The villa complex is located halfway up the mountain.

In the middle of the night, the hail turned to goose feather snow.

The trail is deserted, with only sporadic glow from sparse street lamps.

A thin figure walked on the mountain road, dragged out by the street lamp for a long shadow.

Occasionally, a car drove by, and the snow floated in the shadows of the lights, like a dancing elf.

Butler Liu was wrapped in a coat and stood at the door of the villa and kept looking in the direction of the mountain road.

Until the figure of the teenager gradually emerged.

Steward Liu's eyes lit up, and he picked up the cotton clothes in the crook of his arm and walked a few steps quickly.

"Young Master, you're finally back."

As he spoke, he draped the cotton coat over the young man.

"Uncle Liu."

The young man's long eyelashes were covered with a layer of frost, and when he raised his eyes, those eyes were exceptionally clear and translucent, as if they had the power to penetrate people's hearts.

Steward Liu was distressed: "Why don't you call home, I'll arrange for a driver to pick you up." ”

The villa complex is heavily secured, and unregistered vehicles can only park at the foot of the mountain, which is at least seven miles from the bottom of the mountain to the villa.

It was such a cold day, and it was snowing heavily, how did he walk back such a long way.

The young man's cheeks were white and red, and he didn't know if it was frozen.

He walked into the villa, this three-story small bungalow stood elegantly and quietly in the goose feather snow, and in the bright lights, it showed a bit of warmth and quiet.

It's a warm haven that everyone yearns for, and it's called home.

The boy lowered his eyes and changed into slippers at the entrance of the door.

The moment I opened the door, a wave of heat hit my face, and the interweaving of cold and heat caused the hairs on my skin to tremble.

He walked in quietly.

"Do you still know to come back?"

Helian Yu sat on the sofa, draped in a crimson cashmere shawl, and looked at the young man who walked in expressionlessly.

Yoo Yun-hee said goodnight and was about to go upstairs.

"Stop me."

The boy stopped and didn't turn back.

Helian Yu didn't get angry, what kind of thing was she born?

The temper is obedient and eccentric, and the three sticks can't make a stuffy fart.

Helian Yu suppressed his temper and tried to ease his tone: "Tomorrow, you accompany Miss Yu to Qingxia Mountain to play." ”

She was mentally prepared to be rejected by the other party, and even thought of a preemptive rhetoric, just waiting for him to speak.

"Okay."

Helian Yu suspected that he had misheard.

"What did you say?"

"I said I would accompany Miss Yu to Qingxia Mountain tomorrow."

The young man's voice was very calm, calm and flustering.

His unreasonable cards caught Helian Yu off guard, and he didn't have time to use the words he came up with.

The young man tugged at the corners of his mouth, but his eyes were bottomless.

"Is there anything else? I'm tired and want to rest early. ”

Helian Yu stared at his back, and agreed so quickly, there must be something wrong.

"Liu Runxi, think clearly before you do anything, what kind of identity you are, what consequences will you bring to your parents and the family if you do this, you are older, I can't control you anymore, I hope you remember your responsibilities and don't be willful."

The boy went upstairs without looking back.

Helian Yu stared at the figure of the young man who disappeared at the entrance of the building, his eyes were obscure.

Helian Yu took out his mobile phone and dialed the assistant.

"He has been staying with Shen You'an at night?"

The assistant replied after a few seconds: "After the young master sent Shen You'an home, he went to the criminal police brigade and saw Xiang Shenyu, and the two ate a bowl of wontons together on the side of the road, and then Xiang Shenyu sent the young master to the foot of the mountain and went back." ”

"Xiang Shenyu? What did they say to each other? ”

"Madam, you know Miss Xiang's ability, no one can eavesdrop on her speech."

Helian Yu swallowed back the word waste to his mouth.

"Staring at Xiang Shenyu, I want to know her every move."

Hanging up the phone, Helian Yu looked at the second floor.

You can't go wrong with the cooperation with Miss Yu, so Xi'er, you can only have one choice in life.

~

Yoo Yun-hee turned on the bedroom light.

The enclosed air flows with a subtle smell of perfume.

Agave, with musk notes.

There was only one person he knew who would use such a rich and intense perfume.

The boy lowered his eyelashes.

The frost and snow evaporated, and tiny droplets of crystal water hung on the eyelashes, crumbling.

He opened his bag and put everything in order.

In the end, there was only one picture book left on the desk, and there was nowhere to go.

The boy walked over to the bookshelf and took down one of the boxes on the top floor.

The moment he took it, his eyes changed.

The box has been touched.

He opened the lid and counted them one by one, and all the paintings were there.

He was visibly relieved.

His gaze rested on the last painting, the girl's peerless appearance was forever recorded by the brush, but the slight folds at the edges made the boy subconsciously frown.

The fingertips carefully smooth the folds, like a peerless treasure.

He opened the book, pulled out a few drawings, put them in a box, and resealed them.

It's like sealing the unspeakable thoughts of a teenager.

