After Ying Xixi finished speaking, she turned and looked at Xiao Sui.
"Mr. Xiao, why are you suddenly so interested in my cousin?"
Seeing the cunning in Ying Xixi's eyes, Xiao Sui curled his lips and said, "It's not that I'm interested, I'm just worried that you, Miss Ying, will be cheated by him. After all, businessmen always value profit, and sometimes, they won't cheat if they are not relatives."
Ying Xixi raised her eyebrows with an exaggerated expression, "Mr. Xiao, you said you were worried about me? I'm really touched. I didn't expect that Mr. Xiao would actually worry about me.
I thought, Master Xiao, you were eager for me to leave here and not disturb your peace."
Xiao Sui felt even more uncomfortable after hearing this. He turned his face away and explained dryly.
"We have lived under the same roof for some time. Even the most heartless person would care about you."
"Really? Does that mean that Mr. Xiao, I also exist in your heart?"
Ying Xixi asked this deliberately, moving closer to gauge Xiao Sui's expression.
Xiao Sui frowned and repeated what Ying Xixi said with some confusion.
"Do you exist in my heart?"
"Yes, Mr. Xiao, you are worried about me. Doesn't this mean that I exist in your heart?"
Seeing Xiao Sui's bewildered expression, Ying Xixi thought to herself, could Xiao Sui be a simpleton who's emotionally insensitive?
"Is that so? Then I would worry about whether Dahei could find food in the mountains and whether he would starve. Does this also mean that Dahei exists in my heart?"
Xiao Sui's words left Ying Xixi speechless for a moment.
"Mr. Xiao, you're comparing me to a dog."
Xiao Sui laughed, "Sorry, I didn't mean to say you were a dog.
If worry is used to explain whether I have you in my heart.
Then I do have you and Dahei in my heart."
Ying Xixi: “….”
Once explained, it seems even stranger.
The heavy rain kept falling, as if the sky was leaking, and there was no sign of it stopping at all.
Ying Xixi was really worried that the house would collapse.
When it was time for dinner, Xiao Sui casually fried two dishes and ate the food Ying Xixi bought from the town together, and that was how they had their dinner.
After washing up, the two went back to their rooms to rest.
Perhaps the sound of rain was too loud in the middle of the night, so Ying Xixi slept until dawn listening to the sound of rain.
When she woke up, she felt like she had forgotten something.
She got up, put on her clothes and opened the door, only to find that the rain had finally stopped. However, the weather was still gloomy and she didn't know if it would continue to rain.
There was a sound of a door opening next door.
Ying Xixi turned her head and saw Xiao Sui, who was neatly dressed, and finally remembered what she had forgotten!
Last night she didn't get up in the middle of the night to go next door to comfort Xiao Sui who was having a nightmare!
Maybe the sound of the rain was too loud, covering up the sound Xiao Sui made during his nightmare.
She fell asleep just like that and didn't wake up in the middle of the night.
Ying Xixi stared at Xiao Sui specifically and found that his dark circles were a little darker, obviously because he didn't sleep well last night.
"Mr. Xiao, did you not sleep well last night?"
Xiao Sui rubbed his brows and said, "Well, the rain was too noisy. Fortunately, the rain has stopped. I will go up the mountain later and bring back more prey."
Ying Xixi glanced at the gloomy sky and said, "But it's raining now, who knows when.
Besides, it rained all day and all night last night, and the soil on the mountain is very wet. Wouldn't it be dangerous to go up the mountain?"
"It's okay, I have experience, I will bring Dahei back when I kill the prey.
I built a little cabin up in the hills to keep out the rain, so it'll be fine.
While the rain is stopping, I'll hunt more game and bring it back. Otherwise, if it continues to rain, it will be hard to hunt."
Xiao Sui explained in a gentle tone.
He paused and added, "Miss Ying, are you worried about me? Do you also have me in your heart?"
Ying Xixi heard this familiar question and never expected that Xiao Sui would ask her the same question as she had asked.
Ying Xixi blinked her eyes and looked at Xiao Sui calmly, "Yes, you are in my heart."
Xiao Sui and Ying Xixi looked at each other and were stunned for a moment.
Ying Xixi's frankness made him a little overwhelmed.
He had many questions about Ying Xixi and about what was wrong with him, but for a moment he didn't know where to start.
"Mr. Xiao, let's make breakfast first. You can go up the mountain after we finish eating."
Ying Xixi changed the subject at the right time, making Xiao Sui feel like his heart was hooked by a small hook, itching and curious.
But I had to suppress the confused thoughts in my heart.
Ying Xixi made some egg pancakes, and had them with a bowl of hot noodles and some pickled vegetables she bought on the street yesterday. She enjoyed the meal very much.
After Xiao Sui washed the dishes, he saw that the weather had improved a little, so he said goodbye to Ying Xixi and took his hunting knife and bow and arrow and went up the mountain.
After Xiao Sui left, Ying Xixi sat under the eaves in a daze for a while, then got up and went into the house to take out the dirty clothes she had taken off yesterday and planned to wash them.
She glanced at the main room with the door still open, thought for a moment and went in to take a look.
Sure enough, the dirty clothes that Xiao Sui took off yesterday were still there.
Should she help Xiao Sui wash the clothes as well?
Forget it, she was too lazy to wash her own clothes, let alone help Xiao Sui wash them.
Xiao Sui's clothes were very big, heavy, and it was too difficult to wash them by hand.
Ying Xixi washed and hung her clothes, then went back to her room to sleep.
When she woke up again, she was woken up by the system's chattering voice.
[Host, it's raining outside. Hurry up and put away the clothes, or they'll all be wasted!]
Ying Xixi rubbed her eyes, got up, and looked out the window.
"It's raining again. It really doesn't stop raining."
Ying Xixi quickly got up and ran to the yard to bring in the clothes.
As soon as she put away her clothes, the rain got heavier and heavier. In a few seconds, it turned into a downpour like water pouring down.
Ying Xixi hung the clothes that had not yet dried on the chairs next to the table in the room.
The windows of several rooms were closed.
It’s raining so hard, I wonder how Xiao Sui is doing on the mountain.
"System, take a look at Xiao Sui's current situation."
[Okay, host, don't worry. The male protagonist and the big black dog are hiding from the rain in the cabin. They are fine.]
"That's good."
Ying Xixi felt a little bored listening to the sound of rain outside, so she took out some snacks from the space and started eating them. She then asked the system to search for a movie and show it to her on the system panel.
Listening to the sound of rain, watching movies, eating snacks, and drinking happy fat house water.
If it weren't for the simple house reminding Ying Xixi that this was an ancient dimension.
She almost thought she was relaxing in the modern dimension.
After watching a movie, Ying Xixi looked at the time on the system panel with a sense of unsatisfied feeling.
It was already past seven in the evening and it was almost completely dark outside.
But the rain was still falling and Xiao Sui had not returned yet.
