It's not too much to say that a beauty is a little bit stronger

Even if Zhong Jiangyuan didn't ask Xiao Huai, he knew who the "he" in this question was referring to.

"He said he'd be waiting for you at Jinlemen. He'll tell your teacher about your lateness today."

Elder Zhong Jiangyuan honestly relayed the words to Xiao Huai.

Xiao Huai pursed his lips and rubbed his hair, "Yeah, I understand."

When Xiao Huai was about to leave, Zhong Jiangyuan stopped him: "Oh, by the way, he prepared these things for you."

Zhong Jiangyuan handed something similar to a lunch box to Xiao Huai.

Xiao Huai opened it and saw that there was indeed food prepared inside.

There are glutinous rice balls and many sweets.

Zhong Jiangyuan didn't know what was going on, but a smile appeared on his face. "Lu Yuanshi, that kid, is quite capable."

Xiao Huai took a bite, confused: "What?"

Zhong Jiangyuan raised his eyebrows, "You don't know?"

"I know." Xiao Huai still had glutinous rice balls in his mouth. "I know he's good at cooking."

Zhong Jiangyuan: “…”

Whatever you say is what it is.

Zhong Jiangyuan: "Indeed, he is quite good at cooking."

He nodded lightly.

What he originally wanted to say was that in this environment where food is relatively rare, Lu Yuanshi actually prepared so much food for you, probably...

Forget it, maybe he was overthinking it.

When leaving the Red Mansion, Xiao Huai met Chen Chong who was looking for clues nearby.

Chen Chong greeted Xiao Huai: "Hey, you finally woke up, brother."

Xiao Huai glanced at him and continued to walk out. Chen Chong said behind him:

"This time, Meimei and I will stand by your side. No matter what you decide to do in the end, you saved our lives, and we will do our best to help you."

Chen Chong often slacks off in the game. After all, survival is not difficult for him.

However, when he was rescued, his attitude changed.

He has to do something to repay the favor.

Xiao Huai stopped and glanced at Chen Chong. The voice was not loud, but it just happened to reach his ears.

"come on."

After hearing this, Chen Chong raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said, "Okay."

After Xiao Huai left, Jiang Wenmei, who was on the second floor, looked at Chen Chong, who was still in a daze, and asked, "What are you daydreaming about?"

Chen Chong muttered to herself, "I'm thinking, if only Xiao Huai were a girl, I would definitely pursue her."

After saying this, Chen Chong felt for some reason that the entire Red Mansion had become quiet.

There seemed to be a cold blade hidden in the eyes of Zhong Jiangyuan and Shen Yun, while Jiang Wenmei looked at Chen Chong as if she was a fool.

"It's so stupid." She said and turned to look for other clues.

Could it be that he didn't see Lu Yuan's eyes?

Girls' intuition about these things is much more accurate than men's.

She would never forget the look in Lu Yuanshi's eyes when he looked at Xiao Huaishi.

It seemed like four words were written.

"He's mine."

·Jinlemen·

Huo Dieyi was discussing some details of the script written by Xiao Huai with the actors on the stage. She was so focused that she didn't notice Xiao Huai coming over.

A glance out of the corner of his eye scared Huo Dieyi.

"You're here." Huo Dieyi turned and looked at Xiao Huai.

Xiao Huai nodded: "Sorry, I didn't get up this morning."

There were a few sticky hairs on Xiao Huai's head, and Huo Dieyi of course noticed it. For some reason, the corners of her mouth curled up.

After all, she had heard an interesting story not long ago.

Several actors noticed Lu Yuan coming from the direction of Honggongguan on their way to work.

There is an unwritten rule in the Red Mansion that only couples can stay in the same room.

Therefore, the beds in the king-size rooms at Hong Mansion are surprisingly large, while those in ordinary single rooms are relatively normal.

When Lu Yuanshi came over, he said with a smile: "Xiao Huai was too tired last night and slept in."

Huo Dieyi wasn't a particularly strict teacher, so she asked jokingly:

"How do you know? Are you in the same bed?"

It was originally just a joke, but Lu Yuanshi answered without hesitation:

"Ah."

"Ah? You...are you guys in that kind of relationship? Ahem, ahem, it's nothing, okay, okay, I get it."

Huo Dieyi immediately stopped asking questions. She had experienced so many things and had long since learned what respect and blessing meant.

But she couldn't help thinking that Xiao Huai was too tired at night and was still sleeping in.

Damn, her face suddenly turned red. What was she thinking about?

Even now that Xiao Huai is back, she is still thinking about this matter.

Xiao Huai just looked at Huo Dieyi's head as if steam was coming out, and his face turned red.

"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Huai asked softly.

Huo Dieyi: "Ah! It's nothing, I'm fine. By the way, are you okay?"

Xiao Huai frowned slightly. What could have happened to him? He just killed a few rubber dolls and was a little tired from running for his life, so he overslept.

"Did Lu Yuanshi say something weird to you?" Xiao Huai whispered.

Huo Dieyi quickly shook her head: "No! Nothing, he just said you were sleeping in."

"Oh." He was sensible and didn't exaggerate.

Xiao Huai and Lu Yuanshi were completely unaware of the unwritten rules behind the Red Mansion, and had unknowingly been classified as another group of people by Huo Dieyi.

Lu Yuanshi walked forward from the backstage and rested his chin on Xiao Huai's back: "You're finally here. Rehearsals without you are so boring."

"Then you can wake me up." Xiao Huai took a step forward and turned to look at Lu Yuanshi.

At this time, Huo Dieyi automatically kept a distance from the two of them, and asked other actors to go somewhere else to discuss the script.

It would be better not to disturb them both.

Lu Yuanshi suddenly moved closer to Xiao Huai, his eyes fixed on his lips. Xiao Huai was slightly stunned, and his heartbeat inexplicably accelerated. When their eyes met, he realized that there was an obvious smile in his eyes. The corners of his mouth were slightly curled up, and when he stretched out his hand as if to touch him, Xiao Huai subconsciously held his breath.

Lu Yuanshi's hand brushed across his earlobe and finally moved up to the end of his curled hair.

Xiao Huai held his breath for a long time before slowly exhaling.

What's wrong with him...why is he holding his breath for no apparent reason?

Xiao Huai raised his eyes and was about to grab Lu Yuan's restless hand when he saw his bright smile.

It was like thousands of lights appearing in the inky eyes, like stars suddenly appearing, turning into countless meteors falling on the earth. For a moment, everything was silent, and only the sound of beating heart remained.

My heart couldn't stop beating wildly anymore.

Xiao Huai's pupils dilated slightly and he turned his head immediately.

The hair seemed to still retain the warmth of Lu Yuanshi's palm, lingering around and turning into silk threads that outlined and wrapped around the heart.

From Lu Yuanshi's angle, he could see Xiao Huai's trembling eyelashes when he looked at his profile, and the glances he would give her from time to time.

He slowly approached Xiao Huai, leaned over and whispered in his ear:

"The same words - I can't bear it."

I couldn't bear to wake Xiao Huai up.

From the beginning, and still is.
