Sheng Weiqiao suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart!
Why is this person like this? !
Do you just turn around and forget about something you promised repeatedly? !
Or do you just treat yourself like a child and just deal with it casually? !
Does he take Chunwei seriously? !
Do you take your body seriously? !
She instinctively wanted to get up and scold Sheng Suihe for not telling the truth - but thinking of the huge gap in strength between the two, she held it back. She took a deep breath, pinched her palms hard, and after a moment of brewing her emotions, she weakly He said weakly: "Brother?"
"Huh?" Sheng Sleeping Crane, who was sitting cross-legged with his head bowed, immediately turned his head and looked over.
The purple lightning that kept cutting through the night reflected his calm face and his unfazed eyes - Sheng Weiqiao felt sour and astringent when he saw it: Yes, such a heavy wind and rain, such a loud thunder, even himself This person who was sleeping well was woken up. How could Shengshouhe, who didn't even have a quilt and was sitting at the entrance of the cave to protect her from the wind, could sleep
Holding back the moisture in her eyes, she tried to make her voice sound frightened and helpless: "Brother, can you come over and stay with me? I... I'm afraid of thunder!"
Sheng Suihe was obviously stunned. After a while, the atmosphere in the cave became a bit strange, and Sheng Weiqiao's cheeks were already red and hot in the dark. He chuckled softly: "My good girl is usually very powerful, but I didn't expect it." Are you even afraid of rain and thunder?”
"... There are many people who are afraid of thunder!" Sheng Weiqiao retorted with a complicated mood, feeling her chest tight: "I'm not afraid that you will stand at the door in the wind and rain and freeze, so I'm here to coax you to come over and cover yourself with a quilt." reason? !
"That's true. Brother Wei was also afraid of thunder when he was a child. At that time, every time there was thunder, brother Wei would hide..." Sheng Suihe said with a smile, then suddenly paused and did not continue. He got up and asked Chu Wu to change his position, and went to lie down in the corner of the cave. He walked to the stone couch, lifted up his robe and sat down. He tucked Sheng Weiqiao into the quilt and said with a smile, "Okay, brother, I'm here, be good." Don’t be afraid, girl, just go to sleep!”
Sheng Weiqiao gave way and lifted up the corner of the quilt to cover him. She was afraid that Sheng Suihe wouldn't take it and she felt embarrassed. She felt that she should quickly find a topic to talk about to divert attention, so she asked casually: "You used to do this too." Are you afraid of thunder? How old were you? Are you afraid now?"
"How old were you? You don't remember. You were still very young at that time." Sheng Suihe turned his back to the cave, his face was completely hidden in the darkness, and his expression could not be seen clearly. Only his eyes were as bright as stars, but there was no warmth. His tone was gentle and inconsistent with his eyes, "Of course I'm not afraid now."
Sheng Weiqiao quietly reached out and took his hand, and found that it was cold to the bone. He tentatively dragged it under the quilt. Seeing that he didn't resist, he simply pulled his hands under the quilt to keep warm. He continued to speak to cover up his nervousness: "Say Get up, how did you get sent to Tortoiseshell Island in the first place? After so many years, my parents have not revealed anything... I always feel that you have united to hide a lot of things from me!"
"I hid a lot of things from my dear sister." Sheng Suihe seemed to smile and actually admitted, "And my dear sister wouldn't tell you if I asked my brother - so don't think too much about it, go to sleep!"
As he spoke, he moved his fingers, as if he wanted to touch her cheek, but then he thought that his fingers were cold at the moment, and he was afraid of freezing Sheng Weiqiao, so he didn't move, and just smiled and said, "Brother, I'm already here with you, if you don't want to sleep anymore , Brother, I really want to tap your sleeping hole!"
Sheng Weiqiao was quite depressed and said: "Then you are not allowed to leave! Even if the thunderstorm stops, you are not allowed to leave! If I wake up tomorrow morning and see that you are not here, I will never finish with you!"
"Okay, okay, I won't leave." Sheng Suihe laughed out loud this time, and couldn't help but scratch the tip of her nose with a cold finger, and said with a smile, "I also said that I have grown a lot by staying with my aunt in the past two years. , but it turns out that I’m still a kid at heart, and Brother Wei looks a little more childish than the year before last, huh?”
Sheng Weiqiao opened his hand and said angrily: "You are just a kid!!!"
