His words were so gentle that everyone listening felt an unreal sense of separation.

It was clear that his attitude just now was not like this.

Why do you seem to be a different person all of a sudden?

The person involved, Fu Rou, was even more confused. As a passerby, she rarely participated in the plot, so she learned the art of being in a daze when she was in the Cao camp and her heart was in the Han Dynasty.

This also indirectly caused her to not hear what these people were discussing just now, so she was completely confused at the moment as to why such an unusual-looking character kept talking to her again and again.

Could it be that this is a new hidden mission, but the system didn't have time to issue it to her?

So what should she do? Directly cooperate?

But there are so many people...

She's a bit...

Fu Rou trembled at the corner of her lips, quietly lowered her head and took a step back in an attempt to conceal her presence, while whispering: "Fu Rou, my name."

This should be enough, right?

Fu Rou thought.

"Fu Rou." Xie Qingyi bit her name gently, and the wind of the last sound passed through her lips and teeth, unexpectedly giving her a very soft feeling.

Fu Rou blushed. For some reason, the feeling of having her name spoken by the other person seemed a bit... astringent?

Ahhh! Don’t do it!

Fu Rou raised her hands to cover her face and stopped herself from thinking.

Seeing her like this, Xie Qingyi's fingers felt a little itchy, but he was afraid of scaring her, so he could only hold back and clenched his fingers, turned around and asked, "Can you tell me your horoscope?"

Fu Rou was stunned and looked up in confusion.

What does this mean?

"If you don't want my horoscope, I can only fend for myself."

His words were a little sad, and his eyebrows were drooping with a hint of loneliness.

He is good-looking, and with that ray of sadness, he looks even more elegant. In the past, Fu Rou would definitely have an attitude of appreciating beauty and eating melon seeds in a civilized manner.

But it doesn't work now. Fu Rou just refused loudly: "No!"

Her unusually high voice was extremely obvious in the silent atmosphere, and her soft and panicked voice attracted the attention of many people.

Shao Huai Jing turned his eyes slightly. Although his eyes fell on Fu Rou, there was no emotion in those eyes. It seemed that no one would make those eyes waver in the slightest.

Fu Rou seemed to notice that her actions attracted many people to watch. She froze and looked around in panic. Finally, her call for help fell on Lu Shiling, who was nearest to her.

The girl's black pupils were pure and clear, as misty as a deer's eyes.

Her pleading look can't help but make people immersed in it. I really want to be watched and needed by her like this all the time.

Lu Shiling pursed his lips, suppressed his pounding heart, and said with a calm expression: "Junior Sister Fu said she disagreed, and I hope you won't pester me."

Fu Rou nodded fiercely, looking very much in agreement.

"This kind of thing requires willingness. Since Junior Sister Fu doesn't want to do it, it's better not to force it."

As he spoke, he raised his head and met Xie Qingyi's eyes calmly.

Xie Qingyi's eyes darkened little by little, and the smile on his lips became fainter. Lu Shiling did not give in at all. The young man's eyebrows were cold, as sharp as a sharp knife.

The atmosphere between the two became a little subtle for a moment, but Fu Rou still nodded in agreement without noticing.

In the end, Shao Huaijing spoke up to interrupt their tit-for-tat confrontation.

"It's getting late, it's time to go back."

His calm voice, like the cool breeze, instantly broke the hostility between the two.

Lu Shiling looked away and bowed his head respectfully: "Yes, Master."

Xie Qingyi leaned over slightly and said softly to Fu Rou, "I'll wait for you."

After saying these words, his sleeves moved slightly, the fringe of the red umbrella swayed slightly in the wind, and his figure immediately dissipated in the fog like a wisp of breeze.

As the others disappeared, everyone's tense nerves relaxed a lot. Lin Jiaojiao directly stepped forward to care for Lu Shiling and said: "Brother, how are you injured?"

"I have medicine here."

As she said this, she took out a snow-white porcelain vase from her arms. Lu Shiling, who was about to refuse, immediately fixed his eyes on this familiar porcelain vase.

