She said, "I'm sorry. ”

Sheng Xuan's resentful heart suddenly cooled by half, his lips moved, but Qiong Yi continued, "Sheng Xuan, I apologize for lying to you that time, I shouldn't have used this method to test your sincerity, and I still hope to hide it from you all the time with the idea of luck, I shouldn't be like this." Joan also looked at him steadily, her brows slightly lowered with guilt: "Even after all this time, even if you know the truth and don't anger me, I still have to say this." ”

"Well, we ......"

"I have a lot to say to you." She bit her lip: "Now." ”

"Okay, you say." "I'm listening," he said. ”

She cleared her throat, lowered her voice, and talked about what happened yesterday, "Yesterday, it was you who said that engagement is not child's play, and you want to slow down this matter, but at night you came to ask for an answer, and you reversed your word." Secondly, when you asked me to go to Baiyu Mountain with you, you acted against my objections, which made me angry the most, what did you think of me? ”

"I'm sorry." Sheng Xuan pursed his lips resentfully: "In the future, I won't be like this." ”

Letting out his anger, his heart was lightened, and after Qiong Yi was silent for a moment, he said, "...... You'd better do what you say. ”

Let herself do what she says, the implication is that she has a future with him. Sheng Xuanyan heard the meaning of the words, and his tense emotions gradually eased, and he listened to her quietly.

"Sheng Hui, most people love the beauty of flowers and leaves, but that's not all about it." Joan also stared at his inky black pupils, his eyes trembling slightly, "It still has countless slender and easily broken roots buried in the dark, and there, plus the surface, is the complete ......"

“…… This flower is you and me. ”

"Not only am I afraid of sneaky, but I'm also a person who gets upset easily." In her seemingly plain words, there are too many pasts hidden, and she is forced to wander under the fence...... Those resentful past that are more or less known, "I want to hide my cowardice, but those experiences that are stacked up are not something I can let go of easily." ”

"I enjoy being with you, as long as you're by my side, I'm always at ease."

"But when the uneasiness and compulsion are brought to me by you, even if I cherish you so much and care about you, I will push it away."

Qiong also took a deep breath: "Tell me, Sheng Jun, why are you in such a hurry to make an appointment?" Just because of the rumors that have been out there all the time? ”

“…… There are so many reasons. Sheng Xuan's tone was very light: "Guangyang has your senior brother named Lu Xu staring at you, everyone thinks that I want to marry Lu Yanshan, Bai Yu does not have you with me, and the Spring Festival is approaching, it is the best time to meet your master, all kinds of reasons are superimposed, why don't I take this opportunity to set the marriage?" ”

"Sect Master Sheng and Madame Sheng haven't seen me, will they agree?"

"They can't take care of it."

"But my master may not agree."

Sheng Xuan complained shallowly: "Qiong Yi, do you think that the rumors in the market are groundless?" If the two tribes did not have such a plan, how could such a word come out? ”

Joan was dumbfounded.

"Do you really want to see me make a marriage contract with someone else and then get you involved?" He frowned and said lightly, "I thought, it's better for you and me to make an appointment early, and finalize this matter, no matter how many others disturb the situation, it won't change anything." ”

"Are you afraid of Lu Xu and his ......?"

"He's close to the water, if I and he bring this up to your master at the same time, how sure do you think I am?"

"My master, he has always respected my wishes." When Joan said this, her tone was a little forced.

Sheng Xuan's eyes were bitter: "...... What about you? ”

Joan's eyes widened: "Me? ”

"You don't want to go to Baiyu with me, are you afraid of its name as a ghost mountain?"

"It's not." Shaking her head, she said: "Ghost Mountain suppresses evil ghosts, it is a righteous place, I am not afraid." I don't want to go with you, the most important thing is that Ah Luo doesn't have a good home yet, and because I didn't leave the Lu family, I promised to make an appointment with you, and I will not be able to go to live with you in Bai Xuan at least three years later. ”

"You, what did you say?" Sheng Xuan was stunned for a moment, and repeated the question uncertainly: "You promised me?" ”

"I, I said yes......" Joan also looked away: "Ru...... If you push me like you did yesterday, I won't agree to it! ”

The heaviest stone in Sheng Xuan's heart finally fell smoothly, and he raised his hand to hold her: "Enough, with your words, it's enough." ”

There was a familiar temperature in his arms, and the familiar aroma of cold pine, obviously it had only been awkward for less than a day, but Qiong also felt that this night had passed so long, and his nose was a little sour, buried in his chest and shouted: "Hey! Sheng Jun! I haven't finished my sentence yet, don't even think about marrying me so soon! ”

Sheng Xuanyan said that he didn't let go of anything, there was not much joy on his face, but there was a smile in his eyes: "I haven't been crowned an adult yet, and I can't marry if I want to." ”

Only then did Qiong Yi realize his age: "It's also oh, what you said about dating, do you really just want to make an appointment in advance?" ”

"yes." He said: "The two clans have officially made a covenant to announce that in the future, no one will say anything about you." ”

"Idiot, you're thinking too well." Joan also patted him twice, "The person who should chew the root of the tongue will definitely still chew, but I shouldn't care about it then." ”

"Hmm."

After a long time, she asked, "How long are you going to hold it?" ”

"......" Hearing this, Sheng Xuanyan honestly let go of his hand and carried the oiled paper bag to her: "I bought you Gantang cake, we ......"

