Chapter 6: Sweetie, where is your integrity?

  Xia Tian heard this and became proud again, not feeling embarrassed about being hit and losing face. He smiled and said: "I'm fine! It was just a small fight, from now on I'll take care of you, absolutely won't let anyone hurt a single hair on your head!"

  Xia Xiaoliang: "......"

  Xia Mingchuan: "......"

  Heavens, earth, how can her face be so thick?! Where is your integrity?! Xia Xiaoliang muttered in her heart. Can't continue talking about this, otherwise she would definitely collapse, and abruptly changed the subject.

  "Xia Mingchuan brother, are you okay? You didn't get hurt, did you?" Xia Xiaoliang only then turned her head to ask the pale-faced Xia Mingchuan.

  Xia Mingjiang felt relieved when he saw her wake up, but his heart was filled with a thousand emotions that couldn't be expressed. His face calm, he said, "It's nothing."

  Xia Xiaoliang saw that although Xia Mingchuan was in low spirits, he seemed to be all right from head to toe, so she said again: "I'm hungry..."

  This is Xia Xiaoliang's third time saying she's hungry today, especially now that she's surrounded by Xia Tian and Xia Mingchuan, she has an urge to cover her face.

  Xia Tian pulled down Xia Xiao Liang's hands covering her face and said, "Xia Ming Chuan gege has already gone to help you get the roasted fish, don't cover your face anymore, if you're hungry then just be hungry, what's there to be shy about!"

  You think you're me? That's a thick skin! Xia XiaoLiang continued to mock.

  "Tian Tian, are you really okay? I saw that Chen's hand was quite heavy." Xia Xiao Liang thought it would be better to ask Xia Tian, who was a year younger than her and had also "saved" her. If she didn't care, then she wouldn't be the "kind" person she was.

  Xia Tian revealed a sweet smile and said: "I really don't mind!"

  "Roasted fish is here! Xia Tian also eats some?" Xiaming Chuan came from outside the cave to in front of the stone bed, holding up the roasted fish and asking.

  Xia Tian still had something on her mind, so she thought of leaving and said to Xia Mingchuan: "Brother Xia Mingchuan, I'm going back. Take good care of Sister Xia Xiaoleng."

  Xia Tian ran out with the bell on his head, leaving Xia Xiao Liang and Xia Ming Chuan staring at each other.

  Looking at the roasted fish in Xia Mingchuan's hand, Xia Xiaoleng's eyes were fixed. But before she could say she was hungry, Xia Mingchuan smiled and asked: "Have you turned over the twelve meridians?"

  "Ah?" Xia Xiao Liang lowered her head, her eyes darting around in confusion. She poked her finger, how could she have forgotten about this? To think that she had secretly asked Xia Tian to bring roasted fish!

  Xia Mingchuan stretched out his hand to hold her chin, Xia Xiao Liang raised her head and saw Xia Mingchuan's sly smile, instantly puffed up her face.

  "It's so hard to remember, how can I possibly memorize it!" Xia Xiao Liang pouted and sulked with a look of discontent. It was really unimaginable that at the age of twenty-something, she still threw tantrums like a child.

  "It's not like you've never made a mistake before, but did I ever give you permission to come down the mountain? Don't you know that if something happens to you, I'll be heartbroken?" Xia Mingchuan still had a smile on his face, but his eyes turned sharp and piercing. Xia Xiaoleng felt a twinge of guilt when he saw this.

  Xia Xiaoliang weakly stretched out her hands to cover her face and said: "I'm hungry, Tiantian said she'd take me fishing."

  "Don't leave the cave without my permission from now on!" Xia Mingchuan put the roasted fish on the stone table by the bed, didn't look at Xia Xiaoliang again, and turned to leave.

  She jumped off the bed, wanting to chase after him, but thinking of Xia Mingchuan's words just now, she stood alone by the stone table, her shoulders shaking.

  She never thought that the gentle and elegant Xia Mingchuan would be angry with her. The expression he had just now seemed to be very disappointed in her? But she didn't do anything wrong! She just wanted to go catch fish to eat, what a petty thing to get angry about!

