Because his foot was still injured, there might be thieves waiting at home, and Xie Ling simply responded to the invitation of Master Hua Ruling to live in Huafu with Xie Xing.

She was a little embarrassed, but later learned that Hua Manlou and Xie Xing Lu Xiaofeng were very close to each other, and when she made friends that made Hua Ruling very pleased, she also accepted this kindness with kindness.

What she didn't expect was that Chu Liuxiang actually stayed, and watched her in her room after dinner.

The ankle that has been fixed is no longer as painful as before, but Xie Ling still doesn't have the courage to walk on the ground, and then think about it, this person has seen his aunt in pain, so he simply let go of himself, leaned on the bed, his hair was scattered and he didn't bother to tidy it up, tilted his head and asked him, "Why is Xiangshuai here?" ”

"Naturally, it's to see how Miss Xie is." Chu Liuxiang glanced at the handkerchief she put on the head of the bed, and smiled, "Today's matter, in the end, I was careless, I'm sorry Miss Xie." ”

"Don't." She waved her hand, "Without Xiangshuai, I would have been arrested, and I am not a person who will take revenge." ”

"That's not what I meant." Chu Liuxiang paused, "I promised Ah Xing to protect you well, but-"

As soon as he said this, Xie Ling remembered what Xie Xing shouted before going to sleep, "Master lied to me!" He burst out laughing for a while, "It's really nothing, I was ready to fall to death in that situation." ”

"I didn't know that Miss Xie was afraid of heights." Chu Liuxiang actually didn't know what she was laughing at, but seeing her bend a pair of water-cut eyes, and a seemingly nonexistent red glow flew on her face, it was really much cuter than when she cried, and she stared at it unconsciously for a while before retracting her senses.

Xie Ling was stared at by him and thought that he had been accused by Xie Xing, so he waved his hand again and said, "Ah Xing, he just don't pay attention to your nonsense." ”

"What nonsense?"

She was stunned for a moment, and then changed her words, "It's nothing, I want to say Xiangshuai, how did you think about it?" ”

"Miss Xie and Ah Xing are in such a dangerous situation now, why don't you put this matter aside tonight?" Chu Liuxiang touched her nose and asked tentatively, "What does Miss Xie think?" ”

Xie Ling accepted his favor, and he saved his life, so naturally it was not good to shake his head and say no, not to mention that what Chu Liuxiang said was just to put it aside for the time being, not to mention it again.

"Okay." She nodded.

"Then Miss Xie, have a good rest." He smiled with satisfaction, walked over to her bed, and tucked the quilt for her, "I won't bother Miss Xie." ”

Since the death of his parents, Xie Ling has tasted the taste of someone helping to fold the quilt for the first time, and his mood is a little complicated, and when he raised his eyes, he met his smiling eyes, that is, when he was so close, Xie Ling finally took a closer look at this person again.

I have to say that Chu Liuxiang at the first time was like two people because of the relationship between the wind and the dust, compared to the current looks.

"Don't worry about the case." Chu Liuxiang said again, "Sleep." ”

I don't know if it's because the atmosphere of Fang Cai is a rare harmony since the two of them met, Xie Ling actually bowed his head obediently, and then turned his head and closed his eyes.

Breathing also stabilizes.

Chu Liuxiang stared at the sleeping face in front of her, slightly hooked the corners of her lips, as if carelessly and carefully dialing her somewhat messy forehead, and then closed the door and went out.

When Xie Ling woke up early the next morning, she was worried for a while, she was afraid that she couldn't go to the hospital in this state, and she remembered after washing up with difficulty, even if there was nothing wrong with her feet, it was not okay for her to go out.

Thinking of this, she was relieved.

Xie Xing is the same, it's not good to go to the private school again, Hua Ruling made the decision and asked him to follow the master of Hua Manlou to listen for a few days, which made Xie Ling thank you for a thousand years, and of course made Xie Xing wail in pain for a long time.

"Something so big happened, we can't even go home, I still have to study! Oh my God! I'm so miserable! ”

Hua Manlou comforted him: "My master is very good. ”

“…… Of course, it's good to be a student like you. ”

Facing me, he probably wanted to kill me, he thought desperately.

But no matter how much he wailed, when it was time, he was still taken to class by Hua Manlou at Xie Ling's strong request.

Xie Ling was idle alone, although the wealthy Hua family borrowed her wheelchair, she didn't have the strength to move around, so she simply sat down in the garden of Huafu.

The cold has arrived, and the flowers and trees in this Jiangnan garden are also withering badly, but there is a plum tree that blooms just right, which looks to be some years old, and the refreshing fragrance comes with the wind.

It's a bit like the breath I smelled on Chu Liuxiang last night.

She counted the flowers on the branches in a bored manner, and after counting them five times, she noticed that two figures had stood for a long time under the porch diagonally opposite.

The Hua family is wealthy, and this garden alone is very big, and from such a distance, Xie Ling can't see the faces of the two people clearly, but judging from the clothes, he also knows that it is Chu Liuxiang and cold-blooded.

It was probably there to discuss how to solve the case, she thought.

