him under the stars

Chapter 51
How dare he say it!
The number of people coming in is uncertain, and there are many seats downstairs. It would be more reliable if he specified a range, but the exact location...

Xu Xing glanced at him, put his hands on the back of the chair and leaned over to look down.

A couple came in, holding hands and whispering, and a waiter stepped forward to guide them to a seat.They looked around for a week and slowly walked towards the dining area on the right.

Xu Xingwei straightened up, and saw them standing in the aisle in the middle, hesitating for a while, and then sat on the farthest edge by the window.

"...how come?" She was surprised and looked back at Han Chen.

The corners of the man's lips were slightly bent, and a smile flashed across his usually dull face. Under the reflection of the overhead light, those dark eyes seemed to be soaked in clear water, with obvious joy.

Even though he has always been calm and reserved, being praised and approved by insignificant people is different from people who care.

"Why not?" he asked slowly.

Xu Xing was speechless for a while, but this is... amazing.

"Nothing strange."

Even Han Chen himself was not used to this kind of emotional exposure.He sat back to his seat with a little restraint, let the waiter arrange the dishes, stared at Xu Xing, and said unhurriedly: "When people choose a seat, they will first avoid the ones that are already occupied, so they will subconsciously focus on the empty seats. More places. People with a flamboyant personality tend to be more open and free, and introverted people tend to lean to the side, by the window, against the wall, and have a certain amount of cover. In those who do not have a seat and need to join the table Under normal circumstances, they will tend to choose tables with fewer people and the same sex. This is a general situation.”

"The couple took a step back when the waiter came in, and the man's arms around her shoulders were tightened inwards—tense, defensive. It means that they neither come here often, nor are they familiar with it. For the unfamiliar An environment, or a place that makes it tense, is a special case where people subconsciously seek a place inward, out to the side, in the hope of going unnoticed."

Xu Xing chewed his words in his heart a few times, and suddenly felt wrong: "Didn't you decide where people would sit before they came in?" He said, these are all actions after seeing people Analysis.

"Oh." Han Chen chuckled and said slowly, "When I opened the window, I saw them tugging at the door."

"The lady doesn't seem to want to come in, but the man's attitude is firm. If it's not a special day today, he will do something, such as propose a marriage."

Shout out!
Xu Xing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he couldn't help turning around to look at the couple. They were talking about something, but the man didn't move yet.

She looked away, but Han Chen said in a deep voice: "I'll go to your house at night."

Xu Xing was slightly stunned: "This... so fast?" After speaking, he paused and looked up.

Han Chen's brows and eyes seemed to be stained with a faint smile, and he chuckled softly: "I'm talking about taking away the left luggage, what... what did you think?"

Xu Xing: "..."

"But I really want to stay with you for one night. The informant I sent to protect you was driven away, so you..." He looked up at her, and said lightly: "Don't be disappointed."

"...Who is disappointed?" Xu Xing was slightly annoyed: "Take your luggage and go downstairs..."

She paused.

Han Chen glanced out of the window, then stopped suddenly, his expression froze.

"What's wrong?" Xu Xing said, turning his head to look out the window.

"You are here." Han Chen said in a deep voice, and got up suddenly.Before Xu Xing came back to his senses, he went downstairs very quickly. Halfway through, he took out his mobile phone and glanced at it. On the last few steps, he simply supported himself with his left arm and rolled over the handrail. Without a buffer, his figure disappeared. At the door of the restaurant, the doorman didn't even have time to bow his head to signal.

Xu Xing immediately leaned over and looked down from the window, only to see that familiar figure passing through the crowd and finally turning into a corner.She froze for a moment, then turned and went downstairs.When he walked to the door, he suddenly heard a commotion one after another. He turned his head and saw that it was the couple from before. The man knelt on one knee and was holding a delicate red box in his hand.

She looked at it for a while, then walked away.

The last place where Han Chen disappeared seems to be near here.

A few minutes later, Xu Xing looked up, his eyes fixed slightly, and he walked over slowly.

This is an alleyway, narrow and dark, sandwiched in a corner of the bustling street, like a small river channel stuck in the middle.She clutched the ribbon around her waist and sighed slightly.

She was wearing a skirt today, and she put everything in her bag, but she forgot to take it out in a hurry.There are no mobile phones, nor any lighting tools.Xu Xing hesitated for a while before walking in.

The alley was deep and deep, and she stopped walking for an unknown amount of time.

"Han Chen?" She called softly.

There was no sound in the darkness.

But Xu Xing just felt that something was wrong, so he stood where he was.

Suddenly, footsteps started coming from behind.

The speed of listening to the sound is fast, but the intensity is not heavy.Xu Xing leaned against the wall and looked back. It was still dark, and she couldn't see anything—she had slight night blindness, and it was fine with a little light. Once it was dim, it was all black to her.

She gave way, but the man didn't pass by, but stopped beside her.