  She slowly sat down against the stone table, her cat ears drooping, and the whole demon felt unwell. The aroma of roasted fish didn't even stir up any appetite in her at this moment.

  "What the...! How absurd! At my age, I was actually scared by a little brat who looks like he's only ten years old!" Xia XiaoLiang's right hand was clenched into a fist, grasping her belt, while her slender left hand drew circles on the stone table.

  Some things can't be figured out, so I won't think about them anymore. Worrying is useless and can't fill my stomach! Turned my head to look at the roasted fish, gobble it up!

  With a satisfied heart, Xia Xiao Liang patted her flat stomach, and with her fingers, she picked out a fish bone from between her teeth. All troubles and worries were gone as soon as the fish entered her belly.

  Xia Xiaoliang lay on the stone bed, propping up her second leg, looking at the irregular stones on the top of the mountain cave, and began to think about her future demon life.

  Staying behind isn't bad either. There's fish to eat and little buddies to protect and play with, but no freedom.

  Leaving is also good. Can be carefree and don't have to be forced to learn or practice anything, but life has no guarantee.

  Sigh, these two choices are really difficult!

  Then she jumped down from the stone bed and sat in the place where she had just eaten fish. With her slender fingers, she picked up the fish bones on the stone table, going, staying, going, staying...

  Go!

  Xia Xiaoliang revealed a sly and cunning smile, tiptoeing to the entrance of the cave, looking around cautiously as if searching for something or someone, despite being alone.

  The entrance is right in front of you, go! Boom!

  "Ahh! I'm dying of pain!" Xia XiaoLiang covered her forehead with her small hands, gritting her teeth. Why can't she get out of the cave that was originally fine?

  Xia Xiaoliang stretched out another hand in front of her, but found that there was a layer of transparent membrane at the entrance of the cave that couldn't be passed through!

  "What kind of international joke is this! What's the difference between you and a stupid cat crashing into glass!" Xia Xiaoliang was furious, slamming against what could be called a boundary.

  Perhaps it hurt her hand, Xia Xiao Liang symbolically knocked twice and then stopped. This was the rhythm of being locked up...

  "Xia Mingjiang! I can never play happily with you again!" Xia Xiaoleng roared.

  Dragging his ears and tail, he returned to the stone bed in a daze, tossing and turning but unable to sleep. Xia Xiaoleng gritted his teeth and stomped his foot, deciding to go all out - memorize the Twelve Meridians!

  What? You dare to say Xiaoliang's stance is not firm? Life is indeed precious, but freedom is even more valuable. If it's for the sake of roasted fish, both can be abandoned! For life, for freedom, and even more for roasted fish, let's carry on!

  "I believe that as long as I memorize this damn Qigong Eight Meridians, I'll have freedom and roasted fish!" Xia XiaoLiang swore solemnly at the mountain top, making a vow to the mountain top!

  Fortunately, this mountain top is solid enough, otherwise the trouble of collapse would be great.

  "How did you end up sitting on the ground?" Xia Mingchuan appeared silently behind Xia Xiaoliang, heard Xia Xiaoliang's oath, and smiled slightly.

  "Ah?" Xia Xiao Liang was startled by Xia Ming Chuan and hastily stood up, but didn't expect to rush too quickly and bump her head into Xia Ming Chuan's chest.

  Xia Xiaoliang pouted and scolded: "How can you come in without making a sound!"

  "Meow! I'm not a mouse, where would I squeak?" Xia Mingchuan helped Xia Xiaoliang tidy up her disheveled hair.

  Xia Mingchuan's words were so humorous that Xia Xiaoleng's stuffy mood improved a bit because of him.

  "How did you get a bump on your forehead? You're so careless!" Xia Mingchuan used his icy fingers to gently touch the injured spot on Xia Xiaoliang's forehead, and suddenly she felt less pain.

  Xia Mingchuan pulled Xia Xiaoliang's small hand and walked in, as if he had forgotten the fact that he had just stormed off! Xia Xiaoliang looked at Xia Mingchuan with suspicion, wondering if this guy was sick or something? He was the one who got angry, but now he was all smiles again!

  What's going on?!
