"I didn't refuse... to get married." Xu Yan's voice became a little lower under Li Xin's gaze.
Li Xin lowered her eyelashes and sat on the sofa with her hands resting on her cheeks, staring at the colorful fruit bowl on the table without speaking.
Her silence obviously made Xu Yan on the opposite side a little uneasy. It was manifested in that although he couldn't move with the back of his hand behind him, the two long legs stretched out under the table began to move slightly.
"Boom-"
The table was kicked with a loud thud, the whole fruit bowl was overturned, and the apples and peaches rolled to the ground.
Li Xin: "..."
She lifted her face, and looked at him with beautifully shaped almond eyes from under her curly lashes.
Xu Yan: "..."
He put his legs together and bent over to pick up the fruits that had rolled on the floor one by one and put them away.
"I eat at home every morning, noon, and dinner." Xu Yan sat back slightly, and suddenly said, "I won't stay home at night, and I won't work overtime—try my best not to work overtime. On weekends... I will be at home on weekends, If you're going anywhere, traveling or vacationing, tell me in advance and I'll go with you. If you call me, I'll answer; text, one minute—five minutes, um... within ten minutes Reply."
The man with thick eyebrows and big eyes looked solemn, stared at the desktop, and recited the text word by word in a deep voice: "My communication records can be shared with you, my communication friends and social accounts have no women who chat more than ten sentences. ."
"I won't quarrel with you, I won't hit you, if you hit me, I won't fight back... I try not to run away. All my accounts and permissions will also be shared with you, you don't need to tell me—"
Having said this, he paused and added hesitantly: "But it's better not to use more than 50% at a time... Then there may be problems with the flow of funds."
"Most things, I won't refute you - if I refute you, you can scold me, and I won't retort."
"I won't interfere with your hobbies, I won't disturb you when you're busy..." Xu Yan said this, turning his eyes back to Li Xin, and then immediately turning his eyes away from her, his voice was even louder. Low: "I can listen to you if you want children or how many children you want."
Li Xin, whose eyelashes twitched when she heard the last sentence: "..."
child?
"So, you marry me, I think it's very good, very suitable." Xu Yan began to summarize, "My father likes you very much, and I... I also like you very much, our personalities are very suitable, and we get along very well. it is good."
"What do you think, what do you think?" Xu Yan asked slowly, because the whole person kept moving backwards, he managed to make the originally flat couch slightly tilted to 45°.
Li Xin, who had listened to his long speech in silence, fell into deep thought.
Time passed by, and when the sofa under Xu Yan's buttocks was already tilted to 60°, Li Xin finally said, "Let's talk about it in a while."
She raised her eyes, looked at him and said, "I'll think about it, and my identity problem has not been resolved."
Before that, maybe Li Xin would agree.
But now she really wants to think about it, not only because of the uncertainties in the future that she gradually perceives, but also because just now, when Xu Yan was reading his long essay, Li Xin checked the word "marriage" and casually I clicked into an emotional forum and saw that they were arranged from top to bottom:
Entry 1: "Marriage is the grave of life and the executioner of freedom."
Entry 2: "Three years of marriage, my husband and I fight on average once a day."
Entry 3: "After getting married, I lost my freedom, and I didn't even have the time and mood to play games."
Entry 4: "August 18 my superb mother-in-law."
…
At a glance, the first two were fine, but the third one made Li Xin's brows twitch.
She decided to go back and study again.
Xu Yan: "..."
He said solemnly: "If you don't want to get married now, I can also pursue you first."
Li Xin hummed out of necessity.
When Xu Zhen came home from the meeting, it was already late at night. He pushed open the door and came in. The headlights in the living room were not turned on, only a few wall lamps with soft light were lit.
Xu Zhen likes this kind of picture, as if someone is standing at the door of the house with a lamp waiting for him to return, just like many years ago.
When suddenly saw a huge shadow on the sofa, Xu Zhenqiu was startled.
"...What are you doing here?" Xu Zhen asked angrily after seeing the expressionless face that belonged to his unfortunate son.
