Daoist, please stay

Chapter 42 "Resistance" from Brother

Everything in the rental house is as usual, but Tao Xi has a sense of sadness that he will never go back again.

He watched Xie Qinglan arrange the two chairs facing each other, and stretched out his hand.

"Sit down and let's talk."

Tao Xi sat down apprehensively, putting her hands and feet back obediently.

Without waiting for Xie Qinglan to sit on her buttocks, she was the first to grab the crowd.

"I was wrong, sorry!"

Xie Qinglan frowned habitually.

"Where did you go wrong?"

The conscience of heaven and earth!He really wanted to ask him why he said he was wrong, not to be weird.

Tao Xi showed the most upright attitude, and seriously began to reflect on himself.

"I shouldn't have concealed my real family situation from you, making you mistakenly think that I'm poor, and pity me to help me make money; I shouldn't have concealed my true intentions, and tried to kidnap you and me to wander around the world; I'd rather I shouldn't use my appearance advantage to deceive you, use you... But in fact, I am unintentional, do you believe it?"

Xie Qinglan remained calm on the surface, but her heart was turbulent.

"Well, then you can talk about it in detail, what is wrong and how to correct it."

"Huh?" Tao Xi was dumbfounded.

Is this the process of admitting mistakes?

In the past, when he had a guilty conscience and confessed his mistakes to his father or elder brother, they would basically pick them up high, put them down gently, and just babbled a few words and it was over. No one really asked him to admit it. When mistakes are made, self-analysis and self-reflection are included.

But this time, after all, it was outrageously wrong. Thinking about him as Xie Qinglan, he might scold the liar and walk away.

So for the first time in his life, Master Tao Er began to write the inspection report orally.

"The first mistake, I shouldn't tell you that I'm poor...but I didn't mean it, you know. I really don't have much money now, but I didn't say that my family has no money. I told you before My father gave birth to me at a very young age, my mother left early, and my brother was very strict with me, it's all true."

Yes, that's right.These are all true.

It's just that he didn't tell Xie Qinglan that his father didn't care about him because there were at least three nannies in the family who were dedicated to serving the young master 24 hours a day, so he didn't need the old man to do anything.

The reason why the elder brother took care of him was that he was very skinny when he was a child, jumping up and down all day long, and the old man was extremely protective of his cubs who wanted the stars but not the moon. If the elder brother hadn't replaced the stern mother to teach the younger brother, he might have raised a little dandy coming.

He was brought up by his neighbor's uncle and aunt since he was a child... If their aunt and housekeeper are counted as uncles and aunts who live next door to him, there is nothing wrong with him...

Xie Qinglan thought with a straight face, Tao Xi can't be blamed for this.After all, the process of brain processing is not innocent.

Tao Xi watched Xie Qinglan's face, and carefully started the second reflection.

"Also, I didn't mean to deceive you and me into starting a business. I really, really like traditional Taoist culture, and I have liked it since I was a child. It's just that my father and my brother hope that I can study finance or business management, and then go to work in Tianhai But I'm really not that kind of material. I feel dizzy when I look at those numbers and rules and regulations. I just like reading Zhouyi gossip and Taoism classics. So I made a bet with the old man, saying that if I can rely on my own ability If I make a name for myself outside, he won’t force me to go home and inherit the family business.”

The more I talk, the more guilty I feel.

It seems that he is deliberately using Daoist Xie to pave the way for him to escape from the control of the family...

"No, but I really feel very happy with you! Very happy! Although I am happy to set up a stall by myself, but you know that sometimes a person can be a little lonely..."

"I know."

"Although you sure don't... huh?" Tao Xi was interrupted by Xie Qinglan's words.

"You said you knew?"

Xie Qinglan nodded solemnly.

"I know. It's lonely to be alone. So am I."

Tao Xi's heart, which was shrouded in apprehension and uneasiness, seemed to have opened a small hole, and the sun shone in.

He probed carefully.

"so……"

Xie Qinglan readily admitted.

"So with you, I am also very happy. I feel much stronger than when I am alone."

Excited!

Tao Xi pursed his lips and narrowed his eyes, trying to hide his ecstasy.

"Then can you forgive me a little bit, and are you still willing to be with me..."

"I am willing."

Before he could finish speaking, Xie Qinglan hurriedly expressed her opinion.

Realizing that he might be in a hurry, Daoist Xie touched his nose in embarrassment.

"What I mean is...Although it's wrong for you to hide so much important information from me, I'm willing to give you another chance because you know your mistakes and can correct them and have a good attitude."

Tao Xi's happiness couldn't be concealed now.

The corners of the mouth curled up into a cat arc of laughter.

He kicked the chair away, knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists in both hands, and saluted.

"Fellow Daoist, the prime minister has a heart, a deep understanding of righteousness, and is not as knowledgeable as a villain. Please accept me, brother, ah no, please accept my worship!"

Xie Qinglan was taken aback by his provocative and nondescript bow.

In a panic, he supported his elbows with his hands, and he bowed reflexively, and his two heads knocked together firmly, with a duang sound.

……

There is no need to do such a big gift... It's like paying homage...

