Chapter 22

However, before Lu Ze'an stayed at Gu's house until night, his Omega father came and arrested him.When Ji Mu saw Lu Ze'an's father Xia Chen for the first time, he thought he had the same temper as Lu Ze'an, but unexpectedly he was a cold iceberg beauty.Even though he was already in his 40s, Xia Chen looked only in his thirties.

It should be properly maintained, and Xia Chen's behavior is also very elegant. He is wearing plain work clothes, and he has an indifferent expression the whole time.As if he was used to his son's naughtiness, Xia Chen was completely indifferent to Lu Ze'an's crying and pretending to be pitiful.

He took Lu Ze'an away like a chicken, and Ji Mu, who was left behind, swallowed his saliva, thinking: As expected of the Omega of General Lu's family, everyone feels that the value of force is not low.

…………

Now, apart from Aunt Li who came to clean regularly and the gardener who pruned the leaves in the garden, only Ji Mu was at home in the whole Gu family.Today is Lu Qiuyuan's work day, and Gu Yuanchen's class is full.

Ji Mu finally had a day without class, which happened to be used to prepare dinner.

He is no stranger to kitchen work. When he was at Ji's house, in order to live a more comfortable life, he often went to help in the kitchen.And Ji's cooking servants have always taken good care of Ji Mu, and are willing to bring Ji Mu with them for everything.Under the influence of his ears and eyes, Ji Mu's culinary skills have also improved.

Occasionally, when the servant is not feeling well, Ji Mu will help her in the kitchen.

After that, he will eat in the back kitchen with his servants, and when he is lucky, he can eat well.

The dining table in the front hall is a place that Ji Mu can never sit on. It belongs to Ji Mu, not to him, an illegitimate son living in Ji's family like a beggar.

Thinking of this, Ji Mu smiled slightly as he looked at the boiling water and white mist in the pot.

Under the warm lights, the Gu family was like a shelter from the wind.

It tastes like home.

Seafood chowder is cooked in the pot. The spicy sauce covers the faint smell of the sea in the soup. The newly added scallions and garlic cloves will undoubtedly sublimate its taste.On the dining table outside, there were already many plates full of vegetables.

All of them are Gu Yuanchen and Lu Qiuyuan's favorite dishes, and he humbly asked Lu Ze'an for advice on these that day.

Ji Mu felt that he had no special skills, and could only show the sincerity of this table to repay the Gu family for taking care of him these days.It's a pity that Mrs. Zhang is not here today, otherwise we can try his craft together.

When Ji Mu brought the seafood pot to the table, Gu Yuanchen came back.He arrived home earlier than Lu Qiuyuan, and he smelled the aroma of seafood pot as soon as he entered the door.

"Sister-in-law Zhang?" Gu Yuanchen remembered that Mrs. Zhang was not very good at cooking seafood.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he got closer, all he saw was the curtain of seasons.

Ji Mu was in a hurry to untie the belt of his apron. When he saw Gu Yuanchen, he quickly squeezed the apron into his hands: "Sister-in-law Zhang is on leave today, so I made some dishes. Senior, do you want to try it?" After a long while, he Putting down the apron to set the table and chopsticks, the tip of the ear is red, and the tone of the speech is also gentle, "Uncle Lu just sent me a message, saying that he will be late, let us eat first. I have already left a copy for Uncle Lu In the kitchen."

Ji Mu smiled shyly and said, "Senior, go wash your hands and eat."

This looks like a newlywed wife.

Gu Yuanchen looked around and did not see Mrs. Zhang. Facing a table full of dishes, he suddenly felt uncomfortable: "If she asks for leave, we can just go out and eat something. We don't need to do this next time."

In Gu's house, Ji Mu is regarded as a guest, and Gu Yuanchen feels that he is actually quite sorry to ask the guests to cook.But he can't speak, in Ji Mu's ears, what he said just now turned into unintentional rebuke.

did extra stuff...

"I'll move back to the dormitory tomorrow, just this one time." Ji Mu hesitated and didn't know what to do, thinking that Gu Yuanchen didn't like it, so he had to show weakness, "Senior, you can try it... I think it might be okay? "

Seeing that Gu Yuanchen didn't take his seat for a long time, Ji Mu also panicked, thinking that Gu Yuanchen really didn't want to eat the dinner he made: "There's still Zhangsao's lo mei in the refrigerator, how about I use that to serve you noodles?"

"Need not."

Ji Mu's face was white and red, and he nodded: "Sorry, I told Mrs. Zhang not to say hello to you."

