After traveling through the book, I conquered the male protagonist Long Aotian!

"Boom boom boom-"

There was a rhythmic knock on the door, and Gu Qingze knocked lightly on Song Jinnian's door with his knuckles.

After a while, the door was slowly opened and half a head popped out from inside. After seeing that it was the two of them, he opened the door completely.

Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao walked into his room and gently closed the door.

Song Jinnian sat on the bed again, his eyes looking back and forth between the two of them, as if he was curious about why they came to his room.

"I'm here to bring warmth to my brother Jinnian."

Chu Lingxiao, who was standing by, noticed his confusion and said to him with a smile.

Gu Qingze understood what he meant, put the basket in his hand on the table, and then lifted the white cloth covering it.

There were all kinds of food in there. I took a little bit of each. They were still steaming, obviously freshly baked. The tempting colors and aroma made people salivate just by smelling them.

In fact, it is the same if you put the purchased food in a storage bag and bring it back, but Gu Qingze always feels that it is a bit weird to pack it like this.

Although he knew that the storage bags were independent spaces and there would be no odor contamination, he just felt that food should not be put in them.

So he spent two demon coins to buy a bamboo basket from a vendor who made bamboo baskets. It wasn't expensive anyway, so he just considered it as supporting the craftsman.

When Song Jinnian looked at these delicious foods, his eyes lit up, and then he thought of something, and the annoyance in his eyes overflowed again.

However, he didn't say much. He picked up a piece of beef jerky and ate it in one bite.

"Great, great, thank you both brothers, I will definitely finish all these nests."

He slurred, his mouth full.

Chu Lingxiao looked at him like this, and suddenly he felt some "fatherly love overflowing". He couldn't help but smile, handed him a glass of water on the table, and reminded him softly.

"Eat slowly and don't choke."

Song Jinnian gave him a grateful look, took the glass of water and drank it all.

"Brothers, do you have anything else to do? If not, I'm too tired and want to rest early."

Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao looked at each other and heard the implication of Song Jinnian's words to drive them away.

"Brother Jinnian, I have something else to ask you."

Gu Qingze took out the card that had been exchanged for demon coins from the storage bag.

"You've been paying for both of us before, but now we have money, so... please accept it."

Song Jinnian swallowed the dried meat in his mouth and showed a dissatisfied expression.

"Don't you consider me a friend? Why are you so fussy and calculating yours and mine so clearly? Humans are always like this... If other monsters saw me paying, they would be eager to take advantage of me."

When he said this, it seemed that he was not only accusing them in front of him, but also seemed that his words were mixed with accusations against another human race.

"That's not what I meant... I just think that no matter what kind of relationship it is, it should be two-way. If it's just one-sided giving for a long time, it won't go far. We do this because we want to maintain our relationship with brother Jinnian for a longer time, because brother Jinnian is a very good demon."

Gu Qingze thought for a moment, then looked at him seriously, sincerely and gently.

Being stared at in such a way, Song Jinnian actually felt somewhat embarrassed, which was unusual for her. She avoided his gaze and did not dare to look at him.

"I understand...I understand...I misunderstood you. I will accept the money."

"It seems that Brother Jinnian also wants to be long-term friends with us. That's great."

Gu Qingze smiled and joked, and then he went on to talk when he felt that he had laid enough groundwork.

"Since we both want to be each other's long-term friends, then as friends, we should not hide our worries or sorrows from each other, but should take the initiative to confide in each other. If brother Jinnian encounters any problems, he can always confide in me and Lingxiao..."

Having said this, Gu Qingze stopped.

Earlier on the road, Chu Lingxiao raised a possibility that perhaps the other party wanted you to take the initiative to notice it before you confide in him.

He felt that what he was saying now was perfect. If Jinnian really needed to talk, he would naturally speak after hearing his words. If he didn't, it meant that he wanted to handle it alone.

Song Jinnian was not a fool, so he naturally understood what he said. His heart warmed and he forced a smile.

"Thank you for your concern, brothers. I am really touched. But even if I tell you about my worries, I can't find a solution. So I want to be quiet. Sorry to bother you, brothers."

Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao nodded, stopped disturbing him, left consciously and closed the door.
