Chapter 066 Chapter 66
Li Wengao and Mei Xuezheng had already left one after another.
Xie Qingya was still standing there, with his head lowered, the expression on his face difficult to discern in the dark night.
After a while, an old man passing by came over with a load on his shoulder. When he saw his appearance clearly, he stopped in surprise and asked, "Thank you, sir?"
"It's so late, why haven't you gone home yet?"
Xie Qingya came to his senses only after hearing the sound.
After suppressing the turbulent thoughts in his mind, Xie Qingya looked at the old man with a normal expression and said "oh", pretending to be nothing happened.
"That's it."
As he spoke, he lowered his eyes and brushed his clothes.
The old man was kindhearted. He nodded and continued, "Hey, sir, please go back soon. Didn't your wife come today? It's late at night. There's a big commotion in Yutian now, and so many people have died. Don't let your wife go back alone in the government office and get scared."
After Xie Qingya heard what he said, he also frowned.
Although Xu Duanyi is not alone.
But Xie Qingya was still a little worried after hearing what he said. He frowned and said, "I understand. I'll go back now."
I didn't dare to hang around outside any more.
Anyway, no matter where he goes tonight, he will probably be driven back.
And all he could think about was the awkwardness of being alone with Xu Duanyi.
But I didn't think about it.
Would Xu Duanyi feel bored and embarrassed being there alone? Would she feel that he was deliberately avoiding her by not going back?
Even if she really thought so, she wouldn't show it.
Who knows, he might even act dignified and generous, and not cause any trouble to others.
Thinking of this, Xie Qingya didn't have any other thoughts and continued to stay outside.
He greeted the old man and immediately strode towards the county government office.
When passing by a place, Xie Qingya saw an old woman and her grandson roasting sweet potatoes on the street, and he suddenly stopped.
No candles.
But the sparks in the brazier were enough for lighting.
Xie Qingya knew this grandparents and grandchildren.
However, what first attracted Xie Qingya was the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes.
It's not that he's hungry.
He had just eaten a meat pie given by Xu Duanyi, and then went to his workplace and ate two steamed buns with tea. Both of them were easy to fill the stomach and could even be considered as food accumulation. He still felt the meat stuck in his throat, and it was a bit uncomfortable.
However——
He remembered that Xu Duanyi used to like eating roasted sweet potatoes?
At that time they went to the street together.
Xu Duanyi kept staring at a place selling roasted sweet potatoes, but refused to say anything. He just turned back every three steps to look.
Want to eat.
I'm also afraid of causing trouble to others.
So I kept silent.
Until he noticed it, bought it and gave it to her.
Even though so many years have passed, Xie Qingya still remembers Xu Duanyi's bright eyes filled with surprise at that time.
I just don’t know if she still likes these things now?
Xie Qingya hesitated for a while, and finally walked in front of the old woman.
The old woman was old, and her eyesight wasn't as good as it used to be, especially at night, when it was hard for her to see clearly. Suddenly she saw a person standing in front of her, with a tall shadow looming over her. She just squinted her eyes and looked up, "Who is it?"
The child next to her knew Xie Qingya.
"Thank you, sir!"
The little boy looked at Xie Qingya happily and shouted.
Xie Qingya squatted down with a smile and touched the child's head.
After the old woman heard what her grandson said, she also shouted excitedly, "It's Master Xie?"
Although the old woman has poor eyesight, she is not deaf.
My heart is also clear.
She knew that several officials from the capital had come to the city, not to mention that Xie Qingya had saved them before.
On the first day Xie Qingya entered the city, the flood had not yet receded, and the old woman and her grandson lived by the river.
Their house had long been destroyed by the flood.
The grandfather and grandson were snuggling together in a wooden barrel, floating in the river, but their cries to heaven and earth were of no help.
Yutian at that time.
The rest of the people are so busy that they can barely save their own lives, and they don't have the extra energy to care about other people's affairs.
It was Xie Qingya and Lingji who saw what was happening and rushed into the river to rescue the grandfather and grandson.
It can be said that
If Xie Qingya hadn't been there, the grandfather and grandson would have been in great danger. How could they still be roasting sweet potatoes?
Therefore, although so many adults came to the city, the grandfather and grandson were most grateful to Xie Qingya.
The old man always wanted to express his gratitude to Xie Qingya.
But she was old and in poor health, and Xie Qingya was busy, so she didn't have much chance to go see Xie Qingya and express her gratitude.
I was also afraid that if I rushed in, I would disturb others from doing their work.
