Driving back to the apartment before dawn, there was a faint scent of lavender all the way, Mu Qingyang thought, and when he passed the huge shadow of the maple tree, Mu Qingyang flinched because of the memory that suddenly jumped up. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info he can't let himself sink ...... But the contradictions were already rolling in his mind, as if a new page had been opened and powerless to turn it back.

Clear...... For a moment he felt pure pleasure and awe, forgetting all the rest.

Li Qing, warm as the sun, soft as the morning light, she is like a flame burning in the ice, beautiful and restrained enthusiasm.

But what right does he have to love her? He felt like he was going to put her in danger at every moment. What if the next time disaster strikes, Li Qing is the closest person by his side? No way...... I'll die of being unbearable before those dangers touch her, he thought, swearing to himself.

I will die of thirst before I can be freed. I swear she wouldn't know the secrets. She will never give up on her good life because of me.

Behind him, the sky shone brightly. But before he left, he suddenly had the idea that all his painful power was focused on it, to seek some possible near-term strength. Search for some other answers to what happened here.

There is no hint of an answer.

Todd Hill was silent blocking the first rays of sunlight, and the old church quietly laughed at him...... Until his eyes swept across the alley and saw the bloody corpse hanging upside down on the spiral staircase, Mu Qingyang's heart tightened violently at that moment.

……

……

Li Qing woke up when the sun shone into the window. She immediately felt as if she had walked back and forth from an epidemic, and it seemed like a new morning. When she stood up, all her thoughts were mixed up.

She was in pain all over her body. But she and Mu Qingyang - this makes everything true. The old man who died, and Vivi...... What's there? Nothing...... Except that Mu Qingyang loves her.

She went downstairs in her pajamas, and from the sunlight hitting the window, she realized that she was up late, and Kang Yue'er and Li Yao were in the living room.

"Good morning." She gave her sister a surprise, tight hug.

"Good morning." She pulled up Yue'er beside her and danced a waltz with her in the room.

"Oh! Good morning, brother. ”

Embarrassed by her excitement and the pajamas she was wearing, she let Yue'er go and rushed into the kitchen.

Li Moliu came in, smiling despite the deep dark circles under his eyes.

"You look very energetic this morning."

"Oh yes."

Li Qing gave him another hug, feeling sympathy for his dark circles.

"You know I've got to go to work for the investigation team."

"Yes." Li Qing took out the juice from the refrigerator and poured it into a glass.

"But can I go to the Messier's house first? I know she must be upset, especially since no one believes her. ”

"Do you believe her, Haru?"

"Yes." She said slowly. "I believe in her. And something happened to me and Qingyang, I want to ......"

A knock on the door came from the hallway.

All the mood was broken.

"Oh, here we are." Li Qing said, taking a sip of orange juice.

"I'll tell you everything later."

She made a promise to the three of them and walked out of the kitchen.

Li Yao and Yue'er stood in place, stunned and unaccustomed, looking at Li Moliu, who was also at a loss.

Holding a few bills, Li Qing felt embarrassed, and didn't start talking until a long time, she cleared her throat, her eyes fixed on the corner, she quietly glanced quickly, and saw Li Yao and Yue'er staring at the same place after they came out.

Inexplicably, she burst out laughing, and they all looked up.

"I'm sorry I'm so happy, I can't even control my emotions, I know I should be sorry for this attitude, I'm sorry, it's bad, I should have been more polite, and now we can pretend it didn't happen?"

"You should be sorry to leave me like this." Li Yao pretended to blame.

"And me and your brother, to all of them." Yue'er said.

"Well, I've learned that." Li Qing said, feeling down for a moment, and then Li Yao smiled tremblingly.

"And you've got such a great gift for yourself -- a wonderful night with your brother-in-law, telling you that dramatic story. When you walked in with him, I thought I was hallucinating. How did you do that? ”

"I didn't. He just showed up, like the cavalry in those old movies. ”

"For you." Li Yao said. "What could be more exciting?"

