Cannon fodder and female supporting role, a match made in heaven

What did he just say? He likes her?

Shen Zhaozhao didn't know what to say. She hadn't thought about it when she asked this question just now. She just wanted to see if he would continue to choose not to answer.

Unexpectedly, she made things worse and now she is a little at a loss. But after the panic, she actually felt a little indescribable joy in her heart.

She cast her eyes towards the snakes scurrying around, blushing and asking another question: "Did you deliberately lead the snake to my feet?"

Chu Yu turned his head slightly and glanced at her: "Yes, you have asked me five questions."

Yeah, it was discovered.

Shen Zhaozhao felt guilty when he looked at her, and said in a muffled voice: "Hey, don't be so stingy. At most, I will tell you a secret directly."

She waved to Chu Yu, asking him to come closer.

Shen Zhaozhao curled up his palms, placed one end on the corner of his mouth and the other on Chu Yu's ear.

Her tone was like a soft and beautiful little song, the notes flowed out of her mouth word by word, caressing his heartstrings: "What a coincidence, me too."

Her heart was beating rapidly and loudly, telling of her throbbing.

If you like someone, you should say it boldly. She was indeed moved.

Chu Yu's dark eyes froze for a moment, and a tiny light flashed in them. His voice trembled: "Do you like... me?"

His heart didn't tremble violently, but it stopped for a moment. He put Shen Zhaozhao down, lifted her chin and asked her to look directly at him, and said seriously: "If you like me too, can you avoid too much contact with other people in the future? Not even with Yu Miaoyi."

The Demon Lord once told him that if you want something, you must hold it firmly in your hand, and he thought that was right.

Just like the yellow warbler, it was clearly his pet, but in the end it flew into the arms of someone else.

Of course, Huang Ying was dead, strangled to death by his own hands.

Since it is his property, how can it be exposed to other people?

Facing the burning gaze of the person in front of him, Shen Zhaozhao suddenly felt that a dangerous aura began to emanate from him.

Is it too late to regret now?

"Uh, no, I'm a human being, I have to have normal social interactions."

She pushed his hand away, then stood on tiptoe and kissed his chin, pretending to be distressed. "Alas, the innocent and harmless you are more likable. Let's go! They are waiting."

Sure enough, the uncomfortable feeling of oppression disappeared.

Shen Zhaozhao patted Chu Yu on the chest, put his hands behind his back, and turned away like an old man.

One day, she must find out what Chu Yu is doing in Qingwei Sect. How big of a villain can he be?

Chu Yu looked at the girl in front of him pretending to be deep and remained silent.

He was a little confused, did she like him? Or did she just like his fake... fake appearance?

"Zhao Zhao, come quickly!" Yu Miaoyi waved to Shen Zhaozhao not far away. Seeing that they had not followed for a long time, she ran over to look for them.

"Hey, coming right up!" Shen Zhaozhao lifted her skirt and flew away like a little butterfly.

Seeing Chu Yu still standing there, looking at her with his dark eyes, she ran back and pulled his hand up: "Come on, what are you doing?"

*

There are towering mountains behind Zhangjia Village and winding paths in front.

After they walked through a bamboo forest, they saw the entrance to the village.

The whole village was shrouded in a thick atmosphere of resentment, and no one was seen on the streets even in broad daylight.

Everyone looked at each other and followed Zhang Taoer forward with some caution.

Xie Yanshu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he whispered a few words to Yu Miaoyi, asking her to follow closely and not to stay too far away from him.

Yu Miaoyi nodded, gently pulled his sleeve, and then said something to Xie Yanshu, making him laugh.

Shen Zhaozhao followed Zhang Taoer, sniffing left and right. She always felt that there seemed to be a hint of evil in the resentment.

A pair of cold big hands squeezed between her fingers and clasped her fingers tightly, making her relax for a moment.

Shen Zhaozhao raised her sparkling eyes and met Chu Yu's gaze. Their eyes intertwined and the air felt somewhat ambiguous.

At this time, Zhang Taoer looked back at them, fixed her eyes on their clasped fingers, smiled slightly, and turned her head away again.

Shen Zhaozhao felt inexplicably uneasy when she looked at him. After thinking for a while, she covered their hands with her wide sleeves.

Her fingers tightened, and she felt that Chu Yu seemed a little unhappy. She wrinkled her small nose and said, "It feels weird to be stared at. Let's keep a low profile."

Chu Yu relaxed his strength, did not comment, and said slowly: "You are trying to cover up but it only makes things more obvious."

