Xu Shiyue's words came suddenly, neatly and decisively, and so did his actions.
Before Lu Shizhen could react after he finished speaking, her unresponsive body was embraced by a strong arm.
The whistling wind kept passing by Lu Shizhen's ears. In the confusion, she heard Xu Shiyue whisper calmly in her ear: "I won't let anything happen to you, don't be afraid."
Lu Shizhen has always believed in Xu Shiyue's promises.
The open car door connected this enclosed space with the outside world. She was held in this thin and safe embrace and rolled out of the car that was about to collide with the truck.
The world was churning in Lu Shizhen's sight. The scene inside the car was completely covered by the influx of green, with blue and green mixed together.
The loss of body sensation made her feel no pain at all, but the inertia of rolling down from the car caused her body to roll for a long time.
I don't know if it's because my bad luck far outweighs Xu Shiyue's protagonist halo at the moment, but the originally smooth roll suddenly accelerated and fell downwards at a certain moment.
The rippling waves added to Lu Shizhen's chaotic vision, and the inertia that had not yet completely dissipated pushed them down the ramp connecting to the moat.
In spring, the hillside is covered with tender green grass, and the warm green is like a soft carpet.
But if people don’t really go up there, they won’t know that this seemingly harmless green grass slope hides many hidden weapons.
The stone didn't move and was just crushed by the human body. Lu Shizhen could clearly feel his body tremble.
She knew it would hurt her, but the loss of control over her body made it impossible for her to feel the pain.
Pain is a form of self-defense, and not being able to feel it is a terrifying and dangerous thing.
But unlike the last time he fell into the water, Lu Shizhen was not frightened by the horror this time.
It was not because she was numb and could not feel the pain, but because she was always wrapped in that thin arms.
Xu Shiyue was protecting her.
The legs are crossed and stacked together, the skirt is dangling, and every bone of the body is rolling over the grass, squeezing out a touch of green flavor.
It was like a little light that could clear one's mind in the midst of chaos and confusion, along with the smell of Xu Shiyue, all of which were swept up by the disorderly wind and filled Lu Shizhen's nostrils.
Although his vision was blurry, Lu Shizhen knew that Xu Shiyue was there.
When I was most helpless and ready to die, I protected myself completely.
The bony hands pressed down the slightly long hair, slightly cool and powerful, and soothed the most fragile neck.
Lu Shizhen still remembered the last time they rolled down the stairs, she also protected Xu Shiyue's head...
But now...
Lu Shizhen could feel Xu Shiyue's arms around her back, hugging her tightly.
But because she had lost control of her body, she just hung her arms like a doll.
The doll is also much better than her.
At least Xu Shiyue can use it without any scruples to block the impact.
A feeling of powerlessness surged into Lu Shizhen's heart.
The stones did not only hit her body in one direction. Xu Shiyue suffered no less than herself, and in fact, it was more because of herself.
Lu Shizhen struggled, the feeling of powerlessness was like a ferocious beast imprisoned by chains, rushing madly in her body.
In a daze, a thick willow tree came into her sight.
The slender willow branches swayed in the wind along with the ripples on the water, full of tranquility and beauty, hiding the rough dark brown trunk that few people would notice.
How could Xu Shiyue bear such a strong and rugged tree
impossible.
Even if she is the protagonist protected by the main system, it is not allowed.
Lu Shizhen was hugged tightly by Xu Shiyue. As the earth spun and the sky rotated, the thin body seemed to be embedded in her body. She drew the clear outline in her mind step by step.
Even if you don't die, you will be in so much pain that you won't be able to get out of bed for ten days or half a month.
Even in the original text's thrilling story full of bloody motorcycle chases, Xu Shiyue had never experienced such a thing.
This desire to resist accumulated more and more in Lu Shizhen's body.
She tried her best to move her body, even if it was just to raise her hand to protect Xu Shiyue.
The chains that bound her were rattling crazily in the rolling world, and Lu Shizhen could clearly feel the needle-like pain coming from her heart.
This pain was even more painful than the last time she admitted to Qiuqiu that she liked Xu Shiyue, forcing her to let go of her rebellious mentality against the main system's orders.
But it's no use.
Even though his heart was pierced by thousands of arrows, Lu Shizhen still wanted to protect Xu Shiyue.
None of them are puppets controlled by the main system.
The reason why human beings are human beings is that they can completely control their own destiny.
Lu Shizhen tried desperately to break free from the restraints that bound her.
Stones and dirt kept hitting her body, and blood stained the grass.
Finally, just before hitting the willow tree, Lu Shizhen raised her hands and hugged Xu Shiyue tightly.
"boom!"
The fragile human body hit the tree with a dull sound, and this time Lu Shizhen felt pain.
It wasn't a direct pain, but the pain from my back hitting the tree straight on, causing my bones to vibrate violently, and even my internal organs seemed to vibrate along with it.
For a moment, Lu Shizhen's brows were furrowed in pain.
She really wanted to complain about those cartoonists, including herself. How come other people's protagonists could stand up and fight immediately after rolling down and hitting something, and continue to fight with the bss with swords, but when it was her turn, she was in so much pain that she couldn't even stand up.
Is this why the second dimension is no longer Newton's business
"Lu Shizhen! Are you crazy?"
In an instant, Xu Shiyue's voice rang in Lu Shizhen's ears.
Her voice was trembling, and her usual calmness was suppressed by this scream, and she even showed some uncontrollable anger.
Lu Shizhen was really frightened by Xu Shiyue's voice.
She barely raised her head to look at the person she was protecting, half-heartedly hugged her into her arms again, and begged, "You hurt me just now, please don't be so fierce."
Lu Shizhen lowered his head in confusion, but saw that Xu Shiyue's eyes were red.
