She was so furious that she wanted to kill Mr. Xu on the spot for ruining her innocence, but...
"Crunch~"
There was a sudden sound on the door.
The two of them were alert at the same time. Their bodies froze, their heads came back halfway, and they looked again.
This time, no one came in.
But a small corner of the door handle was caught, and the report sheet that was slowly pulled out fell into the eyes, which was so dazzling.
At this moment, time suddenly became so long, so long...
"Dong dong dong."
It wasn't until there was a very serious knock on the door that the man and woman on the sofa finally returned to their senses and reacted.
Xiao Lian's beautiful eyes were widened in an instant, and she ignored the knock on the door and became tense all over.
When the slender jade legs are exerted, you can clearly feel that the lines and texture have completely changed.
"Under sneak attack, passive value, +1."
Almost at the moment before this message popped up, Xu Xiaoshou used lightning speed to cover up Xiao Lian's angry shouts with one hand, then pressed the other person's neck with his backhand, pushed him onto the sofa, and used
The body blocks the opponent's movement.
"You did a good job!" He struck preemptively.
Xiao Lian:???
She struggled hard for a few times, but she was completely unable to break away from Xu Xiaoshou's huge force.
It's like a sheep meeting a lion. Even if spiritual energy surges all over his body, the person on his body can completely restrain him with just the strength of his body.
"Uh-huh!"
"Rebuked, passive value, +1."
"Being resisted, passive value, +1."
"Received glare, passive value, +1."
His eyes were wide open, but other than killing with his eyes, Xiao Lian could not resist Xu Xiaoshou's actions.
Xu Xiaoshou shook his head and looked at the person under him with disappointment. He covered his red lips with his left hand, not giving him a chance to speak at all.
"I said that there is no third time, but I never expected that there would be a fourth time."
"Also, I asked you before whether the doors and windows were locked, and your answer was 'yes'."
"I believe you so much, but you deceive me again and again. This deal..."
He took a deep breath and wanted to speak.
There was a "pop" sound at the door, and there was a strange movement for the third time.
This time, Xu Xiaoshou froze on the spot.
Is Duojin Trading Company crazy?
The waiter saw the scene just now, and naturally his imagination went wrong.
How dare you open the door again?
The two turned their heads almost at the same time.
As soon as the door crack opened, the waiter outside couldn't hide his exclamation.
"Elder Qiu, you can't go in, inside... you must not do it, hey, hey, no, no, don't."
"roll!"
A gray-haired old man ignored the dissuasion and jumped in with an excited expression, "That ointment is a miracle work. I can't wait for a moment, just want to see what kind of genius can develop... huh?"
"
The voice stopped suddenly.
The same search for no one ahead, the same sideways glance.
The only thing the old man did more than the waiter who jumped into the room before was that he lowered his head.
Because this time.
The man and the woman were lying on the sofa in tall and low postures.
Six eyes facing each other.
The room suddenly became quiet.
The old man's eyes bulged and he looked horrified.
The only half of the report sheet he was holding in his hand seemed to indicate the violent dispute that had occurred outside the door.
At this moment, the report sheet was clenched under the huge force out of control, making a "sand" sound.
Extremely harsh!
"Being horrified, passive value, +1."
Under the gaze of a man and a woman on the sofa, an old face with wide eyes could actually form a mysterious smile under the corners of its lips, which was profound.
"Understood, passive value, +1."
The next second.
The old man retreated slowly and silently, as if time was flowing backwards.
The door was also closed softly and quietly.
As the door cracks open, you can still vaguely hear the faint noise outside.
"Idiot, why didn't you tell me earlier!"
"I said no, I said no..." The waiter's voice was extremely aggrieved.
"But you didn't say that, that..."
"What should I say? What should I say!"
"...Well, that's also a roar?"
Snap.
The door is locked.
The room returned to dead silence.
"Received glare, passive value, +1."
"Being cursed, passive value, +1."
"Being resisted, passive value, +1."
Xu Xiaoshou finally realized that their posture was wrong and stood up.
This wave...
After this wave, Xu Shao guessed that there was really no need to pretend, it was already fully formed!
Xiao Lian was still resisting fiercely, but suddenly lost control and bounced off the sofa with a heavy thud.
Her first reaction was not to exclaim or take action, but to quickly arrange her clothes and sit upright.
It was as if the two of them were silenced at the same time.
It was clear that my mind was full of mixed thoughts, and all kinds of words were stuck in my throat, but I couldn't say a word.
wait……
long wait……
There was an unspoken silence as they all waited for the solemn and solemn knock on the door to come again to break the awkwardness and dead silence in the room.
