impossible.

In the next second, the old housekeeper denied this unreliable conjecture. He looked at the boy who was lying on the bed and was no more than 17 years old, and asked Ye Gucheng in a low voice: "City lord, this is the apprentice you recruited in the Central Plains." ?”

The old butler himself knows martial arts, but his aptitude is not high, and he has been stuck at the second-rate level all his life.

With his eyesight, he can naturally see that Chu Xiao is good at martial arts, but he can't see the specific realm of Chu Xiao - that is to say, Chu Xiao's martial arts level is at least one level above his.

With such martial arts at this age, this kid's aptitude is definitely not bad. If he is exceptionally talented in the way of swordsmanship, it seems reasonable to make an exception and accept an apprentice given the temperament of his city lord.

Ye Gucheng: "No."

"Then who is this young master?" The old housekeeper felt that he was probably old and his head was not bright enough. Anyway, apart from the unreliable guess of the lover and the barely reliable guess of the apprentice, he couldn't think of a third possibility.

"……friend."

Before giving a reply, Ye Gucheng paused imperceptibly for a moment.

This is really strange, the old housekeeper's eyes widened in surprise, and he said that his city lord had never made friends, so he found one with great difficulty, and he turned out to be a boy ten years younger than him... This can be regarded as a year-end friendship Bar?

The old butler's thoughts were almost written on his face, which made Ye Gucheng unable to help: "..."

Suddenly feel a little cold.

The old housekeeper quickly went to close the door: "City Lord, you should also hurry up and change your clothes."

Ye Gucheng's clothes were wet when he came back with Chu Xiao in his arms, but his attention was always on Chu Xiao, and he didn't seem to notice it - the old housekeeper felt very relieved, the city lord who had friends Sure enough, it's more humane.

In the future, he must urge the kitchen to cook more soup for the city lord's children!

When Chu Xiao passed out, he didn't feel much. After waking up, he thought he had just soaked in the hot spring and fell asleep. He felt that he probably slept through the attack period. Although he still felt a little uncomfortable, his hands and feet had regained consciousness. .

He stretched his arms habitually before opening his eyes.

uh... this is...

Ye Gucheng was halfway through changing his clothes, when he suddenly felt a fiery gaze behind him, he paused, and then turned his head back with a cold face - the person lying on the bed had his eyes closed, as if he still hadn't woken up from the coma.

If one ignores his extraordinarily rosy complexion at this moment and the rolling eyeballs under his eyelids, Ye Gucheng might be fooled.

It's a pity that there is no if.

Okay(╯▽╰)

Chu Xiao, who failed to pretend, opened his eyes, smiled at Ye Gucheng with a flattering face, and then quickly hid his face under the quilt, leaving only a pair of big flickering eyes exposed, the chicken thief's small appearance , Ye Gucheng's displeasure instantly turned into helplessness.

Only then did the old housekeeper notice that Chu Xiao had woken up.

"Young master is awake, is there any discomfort, do you want a glass of water?"

Looking at the loving grandfather in front of him, Chu Xiao blinked, and exposed his face from the quilt again: "You are?" He was just admiring the scene of Ye Gucheng changing clothes, and didn't notice it at all. There are other people on the side.

"The old slave is the housekeeper of the house, if you need anything, just ask."

The old butler's tone was extremely gentle, as if he was afraid that Chu Xiao would be frightened if he spoke louder. He didn't see Chu Xiao's interaction with Ye Gucheng just now, so seeing Chu Xiao hiding his head after waking up, he thought he was afraid of strangers .

Chu Xiao rolled his eyes, and called out to the butler Grandpa with a very cute expression.

The old butler burst into laughter instantly.

After changing his clothes, Ye Gucheng walked out from behind the screen, and stood in front of Chu Xiao with a blank expression: "What are you thinking again?"

After getting along for so long, Ye Gucheng has figured out someone's temper. Under normal circumstances, as long as he shows such a particularly harmless expression, he must be planning some small calculations.

Chu Xiao raised his eyebrows angrily, "You're jealous."

"..." Ye Gucheng endured and endured, and finally he couldn't hold back, and raised his hand to reward someone with a brain collapse.

Chu Xiao immediately covered his forehead with no trace left and hummed: "It hurts, it hurts, qwq I just woke up and you treat me like this, you are not gentle and considerate at all!"

Gentle?

Ye Gucheng's eyes turned cold, and he decisively pulled Chu Xiao out of the bed, then raised his arms——

"I was wrong, I was wrong!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Chu Xiao confessed in minutes, put his arms around Ye Gucheng's arm and said with a dry smile: "A gentleman speaks but does not move, you don't remember villains, don't talk to me. care about."

However, Ye Gucheng is now determined to teach the increasingly arrogant Chu Xiao a lesson.

He easily pulled out his arm, and threw Chu Xiao, who was thrashing non-stop, onto the bed, raising his hand to continue the previous action.

"Hey hey..."

With a 'plop' sound, the old housekeeper's legs softened and he sat down on the ground.

Ye Gucheng stopped his movements again, turned his head together with Chu Xiao who was lying on the bed, and looked at the old housekeeper.

