The two stood opposite each other, although they listened to Gu Minluo very indifferently, but Jiang Tingxue's mood was very depressed at this time. She lowered her eyebrows, as if she was a little afraid to face the face of the person in front of her, and felt faintly guilty about him in her heart, and finally said a few words in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I was too abrupt." ”
"It's okay, since I brought you here, I don't plan to hide this, I don't have to blame myself for listening to Xue." Gu Minluo looked at the slightly lowered face and smiled faintly, and his voice was soft.
Jiang Tingxue nodded generously, and her expression returned to normal. Thinking about the words of the people in front of him, it is not unreasonable, since he has brought himself here, and he also told her about his childhood experience in detail, presumably after so many years, he should also be relieved of this painful past.
It's just that she doesn't know that it is only because she is the person standing in front of him that he is so honest and does not hide it. Besides, how many people can be relieved of such a thing? There are some things that only those who have experienced can understand, and those who have not experienced them will never be able to understand it, let alone understand the taste. And her, although her mother died a few years ago, the family is still there, and there is a father who loves her at home.
Gu Minluo glanced back at the tomb again, a hint of remembrance appeared in his eyes, and then pointed to Jiang Tingxue the road behind her: "Let's go." ”
"Hmm." Jiang Tingxue turned around and walked in front of Gu Minluo, passing by clusters of dead grass swaying in the breeze, and some fine broken grass was unconsciously sticking to his clothes, and finally the two came to a tree with fallen leaves and took off the reins tied to the trunk.
Dead branches and fallen leaves are piled up on the ground, and they make a clatter when they are stepped on. Gu Minluo led the horse, glanced at Jiang Tingxue inadvertently, his eyes flashed a hint of softness, and naturally stopped beside Jiang Tingxue, and said softly: "Wait a minute." ”
Jiang Tingxue's face was puzzled, there was a faint doubt in his eyes, and he watched as he raised a hand and stretched out a hand to the hair on the top of her head. Feeling the slight movement of her hair, the hand was retracted in the blink of her eyes, carrying a grass clipping, and the doubt in her eyes changed.
Although she felt that such an action seemed a little intimate, she didn't think about it in other ways, maybe this is a kind of casual freedom between the people of the rivers and lakes, not confined to secular subtleties, but there will be no less etiquette to follow. At least they've been together for so long, and the person in front of them hasn't taken it lightly. In her eyes, he has always been gentle, elegant, humble and polite.
Of course, it's not that she doesn't understand this kind of thing, it's just that in her opinion, the person in front of her seems to be too good, and he may not be interested in her, but just treat her as an ordinary friend. And she also regards him as a friend, even if she has some good feelings in her heart, she will not let such good feelings spread.
She knew that she might not be in charge of her life's affairs in the future, so she should not have such delusions in her heart from the beginning, lest she embarrass her father in the future. After all, behind her is the entire Jiang family, and sooner or later, all the burdens will be on her shoulders. For the sake of the Jiang family's foundation, for her marriage, her father will definitely handle it himself, choose a suitable person for her, and help her take care of the family business in the future.
Two fingers and one loose, the grass clippings drifted away with the wind, seeing Jiang Tingxue's expression slightly stunned, the corners of Gu Minluo's mouth rose shallowly, and he reminded gently: "Okay, let's go." ”
Jiang Tingxue's long eyelashes trembled, he didn't say anything, and led the horse to step forward in parallel with the person beside him, and the afternoon sun shone on the two of them with a crispy warmth.
Along the way, the two didn't say much, just enjoyed the autumn scenery along the way. Gu Minluo was hesitant, and until now, he didn't know whether to tell her what he wanted. After all, the two have been together for such a long time, but she has always maintained an invisible distance from him, a faint alienation and politeness.
This distance made him feel a little uneasy in his heart, fearing that he was just wishful thinking, and that maybe after saying what he thought in his heart, they would not even be able to be friends, and she would leave him. But if he doesn't say it, he is unwilling, and there is always a hope in her heart, maybe she also has him in her heart.
Although she encountered a siege and killing, Jiang Tingxue realized the sinister nature of the rivers and lakes, but she liked to listen to books as always, and heard that Mr. Storyteller talked about all kinds of things about the rivers and lakes. Therefore, after entering the market, although it was not too early, the two still entered a restaurant. In the lobby of the restaurant, the storyteller was talking with flying eyebrows, and there were many listeners gathered around. Gu Minluo took Jiang Tingxue into here, and at the same time as dinner, he could accompany Jiang Tingxue to listen to books, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
The man led the two of them up to the second floor, and came to a private seat by a carved railing, which was not a good place to listen to a book. But because they came late to-day, the best spot had been taken, and there was no choice. But fortunately, Mr. Storyteller's voice can still be heard clearly, but in fact, the impact is not very great.
