Chapter 417 The Coward's Black Moonlight Witch 48
Chu Bojian wanted to say something, but Chen Xinran gave him a look and said, "Shut up! If you disturb my sleep again, I'll throw you out."
Chu Bojian shut his mouth, but there was a hint of grievance in his eyes when he looked at Chen Xinran. He just wanted to ask when the Ghost Gate would close.
Shen Xinran simply covered his head with the quilt, closed his eyes, and began to sleep. I really don't know how this male protagonist, who is so timid, could become the ghost king who kills everyone in the plot.
The next morning, He Baifeng got up as usual and prepared to wake Shen Xinran up. However, when she opened the door, she unexpectedly found Chu Bojian sleeping next to Shen Xinran's bed.
He Baifeng frowned and asked in confusion, "Xiao Chu, why are you here?"
Chu Bojian was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, "Oh, Niuniu was scared last night and insisted that I come over to accompany her."
He Baifeng stepped forward and shook Shen Xinran, "Kid, if you're scared, just come to grandma's room. Why let Xiao Chu come here? It's almost autumn, it's so cold sleeping on the floor."
Shen Xinran was still a little confused after opening her eyes. When did she become scared?
At this time, Chu Bojian was standing behind He Baifeng, putting his hands together towards Shen Xinran, as if to say "please".
Shen Xinran: “…”
Chu Bojian gave Chen Xinran a flattering smile, "What would you like to eat in the morning?"
Without waiting for Shen Xinran to answer, he immediately said: "I'll go buy you some candied haws now. Are two strings enough?"
He Baifeng frowned, "Why are you eating candied haws so early in the morning?"
Shen Xinran smiled faintly and said, "Who scared me last night?"
Chu Bojian felt guilty and ran out without waiting for Shen Xinran to speak.
…
The fallen leaves of autumn were carried away by the cold wind, and the footsteps of winter quietly set in. Snowflakes took advantage of the night to fall quietly, covering the earth with a layer of silver.
The world outside the quilt is as cold as winter, but inside the quilt it is like another season, warm and comfortable.
Shen Xinran was half asleep and half awake, still able to hear the whistling wind outside the window. She curled up in bed, burying her head deep in the quilt.
"Niuniu, it's snowing. You have to get up early to go to school today, otherwise you will be late." He Baifeng's voice sounded outside the door, breaking Shen Xinran's sweet dream.
Shen Xinran grumbled and huddled closer, "Grandma, it's so cold outside. Can I not go to school today?"
When He Baifeng heard her granddaughter's soft voice, her heart softened and she almost blurted out the agreement.
At this time, Chu Bojian happened to pass by. He said righteously: "A day's plan begins in the morning. If you don't get up now, you can't stay in bed all day!"
He Baifeng thought it made sense, so she said to Shen Xinran, "Niuniu, why don't you get up?"
Shen Xinran reluctantly poked his head out from under the quilt and slowly began to put on his clothes.
He Baifeng was worried that Shen Xinran would be cold, so she put two sweaters on her and wrapped her in a thick cotton coat.
Chu Bojian couldn't help laughing when he saw Shen Xinran's outfit: "Are you really that afraid of the cold? Even a bear isn't dressed as thickly as you."
Shen Xinran glared at Chu Bojian, his face full of displeasure.
Even though Shen Xinran was wrapped tightly, when she went out, the cold wind outside still made her nose red, and she couldn't help but tighten her neck.
Seeing this, Chu Bojian immediately took off his scarf and wrapped it around Shen Xinran's neck, sighing, "It's not cold now, is it?"
Shen Xinran pouted and accused Chu Bojian, "Bad guy!"
Chu Bojian was at a loss for words. He became a bad guy just because he asked her to get up and go to school?
That day, no matter what Chu Bojian said, Shen Xinran ignored her. Even when she went home from school, she quickened her pace and walked in front of Chu Bojian.
Chu Bojian looked at Shen Xinran's back, feeling both helpless and amused. There happened to be a chestnut vendor on the street, and he had an idea and went up to buy a bag of hot chestnuts.
Chu Bojian trotted forward, handed the chestnut to Shen Xinran, and asked, "Would you like to eat it?"
The aroma of chestnuts filled the air, and the sweet smell kept drifting towards Shen Xinran, and her originally slightly frowned brows gradually relaxed.
After a long silence, Shen Xinran finally gave in to the alluring aroma, nodded gently, and said a simple word: "Eat."
Chu Bojian peeled the chestnuts, handed the kernels to Shen Xinran, and asked, "Are you still angry?"
Shen Xinran ate the chestnuts that Chu Bojian had peeled and shook her head. "I'm not angry anymore."
Chu Bojian peeled another one and asked, "Am I still a bad person?"
Shen Xinran shook his head, "No."
Chu Bojian continued to ask: "Then who is the bad guy?"
Shen Xinran's eyes curved, "The light bulb is broken. He just eats and sleeps every day. He's so lazy!"
Chu Bojian: “…”
On the way home from school, Chu Bojian was responsible for peeling chestnuts, and Shen Xinran was responsible for eating them. She ate one by one with relish, and Chu Bojian was a little too busy to keep up.
When Shen Xinran returned home, He Baifeng was standing under the eaves. She immediately trotted over and put a peeled chestnut next to He Baifeng's mouth, "Grandma, eat a chestnut."
He Baifeng ate the chestnuts and then asked, "Where did this come from?"
Shen Xinran smiled and said, "Chu Bojian bought it."
Chu Bojian skillfully peeled a chestnut and handed it to Shen Xinran.
Just as Shen Xinran was about to eat, he heard He Baifeng remind him, "It's time to eat. Wait until you finish your meal before eating, otherwise you won't be able to eat soon."
Shen Xinran just nodded obediently and said softly: "Okay then."
But at this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind, "Tan Shi, He Xiangu."
Shen Xinran looked back and saw Chen Lanru walking towards them with a smile on her face, and a middle-aged man was following her.
He Baifeng asked tentatively: "What is this?"
Chen Lanru introduced with a smile: "This is my husband, his name is Xiao Chuanbai."
Xiao Chuanbai nodded at He Baifeng and said, "You must be He Xiangu, right? I often hear Lan Ru mention you and your family. Thank you very much for taking care of her."
As Xiao Chuanbai spoke, Shen Xinran began to observe him quietly. Compared with Zheng Guanqing, Xiao Chuanbai was a little older, and his demeanor revealed a mature charm.
He Baifeng fixed her eyes on Chen Lanru's slightly bulging belly and asked, "Are you pregnant?"
Chen Lanru's hand gently stroked her belly, her face filled with loving light. "I went to the hospital for a check-up last week, and it's twins."
He Baifeng asked in surprise, "When did you get pregnant?"
Chen Lanru smiled and said, "That's why you're so predictable. I got pregnant this autumn."
He Baifeng was surprised. She had just said it casually at the time, but she didn't expect it to actually come true. This made her smile so hard that she couldn't stop.
When Shen Xinran heard the word "autumn", a hint of deep thought flashed in his eyes. Isn't this the time to send Zheng Tong to the ghost gate?
Unfortunately, the child is still young and she can't see clearly. If it is really Zheng Tong, Chen Lanru will be so happy.
