"what happened again?"

Qin Suiyou held the person who had buried their head in his arms and asked in a calm tone.

Seeing that he wouldn't speak to anyone, Qin Suiyou pulled him out.

"Shuohan, he's teasing you again. I'll make him apologize to you."

During this period, Lu Xi kept saying that he wanted to stay away from Shuo Han to avoid losing his head, but at the same time he would provoke him from time to time. Sometimes he would deliberately shake the tree trunk and run away when Shuo Han passed by the tree with the leaves still wet from the rain. Other times he would use some tricks to steal Shuo Han's waist token and put it in a place that was easy to find.

"no need to say sorry."

"Ok?"

Qin Suiyou looked at Shuo Han with a puzzled expression, then shifted his gaze to Lu Xi, who was standing to the side pretending to be a quail.

Shuo Han replied first: "I misunderstood. It's not Lu Xi's fault. I'll go out and check the defenses. Please go ahead, Lord."

After saying this, Shuo Han clasped his hands in farewell and left the ward.

Qin Suiyou sat down familiarly, pointed to the seat next to him, and gestured for Lu Xi to sit down.

"Tell me, what happened?"

Lu Xi sat up straight, looking like a wronged little wife, and briefly told Qin Sui what had just happened.

He was too embarrassed to go into too much detail, otherwise it would be too shameful.

but……

"Shuohan saw you covering your head and mistakenly thought your injury had flared up, so the two of you got into a little scuffle. You didn't think he wanted to kill you while you were covering your head, did you?"

Qin Suiyou was quite familiar with Lu Xi's amazing and boundless imagination, so he immediately saw through the trick. However, he glanced at the door with an inscrutable expression and slightly changed his words.

"of course not!"

Lu Xi retorted with great confidence, after all, that wasn't what he really thought; he was worried about his beautiful and majestic antlers!

Qin Suiyou naturally knew that wasn't the case, and then he said earnestly, "It's because the cold of the northern wind is usually too harsh that we Lu Xi are so afraid of it. Otherwise, we could still get along well, right?"

"That's it."

Lu Xi nodded repeatedly in affirmation, but then realized that this made her seem timid, so she began to refute him with little confidence.

"It's not that I'm afraid of him, it's that I'm worried I won't be able to control my strength when I attack and I'll hurt him, okay? That would definitely cause a lot of trouble..."

He made up a bunch of excuses, and seeing that Qin Suiyou was staring at Beitang Yan and ignoring him, he said with dissatisfaction, "What are you looking at?"

"He."

Lu Xi rolled her eyes inelegantly and said, "I'm not blind. I'm asking why you keep staring at people like that."

Qin Suiyou then put on an expression that said, "How come you don't even know this?" and said, "He's good-looking. Looking at him more can relieve fatigue."

"Ouch!"

Lu Xi exclaimed in disbelief, "I've never seen anything like this before! I can't believe I've heard such a face-obsessed person say this."

Qin Suiyou blinked and said, "Food and sex are human nature. I'm not a god without desires, so this is normal."

"cut."

Lu Xi scoffed and said, "Food and sex are not just human nature. Some gods may appear to be without desires, but who knows how much they fantasize about their sweethearts."

"Sigh~ Forget it, I can't expose any more of their dirty secrets, or I'll suffer the consequences."

Qin Suiyou took out a dropper filled with medicine and dripped it onto Beitang Yan's lips. The medicine flowed into his mouth through the gap between his lips.

“You can’t control your mouth any longer. If you really don’t get the good things to eat, you’ll have to eat hundreds of pounds of bad things.”

Lu Xi glanced around, pretending not to hear, but she did notice Qin Suiyou putting something into Beitang Yan's mouth, so she subconsciously asked curiously, "What did you give him to drink?"

However, Qin Suiyou said, "You can't hear me, can you?"

Lu Xi stared wide-eyed: "It's not like I can't see!"

