Monster Escape Room Re-Employment Chapter 12

Human Cultivation Manual

After Jiang Lingyi returned home, he carefully planned the route for a day trip with Lou Xian tomorrow. This was his main purpose. Rounding it off was a date. The so-called helping Pang Mei get familiar with modern society was just a pretense. He naturally cut that guy out of all the imaginary pictures and dug out a mirrorless camera from home that had not been used for a long time. He wanted to take a lot of photos with Lou Xian, and he wanted to leave as many memories as possible.

He put the charged battery and memory card into the camera and adjusted the performance. The first picture that popped up was the graduation ceremony two years ago.Wearing bachelor’s uniforms and tasseled bachelor’s hats, several silly male college students were chasing each other and playing on the school lawn, arms around each other, and laughing so hard that their eyes narrowed to slits.When Jiang Lingyi saw these heartless roommates, the corners of her mouth turned up involuntarily. Their group had been silent for a long time, but occasionally bubbled up. Some were working hard in big cities like him, some were returning to their hometowns to live and work in peace and contentment, and some even got married for the second time.From this point of view, Jiang Lingyi’s life progress is not very fast.

He flipped through the photos to the left, including photos with teachers. He couldn’t even recall the names of some teachers. It was only two years ago.

There are about six or seven photos with this content, and then there are hundreds of photos of Lou Xian taken from various candid angles.

The representative flower of that class of graduates was Agapanthus, and wherever there were flower beds in the school, they were replaced with relatives of the Amaryllidaceae family, the same as Bianhua. The six slender, dark-colored flowers formed an umbrella shape and formed a small sky. They were elegant and melancholy, and were very consistent with Lou Xian’s unsullied temperament.Jiang Lingyi believed that he was not the only one who had secretly taken photos of Lou Xian. Every photo and every angle was impeccably beautiful.

Lou Xian’s time seemed to have stopped at this moment two years ago, and he never took a step forward again.

He was sitting in a garden with agapanthus in full bloom, his gray eyes calmly staring at a certain focus. The breeze caught his raised hair, as if he was waiting for the arrival of someone. It would be an exaggeration to say that the scene was a masterpiece by a certain painter, or the cover of a certain magazine.Jiang Lingyi’s fingertips brushed his cheek on the screen. At this moment, Lou Xian didn’t know that they would break up in ten minutes.

It is a despicable act to ask for love from Lou Xian, who does not understand human emotions but is very gentle. People cannot give what they do not have. Lou Xian can only give specious answers, which ultimately leads to a tragic ending.Jiang Lingyi decided to keep the current distance before Lou Xian understood all this. He would not confess again. He wanted to make Lou Xian confess to him. He could wait, and he was confident that he would wait until one day, even in front of his grave.Such was his paltry ambition.

He turned off the camera and put it back where it belonged.

The next day, he went to the store early in the morning to check on the situation. Unexpectedly, he got an unexpected surprise. The two girls named Xiaojia and Bingbing came to the store together yesterday. They later heard that the boy was making trouble in the store, and they felt very sorry. After giving him a lesson, they came over to apologize.

“Store manager, I’m really sorry for causing you trouble.”

“I’m…sorry too!” Xiao Jia bowed and apologized sincerely, then turned to Bingbing and said sheepishly, “Bingbing, I also want to apologize to you. Yesterday, I got too emotional and spoke too hastily to you.”

“It’s okay, I know you didn’t mean it.” It seemed that the two of them had reconciled.

Jiang Lingyi smiled broadly: “You two are so polite. Please bring more friends over to play in the future. You can also see the true face of some people.”

The two girls smiled knowingly and promised to come and play again in the future.

It was almost the appointed time, and Lou Xian showed up in the store on time with Pang Mei. The wandering souls who came to say hello ran away as soon as they saw Pang Mei. It seemed that he had left a deep psychological shadow on them.Lou Xian added a khaki rhombus knitted vest to his shirt, and a small knot on the back of his head, which was a more refreshing demeanor. Jiang Lingyi couldn’t take his eyes away, thinking “My wife, you are so beautiful”, and she was glad that there was no one among the employees who could read minds.

