Skadi's abilities are outstanding, so there is no need to worry too much. After getting separated from Skadi, Chen An felt that their fate had ended, so he did not choose to look for Skadi. He left after leaving a message for her in his own way. This separation lasted for quite a long time, until more than half a year ago, Skadi finally found him in Yan Country. At that time, he was on the run from a few girls who wanted to kidnap him and take him home to be their groom. Then, we separated for the third time. The third separation was not really a separation in the true sense. Because the time Chen An and Skadi were separated did not even exceed half a day. The reason why it counts is because Chen An really wanted to separate from Skadi that time. There's nothing I can do. Something is really wrong. After their second reunion, Skadi told him that she already knew what he was thinking, and that during the time she was looking for him, she had given up her promising career as a bounty hunter and was now an unemployed vagrant like him. In addition, Skadi's behavior became more and more bold. Not only did she kiss him several times when he was not paying attention, but she also always used the excuse of being afraid of the dark when resting at night, fearing that he would be in danger if she was too far away from him, and kept getting closer to him.
In a nutshell, no matter how you look at it, it seems like they have bad intentions towards him, just like those girls he met in Yan Country who wanted to tie him up and take him back to be their groom. Worried that if he continued like this, not only would he fail in his role as a cold-blooded and lonely outsider, but he might also be turned against by Skadi and his innocence would be in jeopardy. So one night, Chen An quietly abandoned Skadi and ran away while she was asleep. And then…then worried that Skadi might get into an accident due to her excessive emotions, he came back after observing secretly without leaving. There was no way out. When Skadi woke up and found herself abandoned, she looked so panicked and helpless that it was really pitiful. Chen An just wanted to be a cold-blooded outsider, but he was not really cold-blooded. He had known Skadi for several years. Seeing her pitiful and helpless appearance, how could he really just leave? As for whether being soft-hearted will lead to any unforeseen consequences... Be firm. As long as you stand firm, there will be no problem. Yes, there will be no problem. Since then, Chen An has never been separated from Skadi and they have been together until now. After the introduction, the focus returned to Chen An. After entering the room and taking off his shoes at the door, Chen An saw Skadi coming out of the room before he even walked into the living room. She was wearing a silk nightgown and holding a pillow with cute animal patterns. She looked at him with accusatory eyes. "You said you would take a nap with me, and you lied again." Chen An: “…” He laughed dryly: "This, this is not Ah Neng letting me play games with her, and you just happened to fall asleep again..." Skadi didn't say anything, looked aggrieved, stared~ "I say, Skadi..." Skadi didn't say anything, looked aggrieved, stared~ "Can you please stop looking at me like that?" Skadi didn't say anything, his expression became more aggrieved, staring~ Chen An: “…”
Finally realizing that he had nothing to say, he raised his hands in surrender, defeated by Skadi's aggrieved look. "Okay, okay, I was wrong, I was wrong. I shouldn't have disliked you for hugging me so tightly when you slept. I thought my innocence might be compromised, so I slipped away after you fell asleep. I'm sorry. So Didi, can you stop looking at me like you're looking at someone who has betrayed you?" Skadi didn't say anything. She came to Chen An barefoot, holding a pillow. She looked up at Chen An, her silver bangs parted on both sides of her forehead, and Chen An's face was reflected in her red eyes. She said nothing, just looked at him seriously. Chen An looked at her, and after a few seconds, he sighed helplessly. "I know, I know." He lowered his head and kissed Skadi lightly on the forehead, then said with a bit of despair: "Is this okay?" For Skadi, an apology is not words, but actions. This is how she treats Chen An, so she asks Chen An to treat her the same way. By the way, what Skadi wanted was actually a kiss, but Chen An refused to agree, so in the end she just kissed her forehead. By the way, Chen An was actually not very willing to be kissed on the forehead, but he could not beat Skadi's pitiful look every time, so he had to accept it. "..." Still a quiet reaction, Skadi's eyebrows quietly bent, revealing a happy smile full of sweetness. …… Just at this moment, the distant sea. Strange whispering sounds were heard, and huge waves rose up from the calm sea. The waves surged, and countless silver-white waves burst into pieces. The long silver hair moved in the wind, and like a phantom, a woman with red eyes and red clothes quietly emerged from the gap in the shattered bubbles. She stood on the suddenly calm sea and looked towards the east. Across thousands of mountains and rivers, I saw Skadi, who was being hugged by Chen An with a happy face. "I, Chen An..." After standing on the sea hesitantly for a while, she suddenly hummed a sad song and walked towards the road. I will find you, she thought. then. At this time, At this moment. The earth welcomed new guests. Her name is - Skadi.
