Beauty is sick

The windows in the room are open, the wind is rustling, the cries of ghosts are blown into the room, and the thin candle lamps are flickering, illuminating the faces of people indistinctly, revealing a little ghostly meaning.

Pei Zhe raised it in his throat and almost didn't come up: "You, are you going to scare me to death?!"

Jin Lingjiu held a candle in one hand, leaned on the door with the other, and looked at him quietly: "I just heard a voice, and I was about to go out to have a look, but I didn't know you would come?"

His tone was relaxed, with a bit of lightness, which was two extremes of Pei Zhe's nervousness.

The cries of ghosts outside the window continued, and the wind was a little strong, which suddenly extinguished the candle lamp.

The two stood at the door and stared wide-eyed, they could only see blurred shadows of each other, which was particularly creepy.

Pei Zhe grabbed Jin Lingjiu's arm and said relentlessly, "Didn't I tell you during the day that I will come over when I am done with work."

"Is there?" Jin Lingjiu pursed his lips in the darkness, pretending not to care, and said, "I don't remember."

Pei Zhe let out a dissatisfied "tsk", and said with a strange air: "You are such a noble person who forgets things a lot. If an insignificant person like me doesn't show up a few times, I guess I will be forgotten in a corner."

The gloom in Jin Lingjiu's heart was swept away, he retracted his arms, and took Pei Zhe two steps towards the room: "You are the one who has a lot, don't bother with a bad-minded person like me."

Pei Zhe rolled his eyes: "If your brain is not good, then what is Lin Jingkong?"

Commander Lin's mind suffered too much from Pei Zhe, and Jinling Jiuyi felt sympathetic to him for a while, and didn't laugh out loud: "You can't say that."

Pei Zhe asked leisurely: "Then I will listen to you whatever you say."

There was the sound of a door being knocked next to it, followed by footsteps.

Jin Lingjiu reacted quickly, dragged Pei Zhe into the room, and then blocked the door by himself, blocking Pei Zhe with his body.

Mu Jiao came out from the room, the soft sword in her hand was shining with a silvery sharp light, she seemed to have drawn a sharp blade, with a sharp murderous look all over her body: "Brother, you were woken up too?"

The door of the room was ajar, and Pei Zhe was pressed against one of the doors. When he turned around, he would face the person at the door. Jin Lingjiu put one arm on top of his head, bent slightly, just covering him.

"Well, it's a bit noisy." Jin Lingjiu asked calmly, "You want to go out?"

Mu Jiao gritted her teeth: "Even if I don't sleep today, I must arrest this pretender! Senior brother, please rest quickly, I will leave this matter to me!"

Mu Jiao has never believed in ghosts and gods. There have been many strange things in the world, and her courage has been tempered.

With her martial arts, nothing would happen, Jin Lingjiu didn't stop her: "Be careful."

After Mu Jiao left, Jin Lingjiu closed the door and was about to go in when he was stopped.

Pei Zhe leaned lazily against the door, pulled his sleeve, smiled lightly, and asked, "Does it look like we're having an affair?"

Jin Lingjiu changed into the clothes he wore when he was sleeping, and the cuffs were very narrow. His wrist bones were thinner than those of ordinary men, and he looked empty at first.

He lowered his head slightly, and accurately found Pei Zhe's eyes in the dark: "I won't have an affair with you."

Pei Zhe secretly laughed, Jin Lingjiu was probably the one who talked about adultery most seriously.

He couldn't help but want to tease this serious man, he poked his nimble fingers into his cuffs, and drew a circle on Jin Lingjiu's protruding wrist bones: "Why don't you have an affair with me? Is it because I am not good-looking? Or is it Mr. Jiu?" Look down on me?"

A piece of skin on the wrist was scratched and itched and numb, as if burned by a candle, Jin Lingjiu couldn't help shaking, and said angrily, "No."

Pei Zhe asked persistently: "Why not? Why not? A wife is worse than a concubine, and a concubine is worse than stealing. You have to give me a reason, otherwise you will look down on me and look down on me, then we can't have a good chat." ..."

