Ye Ye Academy.
Liu Ru chewed these four words gently in her mouth.
At this time, she was soaking in warm water. There was a burning charcoal fire at the bottom of the iron-clad wooden barrel, so even in such a cold winter, she could take a long and comfortable hot bath.
She needed this pastime to relax her mind and body, which had reached its limit, but at the same time, she also began to think more about her situation.
She had never heard of Ye Ye College, or in other words, she knew nothing about this world before.
Just like those rural people who don't even know about the change of dynasties, they wander around the acres of land in their hometown day after day, year after year, and have never thought about knowing what the outside world is like. .
Until disaster befalls him.
Who is the person who calls himself Su Ziye? What is his identity and purpose? In Liu Ru's opinion, this boy who is about the same age as him already has power comparable to gods and demons, so why does such a person need to go there? How about studying at this place called Ye Ye Academy?
She is just Liu Ru, so she doesn't know all of this.
But at least one thing Liu Ru understood was that Su Ziye had brought him a new life and future. Although he didn't seem to want anything in return from himself, at least Zhien should repay him.
Thinking like this, Liu Ru stood up straight in the barrel and was about to step out.
At this moment, Su Ziye's voice came from outside: "Madam, please wait a moment, the rice is not ready yet, let's soak it for a while."
Liu Ru couldn't help but retract her body back into the warm water, and puffed up bubbles in the water unhappily - it seemed that she really had no secrets at all to him.
…
…
Su Ziye's cooking was simpler than Liu Ru imagined.
A bowl of broth with some green scallions and coriander floating on it, a plate of shredded noodles, and a small plate of red sauce that exudes an alluring aroma.
Liu Ru lowered his head and took a sip of the soup. The rich aroma of meat combined with the sweetness of the soup made people feel like they were in heaven.
"The soup is delicious." Liu Ru praised in a low voice.
If this soup was made by Su Ziye, then his identity would be even more confusing.
After all, cooking is not something someone with status would do.
"You can try eating it with shredded pancakes." Su Ziye said with a smile. As he said this, he picked up the shredded pancakes and put them into Liu Ru's bowl: "Can you eat spicy food? ?”
he asked in passing.
"Spicy?" Watching those thin pancakes slowly sinking into the broth, Liu Ru repeated it hesitantly, then shook her head: "I don't know."
"Then give it a try." Su Ziye continued to smile, scooped out a small spoonful of the red sauce, put it into Liu Ru's bowl, and made a stirring motion with his fingers: "Don't eat it all at once. oh."
Liu Ru nodded and slowly stirred the red sauce with chopsticks. He saw that there was a layer of strange red color floating on the whole broth, and it smelled a little more pungent and spicy but strange. aromatic.
With the mentality that the other party would not poison her, Liu Ru took another sip of the soup. Different from the last time, this time there was some burning pain in the entrance, but it was not intense. Instead, it seemed to be beating on the tongue coating. , the fragrant taste of the meat, which was already very charming, became even more delicious under the searing.
Liu Ru looked at the perilla leaf with great surprise. This was a taste she had never tasted before, but as far as she was concerned, she liked this taste very much.
Liu Ru didn't speak, but her eyes and expression expressed all her unspoken words.
"As long as you can eat spicy food, we will be good friends who do our part." Su Ziye looked at Liu Ru and said with a smile.
Liu Ru nodded silently and continued to eat the bowl of broth.
These red and spicy sauces are very delicious, and the broth is also very delicious. The meat slices inside can bring real satisfaction to people. The noodles soaked in the soup have just the right toughness, with a slightly freshly baked texture. Burnt, it makes people moan from the depths of their souls.
Before this, Liu Ru had not eaten anything decent for a long time, or she had never eaten anything at all, but this simple but delicious meal made her tremble all over.
She buried her head, and big drops of tears fell down into the red soup bowl.
She didn't cry when her parents died in front of her, she didn't cry when she was sold as a slave and tortured, and she didn't cry when she was whipped with leather whips.
But facing this bowl of indescribably delicious broth, she couldn't control herself and cried uncontrollably.
Su Ziye looked at the crying girl quietly, without speaking or comforting her, just looking at her quietly.
Until Liu Ru finally stopped crying and put her mouth close to the soup bowl again.
"I can change a bowl for you." Su Ziye said.
Liu Ru almost shed half a bowl of tears in this bowl of soup.
Liu Ru shook her head stubbornly. She swallowed the broth with her tears in big mouthfuls. Without pausing, she completely put the shredded pancakes and meat slices, the green onions, coriander and broth into her belly. She didn't put the bowl down until there was not a drop left in the bowl.
The girl's eyes were red.
She looked at Su Ziye and bit her lip gently: "Why are you so nice to me?"
If Su Ziye simply wanted to win Liu Ru's heart, then at this moment the girl had undoubtedly fallen completely into the other's tenderness.
Just like why so many young girls fall into the arms of scumbag men, just because those scumbag men can give them tenderness and care that they may never experience in their entire lives.
"Let me tell you a story." Su Ziye looked at the girl with hazy eyes, her expression still showing a faint smile. It seemed that Liu Ru had not moved him at all.
"A long time ago, there was a general who was very good at fighting. He ate, lived and shared joys and sorrows with his soldiers. Once, one of his soldiers had a malignant sore, so he personally sucked the pus and blood from it with his mouth. Come out." There was no fluctuation in Su Ziye's black eyes, neither compassion nor fanaticism, he was just telling a story calmly.
"Everyone was praising the general's character, but when the soldier's mother heard about this, she burst into tears." Su Ziye looked at Liu Ru: "Do you know why this mother was crying?"
Liu Ru didn't know why Su Ziye told this story, so she shook her head: "I don't know."
"Because the mother's husband was also a soldier of this general, and the general also sucked pus and blood for him. For this reason, he fought bravely on the battlefield and refused to retreat in the face of danger, just to repay his general's kindness." Su Ziye said quietly: "And now that her son has received great kindness from the general, he will definitely be brave and unafraid of death on the battlefield. In this case, not long after her husband died, she would also lose her only son, so she Only then will he cry loudly.”
Liu Ru understood this time.
At that moment, she was so moved that she would not hesitate at all even if she died for Su Ziye on the spot.
But if all this was Su Ziye's plot and means, then her heart, which was so hot just now, instantly became cold.
She looked at Su Ziye: "Why are you telling me this story?"
"I don't want your loyalty." Su Ziye looked at Liu Ru and smiled and said: "If one day, the benefits you can get from betraying me exceed what I can give you, just betray me cleanly. What I did Everything you do can be regarded as my bribe to you."
"But the same thing." This young man who Liu Ru couldn't see through continued: "I will also be a very good friend. If you are willing to stand by my side, then we can reach an unprecedented world and situation together."
"Although now you have nothing like me."
