Chapter 017: Sleepless Night

The clouds slowly turned from blood red to purple, and the sunlight reflected clearly in the place, but in the end, the heavens and the earth still did not retain this beautiful moment, and the earth gradually darkened.

The lights in Youhan City were brilliant, and Duan Chen rode the flames to slow down and slowly walked towards the city.

When they arrived at the place where they lived, the shopkeeper seemed to recognize Duan Chen, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Hey, guest officer, you're back, come and I'll lead the horse for you." With that, the man had already reached the flame's side, but he didn't see the reins of the horse for a week, and scratched his head in confusion.

Duan Chen jumped off the back of the flame, and immediately felt a little funny when he saw the shopkeeper's expression like this. Explained: "This is not a horse, but a psychic fairy beast without a horse rein. โ€

Blaze didn't look at the shopkeeper since then, and his arrogant expression was even clear to the shopkeeper.

Duan Chen only then remembered where this flame should go, did he want it to go to the stable, and just as he was hesitating, the flame rubbed Duan Chen's arm with his head, neighed softly, and then turned into a red afterimage, and disappeared at the end of the street.

Duan Chen wanted to stop it, but he thought to himself, could it be that Flame didn't want to go back with him at all, but just sent him back to the city. Wan Er smiled, slightly frustrated in his heart, and buried his head in the store.

In his room, Duan Chen opened the door, and three pairs of eyes looked at him in unison.

"Where have you been, don't you know that we are worried about you? It's getting dark now, and if you have something going on outside, how will we explain it to the master when we go back? Duan Chen felt guilty in his heart when he saw Long Xin's harsh words, this was the first time his second senior sister had spoken to him in such a stern tone!

Duan Chen explained: "I saw that the fight was boring and I went out alone, I'm so old, why do you still worry so much." โ€

"Yes!" Long Nian said in a stern tone: "You are so old, why do you still let us worry so much, this world is vicious, people's hearts are unpredictable, you went out alone for the first time out of the mountain, how can we rest assured, even if you want to go anywhere, you have to inform us." โ€

"Oh!" Duan Chen knew that what he had done was wrong, so he no longer refuted, and said honestly: "Okay, I know." โ€

"Chen'er!" Long Xi couldn't bear to see Duan Chen being criticized so harshly. Concerned asked, "Have you eaten?" โ€

When Duan Chen heard Long Xi talk about it, he felt hungry in his stomach, and said shyly: "Senior brother and second senior sister, I'm hungry!" โ€

Duan Chen has been like this since he was a child, as long as his second senior sister is angry, as long as he is a little coquettish, Long Xin's anger will dissipate, and when Long Xin heard Duan Chen say that he was hungry, he immediately changed his attitude. said: "The meal has already been prepared for you, we have been waiting for you for I don't know how long, let's eat together, don't do this in the future!" โ€

"Yes!" Duan Chen hurriedly agreed, hurriedly sat down at the table they were sitting on, scooped up his chopsticks, and immediately stretched out to the dishes that had not been touched, these dishes were Duan Chen's favorite food.

Long Xi stretched out his hand to stop Duan Chen's movements. Reprimanded: "We haven't eaten yet, we're all waiting for you alone." โ€

Duan Chen smirked, and an inexplicable feeling rose in his heart, this is moving, very subtle but too big to be moved.

After the meal was eaten, Long Xi hurriedly winked at Duan Chen, and Duan Chen immediately understood that this was Long Xi's 'ventilating message' to him! Knowing that after the meal, Long Nian and Long Xin would also reprimand Duan Chen.

Duan Chen hurriedly made a sleepy state. Said: "Senior brother and second senior sister! I'm so tired today, I'm going to rest, you talk slowly. โ€

"Stop!" Duan Chen was brought up by Long Nian, how could he not know what he was thinking. Hearing him say this, you know that he is trying to escape the prosecution of him today. Then he said, "It's not too late to tell us where you've been." โ€

Duan Chen secretly complained in his heart. Said helplessly: "Today I went to the grassland and met the daughter of the head of the Hanchen faction, and she also gave me a painting!" Oh! By the way, there is also a fairy beast. But the fairy beast sent me back and went back again. โ€

Long Nian frowned and said, "The daughter of the head of Hanchen!" How old is she? And how did you know her? How could she send you a painting for no reason? There is also the immortal beast that Hanchen values the most, and why would others give it to you. "Of course, thinking about things at this Long Nian's age is much more mature than Duan Chen, not like Duan Chen, seeing that everything is pure, and not thinking deeply, this is actually the expression of maturity or not.

Duan Chen heard Long Nian's question, which seemed like a cannon, and finally he was helpless, but he still agreed: "She is ยทยทยทยทยทยท my age!" Then, Duan Chen told Long Nian how he had just met Han Yuqi, how he galloped with her in the grassland, and so on.

After hearing this, Long Nian frowned and fell into deep thought, and said for a long time: "I heard you say that it is not as bad as I thought, and you have to remember not to meet some unnecessary strangers casually." โ€

Duan Chen hurriedly retorted: "Didn't the master often say that he wanted to make friends? Why do you say don't make friends? โ€

"Hey!" Long Nian seemed to have something unspeakable, and after thinking about it, he said: "You don't have to ask about this, senior brother must have my reason for saying this to you, and when you really grow up in the future, you will understand my good intentions." โ€

Long Xin comforted Duan Chen and said, "Listen to your senior brother, he is right. โ€

Long Xi had been sullen since listening to Duan Chen's words, and he still didn't say a word, and suddenly asked, "How do you share a ride with others, don't you know if men and women are kissed?" The tone was gloomy, without the slightest tenderness before.

