The story of Rose starts with being a brother

Chapter 338 Luxurious Ex-Girlfriends

"Hmm! Senior, I feel like the coffee out there isn't as good as the one you make."

In front of a handmade coffee shop in Chenghuang Temple, Lin Quan took the coffee handed to him by the waiter, turned around, took a sip, and then whispered to Jian Xi next to him.

Jian Xi also had a cup of coffee in her hand, and hanging on her arm was a Little Green Tea bag and some weird things she bought.

Originally, she wanted to buy the Hanfu that Jian Xi picked for her, because she thought it was really beautiful after trying it on. But after hesitating for a while, she felt that instead of buying it in such a scenic spot, it would be better to ask Jian Xi to accompany her to a Hanfu store with better quality.

At least my boyfriend doesn't have to carry so many bags at this moment.

"Of course, I'm a professional." Jian Xi said proudly.

"Have you learned it specifically?" Lin Quan asked curiously. She had tasted the coffee that Jian Xi made for her before, but she was so busy reviewing at that time that she didn't ask much. Besides, Jian Xi only made it once or twice occasionally, so she almost forgot about it.

Jian Xi glanced at her and chuckled, "No, I learned it from my ex-girlfriend."

"..."

Lin Quan held the coffee cup with a little force and said in an unhappy tone: "When did Lin Xiao teach you? I know she makes coffee there every day at work, but I've tried it and it's just so-so!"

"Haha, it's not her, it's an ex-girlfriend from earlier."

Little Green Tea frowned and thought for a while, then pouted and said, "Forget it. Where did you get so many ex-girlfriends? They taught you how to choose Hanfu and how to make coffee. Lin Xiao said that you two were each other's first love."

Speaking of the latter part, Little Green Tea's tone became a little sour. No matter how much she usually thought that Lin Xiao was mentally ill and was an insignificant opponent, the fact that he and Jian Xi were each other's first love always made her feel sour.

Since the waves behind are pushing the waves in front out, can the waves in front just be beaten to death on the beach? It's really annoying that they are still making trouble here!

Jian Xi smiled when he heard this, and said with some emotion: "I told you, I'm telling the truth, these are really what my ex-girlfriend taught me."

"Where are they? Pull them out and let me see!" Lin Quan snorted, "Don't tell me you've been in love since elementary school. They are all your ex-girlfriends from elementary school."

"Well..." Jian Xi thought for a moment before saying, "They are all in my dream. They might be my girlfriends from my previous life."

"Heh." Lin Quan rolled his eyes at him. "By ex-girlfriend, you mean the girlfriend from your previous life? Senior, your reason is really new!"

"believe or not."

The dog man shrugged. Even though it sounded outrageous, he was telling the truth.

Xiao Lu Cha took a sip of coffee, reached into Jian Xi's coat pocket and held his hand, then blinked and said, "I believe it, I believe it, I believe everything you said~ Then tell me, besides these two ex-girlfriends, do you have any other ex-girlfriends who taught you things in your dreams?"

"Wow! You asked the right question, I really do have it!"

The dog man laughed, looked at the dense crowd in front of him and said sincerely: "Some taught me design, some taught me wine tasting, some taught me bartending, and some taught me sculpture, painting, singing, playing musical instruments, etc. To be honest, I may forget the painting techniques I learned in college, but what my ex-girlfriends taught me was very profound."

After a pause, Jian Xi noticed that the little green tea beside him looked a little unhappy, so he smiled again and said, "But it's a pity that there are still people teaching me chemistry. It's not easy for me to learn this because the professional barriers are too great."

"..."

Lin Quan's eyes twitched. The paper cup of coffee in her hand had been slightly deformed by her squeezing. After trying her best to control her emotions, she took a deep breath, smiled and gritted her teeth and said, "Anything else...?"

"Hmm... let me think about it." The dog man pretended not to hear her suppressed anger, and after showing a serious look of recollection on his face, he smiled and reached out his hand from his pocket to pinch her face and said, "I'm just kidding, how could there be more!"

"Hmph! You..."

"But I still vaguely remember the foreign teachers who taught me Japanese, French, German and several other foreign languages. Oh, I also know a little bit of ancient Latin. That teacher was a fan of ancient Roman culture. When he got excited, he would utter classical Latin words."

"..."

The little green tea girl looked confused. After several seconds, she widened her eyes, walked quickly to the man, and stared into his eyes seriously.

She had to first judge whether what this bastard said was true or nonsense, and then decide whether to be angry.

Jian Xi was so happy in his heart that he looked at the little green tea girl in front of him for a few seconds before he couldn't help but smile and hooked his arm around her neck and said, "I'm just kidding. How can I have so many ex-girlfriends? You don't really believe it, do you?"

Lin Quan was held on the shoulders by him. He arched his neck but still couldn't get rid of this posture. Finally, he had no choice but to give up. But he still said in a bad tone: "Do you really know these things? And those foreign languages."

