Chapter 222 Her face suddenly changed
The proprietress was smiling throughout the entire picking process and was in a very good mood.
After Chen Yi paid the bill readily, he walked towards the store entrance, but after taking just two steps, he suddenly stopped.
He turned around, pretending to be embarrassed, and hesitated for a moment.
The lady boss looked puzzled. "Handsome boss, do you need to add some materials or is there something you don't understand?"
"Oh, actually you don't need to be so nervous. The temple doesn't have such strict requirements for pilgrims. Just follow the instructions of the abbot and don't disturb them at will. If you are sincere, your wish will come true."
Chen Yi nodded slightly, then looked at the proprietress with an embarrassed expression.
The proprietress felt somewhat embarrassed to be stared at by such a handsome man like Chen Yi, but she also had some doubts in her heart.
But she made a big deal today, and her income for one day is half of what she earned last month. She feels happy just thinking about it.
"Just tell me what's going on. I can tell you anything I know." The proprietress said, sounding a little cheerful.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Chen Yi put down the incense materials in his hand, took out a positioning map and unfolded it to show the proprietress.
"It's like this. I want to know about these two circled places. Do you know their specific locations or some information about the surrounding areas? We plan to go to these two places after burning incense."
The proprietress glanced at the circled location on the location map in Chen Yi's hand, and her smiling face suddenly changed.
Chu Xing observed the actions of Chen Yi and the proprietress in the incense shop through the car window and found that after Chen Yi spread out the map, the proprietress's expression changed instantly.
His heart really skipped a beat.
There is something wrong with this incense shop. Do you know that there are special situations wherever we go?
"Be alert. If you are hungry, eat some dry food first. We will eat after we find a place." Chu Xing said.
The accompanying bodyguards all wore invisible headsets. He seemed to be talking to Lao Yang, but in fact he was also reminding the other bodyguards sitting in the car behind.
"Okay, Mr. Chu." Lao Yang replied.
The bodyguard behind also replied: "We got it."
The master looked at the incense shop and said, "Boss Chu, will Special Assistant Chen be unable to get away? How about I go down and take a look? I'm ugly, so I'm not afraid that the boss lady will be tempted."
Chu Xing couldn't help but sneer, "No need, Chen Yi is just using his beauty to lure men. If you go down, it will ruin his plan."
"Okay." Lao Yang said, with a hint of frustration in his tone.
Chu Xing couldn't help laughing, "I mean, the boss lady is so tough, if she sees a man as manly as you and gets tempted, wouldn't that be even more troublesome."
One of the bodyguards in the car behind couldn't help laughing after hearing what Chu Xing said.
Old Yang imitated the scheming girl Xu Feifei's coquettish voice and cursed: "Who is laughing secretly? It's annoying."
After he did this, everyone started laughing, and the atmosphere in the car became much more relaxed than the weird and depressing one just now.
When I first woke up and heard Xu Feifei's accent, I got goose bumps all over my body. In the past, I had to endure it in order to find out the truth about my grandfather.
But now, apart from rejection, the only thing left of love is disgust.
Chu Xing didn't know that while they were rushing on the way here, Ru Meng and Xu Feifei had a fight in front of the bakery on the corner where their love sprouted.
If he knew that Rumeng was hit on the waist by Xu Feifei from behind, he would be heartbroken and worried.
Ru Meng didn't want Chu Xing to know.
Yan Feng and Song Yang would not tell her this at this critical moment.
Chu Xing felt that he owed Ru Meng too much. In the three years of marriage, he had not spent a single day with her properly, and left her to endure his neglect and Liao Bihua's bullying alone.
Thinking that Rumeng was currently having dinner with Cheng Ning to discuss cooperation, his mood improved.
Chu Xing patted his head lightly. He had just told everyone to wake up, but his mind was wandering.
He immediately turned his head and looked out the car window.
At this time, Chen Yi was still racking his brains to communicate with the proprietress of the incense shop.
He observed carefully, trying to figure out every change in the proprietress's expression. He saw that her bright smile just now turned dark and colorless in an instant, and he secretly sweated in his heart.
He pretended to be a clueless newbie, stared at the proprietress with deep eyes, and said self-deprecatingly: "You see, I am such a troublesome customer."
"I opened a shop after graduation. I was usually busy with the shop business and rarely went out for sightseeing. I had little knowledge and contact with the outside world. I was even a road idiot. I spent 100 yuan to ask the printing shop owner to make this map for me."
The proprietress saw that Chen Yi seemed harmless, always caring about others, and had a good heart, and was indeed an honest and simple young man.
After hesitating for a moment, she pointed to the marked points on the map and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing in these places?"
Chen Yi: "It's like this. An elderly person in our family is bedridden. There is a distant relative whom the elderly person has not seen for many years and he has always missed him. In order to fulfill the elderly person's wish, we inquired for a long time and finally found out that this relative had lived in these two places."
"I happened to come here today to burn incense and pray for blessings, so I wanted to try my luck and see if I could find her and bring her back home to meet the old man and fulfill his wish."
When the proprietress heard what Chen Yi said, her gloomy face slowly began to turn red.
I thought, not only is he handsome, but I didn't expect he is also a filial grandson.
She motioned Chen Yi to put the map away, and deliberately picked up a handful of incense, pretending that he was explaining something. Then, she whispered:
"There is a vegetarian restaurant behind the temple. You can go there to eat, but don't talk nonsense. It's a sacred place for Buddhism, so it's not good to talk nonsense."
She hesitated for a moment, quickly scanned the outside of the store, and then lowered her voice again: "I advise you not to go to that village. This is all I know. You should go up the mountain to burn incense after dinner, and wish your old man a speedy recovery."
Chen Yi could hear the implication behind the proprietress's words. She was hinting at something that was inconvenient to say out loud.
He understood, otherwise he would have been in vain as the president's special assistant.
Chen Yi looked at the boss lady with gratitude, "Thank you, boss lady! I wish you a prosperous business!"
Finally, he picked up the bag of incense materials and hurried out of the store, stuffing the big bag into the trunk.
As soon as Chen Yi got back into the car, Chu Xing asked anxiously, "What's the situation? Did your beauty trick work?"
Chen Yi pursed his lips and frowned: "The boss lady probably likes men like Lao Yang. She is only slightly attracted by my beauty and is still unwilling to reveal too much. But what we know now is that the first target point is a vegetarian restaurant."
"Let's hurry over there now, maybe we can get some food, but it's all vegetarian. The lady boss warned us not to be too curious and not to talk nonsense when we eat there."
Chu Xing frowned after hearing Chen Yi's words.
He knew that everyone was a carnivore and was not happy with being a vegetarian. But for now, he could only go there to eat vegetarian food, try his luck, and try to learn more information.
"Then let's go over and have a vegetarian meal. We're sorry to have troubled you all. When we enter the vegetarian restaurant, please be alert.
"Don't be curious, curiosity kills the cat."
"Don't talk nonsense, because words can cause trouble."
"Okay, got it." The bodyguards responded.
Chu Xing then continued to ask Chen Yi: "Is there anything else that needs attention? Tell them all at once and tell them to pay attention."
Chen Yi rubbed his brows and said, "It's the village circled on the map. The lady boss repeatedly advised us not to go there."
"She seemed to imply that the village was hiding some unspeakable secret."
"When she mentioned the village, she seemed very scared. It can be said that she turned pale at the mention of it."
