"I'm going to buy you dinner." Yue Xiangli half-closed the door, and seeing that the water in the ceramic cup had been finished, he asked, "Do you want some water?"
"Yes, add sugar."
"Yeah." Yue Xiangli raised the corners of his lips slightly.
"Isn't Yue Shuai going back to eat?"
"I'll be back later. Are you chasing me away?"
"No." Who dares to drive him away?
"What do you want to eat? I'll bring it to you."
"Will you come tomorrow?" Ning Sangyu looked puzzled.
She remembered that he seemed to be a warlord who ruled a certain area. When she first met him, he was so cold that ice chips could fall off his body, and he looked ferocious like a killer.
"Not welcome?"
"Welcome, are you busy?" Did she dare to say no?
"I'm not busy at the moment, and you haven't told me what you want to eat."
"Double-nut milk skin puff pastry, is that okay?"
"Yeah." Yue Xiangli put the cup on the table and looked down at her, "It's a little hot, let it sit for a while before drinking."
Meeting his gentle gaze, Ning Sangyu blinked, looking away, a little flustered.
After a while, she looked at him again and pointed to the book at the end of the bed. "I want to read a magazine."
His eyes remained gentle.
Yue looked towards Li and saw two magazines at the end of the bed. "Which one do you want to read?"
"New Youth."
Yue Xiangli handed her the New Youth and asked, "Can I read another one?"
"Can."
Ning Sangyu opened the magazine, looked up, and looked at his profile across the pages.
She touched the cup and found it was not so hot anymore, so she drank some water, guessing a lot in her mind.
Yue Xiangli knew she was looking at him, but he just flipped through the magazine quietly.
After a while, Ji Huaimin came back, looked at the two people sitting quietly in the room, and put the food on the table.
Yue Xiangli put the magazine away, looked at Ning Sangyu and said, "Come over tomorrow afternoon."
"Oh, okay."
Yue Xiangli turned around and left with the guards.
"Brother, he's so weird."
"What's so strange about that?" Ji Huaimin put the food out.
"Why did he come to see me? He said he would come tomorrow."
"You think he's crazy." Ji Huaimin handed her the spoon, "You still have some left in your stomach, right?"
Ning Sangyu nodded, "Why do you say that?"
Seeing her puzzled expression, Ji Huaimin organized his words for a while, "What do you think of him?"
Ning Sangyu thought hard and said, "It's... pretty good?"
Just seeing him made her feel a little strange.
"Are you afraid of him?"
"I'm not afraid now. I was quite scared when I first saw him, but you said he was pretty nice, so I wasn't that scared anymore. Plus, he saved me and he treated me pretty well afterwards."
Ji Huaimin didn't expect that she was not afraid that Yue Xiangli's contact also had her own "contribution". If he had known this, he would not have said that to her.
"Sangsang, do you want to go back home?"
Although she didn't understand why he changed the subject so much, Ning Sangyu still replied, "I don't want to. There's no one at home. I'm scared to be alone at home."
The warlords occupying Qushan Province were tyrannical and brutal. They often captured able-bodied men to expand their military strength and broke into people's homes every now and then to arrest people. Some pretty girls were also captured. She was scared to death.
"Then you can live in Zhencheng from now on." Ji Huaimin lowered his eyes.
But he will be transferred to other places to perform tasks soon, and he can't keep her with him all the time. It would be dangerous and hard.
"From what you said, you didn't plan to let me stay in Zhencheng before?" She looked up at him.
"I had planned to let you and I live in Zhencheng for a while, and then entrust you to other friends. Now I have changed my mind. You can live in Zhencheng."
Ning Sangyu was accompanied by someone on the boat from her hometown to Zhencheng, but she received a temporary mission and got off the boat at the pier before arriving in Zhencheng.