"Of course, I learned it from watching movies."

"Really?"

"Just kidding."

"..." Lin Quan was speechless, and finally said dejectedly, "Which of your words are you teasing me?"

"you guess?"

"Senior, I find you a little annoying."

"Shouldn't you think of me as a treasure? There are so many interesting places waiting for you to explore. Look, there is a pottery shop over there. I will make a small Linquan for you. Do you still hate me?"

"Well... then I like you again, hehe~"

……

The black tiles and flying eaves stand upright, and the red door has painted holes open.

In front of the City God Temple, Nan Xiang stood under the plaque that read "Secure the Sea Edge" and looked around with a frown. He held up his cell phone for a long time before reluctantly putting it down.

"That's weird. Didn't we say we were going to the City God Temple to worship the City God? Has Jian Xi already finished worshipping and left, or has he not arrived yet?" Nan Xiang frowned, looked at the screen of her phone, and pouted, "He didn't even reply to my messages, and the line was busy when I called him. Is he playing a trick on me?"

Nan Xiang looked at the people coming in and out of the gate next to her, and suddenly she felt like a fool standing there.

After taking a taxi to Chenghuang Temple, she hurried all the way, not even stopping on the pedestrian street for fear that she would miss Jian Xi. As a result, she stood there for a long time without seeing the other person.

Originally, she wanted to give the other party a surprise, but now Nan Xiang felt like a mentally retarded person no matter how she looked at it.

"Can mental retardation be transmitted through bodily fluids?"

Nan Xiang, who had graduated from college for more than a year, thought of her best friend Lin Xiao. Maybe she was infected by her through Jian Xi.

For a moment she thought this was really possible!

Looking at the people coming in and out of the City God Temple, Nan Xiang suddenly thought that since she was already here, she might as well go in and worship.

Especially at this moment, she thought of what Jian Xi said in the car years ago.

What happened to my best friend Gu Li during this period of time really seemed like the curse I had said at her birthday party had come true.

I haven't been in touch with Gu Li for more than a month. It's impossible not to miss her, but how can I break the deadlock now?
In the fight not long ago, I really had no intention of hurting Gu Li, but I was suddenly dragged into it because of an old score...

Nan Xiang bit her lip, stared at the crowd in front of her with her phone in hand for a while, then sighed softly and turned to enter the City God Temple.

What makes the City God Temple in Shanghai different from other places is that this temple enshrines three City Gods, namely Huo Guang, Qin Yubo and Chen Huacheng. However, the last one has moved away, and the main City Gods enshrined at present are the first two.

In addition to the City God, other gods are also enshrined in the City God Temple.

After all, love, wealth, career, further education, safety, etc. are what people care about most. Whether it is a temple or a Taoist temple, there are basically corresponding gods for everyone to worship.

After Nan Xiang entered the temple, she wanted to worship the God of Wealth Temple first as usual, but there were so many people in the God of Wealth Temple that there was no place to stand, so she gave up the idea of ​​adding more work to the God of Wealth. Then she wanted to go to the Yue Lao Temple to secure the red rope of Yue Lao for herself and her boss, but there were still many people there, and...

When I thought that I am just a mistress now and this kind of relationship cannot be made public, I became depressed. Yue Lao is an ancient person, and I don’t know if he can bless the modern new era relationship between men and women?

After much hesitation, Nan Xiang finally walked into the Cihang Hall where the couplet "Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and there are gods above your head" was inscribed.

My financial resources are now steadily increasing. Although my relationship with Jian Xi is not very public, I feel relieved after it was exposed. It is not a good time to have any further thoughts in the short term. So, it is best to pray for safety.

And...the most important thing is the current situation of myself and Gu Li.

The number of people worshipping in the Cihang Hall was smaller than that in the halls of the God of Wealth, Yue Lao, and the City God, so Nan Xiang quickly adjusted her mind when she came in.

'I pray to the Bodhisattva Cihang for help, so that I can restore my friendship with Gu Li as soon as possible. I hope that Gu Li will no longer have bad luck. If what I said to her in the past can be regarded as a curse, I hope that the curse will disappear. I am willing to pay the price for this. After all... it was my angry words that caused so many disasters. If my wish is fulfilled, I will come here to fulfill my wish...'

As a person who had rarely worshipped gods, Nan Xiang even put his hands together as if worshiping a Bodhisattva when he was worshipping the Taoist Bodhisattva Cihang.

But now, the way she frowned from time to time seemed more serious and sincere than when she was filling out the bank account.

"Also, I hope my mother will stop gambling. She..."

After making a wish with Gu Li, Nan Xiang started making other wishes. Just like other tourists who burned incense and worshipped gods, she basically asked for all her wishes at once, not caring about whether they were trivial or not. At least she felt at ease after asking for them.