He stood there, waiting for Gu Yuanchen's next sentence of criticism, but he didn't hear it for a long time. He only heard Gu Yuanchen say: "Ji Mu, that's not what I meant."

Gu Yuanchen came over, sat down, and picked up the chopsticks: "Thank you for the dinner, but you are a guest after all, so doing this is too much trouble for you."

"No trouble!" Ji Mu turned from sadness to joy, stuttering, "I, I like cooking."

It was the first time he cooked a large table of food for someone he liked, naturally he was afraid that Gu Yuanchen would frown after eating it.Therefore, Ji Mu's hand for serving Gu Yuanchen's soup trembled a little, but it was very small. If you didn't look carefully, you probably wouldn't be able to notice his nervousness.

However, Gu Yuanchen is the most careful in this aspect.

He also knew that what he said just now was wrong, and it happened that he had agreed to give Ji Mu a year, so he didn't refuse the soup Ji Mu handed over, but he didn't expect it to be surprisingly delicious. After that, every dish was delicious. He hit Gu Yuanchen's preferences impartially.

"Senior, is it delicious?"

"Not bad." Gu Yuanchen took the initiative to pick up a chopstick dish, "Have you learned it?"

"I studied with my aunt at home for a while, but compared to that aunt, I didn't do very well." Ji Mu said modestly.

"No, it's fine."

Maybe it's because today's full class made Gu Yuanchen a little tired. It happened that he didn't eat anything at noon, so he dropped his chopsticks more often.

Ji Mu saw it in his eyes and was happy in his heart.But he didn't dare to say it directly, so he could only quietly lick the corners of his mouth and pick up the rice, feeling that everything he ate was sweet.

"Senior, try this."

"Senior, this is delicious too."

"Senior, this shrimp is very tender."

Gu Yuanchen said: "I can eat by myself."

"Okay, senior..."

Ji Mu restrained himself for a few minutes, then bravely went over to pick up some food, but Gu Yuanchen did not refuse.

After a meal, Gu Yuanchen actually ate a lot.Fortunately, Ji Mu saved all of Lu Qiuyuan's portions in advance and put them in the kitchen, otherwise Gu Yuanchen's way of eating would not have much left.

Ji Mu got up to collect the dishes, but Gu Yuanchen stopped him: "Leave it alone, Mrs. Zhang will come to collect it tomorrow."

"Sister-in-law Zhang asked for leave because she seems to be feeling unwell. I'll wash all of these today." Ji Mu's tidying up was also very skillful, which surprised Gu Yuanchen.He is indeed different from those rich young masters that Gu Yuanchen knew, there are always some inexplicable shining points in his body, which is closer to life.

But this does not allow Gu Yuanchen to admit that he has begun to be attracted by Ji Mu.

He stepped forward to help tidy up, and Ji Mu hurriedly said, "Senior, no need..."

"This is my home, there's no reason to ask guests to clean up the dishes." Gu Yuanchen rolled up his sleeves, and there was no loose flesh on his strong arms.He packed up the dishes and went to the kitchen one step ahead of Ji Mu, and washed them in two or three strokes.

Ji Mu was slightly taken aback, and sighed from the bottom of his heart: "Senior is good at washing dishes."

Gu Yuanchen wiped the dishes with a dry towel without raising his head: "I went to work in a restaurant before, washing dishes in the back kitchen."

"work to earn a living?"

"When I first entered college, I wanted to come to country H to find you, but I didn't want to spend my family's money, so I went to work. I was not used to it at first, and I broke plates a few times, and my boss deducted my wages." He wiped the plate. Putting it down, he turned and looked at Ji Mu, "However, in the end, all my efforts were wasted."

Ji Mu stood in place, to be precise, his feet seemed to be nailed in place.

Gu Yuanchen saw his loss and realized his gaffe: "I just said it when I thought about it, I didn't mean to embarrass you."

It just came out of the mouth.

"Just pretend I didn't tell you about it."

Gu Yuanchen dried his hands, and when he passed by Ji Mu, he heard him reply in a low voice: "I'm sorry."

That night, Ji Mu didn't sleep well.

He curled up in the quilt, recalling Gu Yuanchen's words over and over again.He thought, if that email hadn't been sent back then, what kind of way would they get along now?

The more he thought about it, the more regret and sadness filled his lonely heart.Until the last moment, a string in his brain tightened, waking him up painfully.

