Chapter 59 Chapter 59 (Part 2) It seems like a ghost...
"She dared to touch my people, why shouldn't I?" Heng Huang looked at Gu Zhi with tears in her eyes. She was so frightened that she started to cry miserably again. "Why are you looking at me like that...Brother Jin, don't you care about me the most? My wrist..."
Gu Zhi opened his mouth for a moment, as if he had a lot to say, but in the end he endured it with difficulty.
However, his expression suddenly became almost cold and cruel, which Nan Qiong Shuang had never seen before.
Crazy, these guys are all crazy today. They're either pressing her down on the couch in broad daylight, kissing her through a fan, or slapping Li Xuanbai's buttocks for fun. Now, someone even broke the young lady's wrist bone.
Nan Qiong Shuang didn't care at all about being envied by others, as long as they stopped making noise under her window.
She sighed, her hands pressed against the two halves of the window sash, and said, "Master, take Miss Heng to see a doctor quickly. She's going to cry herself hoarse."
After saying that, he slowly closed the window with a creak.
Gu Zhi stood outside the window, his face pale, almost in shock and pain, "...Jiaojiao!"
The person inside the window remained unmoved and turned away.
He couldn't believe it and began to tremble involuntarily.
He had just left and arranged so many guards to watch her, but in the blink of an eye, he let Li Xuanbai into the room again. It was unknown what the two of them had agreed to each other.
Heng Huang insulted her like this, but she didn't even get angry. Seeing Heng Huang leaning on him like this, she didn't even feel the slightest bit of resentment. Seeing him look so bad, trembling and asking her, she ignored him and only knew to tell him to take Heng Huang to see a doctor. What about him? What about him?!
He cried in pain, "Jiaojiao, why are you...!"
There was no one in front of the window.
He stood still, unable to move, as if his anger had burned all his nerves. There was a sharp buzzing in his ears, and he almost felt dizzy.
Jiaojiao didn't see him, what did he do wrong?
He felt groggy and could only feel his body shaking as if someone was shaking him.
It was Heng Huang. She shook his arm, her throat nearly breaking with sobs, her eyes misty with tears. "Who are you looking at? My wrist... I'm begging you so much, and you won't even look at it?!"
He felt weak and helpless. He closed his eyes as if exhausted and staggered.
Song Yaojie hurriedly came up to help him.
He managed to say, "Thank you, Senior Sister." His voice was dry. "Please take Miss Heng to see a doctor."
Heng Huang: "Brother Jin, you don't care about me?"
Gu Zhi said tiredly, "Master is still waiting for me in the Bodhi Pavilion."
Nan Qiongshuang was in the room. She took off her shoes and got on the couch again. She lay on her side in a restless state, with the quilt pulled up to her ears.
It's so noisy.
We locked her up and clearly told her not to see anyone, but why did it cause so many twists and turns?
Just now, Gu Huaijin looked so strange, he must come to look for her at night.
She hadn't meant to upset him. It was just that he couldn't be free without her under house arrest. If he wanted to imprison her, he would have to come in and keep her company day and night, thinking about her constantly. Even if she didn't look at him, he would have to look at her.
She always makes men stay willingly.
Lying on the couch, she yawned and closed her eyes.
Go to sleep. At night, Gu Huaijin still didn't know how to torture her.
*
Nan Qiong Shuang woke up once in a daze during her sleep. She only remembered opening her eyes. The dusk was gradually getting darker through the stained glass window, and the yellow afterglow fell on her pillow one by one. She had nothing to do, so she turned over and fell asleep again.
When I woke up again, I woke up with an inexplicable start. The room was pitch black, with only the moonlight filtering in through the window, pale and cold.
She was confused, why didn't Gu Huaijin come?
Suddenly, a strand of her long hair was lifted up, and in the darkness, there was the sound of a soft kiss.
She was startled and turned around suddenly.
Gu Huaijin sat at the head of the bed behind her, invisible in the shadows of the night. He sat quietly, with his eyelashes lowered, kissing her hair.
The silent person in the darkness looked at her silently and kissed her silently, like a lingering and ambiguous ghost.
I don't know how long I sat here like this.
She said, "...Why are you here with me? It's late at night and you're not sleeping?"
He took her hair away from her lips and said softly, not knowing where he was looking: "...Jiaojiao."
"how?"
He lowered his eyes: "Am I not important to you at all?"
She blinked and smiled: "Why do you say that?"
He was silent for at least a quarter of an hour, and he seemed to be extremely disheartened. He leaned against the wall dejectedly, holding a strand of her hair in his hand.
He was in a state of despair and wanted to speak several times, but when the words came to his lips, he said nothing.
"What happened today?" She hadn't expected that he would be so hurt just because she closed the window in front of him during the day. "Did he get punished by the elders? Senior Sister said there was a lot of commotion in Bodhi Pavilion today."
Today in the Bodhi Pavilion, it was exactly as she said.
However, no matter how angry his uncle was, how unreasonable Heng Huang was, how much Song Yaojie exaggerated, or how much Heng Qingnan used their old relationship to force him to marry her, he had never seen her ruthlessly close the window in front of him, making him feel so helpless.
Why do you do this?
She was all he had.
Clearly, he had lost his composure just now, but she still smiled and let him do it.
Why did she shut Li Xuanbai out as soon as he entered her window?
His voice was incredibly soft: "Jiaojiao... you like Li Xuanbai, right?"
