After being wronged and rehabilitated

Aggrieved, Yun Yanli smoothed the lock of hair that was blown apart by the lightning, and complained in a low voice: "I didn't tell him anything, it's better to say that Father Zun, you are too fierce to scare him."

He took advantage of the situation and complained before realizing it later, covered his mouth in a panic, and waited in fear for the next lightning strike.

It's just that unexpectedly this time, Lord Yun didn't hit him again, instead a deep voice came from the hall: "We'll discuss this matter later——Yanli."

Yun Yanli hurriedly straightened her waist: "Yes."

Master Yun said: "Take your elder brother to Xuezhong Garden."

Yun Yanli was taken aback for a moment, and immediately said: "Yes!"

Soon, Xiang Chongjing leisurely walked out of the hall with his sleeves folded, and saw that Yun Yanli didn't seem to have been injured by the hack, so he asked, "Where is Xue Chongyuan?"

The door of the palace was slammed shut, and Yun Yanli hurriedly got up from the ground as if he had received an amnesty, grabbed the mirror and ran down the steps.

Before running a few steps, Yun Yanli's mouth suddenly issued a warning. He instinctively let go of Xiang Chongjing's hand and quickly retracted it. The next moment, he watched Gu Congxu as if he was gnawing on a bone. Like a big dog, it bit towards the direction of his hand just now.

There was a crisp click, the sound of Gu Congxu closing his fangs.

Yun Yanli: "..."

If Yun Yanli didn't hide, he could bite off this wrist.

After Gu Congxu forced Yun Yanli back, he glared at him fiercely, holding an umbrella to protect Xiang Chongjing behind him.

The thunder in the sky grew louder.

After Yun Yanli returned to Yunzhong Prefecture, his suppressed cultivation has long since recovered, but the evil dragon has also unsealed the seal, and the battle between the two is even more difficult to distinguish. Moreover, he has also formed a life-and-death pact with the same mirror, Yun Yanli Even if he was angry, he couldn't do anything, so he could only stare at him bitterly.

"Xue Chongyuan is there." Yun Yanli raised his hand and pointed towards the tall buildings in the distance that looked like layers of clouds overlapped.

Xiang Chongjing held Gu Congxu's hand holding the umbrella and lifted it slightly, raising the umbrella higher so that he could see Xue Chongyuan in the sky.

Gu Congxu was baring his teeth and staring at Yun Yanli, but when he was held, his fingers trembled suddenly, and he blushed and looked at Xiang Chongjing's side face for a long time, before he quietly stretched out his little finger and gently hooked it. He pointed his finger at the mirror.

Xiang Chongjing didn't notice it, and asked Yun Yanli suspiciously, "Who lives where?"

Yun Yanli's voice was rare and gentle: "Mother."

Xiang Chongjing was taken aback.

When facing Lord Yun, Xiang Chong did not change his expression in the mirror, and there was no wave in his heart, but when he said the word "mother" in such a gentle voice in Yun Yanli, Xiang Chong's footsteps down the steps paused. A strange feeling suddenly surfaced in my heart.

He froze in place, clutching his chest blankly.

Yun Yanli couldn't wait to take Xiang Chongjing to Xue Chongyuan. He had already jumped down the steps, raised his head and said to Xiang Chongjing: "What's the matter? Let's go, my father is worried that I won't be able to find you. Tell her about your return."

Xiang Chongjing hesitated for a moment, then followed Yun Yanli.

After walking for a while, Xiang Chongjing still hesitated and asked the same question: "Mother... what kind of person is she?"

Seeing that Xiang Chongjing called his mother instead of the wife of the Lord, Yun Yanli breathed a sigh of relief, but instead of praising his father like a hype, he rolled his eyes and only said one sentence.

"The Xuezhongyuan has your residence, and I will definitely keep a copy of the things my mother gave me over the past few decades."

Xiang Chongjing suddenly opened his eyes wide.

Yun Yanli: "And the compliments she gave me since I was a child, she wrote down on the paper stroke by stroke, and said that she will make up for you every sentence that she didn't say to you when I get you back."

Xiang Chong Jing Mou Tong was a little absent-minded, if an ordinary person heard this, he would be ecstatic, but there seemed to be no waves in his heart, only an inexplicable fear surged up.

