Chapter 16: I'm Not a Good Man
"What?" Ran Xin saw Xun Zhi's peach blossom eyes flashed a rare trace of coldness.
"I have already negotiated with General Yu Yan of the garrison, and I will exchange you for armaments and materials in a few days," Xun Zhi observed the change in the girl's expression.
She went from shock at first, to anger, and now to resentment, with tears glistening in her eyes.
"I thought," Ran Xin didn't know whether he should cry or beat him up, "I thought...... Even if I'm not your old friend, you don't have to be so utilitarian,"
Ran Xin tried hard not to let the tears flow, and asked indignantly, "What are you these days?" Pleasing me? Or are you afraid that if I die, you won't be able to exchange good armaments? ”
Xun Zhi's thin eyebrows frowned slightly. He had just wanted to try this girl to see if she would be a spy, but he didn't expect her to react like this.
"Ran Xin, I am," Xun Zhi lowered his head, and when he raised his head again after a moment, he turned into a smile again, "I lied to you, how could I exchange such a cute you for some armaments and materials,"
Ran Xin looked at Xun Zhi's smiling face in a daze, looking happy that he had succeeded in his treacherous plan.
"Xun Zhi! You're playing such a joke on me! It's not funny at all! Ran Xin raised his hand and wanted to hammer Xun Zhi, but stopped in mid-air when his gaze fell on his left hand.
"Isn't it funny? I think it's funny, I feel very happy to see your face flushed with anger," Xun Zhi deliberately held Ran Xin's raised wrist with his left hand as he spoke, and pressed Ran Xin's fist on his cheek.
"Even if you punch it, it's worth it," Xun Zhi looked at Ran Xin and stopped getting angry, and the strange feeling of suffocation in his heart disappeared.
Ran Xin withdrew his hand and sat down on the edge of the bed angrily, his head down, ignoring the bastard.
"Ran Xin," Xun Zhi's tone became low, and his eyes staring at Ran Xin also revealed a deep and indistinguishable emotion, "I'm not a good person, maybe I will really exchange you for those things that are beneficial to my camp in my opinion,"
Ran Xin raised his head and met Xun Zhi's gaze. Ran Xin was stared at by Xun Zhi's deep eyes, and his heart jumped suddenly.
"Xun Zhi, I, I don't know what to say," Ran Xin exhaled deeply, "You saved me, I'm grateful to you, in my blank brain, you are the first person to be good to me,"
"So I never guess why you saved me, why you took me to the test, why you went out of your way to give me food, I just want to be simply grateful to you,"
Xun Zhi stared at Ran Xin in silence, and there was an indescribable sadness in his dark eyes.
"Xun Zhi, I don't know what the world has become now, but one thing I know is clear, that is, if you have kindness, you have to revenge, if you need me one day, you need to exchange me for something, I think I will be willing, just as you saved me,"
"Wasn't you so angry that you were about to cry just now?" Xun Zhi felt that he couldn't understand this girl anymore.
One moment she was angry that she was going to trade her, but the next she agreed to it. What a strong self-psychological construction this must be!
"I didn't have time to think and react for a while," Ran Xin smiled at Xun Zhiyingying.
"Oh," Xun Zhi showed his trademark smile again, "Then let me tell you, what I just said was not a joke, it was serious,"
Ran Xin raised his eyebrows, looking completely disbelieving.
Xun Zhi nodded very seriously, "It's true, it's just that I won't let you go, I'll find someone to go in your place,"
"Why?" Ran Xin didn't understand what Xun Zhi was going to do.
"Because of you, you are too weak," Xun Zhi covered his mouth with his fist, lowered his head and smiled, "With your little effort, you will trouble me to save it again when the time comes,"
Ran Xin couldn't refute Xun Zhi's words, he was indeed too weak, and it could be said that he was powerless.
"Will the person who went in my place be in danger," Ran Xin feared that the person pretending to be himself would be caught by the garrison.
"No, we have a careful plan, and I will find someone with good skills," Xun Zhi looked at Ran Xin's stupid look of only caring about others, and his hands were a little itchy, wanting to rub her head.
"If it really doesn't work, I can go by myself, although I'm weak, but I should still have the ability to protect myself, and," Ran Xin smiled evilly, "And you're so good, if I'm unfortunately caught, please come and save me again,"
Xun Zhi was amused by Ran Xin's words, "Just say these words to you, I won't let you go to the scene, you just stay here obediently, and when this matter is settled, I will arrange for you to officially join my camp,"
"You're not afraid that those people will take revenge on you after you rob them of their weapons," Ran Xin asked curiously.
Xun Zhi squinted and smiled at himself, "I'm an exile army, all the supplies and weapons have to be robbed, if I am afraid of retaliation, I will not stay here,"
"I understand, food and clothing have to be robbed, no wonder there are fixed rations," Ran Xin nodded matter-of-factly.
Xun Zhi finally didn't hold back, stood up and walked in front of Ran Xin, and gently rubbed the top of Ran Xin's head a few times with his right hand.
"Oh, don't rub my head," Ran Xin slapped Xun Zhi's hand away unhappily.
"I'm rubbing your hair," Xun Zhi continued without the slightest pause.
Ran Xin originally wanted to scold Xun Zhi for two sentences, but when he looked up, he saw Xun Zhi's somewhat sad eyes.
Ran Xin turned his head, didn't look at Xun Zhi, and muttered in a low voice, "Don't rub my hair in the future, I don't like it,"
"Okay," Xun Zhi withdrew his hand and changed the topic, "Do you want to go to that instrument room again today?" ”
"If you're very busy, forget it, anyway, there will be more time in the future," Ran Xin knew that Xun Zhi must have a lot of things to do, and it was impossible to revolve around him all the time.
"If you want to go, we'll go, if you don't want to go, I'll do something else, and I'll bring you food at noon," Xun Zhi looked down at Ran Xin, who was also bowing his head.
"I want to be alone for a while, you go about your business, and when I officially become one of you, I think I have time to go there," Ran Xin still lowered his head.
Xun Zhi simply squatted in front of Ran Xin, tilted his head and looked up at Ran Xin, "Are you angry, unhappy?" ”
"No," Ran Xin didn't expect Xun Zhi to squat in front of him and look up at him.
He was such a big man, squatting in front of him, and he was squatting with his legs together, and he tilted his head to try to look at himself, and the sudden change in the painting style made Ran Xin laugh.
"It's good if you don't have it," Xun Zhi pursed his lips and laughed, the corners of his mouth raised high.
"Why don't you tell me what it's like outside now," Ran Xin actually always wanted to find an opportunity for Xun Zhi to talk to him.
"Yes," Xun Zhi smiled and nodded.
Xun Zhi just squatted like this, looked up at Ran Xin, and slowly told Ran Xin about the situation in the world. Xun Zhi told the situation of the whole world like a story, and Ran Xin also stared at Xun Zhi intently and listened carefully.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open by someone, and Chi Yu shouted urgently, "Commander! ……”
Chi Yu was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he didn't say the three words "something happened", and then closed the door with a "bang".
