I said, "Mother Zhou, I have no other way. ”

Zhou's mother said very resolutely: "This kind of thing is a lose-lose situation, and the gains outweigh the losses, miss, it is impossible for me to agree." ”

Zhou's mother was extremely sure, she seemed to be afraid that I would continue to plead, so she turned away from me, and hurried out the door without looking back, leaving me standing there alone and watching.

For fear of arousing Mu Jingchi's suspicions, I didn't stay in the room for too long, and hurried downstairs.

This dinner was unprecedentedly harmonious, Wang Zhizhi kept serving me vegetables again, and asked me to eat more with a smile, such Wang Zhizhi made me a little uncomfortable, but I didn't show anything, just bowed my head and ate.

Mu Jingchi seemed to acquiesce in Wang Zhizhi's behavior, and rarely cared for Wang Zhizhi for a few words, Wang Zhizhi was a little happy but seemed restrained to answer Mu Jingchi.

After eating, I lost my appetite, so I put down the chopsticks early, Wang Zhizhi was slightly surprised and asked, "Qingye, won't you eat it?" ”

I smiled and said, "I'm a little full, I can't eat." ”

Wang Zhizhi still wanted to persuade him, but Mu Jingchi opened his mouth and asked, "But the snacks are full." ”

I thought about it for a moment and nodded.

He said, "Sure enough, you shouldn't have been allowed to eat that much before." ”

I stuck out my tongue and said, "It's all fruit." ”

Then I got up from the table and said, "Then brother-in-law, I'll go upstairs first." Mu Jingchi instructed the maid on the side and said, "The food is warm in the kitchen, and the young lady eats it when she is hungry." ”

The maid said, "Yes." ”

Mu Jing looked at me lately, smiled lightly and said, "Go ahead, don't sleep yet, wait for two hours to make up for dinner." ”

I was dissatisfied and said, "If you can't eat, you won't be able to eat, and you won't be able to eat in two hours." ”

Mu Jingchi ignored me, and said in a non-negotiable tone: "Don't say more, I'll have dinner on time in two hours." ”

I had to pout, and after a while, I replied, "Yes." And he trotted out from before him and went upstairs.

Wang Zhizhi said on the side: "Sure enough, he is still a child, and he is still staring at his meal." ”

Mu Jingchi's eyes fell on the back of my trotting all the way, shook his head with a smile and said, "It's not worry-free." ”

After I went back to the room, Zhou's mother had no choice but to follow me in, she seemed to be afraid that I would mention that matter again, her eyes kept dodging, but I never mentioned it to her again.

The day before the wedding, I was standing on the edge of the bed rummaging through my clothes, and I was worried about which clothes to wear, when Mu Jingchi said at the door: "What is this." ”

I looked back and saw that he was standing in the doorway, and I was about to throw my clothes on the bed, and then I trotted over to him, and pulled him and said, "Help me to see which clothes I should wear tomorrow." ”

He smiled and let me drag him, and after I dragged him to a chair and sat down, I took a piece of clothing and compared it on my body and asked, "How is this?" ”

Mu Jingchi looked at it carefully, but he didn't speak, but asked with a smile: "What, you want to be a bridesmaid?" ”

I hugged my clothes and said, "No, it's just that when someone else gets married, you have to dress festively." ”

The maid came up with tea, Mu Jingchi took it casually, smiled and didn't say anything, just lowered his eyes and brushed the tea, I immediately walked towards him, squatted in front of him and asked, "Brother-in-law, what are you laughing at?" ”

Then he put down the teacup, reached out and touched my head, his eyes were full of helplessness, and said, "My little girl really doesn't understand the world at all." ”

He patiently explained the truth to me, saying: "You can't wear white to attend a wedding, and you can't dress too eye-catching, because it is easy to steal the limelight from the bride at the wedding." He picked up the big red dress in my hand again, and said with a smile: "This one is too public, not suitable for your age, and naturally not suitable for the occasion of that day, if the other party is a Western-style wedding, those who don't know will mistake you for the bride." ”

I explained: "Qing'er and Biyu chose it for me, and they both said it looked good, and they forced me to wear it." ”

Mu Jingchi glanced at Biyu and Qing'er, and said with a smile: "What do the maids know, the brighter the color, the better they feel it is festive." He patted me twice on the head and said, "Try a few more for me." ”

I smiled and said, "You help me choose?" ”

He nodded.

