Views:

Bai Ling thought about it, but he didn't know how to speak to Li He who was across the table.

And Li He on the other side, is it not a kind of torment

Li He stroked the chopsticks in his hand, looked at Bai Ling, and then looked down at his bowl full of rice, wondering if he should ask Bai Ling if he had already decided to leave. While hesitating, he had no choice but to poke the white rice in his bowl with chopsticks. As for the dishes on the table, neither of them moved a chopstick.

After contemplating for a long time, neither of them spoke. Between the entire dining table, only the bright lights kept flickering.

In the end, Li He tightened the chopsticks in his hand, and silently put down the chopsticks in his hand, as if he had made up his mind, he said, "That..."

"that… "

Before he finished speaking, Li He discovered that Bai Ling had spoken at the same time as him, and what they both said was the same...

For some reason, Bai Ling's words made Li He's heart tense, and he didn't dare to continue to say the rest.

On the other side, Bai Ling also felt his heart tense, secretly sighing that what should come will always come.

Bai Ling didn't dare to continue talking, for fear that Li He would mistakenly think that he still wanted to eat and drink here for free, and would stay here with a shameless face and not let go.

In the end, the two of them said in unison: "You...you should talk first?"

Li He: "..."

Bai Ling: "..."

The two looked at each other speechlessly, not knowing what to do...

"Ahem...let me talk first..." Bai Ling took the lead in breaking this awkward silence, not letting this weird atmosphere continue

.

"Okay... okay, let's talk first..." Li He silently picked up the chopsticks again, and struggled in his hands.

Bai Ling looked at Li He, and said seriously: "Brother Li He, thank you for your meticulous care during this time, and for saving your life. Bai Ling, I will definitely repay Brother Li He for your great kindness in the future. Virtue." Said, Bai Ling bowed to Li He very solemnly, very grateful. Then he continued: "During this period of time, I have been living here with Brother Li He, and it is really bothering me. I have caused Brother Li He a lot of trouble, please forgive me."

"Now, my injury is almost healed. I'm really embarrassed to stay here any longer and let Brother Li He take care of me."

When Bai Ling said these words, he kept looking at Li He, trying to find out what Li He was really thinking.

It's a pity that Li He didn't raise his head from the beginning to the end, but lowered his head silently, looking at the rice in his bowl, without saying a word. It took a long time before Li He raised his head silently, looked at Bai Ling and said, "Xiao Bai, can you not leave?"

Seeing Li He's appearance, Bai Ling's heart trembled, and he sat there blankly, not knowing how to reply to him.

On the other hand, Li He's eyes were slightly red at the moment, and his voice was still filled with a hint of sadness.

"Xiaobai, can you not go?"

Li He repeated what he said just now, his voice still trembling unconfidently.

Li He didn't know if he could really keep Bai Ling, nor did he know what Bai Ling was thinking. But he knew that if he let Bai Ling go like this, he might regret it for the rest of his life.

Not only because he has no friends, nor any relatives, he has always been alone. But when he saw Bai Ling for the first time, his heart beat involuntarily along with Bai Ling.

Even he himself didn't understand why his liking for Bai Ling was so strong, so strong that he wished he could hold Bai Ling in his arms all the time, as if he wouldn't let go.

The feeling of wanting to shield him from the wind and rain silently, and spend his entire life just to be with him alone, is so surging and hard to restrain.

Seeing Li He's sincere appearance, Bai Ling was slightly moved, and already wanted to promise him.

It's just... Bai Ling was still a little worried, would Li He just talk to him politely, and didn't really want to keep him

Bai Ling hesitated for a while, but still said, "Do you really want me to stay?"

"Of course!!" Li He replied without hesitation: "Not only that, I also hope that you can live forever, and don't leave when you recover from your injury... And..."

"And what?"

Li He was a little embarrassed and said: "And... I still want to recognize you as my younger brother... I don't know what you think..."

"this… … "

For some reason, hearing what Li He said to him at this time, Bai Ling's heart suddenly touched.

That's right, if his elder brother and second elder brother hadn't died, would he be like Li He now, who could protect him under his body and make him much loved

The trace of sadness in his heart was wiped away by Bai Ling in an instant.

His eldest brother and second brother had sacrificed themselves a long time ago to protect him. The current him is just a mortal recovering from a serious illness, without any abilities. If you are thinking about the past, you are just asking for trouble.

But now, Bai Ling really wants to agree to Li He's request.

"Okay, from now on, you will be my big brother!"

"Really?" This time, it was Li He's turn to be a little unbelievable. "Xiaobai, are you really willing to be my younger brother? Don't you think I have no relatives and no reason, and live a very poor life?"

