It's quiet at night.
Luo Qingzhou lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
The little girl in her arms was already fast asleep.
After killing the two ghost slaves, he couldn't calm down.
If he hadn't happened to read those books and cultivated the spirit, he might never have known for the rest of his life that there were such sneaky things in the dark night.
The mystery and complexity of this world were obviously beyond his expectation.
In addition to mortals, warriors, and powerful soul cultivators.
In addition to monsters, ghosts, and various ghosts.
If he had been like before and only thought about studying and getting ahead, I'm afraid he would have turned into a cold corpse by now.
The eldest lady will definitely not give up.
But he didn't understand, now that he had left the Chengguo Mansion and married into the Qin Mansion, he would no longer pose any threat to her son's things, so why did the other party insist on putting him to death.
Is it just to take that breath?
Or... is it because of this marriage that they single-handedly led?
Thinking about her behavior when she returned home, Luo Yu's eyes that day, and Luo Yu's attitude later, Luo Qingzhou felt that his guess was correct.
Otherwise, there is really no need for her to spend so much effort and financial resources to deal with him, who she has always considered to be an ant-like little person.
Her son suddenly regretted it when he saw Miss Qin's beauty and Xia Chan's strength.
She also regretted it.
Then……
No one can get the good things her son can't get.
Especially him, who she had always thought was a little bastard who should live in the mud all his life and be trampled by everyone.
How does he have the right to enjoy what should belong to her son?
He doesn't deserve it.
He didn't even think about it.
However, they were too clever and self-defeating, allowing him to get...
Also, her son is currently preparing for the exam. If he is really worried about this marriage, then...
Therefore, she will use all possible methods to completely destroy him.
If he didn't die, I'm afraid her precious son would continue to suffer.
"call……"
The north wind whimpered outside the window, and the snow seemed to have stopped.
Luo Qingzhou was thinking wildly, not feeling sleepy at all.
I lay on the bed for a while, feeling really uncomfortable.
He carefully got up from the bed, helped the little girl put on the quilt, put on her coat, went over to open the window, and looked outside.
The snow has indeed stopped.
A wave of cold air hit him, falling on his face and neck, and there was a hint of coldness, making him more awake.
Um?
He suddenly focused his gaze and looked under the pear tree in the courtyard.
There was a figure standing there!
Wearing a light green dress, with black hair reaching her waist, she was slender and cold, with her arms folded across her chest and a sword in her arms, she stood there silently, motionless, like a statue.
Luo Qingzhou almost didn't notice.
What is she doing here in the middle of the night?
Don't you have a stomachache?
Luo Qingzhou was puzzled, hesitated, closed the window, put on his clothes, opened the door and walked out.
In the small courtyard, the wind is still very strong.
The girl under the pear tree turned sideways, with her face turned away, and looked away motionlessly, as if she didn't notice him coming out.
Luo Qingzhou walked closer, cupped his hands and said, "Miss Xia Chan, are you okay?"
The girl's pretty face was cold, and she still maintained the same posture as before, motionless and silent.
Luo Qingzhou looked up at her, thought for a moment, and said, "Miss Xia Chan can't sleep?"
The girl still didn't speak.
Seeing that her face was a little pale, Luo Qingzhou advised, "It's cold outside and Miss Xia Chan is not feeling well. It's better to go back quickly."
"snort!"
The girl finally spoke out, but she snorted coldly, still looking away with a pretty face.
Luo Qingzhou couldn't figure out what she was thinking, nor could he understand what was in her heart. Seeing the cold night wind, the girl's face became more and more ugly. After thinking about it, she turned around and went to the kitchen. He took out the stove from the corner and lit it. charcoal fire.
After a while, the fire started.
Luo Qingzhou shouted at the kitchen door: "Miss Xia Chan, if you can't sleep, come in and warm yourself up for a while. It's cold outside."
The girl still stood in the cold wind with her sword in her arms, her face cold and pretty, and she ignored him.
