After rebirth, she became the favorite of the powerful minister.

Lord Song, who was usually eloquent, hung his head listlessly and said nothing.

Wen Peiji didn't like him and pushed him to the side, then leaned over to look at Yuan Ge. The little girl had a frown on her face and her eyelashes were stained with tears. She was trembling, and looked like a peach blossom wet by the rain, delicate and fragile.

Wen Peiji sighed deeply, and after a long while he finally raised his hand slowly. His fingertips trembled as they brushed the lines on the other person's forehead, and he called softly, "Qianqian..." He was not sure if he could wake the other person up, just like... he was actually not sure whether the "brother" she mentioned was referring to himself.

Since coming back this time, he has discovered more than once that Wen Qian is very different from before.

The little girl became cheerful, lively, smart and cunning. She could see through many things and dared to love and hate. The little white rabbit transformed into a little fox in a place he couldn't see. It was much brighter and more dazzling than before. This was good. If the little girl of the Wen family was gentle and humble, it would be fine. If she was a little sharp, it would be even better.

The little girl's attitude towards the Wen family also changed. She always had a faint smile on her face, which was none of her business. She was considerate and calm. She became gentle and distant. She no longer called him "brother", but only "big brother". This was not a particularly obvious change. They were not close to begin with, and girls change a lot when they grow up... He told himself so, and easily accepted the change in address.

Until this moment... looking at the little girl whose lips were trembling from crying in her dream, Wen Peiji suddenly vaguely understood what the change from "brother" to "big brother" and the not-so-obvious estrangement meant - little girl, you have a more important "brother", so important that no one can replace him, and even the title is only for this one person.

"Qianqian..." He called softly, smoothing her frown with his fingertips bit by bit, and his usually lazy and gorgeous voice was faintly trembling, "Wake up."

It's hard to describe how I feel. I feel relieved that she has a brother who treats her very well, but I also blame myself for not being able to take good care of her even though I'm so close to her. I let her get hurt and sick every other day, and I didn't even know that she had been in a coma for a few days... I really want to see him. Wen Peiji lowered his eyes and smiled softly, "Wait until you wake up..."

"Yuan Qi... don't chase me away..."

A vague sound came out from between the trembling lips and teeth. Wen Peiji, who was closest to him, heard it all and felt like he was struck by lightning! Yuan Qi... Which Yuan Qi? ! Could it be the sickly Yuan Qi from Zhixuan Mountain? ! But wasn't he already... dead?

How did Qianqian get involved with that sickly person? Or... Wen Peiji suddenly felt cold from head to toe, and the blood in his body froze.

Song Wenyuan only heard what she said in a daze, but he didn't hear clearly. Just as he was about to go forward to check, he saw Wen Peiji suddenly turned around and looked at him. With a somewhat stiff and strange smile, he asked in a cold voice, "Speaking of which, as the eldest brother, there are indeed some questions that I can't figure out... Although Qianqian is not pampered in the Wen family, she is at least safe and sound. How come she has been sick or injured every other day since she got involved with you, Song Wenyuan? This time it's even more serious. They even kept the news of her injury secret. Are you planning to just make up an excuse and get rid of it hastily if something happens?"

Song Wenyuan looked particularly honest, with dried blood at the corners of his mouth, making him look pale and fragile, as if he could be blown away by a gust of wind.

He lowered his head and admitted his fault earnestly, "I didn't take good care of her. You can beat me or scold me if you want. The Wen family is worried that the old lady is old and can't bear the blow. If she falls ill, then Song's sin will be even greater... Don't worry, brother, when Qianqian wakes up, I will come to your house to apologize."

The stiffness on Wen Peiji's face became less severe, as if he had gradually adjusted his emotions. Only his obvious dislike remained, and he didn't even bat an eyelid. "What if?"

Song Wenyuan raised his head, his eyes fell on the bed, and he actually curled his lips, looking infinitely gentle, "What if... it doesn't matter, she is just my wife who was brought back in a sedan chair. If she dies, I will go to accompany her after I have apologized to the elders of the Wen family."

Wen Peiji looked over suddenly and was dumbfounded.

Song Wenyuan was a young man with a promising future in the court. His father would often say that he had a promising future. Moreover, he had the "favor of saving the emperor". As long as he had not committed a serious crime that would punish all his clans, His Majesty would not touch him even if he was afraid... Would such a man really die for a woman? If he told others about it, I'm afraid no one would believe it, not even Wen Peiji.

But Song Wenyuan didn't look like he was lying, and there was no need for him to tell such a lie - there were many cases in this world where women were asked to remain faithful to their deceased husbands and die for them, but no one had ever asked a man to live and die with his first wife.

Wen Peiji didn't know what he remembered. He suddenly pulled the corner of his mouth and revealed an extremely sarcastic smile. After a while, he looked at Song Wenyuan with a cold face, "Master Song, please go out first, and let me, as the eldest brother, talk to my sister alone."

Although Song Wenyuan was unwilling, he had no choice but to accept the other party's firm attitude. He was the one who invited this person, and this unruly little girl would not call anyone but "brother". He really had no other choice, so he walked to the door, looking back every few steps, closed the door, but did not leave.

The wind brought by the closing door blew past, causing the candle flame to tremble violently before gradually returning to calm.

Wen Peiji sat beside the bed, looking down at the uneasy girl. His little white rabbit knew medicine. It was said that he met Yuan Ge who came down from Zhixuan Mountain. He felt that they were compatible. After learning for a few days, he was considered half a student... This was also an opportunity, and he believed it at that time. But Yuan Qi from Zhixuan Mountain was a well-known sickly person. Not to mention going down the mountain, I'm afraid that he would be well recovered if he could just walk out of the yard for a few steps. Who would dare to let him go down the mountain?

Wen Peiji traveled abroad in the name of "studying". He had been to the top of the snowy region and under the deep sea. He had seen countless wonders and incredible phenomena. Naturally, he understood that the world was so big that there were all kinds of wonders. One could not believe all the strange and supernatural stories, but one could also not disbelieve them. There were too many things that could not be explained, but they did exist.

When all impossibilities point to only one possibility, then that "only" is the answer.

He raised his hand, but then slowly lowered it, his fingertips curled up and clenched loosely on the edge of the bed, and called softly, "Yuan Ge... wake up, it was just a nightmare."

The voice is gorgeous and slightly lazy, overlapping with that person's warmth across the distance of time and space.
