Chapter 94 I want to hold hands...
Her frail and petite body trembled slightly.
Her smooth white feet, barefoot, stepped on the cold floor, vaguely hidden by her transparent robe.
Rong Jianxue didn't say anything.
He held an umbrella in his right hand and his left hand behind his back. He was wearing an ink-colored robe, and the oil-paper umbrella completely concealed his emotions.
The sound of rain was pattering, but it seemed as if all the rain avoided him and not a single drop of rain touched him.
Pei Jingxu bit her lip slightly. Tears were clearly welling up in her eyes, and the corners of her eyes were bloodshot. However, she remained strong and calm as she spoke, "It's a cold and damp rainy night. If you have nothing else to do, please go back and rest early..."
Rong Jianxue was tall, and the long wind blew up his wide robe. Holding the umbrella handle, he moved slightly.
At the same moment, another thunder exploded behind him!
The woman almost subconsciously grabbed the man's sleeve in panic!
She lowered her head, her voice timid and trembling: "...Don't go..."
"A Xu is scared..."
——That’s not fair.
Rong Jianxue frowned slightly and looked at the woman in front of him who lowered her head.
Her voice was trembling, and her petite body was shaking as well, as if she would be swallowed up by the terrifying thunder in the next second.
But that's not fair.
For Rong Jianxue.
His brows were furrowed, and his thin lips were pressed into a straight line.
In the cold rainy night, her frail strength tugged at his sleeve, as if it were the weight of Mount Tai.
She said, Sir, don't go.
His gaze slowly moved down from the top of her hair, along her arm, and landed on the wrist of the hand that was holding his robe.
She was wearing the damaged bracelet.
Rong Jianxue narrowed her eyes and said in a cold and low voice, "Do you want me to leave or stay?"
The woman lowered her head, her sobs blending into the rainy night, but he could hear them clearly.
"Pei Jingxu, tears are useless," Rong Jianxue said in a calm and indifferent voice, "Tell me, do you want me to leave or stay?"
The woman didn't say anything, but the hand holding his sleeve tugged at him, a silent attempt to keep him.
Rong Jianxue raised her chin slightly, and her eyes seemed to be filled with cold rain, icy and turbulent.
He was still standing at the entrance and made no move to come in.
Pei Jingxu lowered his head, rolled his eyes, and then wanted to hold his hand behind his back.
But it did not go as planned.
Rong Jianxue slightly turned sideways to avoid the slender hand she extended.
The smooth and pale thing missed and hovered in mid-air.
She raised her eyes in a panic to see the man's expression.
Rong Jianxue narrowed her dark eyes slightly, pretending not to understand, and said in a cold and indifferent tone: "What?"
Pei Jingxu bit her lips lightly, the corners of her eyes were bloodshot: "...I want to hold your hand..."
Rong Jianxue lowered her eyes and glanced at her hand that was suspended in mid-air.
Finally, the hand behind his back slowly stretched out, grabbed Pei Jingxu's wrist, and pulled her into his arms.
"Ding-dong——"
There's a little more weight on my wrist.
Pei Jingxu was stunned for a moment and looked down subconsciously.
I saw that on the wrist that originally had only a broken jade bracelet, there was now a new emerald green jade bracelet.
Pei Jingxu's pupils dilated slightly, and he was a little slow to react for a moment.
The quality of that jade bracelet is extremely good, and it is completely different from the original bracelet.
Even though Pei Jingxu had seen many jade bracelets of good quality, she had to admit that the one Rong Jianxue gave her was really rare.
"This is……"
Pei Jingxu's eyes were filled with confusion, as if he didn't understand.
Rong Jianxue said coldly, "I just bought it casually. It's compensation for breaking your bracelet."
Pei Jingxu was stunned for a moment, his eyes flickering slightly, and his tone was soft: "If I don't accept this bracelet, will you still accompany me tonight..."
Rong Jianxue said calmly: "No."
Pei Jingxu bit her lips lightly and lowered her head: "Then... thank you, sir..."
It's a bit of taking advantage of someone's misfortune, but Rong Jianxue doesn't care much about this kind of tactics.
To make matters worse, he should probably ask her to take off the damaged bracelet, as it was an eyesore.
But his thoughts turned to Rong Xuanzhou.
In the end, I suppressed this thought.
She finally held his hand, and the cool touch came from the palm of her hand. Pei Jingxu's expression seemed to calm down, and her body didn't tremble as much.
His gaze finally slowly dropped down, and Rong Jianxue saw her smooth feet.
Rainwater entered the house, and the cold floor felt chilly.
He first put the umbrella outside the door, then took a step forward, picked her up with one hand, and carried her back to the bed like a child.
"hiss--"
Pei Jingxu, who was sitting on the bed, took a breath of cold air, his back touched the wall, and his brows furrowed.
Rong Jianxue lowered her eyes: "What's wrong?"
Pei Jingxu bit her lip: "No, it's okay, I just pulled the wound a little..."
The wound on her back was the most serious, and Rong Jianxue naturally knew it.
"Have you applied medicine today?"
Pei Jingxu lowered his head and whispered, "We moved out of the West Courtyard in such a hurry that we didn't have time..."
Rong Jianxue said coldly: "I'll let Hongyao help you apply the medicine."
After saying that, Rong Jianxue turned around.
Pei Jingxu hurriedly pulled out the man's sleeve: "Sir, don't go..."
Stopping, Rong Jianxue looked at her sideways with a questioning look in his eyes.
Pei Jingxu lowered his head and said with a guilty conscience: "Hongyao will nag me..."
Hearing this, Rong Jianxue turned around and faced her again: "I can't?"
Pei Jingxu muttered, "My Lord, please be quiet and don't nag..."
Rong Jianxue sneered when she heard this: "So you're not planning on taking medicine tonight?"
Pei Jingxu whispered, "The injury is almost healed. It doesn't matter if it's not enough in one go..."
Rong Jianxue pursed her lips and said coldly, "Turn around."
Pei Jingxu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Rong Jianxue with a pair of blank and clear eyes.
"Let me take a look at the injury."
Pei Jingxu quickly refused: "No, no need, sir, it's really okay..."
"Pei Jingxu."
Rong Jianxue spoke, but only called her name.
As if being pricked, Pei Jingxu shrank his neck, his eyes trembled slightly, and his long eyelashes drooped.
for a long time.
Pei Jingxu finally turned around slowly and took off her dress, revealing only her half-exposed back.
In fact, there was no need to even check the back; the white dress was already stained with blood.
Rong Jianxue frowned slightly, her voice a little hoarse: "Shouldn't it be almost healed? Why is it so serious?"
Pei Jingxu's shoulders trembled slightly, probably due to the night wind. He spoke in a weak and aggrieved voice, "Sir, you are so fierce..."
Upon hearing this, Rong Jianxue opened her lips slightly, but all the words she wanted to say were stuck at her lips.
After a while.
The man behind him finally spoke slowly: "Where's the ointment?"
Pei Jingxu curled her neck, the blush spreading from her face to her shoulders, and the tips of her ears were also red. "No need, I, I can do it myself..."
Rong Jianxue said coldly: "Where's the ointment?"
Pei Jingxu bit her lip slightly, and finally replied in a low voice: "In the luggage on the table."
Rong Jianxue took out the ointment from her luggage and walked back to the edge of the bed.
Pei Jingxu had his back to him.
Therefore, all I could see on the wall was his shadow getting closer and longer.
The candlelight in the room was blown by the cold wind, swaying a few times, and the figure also swayed slightly.
"Lie down."
The man behind him spoke coldly, without any emotion.
