"Zhao Zhao!"
Chu Qingxiao chased Chu Zhaozhao for a long time, shouting loudly while chasing.
But the girl in front turned a deaf ear to this and just walked on.
Chu Qingxiao could only keep following, but Chu Zhaozhao obviously wanted to go against him. Whenever Chu Qingxiao wanted to catch up, she would speed up and distance herself.
The two of them chased each other until they arrived at the gate of their home.
Chu Qingxiao just grabbed Chu Zhaozhao's hand from behind.
Chu Zhaozhao's face turned redder and redder, and he wanted to break away, but Chu Qingxiao wanted to understand why the other party was suddenly angry, and held her hand tightly to prevent Chu Zhaozhao from leaving.
Chu Zhaozhao couldn't resist Chu Qingxiao, so he stamped his feet, stared at Chu Qingxiao with a red face and said, "What are you doing?"
Chu Qingxiao looked at the blushing Chu Zhaozhao, and his heart trembled. At that moment, he felt that Chu Zhaozhao looked so beautiful, and he was a little dazed for a moment.
Chu Zhaozhao saw that Chu Qingxiao didn't reply for a long time, but just looked at her straightly. This made Chu Zhaozhao feel strange in her heart. She was a little flustered, but also a little expectant and whispered: "You...you are staring at me. do what?"
When Chu Qingxiao heard this, he finally came to his senses.
His face was also a little red for no reason, because of the strange feeling in his heart just now.
He was also a little flustered and quickly explained: "Zhaozhao, don't be angry. I didn't just suspect that you didn't trust me..."
"It's just that these days, I've been worried about the seven-room trial. I'm a little bit wary, and that's why I became suspicious when you said those words..."
After thinking about it, Chu Qingxiao felt that the only way he might have offended Chu Zhaozhao was probably his reaction when Chu Zhaozhao mentioned Fan Yuanwu's words just now. Thinking about it now, it was indeed a bit extreme.
Chu Zhaozhao looked at Chu Qingxiao's flustered face and found it inexplicably funny. He also felt that the other party seemed to care about him.
But beyond that, she was a little disappointed.
Probably with this guy's slender head, trying to get him to understand the thoughts of his daughters is almost tantamount to wishful thinking.
She thought like this, bit her silver teeth, and mustered up the courage to look up at Chu Qingxiao: "Qingxiao."
Her voice was soft and soft.
Chu Qingxiao looked at Chu Zhaozhao, whose attitude suddenly softened. He couldn't figure out the way and asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Zhaozhao."
"You...you think I..." Chu Zhaozhao looked shy, thinking about how to enlighten the idiot in front of him.
"How am I doing?"
Chu Qingxiao blinked and felt the charming atmosphere on the scene at this moment.
His mouth was inexplicably dry: "I...I think you are very good..."
After receiving such an answer, Chu Zhaozhao felt sweet in his heart, and then asked: "Then..."
Clang.
She was about to say something else, but at this moment the courtyard door was pushed open from the inside.
But it was Song Qingqing who pushed open the door and walked out at this moment.
The two people standing face to face were startled. They quickly turned their heads and distanced themselves in an awkward and panicful manner.
"Qingqing...are you here?" Chu Qingxiao looked at Song Qingqing with a guilty conscience, and greeted Song Qingqing with a smile.
At this moment, Chu Zhaozhao wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
She lowered her head, blushed with embarrassment, and did not dare to look at Song Qingqing.
"Coming?" Song Qingqing stood at the door. Hearing Chu Qingxiao's words, his face looked strange: "I'm going out, why are I here?"
After saying this, she looked at the sneaky two people suspiciously: "What are you two doing sneaking outside the door? Why don't you come in?"
"We...we just arrived. Before we could knock on the door, you opened the door." Chu Qingxiao explained with an embarrassed look.
"Is that so?" Song Qingqing obviously still didn't believe it.
"By the way, Qingqing, isn't this lunch time? What are you doing out there?" Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Chu Qingxiao quickly changed the subject and asked.
Song Qingqing, who was usually clever and eccentric, naturally saw that Chu Qingxiao was changing the subject. She glanced at Chu Zhaozhao who was blushing and silent, but she didn't point it out: "You are not being fooled by that guy Zhu Quan. Have you gone to the Mirror Stage? I haven’t come back since I’ve been wondering for so long, so I want to take a look.”
Chu Qingxiao went to the Mirror Tower, but he didn't have much of a conversation with Mr. Meng, so he left early, and spent the rest of the time wandering around Tianxuan City with Chu Zhaozhao, which was why he was delayed for so long. .
Logically speaking, there is nothing to hide after such an experience.
But Chu Qingxiao felt guilty for no apparent reason and did not dare to say it clearly. He just said: "I just came back. I met Zhao Zhao on the road, so we walked together..."
