Do you really like him?

There are so many kinds of thoughts in this world.

If he is alive, it is better to see him with one's own eyes; if he is not, why bother to think too much?

She glared at Xu Heng, and as if she was angry, she kicked Xu Heng with her uninjured leg. However, the moment she lifted her leg up, he grabbed her ankle: "Let go!"

She glared at Xu Heng.

Xu Heng also looked at her for a while, until he saw the edge of Luo Yi's anger, before he slowly retracted his gaze and let go of her leg.

After a long time, he finally opened his mouth.

"Scram!"

Luo Yi was flustered and exasperated, her leg which she had barely calmed down immediately became noisy again, and she didn't even let go of her injured leg. "You're scolding me in a roundabout way, aren't you? If you want to cut all ties, just say it! "

She waved her hand randomly to chase Xu Heng away, then pointed towards the door and shouted to him. Your whole family is being merciful! "

Luo Yi was infuriated, but she did not know that her current state of mind was actually a little angry from embarrassment.

Xu Heng did not get angry, he actually really walked to the door after letting her go. Only, before he left, he turned around to look at her again: "Do you really like that bamboo horse of yours?"

"Then what? Don't I like him? "

"That's not necessary," Xu Heng still had the mood to tease her, but at the same time, he managed to tease her, "I don't dare."

Although he didn't make it clear, it was obvious that he was mocking her. Luo Yi became even more anxious and threw the pillow at his side, "Shut up!"

However, when she was truly the only one left in the room, Luo Yi did not know what to do and curled himself into a ball.

She had never thought that when Xu Heng asked her those questions today, she would feel like someone was spying on her heart and her panic. It was as if the secret that she had gone through so much trouble to hide was suddenly exposed under the sunlight.

She just said that she didn't know if Xu Heng was able to help her take back her money pouch, but even she couldn't fool him with this reason. In fact, after trying once but failing, she had indeed not thought of how to take back her money purse.

Just as Xu Heng had said, she chose to give up so easily.

And before Xu Heng asked this question, she did not realise that he was giving up.

Also, when Xu Heng walked out of the door, he asked her if he really liked Lin Ting …

Of course I do! They had grown up together and Lin Ting had treated her well, so how could he not like him?

That's right! She should have liked him!

As if a drowning person had finally grabbed onto a floating log of wood, Luo Yi struggled on the water's surface, barely able to see the edge of the water. He kept repeating "I should have liked him anyway" repeatedly in order to calm his heart.

She finally caught her breath.

It's all Xu Heng's fault!

She angrily turned her body under the blanket and pulled the blanket over her head. In the darkness that filled her eyes, she muttered, "You just kept asking me questions! "Weird!"

Then he kicked his leg, "So annoying! I won't care about him anymore! "

She pursed her lips and hid in the safety zone she had built for herself. After a long while, she slowly fell asleep. She didn't realize that the words she used to comfort herself had a huge logical loophole.

The next day, when Luo Yi woke up, she was still not completely out of breath. With difficulty, she jumped to the wooden table in the middle of the room, only to find that breakfast was already prepared on the table.

There was even the chestnut cake that she mentioned when she rose up yesterday.

In the days after he had arrived at the Northern Tribes, Luo Yi had followed Xu Heng to various places and spent a lot of money. It was true that he had spent a lot of money, but he had indeed eaten a lot of delicious things.

The people of the Northern Army added goat's milk to the heart of this point, and it tasted not only of the chestnut but of the goat's milk as well.

She had only casually mentioned that Xu Heng was drinking tea at that time. Hearing her words, he did not respond, and his hands did not stop moving for a second. Luo Yi even suspected that he did not hear what she was saying.

Furthermore, the shop that sold chestnut cake was a little far from the inn they were staying, and since Luo Yi's legs were inconvenient, in order to take care of her, Xu Heng had not stepped out of her house for a few days. Thus, when Luo Yi said that she would forget about it, she did not really expect to be able to eat it, not to mention that …

When Xu Heng left her room last night, the condition of the two of them could be said to be as though they had parted on bad terms.

