Chapter 336 The dragon is very happy!
Everyone evacuated quickly and returned to Lu Renjia's forest courtyard half an hour later.
Although Lu Renjia's yard is called the Forest Yard, it is actually very spacious, with more than ten rooms in total, so it is no problem for everyone to have one room.
However, Lu Renjia didn’t know whether to arrange one room or two for Jiang Lili and Xin Che, so he simply arranged two rooms for them in the side courtyard and let them decide for themselves.
After everyone washed up and returned to their rooms, Jiang Lili was worried about Xin Che not having eaten anything. She was thinking about how to find an excuse to send Xin Che food when there was a knock on her door.
Xin Che's voice rang out from outside, sounding a little embarrassed: "Li Li, do you have any snacks?"
Jiang Lili was startled. She stood up and opened the door. Outside the door, Xin Che looked as if he had already showered and changed his clothes. His face was spotless under the light in the corridor. He had changed into close-fitting pajamas, which exuded a light and refreshing soapberry scent. His ultramarine robe was loosely draped over his broad shoulders.
Xin Che looked at her with clear eyes, like a big puppy waiting to be fed, and actually looked a bit pitiful.
Jiang Lili suddenly remembered that the owner would not give food to the dog unless the dog made the owner angry.
She stared at Xin Che and warned herself in her heart not to be fooled by this bastard's appearance.
It was not a good idea to disturb Xiaopang at this time, as she remembered that she had stockpiled some instant noodles in her personal favorites.
Jiang Lili had a stern face and said to Xin Che unhappily, "Go wait next door first. I'll get you something to eat."
The girl was wearing a simple light moon-colored dress. Her face was fair and her almond-shaped eyes were affectionate, but her expression was fierce.
Xin Che just felt like a proud little white cat was baring its fangs and claws at him, and his heart couldn't help but soften.
"Ok, I will wait for you."
Xin Che nodded meekly, gathered his shawl around him, and then suddenly sneezed, speaking with a nasal tone: "Maybe I caught a cold from wearing wet clothes during the day."
Jiang Lili thought about how she had splashed water on him and pursed her lips. Is Xin Che so weak? He caught a cold just because of a splash of water?
As if seeing through Jiang Lili's thoughts, Xin Che added: "I'm having trouble adapting to the Moon Tribe."
"Don't bring me food. I'm afraid I'll get sick from you."
After Xin Che finished speaking, he went into his room.
Jiang Lili felt torn and felt that this man was really bad. He seemed gentle and generous in giving her the right to choose, but in fact he had a strong hold on her conscience.
She immediately regretted saying that she would bring him food later.
Going to his room would just be sending yourself into the fox's den.
Before washing up, Jiang Lili stored some hot water in a thermos in the woodshed.
Jiang Lili took out a porcelain bowl and instant noodles from her personal favorites and made instant noodles with mushroom and chicken flavor for Xin Che.
She came to Xin Che's door with instant noodles, and before she knocked, the door was opened from inside.
Xin Che looked at the fragrant instant noodles in Jiang Lili's hand and curled his lips, then stepped aside: "It's cold outside, come in quickly."
Jiang Lili walked into the room with her head held high and put the bowl on the table.
She recalled that when she was helping the victims of the locust plague in Lingnan, Xin Che had seen her carry instant noodles, but she had seen what instant noodles looked like after they were soaked, so she started to deceive people: "This is the chicken noodle soup I cooked for you personally after overcoming all difficulties. Come and try it!"
Xin Che sat down opposite Jiang Lili and picked up his fork: "Thank you for your hard work. Actually, just give me some snacks."
Although he said so, Xin Che couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth that were raised at all.
"I heard that chicken soup can drive away the cold, so I asked Xiaopang to pick out the best grain-fed chicken for me. Smell this golden soup, isn't it fragrant?"
"good smell."
Xin Che picked up a piece of chicken the size of a fingernail with a fork and raised an eyebrow in confusion: "It looks like this chicken was processed very delicately, it seems to have only suffered minor skin injuries?"
Jiang Lili choked:...What nonsense are you talking about!
She originally thought that Xin Che would tease her, but she didn't expect that he would just eat noodles quietly.
Jiang Lili held her chin up and watched Xin Che eat. It really felt like she was feeding a large dog.
Her eyelids gradually drooped and Jiang Lili fell asleep on the table.
Seeing that she had fallen asleep with her little face buried in her arms, Xin Che stood up, took off his outer robe and put it on her, then collected the dishes and went to wash up.
After returning to the room, Xin Che looked at Jiang Lili who was sleeping soundly and knew that the little girl must be exhausted from all the hard work today.
He picked the person up horizontally and was about to put him down, but the person in his arms held his waist tightly and refused to let go.
This position was uncomfortable to maintain, so Xin Che had to hug her and get on the bed together.
After spreading out the bedding with great difficulty, Xin Che was finally able to lean against the head of the bed and take a rest.
He stroked Jiang Lili's soft black hair with his palm, as if he was stroking the fur of a kitten.
Xin Che lowered his eyes and looked at the little head in his arms. He couldn't help but burst out with the words that were suppressed in his chest at this moment, but he carefully and restrainedly turned them into one sentence: "Li Li, are you happy with me?"
The answer he got was the even breathing of Jiang Lili who was sleeping soundly.
Xin Che didn't expect her response.
He only hated himself for being so timid and cautious. He could deal with thousands of troops but could not do anything to her.
However, at this moment, the little man in his arms uttered a syllable: "Yue..."
Xin Che's breath caught in his throat. He couldn't believe his ears. He raised his eyebrows in surprise and looked at the person in his arms.
Jiang Lili closed her eyelashes tightly, and muttered unconsciously: "Beauty, I am very pleased!"
After saying that, the little paw on Xin Che's waist touched his abdominal muscles very generously.
Xin Che: ...
Why does this girl dream about building an empire and conquering the world?
That's it.
Xin Che had no choice but to tuck in the quilt for Jiang Lili, and gently poked her sleeping face with his slender fingers, with a hint of revenge.
After a moment, he placed a gentle kiss on the top of her head: "Even if you want the stars in the sky, I will pick them all for you."

The next morning, after Jiang Lili had breakfast, she found that Jida had gathered many Moon Tribe members in the open space in the center of the tribe. She asked in confusion, "Where are you going?"
"Someone from another group of Moon Tribe members who left last night heard a noise coming from the direction of the temple."
Jida's tone was unclear: "They guessed that Xiaolu blew up the temple and angered the gods. So they asked us to take Xiaolu there to offer sacrifices and ask for forgiveness from the gods."
"If we don't bring people with us, they will come and do it themselves."
Jiang Lili's eyes lit up. Wasn't someone handing her a pillow because she was sleepy?
She was still thinking about how to spread the news of Xiaolu's discovery of the coal mine to the group of runaway Moon Tribe members.
Jida was in a dilemma and could only ask Jiang Lili for help: "Goddess, do you have any solution? Xiaolu has done a favor to our Moon Clan after all, and her merits and demerits offset each other. She should not be harmed."
Those Moon Tribe members who had left were still able to listen to Chief Jia's words, but Jia was still recuperating from her injuries and they were afraid that something might go wrong.
