I stared at him for a moment, my expression seemingly relaxed, but I was actually very concerned, wanting to know the answer.
I'm also confused, Lou Shaotang's first love wasn't related to me in the slightest, so why should I know?
I suddenly realized that I was very curious about the woman I had never met and that I had a lot of questions to ask.
How strange, what's wrong with him?
"Lou Shaotang?" I called to him, thinking that he was not thinking about my problem, but about something else.
"You ask too many questions." He suddenly changed his expression, returning to his usual icy indifference.
Surprised, I immediately scoffed and said, "You must have been dumped."
"You're not sleepy?" He didn't answer, but gave me a cold look. "We can do something else," he said.
"…"
Ever since I divorced Lou Shaotang, my sleep quality had been very poor. Insomnia is a common occurrence, but last night I slept exceptionally well.
When he realised that his head was leaning on Lou Shaotang's shoulder, he immediately stood up and turned to look at him. His eyes were actually wide open as he looked in front of him.
I was startled. "When did you wake up? Why didn't you wake me up?"
He glanced sideways at me, ignoring me.
I was used to it. I sat down on the ground and twisted my neck and shoulders, which were aching from the sleep. I tried to stand up straight, but the moment I moved my legs, I cried out in pain.
"What's wrong?"
"My legs are numb."
I didn't look at him. I was kneading my legs, but I could hear that his voice sounded a little nervous. Doubting whether I had misheard him, I looked up at him to make sure, but he was already on his feet.
He hissed softly and frowned. Judging from his expression, his legs must have gone numb, too. But he ignored me, crouched down beside me, and bent my legs to support himself on the ground. While I was wondering what he was going to do, he began to knead my numb calves with his big palms.
Stunned, my mouth slightly open, I stared at him. I don't know if it was shock, or his gentle hand, but I didn't feel any tingling pain at all.
"Lou Shaotang, did you take the wrong medicine?" After a moment, I returned to my senses and raised my eyebrows to stare at him.
I don't understand why he treated me coldly in the soup sink the night before. Why does he seem to have changed since last night? Although his appearance was still as cold as ice, the things he did were filled with warmth.
Why?
He lifted his eyes slightly and glanced at me. He understood what I meant, but he disdained to reply.
"What is your purpose?" I asked him without hiding my suspicions.
Seeing my vigilant expression, he frowned and said in a displeased voice, "Are you afraid that I will harm you?"
His hand jerked. "Love you?" He snorted coldly, pushed my leg away with distaste, and stood up.
"…" I was speechless. It was just a joke, how could he have such a huge reaction?
I thought he was going to say something sarcastic and contemptuous to me again, but he didn't. He took the pack out of his pocket and lit it up with a cigarette.
I couldn't see his expression because his back was to me, but from the way he was smoking and the speed at which he was blowing smoke rings, he seemed irritated.
I don't know why, but I think he's always been moody, so I don't wonder why.
I just want to get out of here as soon as possible.
"Lou Shaotang."
When I called to him, he threw the cigarette on the floor, ground his feet, and turned.
Seeing his calm expression, I was slightly stunned. It seems that I guessed wrongly just now.
"How are we going to get back?"
After staring at me for a few seconds, Lou Shaotang slowly took out his phone from his pocket.
"You have a cell phone?" "Why didn't you call the police last night when you had a cell phone?"
At the time, I thought it was okay to lose my phone, but then I realized that even if my phone didn't have a signal, I could still call the police. I forgot to ask him if he had a cell phone because so many things happened last night, and he didn't volunteer it.
A burst of fire leapt up on top of my head.
"I forgot." he said, his tone light and dismissive.
"He can even forget that?" I gritted my teeth and stared at him, panting.
After calling the police, he saw that I was still sitting on the ground, his face red with anger. He walked over to help me up.
"Don't touch me."
My gut told me he was doing it on purpose, but I couldn't understand why.
He didn't seem to mind me being rude to him. He squatted down and asked, "Hungry?"
His expression was cold, but his voice was soft.
I was stunned.
Seeing that I just stared at him without saying anything, he added, "The rescue workers won't be here for a while. You must be hungry!"
"I'm not hungry." I returned to my senses, rubbed my starved stomach, and snapped at him.
I looked at him, puzzled.
Lou Shaotang came under the tree and raised his head to look at the tree. I followed his gaze and looked up as well.
So this was a fruit tree.
As I had not been dripping since the previous evening, my stomach rumbled reflexively when I saw the large and small red fruits on the tree.
He wants to pick the fruit for me to eat?
Just as I was denying this ridiculous idea in my heart, Lou Shaotang suddenly raised his hand and jumped up with all his might.
I stared at him in disbelief.
Seeing how hard he was jumping, the corner of my mouth curled up. I don't think he's done this before, right?
At the same time, I suddenly felt a little overwhelmed.
"Stop picking, I'm not hungry."
I stood behind him, watching his leaping back, and I felt unreal, as if I were in a dream.
Was this man really Lou Shaotang?
That Lou Shaotang who would only treat me coldly and despise me for looking down on me, and shame me and humiliate me?
Hearing my voice, Lou Shaotang turned his head. His head was covered with sweat and he held onto two fruits in his hands.
