Chapter 120 Strange

When their arms touched, the man's scorching body temperature came through the thin clothes, and Jiang Shu's heart shuddered, and she couldn't help but think of last night.

The lingering picture in her mind and the heart-wrenching dream.

"I... I'm fine." Jiang Shu quickly withdrew her hand, not daring to look at Yu Zheng, and got on the carriage as if escaping.

Looking at her figure leaving in a panic, Yu Zheng lowered his eyes and stared at his arm in a daze.

What did he do to scare her?

Yu Zheng recalled it from beginning to end, and he couldn't figure it out after thinking about it in the carriage for an afternoon.

When the sun was setting, the team arrived at the post station.

"Boss, we're here." Tan Yu patted Jiang Shu lightly.

Jiang Shu was half asleep, and asked dazedly: "Where are we?"

"Post station." Tan Yu opened the car door.

Jiang Shu looked out and saw Yu Zheng getting off the car, looking back at her.

When their eyes met, Jiang Shu remembered that she had just woken up, with messy hair and sleepy eyes, and must have looked very ugly, so she quickly reached out to close the car door.

"Boss?" Tan Yu, who was about to get off the car, was puzzled.

Jiang Shu said, "Help me tidy up my appearance."

"Oh." Tan Yu responded blankly and started to help Jiang Shu tidy up.

Yu Zheng, who was standing in front of the post station, looked at the closed door, and more and more doubts came to his mind.

After frowning and thinking for a moment, Yu Zheng walked towards Jiang Shu's carriage.

After Jiang Shu in the car had finished tidying up, Tan Yu opened the door again and got off the car first.

Jiang Shu looked up and saw that Yu Zheng was gone, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She got out of the carriage and reached out to the side out of habit.

A large, warm palm caught her delicate hand, gently squeezed it and helped her get out of the carriage.

How did Tan Yu's hand get bigger?

After Jiang Shu landed and stood firmly, he looked at it and was so shocked that he couldn't speak clearly: "Prince...Prince."

He pulled his hand back with a "swish". Jiang Shu wanted to step back to create some distance, but his heel kicked the horse stool and his body fell backwards uncontrollably.

Jiang Shu cried out in panic and stretched out her hands to grab the wheel.

Unfortunately, she didn't catch it, so she could only resign herself to closing her eyes and preparing to fall on her butt.

In a hurry, Yu Zheng stretched out his long arm to grab her dancing hand and pulled her back with force.

"Bang!" With a muffled sound, Jiang Shu bumped into Yu Zheng's chest and fell into his arms.

Yu Zheng subconsciously hugged her waist and helped her to stand.

The two of them were close to each other, and Jiang Shu heard Yu Zheng's strong but slightly fast heartbeat, as well as her own.

"Boom! Boom!" Both of their hearts were beating wildly, and they were stunned for a moment.

To the others, this scene looked like a passionate embrace.

Zhuiyun, Zhufeng and Tan Yu were all stunned.

"You..." Yu Zheng just opened his mouth, and the person in his arms suddenly broke free from his arms and ran away with her head down.

"Boss." Tan Yu hurriedly chased after him.

Yu Zheng looked at Jiang Shu who was running away like a frightened deer, and his heart ached.

Is she resisting his approach like this?

Yu Zheng, who had been admired since childhood and tried his best to keep a distance from others, was hit hard at that moment.

It turned out that being disliked and rejected by others was so uncomfortable.

Yu Zhengjun's face was cold and his lips were tightly pursed. His expression was frighteningly ugly. Zhuiyun and Zhufeng did not dare to say a word.

After entering the post station and settling down, Jiang Shu hid in the house and did not go out. Even dinner was brought into the house by Tan Yu.

Yu Zheng sat alone at a table in the lobby, looking at the dishes on the table without any appetite.

At night, the post station was silent. Zhuiyun knocked on Yu Zheng's door lightly, then pushed the door and walked in.

"Master, the fish is on the hook."

Yu Zheng put down the scroll in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Don't make a fuss, try to delay it as long as possible."

"Yes, master, rest early." Zhuiyun bowed and retreated, closing the door.

