Chapter 42: Companionship

Ruan Yuyi pushed his shoulders and stepped back.

She knew that she couldn't hide from such a question, but the earrings were damaged, and she couldn't go to the eldest princess in a daze, she was a powerless woman, she could fight for these royal relatives and nobles, and she could hide.

What's moreβ€”

She half-raised her eyes and looked at his clothes, not to mention that he had to call Zhaorong to call the imperial aunt and salute three points, I am afraid that he will not be able to be the master.

"The wound on the ear has not healed for a long time, so I have to wear a tea stalk to get better quickly. That pendant happened to be in the house, if Your Highness is happy to bring it with me, then I will bring it again in a few days. ”

Jiang Huaiyang stared at her for a long time, until her cheeks turned crimson, before he spoke, "Are you sure what you said is true?" Those pair of earrings, but I can buy you one. ”

I'm afraid she doesn't know that every time she says something against her will, her eyes wander, and he can see it at a glance. However, the pendant is a trivial matter, if it is really wanted, it is a big deal to ask the craftsman to play an extra pair.

He has always had a cold face, and if he knew something was broken, he didn't know what would happen. She was stunned in her heart, but her face was full of smiles, and she reached out to hook his neck, "If His Highness can't see it in a few days, the little girl will put herself on it." ”

Because she was preparing to go to bed, Ruan Yuyi had long black hair scattered at this time, and she did not apply powder. A few locks of her hair fell on the back of his hand, and when she moved, it tickled the back of his hand.

Jiang Huaiyang unconsciously raised his eyebrows slightly, noncommittal. He got up from the couch, got out of the bed, turned his back to her, and said, "You will sleep here tonight." ”

"Your Highness," she straightened up, questioning, "what about you?" ”

His back paused, "I'll go to the next room." With that, he crossed the threshold, and disappeared around the corner, and the last thing he skipped was a corner of the hem of his clothes.

She lowered her eyes, a little frustrated, she put down her body like this and leaned up, why didn't she see him move in the slightest. Could it be that she was so unable to get into his eyes that she would rather stay in a room with no quilts?

Outside the house, a few steps away, Jiang Huaiyang leaned against the wall, rubbed his eyebrows fiercely, exhaled a breath, and walked into the wing.

He thought that maybe she could relieve his symptoms, so he allowed her to stay, although he was not used to having an extra person lying around, and it was considered a cure. But according to her little movements, he still couldn't sleep tonight.

For a long time afterward, Ruan Yuyi lay on her side, looking at the moonlight falling through the crack in the door, closing her eyes and opening her eyes, but she didn't feel sleepy. Finally, after struggling, she lifted the futon and walked out of the room.

When he turned his head, he saw Wen Pheasant guarding the door next door.

He also saw her, reacted for a second, then smiled, and said in a breathy voice, "Miss Ruan." ”

She bowed her head slightly, and replied softly, "Why is Young Master Wen here?" I thought you had escorted the Assassin there. "Because he was here, the prince knew that the wing next door could be vacated.

"Oh, the little one can't stand the girl's son, the girl can just call me 'Wen Pheasant'," he lowered his voice and spoke in a much lower tone than usual, "It's not that there are so many guards, where can I go." Girl, how are your injuries? ”

She was dressed in the clothes of the prince, and her face was not too pale, and she looked like her injuries had been properly treated.

Ruan Yuyi pursed her lips and smiled casually, "Thanks to Your Highness's handling of it." By the way, His Highness, he has already slept? She looked into the half-open window, but it was pitch black.

Wen Pheasant replied, "Yes." Master, his headache has become more and more serious recently, and he has lost a lot of energy today, so he probably fell asleep. ”

Her gaze wandered back and forth between the closed door and his fingertips, her lips twitching, but she didn't know how to open her mouth, but the blush crept up her neck first.

Wen Pheasant saw it, let go of his body, and took the initiative to say, "Girl, go in, remember to be lighter." He pushed the door ajar.

Only then did she bow her head slightly, thank you, and lift her skirt into the room.

There was no candle flame, and it was inevitably a little dim, and she approached the bed by the faint light that came in through the door.

Jiang Huaiyang closed his eyes tightly, his brows frowned slightly, as if he was caught in a nightmare, and even the cold aura of the day was removed. She was slightly surprised in her heart, not knowing that he could still show such a demeanor.

She couldn't help but want to reach out and smooth his eyebrows. Fingertips almost touched his face, but they were worried about waking him up.

So he went around behind him, took off his coat, got on the bed, gently hugged him from behind, and put his hand on his abdomen, patting it again and again, silently comforting him. I don't know how long it took, but she couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep.

She couldn't see his face, so she didn't know that the moment she wrapped her arms around him, his frowning brow loosened.

The next day, Jiang Huaiyang woke up slowly, stretched his body, and touched a piece of softness. When I looked sideways, I realized that Ruan Yuyi was occupying the other half of the bed and sleeping soundly. The sideburns were scattered, blocking most of her face, and the small side that was faintly exposed was also amazing.

No wonder I slept soundly yesterday.

He was stunned, he didn't expect that she would come over after leaving her next door yesterday. Also, he snorted lightly, the purpose of this little lady's insistence on staying was not just because she felt inconvenient to go.

Jiang Huaiyang didn't make a sound, and Wen Pheasant waited and put on his robe. When he was tying the jade belt, he heard the person behind him hum half-asleep, and before his eyes were fully opened, he called him softly, "Your Highness?" How did you get up so early? ”

She barely glanced at the window, the paper was dark, and it was not yet bright outside. It's just that when she saw that the world was up, she was embarrassed to continue, so she rubbed her sleepy eyes and sat up.

Jiang Huaiyang's cold voice came from above her head, and he said to Wen Pheasant, "You go and inform her." ”

Wen Pheasant responded, and looked at him hesitantly several times, looking like he was inconvenient to say.

He frowned, and followed the pheasant out of the room.

By the time Mu Xiang came, he had been gone for a quarter of an hour. Ruan Yuyi pinched the broken sleeves, and had to take the dress from her hand and change it herself. The last time she was forced to pierce her ear, Mu Xiang was so worried, if she saw her injury, she didn't know how to chatter.

Mu Xiang saw her grasping the sleeve of her shirt with one hand, and her eyes were full of suspicion, "Miss, your hand-"

She leaned sideways and said vaguely, "I'm afraid this dress will be terrible." When the time comes, find a place to abandon it on the way, so as not to take it back with you and do it again. ”

But the more she covered it up, the more Mu Xiang saw that something was wrong. She pressed Ruan Yuyi's shoulder, and then she saw the white silk wrapped around her wrist, probably because she slept deeply last night, and inadvertently pressed it, and at this moment a little blood oozed out, staining a small round mark.

It was terrifying to look at, especially in contrast to the intact and smooth skin around her.

Mu Xiang gasped, "Miss, how did you get this!" ”
