Chapter 123 Tsundere
These words were spoken to Shen Zhuo. He was educated and could understand what was said. He felt ashamed when he heard it and pulled Old Lady Shen to go home.
Seeing that Old Lady Shen was still stubborn and refused to leave, Xu Shu said loudly to the people around him, "Just because I don't hit women and boys doesn't mean I'm easy to bully. As the saying goes, mosquitoes are slapped because they bite people with their mouths. I'm in Shiqiao Village. Thank you for your care."
"But no matter how poor I am, I am still a scholar. Scholars care about their reputation, and everyone knows that. So...if I hear any rumors."
Xu Shu bent down and picked up a small stone at random, then threw it easily and comfortably at the hairpin on the head of Old Lady Shen who was still throwing a tantrum.
Everyone heard a crisp sound, and then saw the hairpin on Old Lady Shen's head broke into two pieces. Her half-white hair fell down, and with her ferocious movements, she looked like a ghost seeking someone's life.
The onlookers felt cold feet and mixed emotions in their hearts, feeling indescribably awkward.
When the bandits entered the village that day, the villagers gathered together and saw someone kill two people with stones! And this person was Xu Shu!
Originally, everyone only knew that Xu Shu was good at martial arts and could easily defeat several bandits alone, so they gave him the nickname "God of Killing".
There is a hint of sarcasm in this.
But now listening to what Xu Shu said, it is obvious that no matter who offends him, he will not let it go easily.
For a moment, they were both respectful and fearful, and they couldn't figure out whether it was a good thing or a bad thing to have such a killer god in the village.
Xu Shu looked at the expressions of everyone present coldly, and couldn't help but sneer, then turned around and pulled Mu Jinghua back to the house.
Whether it is the end of the world or here, everyone's reactions are surprisingly consistent, which is really boring.
None of them are as good as his little hibiscus, which is so pure that it makes people feel soft-hearted.
When Xu Shu mentioned Mu Jinghua, his voice softened unconsciously. He looked at him and said, "Ignore that man's nonsense. I'll take you to see our new home later, okay?"
Mu Jinghua smiled faintly, shook his head to indicate that he ignored the man, and asked carefully using lip language: "What happened to Shen Lin'er?"
Xu Shu felt distressed seeing him like that, so he naturally told Mu Jinghua everything.
When Mu Jinghua heard Shen Lin'er coming to find Xu Shu, he clenched his sleeves tightly, lowered his eyes slightly, and had no expression on his face.
When he heard Xu Shu say, "I think that since this childhood engagement can last for so many years, then there will be no problem for us to get engaged and get married in two years. Besides, if Shen Lin'er can cancel the engagement, so can we," he reacted a little.
As expected, the next moment he heard Xu Shu say, "So I slapped my forehead and ran to Huimin Hall to find you. As for what happened next, you know it."
Mu Jinghua's heart was beating so fast that he felt dizzy and was so happy that he didn't know where he was.
He is not the only one who acts on impulse, he is not the only one who cannot wait, and he is not the only one who does stupid things.
Xu Shu, I like you so much...
After Xu Shu said this, he kept looking at Mu Jinghua's expression. To be honest, he was a little nervous.
Because he himself also thought this matter was a bit stupid.
After all, before Shen Lin'er came that night, Mu Jinghua had expressed his love for him many times, and Xu Shu had clearly rejected him every time.
But because of Shen Lin'er's words that he could cancel the engagement, he threw aside all his previous insistence and principles, and even stayed up late at night and climbed over the wall to find Mu Jinghua.
It was ridiculous no matter how you looked at it. After all, as long as you lived in this world, you would definitely know that you could cancel an engagement.
But Xu Shu really didn't know.
So Xu Shu guessed that from Mu Jinghua's perspective, he was probably a tsundere. He clearly wanted something very much and he clearly liked her very much, but he was still stubborn and refused to admit it.
Finally, he couldn't hold it in any longer and found a lame excuse to save face.
Once he got permission, he started preparing for the engagement more actively than anyone else, even going so far as to set up dates every few days.
Damn, the more Xu Shu thought about it, the more he felt that the lofty image he had worked so hard to build in Mu Jinghua's heart had collapsed.
The house collapse was nothing, Xu Shu was just afraid that what if Xiao Mu Jin didn't like him anymore... he really couldn't stand it.
Xu Shu kept waiting, but Mu Jinghua didn't respond. He became anxious: "Little Mu Jin, please give me a response."
Mu Jinghua looked up when he heard this. The corners of his eyes were red, and his eyes were full of love, shining brightly, but also flashing with tears. He looked deeply at Xu Shu and smiled: "Xu Shu."
However, Xu Shu only stared at his eyes, those eyes that he had only had time to look at carefully until this moment.
He saw his figure reflected in those eyes, and he could feel that he was deeply loved by Mu Jinghua there.
He thought, the North Pacific, the South Pacific, the North Atlantic, the South Atlantic, the Indian Ocean, the Arctic Ocean, and the Antarctic Ocean.
The eyes of a lover are the eighth ocean.
"Mu Jinghua," Xu Shu whispered, "it's only you."
Xu Shu hugged the person in front of him tightly, listening quietly to the heartbeat coming from the thin body in his arms, thump, thump, thump.
Mu Jinghua could sense that something was wrong with Xu Shu.
Perhaps because he was used to reading people's faces since he was a child, Mu Jinghua had a strong sense of people's emotions and his intuition was always terrifyingly accurate. From the moment he saw Xu Shu today, Mu Jinghua felt that something was wrong with Xu Shu.
Even though Xu Shu still smiled at him, took him shopping, and even talked to tease him.
But Mu Jinghua could feel that something was wrong with Xu Shu.
It is a kind of loneliness that penetrates deep into the bone marrow and radiates from the inside out, as if coming from the depths of the soul.
He is lonely.
Mu Jinghua could understand this feeling very well, because he had been tormented by the loneliness of being the only one in the world since his father's death.
But inexplicably, Mu Jinghua felt that Xu Shu was different. He seemed to be afraid of being abandoned, so he took the initiative to choose loneliness.
Mu Jinghua didn't know what he had been through, but he remembered what Xu Shu had said to him - "Or do you like to sacrifice yourselves to make others regret their whole lives?"
Sacrifice yourself? Make others regret it forever?
Mu Jinghua's heart trembled, and he subconsciously hugged Xu Shu back. Thinking of the criss-crossing scars on Xu Shu's body, his eyes turned cold.
Xu Shu hugged Mu Jinghua and fell asleep.
After staying up for two nights, Xu Shuyi relaxed with Xiao Mujin by his side and fell asleep immediately.
When Xu Shu woke up again, it was already light outside.
Xu Shu went to rub his head which was a little swollen from sleeping. As soon as he raised his hand, he saw that he was still holding Mu Jinghua in his arms.
Mu Jinghua seemed to have been awake for a while. When she saw him wake up, she curled her eyes sweetly at him.
Xu Shu was confused by this smile and couldn't remember what happened last night: "I, drank last night?"
Mu Jinghua shook her head, shrank into his arms like a kitten, and pressed a handprint on his chest.
Xu Shu felt a little hotter after being touched, and asked again: "Then we..."
Mu Jinghua looked up, blinked, thought for a moment, then smiled at Xu Shu, but his hand, curled up in the quilt, was poking somewhere restlessly.
Then he lip-synched, "No, it's just that you... tickled me all night."