Although I don't know why Sir Xie is here now?
But the old woman was still happy.
"Why are you here, Lord Xie? Is there anything you want us to do?" The old man asked with a smile at Xie Qingya.
Xie Qingya looked at the grandfather and grandson in front of him, and then looked at the fragrant roasted sweet potatoes in the brazier. He did not immediately buy the roasted sweet potatoes from the old man, but first asked the old man: "Are you keeping these for yourselves or selling them?"
Granny Cui smiled and said, "How can we eat so much?"
"It was for sale, but it didn't sell well today. It hasn't been sold yet."
"If I still can't sell it after a while, I'll have to eat it myself." The old man said helplessly.
But the child next to her was looking at the pot of roasted sweet potatoes with sparkling eyes, and it was obvious that he wanted to eat them.
The old man didn't see it.
I was just about to tell Xie Qingya to take a few to eat.
Xie Qingya spoke first: "You keep two, and I will pack the rest."
Xie Qingya said this as he handed over a silver ingot.
When the old woman saw the white thing, she didn't react at first and asked "what is it?". When her grandson said "silver", her face immediately changed and she waved her hand and said, "This is not allowed. How can we take money from adults?"
"If you want to eat, just take it. But we dare not take your money."
The old man is sincere.
He felt that his life and that of his grandson were given by Xie Qingya, so he naturally tried every way to repay him.
Even though these roasted sweet potatoes are their only means of survival, how can they be compared to the need to save lives?
No matter what she said, she refused to accept Xie Qingya's money.
Xie Qingya, however, insisted on putting the money into the old woman's scabby hand, and said firmly, "It's okay. If my mother-in-law doesn't accept it, someone will report me to others. I will be in big trouble and may even lose my job as an official."
He deliberately said it in a serious tone.
The old man let out a cry and his face changed.
She didn't expect this matter to be so serious.
"Is it so serious?" She looked at Xie Qingya and asked. Seeing Xie Qingya nodded without hesitation, the old woman did not dare to refuse for a moment, for fear of causing trouble in the future.
If such a good official gets into trouble because of her.
The old man felt that even if he died by hitting his head, it would not be enough compensation.
“But that’s too much.”
Normally, she would only spend a few copper coins for a sweet potato, but now Master Xie gave her so much that she couldn't find the money even if she wanted to.
"Just keep it, mother-in-law. If I want to eat it later, I'll send someone to tell you." Xie Qingya helped the person solve the problem.
He knows that wealth should not be revealed.
I also don’t want the elderly to ask others for change.
In today's environment, regardless of whether others have money or not, it is inconvenient for the elderly, children, and grandparents to hold silver.
Therefore, Xie Qingya specifically reminded him: "Remember to keep the money safe and don't let anyone find it."
The old man is old, so he naturally knows these things.
Hearing this, she nodded quickly and said "yes" repeatedly.
After Xie Qingya gave the money, he felt relieved.
He knew that the old man was grateful to him and wanted to repay him, but there was a shortage of supplies in the city, so how much could the old man have?
Apart from the food they received from the city, the rest of their food came from the rations they had saved up.
Or when you are hungry, you can add some food to your diet.
Or sell it. This book is compiled exclusively for you by the LK team. This permission for ordinary people to sell things was previously discussed by Xie Qingya and Mei Xuezheng.
On the first day that Mei Xuezheng arrived, he asked Mei Xuezheng to issue an important document.
Xie Qingya had spent the longest time in Yutian County and knew that there were many families here who only had elderly people and children. Such families were powerless to help even if they wanted to, and naturally could not get any additional subsidies.
Therefore, Xie Qingya specifically allowed them to sell things.
Naturally, local people would not buy these things.
I don’t have money to buy it.
But Beijing officials like them, if they occasionally feel hungry and want to have a snack, they can buy some to try.
This old lady Cui is engaged in the business of selling sweet potatoes.
After Xie Qingya found out about this, he also asked Ringgit to buy some to give the old lady some supplements to support her and her grandchildren's future expenses.
After the flood, it is good enough to be able to save your life.
Many families lost decades of savings in that flood.
These people can help them rebuild their homes and provide some daily supplies after the disaster, but they cannot really take care of the future of all the families.
In the end, they still have to rely on themselves for their future life.
I can earn some money now, yes some.
Anyway, Xie Qingya could not tolerate the fact that the officials in Beijing who were around him were eating and taking things for free.
Just like he led his troops in the past.
