Si Yisheng returned to the girl's room.
"Everything has been taken care of at the hospital?" The girl asked.
"Hmm." Si Yisheng sat next to the girl, "Hungry, aren't you?" What do you want to eat? β
"Will you do it?"
"Probably."
"Just kidding, you know I'm not a picky eater."
"Then I'll go to the kitchen first, and I'll bring the food here directly when it's ready."
"Don't bother, I'll just go with you."
"I'll be nervous if you're by my side."
"Okay then."
"I'll be back soon."
"Okay."
After speaking, Si Yisheng left the room.
In the kitchen, the driver was already preparing the ingredients.
"What about people?" Si Yisheng asked.
"Young master, I haven't seen him come out since I led him into the guest room, and at this time, he must have fallen asleep."
"It's going to be hard tonight, and you're staring at him."
"Don't worry, young master." Even without Si Yisheng's explanation, the driver knew what to do. The young master finally waited for Miss Muxi, and no one was allowed to destroy them.
"Alright, you go down, I'm going to use the kitchen."
"Yes."
Purple stranger's study in front of the stranger.
This was the second time the man had been here, the last time was a year ago, when the fire on the island had just been extinguished, and he had found the study because of the diary he had found in the girl's room.
After making sure that no one was watching him, the man quietly pushed open the secret door that led to the bottom of the castle and stepped inside.
Half an hour later, Si Yisheng came to the castle with the meal he had prepared himself.
The man, on the other hand, had been hiding in a corner of the castle and secretly observing, until he saw Si Yisheng enter the room where the girl had once lived.
After a moment's wait, the man slowly moved towards the room.
"How about tasting it?" Si Yisheng put the meal in front of the girl, and then looked at the girl, with some childlike anticipation on his face.
"You really did it?"
"Hmm."
"I remember that your hands seem to be really good at other things than holding scalpels..."
"I swear I definitely didn't lie to you."
"Well, trust you." The girl picked up her chopsticks and put a small piece of fish in her mouth, with a pained expression on her face.
"What's wrong? Isn't it tasty? Si Yisheng asked a little nervously, shouldn't it be, all the seasoning ratios are according to the cooking book, and the score is exactly the same, so the taste of the recipe should not be a problem.
"Hmm..." The girl hesitated, "Do you want to hear the truth?" β
"Well, I'm going to hear the truth."
The girl swallowed the contents of her mouth into her stomach, and then couldn't help but smile, but the smile on her face suddenly stopped at a moment, but it was well concealed by the girl.
She looked out of the corner of her eye, and the smile on her face changed again. Sadism.
"Don't be nervous, it tastes good, like a chef made it."
"Really?"
"Of course, why don't you try it?" The girl took a slice of fish and brought it to Si Yisheng's mouth.
The girl's actions made Si Yisheng a little overwhelmed.
It's like that... This is something that only couples in love or couples do.
"Eat, do you want me to hold it all the time, my hands are sore."
"Huh? Well. Si Yisheng put the fish meat in the girl's hand in his mouth.
"Delicious, right?"
"Well, it's not bad."
"Now believe I didn't lie to you, right?"
"Hmm."
At this time, there was a very slight noise outside the door, because Si Yisheng was still immersed in the joy just now, so he didn't notice it.
The corners of the girl's mouth went up.
After that, the two chatted for a while after eating.
"It's not too early, I want to wash and sleep."
"It's fine. By the way, if you don't want to stay on the island, we'll leave here tomorrow and go somewhere else. β
"Let's talk about it tomorrow, I'm a little tired today."
"Okay."
When Si Yisheng was about to leave the room, the girl could clearly feel that the person who had been hiding outside the door left quickly.
So, what do you do next?
The girl lay down in bed after taking a shower, turned off all the lights in the room, and pretended to be asleep.
An hour later, she felt a burning gaze coming from behind her.
Sure enough, with his character, he would definitely not be willing if he didn't confirm it with his own eyes.
The girl continued to pretend to be asleep, and she was waiting for the man's next reaction.
The man standing by the bed kept looking at the girl's slender back and the long hair that spread out on the pillow.
The familiar breath hit the tip of his nose as soon as he entered the room.
The man stood silently, not even daring to move.
However, he really wanted to see the face with his back to him, but if he woke up the sleeping girl, he might be known by Si Yisheng, so he would have broken his promise with Si Yisheng.
