Shen Ruo was originally sitting on the sofa in the reception room on the first floor. Chu Xiao brought him here and then left.
Knowing that he was going to meet relatives, Shen Ruo just sat here and drank by himself. The fruit wine was sweet and not very high.
But there were too many guests, and some people came in one after another. This is the place where guests are received, so it is normal for them to come in.
Shen Ruo stayed for a while, and two or three demi-humans sitting together looked at him frequently. Shen Ruo noticed that they were looking at him, not only them, but also other demi-human women. It felt like a very strange look.
He felt a little uncomfortable. When he looked over, those people looked back, as if nothing had happened, which made Shen Ruo feel even more strange.
After the wine in the glass was finished, Shen Ruo stood up and left.
The reception room was sealed and very gorgeous, but there were no windows. He drank wine, and the fruit wine was still wine no matter how low the alcohol content was, so he felt a little hot.
Although there is a wall air conditioner to adjust the indoor temperature, Shen Ruo is used to staying in a bright and transparent rural farm, so he feels that this kind of closed room is a bit stuffy.
He remembered that there was a flower room on the second floor, which was transparent from the north to the south. When he was decorating this place yesterday, Chu Xiao took him to see it, so Shen Ruo knew that it could be ventilated there.
So Shen Ruo went up to the second floor, but there were already people in the greenhouse and there wasn't much space inside, so he had to go somewhere else.
There was no one on the terrace, so Shen Ruo went over to blow some air.
The temperature has risen a bit today. After all, it is summer and the wind seems to be carrying heat.
Shen Ruo's mind was filled with things about Chu Xiao. It was fine when Chu Xiao was around and he didn't dare to think too much, but now that he was alone, he couldn't help but think about whether he should tell Chu Xiao or not.
The wind was blowing, and various conversations and laughter came from both the first and second floors. Shen Ruo still couldn't calm down.
The sun had set, the sky had darkened, and twinkling stars began to appear in the distance. Shen Ruo thought of the fireworks that night and Chu Xiao standing under the starlight.
Maybe it was the drinking, or maybe it was the heat of this summer, that made Shen Ruo want to solve this troublesome problem that he had been struggling with for several days as soon as possible so that he could calm down. Otherwise, he would always be so restless and unable to stay anywhere. live.
He has heard someone say that you can't always wait or rely on others for love, you must learn to fight for it yourself.
Now that Chu Xiao has no girlfriend or boyfriend and is still single, he can go for it.
Shen Ruo thought this, but he still couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He even took a few steps back and forth in the small space on the terrace.
Taking a long breath, Shen Ruo calmed himself down, but if he really went to find Chu Xiao, what should he say to him.
He began to feel restless again, and he didn't know what to do.
Shen Ruo frowned, and his expression looked a little painful. Then say, do you like him
Thinking of this, Shen Ruo's heart beat faster and his ears began to feel hot. He even felt that his breath was hot.
When Shen Ruo was ready, relying on his slight drunkenness, he finally plucked up the courage to confess his love.
Even if he was rejected, he had fought for it, and he would be able to leave the Emperor Star when the time came.
Preparing for the worst, Shen Ruo almost walked out of the balcony hand and foot, but luckily he noticed it in time and adjusted.
Shen Ruo, who was about to confess his love, could only see the stairs he was going down, and didn't care about the eyes of the people around him because he was too nervous to pay attention to others.
When Shen Ruo was about to go down the steps, he was suddenly hit by an inexplicable force on the crook of his leg. He was completely defenseless and lost his footing.
It was an extremely embarrassing posture. At the moment of falling, Shen Ruo was face down, and his forehead directly hit the edge of the steps. He himself heard a bang, but then, no sound was made. Shen Ruo rolled down directly.
Seeing this scene, Chu Xiao's pupils shrank, and he immediately strode forward, jumped up the steps with long legs, and stopped Shen Ruo who had just rolled down a few floors. Before Shen Ruo could react, he bent down and hugged the person. rise.
A medical robot immediately flew over, and a disk-type treatment device flew out from its chest.
When Chu Xiao carried Shen Ruo up to the second floor in two or three steps, the disc therapeutic device flew above Shen Ruo's head. The four nozzles sprayed out medicinal mist, which quickly stopped the bleeding from the wound on Shen Ruo's forehead. .
Shen Ruo was completely stunned. He heard the exclamations just now, but his ears were like cotton wool and he couldn't hear them clearly.
After his body took off, he realized that he was being held in someone's arms. His eyes were blood red, and blood was flowing down from his forehead, almost covering his eyes.
When Chu Xiao stopped Shen Ruo, he saw a deep wound on his forehead, where he had hit the edge of the steps.
Kicking open the door of the reception room on the second floor, he was so strong that he could almost knock the door down. Chu Xiao said nothing with a cold face, and the people sitting on the sofa immediately gave up their seats.
After placing Shen Ruo on the sofa, Chu Xiao saw that the wound on his forehead was healing quickly under the treatment of medicinal mist, but Shen Ruo fainted.
—
His mind was groggy, and even if he fainted, Shen Ruo felt extremely uncomfortable.
His brows furrowed tightly, and he felt a sense of heart palpitations spreading. He had many nightmares, all of which were disturbing.
It was as if his mind was stuffed with many things that he had never known before. There was a thick book controlled by invisible hands, and the pages were quickly turned in his mind.
