[Journey to the West] The male protagonist is under a lot of pressure

really.

Chai Xi remembered what she had done, and saw him salute jokingly, panicked, and wanted to push back the chair and stand up, but because she had put in a lot of effort just now, she couldn't do it now. Stand up as you wish.As a result, she had no choice but to nod, not knowing where to put her hands.

"Miss Chai, you don't have to be so flustered," said the person said to be Shu Zhe. He and Zhen Yuanzi looked at each other, and the expression still made Chai Xi feel a little uncertain, and Zhen Yuanzi stroked He stroked his beard, and there seemed to be a smile on his face, "I don't mean anything malicious - of course, Miss Chai should still have doubts about this. It's also my fault, I didn't make it clear at the time, Miss Chai Then it’s a matter of course.”

……what.

It's fine if he doesn't say anything, but if he said it, it would be like bringing to light the fact that Chai Xi had accepted his bag and hung it on a tree branch. Although the other two people present didn't mind much about it, Chai Xi Xi himself felt that although the initial suspicion was necessary in that situation, despite the good intentions of others... just changing anyone else would cause the other party's resentment, right?

However, this guy named Shu Zhe really didn't show any dissatisfaction with this.

But it happened that at this time, a Taoist boy whom Chaixi didn't know ran in from the door, and hurriedly whispered something to Zhen Yuanzi.Even though his voice was very low, he could still hear it with the hearing ability of several people present, but Zhen Yuanzi didn't shy away from it.In fact, that matter had nothing to do with Chai Xi, so she simply pretended not to hear it.

"There are still some things in the temple waiting for the poor Taoist to deal with," he said, and the somewhat meaningful eyes made Chai Xi have to think a lot about what Shu Zhe might say in the future, and Zhen Yuanzi looked relaxed, " Then pardon the poor, let's talk slowly first."

And then he just... really left.

Chai Xi stared straight at the door where Zhen Yuanzi left, and always felt that it would be better if he didn't leave, but once he left, it would be more embarrassing in the room.She unconsciously tapped the table with her fingertips, and when she was still thinking about how to break the silence and what to say to start the scene, she suddenly heard the person standing beside him let out a long breath, speaking in a way that was different from him. He sat down in a posture that didn't quite match his image.

Chai Xi: "..."

"Gee," he sighed complainingly, picking up the teapot and pouring himself a cup of tea, "it's good that he's gone. To tell you the truth, I don't even know what to say when he's here." What, the pressure is really too great, I don't know how I survived these few days in this Taoist temple."

Looking at Shu Zhe's appearance, she seemed to have the illusion that Zhen Yuanzi's kind performance when they stayed in Wuzhuang Temple was an illusion.

its not right!

However, it has to be said that Shu Zhe's performance has indeed shortened the distance between the two of them, and the tension just now has disappeared. Chai Xi asked in surprise, "What did Mr. Shu say?"

When she said this address, Shu Zhe immediately waved his hand: "Why are you being so polite with me? Miss Chai may not feel it. After all, you only spent a few days with him, let alone... forget it, anyway. Well, if he stays with him for another ten or a half years, it will be unbearable. For example, last time I—”

...She suddenly regretted asking that question.

Chai Xi listened blankly to Shu Zhe's bitterness about Zhen Yuanzi, and he didn't know whether those details really happened or he made up his own imagination at the time.But no matter what, one thing is always certain, not to mention the image of Shu Zhe heard from the king of the daughter country when he was in the Xiliang daughter country, she doubted whether it was the same as the appearance he showed when he first entered the door just now. Now the person who vomits bitterness is alone.

"This time I just passed by Longevity Hill by chance," he deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word "by chance", "and then I heard from him that you actually came here, so I stayed here for a few more days."

Seeing that the topic finally got back on track, Chai Xi blinked: "Young Master Shu—uh, you've heard of me?"

She still remembered that the king of Daughter Kingdom said that he had only met him a whole year ago, and a year ago, they were still far away from Xiliang Daughter Kingdom, maybe they were still on the border of Pingdingshan.

And why did Shu Zhe know that she didn't accept the kit, but hung it on the branch?

Could it be that he has some means to detect it?

Ah, right.

Along with the memories of what happened in Xiliang Nvguo at that time, Chaixi also remembered the words that the king of Daughter Country entrusted her with. She stared at Shu Zhe who was sitting opposite her at this moment, she just didn't know that she was as beautiful as a fairy Why on earth did the queen fall in love with him.

"Of course." Shu Zhe smiled slyly, "How could I never have heard of it? Some things have been spread far and wide."

Chai Xi: "..."

