It was the first time Pei Xiqing heard him say so much in one breath.
The look in his eyes when he looked at Ling Lang was filled with a gentle smile.
She listened patiently to him finish his words, then said, "If he knew, he would definitely hope that you could find your own happiness. Even though he doesn't say it, I know he cares about you."
"Forget it, maybe I'm not cut out for love. I can't learn it." He said, "When I see someone cute, I just want to tease them and make them cry."
Pei Xiqing covered her lips.
"childish."
"Maybe."
"Are you really going to give up?"
"……Um."
Pei Xiqing touched Xiaobai and said, "It's okay. You have a long life ahead of you, and you will meet more and better people. If you don't know how to love, someone will teach you how to love."
"That's easy to say." Ling Lang stood up, "Forget it, I won't talk to you anymore."
"Bye then, thank you for telling me this today."
"Just bored."
Ling Lang turned around.
Leave the yard.
But I couldn't help but look up.
The woman in the yard was teasing the dog with a smile on her face.
He subconsciously covered his chest.
Suppress the throbbing coming from inside.
Being stubborn and persistent in pursuing what you cannot get and refusing to give up is the behavior of a fool.
Without a word, he pulled up his collar and hid half his face in the shadows.
Then he will be a fool.
…
Pei Xiqing waited until he left before slowly putting away the smile on her face.
Ling Lang seems to be unrestrained, but in fact he is not silent and ignorant of the world.
She smiled.
It was just that her understanding of Ling Lang was too superficial.
Ling Lang has also learned Duan Xiaolin's tricks.
There was something behind his words to her.
True and false.
She couldn't tell which one was true and which one was false.
I hope he really let it go.
Pei Xiqing spent the whole day reading materials. When Duan Xiaolin came in the evening, she mentioned her encounter with the man wearing a faceless mask in the yard.
Duan Xiaolin chewed the beef, shaved off the tough bones, and threw them into Xiaobai's bowl. "His name is Qiu Chao, and he's a member of the Franlon clan."
"What brings you to the base?"
"Play." Duan Xiaolin paused and said, "I'll check your health condition."
"He said I was the best case he'd ever seen." Pei Xiqing said cautiously, "I don't want to be a test subject."
"No," he said. "That won't happen."
"He's an expert in this field?"
"yes."
Pei Xiqing was thoughtful, "Today, I showed him my supernatural powers."
"How does it feel?"
"No," she said truthfully, "I still can't really master it. How did you control it before?"
"After awakening, you'll naturally gain control over it." He asked, "Do you want to take you out into the wild to try it out? Actual combat might help you get the hang of it faster."
Pei Xiqing's eyes lit up: "Okay, okay!"
I was almost suffocated in the base during this period.
They still have a lot of things to deal with, and from what Long Yan said a few days ago, they are about to leave the base.
Before this, Duan Xiaolin said he wanted to take her out, and of course she was happy to do so.
The base is not a safe base at all for her special identity.
Duan Xiaolin brought up what happened during the day again. He seemed to know Ling Lang had been there, and asked, whether intentionally or unintentionally, "What did he say?"
Pei Xiqing summarized Ling Lang's words during the day and told him a brief summary.
Duan Xiaolin chuckled, seeming a little helpless.
Pei Xiqing hit his arm: "What are you laughing at?"
"Do you think it's true or false?"
"I want to ask you something." She didn't expect Duan Xiaolin to be able to detect something wrong so quickly. She knew it wasn't just her illusion. She kept asking the man who was cooking, and even when he remained unmoved, she directly got between him and the kitchen counter and acted coquettishly next to him, "Tell me."
Duan Xiaolin's expression was unpredictable. He held her lower back with his clean hands. "It's hard to say."
"real?"
"Yeah," he said, "but he's not someone who gives up easily. At least, I haven't seen him do that yet."
"I was deceived?"
"There's a 50% chance." He revealed, "That kid came here to ask Long Yan for advice."
Pei Xiqing took the kitchen knife from his hand, turned around to pick up the vegetables, and silently complained, "It's true that those who keep company with vermilion will become black."
She could see that Ling Lang was a guy with evil intentions.
How innocent can the people who are with Duan Xiaolin be?
They would use any bad tricks on her.
Duan Xiaolin came up from behind and held her hand, "Why are you scolding me too?"
"You should know the answer, right?" she snorted.
Duan Xiaolin kissed her ear and said, "Yeah, I know."
The two of them cooked together. After eating, Duan Xiaolin cleaned up the dishes while Pei Xiqing accompanied Xiaobai for a run in the yard. When they were tired, they went into the house to take a shower and prepare to go to bed.
But after she entered the bathroom and took off her clothes, she found that the door had been opened from the outside.
As soon as the tall and straight man appeared in the bathroom, the space was instantly squeezed.
Pei Xiqing quickly hugged her chest, "What are you doing?"
Duan Xiaolin began to unbutton his shirt. "The base's water supply will be cut off for a day soon. We need to conserve water. It's a good time to wash together."
Pei Xiqing: "Wait a minute! I'll wash quickly, it will only take five minutes!"
"It will stop in eight minutes."
"Why did the water supply suddenly stop at the base?" In the bathroom, she was filled with shame, her cheeks flushed. "This has never happened before."
"Once it's finished, I'll ask the water supply bureau tomorrow. How's it going?" He said with great sincerity, "Maybe it's related to the road repairs these days."
"Is it really only eight o'clock?"
Duan Xiaolin had already taken off his shirt, revealing his muscular chest. "Yes."
Pei Xiqing quickly took off her clothes, got into the bathtub, and said, "Take a shower."
Duan Xiaolin took it calmly, "Okay."
She turned around, her smooth white back facing the man.
Duan Xiaolin only took a glance and then lowered his eyes.
For a moment, no one spoke in the bathroom, only the sound of dripping water.
Pei Xiqing didn't dare to act rashly. The surroundings were too quiet. She felt uncomfortable all over. She cleared her throat and said, "Um...Brother Duan, I've been looking at information all day today. I want to prove something. Can you cooperate?"
"you say."
She hesitated: "I want to bite you."
