The Ninth Secret Bureau

v3 Chapter 3: Upcoming awards

Chen Xian also couldn't remember when he fell asleep.

When he woke up again, he only found that he was still holding his phone, leaning against the head of the bed like a salted fish, maintaining the posture he had used to scan posts on the Internet, and he also had a furry head in his arms.

"When did you come here?" Chen Xian looked at Mu He helplessly, raised his hand and gently rubbed her hair twice.

Mu He seemed to be still angry with Chen Xian. He buried his head tightly on Chen Xian's chest. He didn't raise his head and didn't speak. He hummed constantly, like an angry... ...pig.

Thinking of this, Chen Xian couldn't help but twitched his mouth twice, and he didn't laugh as he looked at the angrily little girl in front of him.

"You...Yesterday...Why didn't you stay with me..."

"Yesterday?" Chen Xian recalled for a while and replied, "I saw you were asleep when I came back, and I didn't go to accompany you for fear of waking you up."

Hearing Chen Xian's answer, Mu He suddenly lifted his head and stared at Chen Xian in anger.

"daytime!"

"During the day?" Chen Xian thought for a while, and suddenly realized that Mu He was talking about when he just returned to the branch office. At that time, he was really busy with other things. After bringing her back to the living room, he didn't accompany her anymore. "It was a little busy then, so..."

Before Chen Xian could finish speaking, Mu He suddenly buried his head again and rubbed against Chen Xian's chest very hard, as if he was acting like a cat to the owner. Chen Xian could not see her eyes, but from In the tone of her speech, Chen Xian could vaguely hear a feeling of fear.

"I don't like... alone... I'm not angry with you anymore..." Mu He's voice is still soft, but she can hear her moody , This is the first time that she has spoken in front of Chen Xian like this, as if she was really abandoned by Chen Xian. The pitiful voice makes people feel unspeakably distressed, "I'm afraid...a people......."

Chen Xian originally wanted to coax her a few words like coaxing a child, but I don’t know why, when he heard Mu He say these words carefully, he felt as uncomfortable as being blocked by a stone, as if suddenly again. Back more than ten years ago, I saw myself isolated by countless children.

I remember that I was the same as Muhe now. Everything in my life has to be cautious, and sometimes I have to overconsider the feelings of the other person, and I will try every means to please the other person, for fear that the hard-earned friend will be isolated as other people. Own, if that's the case, there is only one person left...Loneliness is really a terrible thing.

Although Chen Xian has become accustomed to living alone over the years, it is undeniable that he has also deliberately avoided and even selectively forgotten those things when he was a child.

But at this moment, he saw Mu He but he couldn't help but recalled it, thinking of the dark and helpless years for him. If he hadn't been with his grandfather Chen Ba had been with him... Maybe Chen Xian His character will be even more withdrawn than it is now, and maybe even a different one.

"Are you unfamiliar with this world?" Chen Xian asked suddenly.

Mu He didn't seem to understand it, just as if someone who fell into the water grabbed his last support, still holding Chen Xian tightly and reluctant to let go.

"I used to feel very strange, just like you..." Chen Xian seemed to be muttering to himself, in a low voice, "I was also afraid of being alone when I was outside."

Mu He raised her head slightly, and through the hair gaps scattered between her forehead, she saw a somewhat unfamiliar Chen Xian.

Inferiority complex, cowardice, fear, pain...

These words that seemed to have nothing to do with Chen Xian suddenly appeared on his face.

Perhaps because of seeing Chen Xian like this, Mu He forgot to feel uncomfortable for a while. She was a little confused and raised the uninjured hand, and gently touched Chen Xian's face, as if to make sure that the person in front of her was not. Chen Xian.

Mu He quickly got the answer from the slightly warm touch. It was him, but this Chen Xian seemed to be more real than the previous Chen Xian, maybe this was the side deep in his heart.

Chen Xian seemed to realize that he was a bit gaffe, and the expression on his face was gradually taken back by him, as if he suddenly changed back to his usual appearance.

"I won't leave you behind."

Chen Xian said softly, his smile may not be so brilliant, but there is always a trace of gentleness in his eyes, just like the sunshine in spring, seemingly hazy and unreality, yet there is a kind of truth. Warmth.

Mu He didn't know what he wanted to say, he mumbled a few words that Chen Xian couldn't hear, and then nodded heavily.

"I will wash your face and brush your teeth first, and then take you to dinner."

"Uh-huh!"

In the bathroom, Chen Xian asked Mu He to sit on a small chair while he half-bended to help her wash her. His serious expression made people think that he was doing some kind of scientific research.

