Chapter 696: Last (3)
As soon as Lu Cha took Shui Qianxi out of the main hall, the man on the bed opened his eyes.
Wen Ji checked his clothes. They were covered in dust and tattered, which did not match the soft bed beneath him.
He is indeed a bit dirty now.
He was too anxious to see the little flower demon and didn't tidy up properly.
Wen Ji hooked his finger in annoyance.
A ray of brilliant golden light suddenly appeared.
The next moment, his shirt looked brand new.
But Wen Ji's happiness didn't last long, and he became annoyed again.
Recalling the little girl's attitude, Wen Ji habitually twirled the hem of his clothes.
After his time in the fox demon's small world ended, he found that his strength began to recover, so he kept trying to break out of the hibernation capsule.
As a result, he accidentally failed to control the strength and destroyed all the small light ball worlds around him, and even the void was affected.
For the safety of the little flower demon, he could only forcibly untie the bond between her and 001 and send her back to her world first.
But...the little flower demon was so cold to him.
Otherwise, tell her the truth, who are you?
As soon as this thought came to mind, Wen Ji shook his head in self-denial.
What if the little flower demon doesn’t like the real him, then he will never see her again in this life?
How about pretending to be even more miserable?
The little flower demon likes it most when he acts pitiful.
Thinking of this, Wen Ji began to study whether it would be better to break his arms or legs.
However, Lu Cha seemed to have forgotten him and did not come for three consecutive days.
Poor Wen Ji stared at the door every day, but the little girl he was thinking about never showed up.
This day.
Hearing the faint laughter coming from outside the palace, Wen Ji finally couldn't pretend anymore and took the initiative to walk out of the palace.
In the courtyard.
Shui Qianxi was playing with a few banshees.
The girl lazily lay in a rocking chair beside her, watching the scene.
Her long light blonde hair was casually spread out, falling along the rocking chair, like flowing sunlight.
Her charming face is fair and delicate, and her blue eyes are slightly narrowed, making her look like a lazy and proud cat.
There was a hint of obsession in Wen Ji's eyes.
His little flower fairy is so pretty.
As if she noticed someone was watching her, the girl turned her head away:
"Are you feeling better?"
Wen Ji nodded obediently: "If you hadn't saved me that day, I'm afraid I would be dead now."
"The grace of saving my life should be repaid with my own body."
"No need." Lu Cha deliberately rejected Wen Ji's proposal:
"I didn't do anything. You got through it on your own."
"Now that you're well, let's go."
If you have the guts, keep pretending!
Wen Ji panicked: "You provided me with a place to stay and recuperate, how come that doesn't count as saving me?"
"I can stay and help you with the work to repay your kindness."
Shui Qianxi ran to Lu Cha's side and whispered:
"Monster Lord, this person suddenly appeared in the demon world. He might have some ulterior motive."
"We'll keep him here, investigate his identity, and then send him away."
Lu Cha relaxed and said, "I'll listen to Sister Qianxi."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Wen Ji.
Only then did I realize that the man’s originally dirty clothes were now clean and tidy.
The loose neckline reveals the collarbone vaguely.
The deep and gloomy silver eyes reveal a natural coldness and indifference, as if they are the top of an unreachable snow-capped mountain.
The flawless face, however, now had a pitiful and helpless expression, which made people want to bully and abuse it for some reason.
This holy flower on the mountaintop was completely stained with decadent beauty.
Is this what the little villain really looks like?
Lu Cha looked at him playfully: "What's your name?"
"Wen Ji."
"Warm in winter and cool in summer, bright and clear in the moonlight."
Lu Cha whispered Wen Ji's name and imitated his tone, saying, "My name is Lu Cha."
"The deer is calling, and the tea is drinking and tea is enjoying."
Wen Ji's eyes became gentle.
Of course he knew the little flower demon's name.
During the time he was trapped in the hibernation capsule, he would write her name on the cold capsule with his fingers every day.
"From now on, you will be responsible for cleaning the courtyard here."
After Lu Cha arranged work for Wen Ji, he planned to go out for dinner with Shui Qianxi.
Before leaving, Lu Cha seemed to remember something and turned to Wen Ji and said:
"If you don't clean the yard, you won't have food to eat."
I hope the little villain won’t starve to death!
Watching the girl with the evil smile walk away, Wen Ji's lips curled slightly, and his eyes were filled with tenderness.
She is still the little flower demon who likes to play tricks on people.
—
In order to stay with Lu Cha, Wen Ji obediently picked up the broom and cleaned the yard.
The news that Lu Cha left behind a man also spread throughout the demon world.
Who doesn't know that only female demons can live in the Demon King's Green Palace?
Now the Demon King has left an unidentified man here, obviously something is going on!
To the extent that, some gossipy and curious monsters would find various excuses to come to Qing Palace every day to secretly watch Wen Ji.
Wen Ji originally wanted to learn something about Lu Cha from them, but the demons were just watching from a distance and didn't come near.
Wen Ji couldn't find a chance to strike up a conversation, so he had to give up.
Until this day, Shui Qianxi came to deliver food.
In order to prevent the man from starving to death, Lu Cha asked Shui Qianxi to deliver meals to Wen Ji every day.
Shui Qianxi placed the dinner plate on the jade table in the yard.
I don’t know if Lu Cha wanted to trick Wen Ji, or if resources in the demon world were scarce, but there were only two dry buns on the plate.
Wen Ji didn't mind and just picked it up and ate it.
Although he didn't need to eat food given his status, the little flower demon had someone send it to him and he didn't want to throw it away.
Seeing the man eating the steamed bun in his hand carefully, Shui Qianxi thought he was cherishing the food, so she asked tentatively:
"Was food scarce where you used to live?"
The reason why she came to deliver food every day was, firstly, because of the order of the Demon King, and secondly, to lower Wen Ji's vigilance and find out his identity.
After all, the look in Wen Ji's eyes when he looked at the Demon King that day was as if he wanted to eat him.
She would not allow anyone in the Qing Palace with ill intentions to harm the Demon King.
Shui Qianxi felt murderous intent in her heart and suspected that Wen Ji's appearance was premeditated.
Wen Ji's eyes flickered slightly, and he replied following Shui Qianxi's words:
"Not only is food scarce there, but it's also like the demon world, with no sunlight all day long."
"I feel..."
