Chapter 10 Happiness
"Why didn't that bastard show up today?" Mei Yamada scanned the room suspiciously, and was surprised to find that Zenyuan Shier hadn't come.
Zenyuan Saku raised his head and poured down the bitter soup, reached out to take a candied fruit and put it in his mouth. When he heard Yamada Mei's question, he paused and replied calmly: "Maybe there's something wrong, he doesn't will come."
"Anyway, it can't be something serious." Mei Yamada said unhappily, and then frowned and looked at the empty bowl in front of Zenyuan Saku.Even after drinking the soup inside, the soup remaining at the bottom of the bowl still exudes a strange color, and the bitter taste just hits the bridge of the nose.
"How long will I have to drink it? Who can stand it every day? I've heard that all medicines are [-]% poisonous." Mei Yamada was a little worried.
"...should have to drink for a while." Chanyuan Shuo rolled the candied fruit in his mouth with his tongue, and replied in a warm voice.Only he himself knew that the effect of this medicine was not to cure any disease, but to make his body more comfortable and relieve his pain.What he suffered from was not so much a disease as the extremely poor immunity brought about by his body under the influence of the infinite cycle of mana collapse-repair. The speed is fast, but the recovery is also fast.
In other words, sometimes it is better to find a way to make him sicker if he takes medicine for treatment, so that he will recover faster, but it is better not to let Mei know about this.
"Chanyuan Kangtai contacted you again?" Chanyuan Shuo picked up the chopsticks, picked up a small piece of shaved fish from the plate, and put it in his mouth with boredom.
"Yes, because this year is coming to an end, a new batch of supplies has come down from the master's house, and he wants me to 'help'."
"Substitute or what?"
"At the same time as the next generation, he also wants to resell the new batch of materials, but he must not be near the Chanyuan home, or he will be found after a little investigation." Yamada Mei scooped up a piece of tofu with a spoon and put it in Zenyuan Shuo's Wanzhong, "He wants me to leave here during the Chinese New Year and sell the first batch of supplies first, and give me 30.00% of the profit. I'm still thinking about whether to agree to him."
"what are you worried about?"
"...That is, why did he find me? He can definitely find a confidant of his own to do this. You must know that he and I have only met a few times. Wouldn't it be too risky to entrust it to me?" Mei Yamada asked suspiciously.
"Because you have a clue in his hands." Chanyuan Shuo couldn't help feeling a little funny when he thought of the day's unintentional scheming.
"Handle? Ah, it's not that I 'controlled' you, right?" Mei Yamada turned pale with shock, and couldn't help but look nervously at Zenyuan Saku, "Master, I..."
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, it's okay." Zenyuan Shuo smiled slightly, "He didn't look for anyone else but you, which means that he actually wants to monopolize this benefit."
A question mark appeared above Mei Yamada's head.
"You're right. Kang Tai of the Chanyuan must have his own cronies, but on the one hand, the matter of reselling supplies has a lot to do with it. If it gets out, the consequences will be unimaginable. Who knows if there will be people with two hearts under him? ? On the other hand, these cronies are not in vain, that is to say, Chanyuan Kangtai can eat meat, but they must also drink soup. Chanyuan Kangtai is willing to give you 30.00% of the benefits, which means that if he lets 'his own people' If he does this, he will definitely not get as much profit as 70.00%."
"Plus you have something in his hands. Before you fall out, no matter how small the benefits he gives you, you can only swallow your anger. But judging from the current 30.00%, he seems to want to reach a long-term relationship with you Partnership."
"So that's the case." Mei Yamada thought thoughtfully, "Then I'll answer him later."
"No hurry, it's okay to let him dry." Chanyuan Shuo blew on the still hot tofu, "When you talk to Chanyuan Kangtai, remember to tell him not to expose you to anyone other than him, whether he is It doesn’t matter whether you want to keep the evidence or not. It’s best that only the two of you know about your cooperation with him, otherwise it will be very troublesome to clean up when he is useless in the future.”
"Okay, master." Yamada Mei folded her hands in front of her body, lowered her head respectfully, but there was a crazy smile on her face, "Everything is your wish."
Zenyuan Shukua sighed slightly when he saw her like this, he finally realized what changed in Mei Yamada.Ever since he was Yuan Manshuo, some fanatics would gather around him inexplicably, almost treating him as an omnipotent god.
It would be fine if he is really a god, but he is just an ordinary person with some strength, and it is impossible for him not to make any mistakes.In contrast, he hopes that they can make their own decisions at critical moments, even if they find out that doing so is wrong, it doesn't matter, isn't there still something he can cover?
If it is said that conjurers are inevitably affected because their source of power is negative emotions, they will easily go to extremes.So why is May?Chanyuan Shuo felt a little headache.
Is it because I have been in the oppressive place of the Chanyuan home all the year round, so once I break her shackles, it will be out of control?Or is Yamada Mei herself an excellent lunatic hidden among ordinary people?
