She was almost burned by this pair of eyes. That heat flowed through her blood and reached her left chest. Her heart immediately started thumping. If it wasn't for the heavy rain outside, she would be able to hear her own heartbeat at such a close distance.
If he heard it, that would be awkward.
She couldn't help but shift her gaze away, intending to let go of his arm and stand up.
"Are you pretending to be drunk?"
She asked in a bad mood. It wasn't as if he didn't have a record. Last time, he pretended to be drugged to deceive her. This time, he must be teasing her again, causing her to seriously think of several plans to drag him down. Thinking of this, the shyness from earlier immediately turned into slight annoyance, and the fire in her instantly rose several levels.
Xiao Hou's arm exerted a little force, and her waist that had just straightened bent down once again. They were even closer to each other, as if her entire body was in his embrace.
This kind of ambiguous position made her instantly mature like a crayfish.
"Little rascal."
He called out softly, rubbing their ears and temples together, with a gentle and intimate address between lovers.
The fire that was rising was blown back in an instant.
Pang Zhijing felt that her heart was about to melt from his voice. It couldn't be helped. She had never had any resistance towards pleasant voices because she was a genuine voice and face fetish.
But when she came back to her senses, her face was gloomy. What kind of address was Little Rascal? She felt as if she had fallen from heaven into a quagmire.
She harrumphed and said, "Why are you calling me!"
Her misty eyes suddenly sharpened, and her tone became solemn and serious.
"You're not allowed to go near You Qingxi!"
"Ah?"
"You're not allowed to talk to her!"
"…"
"You're not allowed to rekindle old feelings!"
"…"
After saying no three times in a row, Xiao Hou, who had revealed his overbearing nature after getting drunk, finally tilted his head and gave himself to her. He closed his eyes, and there was still a smile on his lips, looking very happy.
However, Pang Zhijing was currently in a daze.
What the hell, what was going on!
"Hey, hey, hey, explain yourself!"
She really wanted to wake him up, but he had already fallen asleep. No matter how she shook him, there was no reaction.
"I really want to throw you here!" She muttered hatefully.
But in the end, she still couldn't bear it and reluctantly helped him up and sent him into the room.
He was too tall, and the man's skeleton was placed there. She couldn't even support him, but there was a breath of air in her heart that supported her.
She grumbled as she walked.
"I can't wait to get as far away from that You Qingxi. Who knows if he'll rush over and kill me!"
"He's talking to me, but I don't care! I'd rather talk to the wall than waste my saliva on him! "
"Rekindling old feelings my ass! The original owner of this body must have been blind to fall in love with such a sanctimonious but vicious person! "
"…"
She muttered to herself. She didn't even realize that every word she said was an explanation and a guarantee to him. It was as if she was a girlfriend declaring her loyalty to her boyfriend.
It was a short distance, but it took a lot of effort to half carry and half drag him into the room.
As soon as she put him down, she collapsed onto the couch in exhaustion.
"That's too much. In the future, when I'm around, I'll definitely not allow you to drink. If you insist on drinking, then I'll hide far away and see what you can do!"
She didn't dare to threaten him face to face, but now she could properly vent.
It was a pity that she really didn't have any strength. She could only rest for a while and continue later.
The fierce wind outside had lessened quite a bit, but with the heavy rain pouring down, the stuffy air was immediately swept away and there was a bit more coolness. It was a pity that the sound was too loud. When it fell on the tiles, it made a crackling sound. They both had to rely on shouting to speak, but for some reason, it gave people an incomparably peaceful feeling.
Away from the imperial court, away from the struggle, away from the plots and plots, everything seemed to be as ordinary as the days of a commoner's family.
She looked at the house. Although it was very old and very old, it still stood tall in this kind of heavy rain.
Sometimes, she felt that life didn't need to be grand and magnificent, didn't need to eat exotic delicacies, and didn't need silk and satin. As long as there was a house that could shelter you from the wind and rain, and the person you liked lying next to you, you could sit and watch the flowers bloom and wither, and the clouds roll and unfold.
She turned over and happened to be facing him.
His light eyebrows were like autumn water, and his deep eyes like the sea were covered. His long and curly eyelashes were clearly visible, making people feel that his entire appearance was exquisite. The ends of his eyes were deep and long, and the ends were slightly curved. When she closed her eyes, she realized that he had such a charming side.
It was just that he always had a fake smile on his face, so the beautiful ends of his eyes were not revealed.
When they quietly faced each other, she couldn't help but imagine his usual appearance on his face.
When he smiled, he was confident and elegant. When he was deep in thought, he was as gentle as jade. When he was angry, his eyes were sharp.
She couldn't help but feel a little wronged. Why was he so gentle to others, but sometimes he was angry with her, sometimes he criticized her, and sometimes he was cold and ignored her? She didn't provoke him, but he always found trouble with her.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but reach out and poke his face as punishment. She had wanted to do this for a long time.
But when she poked him for the first time, wow, it was so soft!
Continue, continue — —
Poke, poke, poke — —
Then, the person in deep sleep seemed to be disturbed. He casually grabbed her naughty finger and wrapped her entire hand in his palm. He frowned slightly and muttered, "Stop it."
From his tone, it seemed like he knew that she was the one who was causing trouble!
She immediately put away her thoughts and didn't dare to tease him anymore. Who knew if he would remember when he woke up tomorrow?
There was nothing to do, and there was only one room. Fortunately, he was asleep, so she could find a random corner to sleep for the night. Anyway, she wasn't a real princess and wasn't that delicate.
The cool breeze from outside blew in, bringing with it moisture. Her sleepiness was blown away quite a bit, and unfortunately, she became more and more awake.
She thought back to the fruit wine she drank before. It seemed to have the effect of nourishing and beautifying her. She felt warm and comfortable now.
When there were no distractions in her mind, she would start to think about life. This was her habit.
Her gaze fell on Xiao Hou, and the words that Granny Wang said to her today echoed in her ears.
She imagined herself when she was six years old. She was being pampered by her parents and acting like a tyrant in the neighborhood. Parents would often bring their children to complain about her. Her parents would always harshly criticize her in front of outsiders, but after they left, they would call her "darling" and "darling".
So she had a stark contrast. She felt more and more that he didn't have a happy childhood. There was only danger and hunger.
The image of a five or six-year-old child wearing thin clothes, curled up in a corner and looking outside at the university floated in front of her. Her eyes couldn't help but moisten.
In the end, she couldn't help but reach out and hug him. She wished that when you were six years old, she could accompany you by your side, give you warmth, and not show such a sad and lonely gaze.
There were so many helpless things in life. If she could be a step earlier, or a step later, would it be better?
