Tsukika Friends Residence――

There was silence in the VIP room. The four of them sat opposite each other, each silently drinking the wine in their hands, but none of them spoke.

The occasional soft sound of cups colliding did not alleviate the awkward atmosphere, but added a treacherousness.

The little moon bud moved westward, and the stars tiredly obscured their light. I don't know how long it took, Xuanyuan Rui, who couldn't stand the silence anymore, drank the wine in the cup, and opened his mouth with difficulty.

"Hao ......" Sometimes it doesn't matter if you are like a mirror or indifferent and fearless, there are always times when it is difficult for you to speak, just like Xuanyuan Rui now, not to mention that his heart is not clear at this time. Swallowing his saliva, Xuanyuan Rui, who didn't know how to speak, squeezed out the sentence rawly: "We...... Can it still be...... Friends? ”

Friend? Yes, if the word 'friend' is his luxury. Then, what was once a brotherhood has now become a dream. After going through so much, he no longer dared to pray for Murong Hao to continue to treat him as a brother. Retreating to the next best thing is already the best treatment for him now. And, whether he can be recognized or not, he is not sure at all.

Hearing this, Murong Hao held the hand that held the wine glass to his lips and paused.

Friend? Times have changed. The love that used to be left in this environment, how can he accept it?

“…… Jiu'er's happiness is what I want to protect the most now. Murong Hao drank the wine from his mouth, and his cold tone was a little heavy.

Forgive him for not being able to let go of the hatred in his heart, even if in this hatred, Xuanyuan Rui seems so innocent. However, aside from his hatred, Xuanyuan Rui is innocent. In the matter of Murong Jiu's happiness, Xuanyuan Rui is a hidden danger, not to mention that Xuanyuan Rui almost participated in the destruction today.

"......" Xuanyuan Rui gritted his teeth, and his heart hurt so much that he couldn't make any response to Murong Hao's words.

He never wanted to protect Murong Jiu's happiness, but he wanted to be the one who guarded by her side. But......

If you miss it, you will miss it......

Men don't flick if they have tears! But he felt the heat in his eyes at this moment, even if he gritted his teeth and endured it, not letting the moisture accumulate into flowers.

"I ......" Xuanyuan Rui forced his mouth to speak, but he tried his best to turn his brain, but he couldn't find a clue, and finally he could only swallow a hard breath and said, "...... I know. ”

Picking up the wine jug, Xuanyuan Rui got up, and it could be seen from his fluttering cheeks how hard he was trying to restrain himself, he took a breath, and after calming down a little, he said: "Jiu'er's happiness is also what I want to protect, if you still believe me, let's make this pot of wine together." ”

Murong Hao raised his eyes to look at Xuanyuan Rui, and his indifferent eyes were no longer the same as they were years ago...... Even if it wasn't pure, it wasn't as deep as it is now. The deep pupils are like a bottomless pool of ink, coldly releasing the darkness that rejects people for thousands of miles.

Squinting his eyes slightly, Murong Hao moved, he got up slowly, elegantly reached out and picked up the wine jug in front of him, and looked directly at Xuanyuan Rui without blinking for a moment.

"What King Rui wants to protect should be Tianyao's country, and Jiu'er's happiness will not be bothered." Murong Hao's cold voice was frozen, and the words he spit out made people's hearts hurt even more. And it hurts...... Not to mention Xuanyuan Rui.

"......" Xuanyuan Rui squeezed the wine jug in his hand tightly, looking directly at Murong Hao's eyes with pain and resentment, could it be that he couldn't give even a little care? Is this going to be completely deprived?

Xuanyuan Rui closed his eyes weakly, he was not qualified! Not eligible to be resentful......

"......" moved his lips, but in the end, Xuanyuan Rui still didn't say anything, raised the wine jug in his hand, glanced at Murong Hao, raised his head and poured it into his mouth, choking into his throat, it was so spicy that his throat hurt, but he didn't stop, he kept pouring the wine into his mouth until the wine jug bottomed out......

Murong Hao looked at it coldly, his bottomless eyes flashed invisibly, and he raised his hand and raised his head, but his drinking posture was much more indifferent than Xuanyuan Rui's.

Since entering here, Luo Yanqing and Cheng Ziye, who have been drinking silently and never said a word, looked at the two of them fixedly, glanced at each other with low eyes, and lowered their heads again.

Cheng Ziye poured the wine in his hand into his mouth and swallowed it, his previously clear eyes were covered by a layer of thick fog, and his eyes were charming.

Luo Yanqing is the only one with a clear mind among several people. However, he is not a saint, the beloved woman is not the one he marries, and he is not as indifferent as they see.

His heart would also hurt, and he was so sad that he wanted to be drunk and dream of death at this moment, but he was so awake.

Sometimes, he actually hates himself so much, why can he see everything so thoroughly? He didn't fight because he didn't want to fight, but he clearly knew that unless there was no Dongfang Yi, he would be without Murong Jiu in this life.

Life is so strange, it seems that there is nothing that power cannot do. But on the contrary, there will always be some things that deviate from the trajectory and lose to people's hearts.

On the road of love, whether it is him or Xuanyuan Rui, or Cheng Ziye...... Du, lost to Murong Jiu's heart!

The two of them, who were immersed in their respective thoughts, didn't find out when Xuanyuan Rui was drunk, until Murong Hao recruited a secret guard to send Xuanyuan Rui back, but was stopped by Xuanyuan Rui's own secret guard, saying that their master could send it by themselves.

Xuanyuan Rui's secret guard wanted to take his master away, and Murong Hao would not stop him, but after they left, he signaled the secret guard to follow secretly until he arrived at the post house safely.

And indoors, due to Xuanyuan Rui's early departure, fell into a strange silence again.

"Yanqing, midnight ......" For a moment, Murong Hao wanted to break the silence, and the two people around him were not having a good time today! He wanted to say something, but Cheng Ziye also opened his mouth at this time.

"In the royal family, no one is innocent." Cheng Ziye took another sip of wine, squinted his eyes and swallowed hard, and said, "...... But, Hao! Do you hate him that much? ”

Murong Hao paused, looking at Cheng Ziye's gloomy and obviously suppressed angry face, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. And Cheng Ziye opened his eyes at this time, stood up quickly, and threw down a sentence, "It's late, I'll go back first." Then he strode away.

He was angry in his heart, but he ...... It's not against Murong Hao, and it's not against anyone.

Cheng Ziye admits that he is irritable! And when he heard Murong Hao say to Xuanyuan Rui, "Jiu'er's happiness doesn't bother", his heart ......

The kind of astringency and heartache that I know is not saying it to myself, but it seems to be saying it to myself...... He's so hard to suppress!

The scolding that broke out made him a little stunned, how could he not understand Hao's mood! But what else can be done when the words are spoken? He had no choice but to escape......
