Zongman: Unknowingly trapped in the hatchet

"Ok."

Mahiru turned around, she obviously didn't suspect that Su Qing would hide something from her.

She didn't even think about asking what Su Qing and the clerk had said at the beginning.

In fact, trust is just like this.

"That's something you would say~" Mahiru smiled mischievously, her tone becoming resentful, "Maybe the clerk will fall in love with you because of what you said?"

"Even if you really like someone, it's just a simple admiration and yearning, which doesn't count as love. Feelings like taking advantage of someone's situation will most likely not have a happy ending."

Even though he was holding Mahiru's hand, it did not prevent Su Qing from letting go first, then flicking Mahiru's fair forehead and then holding her hand again.

"This is your punishment for suddenly saying something strange."

After holding hands again, Su Qing did not forget to explain.

"W-what? That's weird. Girls sometimes fall in love with someone just because of a few simple words." Mahiru continued to mutter with dissatisfaction while pouting, "And, and what if you let go just for a moment and I got blown away?"

Obviously, what made her unhappy was that Su Qing let go of her hand.

"We were so close, I reacted and brought it back to you."

Su Qing smiled disapprovingly.

"If that's the case, you'll have to keep an eye on me all the time, right?"

Mahiru retorted.

"Can you read your mind? Actually, I am keeping an eye on you all the time."

Su Qing's mouth formed an "O" shape, and he seemed a little surprised.

"Y-really?"

"Yes. For example, I know you actually bought some seasoning just now, but you didn't pay for it, and you came to see me jogging, right? And..."

Every time Su Qing said something that Zhenri thought Su Qing didn't know, the blush on her little face grew a little bit bigger.

"Okay, okay. Now that I know what you said is true, isn't that enough?"

Moving his gaze to the other side calmly, Mahiru spoke to Su Qing as if begging for mercy.

"And what else?"

Su Qing seemed to want to say something to Mahiru.

"And... and I believe you can hold me back before I get blown away..."

Reluctantly, Mahiru finally said it.

Hearing this, Su Qing smiled victoriously.

[What's so great about that...Su Qing is such a childish guy]

After seeing this from the corner of his eye, Mahiru snorted inwardly with disdain.

"Since you believe me, can you allow me to let go for a while?"

Knowing that the other party was probably secretly calling him "idiot" in his heart, Su Qing chuckled twice and asked.

"Since you asked, of course I have to allow you. Why didn't you ask me just now?"

He nodded, agreeing to Su Qing's request.

The next moment, the two people's hands were temporarily freed.

Just when Mahiru was wondering what Su Qing was going to do when she let go of her hand, soon something appeared in her hand.

——grindstone.

She looked at it for a long time and finally decided to put it down and not buy the whetstone.

"Where did it come from?"

Mahiru asked subconsciously.

"Of course I bought it legally. It couldn't have been picked up, right?"

Su Qing said helplessly.

Mahiru can be quite confused sometimes.

After realizing that she had asked an obvious question, Mahiru blushed slightly and quickly added.

"I, of course I know. But didn't we agree that this piece is not cost-effective? Should I buy one online?"

"Yes." Su Qing did not deny it. Of course he heard it.

"Then you still..."

"So this is what I planned to give you. It's considered a...gift, right?"

Su Qing himself wasn't quite sure.

No matter from the stories he had read or other things he had heard from others, it seemed that no one had ever given a whetstone as a gift to anyone.

"A gift?" As expected, Mahiru laughed, her expression somewhat serious, "Well... I don't think any girl would be happy to receive a gift like a grindstone."

"Yes, I have."

Su Qing answered without hesitation.

"Who... who?"

Mahiru suddenly became nervous.

She swore she was just trying to be funny.

But what's going on with the other party's fearless look now?

[Could it be...he has given other girls this kind of "gift" before?]

If so, what is their relationship?

"Isn't it you?"

Su Qing smiled and pointed at Mahiru.

"So, it was me?"

At this moment, it’s unclear whether it was relief or something else, but a smile appeared on Mahiru’s face again.

"I haven't said anything yet, how can you be sure I'll be happy?"

Just when Mahiru thought that Su Qing would once again attribute it to [tacit understanding], Su Qing suddenly stared into her eyes and said meaningfully:

"Didn't I tell you? I can tell just by looking into your eyes."

"Hey, I thought it was because of our tacit understanding~"

Mahiru's voice was drawn out.

"Well... we can't rule out that it's because of that."

After thinking for a while, Su Qing said.

"Well...if you think about it carefully, it's actually not worth it. You can buy two other brands at this price."

After turning the whetstone over for a while, Mahiru still seemed to feel some pain on her face.

"I'm sending you there. Why are you fussing so much about it?"

"Your money didn't come from the wind, stupid."

Mahiru said this unhappily. But the curve of her mouth had never dropped since the moment she got the [Whetstone].

"If you don't want it, forget it. I won't send it to you."

Su Qing did not explain to Mahiru that making money was really not difficult for him.

It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that there was a strong wind.

After all, even stock trading requires moving your fingers.

But actually it’s pretty much the same.

"Stupid, stupid. I didn't say no." Mahiru moved the grindstone to the other side like a child, "Forget it this time. But you are not allowed to buy secretly next time."

Mahiru's heart was like a mirror.

what gift?

That was just a lame excuse he made up to get her to accept it.

That's why she joked with Su Qing, saying that no girl would be happy to receive such a gift.

But as Su Qing said, it’s hard for others to say.

There was one person who would be happy about this, and he happened to have one right in front of him.

rather say.

If it wasn't for the fact that Mahiru would be happy, Su Qing wouldn't have given it away.

Also known as.

If it wasn't given by Su Qing, Mahiru wouldn't be happy.

How about it.

Matters of the heart are complicated, aren't they?

"It seems that there are very few female college students who like whetstones." Su Qing suddenly asked.

"If it's rare, isn't that good? 'Rare' is usually not a bad word, just like the giant panda."

Mahiru gave Su Qing a playful smile.

"So, I should be considered a national treasure."

Following Mahiru's logic, Su Qing pinched his chin and said.

"Well, what should I say?"

"It should be considered rare for a man to give a girl a [Whetstone] as a gift, right?"

Su Qing looked at Mahiru with an expression that said "Isn't that so?"

"I don't think it's rare, right?"

After thinking seriously for a moment, Mahiru still smiled mischievously.

“Not really…”

As if she didn't hear the slight disappointment in Su Qing's words, Mahiru just took out an eco-friendly bag from her bag and put the whetstone into it alone.

Finally, after carrying two bags in my right hand, my left hand was free.

then.

The two held hands again.

It was Mahiru who took the initiative to lead the way.

"It's not rare. To me, it's... [unique]~"

As if to prevent her voice from dissipating in the wind, Mahiru's tail sound was drawn out very long.

[You are unique, but you are not rare, idiot]

Even the faintest words will be lost in the wind.

This special feeling will definitely not be missed.

Yes...definitely.
