Chapter 23: Romance
I leaned closer to Chu Nantang, and my heart was warm.
"It's good if we just hold hands and keep going, with no end."
Chu Nantang looked worried: "Then we may have to sleep in the open." ”
I looked at him angrily: "Mr. Chu, can't you fantasize about some beautiful things?" For example, if you are with me, you will feel happy, I just don't want to be separated from you. ”
"Well, wonderful...... At the end of this road, there is a paradise where we will live happily ever after. ”
I let out a long sigh: "Mr. Chu, you are not romantic at all. ”
"Really?" He thought about it seriously and admitted, "Ah, it seems to be so! ”
There is an inexplicable cuteness about this man's hindsight, and perhaps what I once thought was unromantic has become the most romantic thing after many years.
When I returned to the villa, it was not early, and when I entered the hall, I saw Mr. Shen with a solemn face, slightly hanging his head and holding his hands on his chest, thinking about something.
When he heard the footsteps, he subconsciously raised his head, and when he saw me, he was visibly relieved.
"Why did you come back so late? I asked Weber to look everywhere and you couldn't find it. ”
He got up and walked up to me, caressing my hair, and the tenderness in his eyes seemed to overflow.
At that time, at the age of fifteen, he had already understood something.
So he dodged Mr. Shen's touch, his smile froze on his face, and he said in a very tired tone: "Leave dinner in the kitchen, it's still hot, go eat it." ”
"Thank you, Mr. Shen."
"Lingsheng."
"Is there anything else wrong with Mr. Shen?" I paused and looked back at him.
He stared at me for a long time, then shook his head: "It's okay, it's okay......"
When I finished eating, Mr. Shen was still in the hall, working with documents in his hand.
"Full?" He asked with a smile on his face.
I wiped the corners of my mouth a little uncomfortably, and nodded: "Mr. Shen, I'll go back to the room first......"
"Don't worry, come and sit down and chat." He put down the papers in his hand and ordered Weber to bring a cup of coffee and a glass of milk.
I sat down across the sofa and took a sip of milk, as there always seemed to be a gap between me and Mr. Shen that could never be crossed.
is full of respect and love for Mr. Shen, and this feeling is different from when Chu Nantang was together.
Being with Chu Nantang makes people feel very safe and relaxed, and they want to stay together all the time. But in the face of Mr. Shen, I will feel pressured and uncomfortable.
"Are you still used to school life?"
I secretly took a deep breath, and the milk in the cup was already at the bottom: "Well, I will have a good relationship with my classmates." ”
Mr. Shen looked at me with a helpless look in his eyes: "On the contrary, I think of how you looked when you first saw me, and you will not be as angry as you are now." ”
I pursed my lips and lowered my head and didn't know what to say, Mr. Shen finally stood up and said, "Go back to your room and rest, it's really not early, but you can't come back so late tomorrow." ”
"I see, good night Mr. Shen."
"Good night."
As I passed by Yanzhi's room, I paused, and after thinking about it, I had to forget it.
Just as I was about to leave, the room was opened, and my eyes met in the cool air, her hateful eyes staring at me in a daze.
"Oh, there is no deep hatred between us."
She sneered, lowered her voice and said, "Your appearance is here to take away everything from me, why isn't it a deep hatred?!" ”
"I never thought about taking anything away from you."
"I don't believe it!"
"It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, but I hope you don't tease me like that in the future, because I'm still worried about you."
"You ......" Yan Zhi glared at me, and turned his face awkwardly: "I don't want you to worry, you take care of yourself." Don't think I'm going to be soft-hearted if you say that! Zhang Lingsheng, let me tell you, I will definitely drive you out of Mr. Shen's villa! ”
I ignored her and went straight back to my room, a little disappointed.
Chu Nantang suddenly appeared and sat beside me: "There's nothing to be sad about." ”
I said, "It's not that I'm sad, I just feel helpless, it turns out that in this world, it's not that if you are good to others, others will be good to you." ”
"You are really a worried little fool, how can grandma rest assured that she will hand you over to Shen Qiushui? You are still too simple, and you will understand when you meet all kinds of people in the future. ”
"No matter what, I won't hurt anyone."
Chu Nantang sighed, took the unfinished book on the desk and flipped through it: "You can't have the heart of harming people, and you can't have the heart of preventing people!" ”
"Mr. Chu, how are we going to investigate that matter?"
He looked up from the book, thought for a while, and said, "I heard that someone disappeared back then, so let's find out the identity of the missing person first." Tomorrow morning, we will go there early, and first set up a formation in front of the abandoned dormitory building to temporarily contain the unjust soul. ”
"Hmm!"
Early the next morning, I hurriedly ate breakfast and went out, and I didn't go out with my sister-in-law. A shrewd person like Mr. Shen probably saw that the relationship between me and Changzhi was not as good as it seemed.
So I didn't bother to cooperate with Yan Zhi's disguise anymore, and when I arrived there with Chu Nantang, I saw a boy sneakily looking outside.
I was about to walk over, but Chu Nantang stopped me: "Let's see what's going on." ”
After a while, the boy took out a few red characters on a yellow background from his schoolbag and walked around the abandoned dormitory building to paste them.
Chu Nantang raised his eyebrows and took the lead in speaking: "The power of this talisman is very weak, not only can it not suppress the unjust soul, but it will stimulate her anger!" ”
"Huh...... You know a! The boy looked back with contempt, and then froze in place, his talisman scattered all over the ground.
"You...... You, you, you......"
I was very surprised: "Mr. Chu, can he see you?" ”
"It's a kid with an open eye, and he's a bit of a Taoist." Chu Nantang walked slowly to him, and with a hook of his fingertips, the spell on the ground floated up and fell into his hand out of thin air.
The boy noticed the string of beads in Chu Nantang's hand, and asked incredulously: "This bead is the soul bead?" ”
"Oh? You have good eyesight, and you can actually recognize this magic weapon. With a look of disgust, he returned the talisman in his hand to him.
Who knew that this boy was so excited that he knelt down with a 'plop', and even Chu Nantang was stunned.
"Young man, why did you kneel while talking?"
"Grandpa! I, I am the fourth generation disciple of the Nameless Dao, Bai Yiqing. ”
Chu Nantang finally looked at the young man in front of him carefully, took a breath, and sighed: "The Nameless Dao has fallen so far!" ”
"Uh......" Bai Yiqing blinked, crying and laughing: "It is true that many spells and charms have been lost, and my parents feel that superstition is unethical, I am holding a secret biography handed down by my ancestors and studying it for several years!" ”
