Tomb Raider: What kind of heroine is she?

"Dad??"

Qi Tiezui stood up with a suspicious look on his face, and he lowered his voice unconsciously and repeated the two words softly. He blinked, and before he could wrap his mind around it, he heard Zhang Xingxing beside him respond happily: "Hey!" The response was loud and clear.

Qi Tiezui was stunned at first, then he seemed to understand something, and his face showed a helpless expression. He was Qi Tiezui, who had traveled all over the country for so many years and had seen all kinds of scenes, but today he was teased by a little kid. However, looking at Zhang Xingxing's smug and eccentric look, Qi Tiezui found it a little funny.

"Where do you, a young girl, learn all this nonsense every day?"

Hearing this, the young man also quietly turned his head and nodded. Zhang Xingxing was stunned for a moment, but soon came to her senses and showed a sly smile on her face. She slowly stretched out a slender finger, gently shook it in the air, and said with a smile: "Hey, haven't you heard a saying, taking advantage of others is not gender-specific~"

Qi Tiezui's eyes slowly moved along the slender and white finger. His mind involuntarily emerged the scene where Zhang Xingxing grabbed his hand without hesitation after he got into trouble, as well as the scene when he was unconscious just now. At that time, his consciousness was unclear, but he could vaguely feel a gentle touch on his cheek, as gentle and warm as the breeze blowing across the lake. Imagining Zhang Xingxing's gentle treatment of him, his heart silently skipped a beat.

He had figured out Zhang Xingxing. Her gentleness was always hidden behind her back. In front of others, she was used to using jokes to cover up her true thoughts. But what he didn't understand was that, in theory, the formation of a person's personality often depends on many factors, such as his own factors and the environment he lives in.

But it seemed that her behavior logic was not like that of a child raised in a large family with strict rules. Unfortunately, after thinking about it, he still couldn't find a definite answer.

"I can never repay you for saving my life. Thank you for holding my hand the first time. You... forget it." Just as his eyes met Zhang Xingxing's bright eyes, the words that were about to come out of his mouth only trembled slightly a few times, and finally he chose to swallow the unfinished words back into his stomach.

Zhang Xingxing waved her hand casually and rubbed her fingers suggestively. "It's all small stuff. If you have any good treasures, just bring them out and give them to me. I'm not picky."

Seeing Zhang Xingxing's eyes shining with greed, Qi Tiezui couldn't help but laugh and said, "Okay, anyway, thank you for saving me at all costs. Not only did you not abandon me when I was unconscious, you also took care of me..."

At first, Zhang Xingxing nodded excitedly, but the more she listened, the more she felt something was wrong. She looked at Qi Tiezui, then at the boy, and quietly gestured to him, wondering if he was talking about you.

The troublesome young man shook his head and was about to say he didn't know. At this moment, he suddenly felt a line of sight coming from Qi Tiezui and falling on Zhang Xingxing. The young man's heart moved, and he followed the line of sight and met Qi Tiezui's eyes. At that moment, he seemed to understand something. So the young man nodded again, indicating that Zhang Xingxing was indeed as she thought.

Zhang Xingxing was instantly depressed after getting the answer. Alas, the thank you gift must be half less. So, he said listlessly: "Zuizui, you misunderstood. It's not me who takes care of you, it's him."

Following Zhang Xingxing's finger, Qi Tiezui saw the expressionless boy, who was staring at him like an emotionless humanoid killing weapon. Under the boy's gaze, his heart dropped to the ground.

Qi Tiezui, who was always eloquent, could only say dryly in the end: "Well, um...thank you." As soon as the words came out of his mouth, even he felt that they were too pale and weak, so he quickly added: "If you go out later, come to the incense hall to find me." After saying this, Qi Tiezui secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The young man nodded casually without paying attention to Qi Tiezui's complicated feelings, then walked to Zhang Xingxing's side, stood still, and whispered, "I'll give you mine."

Zhang Xingxing immediately regained all his strength and skills, grabbed the young man's hand, stamped it and said, "It's a deal!"

Qi Tiezui: He was a person who was bleeding heavily and was finally being used as a gift to Buddha?

Then, Zhang Xingxing looked at Qi Tiezui, who had almost recovered his energy, and said, "Let's go. We can't be trapped here forever. We should find a way out as soon as possible."

After hearing what Zhang Xingxing said, the two nodded in agreement. Then, they began to move, carefully exploring the surrounding environment.
