After being rejected by Christie, when all the candidates were put on the discarded list, I was surprised to find that Mo Xiaojing had always been the most suitable person.
"I don't like it." Ao Xuehua said.
"I am not happy."
"I don't want to accept it either."
Qi Xia had a vague smile, like the smoke of willows in the drizzle: "Even if you don't like it, princess, and don't want to accept it, this is the most appropriate result."
So Mo Xiaojing and Ao Xuehua reached an agreement to become a temporary couple.
Since this plan was highly confidential, the entire Feixin Gym support group that was originally available had to be reluctantly abandoned. It would never be possible to recreate the grand occasion where everyone worked together to promote Ren Qiuke and Haoyue. But even so, friends at the end of summer The company also demonstrated a high degree of professionalism.
…
…
At the end of summer, when the Friends Club was reviewing the pros and cons of the sacrificial act in the wooden house, Ye Qing glanced around and felt keenly that something was missing.
Obviously I had never felt such a strange feeling before.
On his left is classmate Ge Sheng, on his right is the well-behaved Luo Beier, and the white cat Jie Ying is lying on the table, closing his eyes and taking a nap.
Ao Xuehua was opposite, disdainful of Qi Xia's speech, while Qi Xia was sitting next to Mo Xiaojing, always wanting to use the grown-up as a shield.
Shi Feng and His Highness the Third Highness sat there deserted. Neither of them was used to speaking casually on such occasions, unless they really wanted to speak.
The chatty senior Zhou Yan has always been united around Qi Xia and will not waver for a hundred years.
Of course, there is also Ziquan, the purple-haired girl who is now the treasure of the academy. It seems that she has never changed.
There are only nine people, right? By the end of summer, there will be ten members of the Friends Club.
So who is the missing person?
It was on my lips, but I couldn't say her name no matter what.
Who is she?
Ye Qing fell into a trance.
"Is there anyone here?" Ye Qing couldn't help but ask.
Ao Xuehua looked around and said naturally: "Lan Che asked for leave, have you forgotten?"
Ye Qing was stunned when he suddenly heard the name Lan Che.
By the way, the person who forgot was Lan Che. She seemed to have indeed told herself that she would not come to the gathering today because she had something to do. Anyway, she had not joined any club. She was the only one in the Friends Club at the end of summer who was related to There is no one involved in the three major societies.
So when was the last time she attended a late-summer Friends Society meeting?
Ye Qing couldn't help but ask himself.
I forgot, she is such a gentle and beautiful girl. Even if she is sitting here, she is like a beautiful bonsai. Only when there are differences of opinion and need to vote, Ye Qing will get Lan Che, an almost die-hard vote bank. , just because she is someone who does not need to think about or worry about, it is easier to forget about her.
But have you really forgotten?
Ye Qing asked himself again.
If you forget, you shouldn't be unable to remember her name at this moment. She is obviously the girl with whom you have the best and closest relationship.
Ye Qing stood up suddenly: "Where is Lan Che now?"
Everyone around was startled by Her Highness the Princess's sudden move. Qi Xia touched her chin: "According to the time, Lan Che should be in the dormitory. Something happened at home recently, so she is not in a good mood."
Something happened at Lan Che's family? Ye Qing was thoughtful.
Lan Che is a member of the third family with the surname Lan, and it is even said that she is expected to train with the future head of the family. Something happened in her family. Why doesn't she, the princess of Lan Ye, know about it, but Qi Xia, an outsider, knows better than herself? a little.
Ye Qing looked at the other party. Qi Xia looked at Ye Qing's expression and stopped trying to be pretentious: "The head of the third family is seriously ill. Various treatments have failed. He may only have less than a year to live."
Ye Qing bit his lip gently: "Why don't I know?"
Qi Xia smiled: "Because the princess has always deliberately not wanted to pay attention to this matter, nor does she want to taint the authority of your elder brothers."
"But I know now." Ye Qing sighed: "And I think it's more than just that."
"I must have been put under a interference spell. Did you people here do it?"
Ao Xuehua frowned: "It's impossible, right? I didn't notice it."
"If it's true, just ask and you will know." Ye Qing smiled faintly. Ever since returning from the Forest of Death, Ye Qing also had an inexplicable feeling that she was getting further and further away from her former self. Maybe she would always be there. One day she will become something she never imagined, but at this moment she is still very grateful for these changes.