"When will her identity information be ready?" Xu Yan asked.
"You ask me, I'll ask who to go." Xu Zhen frowned, and the expression on his face also showed some confusion: "It stands to reason that it should have come down long ago."
"I did make a call, but Lao Zheng couldn't explain it clearly. He promised to help me ask, but there is still no reply." Xu Zhen sat down and took a sip of the tea that Yinzi made, "The only explanation can only be, There might be something wrong with Xiaoli."
"I'll ask someone to check again." Xu Zhen said, "Don't worry."
Xu Yan got the answer, stood up silently and turned back to the room.
"How about you, how's it going?" Xu Zhen came from behind with a smile.
Xu Yan ignored him and strode forward without looking back.
Xu Zhen didn't care about his rebellious son's attitude at all, and cheerfully suggested: "You can ask that kid from the Lin family for help."
…
After coming to Xu's house, Li Xin's routine has become more regular. After breakfast in the morning, Li Xin sat on the sofa in the room and put on the sensor. After a while, the "Jiuqi" in the game opened his eyes.
Turning over and jumping down from the tree, Li Xin glanced at the map, preparing to return to Qiludake.
Out of prudence, she didn't even use the teleportation array directly, but flew back on the cloud.
Although it is not as fast as the teleportation array, the speed of riding the cloud is also very fast. Within half an hour, Li Xin approached the transfer station on Moon Island.
Li Xin suddenly braked in midair.
It was only because she saw a few familiar brown-robed figures when she casually glanced at a place on Crescent Moon Island.
Li Xin: "..."
Even more unfortunate, these brown-robed people also saw her. She had a big stroke on her way, and although she was wearing a cloak, her face was not covered at all.
Li Xin turned around and ran.
A few brown-robed men jumped up and chased after him.
The strong wind roared, Cheng Yun took out the strength to suckle and ran, and the fluffy body spread out a little.
Li Xin sat on his back and kept throwing skills behind to hinder the pursuit of the brown-robed people.
The speed of these brown-robed people is too fast, and several of them are also throwing skills forward.
"呲", a snake-like golden light slammed hard on the shield held up by Li Xin.
Immediately after hearing a cracking sound, the transparent shield cracked.
Li Xin hurriedly condensed a new one, and at the same time threw a golden flame back.
The skill exploded in mid-air, which indeed blocked the pursuit of the brown-robed people, but it was only a block.
In the blink of an eye, it was approaching again.
Cheng Yun fled at full speed for half an hour and couldn't get rid of these people, and half of the entire cloud was blackened.
Li Xin kept throwing skills all the time, and she was also condensing her shield almost non-stop. After half an hour, even she felt exhausted like a quagmire.
Of course, it is fortunate that among these brown-robed people, the leader obviously didn't come, otherwise Li Xin would have been lying at the resurrection point in a face-to-face meeting.
Throwing out another skill, Li Xin flipped her hand and took out a glass bottle. Under the sun, the gorgeous pink potion in the bottle flows out with a dazzling light effect like gold powder.
Li Xin tapped her finger, flicked the bottle cap off, and moved closer to her face.
As soon as it came into contact with the outside air, the pink medicine in the bottle instantly turned into a mist, which floated out and rushed towards Li Xin's face.
Potion [Pink Dreams].
As soon as she took the potion, Li Xin felt that her energy, which had a faint feeling of exhaustion, instantly swelled like foamed glue, and she felt refreshed and energetic.
Li Xin tried it and estimated that her [God] attribute should have increased by 10%.
The two quick-release skills [Golden Flame] and [Butterfly Blade] pushed the brown-robed man who was chasing him back a little bit again. Li Xin took the opportunity to feed Chengyun with food and medicine to prevent his mount from being exhausted. start speed.
"Ringling..." Chengyun called out a few times weakly.
"Hold on for a while." Li Xin comforted it softly.
The brown-robed man chased after him reluctantly, chasing Li Xin Man Hai and fleeing. These few people simply showed the persistence of chasing and killing their father's enemy, and they chased her all day and night.
