Maybe Jiang Xuxu's expression when looking at the mark was too weird, Chu Beihe's eyes were a little sharp, and he locked her tightly.

"What mark is this?"

"This..." Jiang Xuxu calmed down, her face returned to normal, she met Chu Beihe's gaze and explained without any guilt,

"This is a protective mark to keep you safe."

Jiang Xuxu said this without blushing, and she had no intention of telling him about her fiancé.

Chu Beihe only looked at her, a pair of black eyes seemed to have broken light, and they were all bright and clear.

"Oh."

He responded in a low voice, with a slightly raised tail note, as low and sweet as a cello, but with a deep meaning.

Jiang Xuxu was afraid that he would ask further questions, so she asked Chu Beihe how he knew him.

Chu Beihe only said,

"When I met her, she claimed to be a guest lecturer at Haishi Taoist College."

Seeing Jiang Xuxu's eyes moving slightly and opening her mouth as if to ask something, she didn't wait for her to speak and said directly,

"As for why we made friends, it involves my private matters and I can't tell you."

Jiang Xuxu pursed her lips, feeling that her words were being blocked.

But it’s not without gain.

Haishi Taoist College...

She said the name silently in her mind.

But there was something inexplicable in my heart.

The master never said that she was still a lecturer at the Taoist Academy...

But anyway, this is a clue.

Calculating carefully, today's harvest is not small.

I found the lightning strike wood left by the master, learned the clues about the master, and... got a fiancé.

Jiang Xuxu couldn't help but glance at Chu Beihe again.

The man in front of him was still surrounded by golden light, and his handsome features seemed to have a holy halo under the golden light. This was probably the look often mentioned on the Internet.

Unexpectedly, the eyebrows and eyes wrapped in this holy light revealed an indifferent coldness, giving people a feeling of being unapproachable.

But since the master could give Chu Beihe the lightning strike wood that he valued so much and put the peach wood mark on him, it shows that Chu Beihe himself must not be simple.

She even had a hunch that as long as she guarded this person, she could always wait until the master showed up.

As for the issue with her fiancé, Jiang Xuxu decided not to talk about it for the time being.

Let’s wait until we find the master.

Jiang Xuxu thanked Chu Beihe, carried the rice dumplings, and left the Chu family's villa with the lightning-struck peach wood.

Chu Beihe stood on the second floor and watched her walk away, his dark eyes calm and a little cool.

He raised his hand and looked at the mark on his palm again. Thinking of Jiang Xuxu's explanation just now, there was no emotion or anger on his face, only the faint arc of the corners of his lips with a trace of mockery.

"Protective mark?"

Ha, he is obviously lying.

……

Jiang Xuxu didn't know that his lie had been seen through by Mr. Chu. He quickly ran back to the Jiang family's villa with a rice dumpling in one hand and a lightning strike wood in the other.

In the Jiang family villa, everyone had been alarmed by the explosion just now, but they did not expect to see anyone when they entered Jiang Xuxu's room. Just when they were worried, they saw Jiang Xuxu coming back from outside in a hurry, wearing the same slippers he wore at home.

"Xuxu, where have you been? I just heard a loud noise in your room. Everyone was worried. Why did you run out?"

The second lady, Yao Lin, stepped forward, her voice full of anxiety and concern, her eyes carefully swept over her body, and then landed on the thing in her hand, with an incomprehensible expression.

"You even picked up a branch?"

Jiang Xuxu didn't get angry when she heard her say that the branch was just like ordinary wood in the eyes of a layman.

Just explain casually,

"I was just doing an air cannon experiment in the room and it accidentally failed."

The third lady, Xue Ningyu, happened to be at home today. After hearing this, she couldn't help but come forward to express her concern.

"Why are you still doing experiments in the room? This is too dangerous. Are you hurt?"

Jiang Xuxu shook his head, paused, and then added,

"I'll pay attention next time."

