Chapter 66 Chapter 66 Like soaking in warm water...

Seeing this scene, everyone else felt extremely complicated.

Qiao Wanshu and Gu Jingchen, in particular, felt that the situation before them should not have happened.

Forget about You Zhi, but why is He Shengnian so considerate to Xu Qinghu?

But they couldn't stop it, so they could only concentrate on eating and pretend nothing happened.

Du Yanting's lips curled up, and he was happy with all this.

At this time, the popularity of the live broadcast room continued to increase, and a large number of viewers flocked in after seeing the hot search. The barrage of comments exploded, and it seemed that it was about to reach a new high.

Although the audience likes Xiong Jing, this kind of scene also makes them feel fresh. While they are supporting the couple, they are also clamoring for Xu Qinghu to start a harem.

In just half an hour, Xu Qinghu gained more than 100,000 followers, and was showing signs of surpassing Qiao Wanshu.

After dinner, You Zhi asked Xu Qinghu to go upstairs to rest while he started to clean up the dishes.

"Let me do it," Gu Jingchen walked over to him and said softly, "You and Mr. He cooked, and I'll take care of the rest."

"Yeah," Du Yanting also came over and said with a smile, "Thank you for all the hard work, both buying groceries and cooking."

He took over the work from You Zhi and asked him to go to the living room to rest.

You Zhi hesitated for a moment and did not refuse.

Seeing this, Zhong Zining, who was sitting on the sofa watching TV, immediately waved at him and asked in a low voice: "Did you see Qi Song today? Is he dying of illness?"

You Zhi: “…”

"He's probably very ill," Zhong Zining speculated in a gloomy tone, "Maybe he has pneumonia, or maybe even white lung."

"No," You Zhi shook his head after a brief silence and replied, "I just stood at the door of the ward and watched him. He is not in danger of life."

Zhong Zining's eyes dimmed instantly, and she said unwillingly: "Is that so? It seems that he will be able to return to the cabin in a few days."

You Zhi: “…”

He Shengnian walked up to the second floor, and when he passed a slightly closed room, he stopped unconsciously.

He raised his hand and knocked gently on the door. Soon, the door was opened from the inside, and Xu Qinghu, wearing a white nightgown and with long hair, appeared in front of him.

The moment she saw He Shengnian, her eyes lit up and she looked at him with burning eyes.

"Is your throat still hurting?" The man lowered his eyes and looked at her, with a hint of concern in his eyes.

Xu Qinghu nodded aggrievedly, and said in a husky voice, "I'm still taking lozenges."

He Shengnian heard this and placed his large palm on her head. He touched her hair soothingly and asked, "Do you want to sleep now?"

Xu Qinghu didn't answer but asked: "What are you going to do?"

She seemed to really like the way He Shengnian cared about her, and she jumped happily on the spot like a cute little rabbit.

He Shengnian said meaningfully, "There are pears in the refrigerator."

"No, no," Xu Qinghu instantly understood what he meant, "I'm so full now, I can't eat anymore."

But she did not miss this opportunity to make the man perform well, "But you have to cook pear soup for me tomorrow and I will bring it to the company."

"Yeah." He Shengnian withdrew his hand and said softly, "Then go back to bed and lie down first. If you have anything, send me a message."

"I have something else to tell you," Xu Qinghu grabbed his sleeve, his eyes flickering as he said, "When I first arrived at the cabin this afternoon, many people asked me if I had brought you any gifts. Do you think I did?"

She looked at him with a smile, a sly and clever look in her eyes.

He Shengnian was stunned for a moment, then asked in a low voice: "What did you bring?"

Xu Qinghu used his eyes to signal him to open his palm, then placed a heart-shaped stone the size of a thumb in his hand and said with a smile, "I found this with a flashlight when I was watching the stars on the top of the mountain. Isn't it cute?"

She didn't mention how terrified she was when Qi Song left her on the mountain. She just said, "I've been looking for you for a long time."

She helped the man close his palms, but He Shengnian held her hands along with Little Stone, "Sorry, I should have come to you earlier."

He couldn't imagine how scared Xu Qinghu was when she stayed on the mountain, but at that moment, she still thought of bringing him a gift.

His eyes kept rolling, and if there wasn't a camera behind him, he would have wanted to pull her into his arms and hug her tightly.

"Although I'm a little scared, I'm not so scared anymore when I think that you will definitely come to find me." Xu Qinghu raised his head to look into his eyes, and his voice suddenly became very soft: "I know you will find me."

Her firm tone made He Shengnian's heart skip a beat. After a moment of silence, he said, "There won't be a next time for something like this."

Xu Qinghu's eyes suddenly curved up, "Then you must protect me well in the future."

At this point, she tilted her head and said meaningfully, "But now I've given you my 'heart'. How are you going to compensate me?"

Feeling the heart-shaped stone, He Shengnian's eyes dimmed slightly.

