The bustling street is full of people, today is a bazaar, there are more people than usual, two people walked leisurely on the street, the tall one was dressed in green clothes, his eyebrows were full of tenderness, from time to time he looked at the white-clothed person beside him, and listened carefully to his words.

"Lingering, that one, look at that windmill, it's so big, it's so beautiful. Xi Hao's small body passed through the crowd, and he hurriedly followed, gently pulled his arm and said, "Slow down, there are too many people, I won't be able to find you for a while." ”

"I can find you. Xi Hao smiled and turned to look up at the man, his face was bright, and the glint in his eyes seemed to force the dazzling sunlight back.

"You're so tall and conspicuous, even if there are many people, I can see you at a glance. ”

"That's it?" lingering brows furrowed, and there was obvious displeasure in her tone: "It's just because I'm tall that you can see me at a glance?"

"Naturally!" Xi Hao looked at the man with big clear eyes. What's wrong with him? It seems to be ...... A little displeased? frowned, there was a dazed look in his expression, Xi Hao reached out and pulled the sleeves of his lingering clothes, tilted his head and asked, "What's wrong with you? You don't seem to be very happy? After being bored in Acacia Valley for so long, you finally came out for a walk, why are you unhappy?"

"Stuffy, do you think the two of us are stuffy in Acacia Valley?" The lingering face was even more ugly, and the dark pupils reflected the puzzled face of the man, looking at his still unconscious appearance, he suddenly exhaled and said, "Forget it, let's go." When the two of them reached the old man who sold the windmill, they realized that the windmill was gone.

"It's all my fault, I'll buy it for you next time. Finding that Xi Hao couldn't hide the disappointment between his eyebrows, he comforted him.

"Well, it's nothing, let's go back. Xi Hao suddenly became interested, turned around and walked a few steps, only to realize that lingering did not follow.

"Lingering!"

"I remember there was a little vendor selling windmills at the intersection, and you waited for me here, and I would be back shortly. I didn't want to see the disappointed look of the man, so he gestured to Xi Hao, turned around and walked back, Xi Hao followed a few steps behind, and found that there were too many people, and he couldn't keep up with the lingering footsteps at all.

Suddenly, there was a hint of fear in his heart, the only person he knew in the bustling crowd was gone, and he was suddenly surrounded by strangers, which made his heart pound.

Lingering! lingering-

Holding his hands tightly, sweat gradually wetting his palms, Xi Hao raised his head and looked around, wanting to recall the direction in which the man left, but he panicked and found that he couldn't do it. The people crowded around him became so terrifying in an instant, his past experience had made him not know how to trust strangers, he took a step back in a panic, but had to stop when he bumped into others. Only then did he realize that if he was gone, even if he raised his head, he would not be able to find him at all. Just because he looked at himself all the time, he thought he would always be there, but he didn't know why he was there.

"This son, what's wrong with you?" A man passing by noticed Xi Hao's stunned expression, reached out and grabbed his arm, and asked.

"Don't touch me! I'm fine. Xi Hao's face was pale, his eyes were slightly moist, afraid that his situation would attract attention, he turned around and ran to a small alley next to him, squatted down, hugged his knees tightly, and buried his head between his knees, just to shrink the space so that he was no longer afraid, but he forgot that he couldn't see him when he walked and hid, and he couldn't see him when he came back.

I don't know how long it took, Xi Hao finally settled down, and then he realized the mistake he had made.

The crowd was already very thin, and the sky had darkened, Xi Hao ran out of the alley and looked around the street, but still did not see a lingering figure.

I'm too stupid, how can I hide it so that I can't find it. Where has he gone now? Is he back in Acacia Valley, or is he still looking for himself?

"Lingering, come out, I'm afraid!" choked in his mouth, Xi Hao walked towards the way he remembered. At the beginning of the lanterns, the lanterns outside the doors of each house began to light up, illuminating the gradually quiet streets, making people feel even more lonely and frightened. There seemed to be a sound behind him, Xi Hao turned around suddenly, and found that only his shadow was pulled and projected on the bluestone road, and the feeling that he was suddenly left alone made him feel suffocated, turned around, and with a move of his footsteps, Xi Hao ran in the direction he was sure in his heart, faster and faster, faster and faster, and the silent street responded to his chaotic footsteps, rippling empty.