Luo Yi sat properly in front of the table, staring blankly at the dessert in front of him for a good while.

When she went downstairs, Xu Heng had already been sitting downstairs for a long time. Seeing her come over, he filled her up with water, she even remembered Luo Yi saying that it was bitter in the shop.

He was so sincere that it was impossible for Luo Yi to hold a grudge no matter how much she wanted to. She took the cup and drank a mouthful of water, making peace. However, she still looked a little uncomfortable as she turned her head and glared at Xu Heng fiercely once more to vent her anger.

Xu Heng laughed, but did not say much, and just let her play with him, until she completely calmed down. Then, he looked down at her ankle: "I left in a hurry last night, I didn't have time to apply the medicine for you, did you apply it yourself?"

"AHH!" "No."

Luo Yi was so angry last night that she had completely forgotten about the medicine. Now that Xu Heng mentioned it this way, he finally remembered it so he lowered his head and looked at Xu Heng's movements: "I forgot."

She couldn't bear it, so she turned her ankle gently and said, "But it doesn't matter, it's almost done. Look for yourself. "

She stretched out her legs and brought it close to Xu Heng's eyes. "Is it not as swollen as yesterday?"

"Ugh …" Xu Heng took a closer look and realised that his originally swollen ankle had become much weaker. "Indeed, it's much better than a few days ago, so the medicine should stop."

He looked away and said indifferently.

"Yes, yes." Luo Yi nodded while drinking water, her attitude even more indifferent than Xu Heng, as if the two were not discussing about her feet.

However, it was strange, Luo Yi's feet had not recovered from the medicine every day, and had even become more swollen every day. However, ever since she stopped applying the medicine, the injuries on her feet became much better, and on the third day, which was Lou Han Day, she was already able to walk alone.

Although she had persisted on for too long, Luo Yi was still very happy, and insisted that the heavens did not want her to see it. She had gone on a long journey with great difficulty, but could only stay in bed for the rest of her life, thus the moment her feet landed on the ground, she pestered Xu Heng, saying that she wanted to go to Lou Han Festival to have a look.

The so-called Lou Han Festival was actually not that different from the festivals that were common in Li Kingdom. It was just that the people of the Northern Tribes were more open-minded, and had some bold activities compared to the Li Kingdom. For example, when the two of them had just arrived at a place with a lot of people, they were artificially separated, and then two groups of people rushed out from an unknown place, pushing each other onto the stage.

The stage looked like it was a theater, and in a moment, Luo Yi felt that he and Xu Heng were not exposed spies, so they were all about to be beheaded by the people of the Northern Tribes. In the end, when the thought went through her mind, she saw a lady wearing revealing clothes standing in front of him with her waist bent, and beckoned to her.

Oh...

Luo Yi suddenly realized.

It was probably some welfare show that required interaction with the live audience.

Thinking about it this way, Luo Yi relaxed, and because she was dressed like a man, she felt that although she had been teased by a woman in public, she absolutely could not lose, thus she immediately revealed a smile of a dissolute young master, and used his hand to wipe the back of the other party's hand.

She had been disguised as a girl all year, and such actions were easy for her, she thought that she was extremely relaxed, and after doing that she even raised her chin proudly towards Xu Heng.

Unexpectedly, before Xu Heng could react, the woman beside his who she had taken advantage of was stunned for a moment. Then, she lowered her head and looked at her in astonishment.

After a while, he raised his eyebrows.

Luo Yi suddenly felt that the temperature had dropped by a few degrees. However, the girl's face didn't reveal any signs of impatience. Luckily, she tilted her head and smiled at her. Immediately after, she clapped her hands and called for someone to bring her up.

The cage.

The cage was originally going to be lifted in Xu Heng's direction, but after the lady went over and said a few things to the man in the lead, they all turned around and headed straight towards her.

Luo Yi almost fell off her chair.