Xu Qinghu snorted softly, "You have to give me the same thing."

It was obviously a very cheesy love talk, but it sounded particularly sweet and beautiful when it came out of her mouth, making his heart unconsciously become sour and soft.

"you……"

"What?" Xu Qinghu looked at him with a smile and deliberately said, "Does Mr. He also stutter sometimes?"

He Shengnian lowered his eyes and looked into her eyes. There was no fear in her eyes after surviving a disaster, only a bright smile and dependence on him.

[Although I didn’t hear what they were saying, this scene is really sweet.]

[Can you please get closer while filming? They're not saying anything weird or doing anything weird. What's there to be wary of?]

[From this angle, the two of them should be holding hands. Mr. He must be very fond of gourds now.]

[There's really no hope for the others.]

[+1, Mr. He and Hulu have almost no chance of turning, so they should be able to enter the pit vertically now, right?]

[……]

"If you want it," he said slowly after a long while, "I can give it to you."

His tone seemed calm, but it was filled with strong emotions. He stared at Xu Qinghu, as if trying to judge whether she was joking or willing to accept his response.

"Why not?" Xu Qinghu said without hesitation: "I want it, I really, really want it."

As she said this, she almost jumped up from the ground and reached out to hug the man.

Unexpectedly, He Shengnian gently pressed her shoulders and whispered, "Not yet."

There are too many indirect viewers for the live broadcast, and they have not yet confirmed a real romantic relationship. Even if most people have no objection, there will still be many people who will talk about Xu Qinghu.

He didn't want her to be caught in the whirlpool of public opinion.

"Okay," Xu Qinghu shook He Shengnian's hand, unable to hide his disappointment, and said, "You have to compensate me in the future."

The man didn't say anything, but there was an obvious smile in his eyes.

The two stood at the door, silently feeling the sweetness and excitement of the moment. No one spoke, but they didn't feel bored at all.

Not long after, He Shengnian told Zhong Zining in a voice that only the two of them could hear that he had received a text message from her.

Xu Qinghu's eyelashes twitched slightly. She didn't expect that it was Zhong Zining who reminded He Shengnian. She thought that He Shengnian returned to the cabin and found that she was not there, or that his producer friend noticed something was wrong and reminded him. But think about it, He Shengnian was probably still on a date when he got the news, and his producer friend would not stay in the program crew for a long time. The director should have kept such bad news secret for the time being and told the other party after thinking of a solution.

"Is it her?" Xu Qinghu knew that Zhong Zining also had a good impression of He Shengnian, but when she was in danger, she actually chose to inform He Shengnian. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "I know."

She looked at He Shengnian and declared her sovereignty: "Although she helped me, she has feelings for you. You are not allowed to take the initiative to contact her. Even if I want to repay the favor, I will do it myself."

"Yeah." This might be the idea behind He Shengnian telling her this.

He could report back to Zhong Zining together with Xu Qinghu, but he didn't want to have too much contact with Zhong Zining, so it would be best for Xu Qinghu to come forward.

"There's something I want to tell you." Xu Qinghu hesitated for a few seconds and briefly told you what happened between him and You Zhi in the hospital.

"You Zhi and I are just friends." She didn't want He Shengnian to misunderstand her because of this, or to spend the night with emotions or to plant unnecessary hidden dangers. "I have clearly rejected him. There is no possibility of further development with him."

Xu Qinghu looked at He Shengnian and expressed his determination lovingly, "Now that I've met a mature and steady man like you, how could I possibly change my mind again? I definitely only love you."

Although He Shengnian bought groceries and cooked with You Zhi today and got along well with her, they were rivals in love after all, and he always felt a little uncomfortable. However, his rationality made him ignore those negative emotions, and his concern for Xu Qinghu prevailed.

But at this moment, she took the initiative to bring it up, willing to resolve the remaining issues between them. While he was slightly surprised, his heart felt like it was soaked in warm water, and his whole body felt warm.

"I know," He Shengnian said in a hoarse voice. He looked deeply at the girl in front of him and found that every time he came into contact with her, he would understand her better and his heart would be moved. "I don't mind his existence."

The emotional lines in the cabin are complicated. He only needs to get a response from Xu Qinghu. The threats from other people are not scary to him.

"But he still wants to keep insisting," Xu Qinghu lowered his eyes and said, "Maybe he won't give up until the very end."

"Yeah." He Shengnian looked at her face and saw that she looked calm. He touched her head again with his hand and said with his thin lips: "I only care about your thoughts."

Xu Qinghu snorted softly: "Of course I only like you."

He Shengnian's lips curled up when he heard this. Just as he was about to say something else, footsteps suddenly came from the stairs.

He restrained his expression and said to Xu Qinghu: "Go to bed early. I'll make breakfast for you tomorrow."

"Okay." Xu Qinghu blinked and reminded: "Keep my 'heart' safe. If you lose it, you won't have another one, and I will definitely be angry."