If it were my previous self, I'm afraid I wouldn't have noticed these changes.
Ye Qing reached out and grabbed Ge Sheng's left hand and placed it in front of him. On the ring finger of Ge Sheng's left hand was the very familiar black ring.
Christie's Black Iron Ring.
"Christie, I have something to ask you."
Christie's voice came out unhurriedly, with a little laziness and cunning.
"I know what you're going to ask me, but I'm not going to tell you everything."
"Have I been cast a interference spell, and it is a very clever interference spell."
"Yes." Christie replied calmly.
"Then the person who did this is Lan Che?"
"no."
"Is it one of us here?"
"No."
"Then what is his purpose for doing this? Is he just trying to protect Lan Che Gugu and us?"
"of course not."
Christie's voice was laced with a slight smile.
"I don't know that I didn't tell you that my time in this college won't be too long. In fact, it's almost time for me to leave."
"As for the inside story of the whole thing, there were people above me trying to cover it up, but I still saw some clues, some very bad clues."
"But I can't tell you what it is, and I can't try to do anything. Everything I do will only make it worse. I have tried too many times so I don't want to be disappointed again. I will only protect. The people I care about most are not harmed at all costs, but these people do not include you, so I will not assist you like last time."
"And, although you really want to know what will happen, I have to tell you that some things have already happened before you called me."
Ye Qing listened to Christie's long speech and had a very bad feeling in his heart. At this moment, someone pushed open the door behind him.
Since most people in the Friends Club now have extra heavy copying work at the end of summer, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find time. As a last resort, we can only meet at night this time. Under normal circumstances, there will be no people even during the day. Come and disturb this wooden house that has a high status in the college.
Ye Qing turned his head.
Lan Yaxin's beautiful figure in blue and white appeared on the other side of the door. Her body was generally covered by darkness, and her expression was surprised but relieved.
"I came to check on you. It's great to see that you are all safe."
"Bei Luan was attacked just now, and all the lost notes she was carrying were taken away. We simply arrived in time and Bei Luan was rescued in time."
When Ye Qing rushed to Beiluan ward, His Highness the Third Prince was waiting at the door.
There is a strange friendship between the vice presidents. After learning about the attack on Beiluan, the red-haired girl immediately came and guarded the ward, trying to prevent any further harm from happening.
Ye Qing said hello to His Highness the Third Highness, and then opened the white door.
Just as he thought, the simple ward was all white, except for a bunch of freshly picked green orchids with dewdrops beside the table. Bei Luan lay calmly on the hospital bed, his eyes closed and his face pale. As if the princess had been pricked on the finger by a spindle, she fell into an almost eternal sleep.
There was no third person in the ward.
Ye Qing stepped forward and gently touched the former vice chairman's forehead with his hand. When the tentacles felt calm and warm, the girl let out a sigh of relief.
Sometimes, no matter how confirmed something is, it can't compare to the reality that you can touch with your own hands.
Ye Qing still remembered the gentle and capable purple-haired chairman who handed him a lacquered envelope when he went to see her for the first time. One day, he was standing where she was that day, but she was lying here quietly.
The door behind him suddenly opened, and someone came from behind Ye Qing. Ye Qing turned around and saw Yi Bi walking in with slightly red and swollen eyes. She was a little surprised to see Ye Qing's presence, and then she reached out and put a bottle of medicine on the table. On the table of Lancao, he turned around and said at the same time: "She needs a quiet rest. I may have something you want to know."
Ye Qing nodded and followed Yi Bi. When he walked out of Bei Luan's ward, His Highness the Third Prince was already waiting outside the door motionless. It seemed that she would not leave even a single step until the girl inside woke up. He won't even take a nap.
This is the towering obsidian tower, which is also the location of the student union headquarters. Ye Qing followed Yibi up a few floors and stopped in an empty classroom.
Yibi turned around, and there was still black outside the window, as if the huge wings of the ancient dragon covered everything.
"I was also surprised, although I got some warnings from my own channels." Yibi looked at Ye Qing and said calmly.
"What warning?" Ye Qing couldn't help but ask.
"What do you think?" Yibi smiled, took out a few small, round candies from her pocket, stuffed one into her mouth and looked at Ye Qing with a smile: "Would you like one?"
