In the early morning of spring, the birds are singing and the air is filled with the faint fragrance of pear blossoms.

Su Man stretched his waist, got up from the bed, walked to the yard, washed up, did a set of aerobics, and helped Li Yuanfang fetch water and send it into the house.

"Miss, get up!"

"Why are you so early!" Li Yuanfang stretched out on the bed, opened his eyes with difficulty and looked at Su Man, who was alive and well.

"My father and mother will be in Yanling the day after tomorrow, and then I will be able to play Dabao and Xiaobao at home, and I am a little excited. Hurry up and wait and accompany me to the street to buy some kids' stuff. ”

"Got it! I'll get up now. ”

After that, the two first went to the tofu shop under the Wan'an Bridge and came to a bowl of tofu and Shih Tzu's water tofu. After that, I went to the not far An Kee snack shop to buy some snacks and wander all the way, and when the shops opened one after another, Su Man went to see a lot of children's things, rattles, pottery ringing balls, nine rings, bamboo dragonflies...... The big bags are full.

The two of them received a lot of goods in the morning, and when it was close to noon, when Wu Xiaosi went back to the house for dinner, he met the two of them who directly took something for Su Man and handed her two cold mung bean cakes. Su Man also grinned at him and said, "Fourth young master, good vision, Anji mung bean cake Yanling first!" ”

Li Yuanfang on the side looked at his fourth cousin slightly, and smiled secretly. This cousin's office is closest to the house, but he is too lazy to go back to the house for dinner in the past. Only now I come back every now and then to have lunch with the people in the house, and a few days ago, I asked her about Su Man's preferences, and today I gave mung bean cake.

However, Li Yuanfang also hinted that the fourth cousin Su Man had no affection for him, at most he was just a brother. It's only been the last few months, and Li Yuanfang doesn't want to bother Su Man about this, so let her live her last days happily.

Su Man walked behind the two of them and felt a little chilly on his back, he felt weird from the beginning of his door today, and it seemed that there was a look that had been following him. She looked back and saw that there was no special person, was she suspicious? Just when she wanted to see a shadow in the distance, she heard Li Yuanfang turn around and call her

"Xiaoxing, it's time to go home for dinner!"

"Oh, Miss!"

After that, Su Man crooked her neck, she should have thought too much, she jumped up and down and carried two boxes of chilled mung bean cakes into the martial arts.

It's just that a person came out of the shadow in the distance, and at this moment, the aura around him was so cold that the chasing wind on the side shivered a little.

"Master Hou, that person is really ......"

In the past three years, Su Man has grown a lot taller, and his voice is not as immature as in the past, and he is already a mature woman's voice. And she has always worn half a mask, she can only see her mouth and nose, and she has always existed as Li Yuanfang's maid Xiaoxing outside. Even if he was Su Man's secret guard in the past, Chasing the Wind was not sure that this person must be Su Man himself.

It's just that Ji Yechen knows very clearly that the person is Su Man, and his appearance and voice may have changed a little over the years, but his personality is the same, the other party will jump up and down when he is happy, and he will involuntarily snap his fingers when he is proud. And that young master is clearly interested in her, and this person's life here is really free. Ji Yechen's hand holding the wall almost made a finger print on the wall.

In the afternoon, Su Man fell asleep on the rattan chair in the yard in a little sleepy, Li Yuanfang shook his head slightly and went back to the house to get her a gauze towel to cover, it is easy to catch a cold when she rests in the shade of the tree in spring.

It's just that when she came out of the house, she saw a book that Su Man was reading scattered around the side of the chaise longue, but she was nowhere to be seen. Thinking about it, it is common for Li Yuanfang to catch crickets and quails when he encounters something urgent.

She looked at the flying pigeons in the sky, and it was time to receive a letter from the cuckoo today. At the beginning, the other party came with a letter every month or two, and then a letter every half a month, and now Li Yuanfang can receive a letter from Du Juan almost every other day. But she still came back once a month as always, but over the years, the other party seemed to have developed the habit of reading his letters.

Li Yuanfang watched the flying pigeon fly up from the eaves, flew out of Wufu and flew all the way south, passing through half of Yanling, and stopped on the roof of a house near the lake.

In the room under the roof, a woman was asleep in her bed, unaware that she had been taken captive to another house. When she woke up, the sun was setting outside the house, she rubbed her head slightly, and she had slept for a long time this afternoon.

"Yuan Fang..... When is it now? ”

Su Man still asked instinctively in a haze, but the next moment she realized that the surrounding environment was wrong, this was not Li Yuanfang's house. Listening to the sound of trickling water outside, this place doesn't look like a martial arts.

Su Man immediately got up and checked the room, feeling a sense of déjà vu, but he shouldn't have been here. She walked to the door and saw that there was no one guarding the house, and she was going to go out through the door, thinking that it was better not to startle the snake. She went to the back window and took a look, there was a small lake outside the window, the scenery was pleasant, but she didn't have time to appreciate it and it was better to leave as soon as possible.

As soon as Su Man's feet stepped on the window frame, he heard the cold sound of the door being pushed in from outside.

"I haven't seen you for a few years, don't you go out of the door and go through the window instead?"

She looked back at a person standing in the backlight at the door, her facial features could only see the outline, the other party was tall and thin, with silver hair and a slightly hoarse voice.

"This senior, is there something you did when you caught Xiaoxing?"

After that, Su Man instinctively touched the mask on his face, and then realized that the mask was gone. But I don't think anyone here knows my original self. She also continued to use the identity of Xiaoxing without changing her face.

It's just that the person on the other side stood there for a long time and didn't speak, Su Man frowned slightly and asked

"Senpai?"

It's just that the next moment, her neck was tightly pinched by the other party's hand, and when she met the other party's yin owl's eyes, Su Man felt that the blood in her body seemed to be stagnant for a moment.