Cheng Yun had already lost his strength and was taken back, and now Li Xin was running away on his own legs.
Fortunately, the brown-robed people are still mortal and tired, and their chasing speed and attack strength are not as good as before.
The dark sea, the waves are as obscure as fog, and the sky is deep blue. Li Xin is like a swimming fish, swimming around in the water to hide its traces. Not far away, a few brown-robed figures stepped on a prop shaped like a raft and chased after them, throwing a skill from time to time, knocking the sea water out of a fountain-like "pothole".
Li Xin has always had good luck.
When it was about to dawn, it suddenly rained on the sea, and it was getting heavier and heavier.
The waves are like mountains and the rainstorm is like a waterfall. In such an environment, let alone looking for someone, you can't even open your eyes.
Li Xin summoned Cheng Yun, who had regained some vitality after resting for a few hours, and let him carry him to the island.
Rongyun is a creature that grows on the sea, and it can be said that he is too familiar with the sea. It wrapped the pear and walked through the rain against the sea, and soon found a large island nearby.
Lixin went to the island, wandered around in the woods, found a small cave, got into the fire to dry the soaked clothes, and then went offline.
Heavy rain will cover up all traces.
Taking off the sensor, Li Xin opened her eyes and saw a large mass of black shadows on the sofa opposite.
He took a closer look and met a pair of black eyes.
Xu Yan moved and said, "You haven't come out for a day, I... come in and take a look."
"Yeah." Li Xin nodded, and didn't care much about him entering his room without permission. Due to her birth environment, she actually has a sense of territory, but her sense of privacy is not very strong.
Seeing that she was not dissatisfied with her behavior, Xu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and put the pair of hands that shrank back unconsciously.
"Do you want something to eat?" Xu Yan asked.
"Yeah." Li Xin nodded, looking a little tired.
"Then I'll go down and wait for you." Xu Yan stood up and looked around secretly with his eyes subconsciously. He didn't know what he saw, or what he was thinking, and Xu someone kicked the table again with a "thump". on the legs.
Li Xin looked up.
Xu Yan strode away without looking back. After a few steps, he turned back and closed the door.
Li Xin got up and moved her body, which was sitting a little stiff, and glanced at the time.
[(AM) 5:21]
When going downstairs, Li Xin found that Xu Zhen was also there. On the table is the mellow and thick white porridge, served in a turquoise porcelain bowl, refreshing and beautiful. On the plate is a light green lotus leaf steamed cake, next to a basket of three fresh steamed dumplings with thin and translucent skins.
Seeing her, Xu Zhen warmly said, "Young man, you should still pay attention to your body."
"Something." Li Xin explained, walking over to sit down.
Xu Zhen didn't say more, leaned over and poured her a cup of soy milk.
After breakfast, Xu Zhen stood up and said to Li Xin, "Xiao Li, come with me."
Xu Yan, who was sitting next to him, looked over immediately, his dark eyes full of vigilance.
Xu Zhen laughed, "Okay, then you come too."
Only then did Xu Yan retract his eyes, stand up and walk beside Li Xin.
Among the three, Xu Yan was the tallest and strongest, and Xu Zhen was a little over 1.8 meters tall, slightly shorter than him.
Xu Zhen led the two upstairs, walked into his study, turned around and motioned for Xu Yan and Li Xin to sit down on the sofa.
Xu Zhen's study, plus Li Xin this time, has been here three times in total. It's big, and the overall layout is dark tones of brown and black. There are some things in there, like the table and a few cupboards, that are clearly old things. There is a photo frame on the table, and on the wall beside the table is a half-height artistic photo of Ms. Du when she was young.
The long-haired girl with gentle eyebrows, dressed in a cheongsam, sat on the white sofa with her arms around her, with a slight smile on her lips.
Every time I come, Li Xin will stare at this photo for a long time.
"Your identity issue..." Xu Zhen spoke carefully, and the first sentence caught Li Xin and Xu Yan's eyes, "I asked someone to ask, and they said yes, after your information characteristics were entered, for some unknown reason stopped."