My heart slightly shook, and a warm current instantly flowed into my heart.
"What fruit is this?" I didn't know what kind of breed it was. I had never seen it before, but it looked pretty tasty, so I asked him.
"Eat till you die."
"…" The emotions that had just emerged were instantly wiped away by the cold choking.
The corners of my mouth curled up in a sneer. I was just about to mock him when I saw him wipe the fruit carefully on his clothes. I was stunned again.
He usually paid a lot of attention to his image and never allowed any flaws to appear on his body.
"What are you daydreaming for?"
The cold voice pulled me out of my daze.
He had already put the fruit in front of me. Without saying "eat", he nodded at me to take it.
I didn't refuse. I reached out to take it and took a bite. As I imagined, the fruit was sweet and watery, juice overflowed the corners of my mouth, and I licked it with the tip of my tongue.
I wanted to ask Lou Shaotang if he wanted to eat it, but when I looked up, I saw that his deep eyes were locked onto my lips without blinking, and the light in his eyes seemed to be burning.
Realizing that my expression must be unnatural, I quickly took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down.
"Try it?" Thinking he was hungry, I handed him the other fruit in my hand.
He glanced at it but didn't pick it up, his eyes coming back to my face. Just as I was wondering if he wanted to eat, he suddenly grabbed my hand and pulled me toward him, his warm lips immediately covering the mouth I was chewing.
My hand suddenly loosened and the fruit tumbled from my hand, and my mind went blank.
To my surprise, his tongue had already slipped into my mouth as if he were tasting a delicious dessert, licking and sucking every inch, every crevice.
Contrary to the tyranny and aggression of the past, he kissed me so tenderly that it softened my heart, and I could not help but respond to him.
Just when I was about to lose my soul from being pestered by him, his mocking laughter suddenly reached my ear. "It tastes good."
His handsome face was very close to mine. His thin, pretty lips were slightly raised, but there was a playful smile on his face.
I felt that I had been tricked by him again. I was both embarrassed and annoyed, but pretended to ridicule him with a cold smile, "So it turns out that Young Master Lou likes to eat the remnants of others. Then the next time I have any leftovers, I'll pack them up for you."
didn't seem to be angry at my taunts at all. She pursed her lips and laughed until her meaning was unclear.
It sounds weird, but I'm actually quite angry, yet why does the bottom of my heart have a sweet feeling? Was it because he ate that sweet fruit?
Soon, the rescue workers arrived, and we were immediately taken to a nearby hospital. Qiao Chenfei and Zhong Ruoqing came back very quickly after receiving the news.
Seeing Lou Shaotang and I together, the two of them were extremely shocked, especially Zhong Ruoqing.
"Shao Tang, you, didn't you go to see a client? How, how could you be with Tu Ying?" While saying this, Zhong Ruoqing glanced at me, and a trace of anger flashed past her eyes.
But I didn't put her in my eyes at all, my focus was on her words, so my attention was completely focused on Lou Shaotang, Qiao Chenfei too. He stared fixedly at Lou Shaotang, as though he was waiting for him to explain.
Lou Shaotang looked at me, and when he saw that I was staring at him closely, he immediately stopped staring, and said in a bland voice, "When we come back, we took a shortcut and came across it unintentionally."
So it was like this! I wonder how he got there.
"Xiao Ying, why did you go to the rear mountains without telling me? Do you know how anxious I was that I couldn't find you?"
Hearing Qiao Chenfei's concern for me, Lou Shaotang snorted, "Urgent? I didn't see you looking for her either! "
His extremely disdainful tone made Qiao Chenfei's face sink.
"I didn't expect her to be there." He said to Lou Shaotang with a cold voice.
Hearing him say that, Lou Shaotang's look of disdain became even stronger, he sneered, "Then I … …" He suddenly stopped, looked at me, cleared his throat, and then said: "Then I really am going to doubt your ability to do things."
I didn't like him looking down on Qiao Chenfei like that, so I also sneered and used the words to mock him, "It's not like you found me because you're strong, it's just that you didn't mean to pass by."
Lou Shaotang, who was quite proud just a moment ago, stiffened from my words, and snorted angrily.
I rolled my eyes and pretended not to see.
"I'm sorry Xiao Ying, it's all my fault." Qiao Chenfei gently caressed the wound on my face, his face full of pain.
"It's fine, I'm fine." I said with a very relaxed tone, and then, for some reason, my gaze shifted towards Lou Shaotang.
He was staring straight at my face, or more accurately speaking, at Qiao Chenfei's hand on my face. His gaze was as sharp as an arrow. My heart trembled, as though I was bewitched, and unconsciously pulled Qiao Chenfei's hand away.
At this moment, I glanced at Zhong Ruoqing, who was nervously examining his injuries. Her hands were touching and touching his bare and strong arms, causing a surge of nameless fire to suddenly rise up. Then, I thought about my fall down the mountain, so I asked Zhong Ruoqing, "Zhong Ruoqing, where were you yesterday evening?"
Listening to my question, Zhong Ruoqing's hand that was on Lou Shaotang's arm suddenly stopped. In that instant, I immediately caught a glimpse of panic in her eyes, which further confirmed my guess.
