Volume II: The Demon Palace, Chapter 20

"Look at you, you came back with such a thing after a trip, and I told you-"

Tantai Xia suddenly sat down and covered his head with a blanket, turned his head and ignored him.

Sikong Yang's expression was blank for a moment, and he didn't know where he offended her again, touched the tip of his nose, put the sticky thing on his hand in a box, and walked out of her bedroom.

That thing was right, she thought.

It completely pierced her inner thoughts.

Sikong Yang must die.

She felt for the dagger that had reappeared under her pillow, thinking that God was giving her another chance.

You see, even the way of heaven won't let you live, Sikong Yang, don't blame me.

The next day, Tantai Xia woke up naturally, and Luo Hua did not appear by her bedside.

The wound on her body was faintly itchy, and she took apart the gauze on her wrist and ankle and looked at it, and the pink flesh sprouts grew, but it was still too tender to be exposed.

She wrapped it back up.

"Knock knock—"

There was a knock on the door, and he barely put on his coat and answered, "Come in." ”

It was Sikong Yang, he changed into a light blue shirt today, with large silver dark lines on the collar and cuffs, and a jade pendant in the style of auspicious clouds tied around his waist, he sat down in the outer room and did not enter the bedroom.

Pouring himself a cup of tea, he said, "I went back last night to reflect on it, I was too Meng Lang, even if it was because I stabilized that strange thing, I shouldn't-"

"Say no more!"

Yutai Xia hurriedly interrupted him, and after his reminder, his shoulders were faintly hot, the kiss marks he sucked out last night were already bruised this morning, and she accidentally touched it with a trace of pain when she was dressing.

Her embarrassed look pleased Sikong Yang, and her red lips turned up with a slight smile.

"You and I have drunk the wine and become husband and wife, this round house is a natural thing-"

Halfway through his words, Tantaixia's hair rushed out without combing, his cheeks were flushed, and he stared at him with a pair of big sheared eyes.

Sikong Yang knew that he was wrong, and when he saw that she was really angry about what happened last night, he touched the tip of his nose and didn't continue.

"Ahem, the gauze on your body needs to be replaced, and I came to help you change the gauze."

With a wave of his hand on the table, several neat stacks of snow-white gauze appeared.

When Taixia heard that Sikong Yang was going to help him change the gauze, the flush on his cheeks just went down and came up again.

"Where's Luohua?"

Sikong Yang leisurely divided the gauze and said indifferently: "Today is the March auction in Qianyuan City, it is very lively, she went early in the morning. ”

Qianyuan City? Auctions?

Two unfamiliar words made Taixia frown and think, it turned out that Luo Hua was not imprisoned in the Demon Palace, she could still go outside to play.

"I just thought, anyway, you and I are husband and wife-"

"We're not!"

His words were interrupted again and again, no matter how good his temper was, his face was also a little gloomy at the moment.

"Taixia, just in moderation."

He put away his relaxed gesture in front of her, got up and walked to the door, calling out to the guards patrolling outside.

"Go find a maid."

After that, he ignored Taixia and walked away.

She sat down slowly on the table, a few drops of cold sweat sliding from the corners of her forehead.

The lion pretended to be a kitten in front of her for so long that she would forget how ferocious he was when he tore apart other animals.

But she can't immerse herself in the gentle township that Sikong Yang fabricated for her, and there is no marriage between them.

Mixed with cold sweat, there was a tear in the corner of her eye.

By the time the guards brought the maid in, she had already tied her hair and sat on a stool outside, taking a teacup and studying it carefully.

"Miss, the maid has been brought."

The guard stooped and saluted, as if he had said something on purpose.

Taixia was a little surprised, she had been wandering around the Demon Palace for a long time in the past few days, and the guards and maids she met were like dumb people who couldn't even say a word, and she thought that Sikong Yang had deliberately used some method to make them unable to speak.

It turned out that this was not the case, she put down her teacup and glanced at the guard in front of her.

He was dressed in the same black clothes as everyone else, and his body was tall, indistinguishable from the others.

But his voice was familiar.

She frowned, her mind constantly comparing the sounds she had heard.

Something suddenly came to mind.

The guards had turned away and closed the door for her.

The moment the door was about to close, the guard raised his head, and the familiar face of Yutai Xia suddenly appeared in her pupils.

She quickly lowered her head to hide her shock.

How could Lin Xiangchen appear here?!

The maid lowered her eyebrows and eyes throughout the whole process, bent over, and carefully changed the gauze for her, during which she accidentally touched the wound, and she looked up at Tantai Xia in horror.

Tan Taixia was very flustered in her heart, thinking about Lin Xiangchen's affairs, and she didn't have the heart to take care of the physical pain.

Seeing her absent-mindedness, the maid breathed a sigh of relief and became more cautious.

After changing the gauze, the maid left, and Taixia stood up and wanted to go to Sikong Yang to test it, but she almost fell down in a daze.

She quickly stood firm on the table, her stomach gurgling at the right time, and she realized that she hadn't eaten breakfast yet.

The nervousness was diluted a little, and Taixia thought that in the morning, she had just taken Sikong Yang Qi away.

Now was the right time to sell badly, she clutched her stomach and went out of the room to the kitchen.

In the past, when she had never been disadvantaged in the Lin family's food, not to mention that after the death of the old lady of the Lin family, Lin Xiangchen's two elder brothers found special snacks from all over the world, that is, Lin Xiangchen would bring her something he thought was delicious when he was still young.

Now that I think back on these, I realize that I was raised by the Lin family to be a real Miss Jiao, except for piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she has never even touched a needle and thread.

How much kindness Sikong Yang gave to the Lin family to make them treat Taixia so much, she didn't know this.

She only knew that if something happened to Lin Xiangchen here, she would not be able to forgive herself for drawing her sword and killing herself.

Lin Xiangchen is not only the hope of the Lin family, but also her hope.

Sikong Yang must never be allowed to find out that Lin Xiangchen is here, if the past between her and Lin Xiangchen is known to him, who knows if he will be angry with him.

She didn't dare bet.

So, Taixia, who didn't touch the spring water with ten fingers, went to Sikong Yang with a bowl of noodles that were not guaranteed except for appearance.

Luo Hua told her that Sikong Yang went back to the chess room to play chess when he was depressed, so Taixia went directly to the chess room.

Sure enough.

Sikong Yang held a chess piece in each hand, and looked at the white jade chessboard in front of him expressionlessly.

Yutai Xia took a deep breath and curled the corners of his mouth, allowing himself to get used to the arc of his smile.

With an awkward expression on her face, she walked up to Sikong Yang with her face.

"I haven't had breakfast yet, would you like to eat along?"
