Chapter 148 The legacy in the castle (21)

Xia Lingge still looked at him indifferently.

'boom--'

'Boom--'

'Paji—'

'Snapped--'

"Ow-!!!"

Chen Yu squatted in the corner holding his head, Xia Lingge calmly blew down her fingertips and retracted her hand.

Si Cheng looked left and right, and then came to Shen Yu, seeming to sympathize and gloat: "Why did you say you had nothing to do with her?"

Chen Yu rubbed the aching back of his head and glared angrily: "Every girl is so cruel." He looked around again, "There are also these old monsters who didn't know how to help me when they saw me being beaten. , it hurts me to death."

Xia Lingge said indifferently: "The fight with the Ghost Bride just now consumed almost all their energy. You can't expect them to help you for a while."

"So you took the opportunity to kill me, right?" Shen Yu sneered, "The heart of a woman is the most poisonous. The ancients never deceived me."

"I've only heard of killing you while you're sick."

Xia Lingge twisted Shen Yu's collar and pulled him up again: "Stop pretending, come with me to explore the castle again. This time... maybe it will be different."

"Why does it have to be me." Shen Yu stood up following her strength and returned to his cynical look in an instant. "You are tossing me back and forth as if you are sure of something just because of the protection of a few old monsters. Isn't this a bit bad, sister?" ~”

He bent down and came closer to Xia Lingge, his warm breath deliberately spraying onto her face. He bit the word 'sister' very lightly, as if he was afraid of disturbing the treasure.

Sicheng lowered his eyelashes to cover the most sinister darkness in his eyes. For a moment, he desperately wanted to kill the person in front of him. As long as he died, no one would stand between him and his senior sister.But the next second he couldn't help but reflect, how could it be so bloody and cruel... The senior sister would not like it.

The battle between violence and rationality in his mind was well hidden by him, and neither Xia Lingge nor Shen Yu noticed anything strange.

Xia Lingge looked at the extremely excited young man in front of him and slashed hard at the back of his neck with a blade in his right hand.An extremely miserable wailing sounded in vain. Xia Lingge quietly stared at Shen Yu who was covering his neck, and said softly: "Put away those improper thoughts in your head. I am not your prey, and neither are you." Not worthy of being a hunter. As for why I have to take you with me..."

Her voice paused, and her expression was cold and sinister: "Don't you know...the only young master of the Kloster family?"

Chen Yu's hand holding his neck paused slightly, and he let out an almost inaudible tut.

Xia Lingge lowered her eyelashes and trembled. When she raised her eyes again, she returned to the pure and harmless girl she was before. She turned her head and was about to ask Si Cheng to leave, but she saw him looking at her quietly, not knowing what she was thinking. .

"What's wrong?" she asked.

"It's nothing." Si Cheng shook his head and immediately held Xia Lingge's hand. "Senior, let's go out first. Shen Yu will follow later."

Xia Lingge glanced at their intertwined hands, and then looked up at Si Cheng who was still smiling. There was obviously no change, but she felt that there was something different about the person in front of her.

She couldn't tell, so she just nodded: "Okay."

The dim candlelight could only dispel the small patch of darkness. Si Cheng quietly held her hand and walked up the steps step by step. Xia Lingge felt that the atmosphere seemed a little unusual. She raised her head and looked at his back, which was covered by the candlelight. It flickered and appeared, just like the emotions he couldn't fathom.

"Sister..."

Sicheng suddenly stopped: "Do you like depression?"

"I don't like it." Xia Lingge shook his head, "I don't like people who behave strangely and always cause me trouble."

"Then, if one day... I become depressed, will you still..."

Sicheng's voice was intermittent and finally disappeared.

Xia Lingge wondered why he suddenly asked such a question, but she still answered her own thoughts, "If one day you become a depressed person, I definitely won't like it." She felt the hand she was holding suddenly tremble, and then Clenching her fingertips tighter.

"But I will educate you well." She continued, "And I think your temperament is very different from Shen Yu's, and you should not be able to degenerate to that level."

"That is to say..."

Sicheng tilted his head slightly, his thick eyelashes passing through the firelight and disappearing into the darkness.Xia Lingge couldn't see his voice clearly, so she could only listen to him murmuring quietly:
"Senior will not leave me, right?"

"Ah."

She lives there, where can she go if she leaves?
Isn’t the house price expensive?

Xia Lingge was baffled by this question.

"Ah……"

Si Cheng chuckled softly after hearing this.

For a moment, Xia Lingge felt that something he had just suppressed suddenly relaxed, and he calmed down and turned into the well-behaved and ignorant Sicheng again.

"Let's go, sister."

He turned around and said, "We're going to the exit soon."

The study is still peaceful,
But the night outside the window has long turned into a gray sky, withered branches lying messily in front of the glass window, and strange black crows cawing non-stop, landing on the dead branches in front of the window and looking at her.

"Its daybreak."

Xia Lingge murmured.

Not long after, Shen Yu also walked out of the underground altar. He fell directly onto the soft chair like a dehydrated fish. He picked up the teacup on the round table and took a sip, but the water was so cold that he couldn't help spitting it out.

"I'm so exhausted." He couldn't help complaining, "At this time, I should lie down in the room and sleep instead of spending the whole night with you."

"Have you complained enough?" Xia Lingge interrupted him. "After you finish complaining, you can go with us to see other places. Didn't you say that there are granaries, wine cellars, and grocery rooms underground in the castle?"

Shen Yu was really resentful, "Aren't you tired?"

"tired."

Xia Lingge's words were concise and to the point: "That's why we have to hurry up."

Si Cheng interrupted her at this time, "Senior, I think we should take a rest. This castle is so big that we can't finish it in a short while, and it's full of dangers, especially if we don't have enough physical strength."

He seemed to have thought of something and suddenly smiled and said: "Let's take a rest first. I'm going to cook two Chinese dishes for my senior. In the past two days, I don't think my senior has eaten well. I guess the foreign recipes are not in line with my senior's appetite."

Xia Lingge was really hungry when she heard "Chinese food". The staple food for the past two days was either bread or slices of bread. The rare rice was paired with foreign sauces. It was okay to try something new once or twice, but it was really bad after eating too much. Somewhat greasy.

"Do you need me to help?"

Xia Lingge asked seriously.

Chen Yu's right eyelid twitched, he turned his face and couldn't help but sneer: "Double standard."

Si Cheng smiled: "No need, senior sister, just rest."

The kitchen of the castle is on the far left after a long corridor that goes around the hall. Sicheng lit the candles placed at both ends of the door, and the whole kitchen became bright. It was fully stocked with pots and pans, and it looked very clean.
