"My lord, why did you find her so quickly?" Yi Xiaolan murmured, "Impossible... obviously there are no traces left..."
"How do I know this?" Luo He became a little impatient, and said, "The young master has always been extremely intelligent, and he was fascinated by Lu Xiaoshu, so he naturally paid special attention to her affairs, so it's not surprising to find her." !"
Yi Xiaolan only felt that these words were harsh, and her heart was sour when she heard them, so she turned her face away.
What an idiot! At this time, I am still daydreaming and eating irrelevant jealousy! Luo He looked at it coldly and sneered in his heart.
He was not in the mood to entangle with her any longer, and sent Yi Xiaolan away after presuming that something happened in a few words.
Yi Xiaolan had no choice but to get on the horse and walk home slowly.
At this time, Zhou Shizhi and Lu Xiaoshu were in a small cave on the cliff, and the mountain wind outside was howling and roaring. In the cave, Zhou Shizhi hugged Lu Xiaoshu tightly, using his own body temperature to touch the water little by little. to warm her up.
When falling from the cliff, it happened to be blocked by a tree. Zhou Shizhi reacted very quickly and grabbed it immediately. Seeing a recessed place not far away, he jumped over with Lu Xiaoshu on his arms. Then came over and took Lu Xiaoshu's big red cloak hanging on the tree.
At this moment, he didn't think about anything, his only thought was that he didn't want her to die, as long as he wanted her to live, he definitely wanted her to live!
Gradually, her limbs warmed up, and the pulse on her wrist began to beat gradually. The joy in Zhou Shizhi's heart also rose little by little, and a bright look appeared between his brows and eyes little by little.
In the middle of the night, the person in his arms suddenly moved slightly, and let out a low moan.
Zhou Shizhi almost jumped up, only felt that the slight sound was like hearing the sound of nature, he stretched out two fingers to probe her nose, quickly shook the person in his arms and said happily: "Xiao Shu! Xiao Shu! Wake up! Wake up!"
Lu Xiaoshu's consciousness was still in a half-comatose half-awake state, and he heard a faint voice calling to him, which was familiar and far away.
She wanted to wake up, but she couldn't open her eyelids, and she felt like she was falling heavily, as if she was about to fall into a bottomless dark abyss.
"Xiaoshu! Xiaoshu!" The voice became clearer and clearer, as if it was ringing in my ears, and there was a warm breath brushing over my face, as well as my cheeks, nose, and forehead. The warm touch pulled her consciousness back a little.
She finally moved slightly again, feeling that her limbs and body could move again, Lu Xiaoshu felt a burst of excitement and ecstasy.
"Where is this?" She asked in a low voice, her eyes still closed.
"Xiao Shu, you're awake!" Zhou Shizhi was both surprised and happy, hugging her tightly in his arms, a little incoherent, "Xiao Shu, don't worry, we will definitely go out, we will definitely be able to go out when the sun rises!"
"No wonder it's so dark!" Lu Xiaoshu smiled and said, "Are you Brother Zhou?"
"It's me," Zhou Shizhi's heart was agitated, he couldn't help lowering his head and kissed her lightly on the forehead, and said with distress and pity: "I'm sorry, I'm the one who caused you trouble!"
Lu Xiaoshu was stunned, the boundless coldness and boundless fear and despair hit like a tide in an instant, she suddenly grabbed Zhou Shizhi's clothes tightly and shrank into his arms, "Wow" burst into tears .
"Xiao Shu! Xiao Shu!" Zhou Shizhi was a little at a loss for a while, and immediately hugged her tightly and kept patting her: "It's okay Xiaoshu, it's okay! Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."
Lu Xiaoshu whimpered intermittently while crying: "I'm not dead, am I not dead? I'm really not dead, I'm still alive..."
Zhou Shizhi was heartbroken when he heard it, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, you are not dead, you will live a long life, Brother Zhou will accompany you! It's over, don't be afraid!"
Zhou Shizhi kept comforting him, how could Lu Xiaoshu really calm down for a while? After sobbing and sobbing for a long time, the mood gradually calmed down.
Zhou Shizhi held her in a comfortable position and leaned against his arms, wrapping the cloak tightly. Lu Xiaoshu asked in a low voice: "Where are we? Why is it so dark? There's such a loud noise!"
Zhou Shizhi smiled wryly, and said: "We fell off the cliff under the plot of a traitor, and we are now in a small cave on the cliff. But don't worry, I will find a way when the sun rises."
"En!" Lu Xiaoshu nodded, feeling peaceful in her heart, as if she didn't worry about anything with him by her side.
The light was very dim in the dark night, but it wasn't impossible to see clearly. Zhou Shizhi could clearly see the bright and comfortable smile on her little face through the extremely dim light. He couldn't help feeling warm in his heart.
Seeing her swollen cheeks, her good mood suddenly deteriorated again, she raised her hand to gently caress her, and said softly, "Does it hurt?"
