He sneered.

I couldn't figure out what he was thinking, so I could only kneel there in silence, usually he asked me to kneel for an hour or two, but this time after two hours passed, he didn't move at all, still maintained the previous posture, leaning lazily on the chair, his hand supporting his chin, breathing steadily.

Seems to have really fallen asleep?

I couldn't make up my mind for a moment, and after observing him for a while, I tried to move my aching legs, and although there was a carpet on the floor, my clothes rubbed against each other, and I couldn't help but make a noise in the quiet room.

He still didn't respond, and I was really sure that he was really asleep.

Knowing that he was asleep, I had no scruples, sat down on the ground, and began to detach both of my shoes from my feet, and kneaded them.

There were some pastries on the table, and I felt a little hungry, so I got up from the ground again, walked over, and took a random piece and stuffed it into my mouth.

chewed it, and seeing that he didn't move, he immediately grabbed a lot of it and began to eat it in a good mood.

While eating, I also walked around his study by the way, and found that there were really a lot of books in his study, Mu Jingchi looked old-fashioned, but he was extremely knowledgeable, all foreign, domestic, and the bookcase was almost full.

I took a random copy, looked at it a few times, felt that I couldn't understand it, and stuffed it back again.

At this time, the sound of the door suddenly opening the door in the quiet study, but it made me jump a lot, when I looked over, I found that Zhou's mother was at the door, she lowered her voice and called: "Miss." Miss. ”

Zhou's mother was also too smart, seeing that there was no movement inside, she knew that Mu Jingchi was asleep and looked over, she didn't hesitate, and quickly pushed them in, holding a bowl of hot noodles in her hand, my eyes lit up, but I didn't come out.

Zhou's mother stuffed the noodles into my hand and said, "Hurry up and eat it." ”

I whispered, "How do you know I'm hungry?" ”

Zhou's mother said, "I don't know what you're thinking? ”

I didn't rub it anymore, I swallowed the bowl of noodles in a big gulp, Zhou's mother was afraid that Mu Jingchi would wake up suddenly, staring at him with a nervous face, and when I swallowed this bowl of noodles, Zhou's mother took the empty bowl and told me: "You kneel well, otherwise Mr. will wake up later, and you will feel good." ”

I waved my hand and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, you can get out quickly." ”

Mother Zhou didn't dare to stay, and glanced at Mu Jingchi again with a little weakness, and then left with the empty bowl.

After the room was quiet again, I knelt on the ground again, I don't know if it was luck or what, before I knelt down, Mu Jingchi woke up!

He propped his head on, his eyes slowly opening in the light, and there was a slight mist in his eyes, but soon the focus of his gaze fell on me.

I coughed, straightened my crooked body, and knelt there in a proper manner.

He looked at me and didn't speak.

I don't talk either, I'm too honest to be honest.

Mu Jingchi glanced at the time on the wall again, it was exactly one o'clock in the morning.

He said, "How long have you been kneeling?" ”

I said, "It's almost four hours." ”

"The rules for kneeling today." He asked casually, then took a sip of the tea on the table, and moistened his voice.

I didn't speak, just stared at the shadow on the ground, and then, a huge shadow covered me, Mu Jingchi got up and came to me, he looked at me condescendingly, I thought he would let me get up, but who knows, he just glanced at me a few times and said, "Since you kneel so well, then continue." ”

I was about to look up and look at him angrily, but he had already turned and entered the partition of the study, where there was a lounge where he would sleep when he was tired or finished working.

I don't know what he was doing in there, but for about five minutes, there was a sound of water inside, and he was bathing in it.

I sat down on the ground again, beating my sore legs, and scolded him in my heart for not knowing how many times.

When the sound of the water stopped, I felt footsteps approaching in the room, and I immediately straightened my back and knelt there in a proper manner.

Mu Jingchi changed into pajamas, he walked directly towards the desk, not long after he sat down, he seemed to be a little hungry, and reached out to get the pastry, but as soon as his hand stopped, he asked: "It seems to be less." ”

I pretended to be stupid and asked, "What's missing?" ”

Mu Jingchi's fingertips tapped the edge of the plate.