She hesitated for a moment.
At the moment, he was almost distracted. Even if he was teased, he didn't have the energy to take the bait, so he said briefly, "Not really."
He raised his eyes for a moment, like a fish about to suffocate to death, with some raindrops falling on his gills, and flapped his tail dyingly.
"Not really, it is..." Luo Mo smiled, "A little bit, but I don't know if it counts as such?"
She had intended to deny it, but she was a little amused by his sensitivity.
"Not really, I just don't like it."
Suddenly, a little light appeared in his dark eyes.
"I don't like it, is..."
"If I don't like it, I don't like it."
"Really? Jiaojiao, are you just trying to please me? Are you pitying me? Are you lying to me?" He suddenly came closer, lowered his head, and his long hair fell down, stopping at the side of her face.
Nowadays, he especially liked to stay half an inch away from the tip of her nose. At such a close distance, he could see her plump lips and even the delicate lines on her lips by lowering his eyes. He swallowed painfully.
"No, there's actually nothing going on between me and Li Xuanbai."
"Really..." He spoke softly, closing his eyes and leaning against her lips, "Where's his fan? Did he return it? I want it..."
Gu Huaijin seemed to not understand the word "want", but she got goosebumps as soon as she heard it.
What? Did he think that fan was a sheep sausage casing for contraception?
I've only heard of contraception, but I've never heard of avoiding even kissing.
She slightly moved away and dodged, "What fan? Stop making trouble."
"Jiaojiao." He held her arm, hugged her in his arms, tilted his head down to find her lips, "I want it. Where is it?"
She tilted her head again and said, "Oh, that's annoying."
"I don't care." He murmured relentlessly, chasing her lips. "You have no idea how annoying those people in Bodhi Pavilion are today. They've been thinking about you all day, and then when I came back to see you, you actually closed the window. No matter how much I shouted from outside, you didn't even open it. Is your heart made of iron?"
In the darkness, Gu Huaijin casually touched the bedside and actually touched the fan. He swung it aside with great familiarity, pressed it on her lips, closed his eyes and just kissed her lightly.
She stepped back half an inch, "Huai Jin..."
Suddenly, a hand reached out from behind her, went up along her back, and held her neck and the back of her head, preventing her from moving back even a little.
The fan edge rose and fell, and she closed her eyes helplessly.
He kissed her repeatedly, asking, "What did he promise you? What if he wins?"
"He...he said he won, and asked me to write my last name backwards from now on." She lied.
He sneered, "Childish. He's the one I despise the most in the whole mountain."
This made her laugh. She remembered that in the past, under the flower tree in the yard, she wanted to see if this perfect gentleman also had a biased and mean side. She went around in circles and forced him to speak ill of others, but in the end, all she got was the word "erratic".
"I'm under the window, why is it closed?" he asked.
"The situation is too chaotic, and Miss Heng is crying too loudly. I didn't expect Li Xuanbai to be so domineering and forcefully break her wrist. She came to you crying and begging, but you only cared about me. Isn't her father, the head of the sect, going to blame me later?"
Gu Zhi rarely stopped and was silent for a long time. Unconsciously, he took down the fan between the two of them.
He murmured, "You're right, I was impulsive."
After saying that, he sighed tiredly, hugged her in his arms, and rested his chin on her shoulder.
Why is all this on the mountain so tiring?
It would be nice if she was the only one on the mountain.
She suddenly asked, "How long will Miss Heng stay in the mountains?"
When this name was mentioned, Gu Zhi felt irritated. Back then, she was just a little spoiled, but now she was simply a replica of Li Xuanbai. "I don't know, about a month or so. It is said that she will stay in the mountains until after the competition."
She casually mentioned, "So, we came down the mountain at about the same time."
There was a sudden, unbearable silence in the room.
Gu Huaijin didn't speak for a long, long time.
His head rested on her shoulder, his face buried in the crook of her neck between her hair, he didn't move at all, even his breathing was light.
Suddenly, something warm fell against her neck. Two drops of something rolled into her collar and deep into her chest and abdomen, wetting her heart and lungs.
She couldn't help but feel a pang of anxiety.
The reason for bringing this up was to remind him that she would be going down the mountain soon and there were some things that needed to be said to her.
But why is he so easily heartbroken?
Since she is so sad, why not force her to stay?
She couldn't bear it, so she stroked his back and comforted him: "What's wrong, Huaijin?"
After an unknown amount of time, he finally let her go, moved a little further apart, and held her face in his hands.
Under the moonlight, she could clearly see those eyes, moist and sorrowful, their eye circles and nose tip red. His fragile demeanor was like a cracked ice vase, smooth on the surface but covered in cracks within.
Looking at his expression, she reminded him word by word: "Huai Jin, don't you want me to leave?"
As long as you say yes, as long as you put away the fan and kiss me, as long as you say, "Jiaojiao, you are not allowed to go down the mountain", then I will stay on the mountain with you.
However, it cannot be a request, it can only be "forced".
Outside the window, a transparent spider web was formed under the eaves, moving in the wind. In the cold moonlight, it was so crystal clear and hidden that it was almost impossible to see clearly.
A butterfly with its colorful wings fluttered lightly and landed half an inch away from the spider web.
The spider in the dark lurks silently and silently.
She waited for his reply, not knowing how long.
After a long time, he held her arm and finally spoke.