Mu He seemed to enjoy all this very much. She liked Chen Xian taking care of her very much, so when Chen Xian helped her brush her teeth, Mu He smiled, two white little feet dangling by the chair, clear eyes Putting it on Chen Xian from beginning to end, reluctant to move it away.

Just when Chen Xian was about to get a towel to wash Mu He's face, the door of the living room was knocked suddenly, and the sound of dongdongdong was very anxious.

Walking to open the door, Chen Xian saw Lu Yisheng who looked excited outside the door.

Before Chen Xian had time to ask, Lu Yisheng hugged Chen Xian and shook it frantically.

"Fuck the boss has something big!! Someone is coming from the headquarters!!!"

"..."

"I heard that the director said he was here to commend both of us specially!! We both posted it!!"

"..."

"Today is a good day. Everything you want can be accomplished. Today is a good day... Boss, why don't you speak?"

Lu Yisheng hummed halfway through, only then found that Chen Xian's expression was stiff and awkward.

say?

Chen Xian had all the desire to kill him.

Although Chen Xian and the others do not have many people who usually communicate with each other, at this point in time, it is the time when the employees downstairs came up to submit the information and submit the report, so at a glance... there are at least ten in the corridor. Several employees from various departments, and two cleaning aunts.

At this moment, their eyes were on Chen Xian and Lu Yisheng, and their eyes were as if they had seen two silly Xs.

"In..... Come in and talk..."

Chen Xian's expression was as rigid as a dead person, and he almost dragged Lu Yisheng back into his living room.

Closing the door, Lu Yisheng jumped and jumped like a mad dog that had been taken off, just like a stimulant.

"Oh fuck! Boss, you don't know how happy I am, right! Then you definitely don't know what the headquarter award means to a member! This is such an honor!"

"Glory?" Chen Xian was stunned for a moment, as if he couldn't understand the word well.

"Don't talk about those imaginary ones, just talk about the rewards they gave..." Lu Yisheng looked like a money fan, his eyes narrowed with a smile, and he kept rubbing his thumb and index finger. Our employees are still very generous, and every award is a big amount. I don't know how much they are going to give us both this time."

Chen Xian asked curiously: "The headquarter awards are only for money? Nothing else?"

"Something..... Yes, but as far as I know, there is rarely such a situation." Lu Yisheng scratched his head, "If you give something, you should also give some special equipment, such as magic weapons."

Chen Xian nodded and said nothing, it seemed that he was not as excited as Lu Yisheng had imagined.

At this moment, Chen Xian's cell phone rang suddenly, and he took it out to see that it was a call from Fatty Huo.

"Hello? Xiao Chen, are you awake?"

Hearing from the phone, Fatty Huo's tone seemed to be very happy, and the tone of his speech was upright, vaguely revealing a feeling of pride and comfort.

"Wake up." Chen Xian replied.

"Now you hurry up to wash up, don't eat breakfast, and find Xiao Lu by the way, and the people from the headquarters will see you later." Huo Fatty's tone became more serious, and it seemed that the elders were giving the younger ones. "You all dress me up more vigorously, and show off the style of our Ningchuan branch!"

"...Okay." Chen Xian replied.

The phone just hung up. Chen Xian put away the phone and looked at Lu Yisheng with a look of expectation, and said, "Huo Ju asked you to change clothes and dress up more vigorously, so that you can show off our demeanor."

Lu Yisheng nodded in a hurry, and felt that his hip-hop outfit was a bit too trendy. In formal occasions, he must wear a suit and tie!

"What about you?" Lu Yisheng asked Chen Xian.

"I didn't bring my clothes. I didn't have a place to change it. I just need to wash my face later..." Chen Xian said, yawning for a long time.

Just when Lu Yisheng was about to go back to change his clothes, Chen Xian suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help asking him: "You are the Master Lu on the local forum, right?"

"Huh?" Lu Yisheng was taken aback, unexpectedly Chen Xian would ask this, and nodded subconsciously, "It's me, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing." Chen Xian re-examined Lu Yisheng, and couldn't help sighing, "I just found out that you are very eloquent. Last night I watched you talk about Confucianism."

"Boss... Have you seen that post?" Lu Yisheng looked a little embarrassed, but a little unhappy, "You don't say help me, how tired I am spraying them!"

Chen Xian said calmly, "I helped you."

"Did you speak for me?" Lu Yisheng scratched his head, "Why didn't I see it?"

Chen Xian continued to say quietly, "I gave you a thumbs-up."
