After being divorced, I pried the corner of my ex-husband

The sun slowly fell silent on the western sea level.The sunset glow reddened the entire sky, and also cast a large swath of sparkling crimson reflections on the sea.

The day is coming to an end, but there are no signs of other humans approaching here.

The bonfire by the sea lit dead branches and made a crackling sound.

Li Guanying and Xia Bing sat side by side with a bowl of hot cooked sea shrimp, oyster and clam soup.

The unique saltiness and sweetness of seafood will whet your appetite.

Xia Bing took a mouthful of sea prawns and spat out the shells. "Well, the taste is good, very Q-bomb. If I can..."

"It would be even more delicious if there was a little salt." Li Guanying was holding a clam, gnawing on the meat, taking Xia Bing's words.

"I mean, if it can be made into sashimi, it should be even more delicious in the world." Speaking of food, Xia Bing closed his eyes and looked drunk. "Wash fresh prawns, marinate them with wine, and eat them directly. Or if they are big, remove the threads of the prawns and slice them, and order them with soy sauce and mustard. The taste..."

"In modern society, you actually like raw food? It's unbelievable." Li Guanying was very surprised.

"No, no, it's not all delicious raw, such as this oyster, this scallop. Take minced garlic, shallot and ginger and fry until fragrant, add some soaked vermicelli, cover the meat, pour some light soy cooking oil, and steam over water ...the gods can't get enough."

"It sounds very desirable. Brother Xia's cooking skills must be very superb." Li Guanying smiled and looked at his profile with admiration.

"Where. Actually... I haven't cooked at all." Xia Bing looked at his slender hands in a daze by the light of the fire.

He really didn't cook.

If you want to eat, just tell the servants and aunts at home to make it.

Later, when he got married, when his aunt was not cooking, it was Quan Zhenying who washed his hands and cooked soup for him. He picked up whatever he liked and made it for him in different ways.

They had known each other for three and a half years and had been married for three years. Quan Zhenying's attitude towards him had never changed.

That's right, the relationship of three years, how could it be said to be obliterated?

An accident during the day happened so quickly that Xia Bing didn't have time to appreciate it carefully. Now that night fell and everything around him became quiet, the dull pain in his heart was like a gradual onset of illness, making him breathless. .

He didn't understand, let alone dare to think deeply.

Since when did that person change his mind?

Or was it a conspiracy for him to approach him from the very beginning?

"It's a pity that there is no condiment on the island. If we go out, I will definitely try to cook according to Brother Xia's instructions. Brother Xia? What's wrong with you?" Li Guanying frowned when she saw Xia Bing in a daze, afraid of his body Unwell, hurry up and ask about it.

Xia Bing coughed twice, held back his emotions and waved his hands to cover it up: "It's okay. I'm just homesick."

Li Guanying said: "If there are no boats coming here tomorrow, I think there are many trees here, why not cut down a few trees, tie a raft, and make two oars, maybe you can find land with a row."

Xia Bing thought about it for a while, and shook his head again and again to object: "The sea is unstable, and you don't have a positioning device, how can you go out to sea! When a wave hits, the raft will capsize."

"It makes sense." After Li Guanying heard this, she no longer refuted, and suggested that Xia Bing and Xia Bing take turns guarding the fire source to ensure that it would never go out.

On the island at night, the temperature will drop by half compared to the daytime.

Fortunately, they lit a fire and lay on the warm sand, so they didn't feel too cold.

Xia Bing lay down beside Li Guanying, closed her eyelids after a while, and fell asleep breathing evenly.

Li Guanying looked back at him, gathered her clothes, turned and walked into the forest.

He flew up to the tree, took off the cover that he hung on the tree during the day, returned to the campfire and roasted for a while before gently covering Xia Bing.

Xia Bing fell asleep beautifully, and in her dream she seemed to return to her college days.

He went out to sketch with a drawing board on his back, and was molested by a few gangsters.

This scene was originally a reenactment of his first acquaintance with Quan Zhenying.But Quan Zhenying has been hiding in the corner and watching coldly, just where Xia Bing can see.

But he ignored Xia Bing's cry for help, and even one of the gangsters tore open Xia Bing's collar and put his hand in, but he didn't take any action.Even, looking at Xia Bing who was about to be humiliated, he smiled coldly and wretchedly.

Xia Bing was hooked around the neck with one hand and couldn't resist, while the other hand reached for his belt.After undoing the buckle of the belt, those hands grabbed the waist of his trousers and pulled them down.

The coolness around his waist, the feeling of peeling off his clothes, and the helplessness he couldn't resist made Xia Bing terrified and screamed.

"what--"

He shouted and struggled to get up while holding his head, just falling into a warm embrace.

"Brother Xia, Brother Xia! Don't be afraid, I'm here."

The cross-collared shirt of the person in front of him looks so friendly after the crisis, which makes people feel full of security.

Xia Bing plunged into Li Guanying's arms, trembling. "me......"

He clenched his fist so tightly that his nails dug into his palm.

Li Guanying gently patted his back, and said softly like coaxing a child: "Are you trapped by a nightmare? Don't be afraid, it's okay. We are all still alive."

He rested his forehead on Li Guanying's shoulder, closed his eyes tightly to calm his rapid breathing.

"Hey...I feel like an idiot..."

What he sighed was not the dream, but the remorse for his gullibility in Quan Zhenying.He thought that the people next to him would not understand his self-mockery.

But Li Guanying said: "Who hasn't been innocent and easy to bully when they were young? Although justice is in the heart, evildoers can't let it go. Brother Xia, whenever I need me, Li Guanying, as long as you speak, I will do both for you." Rib knife."

