Chapter 101: Whereabouts
Bai Yi refused several times with various reasons before realizing that Bai Ling was serious.
"You are sober," Bai Yi cried and laughed, "the road is unstable, you want to dance?" β
"I want it, I want it."
Bai Yi felt that Bai Ling's whole weight was pressed against him.
She clutched the clothes on her arms and looked at herself as if she had willfulness written on her face.
Bai Yi sighed.
"Do you have to do it now?"
"Hmm."
"Can't you wait until you're better?" He whispered, "By the time you can get down to the ground yourselfβ"
"I don't want to wait, I don't want to wait for a moment...... Right now, immediately," Bai Ling stubbornly took another step towards Bai Yi's side, "...... Right away. β
After a stalemate for a while, Bai Yi couldn't help it, and in the end he could only nod, and the only condition he said was not to be in the snow, but to go back to the house to jump.
After helping Bai Ling into the house and sitting down, Bai Yi asked her to wait at the table for a while, and ran out of the room quickly by herself.
Bai Ling waited for a cup of tea in the house, and was wondering if Bai Yi had taken the opportunity to run away, when he suddenly heard footsteps from the yard.
She followed the sound and looked at the door, and sure enough, it was Bai Yi who pushed the door, and as soon as he entered the house, he turned around and closed the door, preventing the cold wind from outside from blowing into the house.
"What are you doing-"
Bai Ling's inquiry came to an abrupt end before he could finish his question, and Bai Yi turned aroundβhe had shaved his beard.
Bai Ling sat on the chair and was suddenly stunned.
Thousands of emotions suddenly came to her mind at this time, after shaving off the beard of her upper lip and chin, Bai Yi finally changed back to the way she remembered, as if someone had suddenly taken all these years of time away from him, and everything returned to the courtyard when she was in Pingjing before.
"It's suddenly shaved like this, it feels weird......" Bai Yi approached and touched his chin a little unaccustomedly, "Why are you looking at me like this, you said you wanted to shave." β
Bai Ling lowered his eyes and smiled, "That's it...... Unexpectedly. β
"Come on."
The two stood up silently, Bai Yi held Bai Ling's right hand and whispered to her to put her left hand on her right shoulder.
Thinking about the wound on Bai Ling's lower back, Bai Yi took a deep breath, avoided the affected area very carefully, and gently held the position under Bai Ling's right arm.
"You just shaved your beard...... Bai Ling looked up at Bai Yi, "Why did you go for so long?" β
"I haven't danced for a long time, so I've been practicing by myself outside for a while......" Bai Yi's eyes looked at the feet of the two people below, and when he almost adjusted his posture, "I can't remember a lot." β
"It's okay," Bai Ling smiled, "You just teach me, I wouldn't have ...... in the first place."
Bai Yi was even more uncomfortable by Bai Ling's reaction, he frowned slightly, and his expression became serious.
Bai Ling couldn't make a big stride at the moment, he could only stretch his legs and feet meaningfully, the two of them moved forward and backward very lightly on the soft blanket in the room, Bai Yi counted the beats softly, and took Bai Ling to dance at a very slow speed.
"Eh," Bai Yi was slightly surprised, "you...... I will teach it. β
Bai Ling leaned on Bai Yi, a little funny, "It's just one, two, three...... It's almost the same as walking, why not? β
"That means your body is well coordinated......
Bai Yi smiled, he held Bai Ling's hand, and led her slowly to the edge of the blanket under his feet, and then turned in another direction and shook it leisurely.
Bai Ling's originally clumsy steps became just right in such a small movement, and she had been staring at herself and Bai Yi's insteps, and when she found a slight rhythm, she looked up at Bai Yi again.
Bai Yi's gaze passed over her and looked at the window not far away.
He hummed a melody slowly, and the melody was slowed down by him, and it took him a while to hear that it was Shostakovich's Waltz.
She hummed along with Bai Yi, gently stepping on the beat of the melody.
When the song ended, the two stopped in unison, Bai Yi retracted his gaze and looked at Bai Ling, "...... By the way, what did you just say that you didn't expect? β
Bai Ling was still immersed in the music in his head, and gently "Huh? "Yes.
"It's just that when I first came in, you looked at me," Bai Yi became a little uncomfortable again, his eyes flickered, and he said in a low voice, "I asked you why you looked at me like that, and you said you didn't expect it." β
"Oh......" Bai Ling replied, smiling, "You said that." β
"It's still weird to shave...... right," Bai Yi said to himself, "I can't get used to it myself-"
"I don't think so." Bai Ling sighed softly, leaning on Bai Yi's shoulder a little tiredly, she hugged him like she did when she was a child, and said in a low voice, "Because you look too handsome now, I didn't expect it." β
Bai Yi laughed.
"Don't grow a beard anymore." Bai Ling said softly, "I don't like to see you grow a beard...... is a good handsome young man, why do you want to dress up like a little old man. β
"Didn't I say it before, when I go to see someone else......"
"Those who doubt your medical skills because they think you are young will let them see an older doctor." Bai Ling smiled and said, "You are not the only doctor in the world...... Why do you want to steal someone else's business? β
Bai Yi laughed again.
Bai Ling didn't have an answer, and looked up again, "Huh? β
"Okay," Bai Yi lowered his eyes, "listen to you." β
β¦β¦
That night, there was a neighing of horses outside the courtyard gate, and Bai Yi went out to check - most likely Wei Shishi had returned with Bai Shijun.
However, as soon as he went out, he collided with a young man in armor.
He hurriedly stepped forward to help the other party up.
The other party also quickly stood up, and in the dark, the young man asked, "Are you Dr. Lin?" β
"Ahh Bai Yi nodded, "I am." β
"I'm here to deliver a letter."
Bai Yi was stunned for a moment, "...... It's cold here, so let's go inside and talk. β
About half an hour later, Bai Yi went to Bai Ling's room with a letter that had been opened, and when he pushed the door, Bai Ling had indeed gotten off the bed again.
There was a light in her eyes, "Is Dad and Fourteen back?" β
"No, my father was taken to Yanzhou Mansion by a distant mountain guest," Bai Yi put the letter in his hand on the table and pushed it in front of Bai Ling, "Specifically, look at this letter." β
"Distant Mountain Guest......" Bai Ling vaguely felt that this name seemed to have been heard somewhere, and at a glance, Bai Ling immediately recognized the handwriting on the letter, "Is it Dad's letter?" β
"Hmm." Bai Yi sat next to Bai Ling, gritted his teeth and exhaled, "He still decided to go to Yanzhou first, and Fourteen didn't worry about him going alone, so he also went with him." This old man is reallyβ"
