15. Reach an agreement
The atmosphere in the car was dreary, and no one spoke. Originally, except for Liu Yue's face on me, Zhou Tong was already pleasant, but now he returned to the starting point, and no one paid attention to me anymore. Sheng Shiyao, who was holding me behind him, didn't say a word, and I didn't dare to look back at his face, so I could only sit on his lap like this.
If Ah Q is a little more energetic, I should actually be glad that after revealing my inner thoughts, he didn't ruthlessly expel me like last time. To be able to stay means that there is hope, and it will not be in a desperate situation.
After about a few hours, I realized that the car was not driving home, but on an unfamiliar route. From the time he got on the bus to the present, Sheng Shiyao did not instruct, which means that the trip was originally planned.
I didn't drive overnight that night, and found a hotel to stay at along the way. After entering the room, Sheng Shiyao ignored me, took the clothes from his bag and walked into the bathroom, I leaned against the door in a daze, thinking of wording to break the deadlock.
The bathroom door opened, and it was not the first time I had seen a beautiful man out of the bath, but the shock of the visual effect was still very strong, and I turned my head in embarrassment, and cleared my voice twice: "That...... Shall we talk? Sheng Shiyao's reaction was that when I passed by invisibly, I turned my head and only saw his back.
Before he could care about his annoyance, he heard him throw a faint sentence: "Clean yourself up and talk to me again." ”
Aggrieved hugged his clothes into the bathroom, feeling that he was about to become that little daughter-in-law, and saw someone's face. Isn't it that I confronted him until the night before, and I spent it in the car last night, and it was late at night when I arrived at the hotel, and I didn't care about taking a shower for two nights, so he was disgusted with dirty and unclean.
Taking advantage of the bath, I silently read the abdominal manuscript I had just prepared again, and when I came out, I was already bold. But that bit of courage was annihilated a lot when he saw Sheng Shiyao half-leaning on the head of the bed, and his dark eyes turned to me, "Is there a lack of water or a water outage?" You don't wash your hair in the shower? ”
I said in my heart that he was really lenient, but his face was sincere and replied: "I'm not used to washing my hair at night, my hair is not easy to dry, and my wet hair is easy to get a headache when I sleep, I'll just wash it tomorrow morning." After saying that, he glanced meaningfully at his hair, which was still dripping, and a lot of water was dripping onto the sheets. He frowned and ordered, "Go wash it and come out again." ”
I had no choice but to go back to the bathroom and rinse my half-length hair from the faucet on the sink. When I went out of the bathroom door again, there was already a smell of shampoo, and I felt like I reached out to pick it up, and when I caught it, I realized that it was a new towel that had not been opened. Someone said expressionlessly: "I've asked Zhou Tong to buy ten new towels, it's enough for you to dry your hair." "I had a black line on my forehead......
I don't know how the conversation revolves around the hair, but since he opened his mouth to talk to me, it was an opportunity.
"Prosperous ...... Well...... Ah Yao, I admit that I was holding the purpose of cooperation at the beginning, but I said...... I like you for this, it's sincere, and there is no impurity. "I knew that he was especially concerned about the salutation, and I had suffered a lot of losses in it, so I blurted out his name halfway through, and immediately changed the word "Ah Yao". When facing him alone, the words "like you" are easier to say, and he is not afraid of the following.
I only heard Sheng Shiyao snort lightly and said, "If this sentence is not sincere, do you think you can still stand here now?" I was stunned for two seconds before I realized, he meant that I had to lose the last confession to be allowed to stay by him? Tentatively asked, "What if I hadn't said I liked you at the time?" ”
"Since there is no reason to impress me, it is natural to follow the original judgment."
The original verdict? Returning to a strange place? "Even if it...... Even if I really propose cooperation, I can't impress you? ”
"Cooperation?" He chuckled lightly and took a contemptuous attitude, "Xiaoxiao, what leverage do you have to cooperate with me?" ”
One sentence blocked me, the bargaining chips I thought had been argued before, and they might exist, but they weren't so important that he couldn't give them up. Suddenly, my hands were empty, and the towel he was holding had been taken away by him, and when I reacted, he was already wiping my hair, not gentle, but not rude either. Sneaking a glimpse, his eyes were a little impatient, but there was a rare seriousness in it, and the solid stone somewhere in his heart gradually became softer.
In a misguided moment, I heard him ask softly in his ear: "Have you heard of Jinsha Ancient Town?" ”
Jinsha Ancient Town? I don't understand why he turned the topic here, but he still replied along with his words: "I have heard of Golden Beach, Jinshazhou, Jinsha Island, Jinsha Bay, I don't know which place Jinsha Ancient Town refers to?" "I haven't been to all of them, but I've heard and learned about them.
Golden Beach, there are several places named after this, Yantai, Qingdao, Dalian, Shanxi and other places in Shandong. But what is impressive is that during the Northern Song Dynasty, the Battle of the Golden Beach of the Yang Family, which was named after it in many places in later generations, may also have a commemoration of the martyrs of the Yang family.
