This arena is not ordinary

Chapter 71 Jealous?

Shen Lin was taken aback, subconsciously thinking that he had misread.

How can it be?

How could Lady Liu not be wearing...

Just as Shen Lin fixed his eyes and wanted to see more clearly, he suddenly noticed a trace of murderous aura suddenly attacking around him.

The cold breath made Shen Lin shiver.

It was only then that he noticed Liu Xu's gaze at this moment, cold and ashamed, her beautiful eyes stared at him fiercely, her expression flustered and blushing.

"you……"

Shen Lin subconsciously wanted to say something.

"To shut up!"

Liu Xu interrupted him with a cold tone of embarrassment, then walked away quickly and ran back to the room.

Shen Lin looked at her panic-stricken figure with a suspicious expression on his face.

Her reaction...

Really not wearing it? !

……

After a brief moment of absence, Shen Lin quickly came back to his senses and shook his head.

It must be a mistake!

How could Lady Liu not be wearing it?

Shen Lin only thought it was impossible, maybe he misread it, right?

However, when Liu Xu's graceful figure first appeared in his mind, Shen Lin felt an indescribable throbbing in his heart.

She... is a little foul!
If she is a widow, she doesn't pay attention to the influence?

Thinking of this, Shen Lin got up and went to the backyard, he planned to take a cold shower to calm down.

In the bathroom, the heat that has not completely dissipated is accompanied by a faint fragrance.

This faint fragrance came from Liu Xu's body. After smelling it for a while, Shen Lin became more and more restless.

He took off his clothes, turned on the homemade shower, and let the cold water pour over his body.

The cold water rushed over his body, washing away the heat and impetuosity of summer, and slowly calming down Shen Lin's throbbing heart.

After taking a comfortable cold shower, Shen Lin became more awake.

Just as he was wiping himself and getting dressed, he was about to leave.

Suddenly, what did he see?
In the corner on the other side of the bathroom, there are some clothes.

This is……

Liu Xu changed the laundry just now?
Shen Lin originally just glanced at it and didn't take it seriously.

However, when he occasionally caught a glimpse of the clothes scattered on the ground, there were clearly some undergarments that had been washed, and the light-colored apron, Shen Lin couldn't be more familiar with it.

... Shen Lin had seen it before when she was applying medicine to treat her wound.

She forgot to take it?

and many more……

Shen Lin suddenly seemed to think of something, and the expression on his face gradually froze.

……

forecourt.

Standing in the yard, Shen Lin glanced at the closed door not far away.

After Liu Xu returned to the room, she never came out again.

She should... dare not come out, right?
Sure enough, Liu Xu closed the door tightly all afternoon and stayed at home.

Until night fell, after Shen Lin tossed and cooked in the kitchen alone, he ran to the door and knocked.

"time to eat!"

no response.

Huh?
Don't eat any food?
Shen Lin yelled twice, but there was no response from the room.

never mind!

Do not eat and pull down!
Shen Lin planned to enjoy the food alone.

However, not long after he returned to the table and sat down, a figure appeared and sat down opposite Shen Lin.

It was catkins!

Well, the body is still quite honest!

Shen Lin glanced at her quietly, and saw that her expression was normal.

With his still cold face, he kept silent and did not speak to Shen Lin.Just serve rice silently, eat!
That head of jet-black hair had already dried, and it was scattered softly, adding a bit of homely beauty.

She no longer looks like the cold heroine she used to be.

Now she is more like an ordinary girl from a good family.

The cold face, although it was cold, looked pleasing to the eye.

Who doesn't like a good look?

Seeming to have thought of something suddenly, Shen Lin followed Liu Xu's face and subconsciously glanced down...

However, before his eyes could reach the destination, Shen Lin felt the cold murderous aura again.

Raising his eyes, he realized that Liu Xu was staring at him coldly.

There was a bit of unkindness in the cold eyes.

"What are you looking at?!"

The cold tone was somewhat threatening.

"cough……"

Shen Lin coughed lightly like a guilty conscience: "No, I didn't see anything..."

With that said, Shen Lin shifted his gaze.

Liu Xu stared at Shen Lin, a blush inadvertently appeared on the cheeks covered by loose hair.

Hide away soon.

"Look again, I dug out your eyes!"

It's a bit of a vicious threat, but it doesn't seem to have much threatening effect.

Shen Lin started to eat, but his eyes still subconsciously and inadvertently glanced at Liu Xu, wanting to verify certain things...

