At this moment, he saw a flame ignite the lantern, and the glass lamp next to it exploded instantly.
The flames and broken glass flew and were about to explode on Shen Shuyi in the blink of an eye. Xie Xinghe flew over without thinking and protected the person under his body.
The glass lamps exploded, and fragments flew on the man's broad back, but the girl in his arms was unharmed.
Shen Shuyi turned around and his eyes fell on Xie Xinghe. He saw that his skin was cut by the glass fragments and blood was oozing out.
"You're hurt."
"It's okay, let's go first."
The two flew all the way and soon returned to the inn where they were staying.
As soon as Shen Shuyi entered the inn, she asked the waiter to bring some hot water. After closing the door of the room, she looked at the injured Xie Xinghe.
"Take off your clothes and I'll help you apply the medicine."
Blood has already seeped out. Don't underestimate those glass pieces. The explosion was quite powerful, and many fragments may have pierced the skin.
Xie Xinghe subconsciously looked at her hand holding the medicine bottle. He stretched out his hand and said, "I can do it myself."
"How are you treating the back injury?"
"Let me treat you, hurry up, it's already the third day, if the poison takes effect and you become like this..."
Xie Xinghe was about to say no, but before he could say it, the girl came forward and ripped off his clothes.
Shen Shuyi didn't say anything else. She carefully cleaned away the glass fragments that had pierced her flesh, and then applied the ointment.
Xie Xinghe's body was stiff, and he even subconsciously held his breath.
Although the two of them had had physical contact, the intimacy of helping to apply the medicine still made him feel overwhelmed.
His eyes became deeper, and his previous coldness softened a little.
Shen Shuyi applied the ointment on his back, and when she looked up, she saw that Xie Xinghe's ears had suddenly turned red.
She was right behind Xie Xinghe, watching all his reactions. His ears turned red just because he applied some medicine?
So innocent.
It's hard to imagine that this man made her faint three days ago...
"Xie Xinghe, are you still in pain?"
"It doesn't hurt."
Shen Shuyi put the medicine away, gently hugged his neck, and asked in his ear, "What should we do tonight, Xie Xinghe, I seem to be hot again..."
With her hugging his neck, Xie Xinghe became even stiffer and his face turned red.
He remained silent, and Shen Shuyi gently bit his ear, “In the album… there seems to be a standing position… so it won’t touch the wound on your back.”
…
Xie Xinghe held the girl's waist with both hands and stood in front of the window on the third floor of the inn, looking at the fireworks exploding outside the window. His eyes were particularly deep in the darkness.
The drug took effect quickly and violently, and the nausea that settled in his lower abdomen completely destroyed his rationality. He just wanted to...
But this time, he was more sober than the previous two times. He subconsciously slowed down his movements and even looked at the girl's red earlobes curiously in the moonlight and the light of fireworks.
Shen Shuyi held the windowsill with both hands, feeling Xie Xinghe's hot breath spraying on her ears, making her shiver uncontrollably.
Xie Xinghe saw her profile biting her lip, and subconsciously opened his mouth to hold her ear.
The man's tall nose rubbed against her neck. He raised one hand to smooth her black hair behind her waist, then grabbed her waist again and started...
…
…
The next day, when Shen Shuyi woke up, he found himself in a carriage.
She pursed her lips. This man must be on the road without stopping. If it wasn't for the detoxification, he would definitely not stay in Donglin for a night.
Shen Shuyi held the soft quilt and pulled the car curtain, looking at the man in front of her, "Where are we?"
"Cangshan." Xie Xinghe turned his head slightly and glanced at her.
"After crossing Cangshan Mountain, we will reach Qingzhou. At this rate, we should be able to reach Penglai Mountain City in half a month." Chen Shuyi climbed out, her face almost touching his neck. If she hadn't been afraid of touching the wound on his back, she would have hugged him and pressed against his back.
"Yes." Xie Xinghe said concisely, "Go in and rest. I'll call you when we get to the rest area."
Shen Shuyi pinched his shoulders and said that she would sit out and help him drive the carriage, but her head was rubbing against his neck.
Xie Xinghe was helpless, not knowing what tricks she was going to play. The witch was fickle and who knew what she would do next.
"Go in."
"Oh." Shen Shuyi deliberately added, "I really should take a rest. Last night someone was so rude and held me for so long. And then, my knees still hurt!"
Xie Xinghe blushed at what she said and wished he was deaf at this moment so that he would not hear what she said.
Shen Shuyi looked at his blushing face and went back to sleep with satisfaction.
She didn't know how long she slept, but when she smelled the aroma of barbecue coming from outside, she sniffed and slowly woke up.
She was really hungry. After a strenuous exercise last night, she woke up with hunger in her eyes.
As soon as Shen Shuyi got up and opened the curtain, she was met with Xie Xinghe's handsome face.
"Wake up, get up and eat something." Xie Xinghe came to wake her up for dinner. Suddenly, he met these beautiful eyes that were a bit naive as if she had just woken up. For some reason, his heart started pounding.
This lunch not only included roast chicken, but also the eight-treasure rice and some pastries that Xie Xinghe packed back from the restaurant.
He looked at the girl who was eating very quickly across from him and said, "Eat slowly, don't choke."
"It's not all your fault." Shen Shuyi glared at him.
Xie Xinghe immediately stopped talking, fearing that she would say something crazy.
When Shen Shuyi was almost full, the voice of the system popped up in his mind.
[Dear host, Shi Zhengchun and Yin Qianrou have met. Yin Qianrou and Mo Lianzhou have left the mountains to search for the Alliance Leader's Token on Penglai Mountain, intending to destroy it and seize the "Taixuan Sutra" from the righteous sect. While descending the mountain, Mo Lianzhou encountered righteous individuals and was pursued by them. Yin Qianrou was kidnapped by her enemies and, in a moment of panic, encountered Shi Zhengchun again.]
