Chapter 050 Chapter 50

Xia Meng felt that she had gained a lot from today's sparring.

Therefore, he was in a good mood and had the leisure to help Ning Yi see a doctor.

But there won’t be any more.

She also didn't plan to have any contact with Ning Yi in the future.

She once thought that Ning Yi's attraction to her was a rare coincidence, and she couldn't blame him; the responsibility lay with her.

I even thought that maybe more contact could help desensitize him.

After the contact just now, she realized that the main cause was still with him.

She interacted well with other people.

For example, Su Fangxiao, and the few people I met before, even Pei Ziling, were relatively normal.

For example, Li Zhou... Well, apart from that weird dream, Li Zhou is also normal.

Therefore, in order to prevent Ning Yi from having withdrawal symptoms due to his addiction to her, she should get away from him as soon as possible.

…

The sparring was over. After Xia Meng said hello to Ning Yi, she happily went out with Wang Xiangyi.

Today is the weekend and there are not many people in Heita.

Apart from some staff on duty, there was basically no one there.

Wang Xiangyi asked, "You're not on duty today, are you?"

Xia Meng: "No."

Wang Xiangyi: "That's perfect. I'll go buy some groceries later. You can come to my place for dinner tonight. I'll make up for the meal we had earlier."

Xia Meng nodded repeatedly and said attentively, "Sure, sure. Can I go grocery shopping with you?"

Wang Xiangyi knew exactly what Xia Meng was talking about. "What? Are you planning to order food on the spot?"

Xia Meng grinned: "Hehe."

As they spoke, the master and disciple prepared to go to the front desk of the special service center.

You must register there when you make a reservation and use the training room.

When I passed by the large training room outside, I found that there were quite a few people gathered there.

Xia Meng glanced over there when she was registering.

The person in charge of registration at the front desk is a lovely female sentry.

Xia Meng had met her several times before. The girl seemed to have just graduated from Shaoxiang University and had a lively personality.

While registering, Xia Meng glanced over there and chatted casually: "What's going on over there?"

The little girl had a complicated expression. She looked over there, then back at her: "Well...Brother Li Zhou is over there."

When Xia Meng heard Li Zhou's name, the tip of her pen paused.

For some reason, whenever someone mentioned him, she subconsciously recalled the scene of the two of them standing at the door and looking at each other awkwardly this morning.

She pretended to be calm and asked casually, "Oh...what is he doing over there?"

The little girl replied with some lingering fear, "It seems like he's giving instructions to the younger generation. He's already knocked down more than a dozen people."

Xia Meng recalled Li Zhou’s last “guidance”. That time when he faced Pei Ziling, it was simply a one-sided beating.

This time... who provoked him again?

The little girl also remembered the scene last time when Xia Meng appeared like a god from heaven and pulled Li Zhou away.

She whispered tentatively, "Doctor Xia, why don't you... go over and take a look today?"

Xia Meng understood the cry for help in the little girl's words.

Yes, most people really can’t handle Li Zhou’s guidance.

What did those sentries who came to the special service center for extra training on the weekend do wrong?

It's so miserable.

Xia Meng put down her pen and nodded: "Then I'll go over and take a look."

Then she turned around and said to Wang Xiangyi, "Master, please wait a moment. How about you wait for me downstairs? I'll go take care of something and be there soon."

Wang Xiangyi was not far away, so he knew what they were talking about.

Li Zhou, huh, is also a big pig's hoof who sticks to Xiao Xia.

However, Wang Xiangyi remembered the last time at Jingbei Hospital, Xia Meng later told him that it was Li Zhou who found and rescued his master's wife personally.

Since it concerned his wife, Wang Xiangyi could only slightly restrain his hostility towards the sentry and nodded.

So Xia Meng walked over and pushed through the crowd.

"Excuse me, please make way, please make way!"

A lot of people have gathered outside the training room.

It was the same round transparent training room as last time.

Sure enough, Li Zhou was inside.

Two sentinels are fighting.

The crowd chattered.

"That's amazing! Boss Li Zhou actually gave up both hands this time!"

"What's two hands? He didn't even use a sliver of mental energy from beginning to end."

"Too strong! Too strong!"

"There's no comparison at all!"

"What else do you want to compare with S-class?"

"It's a good deal to be able to fight him once, right? Did you take any good photos for me just now? I'll post them on my social media platform later! This is the photo of my life!"

As Xia Meng walked forward, she happened to pass by the person who was talking.