"It seems that we are becoming more and more inseparable from my sister-in-law." Ye Qing nodded, reached out and took a licorice-mint flavored candy and put it into his mouth, shaking his head while feeling the ultimate taste that can drive away almost all worries. : "If I told you that she would leave this year, would a lot of people cry?"
"Yes, how many people are still waiting eagerly for the beauty of Her Majesty the Queen's skirt. Even people with high scores today can hardly appreciate the flavor of Christie's meal, but people always have to dream a little bit." Bi said with a smile, then tilted his head and continued the topic: "It's a warning from those elves that they are not to be trifled with."
"You don't need to stress that we all know how hard elves are to mess with. After all, I was among the people who went to greet them in person." Ye Qing said lightly, walked to a row of seats and sat on the desk with his hands on his hands. , both feet swaying slightly in the air.
Neither of them turned on the lights and stared at each other in the darkness, but they were as aware of everything in the house as they were during the day.
"Besides, it's a public fact that their leader is frantically pursuing President Zangxue."
"In the end, the president got involved with the chairman?" Yibi curled her lips intriguingly: "I'm very unhappy."
After a pause, Yibi reached out and touched her nose with a very unwilling expression: "I always thought I had a chance."
"It's happening now." Ye Qing said, "I feel like it's unlikely that they're going to do it for real."
"No, no, no." Yibi smiled and said in a clear voice, "Your Highness, you don't understand anything, otherwise you wouldn't let the Queen take your brother away."
Just when Ye Qing was angrily trying to refute, Yibi had already arrived in front of Ye Qing, and gently pressed her fingers against Ye Qing's lips, resisting all her words.
"But it doesn't matter."
"At least it's not the most important thing at this time." Yibi said slowly.
After Ye Qing calmed down his expression obediently, Yibi retracted his finger. The opponent's speed was so fast and his movements were as light as a rabbit wandering through the clouds. Ye Qing was a little skeptical about how much the captain of the Nine Songs Team two years ago had improved.
But one thing was clear to her.
"You can't beat me!" Ye Qing proudly said her biggest support now.
"Yes, I am no match for Your Highness the Princess." Yibi admitted this fact frankly: "But many times saying this is a sign of cowardice, because other than that, you have nothing to be proud of."
"Also, let's get back to the business." Yibi became serious: "Someone covets "Yue Lost Notes", and those elves gave them a chance."
Ye Qing nodded: "But before they came, the lost notes were not a problem for many people, at least not for me."
"That's different. Princess." Yibi shook her head: "That's different."
"The people who can be seen in the Yue Yi Notes are the top people in the academy. For their own reasons, they will maintain this privilege to a certain extent. And under the saints, no one can exhaust the person. Of all the thoughts and masterpieces of the saint, you can only choose to study the part that you care about most, just like the part of the power that the princess has gained now."
"But now, those elves hope to obtain the complete Yue Lost Notes and bring them back to their world. In the meantime, there are many variables. The biggest variable is that at this moment, the Yue Lost Notes have never been as important as at this moment. Many manuscripts are flowing in the academy at the same time like leaves floating on a stream, as if you can easily grab a handful by stretching out your hand."
Ye Qing shook his head: "But these are still not reasons."
"Perhaps Beiluan was attacked because of the Lost Notes, but the real purpose of the attacker is definitely not the Lost Notes." Ye Qing spoke seriously, with a heavy tone: "At least it's not just the Lost Notes."
Yibi smiled: "Her Royal Highness is indeed getting smarter and smarter."
"Yes, because there are the biggest variables in the academy like that group of elves, some people hope to use this group of elves to muddy the water in the academy so that they can catch the fish they want."
"The only problem is, the fish they want is so big that few people can fish it out intact."
"At the same time, the people who fish for fish are also very powerful. Maybe they can really catch such an unprecedented big fish." Yibi said, her tone became calmer and calmer, but more and more sad.
"Just as beings like Christie don't want to get involved, I'm afraid my academic career will come to an end, but before that, I at least still have the qualifications to watch theater. Bei Luan is a very good, very good friend of mine. I didn't expect that she would be the first one to be involved in the whirlpool. I was very unhappy and angry, so I made an exception and told Her Royal Highness the princess something more."
"By the way."
Yibi smiled.
"Emperor Tianqi is back."
