Chapter 711 "Today You Can Only Be My Lover"

Since Xiao Xiazhi was not feeling well, it was obviously impossible for her to continue wandering outside, so Xia Zhi had to take her "sickly" back to the hotel.

Seeing the boy go back, Irena seemed to have no mood to stay any longer. Without waiting for the store to finish the rest of the order, she canceled the "order" and went back with Xia Zhi.

Originally, Xia Zhi thought that every failure is a lesson for everyone. It was just a small problem anyway, so in order to teach Xiao Xia Zhi a lesson, he did not help the girl recover.

But now, he felt a little regretful.

He spent almost the entire afternoon taking care of the girl.

In this state, Xiao Xiazhi became even more clingy, as if she only recognized him and would not let anyone interfere at all.

Xia Zhi could probably understand now why the wounded were more of a hindrance to the war situation than the dead on those battlefields.

"elder brother……"

Looking at the black-haired girl who fell on his legs and looked at him pitifully after dinner, Xia Zhi sighed helplessly and reached out his hand to gently rub her belly.

Xiao Xiazhi giggled and closed her eyes in enjoyment.

After being "sick", the girl seemed to become more spoiled.

"It's been so long, it should be okay by now, right?" Xia Zhi looked at her and asked.

"No, it still hurts." Xiao Xiazhi said, frowning slightly, and after thinking carefully for a while, she said:

"Isn't there a term called... aftereffects?"

Summer Solstice:…

He had never heard of any side effects from eating cold food that could cause an upset stomach.

Even without Hubie's help with the physical examination, Xia Zhi probably knew that this was just an excuse for the girl to act coquettishly in front of him.

Fortunately, as if because she had expended too much energy in the morning, or perhaps because she was too comfortable and at ease, the girl fell asleep early after closing her eyes not long after, which made Xia Zhi breathe a sigh of relief.

"Thank you for your hard work, brother...'I'm sorry to have caused you trouble." Xia Zhi took the sleeping "self" from the boy and said apologetically.

Out of some greed, she did not stop "herself" from doing such willful things.

How to say it... Because in her "timeline", the "reconciliation" with her brother happened a long time later, after she grew up. So even with her current relationship with her brother, she has never experienced the feeling of being able to act like a spoiled child and being taken care of by her brother like a child.

And through the memory that was unilaterally connected with the girl, she could also personally feel the gentle tolerance and care from her brother, and she was immersed in it inadvertently... She only cared about her own feelings and forgot to help her brother out, feeling a little sorry for him.

and so……

"I won't mind the fact that you and 'me' had a secret date today." Xia Zhi winked at the boy, then turned around and returned to the room while holding the sleeping "self".

Ah, this...

Xia Zhi then recalled that Xia Zhi could also see all of the girl's memories.

In other words, everything I did this morning was actually seen by my sister?

……never mind.

Xia Zhi shook his head and declined Cong Yu's offer of "Do you need me to rub your back?" He asked her to wait for him in the room, took the clothes from her blushing hands, and turned to walk towards the hot spring bathroom.

……

Walking into the hot spring bath and soaking himself in the warm water, Xia Zhi breathed a long sigh of relief.

Finally, after being here for so long, he finally succeeded in taking a hot spring bath.

Suddenly, I heard a slight sound of footsteps coming from outside the curtain.

Then, the curtain was gently lifted, and a somewhat familiar figure walked in.

Xia Zhi was slightly stunned when he saw the person coming, not quite understanding how she got here.

That's why... I asked the boss to make the sign clearer, he thought.

Because of the angle, the man didn't seem to notice Xia Zhi who was already sitting in the hot spring. He walked straight to the hot spring and put his hand on the bath towel.

Feeling that he might not have a chance to explain it any further, Xia Zhi thought about it and coughed softly.

“That… there is someone.”

Irena seemed to be startled, her body stiffened slightly, and she turned her head to look in the direction of the sound.

The moment those glass-colored eyes met, they both fell silent.

There is only one thought in my mind at this moment

...Did she take the wrong path, or did I?

Looking at the girl's somewhat flustered expression, Xia Zhi probably knew the answer.

Well, last time I accidentally broke into her side, and this time she broke into this side.

So, it should be considered even?

"You, why aren't you wearing any clothes?" Irena turned her head away, her face slightly red and she stammered.

Summer Solstice: ?

What nonsense are you talking about? Who wears clothes in the bath?

"At least wrap yourself in a towel, right?"

Xia Zhi lowered his head and looked at himself... Most of his body was submerged in water, how did you know I was not wrapped up?

Irena seemed to know that what she had just said made no sense, so she didn't say anything else.

However, even though she knew she had taken the wrong path, she did not seem to intend to leave. Instead, after hesitating for a moment, she still came to the hot spring.

