Chapter 169
This morning, the entire Tangli Residence was dead silent, no matter whether it was the cleaning lady in the yard or the cook in the back kitchen, none of them were in the yard.

Xue Shu sat in front of the dressing table, and Qingyu combed her hair.

She didn't go out today, so she didn't need to do any hairstyles. After Qingyu opened her hair, she changed to a massage comb, and pressed gently on Xue Shu's head one by one.

"Are you ready for the things I told you to prepare?" Xue Shu looked over the window and landed on the empty courtyard outside.

Qingyu bit her lip and nodded: "Girl, do you really want to..."

Xue Shu glanced at her, Qingyu quickly fell silent.

"Don't worry, I have my own measure." Xue Shu picked up a hairpin while talking, "Where is Zhu Yaoxing?"

"Master Zhu is still in the guard house." Qingyu said in a heavy tone.

Xue Shu nodded: "You will go there in person in a while and send Mr. Zhu back to the Salesian Bureau."

"Ah?" Qingyu blinked, "Isn't that your honored guest, Miss?"

Qingyu knew that Xue Shu had put in a lot of effort to wish Yao Xing, and even asked Jing Xing to go there in person, and finally brought him back.

Why did you have to send it away again in a blink of an eye?
"It's not a distinguished guest." Xue Shu sneered.

You have hurt her so badly in the previous life, and you still want to be her honored guest?
Give him face.

Qingyu had no choice but to nod her head and agreed.

"By the way, go and ask Mr. Zhu if you want to go back to the Salesian Bureau or follow Miss Chu." Heavens, it's natural to stand by the side of the so-called "hostess".

She doesn't mind giving him a go.

"Miss Chuchu?"

"Ah."

Qingyu nodded again.

She doesn't seem to understand what Xue Shu is thinking now.

It's just that I feel inexplicably uneasy.

"—Go." Xue Shu sighed, and waved Qing Yu back.

He went back to bed and lay down again, staring blankly at the bed curtain with his phoenix eyes.

Not long after Qingyu left, Jing Xing came with a food box.

As soon as he entered the yard, he suddenly felt a strange feeling.

Today's Tangli Residence seems to be too quiet.

He frowned, walked slowly across the courtyard, and stopped in front of Xue Shu's bedroom door: "Shu'er, are you up?"

Xue Shu, who was lying on the bed in a daze, sat up when she heard a familiar voice: "Get up."

"Come out for dinner." Jing Xing left such a sentence, and was about to turn around and go to the flower hall to wait.

As a result, he had just walked out a few steps when the door of Xue Shu's bedroom was pulled open from inside: "No need, I... want to eat in the bedroom."

Hearing this, Jing Xing stopped and turned to look at her.

Xue Shu didn't comb her hair, and didn't even change her pajamas.

Maybe Xue Shu didn't sleep well last night, her pajamas were a little loose, revealing a delicate and small collarbone.

That piece of skin was dazzlingly white.

Jing Xing said "Oh", and didn't dare to look at Xue Shu any more, and went into the bedroom directly carrying the food box.

He casually put the food box on the table, then took the cloak from the hanger at the side, turned around and wrapped Xue Shu tightly: "How can you come out dressed like this, without fear of freezing?"

His complexion was normal, and there seemed to be nothing unusual about him.

Xue Shu sat down beside him, and when she turned her head, she saw Jing Xing's red ears.

Xue Shu lowered her eyes, picked up the spoon in her plain hand, stirred it a few times in the bowl, but did not put it into her mouth for a long time.

She seems preoccupied today.

Jing Xing has always been careful about people, and he was even more careful with Xue Shu.

Seeing that she really had no appetite, Jing Xing sighed, and simply put the porridge away: "Okay, don't force yourself, let's eat more for lunch."

Xue Shu nodded.

Then, she pulled Jing Xing and lay back on the bed.

He still remembered the last time he was lying on the bed with Xue Shu, Xue Shu's uncontrollable fear, so Jing Xing deliberately slowed down his movements, and he didn't relax until he saw that Xue Shu was not as nervous as last time. He took a deep breath, completely relaxed his body, and lay flat beside Xue Shu.

Her breathing is natural and steady.

On the contrary, Jing Xing's body began to stiffen unconsciously.

He always felt that today's Xue Shu was too abnormal.

Jing Xing turned his head to look at Xue Shu.

Xue Shu just closed her eyes, as if she was simply sleeping.

Jing Xing frowned.

Is he thinking too much?
Seeing that there was nothing unusual about Xue Shu, Jing Xing suppressed the doubts in his heart and closed his eyes.

Of course he couldn't sleep.

It's just a matter of repose.

Xue Shu couldn't sleep either.

*
Xue Shu was acting strangely all day long.

Either eating or lying on the bed, he rarely even moves around.

At night, Qingyu delivered the food box on time.

She just put the food box on the table and went out with her head down.

Jing Xing propped himself up and sat up, then bent down to hug Xue Shu: "Shu'er, it's time for dinner, get up quickly."

Xue Shu sat in Jing Xing's arms and did not move.

There was no need for her to move, Jing Xing picked her up with one hand and took her out of bed for dinner.

However, as soon as he moved to the bed, the little girl in his arms began to feel restless.

Not only did he bite his lip, but he also yanked his hands on his body, messing up his clothes in a few strokes.

"Hiss—" Jing Xing sighed helplessly in pain, tilted his head back, and finally freed his lips from Xue Shu's mouth.

This little girl is really ruthless.

Xue Shu straddled his lap and looked at him resentfully.

She didn't mean to bite him either.

I have no experience.

"Didn't it be agreed, this matter will be reserved for the marriage." Jing Xing helplessly touched Xue Shu's hair twice, "Stop making trouble, go and eat the meal first, huh?"

"I don't want it." Xue Shu still stared at him.

"You didn't think about food and drink all day, but you were thinking about this matter?" Jing Xing was completely helpless.

He reached out and tapped Xue Shu on the head.

If he could, he really wanted to knock the head open and see what was inside.

How important a woman's chastity is, this silly girl is good, she has no matchmaker, and she wants to give herself to him.

Xue Shu didn't speak, still staring at him quietly.

"—Impossible." Jing Xing said, and without any explanation, he picked up Xue Shu and brought her to the round table.

He hugged Xue Shu with one hand, and opened the lid of the food box with the other to start serving vegetables.

No matter how much the little girl in his arms tossed about, the strength in his hand would not loosen even a bit.

Until Xue Shu kicked the round table.

The wooden round table was almost kicked over by her.

Fortunately, Jing Xing had quick eyes and quick hands, and he put one hand on the round table, finally saving the dinner table.

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the little girl in his arms started to thrash about again.

Jing Xing took a deep breath, hugged Xue Shu and took two steps back.

"Shu'er, don't mess around!" Jing Xing's tone was mixed with anger, "Do you know what you are doing!"

This was the first time that Jing Xing got angry in front of Xue Shu.

The little girl in her arms froze, and finally calmed down.

"Of course I know." Xue Shu's voice was full of grievances.

Jing Xinggang's hardened heart instantly softened again.