As she was speaking, Zhang Taoer had already stopped in front of a thatched hut. She knocked on the door, but no one responded.

As if she remembered something, she knocked on the door again and called softly, "Mom, it's me, Tao'er, open the door quickly."

After a while, the sound of hurried running approached, and a fat little boy opened the door.

When he saw Zhang Taoer, he called out uncertainly, "Sister?"

Zhang Taoer nodded, her eyes moist.

The little boy closed the door and ran back to the house like a 100-meter sprint: "Mom, the money-loser is back."

Does a four or five-year-old child understand what losing money means?

Shen Zhaozhao felt that this child was not very polite. Sure enough, Zhang Taoer started to cry when she heard this name.

Less than two seconds later, there was another burst of hurried footsteps, and a woman wearing a floral headscarf opened the door.

She waved the basin in her hand into the air, splashing water all over Zhang Taoer, and said angrily, "Zhang Taoer, a daughter who is married off is like water spilled. Why do you come back instead of being a good concubine?"

Zhang Tao'er was in a state of disgrace, hugging her arms and trembling, "Mom, that Master Ma is dead, and his whole family are monsters."

Zhang Taoer's mother didn't care about her daughter's words at all. She just picked up the broom from behind the door and hit Zhang Taoer: "Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. Even if it's a monster, you're married."

Xie Yanshu couldn't bear it anymore, so he pulled Zhang Taoer behind him and faced her mother, the shrew-like woman.

He had received a good education since childhood, and he was still gentle when facing Zhang Taoer's mother: "Miss Zhang just came back, why did you hit her?"

"I'm teaching my daughter a lesson, why do you have to meddle in her business?" Zhang Tao'er's mother squinted at him and hit him with a broom. "Zhang Tao'er, you've grown up and dared to bring a man back. Aren't you afraid of being burned to death?"

Xie Yanshu was unwilling to use magic on these ordinary people and was hit by several brooms.

Shen Zhaozhao rolled up his sleeves and prepared to go over to help, but was stopped by Chu Yu: "What does it have to do with you? You are not allowed to go."

Shen Zhaozhao just felt that he was a little puzzled: "Senior brother has been beaten, I will go to help."

"It's not him who's in pain." Chu Yu's eyes were cold. After looking to the side, he smiled again, "The princess is gone, there's no need for you to be her savior."

Shen Zhaozhao turned her head and saw that Yu Miaoyi was already holding a thick wooden stick and confronting Zhang Taoer's mother.

Gu Qianmeng stood aside and remained indifferent.

Yes, Gu Qianmeng is gentle and dignified. She would never quarrel with Zhang Taoer's mother like Yu Miaoyi.

Over such a long time, she has been closer to Yu Miaoyi than to Gu Qianmeng.

On the one hand, when she faced Gu Qianmeng, she would always think of the situation when she was against her in her previous life, and she really didn't want to think about that unpleasant time again.

Moreover, she couldn't figure out Gu Qianmeng. There was always something unspeakable wrong when they were getting along with each other.

Another reason was that she and Yu Miaoyi had similar personalities and interests, and they hit it off right away.

When the neighbors heard the quarrel, they all leaned out to watch the fun, staring at Zhang Taoer with gleaming eyes.

A woman bared her yellow teeth and said with a smile: "Tao girl, you are back. Are you feeling comfortable being your aunt?"

Zhang Tao'er's expression changed immediately. She rushed forward and knelt in front of her mother. She raised her voice and said hurriedly, "Mother, I have never served Master Ma. I am innocent."

At this time, a man in cloth pushed the door open from behind the woman, with a look of joy on his face: "Tao'er, is what you just said true?"

Zhang Taoer nodded rapidly, "Of course it's true. I'm not a fickle woman, Brother Muyi, please believe me. If you don't believe me, you can check it out."

Zhang Taoer tried her best to prove her innocence to the villagers, and told Gu Qianmeng to wait a moment.

Zhang Tao'er's mother didn't get a good response from Yu Miaoyi. She blew her nose and glared at her, then threw away the broom and pulled Zhang Tao'er straight into the house. After a while, she went out and invited a few women into the house.

Since Zhang Taoer asked them to stay for a while, Xie Yanshu and others couldn't leave now. They had to stand at the door and accept the villagers' stares.

Seeing that Xie Yanshu and a few other strangers seemed a little at a loss, Zhang Muyi came over and started chatting with them.
