Dongchuan is located west of the Fujiang River Basin in central Sichuan today, not less than a thousand miles away from Songshan Mountain.The two of them traveled for several days and came to Sichuan, and entered an inn at noon this day.

The two sat down for a while and were talking, when they suddenly heard two surprises from the side, but two people who looked like businessmen looked over, and when they saw Ye Nianjun, they looked happy, and they came over and said, "President, what are you doing?" Will it be here? Are you going to Dali too?"

One of these two businessmen is called Lu Mengcheng and the other is called Han Fang. They are both Ye Nian's assistants in the Dali Middle School business.She smiled slightly when she saw the two of them, and said, "No, I went to other places to do some private affairs. Didn't you rush back to Dali a few days ago?"

Lu Mengcheng and Han Fang looked at each other. It was Ye Nian's idea to move the business to Dali. She was also responsible for the business and human relations. This time, she went to Dali to deal with important business transactions, but she was in a hurry. When they came back to Song Dynasty, they didn't take care of some things in a hurry. The two of them had a lot of troubles, but now they couldn't complain. They just euphemistically raised some difficulties and asked Ye Nian's opinion.

The three of them talked now.Xiao Feng was listening at the side, he didn't understand and was not interested, so he just drank by himself and kept silent.Ye Nian glanced at the corner of his eyes, paused for a moment, and said to the two of them, "I didn't finish this matter, and I tired you both. You have never dealt with Mr. Duan, so it's a bit difficult. Let's leave it at that. Write a letter and take it with you two, if it doesn’t work, I’ll go there next time, how about it?”

Lu Mengcheng originally wanted to convince her to go to Dali together, but he had no choice but to agree to her.At this time, the food was already on the table, and it was not convenient to write, so Ye Nian and him went to find a clean table next to him.Han Fang stayed behind, looked at Xiao Feng a few times, and said, "Is Xiongtai from the Jianghu?"

Xiao Feng said, "Not bad."

"This is a bit strange." Han Fang laughed, "I thought the president didn't like to associate with people in the martial arts world." Seeing that the other party only glanced at him, without asking why, he said, "Are you friends? "

Xiao Feng drank up the wine in the bowl, poured another bowl casually, and said, "So what if we're friends?"

"Don't you know that you will eat less spicy food?" Han Fang glanced at the dishes on the table, and smiled slightly, "I think you don't know her very well, she will always feel uncomfortable after eating spicy food, even beef and pork. I don’t eat much, so in the past when we ate together, I only paid attention to ordering some light dishes. Although most of the dishes here are heavy, it’s not that there are no light dishes. You order the dishes on this table, but what do you call her? be able to eat?"

Xiao Feng heard that his tone deliberately showed closeness to Ye Nian, and felt a little unhappy. At the same time, he also thought that what she ordered were all his favorite dishes. No wonder she didn't eat much at ordinary times. I thought it was her appetite. Xiao, there is such a reason that he didn't even drink wine for a while, stared at the dishes on the table in a daze, and didn't pay attention to what the people next to him said.

When Ye Nian came back, he saw Xiao Feng's complexion changed, and saw that he frowned slightly when he heard Han Fang talking about walking together for a while, secretly wondering what Han Fang said just now to offend him, so he politely rejected the two of them immediately, and went with him. Xiao Feng continued on his way after eating.In this way, at night, when we didn't meet the dorm again, we lit a fire by the wild river and settled down to rest.

Ye Nian asked, "Brother Xiao, did that person say anything during the day that made you angry?"

Xiao Feng said, "It's nothing, I just don't like dealing with these businessmen."

Ye Nian smiled and said, "I'm also a businessman."

Xiao Feng glanced at her and said, "You don't beat around the bush like them, it's different."

Ye Nian raised the corner of his mouth, thinking that I only treat you differently, if I treat everyone like this, I'm afraid that even my bones have already been dismantled.

Xiao Feng looked at the faint smile on her lips, and thought in his heart, although he decided not to ask any more questions, but he always showed a little indifference when facing her, firstly, he always had doubts in his heart, and secondly, he felt a little indifferent towards her. After all, her deceit was grievous. These days, it's not that she can't feel the care and pleasing to him, but she just doesn't want to forgive and change anything.I have always been tolerant towards others, even my hatred towards Xuanci and Zhiguang can fade away, but why do I treat her so harshly?He also vaguely thought that perhaps the closer he was to the person he cared about, the less he could tolerate the slightest concealment and deception.

Seeing that the steamed buns on the fire were slightly browned, Ye Nian saw that Xiao Feng seemed to be in a trance, secretly wondering what he was thinking, and distractedly went to fetch the steamed buns, but felt hot as soon as he took them in, and let go with a low cry.

Suddenly a hand reached out to catch it, Xiao Feng divided the steamed bun in half and put it aside to cool, he grabbed her palm and spread it out, seeing her fingers were as white as jade, but their fingertips were reddish, he sighed softly, "You don't want to go Busy about your own affairs, but accompany me to go all the way to find someone, why bother?" I knew that with Ye Nian's personality, if it wasn't for himself, he wouldn't bother with such trivial matters.

