Jealousy (8)
Before Song Shu could figure out the reason, he watched Alice reply coldly with a "thank you" and then left, left, left!
Song Shu became even more withdrawn.
He knew that Ellis wouldn't like him very much, but he didn't expect Ellis to dislike him so much.
This world is doomed.
Song Shu held the fishing rod in his hand, his whole body emitting despair as he was stunned.
Perhaps because he failed in love but gained in fishing, Song Shu, a well-known air force guy in the game, caught several fish in one go.
At sunset, Song Shu glanced at the bountiful fish basket - plump and lively braised fish, steamed fish, pickled fish, tomato fish... It barely healed his heart.
After catching another fish, Song Shu couldn't help but look towards Ellis again, only to find that Ellis had chosen the farthest distance from him with great disgust.
The "girl" had her ponytail tied high and was wiping the knife with her fingertips. The setting sun cast a shadow on her profile, and her face was as cold and stunning as a sharp blade.
Because Song Shu was too excited, I could see what was going on in Song Shu's heart: [……]
Wake up, this is a man.
555 glanced at Song Shu, who was like a dog licking his ass, and finally couldn't bear it again, so he said cryptically: [Don't you think he is very tall? His Adam's apple is a little too prominent. ]
555 I almost said this: With such a prominent Adam's apple, such broad palms, and such a tall height, you can't even tell that he is a man. Are you blind?
Unfortunately, Song Shu was a blockhead, and his tone sounded very proud. "Yes, Alice's disguise is brilliant! If I didn't know that she was pretending to be a boy because of her hard work, I would have been fooled by her."
555: [Hehe.]
…
555's haha couldn't cause any harm to Song Shu. His mind was now full of how to make Alice happy.
He really didn't want to be hated by Alice. It was too painful to be hated by the person he liked.
Judging from the distance Alice was sitting, if it wasn't for the regulated range of the campsite, Alice would probably have to sit at the other end of the Dark Forest.
Song Shu had a headache. He was a straight man who had never been in love. No matter how many romance cartoons he watched, he would be at a loss when it came to his turn.
The premise is that Alice hates him very much.
Song Shu racked his brains and couldn't help asking 555, but 555 replied with "Hehe".
Song Shu got angry for a moment.
It's fine if you, an artificial intelligence, laughed at me once, but what does it mean if you laughed at me a second time? Even a clay man has some temper. I'm going to have the cold war with you for three minutes now.
555: [Hehe.]
Song Shu: “…”
Unable to think of a solution, Song Shu felt listless all night and looked very depressed.
Ying thought that Song Shu was unhappy because he didn't catch enough fish, so he sent more secret guards into the water to put fish on Song Shu's hooks. But as the fish kept increasing, Song Shu still wasn't happy.
The master's thoughts were hard to guess, and Ying became more and more silent.
The temperature difference between day and night in the forest is large, so it is necessary to set up camp and make a bonfire at night. In order to solve the problem of dinner, Shui Lian, Qing Xiao and Bo Wenyan*3 divided the work neatly. Two people simply prepared the meat and fish, two people cooked, and two people picked fresh fruits.
Soon Song Shu's dinner was ready. There were meat, vegetables and fruits. Every dish was delicious, but Song Shu had no appetite at all. He looked pale and listless, and looked a little sick.
The sick man secretly glanced at Ellis who was chewing dry bread, and suddenly felt very distressed. How could his wife eat such a meaningless thing?
Even if you are in a cold war (being hated unilaterally), you must be good to your wife.jpg
Song Shu quickly called Qing Xiao over and asked her to bring the things to Ellis, and made a good excuse: "Didn't Prince Ellis save you? Give these to him as a thank you gift."
The one who called out was Qingxiao, and Shuilan came over with her, but Shuilan didn't come too close.
Perhaps because she was worried about Qingxiao, Shui Lan's gaze was stronger than usual, like an X-ray. Song Shu felt a little uncomfortable, so he quickly gave a few instructions and let Qingxiao take the things over.
Qing Xiao left, and Shui Lian's vision, which was as strong as X-rays, also disappeared.
Song Shu breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but follow Qing Xiao with his eyes. He saw Qing Xiao hand the thing to Ellis. Ellis didn't refuse and even tasted a few bites.
Song Shu's brows relaxed and he felt a little happy.
Did Ellis dislike him less?