There are too many sweet potatoes and it’s hard to carry them.
Granny Cui asked her grandson to go inside and get a small basin.
The child responded crisply, then immediately stood up and ran to the temporary residence behind him.
老人則拿着個鉗子，邊撥紅薯，邊跟謝清崖說道：“大人以後想吃了，便喊人來傳個話，老婆子喊瓜娃給您送過去。”
謝清崖說好。
正好小孫兒端着個小盆過來了。
小孩人小，力氣也小。
抱着個小盆，走得歪七扭八的。
謝清崖看見之後，連忙伸手接過後，放到老人面前。
看着老人一個個給他拿紅薯，還試圖把所有的烤紅薯都給他。
謝清崖先前瞧見了小孩亮晶晶的眼神，便阻止道：“剩下兩個，你們自己吃吧。”
“這怎麽行？”
老人卻是一口回絕了，她義正言辭：“大人給了這麽多錢，我怎麽還能剩下？那我也太不要臉了！”
老人家要臉，也是打心裏感激謝清崖。
收錢，已經十分為難她了，哪裏還幹得出這樣缺斤短兩的事？
但謝清崖态度堅決。
“我這夠了，拿去也是浪費。”他說完，又掃了眼瓜娃，“瓜娃還在長身體，給他吃吧。”
老人一聽這話，神情忽然猶豫起來。
她往身邊看。
小孩也沒想到，正呆呆看着謝清崖。
“多謝大人。”老人最終還是沒拒絕，只是說完，拉着自己的孫兒給謝清崖磕頭，一個勁地跟謝清崖道謝。
嘴裏還說着什麽再造之恩的話。
“沒什麽再造之恩，這些都是我們應該做的。”謝清崖沒覺得自己有那麽偉大，但也知道老人不會聽。
他扶着祖孫倆起來。
然後抱着裝着紅薯的盆，也站了起來。
走之前，他還特地叮囑了老人一句：“要是以後有人拿了紅薯，不給婆婆錢，婆婆記得跟我來說，我替你做主。”
老婆婆連他的錢都收了。
自然不可能不收別人的，她當即點頭說是。
謝清崖沒再說別的，只在走前，又看了眼那個小孩，與他叮囑了一句：“好好聽婆婆的話，有什麽事，就來縣衙找我，別人問你，你就說是我讓你去找的。”
小孩雖然還年幼，卻十分機靈聰慧。
他仰頭，露着個缺了門牙的牙齒，沖謝清崖笑着說好。
謝清崖拿着紅薯，又跟老人說了聲告辭，就先離開了這邊。
……
回到縣衙。
謝清崖先碰見了師爺王伏新。
“大人才回來？”王師爺看着他，先驚訝出聲，掃見他手裏那只盆，又目露驚訝，“怎麽這麽多烤紅薯？翠婆婆那的？”
謝清崖嗯一聲，沒多解釋。
只把手裏的盆遞給他，跟着一句：“你看着分下。”
自己則在其中挑了個最大的拿着。
“走了。”
他說完便先行往裏走去。
王師爺無端接了活，還十分茫然。
等人離開之後，這才回過神，掃了眼沉甸甸的木盆，他只好喊來人，讓他們去分送下。
幾位大人那邊，自然是不能落下的。
還有謝大人的貼身護衛和夫人的貼身婢女那。
至于夫人那……
想到剛才大人手裏那個紅薯，王師爺便沒讓人送，小別勝新婚，他是怕有人過去，影響了他們夫妻休息。
剩下的，則留下，讓人分着給了。
謝清崖沒管身後事，他一路往三堂去。
梅雪征和李文高的屋子都已經點起了燈，院門也已經關上了，可見都已經回來了。
謝清崖目不斜視，一路未停，直到走到自己的院子。
相比其他院子。
他這處，倒是熱鬧得很。
謝清崖還沒進去，就聽到裏面傳來的鬧騰聲音了。
謝清崖皺着眉進去。
才進去，就見令吉在院子裏，正和時雨在一起切磋武藝。
兩人這會正打得熱火朝天，絲毫未曾注意到謝清崖已經回來了。
謝清崖進來看到他們這樣，皺了皺眉，沒說話。
他先往他們身後的屋內看去。
窗子開着，卻看不見屋內的人，也不知道徐端宜在做什麽，不過這裏這麽吵，她肯定不可能是睡了。
謝清崖故意先咳了一聲，提醒他們。
時雨正對着門口，她先看見謝清崖，一邊收回手中的刀，一邊腳尖點地，退後幾步。
令吉看她這樣，奇怪住手道：“不打了？”
說完，他見時雨朝他身後擡了下下巴，令吉似有所察，回頭看去，果然瞧見王爺回來了。
“王爺！”
令吉笑着收刀跑過去。
又見王爺手裏拿着個香噴噴的烤紅薯，當即眼睛一亮。