Wait silently in a dark corner, waiting for a day when you will see the light of day again.

The young man's slender fingers caressed the lid, and his eyes were as gentle as water.

"Wait for me."

~

It snowed overnight and the next day was a sunny day.

Yoo Yunxi got up very early, and when he went downstairs, he met his father who was sitting at the dining table reading the morning newspaper.

"Good morning."

Liu Qingfeng smiled when he saw him.

"Congratulations, you have achieved the CMO gold medal."

Yoo Yun-hee sat down, and the maid brought a milk sandwich.

"Thank you."

Liu Qingfeng put down the newspaper and looked at his son: "I heard your mother say that you are going to accompany Miss Yu to Qingxia Mountain today?" ”

Liu Runxi couldn't see the emotion on his face, he was always so calm and indifferent, and lowered his eyes and said lightly: "Yes." ”

Liu Qingfeng frowned: "You don't like it, I'll go tell your mother." ”

Yoo Yun-hee: "No, I've already agreed." ”

"But ......."

"Dad, have breakfast, you're almost late for work."

Liu Qingfeng sighed.

This kid is too sensible.

After breakfast, the two of them went out at the same time.

Liu Qingfeng went to work.

The car arranged by Helian Yu was waiting for Yoo Yun-hee at the door.

Today is Thursday, December 29th.

Students will not be released until tomorrow.

Students who have just returned from the winter camp have two days off.

Tomorrow night there will be a New Year's Day party at Lanya High School, and students just need to attend it on time.

Liu Runxi went to the hotel to pick up Yu Ruohuan first.

He waited at the door of the hotel for half an hour, but there was no Yu Ruohuan.

Sun Wei was a little anxious, and looked back at Liu Runxi sitting in the back seat from time to time.

He is the driver and bodyguard today, and the trip to Qingxia Mountain must be ordered by his wife to keep the young master safe.

The young master was still calm, holding a book in his hand, and reading it with relish, as if he would not be in a hurry until the earth was barren.

Sun Wei glanced at it carefully, and there seemed to be a few big words written on the cover.

Tao Te Ching

What book is this? Metaphysical numerology?

Sun Wei shook his head, he didn't understand.

In his eyes, the young master is a god-like existence.

At nine o'clock, Yu Ruohuan never came out.

Sun Wei couldn't help but remind: "Young master, the road to Qingxia Mountain is more difficult, it's best to start early, otherwise I am afraid it will not work in a day." ”

In winter, it gets dark early, and the mountain roads are difficult to drive, and it is difficult to walk after five o'clock.

Liu Runxi said without raising his head: "No hurry." ”

At 9:15, Yu Ruohuan finally walked out of the hotel.

The pair of dragons and phoenixes of a man and a woman beside him are inseparable, as well as two bodyguards who are inseparable.

Sun Wei immediately got out of the car and opened the back seat door.

"Miss Yu, please get in the car."

Yu Ruohuan looked at the young man sitting in the car, reading quietly, and raised her eyebrows.

"Liu-san, it's early."

The young man's tone was light: "It's not early." ”

Yu Ruo sat in with a smile.

Jing Fang was going to sit in the co-pilot, Yu Ruohuan's eyes fell on her lightly, Jing Fang pursed her lips, and obediently went to the car behind.

Jiaolong sat in the passenger seat, and Jing Huan and Yun Long went to the car behind them.

Yu Ruohuan brushed the hem of her skirt and smiled: "I thought you wouldn't come." ”

"Parents' orders."

Yu Ruohuan said smoothly: "The words of the matchmaker." ”

When the words fell, she herself didn't think the joke was funny, and pouted.

Liu Runxi never cheered, holding a book with an expressionless face, Yu Ruohuan gradually felt bored.

"Are you so bored to stay with Shen You'an?"

Yu Ruohuan obviously felt that the temperature in the carriage was dropping, and she continued to thunder.

"The last question of this CMO exam, the Stokes equation, is rumored to be the only one that Shen Youan has solved, are you willing to succumb to Shen You'an?"

"For a self-respecting eldest lady since childhood, it is indeed difficult to admit the excellence of others, I understand you, but I am not you."

The boy turned the page, calmly and indifferently.

Yu Ruohuan's cheeks bulged and smiled slowly.

"Yoo Yun-hee, I'm getting more and more interested in you."

"No, you're just jealous of Shen You'an and want to experience the thrill of conquest on me, but unfortunately, you will never succeed."

Yu Ruohuan raised her eyebrows: "Then give it a try." ”

She admits that Shen Youan is a genius, but the young man in front of him is only one step away from solving the Stokes equation, and his mind is not far behind.

Looking at Yoo Yun-hee's achievements since childhood, he will always rank second.

She didn't believe that Yoo Yun-hee didn't have the ability to earn the first.

The smartest thing about him is to control his cleverness.

People will only remember the first person who landed on the moon, but what about the second?

In the same way, the eternal second place, the halo is attracted by the first place.

