Chapter 40 Longevity Words 16(1/3)
Chen Rong brought the food upstairs and entered the room and saw Bai Xi standing by the window. The skylight shone on her beautiful face, and she didn't know what she was thinking about.
"I made the soup, you can drink some." Chen Rong put down the tray, and the fragrance filled the whole room.
Bai Xi originally wanted to refuse, but when she smelled the fragrance, she sat down by chance. She had not lived like a mortal for too long, and she was not used to it for a while.
But she doesn't hate this kind of life.
Bai Xi picked up the spoon, took a sip, and nodded with satisfaction: "Your cooking skills are very good, except for the first time..." She remembered the fact that Chen Rong used poison as cabbage, and couldn't help but laugh, and her hair fell on her side face. Before she could do it, a warm hand had already tied her hair behind her ears.
The fingertips streaked across the cheeks, itchy.
Chen Rong leaned closer and sniffed, looked up at Bai Xi's face, and said in surprise: "You actually have the fragrance of medicine on you. I haven't noticed it before. It's very light, but it smells very nice."
It's like the smell of ice and snow mixed with the fragrance of flowers.
Bai Xi was not used to being too close to people, so she responded and didn't say anything again, and focused on lowering her head to drink soup. She has been taking medicine since she was a child, and it was normal to have the fragrance of medicine on her body.
Chen Rong asked with his chin on his back: "Do you have any plans in the future?"
"Go to the East China Sea, but..." Bai Xi put down the spoon, and a trace of deepness was found between her eyebrows: "Someone may come to chase me, so..."
It would be very dangerous for her to meet Chen Rong's sight. Besides, Chen Rong has her own affairs when she comes to the secular world, so she can't come to find her, right?
Chen Rong nodded, and she also guessed that since the people in Medicine Valley had decided to take action, they would definitely not give up so easily.
"Then let's take a day off and set off." Chen Rong decided.
Bai Xi saw that Chen Rong had no intention of being surprised, and without hesitation at all, a strange feeling rose in her heart.
"Do you know how dangerous it is? Don't say that you have already had the mysterious level, even if I have not lost my spiritual power, I am not fully sure." Bai Xi reminded.
Chen Rong smiled indifferently: "Don't worry, I'm mentally prepared, just recover from the injury."
"Yes." Bai Xi lowered her eyes to cover up the emotions in her eyes.
"You two..." The system sighed: "You guys are so polite to get along."
Although these two people are already from the same camp, they still have gaps between them. Chen Rong dared not treat Bai Xi too casually, just like Bai Xi was just curious and grateful to Chen Rong, and she would not trust her completely.
Bai Xi has been defecating since she was a child and knew that everything was up to herself, so she would never completely entrust her safety to one person.
Chen Rong gave Bai Xi some spiritual power and went out for a walk at night, but this kind of thing was naturally proposed by Chen Rong. She had been in Kunlun for so long, and she hadn't experienced the popularity of the world for a long time. I miss it very much.
Bai Xi and Chen Rong walked side by side, with people coming and going on the street, and a bright moon in the sky just poked out from the east.
"I rarely came to the street before." Chen Rong smiled and started talking too much when he saw someone selling candied haws, so he bought two strings: "Try it."
Bai Xi took it, turned it around in her hand, but didn't eat it.
She also took it when she was a child, but later... she was banned from leaving Medicine Valley.
Chen Rong chewed a few, and suddenly there were more and more people around him, and the crowd walked towards places where they were against them.
"We're going to set off fireworks, we have to go there quickly."
"It's rare. It's said that it was a day when the county magistrate's daughter and the hairpin, so we just joined in the fun."
"It's so good."
...
Chen Rong was a little stunned when he heard the discussion in his ears. When he came to his senses, he was already squeezed away by the crowd with Bai Xi. Bai Xi stood there and seemed to have never seen such a scene before, and was a little at a loss.
Chen Rong hurried over and subconsciously grabbed Bai Xi's hand, "Follow me."
Bai Xi was stunned for a moment, and Chen Rong protected her to the teahouse outside the crowd without any reaction.
She was pulled and looked at Chen Rong's back, and the other party's hands were very warm.
This feeling...
Her eyelashes trembled and she slowly grabbed Chen Rong's hand.
It’s just that I’m afraid of getting separated, so there’s probably nothing wrong with it, right?
At the railing on the second floor of the teahouse, Chen Rong and Bai Xi sat down.
Bai Xi shook her sleeves, covered her hand, looked elsewhere, pretending that she was very natural, "There are so many people."
"Yes." Chen Rong poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Bai Xi, and also poured a cup himself, "The world is so lively."
After a while, a "bang" sounded on the city wall not far away, and a cluster of huge fireworks rose, and the gorgeous colors illuminated the entire sky.
Bai Xi looked up, her eyes reflected in her brilliance, but her face was still waving.
Chen Rong's eyes slowly fell on Bai Xi's face when he looked at the fireworks, and he looked at her quietly.
"What? Is there a flower on my face?" Bai Xi turned her head and met Chen Rong's gaze.
