Chapter 39: Hugging

Joan held her breath.

What am I doing?

She squatted down and hugged her head: Qiong Yi, what are you doing unreasonably?

Why is it that when I get around him, I am so stupid?

…… I can pretend to be fine, pretend I don't care about anything, I don't know anything, but why can't I do anything when I get to him?

Sheng Xuan resented that she was squatting down, and hurriedly walked to pull her up, and Qiong also shook off his hand: "I can get up by myself, I don't need you to help me." ”

He pursed his lips and silently withdrew his hand: "Qiong Yi, what's wrong with you?" ”

Joan also raised her head and saw a pair of eyes like deep night, which were not without waves, puzzled, worried and confused, and more clearly, reflected herself.

The bright red cinnabar at the corner of his eyes was brought by her, and it made his eyebrows even more moving, like a bloody blade, with a hint of glamour in the sharpness, which actually created a delicate balance and captured people's hearts.

"Why don't you speak?" Sheng Xuanyan raised her brows slightly, and her eyelashes trembled slightly, but it was just a moment, but it made her lose her mind for a long time.

Joan also took two slow steps in front of him and stretched out her hand.

Sheng Xuan resented that she wanted to help herself, so she handed her hand over.

Unbeknownst to him, she followed his arm and fell into his arms.

Qiong Yi's breathing almost stopped, and his heart shook from his chest: ...... I must have been fascinated by him to do such a thing.

Her eyes were downcast, her hands hanging loosely, and then she cautiously reached behind him, pressing very lightly against his back.

Sheng Xuan was stunned.

He didn't move.

How dare he think that Joan would also embrace him, no one has ever told him what to do in such a situation, his brain is down for a while, and he doesn't know what to do.

“…… Joan also? ”

Joan also gave a soft "um" on his chest.

Sheng Xuan's hands that had nowhere to put seemed a little restrained, almost instinctive, and he wrapped his arms around her and hugged her into his arms a little.

The young man's body is not yet mature, but his shoulders are open enough, his arms are warm, and the cold and indifferent pine fragrance is as long as a dream, like falling dewdrops, and there is only a drop of water after sinking into the ground, and there is no water when he wakes up.

Joan also closed her eyes and whispered in her heart: If only it were a dream.

Sheng Xuan's eyes were half-lowered, he smelled the faint fragrance of flowers on her body, if there was nothing, it was clear and sweet, he didn't know why she did this, he just felt the sound of a warm heartbeat, and thought that his heart jumped from his chest to his stomach.

She was really small, hugging her in front of her, like a thin and soft willow branch, and like a bird with folded wings.

"Sheng Hao ......"

Qiong also did not let go, but raised his head slightly in his arms, Sheng Xuanyan let go of his arm, too close, his eyes were too close, her bright eyes were round and bright, and her face was like a pink apricot, so that he did not dare to look at each other.

"I ...... Not happy. She whispered, "Can you smile at me?" ”

Although this voice was deliberately suppressed by her, it had a bit of coquettish taste, Sheng Xuan was sluggish, his heart was pounding, and he was almost full of response: "Okay." ”

With that, he lifted the corners of his lips slightly, revealing a somewhat stiff and standard smile, "Is that okay?" ”

Qiong Yi let go of the hand around his waist: "Laugh again." ”

Sheng Xuan looked at her resentfully, paused for half a breath, and showed a slight but fleeting smile.

Joan was also stunned to look at his smile that agreed to his nonsensical request, when he was not smiling, his face was like a cold moon, and when he raised his lips and bent his eyelashes, he dispersed like a nebula.

Sheng Hao, why can he always come to save me in time?

Once or twice is accidental, but the further you go, can you still use chance to make sense?

Isn't it obvious enough to respond to your own words and look at them all over the place?

Joan also seemed to understand a little.

"Is it okay?" He asked.

"That's it." She glanced away and said.

Sheng Xuan's brows furrowed slightly, Qiong Yi's thoughts he had never been sure about, but it was true that she was so coaxing, as long as she came according to her wishes, ten out of ten bags would be dissipated.

Joan also tried to return to Fang Cai's frustrated hug: "I'm too sad to be like this, don't care." ”

Without a trace, he asked, "Then will you do the same to others?" ”

She blurted out, "No." ”

Sheng Xuan complained "um", and his ears began to heat and burn red: "Why are you suddenly unhappy?" ”

"I can't use my true anger." Qiong also hung his head and tricked him into almost catching him: "I wanted to practice spells in the courtyard just now, and I found that my true qi was like someone had sealed it." ”

"I'm afraid this is the poison I had last night, and I don't know if it's a side effect or the effect of the poison. Sheng Hao, I'm worried, I'm afraid that this poison won't be cured, Su Changming and he will ...... me In that case, I am afraid that he will find me again and threaten me......"

At the mention of Su Changming, Sheng Xuanyan remembered his disgusting face, remembered his greedy and obscene gaze, he didn't want to see this person still have the slightest covetousness for Qiong Yi, for a moment, he hoped that she would always stay by his side, so that she would not be touched by anyone.

Sheng Xuanyan stretched out his hand to check her pulse, but he didn't detect anything abnormal, and his face was a little dark, last night he could still detect that she had been poisoned by a similar soft tendon, but now he can't detect anything. "No, don't worry, I won't let him touch you again." He withdrew his hand to probe the pulse and said firmly: "This poison is very strange, I don't know at the moment, but I will figure it out and detoxify it for you." ”

"Hmm." She said, "I believe in you." ”

The girl's unique and agile voice was particularly good, and she thought to herself: Sheng Hao won't notice that I'm pretending to be afraid.