The first stop is to go to the mall to buy some regular clothes for Pang Mei. Jiang Lingyi and Lou Xian’s figures are too different from his, so they can’t fit them with old clothes.Pang Mei was much more honest than when he first came here. Maybe it was just his weak body that prevented him from being arrogant. As soon as he walked out of the store and left the range of the Yin and Yang clutch formation, his steps were obviously shaky. Jiang Lingyi and Lou Xian could only hold one of his hands at the same time. It was a bit like a prisoner being interrogated, but also a bit like a family of three. In short, it was very strange.

Jiang Lingyi randomly selected a youth fast fashion brand and asked Pang Mei to choose clothes and try on them. He and Lou Xian were waiting outside the fitting room.

A child next to him pointed at Lou Xian and said innocently: “Mom, that big brother has red mosquito patches on his neck!”

His mother quickly covered his mouth and took him aside: “Shh! Don’t say such things loudly!”

Jiang Lingyi looked at Lou Xian, and then noticed that there were still lingering hickeys on his neck. They were exposed like that, without any intention of covering them up… Lou Xian didn’t realize that the mother and son were talking about him, and didn’t understand the need to cover them up.

Jiang Lingyi covered her face, ah, look at the good thing you did, causing Lou Xian to die accidentally… Otherwise, I’d better remind you.

I guess Pang Mei took a lot of clothes in and tried them on for a while, but they didn’t come out soon.So Jiang Lingyi randomly picked up a few pieces of clothing to show off, and pulled Lou Xian into a fitting room.

“Do you want to buy clothes too?” Lou Xian was confused.

“No!” Jiang Lingyi lowered his voice and pointed at his neck, “This… you should find a way to cover it up or eliminate it.”

Lou Xian looked at the mirror and touched the hickey: “Why?”

Jiang Lingyi felt even more guilty if she went to the company with a hickey on her face, her face burning, and she hesitated to explain: “Well… this mark is proof of the intimacy between lovers, but it is too private, and it would be a bit shameless to let others see it in public…”

Lou Xian was even more confused: “But we are not lovers.”

Now Jiang Lingyi’s face turned as hot as a slap: “Yes, I went too far yesterday, I’m sorry.” The rhythm seemed to be off track, and he quickly corrected it, “Just because we are not a couple, we shouldn’t let others misunderstand us! Otherwise, everyone will laugh behind their backs.”

Lou Xian nodded: “I understand.” He gently covered the location of the hickey with his hand, then took it away after a moment, returning it to a smooth and clean state.

…Then he grabbed the hem of the clothes and started to lift them up, as if he was about to take them off.

“Wait a minute!” Jiang Lingyi hurriedly stopped him, “What are you going to do?!”

“You bit me many times.”

Jiang Lingyi was sweating like rain: “Those, don’t worry about those…”

“Don’t you need to worry about what others can’t see?”

Huh?I always felt that this statement was a bit subtle, but Jiang Lingyi had no time to pay attention to him, so he just took it as such, nodded hurriedly, and asked him to put on his clothes.

“Don’t…don’t take off your clothes at every turn.”

“I don’t have exhibitionism.” Lou Xian said, “The fitting room is a place where you can take off your clothes.”

Pang Mei, who was in the fitting room next door, listened to the conversation between the two people word by word. He conjured a small notebook out of the void and used his fingertips as pens to carefully record in it: If you bite a red mark on someone else and everyone sees it, that person will be laughed at.Great, I learned an important lesson about etiquette, justice and integrity.

He has not forgotten the shame of being grabbed by the collar yesterday by Jiang Lingyi and forced to press his head to apologize. He will use this trick to repay him twice as much later!

