Chapter 67 See Thousand Riders Again
After Qianqi returned to Dongyao, his father Amber Dragon King personally arranged to recuperate his body with demonism and food therapy. The previous loss of dragon blood and the injuries suffered in the battle were not only harmless. Not only was his body stronger than before, but his shoulders seemed to be wider.
During the recuperation period, I discussed the gains and experience along the way with my father, and studied the secrets to improve my magic and fighting skills. When I was in good health, I begged my father to be his opponent and compete with him. Both physically and mentally, I benefited a lot.
In fact, he had long wanted to return to Wangcheng Yongchuan as soon as possible. When he couldn't see the days of summer and autumn, he always felt that he was in a trance. But looking at his father who became tougher because of his return, and his father's unconcealed disappointment every time he slightly mentioned his plan to leave, his determination was shaken again. In the past, he would not have been able to care so much and let his own nature escape from his father's control again. But after experiencing the crisis of the Four Pillars of Gods last year, he overcame many hardships with his companions along the way, and finally became a hero who saved the demon world. He also grew up and could better understand his father's mood.
It's just the only one who hasn't grown up. It should be his emotional intelligence! As soon as the news of Ouyang Xiao Leng's assassination reached Dong Yao, he became restless. As his father said, such a thing happened as soon as the third generation of demon king fox ascended the throne. Wang Cheng must have fallen into chaos. Although he was still a little unconvinced about Ouyang Xiao Leng, he was also a partner all the way. What's so what? It won't be sad. But what reassured him was Xia Qiu. He knew that Ouyang Xiao was seriously injured, and the saddest part must be her. However, with her habitual and stubborn character, would she hide in the corner alone and shed tears silently? Thinking of this, he became unable to calm down and instantly strengthened his determination to rush back to Wangcheng.
As soon as he entered the royal city, he visited Ouyang Xiao Leng, and met Ouyang Hongye and Ouyang Yong. He insisted on going to the world to find Xia Qiu. I thought that Xia Qiu would assist Dong Muya in Ouyang Ancient House as Ouyang Hongye said, but he couldn't find her when he arrived at Ouyang Ancient House. Only Dong Muya was busy in the underground database. As soon as I asked her, she knew that Xia Qiu planned to go to the shopping street with her friends today, so she begged that Dong Muya was really unable to bring him.
It was not until he held Xia Qiu in his arms that his hanging heart fell to the ground with the real feeling of hug. Her smile when she was with her friends was so dazzling, better than the neon in the world. No matter how many times she struggled in his arms, he still insisted on not loosening his hands.
"Cough, okay, Qianqi, there are other people. It's impolite for you to do this!" Dong Muya reminded on the side.
Hearing what she said, Qianqi let go of Xia Qiu. The four people looked at each other in con's face and were embarrassed for a while. Dong Muya remembered the round field, so she explained to Liu Lingmei, "This is my cousin from Shanghai. My name is Qian Qi. We met Xia Qiu together before!"
"Oh, I've never heard of Xia Qiu mention it! Hello, my name is Liu Lingmei!" Liu Lingmei still felt a little incredible. With the intimacy of this boy named Qianqi and Xia Qiu, it was not as simple as she had ever met.
"Hello!" Although he was not used to this way of greeting, Qianqi also responded.
I don't know why Xia Qiu became relaxed as soon as she saw Qianqi. This relaxing tear gland was also out of control. Tears crackled down, and the other three people next to him were a little at a loss.
"Xiaoqiu, why are you crying?" Liu Lingmei hurriedly took out a tissue bag from her schoolbag and pulled out one and handed it to her.
"Nothing!"
Although Xia Qiu answered this, Liu Lingmei was more curious. The boy in front of her was about the same height as Ouyang Xiao Leng, but he seemed to have a completely opposite personality. He looked at Xia Qiu's eyes. With the girl's intuition, she suddenly understood that he liked her.
Dong Muya interrupted them, patted her on the shoulder and said, "Since we met, let's go to dinner together?"
She really regrets bringing Qianqi here. If Ouyang Hongye knows about it, she will definitely say that she is unnecessary, so she must calm Liu Lingmei's suspicion as soon as possible.
"We said we were going to eat hot pot together before, why don't we go to eat that?"
Xia Qiu took the tissue handed to her by Liu Lingmei and wiped the tears on her cheeks dry. She felt that just because of her moment of fragility, it must make the situation more complicated.
Four people walked to the hot pot restaurant together. Xia Qiu and Liu Lingmei walked in front. Dong Muya dragged Qianqi to the back for fear that he would do something unreasonable on impulse.
The hot pot in winter is really delicious. It is a taste that Qianqi has never tasted. The same meat as usual is just shabued in the soup, and it becomes extremely delicious when it is dipped in the sauce. It has an endless aftertaste in the mouth. Even the vegetables that are usually don't like to eat become pleasant.
Looking at him chewing, Dong Muya shook her head and handed over a glass of water and said, "Eat slowly. You won't digest it!"