"I can think of one or two things." Yue'er said.

"But maybe it's not shocking enough."

"I'll tell you." Li Qing said, letting go of them and retreating.

"But can you go with me to the Messier's house first? I want to talk to her. ”

"You can talk while you're getting dressed, on the way we go, about you."

"You're a woman." Yue'er said slyly.

"My sister is leaving us." Li Yao now knew that occupying Li Qing's room was no longer a difficult task.

And when they went upstairs, Li Qing was about to boil with laughter.

Lady Edney looked pale, but invited them in.

"The Messier is still resting. The doctor told her to stay in bed. She explained, smiling, trembling slightly. Li Qing, Li Yao, and Yue'er squeezed into the narrow corridor.

Lady Edney knocked softly on the door of the Messier's room.

"Honey, some school girls have come to see you. Don't let her talk for too long. She instructed Li Qing and opened the door.

"We won't." Li Qing assured. She walked into a rather nice blue and white room, with the others right behind her. The Messier was lying on the bed, supported by a pillow and his chin wrapped in a scarf. Her face was as pale as a piece of paper compared to it, and her heavy eyes were staring straight ahead.

"Why is she like this?" Li Yao whispered.

Li Qing moved to the edge of the bed. "Messier, can you hear me? I'm Li Qing. She glanced at Li Yao and Yue'er uncertainly.

"It looks like she's been sedated injected." Yue'er said.

But Mrs. Edney did not say that she was injected with anything. Frowning, Li Qing turned towards the unresponsive girl.

"Messier, it's all right...... It's me, Li Qing. I just wanted to talk to you. I want you to know that I'd love to be friends with you. Li Qing ignored Yue'er's glance and continued: "And I want to ask you-"

"No!" A scream came from Messier's throat, stiff and piercing. The body that is still like wax erupts with intense movements. Her bright red hair hit her face as she shook her head back and forth, her arms waving the empty air.

"Nope! No! She screamed.

"Do something!" Li Yao gasped. "Lady Edney! Lady Edney! ”

Li Qing and Yue'er tried to fix her on the bed, and she resisted them. The screaming continued. Messier's mother suddenly appeared beside them and helped press her to the bed and push the others away.

"What did you do to her?" She cried.

Messier grabbed her mother and calmed down, but then her heavy eyes glanced over Lady Adney's shoulder.

"You! You're in league with him, and you're evil too! ”

She shouted hysterically at Li Qing.

"...... Get away from me! ”

Li Qing was stunned. "Messier! I just wanted to come and ask ......."

"I think you'd better leave now. Let's be left alone. Lady Edney said, clinging to her daughter defensively. Didn't you see what you did to her? ”

In a dizzy silence, Li Qing left the room. Li Yao and Yue'er followed her.

"Did you notice her hand?" Yue'er said to Li Qing. "As we tried to stop her, I grabbed one of her hands. It's as cold as ice. ”

Li Qing shook her head in confusion. Nothing made sense, but she didn't want this to ruin her day. She won't. Desperately, she searched her memories for some experiences that allowed her to grab some happiness.

"Go find him."

"What?"

"I asked Qingyang to call me today, but why don't we just go to the apartment? It's not far from that. ”

"It's only twenty minutes away." Li Yao said. Her eyes lit up. "At least we can finally see his room now."

"Actually." Li Qing said. "I want you two kids to wait downstairs. Well, I'll just go see him for a few minutes. She added, but she was somewhat defensive when they looked at her.

That's weird, maybe, but I don't want to share Mu Qingyang with them yet.

When they knocked on the ornate oak door, someone answered. She was a woman who resembled an elf, with surprisingly bright black eyes.

"Finally meet again!" She said. "I saw you go out with Da Shao last night, and when he came back, I was just as surprised as you."

"You're back?" Li Qing said, shocked. "I haven't seen you in a long time."

