My love options are a bit difficult

Chapter 478 The grain depot will eventually run out one day

Natsume Feng pinched the corners of his sore eyes, and after being separated from the world of books, he only felt mentally exhausted for a while.

Tucking the footer of the pages of "Biography of Xilu" that he had read most of in his hand, he closed the book and put it by his hand, and exhaled slightly the breath in his mouth.

This book came from Dazheng Shinichiro. At that time, he only saw the oriental ancient books and Lie Xinxi brought them back, but in fact he just had the mentality of flipping through them.

But the self-cultivation planned a while ago is not just talk.

It is a terrible thing that a person's character does not match his strength.

Xia Mufeng doesn't intend to restrain himself with self-cultivation, but only wants to be able to master the character of strength in the body.

There is poetry and calligraphy in the abdomen, which is a sign of cultivation.

So it's still necessary.

Whether it is the first thought of self-cultivation of the poor or the rich, there is no more suitable choice than reading.

Of course, reading should also be divided into books, the kind that the old man pushes the cart does not count.

Books that have been tested and regarded as classics by the world are undoubtedly more suitable to read - Teacher Bai Jie's classics are not included in this list.

After all, it has been settled down through time and the tests of the world. Since it has been regarded as a classic by countless people, it is naturally superior.

Xia Mufeng didn't hesitate to go to the bookstore to buy books, but repeatedly looked at the "Biography and Xilu" that was handed over from Mr. Taisho.

The main reason is that the culture of my hometown is already an unmatched foundation in the world, so I don't need to take a big step to read books from other countries, and Wang Yangming's thinking is also in line with Natsume Feng's way of life.

Only follow the heart but not follow the heart, control the heart but not bind it.

I take the scale in my heart and act according to my heart within the scale.

This is just his self-understanding.

I have read it almost three times, and it can be said that I have been reading this book for more than half a month, but many places still feel obscure.

Just the classical Chinese between the lines is enough to make people dizzy, not to mention there are more philosophical aphorisms, those sentences have different meanings every time they are read, there are too many food for thought .

As for why Natsume Kaede didn't read the annotated version - if you want to really think about it, you have to read the original version.

Otherwise, what's the difference between you going to work in the field and finishing it with a machine, and you just need to carry it on the car?
Thinking is always what humans should do.

For example: "It is intentional to seek tranquility, so the more unsettled it is."

If we understand it according to the meaning of ordinary people, it is to seek tranquility intentionally, which often leads to tranquility, and if we force everything, we often get no good results.

But if he didn't read the annotations but read it by himself, Xia Mufeng couldn't help but think of other things.

So if I force them, will I get bad results in the end?
It was like being cut off by a knife in the game the night before time travel.

In a trance, he seemed to see Brother Cheng waving to him in the sky, smiling and trying to lead him to the sky to be happy.

This is fake.

But Natsume Feng couldn't help being taken aback, and at the same time began to think of a way.

The only way is to confess and solve it. I tried this last time, but it didn't seem to be successful.

No, it worked, but not entirely.

After so many days of repeated thinking, he can basically conclude that he succeeded that day, but he was not completely successful.

Because the game's panel will not be faked, what I said has not been swallowed.

Moreover, Du Yuehua's demeanor at that time was obviously very abnormal. He was listening carefully just a second ago, but when he said it, he immediately got a call and ran out. wrong.

Is this normal?

Absolutely not normal.

Xia Mufeng is not an emotional idiot, nor is he so stupid that he can't guess people's minds. Just the girl's abnormal behavior at that moment has already made him understand that something is wrong.

It's even possible that Yuehua already knew about it.

But another question came out, why did she know?

I just didn't come back for one night and had no contact, and then she figured it out with her fingers?

Xia Mufeng is sure that Du Yuehua is not proficient in divination.

Could it be that the smell of perfume and long hair are left behind by the dog blood on his body?
impossible.

He also deliberately went home, changed his clothes and took a shower.

What is the reason for that?
Natsume Feng couldn't figure it out.

But what is certain is that the girl definitely noticed something, otherwise she wouldn't have acted so obviously at the beginning.

Like...don't want to hear it, and then...run away.

Just escape.

