The man responded to the little princess with a half-low chuckle, and then went on unhurriedly.

"When that's all done, how are you going to thank me, Amiens? ”

Hearing this, Xia Mian frowned inadvertently. She did not hide her displeasure, and let those negative emotions surge in, so that the face that was so innocent that it was not worldly, because of the sharpness revealed in her eyes, compared to the two of ordinary girls, only endless coldness remained.

But this sharpness is only for a moment.

When there is a request for others, the relationship can not be completely stiffened, Xia Mian's pride and self-esteem are difficult to maintain under the current situation, and the knee-jerk reaction is instinctive, but under the control of reason, he has to give appropriate concessions. So when facing the man's unabashed-free arrogance, she quickly laughed sweetly, as bright as the sunshine that turned into snow.

"It's really chilling to be so angry with me, and I thought that with the relationship between us, I didn't have to put these exchanges of interests on the table. So Brother Bai, what do you want, don't you want me to thank you Bai family?"

"The Bai family doesn't have much to do with me now, the only person you should be thankful for is me. ”

"So what?" Xia Mian asked knowingly.

"I just hope you know who's helping you. ”

There was a flash of irritation in the girl's gaze, and it was quickly suppressed, and it became a smile that appeared in those extremely beautiful blue eyes. The corners of Xia Mian's lips curled a little, and he looked at Bai steadily.

"Of course I know what you want. ”

Xia Mian responded, his voice crisp and good.

With the swaying and overlapping branches, her gaze moved down a little along the face hidden in the shadow of the hood, and then without waiting for Bai to respond, Xia Mian sat up lazily with her elbows propped up. With such a large movement, the small golden bell hanging from her ankle reverberated crisply.

"Anyway, what I have is time, and when the length of life no longer needs to be measured by time, it's okay to do a little boring thing once in a while. So, I don't mind spending decades with you, and that's what we say is good. ”

"What about after that?" the man with the hood coughed lightly, and his voice came out faintly, "I will save your life, revive the old department of Loulan for you, and accompany you to slaughter the gods, will you just repay me like this?"

"You're greedy, aren't you?"

The little princess glanced at the man beside her, and she leaned forward slightly, putting her arm on his shoulder casually.

The soft flap of the lips brushed the corners of the white lips as if out of nowhere, with a hint of extremely soft touch. The distance between the two men was very close, and the light of the sun shone on them, and the scene was beautiful and holy, like the reliefs of the gods carved on the pillars carved from white jade.

It was a very light kiss, like a beautiful dream.

But at this moment, Xia Mian's laughter was tactful and good, and the sentence he said was clearly a heartless word.

"After that, of course, the bridge returns to the bridge, and the road returns to the road. ”

New Year's is always a unique charm, and it is a time of family reunion.

Even small towns are not free of fireworks, the sound of firecrackers in the year old, whether it is office workers or student parties, there are rare holidays, big guys around the TV to watch the Spring Festival Gala, make a big table of Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, change into new clothes and new socks, this is the year-end unique scene, singing and laughing in the new year.

The children have endless snacks and a huge amount of money for the New Year, and the adults will also put down their busy work, set up the mahjong table, and play cards while chatting, as if they have taken this opportunity to tell the witty words that have been accumulated for a year. Although it is rare to ask about work, grades, and the three major international embarrassments of urging marriage, this has also become a part of the flavor of the year, and it seems that even the nagging of disgusting relatives has a little warmth.

But these are obviously not true in Ah Cai's house.

After Shen Chuanyuan agreed to go home with Ah Cai that day, the little girl was obviously interested, just confirming this matter with Shen Chuanyuan several times was not over, seeing that it was still early, she was stunned and talked about many interesting things about the New Year when she was a child, and when she met a place that people were interested in, she even talked about popular science at length.

It's probably because the bonus of the person you like is too powerful, and at the beginning, Ah Cai was still able to control her mouth, knowing what to say and what not to say, and most of the things she talked about were inconsequential. For example, when I was a child, I secretly ate sacrificial apples, how my grandmother beat my palms with bamboo boards, the big pot of rice in the village and the bonfire party for the New Year, and the candy distributed by the priest's sister is said to have been soaked in holy spring water, and each child can only receive one, and after eating it, you can be lucky for a whole year and avoid all evil and disasters.

Those secrets about the Wu clan were firmly held in Ah Cai's stomach, and nothing superfluous was said.

But when the chat is in the mood, where are there so many scruples?

On weekdays, Ah Cai is alone, not to mention her crush, and she doesn't have any friends to talk to. Now that I finally met the gentle and elegant Shen Chuanyuan, not only can I catch all the stalks she throws, but I am also the leader of the beauty world in addition to being exquisite, and I have completely grown into her ideal appearance.

Not to mention far away, just looking at Shen Chuanyuan's appearance of listening quietly with his cheeks on his back was enough to make Ah Cai excited.