I said, "I don't know, but I heard rats scurrying just now." ”

He asked, "You mean it was eaten by rats?" ”

I said, "I just kept kneeling and didn't pay much attention. ”

He chuckled twice, picked up a piece of pastry and looked at it in the light, and soon he put the pastry down again, wiped the crumbs from his fingertips with a handkerchief, and said, "I forgot that the favorite thing to eat is red bean cake for the rats in the house." ”

I don't speak.

At this time, a servant walked in and said to Mu Jingchi, "Sir, the kitchen has warmed the porridge, do you want to use some?" ”

Mu Jingchi looked at me and said, "Call Mother Zhou." ”

The maid didn't understand what it meant, and was stunned for a few seconds, but soon, she lowered her head and replied, "Yes." ”

I quickly retreated from the room, and it didn't take long for Zhou's mother to hurry over, Mu Jingchi sat on a chair and brushed tea, and Zhou's mother glanced at me. Then he smiled and called, "Sir." ”

Mu Jingchi played with the teacup in his hand, and after humming, he asked, "Mother Zhou, how many years have you been in Mu Mansion?" ”

Zhou's mother didn't know what Mu Jingchi meant for a while, but she still replied: "It's been almost twenty years." ”

Mu Jingchi smiled and said, "It turns out that it has been twenty years. He closed the lid on the teacup, looked at Zhou's mother and said, "You are old, it seems a little unkind to let you go to Steward Zhou to get the board, so let's go to Steward Zhou to settle the salary and go back to your hometown to care for the elderly." ”

Mother Zhou still didn't understand the meaning of Mu Jingchi's words, and after a long time, she immediately lay on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "Sir, but the old slave did something wrong?" Why did you suddenly want to fire me? ”

When I heard Mu Jingchi's words, I immediately climbed over, protected Zhou's mother and said, "It's my fault!" It's none of Zhou's mother's business! If you want to punish me, punish me, why do you want to move Zhou's mother?! ”

Mother Zhou only realized what the problem was at this time, she lay on the ground and immediately didn't dare to move.

Mu Jingchi leaned back in his chair and asked with a smile, "Finally admit it?" ”

I said with a cold face, "I stole your pastry." ”

He asked lightly, "What else?" ”

I said, "I also ate the noodles that Zhou's mother brought in." ”

He said, "Did someone I let you move?" ”

I said, "No." ”

"So what?" he asked. ”

I said, "I'm willing to go to the ancestral hall and receive a two-day penalty." ”

Steward Zhou also seemed to hear the news and rushed over, he saw me and Zhou's mother kneeling on the ground, so he said to Mu Jingchi: "Sir......" After a while, he said: "Now that the old woman is older, the more confused people are, please forgive her for these mistakes, next time, next time I will strictly control her behavior, and I will never let her commit it again." ”

Steward Zhou is the oldest person in the Mu family, no one knows how long he has been in the Mu family, I only heard people say that since Mu Jingchi's father's generation, he has been in the Mu house, and he is the one who dares to reprimand me unscrupulously except for Mu Jingchi.

Almost no one in the entire Mu family dared not listen to him, and now that Steward Zhou came to intercede in person, Mu Jingchi naturally gave him face and said: "You husband and wife have been in the Mu family for almost half of your lives, since you have spoken, I naturally won't say much, but." His eyes swept coldly at me and Zhou's mother and said, "Don't take it as an example." ”

Zhou's mother's tense body finally softened, and Lao Zhou also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you, Mr. for being willing to give Lao Zhou this face." ”

Mu Jingchi instructed the servants waiting behind him: "Help Mother Zhou go down." ”

The servant sighed, and then walked over, and the housekeeper of Zhou helped Zhou's mother up from the ground, Zhou's mother was old, her feet were not good, and she knelt for a while, she staggered a little, she bowed to Mu Jingchi, wiped her old tears, and said in a choked voice: "Old slave, thank you, sir." ”

Steward Zhou knew that Mu Jingchi still had something to deal with, so he pulled Zhou's mother out of the study, leaving me alone to continue to kneel there.

