Was your home ransacked on your wedding day?I emptied the Marquis's house and tore my son-in-la

Chapter 202 Isn’t this heartbeat?

Shen Ru looked at Xiao Wujin with complicated eyes. No matter how slow she was, she could detect that Xiao Wujin was acting strangely towards her.

Under the starlight, Xiao Wujin's eyes were a little worried and a little hopeful.

He... likes himself?
Shen Ru had an epiphany, and his eyes suddenly shone.

"Master Xiao, what about you? Do you have a sweetheart? Is your sweetheart...me?"

Xiao Wujin was still waiting for Shen Ru's answer when he suddenly heard Shen Ru's words. His foot slipped and he almost fell off the roof.

"Mr. Xiao, why are you so excited? Or are you talking about the central issue?"

Shen Ru, with quick eyes and quick hands, held Xiao Wujin's arm.

"Shen Ru, you...you..." Xiao Wujin was shocked and embarrassed. For a moment, he couldn't even speak clearly.

"Pfft!" Shen Ru couldn't help laughing, "Mr. Xiao, it's not like you to be so clumsy and tongue-tied!"

Xiao Wujin's ears were red, her smile was as deep as a flower, and her eyes were like stars. She touched the tip of his heart like a soft laugh.

"Shen Ru, if you don't mean anything to me, why do you help me so many times? You suck snake venom for me and keep vigil for me, but you...are happy with me?"

Shen Ru was stunned, Xiao Wujin was really... very clever, but why was he so confused with Xiaolu?

"I...didn't you force me to do things? Also, you were bitten by a poisonous snake because of me, how can I still ignore you?"

Shen Ru retorted as if he had quickly found an excuse.

"Really?"

Xiao Wujin looked at Shen Ru seriously and asked.

"Probably!"

Shen Ru was also asking herself when she spoke, does she like Xiao Wujin?But she seems to have never considered emotional matters!
For her, she has actually been in this book world for less than a year, and she is busy with endless things every day. How can she have time to think about her feelings?
"You really don't care about me?"

Xiao Wujin asked in a deep voice, trying his best to calm down his voice, but it still contained a slight tremor.

"I……"

Shen Ru was also looking at Xiao Wujin carefully. Xiao Wujin looked cold and stubborn under the moonlight.

He is not as weak as a scholar. He is the governor of Liangzhou and sincerely works for the welfare of the people. She also admires him as a person.

And he was not pedantic. She didn't know why some people would say that the Liangzhou governor had no tolerance for disgrace in his eyes. According to the law, whatever he did was unreasonable.

But, everything he did was not for himself!
The green shirt on his body has been washed again and again. There are no accessories on his body, and his stern face shows no trace of scholarly spirit.

How can you say you don't like it?Shen Ruxin was a little confused. She was good at beating people, but how could she fall in love?

In my previous life, I had watched so many romantic idol dramas and articles, and it was really difficult for me to do so when it was my turn.

"I see."

While Shen Ru was hesitating, Xiao Wujin had already finished a round of brainstorming in his mind. He thought that Shen Ru was afraid that a woman would be too thin-skinned to say no; perhaps she was worried that as the governor, she would suffer because of her rejection. And punish the Shen family; or maybe she is thinking about how to compromise to save her family.

"Huh?" What does he know?Shen Ru turned to look at Xiao Wujin.

"How much money did you bring this time, and how much coarse salt are you going to buy?"

Xiao Wujin asked with a straight face.

Shen Ru blinked, a little sluggish and had not yet reacted.

"No matter how much it is, we have to hire people to transport it. Last time, I asked Ganzhou to be responsible for the transportation on the grounds that the Liangzhou government purchased it. How did you bring the coarse salt into Liangzhou last time?"

Shen Ru didn't understand how Xiao Wujin went from looking a little embarrassed just now to looking serious and talking about business now?
She said that she seemed to have a high opinion of him. Isn't it a bit inappropriate?
"I just found someone to luck it out, and I lucked it out separately. I've been doing it for a while!"

Shen Ru made an excuse and felt that this matter was really difficult. If it weren't for Xiao Wujin and Luneng, he could have solved it on his own.

"When we return to Ganzhou, let's find a good cavalry team first."

Xiao Wujin said, "There is nothing else to do. You should rest early!" As he spoke, he prepared to go down from the roof.

"careful!"

Seeing that Xiao Wujin was unstable, Shen Ru immediately took action to hold Xiao Wujin.

"I said...why did you fall out so quickly?"

"If a man and a woman can't kiss each other, let them go."

Xiao Wujin's heart trembled again. If it was unintentional, why would she take such care of herself?

"I didn't say I didn't like you, it's just..."

Shen Ru muttered, "This is too sudden. I haven't sorted out my feelings yet?"

"What did you say?"

Xiao Wujin raised his head suddenly. Did he really hear it wrong?Shen Ru said she liked him?

Meeting Xiao Wujin's eyes, Shen Ru felt shy and quickly moved over.

"I...I have never been attracted to anyone, and I can't think highly of you. I just like you."

"Master Xiao, I know what you have done for the people of Liangzhou and your ambitions. I want to help you from the bottom of my heart. I..."

Shen Ru's words were a little confusing, and her expression looked panicked and shy. She didn't think about it at all!
The atmosphere became really awkward. Under the moonlight, on the roof, the surroundings were quiet, as if... they could hear each other's heartbeats.

Shen Ru looked at Xiao Wujin and found that Xiao Wujin was also looking at her. For a moment, they both quickly looked away.

"Master Xiao, how about everyone calm down and give each other more time to sort out these emotions?"

Shen Ru suggested: "I suspect that you were affected by snake venom."

"Heh, can I admit that I was wrong if I was bitten by a snake?"

Xiao Wujin laughed at himself.

"But when you and I first met, you seemed to have a strong opinion of me!"

Shen Ru thought that the first meeting between the two was not pleasant.

Enjoying special treatment on the road to exile, at that time, he naturally felt that there was something wrong with the Shen family.

"That's my bias."

Xiao Wujin admitted it very directly.

"Even if I saved you in the future, you would still be very harsh to me. If I hadn't said that I could refine fine salt, would you have thought of letting me, the Shen family, do hard labor in Liangzhou?"

Shen Ru asked again.

Xiao Wujin was stunned for a moment. He did think so at the beginning.

"You still want me to go to the Western Region and get the topographic map of the Western Region."

Shen Ru's words reminded Xiao Wujin of what he said back then.

"So, you don't have any love at first sight for me, Mr. Xiao. After thinking about it, it's probably because you were bitten by a snake..."

"Shen Ru!"

Xiao Wujin called Shen Ru's name repeatedly.

"This has nothing to do with being bitten by a snake. I admit that I was biased against your family at the beginning, and I also thought about asking your family to cough up the money. But your behavior has gradually changed my mind. I will care about what you say. , I will worry about whether it is dangerous for you to go to the Western Regions, and when you come to me on horseback and reach out to me, my heart will beat faster and leave with you; I will also worry about you leaving Ganzhou and want to be with you."

"If this isn't what makes you happy, what is?"