But this time, the people outside the door behaved well.
After waiting for a long time, there was not even a hint of noise, let alone a knock on the door.
Very well behaved!
"Being insulted, passive value, +1."
"Being disliked, passive value, +1."
"Under peeping, passive value, +1."
"..."
Xu Xiaoshou didn't even need to ask out loud, he knew how turbulent the heart of the woman at the other end of the sofa was.
He chose to break the silence: "At this time, someone should actually open the door."
The information bar stops.
Later.
"Being cursed, passive value, +1."
"Being cursed, passive value, +1."
"..."
Seeing that the other party was still silent, Xu Xiaoshou tilted his head and added: "Because the people inside are closed, they may wait until late at night, or tomorrow."
The information bar stopped again.
Xiao Lian's face, which had already subsided from the fever, was once again congested and terribly hot.
She jumped up and didn't even dare to look back at Xu Xiaoshou. She stamped her foot fiercely and strode forward.
"Crack."
The door opens.
Xiao Lian was stunned.
Because the waiters and Elder Qiu were not the only ones standing in front of him.
Dozens of elders from Duojin Merchant's Medicine Pavilion had gray hair on their heads, stroking their beards and chins with eager expressions.
Elder Qiu comforted each one with earnest words and explained something meaningfully.
behind this group of people.
Because of the collective commotion of the elders of the Medicine Pavilion, high-level people from the commercial bank came to watch, fearing that something unexpected had happened.
After all, these old men are the treasures of the firm.
And because of the appearance of senior executives of the commercial bank and a group of old men, the commotion caused by this side hall attracted countless people passing by to stop.
These people can't get close.
But from a distance, they began to discuss what happened here.
The eagerly awaited gesture also attracted a large wave of extremely curious people, who began to gather together and talk about it.
Xiao Lian's heart sank to the bottom.
No need to listen to the content.
Just by looking at Elder Qiu's expression, she knew that she was in danger of dying.
"Is it done?"
As soon as the door opened, Elder Qiu turned around in surprise and jumped to the front first, "Has everything been cleaned up inside?"
Xiao Lian:???
"What am I..."
"I know, I know."
Elder Qiu interrupted, lowered his head and said, "I understand, I understand very well. After all, I was young too", he raised his eyebrows and said, "You didn't do anything, right?"
Xiao Lian's eyelids twitched, and there were dark lines on his face.
"I……"
She was speechless for a moment.
This wave...
Even if you jump into the Yellow River, you won’t be able to wash away this wave!
"It's really not what you think..." She explained feebly, knowing that her words were useless, she made room in front of the door and said, "Come in first."
Elder Qiu jumped into the room.
Then he took a deep breath and found that there was no peculiar smell, then nodded with satisfaction.
Even so, he still waved his hand and opened all the windows.
Ventilation is important.
Xiao Lian's face turned red, and she buried her head directly on her chest, almost digging a crack in the ground and stuffing herself in.
Why was the old naughty boy Elder Qiu the one who took the lead this time?
It's obviously just a report...
But looking at the elders of the Medicine Pavilion who were filing in outside the door, they had different expressions.
Needless to say, she also knew that the "red gold liquid" produced by the evil man on the sofa was stable!
The door was closed and locked.
Elder Qiu glanced at Xu Xiaoshou up and down several times with an expression as if he was sizing up his grandson-in-law, then stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction: "Young Master Xu?"
Xu Xiaoshou's figure is wide open, his waist is straight, and he is sitting on the sofa with a righteous expression.
"I've met all of you, seniors." He didn't get up because there was no need.
"Um."
Elder Qiu's eyes playfully turned away from the wine spilled on him and on the sofa.
The people in the Medicine Pavilion are not people who only care about rules.
Moreover, if we really talk about the rules, even if they are senior, this group of people may not necessarily have the qualifications for Mr. Xu to stand up and greet them.
He went straight to the topic: "This red gold liquid was developed by Mr. Xu?"
"Yes." Xu Xiaoshou nodded.
"Dare you ask Mr. Xu..."
"Tenth grade."
Xu Xiaoshou pointed to the tenth-grade alchemist badge on the coffee table, cherishing the words like gold.
At this moment, all the old men in the room were stunned.
"Under suspicion, passive value, +23."
Elder Qiu turned his head in Xiao Lian's direction doubtfully, "Girl, is what he said true?"
Xiao Lian nodded subconsciously.
Then he reacted, his earlobes turned red, and his heart became even more crazy.
Why ask me?!
We just met, okay. Nothing happened to us. He is right here. You can ask him directly!
