Chapter 82 World Four (Nine)
The soft and weak voice fell into Xie Wenying's ears, like sporadic fire points, burning his chest slightly.
Bao Shan's words were intermittent, making it difficult to discern their meaning. Was it because she liked Senior Brother Wenying, or was it because Senior Brother Wenying enjoyed doing this?
Just a few words, in different orders, but with two completely different meanings, are enough to make people toss and turn in bed and carefully ponder the deeper meaning.
Xie Wenying's hand gently caressed Baoshan's small, rounded shoulder. But before he could ask, he saw Baoshan's eyes blurry. She nodded softly, then closed her open eyelids tightly again. Xie Wenying's heart was filled with doubts, like a torrent, but because Baoshan's eyes were tightly shut, they were immediately blocked. He sat there, feeling depressed, with no one to answer. Xie Wenying checked Baoshan's pulse. It was slightly weak, but gradually becoming steady and strong, no longer as floating and weak as before.
In this situation, Xie Wenying should not stay, but Baoshan is still unconscious. If he abandons her, no one will come to visit her in this huge Yunning Peak.
Xie Wenying stood in the yard. The dry branches were rustling in the wind. A handful of snow piled on the leaves shook and fell on Xie Wenying's shoulders.
Xie Wenying was unaware of anything and stared into the distance with a heavy gaze. The faint pain from her bitten lip reminded her from time to time what had just happened.
He actually had that kind of thing happen with the treasure fan...
Even Xie Wenying thought that she had no choice at the beginning.
Because of the action of feeding the medicine, but later on...
He had to admit, and could not deny, that it was a kiss that only two people in love could kiss each other, and it was a deep kiss when love was at its strongest.
But with things like this happening, who could Xie Wenying blame? Was it Baoshan, who had suddenly suffered a heart attack and was unconscious? No, she couldn't be blamed. How could she have known that, while unconscious, Senior Brother Wenying, whom she had always relied on, would actually feed her with his lips and teeth?
Xie Wenying thought for a moment and could only blame everything on herself.
One reason was that he was not thoughtful enough and had not come up with a solution that would satisfy both parties. He had skin contact with Bao Shan and got close to her body.
Secondly, his mind was unstable. He was tall and powerful, while Baoshan was a weak woman. If he had been resolute, how could he have resisted pushing her away? He was simply intoxicated by the warmth, fragrance, and softness of the beauty's arms, unable to extricate himself, and therefore unable to withdraw in time.
Xie Wenying figured it all out. The snowflakes on his shoulders had already melted into water, soaking his gray robe.
Hearing the noise coming from inside the house, Xie Wenying clenched his fists and walked towards the house with steady steps.
Baoshan has slowly woken up, with an innocent look on his face, completely unaware of anything.
This pure posture made Xie Wenying feel a little sad.
Xie Wenying walked over to Baoshan and was about to speak when he saw Baoshan staring blankly at his shoulder. He said softly, "Brother Wenying, could you please bow your head?"
Xie Wenying leaned forward, almost eye-level with Baoshan. Baoshan took out a handkerchief from her body and placed it on his shoulder, gently wiping it with her soft hands, her movements as gentle as the clouds on the horizon.
Baoshan chuckled softly and said, "There's snow on your shoulders. Why didn't you wipe it off in time? It melted into water.
Senior Brother Wenying is really like a child who hasn't grown up."
Her eyes were clear and pure, like a handful of whitest snow on the top of Yunning Peak.
Baoshan spoke in an intimate tone, teasing Xie Wenying with words that seemed quite familiar to her.
Hearing this, Xie Wenying couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, but he forced it down. He thought to himself: I wonder who is more like a child between the two of them, who actually let Baoshan, this little girl, teach him a lesson today.
Xie Wenying lowered her eyes and was about to say something, but her attention was attracted by the broken lips of Baoshan.
He had touched those soft lips not long ago and tasted them carefully, and he could still remember the taste.
The image of lips and teeth touching flashed through his mind, and Xie Wenying's body suddenly stiffened. His eyes regained clarity, but with a hint of coldness. He said in a deep voice, "Baoshan, I have something to tell you."