Chen Rong smiled slowly, his eyes clear and open: "Yes."
Bai Xi couldn't help laughing, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and she had a rare smile.
The clamoring sounds from the street interrupted the silence for the moment.
"Lin Ze, stop for me!"
When Chen Rong heard this name, he lowered his head and looked at the situation on the street. He saw Lin Ze running in front and chasing a young girl behind him.
Lin Ze noticed Chen Rong's gaze, looked up and was very happy, and shook his hand: "Brother Rong, save me!"
This guy couldn't watch it for a while and started to cause trouble again.
Lin Ze ran up to the teahouse and sat next to Chen Rong. The girl behind him also chased after him, with a little red face and a breathless crossing her waist.
"Come here." The girl pointed at Lin Ze.
It turned out to be a peach blossom. Chen Rong nodded, with a hint of disgust in his eyes, and said to Bai Xi: "A man who is too romantic is definitely not a good person. What do you think?"
Bai Xi nodded slightly: "That's right."
Lin Ze realized that the two of them disliked him, so he naturally understood that they had misunderstood. Brother Rong, who was stronger than gold, probably thought he was a man who was flirting with the flowers, right?
He is really wronged.
"Girl, why do you have to pester me?" Lin Ze leaned against Chen Rong again and explained to Chen Rong with a bitter face: "Brother Rong, I just went out just because I saw that this woman was bullied, so I said a few words, I really don't know her."
The girl was a little angry when she saw Lin Ze unable to wait to draw a clear line with her.
Chen Rong was confused when he heard this. Why was Lin Ze still unhappy? He quickly stopped: "What the hell is going on?"
"I just quarreled with my mortal enemy on the street, and he suddenly came out to talk to me..." The girl looked at Lin Ze with a hint of embarrassment: "My father said I'm already in the middle of the hair and it's time to get married, so... I'm very satisfied with Lin Ze."
Love is to capture Lin Ze as his husband, Chen Rong suddenly realized.
"I don't like you at all." Lin Ze's tone was firm: "And I have no intention of love."
Chen Rong nodded with satisfaction. This guy was not that hopeless, so he looked at the girl: "This lady, it's not sweet to make me feel so hard. Just go back."
The girl snorted, pretty and charming: "How can I let go easily if I, Zhao Luoyi, let it go? I know you are cultivating the truth, so I will also go to find the immortals and ask. Wouldn't it be a pair of free and easy mandarin ducks at that time?"
Lin Ze looked like a fly swallowing, and he didn't find Zhao Luoyi's cuteness at all.
Chen Rong frowned and grabbed the point: "What did you say you're your name?"
"Zhao Luoyi!"
Chen Rong nodded, took out a small notebook from his arms and compared it with Lin Ze's harem map. He yelled, and suddenly realized: "Fate is really wonderful. Lin Ze, you must cherish this fate."
Although Zhao Luoyi is not his wife, she is also one of her little lovers.
Lin Ze is so lucky that he can meet his lover.
Seeing Chen Rong suddenly turned against him, Lin Ze looked surprised and pondered for a moment, and said in a heavy tone: "I won't go with you, I will only marry the woman I love the most in my life."
Zhao Luoyi frowned, as if she was moved, and nodded: "Okay, I will go find you again."
After saying that, Zhao Luoyi turned around and left.
Chen Rong: "???"
She originally wanted to take this opportunity to teach Bai Xi how to make a flirtatious man that could not be asked for, but Lin Ze was so serious? She looked at Bai Xi with some concern, quite afraid that Bai Xi would change Lin Ze.
"Men are not good people," Chen Rong sighed: "Just like Lin Ze, don't look at him being serious now, he will likely have a lot of wives and concubines in the future."
Lin Ze was stunned. Just as he was about to say that he didn't, Chen Rong lit his mute hole and opened his mouth and couldn't speak. He really didn't want to!
Bai Xi put down the teacup and looked up at Chen Rong: "You..."
Chen Rong waited for her next sentence with anticipation.
"You like him, are you afraid I will fight you?" Bai Xi glanced at Lin Ze. It was the first time that she looked at this young man who was not astonishingly handsome, and her tone was a little cold: "You are thinking too much."
Chen Rong breathed a sigh of relief. It would be fine if Bai Xi didn’t like Lin Ze, but... what does she mean to like Lin Ze?
"I don't like him." Chen Rong quickly explained.
"No need to explain, when have you ever been so concerned about a man?" Bai Xi suddenly put down her teacup and left without looking back. Her lonely appearance did not hide her bad mood.
Chen Rong wanted to chase him, but was stopped by Lin Ze. Then he remembered that Lin Ze was blocked by him and could not speak. He sat down with some weakness and untied Lin Ze's mute hole.
"You, don't really like me, are you?" Lin Ze frowned and his tone was very serious. If that was the case, he would be very embarrassed. After all, although he was grateful for Chen Rong's care for him, he would not like a man!
"Tsk." Chen Rong glanced at Lin Ze and said angrily: "What dream are you having?"
