◎ How could Anjiu cry because of him?◎
The two looked at each other, the man's eyes were deep and the girl's eyes were dull.
The girl was stunned for a long time before she suddenly came to her senses and her face turned red in an instant.
The young lady cried secretly out of grievance. She didn't want to be discovered so she held it in quietly and didn't dare to make a sound. However, she was still seen by others. It was extremely embarrassing!
She hurriedly raised her hand to wipe the tears from her face, stared at the young man in white in front of her with red rabbit-like eyes, choked up her little voice, and stammered: "I, I'm not crying because of that! I'm not that fragile, don't slander me with empty words!"
Pei Ji's expression paused, and a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes: "Why is that?"
An Jiu couldn't help pouting and stretched her little paw under his eyelids, "Here, look."
Pei Ji: “…”
There were several red marks on the girl's fair and tender hands, as if they had been rubbed heavily. The originally fair and flawless skin was covered by the red color and was even slightly swollen.
"How did you do that?" Pei Ji's voice was slightly deep.
Upon hearing this, An Jiu's little mouth curled up even higher, like a child who would fall down and get up on his own if no one saw him, but would burst into tears if seen by others.
He said pitifully and aggrievedly, "There was no water in the house, so I went to the well to fetch water, but the rope was too rough and it hurt my hands."
Are you crying because your hand hurts?
You know what, this is really An Jiu's style.
Pei Ji closed his eyes silently, and in a trance he felt as if his impatience just now was in vain.
He thought...she was crying because of his scolding.
Yes, how could An Jiu cry because of him?
This thought flashed through his mind, and Pei Ji twitched his lips. But this time, he did not turn his head and close his eyes, because he was afraid that if he didn't see her for a while, this woman would hurt him again.
Pei Ji had never seen such a delicate woman in his life.
Just splashing water can rub your palms raw, it's really like not getting your fingers wet with water.
Thinking this in his heart, he opened his mouth and ordered, "Go to the box and take out a jade-colored medicine bottle."
An Jiu said "Oh" and went to the medicine box to find the jade bottle he mentioned.
She uncorked the bottle: "This? Pour it directly onto your wound?"
Pei Ji shook his head, stretched out his uninjured hand, took the medicine bottle, and said to her: "Stretch out your hand."
An Jiu blinked her eyes and reached out her hand tentatively. The next moment, she saw the man open the bottle and pour the powder in it into her palm.
"Just apply it yourself and it will be fine tomorrow." He said lightly.
An Jiu stared blankly at the powder in his palm, subconsciously followed his instructions and rubbed it twice. It clearly looked like powder, but with a light touch, the powder melted into the skin like water. A cool feeling instantly spread from the palm of his hand, and the burning feeling caused by being rubbed by the thick rope disappeared at once.
"It's amazing! The pain goes away in an instant!" An Jiu opened her eyes wide in surprise, looking at him with her big, shining eyes.
The young man in white had a calm expression, but the corners of his eyes curved unconsciously.
He raised his chin slightly, not taking credit for himself, and said calmly, "I use that black bottle."
Anjiu nodded like a little chicken pecking at rice. After her hand healed, her little face suddenly brightened up.
After finding the black medicine bottle, she applied the medicine to him as Pei Ji said. The medicine was also very effective. As soon as the powder was sprinkled on, the wound stopped bleeding immediately, but Pei Ji's jaw was tight, as if he was in great pain.
An Jiu's heart trembled as he watched, and he couldn't help but ask, "Pei Ji, does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt. Continue." The man spoke calmly.
But his neck was covered in sweat.
An Jiu knew that pain was inevitable in something like this, and it was best to get it over with quickly.
So she said nothing afterwards, pursed her lips tightly as she applied the medicine, then took out the gauze for bandaging, wrapped the wound from shoulder to armpit, in circles, and finally tied a knot.
After doing all this, she breathed a sigh of relief, as she was sweating from nervousness.
"Okay." An Jiu said, took out a handkerchief from his waist and wiped his hands out of habit.
She has a bit of a mysophobia, and her original incarnation Anjiu also had the same problem, always wiping her hands after touching something.
Seeing the wet marks on the back of the man's neck, she almost subconsciously helped wipe it.
Pei Ji's body stiffened, and he suddenly raised his hand and grabbed her.
"what you do?"
"Let me... wipe the sweat off your face." The girl looked at him puzzledly with innocent eyes.
Pei Ji then realized that he had overreacted, and slowly let go of her, saying, "No need."
The girl seemed to have been reminded by him and realized that this behavior was not appropriate, so she did not insist.
"Well... I'll be out first. Do you want to have a good rest?"
"Okay." Pei Ji nodded slightly, pulled up the scattered collar with one hand, and covered the upper body of the woman.
An Jiu was walking out the door when she glanced back inadvertently and happened to see the man's white chest and the faint outline of his flat abdomen.
Oh, it’s the abdominal muscles?
He has been in a wheelchair all the time, but he still has abdominal muscles?
An Jiu was a little surprised. Perhaps because her gaze was too noticeable, the man on the bed suddenly looked up at her.
Suddenly, An Jiu's heart skipped a beat when he met that pair of dark and bottomless eyes. He immediately quickened his pace and left the room, never to see the scene inside again.