I grinned and said, "Okay, I'll go and get you." ”

With that, I got up from the ground, ran to the bedside and quickly picked up a few clothes on the bed and walked towards the bathroom.

This time, I changed into a small water-red dress, stood in front of Mu Jingchi, and asked with my skirt, "How about this?" ”

Mu Jing didn't speak, he didn't speak, it means that it doesn't work, I immediately went into the room to change the next one, this time it was sky blue, but the design was a little explicit, revealing most of the back.

Mu Jingchi frowned, I stuck out my tongue, covered my chest, and walked towards the bathroom again.

But before I could slip into the bathroom, he said behind me, "Wait a minute." After a pause, he said, "Come here." ”

I squirmed for a while before I walked over to him, and when he reached him, he lifted my skirt and looked at it and asked, "I don't remember any of these dresses for you." He rubbed his fingers over the fabric of his skirt, then looked up at me and asked, "Did you buy it abroad?" ”

I immediately nodded, checked his face and said, "I bought it at a foreign ball." ”

He said, "How old you were that year." ”

I said, "Sixteen ......."

He sneered and said, "I've got a long job." ”

As soon as I saw his face change, I immediately explained: "This is how they are dressed abroad!" ”

He asked rhetorically: "You haven't been abroad?" ”

I whispered, "But that's what was fashionable back then." His expression did not soften, but frowned and said, "Go and change the skirt." ”

I clutched my chest and asked timidly, "This ...... Isn't it possible? ”

Mu Jingchi asked rhetorically: "What do you say?" ”

As soon as I heard his words, of course, I didn't hesitate to go into the bathroom and change my skirt, and Jasper hurriedly followed in to help me change it.

I said to Jasper, "He has a lot of control." I still looked in the mirror with some reluctance and said, "I think this dress is very good, what does he know as a man." ”

Biyu blushed slightly, and didn't dare to look directly at me, she said, "Mr. Miss is right, this ...... The scale is too large, and you can cover the front with a few pieces of fabric, and the back is as if you are not wearing clothes. ”

I turned to look at myself in the mirror, my fingers stroking over my smooth back and saying, "You know what, this kind of backless outfit has become popular abroad in those years." I thought about it, smiled and said proudly: "Anyway, I've worn it several times, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't wear it." ”

Biyu put on a dress handed in by Zhou's mother for me, I don't know which one, after I put it on, I looked at myself in the mirror, the skirt didn't seem to be anything special, so I went out and stood in front of Mu Jingchi and asked, "It's good." ”

Mu Jingchi nodded.

I said, "Isn't it too ordinary?" I'm also a person of status, and I will definitely be drowned in a crowd when I wear this dress. ”

Mu Jingchi beckoned to me again, and said with a smile, "Come here." ”

I lifted my skirt and walked awkwardly towards him, after he pulled me to my lap and sat down, he raised his hand and gently put a string of cold things around my neck, I looked sideways into the mirror, it was a string of delicate diamond necklaces, designed extremely delicate and fine, with around the neck, shining, it would shine, and my ordinary skirt would be set off a few degrees.

I ran my fingers over the diamond and smiled in the mirror, and he hugged me, kissed me twice on the neck, and whispered, "Do you like it?" ”

I smiled and said, "Yes." ”

Mu Jingchi chuckled, just kissed my neck, I felt a little itchy, so I circled his shoulder, buried his face in his shoulder, I don't know when, the maid had already retreated from the house, he picked me up, put me on the bed, and pressed down on my back.

His lips went down the back of my neck, the skirt on my body was faded by him, I lay on the bed with a crimson face, inexplicably felt weak and helpless, I wanted to use the quilt to block, his hand suddenly circled his waist, my body and him fit tightly, I only felt that my cheeks were red, Mu Jingchi hugged me tighter and tighter, I have never been in such a way, the whole person is sensitive.

Feeling extremely ashamed, he could only gasp and say to Mu Jingchi with difficulty: "Don't, I don't want this." ”

I wanted to ask him for a kiss, but Mu Jingchi just pressed me the bed, his face was next to my neck, and I heard his hoarse voice say, "Don't want anything." ”

I blushed and said, "Anyway, anyway, it's just ......"

I couldn't speak, I just felt that Mu Jingchi was particularly emotional tonight.

He suddenly sank without warning, and completely squeezed in, I grabbed the sheet and snorted, I didn't want to make a sound, I only dared to bite my lip and let him torture.