These many factors add up, and the more Ah Cai talks, the more excited he becomes, and the more his mouth becomes more and more uncontrollable. Even if there is still a little bit of sanity, it can't stand Shen Chuanyuan's emotional intelligence is too high, when it comes to the ability to talk quietly, the old fox who has been in Vanity Fair for many years is not his opponent, let alone a little girl who has just come of age and has no social experience.

Later, Ah Cai ignored her grandmother's instructions and even told the affairs of the Wu clan.

"When you were a child, you were colorful, think about my childhood, it was nothing more than setting off firecrackers and watching fireworks. Sometimes ethnic minorities are indeed a little more rigorous in the inheritance of customs, and I myself am a student of history, and I am really deeply touched to see that culture can be well preserved. ”

"That's a bit ...... you say."

Ah Cai's careful choice of words, as the so-called book is hated when it is used, it was only at this time that the little girl began to grasp her vocabulary, for fear of losing face in front of her crush, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence that was not a good description.

"It's really quite a scholar. ”

"Scholars, that's not it, it's just out of respect for history. Shen Chuanyuan smiled and waved his hand, "What you told me just now is very inspiring, if I have the opportunity, I would be happy to come over and do a field trip." ”

"Forget about the fieldwork, we don't allow outsiders to come to our village on weekdays. Ah Cai hurriedly said, "It's already a special case for me to bring you here, if you really bring the expedition team over, grandma will definitely not let you in." ”

"Is it a special case?" Shen Chuanyuan laughed, "Why am I a special case?"

"You're not an outsider, of course you can. Ah Cai retorted without thinking about it, looking at Shen Chuanyuan's smiling eyes, waiting for a reasonable explanation, before finally blushing a little, "You....... You're my friend. ”

"Friend?" Shen Chuanyuan repeated, nodding very happily, "I'm glad to get such an evaluation." Then when I go to your village this year, will I also see a bonfire?"

"Surely not this year, the tradition of bonfires in our country is actually the most important sacrifice in winter, and these can only be carried out by the high priest himself...... Our village used to be very lively, but then a lot of things happened, and it became what it is now. ”

"Oh...... It's a shame. ”

"There's no way, there are too many rules in our village, and it's been a bad depression in the past few years. Ah Cai frowned slightly, for fear of sweeping Shen Chuanyuan's excitement, and added after considering his tone, "Although there is no bonfire party, grandma's cooking is delicious, we can have a light meal, and by the way, ask your teacher about the totem he encountered." ”

In this regard, Shen Chuanyuan nodded generously without any doubts.

"It's okay, it's bothering you now. ”

A simple compliment made Ah Cai happy again, it was difficult for her to hide her emotions in front of Shen Chuanyuan, and all kinds of performances were summed up, as if she had suddenly received her favorite toy. The obvious sense of joy cannot be concealed, and it has to be shared with others to be satisfied.

Later, it got dark, and the makeshift meal came to an end.

But probably the conversation was too pleasant, and Ah Cai was a little reluctant to let Shen Chuanyuan go.

For this reason, she deliberately took out the extra quilt prepared in Axiu's embroidery shop, and put away the ornaments and embroidery on the two long tables.

Although Shen Chuanyuan repeatedly excused himself, saying that it was too troublesome to live in the store, and he was a living person after all, such behavior was considered overstepping. But the little girl finally has her own way, and she is a little familiar at first sight, and she doesn't think of him as an outsider at all.

After playing the emotional card, she didn't forget to be reasonable and reasonable, and analyzed the itinerary for Shen Chuanyuan.

"I have to get up early tomorrow to catch a mile, you live too far away, how can I find you?"

"We can make an appointment, I'll be here ten minutes early. ”

"Oops....... Why are you so tough, how do outsiders know how difficult it is to catch a bus in Meaux, you think this is your big city, and the bus is only ten minutes away?"

Ah Cai couldn't help but stuff the quilt into Shen Chuanyuan's arms, and with a very skillful movement, he put the two long tables side by side, and pulled a quilt to cover it with three times and five divided by two, making it a simple bed.

"Listen to me, stay here for the night, and tomorrow we can hurry up." You cultural people are a lot of rules, what do you care about those rules and regulations, I am the owner of the store and am not afraid of losing things, what are you afraid of a guest, and when I am a black shop, I will ask you for a sky-high price tomorrow?"

Looking at the little girl's delicate appearance with the corners of her mouth pursed, Shen Chuanyuan no longer refutated.

"Okay, then I'll rely on you for once. ”

Hearing that Shen Chuanyuan was finally relieved, Ah Cai breathed a sigh of relief, and bent his eyes and laughed.

"You should have relied on me a long time ago, I put the stove aside for you, it was very cold in the second half of the night, remember to turn it on. ”

In this regard, Shen Chuanyuan could only be respectful and obedient, and finally agreed.
