Chapter 55 - Injuries
Tao Chu Liang stared blankly for a moment, before saying, "I also want to play a bit, no one is accompanying anyone, playing around is the most important."
Tao Chu Liang successfully avoided the awkward subject.
Qiao Qing Hao slowly pulled Tao Chu Liang up, but this slope was rather steep and extremely slippery, making it impossible for Tao Chu Liang to climb up it in a few steps. Qiao Qing Hao could only slowly retreat and ascend step by step while protecting Tao Chu Liang from below. They looked especially gentle, enough to melt the hearts of many girls.
Seeing the interaction between the two of them, Xiang Chen Xi didn't have the mind to care about this seemingly delicate and weak woman beside him. Instead, he was focused on the interaction between Tao Chu Liang and Qiao Qing Hao, and the more he watched, the more eye-catching he felt.
He was already so happy when he was with Qiao Qing Hao, and his face turned sullen when he was with him.
Thinking about it, Xiang Chen Xi became angry, he kicked the soil under his feet, successfully dirtying his shoes.
Looking at Xiang Chen Xi's angry actions, Tao Yi Fei knew that Xiang Chen Xi only cared about Tao Chu Liang, while he himself was just a decoration by Xiang Chen Xi's side.
If it weren't for Xiang Chen Xi, she wouldn't even bother to come participate in such a boring expedition. Originally, he had thought that he could take Xiang Chen Xi down in one go by letting Qiao Qing Hao stall Tao Chu Liang. But, even though Qiao Qing Hao was entangled with Tao Chu Liang, Xiang Chen Xi's gaze did not stop on him.
This couldn't go on.
Thinking like this, Tao Yi Fei pulled Xiang Chen Xi's hand, and leaned towards Xiang Chen Xi as close as she could, "Big Brother Chen Xi, let's go up. Cousin sister and Mr. Qiao have both gone up, if we don't go up now, we'll fall behind."
Tao Yi Fei's voice was extremely flirtatious because she was especially close to Xiang Chen Xi. When she spoke, her mouth was puffing hot air towards Xiang Chen Xi's chest, extremely ambiguous.
Sensing the aura Tao Yi Fei had brought with him, Xiang Chen Xi pushed Tao Yi Fei away without leaving a trace, and said indifferently, "Alright."
After he finished speaking, he walked forward on his own, and what he saw were only the backs of Tao Chu Liang and Qiao Qing Hao, and did not care about pulling his hand, Tao Yi Fei who was following behind him.
Tao Yi Fei looked at Tao Chu Liang with hatred. Just as he was about to climb the slope, in the blink of an eye, he had already made up his mind. He released Xiang Chen Xi's hand and looked behind him. When he leaned back, he even let out a loud shout. This time, it was not only Xiang Chen Xi who turned his head, but both Tao Chu Liang and Qiao Qing Hao also looked towards the direction of the voice.
Everyone turned their heads, only to see Tao Yi Fei tumbling down the slope uncontrollably.
Of course, Tao Yi Fei would not be so foolish, because she had only climbed one or two steps, and the slope was especially low. If she continued to roll like this, there would actually be a sense of reality, and he would not be injured.
Sure enough, as Tao Yi Fei expected, after she rolled down, Xiang Chen Xi immediately came down and helped her up, and asked her, "What's wrong, are you alright?"
"Big Brother Chen Xi, I'm fine. It's all because of Evelyn's uselessness, this slope is too slippery." Big Brother Chen Xi, I'm fine, it's all because of Evelyn's uselessness, this slope is too slippery. Tao Yi Fei pretended to be embarrassed and said apologetically.
Xiang Chen Xi indifferently replied, "Yes." He supported Tao Yi Fei as she walked forward, but just as he took a step, Tao Yi Fei started shouting loudly, "Ah … Big Brother Chen Xi, I think I sprained my ankle. "
With no other choice, Xiang Chen Xi carried Tao Yi Fei on his back and slowly climbed up the slope.
Tao Yi Fei lay on Xiang Chen Xi's back, and finally let out a complacent glance at Tao Chu Liang.
Tao Chu Liang looked coldly at the two people who were slowly climbing up the slope, and said indifferently, "Cousin sister, you really have been through many calamities. The day before yesterday drowning, today sprain foot, before going out should look at the calendar? As a bystander, I'm getting a little tired of watching you put on a show all day long. Don't you find it annoying? It was time for another move. Actually, Xiang Chen Xi is quite close to you, if you want him to pay attention to you, you can just directly tell him, no need to be so injured everyday, it will be very hard. "
After Tao Chu Liang finished speaking, his mood was elated, but, Tao Yi Fei's face instantly darkened. However, she still pampered, "Cousin sister, I'm not willing to always be injured … Such pain, it might even leave behind some side effects. "Cousin, why are you looking at me like that …"
Tao Chu Liang didn't speak anymore, he only felt that these two people were really baffling. One of them was risking his life to cause unexpected injuries to himself while the other one was jumping into a pit every time. It was laughable that he couldn't escape from it once.
Tao Chu Liang felt that it was strange, why would Xiang Chen Xi, who was normally such a clever person, jump into his cousin's trap time and time again?
Just with her own cousin's acting skills, she could even see through him, much less someone as smart as Xiang Chen Xi normally. Unless he was willing to jump into Tao Yi Fei's trap.
Thinking about that, Tao Chu Liang started to get angry. She really couldn't think of another reason besides liking his that could make Xiang Chen Xi willingly jump into her trap.
At that time, it was Xiang Chen Xi who took the initiative to ask her to marry him. Could it be that it was just a temporary whim? Or was there another reason — his father's legacy, for instance?
What Tao Chu Liang did not know was that all of this was actually for her sake. In order for her to find the real culprit who harmed his parents as soon as possible, he hoped that the truth would be revealed, that everything would fall into place, and then vanish into thin air. Xiang Chen Xi hoped that with everything that had happened, he could shoulder a little more, and it would not tire Tao Chu Liang so much.
Although the current her looked to be brimming with vitality, Xiang Chen Xi knew that she was not truly happy. Everything was just a disguise, in the depths of her heart, there was a wound that needed to be slowly filled in. She needed time.
Xiang Chen Xi hoped that he could help her save a whole day and find out the reason behind his parents' death. He hoped that he could give her a satisfactory explanation and also comfort Uncle Tao and Aunt Tao.
As if he didn't hear the conversation of the two women, Xiang Chen Xi carried Tao Yi Fei as they slowly ascended the slope.
Looking at this scene, Tao Chu Liang really did not want to say anything. He could only cry out for him, but he did not care about it at all.
He simply ignored him and continued to drag Qiao Qing Hao forward.
However, when he saw Xiang Chen Xi carrying Tao Yi Fei just now, and how Tao Yi Fei was laughing so proudly, why did her heart still uncontrollably ache once.
Recalling her cousin's gleeful smile, she felt indignant in her heart.
