"Zhou Nan, I'm fine, go back and rest."

Zhou Nan got the reply from inside, but he didn't leave immediately, still guarding the door, listening to the movement inside.

Shen Qingzhen sent away a plague god, but he didn't feel much sleep, thinking about tonight's events in bed.

Listening to Chu You's words, I am afraid that I will come to trouble myself.

Zhou Nan's ears were very good, and when he heard the voice inside, he knew that Shen Qingzhen was not asleep, and asked, "Miss, are you hungry?" ”

Shen Qingzhen heard Zhou Nan's voice and said, "You haven't left yet?" ”

"Yes, I'm afraid you have any other orders, if you are hungry, I will go and cook you something to eat."

Shen Qingzhen lost his sleepiness, and he was indeed hungry, so he said, "Okay, let's cook some." ”

"Miss, wait for me for a moment, I'll be back shortly."

Zhou Nan immediately turned around and went to the kitchen in the courtyard, he knew that Shen Qingjian was a picky eater, so he also made it a little more finely.

Soon, he made a bowl of noodles, and quickly went to the outside of Shen Qingji's room, he knocked on the door gently: "Miss, I made noodles, can you taste it?" ”

Shen Qingzhen also waited, and when he heard the voice, he immediately put on his clothes, wrapped his cloak and went out to open the door.

Zhou Nan waited quietly outside the door.

There was a little snow outside the door, and there were snowflakes on his shoulders and head, and it was cold to look at, but he carefully touched a bowl, and there was no chill at all.

"Come on in! Don't freeze. ”

Shen Qingzhen went to pull Zhou Nan's arm, but he took a step back to avoid it.

"Come in!"

Zhou Nan glanced at the dim room behind Shen Qingji, and then lowered his head, "The subordinates won't go in." ”

"Oh, what are you afraid of? Can I still eat you? ”

"It's late at night, and it's not appropriate for subordinates to go in."

Seeing his stubbornly abiding appearance, Shen Qingzhen thought about how he could have such an old-fashioned child, so he walked into the house and sat down, sighed and said, "If you don't come in again, the food will be almost cold." ”

Zhou Nan's hand holding the bowl tightened slightly.

After thinking for a while, he stepped into the room with his feet raised, and then quickly put the bowl in front of Shen Qingji.

Shen Qingzhen pointed to the opposite position and said, "Don't be restrained, sit down and talk to me." ”

Zhou Nan hesitated, but turned around and sat down.

He raised his eyes slightly, pretending to be inadvertent, and watched Shen Qingjian lift the lid on the bowl.

The bowl is noodles, and a poached egg is intimately covered, the poached egg is fried golden on both sides, it looks very good, and the rich fragrance spreads out, which makes Shen Qingji, who was just a little hungry, have an appetite.

Shen Qingji immediately took a big bite, and it tasted delicious.

She couldn't help but praise: "Zhou Nan, I didn't expect you to have this cooking skill!" ”

Zhou Nan, who was praised, was also happy in his heart, and looked at Shen Qingji, who was eating noodles, with a flickering expression, and said, "If Miss likes to eat, I will make it every day in the future." ”

Shen Qingzhen smiled: "Then forget it, you will get tired of eating it every day, just do it occasionally." ”

Zhou Nan then said: "Then I'll learn something else to make for Miss." ”

"You're not a cook, so don't overdo it."

Shen Qingji took a big bite of the omelette, looked up at Zhou Nan, and asked, "Have you ever thought about what kind of life you will live in the future?" ”

Zhou Nan has followed himself since he was a child, and he is the most obedient and good at martial arts, and he can do things properly these days, and he can't be asked to be a guard all the time.

What kind of life is it to live?

Zhou Nan's eyes moved slightly, and the afterglow swept over the delicate girl in front of him.

He wants to stay by Miss's side all the time.

"Zhou Nan, do you want to be an official?"

Zhou Nan has such martial arts, if he starts as a pawn, he will slowly come out, and he will live a more comfortable life than being a guard here.

"Does Miss want to drive me away?"

Zhou Nan thought of three years ago, Miss sent him to learn martial arts outside, Miss is not, she still wants to send herself outside?

For some reason, Zhou Nan's tone slightly heard a hint of grievance.

