Chapter 173 Little Genius
The further we walked, the denser the forest became, the sunlight was blocked, and the environment became increasingly colder.
Chu Xu scratched his head in confusion. This didn't seem to be the way back?
There was a constant rustling sound, as if something was crawling on the ground.
The child suddenly became frightened, his little neck shrank down, and he looked warily in the direction of the sound.
The bushes shook, and Chu Xu subconsciously stepped back. Suddenly, a gray thing jumped out of it.
Chu Xu saw a flash of gray shadow. He was so frightened that he didn't see it clearly and screamed "ah" and sat down on the ground, startling a few birds.
The hare was more frightened than him. Its long ears twitched and it jumped away in a hurry.
"It turns out to be a rabbit." Chu Xu patted his chest, which was beating wildly. With a "pop" sound, a fresh piece of bird droppings fell on his shoulder.
"Ah!" Chu Xu jumped up and quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe it.
The new clothes Aunt Xiaohuan had just made for him couldn't be ruined by bird poop.
After wiping with my little hands, the bird droppings were wiped off, and a large area of clothes was ruined, and the stench lingered.
"Why am I so unlucky?" Chu Xu wrinkled his little face, threw the bird poop-stained handkerchief into the bushes, and looked around, "Where should I go?"
The child closed his eyes and turned around three times, taking it easy.
"Just go this way!"
He didn't believe he couldn't go back!
Chu Xu once again stepped forward bravely with his short legs.
Shang Wan in the dark: "..."
How did this stupid kid escape the assassin's pursuit in the first place? Relying on recklessness?
The wind blew loudly, lifting my robe and making my hair fly.
Chu Xu looked at the familiar cliff with dull eyes.
Strange, isn't he going down the mountain? How did you get here?
"Yuanyuan!" He put his hands to his mouth and shouted towards the cliff.
"round--"
"round--"
"round--"
There was an echo.
"I'd better wait for Aunt Shang to come to me." Chu Xu sat down cross-legged, chewed on the wild fruits picked on the road, and stuck out his tongue because of the sourness.
Throwing away the wild fruit, Chu Xu continued to call Yuanyuan towards the valley, and then called Chu Xu a few more times, for no other reason than out of boredom.
Unexpectedly, Yuanyuan didn't call, and the assassin was summoned.
No more, no less, exactly four.
Chu Xu: "!"
Wuwuwu, he will never dare to shout again.
Four knives struck at the same time, blocking all escape routes. Chu Xu held his head and squatted down, subconsciously shouting at the top of his lungs: "Aunt Shang, help me!!!!"
"Ah——" the echo echoed through the valley.
"Bang bang bang bang!"
The sound of something heavy hitting the ground.
"Huh?" Chu Xu, who felt like he was still alive, opened one eye and looked up. A familiar figure came into view. He cried out with a cry of "Wow" and stretched out his arms to hug Shang Wan's legs. Tears and snot filled his eyes. rub.
Shang Wan: "..."
She still wants her skirt.
"Be good, don't be afraid, it's all solved." She bent down and rubbed the child's head with a gentle voice, "Not a single fish will slip through the net, and you don't have to be afraid in the future."
Chu Xu sniffed his red nose and rubbed it on Shang Wan's skirt again before standing up and carefully sticking out his little head to look at the body of the man in green.
Yes, it's green. The assassin is all green and is hiding in the dense forest. You can't find it unless you look carefully.
He sobbed: "Why are they here? Aren't they gone?"
Shang Wan's tone became gentler, "Silly boy, you know they were ordered to kill you, how could they leave so easily?"
"Ah?" Chu Xu raised his little head and looked at Shang Wan blankly. His cat eyes blinked, and the tears on his thick eyelashes slid down his face.
Shang Wan raised his hand to pinch his cheek and softly uttered four words, "I lied to you."
Chu Xu: (⊙⊙)
Shang Wan: "Do you know fishing? If you don't stay alone, how will you fish out the assassin?"
Chu Xu: Woo!
The young master said that his young mind was seriously hurt.
Shang Wan said lovingly: "Although your reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance capabilities are not good, you still have one outstanding advantage."
Chu Xu buried his head and wiped his tears on Shang Wan's skirt. Hearing this, he raised his head and asked with a choked voice: "What are the advantages?"
Shang Wan smiled, "You are a lost little genius."
Chu Xu was stunned for a moment, and then cried "Wow".
"Be good, stop crying." Shang Wan held Chu Xu's little hand and walked back, "Let's find a place to bury the body."
Chu Xu:?

The door to the study room opened with a creak. Lu Chengjing’s hand holding the pen paused. He looked up and saw that it was Shang Wan. His expression softened unconsciously and he asked, "Did the assassin come out? "
"Well, there's not a single one left." Shang Wan had already changed his skirt and said as he walked towards the desk, "They were more cautious this time and followed Chu Xu around five or six times until they reached the last person on the edge of the cliff. come out."
"Thank you for your hard work, madam." Lu Chengjing poured a cup of tea and pushed it to Shang Wan.
Shang Wan took a few sips from the tea cup, put it down, bent down and gently wiped the green ointment from Lu Chengjing's neck with a handkerchief, and took a closer look.
Although the ointment is an ordinary ointment, it is still effective in treating local tooth marks.
"The mark is almost gone." Shang Wan simply dipped his handkerchief in tea and wiped off the ointment. Thinking of the man's embarrassed appearance during breakfast, he couldn't help teasing, "If you really like it, I can bite it on someone else." Out of sight."
Lu Chengjing pursed his lips, and his delicate white fingers unconsciously exerted force to hold the brush tighter. The tips of his ears turned red visibly.
"Speak." Shang Wan smiled and pinched his earlobe, unable to hide his tendency to have red ears due to shyness.
Lu Chengjing coughed twice and whispered, "We'll talk about it tonight."
"Do you really want to wait until night?" Shang Wan's voice rose as he got closer and closer, so close that he could not only count the other person's curled eyelashes, but also clearly see the faint lines on his thin lips.
The light fragrance lingers with the breath, waves surge in the depths of the black eyes, and the fingers with clear joints gradually turn white.
Well, the fox is about to stretch out its claws.
Shang Wan's almond-shaped eyes were crescent, he straightened up and pulled away, turned around, "I'm going out - ugh!"
His big hands wrapped around his thin waist, and he pulled the person to sit on his lap. Their lips met and their breaths were hot.
There was darkness in the depths of his black eyes, and his movements were fierce and urgent.
Shang Wan secretly clicked his tongue, raised his hand to wrap around the back of Lu Chengjing's neck, and rubbed it gently with his fingers soothingly.
The movements between the lips gradually became gentle and lingering.
The brush dipped in ink lost its owner's control and rolled onto the white paper, drawing out a long curved ink line.
Sunlight pours in through the diamond-shaped window paper, leaving irregular spots on the floor tiles that sway in the wind.
In the study room, the sound of water gradually disappeared.
"Okay." Shang Wan pushed away the beautiful head in front of him, gently rubbed his ears with his fingertips, his almond-shaped eyes moist and smiling, "We'll talk about it tonight."
——The original words are returned.
"Madam." Lu Chengjing blinked blankly, his deep voice dripping with grievance because of dissatisfaction.
The originally light lip color turned red due to the contact just now, adding a sense of color to the usually cold and pale person.
Shang Wan's almond-shaped eyes were crescent, and his white fingers passed over the side of his face and touched his red lips.
