Chapter 180: Closeness

Zhong Qingzhu slowly raised his head and looked at her, only to see that Ling Chunni's face was not different, and his expression was calm, as if he had just casually asked an ordinary question. She was silent for a while, and then her lips moved slightly and she was about to answer, when suddenly Ling Chunni raised her head, her face showed a little annoyance, she shook her head with a little apology, and smiled at Zhong Qingzhu:

"Oh, I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing again. Saying that, she sighed and said, "Miss Qingzhu, don't care, I'm sometimes stupid, so I can say some stupid things." If you hadn't saved me a few times yesterday, I would have fallen into the hands of the Beast Alliance, so what else can I ask if I don't die?"

Zhong Qingzhu glanced deeply at the woman in front of him, and after a moment of silence, he said softly, "It's okay." ”

Ling Chunni smiled and stretched out her hand, grabbed Zhong Qingzhu's palm, and said with a smile: "In short, the two of us can be regarded as having spent a life and death together by chance, but I don't know if you are willing to appreciate your face and be friends with me......?" Hmm, is that okay?"

Zhong Qingzhu was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect Ling Chunni to suddenly say such a thing, but she looked at Ling Chunni at this time, and saw that this woman was plump and charming, and with every word, smile and every move, a soft beauty that seemed to come from nature naturally came out, not to mention a man, it was Zhong Qingzhu, who was a woman, was a little moved at this moment.

There was a sudden heartache in her heart for no reason, and for a moment, she thought blankly in her heart: no wonder, no wonder he liked this woman, or perhaps, is this the woman he liked......

She was a little stunned for a while, and didn't speak, but Ling Chunni was a little misunderstood, with a little shame and disappointment, bowed her head slightly, and said in a low voice: "Uh, I'm sorry, it's me who is abrupt." Qingzhu girl, you are from everyone, and you are a personal disciple of Lingxiao Sect, you have a bright future, I, I am really ...... Don't be angry, just because I didn't say ......."

Before the last word "pass" could be spoken, Zhong Qingzhu had already come back to his senses, shook his head and interrupted Ling Chunni's words, and said, "It's not like that, we...... You can be friends. Saying that, she smiled, and there seemed to be a little helplessness in her smile, and said, "What family background, what status, in fact, my background when I was a child may not be much better than yours." ”

Ling Chunni suddenly smiled, obviously very happy to be friends with Zhong Qingzhu, and suddenly became a little more intimate when talking to her, and although Zhong Qingzhu was not very accustomed to Ling Chunni's cordiality at first, but after a period of small talk, gradually his impression of Ling Chunni changed slightly, and he found that this girl didn't seem to be exactly the same as what he thought before, and in her words, she actually talked to herself.

Or maybe I don't really have many real friends?

In this way, Ling Chunni sat on the edge of Zhong Qingzhu's bed and talked to her for a while, and the two gradually got to know each other better, but after a while, Zhong Qingzhu suddenly felt something, lowered his head slightly, and found that one of Ling Chunni's palms was still holding his right hand, and the slightest strangeness came from her hand.

Zhong Qingzhu frowned, looked up at Ling Chunni, and said, "Chunni, your hands are so cold." ”

Ling Chunni was stunned, and hurriedly withdrew his hand from Zhong Qingzhu's palm, and said with a somewhat apologetic smile: "Oh, I forgot about this, I didn't cold you, right?"

Zhong Qingzhu shook his head, looked at Ling Chunni's eyes with a little more doubt, and said, "I remember last night, when I thought your body and palms were very cold, I thought you were frightened at that time, why are you still like this?" She looked at Ling Chunni's clothes and said, "Is it cold?"

Ling Chunni smiled and rubbed the palms of his hands together, then put them to his mouth and sighed, and said with a smile: "No, I'm fine, I don't have any illness or pain on my body, I was born like this." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to Zhong Qingzhu and said with a smile, "You touch it now, is it a little hotter again?"

Zhong Qingzhu stretched out her hand and gently held Ling Chunni's palm, only to feel that the skin on her palm was indeed a little warmer than just now, but that trace of warmth was so fragile that it still couldn't hide the deeper layer of cold, like water, like ice.

Zhong Qingzhu held her hand and paused for a moment, then said with a smile: "Well, I do feel much better." ”

Ling Chunni smiled, with a little gentle and cunning pride on his face, and was about to say something more, when suddenly from the courtyard outside their house, a familiar man's voice came, with a little eagerness and anxiety, and shouted loudly:

"Chunni, Chunni, are you here?"

Inside and outside the bed, the two women were shocked at the same time.

Ling Chunni jumped up suddenly, at that moment it seemed that a brilliance bloomed from her face, the whole person brightened up a little, that joy and that smile, like a flower suddenly blooming.

She turned around suddenly, ran towards the door quickly, opened the door, and the light outside the house sprinkled down, only to see that in the courtyard outside the house, on the bluestone road, a man stood there and turned his head to see that it was Shen Shi.

"Stone!"

