Seeing that Su Xia had finished eating the meat, Ning Qing handed her a pack of tissues, but Su Xia only glanced at them indifferently and didn't even touch them.
Seeing this, Ning Qing silently thought to herself: If the mountain won't come to me, then I'll go to the mountain.
Who told him to be the person I was protecting!
From the moment Ning Qing identified him as her target for protection, she placed him under her wing and placed him under her protection.
So she stood up, took a step forward, and squatted down in front of Su Xia. Under Su Xia's questioning gaze, she took his hand and felt that the hand she was holding was unusually stiff. Ning Qing pretended not to know and lowered her eyes to carefully wipe away every oil stain.
The hand has long, beautiful bones, and various scars of different sizes, which must have been left over the past two months on this island.
Ning Qing is a demon who only loves beautiful things; she cannot bear to see anything beautiful with flaws.
When Su Xia's hand was grabbed, his first reaction was to struggle, but he suppressed the urge to break free. He wanted to see what this man who had suddenly appeared was up to.
The strange man was seen gripping his own wrist with one hand while meticulously wiping his hands with a tissue in the other.
Su Xia was slightly taken aback. What was this person trying to do? Was this a deliberate attempt to be friendly, and what was their motive? Then she gave a self-deprecating laugh. What did she have besides a decent-looking face? But now her face was covered in filth. Did the other person have X-ray vision?
He shook his head again, secretly laughing at himself for overthinking things.
Watching the other person so meticulously wipe my hands, as if handling a treasure in an antique shop, afraid of hurting the tiny, intricate wounds on them.
I had a strange feeling in my heart.
"It's all cleaned up, it's really spotless," Ning Qing looked up at Su Xia and smiled slightly.
Su Xia was momentarily stunned by the smile. This man was really handsome, with bright, phoenix-shaped eyes that seemed to be filled with dazzling stars.
Those eyes are so captivating; it's easy to lose yourself in them.
Su Xia turned her gaze away from the man, "Su Xia, this is my name. I arrived here a few months ago."
"Oh, is that so? If you want to leave, you can come back with us," Ning Qing invited.
Su Xia lowered his head and pondered for a while before raising his head and nodding slightly to Ning Qing, a "good" slowly escaping from his thin lips.
He didn't want to be a savage; he wanted to go back, to go back to school.
The appearance of this man might be the only chance for him to go back.
Whatever his intentions, I must hold on tight.
If this man also had ill intentions, Su Xia clenched his fists. He could escape once, but he wasn't afraid he wouldn't be able to escape a second time. Bad people should be punished. A hint of ferocity flashed in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
Ning Qing was keeping a close eye on him, not missing the fleeting glint of ferocity in his eyes. Tsk tsk, this little rascal is a wolf cub, interesting.
They arrived at the beach together, where a fishing boat was moored. That's right, the fishing boat was rented by Ning Qing. She had just arrived in this world and was urged by the system to come to this island to find Su Xia. She rented the fishing boat and rushed over. It's not that she didn't want to get a better boat... but she still used all of the original owner's savings to rent it.
"Let's go, let's get on the boat," Ning Qing said with a smile to Su Xia beside her.
Su Xia nodded and followed.
After boarding the ship, Ning Qing took out her own clothes and asked him to go into the cabin to change.
Su Xia was aware of her own situation and did not refuse.
There was a simple bathroom in the cabin. Su Xia quickly washed up, changed into clean clothes, and felt refreshed.
He walked out to the bow of the ship and saw Ning Qing standing alone on the deck. The sea breeze tousled his hair and fluttered the hem of his clothes.
Su Xia walked over and stood shoulder to shoulder with Ning Qing, gazing at the distant sea. The blue sky and water merged, so beautiful it seemed unreal.
The sea breeze wasn't gentle, ruffling the hair of those admiring the sea view.
As the sun sets, the calm sea surface is like a carpet of fine gold dust, dazzling and breathtakingly beautiful.
The sea breeze blew by, ruffling the boys' clothes and tousling their short hair.
Tired of standing, Ning Qing pulled Su Xia to sit on the deck together. At first, the two didn't bother each other, but later, Ning Qing, who was resting with his eyes closed, wanted to find a place to lean against and sleep. So he put his head on Su Xia's shoulder, who was sitting next to him. Su Xia felt a weight on his shoulder, turned his head to look, and saw Ning Qing resting his head on his shoulder. He stiffened for a moment, raised his hand to push Ning Qing's head away, hesitated for a moment, and finally put his hand down, letting him lean on it. He thought to himself: I'll see what you're up to.
Su Xia, preoccupied with her own speculations, failed to notice the faint smile that appeared on Ning Qing's lips.
Ning Qing thought to herself, "Don't let the fact that the target looks thin fool you. He has broad shoulders and is comfortable to lean on. He'd make a great body pillow."
The system hurriedly said, "Host, please stop your dangerous thoughts. You only need to protect the safety of the mission target."
"Besides protecting it, you can't do anything else," Ning Qing couldn't help but tease the system.
"Host, what else do you want to do?" The system was terrified. It had to keep a close eye on its host and prevent her from doing anything reckless.
"Why don't you guess what I'm planning to do?" Ning Qing's eyes flashed with a hint of mockery. Unfortunately, the system didn't appear, which only strengthened its resolve to protect the mission target's personal safety as well as their innocence.
Ning Qing found it extremely amusing to watch the system jumping up and down in such a hurry. It was unusual for the system to be so anxious about the mission objectives, but what did it have to do with her? She just wanted to have a place in the Heavenly Realm to lie down and not meddle in other people's business.
Su Xia waited for Ning Qing's next move so he could catch her tail. As he waited, he gradually became sleepy. These days, he had been alone on the deserted island and dared not fall asleep completely. He could only close his eyes to rest while being very vigilant and prepared for any sudden situations.
A faint, pleasant fragrance lingered around my nose. It seemed to emanate from the man leaning on my shoulder, a scent that was both floral and fruity, incredibly soothing and giving me a warm and safe feeling, gradually calming my restless heart.
My body was exhausted from relaxing, and drowsiness came over me instantly. Unable to resist the sleepiness, I obediently closed my eyes and slowly fell asleep.
Before falling asleep, I silently told myself, "Just let yourself sleep for a little while, just a little while..."
