Pei Wen's action today really triggered her long-suppressed emotions.
She stared at him for a long time without saying a word, and finally walked straight towards him.
At that moment, Pei Wen would be lying if he said he was not afraid.
He knew very well what kind of person Si Lan was and what her temper was like.
She wasn't like other girls at all. Back then, at such a young age, she was able to single-handedly defeat a professional spy. After being swept into the Infinite Flow, she was even able to single-handedly challenge an entire professional team and defeat them all.
When such a person gets angry, his momentum is really incredible.
He could even see the murderous aura emanating from her body. He was so frightened that he retreated step by step, even trying his best to retreat against the wall. He even wished that if the wooden wall behind him could be crushed by him, he could take the opportunity to escape.
But obviously the reality was not as he wished.
After a while, Si Lan stopped in front of him. She was so close that he could even see the sharpness in her slightly narrowed eyes.
Pei Wen's heart sank. He pursed his lips and stood still, giving up struggling: "Then hit me gently..."
Si Lan frowned: "Who wants to hit you?"
Pei Wen: "Are you going to hit someone?"
"...I'm sick, so why am I calling you a serious patient? Don't you think you're not sick enough?"
Pei Wen was startled and looked down in confusion: "Then what are you going to do?"
Si Lan narrowed her eyes again and gritted her teeth, "One month in the outside world is roughly equivalent to two months here."
"It's only been over half a month. You still have more than a month to recuperate. Tell me first, how do you want me to keep an eye on you from now on?"
Pei Wen: "Isn't that considered staring at me?!"
"Not really. It seems our neighbors aren't close enough. Why don't you move in with me? I'll give you a room, but you'll have to sleep there from now on."
Pei Wen almost choked when he heard this: "What did you say???"
"I told you to move. If you have the ability, you should work hard to discredit me. Otherwise, don't even think about taking advantage of the situation."
Pei Wen: "No, boss, ancestor, do you know what you are doing? You are inviting me to live with you, right?"
Si Lan frowned again: "What kind of nonsense is your head full of? You only know this kind of meaningless things. Why don't you take care of your own body?"
Pei Wen: "Anyone with normal brains would think the same way I do! You're the only one exaggerating! Really, it's not that I don't want to, I absolutely want to, but out of consideration for your innocence, I don't think this is appropriate."
Si Lan: "You talk too much nonsense."
"There's nothing I can do. I'm the only one who can consider things for you that you can't."
"Not moving?"
"It's not that I don't want to move, it's that I don't dare. Unless you——"
"Then I'll move in?"
"Fuck! Ancestor, wake up!"
Si Lan was silent for a while.
Finally, she didn't know what she was thinking about, but she looked up at his house and muttered, "It's really not suitable."
Pei Wen: "Is that so? Unless—"
Si Lan: "This room is too small."
"……no……"
Si Lan withdrew her gaze and pointed to the side of his window: "Then expand it. Just build it right next door, right next to him. From now on, you are not allowed to close this window."
Pei Wen: “…”
This was the first time he had seen Si Lan so persistent and determined.
My emotions were very complicated: "Are you really going to do this? Are you going to stare at me so harshly?"
As soon as she heard this, Si Lan remembered the feeling of guarding him for a week and became irritable again.
"If you had been a little nicer to yourself, I wouldn't have done that. Since you don't want to die, I can only help you keep an eye on it. Otherwise, how am I going to explain to your parents in the future?"
Pei Wen suddenly lowered his voice: "Is this the only reason?"
"What?"
"What I mean is, you're so nervous and afraid that I'll get sick again. Are you really just worried that you won't be able to explain to my parents?"
Si Lan looked back: "What else?"
"I don't believe it."
"Then what do you believe in?"
“…”
At that moment, Pei Wen almost blurted out his true feelings.
Fortunately, I managed to control myself, but not completely. I asked without thinking, "So you're going to get married in the future?"
Si Lan:?
"What's this about getting married?"
Pei Wen realized that he had let the cat out of the bag and quickly tried to make amends: "I meant that you are going to get married, and it's not good to get too close to other men before you get married."
Si Lan: ???
"What kind of man is worth me following the rules for before I even get married?"
Pei Wenwan didn't expect that this was what she was thinking. After a moment of silence, all the words in his heart were suddenly blocked and he couldn't say anything.
At this time, Si Lan added: "And I won't get married either."
Pei Wen's heart sank: "So decisive?"
"Yes. Not marrying, but seeking a son-in-law."
???
She looked at me with a look of "what else can you say?" "We only accept live-in sons-in-law, right? Are you still worried?"
Pei Wen's mood became even more complicated, and he was a little overwhelmed: "Don't consider other possibilities?"
"Not considering it."
“…What if…”
"Nothing will happen. Are you annoying? Did I ask you to come to my house?"
Pei Wen choked again, and after a while he said, "Will you accept my gift if I come to your house?"
Now it was Si Lan's turn to be speechless.
After a long while, he asked back: "Why are you willing to come to my house?"
Pei Wen almost answered, but then he made an urgent change of tone: "If I meet the right person, I'd be willing to do it."
Si Lan: “…”
I said "oh" and suddenly couldn't respond.
The atmosphere became cold after a disagreement.
The scene was a bit weird.
Si Lan realized that the topic was going too far and immediately pulled it back: "Anyway, it's settled."
"I'll renovate your house tomorrow and live next door to you. Don't even think about getting out of my sight until you're better."
When Pei Wen saw her about to leave, he thought about how close he had come to success!
He didn't give up, and before she left, he stopped her: "You haven't answered me yet."
"Answer you what?"
Pei Wen: "You're so nervous and afraid that I'll get sick again. Are you really just worried about not being able to explain to my parents?"
Si Lan paused.
Standing at the door, the wind blew in from the open door, feeling extremely restless.
Pei Wen could feel from her back that she was really thinking this time.
She didn't move, and he didn't move either. Their breathing suddenly stopped, and time seemed to stretch extremely long.
Pei Wen waited anxiously for an unknown amount of time.
I'm a little scared too.
At this moment, Si Lan's fingertips suddenly moved. He couldn't see her expression, but he heard her hum very softly. He couldn't tell the emotion or the intention behind it. Then, without any response, she just walked away.
Pei Wen didn't hear the answer, but he felt that there was something wrong with the humming sound: "..."
