Chapter 273: Choosing to Conceal
"Isn't it because of you? In the days when the news of the earthquake came out, if I hadn't stopped it, your sister would have to report her resignation to the company and buy a plane ticket to find you in the desert! ”
Leng Bai glared at Jiang Huo angrily, and told all the things that had happened these days.
Unlike Jiang Yu, Jiang Huo doesn't have much sense of belonging to this world at all, probably because of the factor of outsiders. From the day he came to this world, Jiang Huo regarded himself as an outsider.
This sense of rejection from the depths of his heart creates a distance between Jiang Huo and others.
Perhaps, those who get along with Jiang Huo regard this ethereal but real sense of estrangement as an illusion; Or, they think it's because of Jiang Huo's character; But judging from Jiang Huo's current social circle, Jiang Huo has always been protecting himself and protecting himself from being harmed by others.
After listening to the cold words, although Jiang Huo wanted to comfort her sister, she didn't know how to speak, what she could do now was to open her arms, put her arms around Jiang Yu, and tried to make up for her lack of feelings with a single movement.
Hugged by her sister, Jiang Yu buried in Jiang Huo's chest, suppressed tears for a long time, and finally couldn't resist the eruption of feelings, like a flood that burst the embankment, gushing out uncontrollably.
Leng Bai shook his head, sighed lightly, carried the vegetables he had just bought from the supermarket, turned around and walked into the kitchen, preparing dinner.
Leng Bai didn't know why Jiang Huo didn't explain his identity to Jiang Yu, if Jiang Yu knew about these things, I'm afraid he wouldn't be so worried and excited.
By the time Leng Bai brought the prepared dishes to the table, Jiang Yu had already fallen asleep in Jiang Huo's arms.
Leng Bai pointed to Jiang Yu in Jiang Huo's arms, but did not make a sound, Jiang Huo picked up his sister and sent her into the room.
After taking off his coat and covering the futon, Jiang Huo walked out and closed the door with his hand.
Jiang Huo sat opposite Leng Bai and said in a low voice, "Thank you." ”
Leng Bai put his hands on his cheeks, stared at Jiang Huo's eyes with beautiful eyes, and said, "Thank me for what?" What's so thankful for that? ”
Jiang Huo was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head slowly.
Yes, with the relationship between Leng Bai and Jiang Yu, what else is there to thank for?
"This time, is it really an earthquake?" Leng Bai saw that Jiang Huo understood what he meant, so he asked: "If I remember correctly, there is no earthquake zone there at all, according to the analysis of those experts, this is a disaster that is rare in a thousand years......"
"Hey......" Jiang Huo sighed and said, "Sister Baibai, there are some things that really don't need to be said too clearly......
Jiang Huo understood what Leng Bai meant, the other party just wanted to ask about this incident, but the monk was doing it.
How should Jiang Huo answer this kind of question? Isn't it possible to tell Leng Bai what he has experienced?
The less you know about some things, the less likely you are to be hurt.
However, after listening to Jiang Huo's helpless words, Leng Bai also guessed in his heart. Since Jiang Huo didn't want to say it explicitly, she wouldn't force it. Therefore, Leng Bai directly changed the topic: "What does the jade pendant you asked people to send back?" ”
"It was for my sister's self-defense, there was some small trouble at the time, and I was not in the magic capital, so I could only ask someone to send a jade pendant over for emergency." Jiang Huo didn't mean to hide this matter, and vaguely said a rough idea to Leng Bai.
After Leng Bai listened, he nodded slightly and said, "Aren't you going to talk to Xiao Yu'er about this matter?" ”
The thing Leng Bai was referring to was naturally the matter of Jiang Huo's identity as a monk.
"Forget it, what is there to say, the more words you have, the more difficult it is to explain......" Jiang Huo shook his head and said directly: "It's better to hide it from her first, and when you can't hide it anymore, tell her......
"Ostrich mentality? Oh...... No, there is no scientific basis for this statement...... Leng Bai supported his cheek with his right hand, knocked on the table with his left index finger, and said, "Since you have decided, then I will not mention these things in front of Xiao Yu'er...... However, if Xiao Yu'er finds out that something is wrong in the future, you will have to explain all the problems to her clearly......
The ostrich mentality mentioned in Leng Bai's mouth is actually made up artificially.
Back then, a cartoonist had a brainstorm and drew an ostrich with its head stuck in the sand trying to escape a disaster. Later, after the adaptation of some "experts", this picture became a counterexample to educate people not to escape from reality. In fact, these are all fabricated stories.
Ostriches live in hot desert areas, where the sun is intense, and the hot air rising from the ground convections with the cold air at low altitudes to form water vapor, which is scattered and appears like a glittering lake.
Normally, the ostrich cranes its neck to look through the mist, and when frightened or detects an enemy, it keeps its head and neck close to the ground. This has two effects, one is that distant sounds can be heard, the molecular spacing of the solid is small, and the sound transmission effect is far better than that of gas, which is conducive to avoiding danger as soon as possible; Second, it can relax the muscles of the neck and eliminate fatigue.
In fact, no one has really seen the scene of an ostrich burying its head in the sand, the ostrich king lives in the desert area, as long as it dares to stick its head into the sand, the respiratory system will be immediately blocked by the sand, this is called suicide, not to avoid danger.
The ostrich is two meters tall, the tip of the claw has a sharp distance, and the speed can reach 80 kilometers per hour, that is to say, the ostrich king is running on the road in the city, and he will be fined by the traffic police uncle for speeding. Its feet are strong enough to kill an adult male lion, such a formidable creature that you believe it needs to bury its head in the sand to avoid danger?
"If my sister really finds out the clue, I will definitely explain it clearly!"
With Jiang Huo's affirmative words, Leng Bai nodded with satisfaction. She stretched her waist, the tight sweater on her body outlined a graceful arc of her body, and a lazy voice came from her cold white mouth: "When will Xiao Yu'er sleep?" You're not going to call her to eat? If you don't get up again, the food will be cold later......"
"I'll take a look......" Jiang Huo stood up and walked towards the room. Now that he has finished discussing with Leng Bai, Jiang Huo doesn't have to worry that the other party will deliberately say his own things in the future.
Walking into the room, Jiang Huo saw at a glance that his sister was like a shrimp, hugging the futon and curling up there tightly.
Jiang Yu's body was shaking incessantly, as if he was having a nightmare.
Jiang Huo stepped forward, sat at the head of the bed, stretched out his arms, hugged each other, and called affectionately from his mouth.
