Xie Zhao held Cheng Yaoyao in his arms as if he were holding a fragile treasure, and the hostility between his brows completely turned into tenderness.
The surging yang energy from Xie Zhao continued to flow in, and Cheng Yaoyao couldn't help but rub against Xie Zhao and opened her eyes. She was conscious, but her whole body was soft and she curled up in Xie Zhao's arms: "Xie Zhao, you are here... I didn't run around."
The soft and tender words almost broke Xie Zhao's heart. Xie Zhao tightened his arms, wishing he could turn Cheng Yaoyao into a small ball and hide her in the softest part of his heart so that she would never be hurt again: "I know. My sister is very good, and everything is fine. Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Cheng Yaoyao immediately said coquettishly: "My back hurts, I just bumped into the wall."
Xie Zhao stroked her back with his big hand from the back of her head to make sure that there were no injuries. Then he said, "Be patient, we'll go home and apply some medicine."
"Okay." Cheng Yaoyao felt uncomfortable all over and just wanted to leave this damn place immediately.
Xie Zhao put Cheng Yaoyao on the ground, straightened her collar and skirt, took off his shirt and put it on her. Cheng Yaoyao stood on one foot and said, "My shoes."
Xie Zhao turned around, searched on the ground, picked up Cheng Yaoyao's shoes from the scattered branches on the ground, and half-knelt down to put them on her.
A cool voice sounded in the corner: "Cheng Yaoyao, you are really amazing. In just a few months, you have trained this man to be as obedient as a dog."
Cheng Yaoyao raised her eyebrows and was about to turn around when Xie Zhao gently pinched her ankle. He used his big hands to gently wipe the dust off Cheng Yaoyao's snow-white feet, and then wiped off the mud on the uppers of the shoes before putting on the shoes: "The soles of your shoes are broken, I'll fix them for you when you get home."
Cheng Yaoyao understood what Xie Zhao meant. For someone like Cheng Nuonuo, ignoring her was more painful than beating her.
Cheng Yaoyao held his shoulders and asked, "I saw Nianniang just now. I wonder if Jianjian was with it."
Xie Zhao skillfully fastened his shoe buckles with his rough, slender fingers, stood up and said, "They are outside."
The two of them asked and answered each other, and their aura seemed to be formed, and nothing could get in. Cheng Yaoyao was beautiful and slender, and the man was tall and cold. The sunlight fell on them, which was very pleasing to the eyes.
Cheng Nonuo was surly at first, then became furious and lost all reason: "Cheng Yaoyao, are you deaf? Where did you hide my spiritual spring? Tell me! You...what are you going to do with me now?"
The ground was covered with tangled raspberries, with sharp thorns on their branches and leaves. Cheng Yaoyao frowned in distress, and his body lightened as he was picked up by Xie Zhao. He was wearing long trousers and short military boots, and strode over the thorns and walked towards the door.
Cheng Nonuo completely ignored him, biting her teeth until they were almost broken, and her dry and yellow face was twisted into a terrifying look.
She would rather Cheng Yaoyao scolded and beat her, and asked Xie Zhao to avenge her, than to be completely ignored like before.
The eldest daughter of the Cheng family is beautiful and dazzling, and everyone loves her. Cheng Yaoyao's beauty tramples on her dignity. After everyone marvels at Cheng Yaoyao's beauty, the astonishment and sympathy on their faces when they see her are like a slap in her face.
Even if Cheng Yaoyao was a little more ordinary, her life would not be so miserable.
Shen Yan, Cheng's father, and Xie Zhao in front of him all overlapped. Everyone loves Cheng Yaoyao, even though she is proud, arrogant, and empty-headed, there are still countless people who throw themselves at her skirt one after another.
Apart from a beautiful face, how is Cheng Yaoyao better than her?
In her new life, she had clearly taken advantage of everything and successfully crushed Cheng Yaoyao. But why did she go back to her old ways?
It's all because of Cheng Yaoyao! If Cheng Yaoyao hadn't snatched away the opportunity that belonged to her, how could she have ended up like this!
Seeing Xie Zhao holding Cheng Yaoyao and walking to the door, she suddenly jumped up with a crazy smile on her face: "Go to hell!"
Cheng Nuonuo stabbed Xie Zhao's vest with the sharp scissors in her hand.
Cheng Yaoyao was lying on Xie Zhao's shoulder. He saw this scene and screamed, "Watch out for your back!"
