Volume 1 First Emotional Encounter Chapter 28 Wonderful Misunderstanding
Xu Yuyu turned on the cold water, and the cold water fell on her body, making her shiver.
She closed her eyes and held her breath, clasping her two thin hands tightly, stimulated by the cold water and lack of oxygen.
My heart, which was originally in turmoil, now feels like still water.
Time passed little by little until a voice pulled her back.
"I left my clothes outside."
Li Linxi's voice sounded outside the door.
Xu Yuyu, who was already calm, felt his heart suddenly contract when he heard Li Linxi's voice.
Xu Yuyu didn't react at all. She was holding her breath and subconsciously let out a cold sound.
As a result, the cold water was sucked into her nose.
"Cough! Cough!"
Xu Yuyu quickly covered her mouth and coughed, and her tears also flowed out.
Li Linxi, who was about to exit outside the door, heard Xu Yuyu coughing and opened the door without thinking.
But the door had been locked when Xu Yuyu entered, and Li Linxi could not open it.
Moreover, Xu Yuyu’s coughing sound kept coming in the bathroom.
"Yu'er! What's wrong?" Li Linxi asked anxiously.
But Xu Yuyu was choked so much that she couldn't speak at all, so naturally she couldn't return to Li Linxi.
Li Linxi, who was outside the door, didn't get an answer from Xu Yuyu. Without saying a word, she stepped forward and slammed the door open.
Li Linxi who entered said anxiously: "Yu'er! Yu'er! You..."
Before Li Linxi finished speaking, a spring scenery came into view.
Xu Yuyu didn't care at all that she was being looked at. She only felt that her lungs were itchy, but every time she coughed, her heart seemed to be torn apart.
Li Linxi stared blankly at Xu Yuyu.
Xu Yuyu coughed several times before he came back to his senses, and then he noticed that Xu Yuyu was taking a cold shower.
He pursed his lips to control his restless heart, and took two steps to turn off the cold water that hit Xu Yuyu's body.
Then he took off his coat and put it on her body, then squatted down and patted her back to help her calm down.
Xu Yuyu coughed and tasted the faint smell of blood, but fortunately Li Linxi breathed a sigh of relief for her, which made her feel much better.
Xu Yuyu spat out several mouthfuls of saliva, her eyes filled with discomfort and tears.
Li Linxi glanced at Xu Yuyu unconsciously, but she couldn't hide the anxiety in her voice: "Yu'er, it doesn't matter if you want me!"
Xu Yuyu turned her head to look at him. Li Linxi looked particularly different under the blur of tears.
The moment he saw Li Linxi, Xu Yuyu lost his mind.
Seeing her like this, Li Linxi thought something was wrong with her, so she quickly reached out and patted her back and continued to cheer her up.
The tone became more urgent: "Yu'er, don't scare me!"
Xu Yuyu was once again brought back to her senses by Li Linxi's voice. After she regained her composure, she quickly shook off the tears in her eyes.
Leng Yan saw Li Linxi with an eager face, and his brows slowly wrinkled. But there was a faint blush on his cheeks.
After all, she was completely naked now. If Li Linxi hadn't put a coat on her, she might have collapsed.
Her voice trembled slightly: "Get out!"
Li Linxi's body trembled. He subconsciously glanced at Yu'er's body, swallowed his saliva, and looked away in panic but reluctantly.
He quickly stood up and left at a loss: "Yu, Yu'er, I'm here to deliver clothes... I just heard you coughing. I was worried about you, so I hurried in..."
As he said this, Li Linxi went out and closed the door. After he went out, his heart beat faster and his blood veins swelled.
The image of Xu Yuyu's sudden springtime kept echoing in his mind, and Li Linxi's cheeks became hot.
He wanted to get that image out of his mind, but the more he did it, the more he couldn't forget it.
…………
Xu Yuyu in the bathroom looked at the closed door of Li Linxi who had exited. She bit her lips and looked very aggrieved. Even the tears she had just shaken off appeared again.
She felt aggrieved that she was completely exposed by Li Linxi!
Xu Yuyu clenched her fists, but she couldn't help but defend him: This can't be blamed on Li Linxi, after all, he was the one who got choked, and he was also worried about me...
She suddenly shook her head to get rid of the thought.
Changed my mind: It was obviously him who made a noise that caused him to lose consciousness, and then he accidentally choked on the cold water!
Xu Yuyu stood firm in her opinion, and it was right to blame him!
