236 Fate Like a String (16)
The voice is still flat, but it can be heard, the meaning of this speech is strong, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is aggressive. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Jun Li knew that he was irrefutable at this moment, so he could only nod his head and agree with the so-called "Three Chapters of the Law". In his opinion, the best plan for his own restraint was the same, and as for the going of okra, okra, how could the two of them decide behind their backs.
Seeing him nodding, Suzaku sneered, "It's good that you understand." ”
It's getting much brighter. Suzaku asked about the aftermath in detail, and Jun Li answered in great detail, and it was almost hour. Over there, Okra and Lou Qianshan had already gotten up, and they came here cautiously to listen, but Suzaku didn't stop them, so the two of them came in.
Lou Qianshan only heard that Jun Li seemed to have just finished talking to Suzaku about the beginning and end of his encounter with Song Ke, and he didn't know Song Ke's identity in the Black Bamboo Society, nor did he know the real purpose of his visit, so he looked at Jun Li with a pair of eyes, and then bowed his head and said nothing. Suzaku had already looked up at her and said, "How is he now?"
Lou Qianshan hurriedly replied: "Song Gongzi has woken up, I don't know what to do with Lord Zhu, I have locked him in the room for the time being." ”
Suzaku groaned slightly. "You take me to see it. ”
I don't know if it's intentional or not, but in this house, only Jun Li and Okra were left.
“...... He didn't embarrass you. Okra couldn't bear to look at each other like this, and spoke first, as if she wanted to ask him, but her tone didn't look like a question.
“...... He didn't embarrass you. Jun Li smiled slightly, and seemed to have a clever response, but fortunately it didn't seem frivolous.
Then there was silence again. These two sentences made the two of them breathe a sigh of relief, as if they had finally confirmed that even after such a long time, the original concern had not disappeared - this meeting, which occupied the most, was still a kind of joy to see each other safe and sound.
"Naturally, he doesn't embarrass me - he always takes care of me. Okra smiled knowingly, exaggerating his words, but then hesitated, and added, "Did you say anything last night......?" We're going to go back together, right?"
"I didn't talk about this verse...... Still, it should be so. Jun Li said, "It's here, and he doesn't have any reason to stay outside." Suddenly, there was a pause, "In the inner city - how have these last few months? Nothing has happened, has it?"
"There is nothing abnormal on the surface," Okra brushed her hair slightly, and her face looked solemn, "I didn't care much about it, and I didn't know the details, but when I came out, I heard someone mention that it seems that the prince and Suzaku are meeting now, and there are occasional words, and the atmosphere is not very good, and the tension during this period is probably a little more than before you left." These months have actually ...... Everyone doesn't know whether you are alive or dead, and the prince seems to believe that you are more than lucky, and I heard that whenever he meets Suzaku, he always deliberately mentions you. You also know Suzaku's temper, although he does not clash with the prince head-on, but ...... Just think about it, you know that he won't swallow this breath. If you go back, it will be tantamount to slapping the prince in the mouth for him. ”
"Is it already so tense...... Jun Li muttered.
Okra nodded: "This time we also left Beijing quietly, I guess if the prince knows, he will definitely make some articles." Suzaku can hide this matter for three days at most, and today is the third day. If he didn't return today, Zhang Ting would bring someone over to answer the matter--this matter itself was nothing, but it was difficult to keep the prince from knowing at that time, so ......"
She sighed softly, "I should go back today anyway." ”
Jun Li did not speak. When okra said this, she didn't seem to realize that she frowned slightly—the one that was a little worried. This surprised him a little at the change in her - the phrase "he always took care of me" was probably not a joke, and she really cared about Suzaku as a father now. ――Maybe that's a good thing, right?
He was a little happy and comforted her, "He is naturally more thoughtful than us, so don't worry too much." ”
Okra nodded slightly, and asked him some more questions, and it was a little shocking to hear him come one by one. When I looked up and saw him in front of me, I still felt like I was in a different world.
Jun Li didn't want her to worry too much, so he said lightly that he was seriously injured at that time, and naturally took the thorn he was injured for lightly. Okra stared at his eyebrows, always feeling that he seemed very indifferent, indifferent...... It's a little different from the one he used to be in front of him.
Even in the past, when they had planned together how to infiltrate the inner city in Lin'an City, he would not be so indifferent when it came to thorns. She still remembered the flickering eyes of him and the thorn at the moment when he parted from Qinglong Gukou yesterday. At this moment, a flashback was like a thin needle gently piercing her long-hidden heart, making her feel that there were some things, no matter how much she covered her ears and stole the bell, she was afraid that she would not be able to escape and deceive herself.
She bit her lip, smiled, and said, "If you hadn't been found by Suzaku this time, you would have stayed in Qinglong Valley with Thorn, right?"
