Chapter 124 Shui Shui's Daily Life
After two hours of rapid speed, Lin Guantang arrived at the Zhuyun District where Huo Shizhen's mission was located. It was already early morning.
Following the first rays of sunlight, Lin Guantang ran to the agreed location, panting, and pushed open the half-closed door of the quaint courtyard.
This is a courtyard with a long history, which can be seen from the extremely tall ginkgo tree in the yard. What's more, the building behind it is also covered with vines, red brick walls and mottled gray cement, and traces of the passage of time are everywhere.
Lin Guantang glanced past the building in a few seconds, and then his eyes were completely fixed on the figure under the ginkgo tree.
Tall, broad and upright, it looks like clouds reaching into the sky.
Qia also heard the door open and turned to look at him.
The long silver hair fluttered in the wind like mist.
Fortunately, fortunately——
He was actually still waiting, and he didn't seem to be in a bad mood because of waiting for too long.
Lin Guantang met Huo Shizhen's gaze and subconsciously smiled with joy.
His anxious mood instantly turned into excitement, and he didn't care about anything else and immediately ran towards the yard.
Huo Shizhen also walked towards him, but he walked slowly and calmly.
Under the brilliant rays of light, it should have been an extremely beautiful scene for them to run towards each other.
However, the atmosphere was ruined by Lin Guantang's sudden exclamation.
It wasn't that he did it on purpose.
He kept looking up at Huo Shizhen's figure walking towards him, and didn't notice anything subtle about the seemingly ordinary soil under his feet.
The result was that he stepped on the soft soil at the edge and fell directly into the ditch, falling forward uncontrollably.
——Who is the wicked guy who dug a hole at the door and didn’t fill it up!
Lin Guantang strongly condemned this uncivilized behavior in his heart.
Fortunately, he had enough self-control and was quick-witted. He quickly jumped to the other side of the ditch with his other foot, and moved his whole body forward. He staggered a few times and should have kept his balance, but he didn't expect that there was still soft soil under his feet.
Lin Guantang glanced down and scanned the ground around him.
Only then did I realize that the entire yard had been renovated. Except for a winding stone path in the middle and the ginkgo tree, the rest of the yard was covered with soft, renovated soil. Even the vines that climbed up the building had their roots removed, leaving only large branches and leaves, still retaining the last bit of their life's brightness.
The stone path leading directly to the main hall was not very wide to begin with. When it was almost at the gate of the courtyard, it split into two, extending into two paths, one leading to each end of the gate.
As for the area facing the gate, there wasn't even any actual renovated soil. A small horizontal pit was simply dug with a few branches placed on top. The branches were covered with a thin layer of paper, and on top of that was a layer of sand.
——So this trap was deliberately set up at the door. Whoever comes in first will be unlucky enough to step into it.
Lin Guantang jumped onto the soft soil, and while he was still trying to balance his body, he had already seen through everything.
Fortunately, Huo Shizhen saw that he was unstable and did not continue walking slowly. He walked over quickly, reached out and picked him up by the waist, spun him half a circle in the air, and finally landed on the stable stone road.
Lin Guantang subconsciously raised his hands and clasped them behind his neck.
The wind blew their hair, but this little incident did not affect their hurried meeting.
Lin Guantang raised his head and looked at him, actually wanting to question who was so lacking in public morality and had ill intentions in digging a hole at the door.
But when he suddenly met Huo Shizhen's smiling eyes at such a close distance, he forgot what to say for a moment.
A sharp breath lingered, and it was hard to tell whether it was the wind blowing up the night dew or the special induction of pheromones, which made Lin Guantang suddenly feel particularly sober, as if he was being pulled into some strange realm.
The only thing left in his sight was the person in front of him, and his heart was filled with long time nostalgia. It had been a long time since he had seen someone so close.
Although it has been less than a week since we last met.
But who can control his own heart?
Especially if you rush here, it's definitely not to meet an unimportant person, and it's definitely not to go for a long-distance drive.
Lin Guantang clasped his fingers together and felt Huo Shizhen's hair become messy due to being entangled by his fingers.
I was thinking aimlessly, wondering if I should do something at this time.
His gaze slid down from Huo Shizhen's eyes, along his high nose bridge, to his lips as thin as a blade.
It looked a little dry, so Lin Guantang felt inexplicably thirsty. He licked the corner of his mouth and had an urge to get close to it.
He thought so and did so.
She stood on tiptoe, raised her head, leaned closer, and put her hands on the back of Huo Shizhen's neck, pulling him down.
Lin Guantang tilted his head, and his lips suddenly connected seamlessly.
Then he felt that Huo Shizhen seemed to stiffen all over, his heart beat rapidly, and he had countless bad premonitions.
——
Why is it so stiff? Is it because it is unacceptable?
No way, no way, he wouldn't resist this sudden close contact, or would he resist doing this in broad daylight, destroying his aloof personality, or would he resist me...
Lin Guantang's countless panicked thoughts suddenly stopped, as if he had been electrocuted and all turned pale in an instant.
Because Huo Shizhen clasped his waist with one hand, and passed the other hand through his hair, pressing the back of his head, lowering his head and leaning forward, increasing the force.