"You ......"

"Don't you even know me?"

Su Man's bright eyes reflected the pale face under his eyes, and Ji Yechen, who was so thin that he was like two people in the past, moved her mouth twice and could hardly open her mouth. Seeing that the other party's original black hair was now snow-white, tears flowed down so uncontrollably, she raised her hand and touched the other party's face and choked

"How did you end up like this?"

How so? In that life, although it was painful for him and Pei Yuqing to be so deeply emotionally separated, in the end, he also forgot about each other in the rivers and lakes. In the end, he and Bai Qirui traveled everywhere and did chivalrous deeds by the way, but how could the person in front of him become like this now?

Ji Yechen just looked at the woman in front of him coldly, he slightly tightened the hand holding Su Man's neck, at this moment he really wanted to directly strangle the person in front of him, the person who betrayed him.

"Ahem, cough, cough, cough"

Su Man looked at the other party with difficulty breathing, her eyes were full of guilt, she didn't resist and lost consciousness for a while. Feeling that the other party's hand touching his face suddenly drooped, and his tearful eyes also closed, Ji Yechen immediately let go nervously.

Just in an instant, Su Man fell directly like a puppet with a broken thread, but she didn't fall to the ground but was directly hugged into Ji Yechen's arms.

After a while, Su Man woke up, she looked at Ji Yechen in front of her holding her hand like that, looking at her, there was no emotion in her eyes, so that people couldn't figure out what he was thinking at the moment.

"I'll give you a chance to explain, you have to think about how to answer!"

"Ah Chen!"

"Don't call me that! Su Man, you still have to think about a good answer, otherwise I won't be merciful next time! ”

Su Man looked at the other party's expressionless demeanor, which made her back chill slightly. If you come out and mix it up, you will have to pay it back sooner or later, and you have to bear the consequences if you leave selfishly in the first place.

"Master Ji, Ji Yanxi, who has lived with your grandmother for more than seven years, is from other places like me.

So your grandmother knew very well how uncomfortable it would be for those who were close to us to be when we left. At the time......"

Su is satisfied with the foot and said for an hour (the yard does not move (*・ω・)✄╰ひ╯)

"You said so much just to say that you decided to leave me at that time just to forget me as soon as possible, so that you can continue your original life when you go back, right?"

Hearing this, Su Man didn't refute but smiled slightly bitterly, as long as he let go of his feelings, the other party would naturally look at the problem much sharper.

"You only think of this place as an unexpected place to visit. We're just a bunch of people who have fun with you, and when you go back, you'll just think of it as a dream, and when you wake up, you'll go back to your own life, right, you'll forget about us, right? ”

"I won't forget, you and I will never forget."

"Who will not forget? Your father, brother, Li Yuanfang? Or her cousin? Ji Yechen suddenly leaned on Su Man and said coldly, "Didn't you leave three years ago just to forget me?" ”

"Ah Chen!"

"What more lies do you want to tell?"

"If I say I don't want to forget you, I just want someone to remember our past silently. I started to feel guilty about being selfish with you in the past, and now I just don't want to disturb your life anymore. Do you believe it? ”

Su Man knew that Ji Yechen's knees were confined at the moment, and the tense muscles showed that he didn't believe any of Su Man's words at all. He thinks about it, and it is difficult to change the idea that he believes. She just said what was in her heart, and it didn't seem to matter whether the other party believed it or not.

Ji Yechen stared at Su Man so coldly, he wanted to believe what she said but didn't dare to believe it.

"According to what you say, do you still have me in your heart now that you are happy here?"

"I'm sorry, I don't know how to convince you...... Woo."

Su Man's mouth was blocked by the other party before she finished speaking, and she snatched the breath in her mouth very rudely, without pity. Her hands were shackled above her head by Ji Yechen's hand and she couldn't move, and then the clothes she was wearing were also rudely torn off by Ji Yechen. The other party completely ignored her resistance, almost gnawing her neck collarbone all the way down. Seeing that the last piece of obstruction on his upper body was about to be removed by the other party, Su Man almost tried his best to break free from the shackles of the other party, and after pushing the other party away, he put his hands around his chest and looked at the other party with a frightened expression.

Ji Yechen looked back at Su Man condescendingly and without warmth, "Don't you want me to believe you?" ”

Hearing this, Su Man didn't know what to say, and the strangeness and coldness of the person in front of her made her tremble, and she was pitiful. In the quiet room, there was only Su Man's low sobbing, and when Ji Yechen reached out to her again, she instinctively retreated, but was shackled by the other party. Ji Yechen saw an emerald green pendant around Su Man's neck, which was the ring he proposed to her back then. Looking at the whitish red rope around Su Man's neck, she thought that she should have been carrying this ring for the past three years and had never taken it off.

"You're still with you!"

Su Man was silent, she just wanted to keep herself at a safe distance from the other party. The eyes were red and guilty, scared, disgusted, and the two of them turned out to be like this. Ji Yechen actually didn't know what he was going to do, he loved and hated her, hated this woman and didn't care about his life or death at all, he had been living in his daily thoughts about her for the past three years, and he was in great pain. If he hadn't heard Song Ci's confession by chance, he wouldn't have known that she was still alive in this world. And she flirts with others elsewhere as if nothing happened, nourishing life here, and she and she are completely dispensable.

"Su Man, you are really an extremely cruel woman!"

Ji Yechen couldn't hold back after all, grabbed Su Man's shoulder and asked the other party, "Do you know what kind of life I've lived in the past three years." Because you left abruptly in my sleep, I never slept peacefully after that, day and night, walking corpse. (N word accusation is omitted here (*・ω・)✄╰ひ╯) What did I do wrong, you tell me! ”