She raised her hand and patted her chest. It was just a glance, but that look was really scary.
They arrived here in the afternoon, and around mid-afternoon, the streets became busy again. An Jiu went out to buy food in the evening and heard people on the streets talking about the cult attack.
From people's fragmentary words, An Jiu pieced together what had happened.
Probably, the people living at the foot of the mountain received the news and rushed up the mountain together to have a fierce battle with the invading Demon Cult. With their large numbers, they rescued those famous and upright sects, but unfortunately, the secret manuals of magical skills were still snatched away by the Demon Cult, and the Demon Cult leader was not caught.
The Central Plains martial arts world suffered huge losses this time. Not only were the secret manuals of magical skills lost, but many people were also seriously injured. Many young talents from various major sects also died, which is a pity.
The most serious loss was the Golden Snake Villa, which was almost completely destroyed. Although Jin You was also a victim, the incident was caused by him, and the secret book fell into the hands of others. All the efforts were in vain, and the prestige of the Golden Snake Villa in the martial arts world plummeted to the bottom.
After this incident, the new leader of the Demon Cult finally established his reputation and achieved his goal of "making his debut and becoming famous."
An Jiu listened to the discussions of the crowd, went to the restaurant and ordered a few dishes, brought them back to the courtyard, and had a lonely dinner with Pei Ji.
At the dinner table, An Jiu asked worriedly, "Pei Ji, why haven't Brother He and Lin Qingyan come back yet? Have they gotten into trouble?"
Pei Ji shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.
In fact, An Jiu knew where they went. If he guessed correctly, He Ziqing and Lin Qingyan should have gone to find the fortune teller Wuming.
An Jiu and Pei Ji went down the mountain early, so they missed some important plots. In the plot, the male protagonist will stop the escaping Evil Ghost Face and then have a big fight with him, but his martial arts are not as good as Evil Ghost Face, so in the end he is still one step behind. When he is about to be defeated by Evil Ghost Face, the divine fortune teller Wuming appears to save him.
This is the halo of the male protagonist. Every time he encounters danger, there is a noble person to help him.
After Wuming rescued He Ziqing, He Ziqing asked Wuming to tell his fortune and figure out the whereabouts of a person.
Wuming asked him to stay by his side and serve him for a while, and only tell his fortune when he was happy. He Ziqing agreed.
As for Lin Qingyan, of course she followed He Ziqing.
So now, He Ziqing and Lin Qingyan are both beside the fortune teller Wuming.
I have to say that those big guys in the underworld always have some weird habits.
Then An Jiu asked about Ah Qi's whereabouts. Pei Ji only said that Ah Qi would come back in time, but refused to say anything else.
After dinner, An Jiu said to Pei Ji: "I will sleep next to you tonight. If you feel uncomfortable at night, remember to call me."
The girl looked very serious when she said this, as if since he was injured saving her, he had become her responsibility, and she would not feel at ease until she healed his wounds.
Pei Ji was silent for a moment, then nodded indifferently.
As night fell, the bustling Golden Snake Town gradually became quiet, the candles went out, and the world completely became a sea of night.
Pei Ji was lying peacefully in bed, sleeping in the middle of the night, but was suddenly awakened by a strange sound.
He suddenly opened his eyes. In the darkness, his black eyes were clear and bright, without any trace of sleepiness.
He turned his gaze towards the door, the direction from which the sound came.
It was a dark night and I forgot to close the window last night. There was a full moon and the bright moonlight shone in, like a layer of silver frost on the ground.
There were two light knocks on the door, and then two more knocks after a long time. The knocks were very light and the time intervals between them were also very long. If he had not been awake, he might not have noticed it at all.
It was as if the person outside the door, although knocking, did not want to wake him up.
Pei Ji got up, groped his way to the door in the dark and opened it.
The girl who was sitting on the threshold with her back against the door suddenly felt empty behind her and fell backwards onto his legs.
The girl tilted her pale little face up, her big black, bright eyes reflecting the moonlight, like two small lakes, looking up at him in surprise.
She was so surprised that she couldn't speak clearly: "Pei, Pei Ji, why did you come out?"
The expressionless man in a white undergarment sat in a wheelchair, looking down at her. He said in a flat tone, "Shouldn't I ask you why you are here?"
The girl's eyes drifted around as if she was feeling guilty. After a long while, under the man's gaze, she patted her butt and stood up. She almost buried her head in her chest and whispered as thin as a mosquito: "I, I had a nightmare."
"What?" Pei Ji didn't hear clearly.
"I, I said I had a nightmare and couldn't sleep!" The girl's voice suddenly became louder, as if she had given up. Her voice was crisp and tender, with a sense of bluffing. "I didn't mean to wake you up. I'm just going to sit here for a while. I won't stay too long. I'll go back to my room when I get sleepy..."
The girl chattered on and on, and it seemed that the more she spoke, the more confident she became.
However, before she could finish her words, the young man in white behind the door suddenly opened the door slightly.
"Come in, don't sit outside, the ground is cold."
His eyes were clear, enveloping her like moonlight.
The author has something to say:
An Jiu was not moved, not moved, not moved, until the end of the article. (Important things should be said three times)
Moreover, she will abuse men, abuse men, abuse men!!!
