When they returned to Ling's Mansion, it was already dawn. The weather in the morning was cool, Yingning cried for half the night, her eyes were swollen, and her head felt groggy. I was beside her and said softly: "You go back and have a good rest, the matter has been settled." Your body has not fully recovered, so don't hurt your body again because of sadness. ”

Ying Ning stretched out her hand and rubbed her temples, and said lightly: "I have a sense of proportion, I don't need you to care." ”

I was stunned and sighed slightly. It seems that it will take a long time for Yingning to fully accept him. After a while, he said again: "You've arrived at the house, and it's time to lock me up." ”

Ying Ning suddenly stopped, looked at him carefully, and said in a deep voice after a long time: "No need, you will be my guard in the future and protect me closely." ”

I was pleasantly surprised and said with a smile, "Really? Ning'er, can I stay by your side? ”

Ying Ning didn't know what to be happy about, and said impatiently: "Naturally, it's true." ”

They walked together, and when they were about to reach Yingning's room, they saw Qingtong walking towards them with a few people. Seeing Yingning, Qingtong showed a relaxed look on her face, and said without approaching her: "Miss, you can count it back." Childe is in your room, making a big fire, and is about to punish Miss Yun at this moment. ”

"What? Why did he punish Yun'er? Ying Ning asked puzzled.

"Childe went to see you in the morning, but you weren't in the room. Miss Yun said you went to see ......" Qingtong paused, looked at Wu Ji behind Yingning, and continued: "I found that you disappeared together, and Gongzi thought that you and the ghost king had run away. Childe thinks that Yun'er is not taking good care of her and is not optimistic about Miss, so she wants to punish Yun'er. ”

Ying Ning was anxious when she heard this, how could she run? Even if she wants to run, it has nothing to do with Yun'er. She hurried into the room, and when she got there, it was a mess. Bottles and cans were smashed to pieces, and tables and chairs were kicked to pieces. Yun'er knelt on the ground, sobbing quietly. The cheeks were flushed, like palm prints.

Ying Ning walked to Yejun's side, grabbed his sleeve, and said angrily: "It's my fault that I went out without permission, why are you angry with Yun'er." ”

Yejun turned his head to look at her, his eyes were deep green, and he was indeed angry. He glared at her fiercely, pinched her wrist with his backhand, and asked in an extremely gloomy tone, "Where have you been?" ”

Ying Ning was pinched by him, and she could almost hear the sound of bones. She frowned and said, "You let go of me, it hurts." ”

Wu Qi, who had been following her, stepped forward and grabbed Yejun's arm, and said in a deep voice: "You let go, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind." ”

Yejun raised his eyes and looked at Wu Qi, his eyes full of disgust. He narrowed his eyes and looked solemn: "I won't let go today, I want to see how you treat me politely." ”

I was about to have a seizure, but Yingning said to him: "You let go first." ”

I didn't want to, and Yingning said, "He won't do anything to me." ”

He finally reluctantly let go of his hand, and Yejun still held her wrist, but he was relieved. He stared at her and asked, "Why did you let him go?" Where did you go with him? ”

Ying Ning replied calmly: "I went to the underworld, today is the day of my mother's reincarnation, I want to see her." He knew everything about the underworld, so I asked him to take me there. ”

"That's all?" Yejun asked, seemingly unbelievably unable to believe her answer.

Ying Ning was helpless, and said slowly: "That's all, what do you think I can do with him?" ”

Yejun finally let go of her hand, looked at Yun'er, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said coldly: "You get up, if Miss has such a bad time in the future, I will not spare you, and I will definitely punish you for dereliction of duty." ”

Yingning helped Yun'er up, frowning and not very satisfied: "Yun'er and I are like sisters, not the maids who served me in the past. How can you be so harsh on her, she doesn't take care of me, and she is not derelict in her duties. ”

Yejun looked at her coldly, his green eyes deepened and deepened, and he said, "Ning'er, she is like a sister to you, and she is not like me." My goodness is mild, and it is directed only at you, not to others. I didn't kill her, it's for your sake. ”

Ying Ning had nothing to say, and what he said was that she had no right to ask him how to treat the people around her. Ying Ning didn't say anything anymore, stretched out her sleeve to wipe her tears for Yun'er, and comforted her in a low voice. Yun'er was probably frightened, she should have never seen Yejun make such a big fire. The whole person was trembling, and his eyes were full of fear.

Yejun looked at Yejun, and the anger in his heart was not extinguished. He shouted at Qingtong outside the door: "Come on, lock Zhong Wuqi in the dark room." ”

Qingtong came in the door, and he really wanted to catch me, but Yingning interrupted: "Slow, you don't have to lock him up in the future." Let him stay with me and be my guard. ”

Yejun's face suddenly changed, and he said coldly: "You all go out, I have something to say to Ying Ning alone." ”

Yun'er and Bronze went out resignedly, and only Wu Ji was still standing in place. Seeing the turbulent waves under Yejun's eyes, Yingning looked at Wu Qi and said, "You go out first." I didn't move for a while, and Yingning said coldly: "You are my guard, so naturally you have to listen to me." Get out! ”

I couldn't, so I had to go out unwillingly.