Mu Jingchi looked at me, threw the teacup in his hand on the table, and sneered, "Continue to kneel for me." ”

After he finished speaking, he stopped staying in the study and went to the bedroom to rest.

There were two servants left in the study to guard me, and this time it was a real kneeling, and there was no longer any fake.

I didn't dare to throw tricks again, this time I knelt until the next morning, the sky was bright, after Mu Jingchi came out of the room, Zhou's mother happened to come up with breakfast, she saw me kneeling on the ground, this time I didn't dare to say anything, carefully put the breakfast on the table, and asked softly: "Sir, Miss's breakfast ......"

Mu Jingchi knew what she was going to ask, took the hot towel handed by the servant, and said, "Let her continue to kneel." ”

Zhou's mother flashed a trace of loss in her eyes, so she could only bear to say, "Okay." ”

After he wiped his hands, he threw the towel in the basin, he didn't use breakfast, just handled the work on the table as usual, Wang Shuyi was gone, so the study was served by Steward Zhou.

After that, no one spoke in the whole study, except for the occasional flipping of paper, and the steaming breakfast had evaporated all its heat and became cold.

My legs were numb and I had lost all sensation.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Zhou's mother came up again and asked if lunch was served upstairs, and Mu Jingchi stopped the pen in his hand. After glancing at the time, he said to Zhou's mother, "Send it upstairs." ”

Zhou's mother: "Hey. After a while, he asked, "The young lady?" ”

He bowed his head again and did not speak.

Mother Zhou knew what Mu Jingchi meant, and the loss in her eyes became heavier, so she quietly retreated again.

It didn't take long for the meal to be served, Mu Jingchi also didn't touch it, he kept dealing with the matter at hand, and he didn't know how long it took, Steward Zhou, who was grinding ink on the side, reminded in a low voice: "Sir, it's time to eat." ”

Mu Jing said later: "Give it to her, she will finish eating on her knees." ”

Steward Zhou was stunned for a second, and then he realized what he said, and then replied yes, bringing the still warm food on the table and walking towards me, I am indeed so hungry that I can't do it, from this morning to now, people are hungry and sleepy.

After Steward Zhou put the food in front of me, I was so hypocritical, picked up the chopsticks and devoured it, Steward Zhou saw that I was hungry like this, so he shook his head helplessly, walked towards Mu Jingchi again, and asked softly: "Then I will let someone back up for you?" ”

Mu Jingchi flipped through the document and said, "No." ”

Steward Zhou frowned and said, "But you haven't ...... twice."

Mu Jingchi raised his eyes and glanced at him unhappily, and said two words: "Long-winded." ”

Steward Zhou couldn't continue to talk, so he could only wait quietly aside.

When I had finished eating, I had some porridge left on the plate, so I cautiously asked, "Do you want to drink it?" ”

Steward Zhou took a look at the leftovers, and even said: "The kitchen is warm, and when it's time to let the servants bring fresh food." ”

Since he said so, then I can't say anything, so I put down the chopsticks, and a servant came forward to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and when he was about to leave, Mu Jingchi put down the pen in his hand and said lightly: "Take it." ”

The servant immediately stopped, and looked at Steward Zhou at a loss, and Steward Zhou said again: "Take it." The maid came to her senses and gently placed the rest of my porridge on the desk.

Mu Jingchi picked up the half bowl of porridge casually, and then ate it slowly with the spoon I had used.

After he finished half a bowl of porridge, he wiped his lips with a handkerchief and said to me, "Are you full?" ”

It was a lot milder than last night, and I thought he was finally not angry, and his face was dyed with joy, and he immediately replied, "It's full." ”

Who knew that in the next second, he said again: "Since you are full, continue to kneel well." ”

Even Steward Zhou, who was pouring tea, heard Mu Jingchi's words, his hands shook a little unsteadily, and the tea was poured out crookedly.

The joy on my face couldn't get up and down, and for a long time, I could only bow my head and say, "Yes." ”

Although my knee was numb before, it could still support it, but in the afternoon I was a little shaky, and an indescribable sharp pain in my kneecap went straight to the bottom of my heart.