"How could it be. Jun Li didn't show any abnormalities because of such a question. "Just stay a day or two longer, the father of the thorn, who had asked me to stay at their house for two days, and I was going to relate with them, and then I would return to Lin'an. ”
"Really?" Okra looked directly at him, "You know that if you return to Lin'an, Suzaku will not let you go again." ”
"But I can't help but come back?"
"If you come back, you'll have to abandon the thorn—what will she do?"
This sentence finally made Jun Li's eyebrows twitch slightly, as if he was startled by her sudden aggressiveness. He looked up at her. Her face was unfazed, as if she had prepared everything to receive any of his answers. He understood in an instant, she had already seen it.
She should have known that she was as keen as she was, and cared about herself as she was, what could she not see and hide? Did she force him to admit something in person? In the face of the truth, all the excuses used to avoid her in the past would be wiped out!
He hesitated. It was too easy to deny or explain, but it was hard to admit it—the truth, to hurt her severely, and to expose one's heart—neither of which was easy for a man like him. If she hadn't suddenly asked such a question, he would have been silent—it had nothing to do with them anyway. He had a thorn in his heart, as long as he knew it.
But how can you not hurt hard? All drinking to quench thirst will eventually have an end. If even okra can't stand it anymore and wants to know the answer, how can he continue to hide himself and give her a false answer?
Suzaku said that in the future, I will not be too free to be restricted. After a moment's hesitation, he replied casually, "I think—I can go and see her even then." ”
Okra shook his heart, like the blood of a needle prick. That's his answer. He was answering her question, and the answer was smooth and steady, just as she had asked the question in a calm tone, but the aggressiveness of the truth was just as aggressive as the question hidden. He admitted nothing, but he admitted everything—not even an excuse.
She didn't know how to answer, she didn't know how to end the question she asked, so she could only let out a soft "oh". Jun Li didn't look at her, but continued: "Besides, I think that Suzaku wants me to follow his 'Ming Spiegel Jue' martial arts, and at the latest, when I finish learning, he will let me go." ”
He looked up at her before he finished speaking. He's got it to the end. He believed she understood.
Yes, she got it. She knew that what Suzaku said was not wrong at all. Jun Li didn't like her because he was a Taoist, but because he didn't like her, he was always a Taoist. It turned out that he could like someone else, and that person was another girl.
She still bit her lip and just nodded slightly, "Well, it should be." She still wanted to keep her feelings, but her voice was a little uncontrollable.
All words of comfort are better than not being spoken. Any words, if not sympathetic and merciful, will only backfire - Jun Li knows it. If there is any comfort for her at this moment, then it is better not to answer the two sentences just now. Long pain is better than short pain, and it was probably at this time that the two of them really felt the same way.
The figure outside the gate moved, and Jun Li had already seen Suzaku coming back, but he did not see Lou Qianshan and Song Ke. Feeling a little strange, he stepped forward and said, "Master—"
He wanted to ask about Song Ke, but before he finished speaking, Okra had already stepped forward.
"Dad, let's leave today, I'll go and prepare first. You say. ”
She kept her head down, didn't look at anyone, didn't wait for any answer, but as if she had been informed, she walked away. Suzaku didn't stop her, and Junli didn't stop her. He watched okra leave, and he felt that this time his back left a little selfish relief, and when he came back to his senses, he saw Suzaku looking at him meaningfully.
He hurriedly gathered his mind and said, "Master, I heard okra say that we are going to the capital today, right?"
"It was so. Suzaku was only halfway there.
"What does Master mean ......?" Jun Lihu wondered, "What's wrong with Song Gongzi?"
"Song Ke and you are familiar with each other?" Suzaku asked without answering.
"It's okay - it's a friend. Jun Li thought for a moment and said.
Suzaku nodded, "There's nothing wrong with him, but it's a few of you who are wrong." He replied. "I was undecided about something, and even though I saw you yesterday, I still couldn't let go, but now I have a new idea. ”
He paused, "I'm afraid you don't know that the three branches of the Demon Sect where Okra and Lou Qianshan are located will soon have a meeting on the shore of Dongting Lake, and both of them are among the invitees. The people of the three branches are unpredictable, and this meeting is also unpredictable, okra - I have no reason to let her go, but she is the only descendant of the Lingyin Gate, if she can't go, how will one of the three branches think of this in advance, I'm afraid she herself is actually unhappy, this is not what I want. This time I brought her out, and I also thought about it all the way to no avail. If it is said that there is Lou Qianshan with him, but Lou Qianshan himself has a lot of scruples, and he does not necessarily have much help. Yesterday I had a meeting with the head of the Illusory Realm, and he promised that he would take care of okra, but I really didn't trust this person-"
When he said this, he raised his eyes and looked at Jun Li. "I might even like to go with her on my own, but I'm really hesitant to let me go away for so long in the Forbidden City. Now that you are back, it is better to leave it to you this time - after this meeting, you will bring okra back to the capital, so that you may have the best place to go. ”
