Chapter 23: Anger and Humble Love
Lei Wen was immersed in the joy of losing and regaining it, hugging Gu Xiaoli tightly, and his Xiaoli did not leave him behind.
However, in the joy, Lei Wen suddenly smelled a trace of disharmoniousness.
The smell was very light, mixed with Gu Xiaoli's sweet body fragrance, but he still noticed it.
It was the smell of a jackal, and Lei Wen's heart suddenly became cold.
Gu Xiaoli found that Lei Wen's movements were suddenly stiff when he held him, and suddenly felt guilty.
She patted Raven on the back and said, "Let's go back."
Lei Wen said nothing, let go of her arms that were holding her, but only pulled her wrist tightly and walked back silently.
Lei Wen was very strong, and it made Gu Xiaoli's wrist feel a little painful. Gu Xiaoli knew that Lei Wen was angry.
She was pulled away by Lei Wen, thinking in her mind that she still had to live under someone else's roof for a while, and she and Lei Wen were living together. In many aspects of life, she still needed to rely on him, so it would be better to have a good relationship with him.
"Lei Wen, I'm sorry." Gu Xiaoli said nervously.
Hearing Xiaoli's tight and crisp voice, Lei Wen stopped, let go of her hand, turned around and looked down at Gu Xiaoli.
Lei Wen was two heads taller than Gu Xiaoli, looking at her with a low voice expression, allowing Gu Xiaoli to feel the powerful sense of oppression that this sunny boy had never brought before.
"I, I..." Gu Xiaoli stumbled for a while, not knowing where to start, but Lei Wen was patiently waiting for her explanation.
Gu Xiaoli took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and said, "I saw a little jackal in the grass being injured. I don't want you to hurt it, it's just a child."
Seeing that Lei Wen was still silent, Gu Xiaoli continued to explain: "It is really small, and there is no two taels of meat on it, not enough for you to have a meal, so I..."
"I believe in you." Lei Wen interrupted Gu Xiaoli.
He looked at Gu Xiaoli with golden eyes. He actually didn't want Gu Xiaoli to stay in the tribe willingly. Now he would be very content as long as Xiaoli can be by his side.
Xiaoli is willing to defend himself, and his heart has loosened. Now he is willing to believe what Xiaoli says unconditionally.
"I believe you will definitely not leave me alone, right?" Lei Wen stared at Gu Xiaoli, and the end of his words actually had some pleading.
Lei Wen's golden vertical pupils were as clear as the stream just now, looking at him was both sad and sincere.
Gu Xiaoli felt very uncomfortable. She had decided to return to modern times no matter what happened, and would not be easily shaken by some small love.
But Lei Wen's almost humble tolerance still made her feel guilty.
Her eyes dodged a little, and she didn't dare to look directly at Lei Wen, but Lei Wen stared at her eyes stubbornly, waiting for an answer deceivingly.
"Well, I won't leave." Gu Xiaoli forced himself to look at him and lied in a difficult tone.
She thought Lei Wen would be extremely disappointed with her reaction, but Lei Wen seemed to have not seen her dodge and panic, and smiled like a child to answer: "Okay, Xiaoli."
Raven pulled up his red wrist and held it in his hand pity: "I'm sorry, I just grabbed you."
Gu Xiaoli felt a little embarrassed and wanted to pull her wrist back: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't hurt."
Lei Wen did not let go, but leaned down gently and kissed Gu Xiaoli at his wrist.
Gu Xiaoli was at a loss for his sudden intimate behavior and could only stay in place.
Lei Wen did not make any further moves, but turned sideways, pointed to the gradually steep mountain road ahead, and signaled Gu Xiaoli to sit on his shoulder.
Gu Xiaoli was not polite either. With her own strength, she could not climb such a steep mountain. With Lei Wen's arms lifting, she sat on his shoulder neatly.