He always knew that I was deliberately enduring, but every time he tried to coax me, he broke my lips and kissed me deeply, kissed me for a long time, and the kiss made me almost unbearable, and when he cried softly, he whispered: "Good, listen to me." ”

I said, "I don't-"

But before I could finish speaking, I snorted, and the feeling made my body completely uncontrollable, and when it was relieved, I cried and said, "You go out, it hurts." ”

He laughed in a low voice around my neck and said, "Then I'll lighten it?" ”

I was a little confused, my head was a little confused, I nodded indiscriminately, I nodded, and he kissed me, swallowing up my only three points of consciousness again.

Later, I lost my consciousness at all, and I was tortured by him to tears and cry.

He coaxed me to call him Langjun, call his husband, call him brother, these words I usually refuse to say to him, but now when it comes to this matter, I am completely unfazed, and he coaxes him to burst out one by one, each sentence is softer than the other, and the sentence is more emotional than the other.

He was very satisfied, and when he hugged me deeply, he always whispered some red-faced love words in my ear, and then taught me and said them to him.

I don't have any sense of discernment, he taught me what to say, very well-behaved, and he listened to it with extra gentleness.

He seemed to have tormented me that night over the dress, and he focused on my back one night, waking up in the morning with almost all traces of love, and I couldn't see it at all.

When Biyu changed my clothes in the morning, her face was so red as if she had been burned by fire, she was older than me, so she naturally knew what was going on, but I felt that it didn't matter and asked her to dress me, and when I came out of the room, Mu Jingchi also got up, and he was getting dressed.

Thinking of what he had coaxed me to say last night, I ignored it, and sat sullenly and angrily.

After the maid served Mu Jingchi and got dressed, he walked over to me, sat down beside me, put his arms around me and asked, "I've been sulking all morning, and I haven't stopped yet?" ”

I said, "You're a liar." ”

He chuckled.

I turned my back to him and said, "Anyway, you're not serious, I don't want to pay attention to you." ”

Mu Jingchi approached me again, smiled in my ear and said, "How long are you going to ignore me." He ran his hand through my hair wrapped around the diamond necklace, and I said hatefully, "I will ignore you for the rest of my life." ”

Mu Jingchi chuckled in my ear and said, "Silly girl." Then he picked me up from the bed, straightened my clothes, and said, "I'll pick you up in the evening." ”

I shook my head and said, "No, I'm going to come back by myself." ”

He said, "Not really." ”

I nodded and said, "It's not like I was a kid anymore, and people still think I can't wean." ”

Mu Jingchi laughed twice.

Because time was running out, Zhou's mother reminded on the side: "Miss, we have to go downstairs for dinner, otherwise we won't be able to catch the wedding." ”

Mu Jingchi took me by the hand and said, "Let's go." I followed him, when I arrived downstairs, the maid was arranging breakfast, I had breakfast with Mu Jingchi, and after eating a full seven, the car was already waiting outside, I put down the spoon in my hand, and got up from the dining table, Zhou's mother took my handbag, but I didn't get the handbag yet, because I was stepping on high heels, and the ground was marble tiles, my shoes almost fell, but fortunately, Zhou's mother next to me helped me.

Mu Jingchi sat at the dining table and frowned at me, I smiled and said, "The ground is too slippery, a little unstable." ”

I remembered something, rushed to Mu Jingchi's side again, quickly dropped a kiss on his face and said, "Brother-in-law, I'll go first!" Then I ran out happily, and Mu Jingchi said behind me: "Walk well." ”

I ignored him, and when I got into the car, I let the driver drive.

The car went out of the Mu family house all the way unimpeded, Biyu sat next to me, today I took her out, Biyu seemed a little excited, but I was a lot calmer, I just felt a little tired leaning there, looking at the scenery outside one by one backwards, the car is getting farther and farther away from the house.

Jasper noticed it, turned her head and asked me, "What's wrong with Miss?" Wasn't you still happy just now? ”

I shook my head and said, "It's nothing, it's just a little tired." ”

Jasper said, "You have just gotten up, how can you be tired." ”

I didn't speak, just stared out in a daze.

Gu's house is not far away, when the car was parked outside the courtyard of the Gu family, it was already full of cars, and there was a waiter at the door to receive me, I walked in with Biyu, and when I walked to the door, Biyu gave my invitation card to the usher, and the waiter knew me, and it seemed that the Gu family had specially instructed me, and when he saw me coming, he called with a smile: "Miss Lu." Then he led me inside.

