"At dinner in the evening, Brooke said you weren't feeling well today, and he left you noodles." Jin Shaoming looked at the steaming noodles in front of Xiao Yue, and Jin Shaoming thought that Brooke specially helped Xiao Yue warm the pot for her after dinner.

"That's right." Xiao Yue looked at the noodles in front of her in a daze with blank eyes, holding the edge of the bowl with both hands, feeling the temperature transmitted by the palm, and the tip of her nose seemed to be able to smell the smell of Brooke.

"What happened to you?" Jin Shaoming looked at Xiao Yue's eyes with empty eyes, and thought of the special atmosphere before them at the dinner table in the morning, knowing that there must have been some conflict between them.

"Jin Gongzi, if you like someone, will you tell her?" Xiao Yue suddenly changed the topic, although a pair of almond eyes were small, but they were very firm, and the black pupils were as bright as reflecting the firelight.

"Yes, if you don't say it, then what's the point of liking?" Jin Shaoming did not hesitate at all, he looked at Xiao Yue's eyes, and said clearly word by word, the fire on the table jumped from time to time, as if he was responding to Jin Shaoming's words.

"I like you." Satsuki held her breath, and those words were uttered with almost all her strength, and although they were spoken very softly, she was sure that she was staring into his eyes.

Time seemed to be frozen, except for the flickering candle flame, Jin Shaoming looked at Xiao Yue's eyelids without blinking, Xiao Yue still looked at him with firm eyes, waiting for a result that she didn't know if she could accept.

"Satsuki, you should know that we can't do it." Jin Shaoming came back to his senses for a long time, his eyes were full of incredulity, he and Xiaoyue rarely intersected, I don't know when she had feelings for herself,

"I know, it's just that you didn't say it, you should say it." A smile tugged at the corner of Xiao Yue's mouth, but her eyes were full of disappointment and loneliness, and she gritted her teeth so that the tears in the corners of her eyes would not stay.

"I thought, you said Brooke." Jin Shaoming looked at Xiaoyue as if she was about to cry, and his heart suddenly felt pity, he couldn't bear to see Brooke pay so silently to her.

"Brooke?" Xiao Yue looked at Jin Shaoming with a dull gaze, and her brain suddenly felt like it exploded, she thought that Brooke had given up on herself when she refused.

"Otherwise, who do you think will prepare the ingredients for you in the morning, and who else will deliberately give you the following." Jin Shaoming watched Xiao Yue stand still like a stone statue, he patted Xiao Yue lightly on the shoulder, and then stood up and walked out of the kitchen.

The noodles in front of Satsuki had cooled, and the candlelight on the table looked a little bleak, and she felt a little sad when she looked at the bowl of noodles, and she felt a little cruel when she thought of what Brooke had done to her.

She suppressed the sourness churning in her heart, didn't let herself cry, and forced herself to eat the noodles first and then think about other things, but she couldn't control it just while eating, and the tears of the bean fell directly into the bowl.

It was already late when Brooke took Mu Lingyun and them back, Jin Feiya was sleeping on Mu Lingyun's back, looking well-behaved and quiet, and when they just walked outside the house, Brooke saw Xiaoyue, she was still standing under the big tree outside the door, a small figure.

"Go ahead, I'll take Fia back to sleep." Seeing that Brooke's gaze had been attracted by Xiao Yue, Mu Lingyun lost his usual smile and said softly.

Brooke glanced at her, nodded lightly and walked towards the figure under the tree, Mu Lingyun went back to the room by herself, thinking of the entangled feelings of the two people, she looked at the two people in the distance, and sighed softly.

"Are you waiting for me?" Brooke walked into Satsuki, who watched Brooke get closer and closer, took a few steps back, and his heart was beating nervously for some reason.

"I have something to tell you." She was separated from Brooke by a long distance, looking at him with uneasy eyes, her voice still weak, and her hands were clasped together, like a resentful little daughter-in-law.

"If there's something you have to wait here to say, let's go inside and talk about it, it's so windy." Brooke felt a gust of wind blowing, and felt a chill.

"Let's say it here, just say a few words, and it won't take a long time." Xiao Yue saw Brooke raise his foot to leave, and his hand quickly grabbed the corner of his sleeve and gently tugged at it.

Brooke stopped, looked back at her weak, timid eyes, turned to stand in front of her, his hand gently pulling away from her sleeve, his face cold.