Lin Guantang only felt his lips being licked, which made him shudder. He subconsciously pursed his lips, and then his lips were bitten.
He subconsciously opened his mouth in pain, and the snake's flexible tongue took advantage of the opportunity to enter. The next moment, he felt a cold breath sweeping through his mouth.
The uninvited thing probed into it unscrupulously, stirring up his tongue and disrupting his breathing. His breath became fragmented and he could not find the opportunity and space to enter and exit smoothly.
His breathing became more and more rapid, his vision went dark and then flashed with golden light, and for the first time in his life, his nose took on the responsibility of circulating all the air.
Lin Guantang's hands lost some strength, and they slid down from being tightly clasped together, barely resting on his shoulders.
It's a bit sad to think that the reason for death from suffocation is too shameful.
Fortunately, Young Master Huo probably didn't want to get involved in some weird lover's murder case that resulted in death by suffocation.
His breath completely covered up and drove away the disgusting smell of crude alcohol, and he finally mercifully stopped the attack, allowing Lin Guantang to breathe freely.
The sound of rapid breathing mixed with muffled coughs sometimes makes people feel happy.
Huo Shizhen spoke in a disjointed manner, soothing the person lying in his arms as his back rose and fell, with the corners of his mouth curled up imperceptibly.
After sensing that Lin Guantang's breathing had completely stabilized, he casually said:
"Is this compensation for being late?"
Lin Guantang felt a question mark popping up above his head.
Although he was indeed late, there was no agreed time.
So strictly speaking, it cannot be considered late.
The most important thing is that Lin Guantang did not do this out of guilt.
but--
He looked up and thought tentatively:
"If so, are you satisfied?"
Huo Shizhen's eyes swept across his still flushed face, staring at his bright red and moist lips, and the faint bite marks on his lips.
It didn't really take much effort, but the color was slightly darker than the surrounding area, making it look as if it was soaked in blood.
He raised his hand and stroked his cheek, pressing gently on the bite mark. It felt delicate and soft, and quite comfortable to the touch.
But Lin Guantang seemed startled by his sudden action, or perhaps he felt a chill from his icy fingertips, or perhaps he was actually in pain——
In short, she glared at him with some displeasure.
But the watery patch has no lethality, but rather looks pitiful.
Huo Shizhen smiled without any guilt and answered his question casually:
“I’ll be disappointed.”
Lin Guantang shrugged his shoulders and said:
"So no."
——Not out of guilt or any other emotions, just because I wanted to do it, so I did it.
I just put my feelings into practice.
"I know."
Huo Shizhen finally gave up on ravaging his lips, then went around his cheeks, around his neck, and took him in his arms, turning towards the pavilion, almost pushing him into the house.
She leaned over his shoulder again and almost blew into his ear:
"You rushed all the way here and didn't sleep?"
"fine."
Lin Guantang shook his shoulders - he really felt the breath lingering around his ears, making him feel a little itchy.
Huo Shizhen was about to put his whole body on his shoulders again. They were so heavy and cold that Lin Guantang felt as if a huge snake was wrapped around his neck.
Alas--
It’s better not to continue this horror fantasy.
He pulled himself out of his thoughts and felt that he hadn't acted that anxious. After thinking about it, he felt that he still needed to be polite:
"Not very sleepy."
Huo Shizhen raised the corner of his mouth and did not refute this statement, but he obviously did not believe it.
Twenty minutes later, Lin Guantang lay on the clean bed that he had made temporarily and fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up groggily, I was still a little confused as to where I was.
I sat on the bed for a long time before I fully woke up. I washed up in the built-in bathroom, came out and opened the curtains. The strong sunlight hit me in the face, so bright that I couldn't open my eyes.
How long did I sleep?
Looking at the clock again, it was already two or three in the afternoon, the hottest time of the day.
But it wasn't that hot in the house.
When I walked out through the long and narrow corridor, I could still feel a faint cool breeze passing through the hall.
Maybe it's because it's been in disrepair for a long time and has no visitors, so it's particularly cool.
Lin Guantang walked along the corridor towards the stairs. Along the way, almost all the rooms in the houses he passed by, including those he saw, had their doors and windows wide open.
The rooms were either empty and had been cleaned out;
There were packages of all sizes piled up there, and it was unclear whether they should continue to be sealed or waiting to be cleared out.
Walk down the stairs, looking down as you go.
Huo Shizhen was sitting in the living room on the first floor, resting with his eyes closed on the sofa facing the stairs. There was another person sitting opposite him, and from the back it was Wen Tiange.
Luo Fan was there too, but he was standing at the door holding a long shovel. He was covered in mud, even his face was covered in mud, and he was sweating profusely. He was accusing someone with great emotion:
"Junior, aren't you ashamed to just sit here and do nothing while you watch us digging the dirt all over the yard?"
"I'm a civilian employee, not responsible for heavy manual labor. I suggest you invite the person who started this to join the digging team."
Wen Tiange spoke in a relaxed tone. Not only did he not intend to share the hard work with his senior, he was also leisurely tinkering with his homemade drinks, showing that he would not stop until he had annoyed the senior to death.
But her conscience was not completely bad after all, so she pushed the prepared honey lemon water with ice cubes to the side of the table and motioned him to come over and drink it.
How can he not be considered a caring junior?
