Confess to you, do you want to listen?

Chapter 77 The meaning of the drunkard
The sky is so gloomy, and there are shallow shadows under the eaves.

When Chen Xiao heard this, he glanced at Gu Shi'an, brushed off the cigarette ash in his hand, and said, "What are you thinking?"

He said and went to the house.

In the morning he got up earlier than Gu Shi'an, and he didn't rest at noon.He didn't look tired.I poured myself a glass of water, raised my wrist to check the time, and asked, "I can still climb the mountain later, do you want to go for a walk?"

It's boring to stay on this mountain, so Gu Shi'an nodded and said yes.

Chen Xiao was very careful. He took out his documents, wallet and other important things and took them with him. After closing the door, he said to Gu Shi'an, "Let's go."

He should have walked through it once, but he is very familiar with the road.

The air on this mountain is fresh, and the temperature is lower than that at the bottom of the mountain.Even though it was still a bleak early spring, the trees on the back mountain turned out to be lush and lush.Occasionally, unknown small purple and white flowers can be seen among the rocks.

I don't know where the water came from, but a small stream meanders down the path.

Gu Shi'an originally thought that there was no one in the back mountain, but after walking a few steps, he found that there were two or three pedestrians.Some people even brought food and ate it on stones.

There is a tall stone tablet in front of it. It has been a long time ago, and the writing on it has been blurred.I can barely see the origin of this temple.

Chen Xiao looked up, and suddenly said, "Grandpa and grandma have also been here before."

Gu Shi'an didn't expect him to mention this, so he was slightly taken aback.

Chen Xiao didn't say anything, and continued to walk forward.

Paths paved with bluestone slabs criss-cross the woods, and there are small birds in the woods, pecking at the fallen food crumbs.Gu Shi'an wanted to find something to say, but couldn't find it, so he silently followed behind Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao took pictures while walking, and occasionally, when Gu Shian was not paying attention, he would turn around and take pictures of her.

Gu Shi'an tried to stop him several times to no avail, so he let him go.It's just that when the camera is aimed at her, she will turn her face away uncomfortably.

The higher you go, the fewer pedestrians there are.After walking so far, Chen Xiao handed the camera to Gu Shian when he saw an octagonal pavilion in front of him.

Gu Shi'an was puzzled, looked at him, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Xiao said now: "I'm anxious, go and make it easier." He winked at Gu Shi'an, smiled evilly, and said, "Together?"

Gu Shi'an snatched the camera from his hand and ignored him.

Chen Xiao wasn't angry either, he pointed to the pavilion and said, "Go and sit over there for a while, and I'll be back in a while."

As he spoke, he looked around, and when he saw someone coming up, he went to the side path.

Gu Shi'an ignored him and went to the pavilion.

It seems that people do not come to the pavilion very often, and there are many fallen leaves on the path.After crawling for a while, Gu Shian's forehead was covered with sweat, so he let out a sigh of relief and sat down on the stone bench in the pavilion.

She originally thought that Chen Xiao would come back soon, but she didn't see him come back after waiting for ten minutes.

Gu Shi'an didn't know if he had gone back to the temple, he hesitated for a moment, and took out his cell phone to call him.

I don't know if the signal here is not good or what, but the phone has not been connected, and the prompt cannot be connected.

Gu Shi'an was somewhat anxious, waited in the pavilion for a while and still did not see Chen Xiao, so he called him again.

This time the call still didn't go through.There were no people around, Gu Shi'an didn't know whether Chen Xiao had returned to the temple, so he decided not to wait.

She originally wanted to go back the same way, but she was afraid that Chen Xiao would come back, so she hesitated for a while, and walked to the side road that Chen Xiao took.

The forest here is dense, and the path that Chen Xiao took should not be walked by people very often, so it looks more peaceful.

The sky became more gloomy at this moment, as if it would darken at any moment.The bluestone slab under his feet was worn smooth due to the years, Gu Shi'an did not dare to walk too fast, and walked slowly.