The man had a bruised face, but he looked cheerful and cheerful.

It seems that being able to fight with Li Zhou really makes him very proud.

Xia Meng turned and looked at the battle scene.

The person who was fighting with Li Zhou at this time was also a special agent, with an A-level logo printed on the chest of his black training suit.

This A-level sentinel's special ability is probably wind-related. His attacks are extremely fast, and each move is dazzling.

The two men were fighting each other in close combat.

No, this could not be considered a mutual fight, but rather a one-sided attack by the A-rank sentry.

He attacked again and again.

Li Zhou kept his hands behind his back and defended himself so well that the opponent couldn't even catch a corner of his clothes.

But Li Zhou did not retreat blindly.

He even stood in the same place without changing his position.

Every time the opponent attacked, Li Zhou would raise his leg and counterattack.

With his incredibly long legs, he kicked sideways, hitting the opponent's chest easily at a tricky angle.

The opponent was caught off guard and was kicked out.

Li Zhou slowly retracted his legs, still with his hands behind his back, as if he was strolling in the garden.

Xia Meng looked at his profile.

He looked like he was not in a good mood.

There was no trace of a smile on his face, and the corners of his lips, which usually showed a hint of smile, were now straight.

There was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

A few onlookers in the crowd screamed softly.

“So handsome!!!”

"Fuck, these long legs are amazing!"

"Hiss, hiss, not to mention the legs, that waist is also amazing. The legendary perfect male dog waist!"

"Tsk tsk, those muscle lines are amazing, I want them too!"

"Hey, I'll never have legs like this in my lifetime, but these abdominal muscles and biceps, maybe I can get them with some effort!"

Xia Meng unconsciously moved closer to where the girls were gathered.

As expected of female sentinels, they all commented on Li Zhou's figure, and the conclusion they reached was to discuss whether they could have him.

Xia Meng was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when she heard this.

At this moment, the people in the field suddenly turned their heads as if they had realized something and looked in her direction.

Then, he turned around and walked towards this side.

The man who was kicked away was a little too angry because of the abuse. When he saw Li Zhou's attention was diverted, he immediately seized the opportunity to attack again.

From Xia Meng's perspective, she could only watch as the man launched a flying kick towards the back of Li Zhou's head.

Li Zhou seemed to be unaware of it and did not dodge or evade.

His eyes were staring straight at her.

She subconsciously wanted to remind: "Be careful behind!"

Just as the man was about to hit Li Zhou on the back of the head, in a flash, a golden giant lion swooped out from the side, knocked the sentry to the ground and threw him away.

From beginning to end, Li Zhou didn't even look back.

He stared at Xia Meng without blinking and walked towards her quickly.

Only when he walked in front of Xia Meng did he realize that there was glass between them.

Xia Meng smiled and gestured to him, indicating that he should come out, as she had something to say.

Li Zhou stared at her gestures, finally smiled slowly and nodded quickly.

There was finally a hint of warming up on the icy face.

The female sentries who were originally commenting on Li Zhou's figure turned around to look at Xia Meng. While Li Zhou was still not around, they covered their mouths and whispered jokingly, "Sure enough, it has to be Doctor Xia. Boss Li has had a stern face for most of the day, but when he saw you, his eyes lit up."

Xia Meng was embarrassed.

Sister, do you know that Li Zhou can hear you at this volume?

Li Zhou ended the fight directly and pushed the door open and came out.

The golden lion stepped on the man who attacked him, looked at him, and then stepped directly over him.

In the blink of an eye, the golden lion turned back into a cat and trotted behind Li Zhou.

Li Zhou moved quickly and in the blink of an eye he passed through the crowd and came to her.

Xia Meng opened her mouth to explain her purpose, but when she glanced around, she found that everyone around them was staring at them intently.

Xia Meng coughed: "Well...if everything is fine, let's all go home first, okay?"

As she spoke, she reached out, grabbed Li Zhou's wrist, and led him out of the crowd.

The man who was invincible in public just a few minutes ago was held by Xia Meng's wrist and was led away obediently by her.

There was no intention of resisting at all.

The rest of the people looked at each other in confusion.

Xia Meng pulled Li Zhou to a corner where no one would come near him.

She let go of his hand and looked up at him.

Li Zhou lowered his eyes and glanced at his wrist. The moment she let go, he felt his whole heart become empty.

He pursed his lips and looked up at her quietly.

