Chapter 22 The first drop of blood
Qi Zhi lowered his head and glanced at the watch on his wrist, the second hand dutifully walked every grid, "tick tick tick".

"Boy, are you in a hurry?"

The uncle who served him noticed Qi Zhi's movements of looking at his watch from time to time, and reminded him quite intimately, "If you are really in a hurry, go first."

"No need, it's not a big deal, you can continue." Qi Zhi collected himself and brought back Piaofei's thoughts.

After only a short while apart, he began to worry about Hecilia involuntarily.The little girl was too outstanding, and she was so simple. When he first came to this place that was completely unfamiliar to her, he was really worried, and even began to faintly regret the decision he had just made.But there is another voice in his heart reminding him from time to time - don't do those superfluous things.Cecilia will be independent after all, and his task is only to accompany her for a short time.

Ever since he became conscious, Qi Zhi knew exactly what he needed and what he didn't need, and lived a sober and calm life.Everything that happened in the blood clan has long been beyond expectations, and I didn't plan to come back, so it doesn't matter if I am casual.But somehow he was destined to come back here, so it can no longer be the same as before, everything has a beginning and an end, and he should go back and make a good conclusion.

Annoyed by the sight, Qi Zhi simply took off the watch from his hand and put it in his pocket casually.

"Okay, I've packed everything you want!" The uncle handed Qi Zhi a big bag, "It's a bit heavy, so be careful when you hold it."

"Thank you."

Qi Zhi held the huge bag lightly in his hand, as if it didn't weigh at all, which made the uncle a little impressed. He didn't expect that he looked tall and thin, but his strength was not small at all.

Even with intentional restraint, Qi Zhi's pace of going back was obviously faster than when he came.

The breakfast area, which was previously sparsely populated, was surrounded by many people at this moment. Qi Zhi saw Xicilia wearing a goose-yellow dress in the crowd at a glance.

After a while, the little girl became familiar with the elders and aunts around her, and her ability to adapt was beyond Qi Zhi's imagination.It seems that the little girl can live well without him by her side.

While Qi Zhi was relieved by this kind of understanding, a certain part of his chest seemed to be blocked by a rag, and he felt a little suffocated.

"Xixi, where are you studying now?" Maybe because the word "Xixilia" is too convoluted, the uncle and aunt who are familiar with each other directly call it "Xixi" affectionately, which is catchy and pleasant.

In order to name Xicilia, the elders of the blood clan searched through ancient books, rejected many opinions, and finally finalized the name "Xicilia", which means "gift from heaven".

Such a name that has been endowed with great reputation and expectations is called "Xixi", but she doesn't care at all, her beautiful eyes smile into a crescent shape, "I haven't read a book yet."

"Hey, it's not good if you don't study. The little girl must study! If you don't study, you will have no future. Listen to grandma and go back and study hard."

"Yes, it's 9012 now, we have to follow the pace of the times, and we can't learn from the old feudal thinking. What 'a woman without talent is virtue' is a lie!"

"That's right, the mother said, 'Women hold up half the sky'!"

A few people talked and talked, and the topic ran endlessly.Xicilia kowtowed sunflower seeds imitating the technique of the aunt next to her, and listened with gusto. All this was a strange and novel existence to her. She could stare at the frying pan for a long time as it floated and sank.

As if anticipating something, Xicilia looked up and saw Qi Zhi outside the crowd.He is tall, with a slender waist and long legs, with picturesque eyebrows and eyes, and an outstanding temperament. Even if he doesn't say a word, he can immediately attract everyone's attention.

I don't know how long he stood there watching, Xicilia hugged the snow ball and waved to him, "Qi Zhi!"

"Hey! You're handsome again. What day is it today? I thought we were going to shoot a TV series!"

"Don't tell me, in my opinion, the two of them are much better-looking than the stars on the TV series."

Qi Zhi walked over with big strides, whispering among the people around Xicilia, but consciously made way for him.

"When did you come?"

"Just here."

"Oh." Xicilia didn't ask where Qi Zhi had just run to, stood up and patted the crumbs of the melon seeds she had just peeled, "Thank you, auntie, your melon seeds are delicious!"

"Hey~ If you like to eat, put some more back, Auntie still has it!" As he said, he stuffed the small plastic bag in Xicilia's hand involuntarily.

"Have you finished your breakfast?"

"Hmm! Oh, by the way, Qi Zhi, I even bought you some breakfast, I don't know what you like to eat, I bought some. And," Xicilia approached him mysteriously, "I also It only cost a little money."

Qi Zhi saw that she was indeed carrying a lot of bags, big and small, and felt soft in his heart.Cecilia looked up at him, eyes full of complacency, a strand of hair hanging on her fair cheek, playful and cute.

Qi Zhi resisted the thought of touching her hair, but just took the bag from Xicilia's hand, "Thank you."

Then he nodded to everyone and led her out of the morning market.

"Xixi, are you going home?"

Cecilia turned back and waved, "Well, I'll come and see you next time!"

She walked briskly behind Qi Zhi, and after this short period of getting along, Xicilia's inner hesitation had disappeared without a trace. "Qi Zhi, you mentioned a lot of things, let me help you with some."

"No." Qi Zhi avoided Hecilia's hand in a calm manner, "You are a princess in the blood clan, even if no one here knows you, no one knows your identity, you still have to live like a princess." Princess."

"But don't you humans advocate equality for everyone?"

"Yes, but every girl should be treated like a princess." Qi Zhi looked towards the side of the road, and there was a little girl sitting on the edge of the flower bed, with two cute croiss braids on her head.Standing next to her was a middle-aged man who looked like her father.The man held a bubble ring in his hand and tried for a long time before blowing out a small bubble clumsily.

The bubbles swung around in the air and burst on the little girl's nose, making her giggle, clapping her hands and shouting, "Poppa, blow one more!" The man wiped the sweat from his forehead, still blowing like that Stumbling, but not a trace of impatience.

"But not everyone thinks this way. Right and wrong in this world can't be clearly defined. You still meet too few people, but no matter who you meet, you have to see yourself the best valuable."

Qi Zhi's voice was very gentle, and he uttered words without haste, as if soaked in the temperature of sunlight.Xicilia stared at the father and daughter for a long time, as if she understood what Qi Zhi wanted to express in just a few words.

I wish you well, and hope that you will become your own sun, without relying on anyone's light.
