Chapter XXII Preface

You Ran tried his best to get close to Gao Zhaorong, and the only way to protect her by her side was to follow her from time to time.

If you follow her, you will have to be by her side.

You Ran decided to enter the mansion of the High Protector.

On this day, You Ran was still wandering outside the Gao Mansion, and just walked to the alley at the door of the backyard of the Gao Mansion, and saw the two servants in the Gao Mansion saying goodbye to each other.

You Ran had an idea, it is better to enter the Gao Mansion and be a slave, this will not directly contact Gao Zhaorong.

After thinking about it, You Ran felt that this was the only way.

After this day, You Ran often stayed outside the gate of Gaofu, waiting for the Cao steward to come out and have a relationship with him, so that he could enter Gaofu.

Steward Cao has a penchant for going to the wine shop to have a few drinks, and You Ran saw the last opportunity, so he invited Steward Cao to drink in the wine shop. He chatted with Steward Cao, saying that he was alone, had nothing to worry about, and just wanted to find something to do in the capital.

Steward Cao remembered that Gao Mansion had just left a slave, and it was when he needed people, and when he saw that You Ran was still an honest and honest person, he opened his mouth to make the master for You Ran and let him go to Gao Mansion to make a living.

You Ran was full of thanks, and promised to do things well and not to shame Steward Cao's face.

On the second day, You Ran went to Gaofu, and after explaining his intentions, the servants in the house brought him to Steward Cao.

The control of slaves and maids in the house is the responsibility of Cao Guan, and a small slave who comes in does not need to report it at all, as long as there are those people.

You Ran was very excited, and when she entered the Gao Mansion, she would have the opportunity to see Gao Zhaorong, and she could see her behavior, and she could be more sure whether Yi Huan's soul was safe in her body.

I walked around Bai Rui, my eyes resting on his face again, I really didn't believe that the person in my dream could be real.

I must have seen him once, and I had an impression in my mind, which is why I dreamed of him.

I think so, and if it's not, I can't explain it.

Bai Rui looked at my complicated expression, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, "Maybe we have really met, we are all in this Pingcheng, maybe it is normal to meet them outside one day." ”

Yes, I can't think of anything other than this, but even if my memory is not restored, why is he alone in my dream, and it's still like that.

Thinking of the intimate scene of me and him in the dream, my face heated.

"We haven't officially met before, and now we should officially meet Miss Xia, and it is Bai's honor to know Miss." Bai Rui smiled clearly.

"What are you talking about, so happy."

Nangong Ni walked over with a smile.

I looked over and saw Gao Xian following her with a guqin.

Nangong Ni approached me and smiled at me, "This time, I asked Mr. Gao to invite Miss Sophomore to come to Miss Neon, mainly because Ni admires Miss Sophomore's piano skills, so she wants to listen to Miss Sophomore play a song." ”

I looked at her in silence.

"Does Ni have this honor?" Her smiling eyes waited for my response.

Nangong Ni thinks that I am very good at playing the piano, I don't know if Gao Xian said it, or if she already knew it.

But I don't know my skills.

I'm not sure how much, or just a little, will it be.

In the Valley of the Forest, I only remember being shot in a dream.

Back in Gaofu, I only heard Zilan talk about two years ago, and I really sat down to play the qin by myself, this period of time, there has not been, except for that time in the Valley of the Hidden Forest.

By the way, the piano in the Valley of the Hidden Forest, I was deeply attracted to it during those days there, but I didn't dare to touch it, after all, it was someone else's thing.

Now, the piano is still there for me. The day I walked out of the Valley of the Forest, I really wanted to take it with me, but it wasn't mine.

Actually, I was a little selfish, I tried it for a long time that day, and I still put it there.

"Miss Sophomore, can Ni have the pleasure of listening to a song?"

Nangong Ni's words interrupted my meditation.

I couldn't help but look at Bai Rui, who was staring straight at me, and his eyes seemed to be waiting for me to make a move.

"Second sister, play a song, your piano skills back then were famous in the capital, and my brother hadn't heard it for a long time, and I was looking forward to that beautiful sound in my heart."

Gao Xian helped Nangong Ni, I don't know if he really wants to hear it, or because Nangong Ni wants to.

I glanced at the guqin that had been placed in the pavilion and walked lightly towards it.

I sat down and tried to play a song.

After closing my eyes, I had a vague picture in my mind: under the deciduous plane tree, a delicate woman taught me to stroke the strings by hand. She called to me in a warm voice, "Little Rong'er, come, don't be afraid, give it a try, it won't hurt your hand." ”

I saw my own small hands, gently caressing the strings.

Because of the stupidity, the sound that pops up is hard to hear.