I was sweating profusely, trying my best to keep myself from falling, but after a long time of stability, before I knew it, my body fell back, and the maid serving tea passed by and called: "Miss! "Catching me with his hand, I realized that I was leaning back.

After the servant helped me who was unsteady on his knees, he immediately looked sideways at Mu Jingchi, but this little episode did not attract his attention, and he continued to work on business.

Several times later, after I fell to the ground, there was no servant to help me, so I lay on the ground, gritted my teeth, and little by little supported myself, and continued to kneel there.

Finally, the sky fell, I don't know how many times I fell, how many times I got up, and when I fell down again, I finally didn't have the strength to get up.

I lay on the ground, squirming with difficulty, and my instinctive consciousness was still supporting my body, but the moment my knee hit the ground, the pain in my heart went straight to the bottom of my heart, and I cried out.

As soon as I wanted to bend my body to hug my knees, I clasped my hands with both hands, and when I opened my eyes to see, my body was picked up.

He carried me straight to the room, I looked at him in a daze, looked at his face, and began to push my hand against my chest, I wanted to speak, but as soon as I opened my mouth, all I let out was a moan of pain.

He lifted the quilt and put me down on his bed, and just as he was about to lift my skirt and check the wound on my knee, I started to kick him like crazy and said, "Go away!" I won't let you touch me! You go away! ”

But he ignored me, forcibly held my ankle ring, controlled my whole lower body, and lifted my skirt to the knee, and he saw the injury on my knee, and I cried instantly.

I couldn't move my feet. I could only grab the pillow on the bed and smash it at him and say, "Didn't you make me kneel?" Now I'm here again with a fake kindness, you go away, you go away for me! ”

But he ignored me, restrained my legs, took the plaster from the servant's hand, and wiped it for me, and I cried and screamed like crazy, and kept hitting him with pillows, telling him to go away and not touch me, but he controlled my lower body and rubbed it for me very quickly.

When all the medicines were ready, the servant did not dare to stay any longer, and quietly withdrew from the room.

I was lying on the quilt and cried so much that I couldn't stop crying, and I didn't pay attention to him, just crying, and my voice was hoarse.

He grabbed me from the quilt, and I tried to push him away, but before he could push him away, he grabbed my hand and held me in his arms.

I couldn't push him, so I grabbed him by the clothes. Pulling his hair, hysterically venting his temper, he just hugged me, held me steadily, for a long time, before he said: "How can I be so good, aren't you also torturing me when you are uncomfortable?" He grabbed my head: "But, why are you disobedient, why don't you be obedient, and force me to do this to you every time, I am not punishing you, but myself." ”

I grabbed his clothes, cried until I was exhausted, and said, "It's you who want to do this to me, it's you, you're going to marry me to someone else, you punish me for kneeling, you turn me into a cripple, you blame me now, you still blame me." ”

I lay on his shoulder, I didn't have any strength, I just cried, but just now I cried so violently that my body twitched.

He grabbed my head with his big hand, lowered his head and kissed me on the corner of my forehead and said, "It's my fault, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have punished you, I shouldn't have made you kneel for so long, I shouldn't have made you stubborn with me, I shouldn't." He whispered, "Don't cry, okay?" ”

I ignored him, still sobbing on his shoulder, my hands around his neck.

He sighed softly and said, "What should I do with you?" ”

I was so tired, I didn't sleep all night last night, and I cried with him again just now, and I curled up on his chest, and I fell asleep in a daze.

I don't know how long I slept, and when I woke up again, I was woken up by a knock on the door outside the house, I opened my eyes and saw that the person was still in Mu Jingchi's bed, in his arms, and he was flipping through a book in his hand.

Outside, Zhou's mother asked, "Sir, do you want to prepare a meal?" ”

"Ready." Mu Jingchi closed the book in his hand.

Zhou's mother retreated from the door of the room, because there was a quiet outside the door.

Mu Jingchi looked down at me and asked, "Eat first?" ”

My eyes were a little swollen and a little cloudy, and I couldn't see his face clearly, so I drilled into his arms.

