Sweet Flower Lane.
Diao Ruru sat at home, staring blankly at the flickering candlelight on the table.
For some reason, she always felt uneasy.
There is still tonight's meal on the table, which is already cold.
This is the result of her repeated efforts three times.
Diao Ruru has been waiting since dinner and has been waiting until now.
The sky is dark and the night is as cold as water.
Diao Ruru was panicking, and bad conjectures popped up in her mind uncontrollably.
"Is nothing going to happen?"
"Why haven't you gone home yet?"
"It's almost time..."
"The martial arts school should close before the sun sets."
"Diao Deyi also said that he doesn't like the food in the martial arts school and insists on going home to eat every day..."
"What happened... I won't let anyone come back with any news, just to make people worry..."
Thinking that something might happen to Diao Deyi, Diao Ruru couldn't help but blush slightly.
Since her eldest brother disappeared, she has become more and more sentimental. Whenever something happens, she can't help but think about the worst.
Tap tap tap!
At this moment, rapid footsteps sounded outside the street.
Diao Ruru suddenly sat up, walked to the door quickly, and looked out through the ajar door.
Her mood was both nervous and scared.
The incident of Brother Tiger breaking into the house yesterday was still vivid in his mind.
And Sweet Flower Lane is not a peaceful place.
At night, all the peaceful people closed their doors and went back to their houses to rest.
On the streets, generally no one walks around.
If there is any movement, it's basically someone with bad intentions, or something happened.
The footsteps were already approaching her home. Diao Ruru thought for a while, trotted back to the kitchen, and took out the only broken kitchen knife in the house.
As soon as the person left the kitchen, the door creaked and was pushed open.
Diao Ruru was so frightened that she immediately grasped the handle of the kitchen knife with both hands and pointed it at the person at the door.
But wait and take a closer look...
"Diao Deyi?!"
Diao Ruru said in surprise.
She saw her brother with something tied to his chest, and his clothes were in tatters, as if they had been eaten by a dog.
His body was also dirty, as if he had rolled in the dark mud.
But the man came back safely.
The big stone on Diao Ruru's chest was put down, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
Fang Yu also saw Diao Ruru holding a kitchen knife at this time and was stunned.
"Second sister, what are you doing?"
Diao Ruru also reacted.
"No, it's nothing!"
Her face was slightly red, but her emotions were full of joy and happiness.
"You're finally back!"
First, he put the kitchen knife back in the kitchen, then trotted to close the door and lock it. Finally feeling a little safer in his heart, he let out a big breath.
Immediately, she turned her head and her cheeks bulged slightly, which was a small gesture of anger.
"Why are you back so late! The food is cold. Do you know that I..."
Before Diao Ruru could finish speaking, her voice suddenly stopped like a jam. Her watery eyes widened, her face was full of shock and horror, and she even took a step back in fright.
"Diao, Diao Deyi?! You, you, you, where is your heart??"
I saw Fang Yu, who had just returned, untied the baggage tied to his chest and still casually sitting on the wooden bench.
Then the hollow chest was exposed to the air.
But Fang Yu stood on the chair as if nothing was wrong, while still picking at the dishes on the table. I finally found a piece of shredded pork, picked it up with chopsticks and was about to eat it when I heard the second sister’s voice.
"Oh, I met a demon on the road and my heart was scratched to pieces. I picked it up and put it in here."
Fang Yu pointed at the dirty bundle on the wooden bench. While eating the shredded pork in the chopsticks.
Not to mention, the second sister is good at cooking, much better than Sister Jin anyway.
Moreover, the food was said to be cold, but in fact it was still a little warm.
You don't need to think about it to know how long it has been since the food was ready. If it is still warm, it must be because the second sister has stir-fried it several times.
Fang Yu felt slightly warm in his heart.
But Diao Ruru next to her was stunned.
The heart... was scratched to pieces? Did you pack it up and bring it back?
etc!
Diao Ruru reacted immediately and rushed to Fang Yu's side.
"Monster?! Did you meet a monster?! Are you okay? Are you injured anywhere? Do you want to go see a doctor?"
His words were full of concern.
Concern leads to chaos, and he even forgets that the biggest injury on Fang Yu's body is the hole in his chest.
Yesterday, I only half-believed my identity as a human being.
Where is the half? It's clear that he completely trusts me.
Fang Yu gently held the second sister's hands, which were cold and soft.
"Second sister, I'm fine! Brother Tiger didn't attack my heart yesterday, so I couldn't still be alive and kicking."
"That's different! At that time, you just had your heart stabbed, and now your heart is gone!"
The second sister said anxiously with red eyes, completely panicked and confused.
Fang Yu quickly comforted him and even jumped up and down a few times to show his health.
The second sister's mood became more stable now, but her face was stained with tears. She had already shed tears just now.
"Let's talk while eating."
Fang Yu ate, but the second sister didn't move her chopsticks.
"Second sister?"
"……I have already eaten."
Diao Ruru was still worried, looking at Fang Yu with worry on her face.
"I'm really fine! Have you forgotten how I was fine last time?"
The second sister shook her head: "I...don't remember?"
Fang Yu was stunned, and then he remembered that Yue Guang seemed to have knocked the second sister unconscious before curing my injury.
"Actually, I don't know for sure. Maybe I can just eat more and get some sleep."
Fang Yu laughed, but after hearing this, the second sister immediately got up and went to the kitchen.
"What are you doing?"
"Cake a fire and make you something to eat."
Fang Yu wanted to stop it, but seeing the second sister's reaction and not letting her do something, she might not be able to feel at ease, so she said no more.
While the second sister was cooking, Fang Yu swept all the food on the table.
I can’t help it, I’m hungry!
People who practice martial arts have a great need for food supplements.
Food enters the stomach and turns into qi and blood. The qi and blood quench the body and feed itself back.
This is a set of energy cycles.
Fang Yu is powerful and has a long stamina bar, but he also needs to eat a lot to ensure that he can exert his due strength.
Three more dishes were served. Fang Yu saw that the second sister was out of breath, so he asked her to sit down and eat too.
This time, the second sister did not refuse, and her mood had relaxed a lot.
"How did you escape from the demon?" the second sister suddenly asked.
Fang Yu was stunned.
Sure enough, when people calm down, they think more.
Fortunately, Fang Yu was prepared.
"I was chased by demons. Fortunately, I met two adults from Juhu from Yuji Palace who came to rescue me, and I took the opportunity to escape."
"Juhu? Is this Lord Rei Qianxuan?"
"No, they are two adults I don't know."
"..."
The second sister said nothing more and ate in silence, not knowing how much she believed in her heart.
But after eating, he suddenly stood up.
"Tomorrow, I'll go find the doctor to look at your injury."
Fang Yu couldn't laugh or cry.
"Doctors don't know anything about demon curses?"
