The wind calmed down, and the fluttering curtains finally lost their strength to struggle, closing the last ray of light, and Xiao Yichen's face sank into the gloom.
Shen Nanbao couldn't tell his emotions, so he endured the sourness on the tip of his nose and said as calmly as possible: "Excuse me, Commander-in-Chief, for being so generous."
She picked up her clothes and was about to leave, but the force on Hao's wrist tightened, like a stone hitting her heart. Xiao Yichen's miserable voice followed closely, "Fifth girl, do I want to eat people? You want to do this?" Avoid me?"
In fact, when people reach a certain age, they will understand a lot of worldly things. They no longer have to worry about money and money, ask questions clearly about everything, and always keep half-hidden things, and everyone will understand them. This way, they can also avoid breaking up. Fall into a situation where we will never interact with each other until old age and death.
Shen Nanbao thought that Xiao Yichen would be like this. After all, he had been working with the same official family and officials for many years, and his behavior must be clear-cut and well-rounded. He didn't expect that he would be so reckless in pursuing her. beat.
Whether he ignores her or pursues her fiercely, he can do it, but she can't.
After all, she doesn't have his fearsome reputation, nor does she have the ability to cover the sky with one hand.
So Shen Nanbao pursed his lips and prevaricated him in a very high-sounding way, "Commander, you are so majestic and majestic. You are so majestic. You are not allowed to tremble when anyone comes near you? Not to mention a little lady like me?"
Ah.
So well said.
A dignified commander.
His majestic commander turned out to be a little lady whose heart couldn't be warmed up. If word spread, the brothers under him might not know how to laugh when they hear it!
Xiao Yichen chuckled lightly, "I won't talk about the past in Shen Mansion, but now it's like this after leaving Shen Mansion... Fifth Miss, do you like to beat around the bush so much?"
There was a bit of contempt in the frost-stained eyebrows, and Shen Nanbao could clearly feel it even without the help of light.
In fact, she never cared about what others thought of her. Whether they despised or disliked her, or said she was cold-hearted or heartless, or that she was cruel and scheming, she ignored them all. Just pass it.
After all, no one is herself, how can they understand her difficulties personally.
But at this moment, I don’t know why, but I feel a little grievance and a little angry in my heart...
It seemed, as if he should understand her and understand her difficulties.
Why?
Why?
The sudden question made her stunned for a moment.
The firm warmth of his fingertips continuously came from Hao's wrist, so firm that it seemed to be burned into her heart.
She suddenly began to realize and feel the strange yet familiar feeling, a crushing, moth-like emotion, like an endless stream of water, rushing up in one breath and suffocating her.
She shivered uncontrollably and felt cold all over.
Xiao Yichen noticed something strange about her and thought he was exaggerating. He explained anxiously, "I...I didn't mean that, I just..."
He is such a self-possessed person on weekdays. Even under the pressure of God, he remains as motionless as a mountain, but now he is so hurried that he looks like a dazed boy.
But such an action fell into Shen Nanbao's eyes, as if he had fallen into a brick, and he couldn't help but burst into tears. She endured it and interrupted: "Commander, I know what you mean. You don't have to be like this. I How old are you, yet you still don’t know what kind of person you are?”
She suddenly smacked her lips and tried to raise the corners of her mouth, but the heavy emotions weighed on her, making her smile distorted and ugly.
Such a dim state of mind made her expressions blurry, making it difficult for people to see clearly and making it easy for her to get away with things.
But her expression was okay, and her voice, which was still trembling slightly even though she was trying her best to restrain herself, still revealed her emotions.
Xiao Yichen could hear it, and he regretted more and more why he was so angry that he said such words without thinking. Suddenly, discouraged, overwhelming, he sighed and said softly, " Fifth girl, I just think that you are still young, so you can cry when you need to cry, laugh when you need to laugh, and you don’t have to think so much about some things..."
The slender figure in the shadow was obviously startled, and he muttered, "Commander, are there some things we can choose?"
He wanted to say yes, as long as you become my wife, your mother's hatred, your mother's innocence, everything can be easily solved.
But the words were stuck in my throat and I couldn't say them out.
Because he knew very well how she would answer, just like last time, she tried her best to treat his words as a joke.
Just like countless times, she retreated from herself.
However, he has done it so many times, has she really never been tempted?
Not even a tiny bit?
His eagerness reached its peak at this moment, and he couldn't help but speak, "Fifth girl, I want to ask you one more question."
Shen Nanbao didn't look back. His body as tall as a willow contained the coldest and most decisive attitude in the world, which could drive people into tongue-tied plows and cut off all words.
But, even so, he still wanted to ask, and asked again with that worried heart, "Why did you say that on the dragon boat day."
'I'm here to renew the life of the palace commander'.
There was a loud bang as if thunder was struck in my brain.