She didn't know whether to say that Yoo Yun-hee was too stupid or too smart.

She likes to deal with really smart people instead of fools who pretend to be smart.

Coming to the foot of Qingxia Mountain, there are many tourists, all of whom come here.

Qingxia Mountain after the snow is the real beauty of the world.

Sun Wei went to get the ticket, and several people checked the ticket to enter the scenic spot and began to hike the mountain.

Yoo Yun-hee walked ahead and never looked back.

Yu Ruohuan was born in the Yu family, and she is not a Miss Jiao who can't lift her shoulders, and this mountain road is not difficult for her.

It wasn't long before he lost his strength and panted against the railing.

"Brother Runxi, you wait for me."

The young man kicked his long legs and easily crossed the two stairs, and his slender back was hidden in the mountain mist, which was quite elegant.

Yu Ruohuan climbed fast, and it didn't take long to leave Jing Fang and Jing Huan behind.

The three bodyguards are absolutely guarding their master.

Two hours later, Liu Yunxi came to the pavilion halfway up the mountain, and looked down from here, the clouds covered the mist, like a fairyland.

Yu Ruohuan walked up to him, "My physical strength is good, I have been climbing for so long, and I haven't seen any fatigue." ”

She spoke a little gasping and fine sweat broke out on her forehead.

On the other hand, Liu Yunxi is very refreshing.

"If you can't hold on, you can take the cable car."

Yoo Yun-hee took out his mobile phone and took a photo of the clouds in the distance.

"Do you need me to take a picture for you?"

Yoo Yun-hee put away his phone, turned around and continued to walk up the mountain.

Yu Ruohuan raised her eyebrows and kept up with Liu Runxi's footsteps.

It took another two hours to climb to the top of the mountain, and a group of Taoist temples appeared in front of me.

At the beginning of the day after the snow, the clouds and mist are shrouded, and the golden dome of the Taoist temple is shining in the sun, like the fairyland of the sea and the sky, and it is magnificent.

Yu Ruohuan looked at the beautiful scenery on the top of the mountain and nodded with satisfaction.

It took four hours to climb up, and the beautiful scenery paid off, and the trip was worth it.

The core of the Taoist temple is a magnificent moral building, which enshrines the Taoist Sanqing statue, painted murals, and the Taoist atmosphere is strong.

Liu Runxi bowed after entering, and a long table was set up in the side hall not far away, and behind the table sat an old Taoist priest in an old Taoist robe, with long hair and beard, quite a bit of fairy wind bones.

The old Taoist priest kept asking for a sign in front of him, and after asking for it, the old Taoist priest took the trouble to unsign, most of them were auspicious words, asking for a peace of mind, and the person who asked for the sign left with joy.

Yu Ruohuan shook her head, she never believed in this.

"Swaggering."

Who knew that there was a little Taoist boy passing by, and when he heard Yu Ruohuan's words, he immediately frowned and said, "How can the blessed master speak in front of the ancestor master." ”

Yu Ruohuan hooked her lips: "Zi is silent, strange and confused." ”

"The blessed lord is wrong, the saint is silent, the strange power is confused, whether the blessed lord has forgotten the next sentence, worship the ghosts and gods and stay away, the gentleman should be on the right path in his heart, if he does not worship the ghosts and gods with righteous thoughts, he will be controlled by the ghosts and gods."

Behind the long table, the old Taoist priest stroked his beard and said leisurely.

All the pilgrims in the hall gave Yu Ruohuan a disapproving look.

Why don't you believe in ghosts and gods?

Yoo Yun-hee wrapped his left hand with his right hand and bent over to compose.

A gentleman, gentle as jade.

"Daochang Zhang, my friend is ignorant and doesn't understand etiquette, he collided with Daochang, and he will make amends on behalf of him, please forgive me."

Zhang Daochang squinted at him, and his gaze fell on the young man's gesture.

"The tourists who come to see the old way, one counts as one, none of them do it right, and the current people's hearts are too impetuous."

Liu Runxi's words are respectful: "There is a saying in the Tao Te Ching, the gentleman is on the left, the soldier is on the right, and the use of soldiers is unknown." ”

Yu Ruohuan looked at Liu Runxi, the young man stood there quietly, calmly and indifferently, with a faint light on his body, so dazzling.

The gentleman shines without fighting, and he reads and listens.

He is a true gentleman.

Zhang Daochang squinted and looked at it for a long time, and suddenly smiled.

"The old Taoist looks at your face, with high ears, double sword eyebrows, and plump lips, which is extremely noble. The heavenly court is full, the earth is round, the sovereign is noble, and the life is rich and noble, and the joy is worry-free. ”

Yu Ruohuan looked at Liu Runxi with complicated eyes.

Speaking of this, the old Taoist priest stroked his beard and said, "It's a pity, it's a pity, it's ......a pity." ”

Yu Ruohuan immediately asked, "What is a pity?" ”

The old Taoist snorted coldly, "Zi is silent, and the strange power is confused. ”
