Who says those who retire at the speed of light are not heroes?

"He's taking a shower."

"Oh..." Xu Wanyue nodded slightly and gently turned the ribs in the pot.

Xu Linglan was picking vegetables on the side. She always felt that Lu Xiaoxiao, who walked in, seemed a little bit awkward, as if... her legs couldn't close together. A strange thought came to her mind, and she subconsciously activated her new ability that she had recently developed, X-ray vision.

Lu Xiaoxiao's underwear was properly worn under her nightgown, but... it seemed to be a little... wet.

Xu Linglan’s eyes widened.

After Lu Xiaoxiao left the kitchen, Xu Linglan hesitated for a while before she could not help but whisper, "Sister..."

"Hmm?" Xu Wanyue turned around.

Xu Linglan looked at Xu Wanyue's gentle eyes, but for a moment she didn't know how to say it. If her sister didn't know, she wouldn't feel awkward, right? So in the end she just rubbed her stomach and said, "I'm so hungry."

"Then let's steal a piece of pork ribs first." Xu Wanyue took chopsticks and scooped out a small bowl of the stewed winter melon and pork ribs.

....................................

dinner time.

The table was a square, with Xu Linglan sitting opposite Lin Cheng. While Lin Cheng was eating, he suddenly felt a leg kicking him under the table. But when he raised his head to look for the suspect, everyone seemed to be eating quietly.

A few seconds later, the little feet under the table kicked him again, and this time he clamped them tightly. The expression of Xu Linglan opposite him changed for a moment. The next second, Lin Cheng noticed her mind reading again, so he said silently in his heart, "What are you doing?"

"What were you doing?"

"What were you doing just now?"

"Before dinner."

"I'm taking a shower."

"Just a shower?"

Lin Cheng suddenly felt guilty again, "Why do you pay attention to so many boring things every day?"

"My sister is at home. You, you are going too far."

"But she doesn't know."

"you!"

"If you don't tell her...she won't know."

Lin Cheng loosened his legs that were holding her feet, but the next second Xu Linglan had stretched her legs straight and stepped hard on his body. Lin Cheng looked at her helplessly and decided not to bother with her.

After dinner, it was time to go home. Xu Wanyue and Xu Linglan left together. Lin Cheng thought about it and decided to go back too, so he sat in the back seat of Xu Wanyue's car. Xu Wanyue sent him home. He waved to Xu Wanyue outside the car window. Xu Wanyue smiled at him with such gentle eyes.

After watching Lin Cheng leave, Xu Wanyue started the car again. Xu Linglan pouted her lips slightly in the passenger seat. After a while, she heard Xu Wanyue whisper, "What's wrong?"

"fine."

"Why do you look like you're having a quarrel?"

"It's okay." Xu Linglan could only keep this little secret in her heart. Her sister would be unhappy if she told her, but it would be awkward if she didn't tell her. Xu Wanyue drove calmly and asked casually, "Because of Lin Cheng?"

"Not really..."

"what is that?"

"Lin Cheng and Sister Xiaoxiao... Sister knows about their relationship, right?"

"I know." Xu Wanyue nodded gently and looked forward, "Xiaoxiao told me about fair competition."

"What, what do you mean by fair competition? That guy is not the protagonist of a harem novel!"

"But Xiaoxiao likes him. Can I not allow Xiaoxiao to like him?"

"Then he and Sister Xiaoxiao are having an ambiguous relationship... and he is shamelessly pestering Sister..."

"I was the one who went to find him." Xu Wanyue said softly, "So don't blame him."

"not understand."

"Children don't need to understand adult matters so well."

"But my sister must feel wronged... That guy didn't send you any messages for so long, and you had to go find him in person..."

"It's not like that." Xu Wanyue shook her head slightly.

"It's not like this?"

"Because he knows that if he keeps pestering me, I might feel overwhelmed and wonder whether I should go along with him or stay away from him. I'm not good at saying no, so he didn't contact me. I guess, just guessing, if I don't contact him, he won't contact me again. But I can't blame him for this... It's not that he abandoned me, but that I rejected him before, and he doesn't want to pester me and cause me trouble, so he ignored me."

"Then why did sister still go looking for him?" Xu Linglan's cheeks puffed up slightly.

Xu Wanyue looked at the sunset glow gradually disappearing in front of her and said softly, "I don't know."

"How could you not know?"