Before Cheng Nonuo could smile triumphantly, Xie Zhao seemed to have eyes on his back and dodged, causing the scissors in Cheng Nonuo's hand to miss the target and she fell unconsciously into a bunch of raspberries.
"ah!"
An inhuman scream pierced my eardrums, startling the birds pecking at raspberries on the roof and causing them to fly up.
The hut in front of me seemed like a scene from a Grimm fairy tale. Rays of sunlight shone down from the dense treetops, illuminating the hut wrapped in layers of green branches and leaves. A thorny path was cut out by a hatchet at the entrance of the hut, and the branches inside the hut were also tangled, with raspberries several times larger than normal growing wildly, almost breaking through the roof.
Cheng Yaoyao jumped out of Xie Zhao's arms, grabbed Xie Zhao and told him to turn around. There were some bloodstains on Xie Zhao's vest, she felt around carefully, luckily it was not the wound left by scissors, but the mark of being cut by a raspberry branch.
Cheng Yaoyao finally let out a breath that had been holding his breath.
Xie Zhao said: "Don't be afraid, she can't hurt me."
Cheng Yaoyao said nothing and turned to look at the hut.
Cheng Nonuo fell to the doorstep, covering his face, and rolled and curled up on the ground like an earthworm.
Cheng Yaoyao tensed up. Xie Zhao saw that her face was pale and whispered to her: "Don't be afraid, here..."
Cheng Yaoyao gritted his teeth, and boundless anger burst out from his charming and clear peach blossom eyes. He suddenly pulled out the hatchet from Xie Zhao's waist and rushed towards Cheng Nuonuo: "I will kill you!"
All the blood in Cheng Yaoyao's body rushed to his head, and there was only one thought in his mind: Xie Zhao was almost killed! The raging anger swept away his rationality, and Cheng Yaoyao wanted to tear Cheng Nuonuo to pieces.
Xie Zhao hugged her from behind. It was the first time he saw her angry. Cheng Yaoyao was noble by nature and could not tolerate dirty things. To her, people and things in the world were divided into two categories: like and non-existence. She never took the initiative to provoke people she disliked, nor would she take the opportunity to retaliate. Even though Cheng Nuonuo had harmed her several times and hated her, Cheng Yaoyao never beat her up afterwards.
At this moment, Cheng Yaoyao was like an enraged beast, full of murderous intent. His pair of peach blossom eyes sparkled, making him look exceptionally beautiful and dangerous.
Cheng Nuonuo finally managed to get over the severe pain, and then she saw Cheng Yaoyao wielding a hatchet at her in anger. She grinned and said in a hoarse voice: "Kill me, and I'll use you as a cushion, I won't regret it..."
"Cheng Nuonuo!" Cheng Yaoyao was furious again, her slender fingers tightly grasping the hatchet. Xie Zhao had to spend some effort to restrain her without hurting her: "Sister!"
Xie Zhao turned Cheng Yaoyao's face and asked her to look into his eyes: "Sister, I'm fine, just look at me."
Xie Zhao covered Cheng Yaoyao's ears. His magnetic and deep voice blocked out Cheng Nonuo's words and awakened Cheng Yaoyao's reason.
Cheng Yaoyao's eyes trembled slightly, and she looked into a pair of narrow and deep eyes. Those eyes seemed to contain the vast starry sky, which extinguished all the malice and anger in her heart. Cheng Yaoyao panted and gradually came to her senses: "Xie Zhao..."
"I'm fine. Sister, she's not worth getting your hands dirty." Xie Zhao kept stroking her hair and soothing her in a low voice.
Cheng Yaoyao burst into tears. At this moment, all the fear, grievance and panic came up and rushed into Xie Zhaohuai. Her hands tightly hugged his waist: "She almost killed you... I'm going to beat her to death!"
Xie Zhao's chest vibrated, and his lips lifted into a smile involuntarily: "Okay, sister, protect me. Let's go home."
Cheng Yaoyao turned around and glared at Cheng Nonuo, unwillingly saying, "But she...just let them go like this?"
Xie Zhao's eyes flashed with anger, but he said calmly: "Han Yin and Zhang Xiaofeng are still looking for you. If you alarm the villagers, it will be very troublesome."