An arm that obviously belonged to a man was placed on her shoulder. At almost the same moment, Xu Xing calmly grabbed the hand that was extended by the other party and lifted it up. With a slightly short body, he turned around to the side, facing the man. , kicked the opponent's crotch straight with the right leg.

Missed!

The man's warm and strong hands grasped her ankle.

Xu Xing's scalp went numb for a moment, and she clearly felt the man's fingers move, but she seemed to be reluctant to restrain it.

In the deep darkness where she couldn't reach her fingers, she clearly heard the man's low panting, unhurried, with a faint... green wood fragrance?

She froze for a moment.

"Xu Xing." Han Chen sighed helplessly.

Xu Xing's complexion was a little hot, but fortunately he couldn't see it in the dim light.She whispered: "Who told you to keep quiet."

As he spoke, he retracted his feet——did not move!

Han Chen tightened his grip on her ankle, and said calmly, "Are you still reasonable?" He pulled his palm back slightly, without any emotion: "I knew you wouldn't be obedient."

Xu Xing: "..."

A hero doesn't suffer from immediate losses... She is going to be unable to stand up! !

"I was alone in the restaurant and I was a little scared."

Compared with "I was wrong", she chose a less shameful statement.

A second later, she intuited that Han Chen seemed to have glanced at her, and slowly let go of his hand.

The skin on the ankles was tender and sensitive, and Xu Xing could clearly feel the calluses on Han Chen's hands rubbing against them, as well as the slightly rough texture of his fingertips.

Those hands must feel great on the skin.

An image suddenly flashed in her mind uncontrollably, and the temperature of her whole body rose instantly.

"The strength of the side kick is not only from the calf, but also from the waist, to the thigh, calf, and then to the tense instep. Your strength is not enough. If you kick it without pain or itching, it may irritate the opponent." Han Chen said .

Xu Xing responded indiscriminately, he frowned slightly, put his hand on her forehead, and asked, "Why are you breathing so fast?"

After being touched for the first time, Xu Xing shook off his hand instantly like a frightened cat: "I'm fine."

Han Chen's hand froze in the air for a moment, then retracted it as if nothing had happened, and said in a low voice, "Go out first and then talk, if you can't see it, pull the corner of my clothes."

Xu Xing bowed his head in silence for a while, without moving.

"Don't worry, there's no puddle here." Han Chen laughed.

Only then did she reach out to touch him, and when she touched his warm body, she subconsciously shrank her fingertips, and quickly grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"Okay." She said softly.

Han Chen hummed, and led her out avoiding the stones and uneven places.

"How did you come out just now?"

"It's nothing, I saw a familiar person." Han Chen glanced over, obviously not wanting to say more.

Xu Xing actually didn't have to make it clear, but the alley was too quiet, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

But as soon as she finished talking about the alley being quiet, she heard some voices coming from a distance inside, like... a few people were laughing and making noise.

Han Chen also paused.

"Let's go there together." Xu Xing said quickly.

Han Chen gave a low laugh, and then there was a slight rubbing sound of the cloth - he directly grabbed her hand.

The wind brushed past my ears, as if carrying warmth.A faint green wood fragrance came from him, enveloping a man's breath.

Xu Xing couldn't describe how he felt in his heart, but he suddenly hoped that this moment could be infinitely longer.

Just at Han Chen's speed, he reached the end of the alley in less than 2 minutes.

There are passages extending in all directions here, and it looks like the back door of many stores.As they got closer, the previous voice became clearer and more obvious.

It was not a romp at all, but an incident of violence and obscenity.

Many boys are surrounding a young boy who is cornered in the middle.

The boy was lying on the ground, clutching the zipper of his trousers tightly, his jacket was torn open, only a few buttons remained.With his head down, he couldn't see his expression clearly, and his white upper body was very obvious under a little light.Someone laughed and said something, reached out and pinched his chest.He didn't make a sound, but shrank back a little.

The moment Xu Xing saw it, his heart, which was still hot just now, suddenly cooled down, as if his blood was about to freeze.

Familiar scene.

The same besieged, the same insulting behavior, the same laughing and joking, and didn't care.

She touched her side with trembling hands, but found nothing - her mobile phone was still left in the restaurant.

Han Chen went over, kicked the people in the outermost circle to the wall, glanced at Xu Xing, raised his brows slightly, and threw his mobile phone over: "Go on."

Xu Xing picked up the phone and called the police.

There were quite a few besiegers, dozens of them, and upon seeing this, they all attacked Han Chen without hesitation.

Han Chen tugged the corner of his mouth very lightly.

After Xu Xing described the exact location to the operator, he looked up and saw the bullied boy stand up by himself leaning on the wall, straightening his pants.

Under the sparse light, his handsome appearance and thin upper body can be seen at a glance.

Xu Xing sucked his cheek slightly, looked down at his body, tore off the outermost layer of gauze from the skirt, walked around the fighter and put the gauze on him.

"Thank you." The young man said softly,
Xu Xing was silent for a moment, and said: "The next time you meet them, don't be afraid, just focus on the leader and beat them to death."
