Spring goes to autumn, and things change.

A lot of things have happened in this, such as An Qingyan has faded from her childishness and turned into a slim girl. Another example is Shen Yin, who was originally sympathetic and recognized, has become a respectable guest-like existence in the court.

The connection between An Qingyan and Shen Yin became closer and closer, and he often talked about Shen Yin's brother affectionately at home, Lin Wan was happy to see it, and An Zhongke's originally firm heart became a little hesitant.

And for all this, An Ning Ning was just silent.

She knew that the truth was not as calm as it was in front of her.

Shen Yin bewitched the hearts of most of the people in the imperial court, and coupled with the Demon Sect and the forces secretly recovered in the rivers and lakes, he was enough to manipulate the court and stir up the storm. And the poison technique and ruthless means he has are enough to turn this country into his own.

It's just that none of this has been broken, and even in some places Shen Yin is still planning and plotting alone.

Looking at An Qingyan's smile, she gently put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, "I'm ready to eat, my father, mother, and sister use it slowly." ”

"Ning Ning, don't you use some more? You're going to get married the day after tomorrow, so you're so tired these days, eat more. ”

"Nope." She pursed her lips and smiled, nodded politely, and turned to leave.

She knew that it wouldn't be long before An Qingyan and Shen Ze began to suspect their beloved brother. By the end of the day, the truth was discovered, and the imperial court, including the Shen family, was under control, and at that time, they would poison Shen Yin with tricks.

She knows all of this by heart.

So much so that I can't sleep every night, even the so-called family affairs have never been taken to heart.

The moonlight was cool, and she stepped into the back garden, stopped and looked up, and was stunned.

"I'm not sick now, but I'm stupid?"

A familiar chuckle came from behind, and the young man who was as warm as jade closed his fan and looked at her with a smile.

Who can it be if it's not Shen Yin?

She hadn't seen him for a long time, and she had just stepped towards him habitually, but she stopped her steps and grimaced, "Didn't you say that day was a farewell?" ”

"Yes."

"And why are you here now? Shouldn't you stay in your court, play with power, and play with the storm? ”

He was not annoyed after hearing this, but instead had a satisfied smile on the corner of his mouth, "I know that even if it is far away, my family Ning Ning will know my news." ”

She didn't bother to talk. As a child, he complained to her closely, "It's too simple and boring than I thought." ”

"Then you go to An Qingyan to accompany you."

He was stunned for a moment, and suddenly laughed, "I forgot that since you know about the affairs of the imperial court, how could you not know this." An Jia is indeed a good partner to marry, and Qingyan is indeed simple and ignorant, unlike you, who is always sensitive to me. An Ning Ning didn't want to listen to this, so she was about to leave directly, but was hurriedly pulled by Shen Yin, "But there is a place I want to take you there today." ”

"I don't want to."

He looked at her, his eyes were slightly sunken, and he suddenly said, "You like that surnamed Fang very much?" ”

"Not really." She turned her head and glared at him dissatisfied, "I just don't want to have any more entanglements with you." ”

"Huh. Just right. He said softly, "I think so too." ”

"You can go with me today, and the two of us will probably never have contact again."

……

Unexpectedly, the place where Shen Yin brought her to the end would be the Demon Sect.

In the desert, he carved out an inner lake, reeds swung around the shore, the stars in the night sky dotted the whole water and sky, and fireflies flew in the air.

"Do you like it?" He asked.

"Hmm." The quiet night always has that ability, which can make people temporarily let go of all the things that go wrong and become calm.

"If an outsider breaks in, who can know that this is a demon cult?" She sighed softly.

- Do you know that this is such a bloody purgatory?

As if knowing what she meant, he stopped, and looked at her unabashedly for the first time, his eyes brighter than the stars.

"It's like when everybody sees me, they think I'm like this."

"And only you know what kind of person I am."

The old anger is completely gone, and the surroundings are becoming more and more lonely and lonely.

It was then that she suddenly realized his abnormality.

"Have you been - what's going on?"

"Nope." He sat down casually, lay back, and looked at the starry sky, "just suddenly feeling tired." ”

She looked at him, approached slowly, sat down beside him, and lay down too, looking at the same starry sky.

Both of them were silent for a while before they heard his soft inquiry beside them.

"You tell me—I don't have a predetermined destiny in your heart."

“…… Well. ”

"I knew it. Whenever I coincide with my predetermined destiny, you always become sad and always want to try to change me. He turned his face sideways, looked her in the eye, and said half-jokingly, "I must have died in the end, that's why you are so worried." ”

She quietly looked at the young man's eyelashes stained with white wool under the reeds surrounded by fireflies, and silently bent the corners of his mouth.

"Mo Xun said that I will die alone like him in the future. For some reason, everything has been going on very well lately, but I always think about it. ”

"Thinking about it, I'm actually scared."

Fear?

She looked up at him, and he looked at her and smiled.

Smiled without a hint of reserve.

But she clearly saw the wetness in the corners of the eyes of this man who controlled the world with one hand.

From childhood to the present, the fragility in his bones has only been revealed in front of her alone.

"Ning Ning, will you die?" He said softly.

"I don't know." Seeing his rare sadness, she muttered and repeated, "Ah Yin, I don't know. ”

"I hope you'll die because I'm afraid I'll be ...... alone"

She seemed to realize what he was trying to do.

But she didn't move, still looking at him quietly and inclusively.

"You connived at An Qingyan to have more dealings with me, and even asked her to warn me more. It can be seen that I must be closely connected with her in my future, and there are times when I am willing to listen to her. Except that I will fall in love with her, I may rule out the rest. You prevent me from making good use of Gu poison techniques, and you don't want me to be close to the court and the rivers and lakes, the greater my power, the more worried you are, it can be seen that I will die in the end on my great cause. ”

"You know that it is irreparable now, so you are far away and refuse to face me, because you can't bear it and are not willing to give it up. So you can see that there are limitations to your abilities – for example, you can't change the facts. ”

"But you forgot that since this is my future, you can't change it, but I can also make it all stop."

He leaned down slightly, closer to her.

"The only person I believe in this life is you An Ningning, and I still want to believe in you now."

"These over-the-top prosperity are like clouds, I want to think about it, and I think that in the end, I am still reluctant to leave me alone."

"Ning Ning, I'm used to your company."

"Would you like to...... Stay with me on Huangquan Road? ”
