I don't know how long it took, but seeing that Situ Jiluo hadn't come down yet, Zi Ling stood up from the sofa a little unseated. Looking at the clock by the wall, she couldn't help frowning when she found that half an hour had passed. Obviously asked her to wait for him, why did she delay going downstairs?

For such a long time, I'm afraid I've changed ten sets of clothes, right?

Clearly, he was stalling for time. But does she want to keep waiting?

Actually, it's not that she doesn't have feelings, and it's not that she doesn't know that Situ Jiluo wants to keep her, it's just... She couldn't accept it for the time being. Yes, she can't deny that after last night, the relationship between the two has changed subtly, but this does not mean that she accepts him.

She's been hurt before, so she's afraid the same thing will happen again.

She was afraid, she was afraid, so she flinched, unwilling to let herself fall again.

The more I thought about it, the more panicked I became, not knowing how to face him, and Zi Ling finally decided not to wait for him. Pick up your bag, turn around and get ready to leave. But when she walked to the door, she ran into Sister-in-law Lin who had just come out of the kitchen.

"Young grandma, where are you going?"

"It's okay, Sister-in-law Lin, I'll go first."

Originally, she wanted to leave quietly, but she didn't expect to be caught, she was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said lightly to Sister-in-law Lin. And Sister-in-law Lin was obviously stunned when she heard that she was leaving.

"You... Don't you wait for the young master? ”

Although I didn't know what was going on with them, but seeing that the young grandmother was leaving, but the young master was nowhere to be seen, Sister-in-law Lin couldn't help but ask. The young master was something he had seen since he was a child, and she knew that it was impossible for him to let the young grandmother leave by himself no matter what he was doing now.

"That's... He's been up for too long, so I'd better go back by myself. ”

didn't want to say that he was waiting for him, so Zi Ling paused before finishing his next words. Zixuan Pavilion had too many memories, and she was afraid that she would be reluctant to leave if she continued to stay, so she chose to leave now.

"Young Grandma!"

Seeing that after Zi Ling finished speaking, she walked past herself and walked towards the gate, and Sister-in-law Lin called her to stop. I have to say that when I heard the young grandmother say that the young master had been upstairs for a long time, her heart couldn't help but rise.

Seeing Sister-in-law Lin hurriedly come to her again, although she didn't say anything, Zi Ling could faintly feel her worry. So, she turned to face Sister-in-law Lin and asked with concern.

"What's wrong, Sister-in-law Lin?"

"Alas, you don't know, young master he..."

Sister-in-law Lin didn't want to say it, because the young master had an explanation, and this matter had to be kept secret. But now, on the one hand, I was worried about his condition, and on the other hand, my grandmother asked, so she had to explain honestly.

"The young master didn't know what was going on for a while, and every time he came home, he locked himself in his room, and he didn't move for several hours. It was the servant who went up to see it and found out that he had fainted......"

Speaking of her, a young master who is not worry-free, Sister-in-law Lin sighed for no reason. It's just that she hadn't finished the rest of the sentence yet, only to see Zi Ling crawl upstairs quickly with worry without saying a word......

opened the bedroom door, took a look inside the room, and found that there was no figure of Situ Jiluo, so Zi Ling was about to go to the study to find it. But just as she was about to close the door, she heard a sound from inside, as if something had fallen to the ground.

Pushing the door open again, Zi Ling walked in, walking in the direction of the voice just now. From a distance, she saw that the door of the dressing room was slightly open, and there was a faint light, and she was uneasy.

Slowly approaching, she soon saw a bare and strong back appear in front of her. Although the two have had countless intimate relationships, seeing such a picture still makes her blush.

So, she began to step back, ready to exit the room. But at this moment, Situ Jiluo in the locker room suddenly let out a low roar of pain.

Approaching again, Zi Ling realized that Situ Jiluo's back seemed to be a little wrong. The hunched and trembling look seemed to be painful.

"You... Okay? ”

Walking into the locker room, Zi Ling immediately stepped forward to help Situ Jiluo and asked with a worried face. In her impression, Situ Jiluo has always been in good spirits, and this is the first time she has seen him so embarrassed. So, for a moment, she was a little frightened.

When a pair of somewhat cold hands suddenly wrapped around his waist, Situ Jiluo was startled. But soon, he knew who it was. There is no need to turn your head at all, just this kind of touch is still close, who else is there besides Zi Ling.