He chuckled, and after I had drilled for a while, he patted me on the head and said, "Freshen up first, how." ”

I muffled my voice under the quilt and said, "Then you hold me." ”

Then I stretched out my hand from under the quilt and wrapped my arms around his waist, and just as my hand was about to get into his clothes, he grabbed my messy hand: "Nonsense again? ”

I said, "Cold hands." ”

He smiled and asked, "It's all stuffed in the quilt, it's still cold?" ”

He let go of my hand, just about to call the servants outside to come in and wash me, my hand once again got into his clothes like a snake, his hands pressed against his chest to keep warm, he didn't know if it was cold or a foreign body suddenly entered, slightly shocked, he grabbed my hand extremely quickly, this time a little angry, he said with a serious face: "Take your hands out." ”

I didn't dare to continue, so I could only pull my hand out of his chest.

Soon the servant came in, and he stopped looking at me. Got up and left the room.

Later, when he arrived downstairs, Mu Jingchi sat at the dining table and said, "You'll accompany me to Yuan's house later." ”

His face had not eased, and he was still a little unsmiling, and I said sullenly, "What are you doing at Yuan's house." ”

He asked rhetorically, "What do you say?" ”

I suddenly remembered that he was going to take me to Yuan's house to apologize, and I immediately put down my chopsticks and said, "I don't want to go." ”

He said, "I can't help you." ”

I looked at him with a frown.

He ignored me anymore.

I sneered and said, "Do you think the Yuan family still dares to want me?" Now in the entire Jinling City, who doesn't know that I, Lu Qingye, wandered around Goolan Courtyard in broad daylight, what is the identity of the Yuan family, and dare to ask me for this-"

Before I finished speaking, Mu Jingchi slapped the chopsticks on the table with his backhand, and Zhou's mother gently pulled me on the side.

I snorted coldly, didn't speak again, and fiddled with the food in the bowl.

After we finished eating, Mu Jingchi took me to Yuan's house to thank me, I didn't expect that the top brand of Chunlan Courtyard and my mother were also at Yuan's house, and I personally explained to Mrs. Yuan what happened that day.

The card clearly described what happened that day to Mrs. Yuan, Mrs. Yuan's face softened, and she looked at Mu Jingchi who was blowing tea on the side and said: "I said, Qingye is not the kind of girl who doesn't know how to measure, and today's newspaper office is really good at scribbling." Seeing it that morning almost scared me to death. ”

Mu Jingchi said with a smile: "Qingye was abroad when she was a teenager, so she didn't care about the world, she has always listened to Chunlan Yuan's Zi Jiuqin skills, so she has always wanted to visit, I really didn't think too much about it that day, and I ask Mrs. Yuan to forgive me." ”

Mrs. Yuan smiled and said, "Since the matter has been explained clearly, it will be fine." Speaking of this, Mrs. Yuan looked at me again: "Qingye, in the future, you can't go to the girl's house in that kind of place, if you like to listen to the piano, I can take you to the theater, I heard that there is a piano girl in the pear orchard, and she plays very well." ”

Mu Jingchi looked at me and said, "Thank you Mrs. Yuan soon." ”

I didn't expect Mu Jingchi to have this trick, I sneered and didn't answer.

Seeing this, Mrs. Yuan frowned and looked at him in confusion.

Regarding my cold face, Mu Jingchi still smiled gently and politely and said, "I had a little trouble with me this morning, Mrs. Yuan, don't be surprised." ”

Mrs. Yuan laughed dryly, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

On the way back, Chunlanyuan's mother still has a top brand. I was sent back to Chunlan Courtyard by Mu Jingchi, I didn't say a word to him during the whole process, and when I arrived at the door, Zhou's mother came to pick me up, I ignored her and went directly to the room.

Sure enough, the road is one foot high, and the plan I worked so hard for was taken by him lightly, obviously Mrs. Yuan's explanation to Mu Jingchi just now was accepted, and the tone was more than a little better than in the last call.

Regarding the divorce, I didn't say a word, but I forgot that Yuan Chengjun originally looked at the wealth of the Mu family, and his future daughter-in-law, no matter how notorious she was, it didn't matter to him.

