Yu Wenye looked at her quietly, although the light was dim, but for some reason, his eyes seemed to be a little brighter than usual.

"And what do you mean?"

"I-"

Shang Ruyi's face was about to burn, and he didn't know how to respond, when there was a very soft knock on the door, and then, he heard Shen Wuzheng say softly: "Ruyi, have you slept?" ”

When Yu Wenye heard this, he immediately frowned.

And Shang Ruyi has breathed a sigh of relief - saved!

She took three steps and two steps over and opened the door, only to see Shen Wuzheng standing at the door, looking at her gently: "Haven't you slept yet?" ”

"No, brother, do you have something to do with me?"

"I haven't seen you in a long time, and I have something to say to you. Are you going to rest? ”

After going through so many things tonight, Shang Ruyi didn't feel sleepy at all at the moment, not to mention the situation in the room, it was even more difficult for her to stay in a room with Yu Wenye, and hurriedly said: "I actually can't sleep, I want to talk to my brother." ”

"That's good,"

Shen Wuzheng said: "Then, come to my room." ”

Saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave, but he seemed to feel a sharp gaze staring at his back, he turned around, looked at Yu Wenye standing in the room, and said calmly: "Yuwen Gongzi, I still have something to say to my little sister, so I won't disturb your rest." ”

Shang Ruyi also glanced back, wanting to say something more, but he was still embarrassed after all, so he only nodded hurriedly and left.

Shen Wuzheng's room was next door, and when she walked in, it was similar to her room.

However, in addition to a candlestick, there were two clay cups filled with water on the low table in the center of the room.

Shang Ruyi walked over and sat down face to face with him.

It was only at this time that Shang Ruyi barely calmed down the embarrassing emotions and disordered heartbeat just now, took a sip of water from the cup, and raised his head again, only to see Shen Wuzheng looking at her carefully with a smile through the candlelight.

Shang Ruyi smiled: "What are you looking at?" ”

Shen Wuzheng said: "Look at what is different after my little sister gets married." ”

Shang Ruyi pursed his lips and smiled, raised his face to show him clearly, and said, "What's the difference?" ”

Shen Wuzheng said: "You are haggard." ”

“……！”

Shang Ruyi's heart skipped a beat.

She subconsciously lowered her head and said with a complicated expression: "I'm also a little tired after running such a long way overnight." ”

Shen Wuzheng said: "When I say haggard, it's not tired. ”

“……”

"I don't think you're happy."

“……”

"Ruyi, tell me honestly, is Yuwenye good to you?"

Hearing only this sentence, Shang Ruyi felt the sourness in her heart surging up like a tide, a hot touch flowed in her eyes, and she was almost about to burst out, she hurriedly lowered her head to hide her vulnerability at this moment, and said with a smile: "Brother, how can you ask like this!" ”

Shen Wuzheng said: "I only care about this matter, why can't I ask that?" ”

Shang Ruyi was silent for a while before he said, "He's very good to me." ”

Shen Wuzheng stared at her with burning eyes: "Really? ”

Shang Ruyi took a deep breath, then looked up at him with a smile, and said: "This time I came to save my uncle and aunt, everyone knows that it is a great disapproval of the world, but he is still willing to bring his people with me, if he is not good to me, how can it be so?" ”

“……”

Hearing this, Shen Wuzheng's expression eased slightly.

But he didn't show a reassuring, even happy look.

He rested on the table with one hand and held the water glass, but he didn't pick it up and take a sip for a long time, but he was silent for a long time before he sighed, and then raised his head to look at Shang Ruyi, and said softly: "My Ruyi, after all, has grown up." ”

“……”

"It's just that I didn't expect that so soon, it will be the age for you to get married."

Shang Ruyi smiled: "I can't be a child for the rest of my life." ”

Shen Wuzheng's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly reached over and rubbed her heart: "I hope you will be a child for the rest of your life." ”

obviously felt that it was enough to grow up by marrying a woman these days, but being rubbed by his brother like this, that kind of child's heart still surged up again, Shang Ruyi even felt a little sour, if he could really not marry for the rest of his life, stay with his uncle and aunt, and stay by his brother's side, it would be good.

In this way, can she always be as happy as she was when she was a child, without having to taste the bitterness of her feelings?

But now I be-

She was afraid that her mind would be seen through, so she only smiled reluctantly, and immediately changed the subject: "Brother, what are you going to do next?" ”

Shen Wuzheng said: "What are you going to do?" ”

"We should go back to Luoyang tomorrow."

"Then be careful on your way. I will accompany my father and mother to Lingnan. ”

When Shang Ruyi heard this, he immediately said, "Brother, do you still want to go?" ”

Shen Wuzheng nodded and said: "Although those escorted officials will not embarrass them, but the mountains and roads are far along the way, and the further south you go, the worse the situation will be, and I am by their side, at least I can make them suffer less." ”

“……”

"Moreover, I have to see the situation in Lingnan with my own eyes to feel at ease."

“……”

"Wait until I've settled them down, and then I'll find time to come back and meet you."

“……”

Shang Ruyi looked at him with some sadness, he thought that he would be able to reunite with his family when he came back this time, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen suddenly, and Shen Wuzheng didn't even have time to go home, and he had to accompany his uncle and aunt to Lingnan.

Shang Ruyi said softly: "I want to ...... too"

Shen Wuzheng immediately said, "You are not allowed to think about it!" ”

"Brother......

"Although I am interested in your marriage, but now, staying in Luoyang is your best choice. Lingnan is a miasma land, even if you want to go, I won't let you go! ”

"Brother......

Shang Ruyi also knew that although her brother loved her on weekdays, once it came to her own safety, it was useless to be coquettish, and in her own situation, it was indeed impossible to accompany her uncle and aunt to Lingnan as the young lady of the Guogong Mansion, so she could only nod aggrievedly.

After thinking about it, he asked again: "By the way, brother, when you come back this time, is it Mu Xiu, or have you already completed your studies and gone home?" ”

Shen Wuzheng said: "I am full. ”

"So, when my brother comes back this time, he won't go back to Mr. Li again? Does that brother have any plans for the future? ”

"What do you mean?"

"For example, if my brother wants to join the company, or—"

Shen Wuzheng's eyes flickered, looking at her: "Do you want me to join the ranks?" ”

Shang Ruyi immediately shook his head like a rattle: "No! ”

Seeing her like this, Shen Wuzheng immediately laughed, he put one hand on the table, his fingertips lightly tapped the table, and said, "I received a letter from my mother before, and she also mentioned that you once persuaded your father to resign and return to his hometown. Ruyi, you don't seem to have much confidence in the court. ”

Shang Ruyi looked at him: "Brother, do you have it?" ”

The moment he heard this, Shen Wuzheng's gentle pupils immediately became deep.