"Working harder is better than worrying about it all day long." Ye Nian's words were not for the sake of sweet words, the feeling of emptiness and helplessness during the time of being separated from Xiao Feng was far more than the hardships of the journey.

Hearing what she said directly, Xiao Feng raised his head and smiled suddenly.A man with a heart, he decides what he decides, how can he make her feel uncomfortable by relying on her liking?Thinking of this, the doubts and barriers that had been in my heart for many days were finally let go.

Ye Nian felt that there seemed to be some subtle changes between his smiles, but he couldn't explain clearly.Seeing him take the water bag and open it, pour some cold water on her red-hot fingertips, she suddenly felt the pain relieved a lot, her eyes shifted to his chiseled face, and after a little hesitation, she asked, "Brother Xiao, you... Don't you blame your father?" This question has been kept in her heart since she was reading a book, and she finally asked it at this time.

Xiao Feng said, "What do I blame him for?"

Ye Nian was taken aback, thinking that he murdered and committed crimes and framed you, ruining your reputation and making you unable to gain a foothold in the world, isn't that enough reason?But it is not easy to say this.

Xiao Feng put the water bag away, looked at her, smiled lightly, and said, "I know what you're thinking, it's true that I'm from Khitan, and this alone dooms me not to be tolerated by people from Central Plains martial arts."

Seeing his calm expression, Ye Nian somehow remembered the anger and helplessness he felt when he mentioned that he was a Khitan in the first conversation, and felt in a daze that after more than half a year, this person in front of him seemed to have matured a lot.Listen to him continue, "At the beginning when Quan Guanqing framed me for killing Ma Dayuan, if it wasn't because of my Khitan identity, how could he easily incite the gang to fight against me? Unfortunately, I was not thinking about it at that time, only thinking about these years All my efforts are in vain, self-deprecating and hurting myself, and I really underestimate myself." After a while, he sighed, "If I am an ordinary martial artist, I will be fine, but it happens that I have some reputation and status, and I am more similar to the Central Plains. The warriors have a deep hatred, how can they not be guarded against and suspected, get rid of them and then be safe? For decades, I have regarded myself as a Han and regarded the Khitans as enemies. Even if I know my situation, how can I immediately turn my face and kill the Song people and deal with them ruthlessly? Former friends and brothers?"

Ye Nian frowned and said, "You can't be cruel, but others can be cruel to kill you." As soon as the words came out, he understood what he meant by saying these words.Recalling the scene in the apricot forest, and in the book when he was merciful at Juxian Village but was almost killed by everyone, he thought that with Xiao Feng's character of emphasizing love and righteousness, unless he was driven to a dead end, how could he make a move? kill.His heart moved, leaving aside his motives, he felt that Xiao Yuanshan's actions might not be completely wrong.

Xiao Feng said, "My father probably thinks the same way. If I have no way out, I will be like a caged animal. I have to fight hard. It's just that his behavior is a little extreme, even my adoptive parents and mentors who are kind to me don't think so." Remove them altogether, although I can't agree with his actions, I can't blame him." The brows gradually became a little heavy, and he said, "My father has lost his wife and children for many years, I really can't imagine the pain he bears. And hatred, as a son, not being able to share the slightest bit with him is already extremely unfilial, how dare you have any more resentment?"

Ye Nian thought to himself that when he talked to Xiao Yuanshan back then, he only said that he wanted to force him to make up his mind to be an enemy of the Central Plains Wulin, he didn't say that he was intentionally framed, but he thought about it and decided so.Xiao Feng has a bright personality, but what he sees and thinks of is another side.But now the truth is no longer important, she comforted, "How can you be unfilial if you don't know the inside story? What's more, Uncle Xiao has put down his hatred and gained peace now, and you don't need to blame yourself."

Hearing this, Xiao Feng said with a dazed expression on his face, "My father has let go of him, but I don't know what to do?" He has not experienced life and death, and he has not gained a complete understanding. Facing this deep hatred that has lasted for decades but disappeared in an instant , and with what mentality should he face it?

Seeing his perplexity and fragility on his usually mature and resolute face, Ye Nian couldn't help but feel distressed, leaned over and took his arm, and said, "Brother Xiao, if you don't know what to do in the future, you can go to Dali with me first." , okay? Although Dali is a small country, there is no war at all. Second, you don’t have hatred for the Khitan people. Third, your righteous brother is in Dali, so you can get together more often. In this way, it’s no better than staying here Is Song happy?"

Xiao Feng heard her words were all for his own sake, and his words were sincere with a bit of sincerity, he couldn't help turning his head to look at her, and saw that her eyes were shining with fire, some small light, condensing a lot of tenderness and affection.Under such gazes, the daze and anxiety in his heart gradually dissipated, replaced by the awakening of some dormant emotion, which moved him slightly.If he couldn't be sure about the past of the two of them, at this moment, he was very clearly aware of his temptation.
