Chapter 56: Are You There, Caring About Me?

……

After Sheng Scar's 'yes', the room fell into silence without anything to say, and it was very permeating.

Xia Nianzhi was a little dazed, even at a loss, what should she do next? What to say? Should you laugh? She suddenly realized that their relationship was like a spring, and any proximity and distance were constrained by external factors; Even if there was no gap, when the external force disappeared, the distance still existed, and the mountains and rivers were wide and the sky was wide and the north and the earth were north.

However, this is not normal at all.

Treat strangers who meet in Pingshui, they can at least do it, smile and greet, and maintain politeness and harmony; But when facing each other, even if they were entangled in chaos and lingered to the death, subconsciously, they were cautious and distant, vigilant and vigilant.

What's more, in the face of Sheng Scar, those thoughts that are invisible to the light, she already has a guilty conscience.

……

Suddenly, the driver knocked on the door and asked where the ingredients had been delivered.

"Follow me."

Shi Xun glanced at the gloomy scars, and then looked at Xia Nianzhi, seeing that she was completely distracted, and after a few words and stopped, he took the driver away with interest, leaving a separate living room space for the two of them.

……

The intimacy of Chinese New Year's Eve was once again replaced by politeness.

The two got along alone, but Xia Nianzhi felt even more hesitant, she thought of the Sheng family's ancestral house on Chinese New Year's Eve, Sheng Zhen's sudden help - in front of everyone's eyes, the man suppressed those Sheng family members who tried to take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble with his thunderous aura, and protected her all the way until she left the Sheng family's ancestral home;

At that time, men were loud and arrogant, even though some time had passed, every time I thought about it, it was still enough to cause people to panic; Even at this time, in her living room, her territory, the man Sheng Scar can still control all her breathing.

Xia Nianzhi's mind came up with the question she had always wanted to ask, but she had time to ask in the future.

Why save me?

Even, it wasn't the first time he had come to her rescue.

The night on Marba Island, it was Sheng Scar who jumped into the sea and rescued her by himself, and a little bit of good when he was isolated can make people remember it for a lifetime.

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, those actions that Sheng Scar could not define a clear meaning always entangled her; After she was full of gratitude, when she recovered from the crisis, she was puzzled, and now it almost crushed her.

Xia Nianzhi knew that her sober mind was warning that she should continue to keep a safe distance between the two, no longer far away, not close, unclear, playing strange stalemate games, waiting like self-harm, wasting time and energy.

In the center of the living room, Sheng Scar, who was deeply trapped in the sofa, tore off his tie impatiently, twisted the top button of the neckline with two fingers, and untied it, revealing a delicate and sharp collarbone, and eagle-like sharp eyes stared at Xia Nianzhi and beckoned her to come over.

Xia Nianzhi almost wanted to cry, but it turned out that he couldn't help himself.

"I have something to say to you."

Xia Nianzhi didn't move for a long time, then turned in the opposite direction, ignited the fireplace, and in an instant the flames jumped, the light was mottled, the wood crackled when it burned, and the temperature in the room rose a little, no longer so cold, no longer so cold.

"Straight to the point."

"In the last few days, I have brought more bodyguards when I go out."

Sheng Scar's face was cold, and his tone was a little fierce.

Xia Nianzhi's intuition was to warn her, but for unknown reasons, did anyone want to do anything to her? Yu Gong, it seems that the Xia family has not offended anyone recently; Yu Private, if you have to find a suspicious object, I'm afraid it will only be Song Cheng......

Xia Nian was lazy for a while, and although he was puzzled, he didn't want to continue to guess, so he simply asked directly: "Can you give a reason?" ”

Sheng Zhen didn't seem to hear Xia Nianzhi's question, picked a cigar from the box, and played silently for a long time, until he was about to light it but was taken away, and then it was thrown into the trash can next to the coffee table without hesitation.

The knuckles of those hands are as slender and beautiful as green onions, and the dancôme is more and more enchanting.

Sheng Zhen raised his eyes, his eyes were heavy, as if he was heavy, and he wanted to probe into Xia Nianzhi's heart, Xia Nianzhi, who was staring at him, couldn't bear it, and hurriedly explained: "Smoking is harmful to your health, and I'm not very comfortable lately, and I don't want to smoke second-hand smoke." ”

After the words fell, Xia Nianzhi got up and walked to the wine cabinet, aiming for the drawer on the ground floor.

"It's fair to say for your stomach, it's pitiful to you, don't be in broad daylight, just pour wine into water."

Just when she approached Sheng Scar, the strong smell of tobacco nicotine on the man's body, mixed with the spicy and stimulating smell of alcohol, came to her nose coldly, and she didn't need to think about it to know that this man was on the wine table again.

Xia Nianzhi couldn't help frowning, in these years, if there is anything that needs to be talked about in person, I am afraid it will be a big business.

Sheng Scar's voice was low, "Are you here, care about me?" ”

"Sheng Zhen, this is also called caring, your life is really sad." Xia Nianzhi walked to the bar, poured a glass of warm water for Sheng Zhen, handed it to him along with the white medicine bottle, explained and instructed, and said: "Hangover, you can only eat two at a time, take it with water, I will make a porridge, if you are not in a hurry to leave, stay and drink some porridge to warm your stomach." ”

When the words fell, Xia Nianzhi got up to leave, but her wrist was grabbed, this time the force was no longer as heavy as before, almost crushing her wrist bone, not light or heavy, just right, enough to imprison Xia Nianzhi's departure action in place.

With such a strange gentleness, Xia Nianzhi immediately sounded the alarm and asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Xia Nianzhi, I'm going to stay with you for two days."

I'll you! For the New Year, you have to force me to pay New Year's greetings to the eighteenth generation of your Sheng family ancestors one by one, right?!

Xia Nianzhi's temper was hovering on the edge of the volcanic explosion, and even began to secretly calculate, deliberately hurting people, if the circumstances were serious, she would be sentenced to several years, but in the end, she still endured it, not for anything else, just because of the four words that Sheng Zhen said after a slight pause......

Sheng Scar's voice was deep, but it was difficult to hide the exhaustion and fatigue in it.

"I need you."

At that time, the painful memories wrapped in honey were sour, surging and almost extinction.

It seems to be an understatement, but in fact, it easily hit the softest part of Xia Nian's heart, she looked deeply at the cold and domineering between the man's eyebrows, awe-inspiring, and traced and portrayed on the tip of her heart, wanting to confirm the truth of the man's words.

However, as those eyes became more and more profound in her heart, Xia Nianzhi suddenly remembered that this situation was the same as in the past, as at the beginning, as at that time, and it was exactly the same.

This man is simply terrifying, and his ability to see through people's weaknesses is becoming more and more comfortable and to the point.

So, Sheng Zhen this time, what do you want to take from her with these four words?

Xia Nianzhi's eyes narrowed, and the mockery in his eyes could hardly be concealed, Sheng Scar, how could a character who was wise and close to a demon make such a low-level mistake, and actually thought that she would fall twice in the same place? Counting up, a famous teacher is a high-level apprentice, and he once taught her what 'reason overrides feelings', if it is still planted in his hands this time, it will not live up to the master's earnest teachings.

"Perhaps, Song Cheng, the rightful fiancée, is more worthy of your needs." Xia Nianzhi blinked, pretending to be innocent and looking at Sheng Zhen: "There are still fifty minutes of free call time left this month, do you need me to help call Song Cheng?" ”
