MTL - Restart the Protagonist’s Way of Survival-Chapter 74 mind
Li Zifu opened the food box, and the cold air escaped, and there were ice cubes bigger than the palm of his hand inside. Because there are many layers of insulating cloth, the ice cubes inside have not yet begun to melt.
A chopstick was stuck on each piece of ice, and Li Zifu lifted one of them expressionlessly and looked at it: Popsicle? Ice bricks.
"Wow—" Yang Dejin looked at the gold, silver, jade and silk satins piled up in the hall, "This is too exaggerated, are these all tributes from foreign countries?"
Li Zichou leaned on the carved dragon pillar with his arms folded and began to lick the ice: "No."
"Oh, I'll just say it."
The entire hall is full, which is too exaggerated.
"The nave and apse are still there."
"..." Grass, what kind of rich woman are you, Li Zizhi.
Today is the second day after the banquet in the Zichen Palace, and all the tributes from various states are piled up here, and they haven't had time to count them into the warehouse.
"You really want me to choose from here?" Yang Dejin squatted on the edge of the cramped space, staring at the gold, silver and jewels, unable to move his eyes, "Why don't you let Bai Qingyang choose first?"
"Bai Qingyang?" Li Zichou raised his eyebrows, "Aren't all the things in the treasury after she ascended the throne belonged to her, do you need to be picky?"
Yang Dejin: "..." That's right.
Yang Dejin squatted on the ground to pick up the tribute, while Li Zichou leaned aside and asked her nonchalantly, "The people from Shuobei didn't come to make trouble for you, did they?"
"No." Yang Dejin replied without turning his head, "I've been looking for me twice, but it was just some chores, so I left it to Xie Zhi."
Li Zi rewarded the black thread: "...you're used to paddling, aren't you?"
"Oh, it's not a big deal, and you still use me?" Yang Dejin said in a daze.
Looking at the luxurious dome, Li Zishou said with some concern: "I'm afraid that the people of Shuobei will be guilty again. After all, something like that happened yesterday. Now we only know the general direction of the plot, and we don't guarantee that the plot will not change. If They... did you listen to me?"
Li Zichou turned his gaze back to the back of Yang Dejin's head, and saw that this man dug out a short knife inlaid with gold and gemstones from some corner, and was fondly playing with it.
The moment Yang Dejin saw that thing, his eyes glowed green, he turned his head and held up a dagger and said to Li Zichou, "I want this!"
"..." It seemed that he was not listening to her speech.
Li Zichou: "That's a tribute from Shuobei."
Yang Dejin paused his playful movements, and a subtle expression appeared on his face, a little disgusted, but he really liked it very much.
Li Zichou: "It's okay, the things that enter the Dasheng Palace are mine."
Yang Dejin looked at Li Zichou adoringly: "Wow—that's great."
"…thank you."
"You really like this kind of shiny gold." Li Zichou sighed helplessly and said, "Didn't I give you a horizontal knife before? Why did you choose a short soldier?"
"This looks good, give it to Xie Zhi." Yang Dejin said while holding the handle of the knife back and forth in the scabbard.
After hearing her words, Li Zishou's eyes suddenly became a little complicated.
She found out in the past few days that Yang Dejin and Xie Zhi got along very well. Originally, Li Zishou thought it was because of Yang Dejin's personality, he was lively and cheerful, and could get along with anyone. But Li Zichou observed that Xie Zhi's attitude towards Yang Dejin was also very unusual.
The ice bricks began to melt a little, and flowed onto Li Zifu's fingers. She quickly raised her arms and continued to eat.
A few days ago, there was a small meeting in the imperial court, and every time it was mentioned that these two people should meet the envoy from Fengshuobei together, Xie Zhi always had a very soft expression on his face, and Li Zichou was taken aback for a while.
Especially yesterday, when Yang Dejin ran to sit with Xie Zhi under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xie Zhi was actually quite happy? ?
Li Zichou didn't look at their seats very often, every time he could see Xie Zhi looking at Yang Dejin with a smile in his eyes!
Li Zichou had been thinking about it for a while, Yang Dejin waved the dagger in his hand, raised his head and asked, "Can you give this to me?"
Li Zichou coughed strangely: "Of course."
Yang Dejin was happy: "Yes!"
"That..." Li Zichou asked tentatively, "What do you think of Xie Zhiren?"
Yang Dejin: "Very good, a friend worth making."
Li Zichou: "Just friends?"
Yang Dejin also took an ice brick and sucked it out: "Otherwise? Could it be mother and child?"
Li Zishou: "..."
Mother and son...it's too much.
Li Zichou asked again: "Then how do you feel about him?"
