At the end of that day, the maid next to Xiaoxiao was looking for someone everywhere, even if they didn't want to leave, the two of them were still silent and went in different directions.

Duan Heng couldn't help but look back after walking a few steps away, looking at Xiaoxiao's slightly slender figure, and his fingers subconsciously stroked the note in his heart.

It was something that Jiu had given to him along with the brocade bag at that time, and on the way out of the capital, he had already opened it and looked at it.

It was a note wrapped in a silk handkerchief, which said that it was a ploy of Jiu, and the silk handkerchief was said to be Xiaoxiao's mother's belongings.

Duan Heng's original plan was to tell Cang Tong about this matter, which could be regarded as buying an insurance policy for himself, and at the same time, it was best to let their alliance that was already a temporary formation cause dislike, but just looking at Cang Tong's suspicious appearance, Duan Heng instantly dispelled this idea.

Now that he saw Xiaoxiao, who he had been missing for a long time, thinking of the plan mentioned by Jiu, Duan Heng's heart began to waver at this time.

In Duan Heng's heart, he has never really been on anyone's side, his ultimate goal has never changed, he has done so much and changed so much, what he wants has always been Xiaoxiao.

"People don't kill the heavens and the earth for themselves, this time don't blame me for being ruthless."

Duan Heng took out the note, took out the fire fold in his arms, and quickly jumped up against the flames of the hunting evening wind at this moment, and in the blink of an eye, the note full of handwriting turned into ashes.

On the second day, Xiaoxiao had just gotten up, and the maid was still serving her to freshen up, when the voice of the attendant came from outside the door.

"Madam, Master Duan asks to see you."

"Oh? Let him in. ”

Xiaoxiao was already only the hair ornament, and the other party was Duan Heng, so she didn't turn him away.

"Below, isn't it ......"

Duan Heng didn't come very early, according to everyone's normal daily routine, this time should have been used for breakfast.

But because of Han Xuantian and Chiyun's relay connivance, Xiaoxiao really hasn't gotten up a few times early to be honest, and has always lived according to his modern work and rest habits, and now Duan Heng has come in like this. Seeing that Xiaoxiao hadn't finished grooming yet, a little embarrassment and shyness appeared on her fair and elegant face in an instant.

"Duan Heng, sit down, my side will be fine immediately. Wait for me for a few minutes. ”

"Hmm."

Duan Heng was embarrassed to look directly at Xiaoxiao's state, and he was already a little apprehensive in his heart, so he didn't question Xiaoxiao's time unit at once.

"Is there something that came to me? Or is there something wrong with it? ”

After Xiaoxiao was dressed neatly, he sat opposite Duan Heng with the corner of his clothes, after yesterday's incident, Xiaoxiao's impression of Duan Heng was almost more pure. So now that Duan Heng came to her, she was really happy, this man was now the purest incarnation in her eyes.

"No, I'm fine, I'm here to find you today...... It's because ......"

Duan Heng looked at the maids and entourage who were busy in the room, obviously they had something to say to Xiaoxiao, but they avoided the appearance of others.

"Go out and get busy, I'll call you if there's something to do."

"Yes! The slave (minion) is retired! ”

As all the subordinates retreated one by one, Xiaoxiao looked at Duan Heng who was staring at him with a smile, and a little silly smile appeared on his little face.

"Alright. Now, is there any surprise for me? ”

Xiaoxiao held her chin in her hands, smiling happily, she herself now felt that looking at Duan Heng seemed to be able to regain the feeling she had when she first arrived in this world.

"Xiao'er, I actually ...... It's not good news, you must not worry too much, I ......"

"What's wrong? Are you in trouble? Han Xuanshi is difficult for you? ”

Xiaoxiao couldn't figure out why Duan Heng was so sloppy, to say that the fight between the two brothers of the Han family would not affect his interests too much. Moreover, Duan Heng is still his father's student, so he won't be in a too ugly situation.

"Actually, it's not about me, what I want to tell Sù Xiao'er now is about the master and the master!"

Duan Heng observed Xiaoxiao's expression. Because although he had been in love with Xiaoxiao for a while, it was the memories of the two of them, and it didn't involve the scholar and his wife at all, and the two rarely talked about their elders.

Therefore, Duan Heng is still a little uncertain about the relationship between Xiaoxiao and his mother, in case their mother-daughter relationship is indifferent. Wouldn't it be in vain for me this time?

"Daddy and Mother? What's wrong with them? ”

Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment when he heard Duan Heng's words, and then suddenly thought of something, and his eyes flickered uncontrollably.

Of course, her abnormality at the moment was in Duan Heng's eyes because she was worried about her parents, but Xiaoxiao herself understood that her emotional fluctuations came from the information in Duan Heng's words.

"This is what my master brought to me before leaving, saying that my master didn't know what strange illness she had contracted recently, and the whole person was dazed, and her complexion was not as good as day by day, although I knew that it was better for you to continue to stay here, Xiao'er, but I was afraid of ......."

After listening to Duan Heng's so-called news, he looked at the silk handkerchief again, and the complicated feelings in Xiaoxiao's heart continued to spread.

He's lying to himself now, isn't he? Why did he do it?

Although Xiaoxiao had a strange look in her heart, her face was no longer the girl who was ignorant of the world, she just hesitated for a moment, and then immediately her face was full of anxiety, even regardless of her manners, and grabbed Duan Heng's hand on the handkerchief.

"What's wrong with Mother? Infected? My mother has always been well-maintained, how could she suddenly get sick? Is it very strict? How long has it been? ”

The moment Xiaoxiao just grabbed Duan Heng, Duan Heng was still subconsciously stunned, but feeling the touch and temperature of his hand, the corners of his mouth still trembled lightly a few times.

"Xiao'er, don't be anxious, I hesitated for a day to tell you the news, just because I was afraid that you would be worried, in fact, if it wasn't for the matter, I really didn't want to sue you and make you worry, but now my wife ......"

Duan Heng lowered his head, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of helplessness and discouragement, if it weren't for the fact that Xiaoxiao began to contact his father some time ago, he would not have thought that the man in front of him, who does not eat fireworks in the world, would have been so skilled in deceiving people.

"That'...... When you left the capital, did your mother's condition improve? ”

Xiaoxiao looked at Duan Heng, who was so emotional, and only felt that a certain part of his heart began to gradually crumble, as if something had been holding on to it had fallen apart beyond recognition at this moment. (To be continued.) )