In the past half a month, due to the start of school, Natsume Feng has only seen each other twice, just eating out and then taking a walk, and the girl still has a kind of evasion, sometimes sneaking into his eyes There is also a complicated meaning, a kind of inexplicable hesitation and struggle.

This gaze was naturally observed secretly by Natsume Feng.

So I became more convinced of my conjecture.

After so many days, he has finally made a decision in his heart, no matter what the result is, he must speak it out in person. Although there is some suspicion and result of hurting her, there is no better way than this.

No matter how bad the result would be, he would go to heaven and follow Brother Cheng's footsteps.

It was after making this decision that Natsume Feng felt a little more relaxed.

People are always full of fear about the unknown result, but they will relax after thinking of the worst.

The past half month can be said to be the most idle time for him, and of course it is not completely idle - at least he is reading every day.

Since the farewell to Mt. Fuji, even Asaka Fukai, who used to pester her from time to time, rarely asked him to do anything willful.

This can't help but make Natsume Feng feel at ease after being taken away from the storage.

But Fukai Asaka naturally couldn't forget him.

I just made a phone call to say that she will be very busy recently, so I may not be able to meet with myself during this time, but it is better to let myself store food and wait for her to come and pick it up at any time.

Such words could not help but make Natsume Feng slightly darken.

Is the co-author using yourself as a grain bank?
Can't get in?

Chilling!
But Natsume Feng didn't say much, although what the other party said was very vague, it also showed that he had something to do with Du Yueyongsuke.

Although the last time I visited Duyue's house and took a bath with my prospective father-in-law, I mentioned what Fukai Asaka said back then, but now it seems that I really have something serious to talk about, and the tone seems to be quite It's not easy.

Thinking about it, the two of them are not simple people, sitting so high under their buttocks, it is probably not a simple chatter, maybe something is going to happen - but it should have nothing to do with me.

The helm of a consortium and the minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, what bad intentions can they have when they unite?

Natsume Feng remembered that when he knew Fukai Asaka's incredible ambition and that the white-eyed wolf he had cultivated was abolished, he also thought of the troubles Du Yuehua said a while ago that Du Yue Ryusuke had encountered, and had a rough guess in his heart.

It's just that this kind of thing has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't have the heart to put it on it, let alone the capital and connections.

People have self-knowledge.

Looking at the slightly yellowed front page of the book, Xia Mufeng gradually lost his mind, until a familiar reminder sounded in his ear, and then he recovered from the trance state.

"Mr. Natsume, your coffee."

Tomoko Irimoto carefully picked up the coffee on the tray in his hand, gently placed it in front of Natsume Kaede and reminded him softly.

Xia Mufeng leaned to the side, afraid of affecting her movements, and said at the same time: "Thank you very much."

"You're welcome."

Irimoto Tomoko said something with a smile, looking at him with a smile in his eyes.

Because of Natsume Kaede's frequent visits, and the fact that he always has a human touch that is different from ordinary people, Tomoko Irimoto unconsciously leans in to serve every time.

If it was an ordinary customer, it would probably be a slight nod, or a thank you at most, and there would be absolutely no unnecessary gestures, let alone being polite and humane like the man in front of him.

And in this era of looking at faces, who wouldn't want to serve handsome guys?
From Natsume Kaede's first day here, Irimoto Tomoko found this quiet and polite man.

The man came with a book, and often sat all afternoon.

It's incredible.

If a customer comes to the coffee shop to look at the computer or mobile phone, let alone one afternoon, it is not surprising.

It is really rare for someone to be able to read a physical book and sit for an afternoon.

Unless those people are for exams or study, it is difficult to calm down and read books based on interest alone.

This is why Tomoko Irimoto admired this guest very much.

Being handsome is only one aspect of it, and it cannot be the main reason. After all, there are many handsome men and women in Tokyo, and you can carry a basket if you go out for a stroll.

"Why is Miss Irimoto staring at me? Is there something on my face?"

Xia Mufeng felt the eyes watching him from the side, turned his head and found that the other party was standing there, he couldn't help touching his face and asked with a smile.

"Ah, no, it's because you are so handsome, so I can't help but take a second look." Tomoko Irimoto was brought back to his senses by his voice, and he didn't panic when someone exposed him, but just smiled the same said flatteringly.

