Qin Shu woke up on the afternoon of the third day.
She slowly opened her beautiful eyes as she felt the numbness, pain and strangeness of her body being reorganized.
Xie Lanzhi, who was sitting on a chair beside the bed, was in her sight.
The man with broad shoulders, narrow waist and noble bone structure was leaning on the back of the chair, holding a book in his hand, like an immortal who could only be admired from afar and not approached. The strong visual impact of nobility and elegance coexisted, which was the look Qin Shu loved very much.
Qin Shu thought back to last night's double cultivation which was like torture, and the anger in her heart disappeared in an instant.
The light from outside the window cast a layer of warmth on Xie Lanzhi's body. The man lowered his eyebrows and eyes, turning the pages of the book with his slender fingertips.
When Qin Shu saw this scene, she felt a sense of peace and tranquility, which made her feel indescribably sweet and satisfied.
Xie Lanzhi seemed to be aware of Qin Shu's intense gaze, and his long eyelashes blinked slightly, like a small palm-leaf fan slowly rising.
The man's calm golden eyes suddenly lit up with a gentle smile.
"Ah Shu, you're awake!"
Xie Lanzhi took the book in his hand, stood up and walked to the bed and sat down.
Before Qin Shu spoke, he bent down and kissed her forehead: "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat?"
Qin Shu shook her head and tried to get up, but the pain made her break out in cold sweat.
hiss!
It hurts so much!
She was in so much pain that she didn't want to forgive Xie Lanzhi anymore.
Xie Lanzhi carefully held the person in his arms: "I'm sorry, it was my fault last night. I didn't control myself well."
Qin Shu said subconsciously: "I don't blame you, after all..."
As soon as she opened her mouth, she was surprised by her own hoarse and broken voice.
Xie Lanzhi looked at Qin Shu's expression and took the water cup from the table: "Drink some water to moisten your throat. You shouted too much the day before yesterday."
"..." Qin Shu glared at the man with sharp eyes, as if saying, it's all because you bully me!
Xie Lanzhi realized that Qin Shu was about to get angry, so he didn't dare to say anything and handed the cup of water to her mouth.
Qin Shu put away her sharp eyes, lay in the man's arms, and drank water in small sips obediently.
Her well-behaved appearance caught Xie Lanzhi's eyes, and his gaze deepened a little.
So good.
He was so well behaved that he wanted to bully others again.
The day before yesterday, Qin Shu was so well behaved, so soft, so sweet, and so delicious.
It was so delicious that Xie Lanzhi was already looking forward to their next time practicing dual cultivation of body and mind.
Qin Shu finished a glass of water and lazily lay in Xie Lanzhi's arms, playing with the man's long silver hair with both hands and braiding the long hair beside his ears into several small braids.
In order to appease others, Xie Lanzhi, who was leaning on the bed, allowed Qin Shu to do whatever she wanted on his head.
Qin Shu had enough fun and started to mess with Xie Lanzhi's clothes.
The man was only wearing a thin white gown. The fabric was soft and light. Qin Shu didn't know whether she was venting or just having fun. Her fingertips, filled with spiritual power, cut the clothes into strips like a sharp blade.
Xie Lanzhi's tense and naked chest was soon revealed, including two points that were rarely seen in public.
Qin Shu was finding the game boring and was about to move to another place when she caught a glimpse of the book in Xie Lanzhi's hand.
She raised her eyebrows slightly: "What are you looking at so seriously?"
Qin Shu's voice has regained some of its previous alluring and soft tone.
Xie Lanzhi handed the book he was reading to Qin Shu, ignoring her stunned expression, and explained softly: "The day before yesterday, the dual cultivation was not going well. I was cramming and preparing to study more. Next time, I will definitely not let you be unconscious again."
Bang!
Qin Shu knocked the book with pictures and annotations in the man's hand directly onto the bed.
She said angrily: "You knew I was unconscious and I had no reaction, but you didn't stop. How can you be like this!"
Xie Lanzhi looked at Qin Shu who was losing her temper with tolerance and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Finally got angry.
He was really afraid that Qin Shu would feel suffocated.
Xie Lanzhi held Qin Shu's hand, brought it to her lips and kissed her: "It's my fault. I was a little too excited the first time and couldn't control myself. I promise there won't be a next time. Ah Shu, can you forgive me?"
His affectionate and gentle golden eyes looked at Qin Shu sincerely.
Qin Shu couldn't stand the man showing weakness like this, and her heart softened immediately.
Qin Shu didn't want to just let go, so she snorted proudly and lay in the man's arms in silence, as if to say, "I'm still angry and haven't forgiven you yet."
Xie Lanzhi knew Qin Shu so well that he naturally knew that she was no longer angry.
He stroked Qin Shu's hair and said, "Ah Shu, I can stay with you for the next half month."
Qin Shu was full of surprise: "Really?"
Xie Lanzhi nodded: "Really, when you have rested well, we will set out to find grandpa."
Qin Shu immediately got up after hearing this: "Let's go now!"
As soon as she got out of bed, her legs went limp and she fell to the ground.
A pair of strong arms caught the person steadily.
"Ashu, you need to rest."
Qin Shu held the man's arm to stand steady, and said coquettishly: "Carry me to the outer room."
Xie Lanzhi didn't dare to disobey, so he picked the person up and carried him outside.
Qin Shu took out a green porcelain bottle from the medicine shelf filled with medicine bottles and poured out a magic pill filled with spiritual energy from it.
As soon as she took the elixir, she began to jump around full of energy.
"I'm fine now. I can go find grandpa!"
Qin Shu, who had regained her vitality, did not notice Xie Lanzhi's darkened golden pupils, nor the light hidden deep in his eyes.
Xie Lanzhi suppressed the urge to pull Qin Shu onto the couch, but he couldn't control himself from imagining that he was no longer worried that Qin Shu would suffer during their dual cultivation, and that he could do whatever he wanted to bully her.
He walked up to Qin Shu and smiled gently: "Okay, let's go find grandpa."
As the two of them came out of the Sumeru mustard seed, a sound of ghosts howling and wolves howling was heard.
"Qin Shu! You finally showed up. I thought something happened to you! I almost parted ways with that bastard Fan Cang!"
Xue Chen spoke very quickly, his face was haggard, and his eyes were full of red bloodshot.
Looking at Fan Cang and Yan Xishan beside him, they both looked worried as if they had not had enough rest.
Qin Shu smiled at them gently: "Sorry, something delayed me for a few days."
Fan Cang, Yan Xishan, and Xue Chen were relieved to see that everyone was fine. However, when they saw Xie Lan standing behind Qin Shu, wearing a black robe that covered himself tightly, their expressions changed.
How did this evil spirit appear?
Qin Shu held Xie Lanzhi's hand and introduced him to the others: "This is my Taoist partner. His name is Xie Lanzhi. You can just call him Brother Lan."
"Hello, Brother Lan!"
Xue Chen was the most sensible one. He just called people as soon as he opened his mouth without any pressure.
Fan Cang called out in a somewhat stiff tone: "Brother Lan——"
God knows, he is older than Xie Lanzhi.
Xie Lanzhi raised his head, revealing his cold golden eyes, and nodded to the two of them reservedly, as a greeting.