Her energy was incomparable to Sheng Suihe's. Even though she slept most of the night on the mattress given by Sheng Suihe, after saying a few words, she still felt sleepy coming over her like a tide. Because she was worried that Sheng Suihe's words would not be true, she deliberately tugged on the corner of his clothes before falling into a drowsy sleep.
"Chief!" What Sheng Weiqiao didn't know was that not long after she fell asleep, Gongsun Xi's figure suddenly appeared at the entrance of the cave. At this moment, Gongsun Xi was wearing a black shirt and fast boots. However, the figure half-kneeling there exuded a strong smell of blood, and his eyes were cold and uninviting, and he reported in a flat tone, "Everything is as the leader expected..."
Just before he spoke, Sheng Suihe, who had his back turned to him, stretched out his index finger and made a "silence" gesture with his head.
Then, Sheng Suihe began to untie the tie of his coat, and carefully left the clothes that Sheng Weiqiao had grabbed at the corner. He tiptoed out of the cave, still uneasy, and walked a long way in the rain before he stood still. He said: "My dear girl just fell asleep. Please be more careful in situations like this in the future and don't wake her up."
Gongsun Xi, who was following, silently looked at the lightning and thunder above his head: "..."
The conscience of heaven and earth, no matter how loud he spoke just now, it is not as loud as the thunder now, okay
If both of them were not accomplished masters of internal strength, and if it were an ordinary person, in a situation like this tonight, if he spoke at the entrance of the cave, the person sitting on the stone couch would probably not be able to hear anything!
Is this possible to disturb Sheng Weiqiao? !
Unless that spoiled young lady didn't sleep at all!
Seeing his leader solemnly telling him what to do, Gongsun Xi felt sorry for him in his heart for a while, "100% of the time he was tormented by that young lady again! Otherwise, how could the leader just stay with that young lady's bed instead of On the fifth day of the month? Are you all a partial old man like Mr. Shanda? He is just an outsider who will get married sooner or later, but he actually values more than the only male heir! Let’s see what happens to her husband after this delicate and willful eldest lady comes out of the cabinet. Will her family indulge her like this?"
Then I thought that Sheng Weiqiao was already fifteen years old, and she had a haircut ceremony in March. The focus of Sheng Lanci and his wife this year was to find a husband for their daughter. The loyal subordinates felt that they had finally seen the light: this annoying eldest lady was in Sheng I can't stay home much longer! ! !
I don’t believe that after she left the cabinet, she would often go back to her parents’ house to torment her own leader!
Thinking that Sheng Weiqiao would soon leave the Sheng family and would no longer be able to compete with his leader for favor all day long, although there were still dark clouds overhead and thunderous thunder, Gongsun Xi felt indescribably refreshed and looked forward to the day Sheng Weiqiao got married. !
Sheng Suihe didn't know what he was thinking. Seeing that he remained silent, he thought that this always loyal subordinate had silently written down his instructions, so he got down to business: "How is the situation now?"
"Report to the leader: Lord Gongsun Hai was indeed attacked on the way to check the situation at the mouth of the valley. Without the arrangements of the leader, it would have been a near-death situation!" Gongsun Xi heard the words and hurriedly calmed down, returned to his usual capable and calm self, and said in a deep voice , "Now the island is in chaos, and there are rumors going up and down that the young sea master is dissatisfied with the sea master's emphasis on the leader, and intends to kill his father and usurp the throne. Some people even stormed the dock in order to seize the ship and go to sea... I don't know what to do next?"
Sheng Suihe said happily: "The dock is guarded by the rebuilt Wuyi Battalion. If someone dares to seize the ship, they don't know what to do?!"
There is currently no leader in the Wuyi Camp. The nominal leader is still Sheng Sleeping He - of course not many people know who Sheng Sleeping He is at this moment - and those who train the new recruits on Sheng Sleeping He's place are all the backbones brought out by Sheng Sleeping He hand in hand. So even though he, the leader, had been studying at Sheng Mansion for two years, he was still unambiguous in commanding the Gongsun family.
At this moment, Gongsun Xi suddenly became awe-inspiring when he heard the words, and straightened his already straight spine even further: "Those who attacked the dock have been killed on the spot by the Wuyi Battalion!"
After giving such a report in a deep voice and quickly, he added in a low voice with some hesitation, "But the island is surrounded by the sea. Although big ships cannot go there, small boats such as sampans can go there, in the dark. We are short of manpower, so some people will definitely escape..."
