"Are you hungry?"

"Yes, I'm hungry!" Gao Zhan looked back and smiled, jumped up, and jumped down: "I rushed all the way from Huaxi Town to here, and there were a few fights on the road, can you not be hungry." Don't worry, I won't eat your food for nothing, I'll help you get those meals to the backyard. ”

"It's good to know that you can't eat for nothing." Bai Li shouted at the top of his voice, seeing that those lepers did not chase Gao Zhan, but looked up at him with a brush, and sat down with his neck bent. "This surname is high, and the person is not so bad. Am I talking hard to hear? Is it always scaremongering? I didn't think I was such a mean person. ”

"Why is my Li'er mean?"

"Bai Ze? When did you come? Bai Li looked behind her. The back was empty, and even the streets were empty.

"On the right." Without waiting for Bai Li's head to turn to the right, a string of rock sugar gourds was handed over: "I met it on the road, and I thought you liked to eat it, so I brought a bunch." ”

"Thank you!" Bai Li happily took the rock sugar gourd and took a bite, the crispy and licked sugar and the sweet and sour hawthorn intertwined in the mouth, bringing a wonderful taste bud experience. "The hawthorn is delicious, and the heat of the syrup is just right."

"There aren't many people who can get praise from our family. Why don't I try it too? Bai Ze was joking, but he never thought that Bai Li would really hand over the sugar gourd.

"Taste it, it tastes really good, it should be the best sugar gourd I've ever tasted."

"Let me eat?" The base of Bai Ze's ears is slightly red.

"Sorry, I forgot, I just took half a bite." Looking at the half of the hawthorn reserved above, there were still a few shallow tooth marks on it, Bai Li was a little embarrassed and a little embarrassed, and was about to bite the remaining half of the hawthorn, but saw Bai Ze leaning over and swallowing the half directly.

"That's what I've eaten."

"It's delicious."

"I mean, I bit that hawthorn just now, you can wait until I'm done eating, and then eat the whole one." Bai Li explained with a blushing face.

"I don't mind." Bai Ze smiled: "As long as it's something that my family Li'er has eaten, I don't mind." ”

"But I-" Bai Li felt weird, but couldn't tell what it was, "Well, do you want to eat another one?" ”

"No, I'll just taste it. In this way, I know what kind of rock sugar gourd my Li'er likes to eat. ”

"Bai Ze, why are you so good to me?" Bai Li took a bite of the hawthorn gently, but his mind was no longer on the food.

"Do you need a reason to be nice to you?" Bai Ze seemed to have something more in his eyes: "Okay, if you really want to know, it's that I like you, I want to give you the best things in the world, and then protect you, spoil you, and try to make you happy every day." ”

"Like me? Why do you like me? Bai Li frowned: "I'm not ugly, but I'm not a beauty who captivates the country and the city." I have an average figure, the front is not convex and the back is not warped, to put it bluntly, I am a yellow-haired girl who has not grown and has been malnourished for a long time. Also, what Gao Zhan said about me just now, I also thought about it carefully. I won't be able to do this lady, and I won't be able to do it in the little jasper. My only specialty is that I can eat, I can eat. If I had to add one, it would be that I can cook, and I can do it well. But being able to cook can only be regarded as a plus, not a must, so what do you like about me? ”

"Like is like, how can there be so many why?" Bai Ze gently pinched the tip of Bai Li's nose: "Maybe it's God's destined fate, in short, the moment I saw you, I had a very strange feeling for you, and then I couldn't help but want to get close to you and like you." Of course, liking the dishes you cook is also one of them. ”

"But it's hard for me to speak, in Gao Zhan's words, it's a little mean. This mean girl is always unpleasant, and if I talk to myself, I will hate myself. ”

"That's not meanness, it's self-preservation." Bai Ze looked at Bai Li very seriously: "Generally, girls with bad tempers and poisonous mouths are girls who have no one to rely on, and the only thing they can rely on from childhood to adulthood is themselves." But the little girl's family, how can there be a time when they are not angry, in order to protect themselves, they have practiced a nasty skill. ”

"Yes...... Is it? "Somewhere deep inside Bai Li's heart was touched.

"It's not all, some spoiled girls also have bad tempers, but in my opinion, the two bad tempers are not the same."

"So which one do I belong to?"

"Li'er is a self-protective type, but I want you to be the one I spoiled in the future."

"Bai Ze—"

"Li'er asked me before I said it, but I hope Li'er can stick to your heart, if you like me, you like me, don't force yourself if you don't like me. Also, don't be moved by what I just said, and then go against your heart and pretend to like me. ”

"I didn't."

"I know." Bai Ze still had a smile in his eyes: "I understand Li'er's intentions, my Li'er is still young, I'm not in a hurry, I have time." ”

Bai Li didn't know what else she was going to say, and she even regretted what she had just asked Bai Ze. At the moment, the atmosphere seems to be a little weird.

She lowered her head and silently nibbled on the sugar gourd, but when she ate it in her mouth, there was no taste at all.

Seeing that there was only the last half of the hawthorn left, Bai Li finally found a topic that could divert the topic: "That Gao Zhan said just now that you went to the street to find someone." How, find no? ”

"Found it."

"Like them?" Bai Li pointed at the patients below with a bamboo stick.

"Yes, it's the same."

"How many?"

"There were about forty or fifty people, men and women, old and young, I didn't count them."

"What about people?"

"I borrowed an inn and locked them all up." Bai Ze pursed his lips: "No way, there are too many of them, I can't bring them all back to the Chen family's old mansion." Besides, if the target of that demon path is the Chen family's old mansion, wouldn't it be in line with his mind if I brought those people back, wouldn't it be helping to abuse them. ”

"Is the inn safe?"

"Don't worry, the innkeeper and the guys have already been relocated somewhere else, and I have also laid an enchantment around the inn, and asked a friend to help take care of it. Now, I'm not worried about the demon appearing, but I'm worried about him hiding like a mouse. ”

"In my opinion, nine times out of ten, he chose to be a mouse."

"It's okay, make a few rat traps and sprinkle some rat poison later, I don't believe I can't catch him." Bai Ze handed his hand to Bai Li: "It's not too early, let's go to the backyard and have a look." ”