Jin Lingjiu got a headache from his nagging, and thought to himself that you probably didn't want to have a good chat in the first place!

He withdrew his hand forcefully, turned around quickly and walked into the room, and at the same time threw down a sentence indistinctly: "I don't think much of you? I just think too much of you!"

Pei Zhe raised his eyebrows, too condescending?

He had a speculation in his heart, but he was too shameless, even his kind of shamelessness was not easy to bear, so he didn't dare to think about it, and just silently chewed Jin Lingjiu's answer again.

The candles were relit and the room became brighter.

Jin Lingjiu stood by the table and looked back.

His brows and eyes were half down, and the slim white underwear outlined his thin figure. The moonlight coming in from the window was colder, stroking his hair gently with the chilly coolness.

Pei Zhe choked for breath, his slightly curled fingers tightened all of a sudden, and all messy thoughts were thrown away.

Jin Lingjiu turned around slowly, propped one hand on the table, leaned against the table lazily, and looked at him quietly: "Okay, let's get down to business, Mr. Pei visited in the middle of the night, why?"

Pei Zhe let out a long breath, closed his eyes, and suppressed the surging blood.

He is a very particular scholar, he has never learned how to take care of others in the first half of his life, he doesn't show face when he sees anyone, and the arrogance that shakes the drum with three strikes is carved into his bones. It can make him unbearable.

In the first half of his life, he was calm, but in an instant he was frivolous. Everyone said that his illness came like a mountain. Pei Zhe felt that Jinlingjiu seemed to be a piece of his illness. He had been ill for many years and hadn't recovered yet.

"What kind of business is this? You're the one who doesn't talk about business." Pei Zhe sighed, "Speaking on your own conscience, are you seducing me? You don't want to have an affair with me, but you always want to seduce me, Mr. Ninth, okay? Make sense."

He went straight to the window, closed the window, shut out the moonlight and cold wind, and left him alone with Jin Lingjiu.

Jin Lingjiu said: "Don't talk nonsense."

Because he was not sure that Jinling Jiujie didn't mind being shared with others, Pei Zhe didn't sit on the bed hastily, but just stood aside and said in a good temper: "Okay, okay, I've said it before, and I still pretend to be confused, so I can only go along with it." Looking at you, let me explain the purpose of coming again, isn't this here to coax you to sleep."

Unexpectedly, he would climb up the pole, Jinling Jiuyi didn't know how to answer.

Pei Zhewen said in a low voice: "It's late at night, aren't you still sleepy? Your eyes are blue, and if you want to lose your temper and play tricks, come back tomorrow, okay?"

There was no trace of sleepiness on Jin Lingjiu's face, Pei Zhe could tell at a glance that he was not asleep tonight.

After being exposed, Jin Lingjiu didn't feel ashamed, and walked to the bed generously: "It's so late, why don't you accompany my colleagues? I'm afraid that my small temple won't be able to accommodate your big Buddha."

Pei Zhe raised his eyebrows: "What colleague? Lin Jingkong?"

Jin Lingjiu choked, and suddenly felt that he was so boring: "It's nothing."

"Commander Lin and I just met by chance, so how can we be as good as the ninth son?" Pei Zhe sighed pretendingly, "I will never see Commander Lin again when I leave Huaizhou City in the future, but you are different, Mr. Jiu. together."

Jin Lingjiu: "Who said we want to be together?"

Pei Zhe smiled: "Although I don't dare to claim to be able to read people's hearts, I can still see a thing or two. What Jiu Gongzi did in this trip should be related to me."

Jin Lingjiu frowned: "Pei Zhe, you—"

Pei Zhe interrupted him: "There is no need to explain, I naturally know that you are not as sincere to me as I am to you, but no matter what the intention is, we will always have a bright future."

No matter how awkward these words sounded, Jin Lingjiu frowned, feeling panicked in his heart.

What do you mean by "You are as sincere to me as I am to you", he could hear that there was something in Pei Zhe's words.

