"I'm fine." Xia Luotong replied, looking up from Wu Zechen's arms.
She originally felt that the hug was a little tight, and wanted to ask him to loosen his arms, but after seeing his face clearly, she couldn't help but fell into confusion for a moment again.
His brows were furrowed, and the nervousness and concern in his eyes could not be faked. The tense muscles on his body and the tightly hugged posture of his arms all showed that the emotions he showed at this time were real.
At this moment, she suddenly realized that he cared about her...
This discovery made her slightly stunned, but the joy that emerged in her heart also made her unable to ignore it.
It wasn't until this moment that she realized that she had started to care about the man in front of her. Because she cared, she would be happy when she saw that he also cared about her.
She cares about him, but to what extent does she care? Does it mean you like it? She doesn't know, because she has never experienced it, let alone what it feels like to like someone...
Just when Xia Luotong was confused, Wu Zechen breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was not injured.
Just now, when he saw the bowl of hot soup being thrown at her, he felt extremely nervous. He was afraid that she would be slightly hurt, so he subconsciously protected her in his arms and left the range of the bowl of soup. Then, not feeling relieved, she raised her hand to sweep up a strong wind, forcing the sweet soup away to prevent the spilled soup from spilling on her body.
Noticing the stunned look on her face, he didn't know what she was thinking at this moment. He only thought that she was frightened, so she didn't come back to her senses for a while.
"ah--!"
Just when he was about to say something, a harsh scream beside him stopped his unspoken words. The sharp and painful sound suddenly sounded in the banquet hall, interrupting all the guests who were chatting. At the same time, it also attracted the attention of all the guests.
Xia Luotong, who was being protected by Wu Zechen at this time, was also brought back to his thoughts by the scream. He subconsciously turned his head to look at the source of the sound, only to see the girl in pink covering her face with her hands, making a painful sound. She was crying and shouting, completely losing her weak look just now.
At the same time, a lady suddenly rushed out and rushed to the girl in pink clothes. It was her mother. While calling for a doctor, she asked anxiously about the girl in pink clothes. But at this time, the girl in pink clothes was her mother. The girl in clothes only felt the burning pain on her face, and didn't care about anything else. She only kept whining in pain, and even roughly slapped away the lady's extended hand.
There was chaos in the banquet hall. Mrs. Li quickly directed the maids to deal with the scene, while all the guests asked each other and discussed what had just happened.
"Why did that sweet soup get on her face?" Xia Luotong looked at Wu Zechen beside him with some confusion.
Only then did she realize that she was still in his arms. Their bodies were close to each other and they looked intimate. Suddenly her cheeks were stained with a thin blush, making her look even more charming.
"It's okay, let me go." As she said that, she moved uncomfortably, trying to get out of his arms, but she couldn't leave at all. Although his arms were warm, they were as unshakable as a rock. , her movements only increased the physical friction between the two of them, making her face even redder.
Realizing that she couldn't leave his arms at all, Xia Luotong stopped struggling and just looked up at Wu Zechen, her eyes suggesting that he let go quickly.
However, Wu Zechen seemed not to have seen her hint, his hands remained motionless, but he replied: "That sweet soup was opened casually when I was protecting you just now, and some of it happened to be sprinkled on her face. "
He answered her questions, but showed no reaction to her request to let go, as if he didn't hear her at all.
How could Xia Luotong not see his little thoughts? She couldn't help but stare at that moment, but before she could speak again, she heard him speak first.
"That burn doesn't seem right..."
Xia Luotong saw Wu Zechen frowning and looking at the wailing girl in pink, with a look of confusion on his face.
Xia Luotong knew the situation of the girl in pink, but he did not immediately answer Wu Zechen's words. Instead, he said: "I know what happened to her. Let go and I will tell you the answer."
She didn't hate Wu Zechen's embrace. This discovery surprised her, but there were many guests in the banquet hall. The eyes of these guests always glanced at the two of them from time to time, obviously peeking at their postures at this time, which made her She felt particularly embarrassed.
Although they need to show a loving look, perhaps it is due to the change in mentality, and she has noticed the strangeness in her emotions, so it is difficult for her to be as indifferent as usual.
How could Wu Zechen not see that she was unusual at this time? The slightly evasive look in his eyes, and the boundless red clouds filled with spring scenery, both made him unable to help but feel his heart beat, and the joy in his heart was even more indescribable. Was she finally enlightened?
Her eyes were filled with joy, but her face still pretended not to be aware of it, and she said seriously: "It doesn't matter what she does, it has nothing to do with me, but you can't be hurt in any way, because I will feel sorry for you."
His intention was very clear and he would not let go.
Xia Luotong, who was in a different state of mind, naturally no longer reacted as before when she heard his words like this again. She was stunned for a moment, then her face turned red and she glared at him in embarrassment.
This stinky man! How dare you pretend to be stupid with her!
What does he mean? !
She had already reacted at this time, and naturally she would not stupidly attribute all this to acting. After all, the two of them were whispering so softly at this time, and it was impossible for others to hear them, so if it was acting, either There is no need to say these words at all, or you should say them loudly so that others can hear.
At this time, she only felt that her mind was a little messy, and she didn't understand many things. Various scenes of the two of them getting along before flashed in her mind, making her feel a little at a loss for a moment.
She felt that it was necessary for her to take a quiet moment and think about the matter carefully.
But not now, the current situation is obviously not suitable.
Seeing that this man was determined to cheat and not let go, Xia Luotong couldn't do anything else at this time to avoid complications.
She had no choice but to let him hold her in his arms for the time being and talk about the sweet soup just now.
