17 The end of fate
"Why are you here again, aren't you afraid that I will call someone to arrest you?" Ling Dongwu asked in a decadent voice.
Yi Zhikuo was stunned by Ling Dongwu's unexpected words and deeds, he originally thought that Ling Dongwu would either resist him with her teeth and claws, or scold and mock herself, but he didn't expect that she had never been meek to him - that kind of desperate and sad meekness.
"Xiao Wu, you, what's wrong with you, is someone bullying you?" Yi Zhikuo glared at the leopard's eyes, "You say, who bullied you, Lao Tzu will go and avenge you!" ”
Ling Dongwu actually smiled at him rarely, but this smile made people want to cry when she looked at it, and she said miserably: "No one bullied me, it's me who doesn't know how thick the sky is!" ”
Yi Zhikuo is a reckless man, before he met Ling Dongwu, he didn't even know what it was like to like it, at this time, he saw Ling Dongwu so heartbroken, but he was at a loss, and he couldn't think of anything after thinking about it for a long time, and said: "Xiao Wu, why don't you go with me, I promise never to hurt you again, and never make you sad again!" I can do whatever you want, as long as you follow me! ”
Ling Dongwu listened to his words, and thought for a while, if Mu Zicheng really wants to marry Xia Mingde, he really has no place to be nostalgic in Nanzhao Kingdom, but he can't leave now, if he runs away in a negative mood like the last two times, even if Mu Zicheng doesn't like her, with the relationship between the two for so many years, he will definitely not ignore her, she doesn't want Mu Zicheng to be hurt because of herself.
Wait, wait for Mu Zicheng and Xia Mingde to really become relatives and live a happy life that belongs to him, and he no longer has time to take care of himself, he is looking for a chance to leave!
"Yi Zhikuo, if one day I am really at the end of my rope and there is no place for me in this world, I will go to you!" Ling Dong Wuqiang said with a smile, Nanzhao can't stay by himself, Beimo can't go by himself, and the place where he once tried to escape will be the only place for him in this world! How sad!
"Really, Xiao Wu, what day are you talking about the end of the road?" Yi Zhikuo also took it seriously.
Ling Dongwu was amused by Yi Zhikuo's words, how did she know when her desperation was, but her mood was slightly better, "I don't know what day it is, you go back and wait!" ”
Yi Zhikuo only heard it at this time, Ling Dongwu was just perfunctory to him, hurriedly shook his head, and said, "I won't go back, unless you come with me now." ”
Although Ling Dongwu is now depressed, he still knows that he can't stay with Yi Zhikuo, he is still a dangerous person, and suddenly smiled at Yi Zhikuo, Yi Zhikuo immediately fell into a fog, Ling Dongwu didn't ask Xiao Er to settle accounts, and left the tea shed while Yi Zhikuo was confused.
Yi Zhikuo saw that Ling Dongwu left again after confusing himself, he was angry and worried, but he didn't dare to make trouble here, so he had to let her go.
On the way back to the garrison mansion, Ling Dongwu sang "Love is Love" over and over again, "...... Don't make yourself like a joke, you can die of your heart, you can all go to zero, act as if nothing happened, you are you, he is him, why say cruel words, why struggle, don't calculate the price, love is love......"
Before entering the garrison mansion, Ling Dongwu patted his face vigorously with his hand, smiled like a drill, and said to himself: "You fucking be strong, whoever leaves the earth will have to turn the same way!" ”
"Dong'er, where have you been? Who are you talking to? Mu Zicheng walked towards her from the garrison mansion.
"Ah, haha, I went around the street, and I was talking to someone who asked for food!" Ling Dongwu snorted at Mu Zicheng who suddenly appeared in front of her, and walked towards the courtyard with a smile beside Mu Zicheng all the time.
Mu Zicheng looked at Ling Dongwu's back blankly, and said that she and the two of them who met not long ago seemed to be like two people, but they behaved very naturally. He could vaguely think of what kind of ideas she had and what kind of determination she had just made in the past period of time, her eyes were more resolute and decisive, and less of the original admiration and love for him.
These days, he is deliberately avoiding Ling Dongwu, he is afraid that he will not be able to control the jealousy in his heart, and he is afraid that as long as he is with Ling Dongwu, he will ask about her and Zhou Ze with one mouth, but when he found out that Ling Dongwu looked like him, he didn't want to tell him about her and Zhou Ze at all.
He used some official duties to keep himself busy, but today he walked side by side with Xia Mingde on the verandah, and was met by Ling Dongwu, and in his intuition, Mu Zicheng knew that it was not good, remembering that Ling Dongwu had a petty relationship with him because of Xia Mingde in the past, and he was now so alienated from her and walked with Xia Mingde, it was easy for her to misunderstand. Thinking of this, Mu Zicheng's body couldn't help but shake slightly, as if his legs were unstable. He is a person who has practiced martial arts, and he can shake to this point, and he really didn't think about the violent reaction that Ling Dongwu might have.