If Gu Yuanchen really came back then, then Gu Yuanchen's real fiancé, Ji Mu, might not have done such a stupid thing when he saw such an excellent partner.From then on, Gu Yuanchen and Ji Mu were happy and happy, so there would be no such thing as Ji Mu, and nothing would happen. He might never have the chance to come to Gu Yuanchen's side.

Unexpectedly, an email that drove him into a desperate situation was also an opportunity to save him.

The next day, with the help of Gu's driver, Ji Mu went back to school early.

During Ji Mu's absence, Chen Ye kept using Ji Mu's key to borrow his bathroom, and helped Ji Mu clean it by the way.So when Ji Mu stepped into the dormitory, he found that the room was fairly clean, and there was no dust on the table.

"Why are you still wearing such a thin coat?" Chen Ye took out his mobile phone to check today's temperature, and clicked twice.

Ji Mu is going to buy some winter clothes: "Is there a place to buy clothes near here?"

Chen Ye has long been familiar with the school area: "Yes, there are, but they are all cheap clothes without brands, do you mind?"

"I don't mind, I don't need to wear expensive clothes." It should be said that Ji Mu has no requirements for clothes, as long as they are not uncomfortable to wear.

Therefore, Chen Ye took Ji Mu to the "garbage street" outside the school.In addition to the crowded snack bars on this street, there are also some humble clothing shops.Chen Ye was not in a hurry to go back to the dormitory, so he dragged Ji Mu to buy some snacks, and chatted while eating.Then, thinking of something, he took out two coupons from his pocket and gave them to Ji Mu.

"At the end of the month, the School of Art will hold a cultural festival. I got you two admission tickets. There is a small theater over there. You can use this ticket to watch the movie in the afternoon or evening for free. You can choose one of the two." Chen Ye said. He bumped Ji Mu's arm with his elbow, "Go and invite Senior Gu."

Ji Mu opened his mouth, pinching the two coupons: "He may not go, it will be a waste if you give it to me..."

"If you don't invite him, how do you know he won't go?" Chen Ye said bitterly, "You are usually too dull, if you don't create opportunities for yourself, how can Senior Gu notice you?"

"..." Ji Mu still didn't tell Chen Ye that he had been living in Gu's house before.

"Ji Mu, why don't you try it? I heard that the cultural festival of the Academy of Art is quite good, especially their art exhibition. They all say that the exhibits are art treasures! If I don't have friends I know, I still can't get the admission ticket Woolen cloth."

"Then do you have it yourself?"

"Yes, I ordered one for Lin Xu too." Chen Ye's ability to make friends is pretty good.

The Art Department of University C is famous for its unconstrained style, and the annual cultural festival is very interesting.However, in order to avoid crowds and viewers unintentionally destroying the works, coupons were issued and opened.For this reason, coupons are limited each year.

Ji Mu was persuaded by Chen Ye, and put the admission ticket in his pocket: "Thank you, Chen Ye."

Afterwards, they went to the clothing store together to pick out a few plain-colored winter clothes, and Ji Mu even bargained the price when paying.

Seeing his proficiency in bargaining, Chen Ye wondered again and again, he had no idea whether Ji Mu's family was a good one, why did he feel that he was poorer than himself... But last time he invited the classmate who helped carry the roses to dinner Although Ji Mu didn't go there in person, he gave Chen Ye a lot of money.

Coupled with the fact that Ji Mu said that he was staying at a relative's house these days, and that he still had a private car to pick him up [-]/[-], this made Chen Ye even more puzzled.

Just as he was wondering, he heard Ji Mu say, "I'll go to the front to get some money, just wait for me."

"Now you can pay with your mobile phone, and you can also swipe your card. How do you withdraw cash every month?" Chen Ye took the initiative to help Ji Mu get the shopping bag, and joked with him, "Ji Mu, are you a primitive man haha."

"I'm more used to using cash." Ji Mu didn't say much, and ran straight to the ATM in front.He didn't take a lot, he just took a month's living expenses, which seemed to be no more than two thousand at most.But in fact, Ji Mu doesn't need so much. He usually saves, except for occasional other uses. He can spend [-] a month to survive, and sometimes even less.

However, the details of Ji Mu's spending are all remotely monitored by Ji's family, probably his father Ji Feng never really trusted him.

For this reason, Ji Mu had to use this method if he wanted to save some money for himself. He tried to withdraw a sum of money by withdrawing cash every month, just in case he needed it.The reason he reported the two thousand to Ji's family was food expenses.
