What is the one-character name (6)
The woman in a green dress with a goose yellow headband tied on her high ponytail was Xu Xing.
She was wondering why she met Xu Xing here, and he took off his clothes casually, leaving only his undershirt.
Li Zhaoyue's eyes widened into copper bells, but he was just a step too slow. Xu Xing had already taken off his inner clothes, revealing his strong and sturdy skin.
ah!
Li Zhaoyue hurriedly covered his eyes, and in a panic he lost his balance and almost fell off the beam.
She didn’t know if it was her illusion, but Xu Xing seemed to laugh.
The sound of clothes rubbing against each other was heard in the room. After a while, Li Zhaoyue dared to open his hands and look down quietly through the gap.
Xu Xing had changed into a moon-white, wide-sleeved robe and sat at the desk, picking up a book and beginning to read. She looked left and right, and after confirming that Xu Xing really couldn't see her, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Zhaoyue carefully changed his posture, thinking about how to get down from above. The easiest way might be to jump directly down.
But she looked down hesitantly.
It was too high. If she jumped down like that, she would be smashed into a pulp. But she was just a soul now, and souls were very light. She would definitely not get hurt if she jumped down like that.
Yes, let’s try jumping down. We can’t stay on the beam forever.
Li Zhaoyue swallowed his saliva, and after a long and tense psychological struggle, he closed his eyes, made up his mind, and fell down.
A breeze blew through the room, knocking down some of the papers Xu Xing had placed on the table. Li Zhaoyue slumped down into the pile of papers, peering out blankly.
It really didn't seem to hurt. She rolled over in joy, climbed out of the pile of papers, and shook off the scraps of paper that had stuck to her body.
A piece of paper covered in words slowly descended from the sky, landing squarely in Li Zhaoyue's outstretched palm. She sighed in confusion and peered intently.
"Li Zhaoyue had never seen Xu Xing like this before. Incomprehensible emotions swirled in the boy's dark eyes. It was extremely dangerous..."
Almost instantly, her cheeks were ripe.
Li Zhaoyue threw the paper in his hand to the ground and looked angrily at Xu Xing who was sitting there reading a book.
Just now, she was on the beam and too far away. Seeing Xu Xing's calm appearance, she thought he was reading a serious book. Unexpectedly, it was the storybook she wrote that day!
This guy is such a bastard!
Li Zhaoyue couldn't stand Xu Xing, nor the papers scattered on the ground, so he simply picked up the papers on the left and right, finally filling his arms with papers and preparing to run to the window to throw them away. At this moment, Xu Xing suddenly stood up and walked towards Li Zhaoyue.
No way? Would she be discovered? Li Zhaoyue was so nervous that she dared not move, her two big eyes staring straight at Xu Xing like a frightened rabbit.
Snap——
Xu Xing closed the window, returned to the wooden chair, picked up the book and started reading.
The frightened rabbit immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
No, Li Zhaoyue suddenly glanced at Xu Xing. It was Xu Xing who was reading this storybook, so why would she, the one being framed, feel guilty?
It was obviously Xu Xing who should feel guilty.
Thinking of this, Li Zhaoyue suddenly felt emboldened. He swaggered over to Xu Xing's desk and slammed it down. Then, he stared at Xu Xing warily, and when he saw he didn't react, he smiled triumphantly.
"Ahem," she cleared her throat, pretending to be righteous, and said loudly, "How dare Xu Xing secretly read such a book in his own room. This behavior is not only immoral, but also..."
"and……"
As she was reciting, she suddenly couldn't remember the following words and stopped stammering.
Actually, it wasn't Li Zhaoyue's fault for having a bad memory. The stories she read were all filled with melodramatic romances. The court battles were all melodramatic scenes of the hero and heroine loving and abusing each other. If she were to imitate them and criticize Xu Xing, it would seem incredibly strange.
"And..." She suddenly had an idea, stopped talking, and slammed the table again. This time she slammed it too hard, and she screamed in pain.
Xu Xing still didn't react, and even continued to turn the pages. Li Zhaoyue's anger grew even more intense. With a raised eyebrow and a wide eyed expression, he began to scold Xu Xing around the table.
He kept saying things like, "I shouldn't read this kind of storybook behind her back, I should read more books on magic to improve myself," and so on. By the end, she was bored, so she sat cross-legged on the table, lowering her head and staring at him blankly.
"I usually don't like to hear this kind of words, but today I actually said it to you." She smiled bitterly, supporting her chin and tilting her head to look at him.
I was always sleepy in class and had never noticed Xu Xing concentrating on his studies. But now that I looked closely, he was completely different from usual.
It seemed quieter, and stranger.
Xu Xing may look rather docile, but his behavior is mature and steady. But sometimes he can be particularly mean and likes to tease her on purpose.
So, do I like him or not?
Li Zhaoyue was in a daze, recalling what Xie Feng had said to her that day.
"Are you in love with Xu Xing?"
No. She shook her head and threw the sentence out of her mind.
Impossible, the love described in the novel is passionate and can make you cry. But she was just happy to see Xu Xing and wanted to see him, so she didn't cry.