Xia Bing raised his head and looked at the person in front of him in disbelief. Apart from being moved, he was also ashamed that his mind had been punctured.

He pursed his lips and pulled out a smile to ease the embarrassment: "Aha...I made Brother Li laugh. It's time to wake up from the nightmare, and it's time for you to rest."

Under Li Guanying's eyes, two patches of light black bruises boiled up, which became deeper and deeper against the firelight.

"I'm fine. I used to help His Majesty fight wars, and I was able to deploy in the middle of the night, or sneak attack or defense, and sometimes I stayed for two or three days."

Shaking her head, Xia Bing handed the bodyguard to Li Guanying.

"It's a shift. I just woke up, and I have nothing to do, so I went to warm up."

Li Guanying handed him half a bowl of coconut greens, pointed to the grass net half woven with palm leaves in front of the fire, and said, "I'm thinking, it's hard to feed us if we only eat these. Weave a net and catch some tomorrow." fish to eat."

Speaking of food, Xia Bing also became energetic.

"Brother Li, have you heard of 'catch the sea'?"

"Why catch the sea?"

Xia Bing explained: "Catching the sea means catching all kinds of shrimps, crabs, shellfish and other seafood on the beach in the early morning when the tide is low. There are many edible things in this sea, but fish is the most difficult to catch. It will take a long time to make a net, why not weave a basket, and tomorrow morning I will take you to experience catching the sea!"

Li Guanying accepted it readily. Palm leaf fibers are tough and limited in length, so it is easier to weave baskets.

In the middle of the night, the temperature was low, and the two of them were sitting next to each other, wearing Li Guanying's outer shirt together, chatting all over the world, and the basket was finished in a short while.

People are always curious about other people's affairs.

This kind of mentality is called "eating melons" on the Internet today.

When people eat melons when they are suffering, they can forget their own pain for a short time.

Xia Bing is no exception.

He was curious, Li Guanying is a dignified son, it is not surprising that he can lightly climb a tree, why does he still make a fire and weave?This status is no less than being born with a golden spoon in your mouth, shouldn't you be pampered?

Li Guanying was outspoken and directly talked about the relationship history of his parents.

Although his father was a prince, he was actually born as a commoner.The old man first worked as a bodyguard in the Kingdom of Zhen, and later he was reused by the emperor because of his high martial arts skills.In an operation to rescue the proton in the neighboring Liang country, he was successful in escorting him, and he also rescued the princess of Zhen country who was forcibly taken away by the king of Liang as a concubine, and brought her back to Zhen country.

This princess is Li Guanying's mother.

With just a few dots, Xia Bing has conjured up a wonderful romance of a knight rescuing a princess from the mouth of a dragon.

"It's so touching!" He couldn't help applauding excitedly. "Uncle has made great contributions, so His Majesty King Zhen made him a son-in-law and also made him king!"

Li Guanying smiled: "It's not that simple."

The country of Zhen is a small country the size of a palm, and it survives in the gap between several powerful countries. Although the princess of the country of Zhen is a princess, she has the consciousness to marry out of her relatives since she was a child.

The son-in-law of the Kingdom of Zhen was just promoted from a bodyguard to a chief bodyguard.

In the troubled times of multi-country separatist regimes, when another powerful country attacked, he took the princess who was already pregnant...and fled.

This Uncle Li didn't simply escape, but defected to the later Emperor of the Great Yuan Kingdom, and became his right-hand man, helping him in the South and North Wars, and repeatedly made military exploits.

With the gradual expansion of the Great Yuan Kingdom, he was named king.

"Then, uncle just took the princess and ran away in times of crisis. His father-in-law... I mean, the king of Zhen Kingdom, can he let it go? Brother Li, you...should Could it be that he was hunted down by grandpa?"

The story was so tortuous, Xia Bing was fascinated by it, and couldn't help guessing the follow-up plot.

Li Guanying shook her head. "This statement is wrong. My father was granted the title of king, and my mother was also given the title of nobleman. Seeing this, my grandfather took the initiative to show his kindness, and took the opportunity to recognize relatives with Emperor Yuan, became a member of the Hezong Kingdom, and helped to calm down the unrest. The conflict in Shao Lian Heng. So, it is a fief and a reward, and the advantage is not small. The most important thing is that he has a strong backing. It is too late for him to be happy."

"So that's the way it is. Having said that, I doubt whether your father let you go on purpose." Xia Bing couldn't help but call the expert.

"To be honest, I think so too." Li Guanying and Xia Bing looked at each other and laughed.

Li Guanying was born during the period when his father followed the Emperor Yuan to the north and south.

It doesn't matter if you have a name or not, the most important thing is to survive.Just maybe live a little better.

Emperor Yuan still worried about food and grass.

He was a child who grew up in the military camp, so he naturally grew up eating the big pot of food in the military camp.

In the most difficult times, he also went to dig wild vegetables, pick wild fruits, hunt and catch fish.

Fortunately, the ending is happy.

Almost everyone has a happy ending.

A feeling of admiration rose in Xia Bing's heart.

Starting from scratch is not easy, but it is the most inspiring.

In comparison, he still felt inferior.

At the beginning, my self-righteous struggle and persistence seemed to be in the middle of nowhere, but now, it looks like a sand sculpture.

After Li Guanying finished telling the story, seeing Xia Bing's mood eased, she fell asleep in peace.

They changed shifts twice in the second half of the night, and the sky in the east gradually turned pale.

Where the sea and the sky meet in the east, surrounded by the morning glow, the golden red sun rises slowly.

The tide slowly recedes down the beach as the sun rises.

"Brother Li, let's catch the sea!" Xia Bing said to Li Guanying who just opened his eyes, carrying the basket he had made up.