Shen Nanbao seemed to hear the sound of the pretentious city wall collapsing. She heard the person behind her ask carefully with the warmth she longed for: "Fifth girl, tell me, why?"
Why?
Because the love that came from nowhere thrived in the days when she ignored it, and grew higher and higher like a spring in the time when she kept suppressing it.
So much so that she couldn't help but feel for him.
Because she feels sorry for him.
Shen Nanbao closed his eyes deeply and sighed, "Commander, that's just a saying that people who wear longevity threads say, it doesn't mean anything."
Therefore, she doesn't like him at all.
Xiao Yichen fell silent, trapped in the abyss of frustration and full of confusion.
As for Shen Nanbao, he turned around, quietly tucked his hot eyes, and sniffed to retreat.
This time Xiao Yichen stopped stopping her, and the hand that was tightly clinging to her wrist finally realized that it was time to give up, so he relaxed.
The tense string in her heart broke in an instant, plunging her into a bottomless abyss. She got out of the sedan as she wished. The moment the curtain opened, the dazzling skylight covered her face, illuminating her. .
Fengyue followed behind and when she heard a slight noise, she turned her head and her eyes widened when she saw Shen Nanbao's messed up face.
Xiao Yichen, who was behind him, regained his former unruly and arrogant attitude in that dark world, "I understand."
As if to save his respect, and as if to make a promise, he said again: "I will never bother Miss Fifth again in the future."
Hearing a soft sound, Shen Nanbao was startled, and he replied belatedly: "Thank you, Commander-in-Chief, for your consideration."
She said these words and walked away lightly, just like the falling dead leaves, which reflected in people's eyes, but had no weight at all.
Not only now, but also from now on, she will be an insignificant person to him.
He will have someone to love again, and he will regain such love again.
And she, in the quagmire of hatred and the abyss of her past life, wallowed in and struggled all the time until the moment of healing.
Fengyue looked at her sitting there, with a withered eyebrow and dried tears on her cheeks. She couldn't help but said, "Sister, you... why did you say that."
That's all in the past, sister has no intention, and to Uncle Xie, it's just that she missed someone she didn't love.
Now, my sister is obviously happy to give orders. Since she is happy, why not take advantage of it.
Is it because of Gu Xiaoniang?
Feng Yue was startled and said hurriedly: "Sister, I followed your instructions and returned to the Zhao Mansion. The old lady and the others said..."
There was a tapping sound outside the sedan, and it was the attendant who was following closely behind who asked: "Sister, I would like to ask how long it will take for my sister to set off."
Shen Nanbao came back to his senses, wiped his face carelessly, and rubbed out the calm and elegant expression on his face. Then he opened the car curtain and looked at the person coming, "We'll wait until the handlebars come back." Let’s set off.”
As soon as she said this, Fengyue seemed to have come back to her senses and said in surprise: "Why hasn't Handlebar come back yet? Sister, Handlebar went to fetch water for you when you fainted."
A bad premonition came to mind.
Shen Nanbao frowned weakly and ordered the people outside the sedan, "Tell the others to go to the riverside to find the handlebars."
"What should I do if I can't find it?"
Feng Yue vaguely touched something and asked this question anxiously.
Shen Nanbao's face darkened, and he glanced at the servant, "If you can't find it... just check it out, abandon the sedan and leave."
The servants don't understand why Shen Nanbao and the others think that the handlebar style cannot be returned. It's just a matter of getting water. Isn't it possible that their lives are in danger?
Just as Shen Nanbao and the others were worried, they searched everywhere but could not find any trace of the handlebar type. And because the sun was going down, they were afraid of sleeping on the street if they didn't hurry. So they packed the luggage compartments again and got an empty one. After getting out of the sedan chair, he raised his whip and set off again.
Without the help of the handlebars and the fact that Shen Nanbao no longer had to pick and choose water, the journey was smooth sailing. Therefore, on the fourth day, the group finally arrived at Jinling and Jing'an Temple. .
Because it is located on a hill, hidden behind a bamboo forest, it is extremely quiet. Occasionally, one or two solitary swans fly by, leaving one or two cries, and the only sound is the flapping of wings.
Shen Nanbao stood at the door of the temple. A few weeping willows hung in front of the door, and a few wisps of green grass lay on the steps. It felt soothing even without the wind.
Fengyue looked at it and muttered: "It's not as shabby as I thought."
"After all, it's a temple built by my family. It's too shabby and disrespectful. Don't say that. Just knock on the door first. I heard there are a few monks in the temple."
Just as Shen Nanbao was giving these instructions, a path jumped out and scratched people's ears, "Who is blocking the way at the door?"
Shen Nanbao turned his head and saw a young lady dressed in pure clothes, with a silk ribbon tied around her waist. Her face was as bright and bright as a moon disk. She should have a dignified face, but she had extremely slender eyes. As she glanced at her, Just a knife thrown at him.
