Offering Salted Fish To Master - chapter 158
He put himself there as bait to make the beauty smile
Liao Tingyan: “…I feel that in your heart you must have said I am naive.”
Sima Jiao took a sip of his wine, glanced at her with a smile, and said, “No–“
“They are here!”
The four of them found them, and before they started to say the necessary words, such as “Today you are going to be killed by our swords”, 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, “How was it?”
Sima Jiao put down his hip flask and patted her palms flatly, “Not bad.”
Liao Tingyan sat back next to him, “I have no sense of accomplishment and am unhappy.”
Sima Jiao: “It may be because you didn’t kill them.”
Liao Tingyan: “I caught them all. Don’t you want to ask them about the mastermind behind it?”
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: “I still need to ask about such a simple matter?”
Liao Tingyan: “Do you know who it’s?”
Sima Jiao: “Nanyan Hou.”
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, “Go back and deal with Nanyan Hou.”
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: “Yes, demon lord!”
Then the four of them turned and left without hesitation.
Liao Tingyan turned around and saw Sima Jiao looking at her, “What happened?”
Sima Jiao smiled, raised his head and took another sip of wine, before saying, “You used to talk and do things that made me feel very familiar, but just now you look like…I don’t seem to have seen it.”
He laughed and put his warm palms on the side of Liao Tingyan’s neck, “It seems a little strange.”
Liao Tingyan suddenly lost her smile. She turned her face away, avoided Sima Jiao’s hand, and looked at the pot of wine he had put down, “You have been away from me for seventeen years. I will change.”
He changed too. He didn’t like to drink before.
Sima Jiao pulled her back, pressed her head against his chest, and said, “Why are you angry? Because It seems strange?”
“As long as you stay by my side, all the current strangeness will become familiar in the future.” He lowered his head. His lips pressed against Liao Tingyan’s ear. His posture was very affectionate, and he continued in a low voice, “And 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. Won’t you be tired?”
Liao Tingyan: “…”
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 didn’t 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 didn’t 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 didn’t 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 didn’t 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, “Okay, don’t be angry. Let’s go back first.”
When he walked to the shore, water splashed behind him. Liao Tingyan appeared behind him, splashing water at him with a straight face, “You got the wrong fish!”
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 didn’t 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, “You didn’t admit your mistake this time.”
The stiff fish in his hand turned over and turned toward him, “Bah—”
Sima Jiao laughed and took her back.
In fact, he remembered a lot of things, but ones without her, were not pleasant.
“If you are not what you are now.”
“If you are not ‘Liao Tingyan’.”
“I will like you too.”
“Do you believe it or not?”
The fish vomited a bubble: “…On what basis?”
Sima Jiao: “Without reason.”
Liao Tingyan: “Deliberately mystifying (to make sth more complicated gù nòng xuán xū).”
Sima Jiao: “Feigning Civility (I vouch for the snake xū yǔ wēi yí).”
Liao Tingyan: “…” What is the idiom that starts with the word snake? I vouch for the snake? However, its pronunciation is the same as “shift,” right?
Sima Jiao: “Hahahahaha!”
Liao Tingyan’s face turned dark. Sh*t, why did I suddenly play idiom rapid fire with him?