A terrible cat meow sounded, a black shadow jumped from the ground, swept over Xi Hao's head and jumped onto the eaves, and he retreated without warning, knocking down the bamboo pole erected on the wall, the bamboo pole crackled and fell down the moment, Xi Hao instinctively crossed his hands to protect his head, but unexpectedly no pain hit, and when he heard the sound of the bamboo pole falling to the ground in his ears, he slowly took away his arm.

"You fool!" lingering leaned over and blocked all the bamboo poles with his back, Xi Hao tilted his head and looked at the man in front of him blankly, suddenly his body went limp, and he fell to his knees.

"What's the injury?" "Lingering squatted down, held Xi Hao's face and asked anxiously, seeing that he was just stunned, he suddenly shouted softly: "Why didn't you wait for me in the same place?" Such a big person, is it a three-year-old child, and he will not see it, Zong Xihao, do you know that I am going crazy, you can't let me not find you again and again, I will go crazy - did you hear - did you hear - "

Xi Hao's body was shaken in that person's hands, and finally his eyes moved and he came back to his senses.

Raising his eyes to look at the lingering eyes, tears fell in an uproar, Xi Hao got up and pounced, and crashed into the warm embrace of the man.

"I'm a fool...... I forgot to hide myself, you won't find it, lingering...... I'm so scared, it turns out that I can't find you in the crowd at all...... You must hold my hand in the future, or I will not find you...... I won't be able to find you......"

Feeling the irrepressible trembling, he lowered his head, his lips were imprinted in the man's hair, gently patted his back, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I won't leave you alone, no matter what, I won't leave you alone, no, no, no......"

The tightly snuggled figure was pulled by the flickering lights, and after a long time, he let go of Xi Hao, turned around and squatted down, and said, "Come up, I'll carry you back." ”

Xi Hao lay on his lingering back, attached to the back of his neck with peace of mind, and let him carry himself slowly back.

"Lingering ......"

"Hmm. ”

"Will you carry me for the rest of your life?"

The footsteps paused slightly, lingering without answering, and continued to move forward.

"Am I hated by you?"

The man's slender brows frowned slightly, but he still didn't answer, but he suddenly lifted his breath, jumped up, and ran towards the direction of Acacia Valley at a high speed.

Yue'er hung high, diving into the valley from the waterway, Xi Hao swayed, but gently pushed him away at the moment of stretching out his hand, and then walked towards the small bamboo building without saying a word.

The candle flame flickered, Xi Hao sat at the table stupidly, and went straight back to the room to change clothes after coming back, but he himself sat stupidly for a long time, not moving.

He didn't answer his own words! So, did he really hate himself already?

Slowly lying on the table, Xi Hao felt that his heart was hurting, as if something was piercing, making him want to curl up. Droplets of water dripped from the hair on the table, and dripping from the soaked clothes, gradually wetting the ground under their feet.

It was so cold, it was so cold to the bone, Xi Hao hugged his arms tightly, but he still couldn't suppress the trembling, but he didn't want to move, because he had no strength, so even the strength to go to the side of the bed and wrap himself tightly was gone.

Why don't you speak?!

Yes, he must have been too willful and made him angry.

He always thought that no matter where he was, he could appear beside him like a protective god, but he ignored his feelings, and he must have been very angry the moment he found out that he was missing today.

Zong Xihao, you are really a fool, just a windmill, you are also a child.

A pair of strong arms suddenly picked him up, Xi Hao raised his eyes, looked at the lingering, choked and said softly: "Grandpa is not on Ruoshui Island all the year round, but every time he comes back, he will bring me a windmill, Xi Hao didn't mean it, just because he remembered grandpa when he saw the windmill, lingering, I'm sorry, don't hate me, you don't talk to me, I'm so uncomfortable, I feel like I'm going to be out of breath!"

"You really ...... It's the stupidest little fool in the world. With a sigh, he hugged Xi Hao to the side of the bed and put him down, then stretched out his hand and pulled away his soaked clothes. Xi Hao didn't move, just looked up at the man in front of him, and suddenly his nose was sour, and he burst into tears.

His lingering hands were trembling with tears, his clothes slipped off, and the man's white body glowed faintly in the candlelight. The head avoided slightly, and he turned sideways to pull the quilt, trying to wrap Xi Hao's body, but his hand was grabbed by Xi Hao. Lingering in place, for a long time, turned his head, and slowly looked at Xi Hao.

