Glued up by my father's nemesis

"Q... Mr. Qi?"

Yan Fei tentatively called twice, but did not hear Qi Jingsi's answer, so he could only carefully search for the direction of the voice.

There was some faint light at the entrance of the cave, and he could tell that the sound did not come from the cave entrance, but rather...

Just now was the direction of Qi Jingsi's last speech.

He also thought of the hideous wound on Qi Jingsi's right forearm just now.

"Are you... are you okay?"

Qi Jingsi still didn't answer, as if she had fallen asleep.

Before Qi Jingsi felt that he was not familiar with Yan Fei, but it was also true for Yan Fei.

Young Master Qi has a high status, only the children of the Chang family and the Fei family are qualified to call him brothers and sisters, and he is not the son of a businessman who is full of copper stink.

It's just that the cold-faced and seldom-talking Mr. Qi is different from the others in the academy, and he doesn't dislike him as a blind man.

He returned Qi Jingsi's kindness with kindness, that's all.

Maybe not even friends.

But from being kidnapped by bandits to now, in less than a night, there are hungry wolves in front and gangsters in the back, and suddenly the world is vast, and only the two of them are left to help each other and depend on each other.

Qi Jingsi's unconscious protection actually gave birth to some inexplicable dependence.

The wound on the opponent's right arm and the abnormal noise in his ear both made Yan Fei inexplicably frightened.

He knelt down on the ground, almost crawling all the way towards the direction of the sound, and finally touched Qi Jingsi's ankle.

Stretching out his hand to probe Qi Jingsi's forehead, he didn't find anything unusual, except for a thin layer of sweat on Qi Jingsi's forehead and a slight trembling of her body.

Although Yan Fei does not live in the circle of aristocrats, everyone in Beijing does not know that the young master of the Qi family is an overlord who is fearless.

The rumored Qi Jingsi is so unpredictable and difficult to get along with, Yan Fei may have never seen it with his own eyes before, but he can see the clue from the back of the other party who just slaughtered the wolf.

But now, he can also feel something similar to fragility in Qi Jingsi's repressed trembling in breathing.

He's familiar with this vulnerability, or at least used to be.

"Young Master Qi..." He wiped the thin sweat from Qi Jingsi's forehead with his cuff, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Qi Jingsi still didn't answer, but the trembling all over her body became more and more obvious.

Vulnerability too.

Yan Fei even felt that he could see the fear overflowing around Qi Jingsi in the darkness.

"You..." He probed, cautiously, afraid of touching the unknown boundary in Qi Jingsi's heart, "Is it because of fear?"

Locking his throat with a sharp blade, and a pack of wolves dancing wildly, he had never felt such strange emotions around Qi Jingsi.

What is Qi Jingsi afraid of now?

There is obviously only boundless darkness in the cave.

Yan Fei remembered that when he was a child, he had just left his mother to sleep alone, he was very scared; but he dared not say it, he was afraid that his mother would be disappointed.

So at that time he trembled and restrained, just like Qi Jingsi now.

"Afraid of the dark?" He asked in a whisper.

The No.1 prostitute in Beijing back then had the most delicate thoughts, she noticed her son trembling in the thin mattress, so she sat by the bed, patted Yan Fei's back, and chanted a song to lull her son to sleep.

At that time, Yan Fei thought, it would be even better if his mother could give him another hug.

But mother didn't.

So now Yan Fei put his arms around Qi Jingsi.

Just like he wanted in the first place.

Embracing Qi Jingsi's trembling and fragility in his arms, he softly hummed the ballad that his mother used to lull him to sleep——

"It's hard to be an April day. Silkworms need to be warm and wheat needs to be cold; the brother who sells vegetables wants to rain, and the lady who picks mulberry wants to have sunny days."

Qi Jingsi was neither sick nor fell asleep.

He was awake all the time, but he didn't want Yan Fei to know that he was awake.

