”Ouch” Ning Xiaoyao stopped ss to die?” Lou Zigui asked
”Mhui relented
”Oh yeah~” a happy Ning Xiaoyao lifted her head to peck Lou Zigui on the cheek ”Love ya!”
Wind whistled through the courtyard, noisily shaking the leaves on the bodhi trees Their dappled shadows flickered against the ground before one heart-shaped leaf fell to land on Ning Xiaoyao's head She took the leaf and used it to tease Big Boss Black by her feet, earning a scratch froui sat in a trance on one side, half-doubting what he'd just heard
”Co with the cat She rose to her feet and pulled Lou Zigui after her ”I've already cured Zhou Junqi's injuries He should be awake by now, so let's pay hi Xiaoyao while wishi+ng he could ask her just what she had said But the question stopped at the tip of his tongue If I really heard what I think I heard, how aui past teli Buddha statues on the way He had once prayed before a statue just like these, one who seely lamented the state of the world and yet only chose to watch its fate from a distance The vision of his father and brothers, their corpses riddled ounds, once again rose before his eyes The whitedown from the ancestral hall, the loud sobs of Lou Nana as he cried for his father and ui to the heart
”Eh?” Ning Xiaoyao paused to look at the hand she was holding ”Supreme Commander, it's summer Why is your hand so cold?”
When he felt the warui recovered his wits and saw Ning Xiaoyao blowing on his skin
”Why would your hand get cold?” Ning Xiaoyao puffed a fewthe back of his hand It was still a bit chilly, causing her to tilt her head in thought Forget about doing this physically, I ui took this chance to pull Ning Xiaoyao into his ar Xiaoyao looked up at hiui's lips closed abruptly over hers, hisXiaoyao only peered at the Buddha statues behind Lou Zigui with a start Dang it, are we allowed to kiss in a temple?

”Then don't kill the e Xiaoyao said
”The things I agreed to do for you, I'll definitely see through 'til the end,” Lou Zigui sht privately She stroked his hand, which was no longer cold, and said, ”Supreme Commander, don't believe nonsense like that 'star of disaster' business Just then I met with Great Master kumu and asked him where I came him He actually said that I fell from Heaven Hear that? Those were even the words of a Great Master Supreme Commander, don't you think anyone who falls fro dead by now?”
