Chapter Twenty-Six: An Intertwined Web
Anyway, the other party is also the one who has just done him a great favor, so it doesn't matter if he laughs a few times at this time. Adhering to the caution when he was in the palace, Ruoxi's waist that had just straightened up bent down, "Thanks to this adult's help, I am grateful for the little one." ”
"It's really the same as the legend - be careful." Hearing the other party's contemptuous and bantering tone, Ruoxi took a breath, "The little one is a slave, and it is right to abide by one's duty." ”
"But just now you had the courage to refuse that adult's order, which really impressed me, Bai Ruoxi."
Until the other party easily pronounced his name, Ruoxi had fully understood that this man had completely understood his own details.
Looking at Ruoxi's embarrassed appearance of pursing her lips, the man in white smiled lightly, no longer continued to tease her, and glanced at the little boy standing beside her with angry eyes, "Whether it is the capital or the Zhou Mansion, it is no different, they are all places where they step on the wrong side and break their bones, those things that have nothing to do with themselves, it is better to touch them less, don't make trouble for yourself, let alone trouble for Your Highness." The man in white who said this turned away, and when his figure brushed past her, he paused slightly, "Introduce yourself, my surname is Bai Mingjiang, and I am just a diner of the Third Highness." ”
Parasite? Believe in you to have a ghost!
Ruoxi scolded unceremoniously in her stomach, but her mouth was sweet, "Thank you Mr. Bai for your advice, I wrote it down." ”
Seeing Bai Jiang, who was dressed in white, drifting away, the smell of gardenias he left behind lingered on the tip of his nose, Ruoxi frowned, turned his head to look at the little ghost beside him, and looked at the bitterness and hatred on his face, and couldn't help but laugh, I don't know why, she has an indescribable good impression of this child in her heart, "Look, how dangerous it is outside." Alright, little ghost, take these delicious foods home. ”
The little boy pouted, "I'm fourteen years old. ”
"So what?"
"So stop calling me a little ghost!"
Ruoxi looked at the child's blushing face with amusement, looking at this figure, she really couldn't tell that the child was actually fourteen years old. But she's only two years younger than herself, but her height is ridiculously different, only up to her shoulders. Hearing him say this, Ruoxi smiled dumbly and patted him on the shoulder, sure enough, whether it is fourteen or fifteen, it can still stay at a willful age.
"If you don't want to be called a ghost, just report your name." Anyway, this kid is quite likable. If you ignore his oily little face.
"Hua Shao." The child raised his face and introduced himself very formally, and for the first time let Ruoxi see clearly his black and white eyes, the pure black and moonlight white halo was filled with the kind of stubbornness and tenacity that Ruoxi missed deeply, I don't know if it was because of the cold weather or something else, the child's eyes seemed to be flooded with a foggy vapor, just like a mirror, shining the purest and flawless light into Ruoxi's heart.
calmed down a little and gave him a reassuring smile, "Hua Shao? It's a pretty domineering name. ”
Seeing her laugh, Hua Shao's expression softened, "Hey, he just called you Bai Ruoxi, is Bai Ruoxi your name?" The hand unconsciously took the hand of the girl next to him, who didn't look very strong, and the other party naturally held him tightly, without the slightest dislike for the oil stains on it.
"Ah, Bai Ruoxi, it's a ......" The three words behind Ruoxi's voice were very small, and he was almost silent by the clouds that gradually gathered.
"Alright, it's not too early, let's go home." I have to let this kid go home quickly, and be troubled by the willful and arrogant county lord, I'm afraid that if I don't go back at this time, I will be unable to escape the clutches tonight.
"I ...... Can't go back. "Hua Shao suddenly lost the momentum he had just now, like a little girl who was angry." I'll just stay outside...... Leave me alone. ”
Although I don't quite understand what the other party means, since I was rejected so directly, there is no point in dwelling on this issue.
"Well, then, I'm going back, take care, little brother." Ruoxi lifted the empty blue on the ground, turned around and walked towards the vermilion gate that could no longer be vermilion.
"Sister Ruoxi!"
"Huh?"
Naturally, Ruoxi turned around and saw Hua Shao's tangled expression, "What's wrong?" ”
Hua Shao ran two steps, caught up with her footsteps, and whispered on tiptoe, "Sister tonight...... You'll want to stay away from the house on the north side. With that, he galloped away.
Hey? Twice in a day in a row warned to stay away from the north...... What does that mean exactly?
***
When the night was approaching, Wei Sa staggered through the door with a drunken body.
It's just that...... Push the door...... Be...... Thereupon...... What you see when you open the door...... Is......
The stunned Ruoxi sat next to her small bed, grabbing the hibiscus cake she had just stolen from the kitchen with one hand, and sending half of the pig's foot to her mouth with the other hand, half of her toes still exposed to her mouth, and watched the drunken man push the door generously and fall on top of her.
