Chapter 33: Ling Xue's Annoyance
Early that morning, Ximen Yun invited Ling Xue to come to the Lanyue Pavilion by the sea, where wine and tea had already been set up on the stone table.
Ling Xue didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the Ximen Cloud Gourd, so she stood outside the pavilion and asked, "Ximen Yun, what is the matter with you asking me to come here?" ”
"Nothing, just as an old friend, please have a drink. Don't you dare to drink my wine? Ximen Yun rolled up his sleeves and poured wine into the two wine glasses, and looked up at Ling Xue and said.
"What don't you dare to drink! I'm afraid you're not just inviting me to a bar? Ling Xue raised her eyebrows and said.
"It's nothing, just drink and talk casually." Ximen Yunxiao made a gesture of invitation to Ling Xue.
Ling Xue went straight into the pavilion, sat down on the stone bench opposite Ximen Yun, picked up the wine glass in front of her, shook it towards Ximen Yun, frowned and took a few sips, and her face flushed in an instant. After drinking, Ling Xue stood up, squinted at Ximen Yun, and said, "I've already drunk the wine, now it's time for me to go." ”
"It's good for you to go, but if you go, you won't be able to hear what I say, I'm afraid you'll regret it!" Ximen Yunqian squinted, looked at Ling Xue, and said with a smile.
"Nervous!" Ling Xue pursed her lips, turned around and walked outside the pavilion. didn't take two steps, but heard Ximenyun's voice behind him: "I know you like Song Qi!" ”
"Ximen Yun, you are full, take care of other people's affairs!" Ling Xue turned her head and glared at Ximen Yun and reprimanded, and after speaking, she turned around and wanted to go again.
"I'm just not worth it for you! You and your father worked hard to save Song Qi's life, and you also put all your mind on Song Qi, what did you get in the end? Nothing! Song Qi doesn't like you, only Mingyu! Ximen Yun said coldly behind Ling Xue's back.
"Ximen Yun, what do you mean?" Ling Xue turned her head and glared at Ximen Yun and asked sharply.
"I don't mean anything else, I'm just fighting for you! I think that when your father was alive, his old man also took good care of me, and I also learned my martial arts from him, so it can be said that your father is my master. I can't watch this kid Song Qi bully you and just do nothing! Ximen Yun spread his hands and said with a smile.
"You don't have to worry about my business!" Ling Xue took a step back to the table, picked up the wine jug and poured herself a glass of wine, drank it with her neck tilted, and slammed the wine glass on the table. By this time, her face had turned crimson.
Ximen Yun also picked up the wine glass and took a sip, looked at Ling Xue with a smile in his eyes, and said unhurriedly: "Song Qi, this kid is really not a thing, and he personally promised you to learn martial arts and go with you to avenge your father!" Now he doesn't practice martial arts, he doesn't ride horses, and he has no intention of helping you take revenge at all, it seems that he is greedy for Mingyu's beauty and family property, and he wants to stay on the island and not leave! ”
Ling Xue picked up the wine jug and poured herself a glass of wine, after the wine glass was full, the wine overflowed on the table, still unconsciously, she poured the wine on the one hand, and smiled bitterly at Ximen Yun and said, "Thank you for telling me this!" I will avenge my own revenge, it doesn't matter if he goes or not! After speaking, he raised his wine glass and made a clinking gesture towards Ximenyun, then put it to his lips, drank it all, and then staggered away without looking back, leaving Ximenyun with a sinister face, pouring himself a drink in the pavilion alone......
Although the words were tough, after Ling Xue left Ximen Yun, she ran back to the room with tears in her eyes, and got into the quilt to cover her headache and cry, and her tears wet the bed pillow and quilt......
When it was time to hold the lamp, Ling Xue got up from the bed, her eyes were red and swollen and her face was pale, she freshened up and dressed up a little, then walked out of the room and walked quickly towards Song Qi's residence. Song Qi lived in the east wing, and Ling Xue and Mingyu lived in the west wing, separated by the main building, five or six hundred steps away. After about half a cup of tea, Ling Xue came to the door of Song Qi's room, she straightened her clothes, calmed down, raised her hand and knocked on the door.
