Chapter 674: Chapter 415 Zhao Lingfei: Whose Baby Bump is This? (Part 3)
About an hour earlier.
East Fence Small House.
Inside the north room, in front of the bookshelf in the corner.
A small injured Fox Demon curled up, leaning against the bookshelf, held her knees with one hand and her mouth tightly with the other, sobbing silently.
At that moment, a soft sound was heard as the door was pushed open from the outside.
In the doorway appeared a figure in a long white robe, pausing for a moment before stepping inside.
"Silly girl, what are you crying for?"
A familiar voice that Su Xiaoxiao had heard in her dreams the night before suddenly said.
Her body trembled violently like a piece of window paper flapping in the strong wind.
The next second, the trembling Fox Demon shrank back even more but dared not turn around.
By now, Zhao Rong, dressed in a white robe, had walked in front of the bookshelf.
On his way, his gaze scanned the room, but he didn’t find any suspicious signs that a major altercation had taken place, and he quietly sighed in relief.
Zhao Rong walked up to the crouching Fox Demon, facing her, and squatted down.
"Silly girl, stop crying. Who bullied you?"
While speaking, he glanced at a book that appeared to have fallen from the shelf and was open on the floor, as well as a corner of a letter sticking out from its pages.
It looked somewhat familiar... someone mumbled to himself.
Facing the newcomer and the familiar face that was close at hand, Su Xiaoxiao’s body involuntarily trembled, then leaned back slightly. freewēbnoveℓ.com
At this moment, one hand was braced against the ground behind her, and the other was still tightly covering her mouth, holding back all sobs.
Her originally adorable and charming fox eyes were now swollen and red from crying.
The little Fox Demon from Qiantang Mountain trembled her shoulders, widened her eyes, covered her mouth, and stared at Zhao Rong without responding.
She just watched dreamily at the malicious face that had haunted her dreams for months.
Zhao Rong saw that the silly girl was dazed and not speaking, slightly helpless.
Since the unexpected welcoming ceremony outside Hanjing City a few days ago, and the subsequent busy days weaving through various powers in Hanjing to prepare for the sealing ceremony, he was exhausted enough.
Well, mainly dealing with the young woman wearing the phoenix robe and sitting on the highest throne in Great Li took a toll on him... and there were other matters related to cultivation. After being busy for several days, he now took the time to return to the Academy to handle some important matters; having jolted on the Cloud Sea Ferry for half a day and a night, and yet, how could he encounter these things as soon as he came back?
But... it was also fortunate that he came back.
A man can bear the hardship and fatigue as long as the flag at home doesn’t fall, and there can be fluttering flags outside... Zhao Rong self-mockingly curled his lips.
At this moment, looking at the swollen, red eyes that pained his heart, Zhao Rong leaned closer, stared at Su Xiaoxiao, and said seriously:
"Xiaoxiao, what exactly happened? Tell me first, who has bullied you? It—it isn’t me, is it? Cough, you should say what happened first and then... listen to my excuses."
The man spoke earnestly, but the usually smiley Fox Demon, who would cheer up with just a cajoling from her lover, was not easily amused this time.
Zhao Rong saw that Su Xiaoxiao still did not speak, just gazed at him dazedly, and he pursed his lips. Then, he glanced to the side and gently flipped open the fallen book on the floor.
As the letter came into view and a familiar refreshing orchid fragrance entered his nose again, the young scholar squatting beside the injured Fox Demon couldn’t help but pat his forehead.
So the case is solved, thanks to Zhu Yourong.
No, really, why did you make a letter smell so strongly?
At the moment, Zhao Rong calmly reinserted the letter into the book of Imperial Records and then took the book, abruptly standing up.
The Fox Demon’s eyes, swollen and red, stopped shedding the two lines of clear tears, seemingly unable to squeeze out any more. Her small trembling shoulders spasmodically hiccuped as she cried; her muffled gaze followed his movements.
Zhao Rong’s body was slender; with a slight lift of his hand, he re-stuffed the trouble-making book back into the highest gap in the bookshelf, all of this done in front of Su Xiaoxiao.
"Wuu wuu wuu..." The little Fox Demon cried even harder, yet she had no more tears to shed and could only sob dryly, hiccupping with each sob.
Her hoarse nasal voice was full of extreme grievances, self-pity, and sorrow over wasted affection for a good man.
Su Xiaoxiao burst into tears with a loud cry, her hands no longer covering her mouth.
"Wah wuu wuu—!"
She suddenly buried her head, no longer wanting to look at him.
Zhao Rong’s expression remained calm as he clapped his hands and squatted down again, shamelessly moving his head closer to Su Xiaoxiao, attempting to peek at her hidden little face.
He even nudged her with his forehead.
Like a little pig nuzzling a fresh and juicy bok choy.
The next second, the situation between the two under the bookshelf changed dramatically.
Su Xiaoxiao suddenly withdrew her hands, forcefully pushing him away.
Zhao Rong’s large hands swiftly captured her small ones, and his tall body leaned forward, pulling Su Xiaoxiao into his embrace.
The little Fox Demon instinctively struggled with all her might, twisting her small body.
But Zhao Rong was no longer the frail scholar he once was, especially in recent days when he had made a breakthrough. Therefore, his strength was even greater than hers, and he quickly enclosed Su Xiaoxiao entirely in his arms.
The little Fox Demon’s soft bosom pressed tightly against Zhao Rong’s solid chest, leaving no gap.
Face to face, nose to nose.
Their foreheads even lightly collided.
The breath of the other was right before each other’s eyes.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