他從小跟王爺一起長大。
平日跟王爺相處時，沒規沒矩慣了，還以為這是王爺買來給他的呢。
平時他也沒少吃，王爺帶來的東西。
正好他也打餓了。
他邊說，邊笑嘻嘻朝人伸手：“王爺怎麽知道我餓了？”
“正好，我最喜歡翠婆婆的烤紅薯了。”
手還沒碰到紅薯，就眼睜睜看着它，自他面前毫不猶豫地移開了。
令吉疑惑眨眼：“王爺？”
不明白王爺這是做什麽。
“碰哪呢？”
“說給你了嗎？就伸手？”謝清崖瞪着他，後槽牙也癢得厲害，說完，想到剛才看見的畫面，又壓着嗓子訓斥一句，“讓你來保護人，你做什麽呢？”
“我看你是還不夠累，都還有心思跟人比試，明日給我去堤壩搬石頭去。”
令吉很委屈。
但剛才的比試，的确是他的意思，沒想到正好被王爺撞上。
真倒黴。
委屈唧唧的令吉，不敢說話，只能埋着頭，跟條被主人訓斥的大狗似的，拖長着嗓音哦了一聲。
謝清崖看他這樣，皺着眉，還想訓斥一番。
前面忽然傳來熟悉的嗓音——
“王爺回來了？”
時雨已經收起長刀，走回到徐端宜的身邊了。
這會正充當個不大好惹的門神，不大高興地看着他。
謝清崖擡頭看去，便見徐端宜已換了一身更為輕便的衣裳，一臉洗漱過後的清爽模樣。
此時，她手裏捧着本書，正站在門口望着他。 本書由LK團隊為您獨家整理 身後燭火籠罩在她的身上。
她的臉，就如她耳珠上的那對白玉耳珠一樣，溫柔透人。
令人見之，便心旌神搖。
謝清崖看得目光微閃，心肝也不自覺一顫。
下意識便想移開視線。
又覺自己這樣，實在做賊心虛，反倒惹人奇怪，于是強行按捺。
可他臉上，剛才教訓令吉時的威嚴，早已不複存在了。
他看着徐端宜嗯了一聲。
腳步卻像是粘在地上似的，沒法繼續往前走去。
但回來都回來了。
總不能一直在外面站着。
那更加惹人奇怪。
謝清崖壓抑着心裏的驚濤駭浪，最後還是擡腳朝人走去。
令吉跟在他身後，依舊是被訓斥後的低迷模樣，瞧着好生可憐。
徐端宜自是瞧見了。
于是等謝清崖過來的時候，她便柔聲替人說了一句：“比試是我同意的，我也想看，王爺就不要責怪令吉了。”
她說話是慣有的溫柔，如春風流水。
謝清崖一聽，自是本能為自己找借口：“我沒責怪他。”
可令吉一聽這話，卻有些不服了。
他可是才被訓斥完呢！
他還有點小孩子氣，尤其是對自己人。
自知道王爺喜歡王妃後，他自然是打心裏拿王妃，當自己的另一個主子看待了。
此時他被一個主子訓斥，又被另一個主子維護。
自是難免要可憐巴巴，向自己的女主人，訴苦一番的。
“王妃，王爺剛才說，罰我明日去堤壩搬石頭！”他完全沒理會他的男主子，毫不猶豫地跟自己的女主子告起狀。
謝清崖身形一僵。
他扭頭朝身後看去，顯然沒想到這小子，竟然敢當衆拆他的臺！
吃裏扒外的東西！
令吉被他看得心肝一懼，忙走到時雨身邊，沖着徐端宜喊道：“王妃您看啊，王爺現在還用眼神威脅我呢！”
謝清崖只覺得自己的後槽牙，更癢了。
他開始反思。
他當初為什麽會把這個東西帶過來？
但現在再後悔，再反思也沒用了。
謝清崖能感覺到前面傳來的，屬于某人的視線。
心裏把令吉罵得要死，謝清崖面上卻還是一副沒事人的模樣，他冷哼：“讓你去堤壩搬石頭，委屈你了？力氣這麽多，正好去那使！”
說完，他又臉不熱心不跳的，回過頭跟徐端宜，一本正經地說道：“別聽他瞎說。”
“這小子力氣多，我讓他去，是想讓他去給玉田的老百姓，多做點貢獻。”
徐端宜哪裏會看不出？
但看着這樣鮮活的謝清崖，徐端宜還是彎着月牙似的眼睛，笑着跟謝清崖說了聲好，沒再說別的。
于是原本還想告狀的令吉，便明白了。
他的女主人再維護他，也還是更聽男主人的話。
令吉委屈。
令吉不想待了。
他準備走了。
走之前，他倒是把時雨也給拉上了。
時雨不耐，邊甩胳膊，邊說：“你幹嘛？”
令吉一副明白人的模樣，說時雨：“王爺和王妃要休息了，難不成你還想待在這啊？”
時雨皺眉。
她沒說話，回頭看了眼身後的主子，還是準備聽主子的吩咐。
徐端宜這會卻也不複先前的冷靜了。
令吉和時雨離開的話，這裏就只剩下她跟謝清崖了。
雖然本該如此。
但她的心裏，難免還是有些緊張。
...but she concealed it well and no one noticed.