"Yeah." He Shengnian let go of her hand, held the stone tightly, turned and walked towards the room at the end of the corridor.

Looking at his tall back, Xu Qinghu lowered his eyelashes and raised his hand to close the door.

She returned to the dressing table to continue her skin care when the door was knocked again. She was stunned, thinking that it was He Shengnian who had returned. But when she opened the door, it was Qiao Wanshu in blue home clothes.

She stood at the door with her back to the ceiling light, half of her face shrouded in shadow. When she saw Xu Qinghu, she smiled and asked, "Can I talk to you?"

Xu Qinghu did not refuse and leaned over to let her into the room.

[Oh my god, what is Qiao Wanshu doing here looking for Hulu?]

[She wants to ask about Qi Song, right? She and Qi Song have the best relationship in the room.]

[Didn't the production team already release an announcement regarding Qi Song? They probably wanted to inquire about Xu Qinghu and He Shengnian's progress.]

[Qiao Wanshu, go home. Your fans used to insult Xu Qinghu. Isn't it embarrassing for you to come to Xu Qinghu? Go home quickly.]

[Can you please stop the conspiracy theories above? Qiao Qiao is so kind, she must have something serious to tell Xu Qinghu.]

[+1, can the commenters please stop speculating about Qiao Qiao and be less malicious towards her?]

[This is hilarious! When you guys were cyberbullying Xu Qinghu for the Royal Family, weren't you wearing this expression?]

"Sit down," Xu Qinghu returned to the dressing mirror, "either a chair or the bed is fine."

Qiao Wanshu sat down on the chair next to her without hesitation.

Both of them were facing the mirror, one was bright and beautiful, the other was cold and beautiful. At first glance, they were two different types of girls.

Xu Qinghu didn't ask Qiao Wanshu why he came to see him, and continued to apply makeup on his face.

Qiao Wanshu felt inexplicably complicated when he saw her constantly trying to dress herself up even though she was already beautiful enough.

She actually didn't want to come to find Xu Qinghu, but when she thought about how she was always one step slower than her in everything she did after she appeared, she always felt unwilling in her heart.

"I didn't expect Qi Song to choose such a date place," she cleverly avoided He Shengnian and brought up a topic that Xu Qinghu would definitely not refuse. "After I learned that you went to the hospital, I felt very sad."

She looked at Xu Qinghu's fair profile. "I know many viewers have speculated whether Qi Song took you to that place because of me, but it really has nothing to do with me. Even when he went on a date with me, he took me to the mountains to watch the stars..."

Qi Song didn't reply to the message for a long time, and Qiao Wanshu had already guessed that he had become a discarded pawn.

The most important thing now is to distance herself from him and let the audience who are dissatisfied with her understand that all this is Qi Song’s own behavior and has nothing to do with her.

Otherwise, if something goes wrong later, you may be implicated.

After thinking for a long time, she decided to find Xu Qinghu, at least to let the audience feel her sincerity from the surface.

Although she and Xu Qinghu are love rivals, she would not do such a despicable thing.

[As expected, Qiao Qiao is always honest and aboveboard in everything she does. I like how she is so open and honest, and speaks her mind freely.]

[Qi Song and Xu Qinghu are out on a date, why is everyone suspicious of Qiao Qiao? This is insane!]

I feel bad for Qiao Qiao. She's a rich girl, but she's suffered so much injustice on the show.

[+1, now I have to explain to Xu Qinghu in a humble manner, it's so suffocating.]

[Is this the treatment a rich girl gets? If the production team keeps doing this, will they ever be able to find such high-quality female guests in the future?]

[Looking at Xu Qinghu's smug look makes me angry. Can he just get out of here right away? Qiao Qiao is the most popular female guest on the show!]

Seeing you, the clueless and furious fans, makes me want to laugh. Did Xu Qinghu force Qiao Wanshu to come and explain? Did Xu Qinghu force her to be friends with Qi Song? What? Whenever something goes wrong, you start blaming others. Is this how a young lady should act? If she'd shown a little more concern for Qi Song, I'd admire her. But now she's excusing herself as soon as she comes in. It's hilarious!

Xu Qinghu knew her purpose, but facing the camera, she did not embarrass Qiao Wanshu. She just said, "You think too much. I don't think this matter has anything to do with you."

Her tone was the same as usual, as if she really didn't think Qiao Wanshu would do anything behind the scenes. She even smiled at her and said, "You are so kind, how could I possibly think too much."

But it was this calm tone that frightened Qiao Wanshu. She thought Xu Qinghu would at least express her anger towards Qi Song, so that she would join her in complaining against the same enemy.

But Xu Qinghu didn't have that reaction at all, as if she didn't care at all about what Qi Song did to her.

If Qiao Wanshu knew that Qi Song had broken both legs and was sent abroad by his father, he might understand why Xu Qinghu was so calm.

Caring about a useless person? How could it be possible?