Xue Ningyu smiled at her, but heard Jiang Han next to her say dissatisfiedly,

"Are you doing experiments at home? Don't you know how dangerous it is to do experiments? What if something explodes? You are not the only one living in this house."

Although Jiang Han had restrained himself a lot since last time, it was rare to catch Jiang Xuxu making a mistake, and since Jiang Yucheng and Jiang Huai were not at home, he would naturally not be polite.

Jiang Xuxu turned her head when she heard this, but before she could speak, Jiang Su jumped out one step ahead of her.

"Isn't this okay? My sister has a sense of control over small things, how can she blow you up?"

Jiang Su's protective response was too obvious, which made Jiang Han so angry that his face turned ugly.

Ever since the accident that day, this brat has been chasing after Jiang Xuxu all day long as if he was a different person.

He didn't even pick Xue Xi up after he was discharged from the hospital. Yesterday, Xue Xi was indifferent to him when he talked to him. He didn't know if he had taken someone's Ecstasy.

Thinking of Xue Xi's sad expression at that time, Jiang Han's face became even darker.

"You said it's okay if it's okay? Can you guarantee it for her?"

After saying that, he turned around and faced Jiang Xuxu directly,

"Now that you have returned to the Jiang family, you can't just rely on your own happiness and not consider others."

What he said was just plain saying that she was selfish and uncultured.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Su stepped forward to challenge him again, but Jiang Xuxu raised his hand, and the charred dead branch directly stopped him.

She looked at Jiang Han by herself,

"You're right. There are so many people living in this family, and I can't just tell them to shut up just because I think they are too noisy."

Her tone was calm and not offensive at all, but Jiang Han's face darkened when he heard it.

"Who are you saying is noisy?!"

Jiang Su was not afraid of provoking anger at all, and cheerfully assisted, "Hey, whoever agrees will be the one to talk."

Jiang Han's face became even more ugly, and he took a step forward, looking like he was about to take action.

Seeing this, Yao Lin hurriedly stopped her, "Okay, we are all a family, why are we talking so rudely? Jiang Han, you are the same, please stop talking."

Xue Ningyu also brought her boy back and said, "Don't just make a fuss about it."

After all, there were two elders standing next to him. Jiang Han couldn't really do anything. He snorted coldly and turned around to leave. Unexpectedly, Jiang Xuxu stopped him.

"If I can prove that it won't affect the people in this villa, do you dare to make a bet with me?"

Jiang Han paused when he heard the sound and turned to look at Jiang Xuxu, his expression full of disdain.

"How do you prove it?"

Jiang Xuxu, "As long as you dare to respond, I will have a way to prove it."

Jiang Han immediately laughed and sneered, "Okay, what do you want to bet on?"

Jiang Xuxu's clear eyes lightly glanced at Jiang Han, and she smiled slightly.

"If I win, I don't want to hear your voice for the next week."

"Pfft." Jiang Su couldn't help laughing, and Jiang Han's face turned dark.

He felt that Jiang Xuxu was still scolding him for being noisy and telling him to shut up! .

"Okay, I'll bet with you! But it's up to me to decide whether it will affect you or not! If you lose, you won't be allowed to do anything I won't allow you to do in this house from now on."

Jiang Han thought that if he said this, Jiang Xuxu would definitely be afraid. After all, he had the final say in calculating the impact, which was equivalent to him being the referee.

Although the villa is well soundproofed, it doesn't mean that there is no movement when the door is closed. As long as she makes movement, he can always catch her.

Jiang Xuxu didn't even bother to raise her eyelids when she heard this, "Okay."

Jiang Han asked again, "Then how do you plan to prove it?"

Jiang Xuxu finally raised her eyes to look at him this time, and said in a clear voice, "You will know tonight."

After that, she didn't stay any longer and went upstairs directly carrying the rice dumplings and peach wood.

Jiang Han looked at her back and thought of when she just said "tonight", and somehow he felt a little fussy.

What can we do tonight?
