C220 (1/2)
It was better to have it than not. The mosquito leg was also meat, and half a tael of silver was a lot.
Chen Qingyun took it, and after hesitating for a moment, he looked at Chen Mu Mu.
”Little sister, I promise I won't spend so much money when I go out this time.”
”It doesn't matter. Whether you spend it or not, there's still so much.” Chen Mu Mu Mu spread out his hands. ”Remember, it will be gone after you spend it.”
Actually, the capital was expensive. Half a tael of silver really wasn't enough to buy anything.
Chen Qingyun sighed, sneakily glanced at Chen Mu Mu, and asked: ”What if I choose something?”
”To work.” Chen Mu Mu smiled. ”I can pay you for your work.”
Chen Qingyun's eyes lit up: Are you serious?
”Of course, although you're my brother, I can't let you waste your time on me, can I?” Chen Mu laughed as he changed the topic, ”Of course, you're my blood brother. Similarly, I won't raise you for nothing, let's see how much money you want from me. It'll depend on how you do things.”
Chen Qingyun's brows twitched.
”I see, boss.”
His little sister was quite clear that they were siblings. However, it was good to have a clearer idea. He could also gather some money.
”Good boy.” Upon seeing him enlighten the others, Chen Mu's eyes curved into a smile.
As one of the three largest economic cities in the country, Beijing's prosperity was naturally hard to describe. Twenty-four streets lined up side by side, and every street was bustling with activity. There were so many people that it was an eye-opener.
Chen Qingyun curiously scuttled in front of various stalls. However, when Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu clearly stated that he would not pay for it, he also restrained himself a lot.
Chen Mu Mu Mu was a little helpless, ”Why do I feel like you're more of a woman than me?”
If she remembered correctly, shopping was a woman's hobby, right?
”It's my first time in Beijing.” Chen Qingyun was used to being beaten by her, so she was not angry, and said: ”The outside world is ever-changing, I used to sit at the well and watch the sky, but now I have easily jumped out, and am naturally curious about everything.”
He then looked at his calm sister, ”Isn't this your first time in the capital? ”Why are you so calm and not excited at all?”
”Of course there is. It's just that I'm not as bold as you.”
Of course, she didn't go shopping. She came here to see how the local customs looked like, and to look for new business opportunities.
Only by getting familiar with the city's plans could he be able to survive in this city.
Chen Mu Mu Mu still wanted to open up a clothing shop and restaurant, so when he saw places like clothing stores and restaurants, he would go in and take a look.
The capital city was so big, yet the roads were so small. The moment she entered the clothing store, she saw a familiar figure.
”Feng Lingxi?” Chen Mu Mu Mu stared at the back view of the young lady in red, he was completely astonished by her performance.
Hearing someone call his name, the girl quickly turned around. Her red dress spread out like fire and her face was pretty. She seemed to be filled with the vigor of youth.
”It's you?” Feng Ling Xi recognized Chen Mu Mu Mu at a glance and quickly walked towards her with a happy expression. ”When did you arrive in the capital? Why didn't you come to my house to look for me?”
She was warm and bold, and she came over and took her aside to talk.
Looking at her familiar appearance, a thought flashed across Chen Mu's mind. He chuckled lightly and continued, ”It's not that I'm not looking for you, but I've only just arrived at the capital today, so it's inconvenient for me to find a place to stay.”
”So that's how it is.” Feng Lingxi didn't ask any further as she looked past her to look at Chen Qingyun, a glint in her eyes: ”Who is this? Could it be that you abandoned Lu Jinfeng and did not want him anymore? ”
These words were too unpleasant to listen to. What did she mean by abandoning him or not wanting him? It was obvious that he didn't want her … Ah pooh, it was them who caused the ruckus. No, that's not right. Originally, there was nothing between them.
Although Feng Lingxi was careless, she wasn't stupid. When she saw Chen Mu Mu Mu's expression darken, a light flickered in her eyes as she said, ”Did you guys fall out?”
Chen Mu Mu nodded his head, ”Indeed.”
There was nothing to hide. With her personality, if she was curious, even if she didn't say anything, Feng Lingxi would still find out.
Compared to being investigated, she might as well say it herself.
Feng Ling'er frowned: ”How can this be, according to Lu Jinfeng's stiff personality, even if you gave him ten Sap, he still would not retaliate, did you bully him?”
Chen Mu Mu glared at him. ”Who are you trying to help?”
”Even though we are rather close to each other, we shouldn't let others suffer because of you, right?” ”Tell me, what happened between you two, I guarantee that I won't make a mistake on Lu Jinfeng's behalf.”
Having such a friend would simply cause one to vomit blood.
Chen Mu Mu rolled his eyes gloomily, ”Keep your gossiping expression, I don't want to talk about it.”
”But I want to hear it.” Feng Lingxi said, ”It's rare for me to look favorably upon you two. If something were to happen between you two, wouldn't it be very aggrieved for me if I were to become a lady?”
Was she aggrieved?
Chen Mu Mu frowned, ”I can only tell you that it isn't my fault.”