After the two of them sat down, Gu Minluo randomly reported the names of seven or eight dishes, and beckoned the man to retreat. He leisurely poured two cups of tea, handed one to Jiang Tingxue, and then took a sip himself. After putting down the teacup, he abandoned the chattering noise around him, and listened to the book with Jiang Tingxue intently. As long as Jiang Tingxue likes to do something, he will try his best to like it.
Jiang Tingxue listened attentively, but because she didn't listen from the beginning, she didn't understand what the storyteller was talking about at first, until after a while, she cleared her mind and understood a little.
It was actually talking about the destruction of the Absolute Dust Palace, which happened not long ago, and then after some language processing by the person who wrote the story, it was told by the clever mouth of this storyteller, which was simply vivid and expressive, as if the storyteller had witnessed it with his own eyes, and won bursts of applause from the audience.
Of course, this storyteller is also a master of art and bold, which makes people feel that this is a person who is not afraid of death, dares to say anything, and is not afraid of retaliation. You must know that although the Absolute Dust Palace has been destroyed, not all the people in the Absolute Dust Palace are dead, there are always one or two who escaped, and even the palace master is still alive now, and he is recuperating in obscurity, waiting for an opportunity to take revenge on the White Twilight Villa.
Jiang Tingxue listened with relish for a while, and when she heard a special word come out of the storyteller's mouth, she couldn't help but hook her lower lip, shook her head, and said: "Don't say it, this person is bold enough, even the collusion between White Twilight Mountain Villa and Feiche Cliff, he dares to spread and comment so unscrupulously, but he is not worried about his own life." ”
But there's no denying that what he's saying is true. Since the White Twilight Villa has done it, then they can't be afraid of others saying that such a thing can't be hidden, and they can't block the mouths of the Jianghu people. The corners of Gu Minluo's mouth crossed a subtle wisp of ridicule, his expression was indifferent, and he took a small sip of the teacup. If you want to achieve your goal, how can you do it without paying a price? Since Twilight Villa had chosen revenge and formed an alliance with them at the Flying Cliff, its reputation was naturally abandoned. If you are afraid that people's words are terrible, then don't do it in the first place, since you have done it, you naturally have the courage to bear all this, how can there be so many best of both worlds in this world.
Jiang Tingxue nodded, she agreed with Gu Minluo's words. But soon, her eyes dimmed a little, and she sighed lightly: "I don't know how my cousin is now, and Xiao Xiao, I heard that she also went with her cousin in that big battle." ”
She was inspired by this, and from the words of the storyteller, she thought of her relatives in Huizhou. For the past month or two, she had been following Gu Minluo on her travels, living in no fixed place, and although she wrote letters to Huizhou and Qiantang, she could not receive a reply, so she did not know anything about their situation. It's just that more than a month before leaving Qiantang, I received a letter from Ling Xiao, but the letter didn't mention too much about fighting and killing, but told her to defend the womanizer with more words.
"Don't worry, it should be fine, didn't you hear about it that day? In the battle of the sinkhole, Feitou Cliff was defeated. I think now, your sister-in-law has also gone back. Although Gu Minluo was plain on the surface, he couldn't calm down in his heart at this time, and he was resentful when he thought of the yellow-skinned old man who fought with him.
That day, the old man ruined the plan of the Guminra and them, so that they fell short in the end and suffered heavy casualties. However, it was impossible for him to tell Jiang Tingxue about these things, and he couldn't even say that he had saved Ling Xiao.
There's no right or wrong here, it's just a difference in position. Although he loves Jiang Tingxue deeply, the relationship between him and Jing Shenlu is also destined to be a permanent hostile relationship, and there are some things that he has no choice.
Moreover, he knew that in the eyes of his beloved, his stepfather was a heinous and bad person, and she did not have a good impression of Fei Che Cliff. If he revealed these things to her, it would inevitably arouse her suspicions, and she was afraid that what he intended to hide would be known to her. He now has a sense of gain and loss, if it really comes, will he still be able to keep her by his side? The results can be imagined.
Hearing Gu Minluo's comforting words, Jiang Tingxue also felt that there was some truth, now that her cousin and they had won, there would definitely be no more major incidents.
Moreover, the two letters she wrote had been sent for more than ten days, and she should be able to receive a reply soon, so as to understand the situation between her father and Ling Xiao. As for Jing Shenlu, all the big things have been dealt with, so she doesn't care about the trivial things of this wooden cousin, the fight is first-class, she will definitely not be able to suffer, and she doesn't need to care at all.
It didn't take long for the food they ordered to come up. Gu Minluo looked at the dishes that were being put on the table in turn, and then turned his gaze to the side face opposite, and said, "Tingxue, since you like that kind of free life, why don't we go out to travel after we stay here for a while?" ”
As long as she likes it, then he is willing to put her first in everything. He thought that after the two had been together for a long time, her feelings for him would eventually change, and he wanted to make the relationship between the two one closer.