The important thing is that he wants money, and Mu Jingchi can give him money, and I am just an excuse and a bridge between them.

That night, I didn't close my eyes all night.

By the next morning, Mu Jingchi was obviously in a good mood, and Steward Zhou talked to him about the soldiers on the Yuan family's side, and heard that the battle over there was heating up, and after the Huo family had gone through that huge wound, this sneak attack on Beiguan was obviously a little powerless.

Steward Zhou also said that Yuan Chengjun came with a letter this morning, inviting Mu Jingchi to go hunting in the northern scenery.

Mu Jingchi didn't even go out much, not to mention hunting in the cold places in the north, I almost immediately thought in my heart, it would be hell if he would go.

But who knew that such an idea had just come to mind, but Mu Jingchi replied with great interest: "Come to think of it, it should be the coldest season in the north now." ”

Steward Zhou smiled and said, "Yes, it's more than ten degrees below zero over there now." ”

Mu Jingchi said: "I haven't been there for many years, and I remember the last time I went, it was when I was eighteen years old." ”

Steward Zhou said, "You used to be a master of archery. ”

Before mentioning it, Mu Jingchi had a smile in his eyes and said, "Time flies so fast." ”

Steward Zhou asked cautiously, "Then how do you plan to reply to this letter?" ”

He thought for a moment and suddenly said, "January 13 is a good day to travel. ”

Steward Zhou said, "You want to go?" ”

He didn't deny it, but looked at me and said, "Wait a minute, let Mother Zhou pack up your things." ”

I vetoed: "I'm not going." It's cold weather, so I don't go. ”

Mu Jingchi ignored me and asked Steward Zhou to go down to handle it.

I didn't expect Mu Jingchi to really go to Beiguan, when I returned upstairs, Zhou's mother was packing up my things for me, I asked Zhou's mother: "Can Mu Jingchi go to the north with this body?" ”

Zhou's mother brought my thickest jacket, and she said, "Mr. has been there before, pay attention to keeping warm, it shouldn't be anything." ”

I said, "Why did he take me with him?" ”

Zhou's mother glanced at me with a smile and said, "Isn't it good to take you out to play?" ”

I didn't speak, Mother Zhou seemed to remember something, and suddenly came over to me and said, "Miss, you are older now, do you know the difference between men and women?" ”

I looked up at her, and when she saw that I didn't understand, she simply sat down with me, shook my hand, and said, "Although you and Mr. are very close, how can you say that apart from the relationship between your sister and Mr., you are not related to him by blood. ”

Zhou's mother said vaguely, I didn't understand what she wanted to express, Zhou's mother saw that I still didn't understand, and said: "Anyway, something like the last time you rested in Mr.'s room, it can't happen again in the future, he is an adult man after all." ”

Mother Zhou went around and around to say this, and didn't continue, but stopped at the point, and then continued to clean up for me.

On the thirteenth day of January, Mu Jingchi took me out for the first time, and we took a plane to Beiguan, where Yuan Chengjun came to pick us up with Yuan Lin.

The north is indeed colder than the south, and that day I was wrapped in three layers inside and three layers outside, but I was still so cold that I stomped my feet.

But Yuan Jiuye took Yuan Lin to greet us at least, as soon as Yuan Jiuye saw Mu Jingchi, he jumped off the horse, walked to Mu Jingchi's side, and said with a smile: "Jingchi, I didn't expect you to really go to the appointment." ”

Compared with their military uniforms, Mu Jingchi was covered with a snow-white mink fur, and there was a faint sense of nobility between his eyebrows, compared with rough people, he was so elegant and pleasing to the eye.

He smiled and said to Yuan Jiuye: "I heard that Jiu Ye won the battle. Today, I came to say hello in person. ”

Yuan Jiuye laughed loudly, obviously in a good mood, but soon he stopped laughing and said, "But that day, I'm really embarrassed that such a thing happened......

