I fell through the tunnel and brought my family to live a good life

"Why do you like me?" Shen Xiao asked this question softly under the moonlight. He felt his heartbeat speeding up, and every beat echoed in his chest like a drum, as if it was about to jump out of it. Although the temperature at night was a little low and a little chilly, his cheeks were slightly warm in the quiet night.

"Because you are beautiful." Xu Congyi's voice was clear and direct, without a trace of hesitation.

Shen Xiao was stunned when he heard this answer, and said softly: "I just hope that you like me not only because of my appearance."

Xu Congyi looked at Shen Xiao's slightly shy appearance, raised his eyebrows, and did not directly answer his question. Instead, he took Shen Xiao's hand and said, "Let's go, Brother Shen Xiao, it's a bit cold here, let's go back to my space."

Shen Xiao was gently pulled by Xu Congyi, and followed her obediently back to the warm little space. After entering, Xu Congyi quickly took off her cloak and skillfully hung it on the hanger at the entrance. Then she changed into a pair of furry slippers, which looked warm and comfortable. Shen Xiao noticed that Xu Congyi had already prepared a pair of the same furry slippers for him in advance, quietly placed next to the shoe cabinet, waiting for his arrival.

Shen Xiao felt a warm current surge in his heart. He imitated Xu Congyi's movements, took off his coat, and put on the pair of soft slippers. Suddenly, a warmth spread from the soles of his feet to his whole body, dispelling the chill of the night.

Xu Congyi walked into the kitchen and got two cups of hot water for the two of them. She held the cup, blew gently, and then drank a sip of water carefully. The hot water slid down her throat, warming her stomach and her whole body.

Shen Xiao's eyes followed Xu Congyi unconsciously. Even when Xu Congyi handed him the water, his eyes did not leave her.

The two sat side by side on the spacious sofa, so close that they could almost feel each other's breathing. Xu Congyi gently leaned on Shen Xiao's shoulder. This action reminded her of the last time on the bumpy ox cart, when she fell asleep due to exhaustion. Now, she was awake. Shen Xiao felt Xu Congyi's breath. Her proximity made his cheeks flush, and his heartbeat seemed to speed up a bit. He secretly glanced at Xu Congyi, but unexpectedly, his eyes met hers. Xu Congyi just smiled at him, as if he could see through all his emotions.

Xu Congyi spoke softly, her voice gentle and warm: "Brother Shen Xiao, do you still remember the first time we met? At that small noodle stall." She planned to start from their first meeting and slowly tell the story between them.

Shen Xiao nodded and smiled as he recalled: "Of course I remember, you were so thin and small at that time, like a little monkey. I still remember that I called you little sister, and you asked me who I was calling." He recalled the first time he met Xu Congyi, she had a small appetite and couldn't finish a bowl of noodles. At that time, Xu Congyi refused to eat because of her previous illness, and her nutrition was not enough. Although she was thirteen years old, she looked like a ten-year-old child.

Xu Congyi also laughed, and she continued, "When I first saw you, I thought, wow, you're so handsome! I was simply mesmerized by your handsome appearance, so I couldn't help but look at you a few more times."

Shen Xiao felt a little embarrassed by her compliments. He scratched his head and continued to recall: "The second time I saw you was when you treated my grandfather. At that time, my grandfather was sick and didn't get better. I was very worried. I didn't expect you to treat illnesses and get so many medicines for my grandfather."

Xu Congyi also laughed, and she added: "Yes, I still remember that you knelt down in front of me at once, which scared me. I also thought to myself, you are not afraid that the medicine I gave you is poisonous."

Shen Xiao scratched his head and said awkwardly, "I don't know why at that time. We only met for the second time, but I trusted you more. Your eyes were so firm that I felt that you were a trustworthy person."

Xu Congyi sighed and said, "This must be our destiny. It just so happened that I learned medical skills from the gods when I was in heaven, and now I can use them. I could help Grandpa Shen before, and now I can help you." She felt that all this was more and more magical, but she was not ready to say that she was from another world.

"Later, your family held a banquet, and Grandpa and I went there. At that time, you had become very different from the beginning. You had become a beautiful girl. That day, you gave Grandpa a recipe for noodle soup, which made our family live a good life. In any way, you are my benefactor..."

"When I met you at Tang's Pastry, I was very surprised. I thought this girl was amazing. She dared to come here alone to discuss business. Later, I ate your popcorn, which was really delicious. I have never tasted it in my life!"

"That time, it was all thanks to you for speaking up for me." Xu Congyi recalled that Tang Wenhao was still very serious at that time, and fortunately Shen Xiao was by her side.

……

Originally it was Xu Congyi who was talking, and then slowly it became Shen Xiao who was talking. The two then discovered that the moments when they were attracted to each other were surprisingly similar.

Of course, Xu Congyi was a little earlier in judging people by their appearance.
