Chapter 83: I Like You

"Sister Xiaoya, are you okay?" Ye August thought that her body had not recovered yet, and anxiously ran to her to support her.

"No, I'm fine! Since the Soul Stealer has come to me, he may also go to Officer Xing! I can't leave him alone! In August, I'll trouble you to go to the Wind Lotus Club with the boss in a while! ”

Mo Xiaoya said these words with an anxious face, and disappeared out of thin air in front of Ye August.

"Sister Xiaoya!" Ye August shouted into the air, and could only shake his head helplessly.

Seeing that it was eleven o'clock, Ye August did not continue to stay at Mo Xiaoya's house, and returned home to change his clothes and wait for Ling Heng.

It's just that she changed her clothes too quickly, and there was still some time before half past eleven when everything was ready.

Ye August went out first and came to the empty corridor.

"Evil obstacles, I can't imagine that you will appear after hiding for a hundred years." Ye August said, looking down at the relics on his wrist, and hooked the corners of his mouth, "I didn't expect this thing to come in handy." ”

Ye August's eyes suddenly fell on the door of Mo Xiaoya's house, and she walked to the door of Mo Xiaoya's house again, and drew a few times on the door with her hand as if she was scribbling graffiti.

"Okay, there will never be any more evil obstacles that dare to go in."

"What are you doing here?"

Ling Heng walked out of the elevator at this time and glanced at Ye August with some disgust.

"Boss, you're here so early." Ye August unnaturally lowered his head to look at his watch, hiding the embarrassment on his face.

Ling Heng ignored her, and was about to knock on the door of Mo Xiaoya's house, Ye August immediately said, "Sister Xiaoya is not at home. ”

"What?" Ling Heng's hand stopped in mid-air, questioning Ye August's words.

Ye August timidly explained: "She is really not at home, she asked me to go to the Wind Lotus Club with you instead of her." ”

"Where did she go?" Ling Heng furrowed his eyebrows in displeasure.

Ye August pursed her lips and said truthfully: "She seems to have gone to find Officer Xing." ”

"What is she going to do with Xing Jiang?" Ling Heng didn't understand Mo Xiaoya's behavior.

"Sister Xiao Ya said that the soul stealer came just now and almost stole her remaining soul, and she was worried that the soul thief would go to Officer Xing, so she went to the police station."

Ye August spoke very slowly, carefully observing Ling Heng's reaction.

"Soul stealers? She's here? Ling Heng clenched his fists in annoyance, almost turning his iceberg-like face into a volcano.

Seeing the angry look on Ling Heng's face, Ye August said cautiously, "That...... Boss, let me go with you tonight instead of Sister Xiaoya, I won't hold you back! ”

Ling Heng glanced at her coldly, "As long as you don't cry when the time comes, it's fine." ”

Ye August was used to being despised by Ling Heng, so he secretly smiled bitterly, followed closely behind him, and happily made his little tail.

"Boss, are those stone sculptures that come to life monsters or our hallucinations?"

Although Ye August had lingering palpitations about that scene, he couldn't help but be curious.

Ling Heng said calmly as usual: "Those things are 'charms'. To be able to summon so many 'charms', it takes a lot of deep cultivation, but I don't think it's the boss lady who has been cut into three to summon the 'charm', she doesn't have that ability. ”

"You mean to say that the owner of the Wind Lotus Club has someone else?" Ye August was frightened by his own speculation.

"I'm not sure. However, this wind lotus club must not be as simple as it seems, and this case is more complicated than it was a hundred years ago. ”

Ling Heng's expression was very solemn, and his already bottomless eyes showed a richer gloom.

Ye August clutched the seat belt tightly, not daring to imagine what kind of demons and monsters he could encounter when he went to the Wind Lotus Club in the middle of the night.

In order to distract himself, Ye August boldly asked, "Boss, what happened a hundred years ago?" ”

"A case that happened a hundred years ago is very similar to what it is now...... Ling Heng was in a calm mood and wanted to talk about the events of a hundred years ago, and suddenly saw the red rope on Ye August's wrist with his spare eyes, as well as the things on the red rope.

"What's on your wrist? Why haven't I seen you wear it before? Ling Heng asked seemingly casually.

"Oh, this is an ancestral relic of my family. The previous rope broke, and I only replaced it with a new one today. After Ye August finished speaking, he deliberately put his wrist in front of Ling Heng.

"This is a relic?"

It's okay not to listen to Ye August's words, after listening to her explanation, a complicated look immediately appeared on Ling Heng's face.

"yes, that's what my family says. Could it be that this ancestral heirloom of mine is a fake? Ye August withdrew his wrist and began to carefully look at the white slightly round thing on his wrist that was not as big as a fingernail.

Ling Heng shook his head, "I can't tell the truth of the relics. Since it's something you've passed down from your ancestors, it must be true. I just didn't expect you to carry something so precious with you. ”

"Actually, I never thought about the authenticity of this thing, I just regarded it as a precious gift." Ye August gently stroked his wrist, quietly clasped the relics in the palm of his hand, and a layer of colorful streamers quickly flashed on the relics and disappeared in an instant.