Biyu and I followed the waitress to swim in the garden, this Gu family's garden is very large, all of them are garden-style design, you can see rockery pavilions everywhere, and stone bridges, but it is very beautiful.

Today's weather is also very powerful, it has rained for so many days, today there is a big sun, I and Jasper are tired, I found a corridor everywhere to sit down, there are also a lot of people sitting on the corridor, are resting, looking at the scenery.

When I sat with Jasper for about ten minutes, I raised my eyes and asked the receptionist, "Do you have a phone here?" ”

The usher looked at me, smiled, and said, "Yes." ”

I said, "Can you take me there?" ”

The usher led me up, and Jasper asked behind me, "Is Miss going to call home?" ”

I looked at her and didn't speak, but as the waitress walked, he led me to a room, about a guest room, for rest, and it was quiet and there was no one.

I glanced back at the usher and smiled and said, "Thank you." ”

The usher smiled and said, "Then I'll wait for you outside, after you make the call, if you feel tired, you can rest in for a while." ”

I smiled and said, "Okay." Then he said to Jasper, "Wait for me outside." ”

Jasper said yes, waited outside with the waitress, and closed the door for me.

The moment I arrived at the room, I didn't hesitate anymore, picked up the phone, and quickly broadcast the number that I had dialed thousands of times in my heart, but after dialing, there was either no one on the other end of the phone, or I couldn't get through.

My grandfather's number has never had such a thing, I dialed Song Alcohol's again, there was no suspense, Song Alcohol's was also broken, and the two calls were broken at the same time, something must have happened.

I slowly buttoned the phone, sat there for a while, got up and walked out, and when Biyu saw me coming out, she smiled and said, "Miss, it's time to start the banquet." ”

I ignored her and walked straight out, but halfway through I stopped and looked at Jasper.

Biyu thought that she had done something wrong, so she whispered and asked later: "Xiao...... Sister, what's wrong? ”

I said, "Jasper, help me get somewhere." ”

Jasper looked at me.

I asked, "Can I trust you?" ”

Jasper had no idea what I was talking about, and looked at me in confusion.

But to this point, I can't afford to drag it out any longer, some risks must be taken, I grabbed her, pulled her to a quiet place, and then wrote an address to Jasper, I said: "You go to this tea house immediately now, ask the boss there, can there be Longjing tea after the spring rain to buy." ”

Biyu asked puzzledly: "Miss, why did you suddenly remember to buy tea?" Isn't there a dragon well at home? ”

I said, "Don't ask, go now." ”

Seeing that my face was serious, it didn't look like a joke, she didn't hesitate, took the address I wrote to her and turned around and wanted to leave, but the moment she was about to leave, I immediately grabbed her again.

Jasper looked back at me, I took her hand and said, "Remember to pay more attention to the whereabouts on the side of the road, you must be careful if others follow." ”

Jasper nodded heavily.

I said, "Go ahead." ”

Then Jasper ran out.

It didn't take long for the banquet to open, and the usher led me to the banquet, and I saw Gu Huizhi at a glance, wearing a white wedding dress, Sina standing beside her, and the two of them saluted the guests together.

When she came to my side, she saw me at a glance and quickly pulled the groom over to greet me and said, "Kiyono." ”

I also stood up immediately, holding a wine glass and smiling, "Meguyuki, congratulations." ”

She was very happy today, and without saying a word, she drank the glass of wine in her hand, and then said to me with a smile: "I am really happy that you can come today." ”

I said, "We're classmates, we should." ”

Gu Huizhi said: "Today, my father learned that you were coming, and kept saying that he wanted to come and say hello to you, I was afraid that they would scare you, so I kept stopping you, and they had to send you a usher, how can he entertain?" ”

I am not familiar with Gu Huizhi's family, and when I was thinking about why they wanted to greet me, I suddenly thought of Mu Jingchi, and instantly smiled, just the two identities of the Mu family and the Yuan family, it was enough for Gu Huizhi's parents to entertain him personally, I understood the reason, so I smiled and said to Gu Huizhi: "Don't be too polite, just treat it normally, I just came to attend the wedding today." ”

Gu Huizhi said: "They are all laymen, I don't care about these, Qingye, I have other places to greet me, so I won't talk to you about it first." ”

I smiled and said, "Okay." ”

Then, she took the groom away again, and then I sat down, and kept looking down at the time on my wrist, and Jasper had not come back, I picked up the wine glass in my hand, and poured it down for myself, and kept telling myself in my heart that I must be calm, I must be calm.

