Chapter 213 Late Night Alone
The mutton soup is ready, and all that’s left is to cut some meat and vegetables.
Mrs. Jiang saw that there were still a few fresh fish in the kitchen. She looked around the kitchen and found that all the seasonings were available. She immediately picked out two fish and made fish balls.
Madam Wei just washed and cut things and prepared all the vegetables in the kitchen. After she finished all this, she started to prepare dinner for the servants.
When it was time to eat, the food was served by two maids that Shen Li had just bought. The older one was called Qingzhi and the younger one was called Mengxia. Shen Li did not change their names and let them use their original names.
After dinner, Lin Cuicui and Bai Yao had already subconsciously stood up to collect the dishes, but Qingzhi and Mengxia had already come over and said, "Madam, just sit down."
As they spoke, the two of them swiftly took away all the empty plates of food on the table. The whole family was still a little uncomfortable and looked at each other with blinking eyes.
There was no change in Lu Jing and Lu Nian's expressions; it was obvious that they had gotten used to it.
After eating, Shen Li returned to her Cuizhu Courtyard. The reason for coming to the courtyard was very simple, of course, it was because of the bamboo forest behind it.
In the evening, Shen Li played with Tuanzi in the space for a long time. During this time, Tuanzi ate and drank in the space. Without the threat from the outside world, he felt happy and fat. I don't know how much weight the whole bear has gained.
But the hair on its body is full and shiny. Every time Shen Li sees it, she likes it very much and wants to hold it and touch it for a long time.
Just after coming out of the space, she heard a knock on the door. Shen Li was startled, and after seeing who was outside the door clearly, she was furious.
"Master Pei, are you free?"
Shen Li, who was originally furious, asked this question as soon as she opened the door, but the next second, Odds' words made her feel completely disappointed.
"Where did you go just now? I knocked on the door for a long time, but I didn't notice you inside. Where did you go in the middle of the night?"
Although Shen Li was wearing clothes, her hair was untied and hung over her shoulders, which was different from usual.
Shen Li's heart skipped a beat, but she didn't show any emotion and rolled her eyes.
"Master, it's winter and it's snowing outside. Where can I go if I'm not in my room?"
"Then why didn't I notice your breathing just now?"
"Is it not okay for me to practice breath-holding?"
Pei Yu's eyes lit up slightly, "You have this skill, hey, tell me how you practiced it?"
Shen Li: She just said it casually, how could she know how to practice it!
Only then did Shen Li smell a faint smell of blood coming from him.
I looked outside. It was snowing heavily. The man didn't even wear a cloak. He was wearing black clothes. I couldn't tell where he was injured. I frowned and asked:
"Where have you been so late at night? Are you injured?"
Pei Yu's lips turned a little pale due to blood loss, but at this moment the corners of his lips were raised, forming a beautiful arc.
Shen Li: Is this guy stupid? How can he be so happy even though he is injured?
Perhaps the meaning in her eyes was too obvious, Pei Yu restrained his smile to avoid being treated as a fool by her, which would be counterproductive.
"I was attacked by several enemies."
Shen Li admired his ability to attract hatred, and asked sincerely: "Master, how did you manage to offend so many people and make everyone want to kill you?"
Pei Yu curled the corners of his lips. He had the leverage over those people in his hands, so naturally they wanted to kill him.
Looking at his pale face and thinking of the gift he gave her, she couldn't bear it anymore and stepped aside: "Come in."
Pei Yu walked into the room and sat down. It was his first time entering Shen Li's room. He felt a little uncomfortable. He didn't look around, and his ears were a little red, but it was not obvious in the dark.
He has already entered Ali's room, so does that prove that he has made a little progress?
Shen Li closed the door at the back, picked up a tinder, lit two candles, and placed them on the table. The light in the room suddenly became brighter.
Turn around and walk to the other side, where there are bookshelves, desks, and a medicine box.
"Where are you injured?" she asked as she took out some medicine and gauze.
"The lower back."
"Undress me so I can see the wound."
After he finished speaking, Pei Yu looked a little awkward, but he still undressed.
"Why are you being so pretentious? It's not like you haven't seen it before."
Shen Li spoke very quietly, but the room was so quiet, and Pei Yu had good hearing, so he heard everything clearly.
His hands trembled. How come he had no recollection of when he saw it?
Could it be the time when he saved me in the mountains?
Thinking of the injuries he had at that time, he swallowed his saliva and thought, could it be that he had been seen naked?
While he was distracted, Shen Li had already seen the wound on his lower back. The wound was very deep. If it was deeper, he would have been cut in the kidney.
Shen Li went to find a small bottle of strong liquor and a basin of warm water next to it, intending to disinfect the wound. "Bear with it, the wound is deep, wash it with liquor."
After waiting for a while without hearing any response, she turned her head and found that the man was in a daze. That was good. Shen Li picked up the gauze and wiped off the blood around him.
No one knew what the man was thinking, and he didn't react until the wine was changed, when he felt his muscles contract.
"Come back to your senses. What were you thinking about just now? You didn't even respond when I talked to you."
"Well, it's okay. I just thought of something else."
Shen Li moved very quickly and Pei Yu felt pain, but what was even more torturous was the itchiness brought by the girl's hand when it touched his skin, which made him feel itchy.
After treating his wound, Shen Li picked up a clean cloth and then took the time to glance at Pei Yu's waist and almost whistled.
In fact, physical action is more practical. The whistle has been blown, but there is no sound.
Pei Yu's body tensed up even more, he lowered his eyes and looked, two white, tender and smooth hands went around his lower back. Although there was no physical contact, this scene was enough to make his heart flutter.
The man's Adam's apple rolled and he closed his eyes to clear his mind. Soon, the girl's cold voice brought him back to his senses.
"All right."
Shen Li put away the medicine box and saw that the man was still sitting there motionless. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why? Are you injured too badly and can't go back?"
"Ahem." Pei Yu put his hand to his lips and coughed lightly to cover up. "No, they are still waiting for me outside. I will leave now."
……
"Tianqing, do you think your master's self-torture trick will work? I don't think Miss Shen is the kind of person who is soft-hearted."
Not far from the Shen family, two people squatted on a tree. They waited for a long time but Pei Yu didn't come out. They were a little bored.
Tianqing replied in a serious tone: "Master hasn't come out for so long, he must have succeeded."
"That shouldn't be the case," Mo Qing stroked his chin, "Could it be that Pei Yu gave the girl some gift?"
