Chapter 11: Shadow in Light

In the early morning of July 3, the sixteenth year of Emperor Jingwu, the people of the Lu Mansion opened the mansion and were stunned to find Zhang Yanyun squatting at the door under the stone lion and napping.

The subordinate hurriedly informed Lu Wenqing, Lu Wenqing was dressing, his face changed slightly, he frowned, and after thinking about it, he finally walked out slowly.

"Brother Zhang?" Lu Wenqing was slightly worried when he saw the messy and dusty clothes on Zhang Yanyun's body, but he thought of what happened yesterday, and his right hand, which wanted to pat him on the shoulder, was left in mid-air.

Zhang Yanyun woke up slowly, and after seeing the person who came, he hurriedly helped the stone lion to stand up, rubbed his eyes, and said very apologetically: "Brother Lu, I'm really embarrassed, if I hadn't been able to leave my luggage and books, I would never have the face to see you again." ”

Lu Wenqing heard the meaning of Zhang Yanyun's words and asked, "Brother Zhang, are you leaving?" The results of the final examination have not yet been announced. ”

Zhang Yanyun scratched his head: "Hmm...... The results can be found anywhere when the time comes, and I want to take advantage of this time to go out and have a look, not to mention...... I don't seem to have much reason to stay in this Dongjiang town. ”

Lu Wenqing's heart moved, and he wanted to tell Zhang Yanyun about the separation between him and Mu Qianqian yesterday, but when the words came to his mouth, he seemed to be blocked by something, and he couldn't swallow or spit it out, he stared at Zhang Yanyun and didn't say anything.

Zhang Yanyun looked at him: "Brother Lu, are you okay?"

Lu Wenqing's left hand behind his back clenched fiercely, the folding fan made a slight sound, he was a little weak, and bowed his head and said, "No...... It's okay. ”

"So, can I go and pack my bags now?"

Lu Wenqing came to his senses, and hurriedly turned around and instructed his subordinates: "Quick, go and help Brother Zhang pack his luggage." ”

After a pause, he instructed again: "In addition, go and get another fifty taels of silver for Brother Zhang to wrap around." ”

"No!" Zhang Yanyun stopped his subordinates, turned around and bowed deeply to Lu Wenqing, and then said, "Brother Lu doesn't dislike me, and he is willing to take me in, and he is already a gentleman, but after yesterday's gaffe, Brother Lu didn't take it to heart, and the little brother admired the broad-mindedness." Brother Lu's friendship with me is enough, the younger brother doesn't dare to bother Brother Lu anymore, he just wants to leave after taking the luggage, as for the silver taels, he never dares to accept them. ”

Lu Wenqing saw Zhang Yanyun's appearance, and when he heard these words, the shame in his chest became more and more intense, and he finally stepped forward to help Zhang Yanyun, bowed deeply and sighed: "Brother Zhang can be called broad-minded...... I really don't dare to hide it, after Brother Zhang left yesterday, Miss Qianqian and I have ...... It's been cut in two......"

Zhang Yanyun's heart trembled, the expression on his face was extremely stiff, and he took two steps back slightly, which was worthy of holding the stone lion.

Lu Wenqing sighed again and said, "Yesterday's incident, I found out what Miss Qianqian really liked in her heart...... It should be Brother Zhang. ”

Zhang Yanyun was like being struck by lightning, but he shook his head sharply on his face, and said bitterly: "Brother Lu...... It's a joke. ”

Lu Wenqing shook his head silently, and the morning light in the east was slightly revealed, reflecting two distracted teenagers and two indifferent stone lions.

......

......

"If Brother Zhang really wants to leave...... At least I should talk to Miss Qianqian. ”

The sun was rising, Zhang Yanyun was sitting at the door of the Li Ji Bakery, with his luggage in his hand, and the last words Lu Wenqing said before leaving echoed in his ears.

Do you want to talk to her?

In what capacity will I go to her again after yesterday's example?

What did you say after seeing her? Do you say that you want to leave? Or do you say that you are not going to Chang'an Academy?

Zhang Yanyun was absentmindedly mixing tofu brains, not caring at all about the boss's disdainful eyes.

It was not easy for him to make up his mind, but before leaving, Lu Wenqing told him, "The person Qianqian really likes may be you."

Don't be like this, okay?

Zhang Yanyun began to hope that Lu Wenqing's heart would be worse and he didn't tell him about it, so he could leave with Zhou Chuxue without any choice.

Now, even if she told Mu Qianqian, what would she be like if she knew that she was going to the adjudication office?

But he couldn't stay, and Zhou Chuxue was determined to take him to the adjudication office.

And seeing Mu Qianqian at this moment, Zhang Yanyun really didn't know how to face her, and he felt very embarrassed with all the words and actions he could think of.

The tofu brain became more and more broken, and the boss's eyes became more and more disdainful, and it was estimated that if it weren't for Zhang Yanyun who had already placed two copper plates on the corner of the table, he would have come over and reprimand.

