Without waiting for Shangguan to answer, Luo Dongting said the task assigned to him by his mother in one breath.

"If this Zhao Zhigang really conspired with Yun Yi to frame the old family master and frame the brothers in the villa, including my father, Qing Miao, how should you deal with Zhao Xiaorou?"

Luo Dongting said in his heart: 'Mother...... You always told me the task, and I completed it! As for how he answers, how he acts, it's not up to me. Anyway, what you told me to say, I said. Well! ’

Asked the question, and completed the task, an indescribable sense of relief suddenly rose from Luo Dongting's heart, and at this time, he realized that his palms were already sweaty, and his underwear seemed to be stuck to the back of his back.

"I know there's a reason why you're bringing it up again, it turns out that the crux of the matter is-"

The tone sank, elongated the end note, Shangguan glanced at Luo Dongting, and then sank into the Taishi chair and leaned on the back of the chair. He closed his eyes, the four fingers of his left hand on the armrest moved, and the slender bony fingers tapped the armrest slowly, and the sun shone on his fingertips, setting off the faint brilliance on his nail surface.

For a long time, except for the rustling of ginkgo leaves in the courtyard, there was no other movement, and even Shangguan's action of tapping the handle of the chair slowed down, and finally only the index finger silently tapped the armrest of the Taishi chair. Of course, Luo Dongting could still smell the fragrance of golden osmanthus flowers that penetrated in the wind from the gate of the courtyard from time to time, but he couldn't smell any other breath of the person who was immersed in the Taishi chair.

Was he thinking about how to answer?

Luo Dongting, who was cautiously staring at Shangguan's expression, was still waiting for the man's answer, and after waiting for about a cup of tea, he finally waited for the man's ...... Rhetorical question:

"Do you know why I had to save her life in the first place?"

Luo Dongting frowned, and replied thoughtfully: "Because she is your pawn?" Holding her is equivalent to holding the handle of the Yun family, so that at the critical moment, she will threaten Yun Yi? ”

"I thought the same at first, but ......" He stopped his movements and slowly opened his eyes, a pair of dark eyes, revealing the regret and pain left to him by the past.

"But at the moment when she blew up her meridians, looking at her coveted appearance, I remembered her."

As for this, Shangguan Qingmiao put down Erlang's legs, he leaned down, his elbows on his legs, and buried his face deep in his palms.

Luo Dongting suddenly realized that the two "shes" in his mouth were not the same person!

After so many years, he still used the word "she" to carry the man, yes...... Don't have the courage to face it? Still is...... Can't bear to mention it?

"By the way, why did Miss Zhao blow up her meridians that day? I never had a chance to ask you. Luo Dongting suddenly remembered the day Zhao Xiaorou had an accident, did he have anything to do with Shangguan?

Somehow, he didn't wait for Shangguan's answer, but his thoughts were abducted by Shangguan.

Taking a deep breath, the moment Shangguan's face withdrew from his palm, the corners of his red eyes were slightly moist, his chin rested on the back of his staggered hands, and his two thumbs against his chin, he looked straight ahead with a slight stunned, this kind of expression almost never appeared on Ling Yun Gongzi's face.

The originally shrewd and deep pair of phoenix eyes were now shrouded in a touch of lost emotion, and at the same time, a hazy feeling like a foggy mountain was derived; The handsome face of the sculpture also took off the coldness and harshness, and replaced it with regret, regret, and pity, which made the man in front of him like a fairy faint and indifferent softness.

In a low tone, he abandoned the previous blandness, and he replied to Dong Ting: "The reason why she blew up the meridians that day may be because of the blow, or maybe—because of my words." ”

Being abandoned by Yun Feiyang was the cause of Xiaorou's trauma, but Shangguan's words became the key to her choosing death.

How useful is a word, a sentence?

A word from a doctor can give the patient hope of life; A word from the presiding judge can make the prisoner see the color of death; A word from the teacher can make the student discover the road under his feet; A word between lovers can make them stay together for a lifetime.

Yun Feiyang used the sentence "The love of brother and sister is difficult to be the admiration of a couple", cutting off his relationship with Zhao Xiaorou.

Zhao Xiaorou used the sentence "When is the time for retribution", so that Lingyun Gongzi, who was blinded by revenge, reflected on his heart.

And Shangguan Qingmiao once said a word, but he took the life of the most important woman in the world!

Listening to Shangguan's narration of Xiaorou's search for a short sight that day, Dong Ting's heart trembled, how similar it was - how similar it was to the events of that year!

"Because of my phrase 'let others slaughter', she looked for a short time, and at that time, my first instinct was that I couldn't let her die no matter what. I missed it once, and I can't miss it a second time. ”

Luo Dongting understood, why Shangguan would do his best to save Xiaorou, just because he didn't want the tragedy to happen again, he regretted the incident back then, he blamed himself for a long time, he hated himself for not being calm, so that he was sick and tired for most of the year afterwards, if it wasn't for the revenge that needed him to cheer up, I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to get out of the haze so far, so he didn't want to let himself regret it a second time.

Luo Dongting recalled his temptation to Shangguan that day, and he only said that he couldn't save Xiaorou and left Xiaorou from Wushan and let her complete the task of the chess piece. Shangguan scarlet his eyes and vowed to burn his own medicine house, and said that he couldn't cure her, so he taught himself to get out of Lingyun Palace.

It turns out that all of this is because he can't let go of the past in his heart?

But according to his own observations and the changes he has made these days, Luo Dongting thinks that Shangguan still has a little thought about this girl.

What if the inability to let go of the past at the beginning evolves into an unwillingness to let go of someone in the future?

"Anyway...... This Zhao Xiaorou ...... after all is Yun Yi's righteous daughter, even if her father was not involved in the events of the year, he can't figure out her relationship with the Yun family. Qing Miao, if she has no use value, then after she recovers...... There should be no need to stay here. ”

Dong Ting used an affirmative tone, but there was still a hint of uncertainty in his understanding.

Like a dozing dragon, he heard the sound of the outside world trying to get close to him, and resolutely woke up. Shangguan turned his eyes to look at Luo Dongting, and a pair of phoenix eyes regained their clarity, still bottomless black.

looked at him fixedly for a few breaths, and almost looked at Luo Dongting, a seven-foot man, with that person's indifferent expression, so that Luo Dongting couldn't guess what he was thinking, just when he just wanted to change the topic, Shangguan seemed to be smiling, and said slowly:

"With her now, when do you think she'll be okay?"

Then, his deep black eyes moved away from Dong Ting, lifted his robe, and left a sentence:

"Your duty is to heal her, and as for what happens after she is healed, wait until she is healed."

The man walked out of Zhong Lingyuxiu's courtyard gate like this, Luo Dongting looked at his upright and pine-like back, unpredictable, that back seemed to leave many questions for himself:

Did he think about what would happen after Zhao Xiaorou recovered?

Did he think about how to place her?

Did he think about how to explain to her when she came to her senses that they were entangled and complicated with each other?

Does he like the girl or not? If he really has affection for Zhao Xiaorou, if Zhao Zhigang really participated in the murder of the old family owner back then, how should he face it?
