Chapter 38: Seriousness
"Auntie, let Zhao Xiao go to sleep with you, Ruyi and I will go to Zhao Xiao's room."
Didn't you just say yes?
"That's done."
So, in the end, it was decided that Zhao Xiaolin glanced at Wen Ruyi before returning to the room, with a malicious warning, as if he was telling her not to do anything to her brother Hongze.
Wen Ruyi was not to be outdone, and glared back.
This back and forth eye contact was seen by Chu Hongze, and although he still had a serious look on his face, he was no longer angry in his heart.
In fact, he wasn't very angry just now, but he was a little annoyed when he heard Wen Ruyi's evaluation, he thought, if someone else said this, he might just listen to it as a joke, and it was only her, and what she said would affect his mood.
"Let's go, sleep."
Chu Hongze didn't wait for her and went into the house first.
As soon as she entered the house, Wen Ruyi was dumbfounded, Zhao Xiao's bed shouldn't be enough for the two of them to sleep, if it was her and Zhao Xiao, they might be able to squeeze it for a night, but Chu Hongze, a man with long hands and feet, plus her, how would the two of them sleep?
"Won't you be able to sleep with this?"
Wen Ruyi asked tentatively, and Chu Hongze glanced at the bed: "You stay here, I'll go to Zhao Duo's side." β
What kind of gentleman is pretending to be at this time, alas, what a man who is twisted.
"Otherwise, squeeze it, he may not be able to sleep over there."
Wen Ruyi really felt that he was a contradictory person, he was still worried that he couldn't sleep just now, and he was going to leave people in the next second.
"Scared?"
The little Jiujiu in his heart was pierced all of a sudden, Wen Ruyi was very calm on the surface, but in fact he was very panicked in his heart, but he was still a dead duck with a hard mouth.
"How is that possible? I... How could I be afraid! β
Oh? Is it?
"Then I'm leaving."
Wen Ru didn't think Chu Hongze was joking, and he began to be anxious.
"Hey, Chu Hongze, you..."
Of course, it is false to say that she is not afraid, although she is from the 21st century, her thinking is relatively avant-garde, and she is a doctor, of course she will not be afraid of those demons and monsters.
But in this room, she could always hear the screams outside the house that she didn't know what it was, and she panicked in her heart.
She didn't dare to think any further.
"Huh? Anything else? β
This man did it on purpose.
"That's... I..."
But I can't say anything if I admit defeat.
Chu Hongze saw her look embarrassed, and he no longer embarrassed her, and smiled: "Okay, if you're afraid, just say, why are you doing so much?" β
Is this promised? Wen Ru thought that he had already sat on the bed and began to take off his shoes, so she hurriedly ran over and got into bed in front of him, what happened in the palace that day, she was still a little embarrassed to think about it now.
When Chu Hongze lifted the quilt and lay on the bed, what he saw was that the woman inside was leaning against the wall, shrinking in the innermost, he was helpless, sighed, and hooked her into his arms after lying down.
Wen Ruyi crashed into Chu Hongze's arms defenselessly.
"Sleep!"
In a tone that could not be refused, Wen Ruyi originally had something to say, but when he saw him close his eyes, he stopped talking.
Wen Ruyi felt a little uncomfortable at first, but then she was too sleepy and fell asleep.
When she woke up, Chu Hongze was no longer there, she was lying on the bed alone, looking at the sun outside.
Suddenly, he sat up suddenly.
When is it?
At this time, a person came in the room, it was Zhao Xiao.
"Came out to eat."
Zhao Xiao didn't want to look at her more at all, so he dropped such a sentence and withdrew.
Oh my God, this is in someone else's house, how can she sleep until now, why didn't Chu Hongze call her? It's a shame.
Wen Ruyi hurriedly lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and then secretly went out to wash, and when he entered the house, everyone was already there.
"After eating, I'll take you to horseback riding."
Chu Hongze didn't mention it, Wen Ruyi probably forgot about it.
Maybe because of yesterday's relationship, the relationship between her and them has become familiar with a bit, and this meal, Wen Ruyi ate quite smoothly.
She originally thought that there were only the two of them today, but as a result, there were Zhao Duo and the annoying Zhao Xiao.
Zhao Xiao was very happy, chattering all the way, making Wen Ruyi's head big.
They have a total of three horses, Zhao Xiao and Zhao Duo each have one, and she, a horse farm Xiaobai, rides one with Chu Hongze.
After a short ride, they arrived at their destination, which was a very wide meadow, and the whole thing looked very pleasing to the eye.
"Brother Hongze, let's race horses."
When Wen Ruyi heard her words, he wanted to get off the horse and take her to race horses.
"No, Ruyi she can't ride, I'll teach him."
Chu Hongze didn't let her get off the horse, Wen Ruyi had no choice, so she had to obediently listen to him and her about horseback riding skills.
"Chu Hongze, Zhao Duo and his sister like you."
As soon as he finished speaking, his head was bursting.
"Look ahead and study hard."
Hmph, it's just escaping, the little girl clearly likes him, she can see it in her eyes and words, and she admitted it yesterday.
