Chapter 30: Two people's silly talk interaction
When the servants pa.s.sed and saw who came, they immediately ran far, far away in terror to avoid him. Chu Qing-Yan sighed. Was the person in front of her such an evil demon, detestable to this point?
At this time, she surveyed her surroundings and noticed that the more they walked, the more remote the area became. A sense of worry couldn't help but to emerge from her heart. Where on earth was this guy who didn't breathe a word taking her to? She wasn't dumb enough not to notice when he sent Chu De-Chang away, let alone to say that she would believe this person had the leisure to carefreely stroll around Chu Family.
However, this person's surroundings seemed to have condensed into a lump of ice, emitting cold air and distancing him from human contact. Consequently, she had the heart to inquire, but didn't have the guts to say it.
Afraid that the other party would be unhappy and then snap her neck, after all, her arms and legs were short, her neck was so slender that it wouldn't be able to withstand such wreckage.
Xiao Xu, who continued to stroll forward, realized that the sounds of footsteps behind him seemed to get farther and farther away, and couldn't help but to stop his footsteps and turn around. He saw that little girl (1) holding her skirt up and running to catch up, but without much success, because his pace was too quick.
Xiao Xu watched as that little girl he had seen a few times before being unfl.u.s.tered, now anxiously trying to catch up, and couldn't help but feel a little pleased. As a result, he good-naturedly stood under a famous tall tree to wait for her.
Xiao Xu couldn't be blamed for calling Chu Qing-Yan a little girl. Even though Chu Qing-Yan had grown up in Mao village since she was small, she had done a lot of hard manual labor, not to mention that she had climbed mountains and waded through rivers. Although her age was small, her stature was already considered top-notch compared to those girls who were raised in a lady's chamber.’
But standing before Xiao Xu, she could only reach his chest, so she was still too short. Xiao Xu needed to lower his head every time to look at her, moreover, Chu Qing-Yan had a pet.i.te face, so in Xiao Xu's eyes, she was still just a little girl.
When Chu Qing Yan continued running to catch up and finally saw that glittering white gown, she finally let out a breath of relief. Only after she was able to stand steadily, did she realize something was wrong. She lifted her head immediately and she saw that tall silhouette looking even taller as the shadow was elongated under the sun and reflected on the ground near her feet.
