Chapter 27 Is this Xiao the Demon?
Lying in bed, the image of Chu Lulu's eyes under the moonlight lingered in my mind, seemingly echoing the moon itself.
Chu Lulu woke up at seven o'clock, rubbed her eyes, and looked a little dazed.
She usually gets up around nine o'clock, which is in accordance with the schedule of the independent battalion; otherwise, she would get up at eleven o'clock.
The Independent Battalion's morning training session ends at nine o'clock. If those boys go to the mountains or rivers, they'll definitely bring her prey, which has completely changed her daily routine.
She propped her chin up, trying to lift it, "Why did I impulsively invite someone to breakfast?"
"Isn't lunch delicious?"
"Was dinner not plentiful enough?"
She had a bewildered look on her face, as if she had given up on life.
Xiao Jinli only slept for an hour before communicating with Huang Chendong about the Independent Regiment's training.
Seeing the battalion commander constantly checking his watch, Huang Chendong kindly reminded him, "Sister Lu usually doesn't get up until after nine o'clock. If you look at the time now, it's a bit early."
It's only seven o'clock!
Sister Lu is still dreaming!
It was past nine o'clock, and Aunt Liu had specifically instructed me to adjust the time.
Worried that Sister Lu would sleep too long and affect her mealtime, Aunt Liu specially arranged for them to deliver the game around 9 a.m. so as not to interfere with lunch.
"You know a lot about this?"
Xiao Jinli raised his eyes, but his face remained expressionless.
Huang Chendong shrugged. Apart from his brothers in the Independent Battalion, he was instinctively wary of everyone, especially women.
The only woman who might be close to him is Chu Lulu.
It's not that he has any ulterior motives; he's dedicated his life to the country and will absolutely not get married!
"Just a tiny bit more than you."
That's despicable.
He even compared them using his thumb and forefinger.
Xiao Jinli ignored him and asked, "Tell me about it?"
Judging from the changes in the battalion commander, it seems that Sister Lu has a great influence.
"she……"
"Sister Lu is a very contradictory person."
This was Huang Chendong's first conclusion. He habitually observed others first, and only approached slowly after confirming that there was no danger.
He is someone who was hurt by his own mother.
He is always very careful in his interactions with people.
But he discovered that Sister Lu had two faces, and it wasn't a derogatory term.
"When she is out of danger, just like her name, she is like a spirit deer, innocent, carefree, unaware of human relationships, making people envious of her carefree nature."
"But when she senses hostility and danger, she becomes a cheetah, tearing and destroying."
A very contradictory person, completely different, yet all of these traits converge in one person.
As Huang Chendong spoke, his brow furrowed slightly, as he thought for a moment.
"Battalion Commander, do you know? Sister Lu's intuition is incredibly sharp."
"She is very perceptive of both her prey and people's emotions."
Xiao Jinli listened attentively, whether it was a spirit deer or a cheetah, it was all Chu Lulu.
Huang Chendong looked at his battalion commander and said, "By the way, in the military region, don't even think about bullying Sister Lu, or you'll be in big trouble."
"Especially since you'll go hungry!"
After all, they were an independent battalion without a separate canteen, and no one knew how to cook.
Offending Sister Lu is the same as offending Aunt Liu, and they'll be cut off from food.
Xiao Jinli patted Huang Chendong on the shoulder, his voice low but also tinged with amusement, "I know!"
"The training plan has been revised. Continue training according to the plan."
"By the way, when Wang Ziqiang is too weak to speak, that's when you should make him stop."
Why do you talk so much every day?
Not tired at all!
Huang Chendong's lips twitched. Well, he'd been made to play the bad guy again.
Those bastards should really see that it's not him who's cunning, it's the battalion commander who's cunning!
Chu Lulu resignedly got up and washed up as if she had lost her soul.
There were no more wooden blocks in the house. She had just stepped into the yard when she heard footsteps pacing at the door.
This alley is located in a corner of the residential compound, backed by a mountain. The alley has four courtyards, but three of them are empty.
Under normal circumstances, no one loiters at the door.
"So early?"
Who else could it be but Xiao Jinli?
"You're up?"
The two of them were basically speaking in unison.
They exchanged a glance, then Chu Lulu raised her fist and punched Xiao Jinli on the shoulder. "Help me light the stove?"
"good."
Xiao Jinli felt the touch on his shoulder. The person in front of him gradually became real, no longer the blurry outline he had seen before.
"Ahem, Xiao Jinli, are you even capable?"
"Why don't you move aside, I'll have some?"
Amidst the swirling smoke, tears streamed down Chu Lulu's face as she coughed softly.
Just then...
"Fire?"
"LuLu!"
"LuLu, are you inside?"
"LuLu, can you hear me?"
The anxious calls made Chu Lulu rush out of the house, waving her hand weakly, "She's alive!"
Liu Juan looked her up and down and, finding no injuries, breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's going on? There's so much smoke! It startled me; I thought there was a fire!"
He habitually reached out and pinched Chu Lulu's little face.
No matter how much Aunt Liu feeds her, why won't her little face get fat?
"Ask him."
Chu Lulu pointed to the person who had just come out of the house.
When Liu Juan saw the person, her eyes widened, and she instinctively took a step back.
Why is Xiao the Demon King here?
Xiao Jinli was a little embarrassed. His clothes were covered in black and white stains, and there were several black marks on his face. His hands, needless to say, were completely black.
At first glance, only one word can describe it: disheveled!
"The stove is on fire."
"I opened the window to let some air in, I'll close it in a bit."
Is this Xiao the Demon?
Liu Juan rubbed her eyes in disbelief. No matter how she looked at it, it was Xiao Jinli.
Could it be that I was having too much of a nightmare because I was finally on vacation and wanted to hang out with Lulu?
"You're amazing!"
Chu Lulu gave a thumbs up, completely forgetting how she had just looked down on her.
The main problem is, she can't light it either!
Last time, Aunt Liu almost cried for help to put out the fire, but she managed to keep it afloat.
Well, at least Xiao Jinli set it on fire.
"you……"
Liu Juan snapped out of her daze, looked at this, then at that.
Although she still kept a three-step distance from Xiao the Demon.
"Liu Juan, this is my younger brother."
"Xiao Jinli, this is Liu Juan, my friend."
The two women had become good friends after half a month.
Liu Juan even sold more than fifty bottles of her homemade herbal face cream, each bottle costing seven yuan!
The cost is time, but in this space, time is the last thing she lacks, and she grows all the herbs herself in the herb garden.
For every bottle sold, Liu Juan would receive 50 cents, which was the initial agreement she made.
I made a net profit of over three hundred yuan!
"Battalion Commander Xiao."
Liu Juan nodded from a distance, which was her way of saying hello.
When Xiao Jinli looked at others, his cold gaze remained unchanged, and he nodded.
