Chapter 53: Reasons for Grief

When he heard Qin Yan's first half of the sentence, Xia Sheng finally couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief in his heart.

Although he clearly saw Ye Xiao'e's heart being pierced by the enemy's sword in the forgotten forest that day, but now that he thinks about it, the other party, as the eldest lady of the Weining Marquis Mansion, may have carried some life-saving treasures on her body, and she may have escaped a catastrophe.

Although I didn't know how Tam Dali fled back to Luoyang with her afterwards, at least today I learned that she was safe and sound, and Xia Sheng could be completely relieved.

But Qin Yan's last sentence made Xia Sheng's heart tremble.

Shui'er, missing for no reason.

It is not difficult to hear from Qin Yan's words that the Ye family did not make the truth about the battle of forgetting to return to Lin public, and it is even likely that the news was tightly sealed, so that even Shantang had no way to figure out what the so-called "change" was.

This also means that the word missing is completely equated with death.

Even if the news found out by Shantang is true, even if Shui'er is really missing, or even the Marquis of Weining's Mansion has not been able to determine her life and death, but under the siege and killing of several emperor-level powerhouses of the enemy, she is just a small spirit master, where can she survive?

As for whether Shui'er died in the forgotten forest, or died on the way back to Luoyang, it is unknown.

For a moment, Xia Sheng suddenly felt a little soft under his feet.

Even if he is a human being in the ninth life, he has seen too many life and death, and experienced too many joys and sorrows, but this kind of thing can never be used to.

This is the worst news Xia Sheng has heard since his father's disappearance.

It may be a little funny to say, when Shui'er kept chattering beside him, rude, and even deliberately sabotaged his love affair with Ye Xiao'e, Xia Sheng couldn't wait to tie her up and send her to the flower building, or simply throw her into the Giethoorn Lake to feed the fish.

But when he really learned that Shui Er had died, an indescribable sadness suddenly filled his body.

"You should be Mr. Xia, right? What are you looking at? Could it be that you can't wait to see my young lady?"

This was the first thing Shui Er said to Xia Sheng.

I don't know why, at this moment, Xia Sheng can still remember it so clearly, word for word.

"Is the flower building a place to enjoy the flowers? Then Xia Gongzi must go there often, right?"

Today, of course, Xia Sheng has already discovered that Shui'er at that time was definitely not a simple-minded person, but purely to trick him.

This also became her first ridicule of him.

"Okay! So you really plan to live with our young lady! Although you have a marriage contract, after all, today is just the first acquaintance, I didn't expect you to have such a shameless thought in your heart! What a ...... What a ...... Stinky rascal!"

This is the first time that Shui'er has framed him, and it is also the first time that he has scolded him for being a stinky hooligan.

Who would have thought that since then, this has become her consistent name for him.

"Who do you call the eldest sister, who do you call the eldest sister? You are the eldest sister, and your whole family is the eldest sister!"

The first time Shui Er was angry was because Xia Sheng called her "eldest sister", and this cautious girl ignored him for three whole days.

"I didn't expect you to be useless in other places, but you inherited Uncle Xia's good cooking skills!"

This was the first time Shui Er had expressed her appreciation for Xia Sheng, and although the derogatory connotation contained in this sentence was actually much larger, it was a rare affirmation of his cooking skills for her.

He knew that she was rude and willful, and he knew that she was actually a little gluttonous cat, and he also knew that she had countless ghost ideas hidden in her heart.

The first time he met her was outside the gates of Whitehorse, his first hug with her was on the shore of Sheephorn Lake, and the difference between him and her was in the Forgotten Forest.

But I never thought that it would be an eternal farewell.

He and she had only known each other for a few days, but it was like a lifelong friend, and it was only at this moment that Xia Sheng suddenly realized that he had unknowingly regarded her as a friend.

It's just that it's a little late.

It had been a while since Xia Sheng left outside Wanfu Tower, and he hadn't even explained to Qin Yan why he had left suddenly, because even he didn't know where he was going or what he was going to do.

Along the way, Xia Sheng's mood seemed a little depressed, deaf to the bustle on both sides of the street, and blind to the oncoming crowd.

He didn't know where his sadness came from, and why it was just for a little girl.

Obviously, Ye Xiao'e's safety should be the thing he cares about the most.

Now that Ye Xiao'e has been confirmed to be safe and sound, he should be happy.

But he wasn't happy at all.

He was really sad.

The next time he appears in front of Ye Xiao'e again, who will stand up and stop him and not allow him to take advantage of his own young lady?

That "stinky hooligan", maybe it's hard to hear in this life......

Thinking so in his heart, Xia Sheng couldn't help but raise his head and sighed slightly, but suddenly found that he didn't know when he came to the door of that familiar small courtyard.

They lived here a few days ago.

Xia Sheng was slightly stunned, then stepped forward and gently pushed open the door, but in just a few days, everything inside had not changed, but it was no longer human.

"I don't know if Xiao'e and Dali left anything behind, I went to Luoyang this time, and I just brought it back to them. ”

Xia Sheng didn't know if he was saying this to himself, or explaining it to anyone, in short, he thought so in his heart, and then walked confidently to the boudoir where the two girls once lived, and opened the closed door.

The house was very clean, although it was stained with some dust in the past few days, but at least it was much cleaner than where Xia Sheng lived.

There was a big bag on the table, thinking that it was some change of clothes, as well as silver coins and other things, Xia Sheng didn't open it, but picked it up and carried it behind his back, ready to return it to Ye Xiao'e when he went to Luoyang.

In the corner of the room lay a wooden box with a delicately made lock, but the key was inserted in it, after all, before they went out that day, how could they have thought that they would never come back?

Xia Sheng pulled out the key and put it in his arms, then locked the box, lifted it up easily, and finally scanned the room with his peripheral vision.

The next moment, his gaze suddenly froze.

Because he saw that at the head of her bed, a bamboo stick was inserted.

There seems to be a layer of sticky crystal attached to the bamboo skewers.

It was the first thing he bought her, a candy man in the shape of a rabbit, and it cost him a penny.
