"Don't miss out! Handsome young man performing; if you have money, please support him financially; if you don't, please show your support with your presence!"
Chu Xinxin shouted loudly, and soon a crowd gathered in front of them.
"Girls, what talents would you like to perform?"
Everyone was confused when they saw their empty hands.
"Ah Yao, quickly show it to everyone!"
Chu Xinxin turned around and urged Shen Yao.
Shen Yao's face, which was originally as black as ink, brightened slightly after hearing Chu Xinxin's address.
He stretched out his hand and said to an old man carrying water in the crowd, "Can I borrow this?"
The old man put down the bucket, and Shenyao walked over, placed his hand on the bucket, and the water instantly froze into ice.
"Wow! I want to see more!" The child was very happy and shouted that he wanted more.
Chu Xinxin smiled and spread her hands: "Dear reader, would you like to give me a tip?"
......
Shenyao performed "Instant Zero Degree" thirty times, earning a reward of forty coins.
Chu Xinxin bought two bowls of wontons, which cost six coins.
"It smells so good!"
Chu Xinxin smiled so hard her eyes narrowed: "Shenyao, thank you!"
Sunlight shone on Chu Xinxin's face, giving it a fuzzy glow.
Shenyao suddenly felt a fuzzy feeling in his heart.
He pushed the steaming wontons in front of him toward her: "You eat them."
"You earned the money, why don't you try some..." Chu Xinxin scooped up a piece and shoved it into his mouth: "It's delicious!"
When Shenyao met her expectant gaze, he couldn't bring himself to refuse, so he had no choice but to eat the wonton.
It has a fresh and delicious taste, and the broth is rich and flavorful. It's really tasty.
"Right? I said it's delicious."
Chu Xinxin placed the spoon in his hand: "When I was little, if I was sick or had no appetite, my family would go to great lengths to buy me a bowl of wontons..."
"You really like eating...wonton?"
"It's alright, but the person who bought me the wontons thought that they were easy to digest and would help me recover my energy faster."
Chu Xinxin smiled and said, "It's just that running around is too time-consuming. Later, he learned how to cook for me at home."
"who is he?"
Shen Yao stared intently at Chu Xinxin, as if some fragmented thoughts were flashing through his mind.
"I don't remember." Chu Xinxin smiled at him. "I've really forgotten a lot of things, but it's about someone who is very, very important."
After the two finished eating the wontons, Chu Xinxin went to buy candied hawthorns and ate them as they walked.
As we walked, we entered a residential area.
A chubby boy saw the candied hawthorn in Chu Xinxin's hand and his eyes were glued to it.
Chu Xinxin asked him, "If you call me 'sister,' I'll give it to you to eat."
The chubby boy shouted in a strong voice, "Sister!"
"They said my sister is very beautiful."
"Your sister is very beautiful!"
Chu Xinxin then pointed to Shen Yao next to her: "He bought the candied hawthorn for his sister, so you should praise him too."
The chubby boy looked up at Shen Yao, who remained expressionless, and the chubby boy shrank back.
But the temptation of the candied hawthorns was too great, and the chubby boy overcame his fear: "Brother-in-law, you're beautiful too!"
Shenyao:.......
"Pfft—Hahaha..."
Chu Xinxin looked at Shen Yao's expression and almost dropped her hand while laughing.
She shoved the candied hawthorn into the chubby boy's hand: "How did you know we're a couple?"
The chubby boy pointed with his round hand: "I saw it all just now, he kept looking at you, that's the kind of look my dad gives my mom!"
After he finished speaking, Chu Xinxin and Shen Yao were stunned.
Their combination of stand-in and comfort doesn't give off any "parental" vibes.
If you're going to look at something, it's through her that you're looking at Xingyuan.
Chu Xinxin suddenly felt a little disheartened.
"Go home quickly."
Chu Xinxin gently nudged the chubby boy, who happily ran off.
Halfway there, she turned back to Chu Xinxin and said, "Sister, where did you buy this candied hawthorn? It's so sweet!"
Chu Xinxin smiled again and waved at him: "I bought it next to the wonton stall in the west of the city!"
Shen Yao's gaze returned to Chu Xinxin.
Noticing his gaze, Chu Xinxin turned her head and asked him, "What's wrong?"
Shenyao: "You here..."
"What?" Chu Xinxin asked, puzzled.
Shen Yao's cold fingers reached out and touched the corner of her mouth, wiping it away: "It's alright."
The sudden intimacy made Chu Xinxin a little uncomfortable. She casually pointed in a direction to cover it up and said, "Let's go for a walk there again."
As Shen Yao watched Chu Xinxin's retreating figure, for some reason, he suddenly brought the fingertips he had just used to apply sugar stains to Chu Xinxin to his lips and licked them...
It really is quite sweet.
......
The two left the city gate and walked to a small hill.
Looking down from the mountain, within the high and thick city walls, people lived in peace and prosperity, a scene of flourishing development.
Not far away are large rice paddies. It is early spring now, and peach blossoms are in full bloom along the rice paddies.
Chu Xinxin's mood improved again: "I've had enough fun, Shenyao, let's go back."
Shenyao gave a faint "hmm" and was about to cast a spell when several shouts came.
Several powerful werewolves were chasing two human children toward them.
The child, only five or six years old, saw Chu Xinxin and Shen Yao, and his eyes lit up with hope: "Brother and sister, save me!"
Just as Chu Xinxin was about to step forward to ask Shen Yao for help, Shen Yao had already made his move.
He shot out two jets of water from his fingertips, which froze into ice in mid-air and pierced the hearts of the two children.
And due to inertia, they were thrown out and crashed hard in front of the wolf clan members.
"Go eat somewhere else, don't bother me."
Shen Yao's voice was as cold as his entire being, and Chu Xinxin couldn't help but start trembling all over.
The werewolves recognized him, knelt down, and reached out their hands to the still-breathing child...
"Wait." Chu Xinxin walked to the two children. "I want them."
The wolf's gaze turned fierce, and it raised its front paws to attack.
With a wave of his hand, Shen Yao sent him flying dozens of meters away: "How dare you act so presumptuously here! Get lost!"
Faced with overwhelming power, the werewolves had no choice but to reluctantly give up the food they had obtained.
After they left, Shenyao came to Chu Xinxin's side: "What do you need them for? Their hearts are broken, they can't live anymore."
His tone was casual, as if he were discussing the weather with Chu Xinxin.
"It has nothing to do with the Mermaid King."
Chu Xinxin didn't even glance at them, and coldly replied.
Shenyao was also annoyed by her sudden coldness: "Watch your tone!"
"What kind of attitude do I need to have?" Chu Xinxin laughed angrily. "I'm not your Star Source. Even if I look a lot like you, I'm not. If the Mermaid King wants to hear nice words, why don't you go and find the real one?"