…………
Ellis didn't like the things Song Shu sent him, but Song Shu was domineering and cruel. If he didn't accept them, the servant who delivered the things would most likely be punished when he returned.
He was far away from Song Shu, and occasionally when he glanced over, he could see that Song Shu was wrapped tightly, revealing a somewhat messy black head, and his bright red lips looked like a vampire full of blood in the firelight.
As if noticing his gaze, Song Shu looked away again.
Isn't it just to make him eat these meals that I have been watching him? Anyway, there must be something bad added to the food. Vampires with only skins have many ways to play tricks on people.
Ellis picked up the dishes with chopsticks expressionlessly and swallowed them tastelessly.
In the distance, Song Shu quietly noted down the dish that Ellis ate the fastest, and felt very happy in his heart.
Great, it seems Ellis has forgiven him.
…
Qing Xiao stepped back, her mind still recalling the look she had just given Song Shu.
The young man was wrapped in a red and black blanket with a weary look on his face. His slender arms and thin bones reflected the firelight. He was fiddling with the fire weakly. He didn't eat much and hardly touched the food on the table. He somehow reminded people of a sick kitten that had gotten wet.
Such an association is extremely abnormal for a cruel duke.
But Qingxiao didn't realize it. He just thought, is it okay for Song Shu to only eat this little?
He had a lot of messy thoughts in his mind, from Song Shu adopting him and Shui Lan, to Shui Lan telling him to stay away from Song Shu. Brother Shui Lan's attitude towards Song Shu changed from gratitude to disgust. The abrupt turn of fate always made Qing Xiao anxious for no reason.
He had no idea what Shui Lian had encountered. Coupled with his strange feelings for Song Shu and his wariness of Song Shu due to what happened in the afternoon, Qing Xiao felt a little confused and anxious.
But there was one thing Qing Xiao understood - Shui Lan had done a lot for him to protect him, and he couldn't do anything that would make Shui Lan worry.
Qing Xiao suppressed her conflicting and complicated emotions, and dared not mention Song Shu in front of Shui Lan again. She just repeated in a gentle voice what Song Shu had told her.
Shui Lan seemed to be out of shape, but Qing Xiao was in a state of anxiety, so she naturally didn't notice Shui Lan's abnormality.
Shui Lan stared at the campfire, and Song Shu's face was visible in the distorted firelight.
Like a pervert, he forced himself to watch every reaction of Song Shu when he met Qing Xiao. From his eyebrows to his lips, that little bit of compulsion seemed to be to prove that Song Shu had no special feelings for Qing Xiao, to prove...
Prove that you are not the second choice under Qing Xiao?
He didn't want to see any trace of appreciation for Qing Xiao on Song Shu's face. Was it out of protection for Qing Xiao or jealousy?
Shui Lian's face lost all color, and his breathing became rapid. He bit his lip, trying hard to suppress these thoughts.
Qingxiao is his younger brother, he has to protect him, and also protect his friends under Bo Wen. He will kill Song Shu sooner or later.
There's no point in thinking about these things, Shui Lan, you should just be yourself.
Shui Lan kept murmuring these words, trying hard to suppress her anxious mood.
…
Song Shu's daily intake of fresh fruits is fixed. Shui Lan and Qing Xiao, as two of the people who follow and serve him, need to deliver fresh fruits to Song Shu regularly.
Shui Lan was the one who delivered the fruits at noon, and Qing Xiao was the one who delivered the fruits in the evening.
However, Shui Lan picked up the basket of fruit faster than Qing Xiao.
The tent that served as a makeshift kitchen was tidied up very cleanly. Qing Xiao looked at the basket of fruit with some hesitation, "Brother?"
Shui Lian looked pale these days, as if he was worried. He closed the distance between him and Qing Xiao, and the two slender figures leaned against each other like little animals cuddling together for warmth in the cold winter.
Shui Lian spoke softly, her beautiful face gentle, "I'll be the one delivering the fruit today. During this time, try not to appear in front of your father."
Since the last quarrel, Qing Xiao no longer dared to mention Song Shu in front of Shui Lan. He nodded obediently. Shui Lan smiled and kept rubbing his head. She said apologetically: "Some things are not convenient to tell you, but you just need to believe in me, I will protect you."
Shui Lian was mumbling like a madman when he said this, and his breathing was a little rapid. Qing Xiao held his hand worriedly, "Brother, I can also share your burden."