First I looked around.
Seeing that Xie Qingya also turned his head away and said nothing, but did not show any objection, Xu Duanyi turned around and said to Shi Yu, "Go."
"have a good rest."
Although he was reluctant, Shi Yu always listened to Xu Duanyi.
He didn't say anything else at that moment.
"yes."
But before leaving, she glanced coldly in the direction of Xie Qingya, looking extremely dissatisfied and unsure of him.
Then he was reluctantly dragged away by Lingji.
The gate was closed.
There were two people standing outside the door, one holding a sweet potato and the other holding a book, but neither of them had gone in yet.
It seemed that they both felt that this was not a good idea, so they both said at the same time: "Prince, let's go in."
"Come in."
The voices rang out in unison.
Xu Duanyi and Xie Qingya couldn't help but look at each other, but when their eyes met, they instinctively turned their faces away.
"cough--"
Xie Qingya spoke first.
"Come in." He said and walked in first.
When Xu Duanyi saw him go in, he breathed a sigh of relief and then followed him into the house.
The door is open.
After Xie Qingya entered the house, he put the sweet potato in his hand on the table.
He ran all the way back because he was afraid that the sweet potatoes would get cold and not taste as good. Now he stood by the table, pretending to be nonchalant, and said to Xu Duanyi who came into the room: "Someone just stuffed it into my mouth. I'm full. You can eat it."
Xu Duanyi had already seen the sweet potatoes he brought back, but she didn't expect that they were for her.
She hasn't eaten it for many years.
Just as I was about to say yes, I heard Xie Qingya ask hesitantly, "If you don't like it..."
“I like it.”
Xu Duanyi looked at him and spoke before the other person finished speaking.
The answer was too quick and too decisive.
Xie Qingya was so slow to react that after a long while, he finally said "ah", then "oh", and replied: "Then eat it. If you can't finish it, leave it alone."
He knew Xu Duanyi had a small appetite.
After Xie Qingya finished speaking, he went to the washstand beside him to wash his hands.
Xu Duanyi walked over, put down the book in his hand, and sat at the table to eat sweet potatoes.
The sweet potatoes are no longer as hot as they were when they were just taken out of the charcoal brazier.
But it still smells good.
Granny Cui bakes very well.
You can see the golden juice solidified on the outside of the skin.
She ate the sweet potatoes slowly while looking at Xie Qingya and thinking about how to sleep at night.
So when Xie Qingya finished washing his hands and turned around, he happened to see Xu Duanyi looking at him.
His brain must have really gone blank tonight.
Looking at Xu Duanyi at this moment, he actually asked subconsciously.
"What are you looking at?"
As the words came out of his mouth, seeing Xu Duanyi's cheeks getting hot and turning away embarrassedly, Xie Qingya wanted to go back to what he had just done and slap himself hard.
Let you speak!
But now that the words have been spoken, there is no point in regretting them.
Xie Qingya was thinking about what to say to make amends when he saw Xu Duanyi, who had been holding the sweet potato and looking away, suddenly seemed to muster up the courage, turned around again, looked at him and said, "Prince, how are we going to sleep tonight?"
After hearing this, Xie Qingya fell silent.
This was also a question he had been thinking about, but he had already thought about it when he came here, so it was not difficult to answer this time.