"No, actually, I've always been there, but you don't see it."

Oda said, then laughed heartily. "You're still such a pretty girl, my dear Sister Qing." She added.

"You're also a very beautiful girl." She gently patted Li Yao's cheek.

"Ah, thank you." Li Yao said uneasily. She wasn't as agile as the gaze fixed on her. She looked over Oda to the stairs. "Is Mu Qingyang at home?"

"He's here, unless he runs off the roof!" Oda said, then laughed again. Li Qing couldn't help but smile as well.

"We'll stay here with Sister Oda." When Li Yao rolled her eyes like a martyr, Yue'er said to Li Qing - she and Xiao Tian have a deep relationship, and at this time, she immediately made a choice. Hiding her shock, Li Qing nodded and walked up the stairs.

It was strange an old house, when located on the stairs that led to the second floor, she thought. The sound below is dizzying, and the steps leading to the top have completely faded. She wrapped herself in silence, but when she reached the dimly lit door, she felt like she had entered another world.

She knocked on the door very timidly.

"Qingyang?" She couldn't hear anything inside, except for the door swaying open. It seemed that everyone looked pale and tired today, Li Qing thought, and then she was in his arm.

The arms hugged her tightly. "Qing, you're here......"

Then he stepped back.

It was just that they hadn't seen each other for a night, and Li Qing felt that they were estranged again, and she saw a trace of fear in his eyes.

"Nope." She said, barely realizing she was speaking loudly. "I'm not going to let you do that." She pulled his lips down to meet her.

There was no sound at this moment, and then he trembled, and his kiss became fiery. His fingers entangled in her hair, the real universe was all around Li Qing, nothing existed, except for Mu Qingyang, she felt the arms around her, and his heat on her lips.

Minutes or centuries later, they were separated, and they all shook. But they were still looking at each other, and Li Qing saw that Mu Qingyang's wide eyes seemed to be a light, and there was only some faint red in the darkness. He looked dazed, and his lips were already swollen.

"I think." He said she could hear the restraint in his voice.

"We'd better be careful when we do this."

Li Qing nodded, feeling dizzy.

It's not fair!

She thought.

There was no Li Yao and Yue'er waiting downstairs. Nor is it when they are absolutely alone, unless......

"But you can put your arms around me." She said.

How strange, after the enthusiasm, she felt so safe and so peaceful in his arms. "I love you." She laughed through his rough sweater.

She felt him tremble. "Li Qing," he added, almost in a voice of despair.

She lifted her head. "What's the problem? Are you shaking, Qingyang? Don't you love me? ”

"I'm ......" he looked at her, unable to do anything - and then he heard Oda's voice coming from the bottom of the stairs.

"Da Shao, young master!" It sounded like she had been hit in the nose by a staircase railing.

Mu Qingyang sighed. "I'd better go and see what she wants." He left her in silence, his expression incomprehensible.

Leaving alone, Li Qing crossed her arms over her chest and trembled. It's too cold here. He should make a fire, she thought, eyes wandering nonchalantly around the room.

A desk.

She glanced at the closed door. If he came back and then grabbed her...... She really shouldn't ...... But she's already gone there.

Think of that famous quote, she told herself. Curiosity kills her. But her fingers were already on the table. Her heart was beating rapidly, and she gently opened the drawer.

In the dim light, it was empty at first, Li Qing smiled nervously. What was she expecting? Love letter? Photo?

Then she saw the dried wildflowers, quietly placed in its corner. She took it out and put it on her fingertips. It was the first time she and he met, and she held it in her hand.

Oh, Qingyang. Tears stung her eyes, and love flowed powerlessly into her chest.

So long ago? You paid attention to me so long ago? Oh Qingyang, I love you......

It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, she thought.

There was a sound outside the door, and she quickly closed the drawer, and then she turned to face the door, damn tears streaming down her eyes. (To be continued.) )
