"Zhiliao, I... When did I grind my teeth? You live with your parents, and you don't live in the same room with me?"
Xia He felt a little aggrieved, and he didn't want to be vilified in front of the people he admired.
"It's okay. At worst I can come early tomorrow morning." Xie Heng said.
"That's so much trouble, going back and forth. If you had that time, you could have taught us a few more tricks." Xia He said.
He really wanted to learn more. "Sister, Brother Xie is a good man and has been helping us. Please let him stay."
Xie Heng looked at Xia Zhiliao with a smile on his face.
Xia Zhiliao wanted to rush over and bite him.
[Despicable, shameless, insidious, actually trying to divert the conflict. If I don't agree, my second brother will think I'm ignorant.]
"Zhi Liao, you have always been very sensible, why are you not so kind to Brother Xie... Is there any misunderstanding between you two?" Xia Hai asked.
"The last time I saw her, my men were a little fierce. Maybe they scared her." Xie Heng explained lightly.
Xia Zhiliao snorted coldly, knowing that Xie Heng was acting, "Yeah, Brother Xie's men were holding knives, I thought he was going to kill me."
"How could that be?" Before Xie Heng could speak, Xia He had already defended him, "He is a martial arts expert and has no grudge against you, so why would he want to kill you? And if he really wanted to kill you, he would have already attacked you in the past two days."
Xia Zhiliao complained that Xie Heng really played the game of winning people's hearts very well.
but……
What her second brother said made sense. She was nervous when she thought about his identity, so she didn't even think about it carefully.
"I'll stay and teach your second brother a few more moves. He also wants to protect you!" Xie Heng said.
Xia Zhiliao glanced at him. Since he had given her the reason, how could she refuse?
"Then you really won't hurt my family?" Xia Zhiliao knew that the words of a big villain were not worth believing, but at this moment she still wanted to ask.
Xie Heng smiled faintly and asked back, "Why would I hurt your family? As your second brother said, if I wanted to harm you, you would have died several times already."
Well, she was speechless.
"I... I'll go see how Fourth Uncle's medicine powder is being ground. You... you guys should learn well." Xia Zhiliao said and ran away.
The way its short legs dangle is kind of cute.
It was late at night and Xie Heng was lying on his wooden bed, tossing and turning.
He felt a little regretful.
People should listen to advice.
Although Xia He didn't grind his teeth, the brat went to bed without washing his feet, and he still smelled bad even under the quilt. The other two were not much better.
He once thought that his quilt should be turned inside out, but when he turned it over, it still had the same unpleasant smell.
But this is already a good quilt that Old Mrs. Xia took out of the house.
It was a bit boring at first, after all, this long night was a bit hard to endure.
Unexpectedly, the little girl began to mutter to herself.
Xie Heng listened attentively. Although he lived in a side room which was a bit far from the little girl's room, he could still hear it vaguely.
At this time, the Xia family, who were farmers, were already fast asleep.
Xia Zhiliao also fell asleep, but something was on his mind and he woke up after a while.
【oops!】
Xie Heng frowned as she sighed. Why was such a little kid always so bitter and resentful? What was she sighing about?
[What is this bad guy trying to do? Why does he not seem that bad? Is it an illusion? That's not right. He has no reason to lie to me. What's his purpose?]
The corners of Xie Heng's lips moved slightly, and he turned sideways, away from the headache-inducing smell.
Although it's just self-deception.
[Is he trying to use my family to please Lu Seyan? Hiss...]
Xie Heng frowned, really confused as to why the little girl always associated him with Lu Seyan.
Isn't his attitude today obvious enough?
Even if he had thought about respecting Lu Seyan before, it was because he felt that she was his savior. Since the truth was not like that, he would not have anything to do with Lu Seyan.
Xie Heng couldn't stand the suffocation anymore and was ready to get up and go outside to get some fresh air.
“Ahem!”
Xia Zhiliao heard some noise in the yard, and it was Xie Heng.
She just happened to have something to ask Xie Heng.
Anyway, her parents were asleep and her brothers were not around to cause trouble. In order to protect the whole family, she had to go and talk to him.
Xia Zhiliao climbed down from the kang wearing a cotton-padded jacket, moving in small steps, muttering to himself.
[How should I tell him? Should I tell him that I stayed up all night waiting for him? No, no, he would be so proud of himself? Should I tell him that I got up at night and we met by chance?]
Xie Heng had never seen a child like her, and he was not like her when he was a child.
"Are you getting up to go to the bathroom too?" Xie Heng saw her and interrupted her pre-prepared lines.
"Ah... um!" Xia Zhiliao pulled the corners of his mouth stiffly and yawned to cover it up, "You... why aren't you sleeping? Is it because my second brother is grinding his teeth? I told you a long time ago that you can't get used to living in my house."
Xie Heng just looked at her without saying anything.
Xia Zhiliao felt uneasy, "What...what do you want to do?"
Xie Heng smiled faintly, "If I want to kill you, you can't escape!"
Just when Xia Zhiliao was panicking, Xie Heng said again: "I'm just teasing you. I won't kill you."
“Is this true or false?”
"Really." Xie Heng's tone was firm, and then he took out the bracelet from his arms, and Xia Zhiliao's gaze also followed over.
"This jade bracelet saved my life."
Xia Zhiliao nodded. It didn’t matter. It had nothing to do with her. What was important was getting her bracelet back.
Xie Heng was somewhat dissatisfied. Was the jade bracelet the only thing in her eyes?
It's rare that I have the urge to talk.
“Ahem…”
"Oh, it...how did it save your life? A bracelet!" Xia Zhiliao asked perfunctorily.
"I was seriously injured and unconscious. When I woke up, I only had this jade bracelet with me. I thought it was the owner of the jade bracelet who saved me."
Xia Zhiliao nodded. Is this part in the novel?
She didn't remember. Oh, if she had known that she would be transmigrated into this terrible novel, she would have finished reading it no matter what. No, she would have at least memorized the entire text ten times.
"I heard that a young lady from the Lu family passed by the place where I was ambushed that day. At first I thought that Miss Lu was the one who saved me."
Xia Zhiliao looked at Xie Heng, so he now knew that Lu Seyan was not his savior.
Shit, that's not the plot.
"But I sent someone to check again, and she passed by at the wrong time, so it wasn't her."
[Of course it's not her, how...how do you know now? ]
It was a little dark at night, and Xie Heng couldn't see Xia Zhiliao's puzzled expression.
"I have been looking for the owner of this bracelet for a long time but couldn't find it. Since you like it and the antidote saved my life last time, I will give it to you."
Xia Zhiliao nodded vigorously, "Thank you, brother. You are such a good person."
However, just as she reached out to take it, Xie Heng deliberately raised the jade bracelet a little higher.
Xia Zhiliao came up empty-handed.
"I still have a condition!"