Pei Zhe took advantage of the situation and sat on the bed, stretched his waist, and smiled warmly: "I only hope that this chess piece of mine can be used by you as you like."

Well, there is no need to say that there is something in the words, this sentence is even more ear-piercing, and it is straightforward.

Being humble is not suitable for a flirtatious Tanhualang, Jin Lingjiu was made uncomfortable by these few words, and always felt like a heartless person whose wife and son were abandoned.

Jin Lingjiu couldn't refute anything, everything he did and planned, in the final analysis, wasn't he just taking advantage of Pei Zhe?

He couldn't tell clearly what he thought about Pei Zhe, and he always felt that he shouldn't just use it, but he couldn't accurately distinguish more emotions for a while.He has never cared about others, and he doesn't understand what caring is. He enjoys the tension with Pei Zhe, but he doesn't know that his tolerance for Pei Zhe has already passed the limit.

He is clear about what he wants and those possessive desires, but he is not sure if that is what people usually mean by admiration and liking.

After Jin Lingjiu came back to his senses, Pei Zhe had already sat on the inner side of the bed, and asked enthusiastically, "Which side are you used to?"

Enthusiastic, as if those words just now were not what he said.

Jin Lingjiu was stunned for two seconds, his thoughts were rarely taken away, and he began to think about Pei Zhe's question.

But after thinking about it, he realized that something was wrong. He was not used to being on either side, and he was not used to sleeping with others. He couldn't bear it in a room, let alone a bed.

Pei Zhe waited for a while but didn't see his answer, so he decided: "You stay inside, I don't sleep well, don't kick you down."

He was too eager, Jin Lingjiu couldn't refuse at all, and was directly dragged into the bed.

The cries of ghosts outside the window stopped at some point, and a candle flame burned to the end, slowly extinguished, and the surrounding area became dark.

Jin Lingjiu lay on the bed well-behaved, face up.

Pei Zhe, who was next to him, had already fallen asleep, and said he wanted to coax people to sleep, but ended up touching the pillow himself, which was easily reminiscent of an animal.

Hearing the slight breathing sound from beside him, Jin Lingjiu felt drowsy. He thought in a daze that Pei Zhe really slept peacefully, which was more effective than the soothing incense he had used before.

After he fell asleep, the sleeping Pei Zhe slowly turned over, faced him, and opened his eyes.

The bed was dim, and it was not very clear, only the outline could be vaguely seen.

Those words just said were intentional, pawns and use.

He didn't want to reveal the calm between the two of them, but too many things happened today, the things Jun Shuci found out, the things about Gu Yiqu, and the things about Fu Qingliu, all made him feel restless and didn't want to Hearing Jin Lingjiu say some cold words again, even if it was deliberately pretended.

Pei Zhe secretly sighed.

Judging from tonight's situation, Jin Lingjiu is still soft-hearted towards him.

His plan has already started, and it is impossible to stop it because of personal affairs. According to what Jun Shuci found, the two are bound to confront each other head-on, and it is not known whether they can maintain this soft-heartedness in the future.

Although the two of them were plotting against each other, Pei Zhe always felt guilty and couldn't help but want to treat Jin Lingjiu better in order to make up for it.

He called this kind of thinking, feeling sorry after being owed something.

On the first night of co-sleeping, nothing happened.

The next morning, it was Jin Lingjiu who woke up first. After hearing the breathing of another person beside him, his first reaction was to retreat, to distance himself, and to hold the thin blade between his fingertips. .

The blade touched Pei Zhe's jugular artery, and after a short distance, Jin Lingjiu came back to his senses in an instant, remembering what happened last night, and silently withdrew his hand.

He hasn't gotten used to sleeping with him yet, recalling it now, he was also disturbed by Pei Zhe's words last night, so he let this person sleep on his side in a daze.

It's not too much annoyance, after all, I slept well.

"Are you awake? What time is it?"

Pei Zhe was very alert and woke up when Jin Lingjiu made a move. He instinctively wanted to hide, but thinking of what would happen after he hid, he forcibly held back.

