Siberian wood bone

After the master left, I followed Hou Zai's servants to the hall to wait for a while.After sitting down for a while, I saw that Ji Chuan City sent someone to invite me to stay in Ji Mansion.

I have always asked the Master what he meant, and knowing that the Master has agreed to this matter, I no longer have any objections... I think the Master agreed to stay in Ji's residence for the convenience of Ji Yao's medical treatment.

Ji Yao's illness may be a bit troublesome, when Master came back that day, it was already dark outside.I couldn't sleep, I waited all the time, and now I heard the movement and hurriedly opened the door.

Just as the master was about to go back to the room, he touched the door with his hand, but before he pushed it, he turned around when he heard the sound, saw me standing there blankly, withdrew his hand, and walked towards me.

"Why haven't you slept yet?" His eyebrows seemed to be a little ups and downs, lying dissatisfied.

"I..." Enveloped by his figure, the space in front of me suddenly narrowed, I couldn't help but take a half step back, my momentum weakened for no reason, "...I'm a little worried."

He listened, gave a low laugh, and approached the place where I left, "What are you worried about?"

Worry...you'll think about everything.

Although I know the absurdity in my heart, I still can't help but fear that he will remember everything because of being close to the past.

His smiling voice was low, but I tasted some bitterness because of these chaotic thoughts. I didn't dare to speak out, so I had to turn the subject abruptly, "Miss Ji...how is her illness? Can it be troublesome?"

After I asked, I didn't get a response for a long time.Lifting his eyes hesitantly, he saw that the smile of the person in front of him had been suppressed, and the dark color in his eyes had changed several times.

I saw the master straightened up and looked down.The beautiful eyes are narrow and long, and the waves of the eyes are flowing, lightly sweeping out the carelessness of the master.

He was no longer close to me, so the hazy feeling of intimacy faded away, and a breath-holding oppression appeared naked.

"I thought you knew me very well, that's why I asked for this."

I was startled.

Such a lofty posture, indifferent and alienated, very much like my master... but not like "my" master.

"You really don't know anything?" He asked again.

I opened my eyes wide suddenly, and my heart was clenched instantly.

……What does it mean?

I seemed to have been drained of all my strength, and I didn't know how to deal with the situation in front of me.

But after listening to the words, he felt that the previous coercive power of the master subsided, and he smiled to himself, showing the peaceful and familiar appearance of recent days: "If I don't have any skills, why would Lu Jingyou travel all the way to invite me here?" ? You should have some confidence in me."

...was it a false alarm?

It turned out that he didn't recall the past and wanted to ask the teacher to ask the crime...

It's just that although there is no danger this time, the feeling of fear is really uncomfortable... If there are more times, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it first.Just now, if it's half a minute later, I'm afraid I can't stand it anymore and have to confess to him.

fortunately……

I wanted to say something to expose this matter, but I just blinked my eyes, my mind was full of slow numbness, and I was still trapped in the panic that I was about to be exposed just now.

I couldn't help but retreated to the dark place, wanting to hide in the shadow of the lights in this room, so as to gain some illusory support.

When I stood still, I was shocked to realize how strange my panic must be in the eyes of the master.

Unconsciously, I panicked again.

Fortunately, the master didn't understand what was wrong with me at the moment, so he just looked at me for a while, and said softly: "But tired? If I come back late in the future, you don't have to..."

"So, Miss Ji is all right?"

Hearing Master speak, the tense string in my heart was relieved at once, and the anxiety and guilty conscience wandering around seemed to find the source suddenly, and rushed out.I never thought that I would actually interrupt Master's words in a hurry... I just thought I should say something, but I didn't want to choose such an absolutely inappropriate timing.

The room fell silent.

The tense tremor in my voice seemed to linger in the air.

"I..." I opened my mouth awkwardly.

This sound floated for a long time, finally lost strength and fell down.

The long-awaited explanation made people lose patience.I saw that the master seemed to be suddenly tired, and his interest was low. His brows and eyes were a little cold, and he said in a tired voice: "It's not difficult, it will take some time."

"..." I became more and more at a loss as to what to do.

Relatively silent.

In the end, the master sighed first, and urged: "Okay, it's getting late, go and rest." At the end, after a short pause, he added one more sentence——

"Don't worry about others."

When I was dazed, I half-pushed him to drive him back to the room, and saw that the door was closed by him - the moonlight that had just shone on his shoulders was gradually narrowed and blocked from the outside.Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of the compartment door opening, and when it closed again, the courtyard became truly quiet.

This false alarm before going to sleep made me very preoccupied, and I couldn't sleep well all night, so I woke up when I heard someone walking outside.

Looking at the sky outside, it still reveals the quiet blue of the night, but it is dotted with the color of lights, which has been mixed with a bit of sobriety in the world.

I pushed the door open, and Ning Fei was guarding under the eaves.Seeing me, he came closer, "Master."

"What happened?" There were some waiters walking hurriedly outside the yard.

"Miss Ji is suddenly ill." He replied.Seeing me looking towards the closed door, he said again: "Mr. Xi Lan has already gone to see it."

While talking, Sang Jiu came in from the courtyard, saw me, and walked over quickly, "Master Haitong, why don't you sleep more? But you were disturbed?"

Not really, it's just something on my mind.However, it is not easy to mention it, so I had to turn to ask: "How is Miss Ji?"

Sang Jiu replied with a smile: "Miss Ji will be fine, don't you still trust the master?"

"...Of course not!" I retorted unconsciously.After I finished speaking, I remembered what my master told me earlier, that City Lord Lu invited him here all the way.At that time, I didn't think about it carefully, but now I think of it, when the master said this, it seemed a bit... complaining? ...Is it me who is to blame?

I startled myself at the thought.

It just so happened that the outside gradually became quiet again, so Sang Jiu took a look at the sky, smiled at me and said, "Since it's still early, young master, do you want to rest for a while? Before leaving, the master specially asked the young one, saying that you slept late last night. , don't let anyone disturb you."

Master...

Thinking of Master, my other original thoughts had slipped away quietly, and I agreed without knowing it: "...that's fine."

Ning Fei continued: "I'll just stay here, you can rest at ease."

I agreed, but didn't leave immediately. After hesitating for a while, I still asked: "Xilan...do you have anything else to say to me?"

When Sang Jiu heard this, her brows moved slightly, as if surprised, and then she smiled deeply: "Yes, I almost forgot. The master asked the little one to tell you that the Gu in Miss Ji Yao's body is old. There must be danger in pulling it out, and he probably won't have time to go out with you in the past few days."

The author says:

"If that little heartless person still knows that he wants to miss me, tell him. It's fine if you don't ask. You don't need to mention it."