Lu Xiaoshu shook his head, "It doesn't hurt anymore." Then he curled his lips and said, "She beat me with a whip and kicked me, her body also hurt before."
"Who did it? I won't let him go! It's Yi Xiaolan, right?" Zhou Shizhi gritted his teeth.
"Who else but her!" Lu Xiaoshu curled his lips, the more he thought about it, the more wronged he became, he couldn't help but whispered the matter to Zhou Shizhi, and couldn't help scolding her when he got angry.
Zhou Shizhi became more and more annoyed, and said bitterly: "I knew that bitch was uneasy and kind! I thought she was a pure-hearted woman before, but I didn't expect her to be so vicious!"
Lu Xiaoshu then said resentfully: "Don't blame him so much, they are all because of you, they just treat me viciously! If it wasn't because of you, I wouldn't suffer this kind of crime..."
Hearing these words, Zhou Shizhi's heart almost softened, his arms that hugged Lu Xiaoshu tightened, his heart became hot, and for a while, he felt that all the words of apology were so weak and unable to express what he was thinking at the moment. .
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" He simply lowered his head and kissed her cheek, nose and forehead repeatedly.
Lu Xiaoshu just felt a "buzz" in his head, and he was stunned!
If she can't feel his strong feelings, then he must be a fool or an idiot. His hugs and kisses are filled with infinite love, pity and guilt, and the sincerity of wanting to dig out his heart and offer it to her.
Lu Xiaoshu suddenly felt that his whole body had no strength, and his whole body was hazy.
"Zhou, Zhou—Brother!" After a while, Lu Xiaoshu struggled in his arms, and subconsciously turned his head to the side to hide.
"Xiao Shu!" Zhou Shizhi didn't allow her to dodge any more, but he held her tighter in his arms, and said in a low voice, "I like you. When we were in Maple Leaf Village, I just—, I originally thought that Maple Leaf Village would say goodbye to you." We never met again after that, and I am a person covered in blood and debts, even if I don’t want to let you go, I still have to let you go! But I never thought that God would send you to me again and again, Xiao Shu, marry me, okay? Okay? I will treat you well for the rest of my life!"
Zhou Shizhi's voice was trembling, and his face was a little red. He had never said such words, and he never thought that one day such words would come out of his own mouth.
After the tragedy in his own family, his only purpose of living was to seek innocence for his father and brother who died unjustly, avenge them and sacrifice to their spirits in heaven. All strategies, he must make himself survive and become strong.
As for the others, it was never in his consideration. He never even thought about marrying a wife.
Until, I met her.
Lu Xiaoshu's heart felt hot, his face also felt hot, his heart felt a little sour, and there was a sweet feeling mixed with the sourness. If it wasn't for him, she would have died countless times. In this world, how many people could do this for her
Her heart was sour, tears overflowed from her eyes, and slowly flowed down her cheeks.
"Xiaoshu, Xiaoshu! Don't cry, don't cry!" Zhou Shizhi's fingertips touched the warmth of her cheeks, startled, and said at a loss: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I won't say anything, I won't say anything anymore Can't you! Just pretend I didn't say anything—"
Who would have thought it would be fine if he didn't say that, once he said this, Lu Xiaoshu, who was crying silently, sobbed and said intermittently: "You, you mean, just now, you lied to me, coaxed me For play?"
"I—" Zhou Shizhi was dumbfounded, and after a moment of silence, he said sullenly: "Of course not, it's my truth..." He is also a shrewd, calm and steady person, otherwise someone in Qilin Villa would have jumped out to test it instead of everyone They are all deliberately keeping on the sidelines. But only when he met her, only in front of her, he often felt powerless and didn't know what to do with her!
Lu Xiaoshu sniffed "Oh" and said, "You really want to marry me? Didn't you just talk about it on the spur of the moment?"
"Xiao Shu!" Zhou Shizhi couldn't laugh or cry, and sighed, "How can such a thing be joked? I really want to marry you."
Lu Xiaoshu said, "But, I have a bad temper."
"Who said that? I just like your temper. Frank, straightforward, clear, and true are the best in my eyes!"
"I, I am still very domineering and narrow-minded. My man can only have me as a woman, even if I have a big reason to accept others, I can't even act on the spot! Otherwise, just wait!"
Zhou Shizhi couldn't help smiling when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Of course, it's because you care about me and like me! After going through so many things, I just want to find a wife who can stand by my side, a confidant who can understand me, Why would you want another woman?"
"Also, our identities are very different—"
"You're right!" Zhou Shizhi interrupted her without waiting for her to finish, and said with a wry smile, "You are a good citizen, and I am a prisoner of the imperial court. Our identities are indeed very different! Alas, Xiao Shu, you Is this trying to despise me!"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Lu Xiaoshu told him to make a "puchi" smile, couldn't help but thumped his chest, and said with a small mouth: "You clearly know that I don't mean it! Now you can't make it public Identity, but that identity is clearly there, and I believe that with your ability and the strength of Qilin Villa, your family will be punished sooner or later, and you will recover your identity sooner or later. At that time—”