The surroundings were so quiet that it made people panic. When she reached a slightly flat place, she was about to speed up her pace when she heard voices talking on the path next to her.

Not knowing what kind of psychology it was, Gu Shian walked over.

Among the dense miscellaneous trees, two people were faintly seen standing in the forest.One of them is not Chen Xiao.The other person was dressed in black casual clothes, with an unknown tattoo tattooed on the exposed left muzzle.

Not knowing what the two of them were talking about, Chen Xiao's brows were gloomy.Breathe out smoke from time to time.

After a while, Chen Xiao raised his wrist to check the time, put out the cigarette butt, and reached out to pat that person's shoulder.I don't know what to say, the man quickly went down the mountain.

Chen Xiao stood there for a while, and when he turned around, his face was no different from usual.

The place where Gu Shi'an was standing was not considered hidden, as soon as Chen Xiao looked up, he saw her clothes.He was slightly taken aback, and then said with a playful smile, "Daughter-in-law, did you come down by yourself?"

I didn't know who that person was just now, but judging by his attire, he definitely wasn't from Chen Xiao's company.

Gu Shian hummed.

Chen Xiao looked up at the gloomy sky, and said with a smile: "It's going to rain, and I'm going back to call you. I won't have to go up again after you come down."

He acted as if nothing had happened.He didn't ask Gu Shi'an if he saw anything.

Gu Shi'an didn't say a word.She knew that Chen Xiao would not just stay here for no reason, so she was silent for a while, before finally asking: "Who was that person just now?"

Chen Xiao probably guessed that she saw it, so he was not surprised.The corners of his lips hooked and he said, "A friend."

His tone was understated.

Gu Shi'an obviously didn't believe it, and looked up at him.

Chen Xiao had a playful smile on his face, and he pinched Gu Shian's face with his hand, and said, "Daughter-in-law, are you worried about me?"

Gu Shi'an didn't take his words seriously, and asked, "Are you an employee of your company?"

Now Chen Xiao lazily said no.He obviously didn't want to continue the topic, so he went straight ahead.

The luck of the two of them was pretty good, as soon as they went down the mountain, it started to drizzle.The mountain was already humid, and it was even colder in the house when it rained.

Probably because of the rain, Gu Shi'an sneezed as soon as he entered the room.

The weather here is warm, and the clothes brought by the two of them are thin clothes.Chen Xiao frowned slightly, and asked Gu Shi'an to cover it under the quilt.

Gu Shi'an just said it's okay.She said and sneezed again.

Chen Xiao looked at her with a smile on his face.

After all, Gu Shi'an couldn't stand the pressure of his eyes, took out a tissue, rubbed his nose, and obediently went to bed.

Chen Xiao didn't say much now, and went out directly.

Gu Shi'an originally wanted to ask him where he was going, but he still didn't say anything.

Silence returned to the room, and she closed her eyes.After more than ten minutes, there was the sound of footsteps outside.

Gu Shi'an opened his eyes, and after a while, he saw Chen Xiao walking in with a big bag and a broken pot that he didn't know where to find.

Gu Shi'an was a little puzzled, sat up and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Light the fire." Chen Xiao said it very succinctly.

Moved the table in the room to the side, then placed the Napoleon pot in the center of the room, and took out blackened coals and dried bamboo strips from the pocket.

In an orderly manner, he first lit the dry bamboo strips, and then slowly added charcoal lumps to them after they were ignited.

The charcoal block was slowly ignited by the bamboo stick under his fiddle, and Chen Xiao let out a sigh of relief.He took out the tongs and took another block of charcoal from his pocket.

There is a charcoal fire in the room, although it has just been lit, it seems that it is not so cold.

Gu Shi'an also got up from the bed. She was curious and asked, "Where did you get these?"

The way he lit the fire was very skillful, not like a person who usually doesn't touch the spring water with his fingers.

Chen Xiao said lazily, "There is nothing money can't do."