The vague woman in her mind smiled faintly, "It's okay, Xiao Rong'er has just started learning, and it's already very good." ”

I felt very happy, very happy, and I was even happier when I saw the woman's smile, and I couldn't help but call her, "Master—"

"Second sister, have you started?" I heard a loud urging in my ears.

When I opened my eyes and saw that I was facing them, I somehow fell into a trance. When I see such an image in my head, it must be that my memory is slowly recovering.

It's just that I can't remember who the woman who taught me the piano was.

I reached out and slowly touched the strings, but there was not a single song in my head, and the only thing I remembered was the one I had dreamed in the valley.

I thought quietly.

Then it started playing.

I remember that the song was taught by the man in my dreams, and now his figure is right in front of me.

I couldn't help but look at Bai Rui, who was still looking directly at me, listening to me play that tune. He looked like he'd known me for a long, long time, not like he'd met me for the first time.

I still remember this piece in my heart, and the more I play, the more proficient I become, and the faster my fingering becomes.

Except for the sound of my piano, they didn't say a word.

It wasn't until I came down with a song that Gao Xian hurriedly said, "Second sister, I haven't heard your song, who taught it." ”

Who is it, the man in my dreams.

I looked at Bai Rui in a daze.

He had a very satisfied expression, and the corners of his mouth were lightly raised.

Nangong Ni praised, "Miss Gao's piano skills are good, Ni really admires them." ”

I smiled, "Miss Nangong has won the award, and the girl's piano skills are already very appreciated in Yangcheng Zhaorong." ”

In the rest room, the table in the gazebo was full of snacks, and Bai Rui greeted me.

I looked at a few plates of pastries, picked out a plate of chestnut cakes, and took a piece and put it in my mouth.

Gao Xian was surprised, "Second sister, you haven't ever eaten chestnut cake, how can you eat it now." ”

Don't I eat chestnut cake?

But I don't think I'm the only one who prefers it.

Bai Rui looked at me with a complicated look on his face.

And I don't think so, it's just a preference, I didn't eat it before, and I didn't necessarily eat it later.

I replied casually, "Maybe in the two years of the old mansion, my preferences have changed, and it shows that you don't know." ”

Gao Xian didn't ask any more questions, eating his pastry, and I inadvertently met Bai Rui's eyes again, and he still looked at me lightly.

It's as if I have something he doesn't understand.

I withdrew my gaze, elegantly picked up the porcelain cup and took a sip of tea, no longer paying attention to the calm expression of Bai Rui's expression.

On the way home, Gao Xian seemed to be tired of playing in Youyuzhuang, leaned on the side and fell asleep quietly, and I was extremely awake.

From the first time I saw Bai Rui, he had a kind of charm that attracted me.

I wasn't fascinated by his looks, but there was something about him that baffled me.

That day and night, I had an unusual dream, and I was confused when I woke up.

In the mist, I slowly cleared the mist, and a dense forest appeared.

There was only one trail in the forest, and I was standing on the trail, surrounded by towering trees that couldn't see the direction clearly.

I don't know where I am at this point, and I don't know where I'm going. I was a little scared, as if there was no one else but me.

Am I lost again?

Looking at the stretching path, I had no choice but to follow it, hoping to get out of the woods. After walking for a long time, I saw a rock wall at the end of the dense forest, a very high peak, and a wide stone gate on the rock wall.

As I approached slowly, I saw a strange image of a wolf inlaid on the stone gate, and on either side of the stone gate stood a statue of a wolf of the same height.

What a spooky place! I was terrified.

Wolf, I suddenly remembered the white wolf in the valley of the forest, which was very similar to this stone sculpture.

But what the hell is this place?

Suddenly, I saw that the white jade necklace on my chest was shining, and the totem of the wolf on the stone door was also shining.

Confused, I approached and looked at the totem, and saw that it had a mouth. I took off the necklace and inserted the pendant of the necklace into the opening, which happened to be maintained.

With a "clang", the stone door cracked.

When the stone door stopped moving, I took off the necklace and hung it back around my neck. Behind the door was a large space, with light and light.

I swallowed nervously and walked inside. The cave is very spacious, and there are crystal lamps on the stone walls on both sides, which illuminates the cave very brightly.

I continued to walk inside. Faintly, I heard a voice coming from inside the cave.

Could it be anyone?

I followed the source of the voice, hoping to meet someone and tell me where it was!

Push open a door again, and there is a corridor. There were still crystal lamps on both sides of the corridor, the corridor was not very long, and there was a stone door in front of me, and I approached quickly, but it was very soft. Because the sound coming from inside the stone gate was already clear.

There really are people here.
