Su Xin was frightened by the sudden sound and shrank her neck. With her expressionless face, she looked like she was unwilling to admit her mistake.
The two of them were in a stalemate at the table for a while, until the cold air made Commander Su shiver. Sheffield softened his heart and took out another cup, pouring hot water back and forth until it was drinkable, and then stuffed it into Su Xin's mouth.
"Well, thank you, sis."
Su Xin thanked him with a wooden face, then took a sip timidly to check the temperature. Only then did she finish the water with peace of mind and returned to her bed, curled up motionless.
Sheffield just stared at the little commander, and only when she was sure that he had returned to the bed safely did she lower her eyes and stand there quietly, fulfilling her duties as a maid.
It’s a pity that the little master seems to talk more today.
"...Sister Sheffield?"
"..."
"Hmm...why didn't you say anything today..."
"..."
"Are you... angry with me?"
Sheffield paused with his eyes lowered, glanced at the little commander with trembling eyelashes, and replied coldly: "I dare not."
"Ah... you're angry..."
"..."
"...I just...haven't seen you guys for a long time, so I'm a little uncomfortable..."
"..."
"Isn't that it? That's my injury? It's actually recovering, but the whole injury takes a long time to heal. It will probably be healed in another week."
"..."
"...Huh? Not really... Then why?"
"...Master is overthinking."
Commander Su would never believe this, so she paused for a few seconds and asked softly, "...Are you angry?"
"No."
"...Are you angry?"
"No."
"angry--"
"No."
"...You are angry, right?" The little commander sniffed and smelled a faint spicy smell in the air, which might represent some kind of emotion called anger. "You are angry with me, right?"
Under the constant questioning of the young commander, Sheffield took a deep breath and finally couldn't help it.
"Master has such a keen sense, how could he not guess what I'm thinking? I guess it must be because he doesn't care. Master is truly a man of great character, willing to go through fire and water for someone he just met."
"Compared to that, we incompetent people who can only wait at home for the great master's triumphant return are really far behind."
"If we can work harder and strive to gain a place in the master's heart, the master will definitely not leave without saying a word like he did this time, right?"
"Or is it that what's at home is not as important as what's outside? It seems that the master is really single-minded and always thinks of others."
"I wonder if my humble maid gets into trouble in the future, will my master choose to help others in need, or will he turn around and look at me?"
"I think that the master with such great love will definitely choose someone else, right? After all, the master is so independent that he doesn't need a maid like me who is useless at a critical moment, right?"
"If you already have the answer in your heart about what is more important, why are you still talking to a meaningless person like me? Just give me orders."
"Even if you are a pest who always likes to annoy people, as a maid, don't I still need to fulfill my duties and complete the tasks you assign me?"
"It seems that there is no need to talk to me about those meaningless things in daily life.
"Sister Sheffield." The little conductor leaning against the bedside faced the maid with his eyes closed and his head tilted, "It's so cold..."
"...Don't you know that what's covering you right now is a blanket that can keep you warm? Or do you think teasing me will make you happy?"
"...I'm so cold."
"so what?"
Commander Su paused, pursed his lips, opened his hands to the air, and said with a slight stutter: "I want...I want to hug..."
Sheffield looked at the arms opposite him that were tilted nearly 30 degrees, touched his upper jaw with his tongue, finally sighed, took three or two steps forward, and pressed the little conductor into his arms a little roughly.
"...if you dare move your head, I will break your neck immediately."
"Um... How scary." Commander Su Xiao recited a sentence, then put his hands behind the maid's back and patted her gently, "... I'm sorry, um, I was too willful..."
"It's great that you have such self-awareness." Sheffield paused, "If you can correct your mistakes every time you admit them, I think everyone will be happier."
Commander Su smelled the faint scent of laundry detergent on Sheffield's body and felt inexplicably relaxed, so he subconsciously rubbed against the maid's arms.
Sheffield froze, and before she could say anything, she heard some noise coming from outside the window.
"Angel sister——"
"boom!"
"what!"
Commander Su was stunned, and raised his head from Sheffield's arms and asked in confusion: "Why did they suddenly open fire...?"
"Just a pest." Sheffield put the pistol back under her skirt, then grabbed Su Xiaozhi by the back of her collar, pushed her back into the quilt, and covered her tightly with the quilt.
"You should go to bed."
"...oh.
"...
"...Sister Sheffield, will you be here all night?"
"...
"...elder sister?"
"Ah."
"That's good...goodnight."
"......install."
ps: Only two updates tonight...Good night...
Chapter 380 Let the Wind Tell You 1
Su Xin slept quite well last night. After all, she could smell the faint fragrance on Sheffield's body, which meant she knew that the maid was always not far away from her.
As long as she was sure that there was someone familiar beside her, Su Xin would be able to fall asleep normally, without making any noise, and would not wake up until the next morning.
But in fact, Commander Su Xiao didn’t know the exact time when she woke up, whether it was early morning or dusk. She could only see darkness without a trace of light.
Fortunately, the little commander had a good mentality and her biological clock was very punctual. Before Sheffield woke her up, Su Xin had already crawled out of the cooled bed.
".It's so cold."
"If I were you, I would have chosen to turn on the air conditioner or the electric blanket before going to bed last night." Sheffield came forward with a set of clothes, and while helping the little conductor put them on, he complained mercilessly.
