"Don't get carried away."
Gu Qingsheng smiled, took out a handkerchief and wiped off the red mark, and immediately all his five senses returned to normal.
She took a deep breath, the room still filled with a faint smell of blood.
Gu...
At about the hour of Yin, a loud door slamming suddenly came from the next room.
The sound frightened Gu Qingsheng so much that he almost fell over in his sleep.
She opened her eyes, still feeling a little nervous, and glanced at the wall suspiciously.
Miao Lanlan was also woken up by this sound. Maybe because she had too little sleep, she was also a little angry and cursed.
"Damn it! This guy must be possessed by a ghost. He stayed up late at night to attack me. I was scared to death."
"You're just a lousy imperial teacher, and you think you're so great?! Pah!"
Ignoring Miao Lanlan's cursing, Gu Qingsheng walked to the door and opened it to look. As soon as she opened the door, she smelled the strong smell of alcohol. The lights next door were dim, and she was a little surprised.
Xu Qingyi came back drunk?
However, although she was surprised, it only lasted for a moment, and then she gently closed the door and returned to the couch.
I met Xu Qingyi twice during the day, and the look in his eyes probably showed that he didn't want me to meddle in his affairs.
But before he could fall asleep completely, a few muffled groans and cries of pain coming from next door made Gu Qingsheng's heart jump again.
She slapped her head, feeling a little annoyed. In the end, she held a small candlestick and knocked on the half-open door next door.
"Master, are you okay? I heard you from next door. You seemed unwell. Did you drink?"
There was no sound from inside for a long time. Gu Qingsheng waited for a while and knocked twice again.
"National Master?"
Although the door was not covered, Gu Qingsheng did not look inside and had no intention of pushing the door open.
She thought for a while, and was about to go back with the candlestick in her hand, but just after she turned around and took two steps, a strong force suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Then Gu Qingsheng screamed and was pulled into a cold embrace with his back turned away.
The candlestick in his hand was also thrown out and fell to the ground with a clang. The candle oil spilled all over the ground and quickly solidified on the ground.
A smell of blood and alcohol instantly came, and Gu Qingsheng subconsciously wanted to turn around, but what came from his ears was a man's forbearing and low voice.
"Don't look back, don't look at me."
She stopped looking back all of a sudden, her mouth stiffened, and she felt the person behind her holding her tighter.
"... Imperial Master... what's wrong with you... have you been drinking?"
"……No."
It was a long time before I heard Xu Qingyi say this.
His tone was clear, but the tightening force made Gu Qingsheng feel a little restrained.
I could feel the man's strong chest behind me and his warm breath in my ear.
Something in the air condensed and shattered, Xu Qingyi sighed softly.
"Were the words the princess said in the cold spring a joke?"
"The princess is making fun of me..."
These two sentences were like two cold spikes piercing into Gu Qingsheng's heart in this cold night.
She started to feel numb from her feet
"What do you mean by this?"
"...It means... that when the princess was in the capital, she favored General Chu. After arriving at Luofo Temple, she also met with Young Master Liu..."
"Then...what about me? What am I in the eyes of the princess?"
"Is it something that can be thrown away at will?"
"Is he someone who can be teased at will?"
In vain, the ending tone of this sentence carries a sense of grievance.
"Were all the things the princess said to me in the cold spring false?"
Gu Qingsheng was stunned. For some reason, he felt a little angry. A bitter feeling surged into his eyes. He forced himself to raise his head and let the tears roll in his eyes.
"What about me, Imperial Master?"
"Who am I?"
"Am I a cheap commodity in your eyes, someone you can summon and dismiss at will?"
"You repeatedly rejected me, yet repeatedly gave me hope, repeatedly hurt me, yet it seemed as if you cared about me every time."
"Who am I, Imperial Master?"
"You are hugging me now, and the intimacy makes me feel like it's a dream, but when I look back, I will definitely see your cold eyes."
It was obvious that Xu Qingyi's body shook when he heard these words.
"I am a human being made of flesh and blood, not a trial and error product of the national teacher's emotional entanglements."
"If you can't even face your own heart, what can you talk to me, the Imperial Master?"
"From the beginning to the end, if the Imperial Master asked me to go back, I would go back. If he rejected me, I would try to stay away from him. So what is the Imperial Master thinking now that he is hugging me?"
Gu Qingsheng knew that if she said these words, her relationship with Xu Qingyi might end here.
However, she couldn't resist the surge of emotions, so she took Xu Qingyi's hand away and picked up the candlestick without looking back.
"I don't want to hear General Chu's name a second time. As for Mr. Liu, he's just a good friend."
She just stood there.
When he said this, it seemed as if there was a huge abyss between him and the person behind him.
After returning to his room, Gu Qingsheng breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a sense of relief in his heart.
Even though I have decided to live a good life in this life, I still can't avoid encountering such things.
Shouldn't have touched the moon.
Once you touch it, you can't leave it.
When the moon rises again in the sky, what will her world be like then?
Miao Lanlan was surprisingly quiet and didn't make any noise this time. This made Gu Qingsheng feel a little abnormal, and he suddenly laughed.
"Why are you so nervous?"
After a while, Miao Lanlan slowly spoke, her tone was tangled and cold.
"Because I think what you said makes sense."
"but……"
but.
But what can I say about this?
Could she change anything? She could do nothing.
It was a long time later that she said to Gu Qingsheng
"Rub your back."
After hearing what Miao Lanlan said, Gu Qingsheng touched her from behind.
A hand stained with bright red blood, mixed with a faint aroma of wine.
…
When the wine was poured onto the bloody and hideous wound, Xu Qingyi shuddered all over.
The strong liquor continued to burn his flesh, and because the wound was extremely deep, the pain was no less than having his heart dug out and his bones cut open.
Gu Qingsheng's words just now flashed through his mind one by one, which even made the pain of the wine worse.
Feeling irritated, Xu Qingyi rubbed his brows and reached out to smash the bottle in his hand. However, the moment he raised his hand, he thought of Gu Qingsheng who had just returned to the next door, and slowly put it down.
Most of his body was covered in blood. He held his head with both hands, his brows lowered, and he kept pulling his inky hair as if in great pain.
Those voices in my ears rang again.
"A cursed child like you, anyone who gets close to you will become unfortunate."
"Don't like it, don't love it, you will kill those who care about you!"