Their eyes met.

For some reason, Xia Meng vaguely felt that there was a hint of depression in his expression.

It seems...it seems like I feel a little aggrieved.

Like a pitiful little dog.

Xia Meng was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked: "What's wrong with you?"

Li Zhou didn't say anything.

Like a child who has been wronged, he is unwilling to speak.

Xia Meng patiently asked again: "You don't look happy, what happened?"

The questions are longer and more detailed than before.

Li Zhou pursed his lips, looked down at her, and suddenly took a step forward. He bent down and sniffed at her ear, and said unhappily, "You smell like that salted fish."

Salted fish?

Who is it? Ning Yi?

Xia Meng recalled that she didn't seem to have had any close contact with Ning Yi.

At most, Ning Yi was almost burned by her shock, so she went forward to take his pulse.

Can you smell this too?

Li Zhou complained: "But you smell like his spiritual power all over you."

Xia Meng: “…”

This... was beyond her comprehension.

What does mental power taste like?

Are all sentinels’ noses so sensitive?

She said, "Oh," and then she said, "No wonder. During our sparring today, his mental power flooded the entire room."

She couldn't hide even if she wanted to.

Li Zhou was silent for a while, pursing his lips for a long time before asking, "You want to find someone to practice with, why don't you find me?"

Xia Meng found it a little funny. What's going on? Is this person jealous?

Why are there still people who want to be abused?

Xia Meng said: "My master arranged this person. I only found out who would be my sparring partner after I arrived."

After saying that, she thought for a moment and added, "I guess this is just the first time. I probably won't have any contact with him again in the future."

This last sentence seemed to barely comfort him.

Li Zhou's expression softened a little.

Xia Meng always knew how to comfort people, so she took the opportunity to go a step further and asked, "My master and I are going to the market to buy vegetables. We agreed before that I would take you to my master's house for a big meal as a thank you for helping to save my master's wife. How about today?"

Li Zhou naturally had no objection.

Xia Meng turned around to leave, but was suddenly grabbed by Li Zhou.

"Wait a minute," he said.

Xia Meng turned around: "What's wrong?"

Li Zhou said softly: "Don't move——"

As he spoke, he exerted a little force on his hands and pulled her directly into his arms.

Xia Meng was caught off guard and stabbed into his chest.

She raised her chin in surprise and watched Li Zhou raise his arms, press his body against her, and hug her completely.

He leaned his head over and pressed it against her ear.

Xia Meng had a lot of question marks on her mind.

She didn't move, nor did she resist much, so she just let him hold her.

But she couldn't help asking, "What are you doing?"

Li Zhou whispered, "Wash it."

Xia Meng: "Huh?"

She was even more confused, but the next second, she understood what Li Zhou meant.

I saw a very thin layer of mental power emerging from Li Zhou's body, spreading over little by little, enveloping her.

Xia Meng was a little amused and helpless.

What? Using his mental power to cleanse her?

This guy is quite creative.

She watched with amusement as his mental power spread through her little by little, carefully and gently.

Xia Meng felt that the touch was a bit like walking into a cloud of fog.

The feeling his mental power gave her was very different from Ning Yi's.

It didn't make her feel uncomfortable or disgusted.

She couldn't sense any other unusual thoughts in him.

It was as if his only intention was to help her cleanse the scent of other Sentinels from her.

His mental power is very clean.

Clean without any evil thoughts.

Xia Meng rarely perceives the word "clean" in adults.

Many times, she usually feels that kind of purity in babies or small animals.

At this moment, Li Zhou seemed like a soft and cute large dog in her eyes... a bit like a Samoyed, fluffy, warm and clean.

Xia Meng couldn't help but raise her hand and pat his back soothingly.

She waited for a moment before curiously asking, "How's the cleaning going?"

It ended long ago.

Li Zhou thought that her whole body was already filled with his scent.

He just... just couldn't bear to let go.

He slowly let go of her, and when he saw that there was no resistance or rejection in her eyes, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Xia Meng looked down at herself.

Is this the cleaning done?

She couldn't feel any difference.

So, now she has been marked by him like a dog's territory?

Could the other sentries smell his scent on her?

Xia Meng accepted it very calmly.

Okay.

If she had to have some of the scent of a sentinel, then Li Zhou was better than the two sparring partners.

Xia Meng: "Let's go."

…

Wang Xiangyi stood at the gate of the black tower.

