The two walked and talked all the way until they reached Yunwu Pavilion, where Murong Xiao let Murong Qingyun go back. After Murong Qingyun left, she sent away the maids in the room and returned to her bedroom alone.
As soon as I closed the door, I smelled a familiar scent.
This was a very light aroma of Longyan incense, mixed with the faint medicinal fragrance left by years of medication. The mixture of Longyan incense and the medicinal fragrance formed a unique and pleasant smell.
If the other party had not intended to hide his or her scent at all, and if she had not been extremely fond of and familiar with such a scent, she would definitely not have been able to smell such a faint smell.
Murong Xiao frowned slightly, turned around, and looked at Qian Yeming, who had taken off his veil, with some dissatisfaction, and her heart suddenly jumped.
Her long black hair was tied behind her head with a very simple black ribbon. Her face seemed to be a masterpiece carefully carved from the finest jade chosen by God. Her eyebrows were as sharp as a knife, and the corners of her eyes were flying. Her ink-black glass pupils flashed with the black light of obsidian. There was an indelible and unforgettable cold and domineering aura engraved between her eyebrows. Her thin lips were crimson and tightly pursed.
At this moment, he just stood in front of her and stared at her quietly. The moonlight from outside the window shone in, and the silver light sprinkled on his body. He looked elegant and extraordinary.
However, the paleness in his face, which could not be hidden no matter what, filled a dark tinge to his elegance and distinction. The lingering arrogance between his brows added a touch of coldness to his extraordinary demeanor.
The words of blame had already rushed out of Murong Xiao's mouth, but he swallowed them back.
It was extremely dangerous for him to go back like this, but she couldn't bear to blame him because she couldn't bear to let him go.
Now, he just stood quietly in front of her. Her crazy longing made her want to throw herself into his arms regardless of everything and greedily enjoy his warmth.
But this will surely scare him...
Murong Xiao clenched his fists, trying his best to control the strong emotions that were about to overflow.
"After today, don't come again. The poison in the mansion will be replaced, and the antidote you'll be given will only last for one day."
Murong Xiao's voice was hoarse, and she looked away, because she was afraid that if she looked at him any longer, her strong emotions would burst out completely.
The other party remained silent for a long time after the words fell. He still stood in front of her, staring at her deeply, as if trying to see through her.
"You shouldn't come back. It's very dangerous here. Let's go." Murong Xiao spoke again.
"Why do you care about me so much? Also, how do you know my heart is in the right chest?" Qian Yeming finally spoke.
Tonight, the shock this woman brought to him was too great. Although he knew that there was a long time to come and there would be many opportunities to see her in the future, he just couldn't help but want to see her.
He wanted to know what on earth could have prompted this woman to care about him so much, even though he was not loved by his father or mother.
He wasn't mistaken. The look in this woman's eyes when she faced him was definitely genuine concern. Most importantly, she knew his unknown weakness.
According to legend, Murong Qingyu's five daughters had been raised in a folk courtyard outside the capital, carefully taught by a special person. So... was it possible that this woman knew his master?
His master was the only person closest to him in this world, and he really hoped that this woman was the one his master had entrusted to accompany him.