The faint smell of laundry detergent lingered at the tip of Su Xiaozhi's nose. It did not smell cheap or harsh. Instead, it brought a sense of ordinary life to Su Xiaozhi, which made Su Xin relax.
However, no matter how natural she is, she would not choose to open her mouth easily at close range before brushing her teeth. This seems to have become one of Su Xiaozhi's strange life rules.
After getting dressed, Commander Su got out of bed and walked slowly but gradually towards the bathroom with familiarity, and at the same time advised Sheffield to go to rest first.
"It's been a night, sister, why don't you take a rest? I won't go out today, you can sleep well."
“Thank you for your concern, Master. If you are really worried about me, please sleep alone at night so that I can have some time to rest.
"Ah... well..." Commander Su thought for a moment, "Then I'll go find Yubari. She should be doing experiments all night, so it won't matter if I sleep next to her."
Sheffield paused after hearing this, "Then... don't bother others. I can take care of your trivial matters by myself. Please don't add more work to others."
Commander Su smiled twice with a wooden face, thought for a moment and explained, "I'm not laughing at you. I'm really happy. Um... forget it, I'm going to go wash up."
Sheffield said nothing. He watched Su Xin go into the bathroom and close the door. Then he looked at his watch, looked around, and then touched his cheek with the back of his hand.
"...Tsk."
Although the little commander planned not to go out, Sheffield dragged Su Xin out and put her safely at the dormitory door on the grounds that he "didn't want to help his moldy master remove the stains."
The weather today is very good, the sun is shining, and the wind is not strong, blowing lazily, as if it is playing coquettishly with people. It is very suitable for a walk.
Commander Su felt the warmth of the sun on his skin for the first time in a long time. The gentle breeze brought comfortable fresh air, which gave the sick little commander a sip of milk.
"Well...Okay, then let's go to the restaurant first?" Commander Su stretched lazily, his slender wrist almost reflecting the light. "I remember walking straight for a hundred steps and then turning right...well..."
After the young conductor remembered, he began to move forward step by step, and Sheffield followed closely behind Su Xin.
Commander Su could hear the light sound of high heels hitting the floor behind him, and was sure that the maid was right behind him, so he walked very relaxed.
The soft wind blew towards her, bypassing her eyes, blowing up her hair, and swirling around Su Xiaozhi's small and delicate ears, bringing some slight other sounds.
Kisaragi: "Lift it up high... I want to have a bite of your strawberry, can... can I have a bite? Kisaragi can exchange pineapple with you..."
Eldridge: "...... 4"
Kisaragi: "Ah... Thank you! Zeppelin Zeppelin, you should try it too. This is the cake made by Sister Yixian."
Pinghai: "Yes, everything Sister Yixian cooks is delicious. Sister Ninghai said she wanted to learn some skills so she can cook for Pinghai in the future."
Ruyue: "Well... Sister Ninghai is so nice to you. Ru... Ruyue's sisters... haven't come yet... Ah, Qi Peilin, why don't you eat... Don't you... don't like cherries?"
Little Zeppelin: "...No, this is the last love I have left in this world. It is so sweet and tempting. Even at the moment before the end, it is still worth my remembrance."
Kisaragi: "Kisaragi... Kisaragi doesn't understand... um... but it's delicious, eh? Try it quickly, and be careful not to get blown by the wind - ah."
Everyone: ".........."
Kisaragi: "Zeppelin, are you...are you...are you okay?!"
Ping Hai: "...my sister said that if you pick it up within three seconds after dropping it on the ground, you can still eat it. Um...ah, now it's been more than three seconds..."
Little Zeppelin: "...I hate...I hate this world...It took away the hope I had given it. As expected...only eternal darkness is the ending that truly suits this world..."
Kisaragi: "I...I...I can give you half of mine, okay? Stop saying those horrible... things..."
Little Zeppelin: "...delicious."
Cleveland: "Helena, shall we go out for a walk today? I want to buy a new pair of sneakers. The white ones I have are a bit worn out."
Helena: "Eh? Ah... going out to play? Just the two of us? Well... I... I... I don't have any objection... Let me change my clothes..."
Cleveland: "Oh, of course, let's go back to the dormitory first.
Helena: "So... you really don't want to do it? I... I... I suddenly have something to do... maybe next time? I'll go out with you next time!"
Cleveland: "Ah... It's okay, just buying a pair of shoes, then you go ahead and I'll ask Montpellier if there is any time--
Helena: "Ah, I think I'd rather leave it for the evening...Should we go pick out your shoes first? Do you need me to prepare anything?"
Cleveland: "Um...Is it okay to leave it until tonight? Prepare...I don't think I need to prepare anything, right? I can get there in a taxi in no time. Um...Let me see, the address is--"
Helena: "No, no, no, no... Sure enough, let's do it next time... I... I want to go back and finish my work first..."
Cleveland: "Well, OK, I'll go see--
Helena: "I still go—
Phoenix: "Cleveland!"
Montpellier: "Big Sister!"
Phoenix: "Don't take Helena out!"
Montpellier: "How can I help you today!?"
Helena: "Uh... Sorry... I wasted time again..."
Cleveland: "Ahahaha... It's okay, it'll be the same next time I buy it—"
Phoenix: "Don't whisper to my sister!"
Montpellier: "My eldest sister is not like that!"
Commander Su tilted his head, hummed a few slightly cheerful syllables from his throat with an expressionless face, then walked forward along the breeze.