In front of the self-service checkout counter, the total price of a bunch of clothes popped up on the screen. Jiang Lingyi almost burst into tears. It wasn’t that he couldn’t afford it, but he hadn’t bought clothes offline for many years. When did the prices of these shopping mall brands evolve to the point where there was an exchange rate difference with the RMB he knew?He glanced at Pang Mei, and if he had known better, he would have sent him away with the all-powerful Taobao and Pinxixi. If he dared to wear out these clothes within a month, he would have peeled off his skin and sewed it on as a patch.

Pang Mei naturally did not miss this detail. He swept most of his clothes into the recycling basket next to him, leaving only a sweatshirt that can be adapted to all seasons and a pair of pants that look like they can be worn forever: “Those are unnecessary.”

This time Jiang Lingyi was surprised: “Have you changed your gender? Or do you still have a fever?” She reached out to touch his forehead.

Pang Mei took a step back and crossed her arms: “Humph, I just don’t want to owe you too many favors.”

Jiang Lingyi hadn’t been moved for more than five minutes by the fact that the child was sensible. As soon as he left the store, Pang Mei suddenly pulled his arm, lifted up his sleeve, and took a hard bite on it, leaving a row of bright red teeth marks.

“You have rabies!” Jiang Lingyi shouted angrily.

Pang Mei looked around, hoping that everyone would see Jiang Lingyi’s red mark soon and laugh at him.Jiang Lingyi rubbed her arms and glared at the smug kid. She felt that competing with him was too boring, so she muttered a few words and said nothing more.

The passers-by just regarded it as an ordinary fight and no one cared. This battle was not as effective as expected. Pang Mei felt that she had made a mistake and wanted to ask Lou Xian for confirmation, but she couldn’t bear to speak, so she had to keep her mouth shut. She looked like she was inexplicably excited and inexplicably sulky.Jiang Lingyi had no intention of becoming a father, so he didn’t bother to care about what was going on in this kid’s mind.Pang Mei took care of herself, muttered a few words to herself, and she quickly felt better again.Lou Xian observed their non-interactive interaction throughout the whole process. These two people… were quite interesting.

Lou Xian whispered to Jiang Lingyi: “He is nervous. There are many people in the mall, and he can only show off in this way in a completely unfamiliar and uncomfortable environment.” The implication is that you should be more patient.

Now that Lou Xian had asked, Jiang Lingyi took stock of Pang Mei’s condition and temporarily changed her plan. She originally wanted to visit some scenic spots, but with Pang Mei’s current level, she couldn’t bear the impact of the crowds of people, so she gave up and only planned to visit nearby neighborhoods.

“Stop on red light, go on green light, don’t stop in the middle of the road.” Jiang Lingyi taught earnestly when crossing the road.

The signal lights at the intersection completed a round of red and green transitions. Various vehicles moved forward, stopped or turned in an orderly manner according to the color instructions. Pangmei looked around in wonder.

“Is this fully automatic light magic? It’s amazing.”

Jiang Lingyi didn’t say anything, so he said yes.

Passing by a boarding private middle school, it is a junior high school and a high school. Behind the fence is a regular brick-red building. The students on the playground are jumping and running in uniforms, full of energy. The school bell echoes for a long time. Some classroom windows are open, and the autumn breeze brings the sound of reading loudly. Pangmei can’t help but stop and watch.

He knew that this was a school, and there were similar facilities in his hometown, but he had never gone to school. He had followed the noble sages to practice since he was a child.

Jiang Lingyi thought he was attracted by the scene, but unexpectedly he uttered a sentence after a while: “Only the weak are willing to be enclosed in a comfortable fence and move in groups.” However, his eyes were clearly eager, and he held the railing tightly with his hands, eager to see what the students were doing.

Jiang Lingyi suddenly had an idea, and Lou Xian quickly understood and nodded lightly.

He put his hand on Pang Mei’s shoulder: “I’m glad you found a home for yourself.”