After waiting for about half an hour, Biyu hurried from outside, and when she arrived at my table, she gasped and whispered in my ear, "Miss, the tea house you wrote to me is closed, and I heard that it is no longer open. ”

I rushed up directly from the table, and the table of drinks was shaking, and everyone looked at me, but I couldn't care about their eyes, but frowned and asked, "Why are you not open, are you in the wrong place?" ”

Biyu said: "Yes, miss, I have been gone many times, and the grandmother next door said that the tea house was closed a month ago." ”

I said, "But why?" ”

Biyu said: "No, Grandma said that she didn't know, it was still open the day before, and the bulletin board of the newly listed tea was hung on the door, but the next day, no one came to the tea house again." ”

Hearing Biyu's words, I fell on the chair, Biyu rushed up and grabbed me, she said anxiously, "Miss, are you okay?!" ”

How so? Why is it suddenly closed?

That night, there was a new announcement board that was about to go on the market, and no one came to open the business the next day, so something must have happened, otherwise the tea house would never have been closed.

My mind was in a mess, and I didn't even know what I wanted.

Biyu anxiously asked, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" ”

I didn't speak, just sat there to calm down for a while, I grabbed Jasper and said, "Jasper, help me down to rest first." ”

Seeing that my face was pale, Jasper immediately didn't say anything, so she quickly helped me up from the banquet, and we left the banquet and went back to the lounge in between, I sat on the sofa and kept turning all kinds of possibilities in my mind, but turning around, I couldn't imagine what would happen, and I didn't dare to think about the worst outcome at all.

I said to Jasper, "Jasper, give me a glass of water." ”

When Biyu heard this, she immediately picked up the teapot on the side, poured a cup with trembling hands, and then handed it over, took a sip and drank it, and after suppressing the rising wine in my heart, I calmed down for a few minutes, stood up again, and said to Biyu: "Let's go, you can't be absent for too long, otherwise it will be rude." ”

Jasper didn't expect me to recover so quickly, and she said, "Miss, are you really okay?" ”

I didn't look at her, but walked straight outside, but after a few steps, suddenly a singing voice came from behind me, faintly, I stopped and asked Jasper, "Did you hear anything?" ”

Jasper looked at me incomprehensibly, and after a while, she heard it too, and she said, "It's singing!" ”

It came from a lounge at the top of this corridor, and it was a song of the end of the world.

On such an occasion, on such a day, how could there be such a beautiful sound as the Tianya Singer, and now is the time of the banquet, basically everyone eats in the hall, how can anyone hide here to listen to this kind of song.

I took the jasper to the end step by step, the closer I got to the singing, the clearer it became, someone in the room plucked the pipa and sang: "Life, who does not hesitate to cherish youth, the little sister is like a thread like a needle, Lang is worn together without separation......"

This song is beautiful but lingering, with the accompaniment of the pipa, it is exciting and soul-locking.

When I was about to push the door open, Jasper grabbed my hand and said, "Miss, this is someone else's lounge." ”

I ignored Jasper, just reached out to her, made a shushing gesture at her, and then quietly pushed open the door of the lounge, and the door opened a little crack, just in time to see a man sitting on a chair, listening intoxicatedly, and a figure sitting on the inside of the curtain, faintly peeking on a woman.

The singing voice is soft and sweet.

The man turned his back to us, and only saw his hand, placed on the coffee table, constantly clapping and clapping, just as the woman sang: "Lang, friendship in adversity and love is deep, life, who does not hesitate to be young." ”

The woman behind the curtain stopped plucking the pipa, and suddenly slowly opened the curtain and walked out from inside, the woman had a veil on her face, only revealing a pair of eyes like autumn water, the smile in her eyes, innocent and charming to the extreme, she fell into the man's arms, took the wine glass in her hand to feed the man who hugged her, when the man was intoxicated, a trace of coldness suddenly appeared in the eyes of the woman with the veil, and the next second she covered the man's lips, The wine glass in his hand turned into a sharp knife at some point, and before the man could react, the knife sealed the man's roar.

The man didn't even have time to let out a scream, his body twitched a few times, and after suddenly spurting out a mouthful of blood on the woman's face, he fell to the ground with wide eyes.

