He put himself there as bait to make the beauty smile
Liao Tingyan: ââŠI feel that in your heart you must have said I am naive.â
Sima Jiao took a sip of his wine, glanced at her with a smile, and said, âNoââ
âThey are here!â
The four of them found them, and before they started to say the necessary words, such as âToday you are going to be killed by our swordsâ, they had a pain in their brains and fell to the ground.
Liao Tingyan retracted her hand, snapped her fingers, glanced sideways at Sima Jiao, and asked with restraint, âHow was it?â
Sima Jiao put down his hip flask and patted her palms flatly, âNot bad.â
Liao Tingyan sat back next to him, âI have no sense of accomplishment and am unhappy.â
Sima Jiao: âIt may be because you didnât kill them.â
Liao Tingyan: âI caught them all. Donât you want to ask them about the mastermind behind it?â
Generally, plots of TV dramas happened in that way. Later, she would be able to demonstrate the interrogation skills of the immortal world. Although it was not like the truth spell Sima Jiao had, it was no problem using a similar spell on ordinary people.
Sima Jiao: âI still need to ask about such a simple matter?â
Liao Tingyan: âDo you know who itâs?â
Sima Jiao: âNanyan Hou.â
Nanyan Hou? Was this man bullying the emperor? Very good, he offended the demon lord of the Demon Realm.
Liao Tingyan waved her hand and asked the four people to open their eyes and stand up. She looked at the four people with a cold expression. Her pupils moved slightly, and her tone was a little ethereal and cold, âGo back and deal with Nanyan Hou.â
The four woke up. However, when they looked at Liao Tingyan at this time, their eyes were full of awe. They knelt down without hesitation: âYes, demon lord!â
Then the four of them turned and left without hesitation.
Liao Tingyan turned around and saw Sima Jiao looking at her, âWhat happened?â
Sima Jiao smiled, raised his head and took another sip of wine, before saying, âYou used to talk and do things that made me feel very familiar, but just now you look likeâŠI donât seem to have seen it.â
He laughed and put his warm palms on the side of Liao Tingyanâs neck, âIt seems a little strange.â
Liao Tingyan suddenly lost her smile. She turned her face away, avoided Sima Jiaoâs hand, and looked at the pot of wine he had put down, âYou have been away from me for seventeen years. I will change.â
He changed too. He didnât like to drink before.
Sima Jiao pulled her back, pressed her head against his chest, and said, âWhy are you angry? Because It seems strange?â
âAs long as you stay by my side, all the current strangeness will become familiar in the future.â He lowered his head. His lips pressed against Liao Tingyanâs ear. His posture was very affectionate, and he continued in a low voice, âAnd you have been looking for a sense of familiarity in me, and want me to find a sense of familiarity in you. So you repeated similar scenes in the past. Wonât you be tired?â
Liao Tingyan: ââŠâ
Her fingers felt as if they were scalded, as she felt a little trembling and painful. She did not expect that he would pierce her secret thoughts.
Sima Jiao was always like this. He always didnât care about anything and paid no attention, but in fact he understood everything and knew everything.
This was the case before, and it was also the case now.
Seventeen years was not a short time, at least not for her. She had reunited with him after a long absence. It was like seeing him for the first time. She was not good at talking about love, and only did what she was most familiar with. Whether it was a mountain stream or an otter, she remembered it during this long period of time. He didnât remember it, so she tried to make him remember it.
Liao Tingyan stood up in silence and walked into the stream. She transformed herself into an ordinary fish and got into the group of small fish. She didnât want to talk to Sima Jiao now.
Sima Jiao stretched out his long hair and walked into the water. He bent over to look at the little fish. He reached out to catch the fish. The little fish disappeared when he stretched out his fingers. Sima Jiao didnât care and continued to catch fish there, as if he must catch the Liao Tingyan who was hiding from him.
He turned around in the mountain stream, held a handful of water, folded his palms and walked on the shore, while smiling, âOkay, donât be angry. Letâs go back first.â
When he walked to the shore, water splashed behind him. Liao Tingyan appeared behind him, splashing water at him with a straight face, âYou got the wrong fish!â
Sima Jiao turned his head as expected and let go of his hand. There was only a handful of water in his palm, no fish. He spread his legs and sat on the rock on the shore, smiling at her.
He did it on purpose. He was deceiving her.
Liao Tingyan looked at him for a moment, then went back in the water and turned into a fish again. This time, she didnât want to care about this guy.
Sima Jiao walked back into the water and stretched out his hand to catch fish in the water. Those little fish who wandered around as if dead, floated rigidly in the water, motionless except one. Sima Jiao suppressed the smile, held the fish up with both hands, and deliberately asked, âYou didnât admit your mistake this time.â
The stiff fish in his hand turned over and turned toward him, âBahââ
Sima Jiao laughed and took her back.
In fact, he remembered a lot of things, but ones without her, were not pleasant.
âIf you are not what you are now.â
âIf you are not âLiao Tingyanâ.â
âI will like you too.â
âDo you believe it or not?â
The fish vomited a bubble: ââŠOn what basis?â
Sima Jiao: âWithout reason.â
Liao Tingyan: âDeliberately mystifying (to make sth more complicated gĂč nĂČng xuĂĄn xĆ«).â
Sima Jiao: âFeigning Civility (I vouch for the snake xĆ« yÇ wÄi yĂ).â
Liao Tingyan: ââŠâ What is the idiom that starts with the word snake? I vouch for the snake? However, its pronunciation is the same as âshift,â right?
Sima Jiao: âHahahahaha!â
Liao Tingyanâs face turned dark. Sh*t, why did I suddenly play idiom rapid fire with him?