The concentration of sentries in the hall was too high, and he would rather endure the high temperature of nearly 40 degrees outside than stay inside.

"Master!" Xia Meng came out quickly.

Wang Xiangyi nodded, and when he looked up, he unexpectedly saw a big tail following her.

Xia Meng said very consciously: "I'll take Li Zhou with me. You haven't forgotten that he hasn't had his meal yet."

Of course Wang Xiangyi remembers it.

Because Li Zhou was one of his wife's saviors, he had to temporarily put aside his prejudice against the sentry.

Wang Xiangyi nodded: "Hello."

Li Zhou straightened up slightly and bowed his head politely: "Hello, Professor Wang."

Wang Xiangyi glanced at him subtly.

He was quite humble and polite, and was one of the few sentries that he didn't dislike.

So the three of them set out from the Black Tower.

I took the subway to the vegetable market near Wang Xiangyi's home.

Xia Meng was responsible for ordering food, Wang Xiangyi was responsible for buying, and Li Zhou was responsible for carrying things.

Expect another large table.

Wang Xiangyi started to get busy as soon as he got home.

Xia Meng never cooks at her master's house, and Wang Xiangyi doesn't let her into the kitchen either, knowing very well how good she is at making a mess in the kitchen.

Rather than letting her make things more complicated, it would be faster for him to do the work alone.

The teacher's wife is taking care of a student at home today. The student is a high school student and is learning piano with the teacher's wife.

It was inconvenient to disturb Xia Meng, so she sat down in the living room.

She turned her head and found that Li Zhou had entered the kitchen at some point, blended in very naturally, and began to help Wang Xiangyi.

Wang Xiangyi didn't reject him at all, and even took the initiative to give him an apron.

Xia Meng was a little surprised.

It was really strange. This was the first time I saw Lao Wang actively accepting the presence of a sentry in his own private space.

Maybe it was because he saw that Li Zhou really wanted to help, and that he could really help with washing, picking and cutting vegetables.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, fortunately.

She felt as if she knew her parents didn't like cats and dogs, but still brought her own dog home.

Fortunately, the dog was very capable and able to please her "father", so he didn't throw them all out of the house.

While helping in the kitchen, Li Zhou turned his head to look at the living room.

Xia Meng was resting her chin on her hand, dozing off out of boredom, while watching Ergou try to catch Wang Xiangyi's chicken for the hundred and first time.

Although Ergou is usually timid in front of cats, he is very good at catching chickens.

After a while, the golden pheasants were chased all over the living room, clucking and clucking, and their feathers flew all over the sky.

Wang Xiangyi glanced over there several times while cutting vegetables.

He was so angry.

Is there any justice left?!

He was working hard in the kitchen to cook for her, and she was bullying his spirit body!

Evil disciple! Are you planning to rebel again?

I saw Ergou crouching down and crawling on the ground.

It was quietly circling behind the golden pheasant, intending to launch a surprise attack when it was off guard.

Before he could make a move, Ergou suddenly saw a flash of golden light in front of his eyes, and a big cat fell from the sky and picked it up with a loud noise.

Surrender with one move and enforce justice on behalf of Heaven.

Then, just like picking up a kitten, he bit the back of its neck and quickly carried it away from the Golden Pheasant's range.

There is always a way around it, which is probably what it means.

Ergou didn't even dare to squeak in its mouth.

In the kitchen, Wang Xiangyi looked up at Li Zhou.

There was a look of disgust in his eyes.

He actually dared to let the spirit body bully his apprentice Ergou!

Not a good person!

The next second, he saw out of the corner of his eye that the cat jumped onto the sofa with Ergou in its mouth and slowly came to Xia Meng.

Ergou was placed in front of Xia Meng, and then both of them were hugged in Xia Meng's arms and ravaged.

So, Xia Meng hugged the cat, and the cat hugged the little ferret.

The cat lowered its head and licked the little ferret's fur again and again.

The picture looks quite harmonious.

Wang Xiangyi glanced at Li Zhou again.

There was three parts of disgust and three parts of approval in his eyes.

This sentry is not without its merits.

At least the awareness is very high.

The child is teachable.

Li Zhou, who was cutting vegetables, did not look away the whole time: "..."

…

In the evening, the meal went quite harmoniously.

At the dinner table, the familiar master and apprentice were bickering from the beginning of the meal to the end.

Time flies by in the blink of an eye.

By the time Xia Meng got up to say goodbye, it was already past nine o'clock.