He looked up at Xue Chongyuan, which was getting closer and closer, and suddenly realized that he didn't dare to go there.

Tiandao is stingy, and Xiang Chongjing has never experienced too much true feelings since he was a child. Yunzhong Prefecture was just an ordinary place for him before.

He only wanted to find out the identity of the person who threw him into Luochuan back then and return to Nine Provinces, so he alienated Lord Yun and didn't want to recognize his ancestors and return to his clan, because he didn't want to accept any charity from Yunzhong State.

Now Yun Yanli told him that in the years he didn't know, someone had been thinking about him.

But Xiang Chongjing only felt terrified.

He didn't know what he was afraid of at all, but when he looked at Xue Chongyuan, which was getting closer and closer, the urgent fear almost made him tremble all over.

In the blink of an eye, Xiang Chongjing suddenly woke up.

What he was afraid of was not the woman he had never seen before, but the fact that he could not confirm whether this true concern was true or not.

If it is false, he is afraid that he will have hope in his heart again, but in the end he will fall into a deeper abyss;

If true...

Xiang Chongjing's heart was trembling violently, and he thought blankly: "If it's true, do people like me... deserve such true feelings?"

Is he worth someone worrying about him for so many years?

Seeing that his face was as pale as paper, Gu Congxu hesitantly stretched out his hand to hold his cold fingertips.

Xiang Chongjing was stunned, even if his hand was held, he didn't respond, he just walked forward slowly.

Yun Yanli didn't know what Xiang Chongjing was thinking, and waved at him: "Hurry up, it's almost dawn, mother should have already got up in the morning to water the flowers by this hour."

Only then did Xiang Chongjing come back to his senses, nodded hastily, and murmured, "Okay."

He was a little at a loss, and didn't know where to put his hands. After a while, he grasped the handle of the umbrella tightly with both hands, and pretended to be calm: "You can coil it in my hands first."

Gu Congxu obediently turned into a little dragon coiled around his wrist.

Holding the umbrella handle, Xiang Chongjing walked slowly along the Yushi Road like a mushroom, and soon the Xuezhong Garden was in front of him.

Due to Lord Yun's anger, the entire Yunzhong State was covered with dark clouds and heavy rain poured down, but only the sky above Xuezhongyuan was free of dark clouds, and layers of clouds as white as snow passed through the tall buildings as if they were picturesque.

A ray of morning sun slowly pierced through the clouds and shone on the tall buildings.

The wooden door of Xuezhong Garden was wide open, revealing the courtyard full of flowers inside, and the bluestone road paved into a quiet path spread to the depths of the sea of ​​flowers.

It was the first time for Xiang Chongjing to feel the feeling of being close to home and feeling timid. He looked at the colorful sea of ​​flowers in panic, and vaguely heard the sound of watering inside.

Yun Yanli had already ran over happily and shouted: "Mother! Mother, guess who is here?!"

Xiang Chongjing's wrist softened, and it dropped slightly. The umbrella fell from his hand, rolled into the nearby clouds and soon disappeared.

A gentle voice came from inside: "Yanli, why haven't I seen you for so many days?"

Xiang Chongjing trembled all over, instinctively took half a step back.

Xue Chongyuan was close at hand, but he wanted to escape.

Xiang Chongjing listened to what Yun Yanli and the gentle woman were talking about, his whole mind was buzzing, and countless questions came to him.

She cherishes and misses the child who has been lost for many years so much, if she sees herself like this, will she be disappointed?

Will she feel that her longing for decades is a futile joke?

she will...

Dislike me?

Xiang Chongjing has lived for so many years, and never knew that he was so weak and inferior in his bones.

He is afraid that the true love that is so close at hand does not belong to him, and he is even more afraid that this is just a dream.

Maybe what he got through that door was not the sincerity he wanted, but the boundless pain and fear 60 years ago.

He didn't want to repeat the same mistakes, he didn't want to be hurt, and he didn't want to let himself fall into darkness again.

Inside that door, Yun Yanli smiled heartily, coaxing her into a gentle chuckle with skillful coquettishness.

Xiang Chongjing thought blankly: "I'm a boring person, I can't make people laugh."

Yun Yanli and him are twins, but Xiang Chongjing has never compared the two of them together, but at this moment Xiang Chongjing suddenly realized that he and Yun Yanli could not be compared at all.