"Yingning, are you when I don't exist? You go with him to the underworld, and let him be your bodyguard. Yingning, when will you see me? Yejun stared at her, and there was emotion in his eyes that she couldn't understand.

Ying Ning didn't know how to answer him, she wanted to go to the underworld, and indeed the first thing that came to mind was Zhong Wuqi. As for being her bodyguard, she must not keep him locked up all the time, otherwise it would be useless to keep him.

She didn't answer, and Yejun felt that he had guessed her mind. She really still has feelings for Zhong Wuqi, and she probably felt distressed about him when she locked him up, so she took this opportunity to release him. even asked him to be her bodyguard, which was simply challenging his bottom line. He said gloomily: "Ning Ning, isn't my dignity worth anything in your eyes?" You're forcing me to kill him. ”

Ying Ning was stunned for a moment, suddenly understood his thoughts, and hurriedly spoke: "No, I let him be my guard, just make the best use of it." It's not a way to deal with the gods, and it will be able to deal with the gods in the future. ”

"Without him, we can deal with the gods, why do you have to him? Have you ever thought that if he were to defect at that time, wouldn't we be doomed again? Yingning, are you going to be stupid again? Didn't you get hurt enough by him last time? The Night Monarch asked aggressively.

Ying Ning was speechless when asked, and she didn't know whether I was true or false this time, she just wanted to believe him inexplicably. It's just that she can't say it, because she also feels that her inexplicable trust is extremely untenable. Maybe her trust will bring them life, maybe it's another catastrophe.

Ying Ning's face was not good-looking, she was already unhappy, and the conversation with Yejun made her even more tormented. She wanted to end this bad conversation earlier, and she said slowly, "I don't know Zhong Wuqi's true thoughts, let's just guard against him in the future." It's better than him helping us deal with us, at least he's with us, and there's a half chance he'll help us. ”

Yejun probably also noticed that her face was wrong, so he shook his head and said, "That's it, if you don't feel well, go and rest." I'll have some food brought to you later, you haven't eaten well lately, and you've lost a lot of weight. As for Zhong Wuqi, I will be your guard for the time being, and we will discuss it when you are better. But even if I talk about it again, I won't change my mind, I don't agree with him being by your side. ”

Ying Ning sighed and said, "Then let's talk about it later." ”

As he spoke, he summoned someone from outside in, and Yejun took advantage of this to take her in his arms and let her lean on his shoulder. Ying Ning knew the mind of the Night Monarch, but he was just declaring sovereignty to us. She was weak and weak, so she went with him.

When I came in and saw this scene, my face changed suddenly. Yingning only regarded it as invisible, and said to Yun'er: "Yun'er, you go and I will clean up the wing next to me." Zhong Wuqi was my bodyguard, so I let him live there. ”

Yun'er bent down to salute, whispered yes, and turned to leave. Ying Ning said to me again: "You can go too, I won't call you in the future, and you are not allowed to come to my room." You can only stay outside the door, you are not the ghost king of the underworld now, just a guard, you must always remember your identity. ”

I only saw them hugging each other, and his heart was sour and bitter, and he gritted his teeth for a long time and said, "I know." After saying that, he went out of the room full of grief and indignation.

Ying Ning seemed to be suddenly deflated, and her body softened suddenly. Yejun picked her up by the waist, put her on the bed, and covered her with a quilt. Holding her slightly cool fingers, he said softly: "You sleep, I'm here to watch you." ”

"Actually, you don't have to ......" Before Ying Ning's words could be spoken, he was ruthlessly interrupted by Yejun: "You go to sleep quickly, I want to accompany you is my business, and it has nothing to do with you." ”

Ying Ning had no choice but to nod and said very sincerely: "Thank you then." ”

Yejun sighed deeply: "Yingning, we have known each other for so long, do you have to be so polite to me?" I do this willingly, and you don't feel any burden. I know you won't have any affection for Zhong Wuqi, and it's okay if you don't want to respond to me. I'm willing to be nice to you, you can't even deny me such a chance. ”

Ying Ning bit her lip and said cautiously, "I'm sorry, I disappointed you." ”

Yejun clenched her fingers, put them to her mouth and kissed them lightly, looked at her tenderly and said, "If you are disappointed to the extreme, there should be hope." Ning Ning, no matter what you do, I just hope that you can think of me for a moment, and I am already content, I don't expect too much. ”

Yingning was soft-hearted, and Yejun used such a humble tone to say such warm words to her, and she was very sorry in her heart. She stretched out her hand and stroked his eyebrows and cheeks, and said softly, "I'm sorry, you are so good to me, I really can't repay you." ”

"Okay, let's not talk about it. You go to sleep first, and when you're better, we'll have a good talk. ”

Ying Ning smiled, her eyelids were already sour, and she fell asleep with her eyes closed after a while.
