The fifth update! Please give me a monthly vote. I’m fifty votes away from the fifth place. Brothers, please give it up. I always need some motivation when I update every day!

Almost instant.

Li Xiuning is approaching.

Li Chao remembered to avoid it, but it was too late at this time.

The grove is actually not big. Li Chao was lying on the suspension bridge in the middle of the tree just now. Li Xiuning didn't look here carefully, but didn't notice Li Chao.

But now, she ran straight into the woods.

Li Xiuning originally wanted to avoid the woods, but she never expected that there would be people in the woods. What she didn't expect was that the person in the woods would be Li Chao.

For a moment, Li Xiuning's face was full of surprise.

surprise.

The pace under his feet couldn't help but slow down.

Li Chao glanced over there and the two maids were almost coming.

"Come with me."

Li Chao turned over and grabbed Li Xiuning's hand.

Her hands were a little cold.

A little stiff.

The maid is closer.

But Li Xiuning stopped there and pulled her hands back.

"They will come over soon. You don't want them to see the two of us pulling here, right?" Li Chao whispered.

Li Xiuning no longer used force in her hands.

"Master, Prime Minister!"

The maid started shouting.

Li Chao took Li Xiuning's hand and walked into the forest.

"Where do you go?" Li Xiuning asked biting her lip.

"Go away for a while." Li Chao didn't look back.

When I came to the middle of the woods, there was a rockery. The rockery had a mechanism and a push door. When I pushed it open, there was a room that was not small inside. The room was actually the internal space of the rockery. After being hollowed out, the rockery was actually a house.

It's just that it's very disguised and looks a bit stylish, and it doesn't destroy the integrity of the garden and woods.

Bring the door back on.

There are several air holes in the house that are breathable, and the light also penetrates, making the room a little brighter.

Li Xiuning looked at Li Chao and was in a daze.

I wanted to see him many times but I didn't expect to meet him again in this way today.

The two of them were still holding hands together, and Li Xiuning did not remind him.

"It's still not very safe, let's go to the basement."

"basement?"

"Well, this cottage is just a small rest, but there is also a basement below. It is where I write books. For the sake of tranquility, I sometimes write books below without any disturbance."

There is a small room inside the rockery, a small lounge, but below it, there are more than a square basement.

Removing the lid and revealing the ladder below, Li Chao went down first, and then waved to Li Xiuning below.

"Come down quickly, the maid may come here to check it out later."

Li Xiuning said oh, not sure why she had to listen to him, but she still went down step by step and finally covered the lid.

The underground secret room is quite large, just like a large suite, with a hall, a study, a bedroom, and even a bathroom, a bathroom and a kitchen. The basement has a pipe buried to the upper part to breathe, and even a ventilation duct has been repaired. There is a ventilation fan outside. After a period of time, human or animal power is used to drive the rotary wheel bearings outside to bring the fan to ventilation.

Therefore, although it is underground, the air in the house is very fresh and not humid.

"This place is pretty good." Li Xiuning said quietly.

Only then did Li Chao realize that he seemed to be not paying attention and holding Li Xiuning's hand again.

"No one has come down to write books for himself."

Li Chao let go of her hand, but as soon as his hand was released, Li Xiuning took the initiative to hold his hand back.

Feeling the cold hands of those fingers but still a hint of warmth in the palm of his palm, Li Chao seemed to have touched the electricity.

The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous.

Li Chao felt a little embarrassed.

He tried to pull the hand back, although doing so would obviously hurt Li Xiuning's face.

But as a result, Li Xiuning held it harder, and Li Chao felt that his hands were a little hurt.

Grit your teeth and endure it.

Li Xiuning just looked at Li Chao, and the sweat on Li Chao's forehead was coming out.

Although the two had ambiguous relationships before, they had never had physical contact.

Now holding hands, there is another basement where the lonely man and widow live together, and the atmosphere is getting worse and worse.

“I’ll go light the light.”

There are air holes in the basement, which are also a little light, but it is not bright enough.

Li Chao wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to light the lights and separate and then open a little distance.

But Li Xiuning held his hand tightly but refused to let go.

"No!"

Li Chao has no choice but to say "no" and what does it mean?

The two stood there like that.

After a while, Li Xiuning still held his hand tightly and looked at him.

Li Chao felt that his hands must have been bruised.

"My hand you hold is a little hurt." Li Chao said helplessly.

Li Xiuning let go of his hand, Li Chao took the opportunity to pull back his hand, looked down and found that there were indeed a few fingerprints.

Li Chao walked directly to the coffee table in the middle hall, and he chose a single chair to sit down.

It's very hot outside in summer, but the basement is very shady.

"You sit, too."

Li Xiuning walked to the chair next to Li Chao and sat down, and continued to stare at him.

Li Chao was a little weak when he saw him.

Li Xiuning sighed, "Is there any wine?"

Li Chao originally wanted to say no, but unfortunately Li Xiuning's gaze was too powerful.

"have."

"Come Erguotou."

Damn, is this coming because of drinking or is it because of the courage to be brave?

"There is beer, drink some beer bar. I just put it down a few days ago. The small ice store inside is iced."

"I don't want to drink beer."

"Listen to me, just drink some cold beer."

Li Chao got up and took two extra-large crystal cups, one of which could hold five pounds. It looked like a small wine barrel, and it would definitely be full in one cup.

I took some ice cubes, spread a layer on the bottom, then opened the beer barrel and poured half a cup.

I came back with two oversized beer mugs. Although they were not full, except for ice, one cup was at least two kilograms of beer.

Li Xiuning picked up the wine glass and drank it.

I drank at least half a pound in one breath.

Putting down the wine glass, Li Xiuning's face turned red.

"Why are you hiding from me?"

"I'm not hiding from you."

"Don't refuse to admit it. If you dare to do it, you must be aware of it."

"Well, I admit, I'm really hiding from you, because I think it's better for us to keep a little distance."

"Be good to you or to me?" Li Xiuning was aggressive.
