Wen Renya lowered her eyes and didn't answer his question, but tried hard to withdraw the hand that was held, but it was held more tightly.

"You're afraid of fire." Shen Xiao slowly opened his mouth and came to a conclusion, Wen Renya, who was sitting beside him, raised his head suddenly, his big eyes glowing with terrifying coldness in the firelight.

"I'm just afraid of fire, can't I?!"

Wen Renya doesn't like to expose her weaknesses in front of others, even if it's Shen Xiao, but this man always seems to be able to see through people's hearts, which makes her very unhappy.

She is afraid of fire, this is an animal instinct, her body is human, but there are too many genes belonging to animals in the genes of her previous life, she clearly knows that as long as fire is used reasonably, it will not hurt herself, but that fear is attached to the bone marrow, and the body is always faster than reason.

Even if Wen Renya's body does not have animal genes in this life, the soul in this body is a nighthawk, coming with the memories of her previous life, and she can't completely change her conditioned reflexes.

Shen Xiao obviously didn't expect her to react so much, especially the angry chill in those eyes, which were definitely not the eyes that a child would have.

sighed softly, pulled her into his arms with his hand, gently wrapped the little woman in the crook of his arm, and said softly: "Of course you can be afraid, there are a few people in the world who are not afraid of anything, the princess only needs to remember, as long as there is this king in anything, there is no need to be afraid, I will protect you." ”

You've got you covered.

The four words, gently, softly, and even ignored if you don't want to listen to them, exploded fiercely in Wen Renya's ears, like a thunderbolt, splitting a place that had never been touched.

No one ever said they would protect her, and she never counted on anyone.

The cold night breeze blew silently through the valley, stirring the beating flames and blowing the soft hem of the clothes.

In front of the orange fire, a little woman dressed in red leaned into the arms of a masked man, her head bowed, and her hair hanging down on both sides of her cheeks, as if she were asleep, quietly, silently.

After a long time, she slowly raised her head, a pair of beautiful but overly large eyes looked at the fire in front of her lightly, and said lightly: "I don't need your protection, Shen Xiao...... Don't be so nice to me, I'm not worth it. ”

"Fool, what stupid thing to say, you are my wife, not good to you, who am I going to be good to." Shen Xiao smiled and hugged her tightly, blocking the cold night breeze for her.

This is the wife he identifies as, who does not protect her, who does he protect.

Wen Renya shook her head, did not continue to insist on refuting him, but closed her eyes quietly, such gentleness was as if she was borrowed, and she would not occupy it for too long, too long.

She is not her wife, she is not Wen Renya, she is just a lonely soul floating from another world, she can't stand such feelings.

One day he will know the truth of everything, and then......

She was willing to return all that belonged to him, and deserved to repay him for what he had said.

The noon night was still as long as ever, and when Shen Xiao left the valley with Wen Renya and the little snow lion, it was still dark, and there was no appearance at all that it should be in the morning.

Wen Renya only squinted for more than an hour, and spent the rest of the time collecting medicinal herbs.

The precious medicinal materials in the valley are encountered, don't be in vain, there will always be a time when they will be used.