Bai Ling couldn't help laughing...

"Well, then do you dislike me for being here with you all the time, eating and drinking, and not knowing how to do anything?"

"Pfft... hahaha..."

This time, it was Li He's turn to laugh.

"Little Bai, you eat so little every day, no matter how much you eat, I can support you~"

Having said that, Li He is actually a little guilty. After all, in Li He's eyes, Bai Ling is a rich man no matter what. If he dislikes this kind of ordinary food and wants to eat those delicacies from mountains and seas, Li He really has no choice.

However, for Bai Ling, as long as he can stay here with peace of mind and repay Li He's kindness in the future, that's enough. As for what to eat and where to live, Bai Ling didn't particularly care about it.

After all, it still depends on the person to eat...

If you eat it with someone you like, it is naturally a simple meal, and it is also very delicious. But if it is not, even the delicacy of mountains and seas will make people feel hard to swallow.

What's more, Bai Ling has lived in the demon world for so long, and he has already hated those delicious delicacies rich in oil and water. I really like these light and delicious meals.

Bai Ling looked at the table of delicious dishes that Li He had cooked today, and suddenly felt very enlightened. It turned out that not only did Li He have no intention of driving him away, but he also hoped that he would stay forever. As for this table of good food, Li He probably misunderstood that Bai Ling didn't want to stay for a long time, so he specially practiced it for him.

For some reason, when Bai Ling looked at Li He now, he suddenly felt that he had become very cute.

The originally handsome face and wheat-colored complexion, under the illumination of the lights, looked a little alluring. Looking at Bai Ling, his mind was shaken for a moment, and his eyes became a little dazed.

When he came back to his senses again, Li He had already smiled at him.

A warm smile, under the light of flickering lights, seems to be easier to capture people's hearts and make people feel good.

Bai Ling shook his head with a smile, and said to Li He: "Although that's the case, I'll go to the town these few days to see if there is anything I can do. It can be considered as a subsidy for the family."

"this… …"

Li He looked at Bai Ling, trying to stop him from going out to do something. But after thinking about it, Bai Ling might have made this request because he was always eating and drinking for nothing at his place and felt a little uncomfortable.

In this regard, Li He couldn't continue to force him, so he could only let him go.

"Come, come, eat, eat!"

After the two of them explained what was in their hearts, their moods improved a lot.

Especially Li He, when he knew that Bai Ling was going to stay again, his whole face was beaming with joy. He kept adding vegetables to Bai Ling's bowl, very enthusiastically.

After Bai Ling knew Li He's true inner thoughts, he also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, these days, he really likes it here. I like the golden rice fields here, and I like the green water and green mountains here. Most importantly, living with Li He gave him an inexplicably relaxed feeling.

Anyway, he is just a mortal now, and his lifespan is only a short few decades. Instead of running around and working hard, it is better to stay in this other courtyard, live this life leisurely with the elder brother he just recognized, and the beautiful nature.

During the meal, Bai Ling couldn't help but raised the corners of his mouth when he ate the live water fish that Li He had worked so hard to catch, which was very fresh and plump, and was carefully cooked.

This kind of life is very plain and ordinary, without any waves. But it is this simple and ordinary life that can truly make people realize how beautiful it is to live such a simple life.

This evening, the two had a great time eating. Even after finishing the meal, I didn't feel sleepy at all.

The two of them sat in the courtyard with two wooden benches, watching the stars and the moon. Although there is no mellow and sweet sake, you can drink two glasses quietly. But drinking a cup of slightly bitter buckwheat tea and savoring the different flavors in it is also a pleasure.

Bai Ling, who was full of food and drink, was blowing the cool night breeze and basking in the big and round moon, but he felt an unprecedented satisfaction.

The silver moonlight, like clear water, poured down from the sky and sprinkled on Bai Ling's body. It made Bai Ling's already fair face look even more beautiful.

Bai Ling's whole body was bathed in this silver brilliance, like a spotless immortal. In the eyes, the bustling galaxy is reflected in the sky, shining brightly and compellingly. In those beautiful star eyes, there are traces of stories of vicissitudes in the world, and finally returned to peace, seeing through the world of mortals.

The evening breeze at night carries a hint of refreshing coolness. Coupled with the rustling sound brought by the breeze blowing the rice, people feel sleepy without knowing it.

Bai Ling's twinkling eyes narrowed slowly, and before he knew it, he leaned towards Li He beside him, and fell asleep on Li He's shoulder.

Li He looked at Bai Ling's side face, felt the weight on his shoulders, and felt inexplicably satisfied in his heart. Perhaps, it is enough to be under the starry sky, blowing the cool breeze, and being with the people beside you.
