336 Self-reproach
Shen Yue turned her head to look at her, under the moonlight and starlight, her palm-sized little face looked even more white as jade, holding the orange-red sweet potato, which made her hands more slender and white, and even the nails that were not coated with Kodan were pink and tender like peach petals blooming on the branches.
If she knew that he compared her to the cat she disliked the most, and even hated and feared, she was afraid that she would blow up her hair and show her claws, right?
Shen Yue tugged at the corners of his mouth, hid his smile, lowered his head and opened another lotus leaf, picked up a fried chestnut that was still a little hot, and peeled it off.
He was still proficient, but in a moment, he had already peeled off the chestnut shell, and the chestnut meat was still intact, and it was fed to Ye Xinyi's lips.
Ye Xinyi was stunned, turned his head to look at his eyes that were as dark as the night sea, opened his mouth, and ate the chestnut meat, and said with a smile while eating, "It's so sweet and fragrant!" ”
Shen Yue smiled, then lowered his head to peel the chestnuts again.
Ye Xinyi frowned, "Don't be busy peeling it for me, you can eat it yourself!" ”
Shen Yue didn't raise his head, "I'm not hungry!" ”
Ye Xinyi's eyebrows furrowed even tighter, how could he not be hungry? After lunch, he went to the lotus pond for a long time, and he didn't eat dinner until now......
Ye Xinyi stepped forward and fed the roasted sweet potato in his hand to his lips.
Shen Yue was stunned for a moment, raised his head and looked at her with some confusion.
"I know you're worried, but the more you do this, the more you have to fill your stomach. You have to eat enough to have the energy, otherwise you are hungry and have no strength, how can you do things? At your age, do you want me to teach you this truth? Ye Xinyi made a small face and counted him in a calm voice.
Shen Yue's eyes flickered, and he suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, and the corners of his mouth opened for a moment, but Ye Xinyi had already raised his hand and gestured at him, obviously not letting him speak, "Don't say that you are not hungry, even if you are not hungry, I have to let you eat." You have a bad spleen and stomach, and if you are ruined again, it's really hard to say when I became a widow. If you marry me, you are responsible for me, and if you die early, especially if you starve to death, then I will never let you go even if you are chased underground. ”
It's just a roasted sweet potato, and it actually rises to the height of life and death as he speaks, Shen Yue is really ...... Speechless.
"What? You don't like this as I've eaten, huh? Ye Xinyi's eyes narrowed and stared at him threateningly.
Shen Yue's heart swelled with a faint warmth and sweetness, and he finally compromised, opened his mouth and took a bite, squinting his eyes and praised, "It's delicious!" ”
He was happy when he ate Ye Xinyi, and hurriedly fed him another bite, "It's delicious, right?" ”
Shen Yue nodded while chewing the sweet sweet potato in his mouth.
The two of them sat together on the stone under the tree, and you ate the two sweet potatoes one bite at a time, and peeled the fried chestnuts, and you and I ate them one by one.
Until Ye Xinyi couldn't help it and hiccuped slightly, both of them were stunned, looking at each other in a daze, and then, suddenly, they burst into laughter.
Shen Yue stretched out her hand and gently hugged Ye Xinyi's shoulder, while she leaned on his shoulder obediently and naturally.
It was so hot and stuffy that there was not even a trace of wind, and the heavens and the earth seemed to be caged in a huge bag, impermeable. Even if they leaned on it like this, it was only for a moment, and it was sweat all over their bodies, but none of them was willing to leave each other, so they were tired of sweating together.
Ye Xinyi raised his head and looked at the dense shadows of the trees overhead. She has good eyesight, and she can see clearly through the lanterns hanging on the street to the left and right. I didn't even find out that it was a huge acacia tree, I am afraid that it was some years old, not to mention the thick branches, and the branches and leaves were also slim, but it had not been rained for a long time, and the leaves seemed a little wilted, but the branches and leaves were still scattered with pink velvety acacia flowers, and a layer of pink mist bloomed on the green crown.
Ye Xinyi looked at the tree and the flower, but his thoughts had already drifted away, "Just now Xie Ming said something to me, I always felt as if there was something else. After a moment's pause, she finally spoke softly.
Shen Yue frowned, turned his head to look at her who was leaning on her shoulder, and did not speak.
Ye Xinyi sighed, and repeated what Xie Ming said to her earlier to Shen Yue, and when Shen Yue heard it, her eyebrows tightened, and she lowered her eyelids, covering the surging dark tide at the bottom of her eyes.
The uneasiness in Ye Xinyi's heart has been surging for a long time, and at this moment, it can no longer be suppressed, "If he can be suspicious, others will naturally be able to do it too." Let alone...... The scholar is inconspicuous in the capital, how could someone target him and set up such a situation where he can't argue? If it weren't for you, who had befriended him, it would have been ......."
The latter words were not spoken, but Shen Yue and she knew each other.
Shen Yue grabbed her hand in her palm, in such weather, her palms were already a dense layer of cold sweat, and her fingertips were even colder. "I think the same thing as the scholar."
"But how is that possible?" Ye Xinyi exclaimed, "Hasn't he been hiding well all these years?" Why would she ...... at this time" At the same time as her words fell, she suddenly thought of something, her expression was stunned, her apricot eyes were slightly dumbfounded, and she fell somewhere in the night in nothingness. After a moment, her eyes flickered, and she cautiously raised her eyes to look at him, "Could it be...... Is it because of me? ”
Her relationship with the Xia family, not to be said by others, is clear to the people of the Suluo Sect. And she and Shen Yue have long guessed that the Suo Luo Sect, or that the Nanyue Imperial Court and some people in the court are colluded and colluded, and they did not tell her life experience, they must have their considerations. But the identity of the scholar has been hidden for eleven years without any problems, and if something goes wrong at this time, it is really difficult to say why. The scholar treats her differently, she can notice it, and others can naturally do it. If the identity of the scholar is found out through this, then ......
The more Ye Xinyi thought about it, the more cold he felt in his heart, and the hand held in Shen Yue's palm was not only colder, but even trembled slightly.
Shen Yue sighed, raised his other arm, and hugged her tightly in his arms, "It's hard to say what the reason is right now, and it's not even sure if the other party has determined the identity of the scholar, can't it be just a temptation?" And, even if it's what you think, don't blame yourself, it's not your fault. ”
Ye Xinyi leaned on his shoulder, but the corners of his eyes were slightly moistened, how could it not be her fault? The scholar didn't recognize her earlier, so she naturally had concerns about this, but she noticed his abnormality, and she didn't like to hide it the most, so she had to ask him...... What's more, if you don't care about him, with the caution of a scholar, you shouldn't show your feet.
"Huanhuan'er, don't worry too much. Take 10,000 steps back, even if it is the worst outcome, they don't dare to touch the scholars easily. On the contrary, he is an important bargaining chip, and they will be even more nervous about his safety. ”
