Ji Hongye glanced at Lin Qingyang with a faint expression, "I can't see that you still have the potential to be a matchmaker." ”

Lin Qingyang straightened his goat's beard again, and said with a smile: "Huaijin, you don't understand this, a gentleman has the beauty of an adult." ”

Nalan Jinxiu didn't want to listen to his nonsense anymore, so she hurriedly changed the conversation: "If you want to make an immortal pill, you can only ask for two, and you want one." ”

The corners of Lin Qingyang's eyes twitched, and he was about to make Xizi hold his heart, Ji Hongye looked at his appearance, and inexplicably felt a little happy.

"Twilight, take care of it first! Lin Qingyang flicked his sleeves and left.

Ji Hongye got up, elegantly tidied up his robe, walked to the door and saw that Nalan Jinxiu hadn't caught up yet, frowning: "If you don't keep up yet, what are you doing there?"

Nalan Jinxiu was inexplicably asked by him: "Where are you going?"

Ji Hongye didn't bother to reply, and cherished the words like gold: "Go home." ”

"But I've only been here for a short time. ”

"Your patients have been driven away. ”

Nalan Jinxiu came to her senses at this time, "Oh, then go back!"

Although Ji Hongye is already a Shaoqing of Dali Temple and a fourth-grade position, he does not pay attention to style, green curtain carriage, simple and simple. The coachman is a young man, about the same size as Long Yi, his breathing is as light as silent, and he is also a practitioner.

Ji Hongye got into the carriage first, and Nalan Jinxiu followed behind. Long Yi was standing next to the carriage and stretched out his hand to help her get into the carriage, but saw the curtain of the carriage opened, and a hand stretched out from inside.

Nalan Jinxiu was stunned, and Long Yi had already retreated in recognition of each other. Through the light emitted by the lantern on the front of the car, Nalan Jinxiu carefully examined this hand. The fingers are long and distinct, and the index and middle fingers have thin calluses on the pads of the fingers, which look like they hold a pen all year round.

"Why haven't you come up yet?" said a faint voice from the car.

Nalan Jinxiu came back to his senses, put his hand in his palm and got into the car. The carriage was dark, and she sat down cautiously against the wall of the car, not daring to move, for fear of running into Ji Hongye and upsetting him.

The air was silent, and the darkness became more and more oppressive, except for the slow movement of the wheels, making a creaking sound. Nalan Jinxiu was originally recuperating with her eyes closed, and she fell asleep unconsciously. When she arrived at the gate of Ji's mansion, the car stopped, Ji Hongye gave her the cloak and got out of the car first.

Nalan Jinxiu asked in a daze, "Have you arrived?"

He stood on the edge of the carriage and cherished the words like gold: "Hmm." ”

She suddenly sobered up and said hurriedly: "You can't go to the main gate, it's over if you're found." ”

"There's a back door to go through?"

"No...... But I can, over the wall. ”

Ji Hongye swept the wall of Ji Mansion with her residual light, at this height, she really dared to ......

"Don't make a sound, put on your cloak, and I'll send you in. ”

Just kidding, if it is known that she goes home with him in the middle of the night, then it will be worth it? Any rumors can come out, and it is not possible to marry him. The more Nalan Jinxiu thought about it, the more terrifying she felt, and shook her head to refuse: "No, no, it's over if you send me to be seen, it's better for me to climb over the wall and go in by myself." ”

"Don't climb over the wall again. ”

"But ......"

She originally wanted to say that if she didn't climb over the wall and walk through the main gate, she was afraid that people wouldn't know that she was in the night market? But when the words came to her mouth, she swallowed them back, and she really didn't dare to talk to him like this. When I saw that I was at the door, I could only wrap myself tightly.

The family guarding the door saw that it was the third young master, and immediately cheered up and saluted. Ji Hongye is still the same as usual, gentle but distant: "Go and call Uncle Cheng, I'll wait for him here." ”

The subordinate who went to deliver the message was suspicious in his heart, what is the important thing that the third young master wants to see the chief manager at the door in the middle of the night? Ji Chengyuan came quickly, he is the housekeeper of the outer courtyard of the Ji Mansion, he is in his forties, he looks very upright, and when he sees Ji Hongye, he salutes in a regular manner.

"Uncle Cheng, take a step to speak. ”

Nalan Jinxiu didn't know what Ji Hongye and Ji Chengyuan said. When he came back, he let her in, and told her that she would go through the main gate in the future, and there would be no need to climb over the wall.

She thanked her, pulled the hat on her cloak, and had just taken a few steps when she heard him tell her to wait. Puzzled, she turned back and saw that he had gotten a lantern out of nowhere, and was slowly walking towards her.

"It's late at night, I'll send you in. It was obviously a question, but he said it in an affirmative tone. Nalan Jinxiu didn't refuse, followed behind him, and continued to walk back.

When she entered the Ji Mansion, she found that there was no light in the huge mansion at this time, and it was pitch black. The lamp in Ji Hongye's hand exuded a soft light. Nalan Jinxiu suddenly felt a little moved in her heart, she was very glad that he was there, otherwise she would still be somewhat uneasy after walking all the way to her residence like this, passing through the winding path.

Tripped over the stone, she stumbled, and the whole person rushed forward, and he reached out to hold her. With such a big person walking and still falling, she felt that she was really going back to life more and more. Standing neatly, she stammered in thanks.

Ji Hongye was quiet from beginning to end, looked at her quietly for a while, and stretched out his left hand to her. The moonlight was not bright, and she couldn't make out the expression on his face. It's just that men and women can't kiss each other, can she hold hands with him and walk back?

She didn't move, and neither did he, as if he was just waiting for her to decide, and his patience was surprisingly good. After a while, Nalan Jinxiu stretched out her hand, and Ji Hongye shook it gently, very lightly, as if she was afraid of pinching her.

Because of her poor vision, she walked very slowly, and he walked slowly according to her pace. She found that her cousin was really gentle and considerate to the extreme, and it was no wonder that Xu Jinsheng was infatuated with him at the beginning.

In the dark night, a man and a woman, holding hands, walked forward slowly, this situation should have been extremely restrained. But Nalan Jinxiu didn't feel boundless at all, looking at the back of the person in front of him, he only felt safe and reliable, and his heart was at peace.

When she arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Ji Hongye let go of her hand, didn't say a word, and returned the same way with the lantern. Nalan Jinxiu was stunned at the door for a long time, and it wasn't until Jixiang came out and asked her why she hadn't entered the courtyard that she came back to her senses.

Since then, every time she goes out and returns home, she is a little weak-hearted, afraid of being discovered. But the news of her going out has not been reported. After a long time, Nalan Jinxiu also began to find a pattern, every time she went out and came back, the same two people were guarding the door.

When the two men saw her, they would neither salute nor greet her, and would just let her go out. When she returned, if she was alone, one of them would walk in front of her with a lantern until she entered the courtyard.

She would sometimes say thank you to them, but they would never reply, only bow respectfully to her in return. Nalan Jinxiu knew that this was the person Ji Hongye arranged for her, and she was more and more grateful to him.