His body involuntarily floated above the book. Shen Ruo saw many words, and his name and Chu Xiao were clearly in them, which was shocking.
The extremely suppressed emotions suddenly broke out, and Shen Ruo opened his eyes suddenly, gasping for air, as if he had woken up from a nightmare.
"Wake up, wake up."
There was a sound in my ears, saying something about waking up.
Shen Ruo felt that the lights above hurt his eyes, tears flowed down, and he subconsciously reached out to cover his eyes.
"How do you feel now?"
A familiar voice came from the side, and Shen Ruo subconsciously turned his head to look.
It's Chu Xiao.
But Shen Ruo stood there blankly as if she didn't recognize him.
He had bled a lot because he hit his head, and his face now looked pale and pale. He was looking at Chu Xiao with that blank expression, and his tears kept flowing down. When people around him saw it, they felt that something was wrong with him.
Shen Ruo couldn't remember any of those nightmares, as if they had never happened before, but the depression and darkness, as well as the content of the book that appeared in his mind, were engraved in his mind, but he couldn't remember it for the moment. No matter what was written in the book, I only remember that there was him and Chu Xiao.
When Shen Ruo found himself lying there, he struggled to get up. Chu Xiao, who was kneeling on one knee by the sofa, frowned slightly and wanted to stop him, but as soon as he reached out to touch Shen Ruo, he was suddenly thrown away.
Like avoiding venomous snakes and beasts, the moment Shen Ruo was touched by Chu Xiao, he was extremely frightened and found it difficult to breathe. He didn't know where he got the strength to react immediately.
Chu Xiao's outstretched hand froze.
After Shen Ruo sat up, his face was pale and ugly. He hugged his knees and huddled there. The blood on his forehead had not been wiped off. He looked so trembling that he didn't even dare to look at Chu Xiao.
The people around him didn't know what was going on, but they didn't say anything when they saw Chu Xiao's expression obviously darkening.
Shen Ruo fell and hit his head again. Chu Xiao looked at him and slowly pulled back, suppressing the inexplicable irritation in his heart. He wouldn't touch him if he wasn't allowed to, and he didn't have to touch him.
But then, Chu Xiao stretched out his hand again and said as patiently as possible: "You are injured. I will take you back to your room to rest."
It was a magnetic sound that I was used to hearing. It was the first time for Chu Xiao to coax a demi-human like this. People who had known him since childhood were all surprised, even though they had heard that Chu Xiao had a new guy next to him two days ago. He pretends to be a gentleman, but he turns out to be true.
In fact, everyone who saw Chu Xiao today, whether they were relatives or friends, saw that he was dressed neatly in a formal suit, and the hair on his forehead that was usually pushed back was also let down, giving him a rebellious and lazy look. It was reduced a lot, especially Chu Xiao who still had a decent smile on his face, and everyone who came was shocked.
But Chu Xiao didn't give anyone a chance to express such surprise in front of him and Shen Ruo. He directly brought Shen Ruo into the reception room, and he quickly got away from his relatives to find Shen Ruo.
Moreover, when he brought Shen Ruo to the guest room, he quietly placed a nano thermal sensor on Shen Ruo.
It was a very small patch that he put on Shen Ruo's clothes casually. The heat sensor changed according to the changes in the surrounding environment. It became the same color as Shen Ruo's clothes. It was also very small and basically would not be affected by it. Discover.
Chu Xiao modified the program of the thermal sensor. As long as the thermal sensor detects someone approaching a distance of one meter from Shen Ruo, the thermal sensor will immediately alarm. Of course, only his optical brain can receive this message.
After he left Shen Ruo briefly, the alarm did not sound, so Chu Xiao was not in a hurry just now, but he did not expect Shen Ruo to fall.
After Chu Xiao finished speaking, Shen Ruo remained motionless, still huddled up. The tears on his face and the blood on his forehead made him look in bad condition, and his face was not very good, even a little dull. He looked at Chu Xiao, He was obviously someone he knew, but now, he was not sure.
The influx of too much information made Shen Ruo's brain feel swollen and painful, and the wound on his forehead also hurt. He began to feel drowsy again, his eyesight went black for a while, his body swayed, and he was about to fall to the side. But he doesn't know it himself.
With quick eyes and quick hands, Chu Xiao immediately stood up and bent down to support Shen Ruo.
Unexpectedly, with just such a touch, Shen Ruo suddenly collapsed.
"Don't touch me!"
His face was covered with tears, mixed with some blood flowing from his forehead, and his voice was hoarse. Although he was shouting in collapse, Shen Ruo's voice was not loud. He cried and wanted to wave away Chu Xiao's hand.
He had no patience anymore. Shen Ruo's face was getting paler and paler, and his condition was too bad. Chu Xiao's face was gloomy, but he still picked him up. There were too many people here, and Shen Ruo needed a quiet environment.
The struggling Shen Ruo was trembling all over and tears kept flowing down, but he was very weak now.
Not only because of the bruise, but also because his brain was almost split, Chu Xiao picked up Shen Ruo and within a few steps, Shen Ruo fainted again.
After the disc therapeutic device detected that Shen Ruo had fainted due to weakness, it used a mechanical sound to report. Chu Xiao knew that he was fine for the time being, so he carried him back to the main building.
