Quick Wear: The Sickly Boss Is Addicted to Spoiling Me

Chapter 877: Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, cold beauty x killer 11

"Aren't you worried that you'd be tired?"

There was a subtle concern in Shen Xi's tone, but his eyes were a little vague and he didn't dare to look directly into Xie Qi's eyes.

There was a subtle atmosphere in the air, as if the air around it had become a little sticky, making people's heartbeats speed up.

Fortunately, Shen Xi had asked Wangcai to give false testimony before, otherwise he really didn’t know how to explain the current situation at this moment.

Shen Xi looked at Xie Qi, who was squatting in front of him and seemed to be thinking about something, and his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

He thought Xie Qi had noticed something, so he quietly moved his feet back guiltily, trying to create some distance, and said calmly, "Why don't we ask the host if he has any medicine?"

"No need." Xie Qi answered simply, with no emotion in his voice.

"You didn't really find out, did you?"

Shen Xi's heart was in turmoil, and he tried hard to control his expression, not letting his inner panic show.

However, just as he was daydreaming, Xie Qi suddenly took out a small medicine bottle from his arms.

"This is……"

Shen Xi was stunned for a moment and looked at the small bottle in confusion.

"It's a medicinal wine. It's the recipe given to me by my master who brought me into the organization. It's very easy to use. It will heal in two days after you apply it."

Shen Xi looked at the medicine bottle in Xie Qi's hand and felt a little relieved, but new questions came to his mind. "Why do you carry this with you?"

Xie Qi smiled and began to explain: "When performing missions outside, getting injured is common.

My master always said, 'Plan ahead for a rainy day, so you can be prepared for any eventuality.' So every time I go on a mission, I always bring some commonly used medicines, and this medicinal wine is one of them."

Shen Xi looked at him and smiled, and was stunned.

This is the first time I see him smile in this world.

And at this moment of daze, Xie Qi had already poured the medicinal wine into his palm.

Shen Xi was stunned again.

The progress is so fast, it's a bit unreasonable.

Before he could say anything, Xie Qi had already put his hand on his ankle.

Shen Xi's ankle felt the warmth of Xie Qi's palm, and his heartbeat quickened.

He thought Xie Qi would directly hand him the medicinal wine, but he didn't expect Xie Qi to apply it on him personally. This intimate gesture made him a little overwhelmed, but a warm feeling surged in his heart.

"Actually... I can come by myself." Shen Xi tried to hide his embarrassment, with an unnatural tremor in his voice.

“没关系，我来吧。”

"Why are you so nice to me?"

When the question came out, Xie Qi was stunned for a moment.

Then he said something against his will.

“It’s just my job.”

However, his gradually reddening ears and his rising favorability revealed his true thoughts at the moment.

"Congratulations to the host. The favorability of the main plot target has risen to 40%. I hope the host will continue to work hard."

The next morning, sunlight shone into the house through the thin window paper, and the air was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood.

Shen Xi got up early, wearing only a plain white dress, and sat quietly in front of the window, reading scriptures.

His expression was focused and peaceful, as if the noise from the outside world had nothing to do with him.

This was the scene Xie Qi saw when he walked into the room. Shen Xi's profile looked particularly soft in the candlelight, and his long eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes.

His fingers flicked the pages of the book, his movements gentle and graceful.

Xie Qi's heart couldn't help but move.

He walked up quietly, stood behind Shen Xi, and stared at him quietly.

Shen Xi seemed to sense the gaze behind him, raised his head, and saw that it was Xie Qi, the corners of his mouth slightly raised. "You're here."

"Yeah." Xie Qi nodded, but his eyes involuntarily stayed on Shen Xi's face. "What are you looking at?"

"Some scriptures." Shen Xi replied softly, showing the pages in his hand to Xie Qi. "The abbot said that meditation can help us calm down."

Xie Qi nodded, but his eyes were a little wandering.

He looked at Shen Xi, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.

He knew that his affection for Shen Xi was growing deeper and deeper, and this feeling made him feel both uneasy and expectant.

"Yesterday...thank you." Shen Xi said suddenly, with a hint of sincerity in his voice.

Xie Qi was stunned for a moment, then smiled. "No need to thank me, it's just my job."

However, his gradually reddening ears and his rising favorability betrayed his true thoughts at the moment.

"Congratulations to the host. The favorability of the main plot target has risen to 45%. I hope the host will continue to work hard."

The system's prompt sounded in Shen Xi's mind, making him feel happy.

He looked at Xie Qi, his heart filled with gratitude and warmth. He knew that his feelings towards Xie Qi were also quietly changing.

This change made him feel confused and expectant at the same time.

"Let's meditate together." Shen Xi said softly, handing the scripture in his hand to Xie Qi.

Xie Qi nodded, took the scripture, and sat opposite Shen Xi. The two of them sat quietly in front of the candlelight, reading the scriptures, with a faint sandalwood scent and a subtle atmosphere in the air.

In this quiet morning, the two people's hearts seemed to be quietly getting closer.

The two of them spent almost the entire three days in the temple like this.

Until the night before we were due to leave, the weather was not very good, with lightning and thunder, and the temperature dropped sharply.

But it was already late at night, and Shen Xi couldn't disturb the host in the middle of the night, so he asked him to add more quilts.

But it’s very cold, there’s nothing we can do.

Then I can only trouble other people.

Thinking of this, he held a pillow and knocked on Xie Qi's door.

He was not wearing an outer coat, only a light-colored cloak, which swayed gently in the rhythm of the wind, as if it had life.

The edge of the cloak rose slightly in the wind, as if to wrap him in a mysterious atmosphere.

The waist-length hair swayed freely under the caress of the wind, and every strand seemed to be endowed with spirituality, dancing in elegant arcs in the air.

The hair glowed with a faint luster under the sunlight, like fine silk, emitting a soft light.

He stood quietly under the eaves, the shadow of the eaves perfectly outlining his slender figure, as if adding a natural filter to his entire body.

The white figure is particularly eye-catching in the interweaving of shadow and light.

The plain white clothes clung to his body, outlining his slightly thin but upright figure, which made people feel pity for him.

His face looked even more handsome against the white background. His fair skin seemed to be able to radiate light, and his eyes and eyebrows revealed a faint melancholy and tranquility.

His eyes were deep and clear, as if hiding endless secrets, making people want to find out.

The wind continued to blow, and the hem of his cloak flapped gently against his legs, making a slight sound.

"It's cold sleeping alone in the room, but it's so late, I don't want to disturb the host, can we sleep together tonight?"