Baoshan stopped what he was doing, glanced quickly at Xie Wenying's lips, and then looked away in panic.
She thought her actions were secretive, but Xie Wenying saw them.
After all, for martial artists, sharp hearing and eyesight are essential skills. Xie Wenying felt something was amiss and was about to ask.
Bao Shan spoke softly, her voice weak but firm: "I like Senior Brother Wenying."
Bao Shan raised her eyes slightly and saw Xie Wenying's body stiff, her expression like wood. She was surprised and puzzled, but not as happy as she should be. Bao Shan continued, "...I was born weak. Since I couldn't go out, I didn't have many friends. I have been alone since I was a child.
I heard that Senior Brother Wenying was willing to take me to Yunning Peak for a short stay, so I...
I am so happy in my heart. I like Senior Brother Wenying. You treat me so well, just like my father and mother.
I want to stay at Yunning Peak, by Senior Brother Wenying's side, is that okay?"
Xie Wenying's eyes narrowed slightly, knowing that there had been physical contact just now. Although Baoshan was unconscious, he was not completely unaware.
Even so, she still wants to stay in Yunning Peak. Isn't she afraid that I have evil intentions and deliberately get close to her and deceive her to make her fall in love with me?
Xie Wenying did plan to send the treasured fan back.
After all, he was not used to dealing with matters between men and women, and only knew how to be intimate with each other.
Although this was not his original intention, it did tarnish the reputation of the precious fan. If he wanted to preserve the innocence between them, he had to separate.
"Treasure fan."
Xie Wenying's voice was slightly cold.
Bao Shan's eyes trembled slightly, with a hint of uneasiness: "... Senior Brother Wenying should have heard of that fortune-telling."
Xie Wenying frowned: "What?"
Bao Shan twitched the corners of her mouth slightly, and although her smile was gentle, it didn't show much joy. Instead, it made people feel distressed and sympathetic.
"The prediction that I won't live past the age of twenty."
The furrows between Xie Wenying's brows deepened, and his voice was hoarse: "It's just nonsense, don't take it seriously."
Baoshan raised her eyes, and her clear eyes like spring water looked into Xie Wenying's eyes. Her voice was ethereal, like clouds and mist, as if it could be blown away by the slightest breeze.
"For real."
She had always been obedient, but now she began to deny what Xie Wenying said.
"But my body, let alone twenty years old, I'm afraid... Senior Brother Wenying, I like it here, I don't want to leave you... and Yun Ning Peak, is that okay? I know my body is not up to the task. Today is the day for several disciples to return to Yun Ning Peak after training, but I fainted in front of everyone. It's really unpleasant.
But, I knew you were coming back this morning, so I rushed over. I will definitely not do this again in the future and embarrass you..."
Baoshan raised her porcelain-white face, a faint blush on her cheeks from her eagerness. Her voice was soft and trembling with fear of being driven away. She thought it was her sudden heart attack that had angered Xie Wenying, who was trying to drive her away.
Xie Wenying had mixed feelings in her heart, and for a moment she couldn't describe how she felt.
Baoshan had memories of her coma, but she deliberately concealed them, unwilling to reveal the truth. Upon hearing the words, "I only learned the news this morning," Xie Wenying's eyes darkened. He had clearly sent the message yesterday via white crane, so why had Baoshan only learned of it today? And she had hurried to Qingfengtan, perhaps because of this heart attack.
Xie Wenying secretly memorized this incident in her heart. Looking at Baoshan's trembling eyelashes, she moved her hand slightly and stroked the three thousand black hair.
"No."
Baoshan's eyes lit up slightly, no longer as depressed as before.
Xie Wenying wanted to bury what had just happened in his heart. He would not have any evil thoughts about the precious fan, nor would he deliberately deceive her.
Since Baoshan was deliberately hiding the truth, if he exposed it, with the girl's thin skin, her cheeks would surely turn red, tears would stream down her face, and she would be unable to sleep.
Xie Wenying remembered the box in his arms, took out the long box and handed it to the treasure fan.
Bao Shan wanted to take it but didn't dare, so he asked softly, "Yes, is it for me?"
Seeing Xie Wenying nod, Baoshan took the long box and opened it. Inside was a white peach and mutton-fat jade hairpin, and two small and cute bells hung on a silver chain, which jingled when they were gently shaken.
