Chapter 136: Chapter 136 I, like it a lot! It was far more valuable in his hands. Moreover, Gu Qiaoqiao had also played an indispensable role in escaping from the wolf’s jaws. But how did this little girl master such astonishing carving skills? She had carved an eagle spreading its wings in flight on the Wolf’s Fang. Sёarᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Even the feathers on the wings were clearly visible. It seemed as if, in the next moment, the eagle would really soar into the blue sky. In the bright light, the Wolf’s Fang emitted a chillingly cold light, as if it could repel everything that dared to infringe upon its dignity. And what was most startling was that the eagle’s eyes were red, and a hint of red seemed to add a killing aura to that chilling light. Qin Yize’s fingertips rested on the eyes of the Divine Eagle, and he paused there motionlessly. Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t know whether Qin Yize liked it or not, but she still hurriedly explained, “The red on the eagle’s eyes isn’t dye, it’s a drop of blood from my finger that wouldn’t wash off. If you don’t like it, I can carve another one for you.” Qin Yize’s attention was instantly drawn, and he looked at Gu Qiaoqiao’s fingers and asked in a cold voice, “Was it cut by the carving knife?” “Yes, it was the day my dad had an accident. Hearing what Aunt Wang said, I was so frightened that my hand trembled, and I cut my finger.” Qin Yize lowered his eyes, his expression inscrutable. After a few moments, Qin Yize slowly extended his hand and indisputably grasped Gu Qiaoqiao’s left hand. Holding it in his palm, he looked carefully, and only after seeing there were no scars did he frown and say, “Be more careful in the future.” Gu Qiaoqiao felt her breathing seemed a bit labored. Having her hand held by him had happened before. But today, it was cradled in his palm. That feeling made Gu Qiaoqiao somewhat panicked, as if in an unknown corner deep in her heart, something she had desperately suppressed was about to burst forth. This realization made Gu Qiaoqiao panic. She suddenly withdrew her hand, took a step back, and asked dryly, “You don’t like it, do you? Then I’ll carve another one for you.” The soft, somewhat cool little hand suddenly withdrew, leaving Qin Yize’s palm empty. He quietly clenched it, then picked up the Wolf’s Fang. Then, he slowly curled up the corners of his mouth toward Gu Qiaoqiao and smiled. This was the first time Gu Qiaoqiao had seen Qin Yize smile like this. How to describe it? Like ice-breaking spring waters, like morning clouds parting before the dawn, and also like the instant blooming of flowers throughout a garden… In this life and the past, it was the first time Qin Yize had shown such a smile to Gu Qiaoqiao. This kind of smile, warm like the sun melting ice, also carried a charm that touched one’s soul. Gu Qiaoqiao felt parched. Staring blankly at Qin Yize, it turned out that when he genuinely smiled, he looked so good. And Qin Yize, seeing such a dazed Gu Qiaoqiao, was obviously very pleased. He adjusted the string of the Wolf’s Fang, then hung it around his neck and tucked it inside his shirt. At the moment it touched his skin, Qin Yize paused. His senses were always sharp, so that feeling, seemingly full of power and warmth, was definitely not an illusion. In that moment, it seemed as if he and the Wolf’s Fang Amulet had been together for many years, a kind of heart-to-heart connection Qin Yize had never experienced before. His hand pressed against the Wolf’s Fang at his heart, but then he suddenly remembered the drop of Gu Qiaoqiao’s blood on the eagle’s eye. Thus, another feeling arose spontaneously. His eyes misted with emotions that no one could understand, and in those eyes, it seemed as if stars were flowing. Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyes landed on Qin Yize’s chest, and a peculiar feeling arose in her heart. On that eagle’s eye, there was a drop of her blood. And now it was pressed tightly against Qin Yize’s chest. This realization made Gu Qiaoqiao’s face flush. Red as the petals of peach blossoms in April. The already small bedroom seemed even more suffocating because of Qin Yize, because of this incident. And with every glance at Gu Qiaoqiao like this, Qin Yize’s eyes softened even more. Seeing her bewildered and puzzled expression, how could he not find her adorable? He really wanted to reach out and ruffle the little girl’s head. Would it feel as he had imagined? Thus, this time, Qin Yize’s hand uncontrollably reached out, his slender palm landed on Gu Qiaoqiao’s head and gently ruffled it. Smiling, he said, “Gu Qiaoqiao, the amulet you carved, I like it very much!” After speaking, he naturally withdrew his hand and quietly clenched it, seamlessly changing the topic, “Tomorrow I’ll take you to the county town; we should buy some groceries, and the day after tomorrow is Saturday. I’m planning to invite a few familiar colleagues over for dinner.” Ah, how did he switch from the amulet to shopping and hosting so suddenly? Seeing that Gu Qiaoqiao hadn’t seemed to recover, Qin Yize spoke again, “It’ll be hard on you.” Finally coming to her senses, Gu Qiaoqiao blushed and hurriedly said, “It’s nothing, I was actually planning to buy some things too.” “Hmm,” Qin Yize slowly withdrew his smile and returned to his usual aloof demeanor, “You don’t need to get up to cook tomorrow morning; I’ll bring back breakfast, and we’ll eat together.” “Okay,” Gu Qiaoqiao nodded in response. Qin Yize gave Gu Qiaoqiao a deep look, then slipped his hands into the pockets of his pajamas and leisurely went to his own bedroom. Only then did Gu Qiaoqiao heave a long sigh and sat stunned in the wooden chair, her heart in turmoil at that moment. Each encounter had drastically changed Gu Qiaoqiao’s impression of Qin Yize. It turned out, there were so many things that she didn’t know about, Gu Qiaoqiao had no more desire to carve. She lay in bed, completely sleepless. This time, Gu Qiaoqiao was truly disturbed by Qin Yize’s actions. Things shouldn’t have developed this way. Qin Yize should have always been cold and distant, not reaching out to ruffle her hair. Such an intimate gesture wasn’t supposed to exist between the two of them. A possibility surfaced to her mind, but then Gu Qiaoqiao scornfully dismissed her own wishful thinking. Qin Yize’s heart was made of stone. How could he possibly feel that way? If it were true, how could he, a virile young man, have returned to his bedroom so calmly, without even a hint of turbulence? He didn’t even breathe erratically. Although she had never experienced that so-called love between men and women in either her past or present life, she still knew that it definitely wasn’t supposed to be like Qin Yize’s reaction. Therefore, such a possibility should not even be considered. With this thought, Gu Qiaoqiao’s initially turbulent heart gradually calmed down. In this lifetime, there would be no future for her and Qin Yize. Once she found the enemy from her past life, she would completely set Qin Yize free. When the time comes, he would probably be very happy as well. And that time wouldn’t be too long. Perhaps, it might not even take a year. With these thoughts, Gu Qiaoqiao stopped her wild imaginings. Because she still had many important things to do.