"You really don't even let go of children."
"Still not learning?"
Chu Hongze pulled the reins, and the horse suddenly stopped.
"Learn, I was wrong, don't talk nonsense anymore."
Admit your mistake first, and you'll be right.
Sure enough, Chu Hongze didn't care about what she just said, and continued to take her to learn to ride a horse.
After studying for a while, Wen Ruyi thought that he was smart enough, no, after learning for a while, he felt that he could ride alone.
"Chu Hongze, you go down, I want to try it alone."
"Okay, slow down, be careful."
Chu Hongze got off the horse, leaving Wen Ruyi alone, her eyes were glowing with excitement, looking ahead.
"Drivingβ"
Wen Ruyi rode alone, Chu Hongze was a little uneasy, his eyes kept following her, fortunately, she rode well.
Wen Ruyi was in the mood alone, Zhao Xiao rushed out from her side, Wen Ruyi was startled, and quickly grabbed the reins.
"Phewβ"
The two horses stopped together.
"Are you crazy? Who are you scaring out of nowhere? β
Before Wen Ruyi could speak, Zhao Xiao was the villain who sued first.
"You rushed over from my side out of nowhere, okay? It's inexplicable. β
Zhao Xiao didn't care, he just insisted that she was going to hit her.
"It's a disappointment."
Wen Ruyi dropped a sentence and was about to leave, but was stopped by Zhao Xiao.
"Let's race horses."
"I just learned it today."
Wen Ruyi threw her a roll of the eyes.
"Don't you dare?"
"Little girl, it's useless to provoke me like this, I don't eat this."
Wen Ruyi didn't eat this set when she was a child, but she was a little curious about what this little girl was paying attention to.
"Still, I'm curious about what the penalty for losing is."
Zhao Xiao thought she had agreed: "The one who lost..."She thought for a while and continued: "Just go to the mountain to pick up some firewood and go back, two loads." β
It's not unacceptable, so let's compare it, and by the way, you can see how you learn.
"How do you compare?"
"Take this as a starting point, run to my brother and them, and then come back, whoever comes back first wins."
"Done."
"Three! Two! One! β
The two of them rushed out at the same time as fast as they could, and at the beginning, it was Wen Ruyi who was ahead, but when she turned around, she made some mistakes.
If it weren't for Chu Hongze's quick eyes and quick hands, even if he pulled the reins for her, she might have been thrown off by the horse at this time, and Zhao Xiao passed by her proudly.
"What are you doing?"
"Horse racing!" Wen Ruyi sighed: "Lost." β
Zhao Xiao has already run a long way, and he should not be able to catch up.
"I just learned to race horses with people, and I don't want to die?"
Chu Hongze really felt a headache, why didn't she worry about it for a while?
"Am I all right?"
"If I hadn't been here, what would you be doing now? Come down, don't ride anymore. β
With that, he reached out to carry her off the horse.
"Ride a little longer, I'll take my time this time."
"Nope."
In the next second, her whole person was taken down by Chu Hongze.
After a while, Zhao Xiao came over on horseback, not to mention the smile on his face, and Wen Ruyi was upset.
"Willing to gamble and lose, let's go."
Chu Hongze stared at Wen Ruyi curiously.
"Brother Hongze, Sister Ruyi will borrow it from me, you can go back first."
After speaking, she stretched out her hand and pulled Wen Ruyi onto the horse.
"No, let's all go back together."
"You go back first, I'll come back with Xiaoxiao later."
Sister Ruyi? Xiaoxiao? When did their relationship get so good?
Chu Hongze wanted to say something, but Zhao Duo on the side pulled him over: "Okay, the two little girls obviously don't want us to know about them, let's not follow suit, let's go." β
Chu Hongze still didn't feel at ease, but Zhao Xiao had already ridden a horse and left with Zhao Xiao.
Well, I hope I'm too worried, go back and wait.
Wen Ruyi sat behind Zhao Xiao, her heart was almost scared out, how frizzy this girl was, I don't know if she did it on purpose, anyway, she was almost thrown off the horse.
"Here we are."
Zhao Xiao got off the horse first, and Wen Ruyi was still shocked.
"Come down, do it, the sun is about to set."
Wen Ruyi jumped off the horse at this time, but she didn't expect that as soon as she came down, Zhao Xiao was about to leave with the horse, but Wen Ruyi hurriedly stopped her.
"Hey, where are you going?"
She's not going to leave herself, is she? Little girl, don't be so careful, okay?
"After running for so long, the horse is thirsty, so I'll take it to drink some water."
Wen Ruyi let go of her hand: "Then remember to come back to me." β
"Got it."
After Zhao Xiao left, Wen Ruyi felt more and more uneasy, but she still started to pick up firewood, she threw the firewood around her where Zhao Xiao brought her just now, and after picking up all the firewood around her, she wanted to go to the front to take a look.
When Zhao Xiao came back, Wen Ruyi didn't wait for her here, and she didn't know where she went, only a pile of firewood was there.
"Ruyi! Wishful! β
Zhao Xiao began to panic a little after shouting twice and no one responded.