Even though he knew that it was her, he was still a little surprised by her actions. It's just that he just paused, and quickly reacted. After brushing the hand around his waist away, he took a step back, then coughed lightly as if to hide his embarrassment, and said as if nothing had happened.

"I'm fine."

The simple three words, although they want to show that they are fine, but looking at his face, it is obviously not the case. His face was pale, his brow was tightly furrowed, and he looked very painful at all.

At this moment, Zi Ling didn't care whether Situ Jiluo had just pushed her away, she took another step forward, her hands wrapped around his waist, and she opened her mouth full of worry.

"How can you be okay like this?"

When she saw his uncomfortable face, I have to say that she was frightened. But after that, it was full of worry and unease.

"I... It's really fine. ”

Biting his lower lip tightly, after finally squeezing out these words recklessly, he began to move again to push Zi Ling away. But her hands were like superglue, and they were tightly wrapped around his waist, and he was uncomfortable now, so he couldn't push her away at all.

Knowing that he couldn't push Zi Ling away, Situ Jiluo finally had to give up, still holding his waist with her hands. The hand gently touched the head buried in front of his chest, Situ Jiluo gently stroked her hair, and gently called her name.

"Purple Spirit ......"

It seems that with her by her side, all the pain and discomfort in her body disappeared in an instant. It's a good feeling, it makes him feel relaxed unconsciously, but... He knew it wasn't real.

He wanted Zi Ling to return to him, but he didn't want her to be with her because of his physical condition. What he wanted was never pity or pity.

So just now when he saw Zi Ling appear in the locker room, he was obviously startled and a little caught off guard. Because he didn't want her to see how uncomfortable he was, and he didn't want her to know about him.

"Girl......

The more I thought about it, the more bottomless my heart became, and the more my body trembled, Situ Jiluo finally stopped refusing her, hugged her into his arms hard, and hugged her tightly with both arms.

"Situ Jiluo, you ......"

When Situ Jiluo called her name just now, she heard it, but she didn't hear her name clearly. Actually, it's not so much that she didn't hear clearly, but that she wasn't sure.

Isn't it a coincidence that the title "Niu'er" is not the first time he has called her like this?

I finally mustered up the courage to figure out the doubts in my heart, but how did I know that I had just opened my mouth, and before I could ask what I wanted to ask, I felt all the weight of Situ Jiluo pour on my body.

"Situ Jiluo!"

Holding the man who fell on top of him tightly, Zi Ling moved away with some difficulty. After finally getting him out of the locker room with great difficulty, Zi Ling led him to the bed side of the bedroom.

Because he had exhausted all his strength, he could no longer bear Situ Jiluo's weight, so Zi Ling had no choice but to let him fall to the big bed.

However, at the moment when Zi Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly a big palm took her hand and pulled her over. Because she didn't pay attention, she almost fell down on the big bed.

By the time she could react, she was already lying on the big bed. It was too late when she wanted to roll over and get out of bed, because Situ Jiluo had already turned over and pressed her under him.

"You! You lied to me?! ”

Gritting his teeth and glaring fiercely at the man who was pressing him, Zi Ling's tone of voice was obviously unhappy and angry. How can you not be angry? She just thought that this man had fainted, and she was almost scared to death, but now that she knew that he was just pretending to lie to herself, how could she behave calmly?

"Thank you, thank you."

As if she was about to go berserk without wiping Zi Ling, Situ Jiluo stared at her watery eyes and said "thank you" twice from the bottom of his heart. Then, with Zi Ling's eyes widening, he lowered his head and gently kissed her on the cheek.

Zi Ling stared at Situ Jiluo without blinking, seeing his sincere look, she was stunned again. Thank you? Why did this man suddenly say thank you to her?

Seeing the doubts in Zi Ling's eyes, it was obvious that he was very puzzled by his sudden thanks, and after Situ Jiluo took a deep breath, he said lightly.

"Thank you for worrying about me. Growing up, you were the first person who genuinely cared about me. ”

When he said this, Situ Jiluo's eyes instantly became gloomy, and his face was full of loss and faint sadness. After sighing, he looked away as if he was afraid that Zi Ling would see through his thoughts.

"Luo ......"

Hearing Zi Ling call him like this, Situ Jiluo, who had just looked away, suddenly turned his head to look at her again. This is the first time she didn't call him by name, she didn't call him by his first name, she didn't call him by his first name, but affectionately called him "Luo". He was originally sad because he thought of what happened when he was a child, but his heart instantly became warm.