Looking at it now, luckily he didn't act rashly, Jin Lingjiu should be just a conditioned reflex, and didn't really want to attack him.

Jin Lingjiu sat up and looked at the window: "It's already dawn."

Pei Zhe stretched his shoulders and neck: "I woke up a bit late, as expected, a spring night is worth a thousand gold, and it's late for a beauty to wake up on the couch."

Jinling Nine: "..."

Taking advantage of Mu Jiao's absence, Jin Lingjiu and Pei Zhe quickly packed up and left the inn together.

In this matter, the two people's actions are very synchronized, they coincidentally, and they don't want others to find out that they slept together last night.

Looking for a place to eat nearby, Pei Zhe moved to Jinling Jiu, looking for a clean and tidy restaurant.

While eating, I heard someone chatting next to me, talking about the crying in the past two nights.

"Have you heard, it was haunted again last night, and Gu Yiqu came back to seek revenge."

"Gu Yiqu? Hasn't she been dead for more than ten years, and she came back to seek revenge, who to seek revenge?"

"Who knows, didn't someone die in the nephrite jade hall a few days ago? I heard that it was related to her, and the cry at night was also mysterious. I heard that the government has already found the master and is going to dig up her grave. .”

……

The person who yelled the loudest was probably found by Lin Jingkong.

Pei Zhe shook his head secretly, staring at Jin Lingjiu intently.

Jin Lingjiu asked, "See what I do?"

Pei Zhe glanced at the person talking next to him, and asked, "Do you think what they said is true or false?"

"Whether it's true or not, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with me." Jin Lingjiu paused and shrugged, "If you're asking for my opinion, I hope your trick works, so that I can leave Ye earlier. the city."

Pei Zhe laughed, he knew he couldn't hide it from Jin Lingjiu.

The two of them didn't talk when they ate, and they didn't pay attention to what other people were talking about.

Pei Zhe finished eating first, resting his chin on both hands, like a child, without any appearance of an official: "Is it delicious?"

Jin Lingjiu swallowed what was in his mouth, without lifting his eyelids: "I'll answer you after I finish eating."

As he spoke, he picked up another chopstick and ate food and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Can't you answer me first?" Pei Zhe dissatisfied with being ignored, "tsk", "Anyway, it's a matter of one sentence, what can hinder you?"

Jin Lingjiu ignored him, and didn't reply until the meal was over: "It's not a one-sentence thing, you don't have the temperament to simply ask 'is it delicious', if I talk to you, you will definitely ask other questions , I have no head, it will hinder me, hinder me from eating."

Pei Zhe choked, unable to refute, because what Jin Lingjiu said was absolutely correct, what he originally wanted to ask was another matter.

Jin Lingjiu wiped his mouth clean and lifted his chin: "Now you can ask."

Pei Zhe murmured: "I want to ask what is the matter with the fragrance on your body. I have smelled it since the first time I saw you. I slept together last night and dreamed about it."

Jin Lingjiu had a strange expression: "...dream?"

Pei Zhe nodded: "I dreamed that plum blossoms were all over the mountain, and it was snowing heavily."

Jin Lingjiu froze, unable to tell whether it was disappointment or happiness: "That's how it is."

Pei Zhe looked at him suspiciously: "Otherwise, what do you think I dreamed?"

Seeing that Pei Zhe's gaze became more and more complicated, Jin Lingjiu hurriedly said: "That incense is sold in many places, and it is rare in the capital city. It's normal if you haven't seen it."

Pei Zhe looked at him with interest: "Really?"

Jin Lingjiu suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of powerlessness: "Yes..."

Pei Zhe smiled, and nodded slowly: "Okay, yes, yes, I listen to you, what you said is right."

Jinling Nine: "..."

Damn it!You might as well be a mute!

The author has something to say:

One more.

Xiao Jiu'er: I won't have an affair with you.

Xiao Tanhua: Okay, okay, we have to be aboveboard.