She widened her eyes as she looked in horror at the few people on the stage behind her. They opened the cage's door and extended their hands, enthusiastically pulling her into the cage.

Luo Yi quickly waved her hand, her entire body was filled with the word refuse, and she desperately pointed to the other side, indicating for them to go and find Xu Heng.

However, this group of people, whether it was on purpose or not, had completely ignored Luo Yi's actions, and kept on dragging her, wanting to lock her in the cage.

Luo Yi wanted to cry, but no tears would come out. As she was entangled with others, she accidentally raised her head and coincidentally met with the woman's smiling eyes.

could tell from that different smile that he was really laughing.

If only he had known earlier that this person was so vengeful, he wouldn't have taken advantage of the situation!

Luo Yi struggled with her legs wide open, thinking that she could not accept her fate so easily, she shouted "Young Noble, save me!", but in the end, she saw that not only was Xu Heng seated and well, there was even someone who gave him a cup of tea. At this moment, she was smilingly drinking his tea, and looking at her again.

The three-year-old Luo Yi suddenly lost her dream.

"Motherf * cker …"

Luo Yi finally lost all of her strength, and before she could even finish swearing, she was already locked in the cage. Following the hanging of the red cloth over the cage, her entire person lost contact with the outside world.

The onlookers' curiosity was piqued, as they tiptoed their way in, only to see the woman walk around the stage before returning to the cage, and then she suddenly raised her hand to lift off the red cloth that was covering the cage. The person who was obviously trapped in the cage under the watchful eyes of everyone was nowhere to be seen, leaving behind an empty cage.

In the next second, the originally relaxed man was grabbed by the neck from behind.

Luo Yi couldn't stand steadily on one foot, but she was extremely anxious and angry. The moment the man who helped her let go of his hands, she impatiently reached for Xu Heng's neck.

Xu Heng was caught off guard. The tea water sprinkled onto his body, and Luo Yi swayed with all her might amidst the heaven-shaking applause and laughter.

"If I don't pinch you to death today," Luo Yi gnashed his teeth.

Of course, it was impossible to have the same surname as Xu Heng, and strangling him to death was also impossible. Luo Yi angrily flung off the hand Xu Heng wanted to support her with, and jumped forward with one strong foot.

In the end, after jumping for a short while, she was forcefully pulled over by Xu Heng, and while holding back her laughter, she teased her: "I didn't want to torture you, you actually tricked people."

He supported Luo Yi and made her lean half of her body against her shoulder. As he spoke, he was still concerned about the wound on her leg.

"We're all girls, how can I take advantage of you!"

Luo Yi was still furious, after taking two steps she had to turn her head to look at Bai Xu Heng, then took another two steps, sneaking a glance at Xu Heng's "Don't worry about me, I'm very calm" expression, finally she gritted her teeth angrily and unwillingly took out a slip of paper from her sleeves: "Yours."

The note had been given to her when she came down from the stage.

On the surface, the stage looked no different from a normal stage, but in truth, the instant the red cloth was pulled down, Luo Yi's feet became empty, following that, someone below carried her down from the waist, and without waiting for her to cry out in shock, they firmly placed her on the ground.

The young man who carried her down looked at her and touched the tip of his nose shyly.

Luo Yi reacted quickly, when she stood steadily, she immediately raised her head to look above her head, only to realize that the wooden board had already closed, and that she was in a place that had already been prepared beforehand. Other than the man who brought her down, there was also a lady with a cold face.

The slip of paper was secretly given to her by this girl when she wasn't paying attention.

She had never been to the Northern Tribes before and had never seen this girl before, so it was unlikely that this thing was meant for her. She then thought about how Xu Heng had shot her a glance when she was forcefully dragged onto the stage.

At first glance, the contents of the paper appeared to be some strange brushstrokes. It was so messy that it seemed to have no pattern. Luo Yi clicked her tongue. Out of the corner of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of Xu Heng glancing in her direction, and then, she slowed down her hands.

After the paper was folded, the originally scattered brushstrokes were put together and finally formed two complete words, 'Zi' .
