The cold and stern woman gritted her teeth without making a sound, even if she was stabbed several times, she still didn't flinch.
Ning Zhishui saw with his own eyes that she could barely lift her eyelids, but she still swam stubbornly and "weaved" all those people into the net.
"Walk!"
She spoke, but not to Ning Zhishui, but to the confidant holding her.
Ning Zhishui couldn't see the expression of the person behind him clearly, but she could only hear him let out a muffled cry, then turned around angrily and left, swimming upwards vigorously.
Ning Zhishui wanted to stop him, wanted to struggle, but he didn't even have the strength to open his mouth!
Then, there was a dull sound of explosion behind him, and Ning Zhishui watched helplessly as the one-armed woman smiled towards him, and then turned into a bloody flower along with those people.
The blood flowers exploded in the water, extremely gorgeous, the red color changed from thick to light, and slowly bloomed, like fireworks in the water.
But that figure was no longer visible.
Ning Zhishui stood blankly in the yard, looking at Jiaqing from a distance. She was as cold and stern as she remembered, without the cuteness and joy of a young girl at all.
But Ning Zhishui couldn't help but smile, and the smile got bigger and bigger.
Hua Jiaqing suddenly felt a burning gaze. When she raised her head, she met Ning Zhishui's crying and smiling face.
She was stunned, "Why are you here?"
"I told Hua Zhaoxing's parents that I wanted to live with you tonight, and they agreed." Ning Zhishui blinked and her vision became clear again. As she spoke, she walked towards Hua Jiaqing.
Hua Jiaqing didn't notice Ning Zhishui's slightly hoarse voice when she spoke. She only noticed that her expression was strange and she looked at her with a warm look.
Then, she realized what Ning Zhishui said.
Live with yourself?
This made Hua Jiaqing, who had always been cold and didn't like to interact with others, frown and said, "I don't live with others. You can find someone else. Besides, there should be a lot of empty houses here."
"Please lead the way."
Ning Zhishui turned around and told the maid.
The maid bowed and excused herself.
After she left, Ning Zhishui sighed, "I can't help it, Jia Qing, you don't know, Hua Zhaoxing's parents actually want to bring us together! How old do you think I am? ? If I don't find someone to live with me, I'm really afraid of what they will do at night... The only person I know in the Hua family is you, so I can only ask you to protect me. Don't worry, I'll leave tomorrow and I'll only live in one room. Just be late.”
As he spoke, he smiled at Hua Jiaqing.
Hua Jiaqing felt incredible, "Bringing you and third brother together?"
Her eyes almost popped out of her head.
It was rare for her face to have such a lively expression, but her sudden appearance seemed a bit funny, and Ning Zhishui actually laughed.
"How is it possible...what do they see in you?" Jiaqing couldn't help but wonder.
There was no sarcasm in her words, just confusion in the literal sense.
She knew the temperament of Hua Zhaoxing's parents very well. They were not really evil people, but they were not exempt from vulgarity and valued family status just like many people.
They loved Hua Zhaoxing so much that ordinary women would never fall in their eyes. Ning Zhishui was so young, what was it about her that attracted them?
"Probably because they know that I am a disciple of the Xianlai Sect... Forget it, that's not important, I have no idea about them anyway." Ning Zhishui chuckled, "Just help me out tonight, okay?"
Hua Jiaqing looked at her and hesitated, "Are you sure you want to live here?"
She pointed to her side, indicating that she could see the surroundings clearly.
Ning Zhishui nodded, "Sure, it will be over as soon as you practice. I won't pick the place."
Hua Jiaqing is also a neat person, so after hearing what she said, she agreed, "Okay, just thank you for helping me today. But let's make it clear first, there are patients in my family. If you dislike it, you can regret and leave at any time."
"how come."
Hua Jiaqing turned around holding the picked medicinal materials and said, "Come in and sit down."
"okay."
As soon as he entered the house, his vision was dimmed, and at the same time there was a strong smell of herbs.
"Jia Qing...who are you talking to?"
An old male voice said breathlessly. After speaking, his throat seemed to be dry and itchy, so he coughed uncontrollably.
"Dad, this is..."
"Hello, uncle, I am Jia Qing's friend Ning Zhishui. You can just call me Xiao Ning." Ning Zhishui stepped forward with a smile and glanced at Hua Jiaqing as he spoke.
She had no other reaction, probably because she didn't know who she was.
Also, Jiaqing has always been immersed in her own affairs and never paid attention to irrelevant people and things.
I guess even if I had heard the rumors, I had immediately forgotten them.
Ning Zhishui looked away and looked at the man lying on the bed.
This man was lying with a sallow face. Only his neck could move, and his body was very stiff.
His eyes were extremely cloudy and his face looked old, but he was very kind.
"Friends of Jiaqing...please sit down quickly." The man moved to entertain Ning Zhishui, but he couldn't move at all, so he said apologetically, "I'm inconvenienced, I'm sorry."
"It doesn't matter, we are all our own. Uncle, do you want some water? I'll pour you some."
Just as Ning Zhishui was about to move, Hua Jiaqing put the basket on the table, went to the table first to pour water, and then came to the bed.
She helped the man up and carefully fed him water. He drank in small sips, but he coughed again after drinking only a little.
At this time, Hua Jiaqing would take the cup farther away, pat his back, and wait until he stopped coughing before feeding him again.
It was just a glass of water, but the man was so sweaty that he barely drank half of it.
The other half was spilled.
After Hua Jiaqing finished feeding, she put him back on the bed, and then glanced at Ning Zhishui.
Ning Zhishui stretched out his hand and cast a spell on him to clean up the water stains.
Hua Jiaqing looked at her expression and made sure that there was no trace of boredom or disgust on Ning Zhishui's face before she withdrew her gaze.
"Xiao Ning... ahem, Jia Qing has a bad temper, please bear with her, but she is a good child, attentive and kind-hearted, and values feelings." The man gasped.
Ning Zhishui nodded, "Of course I know, she is cold on the outside but hot on the inside, I understand."
The man then showed a smile.
At this time, there was a sudden stench in the house, and the smell became stronger and stronger.
The man was stunned for a moment, and then he realized something. His face suddenly turned red and embarrassed, "You guys go out, I, I want to sleep for a while."
As soon as Ning Zhishui came to his senses, he saw Hua Jiaqing perform a trick without changing her expression, "It's okay, Dad, you're just sick, it's okay."
After saying that, he looked at Ning Zhishui and said, "Go out and wait for me first."
"Let uncle sleep for a while. Let's go out together. I want to talk to you." Ning Zhishui took Jiaqing's hand and walked out with a smile.