But is there anything money can't do?
Gu Shi'an fell silent now.Chen Xiao looked at the time, stood up, and said, "You just stay here, the cafeteria is serving dinner. I went over and ordered the food."

Gu Shi'an originally wanted to say that there was no need to bother, so he had already walked out.

Charcoal fires burn quickly, and one layer after another burns vigorously.When Chen Xiao came back, the broken pot was already ablaze.

Gu Shi'an was sitting on a small stool and was poking with the tongs from time to time. The fire light shone on her face, and her face was bright red.

Chen Xiao hooked the corner of his mouth slightly, put the food box on the table, and said, "Eat."

In addition to carrying a food box, he also took an electric kettle.He didn't know what was in the other black bag, so he randomly put it on the ground.

The meal at night is much more delicate than that at noon, so it should be a small stove.He came quickly, and the rice was still hot.

He was very diligent today, Gu Shian took the bowl and chopsticks from him and said thank you.

I don't know if it's because he ate too much at noon or what, but Gu Shi'an doesn't have much appetite.The bowl was quickly put down.

After Chen Xiao finished eating, he boiled water, poured it into a cup and motioned Gu Shian to drink it slowly.He returned the food box and bowls and chopsticks by himself.

The fire illuminated the room brightly, and Gu Shi'an didn't feel sleepy after taking a nap at noon, so he sat by the fire with the quilt in his hand and drank water slowly.Thinking of the person who talked to Chen Xiao in the forest in the afternoon, he couldn't help being a little distracted.

Her intuition told her that Chen Xiao must have something to hide from her.Even coming here is not entirely because of the old lady's arrangement.

Gu Shi'an looked at the flames in front of him, feeling slightly dazed.

Chen Xiao answered very quickly this time, and came back not long after.

Seeing that Gu Shi'an was in a daze, he sat down opposite her, took the pliers to poke the charcoal, and asked slowly, "Why, you're not used to this place?"

Gu Shi'an just said no.

Chen Xiao scoffed, glanced at her, and said nothing.He lit a cigarette and smoked.

He was so lazy, he didn't speak, he just stirred the charcoal fire from time to time.

Gu Shi'an watched silently, the room was extremely quiet, only the crackling sound of the charcoal fire bursting from time to time.

Gu Shi'an was silent for a while, and asked, "Where are you going tomorrow?"

Chen Xiao didn't answer her words. He got up and took out a printed travel guide from his backpack and threw it to her. He said lazily, "Look for yourself, you can go wherever you want."

Gu Shi'an took it over, but didn't look at it, and said, "If you don't have to go anywhere, go back."

Chen Xiao stretched out his long legs, exhaled smoke, and said lazily: "Daughter-in-law, grandma arranged for us to go out for honeymoon. You should also save face a little. Don't be so listless. Now leave for work There are still a few days, you pick a few places, play until you go back to work."

He was lazy all over, and he couldn't tell if he was joking or serious.

Gu Shi'an glanced at him and asked, "Are you busy?"

Chen Xiao curled his lips together, as if he knew what Gu Shian was thinking, and asked, "Daughter-in-law, if you have anything to say, just say it, don't go around the bush."

Gu Shi'an was silent for a while, before finally asking: "What are you doing here?"

Chen Xiao asked her to ask, but it didn't mean he would answer.Lazily said: "Come to play." His eyes flickered slightly, and he asked with a smile: "Daughter-in-law, what do you think I am here for?"

There was some amusement in his tone.

Gu Shi'an replied with a dull face: "I don't know."

Chen Xiao dusted off the cigarette ash in his hand again, took a puff of smoke and sprayed it slowly on Gu Shian's face, and said with a smile or not: "Women, don't ask too many questions. Otherwise, men won't like it."

He will never be right.Gu Shi'an knew early on that nothing would come out of his mouth, so he didn't speak again.

