Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 655 The Darkened Sword Maniac of the Martial World vs. the Cunning Enchantress (41)

When Shen Shuyi woke up, she felt full of energy. The system said that Xie Xinghe had given her a lot of internal energy to heal her injuries while she was unconscious.

"Xie Xinghe?"

"I'm here." Xie Xinghe, who was practicing his martial arts nearby, opened his eyes upon hearing her voice.

"are you hungry?"

"I bought your favorite food."

Shen Shuyi propped herself up, looking at him with her bright eyes, "Xie Xinghe, you seem to be taking better and better care of me."

Xie Xinghe did not refute this time.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" Shen Shuyi got up, washed up, and slowly ate.

"Could it be that he's feeling guilty?"

"Mm." Xie Xinghe nodded.

Shen Shuyi blushed upon hearing this and began to eat her food in small bites.

……

Of course, Xie Xinghe and Shen Shuyi set off again. Fortunately, Tianshan was not too far from Penglai Island. After leaving Longkou Town, they had to pass by the foot of Tianshan to return to the Central Plains.

Along their journey, they encountered many martial arts figures while staying at inns.

Someone spread rumors in the martial arts world that Xie Xinghe of the Canglan Sword Sect had obtained the Alliance Leader's Token and the "Tai Xuan Scripture," which made them look at Xie Xinghe with a bit more jealousy and covetousness.

Shen Shuyi was confused. She asked the system, "66, how did they know that Xie Xinghe had taken the secret treasure? I remember that Xie Xinghe hadn't had time to tell the elders of the Canglan Sword Sect about this. No one knew except me."

[Dear host, have you forgotten Mo Lianzhou? You stabbed him on the spot, and he hates you to the core, and even more so Xie Xinghe who turned you against him. Even if Xie Xinghe didn't get the secret treasure, it doesn't stop him from spreading rumors.]
Shen Shuyi sneered, "It really was a lucky accident."

[Shi Zhengchun was also involved, secretly cultivating a fake Tai Xuan Scripture. Fearing discovery, he simply told others he saw Xie Xinghe seize the treasure.]
"Pretty insidious, huh?"

After having a full meal at the inn, Shen Shuyi grabbed her bundle and went out with Xie Xinghe to board the carriage.

Xie Xinghe, sitting in front, cracked the whip, and the horse galloped forward at breakneck speed. Suddenly, he felt someone lean over from behind and hug his neck.

Such a scene had happened before, and he had felt ashamed and angry then, but now he couldn't quite describe how he felt, only that his heart was beating very fast.

Why don't you go inside and rest?

Shen Shuyi whispered in his ear, "I slept well at the inn, so I'm not sleepy at all now."

"How are you feeling?" Xie Xinghe subconsciously tilted his head, letting the girl get too close.

If this continues, he probably won't be able to concentrate on catching the train.

"You're feeling great, not uncomfortable at all," Shen Shuyi teased him, deliberately kissing his ear.

"Is the aphrodisiac effect gone? Does that mean I can't get close to you or touch you?"

Xie Xinghe's ears burned. "I didn't say anything."

Shen Shuyi hugged his neck and laughed.

“I know you usually do things but don’t say them, I understand, I understand.”

Xie Xinghe's ears turned red upon hearing this.

He turned around and unexpectedly kissed the corner of her lips. "Go inside and rest."

Shen Shuyi didn't expect Xie Xinghe to resort to words when he couldn't win an argument. She cupped the man's face in her hands and retaliated with her cherry lips.

Xie Xinghe felt hot all over from her kisses and couldn't help but want to press her down in the carriage.
Shen Shuyi sensed his change and quickly pushed him away, saying, "Drive carefully, or you'll be held responsible if the car crashes."

Since it wasn't appropriate to do anything while we were in the carriage, I stopped teasing him.

Xie Xinghe watched the person hurriedly get into the carriage, and a doting smile appeared on his lips.

Shen Shuyi took another nap in the carriage. After some time, the sound of clashing swords suddenly rang out outside.

She opened her eyes. The carriage had stopped. She lifted the curtain and heard screams, and there was blood everywhere.