After a three-second pause, he looked at Fu Rou. His dark pupils gradually cooled down, and a strange and irritable emotion slowly rose from his heart.

He gave her the medicine in the morning and she gave it away in the afternoon.

She hates him so much.

The more he thought about it, the colder his heart became, the more depressed he became, and his jaw tightened even more. Lu Shiling opened his mouth to ask what she meant, but before he could say anything, he heard the girl's voice.

"Um, senior brother... thank you just now."

Her voice was delicate and soft, but her eyes were as bright as the sea of ​​​​stars, and his figure was reflected under her beautiful eyes.

Lu Shiling's mouth closed, and his sharp and irritable emotions were instantly soothed, followed by a more unfamiliar and moist emotion.

Like the resurgence of waves, layers are piling up towards my heart.

Dui's heart is sweet and soft.

His eyelashes trembled slightly, his gaze quickly retracted, he pursed his lips, licked his dry lips again, stabilized his mind, and then said calmly: "Yeah."

"You're welcome."

He still couldn't restrain himself and glanced at her, only to see her take out a big red spirit fruit and hold it tremblingly in her hands and hand it over.

"I don't know if senior brother likes it, but it's very sweet..."

“It’s not bad to eat.”

She explained a few words in a low voice for fear of being rejected, and then said nothing more, quietly observing his reaction with her eyes.

It seemed that if he showed any emotion that she didn't like, she would immediately take it back.

Lu Shiling's Adam's apple moved, and he reached out to take the spirit fruit, but when he retracted it, his fingertips accidentally touched the girl's soft fingertips.

But before he could react, the girl withdrew her hand and ran to a remote corner.

He looked at the red spirit fruit in his hand. For some reason, his throat felt dry. He lowered his head and took a bite of the spirit fruit by mistake.

The juice spreads in the mouth, and the thick sweetness of the pulp spreads on the taste buds.

It's really sweet.

"Senior brother, you..."

Lin Jiaojiao's voice brought back Lu Shiling's thoughts. He looked at Lin Jiaojiao and saw that his face was a little subtle.

"Didn't you say you don't like eating these things?"

The last time she piled spiritual fruits on his table, he made it clear that he didn't like eating such things and asked her not to give them to him in the future.

Why did you still eat it today?

Lin Jiaojiao's eyes fell on the fruit in his hand, and he didn't feel that it was any different from what she gave him.

Facing Lin Jiaojiao's somewhat suspicious gaze, Lu Shiling calmly put the bitten fruit into the storage ring, and then explained: "After all, it was a gift from my junior sister, so I can't let it offend my face."

It probably means caring for junior sister, giving her face, and saving her embarrassment.

But this is not really the reason, only Lu Shiling himself knows.

Anyway, he just said that. Believe it or not is up to Lin Jiaojiao.

Lin Jiaojiao was a little doubtful. She knew the temperament of her senior brother. He became famous at a young age and although he was not aloof, he was not approachable either.

He would never accept anything casually.

But if he has any intentions for Fu Rou...

She looked at the girl huddled in the corner as if she was autistic, and she really couldn't think of anything interesting about her.

Fu Rou is well-behaved and obedient, with a somewhat introverted personality. Although she looks a little dull at ordinary times, she rarely talks, so she doesn't dislike her.

What's more, she saved her, so speaking of it, she was somewhat grateful to her.

Otherwise, according to Lin Jiaojiao's temperament, he would not have gone out of his way to protect her for so many days.

Maybe the senior brother didn't hate her, so he was willing to accept the fruit she gave her. After all, Fu Rou's character was a bit timid. If she was rejected, she might be disappointed for several days.

Thinking like this, Lin Jiaojiao didn't take it to heart.

The ghost incident in the village has come to an end for the time being.

Because they didn't find the reason why the villagers became like this, and they didn't have a way to make the villagers change back.

Therefore, we can only temporarily return them to the village and set up a barrier outside the village to prevent them from coming out to harm others.

After everything was settled smoothly, they returned to the sect.

Fu Rou originally thought that she would go back to her days of lying around and doing odd jobs, but she didn't expect that she would be summoned to the main hall the day after she returned to the sect.
To be continued...
