That was the first time Shi Sheng had heard of her name.
After a while, she said, "My name doesn't have that many meanings. It means that I'm as lowly as a weed."
The little girl's eyes widened. Apparently, she also remembered that the usage of the word 'Sheng' in the galaxy was completely different from the last era. She opened her mouth but did not say anything for a long time.
Her brother liked to study ancient culture very much. Under the influence of his eyes and ears, she also knew a lot. She often saw the word 'Music of the Four Seas' in her brother's study, so it left a deep impression on her.
The little girl scratched her head. "My name is Xia Chu. Because I was born in Chu Xia, it's Xia Chu in reverse …"
"You're from the Xia family?" Shi Sheng asked calmly. "Is your brother Xia Lin?"
"Yes." The little girl was not prepared at all. "Do you know my brother?"
"No." How could she know a genius like Xia Lin? When he became famous, she was still growing up under the protection of Shi Mu and Lu Ziyue. But then she added, "I've heard of him."
Xia Chu was really too innocent. Looking at her was like looking at Shi Le. If they did not have these things, Shi Le would also be so innocent and kind and grow up without worries.
Unfortunately …
Xia Chu let Shi Sheng recuperate in the warehouse. Occasionally, someone would come to the warehouse to take something, so she carefully hid her. Every time, she was the one who was the most nervous.
Xia Chu sat cross-legged beside Shi Sheng. The faint light of the emergency light shone on her sharp chin. "You're Shi Sheng. Are you from the Shi family?"
The surnames of the big families were special. Very few ordinary people would use this surname. Even if they did, it could be traced back to the main family.
"You can say that." Shi Sheng's spirit was much better. Perhaps it was because Xia Chu did not have the aura that she hated, her attitude towards her was much better.
"My brother said that the Shi family …" Xia Chu paused and laughed embarrassedly. She changed the topic. "Then why did you appear on my brother's warship? And you're so … "Embarrassed.
Shi Sheng glanced at her and said lightly, "Running for my life."
Xia Chu's eyes widened slightly. It was probably the first time she heard the word 'running for her life'.
"What did your brother say about the Shi family?"
"No, no, no, nothing." Xia Chu waved her hand.
Shi Sheng looked at Xia Chu. Under his gaze, Xia Chu was a little scared. She lowered her head and said weakly, "My brother said that if the Shi family continues to let the current head of the family take over, it will be over sooner or later."
"That's not what my brother said." Xia Chu raised her head again. "My brother heard it from the elders in the clan. I accidentally overheard it."
"That's right." Shi Sheng's gaze fell on the emergency lights. The light gathered in her pupils, reflecting the coldness in her eyes.
Xia Chu stared at her blankly.
She didn't know what she was thinking, but her heart ached for Shi Sheng even more.
Xia Chu was different from Shi Yu. When Shi Yu got close to her, there was always a faintly discernible emotion. She could feel that he was not sincere. Perhaps it was sympathy, or perhaps it had other motives, but she didn't need any of those.
However, Xia Chu was different. She did not have any ulterior motives when she approached him. She only approached him because she was in the warehouse and he did not want her to be alone in the dark.
In the end, they were still discovered. Shi Sheng's injury was half healed. When he was discovered, he subconsciously wanted to hit them.
However, Xia Chu held his hand and looked up at the person who discovered them. "I want to see my brother."
The other party obviously knew Xia Chu and was a little embarrassed. "Miss, you can't let an unknown person be with you."
Xia Chu held his hand even tighter. "Then lock me up too."
"This …"
In the end, Xia Chu was still taken away. When Xia Chu was taken away, she told Shi Sheng to wait for her and that she would find her brother to save her.
For some reason, Shi Sheng did not resist and was locked up in the interrogation room on the warship.
Compared to the prison cell, the environment in the interrogation room was much better. Shi Sheng sat quietly on the chair with his head lowered and did not speak.
"Brother, brother …" Outside the interrogation room, Xia Chu hugged Xia Lin's waist and acted coquettishly. "She's really not a bad person. She's my friend. I asked her to accompany me."
Xia Lin held his sister helplessly. "This is a warship. There are military rules."
"But …" Xia Chu glanced at the interrogation room and pursed her lips. "Brother, she's really my friend. She's not a spy. Don't you even believe me?"
Xia Lin: "…"
Shi Sheng was locked up for a day. In the end, Xia Lin resisted the pressure and got him out.
"Are you from the Shi family?" This was the first sentence Xia Lin said when he saw him.
Shi Sheng looked up at him and did not deny or admit it.
Xia Lin's eyes darkened. He left with Shi Sheng and Xia Chu. When there was no one around, he said, "Those people who were loitering outside the warship were looking for you, right? I don't care what grudges you have with the Shi family, but I hope you don't involve my Xiao Chu. "
"I'll leave tomorrow."
"Brother!" Xia Chu widened her eyes. "How can you say that?"
"Xiao Chu!" Xia Lin's face darkened. "I'll deal with you when we get back. You'll leave tomorrow. I'll treat it as if you never came."
Xia Lin looked angry. Xia Chu was a little scared. She pursed her lips and looked at Xia Lin, trying to persuade him with her pitiful eyes. However, Xia Lin did not buy it.
"Thank you." Shi Sheng thanked him sincerely.
Xia Lin's expression softened. He patted Xia Chu's head. "Take him to his room. Don't come out without my permission!"
Xia Chu stuck her tongue out at Xia Lin and muttered something. Xia Lin helplessly wanted to hit Xia Chu. Xia Chu dragged Shi Sheng and ran away.
After running for a distance, she turned back and made a face at Xia Lin.
Xia Chu took Shi Sheng to the room Xia Lin had arranged for her. She pressed Shi Sheng onto the bed. "Don't be afraid. My brother is stubborn but soft-hearted. I'll beg him when he's free. My brother loves me the most. He'll definitely agree."
"Have you ever thought …" Shi Sheng opened his mouth.
"What?"
Shi Sheng looked at the little girl in front of him. "Maybe I'm a bad person."
"How could that be?" Xia Chu shook her head and leaned closer to Shi Sheng. She smiled and said, "Do you think I'm gullible? I know you wanted to kill me at first, but I was really scared in that place. I wasn't scared because you were with me. Now, I can feel that you're not a bad person. "
Shi Sheng was silent. What did she mean by he thought she was gullible? He was gullible to begin with.
Xia Chu raised her head proudly. "I have a special ability."
"It's useless," Shi Sheng said mercilessly.
Xia Chu's face fell. "Why are you like this? My special ability is very useful. Just like now, I know you don't have any bad intentions … Although it's not very effective most of the time, it's not wrong when it's effective."
Sensing the good and evil of others …
How could this special ability not be useless?
It was not always effective.
Human nature was fickle. One second, he might be kind to you, but the next second, he might want to kill you.
Don't use anything to measure human nature. Disappointment was greater than hope.
