He even smiled, his expression conveying a somewhat indescribable feeling.
"Here, since you like spicy food the most, eat more."
Although Shen Hua felt that he was acting a little strange, she didn't think too much about it. She nodded, put the food in her mouth, and the spicy flavor mixed with other tastes spread in her mouth. Immediately, Shen Hua squinted her eyes in enjoyment.
"It's delicious, you should eat too, it's all cooked."
"So Xiaohua likes spicy food. What a coincidence, I like spicy food too."
Zimo quickly picked up a piece, and just as he was about to put it in his bowl, Chen Hua picked up a piece herself. Seeing that he was still standing, she kindly reminded him, "You should sit down and eat too. This meal is to thank you."
Zimo said sweetly, "Alright then, I won't stand on ceremony with Xiaohua."
Xie Sichen frowned. He understood what Shen Hua meant by thanking him. Had something happened?
Perhaps something really happened while he was away, and that made Shen Hua owe this kid a favor.
The chopsticks were moving, and only Chen Hua and the fox were eating seriously; the other two had different thoughts.
The meal lasted for more than three hours. Shen Hua was fine, but the fox was in trouble. Seeing Shen Hua eating spicy food so deliciously, it followed suit and found it quite tasty. It couldn't stop eating it and ended up spitting out spicy food.
Xie Sichen was also sweating, his expression changed slightly, and his lips were pursed, as if he was a little uncomfortable.
"Turns out we all like spicy food."
Looking at the little spicy soup left, Chen Hua sighed and said, "The fox should eat less spicy food in the future. It's not used to eating so much at once. It needs to be practiced slowly."
That evening, Xie Sichen asked about his doubts from earlier that day.
"Chen Hua, did something happen to you today?"
Speaking of this, Shen Hua remembered what she wanted to tell him and quickly said, "Someone tried to kill me today, and it seems to be someone from a powerful family. But I haven't made any enemies. Do you think it could be one of those people who wanted to kill you?"
As she spoke, she took out the hidden weapon she had brought that day and showed it to Xie Sichen.
Xie Sichen stared at the hidden weapon with a gloomy look in his eyes. He had thought those people would quiet down for a while, but it seemed he had underestimated them.
"Don't worry, this won't happen again."
"Yes! I'm just saying this to warn you to be careful; they might not let this go."
After Shen Hua left, Xie Sichen stepped out of the barrier and summoned his men.
"Young Master."
"Go and investigate what other things we can start taking action on."
"yes."
"Investigate Zimo again."
"yes."
...
"Sister Chenhua, Sister Wenwen, did you see that? We, all three of us have been chosen! Ahhhhh!"
Xi Yi was browsing the forum when she saw the list. She nervously scrolled through it, and then she saw their names. She almost jumped for joy.
Shen Hua raised an eyebrow, opened it and took a look. Although she had a premonition, she was relieved to see it.
Shang Wenwen stared blankly at the list, lost in thought.
She was rarely in the dormitory, but Xi Yi and Shang Wenwen were always there. She overheard Xi Yi whispering that Shang Wenwen was becoming more and more diligent, and that she could even see her working hard in the middle of the night.
Anyway, Shen Hua felt that as long as you have perseverance, it's normal to do this. She vaguely remembered that she had done it before.
She rejected the idea as soon as it came to mind, believing that she was born with extraordinary abilities and unparalleled talent, so there was no need for her to work so hard.
Moreover, once she starts meditating, she stays up for at least several days, and the path of cultivation is inherently difficult.
"You two are so calm. Am I the only one who's excited? No way! You two should get up and be happy with me too. Come on, let's show off."
Chen Hua: ...
Shang Minwen:......
Is this girl so happy she's gone mad? Going out to show off like this, isn't she afraid of being ganged up on?
In the end, Shen Hua and Shang Wenwen were still dragged out by her, under the pretext of taking a walk in the school and waiting for the homeroom teacher's notification, so that they could get cocky.
Along the way, everyone was looking at their phones. Some people jumped for joy, while others were somewhat sad. There were only one or two people in the former group, but many in the latter.
There weren't many people selected this time. Only 15 people were selected for the team competition, and no more than 10 people were selected for the individual competition. Otherwise, why would people say that everyone would fight tooth and nail to get in? The competition is fierce.
Before she even had a chance to speak, Xi Yi was already rubbing her hands together with smug satisfaction. She was so happy; she had only been here a short time and had already encountered such a wonderful thing. How could she not be happy?
“Sister Chen Hua, Sister Wenwen…”
"No, don't say anything yet, your brother is here to see you."
Xi Yi followed their gaze and indeed saw her brother. He was watching her from a short distance away, his expression shifting, looking at her as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Xiyi:......
"Brother, I can go now. What's with that look?"
Xi Yi went over and gave her brother a quick ear-pulling.
"Xiyi, I'm your brother."
"I know! That's why you should congratulate me. Look at the way you're looking at me. Don't worry, I'll bring you something nice back."
"Put my ears away first, let's find a place to talk."
Xi Yi knew her brother was about to start lecturing her, but this time she didn't resist. Instead, she let go of Shen Hua and the others, said something, and followed Northwest.
Shen Hua and Shang Wenwen looked at each other, bewildered. They had been pulled out of the way, but now that the people who had pulled them were gone, they didn't know whether they should continue their walk.
"How about we continue walking?" Shen Hua was the first to speak.
Shang Wenwen nodded, and then the two of them walked in silence.
"Little sister, have you ever experienced anything unpleasant in the past?"
Finally, Shang Wenwen spoke up.
After thinking for a while, Shen Hua said, "No, I usually don't let anything or anyone that makes me unhappy appear in front of me. If it does, I just beat them up and make myself feel good, so there's nothing unpleasant about it."
Shang Wenwen thought about what she had done in Liucun before, and showed her first genuine smile in a long time.
"You know, being with you, even without saying a word, makes me feel very comfortable, just like the sun."
Shen Hua quickly searched herself to see if she had any problems, since she could make people feel comfortable.
Her action amused Shang Wenwen, who reached out and ruffled her hair.
"I've heard that there's a very powerful master in Willow Village. I'm planning to go and become her apprentice. Would you like to go?"
Chen Hua: ...
Isn't that her? She's become this famous?
How did you hear that?
"You don't seem surprised at all?" Shang Wenwen asked curiously.
Shen Hua quickly put on a surprised expression and said, "Surprised? How could I not be surprised? I'm just curious how you knew. I've never heard of such news before."
