Chapter 212: Aristocratic Family Summoner x Demon Girl 23
Perhaps it was his own illusion, but Xu Shuo actually saw some of Liu Yin's shadow in his face, but they looked more like relatives.
A flash of disappointment passed through his eyes, and Xu Shuo said coldly, "Are you still willing?"
Shi Jing rolled his eyes and said, "Uncle, why are you leaving? We will follow you."
The expression on the child's face was trembling, and Xu Shuo understood what he meant. A smile suddenly appeared on his lips, and his previously cold tone softened a little.
"I'm staying here and I'm not leaving."
"But, Daddy said that it's very dangerous on the mountain and no one would live here." Shixu blinked and carefully recalled what his father had said before.
"Only the weak are afraid, and I am not."
Shi Xu didn't understand and looked at his brother in confusion.
"Anyway, it means he is not afraid of danger, and he is not afraid of staying here." Shi Jing explained, looking at Xu Shuo with shining eyes.
"Can we come find you later?"
"Can."
Without much hesitation, Xu Shuo made her decision. Perhaps it was because the days spent here were too lonely, or perhaps, they were her children.
Looking at the smiles on the two children's faces, Xu Shuo raised the corners of his lips slightly, and a hint of tenderness appeared on his face.
"It's time for you to go back." The man looked up at the sky.
"I know." Shi Jing muttered, holding his brother's hand tightly and following behind him.
"Aren't you going to ask us what our names are?" Shi Jing suddenly asked.
What if he and his brother come to look for him again in the future and he doesn’t remember it?
"What are your names?" Xu Shuo paused for a moment, then walked forward as if nothing had happened.
"My name is Xiao Shijing, I'm the older brother, and my younger brother is Xiao Shixu."
"What about you?"
"Xu Shuo."
"Uncle Xu Shuo, don't you have a last name?"
"No."
…
Shi Jing is more lively than his younger brother. He keeps talking all the way but it doesn't make people feel bored.
When they reached the mountainside, Xu Shuo stopped and gestured for them to look down. "Follow this path and you will be able to go down the mountain."
Mountain roads are usually bumpy and rough, but this road is different. It looks like it has been walked on many times. It is flat with weeds on the roadside.
Shi Jing looked down. From his angle, he could vaguely see the top of the locust tree in the yard, but he couldn't see anything more.
But he was still happy and pulled his brother to look at it together, "Xiao Xu, look, that's our home."
Shi Xu stood on tiptoe to look around, and found that he could see his home from here.
"Brother Xu Shuo, that's our home." He pointed in the direction of the locust tree and said to Xu Shuo.
"I know." The man looked in the direction he pointed, his eyes far away. "You should go back."
"Don't tell anyone else that you met me here."
"Goodbye, uncle." Shi Jing waved and left with Shi Xu.
Of course he wouldn't tell anyone else, otherwise his parents would know that he and his brother had secretly gone up the mountain.
Xu Shuo stood by and watched their backs as they left, with a bitter smile on his lips. In the blink of an eye, they had grown up so much.
"We'll come again tomorrow!" Shi Jing suddenly turned around and shouted loudly halfway through. Worried that the man didn't hear him, he repeated it again.
"I'll bring my brother to see you tomorrow."
"good."
Both of them were children and they were not walking very fast, so the man just watched them for a long time and did not move away.
Because he knew that after they got home, their parents would definitely come out to see them with gentle smiles on their faces.
After waiting for a while, the figures of the two children gradually came into view. Xu Shuo suddenly held his breath and stared at the tightly closed door.
Shi Xu knocked on the door first, then sneaked around with his brother to a distance and hid under a bush.
Liuyin was used to his little tricks like this. After opening the door, she walked directly to the tree and said, "It's getting dark. We should go home."
Shi Jing then pulled his brother out, pouted, and asked, "Why does mother always find us?"
"Yeah." Liu Yin squatted down and touched his face, "Maybe it's because I can see you at a glance."
"Xiao Xu, it's time for us to go home."
Liuyin naturally wouldn't tell them the truth. The two of them always hid in the same place, so there was nothing they couldn't find.
"Daddy, what delicious food did you make for us today?" Shi Xu asked as he walked. He smelled the fragrance when he stepped outside the door in the morning, and now he felt a little hungry.
"You guys love to eat."
"Great." The two of them ran to the kitchen excitedly.
After a long time, Xu Shuo, who was standing on the mountainside, withdrew his gaze and turned in the direction he came from.
He has lived here for a while, so this place is not unfamiliar to him.
When Xu Shuo found Liu Yin, she had already given birth to someone else's child and seemed to be very loving with her husband.
After that, Xu Shuo didn't dare to see her anymore.
After all, his original intention of coming to Xuanwu Continent was to prevent Liuyin from suffering, but she looked so happy now that he was a little afraid to disturb her.
Not daring to get close, he could only hide in the dark and watch her.
Meeting those two children today was also a surprise. He didn't expect that those two children would actually come up the mountain, especially since they were so young.
The beastmen never used the human way of counting years and months, so to him, the scene and time sequence were no different from a cub in a monk's cradle.
years?
The man suddenly stopped, the full moon's light shining on his face made him look a little strange.
Oh, why didn’t he think of it?
The human race has a short lifespan, but Liuyin is different from him. They can live a long time, and he can wait until that man dies.
After figuring it out, Xu Shuo's steps became lighter, and the depression in his heart also dissipated.
So the next day, when they met Shi Jing and Shi Xu again, the man's coldness from yesterday had completely disappeared.
He began to plant flowers in the valley, weaving them into wreaths and giving them to Shixu, because he knew that Shixu would definitely give the wreaths to his mother.
It wouldn’t matter even if Liuyin later gave that man a son and a daughter.
Anyway, he can wait.