All the calmness, all the coldness, all the aloofness and indifference of the head of Xu Group were gone, and the eyes that tried so hard to suppress their calmness were filled with fear.
Xu Shiyue was once so decisive and ruthless in the rumors, but now he is so fragile.
The messy curly hair spread in front of her face, and the flexible hair cut her eyes, shattering them piece by piece.
Because of her negligence, she had already lost this person once.
She couldn't allow it to happen a second time, nor could she afford it to happen a second time.
This was a side of Xu Shiyue that Lu Shizhen had never seen before, and it made her panic.
In a panic, she caressed Xu Shiyue's back, apologized repeatedly, and explained: "Xu Shiyue, I was wrong. I just lied to you. It doesn't hurt, really, it doesn't hurt at all. I was just kidding you."
"Don't be like this, I'm actually quite happy." Lu Shizhen endured the pain, her voice more gentle than ever before, "Look, you protected me just now, so I'm protecting you now, right?"
Xu Shiyue, however, said, "Nothing will happen to me. Don't you know that?"
Lu Shizhen didn't understand what Xu Shiyue meant, or maybe she didn't think about it that way at all. She just thought she was worried about her, and said half-jokingly: "What are you talking about? Aren't you a human?"
"I'm really fine, just let go..."
As Lu Shizhen spoke, a comforting smile appeared on her face.
But then suddenly, she smelled something in the wind that sounded like rusty iron.
is blood…
Lu Shizhen suddenly became nervous, looking at Xu Shiyue in front of him, and asked hurriedly: "Xu Shiyue, what's going on? I smell blood. Do you have any wounds on your body?"
Xu Shiyue suppressed the emotions in her eyes, raised her hand, and touched Lu Shizhen's forehead: "It's you."
The bright red blood stained Xu Shiyue's white fingers. The red and white contrasted together, and it was extremely dazzling in the sunlight.
Lu Shizhen was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that something seemed to have really flowed down her forehead just now, but she still did not have control over her body, so she could not feel it sensitively.
No wonder Xu Shiyue had such a reaction just now.
After a pause, Lu Shizhen's eyes were somewhat evasive.
She pretended to be relaxed to cover up the fact that she was slow to react, and raised her hand to wipe the blood off her forehead, "Oh, it seems to be really me."
The sunlight had no idea how much effort it took for Lu Shizhen to simply raise her hand; it only shone on the smile on her face.
As brilliant as ever, as pure as ever.
And purity is the most irreplaceable existence in the world.
Xu Shiyue just looked at the smile on the face of the person in front of him, suppressed his emotions, stood up from the ground, and said: "Come on, move your body first, let me check if there is any..."
But just when Xu Shiyue wanted to help Lu Shizhen up and check her physical condition, Lu Shizhen stopped her.
She just looked at Lu Shizhen's serious eyes, and heard his gentle and solemn voice in her ears: "Xu Shiyue, don't be afraid of what I am going to tell you next."
Xu Shiyue stopped what he was doing immediately after hearing this: "Go ahead."
"I can't move for the time being, I can't stand up, and it's very difficult for me to sit like this." Lu Shizhen looked at Xu Shiyue with some helplessness in his eyes.
Lu Shizhen thought it took a long time to go down the hill, but in fact, the system countdown had only been two minutes.
There was no way she could chat with Xu Shiyue here for eight minutes about all sorts of things. She would be exposed sooner or later.
She could only confess.
Later, Lu Shizhen recalled what happened that day many times, and she didn't want to recall the feeling of her confession.
This feeling of powerlessness, this feeling of not wanting to make the other person worry but having to be honest with her and make her worry, is like tearing a hole and revealing myself to the other person.
Although it was said to be frank, it was actually very hasty.
Lu Shizhen avoided mentioning her temporary disability and was afraid that Xu Shiyue's eyes would turn red again like before. She then changed the topic to another store and repeated her explanation to Xu Shiyue in a relaxed and serious manner: "But I don't feel any pain, really."
"I'm not lying. It doesn't hurt at all. This condition is only temporary, just like numbness. It will be gone in a while, really. Don't..."
"You know, I'm even more scared because of you."
Before Lu Shizhen could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xu Shiyue.
She just looked at her steadily, her deep eyes filled with many emotions that Lu Shizhen couldn't see clearly.
Just like the sound of her saying it.
It was clearly clear, yet it sounded like a murmur to oneself, facing the abyss.
Lu Shizhen suddenly didn't know what to say to ease the atmosphere she had created. The moment she lowered her head, a hand brushed across her ear.
Xu Shiyue reached out and carefully tucked the messy hair on the side of her face behind her ears.
The slightly cool palm brushed across her cheek, and the fingertips gently touched her face: "Then don't move, I will help you hide it from them."
After saying that, Xu Shiyue looked at Li and the others who were rushing over from a distance, walked towards them and waved his hand.
Xu Shiyue's promise always makes Lu Shizhen feel at ease.
But Lu Shizhen felt that Xu Shiyue's reaction was too calm.
However, this calmness was not because she didn't care about herself, but because she believed or knew that the physical condition he vaguely confessed to her was not caused by rolling down the hill just now, and he would be well soon.
How can it be…
Lu Shizhen was stunned for a moment, just looking at the thin figure standing in the vast green.
I watched her turn around and walk towards me quickly, and then I watched her squat down beside me again.
After giving instructions to Li and the others, Xu Shiyue returned to Lu Shizhen and placed his slightly cool palm on the back of Lu Shizhen's hand.
But just when she was about to say something, the hand that fell on it was immediately held by the man.
The dark pupils swayed in her sight, reflecting the bright sunlight above her head, and looked straight at her.
The girl's dry lips opened and closed slightly, and she asked her softly: "Xu Shiyue, are you—"