…… Chapter 2: Skadi: I'm coming to see you The sky is dyed red and the sun is about to set. Now is the time to start preparing dinner. As the saying goes, men are responsible for external affairs and women are responsible for internal affairs, but this is not true for Chen An and Skadi. Skadi was born with supernatural power, and her fighting style when she was a bounty hunter was quite unrestrained, not skill-based. For her, fine-skilled work was really difficult to handle, especially in daily life. If she had to do it, she would always mess things up because of careless use of force. So even though he hasn't been a bounty hunter for a while, at home, apart from chores like sweeping the floor, everything else is basically done by Chen An. Otherwise, even when washing dishes or cutting vegetables, Skadi might accidentally use too much force and crush the bowl, or cut the chopping board with a bang. Although she was somewhat unwilling to accept this, in order to prevent herself from making things more and more troublesome, Skadi had to accept it. Walking into the kitchen, Chen An opened the refrigerator and asked Skadi casually, "Skadi, what would you like to eat tonight?" Skadi said seriously: "If Chen An does it, anything is fine." "Whatever..." Chen An couldn't help but roll his eyes at her: "It's always like this. Don't you know that it's hard to make casual things?" Skadi thought for a moment and said, "Then we can make apple pie and chocolate cake. These are what Angel and Texas love to eat the most." Although Exia and Texas are girls, they don't like to cook at home. When they are hungry, they usually order takeout. However, after becoming familiar with Chen An and Skadi, the two changed their ways and started to come to Chen An's house for dinner. At first, they felt a little embarrassed for disturbing him all the time, but since Chen An was such a great cook, he didn't mind them eating for free. As time went by, as long as they were not out working or delivering goods, they would basically come to Chen An's house for all three meals. Of course, I will pay for the food. Texas was so soft-hearted that even though Chen An saw her revealing herself, she didn't have the nerve to ask him to settle the score. Angel Energy just kicked Chen An out of the house in a rage because she realized it was almost time for dinner, and she couldn’t play with Chen An for another two hours! Skadi said this because she was used to the fact that there were only two people in her family, but when they had meals, there would always be four of them, and sometimes even more things. She also liked to consider others, so she was used to it. Chen An said unhappily, "I cook Chinese food. The things you mentioned are fine as midnight snacks, but mixing them with dinner, do you want to make yourself sick to death?" Skadi stopped talking. She tilted her head and glanced at Chen An, as if she had discovered something. She moved her nose and lowered her head to sniff the scent on Chen An's body. It's not the smell of me. With her brows furrowed, Skadi pouted quietly, then ran to the living room and threw the pillow she had been holding on the sofa. Then she ran into the kitchen again. While taking off Chen An's coat under his surprised gaze, she said seriously, "It's cold today. I'll cover your clothes to keep them warm." Chen An: “…”
It's summer now! It's not windy or rainy, and I'm not wearing short sleeves. You're using the cold weather to fool me. Do you think I'm a fool? Also, I've been wearing my clothes for a whole day, do I still need you to warm them up?! He was speechless at Skadi's excuse, but he had long been accustomed to her strange behavior. So even though he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, Chen An still let her take off her coat - as long as she was happy. After folding Chen An's clothes, she happily stuffed them into her pajamas and covered her stomach with them. Skadi's nose twitched and her brows frowned again. There is actually a smell. It turns out that the smell is not only on clothes? Chen An was chopping vegetables with a kitchen knife when he suddenly found Skadi blowing air on his hair. He stopped talking with a frown on his face: "What's wrong with you? You don't think I'm cold and are trying to warm me up in this way, right?" Skadi nodded, and