Chapter 50: Temptation
The two looked at each other for a while, and Shang Xi, who came back to her senses, lowered her eyes a little embarrassed, she was already embarrassed to throw herself into Gu Qiannian's arms again, after all, she had come to her senses.
Her stomach rumbled twice, she had slept all day, and now she woke up in the middle of the night, she was really hungry.
Gu Xinian stood up and went outside to tell the slave maid to go to the kitchen to prepare food, and when she came back, Shi Xi was still sitting on the bed in a daze, just staring at him intently.
"What's wrong?" He asked as he sat down next to her again.
"When did you come here? Haven't you slept all the time? I secretly wondered if he had been sitting next to her and watching her sleep, otherwise he would have come running so quickly and neatly dressed.
"Just after the hour, I heard your voice here, so I came to take a look."
It turned out that it was not too late, she was thinking too much, who would sit next to a sleeping person like a fool.
"Does it still hurt?"
Suddenly asked this, she immediately felt it, tried to move her body, it seemed that it really didn't hurt anymore, and she hadn't felt any pain just now.
"It doesn't hurt anymore, it doesn't hurt anymore." To avoid him worrying about himself, Shang Xi immediately stretched his arm to prove that he was not in pain, but suddenly thought of his special physique, and asked in a low voice: "Is it because of my special physique that I recovered so quickly?" ”
"Hmm." He nodded, not saying anything more.
"Then when did you find out that I have a special constitution?" He didn't say anything, but she became curious and asked in a whisper.
She doesn't know anything about her body, it's really too undeserved, it's too dangerous, fortunately, she has been following Gu in the past for so many years, she has been safe and secure, she doesn't want people to know that she has a special physique, whoever is sick will ask her for blood, and when her blood is not drained, people will die of pain first.
Seeing that she was holding her ears and looking like she was going to listen to him carefully, a pair of black and shiny eyes seemed to be shining like starlight, he opened his eyes slightly, and said: "I found out when I saved you, at that time you were covered in wounds, but it only took three days for all the injuries on your body to heal, and the wounds were gone." ”
Covered in wounds? She was stunned for a moment, she didn't know what happened in the past, she only knew that she was rescued by Gu Xinian, and for a while, she only recognized Gu Qiannian, and only listened to him, and no one mentioned it to her after she was covered in injuries, and she didn't think about it.
It is said that she was only eight or nine years old when she was rescued, right? What god would be so ruthless to hurt her as a child?? This thought flashed in her head, and soon she left it behind, she was not very happy to think about these questions that she couldn't figure out, not to mention that she was now living very happily with Gu in the past.
After so many years, no one has come to her, she is sure that she is an orphan, if there are parents, how can it be that parents will not come to her.
She didn't want to think too much about many meaningless assumptions, and she was content to have everything she had now.
She pouted lightly and said with a slight self-deprecation: "I guess I must have been abducted by human traffickers, and then I ran away, so people were injured." ”
"Possibly." He made peace, and she felt a little unhappy in her heart, and said: "Maybe it was His Royal Highness of a certain country who let people chase and kill, and finally killed me in the wilderness, but I didn't expect that I was saved and survived." ”
His eyes moved slightly, he raised his hand, pinched her slightly puffed little face, and said, "Everything is possible." ”
His face was lightly touched by him, and the unhappiness in his heart immediately receded, and he inexplicably felt that Gu had a little more body movements towards her today, which made her full of joy and blush.
Under the flickering candlelight, she looked at him with flashing eyes, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and she actually saw the word amorous in his eyebrow raising action.
He turned his face slightly, and even the appearance of the side face was impeccable.
She had no idea how dangerous it was for her to peep at a man so blushingly and shyly and boldly, but she quickly walked in and brought the food to her in the autumn and winter.
"Put it all on the table." Gu had already stood up and commanded outward.
Shang Xi was also busy getting up from the bed, since she had already said that she was not in pain, she was embarrassed to pretend to be in pain and lie on the bed to let Gu Xinian continue to feed her, although she really wanted to do this!
Over there, there was the sound of Gu Qiannian ordering the bath water to be prepared in autumn and winter, Shang Xi couldn't help but look at her clothes, she did sweat a lot just now, she looked down and smelled it, it didn't seem to smell too much!! I felt as if I was disgusted, after all, I hugged him just now, and I was slightly frustrated.
Turning around, she turned over a clean set of clothes and came out, intending to change into herself.
She knew that Gu loved to be clean in the past, and when he didn't want to eat, he smelled the sweat on his body and felt unbearable, guessing that he must have taken care of her injuries before he didn't push her away at once, and put up with her for so long, which made her self-esteem somewhat hit.
She took off her clothes quite self-consciously and was ready to put on the clean ones first, but she didn't think that Gu Qiannian suddenly walked in, and what caught her eyes was that touch of snow white, his eyes tightened slightly, and he turned sideways, but his feet were fixed there without moving.
Shang Xi's movements were also fast, she put on her clothes neatly, and smelled it again, as if there was no smell of sweat, and she couldn't smell it without taking a bath, and she exhaled to her hand in her mouth, and smelled it, as if the smell was not big, and it was acceptable.
Then I looked at my face on the mirror, I slept for a day, my hair was messy, because I didn't wash my face, I felt that my face was dirty, how to look at it, I was suddenly annoyed, I was busy with a comb to sort out my hair first, and then I walked out, and when I saw Gu Xinian standing at the door of her inner room, I didn't want him to see my unwashed face, so I lowered my head and said, "I want to wash before eating." ”
Since this is the case, Gu Qiannian also ordered: "Fetch water." ”
Autumn and winter soon brought water in, Gu Qiannian sat on the side and watched her carefully wash her face, wipe her ears, neck, and rinse her mouth, and after sitting all this, she came to him and sat down at the dining table.
The girl in front of her was looking forward to it, her peach cheeks were smiling, her black hair was tied up with a hairpin, she sat there reservedly, shy and happy, she looked at the dishes in front of her, her appetite suddenly opened, anyway, it was prepared for her, she took the chopsticks in front of her and said to him glutinously: "I'm going to eat." He opened his mouth and stuffed a small piece of duck meat into his mouth, it was so delicious, I couldn't wait to close the whole one and eat the meat, but when I saw Gu Qiannian sitting in front of him, how could I dare to have such a demeanor, I was afraid that I would be disgusted by him.
She ate to her heart's content, with big eyes and a delicate smile, looking at the water and mist, and her small mouth opened and closed, as if attracting a kiss to Fangze, but in a blink of an eye, she ate a roast duck and ate most of the belly, and the man in front of her sat nobly, did not move a chopstick, just slowly drank tea, and occasionally glanced at her.
Shang Xi paused for a moment, looked at the roast duck in front of her, and then looked at Gu Qiannian, her heart moved slightly, she was slightly bold and felt that Gu Qiannian's attitude towards her seemed to have changed a little, and she couldn't tell what it felt like to change, but she liked it, so she tentatively made a bold gesture, picked up the cut roast duck and dipped it in sweet sauce and sent it to him and said, "It's delicious, you eat a piece." ”
There was sweetness in her voice, crispy like a bell, soft and glutinous, like coquettish and like scratching people's hearts, itchy, Gu was drinking tea in the past, but she didn't expect her to reach out and hand the meat to him.