"You...forget it".Zenyuan Saku looked at Mei Yamada's eyes looking at her with unclear eyes, and deeply reflected on whether he should not have given her so many tasks. If he could find out Mei's abnormality earlier, could he have corrected it earlier.Chanyuan Shuo now thinks of those subordinates who he said in his previous life, from which they could analyze [-] meanings, shouting "dedicate everything for the Patriarch" and stirring up wind and rain everywhere, always have to clean up the mess for them by themselves.Thinking that Mei might become like that in the future, Chanyuan Shuo felt tired after a long absence.
"Master? Are you all right?"
"Ah, it's okay." Zenyuan Shuo came back to his senses, and looked at Yamada Mei with a hidden look of hatred for iron and steel, "Zenyuan Kota will do as we said. Next time if there is such a thing If so, I want to listen to your own thoughts first, you will always be alone, and I can't be by your side all the time, you should also try to exercise yourself."
Yamada Mei's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Anyone could hear the joy in her voice, "Okay! Master! I will definitely do it beautifully!"
Chanyuan Shuo's eyes flickered for a moment, so let's do it bit by bit first, you won't be allowed to be alone for the time being, let's see what needs to be broken first, and you won't get sick if you put it under your nose Is it serious?
"Ah, but if that's the case, we won't be able to celebrate the New Year with the young master." Yamada Mei suddenly thought of this, and her originally happy expression suddenly became a little dull. Look, the ceremony will be over long ago when I come back."
"Then change it up now and let me appreciate it." Zenyuan Shukuo winked at Mei Yamada, "As for New Year's Eve, there will be more days to come."
Yamada Mei's heart was beating fast, she immediately got up from the ground, hurriedly rushed to the table to pick up her kimono, "I...I'll change it now! Master, please wait for me a moment! It will be ready soon !"
Yamada Mei ran to the inner room and quickly changed into the kimono. She carefully smoothed out every wrinkle on the clothes with her hands, her fingers lingering on the patterns, but she still dared not raise her head. "No matter how bad it is, it can't be worse than before."Yamada Mei thought so in her heart.
It's not that she hasn't participated in the festival, nor has she worn a new kimono, she just remembered that when she was still under Yuya Zenyuan, she would always throw a new dress to her like alms, and then asked her to dress up and accompany the Zenyuan Tong went to the festival to play, in order not to lose their face.The clothes are not ugly, and the fireworks at the New Year's Eve are not unattractive, but she just can't be happy, as if all the happy memories are covered with a layer of dust.
So what now?How would I see myself?
Ume Yamada was terrified, she clenched her trembling hands into fists, and finally, mustering up her courage, she slowly raised her head to see herself in the mirror.
is this me?The person in the mirror is familiar yet unfamiliar, what is familiar is his own face, but what is strange is the expression on his face.What was your previous self like?Obviously time has passed not long ago, but she can't remember clearly, is she gentle, elegant, and obedient?Timid, sad, funny?But now the self in the mirror is like a sunflower facing the sun, its eyes seem to be full of light and hope, although there are still some scratches from the past in the brows and eyes, but there is a satisfied smile.
She couldn't help but stretched out her hand to touch her face, and looked at herself in the mirror and did the same. The joy in her heart drove the muscles on her face, making her want to shed tears involuntarily.
"…Ok?"
"Okay!" Mei Yamada turned around abruptly and opened the door, and saw Zenyuan Saku who was sitting in front of the table facing her.Even though she was still a child, she seemed to see the sun hanging high in the sky.
No, it's not the sun. The sun will only melt itself. Sure enough...is it the gentle moon?
"It's beautiful. Rather, it's as beautiful as I thought." Chanyuan Saku looked at Mei Yamada, whose chest was rising and falling, and smiled encouragingly.
Yamada Mei slowly walked to Zenyuan Saku and knelt down, saluted with a standard posture, and asked with a choked voice, "I will be useful, right?"
"Yes, May is very powerful."
"I won't be abandoned again, will I?"
"Yes, no more."
"I...will have a bright future, right?" Mei Yamada trembled, all the unbearable past was playing back in her mind like a movie, because she was an ordinary person, so no one would pay attention to her pain; because I am an ordinary person, so I am forced to do things I don't want to do; because I am an ordinary person, I will never be able to see the sun in this big house.But now, her tears fell drop by drop on the ground, blooming bitter and sweet flowers.
Chanyuan Shuo just smiled, "Yes, Mei will be happy."
"Master Saku, in the future... please don't use me with consideration." Mei Yamada raised her face, the makeup on her face was already a bit smudged, and she looked a little funny, but she just stared at Zenyuan Saku stubbornly, wanting to get a Answer.
At that moment, Chanyuan Shuo suddenly didn't want to think about correcting her anymore.He asked himself in his heart, is this the path Yamada Mei chose?Is this what she really wants?Is she...happy now?The answer is all "yes".Then, let her continue to be happy like this.
"This is the second time, and I hope it will be the last. Welcome, May."
Alas, it seems that I will always be a hard worker.Chanyuan Shuo complained in his heart and sighed, but a small smile appeared on his face.