"After the negotiation, the other party said that he wants to meet you." Xu Zhen looked at Li Xin with a puzzled expression: "This is a direct reply from the federal government."
Li Xin frowned slightly, thinking silently.
"That's why I just wanted to ask you, are you willing to go this trip?" Xu Zhen's pair of deep blacks, who were the same as Xu Yan, stared at Li Xin and asked her for her opinion: "The reason why I consider this proposal is that I hope you You can find out why the other party cares about you.”
"Of course, it's up to you to decide whether to go or not. Don't worry, the Xu family is no longer the Xu family it used to be—in any case," he promised, "I will keep you safe."
"It will take a while. Wait..." After a long while, Li Xin said slowly, without saying anything.
Xu Zhen didn't ask, and after getting the answer, he said, "Okay, you can go back to rest, I'm going to work too."
Li Xin nodded, turned around and went out. Xu Yan, who was sitting beside him as a stake, also stood up and followed.
"Stop." Xu Zhen called him, "You, go to work with me. Why, do you think you can't go to work if you don't sleep?"
Xu Yan: "..."
So the father and son of the Xu family went to work side by side with Chaoyang.
On the other hand, Li Xin ate and drank, took a bath, closed the curtains, and slept very comfortably.
Opening her eyes again, Li Xin blinked slowly and glanced sideways at the smart housekeeper page beside the bed.
[(PM) 4:12]
"Smart Butler Silver reminds you: Lunch time has passed.
^_^ Is Miss Pear ready to eat
[yes/later/don't bother]"
It's already past four o'clock, let's just wait for the two to come back from work and have dinner together, Li Xin thought, and brought up the main menu page and clicked on the two options of [Fruit] and [Dessert].
"Smart Butler Silver: ^_^ Received, please wait."
After eating, Li Xin connected to the Miracle Sensor.
The weather at sea is always unpredictable. When it was almost dawn, it rained like a waterfall, and now the hot sun shines directly into the entrance of the cave.
Li Xin stood up, shook her head, and frowned slightly while holding her forehead. When my body moves, it feels like a layer of glue has stuck, and my mind is too stagnant.
The sequelae of using Pharmacy Powder Dreams.
Li Xin stood against the rock for a while, thinking slowly.
Having experienced what happened yesterday, Li Xin didn't dare to take chances anymore.
Even though the Cole father and daughter have been sent away, these people are still squatting around and wanting them for unknown reasons. It seems that the southern continent cannot stay any longer for the time being.
Thinking of a prop with falling ash in her package, Li Xin decided to go to the northern continent.
Flipping out the [Queen Kuya's ring] and playing with it, Li Xin glanced at the coordinates in the prompt message, "Northern Continent, Extreme Ice Field, Koshwas."
Suddenly, the private chat channel rang. Li Xin clicks:
[Xu Yan]: Awake
[Xu Yan]: Do you type it
[97]: No. I am going to the northern continent.
[Xu Yan]: ... have a mission
[Ninety-seven]: Well.
[Xu Yan]: I'll go with you.
Seeing this, Li Xin was a little surprised. She once managed a big gang and knew how many things to deal with.
[Nine Seven]: Don't you need to stay in the gang
[Xu Yan]: Lin Guyi has been relatively free recently.
The origin of this item is special, and the level of the quest it opens will not be low. Xu Yan is fine too.
Li Xin went back to "See you in the Keya Canyon".
Back there.
Li Xin took out the blank paper again and told Marianne about her itinerary and yesterday's experience.
A golden word "Reading" quickly appeared on the white paper.
Li Xin summoned Chengyun and rushed to the Kea Grand Canyon.
In order to avoid being recognized again, Li Xin deliberately used a hair dye to dye herself pink hair and orange eyes.
Compared with physical disguise, the potion is actually less secure. If there is a "disguise" potion, there will naturally be a "restored" potion.
So keep quiet.
When Li Xin arrived, Xu Yan had been waiting for a while. Because the former traveled a certain distance to a small remote city and then teleported over, the latter obviously went to the main city teleportation array.
