Vol 2 Chapter 180: Get close

Chapter One Hundred and Eighty
Zhong Qingzhu slowly raised his head and looked at her, only to see that Ling Chunni's face did not have a different color, and his calm expression seemed to just ask a common question casually. \\　\\She was silent for a while, and then when her lips moved slightly to answer, Ling Chunni suddenly raised her head, her face was a little bit annoying, and she shook her head a little apologetically, and smiled at Zhong Qingzhu Road:
"Oh, I'm sorry, I said something wrong again." She sighed and said, "Miss Qingzhu, don't mind, I am a stupid person sometimes, so I say some silly things. Yesterday If you hadn't saved me several times on the scene, I would have fallen into the hands of the Beast Alliance, so what else can I ask if I die?"
Zhong Qingzhu took a deep look at the woman in front of him, then said softly after a moment of silence: "It's okay."
Ling Chunni smiled and stretched out his hand, grabbed Zhong Qingzhu's palm, and smiled and said: "Anyway, it's a coincidence that the two of us have lived through a life and death tribulation together, but I don't know if you will appreciate your face and be my friend. What?" She said that there was some expectation in her eyes, and she said softly, "Actually, I have never had a good friend, and sometimes I especially want to have a good sister who can talk and chat, but... um, May I?"
Zhong Qingzhu was taken aback. It seemed that Ling Chunni would suddenly say something like this. It was just that she looked at Ling Chunni at this moment and saw the woman with plump body and charming face. She smiled and moved, as if The beauty of natural softness is naturally revealed. Not to mention that it is a man or a woman Zhong Qingzhu. At this moment, there is even a bit of heartbeat.
Suddenly, there was an unexplained heartache in her heart. For a moment, she thought blankly in her heart: No wonder, no wonder he would like this woman, or maybe, he likes such a woman...
She was a little startled for a while, did not speak, but Ling Chunni was a little misunderstood. She was a little bit ashamed and disappointed. She lowered her head slightly and said in a low voice: "Uh, sorry, I was abrupt. Miss Green Bamboo, you came from everyone, and He is a direct disciple of the Lingxiao Sect, with a bright future, I, I am... Don't be angry, just assume I didn't say..."
Before the last word "passed" was said, Zhong Qingzhu had already recovered, shook his head and interrupted Ling Chunni's words, saying: "It's not that, we...can be friends." She smiled. Laughing, there seemed to be a bit of helplessness in the smile, saying, "What family background, what status, in fact, my background when I was a child may not be any better than you."
Ling Chunni smiled immediately, obviously very happy to be friends with Zhong Qingzhu, and she became a little more intimate when talking with her. Although Zhong Qingzhu was not very comfortable with Ling Chunni's kindness at the beginning, but he chatted and talked. Gradually, the impression of Ling Chunni had changed a little, and she realized that this girl didn't seem to be exactly the same as what she had thought before, and she was quite able to talk to herself in her words.
Or maybe, don't you actually have many true friends?
In this way, Ling Chunni sat by Zhong Qingzhu’s bed and spoke with her for a while, and the two gradually deepened their understanding of each other, but after a while, Zhong Qingzhu suddenly felt something, bowed his head slightly, and realized Ling Chunni's palm was still holding her 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 taken aback, and quickly withdrew his hand from Zhong Qingzhu's palm, and smiled apologetically: "Oh, I forgot about it. I didn't chill you?"
Zhong Qingzhu shook his head, looked at Ling Chunni's eyes with a little more doubt, and said: "I remember that last night, I felt that your body and palms were very cold. At that time, I thought you were frightened. How come you are now Is it 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 let out a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "No, I'm fine. I don't have any sickness or pain. It's just natural." He stretched out his hand to Zhong Qingzhu again and said with a smile, "You feel it now, isn't it hotter again?"
Zhong Qingzhu stretched out his hand and gently held Ling Chunni’s palm, only to feel that the skin between her palms was indeed a little warmer than just now, but that trace of warmth was so fragile, it was obvious that the deeper layer of coldness could not be covered, like water, like ice.
Zhong Qingzhu held her hand for a while, then smiled and said, "Well, I feel better."
Ling Chunni smiled, with a gentle and sly complacency on his face. When he was about to say something, suddenly from the courtyard outside their house, a familiar man's voice came, with a bit of eagerness. Anxiously, shouted:
"Chunni, Chunni, are you here?"
Inside and outside the bed, the two women were shocked at the same time.
Ling Chunni jumped up all of a sudden. At that moment, it seemed as if there was a brilliance blooming from her face. The whole person was a little bright, and the joy and the smile suddenly bloomed like flowers.
She turned around abruptly, ran to the door of the room quickly, and opened the door. The light outside the house was falling down, and she saw a man standing in the courtyard outside the house, on Qingshi Road, and turning his head, it was Shen Shi. .