Jinshazhou is located in the west of Guangzhou, and is commonly known as Straw Shoes Island by locals. Jinsha Island, formerly known as Zhongwei Jinsha Island in Ningxia, is located on the southeastern edge of the Tengger Desert, the fourth largest desert in China. Golden Bay is located in Xiasha Village, Dapeng Peninsula, south of Mirs Bay, and Hong Kong's Kowloon Peninsula across the sea.
But Sheng Shiyao shook his head and said: "You are not what you said, Jinsha Ancient Town is in the westernmost town, it is on the edge of the desert. The Huang family you are looking for is likely to be in that ancient town. ”
gasped, turned around sharply, grabbed the corner of his clothes and asked urgently, "Really?" Was it forced from the mouth of that Wong Tai Sin? He was noncommittal, but said: "It must take five or six days to drive from here to that ancient town, you are ready, after entering that desert area, there will be many unknown dangers waiting for us, are you sure you want to go?" ”
"Go, of course!" I raised my voice and swore an oath. Huang Taixian's road is already a dead end, if I don't find another way, I can only wait to see my grandmother's heartbeat stop, since Huang Xingyuan belongs to the secret art of the Huang family, then only by finding this mysterious family can there be a glimmer of hope. So far, I understand that although Sheng Shiyao doesn't say it, he actually has the heart to help me.
I said to him awkwardly, "Thank you." He raised his eyebrows, and was about to say something when there was a knock on the door, "Go open the door." I ran to the door without saying a word, and as soon as I opened the door, I saw Zhou Tong carrying a large plastic bag, and when I saw that it was, I asked, "Little sister, are you busy?" As he asked, he looked in, but he didn't know what he was looking at.
Sheng Shiyao coughed lightly in the room, Zhou Tong immediately retracted his head, stuffed the plastic bag into my hand, and said in a low voice: "Then, I have bought all the things for you, and you will be tired at night." "I was told that after closing the door, I went to look through the contents of the plastic bag, isn't it just ten towels, can I use such a big bag?
When I saw the ...... "miscellaneous" things in the bag, I felt several crows flying overhead, and suddenly understood the meaning of what Zhou Tong said before leaving. When he hid the bag behind him and walked back to the center of the room, Sheng Shiyao's gaze swept over and asked lightly, "What are you hiding?" ”
"It's nothing, it's just a towel sent by Zhou Tong." After replying to this, even I felt that I wanted to cover it up, but he didn't believe it, and stretched out his hand to me and said, "Bring it." I thought about the "superfluous" things in the bag, and I was very annoyed by Zhou Tong, a flash didn't pay attention, Sheng Shiyao had already deceived himself to the front, and as soon as he grabbed it, the plastic bag was lifted by him, and then the whole bag of things was poured to the ground by him, and the towels were scattered, not to mention, and the paper towels and the like also rolled aside, and the most important thing was that a small green box was exposed to the air.
His gaze fixed on the small green box for two seconds, and then slowly lifted, his dark eyes shining. I was so frightened that I hurriedly bent down to pick something, muttering as I picked it up: "Zhou Tong must have taken the wrong thing." When he picked up the green box, his cheeks were already hot, and they were red to the root of his ears, and he didn't dare to look at him after picking it up. ”
Before I could take two steps, he grabbed my waist from behind and brought him into his arms, and the next moment his breath was overwhelming. The entanglement of lips and tongue was instantaneous, when the back of the body touched the soft sleeper, the alarm bell sounded in his head, but soon his mind was swallowed by him. By the time he finally let go, I was already soft, and I saw a hint of annoyance in his eyes, but I heard him whisper, "Sleep." ”
I was confused and turned my back to him and wanted to fall asleep, but he turned over from behind, wanting to say that it was uncomfortable to fall asleep like this, but the warning whispered in my ear: "Don't move, if you move again, try the contents of the green box." ”
The warning took effect immediately, and I didn't dare to move, even if I was stiff enough to be numb. It wasn't until his breathing was shallow and became regular that his tense nerves relaxed, and he gradually fell asleep.
When he set off the next day, Zhou Tong wanted to make a joke, but he was swept by Sheng Shiyao's sharp eyes, but he didn't dare to make a sound. Finally, I had a chance to gloat, watching Zhou Tong eat and secretly snickering in my heart, let you buy that last night, and someone's deterrence can shock you.
After that, the itinerary is very regular, driving during the day and staying at night. But since that night, Sheng Shiyao has not slept with me again, and for whatever reason, I am happy to be at ease and sleep soundly. When passing through the big city, Liu Yue and Zhou Tongyou got out of the car together to buy things, most of which were goggles, scarves, masks, food and other substances that must be used in the desert.
I have secretly pondered that Jinsha Ancient Town, Sheng Shiyao said that it is in the westernmost part, the desert boundary, and the biggest possibility is the Dunhuang side, and even extends to the Xinjiang boundary. In Dunhuang, the most famous is the Yumen Pass Yadan Devil City, which is a fascinating and unpredictable realm for many people. Will Jinsha Ancient Town be over there?
