Chapter 38

respectively

When Zhui Ming said the last sentence, the hand holding the wine gourd couldn't help but tighten, his face was full of bitterness and hatred, but the smile in his eyes was unusually warm——Xi Yin was slightly taken aback, but his eyes couldn't bear to A slight smile could not help appearing, and the two small dimples on her cheeks were slowly revealed, her expression was extraordinarily soft.

Zhuiming smiled, shook his head half helplessly and half self-deprecatingly, and looked down at Xiyin again.

Is this... just like it?Xiyin blinked her eyes, the smile on her face slowly subsided, and once again resumed her usual seriousness, she stared at Zhui Ming for a while, pursed her lips a little uneasy, and said softly :

"I……"

As soon as she uttered a word, she suddenly stopped and couldn't continue—what should she say next?As for Zhui Ming, she seems to have begun to understand a little bit, she can even know that the reason why Zhui Ming looks at her with such nervous and expectant eyes is because he is looking forward to telling him "I like you", But she didn't know how to answer - did she really have such a "like" for Zhui Ming?She didn't want to disappoint him, but she couldn't lie to him either—something dimly flashed in her heart and mind, but she couldn't catch it... The little nun's long eyelashes trembled slightly , Little by little struggle and confusion appeared in his eyes.

Seeing the little Taoist nun's hesitation, confusion, and even guilt, all in his eyes, Zhui Ming's eyes dimmed slightly, and the not-so-obvious tension and anticipation on his face slowly faded away, but he still couldn't help it. Having the heart to persecute her, she couldn't help but sighed secretly in her heart, stood up suddenly, went to the table to pour a glass of water, and soon returned to the bed again, reaching out to poke Xiyin's cheek.

——Since seeing the little Taoist girl smile for the first time, every time he sees those two little dimples, he feels itchy and always wants to poke them with his fingers. Unfortunately, the little Taoist nun is not smiling at the moment, those two cute dimples The small pear vortex quietly disappeared without a trace.

"Just let it go if you can't figure it out for now, don't worry, I'll just tell you first, so that you don't always understand anything, just let me know when you figure it out," Zhui Ming haha With a laugh, he had already returned to his usual casualness and boldness, his expression and tone were all natural, "Drink a few sips of water first, and the maid will bring breakfast and medicine later."

Zhui Ming said, suddenly paused, and then added with a smile: "Whether you like me or not, you can tell me what you think when the time comes, and you don't have to give me face."

When he said this, there was still a hearty smile on his face, as if he just mentioned it inadvertently, but his eyes and tone were extremely serious - Xiyin didn't speak, just nodded slightly, as solemnly as always .

Having known each other for so long, the little Taoist nun has a clear understanding of her temperament and life-seriousness, seriousness, and even a bit of rigidity, and she will take everything seriously and think about it meticulously.She can't give an answer for a while now, but this matter must have been solemnly put in her heart, and she will give an answer as soon as possible.

——That's enough.As for whether she accepts or rejects, it is not something he can force, and he does not want to force her. "I'm lucky if I win, but my life is lost", he has always understood this truth very well, no matter what the final result is, he only hopes that the little Taoist nun can live well.

Confessed all his thoughts and feelings to the little Taoist nun, even though he hadn't received an answer for the time being, Zhuiming seemed to relax all of a sudden, with a big grin, holding the cup in one hand, and supporting Xi in the other. Yin's shoulders allow her to sit up and drink some water.

The moment he wrapped his arms around the little Taoist nun's shoulders, the movement of Zhui Ming froze slightly. It was hard to say whether it was nervousness or regret, or some other mood——Xi Yin was seriously injured, and the Taoist robe on her body was already dripping with blood. Can no longer be worn.After the doctor left yesterday, he asked the servant girl to take off Xi Yin's coat and change into a middle coat - of course, he went out to avoid it at that time.The little Taoist nun lay unconscious on the bed for a whole day and night, and she just woke up at this time, naturally she was still wearing only the middle coat, nothing else.

The previous short hug was to hold her into her arms together with the quilt, and she didn't feel anything for a while, but now——his palm was on her shoulder, the close-fitting undershirt was very thin, and the little Taoist nun's body temperature Almost as if there was no barrier, it reached the palm of my hand.Zhui Ming is not young, but his love life has always been very bumpy. He has never been so close to a girl before, and his mind was almost uncontrollable. He slightly looked away and coughed, but quickly returned Come on——Xiyin's body temperature has always been slightly lower than that of ordinary people. Now that he is injured, his body is almost chilled, which makes him shiver suddenly. After throwing it away, frowning slightly, he carefully held the little Taoist nun in his arms, tucked in the quilt to wrap her tightly, then brought the cup to her mouth, and slowly fed her drinking water.