Naturally, Chen Xiao would not stop talking about this topic. After smoking a cigarette, he pulled over the black bag that was left aside.He took out the sweet potatoes from inside, picked them up with tongs and put them on the side of the brazier to roast.Then he looked at Gu Shi'an with raised eyebrows, and asked, "Have you eaten?"

He really regarded Gu Shi'an as a three-year-old child.

Gu Shi'an ignored him.

His movements of roasting sweet potatoes are quite deft, as if he has done that many times.This kind of Chen Xiao Gu Shi'an felt a little strange.She was so absent-minded for a while.

She wanted to ask something, but after all, she didn't open her mouth and said nothing.

The water in the glass in her hand was already empty, and Chen Xiao poured her another glass.Probably because she is afraid that she will catch a cold. There is no cold medicine here, so I can only drink more boiled water.

It didn't take long for the sweet potatoes to emit an attractive sweet fragrance, but Chen Xiao was very patient and not in a hurry.It wasn't until they were all roasted that they were soft, and then one was placed at Gu Shi'an's feet.

Gu Shi'an took the paper and wrapped it up, slowly peeling it off.The sweet potato was hot, so she changed her hand for a while, and waited until she had peeled so much, before taking a bite carefully.

Chen Xiao lit another cigarette and picked it up. The corners of his lips curled up, and he said, "Do you think your man is very powerful? You won't die of hunger anywhere."

He acted like a ruffian.

Gu Shi'an took another bite of the sweet potato cautiously, and said casually: "It would be great to light a fire and roast a sweet potato. The master chefs in the cafeteria are invincible."

Chen Xiao squinted his eyes and said, "Gu Shi'an, haven't you heard the word cannibalism?"

Gu Shi'an replied without thinking: "I haven't heard of it."

Chen Xiao snorted and said, "The teeth are sharp."

Gu Shi'an took another bite of the sweet potato and said, "No matter how sharp your teeth are, you can't compare to you."

She deliberately emphasized the word you.

Chen Xiao narrowed his eyes and looked at her for a while, then said with a smile: "It seems that I really misjudged you before."

Gu Shi'an didn't say anything anymore.

Chen Xiao didn't continue, picked up the tongs and picked up the sweet potatoes.The sparks in the brazier exploded from time to time, and the sweet scent of sweet potatoes wafted through the room, making it peaceful and peaceful.

Although Chen Xiao roasted sweet potatoes, he didn't eat much.

Gu Shi'an didn't eat much for dinner, but he ate three sweet potatoes.She still wanted to eat, but she was going to sleep soon, afraid of food accumulation, so she didn't dare to eat again.

Because of the fire, the house became warm.The little novice gave them the keys to two rooms. Gu Shi'an originally thought that Chen Xiao was going to sleep next door, but he didn't leave after washing up.

Gu Shian went to bed, and he followed suit.

Gu Shi'an looked at him vigilantly, and asked, "Aren't you sleeping next door?"

Chen Xiao still looked lazy and said, "I'm too lazy to leave. Besides, don't you think it's not safe enough here? I sleep here to protect you."

What he said later was quite serious.

He was very thick-skinned, and he lay down after speaking.

Gu Shi'an didn't move for a while, Chen Xiao blinked her narrow eyes and looked at her, and said with a smile or not: "Daughter-in-law, this is a pure place of Buddhism, where do you want to go?"

His voice was deliberately low, adding a bit of ambiguity.

Gu Shian choked and lay down.

Chen Xiao didn't know if he was tired or what, so he stopped talking now.

The beds in temples are hard and the quilt is only a thin layer.Gu Shi'an was not used to it, but he fell asleep in a daze after a while.

She woke up from the cold in the middle of the night, and the brazier had been extinguished at some point.It was freezing in the air.She was not next to Chen Xiao, her hands and feet were cold.

She just moved, Chen Xiao seemed to feel something.His long arms stretched out and took her into his arms.Gu Shi'an's body froze, and he was about to struggle away.Chen Xiao in his sleep stretched out his hand to touch her forehead again.Mostly to see if she has a fever.

