Chapter 1366: Chapter 1188 Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

Zhao Datu is inside!

Long Aixi, concerned, quickly covered Xia Dabao’s mouth, signaling her not to move forward yet.

Though Xia Dabao was also a martial artist, her night vision was not as good as Long Aixi’s, who had specifically trained for it.

This... was another close encounter, wasn’t it?

But now was a special moment, and Long Aixi probably wasn’t thinking about that, so Xia Dabao didn’t think about it either.

Zhao Datu merely turned over in his bed and soon fell back into a deep sleep, while Long Aixi quietly approached and pressed another one of his acupoints. In the dark, Zhao Datu’s snoring stopped; this time, he was thoroughly out.

Xia Dabao hurriedly searched for Axiang’s belongings.

Axiang hadn’t taken anything with her when she left, and since Zhao Datu was lazy, he didn’t bother to throw away Axiang’s things even though he disliked them, so Xia Dabao took every item that belonged to a woman.

She gathered a whole big box of items.

After making sure everything was collected, Long Aixi released Zhao Datu’s acupoints, and Xia Dabao left with the items.

Zhao Datu turned over again, smacking his lips twice, and his snoring resumed.

After searching Zhao Datu’s house, they went to the Widow Chen’s house.

However, there was a small accident while jumping over Widow Chen’s wall.

It was bad enough that the Widow’s wall was taller than others’, but now for some reason, she had put many thorns at the base of the wall, which hurt Xia Dabao terribly.

If she weren’t tolerant, she would have cried out in pain.

She was about to warn Long Aixi, who was following her, but didn’t manage in time, and when Long Aixi jumped, he too felt the pain and grimaced, but didn’t cry out.

Xia Dabao struggled not to laugh out loud at the pain, while Long Aixi frowned and quietly asked her, "You’ve been pricked too, haven’t you? Does it hurt?"

"It hurts," Xia Dabao wanted to express her agony but also wanted to laugh.

Long Aixi, enduring the pain, pulled out the thorns, kicked away the ones in front of Xia Dabao, and without a word, picked her up.

"..." Suddenly, Xia Dabao couldn’t laugh anymore.

Long Aixi placed her on a bench next to the courtyard and then commenced to remove the thorns from her feet, with Xia Dabao unable to speak throughout the whole process.

Wasn’t this gesture a bit too intimate?

Almost done, she finally reacted, "Maybe... I should do it myself."

"It’s done," Long Aixi said, then asked Xia Dabao softly, "Do you know which room is Axiang’s? I’ll go get her things."

Xia Dabao pointed at one of the rooms, "It should be the third one. No, let me do it. How can I let a boy get a girl’s belongings?"

Long Aixi thought for a moment and then said, "Okay, be careful then."

...

"Axiang, open the door!"

Early in the morning, Axiang heard the knocking on the door; it was Xia Dabao’s voice. She quickly got up.

But when she opened the door, she saw the fool, Shaogen, sleeping on the ground.

These past few days, she had been sleeping in the room and he had been sleeping outside in the hall. Although Axiang had already tidied up another room, Shaogen didn’t want to go and insisted on staying there to guard Axiang, claiming he was afraid that mice would scare her at night.

Of course, he was more afraid that Auntie Zhao and Widow Chen would come and take Axiang away.

But he was extremely restless in his sleep, and the two long and narrow benches were anything but stable. After falling off during the night, he simply wrapped himself in a blanket and slept on the ground.
