A foreign country is always a foreign country, and the two of us and I were in front of the maid, and there was no trace of casualness in our words and deeds.

We just don't want them to think that we are not polite and cultured, although they are very polite and friendly.

After a story, Tian Lu completely opened up to us and said nothing. It seems that the image of the gentle woman we saw at the beginning has changed unconsciously.

became good at talking, and the smile on his face was more natural and made us feel warm, and suddenly, the faint sorrow in the other place disappeared without a trace.

Speaking of that child, I haven't seen her until now, so I'm curious.

As Tian Lu descended the spiral staircase, to the door, Tian Lu pointed to a big boy riding a horse in the open space outside, turned around and said with a smile:

"He's the kid you're looking for. 」

We couldn't help but open our eyes wide to see the boy's face on horseback.

It's a pity that the horse quickly left our sight with him on his back.

Tian Lu's gaze kept following, with a smile in his eyes, and a smile on the corner of his mouth: "I thought I would never see him again, and now he has not only appeared in front of me, but has grown so big. 」

Later, Xiaobai explained to me, and I found out. It turns out that not all babies stop growing immediately after they die.

There are very few who can continue to grow without any supplementation, and the boy in front of us is undoubtedly one of the few.

Seeing that Tian Lu was still, we didn't move and stood still.

"Your kid is awesome enough to be able to ride a horse at such a young age. Express your thoughts from the heart.

Tian Lu tilted his head slightly and quickly swept over Zou Zhou, and then his gaze returned to his son: "He taught himself, saying that he liked it at the first sight of the horse. By the way, do you know how to ride horses?"

Xie Bi'an smiled smugly and snapped his fingers: "Fan Wusu and I will not only be horses, but also rhinoceros, elephants, and camels. 」

Fan Wusu did not speak, silently agreeing with Xie Bi'an's words.

"I can't ride a horse, but I've ridden a tiger before. 」

"Oh?" Tian Lu gave a thumbs up, "I can't imagine that you, a little girl, have the courage to ride a tiger, it's really brave." 」

Yaksha stroked the bangs on his forehead and snorted disdainfully, "If it wasn't a last resort, I wouldn't have dared to go up. 」

Yaksha suddenly appeared, Tian Lu was shocked, and his face was shocked but with a little smile, which looked slightly strange.

Yaksha was humble and polite, and introduced himself in a few simple words, and the surprise disappeared from Tian Lu's face.

"So you're a friend, that's pretty obvious. Tian Lu smiled, and at this moment the boy on the horse stopped at the bottom of the steps and waved to the top. "Come down with me, there are other horses in the stable, if you like, you can try it." 」

I walked at the end, and as I saw the horse getting closer and closer to me, I began to feel uncomfortable.

When I was 10 years old, there was a horse farm near my grandfather and grandmother's house. When I had nothing to do, I deliberately wandered around the neighborhood to get a better look at the horses.

The owner is kind and enthusiastic, and when he sees that I like it, he takes me in to touch it. Who knows, even though it's a pony, everyone loses their temper at me.

The owner also joked with me: This is the first time this kind of thing has happened, little girl, you may be the nemesis of horses.

This was later fulfilled, and all the ponies I touched were said to have had an illness later, but luckily there was no danger.

Fan Wusu chose a black horse, rode it and galloped, and it didn't take long for him to disappear. Yaksha rode on a flower horse and went straight away.

However, Xie Bi'an led the white horse he chose and walked to Zou Zhou's side:

"What are you doing?"

"I'm not in a daze, I'm just quietly looking at your horse. With that, I quietly backed away.

Xie Bi'an didn't notice, touched the horse's head, and made a cooing sound in his mouth, wanting the horse to get close to Zou Zhou.

"Are you scared?" Xie Bi'an smiled narrowly.

"No, I don't like horseback riding, just look at it. I turned my head to avoid eye contact.

"Oh oh, that's it, okay then, you just watch. Xie Bi'an sat on the back of the horse and stretched out his hand: "It would be better to get on the horse and see." 」

Looking up at Xiaobai, the bright smile that showed eight white teeth was simply a foul.

For a moment, I was stunned.

I turned my back, thinking to myself whether to go up or not to go up?

"Zou Zhou, you go up and give it a try, maybe it's good to like horseback riding. 」

Oh, Tian Lu, how can I tell you, I think but I don't dare, I can't.

"It's okay, I'll just stand here like you and take a look, hahahaha. I don't even know what I'm happy about.

"I've already chosen a horse, I'll accompany my son when he comes, and you might as well try it on horseback with Xie Bi'an. Tian Lu thought that Zou Zhou was afraid, so she encouraged her vigorously, and finally pushed her on the horse.