"I just don't know. Maybe... I haven't seen him for a long time, so I suddenly missed him so much. When I heard Xiaoxiao and him quarreled, I felt that the guy would be very disappointed, so I couldn't help but want to comfort him."

"What about the future? What should we do in the future?"

Xu Wanyue shook her head, "I don't know."

"How come you don't know..."

"I don't know, I don't know. Okay, okay, we're home." Xu Wanyue stopped the car and took out her cell phone with Xu Linglan. She returned to the room, took out her cell phone, found Lin Cheng's chat box, and sent a message, "Lin Xiaocheng, if you confess, you will be treated leniently, but if you resist, you will be treated severely. What were you doing before dinner?"

"Xu Linglan told you?"

"Hey, no, it was when Xiaoxiao came to the kitchen that I thought she looked weird."

"Hmm? Can you tell from this?"

"That's a girl's intuition."

"Amazing!"

"You are becoming more and more shameless, Lin Xiaocheng."

"Is my sister angry?"

"Not really... I just feel a little awkward. I've decided to return the clip I bought! I thought the bow was pretty cute."

"Hey!! Why would you buy something like this?"

"I have a feeling that you will want to escalate your bullying of me in the future, so I bought some that won't hurt."

"Don't you want to level up?"

"Hey, no, I've already returned it."

"Cry, Yuyu, be sad, and repent."

"It's too late."

Lin Cheng started sending her cat pictures, and Xu Wanyue also sent her a lot of cat pictures in reply. The two began a cat picture cycle, which ended with Xu Wanyue's cat picture library running out of money.

"Okay, okay, aren't you ready to go to bed?" Xu Wanyue typed.

"It's still early. I can't sleep. Do you want to play a game?"

"I can't play computer games..."

"I'll teach you. Aim and shoot. It's very simple."

"Oh...wait for me..."

"Ok?"

"In Sese."

"Then how did you type with me?"

"Voice input."

"Can we talk directly?"

"No."

"Can I take a look at Sese?"

"No."

"Cry."

"It's no use acting coquettishly this time." Xu Wanyue put her lips close to the phone and sent a voice message this time. Her voice trembled slightly, and her gentle voice became so seductive at this moment.

....................................

The next day.

Lin Cheng and Lu Xiaoxiao practiced swords for another half a day. After half a day, Lin Cheng began to patiently talk to Lu Xiaoxiao about the matter of competitiveness. He muttered a lot. Lu Xiaoxiao raised her face slightly, "You think of me as a child, don't you?"

"Yeah, I always feel like crying when you lose."

"I won't." Lu Xiaoxiao gave him a sad look.

.......................................

A neon city.

Ji Zhezhi and Qin Wutong are shopping.

Qin Wutong bought a lot of new clothes, but Ji Zhezhi just looked at them most of the time. The store was full of summer and autumn clothes, and Ji Zhezhi didn't like clothes that exposed her skin in front of outsiders. Qin Wutong even dragged her to a cheongsam shop and tried on several cheongsams. Qin Wutong had a slender and slightly plump figure, and she looked dignified and elegant in a cheongsam, with a hint of austerity.

Although Ji Zhezhi had a slender and well-proportioned figure, unfortunately, the store did not have any cheongsams that fit her curve on her chest. If she must buy one, she would have to have it custom-made. However, with her slender figure, it would be difficult to show off her figure when she wore it. As they were shopping, they came to a Hanfu store. Ji Zhezhi stopped for a moment in front of a chest-length skirt. The design of it, which was an interweaving of white and purple, was cool and elegant. She looked at it quietly for a while and then bought it.

Qin Wutong was quite surprised by this.

"You actually know how to buy clothes? I'll give this one to you."

In Qin Wutong's eyes, Ji Zhezhi was a person who was extremely minimalist. In her paradise, she could wash and change three sets of the same clothes over and over again. Even when she bought new clothes during the holidays, she would have them custom-made by the tailor in the town, with the same style, long gowns and long skirts. But this time, it was rare to see her wanting to dress up prettier.

"I have money." Ji Zhezhi indifferently rejected Qin Wutong's suggestion and bought the Hanfu. Qin Wutong wanted to grab Ji Zhezhi and go shopping in the snack street again, but Ji Zhezhi was not interested. She took a taxi home silently, typing clumsily on the keyboard, searching for videos on how to weave hair suitable for this dress, and began to learn from the videos seriously.