Xu Yan was dressed in black leather armor and stood there with a long sword on his back. He was tall and strong.
This man has always disliked using capes.
He should have put the gem [Blessing of the Sea] in it, and he didn't know how to get it. The original knife turned into a sword shape.
"Let's go." Li Xin stepped forward.
"Yeah." Xu Yan replied.
With the flow of people stepping into the cool passage, after a few minutes, it was like walking from summer to winter.
"The map has been unlocked: the northern continent, the map is being perfected..."
As soon as he stepped out of the Kea Grand Canyon, the cold and cold wind mixed with white snow flakes rushed towards him.
The wind is like a knife.
Players in the northern continent have a widely circulated description: "Three weeks of snow in January and winter all year round."
This continent is located at the northernmost tip of the continent, and white is the absolute keynote.
Li Xin had never been to the north in the last life, and apart from looking at other people's screenshots, she had never seen real snow either in reality or in the game.
Her eyes were novel, she raised her face and stretched out her hand to grab a handful, then retracted her palm and spread it out in front of her eyes. A cold, feather-like piece lay quietly in the palm of the hand, and instantly turned into transparent snow.
Li Xin grabbed a few more pieces, brought her cheeks closer, and suddenly stuck out the tip of her tongue to lick it.
Xu Yan, who was quietly watching her, saw this scene, his eyes froze, and his face suddenly turned away.
Unconsciously, Li Xin let go of her hands, squatted down and touched the snow on the ground, got up and walked a few steps, looking back at the small pits she stepped on.
The sky was full of snow, falling on the top of her hooded head and shoulders.
Li Xin's eyes turned a few times in the silver world as far as she could see, then she suddenly looked back at Xu Yan, her eyes curved and a smile appeared.
Xu Yan stared at her intently, and unconsciously also slightly raised the corners of his lips.
"Your eyelashes are falling." Li Xin said with a smile.
"Huh?" Xu Yan responded unconsciously.
"Xue." Li Xin said, suddenly leaned over, stood on tiptoe, and reached out to touch his face.
Xu Yan's expression maintained his usual seriousness, and he remained motionless, with her face getting closer and closer in his dark eyes.
Li Xin picked off the piece of snow that fell on his eyelashes, let go of his fingers and let it fall to the ground.
Clicking on the big map, Li Xin searched for the purpose of this trip, "The Land of Extreme Ice".
If the northern continent is the northernmost point of the continent, the polar ice plain is the northernmost point of the northern continent. Blizzard all year round, the ice layer does not melt, this is the ice field.
As for where to find the specific "Koshiwas", you must first unlock the map of the polar ice field.
Now Lixin and Xu Yan are at the southernmost tip of the northern continent. The quickest way to go to the polar ice plain is to find the nearest city first, and then use the city teleportation array to reach the main city of the northern continent, Correa. The main city of a continent has the most complete teleportation point, which can reach the polar ice plain.
After setting the route, the two started their journey.
The closest city to the Kea Grand Canyon is called "Hulafu", which is the first major transportation city in the northern continent.
The two stood in the line that entered the city.
Li Xin was okay, she was wearing a cloak. But Xu Yan, the players and NPC next to him all glanced at him.
That kind of gaze is probably when you go out, tightly wrapped in a down jacket and shivering, when a guy in short sleeves suddenly passes by, you can't help but look at him a few times.
Strong man, aren't you cold? The question was clearly written in those eyes.
Xu Yan's face was expressionless, and his figure stood straight and motionless, but his cheeks were a little faintly blue.
Nonsense, of course it's cold.
Both Li Xin and Xu Yan already had a "Cold" buff that reduced their attributes and energy consumption.
This is a characteristic of the northern continent. Because the temperature is low, and the temperature inside the continent is lower, the people living here not only need to wear thick clothes, but also need to take cold-repellent medicines when going out in most places.
To the north of the middle of the continent, the cold buff will drop blood directly.
The author has something to say: Xu Yan: I went to the north.
Lin Guyi (Jiuzhimei), who was suddenly "very idle" by the cue: ? ?
Doubt in the world?