…………
At this time, Li Linxi had already fled out of the room and came to the living room.
In the living room, Xiao Haozi was chewing a pastry with one hand and drinking a glass of juice with the other hand. He seemed happy, but he was absent-minded.
Seeing Li Linxi running away, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, but there was a bit of discomfort in his eyes: "Hey! You look so worthless, didn't you just look at that little girl's body? What's the big deal?
"
Xiao Haozi gave him a look with a useless look on his face.
Li Linxi clenched her fists, her face flushed, and she glared at him: "What do you know!!"
Xiao Haozi took a bite of the pastry, drank a sip of juice with enjoyment and rolled his eyes at her, with a slightly weird tone in his voice: "Although I don't understand very well, it's not like you haven't seen that little girl's body. You are so shy."
What?"
Li Linxi's cheeks became even hotter when Xiao Haozi said this.
In his previous life, he accidentally saw Yu'er bathing, and that's how he met her, and then he started searching for her for a thousand years.
He turned his head away to cover up the heat on his cheeks: "Ahem, I...I didn't mean to..."
Xiao Haozi rolled his eyes at him, and then glanced at the direction where Li Linxi came down, with a complicated look in his eyes.
He noticed that Xu Yuyu had come down, and he did not stop in the living room. After all, it was not the time to meet her, so he disappeared.
…………
Early the next morning.
In Xuyuan Pavilion, Mu Mengzi turned around and wanted to continue sleeping.
But the incense that penetrated her nostrils made her stretch out comfortably.
She wanted to have a good night's sleep. After all, the incense smelled so good, the quilt was so warm, and the bed was so comfortable...
etc!!
Quilt!?
Incense!?
bed!?
At the same time, the memories of yesterday immediately came back to her, and the bed where Mu Mengzi felt so warm suddenly turned into an ice cave.
She sat up suddenly and looked at the unfamiliar room, her eyes darkened.
She looked down at her naked self, her hands and feet were cold.
I will not be fooled by Hu Zhe...
At this time, the memory of Li Yanxiao saving him came flooding back.
Mu Mengzi immediately fell limp on the bed. She couldn't imagine what would have happened if Li Yanxiao hadn't saved her.
She lay on Li Yanxiao's bed and thought about the scene when she woke up underwater and saw Li Yanxiao.
At that moment, Mu Mengzi's heartbeat sped up.
She put a hand on her soft chest and felt the sonorous and powerful heartbeat.
Her cheeks gradually turned red, and her fingertips traced the scar on her chest.
At this moment, Mu Mengziju was as sad, worried and anxious as a little girl.
She was afraid that Li Yanxiao was not the little boy before and that he would not remember her as a child. At the same time, she was also dissatisfied. If Li Yanxiao was the little boy before, why didn't he recognize her?
Or maybe he recognized it, but didn't recognize him...
Mu Mengzi was buried in the quilt, confused and melancholy.
Finally, thinking about the scene last night, I suddenly rubbed my hands on the pillow shyly.
She couldn't help but make excuses for Li Yanxiao.
If he was the little boy back then, he might have felt guilty for stabbing me and almost killing himself, so he didn't recognize me.
Mu Mengzi kept convincing herself with various reasons in her heart.
But there was also resentment in her heart, so she was very conflicted.
Angrily, she picked up the pillow and covered her head with it.
Suddenly she stopped.
Mu Mengzi was a little confused. Shouldn't she be taking a bath? Why did she appear here?
She lifted the quilt and looked at her naked body, her face instantly turned red like a red shrimp. Could it be that she...
Just when Mu Mengzi was annoyed and shy, there was a knock on the door.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Miss Mu, are you awake?"
Li Yanxiao's indifferent voice sounded outside the door.
When Mu Mengzi heard Li Yanxiao's voice, she put aside all her annoyance for a moment, leaving only joy and excitement in her heart.
She quickly got up and wanted to open the door, but when she got up, she felt cold and looked at her naked body.
Mengzi was faster and more direct than a rabbit. She immediately retreated into bed and pulled up the quilt to cover half of her face.
Her voice was so soft for the first time: "Wake up, wake up, come in!"
As she spoke, she wrapped the quilt a little tighter, leaving only half of her head exposed, looking very cute.
The door opened and Li Yanxiao walked in. He was holding Mu Mengzi's wet clothes yesterday, including his underwear.
He came to the bedside without changing his expression, and Mu Mengzi, who seemed to have half of her head exposed, said: "Your clothes have been cleaned."
