Chapter 16: Is It Love?
Just as I was about to stagger, I found that the woman in my arms was immediately taken away by a man. I didn't have time to see who that person was, I just felt weak and collapsed in a soft place, and the warmth of the place made me not want to leave again, I just wanted to fall asleep.
"Black Wind, you take this little maid to heal. Dongfang Ao commanded, and immediately picked up Lin Xuerou in his arms and left. He gently placed Lin Xuerou on the bed and carefully covered her with the quilt. He didn't leave, and sat down quietly. Dongfang Ao was like this, just like that night in Baihualou, silent and just looked at Lin Xuerou. He gently traced Lin Xuerou's lips with his fingers.
She lost weight!!This was Dongfang Ao's first reaction when he saw Lin Xuerou. He saw Lin Xuerou tortured under the scorching sun, crying powerlessly under the torture, and saw her kneeling to the fifth brother for a maid. But he didn't come to help her, didn't protect her when she was helpless, just watched her silently. All this is just for his ridiculous curiosity!!
For the first time, he hated himself to death. If she had bought her herself, maybe she wouldn't have been so tired these days. He regretted it, but it was more heartache! He knew that this was his first heartbeat, for such a cheerful and strong woman!
"Is it still too late?" Dongfang Ao looked at Lin Xuerou and asked softly.
"Master, get ready. The sudden appearance of the black wind interrupted the deep affection in the house. Dongfang Ao put away the tenderness, worry, and self-blame in his eyes, and returned to the former amorous and hippie smiling Dongfang Ao.
"Well, you go down first. Dongfang Ao got up and whispered to Hei Feng, who nodded, put the food in his hand on the table, and exited the room. Dongfang Ao sat at the table, just waiting for Lin Xuerou to wake up.
I smelled the smell of food in a daze, and although I hadn't eaten for a day, my chest was already hungry and my back was pressed against it. I slowly opened my eyes, turned my head to look at the table, and saw the hateful Dongfang Ao sitting at the table, looking at me with a smile. I snorted coldly and skimmed him, I was angry that he didn't save him that night!
"Ahh I quickly lifted the quilt, forgot about my tiredness, sat down at the table, and gulped down the food on the table.
"Xiao Qingqing, eat slowly, there are many more. Dongfang proudly supported his chin and looked at Lin Xuerou who was struggling to eat with satisfaction, seeing that she could be so appetizing, the original worry gradually disappeared. Although he knew that she was still a little angry with himself, he would find a way to make her angry. Dongfang Ao thought happily.
"Ahem! ahem... Cough!" I was scared to choke on the food by a 'Xiao Qingqing', I put down the chopsticks in my hand and coughed hard. Pointing at him, I wanted to accuse him, but I couldn't speak.
"Just let you eat slowly. Dongfang Ao reached out and patted me on the back, complaining about me. 'I don't know who caused this!' I retorted angrily in my heart, but I couldn't scold.
Finally swallowed the dish, I relented, looked at him angrily, and slapped away his hand that was still caressing my back, "It's all your fault! Why do you call me 'Xiao Qingqing', the flesh is numb!!"
"Xiao Qingqing is so fierce. Dongfang Ao retracted his hand, rubbed his hand, pouted, and stared at me with a pair of eyes that were more charming than a woman, as if there were tears in his eyes, and I think even a woman would feel pity when she saw it.
I was looked at by him all over the body, I rubbed my arm that had already been called goosebumps by him, and then looked at him, it was obvious that he was at fault first, but now it seemed that I had hurt him.
"Well, it's not your fault. If you want to call it, call it. I said reluctantly.
"I knew that Xiao Qingqing was the best!" Dongfang Ao happily immediately rushed towards me, hugged me tightly, hugged me and kept calling "Xiao Qingqing". I rolled my eyes, why was this man such a scoundrel? I didn't pull away from his hand that was wrapping around me, maybe because of his appearance, I always thought of him as a woman. Suddenly, I felt only a cold air behind me, and I turned my head to look out the window, but I didn't find anything.
"Xiao Qingqing, let me like you, okay?" he asked coquettishly, this sentence caught my attention, I immediately pushed him away, I intuitively frowned, "Nerves!" gave him a cold answer.
Dongfang Ao was still smiling and pestering Lin Xuerou, but Lin Xuerou didn't notice his already dim eyes······
Bidding farewell to Lin Xuerou, Dongfang Ao walked alone in the garden, his face was still smiling, but no one noticed his knife-like mood at the moment!
"Third brother!" Dongfang Ao stopped and looked at Dongfang Rin, who was calling himself and walking towards him step by step.
"I have something to ask you. Dongfang Rin said. He quietly clenched his fists, his palms sweaty. However, he had to ask the third brother what he wanted about women, and the third brother should know best.
"What's the matter?" Dongfang raised his eyebrows in surprise, his fifth brother would also have something unclear?
"Ahem!ahem!" Dongfang Rin coughed, cleared his throat, and then said embarrassedly: "If you see a woman crying, your heart will be tightened, uncomfortable, and painful, as if this heart never belonged to you. And when I see him with other men, I can't help but get angry, and I ·····"
"Is it her?" Before Dongfang Rin finished speaking, Dongfang Ao had already put away the smile on his face and asked Dongfang Rin seriously.
"Ahem!" Dongfang Rin coughed in fright at the sudden question, and his usually cold face flushed incredibly. He looked at Dongfang Ao's scrutinizing eyes in embarrassment, "Who?" He knew who he was referring to, but he still pretended not to understand.
"You're in love with her. Dongfang Ao turned his face, not letting Dongfang Rin have a gloomy face at the moment, "You are in love with the woman I love!" he muttered, his voice so low that Dongfang Rin could not hear it.
"Love?" Dongfang Rin only felt that his mind was blank, repeating Dongfang Ao's words. Is this love? He didn't want to believe it, and he couldn't believe it. He thought that he hated women the most in his life, and it was impossible for him to fall in love with women, but he was planted in Lin Xuerou's hands! Was he attracted by her stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat? Or was it just a whim for her? If this was love, he would be angry when he saw the third brother hugging Lin Xuerou tightly!
Dongfang Rin was silent, just walked forward stupidly.
Dongfang Ao smiled bitterly, love to make the fifth brother who has always had a cold temperament become a helpless child?
"I don't have to fight with you for power, but I must do it!" Dongfang Ao raised his head and looked at the sky, and said firmly.
The sky was getting overcast, revealing an impending storm·······