Wang Xiangyi and his wife sent the two of them to the door.

The master's wife was still gentle and kind, and said with a smile, "Bring Li Zhou back when you have time."

Xia Meng looked at the master's wife with a bit of amusement.

She felt it when she was having dinner tonight. The look in the master's wife's eyes when she looked at Li Zhou was exceptionally gentle and loving, just like a mother-in-law seeing her son-in-law coming to visit.

She stretched out her voice to remind him: "Master's wife——"

Just two words, but full of meaning.

The master's wife naturally understood what she meant and smiled with her eyes curved.

Master's wife: "Be careful on your way back."

The two set out on their way back.

It was past nine o'clock in the evening and there were still many passengers on the subway.

The carriage was packed with tired office workers, and the two were squeezed into the corner of the carriage.

Xia Meng's back was pressed against the carriage.

Li Zhou leaned his arms on the wall of the compartment, like a solid wall, to create some space for her.

There were too many people in the carriage, so it was inevitable that the two people would get very close to each other.

Xia Meng tried her best to stick herself to the wall.

I can hide with my body, but I don’t know where to put my eyes.

Looking ahead, her eye level was right up to his chest.

It's embarrassing to stare at someone's chest.

She turned her head and her eyes fell on his arm again.

The strong and graceful lines of his arms are clearly revealed through his shirt sleeves.

It's embarrassing to stare at someone's arm.

Xia Meng was a little uncomfortable with this strange mental state.

Yes, she felt that her mental state was somewhat affected by the dream she had in the morning.

When I look at Li Zhou today, I am always distracted. I always think of the slightly cool kiss on the back of her feet and the hot lips and tongue that seem to want to swallow her.

……Alas.

Her mind is not clear anymore.

It’s all because of that dream!

Li Zhou didn't know what she was thinking. Seeing her frowning as if in pain, he lowered his head and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Xia Meng took a deep breath and said, "...No." She just felt a little uncomfortable in her head.

She began to mutter slowly in her heart, admonishing herself.

The person in front of me is Li Zhou.

Li Zhou has a guide with an engraved seal, so to be honest, he has a master.

Where is your moral bottom line when you have such wild thoughts about a man who is already in a relationship?

Xia Meng wiped her face and felt herself calm down a little.

very good.

"Xia Meng." Li Zhou suddenly whispered in her ear.

Xia Meng opened her eyes.

I saw Li Zhou's expression suddenly tense, and he was looking around vigilantly.

She was startled: "What's wrong?"

Li Zhou frowned slightly, withdrew his gaze from the left, and turned to look to the right.

He slowly tightened his arms around her, pressing further against her.

He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, in a voice only she could hear: "Something is wrong here."

As soon as he finished speaking, the lights in this carriage suddenly flickered.

Xia Meng looked past Li Zhou's arm and looked outside.

I saw that the passengers around me still maintained their previous postures and movements.

Looking around, it was no different from when I got on the bus just now.

The closest to them were two office workers in suits, a little further away were three students in school uniforms, and on the seats to the left was a couple, the wife was pregnant, and next to them were two young people dragging luggage, looking exhausted and as if they had just returned from out of town.

At first glance, nothing seems unusual.

She took another closer look and then took a deep breath.

Those two office workers, those three high school students, that couple, those two backpackers... Everyone in this carriage has the same face.

Exactly the same face.

These people have different expressions, heights and attire. Some wear glasses, some wear makeup, some have shaved heads, and some are pregnant...

These people, of different heights, weights, genders, and ages, all have the same face!

What’s going on!?

what happened?

Xia Meng didn't say anything, but looked up at Li Zhou.

The face so close to her still had the same familiar features.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, fortunately, Li Zhou is still normal.

She signaled to him with her eyes: What's going on?

Li Zhou lowered his eyes and looked at her. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly realized something and closed his mouth silently.

He slowly put down his hand, and his right hand rested silently on her waist, his fingertips gently writing a few words on her lower back.

He wrote slowly, stroke by stroke, so that she could understand.

A dot, a stroke, a horizontal stroke, a vertical stroke...

Xia Meng lowered her eyes and focused her attention on her lower back, feeling and distinguishing the words he wrote bit by bit.

Rice...essence.

绻……God.

picture.

scene.

different.

often.

The mental picture is abnormal.

She raised her eyes in shock and looked at Li Zhou silently.

What's going on now?

Without even saying hello, you just start working right where you are!?
