Guilu Town Royal 6
Thanks to the Ragdoll Cat's superpowers, You Chengze's injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Chu Li supported the man's body and looked down at his pale face under his fine hair.
He showed no signs of waking up.
Chu Li raised his head and covered You Chengze's forehead to test his body temperature.
The warm feeling spread to her palms, and Chu Li breathed a sigh of relief. Her body temperature was normal. Perhaps she was too tired recently and needed to rest.
Chu Li petted a few furry creatures and gestured for them to go down the hill first. Then he stood up, holding the man's arms and preparing to carry him on his back.
The man was very sleepy and his whole body was pressed against Chu Li.
The adult man's weight was about to surpass Chu Li's, and she almost tripped over him.
After calming down her panic and disordered steps, she suddenly felt that the weight on her body seemed to have been lightened a lot.
She tilted her head and looked at You Chengze's slightly longer eyelashes as he closed his eyes. He hadn't woken up yet. Who was helping him?
Chu Li looked down with confusion, and saw that the furry creatures she had just called away were flapping their wings in unison behind her, stretching out their little paws to try to reduce the weight on Chu Li.
Especially the little fox.
Normally, it hated seeing Chu Li and You Chengze interacting too much, and whenever it approached the man, it would give him a cold look. Now, whether it was because it knew about You Chengze's relationship with her or because of the gratitude for saving his life, the little fox actually contributed some strength.
Chu Li couldn't help laughing, and the unhappiness accumulated in his heart was dispelled by these little fur balls.
The people around him were so nice, why did he have the idea of giving up? Maybe he was afraid that You Chengze and Mao Rongrong would die tragically because of his momentary decision.
However, You Chengze, who always has a cold face, is willing to hold her hand in times of crisis, and is willing to lead her to the right path when she is confused.
The same is true for furry.
Although they couldn't speak, they used their weak bodies and exerted all their strength just to protect her from getting hurt.
Fortunately, she didn't give up.
Thinking of this, Chu Li took a deep breath and felt his chest filled with hope and ambition, so full and full of energy.
She and Mao Rongrong worked together to carry You Chengze back to Guilu Town.
The strong wind had long since subsided, and the lush bamboo forest was flattened, a horrible sight.
The floods were kept out by the super powers of snow leopards and tigers.
Inside the wall, many people had not yet recovered from their shock. They were still folding their arms, looking panicked, and muttering something.
The one who had the most severe stress reaction was Ruan Sui.
She hugged Yueyue tightly, her whole body was wet, her hair stuck to both sides of her face, her eyes were red, and she kept repeating the word "I'm sorry".
Yueyue was held tightly by her, and she struggled to break free from Ruan Sui's hands. After failing, she could only look at Zhou Cheng crying beside her.
Zhou Cheng's condition wasn't great either. His face was pale, and his body was covered in wounds. His slightly darkened hands wiped away Yueyue's tears, and then, despite the discomfort, he lowered his head to persuade Ruan Sui.
Chu Li didn't know what he said. He only saw Ruan Sui let go of his hand and collapsed to the ground in despair.
The eyes that were gentle and passionate when they first met were now empty and numb, and an air of despair surrounded her.
Chu Li felt a sharp pain in his heart.
"Xiao Li, you're back!" Zhou Cheng's voice rang out, interrupting Chu Li's emotions and bringing back the panic of many residents. "Are you okay? Is Chengze injured?!"
Chu Li opened her mouth, but before she could respond, a black shadow pounced in front of her.
She felt Ruan Sui forcibly pulling away her hand that was tightly holding You Chengze, and then she was hugged in Ruan Sui's arms.
Before she could react, she felt something wet on her shoulder.
Ruan Sui was crying.
Chu Li didn't understand why, but his heart ached, so he raised his hand to comfort her.
The next second, Ruan Sui raised her head from her shoulder and looked her up and down like crazy, as if to confirm whether Chu Li was injured.
"A Sui..." Zhou Cheng couldn't bear to watch any longer. He stepped forward, holding Ruan Sui's shoulders and said softly, "She's fine. The flood is over. There won't be any more floods in the future."
"Really?" Ruan Sui looked at Zhou Cheng with red eyes.
Zhou Cheng wiped Ruan Sui's tears with pity and continued to comfort her, "When have I ever lied to you? Go and look after Yueyue, okay? You scared Yueyue just now."
Ruan Sui seemed to have heard it and nodded, then looked at Chu Li with some concern. Seeing that she was indeed fine, she turned her head and walked towards Yueyue who was still sobbing.
-
The sudden flood interrupted the hard-earned peace for everyone.
Zhou Cheng stared at his wife's back for a long time, and then fell on You Chengze who was sleeping.
Chu Li, who was concentrating on You Chengze, did not notice the change in Zhou Cheng's gaze. She wiped You Chengze's face with a clean handkerchief, and then asked a few furry cats to help the residents with their work.
These furry creatures are as warm-hearted as their owner and will immediately do their job upon receiving instructions.