Shen Shuyi saw Xie Xinghe standing with his back to her, holding a long sword dripping with blood in his hand.

She jumped off the carriage and asked, "Who are these people?" The people were dressed in black and their faces were covered.

Xie Xinghe probed with his sword but couldn't find any special tokens or markings. "Perhaps they're after the secret treasure."

Shen Shuyi nodded thoughtfully. It seemed there would be no shortage of assassinations and treasure hunts along the way; she needed to think of a way to deal with it.
She called out to Xie Xinghe, "Let's go."

As she spoke, she grabbed Xie Xinghe's hand, and unexpectedly her fingers intertwined with his.

Xie Xinghe's fingertips brushed against the back of her hand. He sheathed his sword and lifted her onto his horse. "The carriage has been damaged. Let's ride away."

"Yes, riding a horse is faster too." Shen Shuyi looked at him. "Are you planning to share a ride with me?"

Xie Xinghe took the important package from the carriage, then mounted his horse and pressed himself against the girl's back, wrapping his arms around her and holding the reins.

"Ah."

"Are you seated securely?"

"Alright." As soon as she finished speaking, Xie Xinghe whipped his horse and rode away.

Shen Shuyi was swaying back and forth on the horse, and she could only steady herself by clinging tightly to Xie Xinghe's arms.

Sometimes, she would deliberately flirt with the man behind her, placing her hand on his hand that held the reins, and then gently scratching it.

Xie Xinghe held the person in his arms tightly the whole time. At this moment, he even imagined traveling the world with the girl in his arms, far away from the strife, living a life of dashing clothes and spirited horses.

He didn't want to be a young sect leader, nor did he want to use the alliance leader's token to become the leader of the martial arts world.

Shen Shuyi didn't know what Xie Xinghe was thinking, but she felt that his hands were burning hot.

The horses ran swiftly, and in just a few days they arrived at Tianshan City at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, where many martial arts practitioners had settled down.

Because this place is the gathering place of the major sects in the Central Plains, when they return to the Central Plains from Penglai Island, they will definitely stop here to rest for a day or two before continuing their journey.

Moreover, various martial arts sects are holding a grand competition for their younger generation here. Many martial arts elites have come from Penglai Island to participate in the competition, and the winner will receive a peerless sword.

After checking into the inn and having a meal, Shen Shuyi went to take a bath. When Xie Xinghe returned, he saw that her hair was half wet and draped around her waist.

Why didn't you dry your hair?

Shen Shuyi turned to look at the man who was holding a sword and leaning against the window. "I used my internal energy to dry it before I went to sleep."

Xie Xinghe leaned his longsword against the table and came over with a cloth. "In your current condition, it's best not to use your internal energy, lest you trigger the Gu worms and suffer the consequences."

Shen Shuyi sat cross-legged on the bed, looking at him, and asked sweetly.

"Then will you wipe it for me?"

Xie Xinghe remained silent, simply standing in front of her and gently wiping her hair.

Looking at the narrow waist in front of her, Shen Shuyi couldn't help but reach out and hug him, pressing her face close to his and whispering, "Xie Xinghe, do you think you look like a husband drying his wife's hair right now?"

Xie Xinghe pretended to be serious and refused to answer her question, "Does it look like it?"

"They look quite alike." Shen Shuyi rubbed her face against his waist.

Xie Xinghe dried her long hair, patted her shoulder, and said, "Lie down and rest. We'll go up the mountain tomorrow morning."

Shen Shuyi patted the bed. "Come up and sleep with me. I can't sleep well without you."

"Xie Xinghe, aren't you going to participate in the martial arts competition?"

Xie Xinghe looked at her intently, "If I come up here and you keep making a fuss, I won't be able to sleep well."

"I don't need to participate." Gathering herbs in the mountains is more important.

Shen Shuyi smiled, revealing her white teeth.

"Hurry up and get on!"

Xie Xinghe, who was originally tall and elegant, became even more enigmatic when she uttered those provocative words. He stepped forward, pinned Shen Shuyi to the bed, and kissed her lips.
