Chapter 5 [Wu] Unsolved Cases ([-])

The journey down the mountain was obviously a bit difficult, the old horse's panting became heavier, and Qingci and Jinyu sat quietly in the car, relatively speechless.

Jinyu seemed to have seen through the clear words of bowing her head and saying nothing, "Zhenzhen..." He hesitated to speak.

"Why didn't you scold me?" Qingci took his words.

"What are you scolding?" Jinyu laughed, and actually felt that Qingci's speech at the moment was a bit cute.

"I hurt Jiaoniang's face, don't you feel bad?"

"Then I also know that you knocked over the stove in the alchemy room three years ago, and the last time my jade pendant fell because you accidentally dropped it when you took my robe from Huanyifang, but it took me a long time to find it. I used to work for half a month, and you went up to the mountain with Xiaoyu to gather medicine and you lost her, but in the end you found her on a branch..."

Counting the bad things that Qing Ci has done in these years, there are really many.

"But how many times have I missed you?" Jinyu asked back, changing the subject.

"Then you are really looking towards me." Qingci also smiled, and there seemed to be a hint of complexity in that smile, "Then what kind of feelings do you have for Jiaoniang?"

Jinyu was slightly stunned, "Zhenzhen thinks, what kind of feelings do I have for her?"

Qing Ci looked at him meaningfully, but said nothing.

Two hours ago, at the gate of Yuling Mountain, Jinyu held Jiao Niang in his arms and refused to let go, until Jiao Niang broke free from him in the end.

"Go to Chang'an with Zhen Zhen." Jiao Niang still insisted on yesterday's rhetoric.

This time Jinyu didn't make further rebuttals, but simply answered yes, maybe he was really afraid of losing.

In fact, when he went to Qingci's room that day, he noticed the pearl hairpin she was playing with in her hand, but he was too busy talking to her and didn't observe it carefully. If he guessed correctly, Jiaoniang is right The sudden change of attitude about going to Chang'an has some connection with the pearl hairpin that scratched Jiaoniang.

After bouncing on the carriage for most of the day, it soon fell into the night. Half the moon hung obliquely, and misty mist rose from the mountains and forests. Jumping for joy.

Suddenly, a shadow was imprinted on the wooden table, shaking with the candlelight, "Who?"

Jinyu grabbed the man's neck with a backhand.

"I...it's me..." Qingci struggled to squeeze out two words from his throat.

Seeing that it was her, Jinyu let go slowly, and took two steps back, Qingci followed by two steps forward, the distance between her and Jinyu was only two inches, Jinyu just wanted to pull her into his arms Huo, but Qingci took another step back, leaving Jinyu in vain.

Jinyu froze slightly, frowned slightly, then turned around and sat down at the desk to read at night.

Qingci walked slowly to the edge of the bed, sat down, turned his head, and looked at Jinyu's profile. The dim yellow candlelight flickered gently against his face, which seemed a little pale.

After being silent for a while, Jinyu seemed to hold back for a long time and finally said, "You went to Jiao Niang's room that day, what did you say to her?"

Changing from the gentleness of the past, this sentence seemed extraordinarily indifferent.

"If I said that I didn't say anything, would you believe me?" Qingci looked at him with trembling eyes.

"But I still can't figure out why you clearly hurt her face with the poisonous hairpin. Not only did she not say anything bad about you, but she said that she hoped you could go to Chang'an with me." Jinyu put down the scroll and suddenly looked at her eyes, as if wanting to see something from her pupils.

But her eyes are always like this, as if they want to suck his soul after looking at them for a long time.

Qingci noticed Jinyu's momentary trance, and smiled unconsciously, "Seven days later, on the day we leave Chang'an City, let's release paper kites."