At this time, Song Qi had just returned from practicing the repeater, exhausted, and was resting on the bed. As soon as he heard a knock on the door, he quickly jumped up from the bed and opened the door from the inside. Song Qi saw that it was Ling Xue, and saw that she was in a trance, the color was not color, and her eyes were not eyes, so he asked with concern: "Xue'er, are you uncomfortable?" ”
"I feel uncomfortable!" Ling Xue bowed her head and said, her tone full of resentment.
"What did Ximen Yun tell you to do today?" Song Qi felt a little bad when he heard this, so he asked.
Ling Xue lowered her head and didn't answer directly, just said, "Let's go to the beach for a walk." ”
Song Qi nodded in agreement, hurriedly cleaned up, and walked out with Ling Xue. The two of them were silent, only bowed their heads and stepped on the moonlight, slowly crossed the covered bridge, crossed the jungle, turned a few corners, and came to the sea. The moonlight is like water, and the sea breeze blows slowly on the face, which is very cool. The water shook softly and crashed against the shore, making a rattling sound.
The two were silent for half an hour. Song Qi couldn't help it, so he took the lead in asking, "What did Ximen Yun tell you?" ”
"It's nothing, just invited me for a drink and had a casual chat." Ling Xue looked melancholy, her eyes looked at a big wave on the sea, and said slowly.
"I'm afraid it's more than that, right?" Song Qi looked back at Ling Xue's eyes and asked.
Ling Xue didn't answer directly, but just took a long breath, looked away from Song Qi's gaze, and said faintly, "I want to leave here tomorrow." ”
"Didn't you say you'd go back in a year?" Song Qi's heart tightened, and he hurriedly reminded.
"My father's bones are not cold, the revenge has not been avenged, I can't stay here for a moment!" Ling Xue said sadly, paused, and said with a grudge: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to go, I can go alone!" ”
Song Qi thought that it seemed that what he said last time had to be said again, so he said resolutely: "I won't agree if you go alone, and Ming Zhugong won't agree either!" ”
"What if you don't agree? I'm in charge of my own business! Ling Xue glanced at Song Qi, and her tone was very cold.
When Song Qi heard this, his heart was half cold, and he was speechless for a while, just looking at the splashing waves on the shore in a daze. The two were silent for a long time, and suddenly heard Ling Xue sobbing in a low voice, Song Qi hurriedly turned around, and saw Ling Xue with tears on her face, he was shocked, and hurriedly reached out to pat her on the shoulder, comforting her and saying, "After a while, when I finish practicing, I will go with the two of you." ”
"Don't coax me." Ling Xue snorted and sneered: "Say what you say to learn martial arts well, go ahead, now you don't ride a horse, you don't practice, when can you practice martial arts well?" I didn't plan to go at all! ”
When Song Qi heard this, he couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly explained: "Riding a horse, it's enough for me to be able to run on a horse now without falling off, I don't need to ride as well as you." As he spoke, he pointed to his hands and feet, and continued: "As for martial arts, I have been practicing since I was a child!" At my age, I'm old and hard-boned, and it's too late to practice much. Besides, I learn and forget, and I don't know what to do with martial arts at all. ”
Ling Xue looked at Song Qi with puzzled eyes.
"When I say good practice, I mean to practice the level of crossbow shooting, if you can achieve 100 shots, you will not become a burden to you when you go out, and maybe you can help. Don't you see that I practice shooting every day, and I guess I will reach this level soon. As he spoke, he made a shooting motion into the air.
"I thought you were reluctant to leave!" Ling Xue listened to Song Qi's explanation, and her doubts were relieved, so she burst into a smile and smiled.
"How so?" Song Qi said with a smile.
Then the two of them stepped on the shadowy moonlight and went home, talking and laughing along the way, as if nothing had happened
