Chapter 54: The Ones I Like Don't Like Me
Xiao Qi looked away with some words.
"It's kind of ...... It's not appropriate," she lowered her gaze slightly, "it's so late, and it's just the two of us...... If someone else sees it......"
Yin Shiyun thought of this a little hindsightly, he let out a soft "ah" and nodded again and again.
"I mean, I took the liberty of it."
Xiao Qi sighed in her heart, she suddenly remembered that on the night of the summer banquet, Yin Shiyun made a special trip to say that he didn't have to try to let him meet Feng Yan in the future - the reason was because he had to take care of his sister's reputation.
It's really no wonder that Feng Wan wants to blacken - my sister's reputation is a reputation, isn't her reputation?
It's just that I'm still facing a boy who admires him like this.
"Then I'll come back tomorrow morning." Yin Shiyun said softly.
Xiao Qi nodded, and was about to leave with his legs in his arms, but he stopped after a few steps outside-
...... coming tomorrow morning?
Why is this person so persistent?!
"Lord Yin!" Xiao Qi gritted his teeth and shouted.
Yin Shiyun turned around a little unexpectedly, and saw Xiao Qi not far away bowing his head slightly, as if he had made some great determination.
"If you have anything to say, say it now...... Don't wait for tomorrow morning. β
Although he felt that the girl in front of him was a little weird, Yin Shiyun still nodded, "...... Good. β
β¦β¦
From the corridor of the remote garden to Siyongzhai, it is a tortuous corridor, and sometimes there is a pond covered with residual lotus, and sometimes it is a rockery that seems quiet and silent under the moonlight.
This road has an excellent view, it is not only the main road leading to Siyongzhai, but also the place where the masters in the house usually enjoy it, and the servants generally detour from the nearby path, so this way, Yin Shiyun and Xiaoqi almost did not meet anyone.
"Your sister has been living at home lately?"
"Hmm."
"I heard that after returning from Daizong Mountain, she ran back alone without informing anyone, right?"
"Hmm."
Yin Shiyun frowned slightly, "...... It's weird. β
"Also...... All right. Xiao Qi's footsteps slowed down, and for some reason, she suddenly felt some pain in her heart and mouth, and her breathing was a little difficult," Sister ...... Always, do something unexpected. β
"I heard that in the first half month, your sister refused to see Wei Xingzhen, until your aunt suddenly fell into the water, and Wei Xingzhen happened to appear nearby to rescue her...... And then the two of them rebuild the old good? β
ββ¦β¦ Right. β
Xiao Qi faintly felt that Yin Shiyun's words had some profound meaning, but she really didn't have any other strength at the moment to defend her sister and brother-in-law.
Under the dim lantern, she suddenly felt a sour nose.
An overwhelming sorrow came from Feng Wan's body, and Xiao Qi used almost all his mental strength this time to barely maintain his body to maintain balance.
However, tears suddenly and uncontrollably welled up in his eyes.
Feng Wan...... I'm crying.
Yin Shiyun was still talking about the suspicions he had observed recently.
"Your sister ......"
"Your sister ......"
"Ah Yan, she ......"
Xiao Qi stopped suddenly.
Yin Shiyun only noticed the strangeness of the girls around him at this time, he turned around, "...... What happened to Xiao Qi? β
Xiao Qi raised his hands tremblingly, and wiped his tears in vain, but these tears couldn't be wiped anymore, and after wiping one away, more hot tears poured down.
"Lord Yin......" Xiao Qi bit the corner of her lip, trying her best to control her body, she raised her left hand slightly to hold on to the stone wall on one side, so as not to be unable to support herself, "You...... Please ...... Please, laterβdon't, mention my sister in front of me again, is that okay? β
By the moonlight, Yin Shiyun finally saw that Xiao Qi was crying.
Her gaze was filled with grief and irritation, like two sparks in the night, staring straight at herself.
ββ¦β¦οΌβ Yin Shiyun was a little puzzled, "Why?" β
Xiao Qi only felt an irrepressible anger rise in his heart.
"Are you really not seeing it, or are you pretending to be stupidββ?!
With a stern posture that she had never seen before, she scolded Yin Shiyun sharply.
"Feng Wan likes you! Feng Wan likes you more than anyone else in the world! She treats you as her sun, her spark, everything about her - you are blind or stupid, you can't tell!? β
"......" Yin Shiyun was stunned.
In an instant, Xiao Qi felt that the dullness that had been pressing on his heart seemed to dissipate some.
Although her hands and feet were trembling, her limbs, which were originally cold and numb, seemed to suddenly start to become congested and gradually warmed up.
"Why am I clumsy and speechless every time I see you? Why do I blush-faced and my heart beat fast every time you pass me? Is it because I'm shy and afraid of life? It's notβit's not!!
"Because no matter when or where, as soon as you appear, all my thoughts are on you alone! I don't dare to speak, for fear that you will see my sincerity, and that you will refuse some words before I can say themβ
"Yes, you are full of my sister, and you have no time to look at a little girl beside you, and you admire you as much as you admire her!
"I don't force you to respond to me anything, but can you treat me with a little bit of basic respect?!"
Xiao Qi almost roared out this sentence, her voice with a heavy cry, almost hysterical.
"The people I like don't like me...... I accept my fate, I know that the most unreluctantly important thing in the world is human feelings--but I ask you, Lord Yin, I beg you not to dangle in front of me with nothing to do, and don't show up in front of me every time you see another woman you like in front of me-even if that person is my closest and favorite sister, I will be heartbroken-do you understand!? β
ββ¦β¦ I'm sorry. β
Yin Shiyun finally understood, he frowned, and stood there helpless for a while.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoqi, I'm ...... I don't know ......."
"Don't come hereββ!"
Xiao Qi took several steps back one after another, she tried to stop her sobbing, but she couldn't.
Feng Wan's tears were like bead curtains with broken threads, as if she was going to shed all the tears of her life on this night.
"Don't come here...... Xiao Qi reluctantly looked at Yin Shiyun's figure in a blurred line of sight, "Lord Yin, I ...... you There is only one expectation, one request, and you ...... Can you promise me? β
Yin Shiyun was shocked for a while, and he nodded solemnly, "...... You said. β
"Please leave me in the future...... A little farther away. I also...... I have a little bit of pride of my own. β
After saying this, Xiao Qi suddenly felt a sense of relief and lightness.
She quickly turned around and strode away along the corridor from which she came, and then gradually sped up, leaving Yin Shiyun, who was still at a loss in shock, far behind.