"Is this different from your last question?" Yang Dejin looked at her strangely, but said in detail, "Sensible, calm, and beautiful."
Li Zichou automatically ignored the last adjective, and asked, "Then how do you feel about him?"
Yang Dejin asked suspiciously: "How do I know? What's wrong, why did you suddenly ask this?"
"That's right." Li Zishou paused, "Don't you think Xie Zhi treats you differently from others?"
"Is there?" Yang Dejin asked vaguely while biting an ice cube.
"Yes! Don't you think the way Xie Zhi looks at you is not right?"
"...Li Zichou, what do you want to say?"
Li Zichou didn't dare to think in that direction at first, at most he felt that Xie Zhi had few friends, and he accidentally didn't grasp the distance between him and Yang Dejin.
But seeing Yang Dejin's reaction, the mask of pain came out, and I'm afraid he also thought of that meaning.
Li Zichou suddenly became vicious, thinking "he values you very much" in his heart, but when he said it, it became "is he interested in you?"
"..." Yang Dejin fell silent at this moment.
In her perception, Xie Zhi is a man who likes women, and she is a woman who likes women. Yang Dejin was really confused by the question of hurting friends.
"I don't even know if you're questioning my sexuality or Xie Zhi's..."
Yang Dejin suddenly began to recall whether she had ever confessed her sexual orientation to Li Zichou.
Should, probably, maybe, yes? ? !
"I didn't question anyone," Li Zishou said seriously, "I'm just telling the truth based on my feeling."
Yang Dejin yelled loudly: "You have a ghost feeling of being cold-tempered, don't talk nonsense!"
Li Zichou: "..." This is a personal attack after becoming angry, right?
Li Zichou persuaded him kindly: "Don't say it so early, what if Xie Zhi really likes you?"
Yang Dejin frowned: "Impossible, I only like girls."
"I know you like girls, but you can't control who Xie Zhi likes."
"Huh? Then I think Bai Qingyang is still interested in you!"
Li Zichou: "?" What does it matter to her?
Seeing Li Zichou's buffering expression, Yang Dejin snorted in relief: "You can't control the heroine's feelings."
Bai Qingyang, that is the queen who will amnesty the world in the future, only the best talents in the world are worthy of her.
How can such a proud girl like Li Zishou like her?
Li Zichou only took her to be talking nonsense, and didn't take it seriously at all, and said calmly:
"Impossible, Bai Qingyang is a straight girl."
Yang Dejin: "Then I'm pure **** too!"
Li Zishou: "..."
So she didn't question Yang Dejin's sexual orientation at all! Isn't it important who is that person in Xie Zhi's heart? !
As if he knew what Li Zichou was shouting in his heart, Yang Dejin added: "I don't know who Xie Zhi likes, but Bai Qingyang definitely likes you."
How could Bai Qingyang be so slandered? !
Li Zichou didn't worry about Xie Zhi's question anymore, he pointed to the golden dagger in Yang Dejin's arms and said, "If Bai Qingyang likes me, I'll swallow this thing on the spot!"
"Come on you! You also said that if you could really wear books, you would have eaten your laptop!"
Then don't just wear books!
If it weren't for the ancient Chinese, Yang Dejin would have personally put the laptop into Li Zichou's mouth!
Li Zishou: "..." You still remember things from so long ago...
"Eat your popsicles and go!"
Li Zishou: "..."
The two sat cross-legged on the ground arguing for a long time, both of them felt that the other party's nonsense was unreasonable. In the end, Li Zi paid no favors to Yang Dejin, and took the lead to admit defeat:
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything, you will know after you go back and pay more attention."
Yang Dejin sneered: "Then I advise you to pay more attention, don't think it's a massage after being eaten and wiped off one day." After speaking, he quickly gnawed off the remaining ice and chewed it vigorously.
Li Zichou: "...?" She heard it! This is a yellow accent!
The two each said "wood" to each other in their hearts, and then turned off the topic as if nothing had happened.
"Back to the topic, if Shuobei dares to trouble you, he must tell me in time."
Yang Dejin didn't take it seriously: "Compared to me, you should be more worried about Bai Qingyang. I was just blown up by that wild father yesterday, so I'm afraid I have a psychological shadow."
Li Zichou didn't realize it: "What wild father?"
Yang Dejin: "Just the leading prince in Shuobei."
Li Zichou was speechless: "He's called Yeludeira, what kind of wild father, remember the name clearly!"
Yang Dejin clicked his lips: "It's not the same."
"..." It's a lot worse! Isn't this name inferior? !
"Hey, I'm serious, you have to keep Bai Qingyang safe."
Li Zichou frowned, and said in a low voice, "I know that, it's just..."
Yang Dejin: "Just what?"
