"Sizzle."
Guan Yuxi's sleeve was torn.
She glared at Chu Zheling and sighed inwardly at her bad luck.
This is yet another deviation from the original book!
The book describes the day after the original owner of the body and Leng Lie consummated their relationship.
That scumbag Chu Zheling then came to berate her, saying she was shameless and unfaithful.
Furthermore, with Bai Qin constantly egging him on, the original owner of this body finally made the heartless decision to send Leng Lie to prison.
Now, this bastard is trying to cause trouble again?
"Yu Xi, wait a minute, I really have something to tell you."
Chu Zheling dared not pull her any further, so he quickly ran ahead of her.
Unexpectedly, Guan Yuxi was walking too fast, and in order to avoid rushing into his arms, she stopped abruptly and fell backward.
"Yu Xi, be careful."
What a jinx!
Guan Yuxi wished she could kick him a couple of times to tell him to shut up.
Just when she thought she was going to fall into the cold muddy ditch, a strong and powerful arm caught her.
Leng Lie pulled her into his arms and scolded, "How could you be so careless?"
Guan Yuxi hugged his strong waist, like a child who had found someone to support her.
She snuggled against his broad chest, feeling wronged. "Why did you take so long to get here?"
It's all his fault. I was just walking along peacefully, and he had to scare me.
She mumbled in a coquettish tone and made coquettish gestures.
It inexplicably calmed my cold and fierce heart.
God knows how scared and impulsive he was when he saw the two of them standing together talking.
I'm afraid of losing her.
I was so impulsive that I wanted to kill him right then and there!
"What does Chu Zhiqing want to say to my lover?"
He pulled her closer, his tone carrying a strong warning.
Chu Zheling frowned. "You are Yu Xi's husband?"
I want to talk to Yuxi, but I don't want to talk to you. What right do you have to interfere?
He paused, then added, "By the way, even if you get married, she still has the right to make friends."
That tone is really irritating.
Leng Lie rolled up his sleeves.
He never liked to argue about things that could be resolved with fists.
Guan Yuxi grabbed him.
Leng Lie's gaze suddenly darkened.
First, I'm not your friend;
Second, I don't want to be your friend.
So, if there's anything you want to say, say it in front of my husband.
"Fine, don't tell me then, I don't want to hear it anyway!"
Guan Yuxi held Leng Lie's hand and succinctly expressed her attitude.
The cold, harsh rain in her heart hadn't even fallen a few drops before it was dried by the warmth in Guan Yuxi's words.
He felt like he had inexhaustible energy.
"Brother Lie, let's go home."
Guan Yuxi shook his hand and said pitifully, "But please don't make me eat anymore, or I'll be stuffed to death."
Leng Lie glanced at Chu Zheling, then picked up Guan Yuxi in his arms.
"Why did you run out onto such a wet road?"
"Not only did my shoes get wet, but I almost rolled into the ditch."
"Didn't you just run into it?"
......
Guan Yuxi nestled against his chest, nodding occasionally.
Like an incredibly well-behaved kitten.
She had never heard him say so much at once before.
Is he jealous?
Guan Yuxi felt a sweet warmth in her heart.
However, that sweetness soon turned into bitterness.
Because Leng Lie's hands were like iron clamps, gripping her painfully.
"Put me down."
Guan Yuxi glared at him angrily.
She struggled to get off the ground, didn't even glance at Leng Lie, and turned to leave.
Leng Lie followed silently behind her.
Guan Yuxi kicked at the dirt on the roadside as she walked.
Before long, her shoes were covered in mud, making it very difficult for her to walk.
Leng Lie stepped forward and picked her up, saying, "Be careful not to fall."
"None of your business?"
Guan Yuxi twisted her neck and refused to look at him.
But in the end, it didn't struggle to get down.
Leng Lie carried her home and, seeing that her shoes and socks were wet, brought her hot water to soak her feet.
Guan Yuxi's heart softened, and she no longer wanted to argue with him.
What were you angry about just now?
"I don't."
Seeing that someone wouldn't admit to being petty and narrow-minded.
Guan Yuxi lifted her shirt, revealing a striking crimson fingerprint on her fair and soft waist.
Leng Lie was stunned. "I did this?"
Guan Yuxi glared at him, snorted coldly, and stopped talking.
So, she was angry for a whole day, but the other person had no idea what she did wrong and didn't say anything.
I thought they were just tolerating her childish temper?
"sorry.
I was just... a little jealous.
Leng Lie knelt at her feet and pulled her hand to pinch himself.
Guan Yuxi looked at him and said irritably, "Jealousy?"
"Yes, jealousy."
I'm jealous that he's better off than me.
He was jealous that you had once liked him.
I'm jealous that you two look like a perfect couple standing together.
Leng Lie slammed his hand against the sharp corner of the table, his face full of guilt. "I'm sorry, Xiao Xi."
I said I wouldn't hurt you again, and I broke my promise again.
"what you do?"
Guan Yuxi was startled.
Leng Lie's hand was stabbed and bled profusely.
Guan Yuxi was about to go find some cotton wool when he stopped her, saying, "It's okay, I'm tough and I'll heal quickly."
Only by experiencing more pain than you can I prevent myself from hurting you again next time.
Guan Yuxi rolled her eyes at him and said lightly, "As long as we pay enough attention, we can avoid such accidental injuries."
Otherwise, every time you hurt or cripple me.
If you make your situation even worse, the two of us will be stuck at home starving.
