Chapter 617: Distress
Sheng Ze carried Shen Qingqian upstairs for the rest of the day, but Shen Qingqian didn't want to talk to him, so Sheng Ze didn't say anything either.
After traveling through the mountains and forests for a whole day, Shen Qingqian was carried on his back, and it was not convenient for her to lie on him, so she could only support herself with her hands on his shoulders and keep a certain distance from him.
This posture may not seem like a big deal at first, but it can be very tiring after a while.
Fortunately, Sheng Ze was not the kind of person who liked to act like a hooligan. He did not deliberately create any accidents to force Shen Qingqian to lie on his back, otherwise Shen Qingqian would not have let him carry her on his back for a whole day.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Shengze walked to a slightly open place not far from the water source and stopped.
"Let's rest here tonight." He turned his head and asked Shen Qingqian for her opinion.
His breath sprayed on Shen Qingqian's hand on his shoulder, making Shen Qingqian's heart tremble, and he nodded quickly, "Okay."
Sheng Ze put her on the stone with the hem of his clothes as usual, then asked her for a tent and went to work.
Shen Qingqian watched him set up the tent, watched him collect firewood around, brought the firewood back and started a bonfire, and then said to her: "There seem to be fish in the stream over there, I'll go see if I can catch a few, call me if you need anything."
"Yeah." Shen Qingqian nodded.
She could see that Sheng Ze had never left her sight since he put her down. According to Sheng Ze's habit, he should have gone hunting, but for her safety, he actually said he wanted to go fishing, because the stream was where Shen Qingqian could see it.
Sheng Ze quickly went to the stream. Shen Qingqian sat in the tent, looking outside through the gauze curtain.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, there is nothing wrong with Sheng Ze. He almost never tells Shen Qingqian what he has done for the Shen family, but without his protection, who knows what kind of life the Shen family would have lived since they were exiled.
But these are two different things from him liking himself.
Shen Qingqian didn't know what it was like to like someone, because she had never liked anyone in her past or present lives.
But Shengze is using his actions to let her know little by little what he would do if he liked her.
It seems that apart from the strange fact that he insisted on letting her take charge, Shengze has always been serious and considerate to her.
In addition to having a very positive attitude and being considerate in daily life, he also likes to share with her what happens around him.
Shen Qingqian thought about how Sheng Ze would talk to her whenever he had the chance these days, telling her about military matters, Liang Cheng's arrangements, and the situation outside.
When Shen Qingqian thought of this, his expression became a little strange as he looked at the figure not far away.
It turned out that, without realizing it, she had taken it for granted that Shengze would often share news with her.
As far as she knew, the class stratification in Dajin was very serious, and much information was held by a few people and rarely shared with outsiders. And what Shengze did, it was no exaggeration to say, would only happen between a man and a woman.
So, did he decide on her from the beginning?
Night fell completely. Shen Qingqian was still looking down in thought when she heard Sheng Ze shout, "Qianqian, get out of the way!"
Shen Qingqian snapped back to her senses and was shocked to see a brown bear charging towards her!
As soon as Sheng Ze's voice fell, he was already behind the brown bear, holding the soft sword wrapped around his waist in his hand, and stabbed it straight at the brown bear.