Ling Chunni cheered and jumped out, his expression was excited and joyful, and even a little mist suddenly appeared in his eyes, and Shen Shi also strode over immediately after seeing Ling Chunni. The two met on the road in the small courtyard, Ling Chunni pounced with a smile, and Shen Shi opened his arms and hugged her, finally relieved and laughed out loud.

Snuggled in that familiar and warm embrace, Ling Chunni instantly felt a special satisfaction and steadfastness, as if the thoughts of these days were thrilling, and suddenly became unimportant at this moment, as long as ...... To be in his arms, it is enough.

She closed her eyes with a smile, hugged Shen Shi's waist tightly with both hands, and pressed herself close to his body as if she were a little greedy, to breathe in the warm breath of his body. And Shen Shi also smiled and hugged her, gently touched her long hair, and patted her back.

After whispering a few words, he looked up by chance, and suddenly he was stunned.

I saw that at the end of the stone path in front of me, in the east wing, on the bed in the open door, there was an injured and slightly haggard woman leaning on the bed, her face pale, and she watched this scene from that side in a daze.

In a place where no one could see, her drooping palm quietly grabbed the corner of her cloak and slowly clenched it until the knuckles turned white and sank deep into her skin.

※※※

After a long absence, there was such a dangerous thing in the middle, and it was almost separated by yin and yang and never seen again, both Shen Shi and Ling Chunni were a little afraid. But it's okay, it seems that everything is quite stable at the moment, Shen Shi first came in and thanked Zhong Qingzhu, and then asked her about her injury, Zhong Qingzhu looked as indifferent as usual, and only said that he was fine.

Shen Shi arrived here in a hurry, and as soon as he came, he was in a hurry to come over to see the two of them, although there were still a lot of questions in his heart to tell these two women at this moment, including how Ling Chunni was doing, how Zhong Qingzhu's injuries were, and why Zhong Qingzhu appeared in that secluded hut, but now was not the time for him to talk in detail, because when he arrived at the Xu family, he still had to go and meet several senior heads of the Xu family first, after all, they really relied on them to save Ling Chunni and Zhong Qingzhu this time, it was really a good relationship.

So after seeing Ling Chunni and Zhong Qingzhu and confirming that the two of them were indeed safe, Shen Shi said a few words to them, and then turned back to the living room of the front hall of the Xu family again, where Xu Teng was already waiting for him.

The two sat down, thanking and laughing, Xu Teng was very friendly to this young man, and he didn't see any arrogant momentum at all, and told Shen Shi in detail about the situation last night, and finally said with a little concern, and said: "Brother Shen, you also understand the current situation, no need for me to say more, that Ling girl had better live here first recently, first, to recuperate, and secondly, to be safe, and to avoid being found by the villain of the Beast Alliance." ”

Shen Shi pondered for a moment, but he was not hypocritical, nodded his head, hugged his fists and said: "This will disturb Senior Xu, such kindness, Shen Shi will definitely be rewarded in the future." ”

Xu Teng laughed, waved his hand and said: "Brother Shen is too polite, but it's just a gesture, in addition, the beast alliance hurt my third brother first, and our Xu family was about to deal with them, this time is just a beginning, and then we have to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, expel this group of evildoers from Liuyun City, and return this city to a prosperous place." ”

Shen Shi's heart moved, and he thought for a while: "Senior, if this is the case, maybe you can do a little bit of your best in the future, and it can be regarded as repaying your family's kindness for helping." ”

Xu Teng shook his head with a smile, stretched out his hand to signal him to sit down, and said with a smile: "Jumping beam clown, Brother He Laoshen, your big driver, you don't have to." ”

Shen Shi pleaded several times, Xu Teng just smiled and excused himself, and only let Shen Shi and Ling Chunni and others rest here, Shen Shi had no choice but to accept his kindness, and at the same time said that if there is a place to get him, please don't be polite.

After this narrative conversation, the relationship between the two felt a lot closer, Shen Shi sat for a while, then got up to say goodbye, and then went to the back house to visit Xu Xing. After being injured and damaged before, Xu Xing's whole person looked a lot older, but his spirit was not bad, and he was very happy to see Shen Shi coming, and he talked to him for a while, and finally said to him that Shen Shi didn't need to interfere in dealing with the Beast Alliance, and the Xu family would naturally handle it, and the words inadvertently revealed that the Xu family had been low-key for too long, and if he could show his fangs strength well this time, he could also let other families in Liuyun City see it clearly.

At this point, Xu Xing also smiled and praised Shen Shi a few times, only saying that Shen Shi has a great future, and the Xu family is also happy here, after all, they are all friends. Shen Shi agreed with a smile, sat like this for a while, then got up to say goodbye, Xu Xing did not force him to stay, and called someone to send him.

As soon as he walked to the door, Shen Shi was about to walk out, when suddenly a figure flashed outside the door, and a girl with a beautiful face walked in, shouting: "Dad!"

Before the words fell, she saw Shen Shi who was walking out, she was stunned at first, and then a smile swept up at the corner of her mouth, under the skylight, the girl smiled brightly, and said softly and gently:

"Brother Shen is good. ”