Duan Chen was stunned. Explained: "Haven't you and I always been like that? How can there be a distinction between men and women? โ€

Long Xi's face was hot, and he felt like he had been wronged. The tone suddenly became a little louder. "Can you and I be the same?" With that, he walked angrily towards the outside of Duan Chen's room.

Duan Chen felt a little uncertain, so he looked at Long Nian Long Xin, who was looking at him with a smile, and scratched his head. As if to say to himself, he said, "This woman is such an incomprehensible creature. Ay! After speaking, I didn't forget to sigh.

"You damn boy!" Long Xin reprimanded: "Who taught you this, what kind of woman is an incomprehensible creature?" Look how bad you are. โ€

Duan Chen immediately shouted that he was wronged. explained: "Second senior sister, don't be angry, this is not what I said, I just borrowed it now and used it, I don't think it's wrong, otherwise why would my sister lose her temper so much." โ€

Long Xinwan'er, what a boy who doesn't know the style. However, thinking of the strong derogatory sentence just now, the ** who wanted to laugh in his heart was suppressed again, and asked persistently: "Say, who taught you that sentence just now." โ€

Long Nian, who had not spoken beside him, became extremely unnatural on his face, as if to comfort Long Xin: "Don't pursue it, Chen'er may just be an unintentional mistake, right, Chen'er." Hurriedly winked at Duan Chen.

Duan Chen knew what Long Nian meant in his heart, but now he was also unable to protect himself, so he had no choice but to betray him. said in an aggrieved tone: "Second Senior Sister, I didn't say that sentence, Senior Brother often said this, and I learned it after hearing him sigh countless times." After speaking, he looked at Long Nian, who looked helpless, and thought that he could finally get rid of Long Xin's questioning.

Sure enough, when Long Xin heard Duan Chen's words, the spearhead was no longer pointing at Duan Chen, and her eyes were like a sharp sword, and she immediately swept towards Long Nian. Long Nian complained bitterly in his heart, secretly sighing that he was just complaining after being bullied by Long Xin, but he didn't expect that he would be used by Duan Chen today, and now the atmosphere was tense. There was no room for turning around, and he looked at Duan Chen with 'gritted teeth', expressing his extreme dissatisfaction with him.

Duan Chen was now overjoyed in his heart, how could he be stupid enough to suffer such an unwarranted disaster here again, Xiang Long Nian made a grimace, and walked towards the outside of the room as if he were fleeing.

Needless to say, Long Nian's pale explanation and bitter pleading voice sounded in the room.

At this time, Duan Chen had already come to the door of Long Xi's room. I slowly understood why Long Xi was angry just now, and knocked on the door twice.

Long Xi's voice sounded. Said: "If you want to come in, come in!" โ€

Duan Chen opened the door and entered the house, and saw Long Xi sitting by the windowsill, his hand gently dragging his chin, looking at the bizarre street scene outside in a daze, Duan Chen couldn't bear it. whispered: "Sister! Are you angry? โ€

Long Xi didn't look back, and shook his head gently in reply. Duan Chen stood there without saying a word, because he really didn't know what to say, and the two of them were silent like this. The same silence, but compared to when Duan Chen and Han Yuqi rode back on the melting snow, this suppressed silence was more uncomfortable than any beating and scolding.

Long Xi suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "What about the painting she gave you, I want to see it." โ€

When Duan Chen heard Long Xi speak, he hurriedly took out the painting hidden on his chest and quickly walked to Long Xi's side. Said: "Sister, here you go!" โ€

Long Xi took the painting and watched it intently, an indescribable feeling in his heart came to his heart, and now his heart was a mess, he just wanted to be quiet alone, or look at the street scene outside the windowsill, instead of seeing Duan Chen as before. said in a melancholy tone: "The two people in the painting are you, right?" โ€

Duan Chen felt it, felt the change in Long Xi's tone, he didn't understand it very well, but it didn't mean that he didn't understand anything. Said softly: "Yes! This is the scene when we come back. โ€

"Oh!" Long Xi didn't say anything, and handed the painting path to Duan Chen. "You go out!" I'm sleepy, I want to rest. โ€

Duan Chen opened his mouth, wanting to explain something, but after thinking about it for a long time, he finally felt that there was nothing to say. Sighing, he silently walked out of the room and slowly closed the door. This may be the best solution to this problem.

Inside. Long Xi, who has always been strong, finally didn't hold back a stream of tears after Duan Chen exited the door, and slid down her delicate and white face, the feelings or sorrows contained in these tears could not be written!

Duan Chen returned to the room, Long Nian and Long Xin were no more, maybe it was Long Nian's compromise, or the price of agreeing to Long Xin's several conditions to calm down the fight, the previous Duan Chen's favorite thing to watch was Long Xin bullying Long Nian, they had already married, but Long Nian had always been afraid of Long Xin, so whenever they had a disagreement, it was Long Nian who lost in the end.

Now Duan Chen no longer guessed the outcome of their quarrel, his heart was filled with Long Xi's very strong sad tone just now, what the hell is going on.

Love! It hurts to give the pain of not being able to give you love! But know that the other person gives you love! But the discomfort of not being able to reciprocate each other's love is like skin! What's more, it's still such a close person!

Tonight, two people are destined to stay awake all night!
