My face suddenly changed, and I looked straight at him: "Where is he?"

This time, she calmed down and looked at me calmly.

“…”

I still wanted to ask, but when I looked up and met her gaze, I immediately understood. Yan Ruoyu smiled and said, "Cousin, if I told you, then this is a confession. Am I already included in the game?"

I thought about it and said, "Your surname is Yan. When the old lady invited you to come and you decided to come, you were in this bureau."

She said, "You know I'm not talking about this."

“…”

"What I want to get into is your game."

“…”

"I want to join you!"

I smiled and said, "Then I think it may not be."

Her face changed, and I looked into her eyes and said solemnly: "You also know that the major events we are planning now are related to the future of the world and the future of Xichuan. This is not a business. When doing business, I will find people with the same interests, but in this situation, the allies I am looking for must be consistent in beliefs."

“…”

"It's obvious that what you do has nothing to do with my beliefs. You just want to achieve your own interests."

“…”

"If, if, they discover your behavior, if they tempt you with the benefits you want, you ally will become my most terrible enemy."

When she heard this, she immediately laughed: "The benefit I want most is the position of the head of my family? I have worked so hard for so many years. Would my grandfather give me this position for this?"

I looked at her with a smile, without answering her question immediately.

And she herself seemed to realize something and looked at me with a serious look.

I said lightly: "Nothing can bring greater destruction than war, and nothing can bring greater benefits than war. Compared to those, the position of your head of the family is not worth mentioning."

She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at me deeply: "Cousin, what benefits will you get from this?"

I chuckled: "Purpose? I can't get any benefits, and it's more likely that I will spend everything in my hands now on this matter."

She frowned: "Then why do you still have to do it?"

I thought about it and said, "There are always some things in this world that are a little more important than interests."

“…”

"There are always some people who give up their interests for these things."

“…”

She was silent, looking at me with a more serious expression.

I smiled and said, "Ruoyu, I understand your current mood, but we two are not suitable for alliances, and you are not suitable for participation in this matter. You have to tie your success or failure with my success or failure. There is no problem, but if you want to cooperate and form an alliance, I think it's better to forget it."

She was silent for a long time. I thought she would be a little angry and unwilling to do so, but after a while, she suddenly lowered her head and continued to embroider the flowers in her hand. I watched her stitches, and the wrinkles between her eyebrows slowly unfolded. She raised her head and looked at me and said softly: "Cousin, I understand what you mean."

I smiled.

"But my cousin," she continued, "even if it's for profit, it's true that business is true."

“…”

"I understand this very well over the years."

This time, I looked at her with some surprise, but saw her slowly picking up the embroidery work in her hand, then raised her head and said to me: "However, I also understand how important this matter is to you, my cousin. If you don't want others to interfere, I also understand your intention."

“…”

She stood up, carrying the cloth bag in her hand, and looked like she was when she came, looking obedient and gentle. No one could imagine what she had said to me just now. She did not leave immediately, but walked around the table, leaned down and leaned into my ear and said softly: "Cousin, the reason why you can't find that person's whereabouts is because we went and came last night."

“…!”

I was shocked suddenly, and I looked at her in shock with wide eyes, and she had already smiled and stood up, nodded at me, and then turned around and walked out.

The door was opened and closed again. The night wind outside had already poured into the room with the coolness of early autumn, blew me up.

Once you go, once you come.

Could it be that Pei Yuanxiu—

|

That night, I really kept my eyes open and couldn't close. I just looked at the dark sky outside. The candlelight in the room finally reached its end in the middle of the night. The light slowly became weak and then went out.

I lay in the darkness, but my heart became clearer.

However, while worrying about those things, I couldn't help but think of Yan Ruoyu.

This little woman is really surprising.

Such a quiet and gentle appearance is even softer than me, but I never thought that there was such a strong heart hidden in that delicate body, but what would happen to her?