Joan also took the pastry and said in a very normal tone: "For the sake of the pastry, I will continue to say hello to you." ”

Sheng Xuan complained that she was stubborn: "Okay." ”

*

Chewing on the sweet but not greasy pastries, Qiong Yi continued to ask him without a beat: "You just said that Sect Master Sheng can't control you, are you serious?" They're your parents, so they're going to take care of this kind of thing, right? ”

Sheng Xuan took a bite of Gantang cake and drank half a sip of tea: "...... If you don't listen, you just don't listen. ”

"Huh?" Joan was also surprised: "You and them...... Any contradictions? ”

"I just have to listen to them and do my job, and there will be no contradictions."

Qiong also felt that the pastry in her hand was tasteless, and pinched it between her fingers for a long time: "I remember that you mentioned last night that you 'this life is connected with white wine', does that mean your duty?" "She only knows that the Sheng clan needs to suppress evil spirits and clean up evil spirits, but if it is more specific, it is not something that outsiders can know.

Sheng Xuan sighed for a moment: "These are not that I can't tell you, my clan is ancient, a lineage, a family that attaches great importance to blood, the ancestors have regulations, each patriarch must have more than two children under his knees, one is to continue the incense, for the family, the other is for the war thousands of ghosts, for the Middle Earth, for the people." ”

"The eldest son inherits the position of patriarch, and the second son guards the white and evil seats. Although I am the youngest son in this generation, I will bear this responsibility in the future. He said flatly, "My duty in this life is to suppress the 'Double Evils' and prevent them from escaping the seal and causing disaster to the common people." ”

"It is my duty to contribute to my eldest brother and seek for my family, I can't complain, and I shouldn't have complaints." He put down his teacup, "So, I really can't leave Bai Xu, or rather, I can't get out of there for long." ”

Joan also dragged out the syllables: "Oh. ”

Sheng Xuanren smiled lightly: "Actually, I have already accepted my fate, if it weren't for you, I would always be a cold pine on the mountain, guarding there, I don't know what the world is like." In Master Sun's class, you said that you were 'born in the world, seeing the world with your eyes, coming and going with the wind', which couldn't help but make me think of my life framed to death, boring and tasteless, I can't leave that place, so I hope you can accompany me. ”

She pouted: "Then you should also consider my thoughts!" ”

"It's my fault, I'm not good." He lowered his eyes, his slender eyelashes covering his ink pupils, "Actually, when you said you didn't want to go back with me, I thought about it." If you don't want to live with me for a long time, I'll go with you, and I'll buy a house wherever you like, I have money. ”

Qiong Yi burst out laughing: "Thank you for your kindness, but you don't have to be like this for me, the responsibility of protecting the thousands of people in Middle-earth is much more important than me." ”

"I'll take care of it."

She bent her eyelashes and threw the candy cake into her mouth.

"Qiong Yi, you are the first girl I like, and the last." Sheng Xuan looked at her eyes resentfully, and his tone was solemn, "You took me to see the hustle and bustle of the world, taught me a lot of fun, when you look at me, your eyes are always bright, you keep telling me how good I am, like me, no one has ever said that you love me before......"

Qiong Yi chewed in his mouth, and he couldn't chew anymore.

"I was always cold when I was in Baiyu Mountain, I didn't know it was cold, because I didn't know what warmth was, but I met you."

"I don't know what it's like to like someone, no one has taught me, I just want to be nice to you."

She lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes: "Oh, you said this...... Do what. ”

"I'm glad you agreed to make an appointment to me." Sheng Xuan didn't notice the tip of her red nose and ears: "When I came to wait at the door of your room, I thought about the two vows you made to me, and there was one left." ”

"I'm going to use it to get you to promise me about marriage."

"If I really said it, you probably wouldn't have refused, but if you don't say it tonight, you'll always come out of hiding someday, and I don't want you to marry me because of your vows. I don't want that. ”

"Simply, you and I will open our hearts and say it together."

Joan also half-twisted and said with a low "um".

"Qiongyi, what's wrong with you......" He got up in shock when he saw the droplets of water dripping down the tip of her chin and walked to her side, "Don't cry......"

Qiong also covered her face and choked up a little: "What's the matter with you, obviously you used to be a person who didn't speak, but now you are talking a lot!" It's all love talk! I ......" she hammered Sheng Xuan's resentment beside her, "You, take my heart to kidnap me!" I ......"

“…… I've been surrendered, and I'm all right! ”

The fist that was not light or heavy fell on her chest, like a stone in water, rippling layer by layer, Sheng Xuan rubbed her head, and between her voices, Qiong Yi wiped more and more tears, seeing that she couldn't stop, she simply buried it in his chest and cried: "Sheng Xuan, you...... It's a vixen. ”

He patted her on the back and said "no".

It took a while for the tears to stop, Sheng Xuan's knuckles ran down her cheeks to wipe her tears, and asked her, "Okay?" ”

Qiong also threw him away, took the remaining pieces of Gantang cake and stuffed her mouth to the brim, and replied, "Okay! ”

After cleaning the oiled paper on the table, Sheng Xuan turned to look out the window: "It's not early, I should go back." When he walked to the door, he thought of something, and turned back with some hesitation, "Qiong Yi, the spring banquet in the near future......"

"I'll be with you." Joan looked at him and nodded.
