Chapter 149: Women Are Like Fire
It's like watching a big opera and people disperse, and the carriage stops at the bottom of Wanhuan again, and it is already late at night.
Lu Ran turned over and got out of the carriage, still feeling a little cold.
An indescribable coldness that starts from the soles of the feet and rises all over the body.
This coldness came from the fact that on the way back, he pondered the death of the Fire Fairy and the Master of the Undeceived Master, and the more he thought about it, the more sad he felt.
The other ninety percent are all from Xu Fu.
Xu Fu's flickering heat and coldness, he had already understood it, but this time this outright coldness almost immediately froze Lu Ran.
Since Xu Fu got into the carriage, she has been pinning her head to the side and has not said a word.
Lu Ran also accosted her at the beginning, asking her why she was leaving suddenly, asking her what she thought of the banquet, or seeing that she didn't answer, he deliberately asked some irrelevant questions.
Xu Fu didn't move, and at first blinked and looked out the window, and soon, she closed her eyes and pretended to take a nap.
The unsolved mystery in Lu Ran's heart, with the rolling of the wheels under him, turned into two after a few turns.
One is the old question, why didn't Xu Fu listen to the truth she wanted to hear the most and leave in a hurry?
One is a new question, I haven't offended her from beginning to end, why did she suddenly do this to me?
After thinking of countless answers in my heart, I felt unsatisfactory, but at this time, Lu Ran, in this small space, no one responded, no one confirmed, no one chattered in my ear, and I kept talking.
Lu Ran, who easily felt that he had a companion, suddenly felt that he had fallen into a long-lost isolation.
Lu Ran soon felt a little tired, but his heart was hung like this, and he couldn't close his eyes, and he rested for a while.
It's like going to prison, the more you sit, the colder it gets, and in the end, Lu Ran can't help but think, I always heard people say "a woman's heart, a needle under the sea", is this what it means?
Lu Ran's feeling was really a bit like jumping into the turbid sea that day and slowly sinking into the deepest part of the seabed.
It's stuffy, it hurts, it's cold.
There were countless cold needles as thin as hair, and they were on the seat of this carriage, which could not be seen or touched, but when they sat on it, they felt uncomfortable.
So Lu Ran, who had always felt that he was very good at "holding on", didn't stop the car, so he flew down and quickly took a breath of warm air outside the carriage.
"Hey, it's here." Lu Ran turned around and said casually as if nothing had happened.
Xu Fu slowly got out of the car with an expressionless face, without looking at Lu Ran, and walked directly to the front hall of Wanhuan Building.
"See you tomorrow, then!" Lu Ran waved silently behind Xu Fu and greeted warmly.
He wanted to keep her down and ask her clearly, but he really couldn't stand it, he couldn't stand this cold.
It was so cold that he felt like the one in his chest was about to be extinguished.
Fortunately, Xu Fu didn't look back, nor did she stop, she took three steps and made two steps, and finally turned into a red mist, and disappeared in front of Lu Ran's eyes.
"She must be too tired, and with her character, she will come looking for me again tomorrow morning."
Lu Ran finally comforted himself like this, and took a few more breaths of hot air at the door, and then dragged his tired steps back to his room.

The next two days are rest days, and the second round of re-election of Huantian Dajiao is scheduled for the 90th floor of Wanhuan Building three days later.
Lu Ran opened his eyes again, it was already a sunny noon, Xu Fu didn't come, he didn't remember when he fell asleep last night, only the red robe with exaggerated colors and styles on his body was still on his body, Lu Ran reached out and touched it, fortunately, at least the clothes were warm.
It's summer, after all.
Lu Ran got up, went to get some water to wash up, changed his clothes, took out his half bag of iron flowers, and fiddled with them at the table, paying attention to the movement outside the door while playing, waiting for Xu Fu to come to her.
waited until the sun set, and didn't wait for Xu Fu to come, but waited for another person.
Chu Yi, the No. 182 contestant in Huantian Dajiao, rubbed his hands, twisted his woman's skin, and knocked on Lu Ran's door with a happy face.
"Let's go, go drinking?"
"Let's go." Lu Ran touched his stomach, it was already empty, and said in his heart, Xu Fu, Xu Fu, I have been waiting for you for a day, you can no longer blame me.
The two of them went together, and came to the nameless wine shop, and after sitting down, Xiao Er came to ask: "Two guest officers, what kind of wine do you drink today?" โ
"Still bitter dew?" Chu Yi raised his eyebrows and asked Lu Ran.
"Shopkeeper, do you have any stronger, hotter wine in your store?" It seems that Lu Ran not only remembers the coldness of last night, but even after a sleep, the coldness in his heart has not been eliminated.
"Of course there is, my Jueying City is a big city dedicated to the fire lady, there is a kind of wine in our store, known as the first fierce in the south, it is brewed by a true immortal in the city, called the fire burning, but this is the wine of the immortals, and the price is a little ......."
"Just on it!" After Lu Ran finished saying three words, there was also a large stack of money tickets on the table.
Looking at Xiao Er and walking away flatteringly, Chu Yi saw Lu Ran's thoughts, stretched out the plush hand that didn't look like a woman, patted Lu Ran's shoulder, and asked, "What's the matter?" Didn't you go to the fairy's dinner with the fairy last night? What happened? Your face is like a cabbage with frost in winter. โ
Of course, Lu Ran couldn't tell Chu Yi everything he saw and heard last night, so he said a few perfunctory words, saying that the immortal's dinner party could only be said to be perfect, probably because he drank two more cups yesterday, and he hadn't sobered up today.
"Then what kind of Southern No. 1 martyr do you order?" Chu Yi retracted his hand and touched his chin that was not long now, "Since there is no problem with the dinner, it is because of the Yufu Fairy, what's wrong, you two quarreled?" โ
"Who...... Who is the younger couple with him......" Lu Ran's face was like a frosted cabbage, "but it's really with ...... It has something to do with her. โ
"Hey, this woman is the most troublesome, always delaying us men to do big things." Chu Yi sat one foot on the bench very habitually, completely forgetting that he was now a daughter.
"Master Chu, you are also a person who has lived hundreds or thousands of years, there is something I have thought about and thought, but I can't figure it out, I don't know if Master Chu can give me some guidance." Lu Ran didn't want to open this mouth, but he felt really bored in his heart, if he didn't find someone to say a few words, he would be alone tonight, I was afraid that he would toss and turn again, thinking about it all night.
"If you ask the woman...... Woman...... That's right, this woman...... Just like ...... It's like ......" Chu Yi grabbed a handful of peanuts on the table, chewed it in his mouth, and looked around with his eyes, trying to find a suitable word to describe it.
The shopkeeper turned back at this time, holding a few pots of red bottles of wine on the tray in his hand.
The aroma of wine was far away, and it had already wafted into the noses of the two.
"Yes, yes, womanโlike this wine, it's called Fire! Woman for the fire! โ
At this moment, Chu Yi's eyes were straight, and he took a bottle of "The No. 1 Spirits in the South" from the tray, and without waiting to pour it into the cup, he took a big sip of the bottle.
