Chapter 134 Lotus Tower 8
"What's going on? Is the rice delicious today?"
Lin Jiu looked at Li Xiangyi, who was eating rice with his head down, with confusion on his face.
Li Xiangxian seemed to see through everything, with a meaningful smile on his face, but he didn't say anything.
Lin Jiu felt very unhappy, thinking to himself: "Everyone is trying to be mysterious here, what is the meaning? It's really incomprehensible!"
At this moment, Li Xiangyi suddenly stood up, said "I'm done eating", and then quickly left his seat. During the whole process, he never dared to look up at Lin Jiu. His movements were extremely agile, and he even used light skills.
Lin Jiu could only watch him walk away. She lowered her head to look at Li Xiangyi's bowl and found that the amount of rice in the bowl had not decreased much, only the top layer had changed slightly, but it was still full.
Lin Jiu couldn't help but frown and complained, "Is this what you call finishing eating?"
Recalling that Li Xiangyi had been avoiding looking at her since morning, she suddenly felt an inexplicable irritation in her heart.
Lin Jiu narrowed his fox eyes, which had become narrow due to his growth, and a shrewd light flashed in his eyes. Suddenly... he jumped up and shouted loudly: "I won't eat anymore. You little brat actually doesn't want to look at me. I don't care! I don't want to look at you either, humph!"
Before she finished her words, Lin Jiu ran away angrily, leaving Li Xiangxian looking at the direction she left in astonishment.
He looked at the table of almost untouched food with a wry smile.
Li Xiangyi had no idea that he had angered Lin Jiu, and was still worrying about how to face Lin Jiu. With mixed feelings, he made a decision to leave for a while to calm down.
After making the decision, Li Xiangyi quickly realized that his behavior today was inappropriate, and subconsciously walked to the room to find Lin Jiu. The room was of course Li Xiangyi's room, but they had been sleeping in the same room for the past ten years. He didn't think much of it before, but now, Li Xiangyi touched his nose and felt a little uncomfortable.
Unexpectedly, when I walked to the door, I saw two particularly eye-catching signs. One read "In retreat, do not disturb", and the other read "Li Xiangyi and dogs are not allowed to enter!!" The key points are in bold.
Li Xiangyi smiled helplessly, thinking that Xiaobai has become more lively recently.
He stood quietly in front of the closed door, staring at it intently. Time seemed to freeze at this moment. However, he never had the courage to knock on the door, for fear of disturbing Lin Jiu inside.
When he lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes concealed the complex emotions in his eyes.
At this moment, he turned his head and his eyes fell on Li Xiangxian, who had come to his side at some point, and said softly, "Brother, I want to go down the mountain and explore the outside world. After I leave, remember to say goodbye to Xiaobai for me."
"Okay, I will tell Xiaojiu about this. Xiangyi, just do what you want!" Li Xiangxian was slightly stunned when he heard this, but he quickly came to his senses and looked deeply at Li Xiangyi in front of him.
"Yeah," Li Xiangyi nodded, then cast his gaze toward the closed door again, as if he could see Lin Jiu inside through it. Then, without hesitation, he turned around, took long strides, and left without looking back.
As Li Xiangyi left, the door creaked open quickly. Lin Jiu stood at the door, staring blankly at Li Xiangyi's back as he walked further and further away until he disappeared, his face filled with disbelief.
"Gone? Just like that?!" Lin Jiu's voice was filled with endless grievance and confusion, tears welling up in his eyes.
In fact, she had been hiding in the room, listening clearly to everything outside the door. She just hoped that Li Xiangyi could coax her like before, even if it was just a word of comfort.
Unexpectedly, Li Xiangyi not only did not comfort her, but even left without saying a word. This sudden change made Lin Jiu, who had been spoiled by Li Xiangyi for a full ten years, feel very lost and sad.
Her eyes were slightly red, and tears seemed to burst out, but she forced herself to hold them back. Lin Jiu said stubbornly, "Just go, who cares about you! I don't want to talk to you anymore, Li Xiangyi!"
After saying that, she turned her head, without even looking at Li Xiangxian, turned around and walked into the room, slamming the door shut.
Back in her room, Lin Jiu stamped her feet in anger, secretly vowing to herself that she would cultivate well and transform into a human form as soon as possible. Once she did, she would definitely teach Li Xiangyi a lesson.
Thinking of this, Lin Jiu's anger subsided a little, and he began to practice seriously.
Meanwhile, Li Xiangxian, who was outside the door, couldn't help but burst out laughing. He shook his head, thinking that these two were quite funny. However, he also knew that his younger brother would probably suffer in the future.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little gloating. After all, he hadn't seen Li Xiangyi look frustrated for a long time.
