"I'll take you back first." The breath of safety fell into her ears.
"What? You just left like that? Let me tell you, this matter is not over today!" The family members of the deceased continued to make unreasonable troubles.
Lou Xi turned his head in anger, and his dark eyes that had been somber narrowed dangerously at this moment. He glanced at the group of people, his eyes were cold and sharp, and his thin lips raised lightly, "It is true that today's matter... is not over yet!"

In the quiet parking lot, the Sumatran black Land Rover was hidden in it. In the back seat, the light was dim, and it was quiet and obscure.
Lou Xi glanced to his side from the corner of his eye. Ye Xingchen lowered his head and said nothing. His black hair was scattered around his face, and his eye circles were already red from crying, making his little face look even paler and haggard.
"How are your feet?" he asked in a deep voice, reaching out to lift her calf and place it on his lap.
She hurriedly tried to hide, but he held her down with his big hand, "Don't move, I'll help you take a look."
He took off her shoes and then her socks neatly, but as soon as his fingers touched the edge of the socks, she started to shrink.
"Be patient, I have to make sure you haven't hurt any bones." He pulled off her socks, then put his four fingers together, and pressed his thumb on the inside of her ankle, aiming at the tiger's mouth, paused slightly, and then squeezed hard.
The movement made her suddenly excited.
"It hurts?"
Ye Xingchen shook his head in denial, but his eyes became hot again.
"No bones were hurt, let's apply ice first." Lou Xi opened the small refrigerator in the car, took out ice cubes from it, wrapped it in a towel, and applied ice for her.
Ye Xingchen shivered again, and a bone-chilling coldness hit him. Lou Xi raised his head slightly, and his dark eyes saw her biting her lips.
"What about this? Is it better?" His other hand suddenly held the sole of her foot, and the skin touched each other. The heat from his palm was transferred to her, making her feel no longer so cold, and even...a little warm.
There is a kind of warmth that does not require much modification. It only requires a small movement or even words to make you feel warm.
For a moment, the two people in the carriage were silent, and in the air they could only hear each other's almost inaudible breathing, breathing together, rising and falling together.
For the first time in her life, Ye Xingchen blushed just listening to someone's breathing so quietly, and her heartbeat suddenly accelerated. The pounding sounds made her almost unbearable, and she quickly moved away.
He held up his hands and stammered, "I, I can just do it myself."
Lou Xi frowned almost invisible, and returned to the driver's seat in silence. The car passed by in the night wind, and he sang this on the stereo that he turned on casually -
Like a rose in the wilderness with its proud stamens
