Chapter Twenty-Six: The Prodigal Son
Facing Zhixue's bright smile, Zhiyu was at a loss. "You don't have to be so polite to me all the time, everything I do is Childe's orders. It's because he doesn't worry about others taking care of you, and you don't have to credit all your kindness to me. Don't be careful, I'm just doing what I'm told. ”
He looked into Zhixue's eyes and said firmly: "Maybe I have strange thoughts about you, but please don't panic." A few years ago, my own sister fell into the Peach Blossom River and has not been heard from since. My parents died early, and I couldn't stay with her for a long time because of my status as a shadow guard, and I was half responsible for her death, so I saved you in the river. If my sister had fallen into the water, there had been a good Samaritan who rescued her......"
Zhiyu's voice paused, although he didn't see much sadness, but his frowning brows, like mountains and rivers, would never be smoothed.
"I also hope that she will be rescued, even if she is a little injured, or she has lost her memory, and she will not be able to come to me for a short time......"
Zhixue's heart tightened, and she wanted to comfort him, but how to comfort him with this kind of thing?
She couldn't think of her own words for a while, so she had to say calmly: "Maybe your sister is as bad as me, and she can't come back for the time being." You're so kind, your sister will be fine. ”
Zhi Yu looked at his hands and said calmly: "I can't remember how much blood is stained on these hands." Where is there still a delusional belief that there will be a good fortune for Rausch. Dead is dead, so I won't deceive myself and dare not face it like a coward. When we are killers, the biggest taboo is to have care, but now that I don't care, I feel stronger than before. ”
Zhixue was stunned for a moment, and then smiled awkwardly. "Speaking of which, you saved me, and I haven't officially thanked you yet. ”
"I said don't thank me, you were seriously injured at that time, and it was Gongzi who arranged for someone to save you, and used the most precious medicinal materials to save your life. Our lives belong to the son, if you insist on thanking him, then serve the son faithfully. "He said that he was serving Childe, not serving Childe, perhaps he already had a rough definition of their affairs in his heart.
Looking at Zhi Xue's stunned appearance, Zhi Yu knew that he had said something that he shouldn't say: "Today is my sister's death day, I don't have a confidant, I have said so much nonsense to you, I have added trouble to you, and I have offended." ”
"No! I'm glad you can consider me a confidant. No matter how heavy the story is, it means that you have come out, the years are long, the days are still long, and the food is very fragrant!" Ori Xue smiled playfully, filling her pale face with a hint of ruddy.
The corners of Zhiyu's mouth grinned, and he smiled. "It's the happiest thing to be able to talk to you!"
He was about to say something, when he suddenly noticed a familiar aura wandering nearby, and when he looked closely, he knew who the man was. Zhi Yu immediately stood up and said, "You can sleep again! Rest a lot and recuperate, I'll go out to practice." With that, he hurried out and closed the door.
Zhixue is indeed very weak, and just now she has been holding on to her spirit and talking to Zhiyu for so long, and she is really even weaker.
Lie down slowly, but I can't sleep for a long time. She looked at the flickering candlelight on the table, which was a little dazzling, and she wanted to blow it out but was weak. She tried to exercise, gathered her strength in her right hand, and swung it hard. I thought that I should be able to extinguish the candle, but I didn't expect the candle to be cut off at the waist, and even the candlestick was overturned.
Zhi Xue was shocked, looking at her hands and being very stunned, when did her internal strength become so powerful?
The candle flame went out, revealing a figure projected on the window. The oil-paper cloth window is not easy to be contaminated with dust, and the shadow will naturally be clearly visible.
"Childe?" Zhixue called out softly in confusion.
The purple shadow outside the window heard the sound of weaving snow, and panicked. I didn't know what the hell I had hit, and when I learned that she woke up, I hurried here, but I found Zhiyu by her side, and I wanted to know if she was seriously injured, so I hid outside the window and did something to listen to the corner.
Now that he was discovered, he simply jumped through the window and jumped in. When he saw the candlestick on the table broken in two, he took a piece of candle that had fallen to the side and lit it with flint.
Although Zhi Xue was surprised, she still sat up slowly and quietly, wanting to get out of bed and salute.
"You're hurt, you don't have to. Ziying's faint tone was very gentle, he found a wooden stool and sat down, looking at the simple furnishings in the room, and did not intend to stir up any topics.
"What do you command? Zhixue was very useful for his relatively gentle tone.
After all, he is usually like a proud peacock who looks down on anything. No one would really rejoice in that unbeaten appearance. He is also ruthless and domineering towards his subordinates, but he has a noble bloodline and a prominent family background, and no one dares to disagree.
can be so kind and pleasant, gentle and delicate to speak to a subordinate, Zhixue feels that she is definitely the first!
And he looked like he had fallen asleep, his open cloak revealing the silk pajamas inside. also took off her heavy makeup to reveal her handsome face, but she was like a thief, and secretly looked at it twice.
"You...... Are you feeling better?" asked Purple Shadow softly.