The blood stuck to the woman's lower half of the woman's beautiful face through the veil, Jasper was so frightened that she let out a scream at this moment, when I wanted to go back and cover her lips, it was too late, the woman inside found us, and when I was about to leave with Jasper, the door suddenly broke, and a knife stabbed directly at us, such a fast speed, it was not at all what we could dodge, but when the knife was only two or three centimeters away from me, I heard Gu Huizhi suddenly call behind me: "Brother." ”

The knife in the woman's hand stopped suddenly, and she suddenly changed to a push, and rushed into a common room with great speed, breaking the window and escaping.

Gu Huizhi didn't see what happened just now, she just trotted towards us with the hem of her wedding dress, and she smiled and said, "Qingye, why are you here." ”

Jasper's whole person fell to the ground like a ton of stones, Gu Huizhi looked at Biyu, whose eyes were completely out of focus, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" How did you fall? She just squatted down and wanted to help Biyu, but before she could move, suddenly blood slowly meandered out from the half-open door, Gu Huizhi followed the winding blood trail and looked forward, and there was a corpse lying on the ground inside.

"Brother!" Gu Huizhi let out a miserable scream.

Then she lunged at the corpse.

There was chaos at the wedding, with a lot of people coming, and the police, and Jasper and I didn't know how we got out of there.

This marriage has also changed from a happy event to a funeral, I and Biyu are the only witnesses to Gu Huizhi's death, the people of the Gu family did not dare to interrogate, but they went through the process and asked us some things, and quickly called the Mu family's car to send us back, when our car arrived at the Mu family's house in advance, Qing'er and I got off the car, Zhou's mother came out to greet us, and asked with a smile: "Miss, what's the matter, you came back so early?" ”

I didn't pay attention to Zhou's mother's words, and just walked forward.

Mu Jingchi was sitting in the living room playing chess alone, he was holding a white chess piece between his fingertips, he was undecided on the chessboard, when he was thinking, he heard our footsteps, raised his eyes slightly, saw me and Biyu coming back, smiled and put down the chess pieces in his hand, looked at us and asked, "Are you back?" ”

I didn't speak, but soon he noticed a scratch on my neck, faint blood seeping out, he put the white jade chess piece in his hand into the chess box, immediately walked over, frowned and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Jasper burst into tears and said, "Sir, you have killed someone." ”

As soon as Biyu's words came out, I only felt that it was dark in front of me, probably because I was too tired, and my body fell straight down, and Mu Jingchi hugged me.

When I woke up the next day, a doctor was beside my bedside, and Mu Jingchi was sitting there, and when he saw that I was awake, he tucked the quilt corner for me and asked with a smile: "Awake?" ”

I looked at him.

The room was quiet, but my mind was still stuck on the chaotic day of yesterday.

After the doctor mentioned that I had finished the examination, he said to Mu Jingchi: "Miss fainted yesterday because of her mood swings, except for her body is a little weak, there is no other situation, please rest assured." ”

Mu Jingchi said lightly: "Thank you." ”

After the doctor checked for me, Mu Jingchi looked down at me and asked, "Do you want some porridge?" ”

I shook my head and said, "No appetite." ”

This time he rarely didn't force me to eat, but hugged me, Wang Zhizhi walked in, holding a bowl of sugar water in her hand, she handed it to Mu Jingchi, Mu Jingchi took it, and fed me.

I didn't want to drink it, so I dodged away, and he said with a little seriousness, "Don't be willful." ”

He easily pinched my chin with his hand, and fed the spoonful of sugar water, Wang Zhizhi asked on the side, "Qingye, have you seen the appearance of the murderer?" ”

Just as my Wang Zhizhi asked this sentence, suddenly a servant walked in outside the door, and after she arrived at Mu Jingchi's side, she whispered, "Sir, Mr. Yuan has passed." ”

Wang Zhizhi called out in a little surprise: "Brother-in-law? ”

The servant nodded immediately.

After Mu Jingchi fed me a sip of sugar water, he said to the servant, "Go and catch the ninth master." ”

The servant said yes and left in a hurry, and then Wang Zhizhi said in the back: "I'll go with you." Then he went out of the room.