So, the man was hesitating.
The other side.
Si Yisheng didn't go straight back to his room to rest, and after coming out of the castle, he went to the tomb where the island's owner was buried. He looked at the stele in front of him, and there were some things he could only say to the stele and to the people buried in the tomb.
"Zi Lao, Mu Xi is back, she is not dead. But... How should I face her in the future? Si Yisheng looked up at the night sky above the island, "What happens after you tell her everything?" Will she understand that I will forgive me? But I really didn't have the courage to tell her. Zi Lao, can I tell Mu Xi about what happened back then? And what you asked me to pass on to her, I also want to give it to her later, I hope you can allow it..."
That fantastic castle, the girl's room.
The man had been waiting for the girl to turn her face to him, but the girl had been in the same sleeping position, not moving at all, and the man was a little anxious.
It's been a while since he's been out of the room, and if he continues like this, it's only a matter of time before he's discovered.
Damn, when did he become so hesitant, just watch it if he wanted to.
Thinking of this, the man moved closer to the bed, and then slowly lowered his body, trying not to make any noise.
However, just as he was about to approach the girl, the man sensed as if someone was coming, just by his intuition.
He quickly left the girl's room and ran towards the lowest level of the castle. It's a pity that he didn't see the girl's face, but he won't leave the island until tomorrow, so there's still plenty of time.
As soon as the man left the room, the girl got out of bed, and then stood outside the door and looked at the figure running at great speed, worthy of a military background, with agile and fast movements. The corners of the girl's mouth went up, and after calculating the time, she walked in the direction the man had left.
Strange, why didn't this man choose to escape from the castle directly, but came to the lowest level of the castle?
The girl hid not far from the lowest level of the castle and secretly looked at the man standing in front of the wall painted with angels.
The angel holds a wreath in his hand, and in the center of the wreath holds a flower.
The man pressed the stamen accurately, and the secret door slowly opened, and the man walked in. And almost at the same time, a flash of golden light suddenly flashed, and a crisp and pleasant sound was made.
The girl looked over and noticed that something had fallen out of the man's pocket, and when she looked closely, she realized that it was the golden pocket watch that her grandfather had been wearing all the time since his death!
That person would have known about the existence of the secret door, and he still had his grandfather's golden pocket watch in his hand...
Did he know about the fire on the island? Know that the people of the island were brutally murdered?
Secret DoorΒ·Β· How did he know about the secret door?
When she and Qing left the island with Zisheng, her grandfather was already dead, and no one on the island was spared, so...
Could it be that the diary that disappeared... Did he see it? Because that diary is the only one that records the secret door.
Or is it ... Was this just something he stumbled upon?
And what about my grandfather's golden pocket watch? Why is it in his hands again?
The girl looked at the secret door that had been closed again, what was going on? Could it be that this man was also involved in what happened on the island back then?
Before the girl could reach the room, she found that all the lights in the room were on, and she knew who had gone to the room without even thinking about it.
put away the doubts in his heart, and smiled lightly on his beautiful face.
"Si Yisheng, it's really scary for you to suddenly appear like this, do you know? Don't you sleep? The girl did not go directly into the room, but stood at the door.
"I just can't sleep, so I wanted to come and see you, and it turned out to..."
"It turned out that I wasn't there, and then you started to panic again, didn't you? Thought my appearance was another dream? β
"Hmm..."
"Obviously you're a doctor, can't you even tell the difference between dreams and reality, if outsiders know, they will definitely laugh at you, and a man runs to the girl's boudoir in the middle of the night, this kind of behavior... Sort of..."
"You hate it, don't you?"
"It's not a nuisance, it's just a little unaccustomed to it."
"I'm sorry, I apologize for my actions."
"It's okay, anyway, you and I are already so familiar with each other, and we know each other very well, so it's nothing."
"Muxi."
"Huh?"
"There's something I think I need to tell you." Si Yisheng looked at the girl standing outside the door and said very seriously, but there was a hint of uneasiness in that seriousness.
"You say, I'll listen."
"That person..." Si Yisheng paused, then continued, "That man has entered the island, and now lives in the castle. β
"That person? Who is it? Do I know each other? "The girl deliberately pretended to be stupid.
Si Yisheng sighed heavily, and then slowly walked towards the girl until he reached the front of the girl.
"The end of autumn."