'Also, my lover Jian Xi... I won't hide it from Master Cihang, but he and I are not lovers in the traditional sense... But I love him, and he loves me too... right? I also ask Master Cihang to bless him, and may all his wishes come true...'

'besides……'

Nan Xiang, who rarely went into the temple to worship the gods at this moment, was making a wish as if she had seen a shooting star. She kept pulling at the Bodhisattva Cihang in front of her, closing her eyes and gently moving her clasped palms up and down.

Although I didn’t enter the Temple of the God of Wealth and the Temple of Yue Lao, it doesn’t matter. I can just pour all the wine in front of one of the gods first.

Later on, after she had almost finished saying everything she had asked for, Nan Xiang's frown finally calmed down.

After a long while, she slowly opened her eyes and looked at the Bodhisattva Cihang in front of her silently.

At this moment, she also felt that what she did was a bit ridiculous, but she had so many things in her heart that after she said one, the others followed suit.

Is it useful to pray to gods and Buddhas?
Nan Xiang knew the answer before, but at this moment and here, she hoped that the previous answer was wrong.

If any of her wishes could come true, she would be very happy.

'Excuse me, Master.'

Nan Xiang sighed, stood up and was about to leave.

"Master, can you help me interpret my dream?"

"can."

Before stepping out of the hall, Nan Xiang subconsciously glanced to the side. A tall girl was standing at the table at the door, talking about her depression with a sad face to a man wearing glasses.

"I've been dreaming recently about a man and a woman I don't know playing the piano in a room, and when I wake up I can't remember what they look like..."

Nan Xiang looked away. Although she didn't see the girl's appearance, she could tell from her profile that she was pretty.

"Can erotic dreams also be interpreted?"

Nan Xiang muttered to herself, shook her head and put it behind her, then took out her cell phone and looked at it. After hesitating for a long time, she called Jian Xi again.

……

In the pottery shop, when Jian Xi just came over with the mud to make a small Lin Quan, Lin Quan took out his cell phone and said, "Senior, your phone number."

"Whose?" Jian Xi glanced at Little Green Tea's face and had already ruled out several options in his mind.

As expected, Lin Quan said with a normal expression: "Ye Chuanping."

"she?"

Jian Xi raised an eyebrow, took the phone and said with a smile: "Then I'll answer the phone, you can play around first."

Seeing her nod, Jian Xi didn't avoid it and answered the call directly.

"Hey, Aunt Ye, Happy New Year!"

"Haha, I wanted to go and wish you a happy new year, but I'm afraid you might be too busy these days, so I won't rush to cause you any trouble."

"Okay, then I'll go to wish you a happy new year in the next two days!"

Lin Quan fiddled with the mud in his hands and looked up at the dog man. Before the other party came out, he said that there was no place he needed to go to pay New Year's greetings.

Jian Xi also looked over, blinked at her, smiled and made a gesture to keep quiet.

"Aunt Ye, it's entirely up to you to decide when to start that matter. I'm not in a hurry."

"Ah, Aunt Ye, do you know the birthday present I gave him that day? I can't say that I was anxious, at most it can be regarded as... alerting the enemy, right?"

Jian Xi said with a smile on his face while talking on the phone. Like everyone else, he had to do something with his hands while talking on the phone, so he couldn't help but poke the clay bowl in front of him where the small green tea was still being shaped.

"..."

After Lin Quan had pulled his dog paws apart several times and seeing that he was still like this, he grabbed some mud and slapped it on his hands and glared at him.

Jian Xi smiled and pulled his hand back, then continued on the phone: "It's not always a bad thing to alert the enemy. At least Aunt Ye, don't you know now?"

"It doesn't matter if they find him. He doesn't have any other use. His only use is that he's still alive. Besides, can't we use this use at any time?"

Little Green Tea frowned. When she saw the other person's hand reaching out again, she ignored the mud bowl and directly held the dog man's hand tightly.

"OK, I still say the same thing, Aunt Ye, you can start whenever you want. I have some other arrangements here and I can keep up with them at any time."

"As long as the organization needs me, I can serve as CEO anytime!"

"Haha, just kidding. I can't handle multiple duties these days. Oh, isn't Gu Yuan still the financial director? I'm even less anxious to go there."

"Aunt Ye still remembers that bet, right?"

"Okay, I'll talk to you in detail when I come back to your house to wish you a happy new year. Bye."

After hanging up the phone, Jian Xi let out a breath, and when he was about to hand the phone to Lin Quan, his expression suddenly became strange.

"What's wrong?" Little Green Tea let go of his hand and asked curiously.

Jian Xi showed her his phone and said, "It seems... Lin Xiao and Nan Xiang are here too."

"..."

Lin Quan clasped his hands together, and the clay bowl he had just shaped was directly beaten back into a chaotic state.