Shen Qingzhen thought that he was childlike and unwilling to leave the familiar environment, so he comforted him: "It's not to drive you, I'll ask you, if you don't want to go, forget it." ”

Zhou Nan lowered his eyes, pursed his lips lightly, and after a while, he said, "If Miss wants me to go, I'll go." ”

Shen Qingzhen asked: "If I tell you to go, you will go?" ”

Zhou Nan's hands clenched and said, "Yes, I listen to Miss." ”

Shen Qingzhen didn't expect Zhou Nan to listen to her words like this, but she just wanted Zhou Nan to have a good future, but she didn't want to force him to go.

"Forget it, if you don't want to go, forget it."

After hearing this, Zhou Nan's heart was slightly relieved.

As long as he stays by Miss's side and can watch Miss.

Shen Qingzhen finished eating a bowl of noodles, his stomach was warm, so he said, "Zhou Nan, you should go to sleep quickly." ”

"Yes!"

Zhou Nan picked up the noodle bowl, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a candlestick rolling down under the windowsill.

His gaze moved up to the footprints on the windowsill, which seemed to be the size of a man's.

Before the sourness in Zhou Nan's heart rose, he saw that there were still a few drops of blood on the edge of the windowsill.

Zhou Nan's pupils opened slightly, and he looked at Shen Qingzhen a little nervously, worried about her safety.

"Miss......"

Shen Qingzhen turned his head and saw that Zhou Nan hadn't left yet, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Miss, are you hurt?"

"What?"

Shen Qingzhen went to look at Zhou Nan and found that he was looking at the windowsill, so he also knew that he had found it.

"Don't worry, I'm not hurt, the blood isn't mine."

Zhou Nan frowned: "It's the subordinates who protect the young lady." ”

"It's not your problem, go back and rest."

"Yes."

Zhou Nan turned around and helped Shen Qingjian close the door.

But he did not leave at once, but went out of the window, and sure enough, he saw the footprints on the wall, all the way to the window.

Who is that person?

Zhou Nan showed annoyance on his face, blaming himself for being negligent tonight, so that this thief had a chance.

So on the second day, without Shen Qingjian mentioning more, Zhou Nan invited a craftsman to renovate Shen Qingjian's courtyard.

Blades are inserted on the walls of the courtyard, and it is very dangerous to look at, and it is prohibitive.

And Shen Qingji's window is designed with a mechanism, except that it can be opened inside, it is difficult to enter outside.

Shen Qingjian patted Zhou Nan: "Good job!" ”

Zhou Nan: "This is what subordinates should do, and subordinates will never put Miss in a dangerous situation in the future." ”

Caihuan listened confused and asked, "Miss, what is the danger?" ”

"Nothing!"

Caihuan frowned, looked at the young lady and then looked at Zhou Nan, only felt weird, there must be something he didn't know.

Well, the young lady has something to tell herself!

She is Miss's first confidant, this Zhou Nan, who actually wants to exclude herself.

Caihuan looked at Zhou Nan more and more unpleasantly, and Zhou Nan didn't see her resentful gaze at all, so Caihuan was even more angry.

Seeing that Zhou Nan was leaving, Caihuan stopped him: "What are you going to do?" ”

Zhou Nan frowned: "Go buy Chen Ji osmanthus cake for Miss." ”

"You are not allowed to go! I'll help Miss buy it! ”

Caihuan was afraid that this guy would be a sycophant in front of the young lady, so he ran out as fast as he could, and then came back with the osmanthus crisp at a very fast speed.

"Miss, Miss, I bought it on purpose!"

Shen Qingzhen smiled: "It's rare! Why didn't you let Zhou Nan go? ”

"Zhou Nan! He said he was too lazy to run and told me to go! He's been cheating lately! ”

The number of dissatisfied color rings fell to Zhou Nan.

Shen Qingzhen didn't believe it at all, Zhou Nan's old-fashioned appearance was obviously not cheating and cheating.

She nodded the head of the colored ring: "Why did Zhou Nan offend you?" ”

Caihuan turned his head with the osmanthus cake in his arms, and said with his mouth cocked: "You didn't offend me!" ”

"Get along well, don't bully Zhou Nan!"

Caihuan was dissatisfied: "Where did I bully him!" ”

Looking at the osmanthus crisp on Caihuan's face, and pouting his dissatisfied, Shen Qingzhen laughed out loud.

This little girl is really funny.

Shen Qingjian's laughter spread to the outer courtyard, Zhou Nan listened, although he didn't see her, he could imagine how happy she was, and he couldn't help but be infected by this laughter, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile.