He is no longer the little kid who needs to hide behind Shui Lan.
Shui Lan and Qing Xiao were born in an ordinary small town family. Everything was peaceful and beautiful. But when Shui Lan was seven years old, the town was attacked by monsters. A large part of the houses collapsed, including Shui Lan and Qing Xiao's home. At that time, their parents held them tightly under their bodies, so they could survive.
Perhaps stimulated by the loss of her loved ones, Shui Lan would choose to stand in front of Qing Xiao whenever she encountered any danger from then on.
Shui Lian had a thin back, but he also had the sense of responsibility of a brother. He almost immediately refuted Qing Xiao's words, "No."
A rude and decisive refusal.
My father likes Ellis, and Qingxiao's eyes and eyebrows are so similar to Ellis...
Shui Lian's lips turned even paler. It was hard to tell whether it was out of worry, jealousy, or impotent anger. He almost pinched Qing Xiao's hand until it turned red. His dark eyes stared at Qing Xiao nervously. Looking closely, he saw that his fingers were still trembling. "Absolutely not, Qing Xiao. I told you that you can't stay with your father for a long time. Do you understand?"
Qing Xiao had never seen her brother so extremely paranoid. She was frightened for a moment and stammered, "I'm sorry, I understand, brother."
"Feel sorry…"
Reason and emotion were pulling at each other, and her breathing seemed to become more rapid. Shui Lian turned her eyes away unnaturally, tears falling like beads from a broken string, "I'm sorry, I should be the one to apologize."
Qingxiao is so innocent, how could he lose his temper with someone who knows nothing?
Just as Shui Lan loves Qing Xiao, Qing Xiao can't bear to see Shui Lan's tears. He anxiously comforts Shui Lan and strokes her back.
"Qingxiao, my brother promised,"
Shui Lian grabbed his hand, her eyes still a little red from crying, "Soon we will be able to live our own lives. If you have someone you like, you can..."
This topic came up out of nowhere, Shui Lian didn't know why he said this, but the words had already been spoken, there was no reason to take them back. He could only continue in a daze: "You can do a lot of things with the person you like."
A face flashed through her mind reflexively, causing Qing Xiao's eagerness to argue to pause for a moment, "No, I will always be with my brother."
It was an abrupt and sensitive topic, but neither of the brothers felt that it was wrong, or if they noticed it, they didn't say it out loud. They just clung to each other helplessly, like conjoined twins, and no one could separate them.
…………
Song Shu, who thought he was forgiven by his wife, was in a good mood. He moved his head over and accepted the fruit fed by the servant.
Without the undercurrent of intrigue, the camp became much quieter for a while. When the eldest prince Klein came out of the forest, Song Shu had not yet gotten out of his lazy state.
The otaku was physically weak and in a bad mood, so he not only needed a bonfire, but he also secretly cast an advanced heating magic, and was so warm that he almost fell asleep.
Klein also hunted a fifth-level monster and walked closer to the campfire. It was as if he had entered the warm south from the ice field, and his body slowly began to relax.
"Teacher, this is my homework for today."
Klein inherited the handsome appearance of the king when he was young, like the famous captain of the basketball team in school days. He is sunny and handsome, and his dark skin color adds a bit of evil to his face.
Klein encountered some trouble on the way, so he came out an hour later than Ellis. He cast a fixed forest night tidying spell to make the prey stay in place for Song Shu's inspection.
However, he had said the greeting and performed the formalities, but still received no response, so he controlled his temper and called out again, "Teacher."
Song Shu looked up.
Klein was not someone who cared much about appearance. When communicating with others, he never paid too much attention to their faces.
Just for that second when he looked at Song Shu, Klein's heartbeat and breathing seemed to miss a beat.
He pinched his palms to try to bring his thoughts back to mind, and blinked lazily at the man.
Because of the warmth of the campfire, Song Shu's pale cheeks had a little more color. There were still some water stains on his lips from eating fruit. He licked some of the water stains off with the tip of his tongue, and his lips, stained with water, looked fuller.
Song Shu glanced at the monsters that Klein had hunted and said lazily, "Well, you did a great job."
Song Shu was very perfunctory and full of disdain.
Tsk, there are differences among fifth-level monsters too, and his wife’s is still bigger.
555: [Your wife's is indeed a little bigger. ]
Song Shu was proud: "Isn't it."
His wife is the best.
555:.
I hope you can say this with such pride in the future.