"Are you really going to be my assistant all the time?" Ling Heng came up with such a sentence for some reason.

"Boss, why do you ask?" Ye August looked at him timidly, for fear that Ling Heng would change his face at any time and drive her away.

"I'm just asking. Truth be told, you can get a better job on your terms. My job is not only hard, but also life-threatening, and the pay is low, are you really willing to do such a job with no future? Especially with a cold-blooded boss who is not close to people. ”

A self-deprecating sneer appeared on Ling Heng's lips, and there seemed to be a faint bitterness on his iceberg-like face.

"I just want to do my job well now, I don't think too much about it." What Ye August said was very pertinent, he did not deliberately greet him, nor did he depreciate himself.

Ling Heng glanced at her, and there was a rare look of appreciation in his eyes.

But somewhere in Ling Heng's heart, there was an indescribable feeling, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on the relics on Ye Xiayue's wrist.

It seemed that the more he came into contact with this seemingly weak little girl, the more he couldn't see through her, and Ling Heng even felt that this Ye August sitting next to him was already different from Ye August who appeared in front of him for the first time.

But he couldn't explain what the difference was.

"Did you ever have a boyfriend when you were in school?" Ling Heng asked in a relaxed tone as much as he could, and gave Ye August a mysterious smile.

"I've never had a boyfriend." Ye August blushed suddenly, and his shy appearance was pitiful.

Ling Heng chuckled, "Your conditions are not bad, isn't there anyone chasing you?" Or are you looking too high? ”

"That...... I'm an introvert and I'm not very good at dealing with this kind of relationship, so ......" Ye August said this, pursed his lips tightly, and didn't say any more.

Ling Heng suddenly felt a little funny.

He was not laughing at Ye August, but laughing at himself.

For a hundred years, he has always loved the woman who is more difficult to capture than the stars.

The woman's stunning beauty and coldness entangled Ling Heng's heart like a vine, and for him, the warmth of that night was not forgotten with the passage of time, but appeared more and more clearly in his dreams every night.

In the past hundred years, countless celebrities and ladies or beautiful girls have fallen in love with Ling Heng and confessed their madness.

But he never let a woman get close to him, let alone touch a woman.

Even Mo Xiaoya, who has followed him for fifty years, is just a relationship between superiors and subordinates with him, and has never had any deviant behavior, and the reason why he can keep Mo Xiaoya by his side for so long is also because Mo Xiaoya has never had deviant thoughts about him.

They all love the "White Moonlight" in their hearts, but Mo Xiaoya is a little wrong now, Ling Heng has already noticed it during this time.

Sensing that something was wrong with Mo Xiaoya, Ling Heng realized that something was wrong with him.

Ye August is obviously the opposite type of his "White Moonlight", but why does he have an unusually patient attitude towards Ye August who is so innocent and shy, he can't help but mind having physical contact with her, and he is especially worried about her safety, but sometimes he obviously wants to care about Ye August, but the words he says are still as cold and sharp as a knife.

Ling Heng really couldn't figure this out.

"It's rare to see an introverted and shy girl like you now, and I don't understand how your personality can be interested in solving crimes. I don't mean anything else, if you can't stand being my assistant one day, you can always tell me......"

Ling Heng said in a rare gentle tone, even his eyes were much gentler than usual.

"I won't leave you!"

Ye August suddenly raised his voice, expressing his inner thoughts extremely resolutely, and his bright and clear eyes shone in the night.

Ling Heng slammed on the brakes and looked at Ye August suspiciously.

"You don't have to be so excited, I didn't mean that." Ling Heng patiently explained, not understanding why his words would cause Ye August to have such a big mood swing.

"I ......"

Ye August was speechless, staring straight at Ling Heng, her nails clenching at her palms, and the sound of a strong heartbeat kept ringing in her ears.

"Don't get excited, I'm not trying to dismiss you......"

Ling Heng was frightened by Ye August's appearance, and was afraid that she would cry pitifully in the next second.

"I'm not going to go, because I like you!"

Ye August used all his courage and finally said this sentence that had been suppressed for a long time.

Ling Heng was stunned.

Ye August lowered his head at the same time, eager to burrow into the cracks in the ground.

Both of them were silent, and the air in the car also froze in an instant, which was breathless.

The strong heartbeat in Ye August's ears gradually disappeared, and she left this world at this moment, unable to hear or see.

"I'm so annoying, what's there to like?"

Suddenly, Ling Heng's cold voice suddenly sounded clearly in Ye Xiayue's ears, and every word appeared clearly in her mind.

Ye August raised his head, and his eyes were filled with layers of water vapor, hazy as if the morning light was in the fog.

"I've liked you for a long time, and from the moment I heard about you, I couldn't help but like you."

Ye August said reverently like a pilgrimage, and his soft voice was full of tenacious strength.