The man's wet and messy hair, the tears that flowed down his face, and the soft glow of his body all teased his gaze.

"Lingering, if you hate me, just say to me! You ignore me like this, I can't stand it!" Xi Hao's mind was in chaos, and he only saw in his eyes that the man was unwilling to face him at first, so he stretched out his hands and hooked his neck, hoping that he could look at him.

Damn! He didn't even know what he was doing! Linger felt his heart slammed, and the man's body was glowing with medicinal incense, and for a moment he lost his mind.

"Damn!

"So, you'really—"

Without hesitation, his lips covered the man's cold lips, and he stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around Xi Hao's body, punishing the person who had been chattering and hurting him. Xi Hao's eyes widened, his breathing became disordered for a moment, and he wanted to back down, but he found that his lingering hands were tightly clasped around his waist, and as his footsteps retreated, his back was tightly pressed against the bed rail by the man.

As if his heart was about to jump out, Xi Hao was a little at a loss, and the rosemary on his body lingered in his nose, making him addicted, different from the gentleness of the past, lingering seemed to be eager to prove something at the moment, so the kiss became more and more domineering, making him feel unable to breathe between tossing and turning. His mind gradually blurred, and when Xi Hao felt that he was about to suffocate, he let go of his lips, lowered his head, and sobbed down his jaw, and then he realized that he was completely dressed and held in his arms by this person. There was a strange feeling in his body, he suddenly felt very scared, and even more panicked, his body shrank and wanted to escape, the man buried in his arms finally snorted dissatisfiedly, and said: "I have been trying to restrain myself, but you have made me unbearable, Xi Hao, don't escape, don't run away." ”

If you don't run away, I'll die!

There was only one thought that flashed through Xi Hao's mind, because he found that his body seemed to be ignited by that person, and every inch of skin kissed by his lingering lips was so hot that he couldn't stand it.

"Lingering, I seem to be sick, I'm so hot, I can't breathe......" Xi Hao began to push the man with his hand, and lingering finally raised his head after hearing his words, and there was a wild breath in his usually very warm eyes, and the aggressive momentum captured Xi Hao's mind in an instant, making his mouth dry and more unbearable.

"If you're not hot, I'm too incompetent. The deep voice tossed in his ears, and the man touched Xi Hao's soft earlobe for a while, making him feel dizzy.

"Lingering...... It's weird that we're like that...... You...... You let me ...... Hmm...... "You told me to get dressed first."

The words could not be said in his mouth, because the man had picked him up and put him between the beds at this moment, and as soon as he curled up, Xi Hao grabbed the quilt and wrapped himself tightly, rolled all the way to the innermost part of the bed, and then buried his head in the quilt and refused to come out again.

Lingering is wrong today, he is different today than usual! This feels so strange, I can't stand it anymore.

"Xi Hao!" The man was calling in dissatisfaction, but Xi Hao rolled up and made up his mind not to compromise.

felt lingering on the bed, and then pulled himself and the quilt into his arms, Xi Hao's heart was pounding, even through the quilt, he felt the hot breath of the person.

"I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep, you go. ”

"Come out and talk to me. Xi Hao wrapped himself in the quilt for a while, and found that the air could not be convection, which was really uncomfortable, so he carefully opened a corner, but only for a moment, the corner was uncovered.

Lingering turned over and pressed against the quilt, fixed Xi Hao's face with both hands, looked at him extremely strictly, and said, "Are you going to talk to me about those bastard words in the future?"

"What's the matter?" Xi Hao looked at Lingering with an innocent face, seeing that he was at a loss, lingering eyes closed, and felt a sense of disgust and depression in his heart.

I'll bear it! This idiot has made a lot of trouble, and it's not the first day I know he's stupid.

Taking a deep breath, lingering opened his eyes, and said to Xi Hao extremely seriously: "Zong Xihao, listen well, I only love you in this life, from now on, you are not allowed to ask me any questions about love or not love or hate, because I will not answer these questions from now on, if you dare to do it again-" Lingering paused, and suddenly smiled at Xi Hao, Xi Hao's scalp suddenly became numb, and his body became stiff.

