Chapter 118: Fighting with Long Zhan
Murong Xue had just come out of Lanling Realm when she heard this: "I know."
After she finished washing, she realized that she had forgotten to bring clothes, but she couldn't get them from Lan Lingjie.
"Long Zhan? Long Zhan?" Murong Xue tried calling twice, but found no one responded, so she walked out wrapped in a bath towel.
Sure enough, there was no one in the room. Was I going to wear that dragon-like clothes? Never mind, I'll just find something to wear first.
I'll call Zheng Shuang later and ask her to buy a few for me.
Murong Xue thought about it and walked to the cloakroom. She opened the door and what caught her eye was a row of women's clothes.
Long Zhan walked in with a pile of documents and computers, and looked at her staring at the clothes in a daze: "I don't know if it fits you, just wear it for now, if you don't like it I'll have someone make it for you."
Murong Xue turned and looked at Long Zhan: "Is this for me?"
Long Zhan nodded: "What else? You don't think I..."
"When did you prepare it?" Murong Xue interrupted his nonsense.
"This morning."
Murong Xue didn't say anything else. She walked into the cloakroom, closed the door, took out a set of light blue underwear, and picked out a skirt of the same color embroidered with small white flowers and put them on.
Long Zhan looked at the beautiful and elegant little woman and really wanted to eat her and let her merge into his bones and blood.
Looking at her wet hair, Long Zhan took a dry towel and walked over to wipe it for her: "It's cold at night, you need to blow dry your hair."
Murong Xue let him wipe her hair, walked to the table and sat down, drinking a glass of water first. Looking at the food on the table, she felt that the peaches she had just eaten were wasted.
"Mm, this is delicious, and this one too."
Long Zhan watched her eat with doting eyes, wiped her hair, dried it with his mysterious power, and then clumsily braided her hair.
"If you like it, I'll make it for you later."
"Did you make all these?" Murong Xue asked in surprise, holding chopsticks and pointing at the four dishes and a soup.
Long Zhan fixed his hair: "Well, I don't like eating out. Another reason is that I'm afraid that someone will tamper with the food. I've been able to cook since I was a child. I know both northern and southern cuisines."
Murong Xue lowered her head and continued eating, this time she didn't even raise her head: "It tastes really good, it's a pity that you don't become a cook."
"Haha, I just cook it myself and eat it. I think it's cleaner and more hygienic than outside."
"Indeed, you are very good, but I am not good enough. I don't have the talent in this area.
I tell you, even dogs won’t eat the food I cook.”
"Haha, it just so happens that I can cook. Just tell me what you want to eat and I'll make it for you. I promise that I won't make the same dish twice within a week," Long Zhan said happily.
At this moment, he felt that he and Murong Xue were like a couple who had been together for a long time.
Murong Xue: “…” She remained silent and continued eating.
I didn't respond. After finishing my meal, I actually forgot about this guy... Humph.
Murong Xue finished eating and Long Zhan cleaned up.
After that, Long Zhan took care of his own affairs, and Murong Xue sat on the single sofa next to her and read books. These were her great-grandmother's medical books that Yin Yin helped her find.
These medical books are all written in vertical lines of traditional Chinese characters. Fortunately, there are annotations, otherwise it would be difficult for her to read.
There are one or two blank spaces every few lines of text, where some words, annotations to the lyrics, and some of her opinions are marked in small regular script.
She recognized these fonts and didn't expect that the original owner's great-grandmother had such excellent medical skills.
The more I watched, the more I felt sad, and the more I felt sorry for the original owner's grandmother. I was also saddened by the various aspects of the world and the complexity of human nature.
With the changes of history and the passage of time, how did she live out her life?
Couldn't she be a little more selfish? Could she repay her nanny and her family in other ways?
But she chose the stupid method of "hurting one thousand of her own and eight hundred of the enemy", and ended up with a situation where both sides suffered losses.
What about Long Huang? He also sacrificed his lonely life, not to mention that old man Cang Daoming.
Maybe it's because he has never been serious, so he is so free and lives so leisurely.
Haha, he lived like that all his life...
Long Zhan looked at the little girl who was reading quietly. She was curled up on the sofa under the light, like an eternal sculpture.
Her beauty and quietness seem to be isolated from the world, making people feel a unique sense of tranquility and peace from her.
How nice it would be if they could continue like this forever. Thinking of this, his eyes dimmed a little and sometimes he really wanted to hide her.
Unfortunately, he couldn't do that. He didn't belong to himself after all, but he really had fallen deeply in love with her.
The words of his grandfather still often echoed in his ears...but he felt that if he loved her, he had to love her purely.
It can't be mixed with anything else, otherwise it will become alienated over time... He doesn't want that.
My mother said that a strong woman is afraid of a clinging man. Yes, he is going to cling to her now, in order to win her favor, face and so on... what is that?
"What's wrong? Have you encountered any problems?" Murong Xue looked up and saw Long Zhan staring at her in a daze.
"No, it's just that you are so charming that I was mesmerized by you for a moment."
"Slippery ass, why don't you go out with your friends? Have a drink or something?"
"I seldom go to places like that. Not only is it messy, but the air is also bad."
"You do not have friends?"
"Yes, they are all married and are probably at home with their wives and children at this time," Long Zhan said with a sense of loneliness and sadness.
Isn’t it true? All my friends have already started their own families and careers.
Some married early, and their children are already teenagers...
Murong Xue: “…” What we talked about today.
Putting down the book in his hand, he changed his clothes and said, "Let's go and have a competition."
"Okay," it was a good opportunity for him to vent.
The two went downstairs to the gym and saw Li Xiangdong and Zheng Shuang exercising.
Li Xiangdong was puzzled: "What are you doing?"
Murong Xue: "Exercise."
The two men walked to the martial arts training area and stood on each side.
Long Zhan laughed loudly: "Begin."
Murong Xue threw a punch, but Long Zhan dodged it by leaning back.
Murong Xuejin followed with a sweeping kick, and Long Zhan turned over neatly.
Li Xiangdong and Zheng Shuang cheered while watching from the side.
Murong Xue took advantage of the victory and pursued the two men, and they fought back and forth, and finally the two started close combat.
Murong Xue used the fighting skills she learned in her previous life, let's call it her previous life, which also contained some Chinese Kung Fu.
The punches she threw were like afterimages, attacking from top to bottom, and surprisingly, Long Zhan had no power to fight back. He retreated step by step and kept on defending.
