Hot water washed away fatigue and eased the mood. Ye Zhenge stepped out of the bathtub to wipe it off, put on clean clothes and lay down next to Xi Xiu, closed his eyes and smiled: "Have you learned how to pretend to be asleep?"

"Not being able to fall asleep is not pretending to be asleep," Xi Xiu said, looking at the person next to the pillow, "Why are you looking for him urgently?"

"Him?" Ye Zhenge opened his lips slightly.

Thinking that the other party really didn't understand, Xi Xiu added: "Your foster brother."

With a faint sigh, Ye Zhenge turned over and faced the young man, and said, "Why don't you call him by his name directly?"

"What does he have to do with me?" Ever since Shen Chuxing appeared, Xi Xiu had realized that Ye Zhenge no longer had only himself in his eyes, which made him quite depressed and had no liking for Shen Chuxing.

Picking up a strand of Xi Xiu's hair and twisting it lightly between his fingers, Ye Zhenge said: "You and I were also strangers at the beginning. Although we met by fate, if we don't cherish it, we won't be able to stay together today. Getting along with others is like a mirror. The farther you are from him, the further you will find that he is also farther away from you. Whether Shen Chuxing is worth making friends is naturally up to you to judge, but I don't want you to reject people thousands of miles from the beginning. "

Xi Xiu didn't know much about it, and said impulsively: "I don't like him, but I want to get close to him?"

"Did you like me at first sight?" Hearing the childish speech, Ye Zhenge couldn't help laughing.

Xi Xiu nodded hastily, and stubbornly believed that she liked the other party at first sight!

As if he didn't expect him to answer like this, after a moment of silence, Ye Zhenge turned around and said: "Since you leave the valley, you will no longer be isolated from the world. You can't face many variables on your own, so true friends are very precious."

Xi Xiu leaned into his arms and said sullenly, "I don't need friends, I just want you."

Gently rubbed his chin against the top of Xi Xiu's hair, and pulled the thin quilt over his shoulders, Ye Zhenge comforted him, "Don't let your wild thoughts go to sleep, you have to catch a boat tomorrow."

It was almost noon when Xi Xiu just woke up, this sleep really relieved her fatigue, she got out of bed refreshed, looking around, Ye Zhenge was sitting at the table drinking tea with his back to him.

"How are you resting?" Hearing the movement, Ye Zhenge got up and faced him.

After removing the plain clothes, Ye Zhenge resumed his usual elegant and graceful attire. The light beige silk gown, embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns on the lapel, and narrow sleeves and cinched waist made his figure look particularly tall.

Xi Xiu was fascinated by it for a moment, as if Ye Zhenge was surrounded by a faint white light, quietly pulling him closer.He raised his left hand and pressed the full lips with his thumb, and the little red mole became more vivid as he rubbed it.Xi Xiu doesn't know how to talk about love, but the means of flirting are inherent in men.

"Nonsense." Pushing away the disturbing action, Ye Zhenge smiled faintly.

"I just want to be with you so far, isn't that considered lover's love?" Xi Xiu stared straight at him, with an imperceptible tremor in her voice.

Dazed for a moment, Ye Zhenge looked at Xi Xiu, not as enthusiastic and straightforward as the other party, his eyes contained a bit of temptation to refuse or welcome: "It's different from family affection and friendship, and only two people are allowed if you have a special liking for each other. You can't change your mind if you make an oath."

"I won't change my mind!" Xi Xiu said immediately.

"It's not that I don't trust you, it's that you have only been out of the valley for a short time, and you will meet more people in the future."

"Does this have anything to do with my liking for you?"

"You said you liked me at first sight, but I don't know whether I should be happy or not. Is it the person you liked at first sight, or me? I'm afraid you can't tell right now. But one day you will understand, understand What do you want, and if you find out that I was not your sincere choice, how can you face the rash oath you once made?"

"I--"

"You will be in pain," Ye Zhenge said with his palm lightly on Xi Xiu's chest, "but I don't want you to be in pain."

As soon as she grasped the hand on her chest, Xi Xiu frowned and said, "You don't want me to suffer, what about you? You like me but don't allow me to like you, so you don't suffer?"

"I'm older than you, so I should think more about you."

