The dark figure standing by the window immediately froze.

Xuanyuan opened his eyes and looked at the top of the mosquito net faintly, without speaking, and the person who was already silent seemed to have become mute at this moment.

"Ruyi, what are you thinking?" Unable to resist the suffocation brought about by such a stalemate and non-speaking atmosphere, Xuanyuan Qian couldn't help but speak.

“…… I'm sorry. ”

Xuanyuan couldn't help but smile bitterly, Ruyi really deserved to be the topic terminator.

"Why say you're sorry?" Her heart was tightening and aching inch by inch, but she wanted to grit her teeth and ask.

"I ......" Ruyi's voice was a little confused, and then his tone was a little depressed, "I don't know what ~ love is." ”

After that day, Ruyi humbly asked someone what it meant to be a woman kissing a man, and the answer he received was: The woman is in love with the man.

At that time, I was confused, what is "love"?

So, is he really an emotional idiot? So, was she sad in vain? So, should she give up this tree that is not easy to hang and choose a bigger forest?

Faced with such an answer, Xuanyuan couldn't tell whether his mood was happy or helpless.

"As is, love is an emotion that comes from the heart, which means that you have deep feelings for someone or something, and the process of this feeling is love." remembered that he had searched for the interpretation of the word "love" in Du Niang, and Xuanyuan Qian felt that it was summed up quite completely.

"The understanding of love may still be too difficult for you now." Xuanyuan smiled bitterly. I felt like I was teaching a child to walk, stumbling, but I didn't want to let go. "So, let's learn to understand 'like' first."

"Like?" Ruyi frowned again.

At the time, he didn't ask what it meant to like.

"I like to wear white clothes, I like to eat lotus roots, I like to read medical books...... These are the things I want to do and enjoy doing them, and that's what I like. "I know that it is too incomparable to use Ruyi as an example, so Xuanyuan Qian simply uses himself as an example.

If you lower your eyelids, thoughtfully.

"Ruyi, do me a favor." Although the level of "like" is much smaller than that of "love", it is probably impossible for an emotional idiot to suddenly open his mind. So Xuanyuan didn't mind turning his attention away a little.

"What's the busy?"

"Send a secret invitation letter to my master, uncle, and the city lord of Vermilion Bird City, inviting them to gather late at night in the wing room on the top floor of the Magpie Tower." Xuanyuan Qian sat up on the bed and did not open the veil tent. "I heard that the top floor wing of the Magpie Tower never lets anyone in, do you have a way?"

"Yes."

"In that case, I'll leave this matter to you." Once things are handed over to Ruyi to do, Xuanyuan Qian will always have a sense of ease that he has entrusted the task. Seeing Ruyi was still standing by the window. She was a little embarrassed. Then he asked, "It's not dawn yet, do you want to go back and rest?" ”

Ruyi shook his head, "No." Then he walked towards the bed.

"What are you doing here? Hold it! Seeing him getting closer and closer, Xuanyuan Qian immediately shouted.

"I got the news that you have a wound on your face." As soon as she stood still, even if it was pitch black around her, Xuanyuan Qian could still feel the other party's midnight-like eyes, looking at her persistently.

"I'm fine!" I'm afraid he'll come over and take a look. Xuanyuan Qian hurriedly said: "I don't feel much pain anymore after taking the medicine, and Uncle Shi's scar removal cream is very useful." I won't have a scar on my face. ”

The woman is the one who pleases herself, and she naturally doesn't want Ruyi to see her disfigured face.

"I'll see." Although Ruyi did not come over, his firm and persistent tone already showed his determination to see it.

Xuanyuan was embarrassed: "I don't want you to see it." ”

Ruyi raised his eyebrows, "Why?" ”

"What woman would want the man she likes to see her embarrassed side?" Xuanyuan tried to make the other party understand his feelings.

"But I still want to see it." As stubborn as one.

Xuanyuan subconsciously bit her lip, but because of this small action, her facial muscles moved, and the wound suddenly ached, making her insulate a breath of cool air.

"Shallow!" Hearing the sound, like a shadow flashing, the gauze tent was suddenly opened, and the person was already sitting on the bed.

Xuanyuan Qian hurriedly hid to the side, but was grabbed by his shoulders with one or two hands and couldn't move.

"You let me see!" Ruyi actually took out the lamp with one hand.

Xuanyuan Qian immediately went to grab it, but was restrained by Ruyi, seeing that the lamp was about to be lit, she was so anxious that she was about to cry, and suddenly struggled even more.

"Don't make a fuss!" Ruyi frowned and said.

"I didn't make a fuss!" Xuanyuan wanted to cry without tears, seeing that Ruyi was bent on going his own way, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly changed his tone, and his voice asked sadly: "Ruyi, do you want to make me cry?" ”

As soon as he went to light the lamp, his fingers suddenly stiffened.

He hadn't seen Xuanyuan shed tears, but as long as he thought that she would cry, his heart would be so uncomfortable that he wanted to destroy the world.

Sensing that the other party was abnormally resistant to his behavior of looking at her face, Ruyi was like seeing an unreasonable child desperately covering his wounds, so as not to let adults underestimate him, there was a trace of helplessness and connivance in his eyes, and his voice became soft, "Shallow, I just want to see if your situation is serious." ”

"It's not serious!" Xuanyuan said without thinking about it.

"But I don't feel at ease if I don't look at it." Such as a piece.

"But—"

"No, but." One by one, he hugged Xuanyuan's waist and pressed her to his chest strongly.

He looked at her condescendingly, although the night was thick, but in the darkness, he could vaguely see the pair of watery peach blossom eyes, as if they had been startled with layers of ripples, sparkling, extremely charming.

"If you don't let me see the wound on your face, I won't help you." This is the only capital that can be used to blackmail Xuanyuan Qian's obedience.

I didn't expect Xuanyuan Qian, who was coerced by Ruyi, at all: "......"

Struggling and hesitating, Xuanyuan had to take a step back, "Okay, you can watch." ”

The next moment, the lamp was lit.

In the light, Xuanyuan Qian's face covered with hideous blood marks was unconcealed in front of Ruyi's eyes.

In the silence for a long time, Xuanyuan Qian didn't even dare to look up to look at Ruyi's eyes and expression at this time.

Hearing Ruyi's breathing, when she wanted to speak, she reached out to cover his mouth first, and warned viciously: "Don't pity me!" Don't call me ugly! Don't say anything! ”

Xuanyuan's face was covered with blood, making it impossible to see her expression clearly, but looking at those peach blossom eyes so closely, Ruyi clearly felt her panic and her nervousness.

In my heart, it seems that something is shrinking, painful.

He reached out and grabbed Xuanyuan's hand, took it, and responded conniving and softly: "Okay, I won't say anything." ”

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, but he frowned in pain.

"Don't act rashly!" As soon as I looked at her frowning, I felt that my heart was also hurting. (To be continued......)