"Uh-huh!" Qianqi answered on his mouth, but the chopsticks still couldn't stop and caught another piece of meat.
At present, the awkward atmosphere just now has finally eased. The steam from the hot pot feels very comfortable and warm on his face. Xia Qiu feels that she has not been so full for a long time, as if she will burst with just one more bite.
Liu Lingmei had no appetite because she was still thinking about what happened just now. She let Dong Muya and Xia Qiu pile up the dishes for her into a hill in her seasoning bowl. She was still observing the so-called Dong Muya's cousin who suddenly appeared. His eating appearance was a little sorry for his handsome face, but even if he was eating, the corners of his mouth always smiled, which made her blush and heart beat a little after watching it for a long time.
After dinner, Qianqi insisted on sending Xia Qiu home. Dong Muya had to say goodbye to them first. Before leaving, she did not forget to wink at him and Xia Qiu desperately. Xia Qiu understood what she meant to her and must minimize the opportunity for Qianqi and Liu Lingmei to talk, but the fact was not as simple as she thought.
As soon as Dong Muya left, Liu Lingmei began her interrogation plan. All kinds of questions were thrown to Qianqi one after another. Now she asked, "Are you from Shanghai?"
Qianqi paused for two seconds and replied, "Hmm."
"Is there anything interesting in Shanghai?"
As soon as Liu Lingmei's second question was thrown, Xia Qiu felt that his brain was buzzing. If he asked what was interesting in the Qianqi demon world, he must know what happened in Shanghai...
"Oriental Pearl, the Bund, Tianzifang, People's Square, Chenghuang Temple, and Madame Tussauds Wax Museum..." Qianqi unexpectedly told Shanghai's attractions and their characteristics.
"Oh? If you have a chance to go to Shanghai, please be your guide!" Although Liu Lingmei is still a little skeptical, she has to admit that this person can really do everything about Shanghai.
"Okay!" Qianqi answered with a proud smile.
The childish smile on his pure face made Liu Lingmei's heart beat again. She blushed and said, "Thank you in advance!"
After sending Liu Lingmei home, Qianqi finally ushered in a moment of solitude with Xia Qiu. The two walked side by side in the night. He was rarely silent. The impulse to see her again had faded, and now he switched to the shy mode of teenagers. I haven't seen her for a long time. He feels much longer than it actually is. She seems to be thinner, dim and slightly red in her eyes than before. I don't know if it's because she didn't have a good rest or she just cried.
"How are you doing?" He asked tentatively.
Xia Qiu was not in a hurry to answer, but nodded silently.
"I went to see Xiao Leng. Although his injury is serious, he will get better soon!"
This sentence came from Qianqi, who had never been very comforting, which moved Xia Qiu more and more. She smiled at him faintly and said, "Thank you!"
"Thank you for what?" Qianqi habitually rubbed his hair and turned his face to one side.
Perhaps it is because Qianqi's height is similar to that of Ouyang Xiao Leng, and he happens to wear his clothes, which always makes Xia Qiu have hallucinations. On the way home in his memory, Ouyang Xiaolen always walked side by side with her in silence. There were too many thoughts in his deep eyes, but no matter how many troubles there were, she was still his concern. He always insisted on sending her away because he was worried about her. It's not just the relationship that connects him with her. Didn't she know her mind clearly for a long time? Why do you still feel sad that he may just be an inadvertent move?
Thinking about it like this, the knot in her heart opened! She looked at the starlight, took a deep breath of the slightly dry and cold air in winter, and her whole body became relaxed.
Then he turned around and asked Qianqi, "How's your father, Amber Dragon King?"
After waiting for her to break the awkward atmosphere, Qianqi replied, "Well, her body is much tougher than when she ascended to the throne!"
"Great!"
"What about you? Can the knife method be refined?
"Would you like to have a comparison?"
"Here?"
"It doesn't work here. Let's go to Ouyang Ancient House! Let's see who comes first!"
On one side of the road is Yongchuan Forest. At this time, there were no other pedestrians on the road. The two jumped up almost at the same time and flew into the air towards the Ouyang ancient house in the boundary. Even at night, the red light from the ground above the Black Fire Purgatory is still very easy to find, and they chase me towards the red light.
Qianqi still put a little water, but despite this, he still had to admire the growth of Xia Qiu's demon power. Although her flying skills are not skilled, her height and speed have reached a certain level.
They landed in the courtyard of Ouyang Ancient House. Qianqi drew water from the pond and used a hydrator to call out a transparent sword, and Xia Qiu called out the plum blade to prepare for battle. In this way, the two of them came and went to each other surrounded by trees and flowers.
Looking at Xia Qiu's concentration, Qianqi was no longer shy, but concentrated. First, in order not to hurt him, and second, he enjoyed the time alone with her. He wants to remember her appearance. Her moves seem weak but are clever, and her attack point is even more accurate than her own. When she passes by him, the wind brings the smell of her body and the fragrance of plants in the courtyard, and the moisture of the water is so unique, as well as her bun. He would occasionally scratch his face inadvertently, and every time it made him move.
