Chapter 1096: Chapter 1096: Amnesiac Lady Hunter vs. Transmigrated Lady in the Mountains (Part 12)
Gu Shengyin and Shih Lei walked into the mountain forest together.
Shih Lei hadn’t spoken since they left the village, which puzzled Gu Shengyin a bit.
She turned her head slightly and found that he had been watching her with bright eyes.
Gu Shengyin found it amusing and asked, “Why are you looking at ?”
Caught sneaking a glance, Shih Lei’s face flushed suddenly.
He stamred, “N-nothing, I was just thinking about what Ah Luan said earlier. It seed very novel and made a lot of sense.”
Such words were probably the most simple and sincere praise a mountain man could offer.
Gu Shengyin, however, had an impulse to tease him: “Oh? Then tell , what makes sense?”
Upon hearing this, Shih Lei’s face reddened even more.
He didn’t really understand any reasoning; he just purely felt that Ah Luan was different from the won in the village.
This difference wasn’t just that rare beauty, elegant deanor, or behavior, but also what she did, and what she said.
Shih Lei couldn’t quite express it, but he just felt that Ah Luan was different from others.
He shook his head and said, “I can’t express it.”
He then looked at Gu Shengyin again, seriously saying, “But I just feel that what Ah Luan said makes a lot of sense.”
If what she said didn’t make sense, why would the people in the village be left speechless by her words?
Shih Lei thought with redness in his ears.
Seeing his honest expression, Gu Shengyin was moved and was about to say sothing, when her ear twitched.
Shih Lei seed to have noticed sothing too, just about to speak: “There’s prey coming…”
Then she saw the woman beside her flip her left hand, grabbing the longbow from her back, and with her right hand swiftly setting an arrow, almost simultaneously, the sharp arrow shot out swiftly, flying like lightning towards a certain direction.
A cry from so animal ca from the quivering dense forest, and when the two got there to check, the arrow that Gu Shengyin had just shot was firmly lodged in a wild chicken. The chicken was not completely dead yet, with half its body stained in blood, still shuddering in spasms.
Seeing this, Gu Shengyin stepped forward to lift up the wild chicken, neatly twisted its neck, and then extracted the arrow.
Then, she turned back to et Shih Lei’s wide-eyed and open-mouthed gaze.
“What? Did I scare you?” she asked.
Shih Lei finally snapped out of it, looking at the wild chicken in Gu Shengyin’s hands, still in disbelief.
“No, no, it’s just, I never thought… Ah Luan, you truly are amazing!” Shih Lei gazed at Gu Shengyin with burning eyes.
How could there be a woman like Ah Luan in this world?
So beautiful, able to speak big truths, skilled in martial arts, and with such great archery.
Shih Lei bowed his head, thinking carefully, compared to Ah Luan, he being a man couldn’t match her in anything.
Thinking like this, he grew despondent again in his heart.
Mountain folk are straightforward, unable to conceal their thoughts, and his face showed his disappointnt.
Seeing his look, Gu Shengyin could easily guess what he was thinking.
She comforted him: “Even though I don’t rember anything, seeing my martial arts and archery, I must have been taught by a famous master. You rely solely on talent, the two can’t be compared.”
Though Shih Lei felt Ah Luan’s words were a bit convoluted, he could grasp the general idea; she was comforting him.
Ah Luan really is an exceptionally nice woman, he thought.
