C8 A Double-edged Sword

The man wrinkled his brows, looking at Xiao Qi warily. Those tightly clenched hands, they had never let go from start to finish.

In just a moment, Xiao Qi could feel sweat seeping out from her forehead. Under his fierce gaze, even if she didn't feel guilty, she still felt guilty.

"But I remember killing the wolves and saving you." The man said coldly.

Xiao Qi was choked and didn't know how to reply. She had thought that this man wouldn't remember so much, but it turned out that she had really thought too much.

She blinked and said, "Yes, that's why I saved you."

No matter what, she didn't dare to say anything about saving her benefactors. If this was the case, then he had just saved them. However, the aftermath would be troublesome.

The man's face was solemn, he didn't even answer, looking like he wanted Xiao Qi to continue.

Xiao Qi didn't dare to say any more nonsense, and honestly explained, "We are the family members of the Sai family living here, who are you? Why did he appear here? I have already treated all the injuries on your body. Since you can wake up, that means there are no major problems. "

A perplexed look appeared on the man's face, but it was only for a moment. His eyes regained their clarity as he said, "My name is Hou Manning."

Xiao Qi nodded, waiting for him to continue, but when he finished, her mouth seemed to have been sealed, and no matter what she did, she couldn't pry it open.

"So, where are you from?" She cautiously asked. If this man could kill a wolf with a single slash, then no matter if it was strength or martial arts, they were all high level.

The man let go of her hand and half closed his eyes. With an indifferent expression, he said, "I'm hungry."

Xiao Qi rubbed her hands. After hearing his words, she looked at him in surprise. What did he mean by that? He was hungry, so, he wanted to?

The man didn't hear Xiao Qi's reaction. He raised his fierce eyes and once again said, "I'm hungry."

Xiao Qi spat out a mouthful of blood, finally understanding what he meant. Was this for her to cook? She wanted to refuse, but then she thought about his martial arts. Helpless, she could only swallow her anger and nod in agreement.

The two little radishes were rather obedient. They felt that this Hou Manning was simply a hero in their hearts, so they happily went to make white porridge.

The porridge was quickly prepared, and Xiao Qi let the two small radish head send the porridge in. Since that man had already woken up, he would naturally be able to eat by himself. There was no need for her to feed him with the bamboo tube.

She sat on a small stool in the yard and looked at the setting sun. She relaxed and began to think about what she should do. Those people were clearly not good people. If they came looking for trouble again, and Hou Manning had left by then, what would they do?

She spent the next few days in fear, and even her nightmares were tied up and thrown into the river.

When she woke up, she found that Mingyu was hugging her like a bear hugging a tree. No wonder she had nightmares.

However, she later thought that it must have been Hou's stick, which had stuck into the mud, that had played a threatening role.

The days of no one causing trouble for him were truly comfortable. Of course, if Hou Yanning was also not here.

However, from Hou Manning's brief description just now, she knew that he had lost his memory and it would probably take another half a month before he could recover. However, this was not the main point. The main point was that he did not have the humble and grateful appearance of a benefactor. Instead, he was as cold as ice and as cold as ice.

Xiao Qi felt that the house was like a huge ice cellar. Wherever she went, as long as she saw Hou Jiangning, her heart would be cold.

It only took two days for Hou Manning to recover. He began to chop wood and cultivate. In any case, he couldn't afford to be idle for even a moment.

Xiao Qi was not happy at all, on the contrary, she was lying on the edge of the rice jar, looking in, and that rice jar was about to see the bottom again. Worry, worry, why did he hook his fingers when he was travelling to a woman to earn money, while she was on the other side with a slim chance of survival?

Her eyes were filled with grief and she sighed. Originally, she thought they could eat these rice for half a month, but never did she expect that Hou Manning was actually a rice bucket! That amount of food, one person could beat them all by ten!

Hou Jiangning finished his training and went to the kitchen to drink some water. When he saw Xiao Qi lying by the rice vat, looking like she was about to cry, his eyes flashed and he paused for a moment before saying, "Let's go up the mountain."

Xiao Qi was so frightened that she almost jumped up, she rarely spoke, as if it wasn't necessary, she absolutely didn't open her mouth, this wasn't only his sudden voice that scared her, it was also his voice that frightened her.

"What?" She didn't understand.

"Up the mountain." Impatience had already appeared within Hou Manning's eyes.

"Oh, oh." She immediately got up, and because she was in a hurry, her vision blurred, and she fell to the side. The next moment, she fell into a warm embrace. The faint scent of straw and her firm muscles …

Obviously, she …