"I'm going to pick up on what I didn't finish tonight, do you want to try it? ”

"Don't-" Xi Hao responded, seeing that the man's eyes suddenly showed a look of disappointment, and a feeling of indescribable inexplicability surged in his heart, eager to explain, but he didn't know what to say, and immediately stammered: "I mean...... I mean......"

"Xi Hao ......"

"Hmmm......"

"I'm sleepy. ”

"Then go to sleep. He breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hmm. Lingering replied in a low voice.

Feeling that the quilt was lifted by the man, Xi Hao couldn't help but scream: "Don't you have a room of your own? Why do you want to sleep with me?"

"You said, let me sleep. Lingering closed his eyes, but his hand stretched out to grab Xi Hao's body, Xi Hao was startled, Huo Ran sat up and went to get the clothes placed at the head of the bed, lingering still closed his eyes, neither spoke nor moved, and after he was dressed, he reached out and patted the position next to him, and said, "Come and sleep." ”

Xi Hao sat stunned for a long time, and found that he had his eyes closed, his breathing was soft, and he seemed to have really fallen asleep, so he slowly leaned down, looked at him carefully, and then reached out and pinched his face, but the man suddenly stretched out his hands and pulled him into his arms and hugged him tightly, Xi Hao was suddenly embarrassed and his face was flushed.

"Don't move, let me hold you, if you move again, I can't guarantee that I can still be such a gentleman. ”

His body stiffened, Xi Hao stopped struggling, his cheek was against the man's chest, listening to the rhythmic heartbeat, and gradually closed his eyes with peace of mind.

It's so warm, and the lingering embrace makes people not want to stay away.

Feeling that the person in his arms fell asleep peacefully, his lingering eyes opened, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, revealing a smile like a wolf with a big tail.

Little fool, look at how you will escape from me in the future! Your stupid head that doesn't open your mind really has to take your time subtly, so let's start with this bed sharing! With a strong love in his eyes, he stretched out his hand and pinched the tip of the person's delicate nose, and said softly: "I will love you for the rest of my life!"

――――――――――――――

"Do you want to sleep first?" Xian Yi put the teacup on the table, looked back at the courtyard, and said: "The little marquis seems to be going back late tonight, and the son must be tired after a busy day in the embroidery village during the day." ”

"It's okay, go put the pen and ink on it, I haven't picked up a pen for a long time, so I'll draw to pass the time today." Flawless took a sip of tea, raised his eyes and looked at the courtyard door, Bai Yan had not come back yet, someone suddenly came to the barracks in the afternoon, did something happen?

Feeling a little uneasy, Flawless went to the table, Xian Yi had already arranged the pen and ink neatly, Flawless picked up the pen for a while, and then began to paint slowly.

There was a sudden sound in the courtyard, and the flawless eyes moved, listened carefully, and then sneered in his mouth: "We are small families in Taole Xuan, if you want to rob the silver taels, you might as well go out and find another home." ”

"Hmph, it's you who is looking for, dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head, it's really impatient, the so-called wronged debtor has the owner, we were sent by the second young master of Long to take your life, if you turn into a ghost to take revenge, you must find the right person, we are just using people's money to eliminate disasters for others." ”

Hearing this, Wufang smiled slightly, his pen and ink did not stop, and he said softly: "I'll talk about it when you can kill you." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a muffled snort outside, and even from a few feet away, the click of bones could still be clearly heard.

"Bow, don't be too heavy, let them go back and lie down for more than a month. ”

Flawless eyebrows indifferently, still slowly drawing, deaf to the screams outside the door, and those people outside the door after hearing what he said, they all rolled and crawled out, Xian Yi pursed his lips and smiled, so don't be too heavy, Childe's small temperament is really getting more and more amazing.

It couldn't be called a battle, because the ruffians were just people who flaunted their might on the streets to collect money and oppress, but after this incident, Flawless became interested in the dragon family. The Long family is quite powerful in the local area, and there is the support of the Xiangguo Mansion behind them, but they are indeed a person to be reckoned with, but they have repeatedly provoked Sichuan Shu Embroidery Village, is there any ulterior motive?

"Gong, go and find out the distribution of all the forces of the Long family in Lin'an, including their business contacts and their connections, if they can get along with us without incident......" Wufang paused, looked up at the bright moonlight, and said softly: "If people dare to deceive me and offend me repeatedly, I will kill them and never retreat." ”