"stone!"
Ling Chunni cheered and jumped out, his expression excited and joyful, and even a little water mist suddenly appeared in his eyes, and Shen Shi strode immediately after seeing Ling Chunni. The two met on the road in the small courtyard, Ling Chunni laughed, and Shen Shi opened his arms and hugged her. Finally, he was relieved and laughed out of relief.
Snuggling in that familiar and warm embrace, Ling Chunni instantly felt an exceptional satisfaction and steadfastness, as if the thoughts and thrills from these days suddenly became unimportant at this moment, as long as...can be in his embrace, Will suffice.
She closed her eyes with a smile, her hands tightly hugged Shen Shi's waist, and she pressed herself to his body like a bit of greed, to breathe 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 accidentally looked up and was suddenly startled.
At the end of the stone path ahead, in the east wing, on the bed in the open door, there was an injured and slightly haggard woman sitting on the bed, her face pale, and she stared at this scene from there.
In an unseen place, her drooping palms quietly grabbed a corner of her cloak, and slowly squeezed it tightly until the joints turned white and sinked deeply into the skin.
※※※
After seeing each other for a long time, there has been such a dangerous thing in the middle, and the yin and yang are almost gone. Whether Shen Shi or Ling Chunni is a bit afraid. But it's okay. Everything seems to be stable right now. Shen Shi first came in and thanked Zhong Qingzhu, and then asked her with concern about her injury. Zhong Qingzhu looked as indifferent as usual, saying that he was fine. .
Shen Shi was here in a hurry. As soon as he came, he was anxious to come over to see the two of them, although there were still a lot of questions in his heart at the moment that he wanted to talk to the two women, including how Ling Chunni's body was, how Zhong Qingzhu was injured, and the strange Zhong Qingzhu Why did he show up in the secluded hut, but it was not the time for him to elaborate, because when he arrived at the Xu family, he had to visit the senior patrons of the Xu family first. After all, they really depended on them to save this time. Ling Chunni and Zhong Qingzhu are really a great friendship.
So after seeing Ling Chunni and Zhong Qingzhu and confirming that they were both safe and sound, Shen Shi said a few words to them, and then turned back to the living room of Xu's front hall, where Xu Teng was already waiting for him.
The two of them sat down and talked with gratitude. Xu Teng was very friendly to this young man. He didn't see any arrogance at all. He told Shen Shi about the situation last night in detail, and finally showed some concern. Said: "Brother Shen, you also understand the current situation. I don’t need to say any more. The girl Ling had better live here recently, first to recover from her injuries, and second, to be safe, and to avoid being caught by the villain of the Beast League again. turn up."
Shen Shi pondered for a moment without being pretentious, nodding his head, clasping his fists and saying, "This will disturb Senior Xu. Such kindness, Shen Shi will surely return in the future."
Xu Teng laughed and waved his hand: "Brother Shen is too polite, but it's just a matter of effort. In addition, the Beast League injured my third brother first. Our Xu family was about to deal with them. This time, it just happened to be a beginning. When we come down, we must cut the grass and root, expel this gang of evildoers from Floating Cloud City, and return the city to a bright future."
Shen Shi thought for a while and thought for a while: "Senior, if this is the case, maybe I can do a little bit of strength in the next, it can be regarded as repaying your family's help."
Xu Teng smiled and shook his head, stretched out his hand to beckon him to sit down, and said with a smile: "Joker, Brother He Lao Shen, you don't have to."
Shen Shi begged several times again. Xu Teng only smiled and declined. Only let Shen Shi and Ling Chunni rest here. Shen Shi had no choice but to accept his good intentions, and at the same time, if he was useful Where, please do not be polite.
After this narrative conversation, the relationship between the two felt a lot closer. After sitting for a while, Shen Shi got up and left, and then went to the back house to visit Xu Xing. After the previous injury and damage, Xu Xing looked quite old, but his spirit was not bad, and he was very happy to see Shen Shi coming over. He dragged him to talk for a while, and finally said to him, There is no need for Shen Shi to intervene in dealing with the Beast League. The Xu family will naturally take care of it. In the words, the Xu family has been low-key for too long. If they can show their fangs well this time, they will also be able to do it. Look at the meaning of other families in Liuyun City.
At this point, Xu Xing also smiled and praised Shen Shi, 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, and after sitting for a while, he got up and said goodbye. Xu Xing did not force him to stay, and called for someone to send him off.
As soon as he walked to the door, Shen Shi was about to walk out. Suddenly, a figure flashed outside the door. A girl with a beautiful face and snow skin came in and shouted: "Father!"
Before she finished her words, she saw Shen Shi who was walking out. She was startled, and then a smile fluttered from the corner of her mouth. Under the sky, the girl smiled softly and softly:
"Hello, Big Brother Shen."