She regretted it even more than before. Why did she ask this question?

And looking at the current expression on the other party's face, and thinking that Shu Zhe and Zhen Yuanzi have known each other for a long time, Chai Xi suddenly had the urge to press his head on the table.

Fortunately she got herself under control.

"Well, in fact," Chai Xi took a deep breath, trying to change the subject, "Someone asked me to pass a message to you, and she told me before I left that if I could see you one day, I hope I send my regards to you on her behalf."

Hearing her words, Shu Zhe's expression finally became serious.He fell silent for a rare moment, and drank the tea in the teacup in one gulp, as if it was a strong drink enough to numb people's nerves.Chai Xi watched him quietly, and her mood was extremely complicated. She didn't know what Shu Zhe thought of the king of her daughter country. Feelings.

Although she was slandering in her heart, she didn't understand why the Queen was treating Shu Zhe... But she also understood that sometimes feelings always come on the spur of the moment, and it may be wiped out with a "snap" at any moment. spark.What's more, although she always felt that Shu Zhe was a bit unreliable, he was not flawed. As far as what he did back then, he was capable and enthusiastic...and he had a good face, and he was in the country of daughters.

That said, I suddenly felt that there was an explanation.

"That's it."

Finally, Shu Zhe stopped turning the teacup around on the table. His left elbow was resting on the wooden tabletop, and the fingers of his right hand were still resting on the rim of the teacup.Although the sitting posture is casual, it is completely different from the feeling just now. After a long time, he suddenly raised his head and smiled at Chaixi: "Some people are born to be wandering; Even if it is found, it is still a question of whether it can be kept.”

He was indeed smiling, but Chai Xi could clearly see a sense of loneliness from that smile, and couldn't help wondering whether what he said was really in line with his own inner thoughts.

However, whether it is true or not, she always has no reason and room to comment on other people's thoughts.

"Since that's the case, then I've brought it with me." Under the influence of Shu Zhe, she unconsciously picked up the teapot and poured herself a cup of tea. Longevity Mountain is originally a mountain full of aura, and Zhen Yuanzi as As a great immortal, the tea here is naturally of the highest quality, "Since I have stayed here until after I wake up, I think, is it possible that Mr. Shu has something to say to me?"

She always felt a little awkward, and finally used the honorific title.

"No."

Shu Zhe said very bluntly, and he even showed a smile.

"I just want to see who you really are."

Chai Xi didn't know how the emotion that was close to sympathy disappeared, just as she didn't know how she suppressed the urge to press his face against the teacup he kept turning around.

This, this person is so infuriating!

A thought involuntarily came to her mind: In fact, unlike what Shu Zhe said, the real hard work is the Great Immortal Zhenyuan who has known him for several years, maybe even decades or hundreds of years, right?

"Just kidding." Looking at the expression on Chai Xi's face, he pondered for a moment, and finally said seriously, "Actually, there is something I want to give to you."

As he spoke, he just scratched his hand in the void, Chai Xi blinked, not knowing what kind of trick he was doing, suddenly saw that there was indeed something extra in his hand.And when Shu Zhe spread his palms in front of her, this question was answered. Although it had been a long time and only met once, Chai Xi could still recognize him at a glance.

The patterns and textures on the silk and satin perfectly matched her memory, and there was no other answer. Isn't this the kit she got from the king of Daughter Country that day?

She subconsciously glanced at Shu Zhe, met his eyes beckoning her to take it quickly, and then picked it up.The touch in her hand reminded her that there was still only a thin page inside, which surprised Chai Xi.

"I still say that, I can open it when the right time comes." Shu Zhe said, "As for when the right time is, you will know when the time comes."

Chai Xi was silent, and clenched the kit in her hand. Unlike at that time, she was sure that the other party had no intention of harming her—especially when she learned that he and Zhen Yuanzi had known each other before. .

"I have a question to ask Mr. Shu," she was too puzzled, "You and I have never met before today, why do you help me with this? If it is only because of the truth and falsehood you have heard False rumors, or because we had intersected with the Great Immortal when we passed by here, why did it come to this?"

"Fate."

There was an unfathomable feeling in his smile, and then he changed the topic again: "However, someone once asked me to take care of you if I saw you. As for who that person is, I can't tell you yet." you."

This……

Before Chai Xi could speak in the future, Shu Zhe stood up from the chair, turned to her and said, "According to my feeling, within two days from today, your body should be almost recovered. Then you will be able to recover." Go find the guy you want to see, but, according to your speed, I'm afraid it will take a while to catch up."

It seemed that he even smiled gloatingly.

"Good luck."

Chai Xi: "..."
