He didn’t ask about the phone anymore.

Instead, he asked, “How did you know about this place?”

As he spoke, there was no expression on his face.

“I heard it from someone else.”

“They said that this place will be developed into a scenic area in the future. The scenery is very good. I wanted to see what it looked like before it was developed, and I realised that it was actually very beautiful.”

She looked into the distance. “I wonder if it’s because I’m the only one who can see the undeveloped scenery.”

Qi Jing looked at her and was silent for a moment.

He asked, “Then do we continue to watch?”

“No.”

“If we watch too much, we’ll feel that it’s just too ordinary.”

He turned around and looked at Qi Jing.

“Brother Qi, I’m glad you came to find me. Let’s go back.”

He was about to stand up, but when he tried to, his body swayed.

Qi Jing was so shocked that he quickly held her up.

Qi Jing only reacted when he held her arm.

This was the first time he was so close to a girl, and his hand suddenly became a little stiff.

Not sure if Xia Yunshu noticed anything strange about him, but she looked up at him mischievously and said, “I’ve been sitting for too long. My legs are numb.”

She stood up and Qi Jing saw her feet.

They were small and exquisite.

However, that was not what he was more concerned about.

His attention was drawn to the fact that her feet were red and there were faint traces of blood on her toes.

Following his line of sight, Xia Yunshu saw her bare feet resting on the wooden board.

She said very calmly, “I walked barefoot on the beach for quite some time just now. It’s probably the sand on the beach.”

Qi Jing did not say a word and just stared at her.

After staring at her for a few seconds, he bent down to pick up her shoes and then carried her in his arms.

Xia Yunshu was slightly stunned.

By the time she realized what was happening, she had already wrapped her arms around his neck.

She lifted her head slightly in his arms and could only see his delicate chin.

As she looked at him, Xia Yunshu let out a low laugh.

Qi Jing, who was carrying her outside, lowered his head and looked at her when he heard her laughter. “What are you laughing at?”

His entire face was tense and extremely cold.

His voice was also very cold.

If it were any other people facing his gaze, they would probably be so frightened that their hands and feet would turn cold.

However, Xia Yunshu was not an ordinary person.

Hence, her smile became even broader.

“I’m just suddenly very happy.”

Qi Jing looked at her expressionlessly and then walked out.

When they reached the outside, Xia Yunshu saw quite a number of people.

Qi Qi greeted Qi Jing. “Young Master Qi.”

Qi Jing only uttered two words. “Go back.”

Then, they all replied in unison, “Yes!”

It was obvious that they were the people who had come to look for her with Qi Jing.

Xia Yunshu leaned against his chest and closed her eyes.

She was a little tired.

After so many years, whether it was the ten years when her soul drifted to that mysterious place and went through all kinds of hardships to learn skills, or the five years when she woke up intermittently and established the Tyrants, she was never tired.

This was the first time she was tired.

And this was the first time she felt comfortable to be completely relaxed.

Soon, she fell asleep.

She had a dream.

In the dream, she heard the sound of footsteps and turned back. 

Under the setting sun, someone walked towards her.

Against the light, she did not see his face clearly at first.

Only later when he walked closer.

There was no expression on his handsome face.

There was even a little anger.

There were beads of sweat on his forehead.

His white shirt with two buttons undone, was a little messy.

He looked a little dishevelled, but at that moment, to her, he was the most dazzling person.

She was very happy.

Even if he just looked at her and didn’t say anything.

She believed that she would never forget this scene for the rest of her life.

Walking to the side of the black car, Qi Jing was about to put her down when he saw that the girl was already sleeping soundly in his arms.

When she was asleep, she looked quiet and well-behaved.

She seemed to be more pleasing now than the first time he saw her yesterday.

He was about to her down and gestured to the rest with his eyes.

The people nearby quickly went forward to help him open the back seat door.

Probably due to his sudden gentleness, the person who opened the car door did it gently too, with little sound.

He waited for Qi Jing to carry her into the car before closing the car door gently.

Following Qi Jing’s gesture, someone drove Xia Yunshu’s car.

A crowd of people left the undeveloped scenic area..
