Chapter 252 On the Importance of Daily Image Management

"But the scent in this sachet smells delicious."

“I wonder what the spices smell like?”

"Really? Let me smell it."

"I also want."

Yu Xiao carefully opened a small hole and handed it to them.

Wang Tong and Zou Xinning put their heads together and started sniffing hard.

"Wow, it smells really good."

"What does this smell like?"

"do not know."

Yu Xiao frowned in annoyance. "I usually use a lot of perfume, and I can still distinguish many scents."

"But the scent in this sachet is something I've never smelled before."

"We'll find out when the time comes when we ask Xiao Xiao."

"Ah."

……

Xiao Xiao and his friends didn't expect that the person they thought they wouldn't see for several days would appear in front of them so soon.

Xiao Xiao and others: ...

Looking at Yu Xiao who greeted them with a smile, Xiao Xiao and the others felt indescribable.

Yu Xiao was fine, so they were naturally relieved and felt sincerely happy.

But this girl's recovery ability is amazing.

……

"Hey, make way."

Wang Tong held the food tray and motioned to the boys to make room for them.

After a lot of commotion, everyone finally sat down.

Xiao Xiao and his friends naturally wouldn't be so tactless as to bring up the matter of confession, and they just chatted with the girls pretending they knew nothing about it.

However, they didn't mention it, but Yu Xiao took the initiative to bring it up.

Yu Xiao sat opposite Xiao Xiao.

She raised her eyes and stared at Xiao Xiao, shaking the small red sachet in her hand, "Xiao Xiao, thank you for the sachet."

“It helps me a lot.”

Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment, then slowly smiled, "You're welcome."

“I’m glad it worked as it should.”

"But I heard Xiaotong and Ningning say that there should be something in this sachet?"

"Then why is there nothing inside when I open it?"

"Hey, really?"

"Old Three, you are too lazy."

"Third brother, please at least put something in there."

After a moment of surprise, Zhang Bo and his companions gradually understood.

It doesn’t matter whether the sachet is stuffed with something or not; what matters is the meaning it is given.

So, Xiao Xiao just didn't put anything.

Although they all knew what was going on, they still felt that even so, leaving the sachet empty was too perfunctory.

By the way, is this kind of sachet useful?

Was it true that Yu Xiao’s previous words were just polite remarks?

……

“Is there nothing in the sachet?”

Seeing Xiao Xiao's puzzled expression, Wang Tong rolled her eyes and said, "You are still pretending."

"Xiao Xiao, you are really cutting corners."

Zou Xinning was speechless and complained.

Xiao Xiao just curled the corners of his mouth slightly and said nothing more.

In fact, he really didn't know that the hair of the 猼訑 would disappear after it had worked.

After all, it was the first time for him to use the hair of the 猼訑 on people.

……

"Hey, Xiao Xiao, can you tell me what kind of fragrance is in this sachet?"

Yu Xiao stared at Xiao Xiao's eyes closely, with a bit of eagerness. At this moment, Yu Xiao didn't look sad at all because of the love injury in the morning, as if she had let go of everything in the morning, or forgotten it.

However, Xiao Xiao knew that this was just an illusion.

On the one hand, Yu Xiao really liked the scent of the sachet. On the other hand, Yu Xiao probably deliberately magnified this liking, forcing himself to devote all his attention to getting to the bottom of the scent.

Even though it may seem like self-deception, Xiao Xiao feels that this approach is also a good way to adjust oneself.

But, “Is there any fragrance in the sachet?”

Xiao Xiao asked back, his face showing pure innocence and confusion.

"You do not know?"

Yu Xiao couldn't help but raise his voice a bit, with some doubt in his eyes. He didn't know this or that. Was this sachet really Xiao Xiao's?
"Ah."

"This sachet was given to me by a senior monk I met by chance during the summer vacation."

Xiao Xiao brought out the same reason he used to fool his cousin and aunt last time.

"Eminent monk?"

"Which temple?"

"do not know."

"He was a wandering monk who happened to pass through Yanjing. Now no one knows where he is."

"A wandering monk?"

“Are there still wandering monks now?”

Everyone looked in disbelief, as if they were listening to an Arabian Nights fairy tale.

"That's why I thought he was like a great monk and shamelessly asked him for the sachet."

Xiao Xiao's expression was serious. As he spoke, he felt that he had really met such a monk with a weather-beaten face but clear and distant eyes during the summer vacation.

The Buddha nature in one's body is awe-inspiring.

"Chi~"

Taotie pulled Xiao Xiao's hair a few times and sneered disdainfully at someone who lied without batting an eyelid.

Human beings are extremely cunning and never tell the truth.

Feifei just raised his eyelids lazily, without any reaction to Xiao Xiao's fabricated stories. As far as it was concerned, Xiao Xiao could say whatever he wanted, and as for the other people who were fooled, what did it have to do with it?

……

Although others thought what Xiao Xiao said was nonsense and unbelievable, they still chose to believe it, with a look of realization on their faces.

The main reason is that Xiao Xiao’s image has always been extremely positive.

Besides, it was just the origin of a sachet, so they didn't think there was any need to hide it.

In this regard, Xiao Xiao said: On the importance of daily image management.

"But if that's the case, where can we find that master?"

"I can't ask what the fragrance in the sachet comes from."

Yu Xiao's fingers gently stroked the sachet hanging from her other wrist, and there was obvious regret in her voice.

The unknown monk traveling around and the strange fragrance that has never been smelled before are really a combination that makes people want to explore.

"Ah~ what a shame, this scent is really unique and nice."

Wang Tong wailed, supporting her chin with one hand, looking at the small sachet on Yu Xiao's wrist with a bit of resentment. She was also thinking of asking Xiao Xiao to give her a similar sachet, or tell her what the smell was and have someone make one for her.

"Yes, I wonder if I will have the chance to meet that monk in the future?"

Zou Xinning did feel regretful, but she quickly cheered herself up and looked forward to meeting that monk one day in the future.

"Does it really smell that good?"

Zhang Bo and others who were watching the whole scene finally spoke up to make their presence felt.

"Let me smell it."

Zhuge Yun shamelessly extended his hand to Yu Xiao.

Yu Xiao smiled and moved someone's claw away, then moved his wrist a little closer to himself.

"No."

"This sachet is empty, so every time you open it, the fragrance is lost."

“I want to preserve this scent longer.”

"So, sorry."

"Okay, it's okay."

Zhuge Yun shrugged to show his understanding.

Zhang Bo and Zhao Luzheng also gave up the same idea as Zhuge Yun with some regret.