After a while, they seemed to have finished discussing, Chu Liuxiang walked through the corridor and crossed a horizontal white jade bridge, just as the wind was blowing, Xie Ling sat there and tilted his head, shrunk his upper body, and considered whether to simply go back to the room.

But Chu Liuxiang was only a few feet away from her, and she could only continue to sit and watch him come forward step by step.

"Miss Xie is enjoying the flowers?"

Xie Ling saw him sit down on the stone bench next to him unceremoniously, raised his hand and poured himself a cup of tea to drink, and opened his mouth to stop, "The water is cold." ”

"It doesn't matter." Chu Liuxiang still drank it.

Xie Ling was also very useless, no longer entangled, and asked him, "Is Xiang Shuai Fang discussing this case with Lord Leng?" ”

Chu Liuxiang shook his head, "Not really. ”

“……？”

"I also asked two sentences about the Shenhou Mansion that Miss Xie said." He stared at her unnatural expression, and changed his words, "It's a pity that Lord Leng doesn't want to say more." ”

Xie Ling shrugged, "I don't know much. ”

Chu Liuxiang didn't ask her, and sat there and poured herself another cup of tea that had been cold, "But I want to ask Miss Xie a question, which has nothing to do with this." ”

Xie Ling: "What? ”

"Miss Xie still insists on not letting Ah Xing learn martial arts?" The doubts between his eyebrows did not seem to be fake, "If the case cannot be resolved in the short term." ”

Xie Ling got stuck.

To be honest, she hadn't thought about this hypothesis, but every time she thought about it, she would always comfort herself, now that she was cold-blooded and Chu Liuxiang working together to deal with this case, there would be no problem, and when it was resolved, she and Xie Xing would be able to resume their previous lives.

But since she was able to trust Chu Liuxiang in the matter of the case, why couldn't she believe it in ensuring Xie Xing's safety after accepting Xie Xing as an apprentice.

What's more, with yesterday's situation, if Xie Xing didn't have a little kung fu foundation, he was afraid that he would not be so lucky to escape into the Huafu mansion.

"I don't mean to repay the favor, I'm just starting from Miss Xie's mood and thinking about it." Chu Liuxiang said very sincerely, "It's true that his talent is so high that I am reluctant to let go, but with a little martial arts, whether it is for him or Miss Xie, there is no harm in it." ”

Xie Ling wanted to shake his head, but opened his mouth several times at his serious face, and finally hung his head without saying anything.

Chu Liuxiang continued: "I've been thinking about it seriously these days, what Miss Xie is most worried about is whether he, as my apprentice, will be troubled by my enemies, right?" ”

Xie Ling almost blurted out how would you know, but when he thought that he was Chu Liuxiang, and felt that such insight into people's hearts was also within common sense, he only pursed his lips, which can be regarded as a default.

"If Miss Xie is worried about this, you can rest assured." Chu Liuxiang said, "I asked him, he didn't even have time to sue Lu Xiaofeng and Zhu Zhu, and I didn't tell anyone else, even Master Hua only thought that I was investigating this case, so I helped you out, knowing that he was my apprentice, and so far it was only you and me and him." ”

“…… Hua Manlou also knows. ”

Xie Ling still remembered Xie Xing's accusation against Chu Liuxiang last night when he watched the doctor treat her ankle.

The maid of the Hua family and the doctor may not know that he is talking about Chu Liuxiang, but Hua Manlou must be clear.

"His words don't hurt." Chu Liuxiang suddenly laughed, "To be honest, this little playboy really surprised me. ”

Xie Ling was puzzled and looked at him suspiciously, "...... Because of eye disease? ”

"I also knew a man with an eye disease, who also lost his sight after an illness, and since then his ears are much better than ordinary people." Chu Liuxiang's expression was very complicated, "Although that illness did not hinder his martial arts talent, he is still an amazing and brilliant character, but he is not satisfied, maybe he thinks that it would be better if he didn't have that illness, and as a result, he has been trapped for the rest of his life." ”

Although he said it was plain and light, Xie Ling somehow heard some pity.

However, the same experience does not mean anything, at least from her two contacts with Hua Manlou, she can be sure that this seven-year-old child really has only tolerance and light in his heart.

"It's never like that." Xie Ling said very firmly.

"yes." Chu Liuxiang agreed, "So if it's this little dandy, I believe he won't reveal it to others." ”

Xie Ling didn't expect him to go around again, but she did think that Chu Liuxiang was right.

"What's more, Ah Xing knows that Miss Xie, you hope that he can gain fame in the exam, and he will definitely continue to study and learn some martial arts, which is not contradictory to reading."

"Xiang Shuai is really eloquent." Xie Ling sighed, "Actually, with Xiangshuai's kung fu, it's not impossible to continue teaching him unconsciously?" ”

"But I don't want to lie to girls." Chu Liuxiang put down the white jade blue and white teacup in her hand, and her tone was a little playful, "And it's such a beautiful girl." ”

Xie Ling was choked speechless by this sentence, so he could only turn his head away and stop looking at him.

Eyes don't make contact, but ears can still hear him.

"I'm just telling the truth," he said. ”