Seeing that Li Zifu just bowed his head and remained silent, Yang Dejin finally noticed something.
This person hasn't been in a good mood since he crossed the line with Yeludie yesterday. Yang Dejin thought she was tired, but now it seems that she has something on her mind.
Yang Dejin patted Li Zishou on the shoulder: "What are you worried about, tell me."
Li Zichou really wanted to confide, but the truth was that she didn't know how to express it, the thoughts in her mind were like tangled threads, entangled.
Seeing that Li Zishou seemed troubled, Yang Dejin asked, "Is it about Bai Qingyang?"
"Hmm..." Li Zichou nodded in a muffled voice.
"Are you afraid that you won't be able to guard Bai Qingyang well?"
Li Zichou nodded, but his words were ambiguous: "Yes...but not..."
"I was wondering if it was a wrong decision for me to keep Bai Qingyang in the palace.
"Bai Qingyang, she...should want to be free, right?
"She is still at an age yearning for beautiful things. She has the right to decide her own life. Jin, do you think I should let her go free?"
Li Zichou spoke very seriously, but Yang Dejin was taken aback when he heard it: "Is this what you are struggling with?"
Li Zichou frowned: "This is very important."
"Didn't Bai Qingyang say it all yesterday, staying in the palace is her own decision, doesn't she regret it?"
"But how do you know that's not her scene? After all, that's all you can say in that situation."
"Remuneration," Yang Dejin sighed, "You think what Bai Qingyang said are just excuses, isn't it because you are preconceived and misinterpreting her meaning?"
Li Zishou: "Yes..."
Yang Dejin: "Have you forgotten what you said just yesterday?"
Li Zichou was taken aback, yesterday she...
That's right, she accused Yeludeira of not taking Bai Qingyang's feelings into consideration in Zichen Hall, and casually uttered wild words. But what she was thinking now, didn't she ask Bai Qingyang how she felt?
Isn't she also speculating about Bai Qingyang without authorization?
Seeing that the confusion in Li Zichou's eyes was no longer deep, Yang Dejin knew that she understood a little bit: "Don't always think about the worst in everything, instead of worrying about things here, why don't you ask her face to face?
"What exactly is she thinking, Bai Qingyang will definitely answer you well.
"As for how you understand it, whether you want to believe it or not, I can't give you an answer. You have to think about it carefully." Yang Dejin said, pointing her finger on the other side's left chest.
Li Zichou looked at his left chest and raised his head: "My...○ head?"
"..." Yang Dejin almost didn't hold back, she shouted, "It's your heart, you idiot!!"
"I know, I know." Li Zichou couldn't help laughing, and quickly raised his hand to hold Yang Dejin, "My heart..."
Yang Dejin saw that she still wanted to make a joke, so she knew that she didn't have to worry about it, so she just told her: "Talk to her, you are so smart, you will know what to do."
Li Zichou was a little moved: "Thank you for trusting me so much, Yang Dejin."
Yang Dejin was disgusted by her sudden expression, turned her head away and said, "I believe in our heroine."
"Bai Qingyang is such an arrogant and self-reliant person, who can force her? Even Li Fu, the original owner, never got any advantage from her.
"If she hadn't voluntarily, she would never have said those words of Zichen Palace.
"I, an outsider, can feel her sincerity, how about you? Where is your sincerity?"
Li Zishou: "I'll let her see."
Yang Dejin showed an expression of appreciation.
"You know Bai Qingyang very well." Li Zichou said.
Yang Dejin glanced at her: "She is the heroine of the original novel, I don't know that she knows you?"
Her words contained praise for the heroine and a strong dislike for the original owner. It seemed that she could see the scumbag in the book through Li Zifu's skin, and she couldn't help but want to punch that person.
Li Zishou: "..."
Well, she understood, Yang Dejin is also a fan of Bai Qingyang.
"If you dare to bully our Bai Qingyang, let's see how I deal with you!"
"..."
Why is he still a poisonous one? !
Shouldn't we be on the same front? !
The author has something to say:
Yang Dejin: Don't be embarrassed, I'm a fan of the heroine's mother.
Li Zichou: You and Zhou Huaijin should get along very well.
Yang Dejin: Oh? So what kind of fan is he, boyfriend fan?
Li Zichou (thinking): Ummm... career fan.
Yang Dejin: ...
Li Zichou: Will you two fight over fandom?
Yang Dejin: I will give it to him directly.
Li Zichou: ...boring.
Copywriting recycling!
I need to say that at this point in time, Xiao Yang’s treatment of Master Xie is still pure but **** friendship (so it’s really not hard-spoken). It's actually a funny girl, I didn't expect it)
One more sentence, "My ○ head?", "It's your heart!!", from that famous meme.
