Fourteen.

It was late at night, and I stared at the hazy moonlight through the paper window, tossing and turning in bed.

When discussing how to rest tonight, the Taoist priests of Chunyang felt sorry for me as a girl, and unanimously decided to divide the part of this room for me to sleep in, and the injured Ming Shique continued to rest in the inner room, and Su Yanqing proposed that he sleep in the courtyard tonight, so that he could observe the outside dynamics at any time, and as for the others, they had to make do with sleeping in the main hall.

Even though I was getting the best treatment, for some reason I was so distraught that I couldn't sleep.

As the days went by and the moon was setting outside the window, I thought to myself, since I hadn't been able to sleep that night, I should get up and go outside, so I sat up, put on a piece of yarn and pushed out through the side door.

This room is located in a dense bamboo forest, and the dew on the bamboo leaves is slightly cool, adding a little chill to the already lonely and solemn night, I can't help but shiver, subconsciously wrap the yarn, find an open space to sit down, and stark at the starry sky in a daze.

"Haven't slept yet?"

Just as I was staring at the sky, there was the sound of footsteps behind me, and a calm, familiar voice pulled me back to my senses.

I turned my head in a daze, and found that Ming Shique was standing behind me and watching me, at this time, he changed his cold-blooded ruthlessness during the day today, and there was a trace of kindness in his eyebrows.

I didn't answer him, but turned back in anger and continued to enjoy the night view on my own.

It's a pity that it's only three seconds handsome, and the night breeze blows slightly, and I still can't resist the cold and sneezes.

Before I could react, the familiar crane fell lightly onto my shoulder.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, and you're still so rough. Ming Shique walked up to me, dusted off the dust on the clearing, and naturally sat down next to me.

He was so close that I could feel the warmth of his body, and the freshness that was unique to him. Seeing this, I immediately deliberately moved away and kept a certain distance from him, what kind of medicine did this guy take wrong, one set during the day and one set at night.

Ming Shique found out that I was deliberately avoiding him, so he stopped approaching and looked at me quietly.

I was really uncomfortable staring at me like this, so I had to open my mouth to break the silence:

"Look at it, if your boss knows that you look at a demon like this, you won't be dead. ”

"You're still mad at me?"

"I ——" I turned my head angrily to look at Ming Shique, and I wanted to scold him again for what I hadn't finished during the day, but thinking that it was night, yelling and yelling would make others rest, so I swallowed the complaint and replaced it with a casual denial.

"I, Bai Xia Ying, am not the kind of villain who must be compared, for people like you who turn their faces faster than turning books, I have never looked at them. ”

As I spoke, I glanced at Ming Shique to see his reaction, and found that he was unmoved, still sitting there, the starlight outlining his angular face, so cold that I couldn't see a trace of emotion.

I have always felt that Ming Shique is suppressing himself, I don't know what he has encountered, in short, he is too calm and rational in his encounters, so that he almost ignores the true feelings in his heart.

Probably because he has been pinned on high hopes since he was a child, he was cultivated as the heir of the head, and he was told that he had no desire and no desire in order to attain immortality as soon as possible, thinking about it this way, I still feel sorry for him.

"I'm sorry. Ming Shique actually spoke:

"I would have been glad to see you again today, but ...... It's just that it's too dangerous here now, I thought that if I drove you away, you wouldn't have to accompany me in danger anymore, but I didn't expect you to come back......"

Ming Shique's tone gradually softened, and I could hear that he wasn't trying to justify anything by saying this, he just wanted to find someone to talk to, to tell those emotions that were hidden in his heart that were about to be hidden.

I didn't interrupt him, but chose to be quiet and listen to him continue.

"Little demon, do you know, when I was in Jianghuai Town, you entered the Flower Pavilion for me alone, but I failed to protect you well, and let you face fierce opponents again and again, even in Bohou Mansion. Ming Shique's expression changed slightly, slightly bitter, whether he was blaming himself or apologizing, I have no way to verify.

"My attitude during the day is too resolute, but I just want you to go back, after all, the Demon King has the ability to protect you, and I'm just a person who can't protect myself now. ”

I saw him sinking deeper and deeper into the whirlpool of self-blame, and quickly patted him on the shoulder to make him realize that I was still beside him, and he looked up at me with a cloudy gaze.

This is the first time I have seen such a Ming Shiqing, he finally took off his armor on this night, revealing a soft and weak side, I am very glad that he is willing to believe in me and show me this side of himself. I smiled softly, trying to liven up the heavy atmosphere at the moment.

"Hehe-hee, I said that adults don't remember villains, so you don't have to apologize to me so sincerely~" I pulled down my eyelids with my fingers and made a grimace from his expression, "If I go and tell those juniors and disciples that their cousins are crying at my place tonight, do you think they will roll on the ground with laughter?!! hahahahaha"

I imagined a funny picture while talking, holding my stomach and laughing, Ming Shique on the side raised his eyebrows angrily and funny when he heard it, shook his head again and again and sighed: "Little demon, you dare?"

I put on a confident posture, thinking that Ming Shique would not do anything to me, so I shook my head at him defiantly and said, "I dare, why don't I dare? I'll go and say when it's dawn, you can treat me-"

I was halfway through the excitement of speaking, I felt a hand grasp my waist, I was hugged into Ming Shique's arms, instantly tender, I was shocked by this sudden action, but soon reacted, quietly feeling this lonely feeling, not noisy or noisy.

There was a fast and powerful heartbeat in my ears, and the man holding me was very tight, and I could feel that he wanted to hold me as tight as possible, but he was afraid of hurting me, so he had to stiffen his body clumsily.

Originally, I wanted to maintain this state for a while, but when I thought about it, Ming Shi and I were at most a friend and confidant, and now I just came to comfort him when I saw him sad, and I felt embarrassed to hold him like this, so I moved cautiously to break free.

Unexpectedly, Ming Shique didn't let go of me, but hugged me tightly, his ears were filled with his tight snort, and I began to beat faster and didn't know what to do.

"That...... Stinky Taoist, if it goes on like this, it will be seen by others at dawn, and there will be misunderstanding......"

"No one gets me wrong. Ming Shi's words revealed a rare tenderness:

"Please, that's all, just today, just let me hold it for a while. ”
