Chapter 296: You still dare to despise me?
It took almost a whole day to clean up the battlefield.
On the way back, Xiao Ning looked at Shang Xi several times and saw that he was still calm and did not feel uncomfortable at all.
She opened her lips and finally said, "Are you tired?"
Actually, I’m still a little tired.
After all, his injury was not fully healed, and he pulled the wound several times, causing his back to throb with pain.
But Shang Xi didn't want Xiao Ning to look down on him.
"good."
This great victory brought laughter back to the depressed Cangzhou City.
When Xiao Ning and others entered the city, the people lined the streets to welcome them, with smiles on their faces that had not been seen for a long time.
Their home was saved.
The death of their blood relatives was avenged.
All those bastards were killed!
He died outside Cangzhou City, and the deceased heroes must have seen it!
They can rest in peace now...
Some people on the street were crying with joy, laughing and crying at the same time.
Seeing the people like this, the soldiers felt very uncomfortable.
When they first arrived, they secretly complained in their hearts that the general was marching too fast and did not even have time to pee.
But even if they traveled at that speed, Cangzhou City was already broken by the time they arrived.
If it were any later...
The soldiers did not dare to think too much.
But when he met the people's admiring and trusting gazes, he couldn't help but avoid them.
After returning to his residence, Xiao Ning took off his heavy armor, washed his hands and face, and was about to go to eat when he was stopped by Shang Xi.
"Treat the wound first."
He pushed Xiao Ning to sit down and rolled up her sleeves.
She used strong liquor to clean the wound, and her arm flinched slightly in pain.
Shang Xi wiped the area around the wound with a special medicine, sprinkled some medicine powder on it, and bandaged the wound.
Xiao Ning looked at the bow tied on her arm and was silent.
"If you tie it like this, there will be a big bulge here when I put my sleeve down."
Shang Xi: "It doesn't affect anything."
Xiao Ning: "...It's not pretty."
Shang Xi: "Why do you need to be so beautiful? I don't dislike you."
Xiao Ning: "...I despise it myself."
Shang Xi glared at her, "How dare you despise me?"
Xiao Ning: “…”
No, it makes her look sloppy, so she can't dislike it?
But when he met Shang Xi's gaze, Xiao Ning thought about it and decided to forget it. It wasn't a big deal. It didn't matter if he was a little sloppy.
So she said, "Actually, I don't mind it too much. After all, it was made by my baby himself."
Shang Xi's heart sank slightly when he heard the word "baby".
That time when she was drunk she also called him "baby".
Such a name...
Shang Xi's mind was shaken, and he stared at Xiao Ning in a daze.
Seeing him in a daze, Xiao Ning smiled and moved closer to him, "Why are you in a daze? Aren't you going to eat?"
Shang Xi suddenly reached out, pressed the person into his arms and hugged him tightly.
As far as I can remember, no one has ever called him that.
His biological mother... Madam Shen, whether she had ever called out to him, he didn't know. Ever since he could remember, he had been alone in that cold palace.
Xiao Ning didn't expect that the man would have such a big reaction to the word "baby".
So he raised his hand and gently patted his back.
"If you like, I'll call you baby every day from now on."
Shang Xi said in a muffled voice: "Who likes it? I'm not a child."
Still stubborn.
"So the baby doesn't like this name. I won't call you that anymore. Can we go eat first?"
She was almost starving to death...
Shang Xi: “…”
He let go of Xiao Ning, took her hand, and was about to go out.
Xiao Ning looked at his hands intertwined with each other's fingers, wanting to say something, but in the end said nothing.
When the two of them arrived at the kitchen, everyone else was eating.
When they saw Xiao Ning and Shang Xi, they all greeted them loudly.
His eyes fell on their interlocked hands, and he paused in greeting before continuing his conversation as usual.
"General, Your Highness, please eat quickly. We have some delicious meat today!"
The soldier held up the bowl and showed Xiao Ning the slices of meat in it.
Xiao Ning's eyes lit up, "That would be great!"
After getting the meal, Xiao Ning and Shang Xi ate together. Seeing that Xiao Ning liked to eat meat, Shang Xi picked out all the meat in his bowl and gave it to her.
Xiao Ning stopped him and said, "I'm full, you eat yours!"
Shang Xi said: "It's not delicious. I don't like it."
Xiao Ning said, "You have to eat it even if you don't like it. You've been eating light food since you got injured, and you've lost a lot of weight. It hurts to touch you."
Shang Xi: “…”
Xiao Ning picked up the food that Shang Xi picked up for her and put it back into his bowl.
"Be good and eat more."
Shang Xi: "So you like fatter ones? Like Lu Li?"
Xiao Ning: "...Lu Li is not fat."
Shang Xi said unhappily: "So you really like him like that?"
Xiao Ning was a little speechless.
How come this person is jealous of everything?
She picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and stuffed it into Shang Xi's mouth, "Eat it quickly!"
Shang Xi was forced to shut his mouth.
Xiao Ning then buried his head and continued to eat.
She was really hungry and felt like she could eat a whole cow.
Shang Xi chewed the food in his mouth and watched Xiao Ning concentrate on eating quickly.
The bowl of rice was quickly finished.
Xiao Ning touched his belly and looked at Shang Xi, who was still eating leisurely.
Seeing Xiao Ning stop, he asked, "Didn't you say you were hungry? Why don't you go get another bowl?"
Xiao Ning touched his stomach and said, "That's enough. Don't eat too much, otherwise it will affect your physical strength."
Shang Xi said "Oh" and continued to eat slowly.
Xiao Ning held his chin and watched Shang Xi eat.
This demeanor is so elegant that you never get tired of looking at it.
Shang Xi felt her gaze and raised his head, only to see her looking at him with her chin in her hand, her eyes a bit... lustful.
Not only did Shang Xi not feel offended, but his heart beat faster and he felt sweet in his heart.
The way Aning looks at him means she likes him.
After the meal, the two returned to the house. Xiao Ning wanted to wash himself. After all, he had fought in a battle, and his body was sticky with blood and sweat.
She glanced at Shang Xi, who had already sat down at the table and started reading a book, and said, "Go out for a walk."
Shang Xi: “?”
Didn’t you just come back from a stroll?
Also, what do you mean by asking him to go out for a stroll?
He stared at Xiao Ning suspiciously, "What are you going to do behind my back?"
Xiao Ning was very calm, "What can I do behind your back?"
Shang Xi: "Then why did you send me away?"
Xiao Ning kissed him on the lips and said, "Be obedient."
Shang Xi didn't want to obey, but Xiao Ning had already pushed him out of the room.
He stood in the yard, watching Xiao Ning take a basin, fetch water from the well, go into the house and close the door.
Shang Xi: “…”
It turns out that it needs to be scrubbed.
He wanted to go in, but before he reached the door, he was stopped by Xiao Ning's personal guards.
"Your Highness, the general asked you to go for a stroll."
Shang Xi: “…”
What are you strolling about?
Who wants to stroll!
He stared coldly at the guards, then turned around and stood by the wall with his arms folded.
The sound of water splashing could be heard from time to time in the house, and Shang Xi couldn't help but imagine some beautiful scenes.
He still hasn't seen Xiao Ning's body yet...
Xiao Ning didn't want to look at his own body.
Do impotent people really have no desire for the person they like?
He is always the one who is most enthusiastic about the job.
