Chapter 377: What’s your reaction?
Tu Huan responded casually, exited the photo album, and looked up from the screen.
Seeing the serious expression on Xie Yuchuan's face, she realized that the instant messaging was not connected, and he probably didn't hear her voice just now.
"What did you say?"
Tu Huan, who turned on the instant messaging function, suddenly asked.
Xie Yuchuan's expression changed slightly.
Even in the eyes hidden in the night, a dark light flashed by.
"Nothing, is the House God still leaving tonight?"
He lightly suppressed the strange emotion that had just arisen in his mind and changed the subject to show concern.
Tu Huan watched him adjust himself quickly from a distance, narrowed her eyes, and said with a relaxed expression, "Han Qiguang naturally can't hear me, but I have a way to make him understand what I mean."
Xie Yuchuan's mind, which had just calmed down, trembled slightly when he heard the words, and a look of embarrassment flashed across his face.
It turns out that the household god heard it.
Tu Huan didn't ask any more questions about this trivial matter. Following Xie Yu's previous words, she replied, "I came to see if there is any problem on your side. If there is nothing else, I will go back."
Xie Yuchuan subconsciously raised his eyes, wanting to say that everything was fine on his side, but when he opened his mouth, the words that were on the tip of his tongue seemed to be blocked by something poisonous and he couldn't say them.
My brain and heart seemed to be twisted into two forces, unable to work together.
Tu Huan was a little puzzled. Why didn't you say anything?
Rechecked the instant messaging function, no problem.
"Xie Yuchuan?"
The questioning voice of the family god rang in his ears. Xie Yuchuan lowered his eyes, and his long, thick, curly eyelashes covered the depth and thoughts in his eyes.
After a moment of silence, he raised his head and looked towards the place opposite to the position of the "house god".
Although he knew that the household god should be just a few steps away from him, Xie Yuchuan's natural intuition almost made him deliberately avoid the fact that he could sense where the household god was.
Perhaps, once the gods realize it, he may not even have this little bit of "judgment" next time.
Just like the fragrance that suddenly disappeared before.
"I am here."
Oh, so I can hear it.
Tu Huan thought to herself.
"What does the household god want?"
Tu Huan smiled faintly, "Nothing, I noticed you haven't spoken for a long time, it seems like you have something on your mind."
Xie Yuchuan stood tall with his hands on the railing.
"It's just a few distracting thoughts. The family god doesn't need to take it to heart."
"Are you okay?"
Xie Yuchuan shook his head lightly and said in a firm tone: "It's nothing serious."
"That's good." Tu Huan looked at him and said.
A gust of cold wind blew over, forcing Xie Yuchuan to close his eyes, his face feeling cold. However, the chill only lasted for a moment, and was replaced by a warm current.
The concerned voice of the household god rang out again beside him.
"It's too cold outside late at night. Since there's nothing serious going on, why not go inside and rest early? Don't you have something to do tomorrow?"
"Okay, thank you for your concern, I will return to my room later."
Xie Yuchuan agreed readily, but his feet seemed to be rooted to the second floor and his body did not move at all.
Tu Huan looked at him and always felt that Xie Yuchuan's condition tonight was a little strange?
It's not just her feeling.
In fact, even Xie Yuchuan himself was regretting his strange reaction at this moment.
I knew I should say goodbye to the household gods and go back to my room to sleep, but my body didn't listen to me at all and refused to move.
The family god would definitely find it strange to see him like this, right? Xie Yuchuan felt depressed.
Since when did he become like this?
Deep down in my heart, I don't want to say goodbye to the family god at this moment.
The night is still long and it seems that we can talk to each other a lot.
The family god also stayed with Han Qiguang for a long time...
Xie Yuchuan didn't move, and didn't look like he wanted to go back to sleep. Tu Huan leaned against the back of the stag-horn cart and looked at him for a while. She propped her chin up and stared at his face, which was flickering in light and darkness. After thinking for a while, she asked tentatively, "Since you can't sleep, do you want to go out for a walk?"
