Tired for a day and a night, Tang Carp just entered the house, and lay down on the couch regardless of the dirt on her body, counting the insomnia of the inn that night, she had barely closed her eyes for two consecutive days, and now she finally relaxed, and couldn't help but squint her eyes, when Shen Yanzhi and Xinglin came to find Tang Carp, she was already asleep, and she didn't even eat dinner, and her body still exuded bursts of mud mixed with the smell of sweat, which made people frown when they smelled it.

Xinglin has been with Tang Lili for half his life, this is the first time he has seen her so embarrassed, and he couldn't help but want to wake her up and wash and eat before continuing to sleep, but was stopped by Shen Yanzhi, Shen Yanzhi quietly pulled Xinglin out of the room, tiptoed the door shut, lowered his voice and said softly: "You go to rest, I will serve her." ”

I don't know why, since the last time Yan Xuan joked that there was an unclear relationship between Shen Yanzhi and Miss, Xinglin's mind always came to mind the scene of the last time in the carriage, his own lady pulled Shen Yanzhi to be coquettish.

Xinglin was a little uneasy, and secretly beat the drum in his heart.

How did he feel that this Shen Yanzhi was a little bad at Miss? This Shen Yanzhi can't be a coveted miss, right? This can't be done, he can't give this kid a chance! Thinking of this, Xinglin's eyes widened, and he hurriedly and decisively refused: "No! ”

"Shh Shen Yanzhi pressed Xinglin's mouth, his eyes signaled him to whisper not to wake up Tang Li, Xinglin didn't dare to speak anymore so he nodded obediently, stared at his round eyes, tore Shen Yanzhi's hand off, lowered his voice, and said cautiously: "Lonely men and widows, absolutely not!" ”

"But you're also a man, huh?" Shen Yanzhi let go of his hand and asked with a light smile.

Xinglin's face turned red, and he muttered dissatisfiedly: "I am me, you are you, am I the same as you?" I've been serving Miss since I was a child, and I'm the person she trusts the most, you're an outsider, you don't understand! ”

"And what do you want? Do you want to change her clothes? ”

Shen Yanzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, he was interested in hearing what Xinglin would say.

He knew that although Xinglin had served Tang Lili since he was a child, it was true that he only served her diet and sprinkling, and those private things of his daughter's family were served by the maids in the house in the past, although he knew that Xinglin would never do anything that exceeded the rules, but he still couldn't help but want to tease him, after all, no one could go in in the current situation.

Sure enough, as soon as Shen Yanzhi's words came out, Xinglin was choked, and he hesitated for a long time and didn't hold back half a complete sentence.

Seeing this, Shen Yanzhi continued to persuade: "Xinglin, don't you even believe me? I won't do anything to my sister, I just think it's so cold, and she will definitely catch the wind chill the next day if she sleeps like that for one night, so I'll go in and cover her with a quilt, okay? ”

Xinglin blinked, feeling that Shen Yanzhi seemed to have some truth in what he said, so he finally hesitated and relented, and said "um" in agreement.

Seeing that Xinglin agreed, Shen Yanzhi bypassed Xinglin and opened the door, and slowly walked in, while Xinglin was still standing outside and did not leave, as if he was going to monitor Shen Yanzhi's every move outside.

"Bang!"

"Huh?"

There was a strange sound behind him, Xinglin turned around in horror, stunned, he slammed his hand hard, the wooden door in front of him still didn't move, there was no sign of opening, Xinglin was unwilling, tried back and forth, but there was still no progress.

What's going on? This Shen Yanzhi actually locked the door from the inside?

He paced anxiously outside the door, but he didn't dare to make a noise, for fear of waking up Tang Li, and for fear of telling the truth, if this matter spreads, will Miss's reputation be gone? !

Xinglin didn't give up, he sat outside the door, trying to minimize the attention of others to himself, after all, it is not a good thing for a big man to sit in front of someone else's room, he watched around, while whispering Shen Yanzhi's name at the door, while scolding the quintessence from time to time, until half an hour later, Xinglin's tired mouth was dry, and he didn't hear the slightest movement in the room.

This is so strange, what is Shen Yanzhi doing? If he really did something unseemly, why didn't the young lady beat him? Miss Yi's kung fu shouldn't be able to beat him, right?

Xinglin was very confused at the moment, and he had been imagining various possibilities in his mind, and he didn't know how long it was, so he fell asleep against the door.

And Shen Yanzhi, who entered the house, didn't actually want to do anything, he just wanted to accompany Tang Li, he felt that when he got on the boat tomorrow, everything would be different and unpredictable, and it was uncertain whether the two of them would come back alive, so he also wanted to cherish the time he spent alone with Tang Li.

Since Shen Yanzhi learned the news of Tang Li's decision to go to sea, a dark cloud has been firmly enveloped in his heart, for seven years, he has always thought that they can live in Fuyun forever and accompany each other for a long time, so he didn't think about expressing his heart at all, he was afraid of scaring her, she was his most precious person, and he didn't want to lose her.

But now, if I don't open my mouth again, I'm afraid I will continue to regret it for the rest of my life.

And he feels that Tang Li may also have feelings for himself, or friendship, or family affection, in short, it's not what he thinks, but what if? He wanted to give it a try.