It's a compliment, but it's also sincere.

Xia Mufeng gradually restrained the smile on his face when he heard the words, looked at her for a while and said solemnly: "If you say it like this, then I have to look at Miss Iben more."

"Mr. Natsume is really good at talking."

Tomoko Irimoto was stunned for a moment, and even after reacting, he couldn't help covering his mouth and snickering.

"This is the charm of language, isn't it?" Natsume Feng chuckled, but he was also willing to joke with the other party.

It is inevitable to have some adjustments in a boring life. Since he exists in society, he naturally needs to communicate with others. He did not look down on the other party because he is a waiter in a coffee shop. Instead, he occasionally joked with others happily.

"Well, the charm of language."

Tomoko Irimoto smiled and nodded.

Sometimes all it takes is a little banter to keep the day entertaining.

Just when Tomoko Irimoto was slightly lost in thought, Natsume Kaede glanced at the flashing phone screen at hand.

Looking at the message sent by the other party on the screen, I silently calculated the time in my heart and pondered for a while.

"Miss Irimoto, please have another cup of Blue Mountain Coffee."

Tomoko Irimoto recovered from his distraction. Listening to his words, he thought he was going to refill his cup again. He glanced at the coffee he had just filled, and asked in surprise, "Are you planning to finish it in one gulp?"

If this sentence is purely about the relationship between the guest and the waiter, it is definitely a bit too much, but they can also make this kind of joke.

Natsume Feng shook his head, thought for a while and replied: "No, a friend is coming over, so I plan to order another cup. If there are desserts, can you recommend two?"

Seeing what he said, Tomoko Irimoto realized that he was not joking, and immediately resumed his duties, took out the order machine in his pocket, and reminded softly: "Of course, the tiramisu and lava cakes in the store are good. You can try it if you don’t mind.”

"Then let's do both."

Natsume Feng didn't think too much about it, it was just a formality, at least something had to be ordered.

But these two desserts are really his favorite.

"Okay, I'll bill you now."

Tomoko Irimoto tapped the billing machine a few times, and at the same time asked naturally: "By the way, Mr. Natsume is waiting for a girlfriend?"

Xia Mufeng was speechless for a moment, a little bit emotional that this person is good for chatting, but still replied with a smile: "It's just a friend, not a girlfriend."

Tomoko Irimoto tore off the receipt printed by the opener in his hand, and while offering it with both hands, he asked in surprise, "You don't have a girlfriend, do you?"

After taking the receipt handed over by the other party, he took out the wallet from his pocket at the same time, pulled out a banknote and handed it over.

Put the change into the wallet after giving the change.

Xia Mufeng was a little dumbfounded by her questioning, he didn't know why the other party was so obsessed with this question, but he didn't feel annoyed in his heart, but replied truthfully: "I have a girlfriend."

"Let me just say, how could a man as handsome as Mr. Natsume not have a girlfriend, and be so well-bred." Tomoko Irimoto

"Am I well-bred?"

When Xia Mufeng heard the other party say this word, he always felt that it was not appropriate to apply it to himself.

It's like saying that the pig butcher is very bookish.

Although it can't be seen from the outside when the pig is not killed.

"Of course, to be honest, you are already handsome, but you look even more handsome when you read." Tomoko Irimoto's compliment did not show any trace, but it was indeed similar to what he thought,

"Miss Iriben compliments me so much that I didn't make a draft. Do you want me to become a regular customer and spend more money?"

Natsume Feng couldn't help joking.

"Of course this is one of the reasons, but it's definitely not the main reason. Your personal charm is too great."

The waitress Tomoko Irimoto couldn't help not objecting, but continued to speak in a serious manner.

"Okay, please stop talking, I promise to come here often."

"It's not enough if you just come here, you may have something more."

"Your words are too straightforward, but I decided to accept your suggestion."

"Then I will prepare for you first."

"It's troublesome."

"You're welcome."

Irimoto Tomoko showed a sincere smile on his face, put his hands on the plate and stepped back to say goodbye.

Seeing the waitress calmly walking towards the front desk, Xia Mufeng also looked at the time on the phone, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

"It's been 5 minutes beyond the agreed time, does she care so much about the time now?"