How do you say that?

The more you can't get something, the more you want to get an answer!
This is Shen Lin's current state!
Earlier, in the bathroom, he saw catkins changed into the underwear that he didn't have time to take away.

This reminded him of one thing suddenly.

Among the clothes he brought from Miao Miao, there seemed to be no close-fitting clothing... Obviously, Miao Miao must have forgotten, or maybe the girl was shy, so she was not prepared.

But Shen Lin vaguely remembered that Liu Xu was injured and stained her underwear before, and with the underwear she changed and washed today, she was connected to the scene she had seen before.

This made Shen Lingui a little suspicious...

Did this heroine really hang up the neutral gear before?
So brave? !

This incident aroused Shen Lin's great interest.

He tried his best to prove it clearly...

However, when he noticed Liu Xu's unfriendly gaze, Shen Lin still held back his curiosity!
Forget it, don't play it dead!
A meal ended in a weird atmosphere.

After eating, Liu Xu got up and was about to leave.

"Your injury..."

Shen Lin stopped her again: "What's the matter?"

Liu Xu paused, turned her back to Shen Lin, and hesitated for a moment.

"Not yet!"

……

After half an hour.

Shen Lin knocked on her door as promised.

As usual, he came in with a basin of hot water.

In the dim yellow room, the light is very dim.

On the bed not far away, Liu Xu was lying prone as usual.The clothes on his upper body were removed, and the snow-white wound on his back was exposed to the air.

Shen Lin came to the bedside, planning to help her bandage the wound.

However, when Shen Lin's eyes fell on Liu Xu's back, he was taken aback for a moment.

The wound has scabbed over, and the shocking wound before has gradually healed now.

Shen Lin couldn't help being a little surprised.

It's only been a few days, and she recovered from her injury so quickly?
This, is a bit outrageous, right?

What's more, her injuries are almost out of the way, and there is no need to continue bandaging her!

Just when Shen Lin was wondering, Liu Xu lying on the bed moved.

"On the table, there is medicine..."

The voice was very soft, and seemed to tremble a little.

It seems to be nervous!

Shen Lin looked back, only to see several small porcelain bottles on the table.

"what is this?"

Shen Lin picked up the small porcelain bottle and found some powder paste inside. He took a closer look and smelled a faint herbal fragrance.

It smells good!
What's this?What's the use?

"Help, help me smear..."

The voice of Liu Xu, whose head was buried under the quilt, was a little muffled.

No one noticed that her neck under her hair was already flushed red.

smear?

Although Shen Lin didn't know what the powder was for, he still poured out the ointment according to Liu Xu's request, and then slowly and evenly spread it on the wound.

Fingers just touched the skin.

"Um……"

Under the quilt, Liu Xu's tender body suddenly tensed up.

I don't know if it's pain or what, those slender white fingers inadvertently grasped the bed sheet tightly...

After the ointment was completely applied, Shen Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

"and then?"

"No, no need..."

Liu Xu's voice was still very soft, as if trembling.

"Then I went out?"

"Ah."

Shen Lin was about to get up and leave, but he seemed to think of something, and inadvertently followed Liu Xu's smooth and white pink back and slowly glanced to both sides, as if wanting to verify something.

When he saw that there really seemed to be nothing... Shen Lin's expression gradually became strange.

Satisfied with getting the answer he wanted, Shen Lin packed his things and left the room.

In the room, Liu Xu was still lying on the bed without moving.

The powder smeared on her back was being absorbed by her skin bit by bit, and slowly disappeared at a speed that could almost be noticed by the naked eye.

If Shen Lin saw this scene, he would definitely be surprised.

As the powder was absorbed bit by bit, the scab on Liu Xu's back seemed to fade a bit...

……

Outside.

The evening wind in summer is getting hotter and hotter.

Even at night, with the hot wind blowing, Shen Lin's mood was somewhat affected.

He took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself down gradually.

But I don't know why, but I still can't calm down!
problem occurs……

Ever since such an unexpected guest broke into his home, Shen Lin's originally peaceful life was broken.

More importantly, living under the same roof with this heroine Liu, so many things happened...

Lonely men and widows, the situation is worrying!
Shen Lin also had to admit, maybe it started from the first time he saw this woman's body, or maybe it started from her saying "marry me" that night.