Mu Jingchi smiled and said, "The Ninth Master doesn't have to mind, you and I both know it." ”

As soon as Yuan Chengjun saw me standing behind Mu Jingchi at this time, he said, "Qingye, I'm here too." He quickly pushed Yuan Lin on the side in front of me and said, "Look, both of them are half husband and wife, and they are still holding back here." ”

Yuan Lin and I glanced at each other, both of them were lukewarm, but Yuan Lin was hindered by his father's words, so he called out: "Miss Lu, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

I didn't respond lightly: "It's been a long time, I remember the first time I met, we were in the firewood room, right?" ”

As soon as my words came out, the smile on Yuan Chengjun's face was stunned, and Mu Jingchi glanced at me, but he didn't say anything, but said to Yuan Chengjun: "Why don't you talk about it first?" ”

When Yuan Chengjun heard this, he laughed and said, "Let's go, I have already asked people to go down to prepare a table of wine and food, and I think that I should have been to the north for many years." ”

Mu Jingchi smiled and said, "It's been about ten years. ”

Yuan Chengjun and Mu Jingchi walked in front, and Yuan Lin and I walked behind, neither of us said a word.

Although Yuan Chengjun and the others came to pick us up on horseback, they later changed the car in order to treat us.

The car drove past the grassland in the north, the vast territory could not be seen at a glance, everywhere was a snow-capped field, and from time to time there were herds of cattle and sheep passing by the grassland, but it was indescribably pleasant.

The car drove for about 20 minutes until we arrived at a camp where the army was stationed, Mu Jingchi and I got out of the car, and Yuan Chengjun led us into the tent.

The inside of the tent was really much warmer than the outside, burning firewood, and there were many people inside, about Yuan Chengjun's subordinates, and some women in bright clothes singing and dancing in the tent, indescribably hearty.

Before we sat down, a woman came to Mu Jingchi with a glass of wine singing and dancing, singing the lyrics of the toast in her mouth, and Mu Jingchi smiled. Very gentle, he took the glass of wine from the woman's hand and drank it down.

The woman's face was slightly red, and she had been singing around him for a long time, and then she danced again and came to me, and just handed me the wine, and I was about to drink it, Mu Jingchi stretched out his hand to block it slightly, and smiled at the woman and said, "She can't drink wine." ”

A hint of disappointment flashed across the woman's face, but she didn't dwell on any other place.

Actually, I really wanted to drink that glass of wine, Mu Jingchi seemed to see what I was thinking, so he sent Xie Dong over to guard me and prevent me from drinking.

I looked at him, a little angry, so I found a place to sit down, he didn't have time to care about me, in their eyes, I was just a child, and adults naturally had things to talk about.

I chose a corner and started eating and drinking, but it was all meat, and I took two bites and found it boring, so I drank the weird-tasting milk tea on the table.

Xie Dong was still standing behind me like a wooden man, at this time I saw Yuan Lin walking towards me, as soon as I saw him coming, I got up and wanted to leave, but before I could take a few steps, Yuan Lin called behind me: "Miss Lu." ”

I stopped, knowing that I couldn't hide, so I turned to look at him and called with a smile: "Second Master Yuan." ”

Yuan Lin held a glass of wine and a wine glass in his hand, walked up to me and asked, "I toast you?" ”

I was about to pick it up, but who knew that I felt a sharp gaze shoot over, only to find that Mu Jingchi not far away glanced at me, my hand holding the wine glass stopped, and said to Yuan Lin with a smile: "Sorry, I can't drink." ”

After hearing this, Yuan Lin smiled and said, "I forgot, Miss Lu is a Jiangnan woman." Then he said, "Shall I give you a cup of tea?" ”

I said, "Okay." Then he picked up a bowl of milk tea, and Yuan Lin and I touched the cup.

After both of us drank half a cup, Yuan Lin didn't seem to have any intention of leaving.

I sneered in my heart and thought, what did he want to do, just as I was thinking about what reason to throw him away, Yuan Lin was very knowledgeable, and didn't say anything more to me, so he went somewhere else, as if it was an obligation and a greeting.

As soon as he left, I felt that the air was much smoother, and I sat down again.