Seeing Xie Bi'an wrapping his hands around Zou Zhou, holding the reins of the horse, the corners of half of his mouth on the side of his face were always raised.

I suddenly remembered that Louis had taught himself to ride a horse in the first place.

In my heart, a warm current suddenly poured into my heart, flowing to my whole body.

The time spent riding on horseback soon came to an end.

It was already dark, and there was still a glow outside the walls.

After Tian Lu separated from Zou Zhou and others, he went back to the room to tell his son the story, and when he saw that his son was asleep, he tiptoed out of the room.

Knock knock.

"It's you. 」

Tian Lu couldn't help but smile, and after entering the room, she closed the door and sat at the end of the bed with Zou Zhou's hand.

"It's not me, who do you think it is?"

I squeezed out a smile, "No one, hahaha. 」

Tian Lu said softly: "Zou Zhou, I have already seen that you and Xie Bi'an are in love, if you don't mind me continuing, I have something to say to you." 」

"No, I mind!" I pulled out my hand and walked over to a bookshelf, "You're mistaken, we're good friends, not what you think we are. 」

Tian Lu frowned slightly, hesitated for a few seconds, got up and walked behind Zou Zhou: "Since you don't want to say it, I won't say it. Excuse me. 」

"You don't have to apologize to me, you didn't do anything wrong. I laughed, wondering if I should hold her to show that I wasn't really angry, or that the question wasn't bothering me. I did as I thought, "Thank you for caring about me, it's not too early, you go to bed." 」

"I want to talk to you a little longer, okay?" Tian Lu put on an expectant face.

"yes, okay. We went back to bed.

"Please, tell the two adults, don't worry about seeing my parents when I get back. Also, when the time comes, I will never break my promise to let you take my children. 」

Just staring at that face, I had fully agreed to Tian Lu's request.

"Thank you so much. 」

"It's fine, as long as you don't regret it. 」

"Yes, I know. Thank you very much for showing up. 」

Tian Lu walked in the door step by step, and in less than a minute, she quickly left.

And I really wanted to stop her, but as for why, I didn't know very well in my own heart.

"Zou Zhou, your face is not very good, did you get injured while riding a horse in the evening?" Tian Lu reflexively sat back beside Zou Zhou as soon as he was in a hurry.

"Ugh...... No, I, I'm fine. 」

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, Uncle Bai, he ......."

Tian Lu saw it, but did not speak immediately, but gently put one hand on Zou Zhou's shoulder and smiled.

Laughter echoed through the room.

After thinking about what to say, Tian Lu opened the conversation:

"If I don't ask, you're afraid

It's impossible to say it yourself, and I'm just like you. Let me tell you one thing first, how could I tell Louis frankly when something like that happened, it was he who induced me to say it little by little. Thinking about it later, he was really an old fox, but now that I think about it, if it weren't for him, I would have been tormented to death by the countless ideas that came up with me. 」

Tian Lu didn't know where she took out a cigar from her skirt, the fire, and after lighting it, she looked straight ahead and smoked with a calm expression.

I wanted to say something, but I felt that she hadn't finished speaking, so I continued to listen.

"It's a wonderful thing to like someone. When you are a blank sheet of paper, it is all the colors in the world, and even if you later know that the black is painful for you, you will feel extremely happy in the color. If you have experienced emotional trauma and say that love is dispensable, your body and heart will never lie. 」

"And I belong to the latter, and it was Louis who gave me the heart to re-see love. With all his energy and time, he helped me heal, cared for me wholeheartedly, and loved me. 」

"And you belong to the former, and the way you are now makes me see myself when I was in love for the first time. 」

By the end of the story, there was already an inch left of the cigar.

The blue smoke fluttered freely in the air.

"I'm not a person who will reveal my scars to strangers to see, and you, I can't restrain myself from saying what is in my heart, so that I can be happy. Tian Lu extinguished the cigar and threw it into the lotus-shaped ashtray on the wooden table.

"So look at me now, relieved, fluttering, very comfortable. 」

Tian Lu was not wrong at all, although the face was smiling at first sight, it was gloomy and depressing.

I thought it was the feeling that this castle brings, but in fact, it was Tian Lu, and it was she who made the castle, which should have been bathed in sunshine, gray and dull.

It has become disconnected from the outside world and has lost all connection.

Even my sense of smell has faded, and I didn't even smell the slightest smell of the delicacies and black tea on the dinner table.

At this moment, the green smoke floating in the air had not completely dissipated, and I vaguely smelled a trace of smoke.

The dark orange curtains that tightly covered the windows made me feel the urge to tear them apart.
