This is a problem that has troubled Xiao Yi Xian all the way.
In this world where interests are paramount, no one would offend a local snake for a complete stranger for no reason.
Even if I had a one-sided relationship with Green Mountain Town before, it was only a one-sided relationship.
Lu Heng Looking at her eyes that were even cleaner than the stars, I thought of the white-haired woman with a veil in the original work.
At that moment, the playfulness in Lu Heng's eyes disappeared, and he became more serious.
"Because you are beautiful."
Lu Heng smiled brightly and answered confidently, vulgarly and straightforwardly.
Xiao Yi Xian was startled, obviously not expecting such an answer.
She opened her mouth and was about to say why this person is so frivolous, but she saw Lu Heng added:
"Beautiful things are always easy to be coveted and deserve to be protected."
"Is this reason enough?"
Under the willow tree, the breeze brought a bit of coolness, making Xiao Yi Xian's hair on the temples slightly messy.
Xiao Yi Xian stared blankly at the boy in front of him, who seemed to be several years younger than himself.
"Because you are beautiful."
This sentence is really too straightforward, to the point of being a bit hooligan.
If it were a normal dandy with an oily head and a pink face, Xiao Yi Xian would just feel disgusted, and would even secretly sprinkle some powder on that person that would make it itchy for three days.
However, when Lu Heng said this, he was a little too magnanimous.
Lu Heng's eyes are very bright, there is no messy desire, there is only a kind of incomprehensible... It seems that they have known each other for a long time, and they are familiar and happy.
Xiao Yi Xian's heart trembled suddenly.
During her several years at Green Mountain Town, she was used to seeing those mercenaries groveling in order to survive, and she was also used to seeing their ferocious faces when facing interests.
No one has ever stood in front of her like this, simply because she is a "beautiful thing", for no reason, blocking all malice for her.
"You..."
Xiao Yi Xian lowered his head. His innocent face, which usually had a sense of alienation, was actually a little hot at this moment.
She wanted to scold Lu Heng for being frivolous, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't say them out.
Somehow, Xiao Yi Xian raised his head, a sly look flashed in his beautiful eyes, as if to cover up his panic, he half-jokingly stretched out his soft, boneless hand:
"Then... thank you Mr. Lu for your favor?"
Lu Heng looked at the hand stretched out in front of him. It was white and slender, like mutton-fat jade.
The smile on his lips deepened, and he was about to reach out to hold it, but found that the hand in front of him seemed to be electrocuted, and he jerked back.
Xiao Yi Xian's eyes became a little dodgeful at that moment, and a trace of sadness quickly flashed across his originally bright eyes.
What are you doing?
How could I forget my own body?
That ominous and strange body.
Although it has not erupted again yet, the curse hidden deep in the bloodline is like a bomb that will explode at any time.
Whoever gets close to him will become unhappy.
The Lu Heng in front of us has a bright future. He is Dou Master at such a young age, and he doesn't even look down on that annoying Jia Lie Family.
He should be that radiant genius, and should not have anything to do with someone like himself who is destined to wallow in a heap of poison.
"Better... forget it."
Xiao Yi Xian forced out a smile, and there was a heart-wrenching helplessness in that smile. Xiao Yi Xian wanted to completely put his hands back into his sleeves.
However, the next second.
A warm and strong hand reached over unreasonably and grabbed the palm of her hand that she wanted to escape from.
There was no gentle temptation, just a simple and rough interlacing of the fingers, tightly wrapping her cold fingertips.
Xiao Yi Xian trembled all over and subconsciously wanted to struggle:
"What are you doing? Let go..."
"If you catch me, how can you let go?"
Lu Heng used a little strength to prevent her from breaking free, but at the same time carefully controlled the force so as not to hurt her.
He came closer and spoke in a domineering tone:
"You just extended your hand yourself, and now you want to regret it?"
"It's late."
"But I..."
Xiao Yi Xian was a little anxious and kept his voice very low, as if he was afraid that the wind would blow away the secret.
"I'm different... you'll regret it."
"What's the difference?"
Lu Heng raised his eyebrows. He didn't care about Xiao Yi Xian's little thoughts. Instead, he shook the two people's clasped hands even more.
"Isn't it just that your hands are cooler than others? Just in time, I have strong firepower and can warm you up."
Saying that, Lu Heng really started to move the Separating Fire Dou Qi in his body in a serious manner.
A gentle but not burning warmth flowed continuously along the palms of the two people's hands.
The warmth was not intense, but like the warm sun in winter, it instantly dispelled the chill on Xiao Yi Xian's fingertips, and even flowed along the meridians to the bottom of his heart.
Xiao Yi Xian was stunned.
She stared blankly at the fingers of the two of them clasped together, feeling the constant warmth, and her eyes felt a little sore for no reason.
"Why are you such a scoundrel..."
Xiao Yi Xian stopped struggling and just murmured in a low voice, the last trace of defensiveness in his voice dissipating.
"To deal with a silly girl like you who thinks too much, you have to be more rogue."
Lu Heng smiled and did not let go of his hand. Instead, he turned around and faced the bustling street:
"Let's go, it's a rare trip to Wutan City. We can't just feed mosquitoes by the river."
Xiao Yi Xian let him hold his hand, walked a little briskly, turned his head and asked:
"Boss Yao is still discussing business with Yao Cai. It will take about two or three days to get back to Green Mountain Town. These two days... I will be alone."
"That's just right."
Lu Heng tilted his head, and the sun shone on the side of his face, outlining the high-spirited outline of the young man:
"During the few days you are here at Wutan City, I will reluctantly act as your exclusive flower protector."
"Do you still want to charge me?" Xiao Yi Xian blinked and his mood became lighter.
"It's very expensive." Lu Heng said seriously, "But because you look good, it's okay to pay for it."
"Pfft..."
The two looked at each other and smiled, blending into the bustling crowd side by side.
On this day, the people of Wutan City saw a strange scene.
The ruthless young man who had just killed everyone in front of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion and deposed the elder Jia Lie Family was now like a child who had not yet grown up, holding a beautiful girl in a white dress and lingering in front of various stalls.
He would bargain with the stall owner for a long time for a not-so-exquisite hosta, and then turn around and spend a lot of money to buy a bunch of weird gadgets that Xiao Yi Xian looked at twice.
Lu Heng pulled Xiao Yi Xian through the busy city, bought her the sweetest candied haws, and took her to the highest restaurant to enjoy the scenery.
The ten fingers that were tightly interlocked never separated from the beginning to the end.