Bao Shan's eyes sparkled with stars. He handed the jade hairpin to Xie Wenying and pleaded softly, "Brother Wenying, help me put it on."
Xie Wenying was slightly startled and reached out to take the white peach and mutton-fat jade hairpin.
He had only bought hairpins, but had never put jewelry on anyone.
Xie Wenying looked at the drooping black hair, searching for a suitable position with her eyes. Finally, she chose one and inserted the jade hairpin.
The delicate hand of the precious fan touched the jade hairpin, and she shook her head gently, and then she heard the pleasant sound of two bells colliding with each other.
The white peach is pink and tender, and its rosy white color is warm and lovely, which makes Baoshan look a little better than before.
Xie Wenying almost blurted out: "It suits you very well."
Bao Shan's cheeks were rosy, and she lowered her head slightly, biting her lips with her pearly teeth. However, she accidentally touched the wound, and let out a soft cry.
Seeing this, Xie Wenying felt that the charcoal in the room was burning too vigorously, making his body scorching hot.
Xie Wenying stood up and left Baoshan's house almost as if she was escaping.
Baoshan reached out and touched the wound on his lip.
As their lips and teeth touched, she bit Xie Wenying twice before Xie Wenying bit her back. It was obvious that this person was too dull when it came to intimacy and didn't know that reciprocity was what was in his heart.
Baoshan was well aware of the intimacy between the two and wanted to take advantage of it.
But she couldn't let Xie Wenying pierce this thin window paper. If it did, Xie Wenying wouldn't be deeply in love with her, and instead would deliberately distance himself from her because of their current intimacy. This wasn't what Baoshan wanted. Flowers and mists invite deeper exploration. A hazy, veiled love is the essence of a long-lasting relationship. Someone with Xie Wenying's temperament, if they felt a sense of responsibility for someone, would do their utmost to protect them.
What Baoshan wanted at this moment was for Xie Wenying to pity her and have sympathy for her, so that she would have the idea of protecting her. Over time, this kind of protection would become Xie Wenying's habit, ingrained in his bones and indelible.
Baoshan's heart disease was an old one, and she had long been accustomed to such sudden fainting episodes.
Therefore, after taking the pills, she recovered quickly, changed her clothes, put on the white peach and mutton-fat jade hairpin given to her by Xie Wenying, and went out.
Baoshan was wearing a winter dress, the collar, sleeves, and hem of which were all decorated with soft and smooth white animal fur.
Although the clothes are thick, they do not look bulky when put on.
Baoshan was particularly happy with the jade hairpin given by Xie Wenying. Whenever she took light steps, the bells in her hair would jingle, ding-ding-dong-dong, which was novel and interesting.
The road in front of him was suddenly blocked by someone. Bao Shan looked up and saw that the person was wearing a bamboo leaf green robe, with slightly raised eyebrows and an inexplicable look in his eyes. It was Bai Jiqing.
Bao Shan paused slightly, thinking for only a moment, and said softly, "Hello, Senior Brother Bai."
Bai Jiqing had a faint smile on his face: "Why do you call me Senior Brother Wenying when you call me Senior Brother, but you call me Senior Brother Bai?
But I feel that there is a difference between closeness and distance. In Yun Ning Peak, only the eldest brother is close to you, so you call him closer."
Bao Shan frowned slightly and replied softly, "That's not the case."
She was not as eloquent as Bai Jiqing, and apart from saying "it's not like that", she couldn't come up with any other explanation.
Bai Jiqing walked up to Baoshan and looked up and down at the dress she was wearing today. The soft and shiny animal fur fluttered in the wind, making her beautiful face look even more pitiful.
Bai Jiqing's gaze fell on the white peach mutton-fat jade hairpin in her hair, and he said leisurely, "Big Brother's vision has really improved."
"Junior Sister's blood jade hairpin is not even one tenth as valuable as this one."
Baoshan's body trembled slightly, and he lowered his eyes to look at the ground.
Bai Jiqing chuckled and made way. Seeing Baoshan Rourou avoiding him and leaving, Bai Jiqing's eyes were dark and unclear.