Shen Yanzhi came straight to the couch and saw that Tang Lili was already asleep, she looked very good when she was asleep, quiet like a kitten, her eyelashes were curved, her lips were slightly upturned, and her long eyelashes were like a small brush, leaving a few shadows on her fair and delicate face.

Shen Yanzhi felt like he had been poisoned, he had already been poisoned by Tang Carp, and he was getting deeper and deeper, and he couldn't extricate himself.

He was entangled, he was uneasy, should he trust his instincts, or should he try it? Even if Tang Carp was asleep now, Shen Yanzhi still couldn't move his feet crampedly. He stood there in a daze, little by little, until the lamp oil was thin and the light gradually became dim, and he still did not dare to wake her up.

Finally, Shen Yanzhi lowered his head in frustration, and a wry smile spread across his face.

He didn't dare to gamble, he didn't dare to lose.

He breathed slowly to calm himself down, returned to his usual indifferent appearance, slowly raised his head, walked to Tang Li, stretched out his arm and gently picked her up from the soft collapse, turned around and put her on the bed.

Just when Shen Yanzhi was about to gently pull up the quilt and cover Tang Li's body, Tang Li's brows were furrowed tightly, her hands unconsciously tore her collar, and her mouth kept babbling.

"It's uncomfortable, it's hot..."

She screamed hot as she tugged at her clothes. At this time, Shen Yanzhi realized that fine beads of sweat had oozed from Tang Li's torn neck.

But now that it's so cold, how can she feel hot? Shocked, Shen Yanzhi hurriedly reached out to Tang Li's forehead, feeling that her body temperature was normal before he breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that he was really too nervous just now, and he couldn't even tell that she was sweating.

His eyes fell on Tang Li's mud-covered shoes and clothes, he hesitated for a moment to put the quilt back in its original place, leaned over to take off Tang Li's shoes first, and then carefully lifted her upper body and took off her outer robe.

At this moment, Tang Li was still asleep and unconscious, because Shen Yanzhi's fiddling made her feel a little irritable, and she was still unhappy in her sleep.

After undressing Tang Li, Shen Yanzhi's already nervous forehead was covered with fine sweat, he pulled the quilt and covered Tang Li, and carefully tucked both sides before standing up.

After completing a series of actions, Shen Yanzhi looked at the sleeping Tang Carp in front of him, and he suddenly felt that maybe this would be good, even if there was no further step, at least he would not take a step back.

His gaze paused for a moment, then he retracted it, blew out the oil lamp that was about to burn out, turned around and left the room, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw the apricot grove sleeping by the door, his eyebrows still frowning nervously, and he didn't dare to relax at all.

In the early morning of the next day, the sky was just white, and the east was gradually white.

Tang Li felt that she slept very comfortably yesterday, as if someone had loosened her tight clothes for her in her sleep, and that person's movements were very gentle, making her feel very comfortable.

"Huh? Clothes?! ”

Tang Li noticed something unusual, opened his eyes suddenly, lifted the quilt on his body, looked at his snow-white underwear, and the dirty clothes on the screen, Tang Li realized that yesterday was not a dream, it was true.

"What's going on?"

Tang Li scratched his head depressedly, trying to recall the events of last night, but found that he had no impression of anything other than remembering that he was so sleepy that he fell asleep without even eating yesterday.

But the person in the dream was so real, even she could feel the person's fine breath spraying onto her neck, was this actually a dream? Could it be that Xinglin helped him take it off?

Tang Li felt as if his memory had been sealed by something, and he couldn't remember anything.

Now the only thing I can feel is my hungry grumbling stomach, and I can't figure out what is going on, so I give up thinking and get up to wash.

After washing, Tang Carp couldn't wait to go out of the house to forage for food, but who knew that he happened to meet the apricot forest who came to serve.

"Miss, did you sleep well last night?"

Xinglin happily rushed over to greet him, and without waiting for Tang Li's response, Xinglin crossed Tang Li, put his head into Tang Li's house, looked left and right, looked around, and saw that there was no one in the house who shouldn't exist, and then exhaled reassuringly.

"Miss is hungry, I've already ordered breakfast, and I'll send it in a while!"

Tang Li looked at Xinglin's strange movements, he didn't know what he was doing, and suddenly remembered his dream last night, so he asked, "Xinglin, you came to serve last night?" ”

"No... What's wrong? Is there anything out of the ordinary? Hearing this, the apricot forest, which had just relaxed, became nervous again.

"Ah, nothing... I may have slept in a daze. ”

Since it's not Xinglin, maybe it's just a dream, I'm really sleepy and fainted, I don't even remember when I take off my clothes, and I still have such a strange dream.

"Miss, are you really okay?" Xinglin raised his eyes, looked Tang Li up and down, and still asked uneasily.

"Oops, I'm fine." Tang Li ignored him, broke his eyes with his hand, and commanded: "Go and ask Xiao Er to bring breakfast to the private room, it will be more hearty, and call Shen Yanzhi and Chen Zhuangshi to the private room together, we still have some things to prepare before boarding the boat!" ”

Xinglin was stunned to respond, then turned around and ran out, and about an hour, Tang Li, Shen Yanzhi and Chen Zhuangshi gathered in the private room.
