Chapter Twenty-Eight: Red Leaves and Qiao Xi

Qiao Xi looked at the miserable red leaves crying, and he had a headache for a moment.

He turned his head a little helplessly, looked at the sa bucket in the corridor who had been looking at this side worriedly, and couldn't help but cast a look of help.

- Although he can suppress the ghost energy on Momiji's body, he is really bitter for the crying girl.

Sa Dou was slightly stunned, and then suddenly laughed.

Qiao Xi helplessly conveyed his wishes with his eyes, but unfortunately Sa Dou did not accept it.

He laughed enough, so he winked at Qiao Xi, and then turned around with a smile to comfort the little monsters who were still panicking at this moment.

“……”

Understanding Sa Dou's eyes, Qiao Xi couldn't help but be silent.

Does he still have any dignity as a god?!

He grinded his teeth, then squatted down resignedly, took out a handkerchief and handed it to Momiji, exuding his strong gentleness and comforting: "Hey, don't cry so badly......"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but mutter,

"It feels like I'm bullying you."

- I don't know where this sentence poked the point of the red leaves, she suddenly stopped her movements and looked up at Qiao Xi, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground and lower than herself.

Qiao Xi tilted her head and looked at her seriously.

"I don't know why you're crying, but doesn't it mean that girls cry a lot and they don't look good?"

“……”

Momiji was silent, and the atmosphere was awkward.

Qiao Xi: "......"

So he's really the crying girl!

He faintly glanced back at the happy fight that seemed to be with the little monsters, and was thinking about whether to force him over and pull him over, when he heard Momiji suddenly sigh softly.

"It's so gentle."

Qiao Xi turned around and blinked in confusion.

The red leaves who were crying just now were like ghosts, and suddenly looked at him and smiled slightly.

The already gorgeous facial features look more and more dazzling because of such a smile.

As if she was sure, she repeated what she had just said, and the smile on her face gradually expanded, and this time she added a definite word.

"It's so gentle, Lord Fengyueshen."

Qiao Xi reached out and scratched her cheek with some embarrassment.

Gentle or something......

His gaze fell on Momiji's face.

Momiji smiled slightly, his facial features were as gorgeous as a blooming rose, he was wearing a red dress dyed with blood, his black hair was softly draped behind him, and the breath around his body looked unexpectedly gentle.

- It's really like the woman who is like Yamato Nadeshiko, who is known as the "No. 1 Beauty of Heiankyo", has returned.

In reality, however, she has degenerated into a ghost girl.

Qiao Xi stared at the red pupils with a soft smile on the red leaves, and suddenly smiled slightly.

Suddenly, he stood up, patted lightly on the top of Momiji's head, and said softly,

"Momiji is also very gentle, especially when she laughs."

The smile on Momiji's face was stunned for a moment.

Is it gentle?

She subconsciously raised her hand, and her slender but white fingers without a trace of blood lightly touched her cheek.

Her cheeks are also white and terrifying, which is unique to the ghost clan, and she knows that such a look, like a ghost, where will there be any tenderness.

She raised her hand and subconsciously covered her eyes.

She could feel the young god resting his palm on the top of her hair, touching it softly, and speaking with the same gentleness.

"It's true, Momiji-san is very gentle when he laughs."

Transparent tears involuntarily welled up from their eyes, one by one, flowing down their fingers.

Qiao sighed helplessly.

"Momiji Sang, if you continue to cry like this, Xiaosheng will really be at a loss."

"Allah, because Lord Fengyue is too gentle."

Sa Dou didn't know when he came over quietly, and answered with a smile.

Well...... Qiao Xi said that he felt that he could no longer look directly at the word "gentle".

He coughed slightly and said, "Well, no matter what, let's go in first, although the scenery in the courtyard is also very fond of it." ”

"Hey, hey!"

Sato responded with a smile, and Momiji stopped crying, and stood up a little embarrassed, her face flushed red because of shyness, which made her look a little more popular.

A few people sat in the corridor, and the industrious fireflies held spiritual tea and some snacks one by one.

- These are all fireflies who deliberately went to the world to learn how to do it, and then came back to make it themselves.

Momiji half-hangs his head and explains his intentions.

After all, she grew up with the education of human nobles since she was a child, and she can be said to be a real character like Nadeshiko, so she came to her senses at this time and felt very sorry for offending Qiao Xi before.

In addition, he had no relatives and no reason, but he ran over for help inexplicably, even though the other party was originally a god who fulfilled the wishes of humans, but Momiji still felt embarrassed to trouble the other party like this.

- Well, the main reason is that Qiao Xi looks like a twelve or thirteen-year-old child on the surface, although the breath on his body is very reliable, but the first feeling given by the vision makes Hongye and Qiao Xi always have the feeling of talking to their little brother when they talk.

- Well, although Momiji doesn't actually have a little brother.

Qiao Xi is not stupid, seeing that Hongye's expression is cramped, he naturally has some guesses in his heart, and he can't help but feel helpless.

"Ah, don't look at me like this, Xiaosheng is also a god who has lived for decades."

He lowered his head and muttered, eliciting an incomprehensible smile from Momiji and Sato.

"Yes, Toyotsuki-sama is an adult god."

Fireflies, who had been listening to them quietly, saw Qiao Xi's expression wilting, and couldn't help shaking the dandelion in his hand, and comforted him in a whisper.

Qiao Xi looked up faintly and glanced at the fireflies.

- I always feel that this sounds strange.

Hm~

He blinked, quickly put the matter behind him, and only said to Momiji:

"The scruples of the wine-swallowing boy Sang-san understand, so it's good for Momiji-san to live in this shrine."

As he spoke, he took out an ema with the word "Toyo" written on it and handed it to Momiji.

"No, although Xiaosheng is just a small god, but Momiji-hime should try to take this with him when he enters and exits the shrine as a ghost clan."

The monsters living in the shrine basically brought an Ema made by Qiao Xi himself, otherwise the pure qi in the shrine would gradually purify the demonic energy on their bodies.

And as a monster, if you don't have a demonic energy, it's almost no different from ordinary creatures.

Momiji naturally knew this, reached out and took Ema over, thanked Qiao and tied it around his waist.