He didn't have any explanation for what had happened before, and when everyone suspected that he was going to kill this woman, he still waved his hands at her quietly. If he had to say anything, I'm afraid he could only say that he didn't want this woman with a bit of freshness to be so weak and vulnerable.
Zhixue replied, "Zhiyu has taken good care of it, and it is already much better. "Weaving Rain is also under his orders to take care of himself, after all, every shadow guard has a task every day. A first-class shadow guard like Zhiyu to take care of her is really overkill.
Suddenly, both of them didn't know what to say, and they were so embarrassed.
A gust of wind blew outside the window, and the temperature in the room gradually rose, as if there was an indescribable atmosphere quietly fermenting.
Ziying looked at Zhixue's face pale, and her tone was very weak. It seems that she will have to recuperate for a while before she can get used to the internal strength she has passed on to her.
"Why is Childe merciful?" After being silent for a long time, Zhixue couldn't help but ask. This was just a guess in her heart, and at that time she thought that she was going to die, but she didn't expect that her internal strength had risen greatly, and no one except Gongzi could have such a skill.
“......”
Ziying was speechless when asked, at that time, it was to see her suffer from being tortured by bone shaping water, Xu was pitying Xiang Xiang and cherishing jade, and he passed on twenty percent of the internal force to her to resist the pain of bone shaping water.
Then, it was the light emitted by her white clothes, her beautiful face without powder, and her appearance of not eating fireworks in the world, which lingered in his heart.
"I've already said that you are my shadow guard, you can't refute my face, let the world laugh at me for carrying a mediocre person!" Purple Shadow's explanation was a little prevaricating, the expression on his face seemed to be extremely casual, but he was faintly uneasy in his heart, feeling as if he had said the wrong thing.
Zhixue looked at him with an indifferent appearance, and felt an indescribable weird feeling in his heart, and he was really blocked by an invisible wall. blurted out in a stiff tone: "The subordinates must swear to the death and live up to the expectations of the son!"
She even began to say something wrong!
The atmosphere became inexplicably depressing, the wind outside the window stopped, and it was very quiet all around, and almost the other party's heartbeat could be heard.
Seeing her so politely vowed, Ziying clearly distanced the identities between the two of them, appearing deliberate and distant. There was a sudden irritability in my heart, "That's it, you have a good rest." ”
Turning around, he walked out of the door, but unexpectedly, the whole hull shook violently, and if he hadn't held on to the door frame in time, he almost fell.
Weaving Xue sitting on the wooden bed had nothing to grasp, and she rolled to the ground with a muffled grunt of pain.
Ziying turned around and saw Zhixue struggling powerlessly on the ground, and hurriedly strode over to pick her up, but unexpectedly, the hull of the boat shook again, and Ziying did not stand firmly, and fell to the bed together with Zhixue, the cloak on his shoulders also fell to the ground, and the silk pajamas he was wearing opened his collar, revealing his strong chest.
The four eyes are facing each other, and the breath is staggered.
Zhixue was already blushing, but she didn't have the strength to push him away.
The beauty is hugging, but the distance between the two is very close, if you don't do something, wouldn't you live up to God's arrangement? The faint fragrance on Zhixue's body was filled with the smell of the purple shadow, which overwhelmed his brain, and he couldn't help but lower his head with soft eyes and gentle movements, as if he wanted to kiss Fangze.
Zhi Xue looked at the purple shadow that was gradually approaching, and the whole person panicked, but when she looked directly into his eyes, she felt as if she was being suppressed by him, and she was at his mercy.
"Childe, the ship has hit the rocks!" Huo Wu, who was standing outside the door, looked at the two people in the room, their movements were ambiguous, and the atmosphere was sweet. The futon and Childe's cloak scattered on the ground, as well as his half-exposed chest, seemed to indicate that the two of them were engaged in something indescribable.
Huo Wu's left chest suddenly throbbed violently, and she understood all this at a glance.
She often saw this scene when she went out on missions in the past, and some of them were even more disheveled and unsightly. She understands that this is a human emotion that expresses mutual affection. She doesn't know what it's like to love someone, she's an emotionless charm herself. has been with her son for many years, in addition to her loyalty to her orders, she also wants to spare no effort to please her son.
But Childe has never been as close to himself as he is with Zhixue, he just looked at her eyes, it was an emotion that she couldn't understand!
Purple Shadow heard the sound of fire dancing and immediately stood up in a panic. He picked up the cloak on the ground and put it back on, straightened his clothes, and said, "Take me to see it." With that, he strode out.
Huo Wu had never seen Childe so embarrassed, and when she looked back at Oriyuki, who was crimson, her chest seemed to be stuffed with something.
Zhixue was even more embarrassed, she pulled the corner of the quilt on the ground, and quickly pulled it up to cover her head.
She could feel her hot cheeks and her flustered heartbeat, and her mind was full of Purple Shadow's gentle approach to herself, so close that she could see his pupils. And the mesmerizing fragrance on his body, and the indulgent look in his eyes......
This prodigal son!