Yun Yanli had a noble status since he was a child, and he was well-clothed and well-fed, but in Kyushu, he was just a puppet controlled by Dementor, and he couldn't even get freedom after trying his best.

The two are not from the same world at all, but they are barely connected by blood in this life.

In the memory of Xiang Chongjing's previous life, he didn't have any memory about his parents. He was afraid of this strange feeling and instinctively wanted to get closer. He stood outside the door for a long time before taking a difficult step.

Yun Yanli was squatting in the gazebo beside the sea of ​​flowers, looking up and coquettishly with a woman in white: "Father drove me out of the city for two months to do an important thing, and I finally came back today , he even struck me with lightning, twice! Mother decides for me!"

The woman in white is called Zhixuezhong, this Xuezhong Garden was built by Venerable Yun for her, she looked gentle, covered her lips and smiled softly: "Which strand of hair did the lightning hit in my inkstone again this time?"

Yun Yanli squatted next to her and tugged at her sleeve: "I didn't provoke him, he deliberately vented his anger—hey, mother, you haven't guessed yet, who is here?"

Zhi Xuezhong's face was a little sickly pale, she tilted her head slightly and coughed, and said kindly: "Who is it, mother can't guess."

Yun Yan smiled, and winked at Xiang Chongjing, who had half a figure at the door, signaling him to come over quickly.

Zhi Xuezhong originally thought that Yun Yanli had brought another friend over to play, so he turned to look sideways with a smile on his face.

When her eyes fell on the figure standing holding the door frame, Zhixue was stunned, a moment of confusion appeared on that gentle face, and then she seemed to recognize her, her eyes slowly widened.

Xiang Chongjing stood by the door hesitantly, not daring to pass for a moment.

Yun Yanli desperately sent a sound transmission to him: "Come here quickly, hurry up!"

Xiang Chongjing's fingers dangling in his sleeves trembled suddenly, and then he took a breath silently, and slowly raised his steps, passed through the waist-length flowers, and walked towards Zhixue Chong step by step.

The road seemed extremely long, but it passed by in the blink of an eye, and Xiang Chongjing's mind went blank. When he came back to his senses, he was already standing beside Zhi Xuezhong, looking down at her.

Zhixue looked at him blankly, she was too weak, she unconsciously pressed her hands on the wooden table next to her and wanted to stand up, but her legs felt weak and she didn't have the strength to stand up at all.

She seemed to have lost her voice. Her eyes, one black and one gray, gradually changed from the confusion just now to unbelievable joy and great sadness. Crystal tears condensed in her eyes, and her pale lips trembled slightly, but she couldn't say a single word. not out.

Seeing her head up, Xiang Zhongjing hesitated for a moment and bent down slightly, kneeling beside her on one knee so that he could look at her at the same level.

The moment he lowered his body, a tear flowed from Zhixuezhong's beautiful eyes, ran across his cheek, and just fell into Xiangzhong's sight.

A soft click.

A cluster of freshly watered flowers tilted slightly, and the water droplets in the stamens finally slipped down and dripped on the ground.

More and more tears fell from Zhixue's eyes, and she wept silently, stretching out her trembling hands to touch Xiang Chongjing's face, as if afraid that this was just a dream.

Xiang Chongjing froze all over, as if he didn't dare to bear this warm touch.

Yun Yanli suddenly sent a voice transmission to him.

"Don't hide."

Xiang Chongjing looked up.

Yun Yanli looked at him beggingly, it was the first time she was so humble, she let go of her arrogance completely: "Please, just this time."

Xiang Chongjing was stunned for a moment, barely restraining the urge to escape, lowered his head slightly, and let Zhixue Chong's warm hand fall on top of his head in a meek manner.

Zhixue shook her hand and gently stroked his head.

Decades late caress.

Zhi Xuezhong smiled softly while weeping, she stroked it again, and murmured.

"So... it's my jade boat."

Xiang Chongjing's heart trembled suddenly, his limbs and bones seemed to be immersed in the bone-piercing numbness, which made his fists that had been clenched tightly since he came in suddenly loosen, and his bluish-white knuckles slowly returned to blood.

He raised his head, smiled suddenly, and said softly, "Yes."
