Su Qingluan initially felt that she was the one who was kept in the dark, so she was quite angry. But even if she is extremely angry, as long as she finds a reason to persuade herself, it will quickly subside. As the saying goes, "the anger is not strong".
What's more, after Su Qingluan thought about it carefully, he realized that Mu Xingzhi was naturally capable of doing such a thing according to his cautious personality, and there was nothing wrong with doing so just for safety reasons.
She was just a little depressed. After all, she was considered a member of this "team" and should naturally be trusted accordingly. Therefore, this level of "ventilation" seemed to Su Qingluan to be almost a matter of course.
Mu Xingzhi treated her as an outsider and "hidden it", which made her very unhappy.
However, Su Qingluan is a person who has lived two lives after all, and she will not suddenly quarrel about everything. She soon did her own ideological work: in a sense, everyone else has experienced layers of Su Qingluan believes that in addition to ability, this "selection" also involves quality selection.
In this case, those of them are objectively more trustworthy and reliable than themselves.
Although this made Su Qingluan feel a little frustrated, she could also understand the reason rationally. And because of this incident, Su Qingluan's brain, which was a little heated because he realized his feelings for Mu Xingzhi, also calmed down.
Mu Xingzhi had been secretly observing Su Qingluan's expression since just now. He expected that she would be angry - after all, Mu Xingzhi had already foreseen this happening when he decided to let the other party negotiate the price without naming the store owner.
Of course, objectively speaking, he did not "lie", but selectively did not reveal too much about himself. As for what the other party thought, it was the other party's own use of imagination, and it was not considered "liar" on his part, so Mu Xing Zhi was even prepared to ask, "Where did I lie to you" when the other party questioned him.
Of course, according to Mu Xingzhi's own emotional intelligence, there was no need for him to deliberately anger Su Qingluan with such emotional remarks, but he did it on purpose.
It is said that "love doesn't know where it starts, it goes deep once it goes on", but in fact, the so-called "bystander knows better", even before Su Qingluan himself realized his feelings for Mu Xingzhi, Mu Xingzhi had already been vaguely aware of it as the object of his liking. Got to this point.
At the beginning, he also noticed that Su Qingluan might have felt close to him unconsciously, but was not aware of the changes in her feelings, so Mu Xingzhi was happy to pretend to be confused - after all, Su Qingluan's behavior was... It's very appropriate, nothing crosses the line, and it's not offensive.
But recently, Mu Xingzhi realized that Su Qingluan must have noticed something, or decided to change something, seeing that his expression had slightly changed slightly compared to before.
This is not a good sign—for either person.
Mu Xingzhi fully understood what kind of path he would take in the future, but he also understood that even if Su Qingluan admired him in her heart, she would not become a caged bird because of him. She truly belonged to The woman of the vast world.
He thought to himself that at least for the sake of the other party's wholehearted help in helping him, he must at least ensure that he gives her a bright and free future.
Of course, he didn't say this to anyone, otherwise Song Bo Guo, who has been serving by his side, would make a fuss: Boss, when did you promise any conditions just for helping others? When did the boss become such a trustworthy and conscientious person?
But it was precisely because of this very subtle thought that Mu Xingzhi wanted to interrupt Su Qingluan's feelings for him without leaving any trace, otherwise he would always feel a little...not sure how to deal with it.
So even though he might be disliked, Mu Xingzhi decided that when Su Qingluan questioned him, he would answer the question until he was speechless.
However, what Mu Xingzhi didn't expect was that although Su Qingluan was still angry at first, later on, he seemed to have figured it out and started talking and joking with Songbo and Yaoguang who were sitting outside. Laughing, my attitude towards him returned to normal.
This actually surprised Mu Xingzhi.
It was not until the night that we rested and stayed again. Since we had already left the more prosperous Qingzhou City, the guest rooms were not in short supply. When everyone could finally stay in a single room, Su Qingluan privately suggested that Yao Guang should stay in a single room, leaving three people. She stayed in a triple room, and she and Mu Xingzhi stayed in a double room.
In this way, it will be more "in line with the personality".
By this time, Mu Xingzhi was 100% sure that Su Qingluan was really not angry at all and had truly regained his composure.
Because Su Qingluan's plan was the optimal solution, no one had any objections. However, Mu Xingzhi was curious about why Su Qingluan could quickly regain her composure - after all, in his opinion, according to Su Qingluan's temperament, it would have been impossible for her to do this if she hadn't found a very reasonable reason to persuade him. Recovered quickly.
"I thought you were angry." Mu Xingzhi felt a little strange.
"I'm very angry, but I also know that this is just to vent my anger." Su Qingluan was very frank, "Actually, I just got into trouble myself, but in fact, I want the same treatment as your confidants. That is simply a fantasy. ——I haven’t gone through layers of selection.”
Mu Xingzhi was stunned when he heard the words: He originally thought that Su Qingluan was broad-minded, but she didn't expect that she had completely misunderstood. Of course, she could quickly persuade herself to get rid of her excited emotions. From this point of view, Su Qingluan could not It's considered "broad-minded".
Seeing Mu Xingzhi's teasing smile, Su Qingluan rolled her eyes angrily: "Why are you laughing? I admit that my thoughts are childish, but are you laughing a little too much?"
She knew that this idea of "a new and unconvinced boss is better than an old employee who has worked hard all the way" was very childish and ridiculous, but did she need to smile so hard that she didn't deserve a beating?
When Mu Xingzhi was reminded by Su Qingluan, he realized that there was a smile on his face. He didn't know why he laughed unconsciously, but he felt that Su Qingluan who was so angry was a bit... interesting.
Seeing Su Qingluan staring at him more and more sharply, Mu Xingzhi stopped his smile and looked at her: "Who said you haven't passed the 'handsome selection'? Could it be that Qingluan thinks that just a random person can do it?" Have you become 'Mu Xingzhi's wife'?"
When Su Qingluan heard Mu Xingzhi's words, she understood intellectually that what he meant was: As "Mu Xingzhi's pillow person", she also needs to be trustworthy enough to make it possible for Mu Xingzhi to take care of both. Two identities, but knowing this, I couldn't help but feel happy.