Yu Zheng sighed, got up, put out the candle, undressed and went to bed.

But after closing his eyes for a long time, Yu Zheng still couldn't sleep at all. All he could think about was Jiang Shu's attitude and his actions to avoid him, and the more he thought about it, the more upset he felt.

Over the years, he has faced all kinds of open and secret struggles, and he has never been troubled by the world's major events to the point of insomnia. But Jiang Shu's reaction today made him restless and unable to fall asleep.

During the long night, Jiang Shu also tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

The conditions at the post station were limited, so Jiang Shu and Tan Yu lived in the same room. Although there were two beds, if there was a little noise, it would still disturb each other.

Therefore, Jiang Shu was very careful every time he turned over, for fear of being noticed by Tan Yu.

As soon as she closed her eyes, the sound of Yu Zheng's heartbeat echoed in her mind, deafening.

And the touch of Yu Zheng's chest, the warmth of his palms... made Jiang Shu's face burn.

She must be crazy.

When Yu Zheng saved her last year, he also touched her. But at that time, she just thought it was impolite and didn't have any other thoughts.

Also on the Lantern Festival, when Yu Zheng held her hand, although her heart was slightly moved, she was still able to restrain herself.

And then there was the day at Lingyin Temple, when she and Yu Zheng traveled to the cave together and an accident happened.

Thinking about it carefully, the change seemed to have started from that time.

But at that time, Jiang Shu just regarded the slight difference as "men and women should not touch each other", and didn't think about it carefully.

Later, every time they met, bit by bit, the changes accumulated silently.

Until today, Yu Zheng's touch made Jiang Shu feel something was obviously different.

She knew that something was different.

How would she face Yu Zheng in the future?

Jiang Shu couldn't think of an answer, so she pulled the quilt over her head and chose to escape.

The next morning, Zhuiyun Zhufeng had prepared the team at dawn and was ready to go.

Jiang Shu got up, washed, ate a few mouthfuls of food in a hurry, avoided Yu Zheng and got on the carriage.

Half a day passed in a flash, and it was time for a lunch break.

After getting off the carriage, Jiang Shu found a river not far away and ran over happily.

The river water was clean and cool. Jiang Shu washed his face happily, then stood up and walked along the river bank to the woods.

After walking for a while, Jiang Shu found someone following him. Turning back, he saw that it was Yu Zheng.

"Prince, why are you following me?"

Jiang Shu tried to control his emotions and faced Yu Zheng calmly.

Staring at the person in front of him with dark eyes, Yu Zheng said slowly: "Don't go too far."

How can she go to the toilet if she doesn't go far?

Jiang Shu coughed lightly and said a little unnaturally: "I'll go to the dense forest in front for a while and come back soon."

Yu Zheng said: "The wild is full of dangers, especially the dense forest."

The killer had followed them last night and must be hiding around now, and the dense forest is undoubtedly the most dangerous place.

Jiang Shu was silent for a moment: "I will be careful."

Yu Zheng frowned and asked: "Why do you have to go to the jungle?"

Jiang Shu felt a bloating in her lower abdomen, and she couldn't bear it anymore. She blushed and said: "I need to go to the bathroom. It's very inconvenient if I don't go to the jungle."

After that, Jiang Shu turned around and ran into the jungle.

Yu Zheng was stunned, and his face flushed as Jiang Shu's words echoed in his mind.

After hesitating for a moment, Yu Zheng was still worried, so he walked to the edge of the jungle and whispered: "There are many wild animals in the forest. I'll stay here."

Jiang Shu didn't respond, which was really embarrassing.

After solving the problem as quickly as possible, Jiang Shu rushed to the river to wash her hands, and then ran back to the rest area.

Yu Zheng followed her from a distance, with a complicated mood.

"Boss, why are you running so fast?" Tan Yu, who was helping Zhuiyun, was puzzled when she saw Jiang Shu running with a red face and panting.

Before Jiang Shu could answer, Zhu Feng, who was adding firewood to the fire, asked in wonder: "Where is the master? Have you seen the master?"
