Shang Xi looked at Lan Wei, who was still talking to her one second and ran out the next second, and was stunned for a moment: "What's wrong?"
She stood up and walked out the door.
Then, she saw two tall men walking towards her.
Gu Wen, and that... Qin Ming.
The two of them were tall, long-legged, and had outstanding temperaments, just like male models. Passers-by were attracted to them and turned their heads frequently.
Lanwei ran up to Qin Ming with red eyes, staring at him with complaints and grievances in his eyes: "It's been a long time since you came to see me."
She looked aggrieved and stamped her feet, but she did not rush to hug the tall male werewolf. They were not partners and physical contact was not appropriate. She was afraid that he would be unhappy.
Qin Ming looked down at her and said seriously: "I heard you found a job, congratulations."
Speaking of this, Lanwei's eyes lit up: "Well, I can make money now. I've made a lot of progress, right? I won't hold you back."
Her last words made Qin Ming frown: "What are you talking about again?"
"I'm not talking nonsense."
Shang Xi listened to the conversation between the two, and what else didn't he understand?
But why did Gu Wen come too?
Gu Wen stared at Shang Xi, breathing in the smell of women in the air. There was no smell of Rong Wen, so they didn't have lunch together?
"Mr. Gu, what are you doing here...?"
"Passing by."
"oh."
Gu Wen took the initiative and asked, "How is business today?"
"not bad."
The two of them were having a dry conversation. Not far away, Lanwei was complaining coquettishly, while Qin Ming was comforting him in a low voice.
Shang Xi himself felt embarrassed by this comparison.
She was about to turn around and go back to work in the store, or politely ask them to come and sit in the store? Just as she was thinking this, Qin Ming walked towards her.
"Hello." Qin Ming nodded towards her: "Thank you, you provided her with a job."
Shang Xi looked at this popular crime-solving expert on the Internet and shook his head: "You're welcome, Lanwei is very capable and helped me a lot."
Qin Ming and Gu Wen stayed briefly and were about to leave.
Lanwei burst into tears, her eyes full of regret, holding the roses and her eyes red, which made me feel pity for her.
"The last time the fallen werewolf appeared, I knew you came to Qingcheng, but you didn't come to me. I was so scared at that time, you know, but now you are leaving again."
Qin Ming saw her crying and felt helpless. He sighed: "Don't cry. I'll come see you next time."
"When is the next time? I miss you, I like you."
Qin Ming pursed his lips and said seriously: "I'm sorry."
Lanwei stopped crying and stared at the tall werewolf's three-dimensional facial features, his eyes full of love and grievance: "Let's go, I know you are very busy."
He is so outstanding, so dazzling, and there are many female humans and werewolves who admire him. She is just one of his rescue targets. He doesn't want to find a partner now, and he doesn't like her either.
Lanwei thought of this and didn't want him to think that he would only cry. He tried hard to resist the idea of letting him leave, and said reluctantly: "Goodbye."
Then, he turned back to the store.
After her back disappeared, Qin Ming looked at the brown-haired werewolf boy who was helping at the door of the store. He looked like he was in his early twenties. He smelled the scent of the werewolf on Lanwei's body.
Thinking this, he turned and left.
At that time, he underestimated this young werewolf.
——
Shang Xi is not very busy today, so he doesn't need to work overtime.
After she and Gu Wen went to take the cub home, after dinner and it was getting dark, she took the storybook and went to the lawn with the werewolves again.
She was holding the book at the stairs and met Gu Wen who was going upstairs. The other person glanced at the book in her hand, paused, and said nothing.
At that moment, she asked out of nowhere: "Want to go and listen together?"
Because she thought that was what Gu Wen said in his eyes.
But she was overthinking it.
Gu Wen refused.
All the excitement in Nanfeng Garden gathered on the lawn.
After the werewolves listened to a story happily, someone suddenly said: "The master's birthday is half a month away. I don't know whether he will go back to the snow mountains or stay in Qingcheng."
"The head of the family's thirtieth birthday is coming soon?"
Shang Xi thought with some surprise that her twenty-sixth birthday was coming in more than half a month.
"The head of the house will definitely go back to the snowy mountains to live there. I heard that he likes the snow mountains very much. It's a pity that the head of the house's grandmother chose him to be the successor wolf."
"Yeah, I've been here in Nanfeng Garden for so long, and I haven't seen the head of the family have any purely human friends."
"He almost grew up in the human world, right? Why does it feel like he hasn't integrated in? He doesn't like human electronic entertainment games and entertainment activities. I just like playing Little Star games and watching TV."
Midori lowered his voice and whispered: "I heard that he was brought to the human world when he was eight years old. He stayed in a human school for several years and did not integrate. He lived alone. Later, the grandmother of the family simply let him go back. I hired a teacher to study at home."
"So we want to go down the mountain. Does the head of the family want to go back to the snow mountain? Then why not find another wolf to inherit? The head of the family has fifty wolves, right?"
"Stupid or not, of course the head of the family is the best. He has completely made himself look like a pure human being. If I deal with those pure humans, in less than a day, I will be exposed as a wolf."
"This kind of pressure makes me uncomfortable just thinking about it. The master of the house must be awesome. He is like a pure human being and has not made any mistakes for so many years. You have been in Nanfeng Garden for a few years. Have you seen his ears and tail?"
"Where is the wolf father and wolf mother of the head of the family?"
"The owner's wolf mother is not in good health, and the wolf father has been staying in the snowy mountains with her."
This was the first time Shang Xi heard these things. He pursed his lips and listened silently.
"Hey, he didn't come to the human world until he was eight years old, so he definitely won't be able to blend in. Look at the cub, he was born in the human world since he was a child, and has a pure human mother to take care of him. He has completely blended in."
Hearing this, Shang Xi breathed a deep sigh of relief.
She was afraid that her son wouldn't fit in and would be as lonely as Gu Wen.
Eight-year-old Gu Wen came to a strange world of humans. In a noisy school, he knew that he was not the same as others.
He has no interest in purely human hobbies and activities. He only finds them noisy. He has to be tight at all times and beware of the risk of exposure.
But in the snowy mountains, he could freely show his ears and tail, or turn into a pure wolf body and run. He didn't like school, and he didn't want to deal with pure humans.
Eight years of experience in the snowy mountains made him like to expose his ears and tail. It was so relaxing. From time to time, he would go to deserted suburbs and deserted parks and expose his ears and tail without any scruples. But once, he was seen by a pure human. The other party hurt him with stones.
It was also that time that he briefly made a friend who was a pure human cub and played with her for ten days.
But then, his only human friend suddenly disappeared. He smelled her scent and turned into a pure wolf body. He wore the bow tie she gave him around his neck and ran around the streets of humans, noisy humans. There are too many people in the world, and the smell is too strong. He didn't find her.
When we finally found her, she was having fun with her new friends.
The smell of her body changed a lot. In a werewolf's nose, the scent of a pure human remains unchanged after the age of eighteen.
Xiao Gu Wen cannot integrate into the human world. He has rarely interacted with humans. He cannot speak and does not understand human thoughts. He is arrogant, withdrawn, awkward, old-fashioned, and does not mean what he says. He often contradicts himself and likes to be alone. .
Just like now, the excitement of the lawn does not belong to him. The room is pitch dark. He lowers his hearing and hears nothing. He sits on the sofa, as if he is out of tune with this world.
The rest of the werewolves were enjoying the novelty gadgets invented by humans. He was the only one who seemed to be a lone wolf who accidentally broke into the human world from the depths of the jungle.
He stood outside the bustling door.
His shyness and loneliness, his wild restlessness, his homesickness, his homelessness.
