Chapter 159 The Mysterious Man
Si Ye thought of the beast mark he saw on that strange man last time, and his heart was suddenly filled with violent emotions.
This kind of person... How dare he come to see Xia Xia?!
"Tell me who it is, I'll go find him now!" Si Ye, who was usually cold and expressionless, actually raised his voice eight degrees at this moment, which scared Xia Tian.
She subconsciously grabbed Si Ye as he tried to rush out, "What's wrong with you? Who are you looking for?"
[His character is ruined, his character is ruined, where is his supposed rationality and coldness? 】
[But I really love this kind of character breakdown. It shows that Lao Si cares about Xia Xia, otherwise he wouldn’t be so excited! ]
[I also think it's normal for young people to get angry. I'm envious and a little... funny?]
Xia Tian didn't know what had gone wrong. She guessed Si Ye must have misunderstood something, so she hurriedly explained, "Nothing happened. I just met a very mysterious person on the way back, and I got scared... No one bullied me, don't worry..."
"A mysterious person?" Si Ye regained his composure after she stopped him and asked again, "Tell me, what mysterious person did you meet?"
Xia Tian sat down and shook her head. "I don't know who he is either. Just like when I first met you, he's hiding in a place I don't know. Judging from his voice, he should be an older male orc. And... he recognized the bone whistle you gave me and asked me to bring you a message."
Hearing her words, Si Ye's face was blank for a moment, and then he asked stiffly, "You said... he recognized the bone whistle? And... he asked you to bring me a message?"
Xia Tian knew from his reaction that there must be something she didn't know about this. However, since this was his family matter, she didn't dare to ask too much. She just nodded and said, "I felt it was very dangerous at the time and wanted to blow the whistle, but he recognized the whistle and knew I was asking for your help."
Si Ye's eyelashes trembled, and he lowered his eyes, silent, as if he was thinking about something.
Xia Tian gave him some time to calm down and continued, "Although I don't know what your relationship with him is, he told me... he hopes you can come home soon. Everyone at home misses you very much..."
"Did he say anything else?" Si Ye didn't look up and spoke in a light tone.
Xia Tian thought about it carefully. From the time she met the mysterious man to the time they separated, she had only said a few words. She had just repeated them all, so she shook her head and said, "No more, that's all."
Si Ye sighed as if he was very disappointed. "Don't worry, he won't hurt you. If anything happens in the future, just blow the whistle and call me. Don't be afraid."
This is just to directly expose those words.
Xia Tian didn't know whether he didn't want to express his true feelings in front of her, or simply didn't care about what the mysterious man said. In any case, Si Ye didn't react to those words and pretended not to hear them.
She didn't understand what was going on and didn't say much, so she turned to check on Uncle Ye's recovery and whether the two rabbits used in the experiment were still alive and kicking.
Si Ye sat down against the cliff of the cave, looking at the girl's busy back, his brows slightly furrowed.
This bone whistle was a birthday gift from his father to his mother. After his mother passed away, he kept it as a relic and later gave it to Xia Tian.
Who else can recognize this bone whistle...besides that person?
The beast mark here is a foreshadowing. Do you remember that Lao Si was very angry when he saw Tong for the first time? This will be explained later. It is very important to pay attention to it!
