Chapter 342 What are you thinking about
"Just say so."
Ruan Xihe shrugged, obviously unwilling to discuss the matter with him anymore.
She picked up the chopsticks naturally and started eating.
On the contrary, Fu Ling had a lot of explanations and excuses that he had prepared in his mind, but they got stuck in his throat for a moment and he had no chance to say them out loud.
Fu Ling pursed his lips slightly, with no expression on his face.
He glanced at Ruan Xihe who was concentrating on eating, not knowing what his mood was.
On the one hand, he hoped that Ruan Xihe would not discover the truth, but on the other hand, he wanted her to discover the truth...
Before they knew it, a lot of time had passed and Ruan Xihe had almost finished eating.
"Why are you looking at me?" Noticing Fu Ling's gaze, Ruan Xihe raised her head and glanced at the chopsticks in Fu Ling's hand that had not moved at all. She put down her bowl and chopsticks and asked with a smile, "Isn't this the meal you prepared for yourself? Why don't you eat a bite?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Ling paused.
He looked down at the still full bowl of rice in front of him, and the chopsticks in his hand did not move at all.
Careless.
Fu Ling's face was a little hot. He looked away guiltily and tried to explain, "I..."
"You didn't plan to eat it anyway. Is this really the meal you prepared for me?"
"I was just thinking about something, that's why I didn't move my chopsticks."
"Oh..." Ruan Xihe didn't say whether she believed it or not. She turned her eyes slightly, with a cunning light flowing in her eyes, and asked casually, "Then what are you thinking about? Is it about me?"
Fu Ling was shocked when he heard this.
He slowly put down his chopsticks, picked up the teacup beside him, turned his face away and gently rebuked, "You...you...as a woman, you should be more reserved."
"Why am I not reserved?" Ruan Xihe just looked at him with a smile, "I just said that you were thinking about me, but I didn't say that you were thinking about me, Fu Ling, I still want to ask, what are you thinking about?"
Ruan Xihe smiled slyly.
She was like a cunning fox who set a trap and lured the rabbit step by step into the deep pit she had dug.
Realizing that he was being tricked, Fu Ling was startled and nearly dropped the teacup in his hand.
He said in a deep voice: "This deity..."
"Fu Ling, you don't... like me, do you?"
When Ruan Xihe saw that Fu Ling was avoiding her gaze, she picked up the teacup beside her, took a sip, and then asked a shocking question.
She asked this, but she actually had no idea.
Ruan Xihe didn't know whether she was afraid of hearing Fu Ling's answer, or was afraid that the answer she heard would not be the answer in her mind.
Fu Ling shuddered all over, as if he couldn't believe what he heard.
He stood up from his seat in an instant, bringing the chair to the ground with him. His Adam's apple moved up and down slightly, and he stammered, "Ridiculous, ridiculous!"
"How could I like you?!"
Fu Ling seemed to realize that his reaction was too intense, so he quickly added: "It's because there is a soul contract between you and me, so it's normal for me to care about you a little more."
But in the end, the idea in his heart was revealed.
Fu Ling put his hands behind his back, swallowed hard, and walked towards the window. He didn't dare to look at Ruan Xihe and wanted to run away.
But perhaps to hide the fact that he was not running away, Fu Ling stopped again when he walked to the window.
He paused, and with his back to Ruan Xihe, there was a thin booklet in his palm.
In almost the blink of an eye, the booklet appeared from his hand on the table in front of Ruan Xihe.
"This is a book of martial arts techniques suitable for practicing swordsmanship. You should read it carefully and try to come to Dongzhou as soon as possible."
Ruan Xihe just glanced at the booklet and almost spurted out the water in his mouth.
She moved her gaze from the booklet to Fu Ling's back and said uncertainly: "This..." Fighting skills, are you serious?
"Wuqing has finished his work and will continue to stay with you. If you have anything, you can call him directly. I'm leaving." Ruan Xihe didn't finish her words, but Fu Ling didn't dare to listen to her. He just said something hastily and turned to leave, even forgetting to tear the void.
Ruan Xihe looked at Fu Ling's disappearing back and his temples throbbed twice.
She reached out helplessly and took the booklet on the table, only to see seven words written in bold on the cover.
[The Domineering God Falls in Love with Me]
Ruan Xihe: “…”
She guessed that Fu Ling might have taken the wrong fighting skills.
But Ruan Xihe couldn't imagine that the cold-faced emperor actually had such a hobby of reading storybooks in private.
And it’s a romance book.
Ruan Xihe flipped through a few pages at random, but he didn't expect that in addition to the vivid descriptions in the storybook, there were also many notes and insights in the corners.
The handwriting was crooked and extremely sloppy, like spring earthworms and autumn snakes, which was unsightly. It was obvious that it was added later.
Ruan Xihe curled the corner of his mouth.
Could it be that Fu Ling added it? This handwriting is too ugly!
She really couldn't imagine a person as cold as an iceberg, not only liking to read storybooks in secret, but also marking them in such detail...
Moreover, through what happened tonight, Ruan Xihe also had some guesses about Fu Ling's feelings.
At this time, Wuqing, who actually annotated the storybook, was outside feeling sorry for the storybook and his own annotations.
It’s fine that the Emperor had confiscated his notebook before.
He originally thought that after reading the storybook and the annotations he had worked so hard on, the Emperor might make some progress, but he didn't expect that the Emperor was still so stupid!
He was about to vomit blood.
...
the other side.
After everyone returned to their rooms, Xia Yuanbai closed the door, extinguished the candle and went to bed.
But in fact, Xia Yuanbai put the pillow into the quilt, pretending that there was someone on the bed, and hid himself on the roof.
Not long after, his door was pushed open a crack.
Wherever Xia Yuanbai looked, the door seemed empty, but the next second, the open door was slowly closed.
It was as if an invisible person had sneaked into the house.
Then, under Xia Yuanbai's gaze, the drawers, cabinets and other things in his room all "opened by themselves".
Then it closed itself again.
Xia Yuanbai sneered, and the air pressure in his body became a little low.
No matter how dumb he was, he could realize that someone had entered the room, and that person was the one who had ambushed his "fellow academy student" when he was in the Holy Maiden Church.
The invisible man seemed to have sensed the inexplicable low pressure in the room and stopped what he was doing.
For a moment, the room was so quiet that the sound of a silver needle dropping could be heard.
Xia Yuanbai realized that he had revealed his murderous aura and quickly restrained his breath.
The room returned to normal again. The invisible man looked towards the bed with some concern. After seeing that the person behind the bed curtain was still sleeping soundly, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued to search for something in the room.
Just then, two "pa pa" sounds were heard.
There was a knock on the door.