While they were still talking, I was sitting here as a woman, bored, when a maid came up and said to take me to my room to rest.

I didn't stay any longer, so I followed her out of here and went back to my account.

As soon as I entered the tent, I found that there was a set of ethnic minority clothes hanging inside, the same style as the maid's body, but the color was different, so I immediately asked the maid to tell me how to wear it, and the maid was a grassland woman, so she was very happy to tell me to wear it.

When I got dressed, and asked the maid to comb my hair for me, it was already half an hour, and there was no sound of talking outside, thinking that Mu Jingchi was about to disperse, so I asked the maid where Mu Jingchi's account was.

The maid put down her comb, led me out, led me to a tent, and said, "This is Mr. Mu's account." ”

I said to her, "Thank you." ”

She smiled and didn't care, so she opened the tent for me.

I walked in and found that I didn't see Mu Jingchi except for a maid packing up her things.

I asked the maid if there was a break.

The maid who was tidying up the house told me that the banquet usually doesn't disperse until eleven o'clock.

I finally thought about it, and decided to sit in the account and wait for him, I don't know how long I waited, and I was a little drowsy, so I simply took off my shoes, got into Mu Jingchi's bed, and fell asleep in a daze.

I don't know how long I slept, when I felt someone patting my face, I slowly opened my eyes, Mu Jingchi's face was above me, I rubbed my eyes, a little sleepy and asked, "Why did you come back." ”

He seemed to have drunk a lot of wine, and his face was not the same as usual, but with a little red, and he looked at my hair and clothes and asked, "Why do you dress like this?" ”

I said, "Did the maid put it on me, does it look good?" ”

Mu Jing didn't speak, just looked at me, his eyes were as gentle as water, and it seemed to be a little different, I couldn't tell what the difference was.

After a long time, he sighed, stroked my braided head, and said, "I'll send you back." ”

I nodded obediently, but didn't move, just put my arms around his neck.

He smiled and picked me up, but as soon as he picked me up, the bell on my body jingled, and when he saw it, he probably thought it was not appropriate to go out like this, so he reached out and pulled the bell off my body.

When he arrived at my house, there was no light in the tent, and he wanted to go to light it, but he couldn't find a place for a while, so he walked towards the bed by feeling, and when he put me on the bed, his body pressed against me did not move.

I don't know what he's thinking, I just feel his breath sweeping in my ears.

For a long time, he called out in a hoarse voice in the dark: "Nannan." ”

I snorted.

He said, "Let go of me." ”

I didn't move, but my hand around his waist moved up little by little.

When his hand was about to get into his chest, he grabbed my hand, and he still had sense, grabbed my wrist and said, "Presumptuous." ”

He suddenly shoved me onto the bed, pushing me far away in an instant.

When I felt him turn around and want to leave, I hugged him from behind and said, "From the moment I woke up and opened my eyes to see you, I knew you wanted me." ”

This time, he didn't move again, he didn't push me away again, and let me pester.

I wrapped my legs around him from behind like a snake, and I kissed his neck, his earlobes, his cheeks, and when I was about to find his lips, I sneered and tried to let go of him.

He suddenly sneered, and before I could react, he suddenly grabbed my hair and threw my whole body on the bed, and then he covered me, grabbed my chin and asked, "You learned to seduce people at a young age, huh?" ”

I didn't expect him to take it seriously, I was very uncomfortable being pinched by him, and my face subconsciously pinched twice, but my chin was pinched by him again, he blushed and said coldly: "Listen, I don't like you to make such jokes with me, you treat this kind of thing as a trick to make people, but do you know what it means to a man?" ”

I looked at him with my eyes open and didn't quite understand, and he sneered and said, "Meaning he's going to tear you apart." ”

This is not the first time I have played this kind of game with Mu Jingchi, but there has never been a time when he has warned me in such a serious tone.

When I saw that he was really angry, I whispered, "I won't tease you in the future." ”

He let go of my jaw. The emotions in his eyes were forcibly extinguished by him this time.

I just wanted to hold his hand, but he scolded in a deep voice: "Sit honestly! ”

I pursed my lips and sat there honestly.