Gu Shi'an's struggling movements stopped for a moment, and he just lay in his arms.

Chen Xiao's body was warm, and Gu Shi'an closed his eyes.Suddenly he remembered that night, when she asked him what he would do if he was pregnant.

Her heart was numb, and she just closed her eyes motionless.

Gu Shi'an woke up at dawn the next day, and Chen Xiao's hand was still around her waist.She was going to get up, but she didn't move in the end.Waiting for the sky to brighten outside, then got up.

The drizzle had stopped outside, but the yard was still wet.The temple in the early morning has started the day's life in an orderly manner.There was a vigorous bell from the other side of the hall.

Chen Xiao hadn't gotten up yet, and Gu Shi'an had nothing to do.I went to the main hall to watch the monks in the temple doing morning classes.

Some devout pilgrims have woken up and started offering incense in the shop.

Yesterday's rain came too fast, some rushed to pack up their things and leave.Gu Shi'an walked around, but he didn't see the man who talked to Chen Xiao yesterday.I don't know if I haven't gotten up yet or went down the mountain early.

Chen Xiao never came over, nor did he call.Gu Shi'an waited for the monks to finish their morning class before bringing breakfast back.

When he went back, Chen Xiao had just finished washing. He glanced at Gu Shi'an and asked, "Where did you go?"

Gu Shi'an now returned to the Ju Hall.Then he gave Chen Xiao the vegetarian buns he brought over.

Chen Xiao took it, looked at the time, and said, "Didn't you hurry to leave last night? Let's go."

Gu Shi'an agreed, and the two went out together.

He said he was leaving, but Chen Xiao had a lot of things to do.After returning the key, they went to the cafeteria again, and the two went down the mountain together.

After it rained, it was not very easy to go down the mountain.The ground is slippery, and it is more laborious than going up the mountain.

I stopped and walked all the way, and it was already past ten o'clock when I fell down the mountain.Gu Shi'an broke out in a thin layer of sweat.

Chen Xiao checked the time when he got in the car, then turned his head to look at Gu Shian, and asked lazily, "Have you decided where to go?"

Gu Shi'an didn't look up, and said, "I want to go back."

Chen Xiao insisted yesterday that he didn't go back until he went to work after playing, and he didn't know why he changed his mind today.He tapped his watch a few times and said, "I'll go to the mall to buy some special products later, and I'll book a flight back tomorrow morning."

After a slight pause, he looked at Gu Shi'an, and said with a smile: "What do you plan to say when grandma asks?"

Gu Shi'an didn't think about this question, and was taken aback for a moment.

Chen Xiao started the car, and said lazily, "There is still a day, think about it."

He didn't know who called him, but he looked at it, picked it up, and started talking on the phone.

He didn't go to the mall, but went straight back to the hotel.

Only then did they realize that the middle-aged man who picked them up the night before was already waiting in the hotel.Gu Shi'an was a little puzzled, but Chen Xiao said, "Go up and take a shower and change your clothes. Manager Luo will take you shopping at the mall later."

As he spoke, he walked over to greet that manager Luo.

Chen Xiao didn't delay, and came back as soon as the elevator got off, and got into the elevator with Gu Shi'an.

There were only two people in the elevator, Gu Shi'an looked at the rising number, looked at Chen Xiao, and asked, "Aren't you going?"

Chen Xiao looked at her with a smile on his face, and said, "Daughter-in-law, you are so smart, you still ask this question? Naturally, I don't have to go with Manager Luo."

As he spoke, he moved closer to Gu Shian's ear, lowered his voice and said, "What about me, I have my own business. You'd better not ask about it."

After he finished speaking, the elevator stopped. The corner of his mouth hooked evilly, and he walked out first with the car keys.

What he just said didn't seem like a joke, Gu Shi'an paused slightly before walking out.

At this moment, Chen Xiao became nonchalant again, took out the room card and opened the door of the room.It was as if nothing had been said just now.