After about two or three minutes, Yuan Chengjun walked up, and as soon as he walked to the door, he asked inside: "Qingye, are you better?" ”

Mu Jingchi took the towel handed over by the maid and wiped his hands, stood up from the side of the bed, greeted Yuan Chengjun, and said with a smile: "It's a lot better, I should have been scared yesterday." ”

Yuan Chengjun said to Mu Jingchi: "I'm here to ask Qingye about something. ”

Mu Jingchi said: "She just woke up, but the ninth master has something to ask, so she will ask first." ”

Yuan Chengjun nodded, and walked towards me, the maids quickly moved a chair next to my bed, and after Yuan Chengjun sat down, the maid brought me another cup of tea.

Mu Jingchi sat on the edge of my bed again and said, "What did you see that day, tell the Ninth Master truthfully, don't be afraid." ”

He soothed the lying.

Yuan Chengjun took a sip of tea and asked, "Qingye, could you see that person's face at that time?" ”

When Yuan Chengjun arrived, I remembered that Gu Huizhi's brother was an official under Yuan Chengjun, and it was his subordinates who died.

I nodded and said, "See." ”

Yuan Chengjun frowned and asked, "Do you know each other?" ”

I was silent for a while and said, "It's the dancing girl who assassinated Jin Chi on the bank of the Jinling River last time." ”

"What?!" Yuan Chengjun immediately burst out in shock, it is estimated that even Yuan Chengjun did not expect that it would be another time, another time for his subordinates to die at the hands of the dancing girl again.

Yuan Chengjun was so angry that he put down the teacup, got up and said, "It's Huo Changfan again!" ”

Mu Jingchi didn't move, but asked again: "Can you see clearly?" ”

I said, "I can see it clearly, although I have not seen her face, but she is still veiled, and I can recognize her eyes." ”

Yuan Chengjun stood there for a long time without speaking, and for a long time, he suddenly said to Mu Jingchi: "Jingchi, I have something to discuss with you. ”

Mu Jingchi nodded and said, "Ninth Master, study please." ”

After Mu Jing instructed the maids to take good care of me, he took Yuan Chengjun out of my room and went to the study.

As soon as they left, Wang Zhizhi was left there, and when she asked me if I wanted something to eat, I shook my head and said, "I'm a little sleepy." ”

Wang Zhizhi knew that I meant to drive people away, and she didn't stay long, so she made an excuse and said, "Then I'll go downstairs to see if I'm okay with the soup I stewed for you." ”

Then, she quickly left.

As soon as Wang Zhizhi left, Qing'er quickly closed the door, and I fell asleep a little sadly, but this sleep, it was a nightmare, and I don't know how long I slept, when I was awakened again, I was in Mu Jin's arms, and my head was pillowed on his chest.

He was flipping through a book in his hand, and when he saw that I was awake, he smiled and asked, "Awake?" ”

I looked up out the window and it was already night.

The incomparably warm inside the house, and the sound of the wind outside, unexpectedly set off the extraordinary tranquility inside the house.

Mu Jingchi saw that I didn't speak, so he didn't speak, but pulled the quilt for me and continued to flip through the book in his hand.

After grabbing the buttons on Mu Jingchi's clothes for a long time, I whispered, "Brother-in-law." ”

He snorted.

I said, "Do you think that dancing girl will know me?" ”

His hand pausing slightly, looked down at me and asked, "Why do you say this?" ”

I looked up at her and said, "She had a chance to kill me, but when she could see my face clearly, her knife suddenly stopped and pushed me away." ”

Mu Jingchi listened, his expression was still unshocked, and he said, "Didn't you say that it was because Gu Huizhi came in a hurry, and she didn't have time to do it?" ”

He turned another page.

I shook my head and said, "No, Gu Huizhi didn't see her at all at that time, and her knife was almost close to my throat, if she took the opportunity to give me a knife, and then escaped, there was plenty of time, but her knife stopped sharply a few centimeters of my neck, but it was too much." ”

When I said this, I looked up at him and asked, "Why do you say she sent out the knife and didn't kill me?" ”

Mu Jingchi closed the book in his hand, suddenly sighed, touched my head and said, "Maybe it's your delusion, in such an emergency situation at that time, for anyone, saving one's life is important, and killing people is not so important, isn't it?" ”

I said, "Really? Will that be the case? ”

With a light smile in his eyes, he said, "It's you who think too much." He picked me up, sat on his lap and said, "In this case, don't say it casually in the future, I don't know, I think you are conspiring with that dancing girl, do you know?" ”

I said, "I just think it's weird, nothing else." ”

He said, "The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional." ”
