The girl ended up eating the noodles greedily until they ran out. His stomach was filled at the moment. The girl looked at Lu Xiao Lan who had also finished eating. He felt astonished because from earlier Lu Xiao Lan did not lower her veil.
Could this person be a fugitive? However, this person was still a savior to him. Whatever his identity, this person was still his master.
“What's your name?”
The girl looked up straight away. This guy asked his name? He's back down. “Luo Xi,”
Lu Xiao Lan nodded. He raised Luo Xi's chin so that the girl would look at him. “Don't duck like that, duck if needed. If you duck, then you'll look weak,”
Luo Xi was surprised. Actually, what does this guy mean? He doesn't understand.
Lu Xiao Lan stood up and pulled Luo Xi. “Close with me,”
Luo Xi just came along. They headed to a barrage of horse carriages parked not far from the tavern. It's like a motorcycle taxi driver.
Lu Xiao Lan paused for a moment and said without turning her head, “We will be riding the horse carriage. You must be tired, let alone your body injuries.”
Luo Xi was slightly stunned. He was also a little curious about the figure of the girl in front of him. He looks authoritative and charismatic. You could say he was an impromptu fan.
***
Now the two had entered the new residence belonging to Lu Xiao Lan that was given by the Guild Leader. Luo Xi looked around, feeling unfamiliar with this place because he had just come. Of course that was also the case for Lu Xiao Lan.
Xin'er welcomed the return of Lu Xiao Lan from the Sect, then glanced at the little girl who was hiding behind her nona back. Luo Xi gushed her head out to look at Xin'er with her hands clutching at Lu Xiao Lan's clothes.
“Nona, you have finally returned. And this .... ”
Lu Xiao Lan smiled, “So there was an interesting show. Then I bought this boy. Xin'er, please help her to clean up.”
The show?
It seemed like something had happened the moment Lu Xiao Lan came out. He nodded and looked at Luo Xi who was still staring at Lu Xiao Lan. His eyes were still fixedly staring at Lu Xiao Lan's back which was getting further away from him. A nano look was painted on his face.
Lu Xiao Lan paused for a moment and said without turning her head. “Oh yes, his name is Luo Xi. He and I had eaten at the tavern, but just prepare something to eat. Maybe he's still hungry,”
After saying that, Lu Xiao Lan immediately continued her footsteps. Xin'er.
“Alright,”
Xin'er looked back at Luo Xi who was still fixated on the spot while looking down. I don't know what the little girl thought. Xin'er stepped closer to Luo Xi, yet the little girl instantly rewinded her steps. He always stepped back as Xin'er tried to get closer, until his body had unknowingly met the door.
Xin'er extended her hand with a smile and invited him, hinting to follow her. However, the gaze from his eyes was a feeling of worry, a gaze that was afraid that people would approach him.
Xin'er still stretched out her hand while displaying a smile so that Luo Xi would not be afraid of her, “Mari, I will help you. Luo Xi,”
Luo Xi's eyes were rounded. Somehow he felt a strong aura from her. His hand had also stretched out to touch her, making her look terrified. As Xin'er's hand was about to approach and was about to grab Luo Xi, the little girl instead bit her hand.
“Auww,”
Xin'er hissed, feeling pain in her hands from being bitten. However, he did not care and looked at Luo Xi in confusion. The little girl seemed to be surprised by her own actions and lowered her head.
Lu Xiao Lan who heard the voice immediately went over to the two. His ears were quite sensitive, so he could still faintly hear Xin'er's voice. He frowned, looking at those who were just silent.
Xin'er did not come close to Luo Xi and just kept quiet, not wanting to make the little girl fear her. While Luo Xi was just silent and lowered her head. What the fuck?
“Do I really have to bathe this little girl myself? That's right,”
“Luo Xi, you must obey him. Don't be afraid, he's good kok.”
Luo Xi immediately looked up and looked at the indifferent Lu Xiao Lan, then looked at Xin'er who was rubbing her hand that she had bitten.
“Alright,”
Luo Xi complied with Lu Xiao Lan, he went with Xin'er towards the bath. The little girl just looked at Xin'er who was filling the bathtub with water, plus a fragrance.
“Sorry,”
Luo Xi was silent. “It's okay, no need to think about it anymore. I see, you must not be used to getting treated like this. You are used to being treated with .... ”
Xin'er fell silent, she did not continue her words anymore. Luo Xi looked up, there was a hint of shock on her petite face. His face is still flat.
“Seeing this girl reminds me of the late Queen,”
Xin'er looked at Luo Xi. This little girl made him think back to his first meeting with Queen Xia. I don't want to remember it, but I can't forget it either. The late Queen ....
Xin'er's Story
In a residence in the forest of death, a family lived happily. Although they lived on the border of a terrible forest, they did not feel afraid and lived peacefully. That was about the time the girl was 5 years old.
A little girl ran up to her father carrying a doll made of straw. “Dad, look at the straw doll I made! Nice, right?”
Shortly after showing the results of his work, suddenly his straw doll bond was released which made the rapids scattered. Little Xin'er who saw him immediately cried. Though he had tried hard to make her to show off in front of his father.
Xin'er whined with tears flowing profusely and soaked her puffer cheeks. “Huwaa, my straw doll is broken!”
The man beside her smiled and rubbed the head of Xin'er, “Alright, will Dad fix.”
“Wah, it's done. Even better than mine,”
Xin'er took the straw doll from her father's hand with a sparkling face. There was no longer a trace of sadness on her petite face, there was only a sweet smile engraved on her face.
“What are you doing?”
A woman approached them. Xin'er turned to find her mother approaching them. His mother smiled at her son and stroked his head.
“Son, can you play somewhere else first? I'd like to talk to Dad for a minute,”
Xin'er fell silent and looked at her mother, then turned to look at her father. It seems like they are going to talk about something serious. Xin'er nodded and immediately ran a little to another place. However, he was actually just hiding behind a tree.
His mother was still staring in the direction Xin'er left. When she was sure the boy was gone, the woman then looked at her husband with a lethargic face and sighed.
The man approached his wife and held her shoulder, “What's up?”
The woman held her husband's hand tightly, as if this was the last time they met. She looked at her husband and looked down.
“There is a letter from the Emperor. Looks like he wants you to go to the border. But ... ” he said softly.
The man sighed, the letter of the Emperor has now arrived. Not knowing what the Emperor was going to command, but seeing his wife's anxious expression, he felt so too.
The man patted his wife's shoulder gently, “I'll talk to the Emperor to assign someone else. But, if he doesn't approve it—”
The woman immediately lowered her husband's hand and grasped it tightly. The man felt a slight chill as there was water dripping down his hand. His wife looked down while sobbing. She cried.