"go out?"
Xie Yuchuan turned around unexpectedly, and his sight just brushed past Tu Huan's and slid past.
Tu Huan almost made eye contact with him and was stunned.
Xie Yuchuan's voice was slightly loud, so much so that Xiong Jiushan, who had just stepped over the threshold downstairs, heard it clearly.
Xiong Jiushan looked up.
Xie Yuchuan lowered his head when he heard the voice.
Their eyes met in the air.
Xiong Jiushan's already dark face was furrowed with brows. He raised his voice slightly and said in a gruff voice, "General Xie, why are you not sleeping so late at night? What are you thinking about in the cold wind?"
The subtext is, why don't you stay in the house and come out to talk nonsense?
Go out again.
Where did you figure it out?
Xie Yuchuan looked down at him and didn't explain that he didn't feel cold at all with the household god beside him.
Tu Huan held onto the side of the carriage and leaned out to look down. The originally tall and burly Xiong Jiushan was now standing at the feet of four spirit deer. His gray-black clothes blended into the night and were not clearly visible. If it weren't for his eyes that seemed particularly bright, she would have almost missed him.
The shadow of the Penglai Fairy Feather Deer Antler Carriage blocked Tu Huan's sight and also gave Xiong Jiushan downstairs an inexplicable sense of oppression.
He subconsciously looked up at the sky, and there was nothing but the clear night sky and stars.
Why do I always feel like there is something above my head? This is strange, Xiong Jiushan thought.
A low questioning voice came from above my head.
"The adults are back?"
Xiong Jiushan stood below and glanced at him strangely. He was so polite that it made people feel uneasy.
He raised his hand and pointed towards his room, and said in a deep voice: "Since you can't sleep, come over and talk?"
"good."
Seeing Xie Yuchuan respond, Xiong Jiushan turned and walked towards the stairs, climbing up step by step.
The narrow floorboards made a creaking sound. Xiong Jiushan took big steps and quickly reached his door. When he turned around, he saw that Xie Yuchuan not only did not come over immediately, but instead took a step back with a solemn expression, as if he was cupping his hands and bowing slightly forward. It was obvious that he was not in his usual serious state.
Xiong Jiushan came back to his senses with a start, quickly put down his hand that was pushing the door, turned around and stared at Xie Yuchuan's actions.
Until Xie Yuchuan stood up, looked up at him, walked over and came to him.
The two of them entered the house one after the other.
After a while, the servant outside brought in a pot of hot tea and left.
Xiong Jiushan held the teapot and couldn't help but glance outside twice before he looked away and lowered his head to pour two cups of tea.
He was still waiting for Xie Yuchuan to explain, but Xie Yuchuan didn't even say a word after entering the house, so he had to trouble him to ask in person.
"The house god is here?"
Xie Yuchuan had already sat down. Hearing this, he looked up at the opposite side. The gloomy look on Xiong Jiushan's dark face when he first came back was gone, replaced by a hint of curiosity, which was different from his emotion that he could not clearly distinguish at the moment.
He seemed to have seen this look on Han Qiguang's face before...
Xie Yuchuan was stunned for a moment by the sudden thought that came to his mind.
Xiong Jiushan narrowed his eyes with a strange expression.
"What's your reaction?"
He took a sip of hot tea to warm himself, pointed at the door, and said in a deep voice: "I saw you outside just now, with your face facing empty and your hands folded. Aren't you communicating with the gods?"
Xie Yuchuan came back to his senses instantly, concealed the strange look in his eyes, and returned to normal.
"Well, the family god has arrived."
Upon seeing this, Xiong Jiushan immediately put down his teacup, stood up and bowed. No matter which direction, the gods were powerful and omnipresent, so it was not surprising to be polite.
Xie Yuchuan looked at him and couldn't help but frown.
My chest feels a bit blocked, what's going on?
