Chapter 45 Miyu doesn’t want her mother to know, right?

Under the scorching sun, the school stood alone in the fields, with low mountains behind it. The mountains were lush and green. When going to school, Yi Yuan Miu always looked at the stretching mountains through the window.

The sound did not come from the school, but from the opposite direction. It came from a two-story building that stood alone in the fields like the school, guarding the only way to go to school.

The small building was originally very old, and a room on the first floor was used as a small shop. This is the only small shop in Iori Village.

Last semester, the old lady and her family who guarded the small shop moved away. The day after they left, a red pickup truck and a white van drove up. A group of people in blue uniforms got out of the two vehicles.

, go into that house and knock.

During that time, this small shop and the engineering team were the center of discussion among the students.

A young man who came to the village from other places, like her family, took over the house and small shop.

The small shop has been renovated and is three times larger than before. There are many more snacks and toys inside. The door has been replaced by a wooden door that can be opened automatically. I heard from the teachers that the small shop is almost the same as the ones in the city.

It’s the same as a convenience store.

In school, Yi Yuan Miyu often hears classmates making appointments to go shopping at the canteen.

She has never been there, and most of her snacks and daily necessities are purchased online by her mother.

At this moment, the voice calling her came from the small shop.

"Hello--!"

A white arm stretched out from behind the counter of the small shop and shook towards her.

Yiyuan Miyu was sure that the other party was calling her.

She didn't want to come into contact with strangers, and her mother told her to stay away from handsome men. The appearance of the new owner of the small shop could be compared with the entertainers on TV, so he was considered handsome.

However, the other party almost called her by name, and it was too late to pretend not to hear.

She walked towards the small shop, and the moment she stepped through the door, the air-conditioning hit her face, dissipating the heat from her body.

Yi Yuan Miyu breathed in the cool air comfortably.

The arm that called her was still stretched out, so she walked to the side of the cashier and looked at the other person.

Behind the white counter, there is a small folding bed, and the new owner of the small shop is lying on it, watching videos on his tablet.

"Make me a cup of beef-flavored Cup Noodles. The Cup Noodles are on the shelf, and the hot water is in the kettle on the table inside."

The man's words were very natural. His eyes only glanced at her and then returned to the tablet.

Yiyuan Miyu was confused, could it be that she had a good relationship with him? Otherwise, how could he make such a request so naturally?

She was embarrassed to refuse, so she walked to the shelf, picked up a spicy beef-flavored cup noodles, and walked to the depths of the convenience store.

There is a long table there with an electric kettle on the corner of the table.

She picked up the kettle, shook it, put it down, walked over to the man, and poked his leg.

"What's wrong?" the man asked.

"There is no hot water." Yiyuan Miyu said softly.

"Isn't it just a matter of boiling water? Don't be formal, just treat it as your own home."

I don’t even know you! There’s no way you can be regarded as your own, right? Yiyuan Miyu complained in her heart.

She returned to the small shop, filled the water, boiled the water, and made instant noodles.

During this process, her little mind was greatly confused.

Why should I help a stranger cook instant noodles at his home?

When it was the best time to eat, she took the soaked cup noodles and placed them on the cashier.

"Thanks." The man sat up from the folding bed, propped up the tablet, ate the noodles and continued to watch the video.

His thank you was very frivolous, and Yi Yuan Miyu could not feel the sincere gratitude from it.

The girl was a little dissatisfied and walked towards the door of the small shop.

"Wait a minute." The man stopped her again, "The mop is in the cleaning room at the back. Let's mop the floor."

Forget instant noodles, why should I mop the floor for you?

Yiyuan Miyu was full of doubts.

She wanted to ask the man, but he was concentrating on eating instant noodles and watching videos. It was rude to interrupt others when they were concentrating, so she hesitated.

After this hesitation lasted for a few minutes, new questions emerged. It is also very impolite to refuse someone after a long time after they have finished speaking.

Then, there is only one way left.

Yi Yuan Miyu walked to the cleaning room and picked up the mop.

The blue mop rubbed hard on the white floor tiles, and Yi Yuan Miyu vented her grief and anger on the innocent floor tiles.

If there is a next time, she must decisively refuse!

Take advantage of the opportunity to mop the floor and think of a good reason for rejection first!

It would be rude to refuse directly, so be more tactful.

By the way, just say that mom is waiting for her at home!

With an action plan, she works much faster. At home, she often cleans with her mother, even running a small shop.

Finally, after washing the mops, putting away the mops, tidying up the messy cleaning room, taking out the garbage bags filled with garbage and replacing them with new ones, Yi Yuan Miyu breathed a sigh of relief.

Carrying the garbage bag, she walked up to the man and said, "It's done."

"Thank you." The man still had the same frivolous tone, staring at the tablet without even looking at her hard work.

His lips paused for a moment, and then gave a new task: "Help me throw this away."

He was talking about the finished cup noodles. The task was very simple and Yi Yuan Miu did not refuse.

The girl opened the garbage bag in her hand and put the cup noodles in.

"Help me get the charger again. There are some on the shelf, just grab one."

This request was also very simple. Yiyuan Miyu turned around and took steps.

No! Yiyuan Miyu, didn’t you already want to refuse?

Although these tasks are simple, there is absolutely no reason for you to do them!

Damn adults, you actually exploited the value of my child’s labor!

She took the charger to the man and said before he could say anything: "I'm going back, my mother is waiting for me at home."

"Is that so? I also want Miyu to help me tidy up the house. Living alone is really troublesome. I've been so bothered by trivial matters recently. Why don't you leave after Miyu finishes?"

"Sorry, it's getting late, I have to go back." Yiyuan Miyu has already made psychological preparations, established a strong spiritual defense line, and is determined not to be the other party's free labor!

"I think it would be better for Miyu to help me tidy up the house before leaving."

The man's words reminded Yi Yuan Miyu of the crime lines on TV. She took a step back in panic and clenched her fists nervously.

"Don't be so nervous. I don't want to threaten you."

The man finally looked away from the tablet, a smirk appeared on his handsome face, and his deep eyes curved into crescents as he looked at her.

He said in a brisk tone: "How about this, let's play a logical reasoning game, and Meiyu can leave regardless of whether she can guess the answer or not."

"Okay." Yiyuan Miyu wondered what the man wanted to do.

The next moment, words that sent shivers down her spine came out from the man's beautiful lips:

"Ask a question, during the hot day during the summer vacation, other children either stay at home to escape the heat, or have to go out to bask in the sun to play with their friends. At this time, there is such a little girl, she neither stays at home nor with her friends.

, wandering alone in the sun for many days in a row, why is this?"

Yiyuan Miyu's body froze, and she looked at the man in horror.

"The answer is that she told her mother that she wanted to go out and play with friends, but she had no friends at all, so she could only hang out alone and kill the time before going home. This little girl must have gone too far. Her mother would be very sad if she knew it.

.”

The man suddenly covered his mouth: "I accidentally said the answer directly. I forgot to give Meiyu time to think."

He scratched the back of his head as if he was really apologizing.

"Miyu can go now, mom is waiting for you, right?" He stood up and looked at Yiyuan Miyu with a smile on her face, "Or, if Meiyu finds that she still has time, she can help me tidy up the house.

?”

For the first time, Yiyuan Miyu knew that a person could smile so beautifully and yet bring such fear to others.

This is a threat! It’s definitely a threat! If I don’t help him clean up the house, he will report me to his mother!

What is shown on TV is indeed true, there are good and bad people among adults!

Her heart was mourning.

"I..." she swallowed, "I still have some time."

"That's great. Without further ado, let's go!"
