It wasn't until three o'clock in the morning that the two of them walked out of the room.
Jiang Bai's breathing has calmed down, but Hu Tao's face is still red.
But if you look closely, their lips are a bit swollen.
"You go and eat by yourself, I'm going to freshen up."
Hutao turned over and climbed back from the wall to his yard.
Jiang Bai sat on the steps at the door, looking at Hu Tao's back and smirking.
Hehe, from now on I can hold hands with the hall master openly.
When Hu Tao left, Jiang Bai was giggling. When she came back from washing up, Jiang Bai was still giggling.
She changed into a black skirt dotted with red plums. The skirt reached to her knees. It was not cumbersome, but very delicate.
Long socks wrapped around her calves, and her feet were wearing a pair of small leather shoes.
Her long hair was tied with two red bows, hanging casually behind her ears.
Hu Tao walked up to him and waved her hand in front of his eyes.
"Why are you still here?"
Jiang Bai stretched out his hand and blinked, "Master, I want to hold hands."
Hu Tao blushed and didn't hold him back.
"Don't even look at how long it's been since you washed up. Go clean it up quickly."
Jiang Bai is still wearing the same clothes he wore under the abyss. Fortunately, he had been in a coma before, otherwise his clothes would have stunk.
"Just ten minutes, wait for my hall master!"
Jiang Baima sneaked to the bathroom, turning on the faucet and flushing it, regardless of whether there was hot water or not.
Ten minutes later, he changed into clean clothes and walked out with wet hair.
"Hand in hand!" He looked at Hutao expectantly.
Hu Tao took his hand and the two walked out hand in hand.
Walking out of the yard, Jiang Bai deliberately walked to a crowded place.
Seeing them holding hands, all the ceremony attendants in the Hall of Purity stopped along the way.
Their gazes were a little startled, but not too surprising.
Everyone in the Rebirth Hall knows that since Jiang Bai came to the Rebirth Hall, there has been a tail behind Hu Tao.
The two of them stayed together every day, and it was only a matter of time before they reached this point.
Of course, not all eyes are friendly.
Most of the old people in the Rebirth Hall grew up watching Hu Tao, no different from watching their own daughters.
At this time, when he saw Jiang Bai holding Hu Tao's hand, his murderous gaze immediately came over him.
Among them is Uncle Ge, who has always been very good to Jiang Bai.
"Jiang Bai, you're awake."
Uncle Ge looked at Jiang Baipi and smiled.
Under the eyes of these elders, Jiang Bai felt his scalp was a little numb, but he still held Hu Tao's hand.
"Hmm, Uncle Ge, what's good to eat today?"
"See for yourself, why are you asking me for such a thing?" After speaking, Uncle Ge went to work in the kitchen, leaving only his back.
Jiang Bai was not embarrassed and took Hu Tao to get food.
While the two were eating, a steward finally couldn't help but come over.
"Master, what are you doing?"
"Come on, Hall Master -" Jiang Bai picked up a piece of peeled shrimp and put it to Hu Tao's mouth.
Hutao opened his mouth and bit down naturally.
Jiang Bai stood close to Hu Tao, raised his head, and looked distressed.
"I originally wanted to keep a low profile, but alas, it seems I'm destined to lose a low profile. Yes, you read that right, it's what you think."
The steward: "..."
He really deserves a beating, I really want to beat him.
Not to mention that the hostesses felt that he deserved a beating, Hu Tao also felt that he deserved a beating.
Hu Tao's gaze swept over, and Jiang Bai suddenly shrank his neck and returned to seriousness.
"Come on, Master, have another one."
After eating, Jiang Bai took Hu Tao and walked to Zhongli's courtyard.
Since the fact that they were together was going to be told to the world, of course Zhongli couldn't be left out.
Zhong Li's eyes fell on the hands held by the two of them. There was no expression on them, but Jiang Bai felt the fatal danger.
Jiang Bai quickly changed the topic, "Master, I'm awake!"
"Yeah." Zhongli hummed in a neutral tone.
"A friend invited me to have tea, you can do whatever you want."
With that said, Zhongli walked out with his hands behind his back.
Obviously don't want to see him.
Hu Tao rolled her eyes at Jiang Bai, "Be careful one day you get slapped with a sack."
This desultory look deserves as much beating as it deserves.
"Hey, who can put a sack on me?"
Jiang Bai was not afraid at all.
Unless Zhongli personally educates him, no one in Liyue can be his opponent.
"Oh, is it so."
Hu Tao took out a sack from nowhere and put it directly on his head.
"How about it?"
Jiang Bai, who took off the sack, shook his walnut arm and said coquettishly, "I'm talking about others, of course not including the hall master..."
"Come on, they're all worried about you. Now that you're awake, go out for a walk."
"Is a fight coming?"
Jiang Bai suddenly realized that he only now paid attention to the message Hu Tao sent him before.
"Where are they?"
"You're staying at an inn. When we went underground to look for you with us, Idou was injured."
Hu Tao didn't say that it was Jiang Bai's phantom that cut Yidou. There was no point in saying it. Instead, it only added to Jiang Bai's psychological burden.
The two of them walked towards the inn where Yidou was staying. As they walked, Jiang Bai asked about what happened underground.
He had gone to an upside-down palace before and lost consciousness not long after.
When he wakes up again, he will be in his room.
"There has been no news about you before, so I was a little worried. So I took the old man with me and went to the Juyuan to look for you. Then Yidou and A-Nin followed, and met Kong, Yelan, and Paimon..."
"It turned out that my hunch was indeed correct. Something really happened to you." Hutao put his hands on his hips.
If she hadn't had a bad premonition and went looking for him, this guy would have been frozen in there forever. God knows whether he would have survived if he had been frozen for too long.
"Speaking of which, you haven't told me what happened to you?"
Jiang Bai scratched his head, "It's nothing. I just entered the palace and felt a little pain in my head, and then I lost consciousness..."
He didn't tell Hu Tao what the voice said. It didn't make sense to say these things.
Moreover, the authenticity of the other party's words is also doubtful.
Maybe it was just to stimulate him and cause him to have mood swings, causing him to fall into a coma.
Judging from the results, this obviously works very well. If Hu Tao and the others hadn't come to find him, he would probably have been sealed inside.
"Your memories should all be restored."
Jiang Bai was a little surprised, "How do you know, Hall Master?"
"That space can reflect some fragments of a person's heart and allow people to see what they want to see most. I saw some shadows of your past there."
"Ah?" Jiang Bai touched his face nervously.
"It can't be something bad."
Don't let his image of being tall, mighty, handsome and unrestrained as a jade tree in the wind be ruined.
Seeing his nervous look, Hu Tao raised his lips and said, "Nothing, just ragged and half-dead, nothing shameful."
The holiday is over, I catch the train in the evening and leave my hometown to go back to work ('-ω)
