Chapter 71
As soon as Xia Meng came out of the black tower, she looked back as if she had realized something.
When you look closely at the exterior glass of the Black Tower, you can see the color of the sky clearly reflected on the glass.
At this time, Heitata's body was covered with thick clouds.
Xia Meng took a quick look and for a moment even felt that the thick clouds reflected on the tower were more realistic.
Thick clouds pressed down heavily.
Xia Meng felt a little short of breathing.
My chest feels tight and I can't breathe oxygen.
Li Zhou followed her gaze and suddenly whispered, "It looks like it's going to rain soon."
Xia Meng retracted her gaze: "What?"
Li Zhou turned his head and looked down at her. "It's probably going to rain in five minutes. Do you want to get home before it starts to rain?"
Considering the time and speed of the subway arriving at the station, it will take them at least ten minutes to get home.
Xia Meng blinked: "Do you have a solution?"
Li Zhou hummed, turned around, and squatted with his back to her.
Xia Meng realized that he was planning to carry her back.
She had seen his lightning speed.
I remember when they first met, he carried her on his back once.
At that time, she was busy rushing to Fan Xue's court, and he took her with him.
At that time, neither of them probably thought that they would develop into a romantic relationship now.
Xia Meng lay on his back without hesitation.
She wrapped her arms around his neck.
She rested her chin on his shoulder.
Li Zhou raised his hands to support her legs and reminded her, "Hold on tight."
The next second, he jumped up from where he was.
He didn't run, but jumped into the air.
Just like a bird, he leaped lightly into the air and landed precisely on a streetlight pole more than ten meters away. Using one foot to gain leverage, he took off again, this time leaping directly towards the higher treetops.
Quickly enter the city from the protected area.
Li Zhou simply parkoured on the roof.
Xia Meng lay on his back, her eyes wide open all the way.
This experience is absolutely amazing.
Stimulate!
For a moment, the weight pressing on her heart seemed to be blown away by the oncoming wind.
She couldn't help but take a deep breath.
The air in the city is filled with the smell of fireworks.
There is an atmosphere of peace and prosperity.
This calmed Xia Meng down a lot.
She understood that Li Zhou probably noticed her depressed mood and did this on purpose to help her relax.
She tilted her head to look at his profile and said softly, "Thank you."
Li Zhou raised the corner of his lip: "If you really want to thank me, give me a kiss."
Xia Meng didn't hesitate and kissed him on the cheek.
She understands.
People who are just in love like to be sticky.
She had seen it many times before when she watched her friends fall in love.
Men and women all like to stick together.
She didn't feel anything special.
She just felt that it was nice to have Li Zhou by her side.
She could feel his liking for her.
It's a very pure love.
She wasn't concerned with any particular criteria—her friends had complained to her many times about how difficult it was to find a relationship after entering society. In school, people looked at grades, personality, and looks; in society, they looked at body shape, work, ability, potential, and even wealth—there were rules and regulations everywhere.
What could Li Zhou want from her?
If she were to be honest, she would realize that as a freshman right out of school, she actually had nothing.
So she always believed that Li Zhou liked her only because he liked her as a person.
Good.
She likes this purity.
Xia Meng turned her head, put her face close to his ear and closed her eyes.
She tightened her arms slightly.
Li Zhou.
She wondered, what would they do if one day they really stood on opposite sides?
…
Sure enough, Li Zhou returned to her home within five minutes.
He landed directly on her balcony.
The door to her balcony was not locked.
Because of this height, it is impossible for thieves to come here.
If there really is one, then with the ability of the person coming, even locking that door will not be able to stop him.
Xia Meng stretched her body.
Turning around, he said, "I'm going to take a bath and do some preparation for hypnosis. You should go and rest too."
Li Zhou stood on the balcony, holding the door with one hand, looked at her and asked, "Can I stay here with you?"
Xia Meng thought about it.
Hypnosis requires an environment where she can feel safe.
Having him here does make her feel more secure.
She nodded: "Okay, please do as you please."
After saying that, she turned around, bent down, and took out a key from the secret compartment under the coffee table. She raised her hand and threw it to him: "Door key. Although I know you think it is more convenient to go to the balcony, but..."
She smiled and said, "As a real boyfriend, I have to go through the necessary procedures."
Li Zhou raised his hand and took the key.
A smile appeared on his face.
Xia Meng ignored him, turned around and went back to her room to get a set of daily clothes, and then went into the bathroom.
The water began to flow in the bathtub.
When the tank was half full, Xia Meng took off her clothes and lay down.
The warm water covered her body.
She leaned her head back against the edge of the tub, her hands on either side, looking up at the ceiling.
Relax and empty your mind.
Don't think about anything else.
Forget all the troubles.
The water level rose little by little.
Xia Meng slowly sank herself into the water.
The hot water slowly flooded over her head.
She opened her eyes underwater and watched her head float up and spread out in the water.
The water is sparkling.
Her heart finally calmed down little by little.
After soaking for more than ten minutes, she got up.
After changing my clothes, my head was still wet when I walked out.