"See, now you've heard what I said."

Defeated, Lu Xi clenched his fist and punched his leg twice.

Seeing this, Qin Suiyou asked, "What, you want to fight me?"

Lu Xi stared at Qin Suiyou with resentment and said, "Are you possessed by something, or is some demon or monster disguised as you to try and deceive my darling?"

What treasures do you have that are worth being scammed out of?

"You."

Qin Suiyou was speechless.

"You're so slick."

"That's love too, tiger, oil~"

Lu Xi raised both hands above her head, making a big heart shape, then shrank it to her chest by bending her fingers, and finally flipped them over, turning her thumbs and index fingers into even smaller hearts, which she then presented to Qin Suiyou.

As a result, Qin Suiyou ruthlessly separated the two little hearts.

"Brother, house, um, get out."

But Lu Xi was not discouraged.

"Want to roll into your arms?"

He exaggeratedly raised both arms to his sides and then hugged himself. (He didn't dare hug Qin Suiyou.)

"Or will it just roll into your heart?"

She pulled away the hand that was around her shoulder, and then made a heart shape in front of her chest that was similar to the small heart shape from before, but made up of two bent thumbs, and even winked her round and watery deer eyes playfully.

Qin Suiyou carefully put away the dropper.

"The north is cold."

Lu Xi immediately withdrew his hand and sat up straight, looking at Qin Suiyou with blaming eyes for his lack of martial ethics.

Shuo Han was standing not far from the door. As soon as he heard Qin Suiyou call out, he turned around and entered the door in two steps.

"The Righteous One".

Qin Suiyou stood up.

"I'm going back now. Thank you for your night watch. If anything happens, come find me."

"Yes, I will send men to escort the Lord back."

Qin Suiyou shook his head and refused: "No need, it was just a short while, I just got here by myself."

Shuo Han didn't persist any longer.

"Please take care, Your Excellency."

Qin Suiyou walked to the door, then seemed to suddenly remember something. He turned to look at Lu Xi, but said nothing, only giving him a wink with a slight smile.

Qin Suiyou: Ding, take care.

Lu Xi: You just abandoned me like that? You scumbag!

Shuo Han slowly walked over and sat down opposite Lu Xi.

"I'm sorry, I was in a hurry and misunderstood."

Lu Xi waved his hand with a wry smile.

"No need, no need. It was my own behavior that caused you to misunderstand. There's no need for you to apologize."

Shuo Han nodded and said nothing more. His lowered eyes, illuminated by the candlelight, made him seem less cold.

It's like the greenery gradually emerging after the glacier begins to melt; even if it's just a few shadows visible through the ice, it's enough to captivate the viewer.

Is there something on my face?

"what?"

Lu Xi suddenly came to her senses.

"Oh, no, no, I was just spacing out, spacing out."

Slightly uncomfortable, Lu Xi inwardly berated himself: "I've seen it all, how could I be so easily seduced by beauty? I was even staring at her so intently, aren't I afraid of getting my head chopped off?!"

Before he could continue his self-reflection, Shuo Han said, "You must be tired. Go and rest in the side room."

Lu Xi thought these words sounded like heavenly music, but still remained polite.

"That won't do, but since you're being so polite, I can't refuse. How about this, you keep track of the time, we'll set a schedule for taking turns to rest, and you can come and call me when it's time to take your place."

Lu Xi thought this method was excellent. It would save her from staying up all night and also prevent her from constantly facing the seemingly pleasing but still expressionless iceberg. It was a win-win situation.

To everyone's surprise, Shuo Han said, "No need, you can rest assured. I will have other guards take turns on duty."

He thought Shuo Han's "no" meant he was rejecting his wonderful suggestion, but it turned out to be an even greater benefit for himself.

After Lu Xi happily said "I love you," he ran off to the side room without looking back, so he didn't see the wonderful expression on Shuo Han's face after hearing him say "I love you."