"I'll go get some blankets from next door. You can sleep on the bed and I'll sleep on the floor."
Xu Duanyi refused.
She put down the roasted sweet potato in her hand, frowned, and said to the others: "Your Majesty has worked hard enough during the day, how can you sleep on the ground? Moreover, the flood has just passed, and the ground is still cold. Even if you put on more quilts, I am afraid it will be uncomfortable."
Xie Qingya wanted to say it was okay.
When he was fighting in the war, he even slept on the ground in the open air.
During the tough winter days, you can just dig a hole in the sand, lie down in it, and cover it with sand. It will be quite warm.
However, seeing the worried look on Xu Duanyi's face when she looked at him, Xie Qingya finally did not speak.
"So what do you think?" he asked Xu Duanyi.
I have already started to wonder if there is any other room next door that can be used for sleeping.
Actually, it’s okay to sleep separately. There are not many people in the third hall.
Qiao Bingyuan and the others are all in the second hall.
Mei Xuezheng: That’s nothing.
Even if he was discovered, he wouldn't say anything.
At most, it's just Li Wengao who is a little troublesome.
But he tried to avoid people so as not to be discovered.
He thought Xu Duanyi must have the same plan as him.
Xie Qingya never expected that he would hear someone say, "If Your Majesty doesn't mind, we can sleep together tonight."
"What?"
Xie Qingya was really stunned this time.
He blinked, but continued to stare at Xu Duanyi almost dully, almost thinking that he was hallucinating.
Xu Duanyi felt a little embarrassed when he looked at her like this.
It was not easy for her to say what she just said.
Especially now that Xie Qingya is watching him like this.
She lowered her eyes slightly and could feel her ears starting to feel hot.
But he still mustered up his courage and continued to say to others: "I heard from Lingji earlier that the room next door was already occupied, so I asked him to bring the bed and quilt over first. The bed is big enough for us to sleep together..."
She had thought about sleeping on the floor, but she didn't think Xie Qingya would agree.
But Xu Duanyi also knows. This book is compiled exclusively for you by the LK team. This answer is shocking enough.
Although Xie Qingya wasn't so stunned that he stared in disbelief, the way he looked at her at that moment clearly showed that he couldn't believe it.
The original intention was for them to be able to go to the bathroom together.
But being looked at like this by Xie Qingya, even though Xu Duanyi didn't raise his head, he inexplicably felt his face getting hot.
Therefore, before Xie Qingya could speak, she immediately said, "If the prince feels that this is not good, then I will sleep on the floor. It is me who disturbed the prince's peace."
As she spoke, she looked towards Xie Qingya.
But it was just a glance, and then it dropped again.
"I can't just sit there and watch the prince sleep on the floor while I sleep on the bed and enjoy myself."
Xie Qingya frowned.
When did the next room become full? How come he didn't know?
If you think about it carefully, you will know that it must be that kid Lingji who is talking nonsense!
He also knew why.
He muttered, "What a jerk."
Xu Duanyi didn't know what he was talking about. Suddenly, she heard a voice, but couldn't make out what it was saying. She raised her head and asked, "What did the prince say?"
Xie Qingya naturally couldn't let her know.
He coughed lightly and said, "Nothing."
He saw Xu Duanyi looking at him again, as if still waiting for his decision.
Xie Qingya was silent for a while, but finally, under Xu Duanyi's gaze, he replied, "Then let's sleep together."
He looked like nothing had happened on the surface, but his heart was beating so fast that it seemed like it was about to jump out.
Avoid being discovered.
After Xie Qingya answered, he immediately said, "I'll go wash up first." Then he immediately grabbed the handkerchief and went behind the screen to get some clean clothes.
Go behind the screen.
Xie Qingya couldn't help but glance at the bunk bed. Sure enough, two quilts and two pillows were already placed there.
Now the two pillows are close together.
Just like the wedding bed in Linfeng Pavilion.
Thinking that tonight, he and Xu Duanyi would lie together head to head, Xie Qingya felt his heart boiling and his heartbeat was deafening.
Even his face started to burn immediately.
"Go to bed after you finish eating." After saying that, without waiting for Xu Duanyi's answer or looking at her, Xie Qingya took his clothes and went outside to take a shower, fearing that if he took a step at night, he would no longer be able to hide the sound of his heartbeat.
Xu Duanyi watched him leave with a gust of wind.
The word "OK" was not uttered in my mouth until I could no longer see his figure. Only then did I utter it hesitantly.