The next day, when Qin Wutong and Ji Zhezhi went shopping again, she bought a handmade hairpin. Qin Wutong still felt something was wrong, "Why didn't you wear the new clothes you bought yesterday?"

"I bought it because I thought it looked good. You can wear it when you want." Ji Zhezhi replied calmly.

231 Cold Ice

The next day, early morning.

Ji Zhezhi booked a new room next to hers last night on the pretext that this guy couldn't sleep because he was grinding his teeth. She woke up very early and took a cold shower first. After wiping all the water droplets on her porcelain white body with a towel, she slowly put on her underwear in front of the mirror. The underwear was bought by Qin Wutong and her a few days ago. Although the underwear they wore in the past two years were also exquisitely made, the material was still worse than that outside.

Ji Zhezhi put on her clothes carefully, her fingertips slowly sliding down from her lower abdomen, and her eyes moved slightly. She had obviously eaten well in the past few years, but her figure was still so slim. She was not too thin, but the thinness of her chest was probably inherited from her mother... At the age of 22 this year, she should not change much.

Ji Zhezhi changed into the dress she had bought, sat in front of the mirror, and began to draw her eyebrows carefully. If Qin Wutong was here at this moment, she would definitely be surprised, because Ji Zhezhi had never put on any makeup on her face for so many years, but at this moment she was actually seriously dressing up.

She put on the elegant Hanfu long skirt, put white socks on her fair feet, stepped into white embroidered shoes, and then began to braid her hair carefully. Her hands were very deft. It only took her a few minutes to braid her hair and insert the hairpin. The woman in front of the mirror had beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and the coldness in her eyes seemed like eternal ice.

Ji Zhezhi took out his cell phone, called an online taxi, and came to the downstairs of Ji Quan's hotel. The moment Ji Quan saw Ji Zhezhi, his jaw dropped. He rubbed his eyes and couldn't help but complain, "Cousin, you..."

Ji Zhezhi just looked at him coldly, and he shut up silently, saying, "I'll take a taxi, and we'll go to that woman's house... I just received intelligence recently that the woman is actually a super-connected person in the alliance, cousin... If she loses to me and disobeys the rules and asks someone to beat me up, you have to help me, because she's not beating me, she's beating the reputation of our Ji family..."

"Do you think you haven't brought shame to the Ji family enough?" Ji Zhezhi asked calmly.

Ji Quan shut up silently.

All the young people of their generation are afraid of Ji Zhezhi.

When they were young, they were good friends with the younger generations of the Qin family. They always instigated the younger generations of the Qin family to tease Ji Zhezhi. Ji Quan was ignorant before and put a caterpillar in her school pencil case... Then when he woke up that night, he found a cold snake wrapped around his neck.

It is a coral snake with its fangs removed.

After that, Ji Quan didn't sleep well for several nights. Later, anyone who had played a prank on Ji Zhezhi because she was cute and pretty when she was a child was retaliated against within just a few days. Some people even avoided Ji Zhezhi when they saw her later. However, even the adults in the family couldn't find any evidence, so they had to give up.

Later, they began to practice sword and knife skills, and Ji Zhezhi's talent soon emerged. In the past, Ji Quan had been beaten by Ji Zhezhi many times, and even a wooden sword would leave bruises on his body. Therefore, no one in the younger generation of the Ji family dared to go against her wishes.

So when he saw her cousin suddenly dressed herself up so beautifully at this moment... he felt like he had seen a ghost.

Could it be that his cousin had also fallen and been corrupted by the outside world? What girl doesn't like beautiful girls? Thinking of this, Ji Quan suddenly felt balanced. It seemed that he was not the only one who couldn't resist the temptation.

The two took a taxi, Ji Quan sat in the front seat and Ji Zhezhi sat in the back seat. She opened the window slightly, and the autumn breeze blew on her cheeks, moist and with a hint of the fragrance of golden osmanthus.

Half an hour later, Ji Quan arrived at the place where he had agreed to meet Lu Xiaoxiao.

He and Lu Xiaoxiao added each other's contact information that day just for today's gambling fight. Lu Xiaoxiao and Lin Cheng had been waiting here for a long time. Lin Cheng was of course here to accompany Lu Xiaoxiao. He did not go home last night. Compared to Lu Xiaoxiao's energetic appearance, he looked a little tired.

Being squeezed.
