    ?

    Xiao Shi stared at the phone, reckoning that Zhou Shaoting would spend only a few days here, at most a week or two. In such a short period of time, the only people she had the obligation to notify were her parents.  .

    Her fingers were hanging on the phone, and she was about to dial the home number when she suddenly raised her eyes and looked at Zhou Shaoting with a hint of slyness, "Aren't you afraid that I'll call the police?"

    The man looked calm, and slightly spread his palms, "Please go ahead."

    Really not humorous.  Xiao Shi curled her lips and pressed a string of numbers.

    The signal in the mountains is not good. She tried to dial several times but couldn't get through. Finally, she managed to get through when she walked to the terrace.

    While making arrangements in her mind, she stammered and told her mother that she forgot to bring her mobile phone on a business trip. This call was made with a colleague's mobile phone. It is inconvenient to contact them these days, so let them not worry

    At this time, she saw Zhou Shaoting pointing to the mobile phone in her hand, and immediately added knowingly: If there is something urgent, please call this number.

    The voice was intermittent, and I couldn't hear it very clearly, so I could only pick up the important ones and give a rough idea.

    On the other side of the phone, my mother kept complaining, "I'm so old, and I can't change the problem of being forgetful" From this tone, I should believe it.

    Xiaoshi hung up the phone, breathed a sigh of relief, and finally completed this arduous task, and the hairs on both arms stood on end.

    Zhou Shaoting spread out his palm, and she obediently returned the phone to him.

    The man put away his mobile phone and smiled knowingly, expressing his satisfaction with her well-behaved cooperation.

    After all, Yan Xiaoshi went out for a walk with Mr. Control Freak.

    She became more and more aware of the situation she was in¡ªcompletely passive.  Therefore, it is better to cooperate with each other to have a good life.  Is she already suffering from Stockholm Syndrome?

    But to be honest, she didn't want to be bored in that villa all the time. Although it was elegant and warm enough, it was not as interesting as the wildness in the mountains.

    Moreover, she finally left the busy city, and she didn't want to let down this gift of nature easily.  Of course, it also lived up to someone's wishes by the way.

    All the way along the way, every eye is full of beautiful scenery.  The mountains are clear and green, with different colors, as if they have been smudged and have distinct layers.  The peak is surrounded by clouds and fog, and the wind and bamboo dance in the mountains, mixed with scattered yellow leaves, adding a touch of beauty to the mountains and forests.

    They followed the sound of gurgling water, and there were occasional stone steps on the road, which were probably laid during the preparation of the scenic spot.  As the sound of the water approached, a small waterfall fell from the edge of the cliff. The misty mist transformed the soft light of the setting sun into a rainbow.

    The two continued to climb to the top of the mountain along the trampled path, Zhou Shaoting opened the way ahead, and Yan Xiaoshi followed closely behind.  After walking for a long time, I finally reached a relatively flat commanding height.  Overlooking the mountains and valleys from here, the scattered houses in the valley shrink into small dots, which look very quiet and serene in the autumn sunset.

    At this moment, all the hustle and bustle of the mundane dissipated, only the clear water and the sky were left, and the autumn was pleasant.

    It was already evening when I returned to my residence. Xiaoshi usually doesn't like to exercise. Today, after walking so much all of a sudden, her legs are sore and her feet are limp. However, she is still in good spirits.

    As soon as she entered the small courtyard, she found an extra bamboo basket under the porch of the villa.  When I walked over, I saw that there was a basket full of ingredients!

    The fresh vegetables are still dripping with dew, and a strip of streaky bacon is attractive in color.  Xiao Shi asked the master: "Didn't you say that there is no one else, just the two of us?"

    "That's right. Do you like it?" Zhou Shaoting deliberately teased her with a smile on his lips.

    Xiao Shi pointed at the basket, "Then what's going on?"

    Zhou Shaoting squatted down, picked the vegetables and meat in the basket casually twice, with a satisfied look in his eyes, "Well, it's really good."

    He stood up, clapped his hands, opened the door and said, "There is a village at the foot of the mountain, seven or eight kilometers away. Before I went up the mountain, I contacted a fellow villager and asked them to deliver some food the next day. Otherwise, what would we eat?  , you still point me to go hunting?"

    "It's really a waste of money." Xiao Shi whispered.

    Zhou Shaoting glanced at her, leaned against the door frame and said, "This is legitimate consumption for me, and it's too late for the fellow to be happy. Originally, his eldest son had to carry the burden to go to the town to do business every day, and the journey back and forth was even longer, so it's better to be me."  The business is a good deal."

    Xiaoshi curled her lips, "Of course, who can do business better than you?"

    Zhou Shaoting squeezed her small chin, glanced at the basket on the ground, and ordered: "Bring it in for me."

    ? No mistake, right Xiao Shi laboriously carried the heavy basket into the kitchen, picked out the contents and piled them on the operating table.

    &nbspIt was cold, Xiao Shi pulled a pillow and hugged her in her arms, curling herself up.

    The mountain wind passes through the bamboo forest outside the house, blows the branches and vines, and sometimes knocks on the window lattice.  This kind of sound may sound natural and peaceful during the day, but at this moment, it is dark outside and the villa is empty, and the sudden abnormal movement will only make people feel very strange.

    Xiaoshi's goosebumps began to ooze out layer by layer, and she felt more and more that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time.  She put on her slippers and wanted to go upstairs, but suddenly realized that there were only Zhou Shaoting and the bedroom upstairs, and this combination was even more weird

    Just as he was hesitating, he heard footsteps coming downstairs.

    Zhou Shaoting handed her a shawl, sat down beside her, and naturally touched her shoulders, "What are you looking at?"

    Xiaoshi unconsciously moved to the side, leaving half a sofa cushion between him and the man.  Although she also felt that these small details were meaningless, it seemed that this had become a habit when she faced him.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
