Chapter 4 Name and Source of Income (Page 12)
"Why are you so nice to me?"
Qianxia didn't understand that she was just a leaf that accidentally entered the river. How could she have the value of letting the Qingqi release her kindness?
It was obvious that she had only been here not long ago.
First he picked her up, then tidied the house for her, and brought her dinner. Even though he knew the reason why she didn't want to eat, he didn't show any discriminatory expression, but she thought that this was the limit for a stranger.
did not expect……
She looked at the red maple leaf as bright as fire in her hand. There were some wet water stains on it, very few, and it looked like it had been wiped beforehand.
The sound of rain in my ears gradually became louder.
She speculated aimlessly that it was because she was like a withered and fragile leaf that made this delicate and innocent doll feel pity?
She stared closely at Qin Qi, her mind began to waver again, and she was doubtful about this kindness.
The curious person thought about it for a while. Under the bad weather, the thunder outside the window flashed away, and the roar that followed was very loud, but it did not have any impact on him. As usual, he looked at her a little shyly. .
"I just think that there are many beautiful things in this world, but it's a pity that Chinatsu has never seen them."
"Just... like this?" The unexpected answer.
But why is such a reason worthy of the other party doing so much?
"Actually, it's not all..." Qingqi's voice dropped a few degrees, and the end of his eyes turned a faint red on his already delicate face, as if he didn't know how to speak at all.
"It's just..." The voice paused, and then seemed to muster up the courage. After a while, he said sheepishly: "I feel that Chinatsu and I are the same."
He is the only alien in the world, so he is inevitably ostracized by the world. Although most of the people he meets are those who show good intentions, but... He who admires Qi Qi, he did not understand it before, but later he understood that it turned out... People who dress, behave, speak, and have strange temperaments are called strange people.
He is the "strange one."
So, will Qianxia be regarded as the second "Charming One" by those people?
Just like Qianxia's perception before, the Qingqi One is the nobleman on the high tower. When he is not tainted by the filth of the world, he has good intentions towards everything in the world.
So he couldn't help but think about doing something as much as possible for this girl who might be ostracized.
That's it.
Chinatsu saw the pure heart of the doll directly.
Chinatsu: "..."
Silent, and a bit unsure of where to start or what topic to talk about.
In the end, her mind wandered for a long time. Many words came to her lips, but she swallowed them back inexplicably. She just said: "Thank you. Qing... no, let's change the name."
The white boy tilted his head, and the golden feather hanging around his neck trembled slightly with his movements. He asked curiously: "...change your name?"
"Yes, let's change it." She said, "The title of Qi Qi Zhe is not nice."
"But it's become a habit for everyone to call it that."
If you change the name, maybe they can't adapt?
Qianxia changed her tune at the right moment and just said: "I just came here and I'm not used to being called. If you give me a name, I'll call you by your name."
The young man believed it and nodded with a look of realization: "So that's it. Then... what should I call it?"
Chinatsu asked back: "Have you ever given yourself a name?"
The young man shook his head sincerely, and behaved like a cute little rabbit. He looked at the girl in front of him pitifully and said, "I don't know what to name. Can Chinatsu help me choose a name?"
"Because it's the name Chinatsu wants to call. What if I come to pick it and it turns out to be more difficult to pronounce than 'Qingqi Zhe'?" He was a little distressed. "Then will Chinatsu be even more uncomfortable shouting it?"
So...is that so?
"If I come to get it..." The word blurted out almost without thinking, "Bai?"
"Shiro?" He repeated, and then laughed softly, "Okay, from now on, this will be Chinatsu's exclusive title."
Therefore, Qianxia's admirer has a special name, called "White".
She didn't know what the naming rules were for Inazuma. Anyway, she was just a new traveler; and Qinqi was just a puppet who was taken out of the Borrowing House and was also inexperienced in the world. How could he care about these things? ?
With only one first name and no noble or popular surname, he was given a name that seemed hasty.
Hasty?
The curious person just didn't ask.
But if she had to answer, Chinatsu would not feel hasty at all.
Rather, when she first saw him, she thought of the pure white statue carved in the Vatican's prayer hall before it was overthrown.
The way the young man handed her a maple leaf, that red maple leaf, in the gray-black weather, under the rainy sand, showed its presence so strongly in her eyes... like the dawn in the east, the skylight and cloud shadows , all rendered in white, and then turned into a golden glow.
So, almost without thinking, I blurted out this word.
It felt like the perfect fit for her.
The rain gradually lightened up.
The admirer chewed the name over and over in his heart, feeling uncontrollably excited, but he was afraid of disturbing Qianxia who was recovering from injuries, so he restrained his movements and sat in place obediently, with only a small look in his eyes. joy.
He turned to another topic: "How does Chinatsu's body feel?"
Qianxia was picked up by him and was in a coma for a few days. Now including the time she was awake, it was only seven days in total. She was so seriously injured at the time...
The hole that almost hit his heart was still bleeding, and there were also large and small scars on other parts of his body.
She was dying, half of her body was still soaked in the sea water, and her blood was flowing out. The red blood was like a ribbon fluttering in the wind, drifting far away with the waves, and then dissipated in the sea water.
He was almost frightened out of his wits. He froze on the spot for a moment before he realized how to save people.
The doll has no sense of pain, but when he saw Guimu accidentally hurting her hand by flying sawdust while chopping firewood, he screamed in pain, so the Qinqi felt that she must be in pain.
It's more painful than cinnamon wood, and it's more painful than sawdust hurting your hands.
Qianxia said: "I'm fine, and my injuries are mostly healed."
The curious person was surprised: "Eh? So fast?"
Qianxia raised her arm and saw that the wound that had been ripped open was now as smooth as new and looked normal.
"Wow." He exclaimed in a low voice, "How amazing."
Chinatsu found it a bit funny and cute at the same time. She explained: "My race has a special physique and has high recovery power, but I have to sacrifice some small energy."
After this energy is consumed, the vampire needs to eat to replenish it.
In short, she just gets hungry faster.
After learning more about it, Qingqi finally breathed a sigh of relief: "That's really great."
The rain stopped.