Li Zhou had also changed into a new set of clothes, a more homely style that was somewhat similar to the one she was wearing.
He was leaning on the sofa, watching the fight between Maomao and Ergou.
Of course, it was basically Ergou who acted unilaterally, and the cat just let him harass it in various ways.
Perhaps because the two have been together for a long time, Ergou's fear of cats has completely disappeared, and he has become extremely bold, pulling the cat's tail and biting its ears. He is even more noisy than the monkeys in Mount Emei.
The cat was really harassed too much, so it turned its head and pressed it down, aiming at its neck and biting it.
Ergou squeaked twice and finally calmed down.
Li Zhou propped up his head, looked down, and couldn't help laughing.
This was the scene Xia Meng saw when she came out.
She couldn't help but walk over and chuckled, "Is it so interesting to watch them fight?"
Li Zhou raised his eyes and looked at her.
He smiled and said, "I was just thinking that our spirit bodies have different personalities from us."
His cat is much calmer than him, and sometimes shows a bit of sinister side.
Her ferret is quite like her, very lively, smart and naughty.
It was a bit like when he first met her.
He didn't know if it was his imagination, but her carefree demeanor had faded a little in the past few days.
There was a look of solemnity between her brows, as if she was troubled by something.
So just now he kept wondering whether it was because of his appearance and his existence that she could no longer be as carefree as before.
Xia Meng: "Oh? Will the spirit body have similar personalities to its master? I don't think Ou Xu and his little brother have similar personalities."
Ou Xu is a noisy guy, but his dog Mee Zai is very docile.
Director Bai and his spiritual body, the panda, are not very similar. Director Bai is always in a hurry to do everything, but his panda is always slow and leisurely, slower than a sloth, and always looks like he has big ambitions.
Li Zhou nodded: "That's true."
He raised his eyes and asked, "What are you going to do next?"
Xia Meng replied: "Just lie on the bed."
Li Zhou stood up and said, "Wait a minute then."
Xia Meng: "Hmm?"
Li Zhou went to get a hair dryer: "Dry your hair first."
He was already familiar with the arrangement of things in her house.
Xia Meng smiled and sat down on the sofa obediently.
He sat on the other side of the sofa and carefully helped her blow dry her hair.
Xia Meng's hair is not long, only reaching her shoulders.
The hair is very fine and soft.
Li Zhou blew her hair while running his fingers through her straight black hair, and the fragrance dissipated with the heat waves from the hair dryer.
When her hair finally dried bit by bit under his hands, he turned off the hair dryer and put his arms around her body.
He rested his chin on her shoulder.
"Xia Meng." He called softly.
Xia Meng: "Hmm?"
Li Zhou was silent for a few seconds, then he slowly said, "No matter what the future holds, I only hope that you will always be your free self. I will do my best to protect you."
Xia Meng turned her head.
She clearly didn't say anything.
How did he guess?
Is it the keen insight of being an S-class?
Xia Meng smiled slightly.
She nodded. "Okay."
…
She declined his offer to accompany her and returned to her room alone.
She took out her favorite essential oil from the bedside table, pure lavender essential oil, which could help her soothe her mind, relax her body and help her fall asleep.
She lit the aromatherapy lamp, drew the curtains, and climbed onto the bed.
The process of hypnosis is simple.
She released her mental power, and under her conscious control, she walked into the depths of her memory.
A breeze blew past me.
Blowing up countless dandelions.
Xia Meng knew that those were just fragments of her memories.
Round white balls of fluff blew past her in the wind.
Xia Meng reached out and accurately found the memory she wanted to revisit.
The moment I held that dandelion, the ground beneath my feet extended forward.
Smoke billowed on both sides of the road.
The familiar sound of bagpipes came from afar.
The back of a chubby little rabbit wearing a top hat appeared in front of her.
There are mushroom caps of different heights all around.
The little rabbit jumped forward and shouted in a lively voice, "Brother Wise! I'm back!"
"I brought three people back with me, and they said they wanted to see you!"
Xia Meng looked in the direction of the sound.
On the giant mushroom cap, the gentle-eyed caterpillar looked over quietly and said, "Long time no see."
Xia Meng heard herself asking, "Why long time no see? Have we... met before?"
Luo Xunfei smiled: "Indeed, I have seen it, but I think you don't remember it now."
"My name is Luo Xunfei."
"The last time we met? I can't remember. It must have been... a long, long time ago."
"I've been looking for you for a long time."
"Why are you looking for me?"
"I can't answer your question now, but you will know the answer yourself in the future."
"I just wanted to see you. That's why I came."
"Since you're already here, why not let me see with my own eyes whether little Cui Yang's predictive ability is accurate or not?"
"Do you want to know where the door is to leave from here?"
"That direction is the territory of the Red and Black Kings. Li Zhou and Herman are the King of Hearts and the King of Spades."
"If you want to leave here, you need to be a brave man. Only by killing one of the Red and Black Kings can you and everyone else leave here safely."
His voice, his eyes, gradually reappeared before her eyes.
She took two steps forward and looked him in the eye.
She heard his voice through the fog and into her mind.
"Wake up!"