Luo Qingzhou came to his senses and said, "Miss Xia Chan, it's cold outside, please come in and warm yourself up for a while."
Anyway, I'm used to it.
Moreover, when he first returned home, this girl helped him vent his anger; when he went to Chengguo Mansion last time, this girl protected him.
The New Year is coming soon.
At that time, he and Miss Qin may have to go to Chengguo Mansion, and she will need her to accompany them.
Although this girl's character is not likeable, she is still quite useful.
So just follow her.
"snort!"
The girl snorted coldly and finally moved.
Luo Qingzhou quickly stepped aside and retreated into the kitchen.
The girl entered the kitchen, holding her sword and standing in front of the stove, still as cold as ice.
Luo Qingzhou moved a small bench and placed it behind her, saying: "Sit down, I'll get you a cup of hot water."
After saying that, he left the kitchen and went to the living room.
There is a stove in the living room to warm hot water.
Luo Qingzhou took the cup, poured a glass of water, and returned to the kitchen.
in the kitchen.
The girl had already sat down, still holding the sword, with a cold face. When she saw him coming in, she said goodbye with a pretty face and looked away.
Luo Qingzhou handed over the hot water in his hand and said: "Miss Xia Chan, drink...please drink the water."
The girl didn't answer.
Luo Qingzhou had no choice but to hold it by himself and stand beside him.
Um?
He suddenly saw another small bench placed next to the stove, an empty space away from her.
However, he clearly remembered that this small bench had been placed in the corner just now.
Could it be...
He glanced at the cold girl in front of him, hesitated for a moment, walked forward and said, "Um...Miss Xia Chan, can I sit down?"
The girl turned her face away and said nothing.
If you don’t hum, that’s a tacit consent.
Luo Qingzhou held the tea cup and sat down on the small bench. He glanced at her profile and wanted to speak, but didn't know what to say.
No matter what I say, I won't get a response.
At most I get one word "hum".
And there is always the risk of angering her.
So...it's better to shut up.
The two of them sat in front of the stove, one holding a tea cup, one holding a sword, one looking at the stove, one with a face turned away, both silent.
The night passed quietly.
The temperature in the stove spread slowly in the dimly lit kitchen, quietly warming the silent and strange man and woman.
"Um, are you cold? Do you want me to put some clothes on you?"
"It's getting late. How about going back to bed?"
"It's almost dawn..."
All night long, Luo Qingzhou said these three sentences, but he didn't get any response.
When the sky is dark.
The girl finally stood up, held the sword, and left coldly, still without leaving a word.
Luo Qingzhou sat for a while longer, then turned off the stove and returned to the house.
Then he took off his clothes and went to bed, got under the quilt, and hugged the warm and soft little girl.
It’s really frustrating.
Wouldn't it be better to sit there in a daze all night, hugging the little girl and kissing her under the quilt?
He kissed Xiaodie's tender and fragrant shoulder, wrapped the quilt tightly, and closed his eyes.
This time I slept until noon.
After lunch, he went to the stone room at the bottom of the lake to practice.
When I come back in the evening.
Xiaodie had already returned with a sumptuous dinner, and then told him: "Master, Sister Bailing came here just now. Sister Bailing said that she had a nightmare last night and was afraid of sleeping alone, so she asked the slave to go over and sleep with her tonight. "
Luo Qingzhou was stunned when he heard this: "What else did she say?"
Xiaodie thought for a while, shook her head and said, "No, that's all. Young Master, I will warm you up in the evening, and then go over after helping you warm up."
Luo Qingzhou pondered for a moment, his eyes flashed, and said: "No, you can go early."
Xiaodie didn't think much and agreed.
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head to eat and thought to himself: She should already know that I doubt her, right? So she deliberately fooled Xiaodie tonight to create evidence of alibi, and then when Xiaodie fell asleep, she might sneak over again... to sleep with me?
mean!
