"Any paper is fine, as long as it's written?" asked Yuexiang in surprise.

The little father-in-law in front of him looked very faced, and came to buy a piece of waste paper written by the concubine with her. Yuexiang hesitated, although she was happy, she was not dizzy yet. But no matter how you ask, the little father-in-law just doesn't say the reason. If you don't say it, don't say it, and there's nothing wrong with taking a piece of waste paper.

"Is it enough? "Do you want more?" It's better to buy them all, when they were punished by the king, the side concubine didn't copy the book, and now they are all thrown in the dust.

"Enough is enough. After paying, the little father-in-law ran away.

"Strange people. Yuexiang looked at his back and weighed the silver with a smile. It's really generous, I don't know who is so generous.

Lei Yao took the things, rewarded him, and left in a hurry to go back to the mansion.

He couldn't wait to open it, exactly the same handwriting. Speculation comes true. He looked and looked at it in disbelief. There is no doubt that the note was written by Xiyan. Disorganized thoughts. I can't find a plausible explanation at all. The truth. It's like a hazy weather, and it's hard to figure it out.

Late at night.

"Have you thought about my words?" she seemed to be in a better mood when she returned that day. Yan Tianmu had already found out where she had gone and what she had done, and she was jealous of that young man. Why wasn't he the one who made her happy? So, he was more desperate to continue his plans, at least, he wanted a child.

Xiyan sat with his knees crossed, and the long day passed. She was a little haggard, especially in her eyes, which had the color of vicissitudes. Her heart was tormented, and the blow that Chao Yan brought to her almost broke her will, as if in an instant, everything she had insisted on believing had become a joke. So didn't she just be a clown, entertain everyone, and lose herself?

"Three days, wait three more days, and I'll give you the answer. Now, just begging him to get out quickly, she no longer had the strength to force a smile or a-for-tat in front of him. She looked up at Yan Tianmu, a man who likes to look at her condescendingly, his love may be the sense of accomplishment of conquest. She pleaded wearily, like a cat drenched in the rainstorm, desperately trying to hide and lick the water dry.

"Good. I'll wait for you. Yan Tianmu stretched out his hand and slashed from her eyebrows to her neck. Then, turn around and leave.

Outside the window was a silent drizzle. Yan Tianmu closed the door and looked back again. Although many times, he knew that she was just acting in front of him, pretending to be happy, pretending to be coquettish, and pretending to care about him, but he couldn't let go, and in her, he gave so much affection that he couldn't love another person anymore. So be it. He smiled wryly.

Even if she covered her face, she would not mistake those eyes, eyes that exuded a gentle, calm color, and eyes that were always habitually slightly downward. Xiyan got out of bed, walked to the table, and blew out the candle.

"Sit?" she said, settling down at the table.

Her reaction was beyond his expectations. He was stunned, and by the faint light of the lantern outside the door, he sat down across from her. The night rain continued, like a heart that could never be spoken.

"It's so dark, you don't have to cover your face. Xiyan said softly.

"I'm not afraid you'll see it. Lei Yao reached out and ripped off the black mask. In the faint light, he could faintly see her silhouette.

"What's the matter with me?" asked Xiyan. The lines on his face are hard, but his temperament is modest and gentle, like a contradiction in his character.

He thought, what to say. It's hard to speak. He wanted an answer, not for the answer itself, but for the sake of wondering if it was his feelings that were wrong.

"Did we ever know each other?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Because the first time I saw you, I felt an unusual sense of familiarity, as if I knew each other. Lei Yao said calmly.

"Maybe it's because there are always some similar things in the sisters' bodies, so I feel this way. She tilted her head sideways, looking out of the dark window, and on a rainy day, there was always an indescribable melancholy taste.

"Is that so?" he asked her, and himself.

"Maybe it's a bit presumptuous for me to ask like this," he paused, "How did you convince Yan Tianmu to help me?" He knew the relationship between them too well, how could he help himself for no reason? Who would cultivate an opponent for himself? Lei Yao repeatedly thought about what she said when she left that day, and then thought about it, it was her, and she could only persuade Yan Tianmu.

"Important?" she said unconcernedly. "It's enough to have good results now. ”

"What's important to you? It doesn't matter if you take such a big risk to save me, and it doesn't matter if you find my opponent to save me. Lei Yao chuckled. "I'm listening. ”

"If you're here to ask that, I don't have much to say. Xiyan fiddled with the small beads on her clothes and said coldly.