So it must not be love.
But when she thought of Xu Xing and Lou Yao standing together, talking and laughing, she felt like naughty little bugs were crawling all over her body, itching and aching. She slammed the table again in anger, and of course it hurt.
She was carefully looking at her red palms when Xu Xing in front of her suddenly put down the book and looked straight ahead.
The light brown pupils moved slightly, and his gaze passed through where Li Zhaoyue was sitting, giving her the illusion of looking into each other's eyes.
She blinked frantically, thinking it was an illusion. But the pain in her palm remained. She was conscious. Xu Xing seemed to be really looking at her.
He curled his eyes and stretched out his hand.
In that brief moment, Xu Xing's movements seemed infinitely slowed down in her eyes. The moon-white fabric shimmered in the dim candlelight, like a bright moon hanging in the night sky. Her almond-shaped eyes curved slightly, soft and bright.
The sound of fabric rubbing against each other could already be heard in her ears, and in that instant, a gentle breeze brushed her cheek. Li Zhaoyue looked up in surprise, and met his eyes as clear as water and moon, like a small fish straying into the mysterious and dangerous deep sea.
Surprised and fascinated.
"How did this piece of paper get here?" Xu Xing took the paper in confusion and stepped back from Li Zhaoyue. This retreat was like the receding tide. Li Zhaoyue floated to the surface and suddenly exhaled a long breath.
"Can he really not see me?" She covered her hot cheeks and looked at Xu Xing in surprise and doubt.
He was still looking at the book calmly, with no expression on his face.
Li Zhaoyue staggered down from the table, and almost fell down after another stumble. There seemed to be movement behind her. She turned around and found that Xu Xing seemed to have changed his posture.
She frowned and walked to the window again.
The window wasn't closed tightly, and faint moonlight leaked through the cracks. She was startled to realize it was night. While Xu Xing wasn't paying attention, she quietly opened the window and peeked out furtively. Not long after, she saw a red figure quietly approaching.
Li Zhaoyue carefully identified the figure of the person and found it familiar. When the person came closer, she found that it was Lou Yao who had taken over her body.
At that moment, an uncontrollable rage enveloped her whole body. Li Zhaoyue subconsciously wanted to open the window and climb out, but was held down by a strong force. She looked back and found Xu Xing holding the window.
Then there was a knock on the door.
"Xu Xing, are you there? I had another nightmare and I'm a little scared." Lou Yao's weak voice came from outside the door. Li Zhaoyue watched Xu Xing close the window tightly, muttered, "Why did it suddenly open?", and walked towards the door.
Her heart was in turmoil, and she couldn't help but recall the night when her body was taken away. She tried to stop Xu Xing from opening the door, but found that he had passed through her body.
She is just a soul now and can't do anything.
Realizing this fact, Li Zhaoyue sat down on the floor dejectedly and looked up at Xu Xing's back.
During the days her body was taken away, I wonder if anyone noticed that a new soul had been placed in that body. However, Lou Yao was able to walk around Yiziyuan smoothly and visit Xu Xing by the way, so she must have not been discovered.
Thinking of this, she felt as if her heart was blocked by a huge ball of cotton, making her feel suffocated and uncomfortable.
Xu Xing opened the door and saw Lou Yao's ingratiating smile and beautiful face.
"Sister, are you having a nightmare again?" he asked softly.
Lou Yao carefully observed his expression and nodded, "I've been doing it more frequently recently, but Xu Xing, your medicine is very effective, so I wanted to ask you for some more."
"Really?" Xu Xing seemed to laugh, but his expression was faint. Lou Yao was not sure what he was thinking at the moment and did not dare to speak.
A cool breeze blew through the thick night, causing Xu Xing's hair to tremble slightly, bringing with it the light yellow headband. Lou Yao glanced at the direction where the headband was fluttering, her eyes widening in disbelief.
No, impossible!
She looked away almost in embarrassment, her heart beating rapidly.
How could it be Li Zhaoyue?! How could she have just seen Li Zhaoyue? Seven days had passed, and Li Zhaoyue had long since died. How could he have appeared again, especially in Xu Xing's room?
"I still have some medicine here, take it back and take it, senior sister." Xu Xing glanced at her face, took a step forward, and completely blocked the doorway so that she could no longer see what was happening inside the room.
Lou Yao was in a trance. She took the medicine from Xu Xing and walked back. Her face was pale and her movements were slow. She had no trace of the excitement and shyness she had when she first arrived.
Xu Xing closed the door and turned to go into the house.
Li Zhaoyue's gaze lingered on Xu Xing for a long moment, wondering what the two had said and why it took so long. Then, remembering the time she'd seen Xu Xing bending over to talk to Lou Yao, she felt a surge of anger and turned away from him.
The footsteps behind him gradually slowed down, and it sounded like he sat down on the bed and then lay down on it.
Li Zhaoyue propped up her chin, rolled her eyes, and thought about how successful it would be if she went out to find Lou Yao and take back her body. However, she was now a spirit, and it seemed that she could not do anything.