Because he was afraid of the dark, Lin Yu would leave an oil lamp for him before going to bed since he was a child.

He was afraid of the dark, terribly, without any reason; it seemed to be the innate fear of the dark in children without parents since childhood, and it has not been cured until now.

Before, he always felt that the cave in the darkness was very noisy, and the sound of the wind whizzing past all over the mountain was desperately drilled into his ears.

But at this moment, it suddenly became quiet.

The ballad that Yan Fei chanted lightly...

Seems to drive everything away—

The turmoil in Beijing, and all the fears he had had over the past ten years.

Because of this ballad, he is too familiar with it.

Yan Fei's embrace and Yan Fei's voice are too gentle.

He suddenly felt sleepy and at ease.

*****

After the rain, the sun is coming up.

The rain last night came in time and went quickly, and the mud on the mountain road quickly evaporated under the sun, making the way down the mountain much easier.

After entering the city, he saw Jing Zhaoyin's government soldiers carrying the portraits of the two of them all over the city looking for people, Qi Jingsi finally let go of Yan Fei's wrist.

Yan Fei unconsciously twisted his reddened wrist, carefully peeking at Qi Jingsi beside him.

Qi Jingsi should have fallen asleep last night, there was no movement all night, after the trembling in his arms gradually calmed down, Yan Fei, who had been struggling all day, finally fell asleep.

Early this morning, when Qi Jingsi called him up, he had already put on his outer robe again, and he didn't say a word except to say hurry down the mountain——

But all the way to hold his wrist tightly.

"Young Master Qi?"

The government soldiers who searched all over the city found Qi Jingsi and rushed over to interrupt Yan Fei's thoughts.

"You, what's wrong with you?"

"Yesterday, someone reported to the officials that you were kidnapped, but Lord Shangshu was very anxious! This morning, the entire Jingzhaoyin people were dispatched..."

The visitor flattered Qi Tongfu all the way, but saw that Qi Jingsi was unmoved.

"Sir, shall I send you back home now?" He tentatively said, "Master Shangshu was so anxious that he stayed up all night yesterday, and he sued the sage for leave early this morning..."

"Didn't Qi Tongfu go to the court?" Qi Jingsi finally had a reaction.

Qi Tongfu has always been a diligent man, and even a blind person can see his dedication to his career; this is the first time Qi Jingsi has heard that his cheap father doesn't go to court.

Still not moved, it's true that he doesn't want to go back to the house and face Qi Tongfu.

He pointed to Yan Fei beside him, "Send Master Yan home first."

"This..." The mansion soldier wondered: "Then... the villain will send another team to escort Young Master Yan?"

The son who was sent back to Heyi Tower must be rewarded, but if he could send back the only son of the Minister of the Household Department in person, that would be a great achievement.

"No need." Qi Jingsi refused bluntly, "Just send him off."

"How did this happen, Mr. Qi!" Seeing that the fat around his mouth was about to fly away, how could the soldier be reconciled, "I haven't found out what happened last night, how dare the villain leave you alone?" On the street!"

Yan Fei didn't know anything about the Qi family's mess, and had been quietly waiting aside and staring at Qi Jingsi.

"Prepare a carriage to send Young Master Yan back to Heyi Tower." Qi Jingsi turned her head to avoid Yan Fei's puzzled eyes, "I'll be with you all the way."

The author has something to say: Come to the door, come to the door! (bushi)

No one guessed Xiao Gong's familiarity with Ah Yan's handwriting before, and it will be revealed soon. Has anyone else participated in the prize-winning quiz?

It's hard to make the sky in April, silkworms need to be warm and wheat needs to be cold; the brother who sells vegetables wants to rain, and the lady who picks mulberry wants to be sunny.It is said to come from "The West Chamber", and Feng Menglong, a writer in the late Ming Dynasty, also mentioned it in "Xing Shi Heng Yan". It is a Jiangnan folk song and agricultural proverb, and the specific source is unknown.