"By sampan?" Sheng Suihe looked up at the thunderclouds above his head and sneered, "In this kind of weather and at this time, even the big and small ships dare not go out to sea! If they can escape by sampan, how can they survive? If something goes wrong, with this kind of luck, will we end up like this?!"
However, having said that, Sheng Suihe still cautiously ordered, "After the wind and waves calm down, send the building boat out for a patrol. If there are any fish that slip through the net, they will be executed on the spot. No one can be spared!"
Gongsun happily agreed, hesitated for a while, and then asked: "Master Shaohai...?"
"After all, it's my eldest brother's bloodline. If you can keep it, keep it." Sheng Suihe waved his hand carelessly. His face remained beautiful in the wind and rain, but he didn't have the gentleness and indulgence he had just before Sheng Weiqiao in the cave. His eyebrows were full of It was as cold as frost and snow, and there was a hint of anger in Xing's eyes. He said calmly, "But our manpower is still the most important thing. If we really can't save it, let it go. The eldest brothers on the left and right are still young and will never have an heir!"
Gongsun Xi agreed again. Seeing that he had no other instructions, he bowed and left quietly, disappearing into the night in a moment.
After Sheng Sleeping Crane returned to the cave, he immediately used his internal energy to dry the wet robe quickly, and then slowly walked to the stone couch - the girl was sleeping soundly because of fatigue, but even so, she dragged him to take off his clothes. The fingers of the outer shirt that came off were still very tight.
He tried to pull, but it didn't work. Instead, Sheng Weiqiao pulled in alertly, as if to wake up.
Sheng Suihe laughed dumbly, stretched out his hand that had just recovered its body temperature due to its inner strength, and gently rubbed her head.
This action did not stimulate Sheng Weiqiao, but instead rubbed it against his palm - the touch of the girl's smooth and tender skin rubbing against the thin calluses of his palm, and her unprepared instinctive trust, made Sheng Suihe feel complicated.
He knew that Sheng Weiqiao's "fear of thunder" was just an excuse, because his years of licking blood with a knife tip had already made him develop the habit of sleeping lightly and living alone.
Even the cave originally appeared not because he wanted to accompany Chu Wu, but because his house on the island was not safe enough. In order to avoid dying in his sleep, he made a temporary residence within the scope of Chu Wu's activities - here not only Chu Wu is a helper, but also various traps can be set up according to local conditions to kill the endless enemies or foes.
Later, as he became more mature and no longer needed to hide in the valley, he dismantled most of the traps outside and used this cave as a place to stay in his spare time.
It's hard to change a person's nature, and even if the person living in the same room with him is a weak woman whom he knows very well, he is still instinctively wary.
That's why when Sheng Weiqiao was woken up just now, his breathing rhythm changed. He noticed it and woke up immediately!
Although the girl later tried to show fear when she asked for help, in the eyes of someone who had experienced Sheng Suihe's experience, it was full of flaws - he didn't even need to observe the girl's words and expressions, just by listening to the changes in the girl's breathing, he knew that she was afraid of thunder. There is no fear at all. For this reason, it is nothing more than calling him over to cover him with the quilt.
Sheng Suihe has always known that this sister is soft-hearted and easy to coax, but things in the past are different from tonight's bedding: Frankly speaking, Sheng Weiqiao's kindness in the past was mostly based on the fact that she had a pair of capable parents who loved her. Basically, all she has to do is forgive and plead. To put it bluntly, the price of those kindnesses comes from Sheng Lanci and his wife, from Mrs. Sheng, from the Sheng family, and Sheng Weiqiao's own contribution is actually very small;
But tonight's bedding is really related to Sheng Weiqiao's own interests.
Whether it was her determination to completely give up the quilt to him before, or her decision to find an excuse to share the quilt with him now, this girl was really afraid that he would be frozen.
Even if the cost is to freeze herself, or to violate the etiquette and integrity she has always recognized, risking her reputation.
Sheng Suihe unexpectedly remembered the incident a few years ago - the brother and sister he once joked about to Sheng Weiqiao: the cowardly brother survived by betraying his sister, but after being rescued, he was forced to die in order to hide his despicableness. The sister who sacrificed for him...
The other people on Tortoiseshell Island, including Gongsun Su, who had reminded him "you will regret it" when he released the siblings at his request, may have long forgotten about this matter.
After all, the most indispensable thing in the pirate den is all kinds of tragedies.
No one knows what this incident means to Sheng Sleeping Crane.