"I, I'm fine." The old housekeeper's smile was uglier than crying: "It's just that I'm getting old, and my legs are a little weak after standing for a long time." And the heart is not very good, and it can't stand the stimulation.

God knows how broken his heart was when he saw his city lord flirting with that boy!

The conjecture he thought was the most unreliable turned out to be true - Baiyun City is about to welcome a man - Mrs. City Lord, if this news gets out...

No, no, even if the whole world opposes it, as the most competent and loyal subordinate in Baiyun City who grew up watching the city lord, he has to support the city lord's decision no matter what.

Thinking about it better, marrying a male wife is at least more reliable than marrying a sword?

The old housekeeper pulled himself together and climbed up with the help of the foot of the bed: "Don't worry, city lord."

Ye Gucheng: "?"

"The old slave promises that there will never be a single person in the whole Baiyun City who will dare to object to your decision." If anyone dares to object, hehe, the old butler said that although he is not good at martial arts, he still has the ability to straighten people out.

After saying these words, the old butler left the room with arrogance.

Oh, by the way, after he went out, he still didn't forget to close the door intimately: "Hey, you two continue, I will instruct my servants not to disturb them."

Ye Gucheng: "..." I always feel that the older the butler is, the more lively he is.

Chu Xiao: "..." Take advantage of this moment to sneak away!

Just as Chu Xiao crawled up, his eyes blurred, and he was lifted by his waist and hung in mid-air. Behind him came Ye Gucheng's chilly voice: "It seems that you have almost recovered."

so?

"Didn't you say you have learned new moves?" So, let's go to the martial arts field to exercise our muscles and bones.

Chu Xiao: The hero, spare your life!

Ye Gucheng also gave advice to Chu Xiao in the past, but most of the advice was verbal. He occasionally raised his hands, and he never drew his sword.

The moment he drew his sword out of its scabbard, Chu Xiao knew that he was going to have a hard time today, but he never expected that Ye Gucheng would really hate him to death.

Dear, have you ever felt the taste of despair?

Chu Xiao enthusiastically recommends it to you based on his personal experience: If you want to deeply understand what despair is, please come to Feixian Island Baiyun City and Ye Gu City to compete, and the preservation will make you more satisfied :)

Ye Gucheng: ...doesn't even see blood so it's so exaggerated▼_▼

Chu Xiao who went out sideways and came back paralyzed: The baby doesn't want to talk to you and doesn't even bother to turn his eyes to show you hehehe.

Looking at Chu Xiao, who was paralyzed on the bed and covered with resentment, Ye Gucheng reluctantly explained: "Your swordsmanship has improved very quickly."

In fact, Chu Xiao's swordsmanship has advanced enough to make Ye Gucheng take it seriously.

If it weren't for this, he wouldn't show [-]% of his strength when he made a move.

Chu Xiao closed his eyes, and simply put on a posture of seeing nothing. He was really angry at the moment, because Ye Gucheng only had the sword in his eyes when he made the final blow.

Only the sword remained.

If he hadn't erupted in time and dodged the sword, Chu Xiao was sure that even if the sword really pierced his chest, Ye Gucheng would not hesitate at all.

This is a peerless swordsman, a peerless swordsman who only has the sword in his heart once he draws the sword, and can't accommodate other peers.

Chu Xiao clearly realized that he may be able to occupy a place in Ye Gucheng's heart, but his status may never surpass Ye Gucheng's pursuit of the sword.

He was shaken.

Because he also knows what kind of character he is.

If he is with Ye Gucheng, if his feelings for Ye Gucheng change from liking to love, at that time, he must not be able to bear that his weight in Ye Gucheng's heart is not more important than other things.

Do you want to get out in time before your feet sink into the mud?

Reason told Chu Xiao that he should choose to withdraw, but the strong unwillingness in his heart made Chu Xiao entangled. It was the first time in his life that he liked someone, and if he gave up halfway like this, he would definitely feel regretful and unwilling.

Ye Gucheng had a headache.

He could see that Chu Xiao was unhappy at the moment, even more unhappy than when he was on the boat before, but he really didn't know how to deal with it-obviously, this was no longer a problem that could be solved with an apology.

The point is that Ye Gucheng didn't feel that he had done anything wrong.

He hesitated for a while, and finally sat on the edge of the bed, reaching out to pat Chu Xiao's head.

"I..." Ye Gucheng started to talk, but he had nothing to say. After a while, he finally continued abruptly: "I have seen a swordsman who is about your age."

"His name is Gong Jiu."

"He can use a sword that is on par with me."

Chu Xiao couldn't bear it anymore.

He got up suddenly, grabbed Ye Gucheng's collar viciously, and said angrily: "He is so powerful, then you should go to him, you two should just get together, so that I can give up and leave you!" Far away!"

Ye Gucheng frowned, and said seriously: "Although Gong Jiu's swordsmanship is good, his character is too bad." In other words, no matter what he did, it was impossible for him to fall in love with that kind of person.

Chu Xiao almost cried out of anger.

Who the hell wants to discuss this with you, bastard (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

"You..." Noticing Chu Xiao's faintly red eyes, Ye Gucheng was startled, and a strange and indescribable feeling suddenly rose in his heart.

That feeling prompted Ye Gucheng to do something that he would not have done otherwise.
