Chapter 40 Heart-Stirring Moments



After all the villagers went home happily, Chu Xi, with a happy little tail, gave two big meat buns to several families with whom he had a good relationship. He received a basket of excited thanks. Chu Xi, who was embarrassed, quickly ran back home.

Little Stone, who rarely goes out, was so happy today. He went to many places and stuffed his pockets with snacks. Although they were just wild fruits and the like, he really wanted to go out every day...

Of course, Chu Xi couldn't control Old Man Shi's food. If you want to eat it, you can cook it yourself or buy it! Our food isn't that delicious!

Of course, if Shi Peng has that intention, we should be more generous and just think of it as spending money to avoid disaster!

The bustling yard soon became quiet, and it was even quieter because it was far away from other neighbors.

Shi Peng's professional sensitivity made him observe the surrounding situation carefully. He walked around the area and decided to build a yard as soon as possible. The wall should be built higher and glass fragments should be inserted on it. A strong lock should be hung on the gate of the yard. He should also adopt one or two dogs. Otherwise, this place would not be very safe and he would not feel at ease even if he returned to the army.

After finishing her work, Chu Xi coaxed little Shitou to sleep and prepared to go to Shi Peng's room to talk about the buns.

They didn't live in the same room when they moved to the old house, and they had to live separately even in this dilapidated house...

Chu Xi was unwilling to do so. After all, she was still unfamiliar with him and her heart still hadn't accepted such a strange man...

As soon as I walked out of my room, I was suddenly stared at by a pair of eyes...

Startled, she took two steps back in panic and was pressed against the wall. Shi Peng's strong and firm hand rested directly on Chu Xi's left shoulder. Astonishing heat was transmitted to her, and the masculine scent that hit her face made Chu Xi at a loss in an instant.

Shi Peng lowered his head slightly and moved closer until their noses were just inches away.

"W-What do you want to do?"

She was so nervous that she couldn't help swallowing, her long and thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and her head lowered involuntarily.

Shi Peng gazed at his pretty and gentle daughter-in-law. Her clear and bright pupils, curved eyebrows, and slightly trembling long eyelashes, her fair and flawless skin was faintly blushed, and her thin lips were as tender and juicy as rose petals.

He sighed softly,

"You, do you have anything to tell me?"

"What's the matter, Baozi?" Chu Xi's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. Was the space exposed so quickly?

Before she could finish her words, her chin was lifted up by the man's big hand, forcing her to look at him.

"What do you think? Answer seriously..."

He planned to trick her to find out how many little secrets she had.

But Chu Xi looked at him with her wide, innocent eyes, which were slightly charming, without saying a word. Shi Peng almost broke down. "Do you know that you are setting fire to someone?"

"Today I suddenly saw you making so many buns, using so much meat and other ingredients. The money I gave you last time must not be enough, right? I'll give you some more later, but you'd better keep a low profile in the village so as not to arouse envy..."

"Don't say it's money your family sent you. Just keep a low profile from now on. If you really don't want to, you can just eat it secretly at home!"

Her freshly baked white cheeks could feel the warmth of the man's hands and the touch of the rough calluses. She struggled a bit, but didn't dare to use too much force. She didn't know if she could beat this bull. She probably could throw him away with her mental strength, or maybe a spatial blade...

Forget it, he is your husband in name only. Don’t always think about murdering your husband.

I might as well just go for it. At worst, I can just carry the little stone with me.

"Some were sent by my brother, some were herbs I collected in the mountains, and some were earned from selling goods on the black market..."

"You!" Shi Peng was furious.

"You're incredibly brave! There are so many wild animals in the mountains, and it's fraught with danger. How could you take your child into the mountains? Are you trying to save your life?"

I was furious, but at the same time I regretted my inaction.

He frowned and looked at her with complicated eyes for a while, feeling a little depressed.

His wife doesn't trust him and doesn't seem to be willing to rely on him. She does everything by herself, which really makes her feel incapable...

I have never asked him for money on my own initiative. The last time I gave him money was because I needed to buy materials.

He even dared to go to a place like the black market where all kinds of people gathered, especially bad elements. What if... he didn't dare to think about it.

How come this girl is so brave?

Although they have obtained a marriage certificate and are husband and wife, they have only been together for a few days, so I can't blame her.

It was her own fault for being careless. If she hadn't been forced into doing this, she probably wouldn't have tried so hard to do these things, right?

Thinking of this, Shi Peng said seriously,

"Chu Xi, I'm your husband, your man. From now on, I'll be the one supporting this family. You and Xiao Shitou should never take such risks again, okay?"

"As for the old house, you don't have to pay too much attention to them. I will be in charge of the communication. I will always stand by your side from now on."

"So, if you have anything in the future, we'll discuss it and keep our promises. Don't hide it from me, okay?"

Chu Xi thought about Shi Peng's performance in the past few days and felt that this man was clear-headed and not pedantic. He was also so tough and straightforward in dividing the family property and coordinating the construction of the house. Overall, he made great contributions.

I just don’t know how to say that the family division was successful, I’m still very curious!

So he nodded,

"good."

When Shi Peng heard this, he smiled and said, "This is my good wife."

As he spoke, he suddenly leaned over and kissed Chu Xi's cherry lips, his nimble tongue sliding into her mouth...

In this vast sea of people and with so many different beings, meeting you really feels like meeting the inevitable fate that happened by chance.