"Jin Gongzi said that you are helping me arrange the ingredients for the morning for a few days, and you also took care of me and warmed the porridge for me. Satsuki's voice was still very soft, she raised her eyes slightly and quietly glanced at Brooke, who still had an indifferent expression.

"Yes, but I think everyone knows each other, and you should also help, not to mention that you should be really tired today." Brooke said indifferently, he didn't hear Satsuki's heart-rending cry in the room, the sound was like screwing his heart with a screwdriver.

"You're still prejudiced against me, aren't you?" Brooke's indifferent attitude towards herself made Satsuki's heart a little angry, and she suppressed the emotions in her heart, and the words seemed to be squeezed out of her teeth.

Brooke was silent, he used his peripheral vision to see Satsuki's almost fierce eyes, but he ignored it, his eyes never stayed on her, just looked into the distance ahead.

"I'm not biased against you." He said, the cold voice and the wind blowing around her made the cold hairs on her body stand up, and even her heart is cold.

"Liar, Brooke, we're still friends, is that the case between friends?" Xiao Yue's voice suddenly became sharp, she clenched her two fists tightly, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

Hearing Satsuki say this, Brooke turned his head sideways to look at her eyes that lit up with anger, she was now like a fried hedgehog, "I didn't, don't think about it." ”

"Do you still like me?" Satsuki stared at Brooke almost with fierce eyes, and for the first time she felt so brave, as brave and resolute as a samurai in the Colosseum.

"Is it that important to know the answer? You don't already have someone you like. His tone was still cold and stiff, but with a hint of helplessness, he turned his head to look at the sky covered by clouds, and the dark clouds seemed to be stuffed in his heart.

"Brooke, I'm embarrassed by you." Satsuki looked at Brooke's look up at the sky, and she felt that she should have a better way to tell him, in a way that was acceptable to him.

"It's okay, if nothing else, I'll go in." Brooke didn't want to stand outside to blow the wind anymore, the corners of his eyes were getting wet, and he didn't know if it was because of the wind or because of the pain he couldn't suppress in his heart to vent in another way.

Without waiting for Satsuki's reply, Brooke walked away directly, walked towards the room, walked through the curtain to his room, he felt the darkness in the familiar chair, looking at the dark room and distracted.

Xiao Yue stood alone under the tree and stared blankly at the open door like a black hole, a gust of wind blew through the dead leaves on the tree and fell like rain and snow, the fallen leaves were colorful, and when she looked up and found herself surrounded by falling dead leaves, she smiled helplessly.

The next morning, Satsuki got up earlier than usual, and when it was still dark, she got up in the dark and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast, not wanting Brooke to help her do things and take advantage of him, so she could only use this way.

On this gray-black day, Xiaoyue was washing vegetables in the kitchen, Brooke lived on the edge of the kitchen, the sound of running water woke him up, he glanced at the sky outside, turned over and got up and got dressed, and walked lightly to the kitchen, and saw Xiaoyue washing vegetables in the sink at the door, he was a little stunned.

"Woke up so early today?" Brooke walked into the kitchen with his feet raised, and said softly, it was completely different attitudes from last night, Satsuki heard his voice coming from behind him, his bent back became stiff, and the movements of his hands were frozen, but soon she continued with her own business, ignoring Brooke's words.

Looking at Satsuki's appearance, Brooke knew that what he said to her yesterday was excessive, which made her feel really uncomfortable, and he walked up to Satsuki and looked rude as she washed the vegetables.

"Don't take the angry words I said yesterday to heart." He looked aggrieved and didn't look like a leader at all, but Satsuki was indifferent to his words, just like him yesterday.

"It's okay, you're right anyway." Xiao Yue came up with a sentence coldly, which made Brooke a little at a loss, and his cold tone was clearly a tantrum with him.

"I didn't mean that, I mean, you're such a good girl, I ······" Brooke didn't know how to express his thoughts, he scratched his head in annoyance, and looked at Satsuki's eyes helplessly.

"You made it clear yesterday." Satsuki finished washing the vegetables and took the bamboo basket containing the vegetables to the board, ready to be processed, Brooke stood beside her, Satsuki separated him with her shoulder, and then handled the things herself.

"You don't want that, okay?" Brooke moved to her side again, looking at Xiao Yue's cold attitude, he felt a little chill in his heart, the first time he made a girl angry, he was also a little helpless.
