The flowers and trees in Ji Yao's yard are blooming very enthusiastically, and they are flourishing day by day, as if they know the life of the master's rejuvenation, they climb all over the branches without any scruples, which is extremely eye-catching.

Thanks to it, I saw the two figures under the tree at a glance.

Sitting and standing, facing each other.

They didn't know what they were talking about, but Ji Yao had a soft smile on her face, and she looked at Master with brisk joy in every look, like a summer lotus just unfolding in the wind, fresh and vigorous.

In the dim light and shadow, the master's eyebrows and eyes seem to have also coated the afterglow of the day with tenderness, and when he bowed his head, all of them fell on the girl who looked up at him.

I stopped abruptly, as if nailed in place.

It seemed that the pretty smiles of those maids just now sounded in my ears again, and I heard them say "the man is talented and the woman looks good" and "the two love each other".

……

I suddenly panicked.

If, if they are really what the maids said, how should I...

However, before I could find a way out in this chaos, Master noticed it first, and raised his eyes to look directly at me.

I seemed to be stabbed by that gaze, and I took a step back suddenly.

"Haitong?" Master raised his brows slightly and walked towards me, "Why are you here?"

I blinked.

The intimate scene under the tree just now dissipated with the movement of the master, as if everything was just my illusion.

However, although what I saw in front of me was gone, the picture was engraved in my mind, and I couldn't get it off.

"Why are you still in a daze?"

I came back to my senses, and I was looking into the smiling eyes of Master.

A sudden impulse rose in my heart, I wanted to ask if I was wrong, and I also wanted to ask if what the maids said was true, how are you and Ji Yao.

However, in just a moment, I thought of his gentle look when he bowed his head to Ji Yao just now.

Immediately became timid.

So I thought about it a lot, but in the end, I only answered "Nothing" in a low voice, and lowered my eyes, not daring to look any more.

"It's nothing..." He smiled lightly and repeated my words playfully.

I pursed my lips.

During the silence, Ji Yao came over, called me, then turned to look at the steward and said, "Brother, what's the matter?"

The steward hurriedly said: "Today's Lantern Festival, the young master would like to invite you to watch it with Mr. Xi Lan."

When Ji Yao heard this, she was overjoyed and said, "That's great, I'll go get ready now!" After saying that, she turned around and left happily.

I stared anxiously at the lines on the stone steps on the ground, and now I heard others talking, so I dared to take the opportunity to take a peek at him——

But I saw those eyes were cold and clear, and they were also looking at me.There was a few lingering smiles in his eyes, which concealed deeper emotions, so he became more and more unpredictable.

My heart skipped a beat, and I inexplicably remembered what happened the day before——

After Wen Lian gave me a sachet that day, she came here several times.

I didn't want to bother her like this, but I persuaded her not to move, and I read the broken sachet again, feeling ashamed in my heart, so I became more and more unwilling to persuade her, so I had to let her go.

When she came to look for me the day before yesterday, I happened to be listening to the rain under the eaves.

When she came, the breeze was blowing, mixed with fine rain, and the flowers on the branches were rolled down.One of the petals swirled in the wind for some reason, and came towards me.

I stared at the tips trembling with raindrops, slightly startled, and suddenly missed Xia Yu in Yangcheng.

Wen Lian came to me and greeted me with a smile.I looked at her, and was about to respond, when she suddenly raised her hand and reached out to me.

I froze, it was too late to dodge——

The next moment, she felt someone lightly touch her shoulder; when she looked again, a fallen flower was twirled between her fingers.

"My lord is absent-minded, what are you worrying about?"

It turns out that she just wanted to brush off the fallen flowers for me...

I immediately shy, shook my head, and said in a low voice, "Thank you."

She smiled and was about to speak, but someone stepped forward: "What are you doing?"

Master did not know when he had returned to the courtyard, holding a white umbrella, standing in the rain desertedly.

I turned my head abruptly, and before I could be happy, I met Master's cold eyes.

"Xilan..."

Holding an umbrella, he walked over step by step, and asked softly, "What are you doing?"

He laughed again, but there seemed to be a blizzard in his eyes, which were filled with the impatience before he ran out of patience.

However, when he approached, the deep storm seemed to have never passed.He tied up the umbrella leisurely, shook off the raindrops that had inadvertently stained his sleeves, looked up at Wen Lian, and said calmly: "Today is here too."

"Yes..." Wen Lian twisted her fingers nervously, her face turned pale.

"What else did you bring?" Master asked again.

"One, some gadgets..."

Master listened and smiled very lightly.

The laughter was clearly extremely light, but it was overwhelming.

After a long while, until Wen Lian trembled slightly, she heard the master say again slowly: "Troubleshooting."

Wen Lian froze all over, didn't dare to say anything more, gave me a timid look, and left hastily.

Wen Lian's figure had disappeared into the rain.I hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "Xilan..."

Master heard my voice and turned around.

I thought he was going to say something to me, but he looked at me for a while and said: "Go back."

Neither near nor far, neither hot nor cold——

Just like now, it is dark and difficult to see.

"Sir will go too?"

Ji Yao's joyful voice sounded, and I came back to my senses.

She had already left, but now she deliberately turned back, full of expectations.

The master withdrew his gaze from me, turned to Ji Yao, and said "hmm" slowly.

"That's very kind, sir!" the girl cheered, and she did not forget to tell her repeatedly before she left: "You have to wait for me."

"Ah."

I froze in place.Suddenly recalled the feeling of stealing food with a beggar when I was young, and being hit on the head with a sap... The pain came late, but I was already dizzy before my eyes.

Others are talking.

I listened and watched, but I couldn't hear or see.

...Only this time, I am not a beggar on the street, and naturally it is not my head that was injured.My heart twitched slightly, and strands of pain surged out, no matter how hard it was to stop.

This time the stick probably hit the heart.

Under the melting sky, the rising fireworks dragged their long tails; the rotating lanterns reflected smiling faces, and joyful prayers flowed along the river to the bright moon.

The meandering river bank sees no one watching the sky.

And the person who once told me to steal it seems to finally wake up tonight-since the crowd swarmed, he was taken away by the lively girl, and he never returned to me.

I cling to the lamp in my hand and turn around to look for it.

But seeing Yuyu under the lights, the girl didn't know what to say to him, he tilted his head to listen, and the gentleness that restrained his arrogance could be vaguely seen in his lowered eyebrows.

That scene was really dazzling, and it made my eye sockets astringent, and I was about to burst into tears.

"Haitong, how are you?" Someone beside him asked in a low voice.

"... I was dazzled by the light." I hoarse my voice.

Fortunately, there is so much noise here that no one notices such an insignificant anomaly.

The lights are shining brightly at night, making people's eyes blurred with tears; white-haired people travel far, and no one wants to cross the maze.

In the end, I have let down the magnificent scenery of Liancheng.