"Well, there's one more thing. Lei Yao stopped, "I saw a notebook you recorded, on which was the matter between me and Chaoyan. Now, I want to know, how can you record it so clearly, as if you're there, and that's simply not possible. Don't tell me it's Chaoyan narrating to you, I don't think any woman would fake someone else to record her feelings. I really can't figure it out, please give me an answer. His gaze was also compelling in the dark.

Xiyan's body shook. How could he see that book? How could he know that he had written it? As if hearing her silent doubts, Lei Yao did not hide it: "I found it by accident, and I also found someone to find the words you wrote to compare." ”

"I thought of many explanations, but none of them convinced me. Lei Yao said self-deprecatingly, "Maybe I'm too unimaginative." My relationship with my wife was written by a third person, who happened to be my sister-in-law whom I had never met before. ”

"What can you do if you hear the answer?" asked Xi Yan, facing him. Can it be restarted, or can it be retracked?

"Xiyan. Lei Yao's voice was low, "There really is something I don't know about, right?" As soon as her words came out, he knew that his guess was not without reason. She wouldn't explain, or maybe she couldn't explain it at all.

"You must know me, but I don't know you. Lei Yao muttered dreamily. "What went wrong? You not only know me, you know me well. He connected every point related to her, and after thinking about it repeatedly, he found that she was familiar with him, even better than Chao Yan. She hides it, but she still reveals it inadvertently. Even when he came in just now, he covered his face, but she looked into his eyes without panic, clearly saying that I knew it was you.

Xiyan was silent. Love and pain will be lost to the years, so isn't it best to pass like this?

"Say something. Lei Yao had mixed feelings.

"Do you love my sister?" asked Yuyan.

"Love. ”

"Do you love her now or the her she used to be?" asked Xi Yan again.

Lei Yao was a little confused, and he looked at Xiyan inquiringly.

"Say yes. Xiyan urged.

The years of the past and the days of the present were intertwined, going back and forth in his mind. Tracing back to the source, what is pinned on the back of the person who goes resolutely every time is his initial expectations and feelings, "Without her in the past, I wouldn't fall in love with her now." ”

"Understood. Xiyan bit her upper lip, "Anyway, now she is in love." Since it's love, don't ask about the past, after all, the present is the real touch. ”

"What did you do?" Lei Yao stared into her eyes that were still bright in the night, and he wanted to find an answer from them. "Tell me, what did you do?"

Xiyan lowered her eyes. "I'm sorry. ”

"I'm sorry what? you tell me?" Lei Yao's body tensed, and his heart tensed.

"I thought it was funny and forced my sister to tell it to me, and then I wrote it down. Her eyes flickered, and he couldn't see.

"Then why is it in her hands?" Lei Yao gritted his teeth, no matter how peaceful he was, he couldn't accept a completely unreasonable reason.

"Lord Wang. Xiyan calmed down, "Don't ask again." I don't have much to say. You don't have to speculate. My sister loves you very much, she has delicate feelings, don't break her heart. ”

"No matter how I listen to it, I feel that there is a taste of willingness in your tone, what is there that needs you to fulfill?" Lei Yao pressed step by step. She didn't say anything, but this didn't say anything, which only shook him even more. The closer he got to her, the stronger the familiarity, and he always had the urge to catch her, but even he didn't know where this urge came from.

"Alright. Xi Yan rubbed her head a little painfully, "For the person you love, do you only tell by their appearance? If so, then what difference does it make who it is?"

"What do you mean?"

"It means that your love is no more than Erer, what is the need to ask?" Xiyan said in a mocking tone: "If you want to ask, you also have to ask yourself, whether you have ever paid sincerely." Why don't you even know who you love? ”

"Because," Lei Yao struggled, how could he say it, tell him that he found that he was moved by her, he didn't say it, he couldn't say it. If it weren't for the darkness of the night, maybe she could understand what he couldn't say.

"You go, it's not good to be discovered. Xiyan said. They can't continue on this topic, it should be a secret to everyone.

"Good. Lei Yao understood that she didn't want to say more, and even if she asked again, she wouldn't have any answers. However, her later words vaguely reminded him, looks, looks.

Chao Yan leaned against the door, the wind and chill of the drizzle were cold to her bones, and she didn't feel it at all. When he got up and went out, she stood here waiting. Where did he go? He won't get the answers he wants. Her heart hurts. He kept asking the answer to the mystery, just wondering, or did he have something else in mind? Was her love not enough to satisfy him, was it true that everything she was anxious about guarding would eventually disappear?

Lei Yao walked to the door and raised his eyes to see Chao Yan looking at him sadly. His heart fluttered. He didn't say a word, just reached out and hugged her into his arms.

Xiyan has been sitting there since Lei Yao left.
