The Protagonist Just Wants to Fall in Love [MTL]

Chapter 225 Dirty

After two days of sleepless journey, they arrived at the address mentioned in Bian Miao's letter. It was deep in the mountains and old forests, shrouded in the darkness of night, with swaying shadows of trees. A fire was lit under the tree, and Ling Yugeng sat cross-legged beside the tree.

　　The dry branches and leaves made a rustling sound when stepped on.

　　"Here is another piece of cake." Chu Shun took out a piece of cake from his bag and handed it to Ling Yugeng.

　　Ling Yugeng: "I'm not hungry, eat it."

　　Chu Shun sat down beside him and said, "It's a pity that we don't have time to go hunting in the mountains, otherwise Master wouldn't be left with nothing to eat."

　　Ling Yugeng tilted his head to glance at him. Chu Shun lowered his head, his eyebrows and eyes were also drooping meekly. The profile of his face was handsome, and one could already glimpse his handsome appearance in the future. He was poking the fire with a wooden stick in one hand, and in the other hand he was holding a dry food biscuit, nibbling it in small bites with his head down.

　　Such filial piety is really touching.

　　"I'm fasting, I'm not hungry, you can eat more."

　　Chu Shun hadn't closed his eyes for the past two days and his eyes were red. Ling Yugeng asked him to wait for a while and take a nap, and Chu Shun agreed.

　　Ling Yugeng took out another storage bag, looked at it for a while, and handed it to Chu Shun. "I don't know what will happen next, but these are all life-saving items. Take them with you."

　　Chu Shun was stunned for a moment, "This is what the elder gave to Master..."

　　"I don't need these." He put the things in Chu Shun's hands.

　　Chu Shun's gaze lingered on the storage bag for a moment.

　　He truly has the righteous spirit of selflessness. I wonder what his expression would be like if people knew of his demon bloodline.

　　Ling Yugeng was leaning against a tree. Chu Shun, who was standing beside him, was holding some dry food in his hands. His chewing became slower and he became drowsy. His head moved down a little bit, but he couldn't help but fall down. One hand supported his face.

　　Feeling the soft and delicate touch in his palm, Ling Yugeng rubbed it twice with his fingertips. He was really tired in the past two days and seemed to have lost some weight. Chu Shun was also a little afraid of heights. In order not to delay time, he didn't say anything along the way, as if he was used to enduring it.

　　He let the boy lean on his shoulder so that he could have a good sleep.

　　A gust of wind blew, causing a rustling sound in the bushes. He glanced over there, then looked away, closed his eyes, and leaned against the tree.

　　The two of them sat in this position for two hours. The moonlight gradually dimmed and the sky became gray. Chu Shun's head, which was leaning on Ling Yugeng's shoulder, slid down and he woke up.

　　Ling Yugeng next to him also opened his eyes.

　　Chu Shun stood up and said, "I apologize for the offence..."

　　"Chu Shun."

　　"yes."

　　"Am I not treating you well?" Ling Yugeng asked.

　　Chu Shun was stunned.

　　"No need to apologize for something like this."

　　Chu Shun: "...Disciple understands."
