"You're enough when you get back here."

When I heard his words, I was deeply and hoarse, with the deep affection that had been tempered by the years. If it were in the past, even a year ago, I might be moved.

But this time, I just lowered my head, smiled faintly, and then looked up at him.

I said, "Pei Yuanxiu, do you know--"

He looked at me with a pale face.

Do you know that this house is not as good as a jade house to me, and the life I live here is not worry-free. For people like me, glory, wealth and gentleness and consideration are all given by others, not what I pursue throughout my life.

It is easy for me to be content, but it is actually difficult to please me.

Do you know that it is not just Xue Qian who has two dreams but has achieved only one, I also have two dreams. I have hoped that I would not grow up since I was a child, and that my parents would accompany me and that I would always be happy with them. But this dream was broken when I left Xichuan. So my second dream was to have my own home and be with my beloved. Now, Liu Qinghan suffered such great pain because of you, and his life and death were uncertain, and I felt so heartbroken. The only thing that comforted me during those days was to "retrieve" my mother and be happy with them.

But, you killed her!

Do you know that you and I have not been on the same road from the beginning, but you have to tie me to your side and to this road?

I may not be able to destroy you, so I can only destroy this road.

...

At this moment, too many words and too many emotions surged into my heart, but when I met his pale face and even had a look of eager anticipation, I felt very powerless. I probably understood that nothing was useless to say. I shook my head and said lightly: "It's good that you're happy."

After saying that, he walked in automatically.

My words did not express one ten thousandth of the emotions that were surging in my heart, but instead he seemed to be deeply pierced into his heart by an invisible needle. When I turned around, I could hear the sound of his breath stagnant.

He said behind me: "Light--"

I stopped and looked back at him. After he screamed, he seemed to have no idea what else he could say. He was just standing at the door and looking at me without saying a glance.

I curled the corners of my lips and said lightly: "Since I've caught me back, I still have to worry about food, clothing, housing and use. I don't eat much, but I still don't have to eat less than three meals. I like quietness, so I usually ask not to disturb me. As for what I wear, it's good for ordinary people to use. These are never what I care about."

I said calmly, but his brows became tighter and tighter.

"Light..."

"That's it."

After saying that, I held the door frame with both hands, watched him standing at the door, and looked at me with a serious look on his face. His eyes seemed to be filled with thousands of words, and I didn't give him any more chances, and slowly closed the door.

After closing the door, I held the door with both hands and stopped for a while. I heard the wind outside and the bamboo forest shaking even harder, but I suddenly remembered something and hurriedly reached out and opened the door.

As soon as he opened the door, he found that Pei Yuanxiu had not left at all and was still standing at the door.

He was standing outside the door, but as soon as the door opened, his dark eyes lit up, as if the sun was in the room. At this moment, as the door opened, illuminated him. His spirit was cheered up and his eyes widened at me: "Light--!"

I said, "I have one more thing to ask you."

“…”

"Where is Nangong Lizhu?"

“—”

His face originally had a little brightness, as if he was very happy, but when he heard me ask this question, all the sunlight seemed to be blocked by dark clouds, and his pupils also dimmed.

And I still looked at him: "She, isn't she here?"

“…”

"She is locked up by you-where is she?"

“…”

"She should still be in Jinling, right?"

“…”

He kept silent and didn't say anything. After looking at me for a long time, he said silently: "You can even want her."

"..." I was stunned.

But after this sentence, he didn't say anything, but was full of fatigue, as if he would be overwhelmed by something in the next moment, and said in a deep voice: "You rest."

“…”

"I promise, I won't let her, let anyone disturb you."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

I frowned for a moment. I originally wanted to ask something, but at this moment I felt like I couldn't ask. I just watched him slowly turn around and slowly walk into the bamboo forest along the path. After a while, the figure disappeared in front of me.

I stood at the door, watching his figure disappear, and then I slowly retreated back to the room and closed the door.

Outside the door, everything was silent except for the sound of the wind.

At noon, it started to rain outside.

