Chapter 872: Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, cold beauty x killer 6

Since Shen Xi had said so, Xie Qi did not insist on leaving. He nodded slightly and said calmly, "I'm next door, I will hear any movement.

Master Shen, please have a good rest."

His voice was low and steady, with a reassuring strength.

Although Shen Xi was not very happy with him calling him like that, when he saw the slightly blue marks under Xie Qi's eyes, he knew that he must not have had a good rest in the past few days.

Shen Xi's heart softened slightly, and he no longer cared about this title tonight.

He nodded and said gently, "Okay, you should also have a good rest."

The Shen family has always had strict defense, with high walls and deep courtyards and tight guards. Not just anyone can get in easily.

Therefore, the night was naturally peaceful, with only the occasional chirping of insects and the rustling of leaves in the wind.

The next morning, it was just dawn and the faint light of morning sun shone into the house through the thin window paper.

Shen Xi just woke up from his sleep, opened his eyes blearily, and suddenly saw a dark shadow standing at the head of his bed.

He was startled, his heart skipped a beat, and he woke up instantly.

"What are you standing here for?"

Shen Xi frowned, with a hint of dissatisfaction and doubt in his tone. He rubbed his eyes, trying to clear his mind.

When Xie Qi saw that he had scared the person, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face, and he seemed a little embarrassed.

He explained in a low voice: "Didn't you ask me to keep you safe?"

His voice remained calm, but his eyes showed concern.

Shen Xi looked at him, speechless.

But after a moment, he let it go, thinking to himself: "Another stubborn guy, the difficulty of the strategy is not high."

He realized that Xie Qi's thinking was simple and direct, and he would go all out on something once he decided on it.

Since Xie Qi was already standing at the head of his bed, and he was awake and no longer sleepy, Shen Xi simply changed his clothes and got up.

He sat up, stretched, and began to get dressed.

"So what did you do when you had nothing to do?"

Shen Xi asked casually while putting on his clothes.

Xie Qi lowered his head, and seemed to be thinking seriously. After a long while, he answered him: "There is no time when there is nothing to do. Most of the time, there is something to do."

There was a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"Then what are you doing?" Shen Xi asked curiously.

"kill."

Xie Qi's tone remained calm, as if he was stating a very common fact.

Shen Xi paused for a moment when he heard this, and was secretly surprised. He looked up at Xie Qi, with a complicated look in his eyes.

He knew that Xie Qi's previous life was full of darkness and blood, but he didn't expect that Xie Qi would say such words so calmly.

However, Shen Xi quickly regained his composure. He smiled slightly and said in a relaxed tone: "Then you will be responsible for protecting my safety from now on, and you don't have to do those things anymore."

Xie Qi was slightly stunned, then nodded and said firmly: "Okay."

Although the conversation between the two was brief, it revealed an indescribable tacit understanding and trust.

"Let's go have breakfast first, and then I'll take you for a walk on the street." Shen Xi said as he tidied his clothes.

Although Xie Qi was a little confused, he still followed him obediently and walked out of the room together.

"Why go walking on the street?"

He couldn't help but ask.

"I want to buy some clothes. Since you are responsible for my safety, you must go out with me."

Shen Xi explained, with a matter-of-fact tone.

This reason was reasonable, so Xie Qi didn't ask any more questions.

But he didn't know that the clothes Shen Xi wanted to buy were related to himself.

The two came to the Shen family's shop, and Shen Xi asked someone to bring out the ready-made clothing patterns that he had just designed recently.

Winter is coming soon, and it may snow in about twenty days, so we should prepare winter clothes early.

After Shen Xi selected a few styles, he handed the style book to the shopkeeper. "Just decide on these for now, and keep two of the new fox furs for me in a few days."

The shopkeeper took the sample book and agreed repeatedly.

Just when Shen Xi was about to ask someone to make clothes in the back, he asked Xie Qi who was standing nearby to come over.

"All made to his measurements."

He pointed at Xie Qi and said to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper's eyes flickered between the two, and he secretly wondered, 'I've never seen the young master personally bring his servants to buy clothes. This person looks good, could he be the young master's mistress?'

The people of Da Xia are simple and relatively open-minded. It is normal for young masters from wealthy families to have a few male favorites.

So the shopkeeper looked at this scene without making a fuss. Instead, he smiled and asked someone to bring a tape measure to measure Xie Qi's size.

Although Xie Qi didn't understand these, he didn't show any doubt in public. He just stood there obediently, waiting for the clerk to measure his size.

He recalled the last time he measured the size, it seemed to be when the organization was making night clothes, and it was measured uniformly.

His clothes were of very simple style, almost all black, because he had to hide in the dark to kill people for a long time, and blood stains on black would not be easily visible.

This was the first time he had so many sets of clothes at the same time, and they were no longer just black.

An inexplicable emotion surged in Xie Qi's heart, and at this moment, his state of mind also changed slightly.

While waiting, Shen Xi opened the task panel and discovered that his favorability had inexplicably increased by 15% when he fell asleep last night.

Just as he was about to close the panel, he discovered that his favorability had increased by another 10%. Shen Xi felt sorry for Xie Qi for some reason. "Just a few pieces of clothing and the popularity increased by 10%?"

He realized how deprived and lonely Xie Qi's past life was.