As she spoke, Li Yanxiao placed all her clothes beside the bed under Mu Mengzi's gaze.
Mu Mengzi looked at her clothes and the underwear sandwiched in her clothes, her face was extremely hot.
"Thanks……"
Mu Mengzi's voice sounded faintly.
Li Yanxiao just nodded symbolically, then turned around and left, closing the door.
When Mu Mengzi saw him leaving, she immediately covered her head in the quilt.
It was the first time in her life that she felt so embarrassed, and it was also the first time that someone of the opposite sex touched her intimate clothes!
After being shy for a while, Mu Mengzi dragged her clothes under the quilt and put them on. Then she lay down on the bed with her limbs spread out and looked at the ceiling with blurred eyes.
"Miss Mu!?" Li Yanxiao's voice sounded outside the door again.
When Mu Mengzi heard Li Yanxiao's voice, he quickly sat up and said, "Well... well? What's wrong?"
"Miss Mu, you can come down and have breakfast!"
Mu Mengzi was stunned for a moment, obviously a little surprised: "Okay! Okay, I'll be down right away."
She walked to the door quietly, feeling uneasy in her heart.
She stretched out her hand to open the door, but her fingertips paused in the air. She quickly retracted her hand, then straightened her clothes and long hair.
After getting ready, Mu Mengzi took a deep breath and made herself look the same as usual.
When she opened the door, she originally had a look of expectation in her eyes, but when she saw no one was outside the door, she had a look of disappointment.
Mu Mengzi sighed and went downstairs.
Only then did she realize that her previous room was on the third floor. Returning to the second floor, Mu Mengzi glanced at the closed room and wondered what was inside.
But she didn't push the door open and peek inside.
She went downstairs to the living room.
At this time, Li Yanxiao was sitting aside and looking at the ancient book in his hand with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
Opposite her was a bowl of porridge with white smoke and some pastries.
Mu Mengzi looked at Li Yanxiao, and her heart that had just calmed down jumped into her throat again.
She bowed deeply to Li Yanxiao: "Thank you for saving me!"
Li Yanxiao raised his eyebrows and glanced at Mu Mengzi, with no wavering in his eyes: "Eat! Leave as soon as you finish eating!"
Li Yanxiao directly issued an order to expel the guests.
This made Mu Mengzi unexpected. Her smile was a little stiff and she said with a smile: "Sorry to trouble you..."
Li Yanxiao's eyes fell on the book and he did not speak.
Mu Mengzi didn't say much, sat down and started drinking porridge.
Her eyes drifted towards Li Yanxiao from time to time, and she accidentally saw that the book Li Yanxiao was reading was called "The Record of Mountain and Sea Demons"!
Mu Mengzi was curious. She had heard of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" but not "Record of Mountains and Sea Demons"!
She picked up a piece of pastry and took a bite. She hesitated and asked, "Are you the only one who lives in such a big house?"
Li Yanxiao stared at the book intently: "No, there are still a few people who are not here right now and may have to come back for a while."
Mu Mengzi chewed the cake and nodded: "By the way, last night..."
Li Yanxiao suddenly raised his eyebrows and glanced at her: "Tongtong is not a demon who does evil!"
Seeing Li Yanxiao's misunderstanding, Mu Mengzi waved her hands quickly: "No, no, that's not what I meant... I just wanted to ask..."
Originally, she wanted to ask Li Yanxiao how he got himself into the room on the third floor last night, but it was too difficult to explain.
So the question changed: "You, why do you want to keep a demon in your backyard?"
From Mu Mengxi's point of view, demons and humans are inherently at odds, so why would Li Yanxiao raise a demon?
Li Yanxiao glanced at her for a few times, then returned to the book: "Are all demons necessarily bad!?"
Mu Mengzi was stunned for a moment. She knew that demons were all evil, but the Tongtong last night made her feel as innocent as a piece of white paper.
Li Yanxiao didn't intend to say anything more on this topic, so Mu Mengzi changed the topic and said, "By the way, what kind of book is "The Record of Mountains and Sea Demons" you are reading? Why haven't I read it?"
As soon as this sentence came out, Li Yanxiao closed his hands and the book made a snap.
Li Yanxiao squinted his eyes and looked at Mu Mengzi.
The air became quiet for a moment, and Mu Mengzi didn't even dare to swallow her saliva, and looked at Li Yanxiao with wide eyes.
