Chapter Seventy-Eight: Nightfall

Ruoxi was silent for a while, and finally seemed to have made up some kind of determination, raised his head to look at Ye Dong, and then nodded.

"I am an orphan who has lived with traffickers since I was a child, and two years ago, the traffickers sold me to the Chu family. ”

Ye Dong looked at her with pity and said, "You must have suffered a lot over the years, right?"

Ruoxi said lightly: "That trafficker often beats me, he also wants to make me crippled, and then go out to beg to win people's sympathy, and then an accomplice told him that he can't cripple me, see that I look good, and want me to grow up and go out to pick up customers, or sell directly to Qinglou and a certain big family." ”

Although her tone sounded very calm at this time, she was obviously trying her best to hide it, but Ye Dong still heard some emotional fluctuations from it.

Others may not be able to detect it, but Ye Dong can feel that for people who have experienced that kind of thing, although the wounds on their bodies may scab over and no longer bleed, or even heal completely, the wounds in their hearts will never be erased and entangled for a lifetime.

"You're still young, and the days ahead are long. Ye Dong said, "Forget about those unpleasant experiences and bad memories." ”

For a moment, Ruoxi seemed to understand something, and her face suddenly showed that sudden joy, and said, "Childe, you can understand my feelings." ”

"You drink it too, this tea tastes good. Ye Dong picked up the teacup and took a sip, "I'm sorry, it reminds you of the sad past." ”

"It's fine. Ruoxi shook his head, smiling with tears, "It is the greatest luck in Ruoxi's life to meet Childe." ”

"The reason why I like to drink tea is that the tea leaves are soaked in hot water to bring out their color and taste. Ye Dongpin smashed the sip of tea just now, "There is sweetness in bitterness, and bitterness in sweetness, which can make people feel energetic and calm." ”

"There are many truths that can be understood. Ruoxi added with a smile.

The master and servant looked completely happy, but Ye Dong did not treat Ruoxi as a subordinate, but treated her as a sister.

The two chatted without a word, and before they knew it, night was falling and it was getting late.

"It's a pity. Ye Dong stood up from the recliner and called out with pity.

"Huh?"

"Would you like to see the stars?"

"Yes. "I rejoiced.

"I'll show you. ”

"Okay. "I'm so excited.

Ye Dong didn't take Ruoxi up the stairs, but directly carried her and flew up to the roof from the outside.

Feeling the temperature of Ye Dong's chest, listening to each other's heartbeats, and blowing the cool breeze, it seems that even this night has become so gentle.

If you raise your head and look at Ye Dong, at this moment, it seems that it has been a lifetime.

This feeling is probably the so-called breathing and sharing fate.

Ruoxi happily wanted to shout loudly, but she was afraid that as soon as she screamed, all this in front of her would dissipate like a dream.

At this time, Ye Dong's voice came from her ears: "Okay, we're here." ”

She was a little reluctant to let go, closed her eyes and thought about it, then let go of her hand and walked out of Ye Dong's embrace.

Ye Dong sat on the roof, patted his left side with his hand, and motioned for Ruo Xi to sit down.

"The moonlight is so beautiful tonight," exclaimed Ruoxi, "and the stars in the sky are bright." ”

Ye Dong sat for a while, then simply lay down, made pillows with his hands, held his head, and said, "Yes, I haven't seen such a beautiful night for a long time." ”

Ruo Xi looked at Ye Dong beside him, and a thought sprouted in his mind, I don't know what he looks like.

Immediately, while looking at the starry sky, imagining Ye Dong's handsome face, he couldn't help but smile.

"It's a pity," Ye Dong touched the grunt that popped out of his head, and said, "Can you promise me one thing?"

Ruo Xi was a little curious, and hurriedly said: "If the son has anything to do, just tell me." ”

"Don't tell the grunts, okay?"

Ruoxi didn't think much about it, and said, "I won't say it."

"Don't tell anyone," Ye Dong said in a solemn tone, "Including Master Chu and Young Master Chu." ”

Ruoxi was stunned, but finally nodded and said, "Hmm." ”

......

I don't know how long it took for the stars to dim and the full moon to set in the west.

If it is a pity that she fell asleep unconsciously, Ye Dong originally told her to go to sleep first, but she insisted on accompanying Ye Dong for a while, and Ye Dong could not help her.

She breathes evenly, has a sweet face, and is like a quiet kitten when she falls asleep.

Ye Dong swept off the roof with Ruoxi, carried her into the room, and gently placed her on the bed.

In the dark, Ye Dong's eyes seemed to glow, he covered the quilt for Ruoxi, looked at her quietly, and after a while, he walked out.

As soon as he walked out, Ruoxi slowly opened his eyes and hugged the quilt on his chest tightly, the quilt was gradually wet with her tears, and the room was silent.

After Ye Dong walked out, he suddenly seemed to notice something, his face gradually became solemn, and he quickly swept towards the woods at the back of the house.

The leaves of the trees in the forest swayed and rustled in the wind.

After going deep into the woods, Ye Dong stopped.

"Are you here this time to avenge the Li family's father and son and kill me?" Ye Dong suddenly asked into the dark depths ahead.

The strange thing is that there is really a voice in it, and it replied: "I have long been tired of seeing that father and son, and I am disgusting to death, but I can't kill them by myself against the rules, you are crooked, but you have done a good thing for me." ”

Ye Dongdao: "Then what do you want to do here?"

As the sound of footsteps sounded, a vague figure took a few steps closer to Ye Dong's side.

"I'm here to tell you something. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Relax," Dark Shadow said, "it's not a bad thing for you or me. ”

"I don't like to be verbose. ”

"Haha, you kid is really refreshing enough, to my liking. The Shadow laughed, "Have you ever heard of Nightfall?"

Ye Dong frowned and thought for a while, then said, "Night?"

"It's a huge, mysterious organization. The black shadow said, "Actually, the Li family can have a reputation and status in Lizhou because there is a night behind it. ”

When Ye Dong heard this, he already understood, and said, "You are the person of the night?"

The dark shadow said: "This is a very important secret, do you know why I want to tell you?"

"It's none of me, and I don't want to know. Ye Dong turned around and prepared to walk outside.

"There is such a person in the world who is as uncurious as you. The black shadow couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "In the Li family, you and I fought, after you showed your strength, I could have killed you, but I didn't." ”

"Because, I have a crush on you. "The black shadow is not shocking, and the death is endless.