His original peaceful state of mind was broken!
This heroine, who had just met by chance, unconsciously left an indelible impression on Shen Lin's heart.

Is this... good or bad?
Shen Lin was somewhat confused!

In the almost three years since he came to this world, he has never had great ambitions.

He didn't want to be named an official or a general, nor did he want to make a fortune.Lazy, he stayed in this small Qingshui County for nearly three years.

Repeatedly going to the yamen every day, patrolling the streets, saying hello to the neighbors in the neighborhood and chatting about homework.From time to time, I would be lazy, bragging with Xu Pingan, or cursing with Chen Jianghe to enjoy myself...

Live peacefully and fulfillingly!
As for personal matters? ?
Shen Lin really hadn't thought about this question.

He doesn't belong to this world, even after getting along with Miaomiao Uncle Lin, Xu Ping'an and others, he gradually accepted everything here.But in the final analysis, his body hides a soul that does not belong here.

Therefore, he doesn't like others intruding into his personal space at will.

Furthermore, getting married depends on fate.

Qingshui County is not small, but it is not too big either.How many ladies and women of good families there are in the city, and from time to time, neighbors in the neighborhood can hear discussions.

There is also a good matchmaker who often finds Shen Lin and wants to introduce women to him.However, the woman that the matchmaker introduced to Shen Lin... was hard to describe.

Either she is a frail and sickly weak woman, or she has an indescribable appearance, or a rich woman from a wealthy family... The gentle, kind, knowledgeable and courteous daughter of a rich family in Shen Linyuan has never appeared before!
Therefore, he didn't think about it again.

Until, catkins appeared!

……

Just as Shen Lin was thinking wildly, the door of the room behind him suddenly opened.

Liu Xu appeared at the door, walked to his side, glanced at him, and said nothing.

Shen Lin also politely glanced back at her, two, three times... When his eyes couldn't help falling down to the familiar position, he couldn't see the familiar tip of the lotus...

Shen Lin secretly sighed, a little regretful.

It wasn't until Liu Xu's cold gaze stared at him that he restrained his gaze.

"still not going to sleep?"

Liu Xu said lightly, "I can't sleep!"

The tone was very calm, and the expression was indifferent, as if what happened before did not exist at all.It became something that the two of them did not mention in tacit agreement.

"Today, I met two women outside the city..."

Shen Lin hesitated, and told Liu Xu about the two women he met outside the city today.

Those two people have good backgrounds, most of them are people from the Jianghu.As a person in the Jianghu, Liu Xu would know something?
After Liu Xu finished listening, her pretty slender eyebrows frowned slightly, thoughtfully.

"Did you see or hear about them when you were in Jianghu?"

Shen Lin glanced at her.

The woman in red who wanted to kill him today had extremely high martial arts skills.Shen Lin reckoned that it should be at the same level as Liu Xu?

He had asked Xu Ping'an before that there were not many beautiful women with extremely high martial arts skills in this Jianghu.

Therefore, can we get some clues from Liu Xu?
Liu Xu calmly said: "They are not from the world!"

"Not from the rivers and lakes?"

Shen Lin was startled, then realized... Liu Xu knew them? !

Just when Shen Lin was about to ask further questions, Liu Xu's eyes inadvertently fell on Shen Lin's wrist.

On his left wrist, he was wearing the red bracelet given by Lin Miaomiao.

He stared at it for a moment, then thought of something, his face changed slightly.

"what happened?"

Shen Lin suddenly felt the breath of the heroine beside him turn cold, and when he looked back, he found Liu Xu staring at him expressionlessly.

Immediately, his eyes glanced at the dark place not far from the yard.Seemingly inadvertently asked: "Where did you get the bracelet?"

"Bracelet?!"

Shen Lin lowered his head, saw the bracelet on his wrist, and chuckled lightly: "You said this, this is a gift from Miao Miao..."

In the middle of speaking, Shen Lin suddenly realized something was wrong.

Something is wrong!
Very wrong!
Why did Liu Xu inexplicably ask about the origin of the bracelet?
And her tone of voice...

Shen Lin, who instinctively reacted to the danger, turned his head subconsciously, and found that Liu Xu's cold side face seemed to be covered with a bit of frost.

very cold!

It was the kind of coldness that emerged from the bottom of my heart.

As if realizing something... Shen Lin lowered his head and glanced at the bracelet, then at the catkins with a frosty face.

The words that came to his lips were abruptly changed.

"I picked it up."

"..."