Wei Sa's hair crown, which was still neatly combed during the day, doesn't know where to go now. A black silk cascade hangs down behind him, and on such a night, people can't help but think of the word chaos. And most importantly...... The drunk man was smashing his head on her round stomach that she had just eaten, and Ruoxi, who was full of pig's feet, could only let out a sad sigh pitifully, and reflexively pushed away the guy who was in the way with his oily palm.
"Bang!" Wei Sa, who was pushed down on the railing of the bed, seemed to have woken up a little, opened his eyes, and groped the edge of the bed with his hands as if trying to sit up.
"Hey! Don't mess around! Ruoxi barely swallowed a mouthful full of food and yelled at Wei Sa's hands moving back and forth on his body, "How much alcohol did you drink to get drunk like this?" ”
"Isn't it good to get drunk once in a while? Creek? It seems that he was really knocked to wake up a little, and he could see who the person in front of him was, Ruoxi twisted his brows and moved back, "Your Highness, it's better to send you back to the bedroom." ”
"No, no." Wei Sa pursed her mouth childishly, her evil face was matched with such a coquettish expression, and the goosebumps that Ruoxi had fell to the ground, is this the legendary drunken gaffe?
So, in Ruoxi's mind, he naturally reasoned the following scene-
A man broke into a woman's boudoir after drinking, a woman was so shy that she pushed a man down on the bed, and then a man pushed down a woman with a heavy drunkenness, and then a night of romance and turmoil. Inverted phoenix......
"It's hot." When Wei Sa was distracted by Ruoxi, he rubbed against her side, wrapped around her waist very standardly, buried her head in the softest place, and hiccuped very comfortably.
Although "vomiting ......" is in the arms of a beautiful man, the smell of this man is really disgusting. Ruoxi felt the urge to slap him against the wall.
"Your Highness?"
The perfect moonlight poured on the handsome man's face, and the holy moonlight with his evil face outlined an incredible charm, but the careful Ruoxi soon discovered that in such a winter night, Wei Sa's closed eyes actually transmitted a silent cold silence.
Sure enough, this person's soul is still lonely, right?
I don't know why, Ruoxi suddenly had such a feeling.
"Ahh Flow...... Walk on the water! ”
Suddenly there was such a sharp scream outside the door, as if a sharp knife pierced through this cold silence from the bottom of her heart, if her brain was still functioning normally at the moment, the meaning of the sentence walking water was - on fire?
Let go of Wei Sa's drowsy head, get up and run out of the door to take a look, the moment he pushed the door open, Ruoxi was stunned, the direction of the fire was Wei Sa's bedroom, the north wing of the Zhou Mansion!
"Donor, it's not good to go out today, especially in the north."
What the mad woman said suddenly flashed in her mind, bad for the north, is that what it refers to? When I opened the door, I found that when she and Wei Sa were pushing you and me in the house, the fire in the wing room had ignited the two surrounding rooms out of control, and at this moment the entire north was billowing smoke, and the crackling sound of the beams or wood burning was about to be exhausted, the smell of burning, the bright firelight filled the sky in the north, and in the flickering firelight, Ruoxi unintentionally found a thin figure running towards the back wall, but the people of the Zhou Mansion were busy fighting the fire, No one noticed the suspicious figure, let alone the little figure that had completely climbed over the edge of the wall.
Although the situation outside was chaotic at the moment, and although Ruoxi was stunned at the moment, she still clearly saw the swift skill of the shadow when it climbed over the edge of the wall, and ...... He sat on the wall and smiled at the point of her room. It's as if the naughty fairy in the dark night is proud of her prank.
"Hua Shao......" is him, right? The pair of black and white eyes didn't seem to be at any distance from her, as if they were looking at her in the afternoon.
"Sister tonight...... You'll want to stay away from the house on the north side. ”
Is that really the case? Hua Shao...... Who are you? Is it really just an ordinary poor child?
Seeing the shadow disappear completely, Ruoxi closed the door.
People in this world really live more with masks, probably everyone has a past that they don't want to touch, they all have an unshakable mission that must be completed, but they also have people who don't want to hurt, how weird is this half-sin, half-good mentality!
However, since the place where the fire started was in the room where Wei Sa lived, the purpose of the arson was self-evident.
Are all these people coming for him? It's really a troublesome character everywhere you go.
"Are you worried about me?"
Ruoxi looked back in shock, only to see that the drunken man had been tilted on her pillow, his upper body slightly raised, and the evil smile on his lips that she was too familiar to be familiar with, the kind of chic nature that seemed to be under control.
Ruoxi's heart suddenly had a kind of falling out of control.
"Rest assured, the Twelve Golden Armors won't let those miscellaneous pieces slip through their fingers." Wei Sa sat up from the bed, his fingers habitually stroking the inseparable royal blue ring on his left hand, and the bright cold light on it flashed, "What awaits him outside can only be a net of heaven and earth." ”