Xie Zhao looked at the small house wrapped by the huge raspberry. This scene was really bizarre. If Cheng Yaoyao's secret was discovered, it would be very dangerous. As for that scumbag and Cheng Nonuo, he would naturally make them pay the price.
Cheng Nuonuo looked at Xie Zhao and talked to Cheng Yaoyao for a few words, and Cheng Yaoyao regained his composure. She couldn't help but feel hatred and jealousy in her heart, as well as a hint of unbelievable relief.
They just let me go like this?
Cheng Nonuo suddenly gasped and covered her stomach. Her stomach had just hit the door sill, and now it was aching, as if something was falling down. Cheng Nonuo's face turned pale and soon she broke out in a sweat.
Therefore, no one saw Cheng Yaoyao walk back to the door and pour some spiritual spring water on the ground.
Cheng Yaoyao wiped her hands. She did not avoid Xie Zhao when she was watering the spiritual spring. She turned back nervously at this moment, but Xie Zhao did not look at her. Instead, he picked up a little fat cat from the ground, and the little white cat squatted gracefully not far from Xie Zhao.
"Stubborn!" Cheng Yaoyao ran over in surprise.
Jianjian raised his head in Xie Zhaohuai's arms, called her "hmm" twice, and raised a paw. His hair was disheveled, and his pink flesh pad was pierced in several places. He hurriedly asked, "Hey, what's wrong? Where have you been these days? Did you hurt yourself?"
Xie Zhao said: "It was Jianjian who showed me the way. And Niangniang."
Jianjian puffed out his chest, with a look of pride on his face, while Niunniang meowed disinterestedly.
Xie Zhao briefly explained the whole story. It turned out that as soon as he entered the back mountain, he saw the little white cat running towards him, meowing, as if to lead the way for him. When Xie Zhao chased after it, Jianjian was outside the house, howling and scratching the branches with his claws, trying to get into the window.
Cheng Yaoyao picked up Jianjian and touched its fleshy pads lovingly: "No wonder I saw Nian Nian just now. Is it because you are too fat to get in?"
He raised his chubby face stubbornly: "Yeah! Yeah!"
Cheng Yaoyao rubbed his fingers over the small flesh pad, and a few drops of spiritual spring water seeped into the wound, instantly healing it. Jianjian licked his paw, and it didn't hurt at all. He immediately jumped down and went to the side of the little white cat again.
Cheng Yaoyao held Xie Zhao's hand and waved to the kittens: "Let's go home."
Jianjian and the little white cat turned to look at the house. Five or six cats with shiny fur were gathered around, hiding in the grass, staring at the snakes and birds with eager eyes.
Cheng Yaoyao added: "I'll make some dried fish for you."
The two kittens immediately stretched out their short legs and ran after it.
The vegetation in the forest is lush and green, and the scenery is beautiful. This is a valley in the back mountain, and few people come here due to the terrain.
Cheng Yaoyao held Xie Zhao's hand, walked on the soft grass, and breathed in the fragrance of pine needles in the air. It seemed like a lifetime ago. She couldn't believe she had only been in that small house for less than an hour.
Inside the room, Cheng Nonuo's stomach pain became more and more severe. She looked down and saw a stream of blood flowing slowly down her thigh.
No, it's impossible... A terrible guess emerged in her mind. She was too thin, and her period only came every few months. That was why she was able to make Shen Yan believe that she was really pregnant that time in Shanghai.
At this moment, looking at the blood slowly flowing between her legs, she was gripped by a wave of heart-wrenching regret. When in Shanghai, the Shen family wanted to take her to a big hospital for a physical examination several times, but Cheng Nuonuo always found various excuses to refuse. It was for this reason that Shen's father and mother drove her and Shen Yan back to the countryside.
If she had known that she was pregnant, the situation would have been different when she was in Shanghai!
Cheng Nonuo was very emotional and suddenly felt a sharp pain in her stomach. She didn't have time to think about it and crawled towards the door desperately, but found that the door was blocked by raspberry branches again.
A rustling sound came from the branches and leaves, and a fishy smell peculiar to cold-blooded animals came over. In the dim light, countless slender and twisting snakes were seen crawling out from the raspberry branches and leaves.
Cold, slimy snakes kept slithering across my body, making a creepy hissing sound.
"Ah!" The heart-wrenching scream was so horrified that it was inhuman. "Help, help!"
The overlapping layers of branches and leaves masked the screams, and only a faint sound was heard before being blown away by the forest wind.