At this point, he paused and said as if he had just woken up from a dream: "Speaking of which, it's already noon. Is Sister Sanniang's meal ready? I'll go see what's delicious for lunch today. of."
After Chu Qingxiao said this, he winked at Chu Zhaozhao who was standing aside, and then ran into the hospital with a haha as if running away.
When Chu Zhaozhao saw Chu Qingxiao leaving, his heart tightened, and he followed the same pattern and said: "Yes, yes, I'm hungry too, Qingxiao, let's go together."
As she spoke, she took steps forward and hurriedly tried to catch up with Chu Qingxiao.
But just when he passed by Song Qingqing, Song Qingqing grabbed Chu Zhaozhao.
Chu Zhaozhao was stunned and looked at Song Qingqing with a puzzled expression.
Song Qingqing squinted her eyes, stared at Chu Zhaozhao, and asked with a smile: "Some people keep saying that they want to help the junior uncle keep an eye on brother Qingxiao, but in the end they just keep watch on themselves. Chu Zhaozhao, you think such a person has something in his belly." Aren’t you pretending to be full of bad water?”
Chu Zhaozhao's heart thumped. She was so guilty that she didn't dare to retort to Song Qingqing's words like before. She could only struggle with her arms that were squeezed by Song Qingqing and said: "I don't understand what you are talking about. I...I'm hungry." , I’m going to eat..."
Song Qingqing also knew that with Chu Zhaozhao's character, she would never admit this. She squinted her eyes and said meaningfully: "No matter how hungry you are, there is no reason to eat alone."
After saying this, she let go of Chu Zhaozhao's hand and turned around, leaving Chu Zhaozhao blushing with embarrassment and stamping his feet angrily.
…
"Come! Let's drink this cup together. Congratulations to Chu Qingxiao for passing the seven-court trial!"
"From now on, I can live an upright life!"
In the wooden pavilion in the courtyard, Lu Sandao raised the wine jar in his hand with a smile on his face and said loudly to everyone.
Everyone around him was also smiling, and their worries for many days were finally settled as Chu Qingxiao successfully passed the seven-court trial.
Everyone also raised their glasses and were about to clink glasses with Lu Sandao.
"I'll do it first as a token of respect!" Lu Sandao said, then he put the wine jar to his mouth, raised his head and drank heavily.
The posture made everyone tremble with fear, and they couldn't figure out where Lu Sandao got such a good drinker. He drank a third of the half-man tall wine jar in one breath, but he was still not satisfied and kept slurping. Swallowing.
Some wine spilled from the corner of her mouth, making her clothes wet and clinging to her snow-white skin, showing off her proud figure even more vividly.
Song Qingqing glanced at the majestic thing on the other person's chest with some envy, and said dissatisfiedly: "You drunkard, you are obviously looking for an excuse to drink!"
"Xiao Qingqing, you can't say that. I am happy for Xiao Qingxiao from the bottom of my heart." Lu Sandao put down the wine jar, stretched out his hand to wipe the wine stains from the corners of his mouth, and said with unfinished meaning: "Everyone is happy when something happens. If you can’t drink three cups or two cups, what’s the point of living?”
Song Qingqing rolled his eyes: "Hmph, I think brother Qingxiao is really in trouble today and is detained by those bastards. You may not be able to stop drinking."
"Of course." Lu Sandao did not refute, but admitted calmly.
"Humph, this is incredible." Song Qingqing sneered.
"But that's not drinking for the sake of drinking. It's because Xiao Qingxiao is in trouble and I can't help him, so he is extremely sad and uses wine to relieve his sorrow!" But Lu Sandao said slowly.
"..." As soon as these words came out, everyone present was speechless...
Lu Sandao was obviously invincible when it came to the "heterodox" matter of drinking, and discussing this matter with her was probably humiliating himself.
"Okay, today is a good day, Qingqing, please don't make it difficult for Miss Lu. Miss Lu can drink it with confidence. If it's not enough, I have prepared a few jars in the kitchen..." Xue Sanniang also intervened at this time.
"More!?" Lu Sandao's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing this.
Xue Sanniang smiled and nodded. Just as she was about to respond, there was a sudden knock on the door of the courtyard.
"Who is it?" Lu Sandao, who was disturbed by his drinking temperament, felt unhappy and asked loudly towards the courtyard gate.
The visitor outside the courtyard door did not respond, but kept knocking on the door.
Everyone suddenly felt nervous and slightly uneasy. They put down their bowls and chopsticks, then Chu Qingxiao stood up and walked to the courtyard door and opened it.
As soon as the courtyard door opened, a tall, dark-skinned man wearing half armor was seen standing outside the courtyard door.
After seeing the other person's appearance clearly, Chu Qingxiao frowned and said, "Is it you?"
