After dinner, Xiao Chengyi saw that Xiao Jue had no intention of leaving.
He asked: "Aren't you going back yet? There is no place for you to live here. Go back early. The government still needs you to guard it."
Xiao Jue said solemnly: "Can't I just drink some tea before leaving?"
He drank slowly with a cup of tea, his eyes glancing towards the kitchen from time to time.
Su Luo was cleaning up in the kitchen after dinner and never came out. He was too embarrassed to look for her.
Xiao Chengyi said seriously: "Luoluo is a good girl. I promised Mr. Su to find a good husband for her. What do you think of Chu Liancheng?"
Xiao Jue was furious: "I see that he doesn't have that interest in Miss Su."
Xiao Chengyi said: "Maybe it's because we haven't known each other for a long time. Maybe more contact will help..."
Before he could finish his words, there was a bang.
Xiao Jue slammed the teacup on the stone table, stood up and said, "I'm going back first."
If the conversation continued, he couldn't help but want to fight Xiao Chengyi.
Xiao Jue walked out of the door full of anger, and heard Luo Luo's voice from behind: "Brother Xiao, wait a moment."
He stopped and turned around to see Su Luo running over carrying a food box.
Xiao Jue asked: "Why did you come out?"
Su Luo handed the food box to him and said, "I saw that you didn't eat much just now. I was afraid that you would be hungry at night, so I made some pastries for you. You can take it back."
Xiao Jue's heart moved when he heard this, and he said: "You are helping me make pastries in the kitchen?"
Su Luo nodded: "Yes."
She handed him the food box and said, "Although the case is important, don't forget to eat."
"Thanks."
Xiao Jue took the food box and felt as if his heart was filled with something.
He thought again about Xiao Chengyi's decision to choose a husband for Su Luo, and his mood suddenly became a little worse.
Seeing that his face was not very good, Su Luo asked with concern: "Brother Xiao, what's wrong with you? But what's wrong with you?"
She held Xiao Jue's arm and helped him feel his pulse.
The anger was still strong at noon, but now it has become stagnation of heart energy again.
She asked: "Brother Xiao, are you unhappy with something? If so, don't hold it back, you must say it."
Xiao Jue looked at her holding his little hand, feeling soft in his heart and having an indescribable feeling.
He asked: "Do you like Chu Liancheng?"
"ah?"
Su Luo was stunned by his question. She blinked: "Mr. Chu? I have never spoken to him."
Xiao Jue raised his eyebrows and felt a little happy. He said: "You are simple-minded. You have to be careful and don't just believe what others say. Do you understand?"
"oh."
Su Luo responded obediently.
Xiao Jue reached out and touched her head and said, "Go back quickly?"
Su Luo was startled, her cheeks turned red and she hurriedly turned around and ran back to the yard.
When Xiao Jue saw her entering, he left with the food box.
While walking on the road, he kept thinking about Su Luo. From the first time he saw this girl, he felt that she was different from ordinary girls.
Accustomed to seeing the same old ladies in Beijing, Luoluo is like a stream in the mountains, clear, pure, without any impurities.
And he wanted to protect her and protect her innocence from being contaminated by anything.
Just as he was thinking about it, a sudden sound of wind came rushing towards him. Xiao Jue reacted quickly and dodged.
An arrow fell to the ground grazing his sleeve.
Upon seeing this, the secret guard flew out, protected Xiao Jue and said, "Master, there is an ambush."
Xiao Jue held the food box and looked around with cold eyes.
This is the official road into the city, with woods on both sides. It's dark now, so it's perfect for an ambush.
