Huo Ning stayed in that strange place for three days, and generally did not go out unless necessary, and even the three meals a day were specially ordered by the man to be sent to his room. As a result, although Huo Ning didn't know his specific identity, he still recognized him from the bottom of his heart and felt that he was a person to make friends with.

It's just, where's Ji Dusk?

After living peacefully for three days, Huo Ning couldn't help it after all, and asked tentatively when the man was dining with him one day. He still remembered the man's gaze so deep that his soul trembled after hearing his question clearly.

After a long time, the man lowered his head, as if he re-threw his thoughts back into the delicate food on the table, but still answered Huo Ning's question.

"The child who is with you is very safe, you can rest assured, you don't have to worry about him every day."

Not only is it safe, but it even eats with you every day.

Of course, Ji Du didn't want him to know about this for the time being.

After Huo Ning came here inexplicably, a second strange thing happened, and he inexplicably returned to the inn where he lived before. Beside him, it was Ji Dui, who slept ruddyly.

Touching the child's warm face, Huo Ning confirmed that he had really returned to the inn.

He got up gently, making sure that he did not wake up the child who had fallen into a dark sleep, Huo Ning picked up the blanket on the window, gently covered the child's chest, and sat alone on the windowsill, looking up at the moon hanging in the night.

I've been away from home for a long time, and I don't know when I'll be able to go back.

Ji Dui, who was lying on the bed and fell asleep, quietly opened his eyes and stared at Huo Ning, hiding something in his eyes that others couldn't understand.

You sit at the window and look at the scenery, but you don't know that you are also the scenery that others are seeing.

***

The early morning birdsong is always so annoying, at least Huo Ning himself is reluctant to hear them. Yesterday, I sat in a daze on the window, and only in the middle of the night did I touch the quilt with my hair scattered, and I didn't dare to touch the sleeping child next to me when I was cold, for fear that I would accidentally toss people and catch a cold.

Huo Ning, who was dizzy, barely put on his clothes, and only after washing did he find a problem, the child was gone.

He was about to go out to look for it, but saw Ji Du open the door and come in with a steaming bowl of black goo.

"Where did you go?"

Huo Ning was too lazy to tie his hair, not to mention that as an adult man in the twenty-first century, he wouldn't do this. So I can only let my hair fall behind my back, which is a little more lazy.

Ji Du didn't react for a while, and her soft hair swept across her palms several times, leaving itchiness. He clenched his palms in vain, only to find that he could not control his hair.

"Huh?"

Seeing that Ji Du didn't answer, Huo Ning glanced at him suspiciously, but found that his palms had been burned red by the freshly baked medicine. The leisure in Huo Ning's eyes instantly dissipated, replaced by a serious expression, he frowned and held Ji Dui's hand in his palm, while taking out the elixir in the Qiankun bag and applying it to his hand.

Fortunately, the unreliable master prepared a lot of medicine for him when he knew that he was going out to get rid of the demon, otherwise he would have been at a loss today only staring at Ji Dui's injury.

The young man's eyelashes drooped, staring earnestly at his palm. The hand movements are very light, and little by little the ointment is applied to the reddened skin. The black hair was constantly fluttering in the wind, brushing Ji Dusk's face.

He pursed his lips, suppressing the inappropriate thoughts in his heart.

I want to snatch him back.

I won't let it out for the rest of my life.