The weather is naturally like this after autumn. In the past, my favorite thing to do was sit on the head of the bed or lie on the couch on a rainy day, cover yourself with a thin blanket, hold a book, a cup of tea and an incense burner, and listen to the drizzle outside on the rustling bamboo leaves. This is probably the best enjoyment in the world.

But this time, I no longer have the feeling of enjoying this way.

Although I was exhausted by the boat and the car had been exhausted for so many days, I couldn't sleep. I just covered a blanket on my legs and sat on the head of the bed. It was quiet on the surface, but my heart was like a lake in the rain, and thousands of thoughts rippled like ripples.

I didn't gamble and go back here with him, but when I really arrived at this place, I still said I didn't regret it, but it was a lie.

I don't want to let myself fall into this situation. Han Ruoshi is not an ant that can be killed with just one hand. Although the Xichuan matter was arranged before I left, I could not arrange the matter in Jinling.

There are too many things to consider, or even worry about.

And before coming, one thing I hadn't considered was the information revealed in Miaoyan's letter.

Now that I have come here, if I don’t spend more tricks, it may be difficult to receive information from outside. No matter how much I want to go back to Miaoyan or let Miaoyan beside me, it will be difficult.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but frown even more.

At this moment, the door was pushed open.

When the door creaked and opened, my thoughts were interrupted. I hurriedly looked up and saw that two young girls had walked in from outside, carrying a food box in their hands.

I'm here to deliver food to me.

I couldn't help but frown again.

Although the words I said in front of Pei Yuanxiu before were to remind him not to let Han Ruoshi come to me again, obviously he also understood what I meant and did not let the lady who was in charge of all the affairs of his backyard take charge of my affairs, but these two girls' steps were too lighter. There was no sound in the inner courtyard, and I didn't even hear their footsteps.

Just like the previous Mr. Xie Feng every time he appeared at my door.

As soon as they came in, a wind with a cold rain scent also blew in, shaking the curtain in the middle of the house. Through the gap between the curtains, I saw them put the dishes on the table and looked at the food from a distance. It was not very luxurious, but it was full of homes, which made people feel a little appetite.

After they were placed, they had no intention of greeting me, so they held the food box and prepared to leave.

I quickly turned over and got out of bed: "Wait a minute."

The two girls walked to the door and stopped when they heard me calling them: "Ms. Yan has any more instructions?"

I walked up to them and looked them up and down. When I saw their appearance clearly, my heart couldn't help but feel a slap in my heart.

These two girls are only seventeen or eighteen years old and are very beautiful like flowers. But when they look closely, their beauty seems to be a little different from those they usually see - their noses are high and pointed, their eyes are very deep, and their pupils are lighter. When they look up at me, I feel like I am looking at amber.

This appearance - I am not very familiar with it, but it seems that it is not completely unfamiliar.

I seem to have seen someone with such a look somewhere.

I asked, "Who are you? Why haven't I seen you here?"

She looked at each other, and one of them said, "We were sent by the master to take care of Miss Yan."

"Master? Who are your master?"

They blinked, and I immediately remembered the footwork that they could not even hear when they walked in, and said, "That-Xie Feng, is your master?"

They nodded: "Yes."

“…”

After getting this answer, I calmed down. The two of them looked at each other and asked me: "Ms. Yan has any instructions?"

“…”

"If not, we'll leave."

“…”

After saying that, he turned around and retreated.

The door closed in front of me again.

I stood at the door, listening to the drizzle outside, but still couldn't hear any footsteps, and I felt more and more shocked.

They were actually Xie Feng's apprentices. Although I was not surprised that Pei Yuanxiu would ask his people to take care of me, after all, having such a person could not only prevent me from escaping from Jinling before, but also ensure that I was not harassed by other people. It was indeed a killing of two birds with one stone, but I was still very surprised that they were Xie Feng's apprentices.

This person is indeed not simple.

Although he works under Pei Yuanxiu's command, he obviously has his own power, and to a certain extent, he should not be controlled by Pei Yuanxiu, and even completely separated from Jinling Mansion. Pei Yuanxiu would be assured to let his people come to the inner courtyard to take care of me.

However, the appearance of these two girls-
Chapter completed!