while nodding, she took the opportunity to blow a breath on Chen An's face. The taste is okay, and it fits the saying "the breath is as sweet as orchid", without any odor. Chen An: “…” So, why did the old man soften his heart and turn back? Was it because this girl was so stupid that she was cute? Chen An glared at Skadi who was still blowing air into his hair stupidly. Tired and not wanting to bother with her anymore, he just pretended she didn't exist and continued with what he hadn't finished. After blowing air at Chen An seriously for a while, Skadi stopped only when she could no longer smell any other smell from him, feeling satisfied. She didn't leave. She held her belly, which had become swollen because of Chen An's clothes, and looked at it for a while, and said, "Chen An, can you teach me how to cook next time?" "What do you want to teach you? How to stew yourself in an iron pot? If that's what you want to learn, I can teach you." While Chen An was putting the cut vegetables on a plate, he was casually instructing... um, that's right, instructing Skadi: "First, prepare a big pot, then pour half a pot of water into it, then light a fire under the pot, and when the water in the pot boils, jump in with the lid lifted, and then wait a few minutes, the iron pot stew will be done by itself. How about that, have you learned it?" Skadi was a little unhappy: "Why are you talking like that? I'm serious, okay?" "Master is serious too." Chen An glared at her angrily, "If I don't let you learn this, what else do you want me to teach you? Flipping the pot? Miss Skadi, can you tell me how many pots you broke in order to learn this? Twelve! Can you tell me that it's just a simple flip of the pot. When I was teaching you, I specifically told you not to touch the stove with the bottom of the pot. How did you break twelve pots in a short time, and also killed the poor pot and stove?!" "How should I know? I didn't use any force. I just put it down gently and the pot broke..." Skadi felt guilty and her words were not clear, but she still tried to argue: "I was really careful! It was the pots themselves that were not strong. My sword... I used the sword to chop many things, and the sword didn't break, so it's really not my problem." "Sword? How dare you say that!!!" His anger suddenly soared to the sky, Chen An raised his voice, and scolded Skadi harshly: "If you can't learn to flip the pot, then you can't learn it. If you break twelve pots, then it's twelve pots. But can you tell me how you learned to cut vegetables to the point where you almost tore the kitchen apart?!" Unbearable memories flooded into his mind, making him feel a little angry: "You're not used to using a kitchen knife because it's too light, so you took out your hidden weapon and used it as a kitchen knife. You even said you were afraid of being scolded by me, so you waited until I was not at home to start practicing... Skadi, Skadi, did you want to learn how to cut vegetables, or did you want to learn how to demolish a house? If you want to demolish a house, I tell you, you don't have to learn. If you want to demolish a house, you don't even need to take a weapon. Just take off the necklace I gave you and jump around a few times at home, and you can demolish the whole house, okay?" "Don't say I'm fat, we agreed before... woo~" Skadi protested, but was frightened by Chen An's fake smile. She lowered her head aggrievedly: "I'm sorry, I just want to help you. People on land say that girls need to be virtuous, sensible and able to do housework in order to be liked by the people they like. I only know how to fight, so..."
"No so." Chen An pinched Skadi's face, making her speechless. "It's true that virtuous girls are likable, but dumb girls are not necessarily unlikable. Tallulah is as clumsy as you. Before she met Alina, she even asked me to help wash her underwear. It made people wonder how she grew up. But isn't she liked by many people?" “I don’t want anyone to like me.” The voice was a little unclear and muttered. Skadi looked up with some expectation in his eyes: "Chen An, do you like me?" Chen An was annoyed and couldn't help pinching Skadi's cheek, which felt so good to his touch. "Nonsense, if I hated you, do you think I would have been traveling with you and living together now?" "That...that..."