Mu Zicheng is so smart, of course he knows that Xia Mingde likes him, but he knows his heart more clearly, and no one can pretend to be except Ling Dongwu, so since Xia Mingde came to Huaiyang City, he has greeted him politely and reasonably, and through occasional conversations, he found that Xia Mingde is not the same as the woman who was raised in the deep boudoir compound, he is very knowledgeable and has an extraordinary conversation, so after a few times, the two of them get along quite happily.
But from Ling Dongwu's footsteps passing by himself, Mu Zicheng knew that Ling Dongwu was probably angry, he sent Xia Mingde back to the room, and was about to say goodbye to find Ling Dongwu, when Xia Wenxuan came over and pulled him to talk for a while.
Mu Zicheng dealt absentmindedly for a while, found an excuse to get up and tell her, hurriedly went to Ling Dongwu's room to find her, and saw that there was no one in the house, his heart couldn't help sinking, thinking of Ling Dongwu's previous two negative qi runaways, and suddenly felt cold hands and feet, and his face was bloodless.
He hurriedly opened the wardrobe, and saw that the few sets of clothes that Ling Dongwu usually wore were still there, so his heart was slightly lowered. He walked out of Ling Dongwu's room to look for Ling Dongwu everywhere, and she was not seen in the entire garrison mansion, where did he know from the porter that Ling Dongwu had gone out.
Mu Zicheng was just about to go out to look for Ling Dongwu, but she didn't expect her to come back, she didn't ignore him with a tight little face as expected, nor did she sneer at him, but smiled at him all over her face, but the smile looked distant and unfamiliar, faintly alienated.
Ling Dongwu looked as usual at the dinner party that day, speaking appropriately, smirking appropriately, and glancing at Mu Zicheng and Xia Wenxuan appropriately, but Mu Zicheng just felt that something was wrong, Ling Dongwu's eyes were as bright as jewels and extremely clear; Her smile was also very sweet, simple and transparent like a crystal, but there was something in her eyes, he was suddenly scared, more afraid than when he heard that Ling Dongwu and Zhou Ze had an ambiguous relationship, he felt that something had quietly changed in this day, he stared at Ling Dongwu occasionally, trying to find clues from her occasional flashing look.
A crescent moon hung in the air, so lonely, Ling Dongwu lay on the bed, tiredly took off his disguise, closed his eyes slightly, and two crystal tears rolled down. That's all she can do, Brother Zicheng, if you go to a high place, I won't prevent you from marrying the princess of Nanzhao, I will slowly alienate you, stay away from you, and then forget you!
At this time, she suddenly heard someone knocking lightly on the door outside the door, and after listening to the short three consecutive times, she knew that it was Mu Zicheng. Sure enough, Mu Zicheng's voice sounded outside: "Dong'er, have you slept!" ”
Ling Dongwu gritted his teeth to control his impulse to rush over and open the door, and lay there silently, "Dong'er, it's me, have you fallen asleep?" ”
Ling Dongwu knew that she couldn't keep silent, Mu Zicheng knew that she had practiced martial arts, she wouldn't sleep so deeply, and she had to do enough to act, because she had just cried, her voice was as lazy as if she had just woken up, "Ah, Brother Zicheng, I'm asleep, there's something to talk about tomorrow!" ”
"Well, then!" Through the door, Ling Dongwu could also hear the disappointment and unwillingness in Mu Zicheng's voice, she grabbed the soft satin quilt tightly with her hand, and felt that her distressed palms were sweating.
got up early the next day, and before Mu Zicheng came to find him, Ling Dongwu took Lin Jin and the others to visit Huaiyang City, from morning to evening, and finally came back after eating in the restaurant outside. Originally, Ling Dongwu wanted to drink some wine, but she knew that she was in a really bad mood now, and she was afraid that she would cry as soon as she drank, so she forcibly endured her frustration and returned to the garrison mansion.
Mu Zicheng didn't see Ling Dongwu's figure all day, and when she heard the people below say that she and Lin Jin and the others went out, her heart relaxed a little, no matter what, with Lin Jin and the others by her side, she was still safe.
Finally looking forward to the stars and the moon to bring Ling Dongwu back, he didn't want to follow Ling Dongwu back to the room directly in front of everyone, endured it for a while, and finally found an excuse to get out, walked to the door of Ling Dongwu's room, saw two little girls standing outside the door, and told him that Ling Dongwu was taking a bath.
Mu Zicheng had no choice but to turn back, pacing back and forth in the garden restlessly, about Ling Dongwu finished taking a bath, and was looking for her, the little girl standing outside the door had not left, and told him that Ling Dongwu was too tired to go out to play, so he fell asleep first.
That's it, Ling Dongwu would always meet Mu Zicheng in public, and then laugh and talk with him casually, but in no one's place, Mu Zicheng couldn't even see her shadow.
Mu Zicheng was completely aware that Ling Dongwu was deliberately avoiding him, if she just saw him from a distance in the corridor, she would definitely disappear as soon as she turned a corner, and he would never have to think that she would take a step towards him.
His heart was stinging and angry, what was it that made them so estranged when they were once talking about marriage and were so close! It's hard to say that she really likes Zhou Ze!
Ling Dongwu and Mu Zicheng had their own hearts, and they were more and more polite and estranged day by day, and the two met as politely as the most ordinary staff, as if their previous fate had come to an end overnight.