Xie Qinglan rubbed Tao Xi's head while secretly thinking.

What Tao Xi is most afraid of is that Xie Qinglan misunderstood that she deliberately lied to him, and left in a rage, abandoning him.

Now that I have received Taoist Xie's verbal forgiveness, I am so flattered that I can't find Bei, so I don't care about such minor injuries and pains in the body.

Hastily pulled Xie Qinglan to draw cakes for him, planning a grand blueprint for the future.

"So you don't go to Nanjing, and you don't go to Guangzhou?"

Tao Xi shook his head with the last bottle of yogurt in his mouth.

"I won't go. The old man in Pingzhou can't bear it. No matter how far away, he will send someone to arrest me and lock me up as a mascot. We each give in to each other. I will go back to the capital to start a business, and he will not interfere with what I do." Speaking of this, he was still a little worried about gains and losses, so he asked a special question.

"You will accompany me to the capital, right?"

Xie Qinglan nodded absently.

"I can go anywhere, just stay with you. But..."

He has his concerns.

Looking at Tao Xi, who was drinking yogurt and shaking his legs happily, Xie Qinglan felt a little worried.

"Your brother...is it really okay?"

It seems that Mr. Tao doesn't like the way he gets mixed up with his younger brother very much.

That Mr. Jing said that they did a survey on themselves in advance, could it be that they knew their sexual orientation...

No wonder at that time, the eldest wife of a wealthy family threw a check to ask Cinderella to stay away from her precious son.

Tao Xi is happy at the moment, and her eyes are full of air.He didn't notice Xie Qinglan's hesitation and hesitation at all.

"My brother? What's wrong with my brother?"

Xie Qinglan gritted her teeth and reminded him.

"That Mr. Jing gave me a check of 100 million. It should be ordered by your brother."

Tao Xi smiled awkwardly on his face.

"alright."

Xie Qinglan was worried.

"He wants to use money to force me to leave you, so how can he agree with you to continue hanging out with me?"

Tao Xi bit the yogurt bottle and babbled nonsense.

"This...that...how should I put it?"

Too bad, how should I tell him that the 100 million was given by the eldest brother to test Xie Qinglan?

a few hours ago.

rental house.

Tao Xuan couldn't bear his brother's sadness and disappointment, so he told him.

"That person named Xie Qinglan may not be as good as you imagined. How do you know that the other party's approaching you has no purpose at all?"

Tao Xi was furious.

"Don't insult my friend with nonsense! We share weal and woe, we have lived and died together! He will not take my money!"

Tao Xuan was not without worries.

"Because you are so passionate and easy to trust people, my father and I dare not let you out alone. You don't need to explain for him, I asked Jing Hao to contact him. If the other party is here for money, just try it." I know. I hope you can accept the reality when the time comes."

Tao Xi said firmly.

"Impossible! He's not that kind of man! If he's someone you can pay for, I'm blind. But what if he's not?"

Tao Xuan smiled.

"Silly boy, if he is not a money-grubbing person, I can turn a blind eye to you. But have you ever thought that he may not be greedy for money, but he will not forgive your deception."

Tao Xi was dumbfounded.

Brother is right.

He believed that Xie Qinglan didn't have a purpose to approach him, but that also proved that he was really deceived by himself.

He didn't accept money from his elder brother, maybe it was out of anger at being cheated...

Then think of that kid Jing Hao, although he has nothing to say about his work ability, but the probability of offending people with his daily mouth is really high and a bit outrageous.

"If the other party is really as you said, a friend with the same goals as you, and you can forgive your deception. Then I will help you persuade Dad to invest in your company in your own name, only pay money, and not interfere with any of your businesses. Operation and maintenance activities. How about it, dare to bet with me."

Tao Xi almost gritted her small white teeth.

Big brother is big brother, an old fox!

He talked about democracy and fairness, but in fact he was put here a long time ago.

Does he have a choice?

Oh, there are still.It is to sincerely beg the other party's forgiveness...

……

Recalling the memories that floated to the horizon, Tao Xi came back to his senses and said vaguely.

"Don't listen to Jing Hao's nonsense, my brother didn't want to use money to force you to leave me... No, why are you talking so awkwardly?"

Xie Qinglan only grasped the key point of "I didn't force you to leave me".

"Really? He agrees to us continuing to be together?"

Tao Xi nodded firmly.

"Yes."

Nothing wrong!In the big brother's plan, although there is a 50% probability that Xie Qinglan is a money-grubbing villain and runs away with money; there is a 45% probability that Tao Xi's deception will make her angry and break off friendship, and there is only a 5% probability that the two can reconcile as before. .But as long as this 5% is established, he has to fulfill his promise and support him and Xie Qinglan to start a business together!Nothing wrong!

The logical Tao Xi nodded confidently.

"He still supports us very much!"

Although Xie Qinglan didn't see any meaning of "support" from the other party's eyes and words, but Tao Xi was so sure, so it must be.

Xie Qinglan actually felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared with Tao Xi's innocuous "deception" to himself, the emptiness without Tao Xi's participation in his future life will make him even more restless.