After a long time, the left hand holding the bowl finally relaxed, and the tofu brain was mixed with soup, each piece of which was about the size of a sesame seed.

Zhang Yanyun took a deep breath and tugged at the corners of his mouth to try to make himself laugh.

He gulped down the soup.

So be it.

Bite the cake in a big bite.

So be it!

Instead of looking for her, leaving like this is the best way he can think of!

If, if there is a fate to say goodbye in the future, I hope that time has covered up the embarrassment of the present, and I hope that he and her can still be him and her.

As for now, so be it......

"Bang!"

Zhang Yanyun slammed the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and the boss was startled, and was stunned to see Zhang Yanyun standing up with the table propped up, with two tear stains on his cheeks.

The boss saw him slowly raise his right middle finger at him......

"Lao Tzu...... Gone!"

......

......

However, fate always plays tricks on people like this, everything forces him to go when he doesn't want to leave, and when he finally makes up his mind to leave, it seems that no one wants him to go.

As soon as Zhang Yanyun picked up his luggage and wanted to leave, a lukewarm taunt came from behind him: "Yo, isn't this the orphan who no one loves?"

Zhang Yanyun's hands tightened, and when he turned around, it turned out to be Huzi and the four teenagers, and it was the burly young man who spoke yesterday.

Huzi stood next to the four of them, obviously they all knew the results of yesterday, Huzi had no intention of speaking for Zhang Yanyun at the moment, he stood slightly on the side, looking at him indifferently.

Zhang Yanyun had just figured out the first "big event" in his life, and at this moment he was in an open mood, even if the big pillar spoke badly, he didn't take it to heart, glanced at the five people lightly, turned around and walked towards the city gate.

"Slow down......" The pillar stepped forward and locked Zhang Yanyun's shoulder, with great force, pinching his shoulder.

Zhang Yanyun frowned, shook off the palm of the pillar, turned around to look up at his swarthy face, and said, "What do you want to do in broad daylight?"

"What do you want to do? If you ruin the good things of our boss, do you want to pat your ass and leave?!"

"Leave your luggage obediently, and the brothers may even attack you. The other three slowly leaned over and surrounded Zhang Yanyun in the middle.

Huzi stood aside, frowning slightly, but did not speak.

Zhang Yanyun's face was very calm, he glanced at the four of them lightly, put down his luggage, stared at the pillar and said seriously: "If you beat me today, then every wound I suffered, one day, you will return it to me tenfold." ”

"Threaten me?!" the pillar sneered, kicked Zhang Yanyun over, rubbed his body up, and the fist whistled.

At this moment, I heard a sharp sound in the wind, and a silver light sank into the chaos and pierced into the ground!

"Buzz!"

That's a snow-white sword!!

The sword aura was so powerful that the four teenagers couldn't get close at all, and they were all bounced away.

Zhang Yanyun covered his abdomen, looked at the thin sword that was still trembling in front of him, and felt that the hilt of the sword seemed familiar.

He looked back in disbelief.

At that moment, the sun shone brightly, as if an angel was radiating holy light, and a woman descended from the sky.

She was covered in snow and her eyes were like knives.

Snow at the beginning of the week.

"Yanyun, should we go, do we have to waste time?" Zhou Chuxue's voice was as cold as snow, and it blew into everyone's ears like a cold wind.

"Oh, oh, oh......" Zhang Yanyun was stunned for a moment before reacting, except for "oh", he didn't know what to say at all, Zhou Chuxue's words made everyone look at him, he was an orphan, he was shy by nature and had never shown his head, although his grades were not bad, he had never been treated special by others because of this, and he was often despised behind his back, but at this moment he seemed to have become the chosen one. He had never felt like this kind of scenery, his heart was rumbling in his chest, and his blood was flowing at high speed, he quickly got up from the ground and picked up his luggage, and ran to Zhou Chuxue's side in small steps.

Zhou Chuxue's height was even taller than him at this time, and he became taller and taller in Zhang Yanyun's eyes.

"Whoosh"

The snow sword was put into the sheath, Zhou Chuxue turned around, her long hair was lightly brushed, and she looked at all directions.

Zhang Yanyun followed behind her, like a follower, but it was enough not to be ignored.

On the other side of the street, Mu Qianqian, who got up early to buy baked cakes, just appeared, she saw Zhang Yanyun's back in the distance, her heart moved slightly, and she just wanted to shout and saw the back of Zhou Chuxue next to Zhang Yanyun.

The first snow in the sun shines with a light that is too hard to look at.

At that moment, Mu Qianqian felt inferior for the first time, she stood still and couldn't open her mouth.

She just watched quietly, and the young man's back disappeared at the city gate, disappearing into the light and shadow.

His not tall back burned into a mark in the sun and engraved in Mu Qianqian's heart, turning into a scar that could not be improved.

In the end, she could only hold it slowly, and the fallen leaves in her window after the fireworks bloomed in her palm.