Heart tightly clenched into a ball, Xi Xiu stretched out his arms and embraced him, gritted his teeth and said, "Why do you make decisions about my affairs?"

Feeling the intense heartbeat from the other party close to his chest, Ye Zhenge lowered his eyes and said softly: "Xi Xiu... I'm so afraid that you will hate me in the future, hate me for being too selfish..."

"How can I hate you if I like you?!"

"yes……"

Letting go of her embrace, Xi Xiu nodded vigorously: "Yes! We will be husband and wife in the future, and I will always guard and protect you!"

"Husband and wife?" Blinking, Ye Zhenge laughed, "Husband?"

Although she was dissatisfied with his attitude, the "husband" was very helpful to Xi Xiu, and she put her arms around him again, and said, "Can I kiss you now?"

"No—" Ye Zhenge's lip was bitten before he finished speaking.

Xi Xiu bared her teeth, half threatening and half joking, "I hear what excuses you can come up with, if you can't convince me, I'll make you look good!"

"Shouldn't you say this before asking me to look good?" Ye Zhenge said with a bitter face, "From now on, you don't need to ask if it's okay."

One moment it was so cold that there was nothing on earth, but the next moment she wished she could have a fluffy tail and get into the other party's arms to have fun. Xi Xiu couldn't wait and was very proud, but as soon as she closed her eyes and tasted the softness, she heard a "bang" sound from the door!

The astonishment only stayed on the baby's face for a moment, and he closed the door behind his back with the oiled paper bag, Shen Chuxing said without embarrassment: "See no evil, I didn't see anything."

After Xi Xiu finished washing, he sat in front of the bronze mirror and combed his hair. He kept moving his hands, but his eyes fixed on the person behind him through the mirror.

If people could be killed by looking at them, Shen Chuxing reckoned that he would have no bones left.

The undercurrent is raging on either side, and Ye Zhenge stays out of it.He opened the oiled paper bag and took out a thin letter from under several bags of snacks. After confirming the authenticity of the seal and rewrapping it with two layers of oiled paper, he put it safely into his sleeve pocket.

On the surface, Guixiangyuan is a snack shop, but in the dark it is the stronghold for news exchanges between Wuyoufang and the Ye family.

Ye Zhenge believes that Ying Ling will never ignore the overall situation, but he will not forgive others if he can't let go of his anger.He had no choice but to give away the fan that he had carried with him for ten years. The value of this fan was not about the value. Ying Ling won back a bit of face, but had to go down the stairs to return the property to the original owner through Guixiang Garden.

Having settled his mind, Ye Zhenge walked towards Xi Xiu with a relaxed expression on his face, Xi Xiu didn't take care of her hair for a long time, but he tied it neatly with a hair tie.He looked at the young man from the bronze mirror, his eyes full of affection.

Shen Chuxing took a bite of his snack, and said sadly, "Is Guixiangyuan not going to start a business? There is no mung bean in the mung bean cake, it's full of sugar, it's too sweet."

Ye Zhenge lowered his eyes and smiled, as if a little embarrassed.

Xi Xiu stepped forward, picked up the mung bean cake and stuffed it into her mouth, glanced at Shen Chuxing and then at Ye Zhenge, and pointed out: "Is it sweet? Tell me it's not as good as my wife."

Shen Chuxing was startled, and suddenly lay trembling all over on the table. After a long time, his face blushed and he raised his head, cupped his hands, and said respectfully: "I have eyes that don't know Mount Tai, and Xi Shaoxia is an extraordinary person." Laugh away.

If you don't guess, you know that the days ahead will be sad...

Ye Zhenge has always been cautious in his words and deeds, but Shen Chuxing is not afraid of anything, he has done a lot of messy things and left countless "hacks".Now that he has finally grabbed his braid, the son of a dignified family is actually called his wife by a man, what an anecdote?Ye Zhenge could almost imagine that he bet Ying Ling on this novelty.

"I did it on purpose. I don't want you to mind him so much." The culprit dismissed it and dragged Ye Zhenge to him.

Without any intention of reproach, Ye Zhenge smiled and said: "I am the same brother as Chu Qing, and there can be more than one brother, but you are unique and no one can replace you. What's more..." Ye Zhenge gently kissed Xi Xiu on the cheek. Looking at him tenderly, he said, "This matter can only be done with you."