Then, the girl stretched out her jade-white feet and tentatively tapped the water surface with her toes, causing ripples.

As if she felt the water temperature was just right, she breathed a sigh of relief, covered the bath towel with one hand, slowly walked into the hot spring and sat down.

"This is the men's bathing pool." Xia Zhi reminded her.

"What does it matter... There aren't any other travelers who can come to this inn anyway, right?" The girl said this, her cheeks and ears slightly red, perhaps because of the heat from the hot spring.

That being said... But hearing this, the innkeeper will be sad, right?

Xia Zhi thought about it, his eyes fell on the red string tied around the girl's fair wrist.

As far as he knew, tying a red string on the wrist seemed to be a custom in his homeland, right? Was there such a custom in Irena's world as well?

"Did you say this?"

Noticing his gaze, Irena lowered her head and looked at the red string tied around her fair wrist. She explained, "I got this from a fortune teller. It's said to be a magic item that can tell who a person likes."

Irena said as she untied the red string on her wrist and held one end of the string.

Soon, the red string floated up gently, and the other end fluttered and pointed to the summer solstice.

· ········Request flowers··· ··

The girl gave an expression that said, “Look, this is amazing, isn’t it?”

"Want to try it?"

Xia Zhi took the red rope from Irena and held one end of it like she did.

Soon, the red string trembled slightly.

Under the gazes of the two, the red rope seemed to be given life and floated up, swimming in the air. After turning a few circles, it pointed in the direction of Irena...

Irena snorted and showed an expression that said "as expected", as if she had known it for a long time. However, the smile on the corner of her mouth revealed her inner thoughts at the moment.

"How's it? Pretty cool, right?"

Xia Zhi feels that rather than divination, it is more like mind reading, right?

After all, if I were to talk about liking someone... Irena isn't the only one I like.

Because the person in front of me now is Irena, and I focused more on her, so I only detected my good feelings towards Irena?

What would happen if you tried to think about other people?

... ...... 0

As Xia Zhi thought this, the red string in his hand that was originally pointing to the gray-haired girl shook slightly and slowly began to change direction...

However, at this moment, a white and tender hand reached out from the side and grasped the end of the red rope firmly in its hand.

Xia Zhi was stunned for a moment, raised his head and looked at the girl opposite him, only to find that she had already come to him.

Facing his puzzled look, Irena raised her head, looked at his face so close to her, and took a deep breath.

"You said that on this day of Qixi Festival, you would be... No, you can only be my lover."

"..."

Xia Zhi was unable to refute the girl's words, and all his words were blocked.

The water surface was rippling gently, and circles of ripples spread out along with the movements of the two people, just as the same ripples were also spreading slightly in their hearts.

After an unknown amount of time, the two separated again. Irena's cheeks were flushed, but she still looked firmly into the boy's eyes and said:

"So...you are not allowed to think about other people at this time."

"Isn't that a little too overbearing?" Xia Zhi asked.

"Don't forget, you still owe me a wish."

Is this a request? Xia Zhi thought.

After all, the last game had to have a loser to end. In order to end it smoothly, I didn't care so much about it. I just didn't realize that she would bring it up at this time.

Looking at the girl who seemed to be suppressing her shyness and making such a bold move just now, Xia Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and no longer cared about her unauthorized replacement of the winning reward.

Also, if she is a girlfriend, then it should be okay for her to do things that are appropriate for a girlfriend, right?

Xia Zhi thought about it, and gently pulled the red rope with his hand. Amid the girl's suppressed exclamation, he pulled the girl "connected" to the other end back into his arms...

……

In the room, Cong Yu raised her head and looked at the moon outside the window.

Master...you are so slow, you haven't come back yet?

……

Chapter 712: Waking someone up is hard work, especially waking a witch up

Xia Zhi yawned.

Eluke, who was sitting in his arms, seemed to be infected and yawned as well.

But when she was halfway through yawning and took a deep breath, she seemed to sense something and a look of confusion and doubt appeared in her eyes.

After thinking about it, she turned around, grabbed Xia Zhi's clothes and wanted to get close to his neck to smell it carefully, but the boy pressed her head back.

Ai Luke showed a dissatisfied expression.

Xia Zhi looked at the two people who had been making a fuss early in the morning with confusion, and after thinking for a while, she asked:

"Speaking of which, brother...sister Irena hasn't gotten up yet?"

"Maybe she's too tired." Xia Zhi replied while rubbing the girl's head in his arms to calm her down.

"Really?" Xia Zhi looked around the room and asked doubtfully:

"Xiao Congyu didn't see it either..."

"After all, "360" goes to bed late." Xia Zhi answered absent-mindedly.

In fact, he should be the one who goes to bed the latest.

It was already late at night when I sent Irena back to her room last night. I went back and comforted the angry Cong Yu for a long time. By the time she fell asleep, it was almost dawn.