Of all the things in this world, except for ghosts and evils, she has almost nothing to fear, not to mention fear of Su Changming, all of them are anger and disgust.

Sheng Xuan's mind was not so delicate, Qiong also said so, he thought so, although her expression was not as flustered as when she saw the sneaky, but he was not suspicious.

Joan is just hiding his careful thoughts with his clumsy acting skills, and wants him to accompany him for a longer time under the pretext of protection.

What she wasn't sure about was that Sheng Xuan was so resentful that she relied on it.

"I want to go to Wa Village to settle accounts with Wei Ying now, but I haven't cultivated my body, can you accompany me on a trip?" She added: "We will walk around the path, and others will not find out that we are happy." ”

Hearing that Qiong also said that he was going to settle the account, Sheng Xuan straightened his expression and immediately said, "Go, I'll accompany you." ”

Wa Village.

Coming to the small mud house sheltered by the fence again, Joan also walked in alone, but saw a thin figure half a person tall flash from behind the door, and leaned over to her and hugged her.

"Sister Lu!" Wei Xinxin's nose and eyes were red and swollen: "Sister Lu, where have you been, Sister A, she is gone, ...... last night Last night she said yes to pick me up, I waited for a long, long time, but I couldn't wait for her...... When I walked to the tea house to find my sister, I saw ......"

As she spoke, her immature voice sobbing and sobbing, "I see...... A lot of people with knives...... I saw a lot of blood ......."

Qiong Yi was first shocked by her outburst action, and then reacted, lowered her eyes, and touched her little head: "Xiaoxin, hasn't your sister come back until now?" ”

Wei Xinxin shook her head.

"Did she say anything to you?" Joan also asked, "I told you not to run around or something." ”

"Sister only said that I should wait for her at home, and if she doesn't come, I will stay at home and wait." She replied, "I'm so scared...... I'm afraid that those bad guys with knives in the village will hurt my sister, Sister Lu, did you see her last night? Where is she? ”

"I didn't see her, and I came to find her."

"That'...... So what to do? Sister, she originally told me that she would take me to a far place, and said that there was a good brother who had completed all our registrations, and she would leave soon......" Wei Xinxin lowered her head and wiped her tears, and took out a finely woven grass bracelet from her arms, "I want to ...... If I leave, I will never see everyone in the village again, and I will never see Sister Lu again, so I made a bracelet and wanted to give it to my sister ......"

After that, she handed the grass ring to Qiong Yi, and Qiong Yi took it over and squatted down: "Xiaoxin, thank you, you are a good boy." She smiled lightly and was very gentle, "If your sister can't take you out of Wa Village, will you be sad?" ”

Wei Xinxin shook her head: "I just want Sister A's good ......"

Joan was silent for a long time: "Okay, I know." ”

Sheng Xuan, who was standing outside and waiting for a while, saw that she finally walked out of the door, and stepped forward to ask, "Wei Ying is not here?" ”

"Not there." Qiong also lowered her voice: "I've investigated, it's impossible for her to hide here, and Xiao Xin isn't lying." ”

Sheng Xuanren suddenly asked, "Do you really think Su Changming will help her redeem herself?" ”

"Probably not." She thought instantly: "Su Changming is very likely to be lying to her, so she didn't go back to the village, but was taken back to Yunliang Pavilion?" ”

"Let's go there."

Seeing Sheng Xuan's resentment turn around and leave, Qiong also grabbed him: "Sheng Hao, that's a Qinglou!" You want...... Go? ”

"It's okay, we're here to investigate." When he said this, his face was full of righteousness.

Yunliang Pavilion.

Soon in the morning, on the cloudy streets, the food stalls were opening vigorously, but the gate of the Hualou Pavilion was half-covered, and occasionally one or two people with sleeping faces walked out, and they were all men who left to leave.

Sheng Xuanyan pushed open the door and walked straight inside, startled a man who had just come out of the attic raised his sleeves and scolded and said: What kind of person! Rushing in early in the morning with a weapon, scared people to death!

The woman in red leaning on the handrail of the balcony saw someone coming, let go of the hair she was playing with, and twisted her waist and walked over: "Childe, why did you come so early?" ”

Joan has also seen this person, she is the Rou'er who invited herself and her younger siblings into the house that night.

Rou'er looked at Sheng Xuan's resentment, picked up the corners of her lips that were smeared with bright lipstick, and said secretly: What a handsome son, this eyebrows, eyes, and posture, I have never seen such a man with such a stunning appearance.

Thinking about it, he walked straight to him, and reached out to wrap his arm: "Childe, what a face, you want to be a ...... child."

Sheng Xuan resented the Chengying Sword: "Don't move." ”

Rou'er's eyes widened, and the flattering and delicate smile on her face still lingered: "Childe, what are you...... What to do? This sword can't be real, right? It's so majestic, can you let Rou'er see it? As she spoke, her peach-dyed fingers brushed over the already transparent gauze skirt, making her figure even more slender, convex and backward, her hair beside her ears and her eyebrows were affectionate, which was naked teasing and seduction.

Last time, when Qiong Yi brought Lu Li here, she had already seen this Rou'er's good ability to speak softly and coquettishly, at that time she only thought it was good-looking, and it was a little funny, but now when she saw Rou'er behaving like this in front of Sheng Xuan's resentment, she actually had a fire in her belly.

Sheng Xuan didn't know what this woman was doing, so he held his sword in front of him and said coldly: "Get out." ”