The snow leopard and the gorilla were busy doing physical work, the little rag doll was concentrating on treating the people, the little fox was helping with cleaning, and the tiger was busier. It built house after house for the residents, which won praise from the residents.
Chu Li looked at the ever-changing scene, his brows suddenly relaxed and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"I knew you could help us out of this desperate situation."
Hearing Zhou Cheng's voice, Chu Li looked over.
The man's tall figure faced the sunlight. The anxiety he had when they first met had faded away, his brows relaxed, and the dullness surrounding him dissipated a lot.
Yes, a man in his thirties should have been enjoying a good life like his peers, but now he has to hold an important position and has to shoulder the future of the entire town.
"Actually, I didn't help much."
Chu Li responded, lowered his eyes, and continued to wipe the back of You Chengze's hand.
She was telling the truth. She really didn't help much. It was the furry group who came to the rescue.
At most, she was just lucky.
"How could that be? In this world, anyone who can summon a pet with superpowers is a savior." Zhou Cheng's eyes flickered as he spoke, and his mood seemed to have brightened considerably. "Pet will absolutely obey their master and fulfill their master's wishes."
Chu Li didn't expect him to say that. He smiled sheepishly and then asked, "Brother Cheng is so proud, is it because he had a spirit pet in the past?"
After these words came out, Zhou Cheng fell silent.
Sensing the awkward atmosphere, Chu Li knew that she had said the wrong thing. She cursed herself inwardly for a while in frustration and was about to apologize.
Zhou Cheng spoke first, "My daughter is."
Chu Li frowned, with countless doubts in his mind.
daughter?
Yueyue?
But she didn’t see any spirit pet beside Yueyue?
"She's dead."
Zhou Cheng's words were like a bolt from the blue, sending chills down Chu Li's spine. She opened her mouth to say something, but suddenly realized that any words she offered would seem utterly inadequate.
Zhou Cheng smiled at her and pretended to be relieved as he explained, "She was the only pet summoner in town and was loved by everyone in the town. But then a flood hit, and while trying to save us, she drowned, along with several of her pets."
Chu Li's eyes widened in shock. This story gave her goosebumps all over her body.
She didn't expect the seriousness of the matter.
The next moment, she seemed to have thought of something and asked tentatively, "So Sister Ruan has a stress disorder, right?"
"It's hard to say." Zhou Cheng sighed. "At first, after Xiaoxiao left, her condition was very bad, but she gradually got over it. With Yueyue, her emotions and mental state have been very stable. Until that morning, when she met you and You Chengze in the cave."
Xiaoxiao is the nickname of Zhou Cheng's eldest daughter.
"You may not believe this, but you and Xiaoxiao look a lot alike, and so do your personalities." Zhou Cheng continued to smile at her. "The night you were unconscious, Ah Sui actually held Chengze, who hadn't fully recovered yet, and interrogated him the entire night."
"About what?" The taciturn man didn't tell her, and she was very confused.
"About whether you two are in a relationship."
"us……"
Chu Li wanted to say that they hadn't talked about it, but Zhou Cheng spoke first, "Chengze and you have the same answer. I persuaded him privately and asked him to play a trick with me. She has been living a very depressed life in recent years and she wants to prove to me that she is living a good life."
"Xiao Li, I can't bear to let her accept this fact." Zhou Cheng's lips trembled slightly, and his voice was a little trembling. "Please help me keep it a secret..."
Chu Li opened his mouth and took a long time to think of a sentence, "I will."
She didn't expect that the problem that made her distressed and angry was caused by this.
Her eyes involuntarily fell on You Chengze's pale and handsome face.
What was Menghulu thinking when he heard this?
Are you feeling the same mixed emotions as her?
"Sorry for the loss of composure."
Zhou Cheng interrupted Chu Li's wandering thoughts.
He wiped the tears from his face and continued, "Xiao Li, I really want to thank you. Thank you for coming and fulfilling the wishes of A Sui and me. Thank you for helping the town escape danger."
"It's okay, I'm just doing what I can." Chu Li replied.
Just as he finished speaking, he saw Zhou Cheng in front of him rubbing his pocket for a while.
The next moment, something tightly wrapped in a plastic bag appeared in front of her.
She frowned and watched Zhou Cheng slowly untie the plastic bag.
It's a seal, a seal with a butterfly on it.
Zhou Cheng handed it to Chu Li and said, "I know you need this, so I'll give it to you. I hope to hear about your victory soon."
Chu Li was startled, then quickly took it and said happily, "Thank you, Brother Cheng."
"One more thing."
"What?"
Chu Li asked, then felt Zhou Cheng's intense and hard-to-ignore gaze. She frowned and followed his gaze to You Chengze lying on the ground.
"Once a spirit pet and its master form a contract, they enter a symbiotic relationship where if you die, they die too." Zhou Cheng spoke slowly, "Chengze was angry that time because he was afraid that you and your furry companion would die too."