Xiyin lowered his head, drank water in small sips, and looked down at her desperately. From his angle, he could only see the side face of the little Taoist nun—she had always been fair-skinned, but now she was seriously injured and her complexion was a little pale. It was so white that it was transparent; the temperature and touch in her arms were extremely real, and when I held her, my heart felt at ease like never before—Zui Ming’s heart swayed, but he still couldn’t hold it back. After taking a sip of water, he moved the cup away, then lowered his head, and kissed her forehead.

His movements are extremely light, with obvious gratitude and cherishment, and a little bit of temptation - his movements are also very slow, if Xiyin doesn't want to, he can completely avoid it.

But Xiyin didn't avoid it—she just raised her head to look at him in surprise and doubt, and then let him get closer and closer until his lips touched her forehead.

Xi Yin blinked her eyes, her expression slightly confused, but she didn't resist.

The mood of chasing life seemed to be extremely good all of a sudden. While laughing, he gently put the little Taoist girl back on the bed and lay down. After a pause, he reached out and carefully tucked the quilt for her—about As a rough and bold old man, he has never done such a thing of caring for others. His movements are very clumsy, but his expression is extremely careful and serious.

Xiyin lay on the bed and looked at him with soft eyes.

……

Xiyin was seriously injured, and she won't be able to recover for a while, but after two or three days, the injury has stabilized and there is no danger, and the rest can only be completely recovered after lying on the bed for a while. cured.

But at this time, Zhui Ming left Qingtian Village alone - he was hardly injured, and he recovered completely after a day or two.The case of Youming Villa involves a lot of things. Over the past few years, at least hundreds of Jianghu people have died in it, involving countless sects. He must report the result of this case to Uncle Shi and Senior Brother as soon as possible.Seeing that the little Taoist nun's injury had stabilized, he let go of most of his heart. Although he was still a little bit reluctant, he still bid farewell temporarily and rushed back to Bianjing alone.In fact, he still has a selfish intention that he didn't say--Liu Chenshu's medical skills are excellent, and it would be best if he could bring Liu Chenshu to see Xiyin's injury this time when he goes back this time.

Xiyin didn't have any objection to Zhuiming's temporary departure. She still couldn't get out of bed at this time, and she couldn't go back to Bianjing with Zhuiming, so she just listened to his words quietly, then nodded obediently, and watched him leave .

Zhui Ming's departure didn't seem to have much impact on Xiyin. The little Taoist nun still lay on the bed every day to recuperate quietly, and occasionally listened to Wu Caiyun who came to see her, and even Bai Xinru came to see her during the period. I kissed her once - she was very quiet, but she didn't feel lonely or bored.

Three days later, Xiyin was finally able to get out of bed, but the activities were still a bit strenuous and needed support, so she resumed her daily morning and evening classes, and spent the rest of her time meditating or chanting. The days were still quiet and rigid.

"I'm traveling fast, and I'll be back in three or four days." ——Zui Ming's words before he left seemed to still ring in his ears. Xi Yin, who had finished her morning class, opened her eyes and quietly turned her head to look out the window , silent without saying a word.

——He said he would be back in three or four days, but it was already the fifth day, and he still hadn't come back.

Xiyin was silent for a while, then looked away, closed her eyes again, and meditated quietly.

On the sixth day, Zhui Ming did not come back.

On the seventh day, he still had no news.

On the eighth day, the ninth day... Zhui Ming never came back.On the tenth day, although Xiyin hadn't healed and couldn't use the sword, she was able to walk normally——Xiyin finally couldn't stop worrying, and planned to say goodbye to Wu Caiyun and go back to Bianhai by herself. Jing, just pushed open the door of her own room, but the colorful clothes flashed in front of her eyes, almost bumping into someone who came.

"Xiyin, Xiyin!" Wu Caiyun barely avoided Xiyin, and stretched out her hand to support her as soon as she stood still, but her normally delicate and lively face was covered with a thin layer of sweat, full of nervousness and anxiety. Urgent, even the usual crisp voice sounded a little deep and full of worry at this time,

"I just heard that something big happened in Bianjing! Several massacres more than ten years ago - including the case that killed the whole family of the ruthless chief arrester - were solved. Four famous arresters intercepted and killed the thirteen criminals who committed the crime. But all four were seriously injured!"

The author has something to say: it's late, I'm very sorry QAQ
