Did Pei Xiqing really praise her and like her just now?
Before outsiders came, she thought she was pretty good-looking. She had heard that there were many people with special abilities out there who were handsome and gave her a sense of security.
In the future, will there really be someone who treats her like Brother Duan?
…
When the banquet was over, the villagers diligently cleaned up the area.
When Pei Xiqing came over with a cup of warm water, Duan Xiaolin was sitting under a big tree in the village, leaning against the roots with his eyes closed to rest.
She followed and sat down.
Duan Xiaolin opened his eyes.
After he took off his coat and put it on the ground, the man pulled her to sit down.
“The night sky here is nice.”
After Pei Xiqing sat down, he looked up at the starry sky and couldn't help but sigh, "Yes, this place is really nice. Who would have thought that there would be such a place in the end times?"
I have lived here for about a week. Today I participated in the villagers preparing a banquet and experienced the liveliness of the gathering.
The village is now peaceful and everything has returned to normal. The only sounds around are the chirping of cicadas and the rustling of leaves in the wind.
Pei Xiqing rubbed his arms, feeling the coolness of the night.
It is relatively cool, but it still feels a bit cold after blowing for a long time.
She handed the cup to the man: "Drink some water."
Seeing him drink so much wine just now, knocking out the whole table, he finally couldn't hold it anymore and sat aside alone.
The man held her in his arms and asked, "What did you talk about over there?"
"What what?"
"With the cousins."
"Nothing, just some girls' talk." Speaking of this, Pei Xiqing couldn't help but bumped his chest with her elbow: "You really are..."
Duan Xiaolin: "I really am?"
"Isn't it rather likable?"
"What?"
He didn't understand what she meant.
Pei Xiqing pinched his face: "Someone likes you, did you know?"
"Isn't it you?"
"I said except me."
"Really?" He raised the corner of his lips and touched her cheek, "Are you jealous?"
Pei Xiqing slapped his hand away: "No."
"What did they tell you?"
"Of course I'm praising you." Pei Xiqing leaned against the roots of a large tree, lazily admiring the vibrant starry sky. "Brother Duan is so wise and brave. He saved the people in the village. We are all grateful to you and admire you very much."
She knew that the villagers probably hadn't communicated with people from the outside world for a long time, and the appearance of Duan Xiaolin made them feel both admiration and surprise. But she was right, not only the villagers admired him like this, but there were also many people outside who did the same.
Duan Xiaolin stroked her back gently with his big hand: "What about in your heart?"
The pair of narrow eyes hidden under the wire glasses were deep and extremely deceptive, calm and sharp. When they looked at each other, they seemed to contain a dark and mysterious forest, making people afraid to look directly at them.
"...Scheming idiot." Pei Xiqing was silent for a while, then let out a laugh. Then, looking at the man's dazed expression, she burst out laughing.
Duan Xiaolin did drink a lot, more today than he had in all these years.
As the drunkenness spread, he also laughed along with Pei Xiqing.
His voice was even more hoarse due to drunkenness: "Well, Tu, I didn't expect you to think of me like this."
There was a hint of surprise in his words, and also... a hint of danger.
Pei Xi had been attracted to men more than once, especially when he looked at people intently, with deep affection in his eyes, she could not suppress the throbbing in her heart.
He lowered his head slightly, and before he could say anything else, Pei Xiqing came over and kissed the corner of his lips.
Duan Xiaolin's eyes were hot and gentle.
He pinched her face and responded with a kiss.
He gently stroked her cheek as if it were a treasure.
"I hope I can give you what you want."