How difficult it is for a woman to gain power from the man's world? Just like at this moment, even if I try my best to let go of everything in the past, I have to fight Pei Yuanxiu - I find that I have no confidence in being able to win.

Thinking of this, I turned my head and looked at the table on the other side of the room.

The candlestick on the table has been extinguished, and the whole room is dark, just like the scene after he grabbed my hand and poured out the candlelight last night.

Who knows what he thought at that time?

I lay quietly on the bed, but the cooler it was as cold as water, the more painful it was in my heart. It seemed like a small fire was burning constantly. Finally, I couldn't help but turn over, pulled a piece of clothes from the hanger and put it on, pushed the door and walked out.

Outside, there was a darkness that was so dark that he could not see his fingers.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! I know that this time is before dawn, that is, at the darkest time, only the faint light of the lanterns under the eaves far and near, reflecting my way forward. I did not light the candlestick, but used this light to slowly move forward in the night according to the blurred memory.

After a while, I walked outside a courtyard.

It was very quiet here, and through the courtyard gate, I could see at a glance that the room was brightly lit, and the candles on the table reflected the quiet outline of a person, projecting on the window.

It looks like sleepless all night.

I walked up and knocked on the door gently, and a very tired voice came from inside: "Who?"

I said softly, "Old lady, it's me."

The people inside paused, obviously unable to believe it. After a while, they heard her voice, and they were already excited, and they seemed much more energetic than they had just said: "What are you doing?"

"I have something to tell you."

“…”

I was silent for a moment, and then I heard a sound of footsteps.

The door was opened. As soon as I looked up, I saw Xue Qian standing at the door wearing a thin coat. Her face was filled with fatigue left by sleeplessness all night, and the corners of her eyes were a little red. But when she saw me, she immediately made her gaze become cold and sharp.

I saluted her: "Old lady."

She frowned: "If you don't sleep so late, what do you have to say?"

As soon as I was about to speak, I felt a gust of wind blowing. At this time, autumn was already coming. Although there was still summer heat during the day, the coolness could not be blocked at night. I immediately covered my nose and sneezed. When she saw me like this, her brows frowned even tighter, and she looked disgusting.

She took a step back: "Come in, look at your appearance!"

I hurriedly walked in.

The door was closed behind me, and naturally the cool breeze was quickly locked outside the door.

But I feel that the breath in the room is not much warmer than outside.

I looked up and looked around - this was my first time entering her room. It was naturally a deep feeling in the courtyard. It was very quiet here. Except for the sound of the wind and my breathing, I could hardly hear any other sounds. But the room was very gorgeous, with all kinds of decorations, not only all, but even a little bit too many. Just the five vases on the table in front were colorful and dazzling.

There are also jade, screens, incense burners...

Not only is it very luxurious, it just feels crowded.

But this room was filled with an indescribable coldness, and it was like a spicy irony between these gorgeous decorations.

I looked at the room and couldn't speak for a moment.

Xue Qian had already walked across from me, her eyes as cold as the breath in this room. She frowned and looked at me: "What do you have to say, say it."

But I didn't say what I wanted to say immediately, but turned to look at her: "Old lady, why don't you sleep so late?"

"You care?"

"…Madam is old, staying up late like this is not good for her health."

“…”

"You should have a good rest."

This time, she seemed to be a little caught off guard. She didn't expect that I would tell her this, and she didn't know what to say. She looked at me with a complicated expression for a while before she said stiffly: "It's just that I'm old and can't sleep."

“…”

"I can't bear to sleep with the rest of my time."

I was stunned, but I didn't expect her to tell me this. Just as she was a little confused, her eyes immediately became cold again, and she looked at me coldly: "What are you going to say? After that, hurry up and go back to sleep with you."

I looked at her, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "I can't sleep either. I still want to tell you something."

"What's up?"

"Old lady, have you formed an alliance with Pei Yuanxiu?"

“…”

"I think it's probably not the time that started. When I brought him back, you two had such a plan, right?"

She didn't look at me and said coldly: "Since you know, why are you asking for this?"
