Embers

Ember lowered her eyelids, and let go of her hand, but the little white cat was unwilling to leave his palm, and her head was bent into his hand vigorously.

He frowned slightly, got up and entered the room, and gently closed the door.

Li Mei soon smiled, went into the yard, picked up the kitten and handed it to Shao Yunqi, her body quietly blocking the door.

Shao Yunqi took the cat in a daze, his eyes still fixed on the door of the back room, and said thank you absentmindedly.

Li Mei smiled meaningfully: "It doesn't matter, as long as it is taken care of in the future."

Shao Yunqi vaguely felt that this sentence was not very pleasant to his ear, so he withdrew his eyes and looked straight at Li Mei. After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't help asking: "Well, I have a very presumptuous question. I don't know if I should ask it or not?"

Li Mei's voice was gentle, like an elder: "Since you feel presumptuous, why bother to ask?"

Shao Yunqi's face burned, and he hugged the cat and left embarrassingly.

He is only 19 years old this year, but Li Mei is already in her forties, speaking in such a tone, he is powerless to refute.

After closing the door quickly, Li Mei lost expression.

Just when he was in a complicated mood, a voice sounded above his head: "Hold for a while."

He froze for a moment, turned around, and Ember appeared behind him at some point, with no expression on his face, and handed him the Jiujiu he was holding in his hand.

He took it, and his warm and soft body dispelled all his emotions in an instant.

He raised his head and was about to say something, but saw Ember walking straight towards the kitchen.

He was a little inexplicable, could it be that he was hungry?But there is nothing to eat in the kitchen now.

Then he walked over quickly and said, "What do you want to eat, I'll make it—"

The sound stopped abruptly.

Ember was washing a few cucumbers, when she heard the sound, she turned her head and glanced at him, expressionless.

He asked in disbelief, "You want to cook?"

"Ah."

Responding lazily, Ember didn't talk nonsense, but the movements of her hands were skillful and neat, her eyelashes drooping slightly, her appearance was pleasing to the eye.

Yes, he should be able to cook. When he was at Xiaxianmen back then, Uncle Wu was stingy and didn't want to spend money to hire a cook, so he insisted on cooking by himself, and Ember learned from him.

But for so many years, he hasn't cooked any more, and only Ye Bozhou can eat the food he cooks.

Li Mei was suddenly flattered: "You are..."

He didn't continue talking, and Ember didn't answer either.He stood at the door and thought for a long time, and suddenly understood, his mood was hard to describe.

The older he gets, the more gentle this person becomes, and everything he does becomes more and more unbearable.

I will be able to eat soon, two dishes, very vegetarian, smells delicious, and looks very good.Li Mei held the chopsticks for a long time, reluctant to move.

Ember raised her eyebrows slightly.

He took a sip.It's delicious, as if I've never eaten such a delicious food.

Ember saw his expression, didn't say anything, just moved the plate closer to him calmly.

In the middle of the night, Ember heard a slight movement beside her, did not open her eyes, and listened intently, and then heard a very low gasp.

He opened his eyes silently and lit the lamp.

Li Mei's eyes were red, and all the panicked looks fell into his eyes.

"Why are you awake? Did I disturb you?"

"No, just thirsty. Have a nightmare?"

Li Mei was startled, and quickly continued: "Yes, I had a nightmare."

As he said that, he hurried down to pour water for him.

Ember looked at his figure silently, took the water and drank it up, watched him go to bed, and suddenly stretched out her arm to hook his head over.

Falling into his arms unexpectedly, Li Mei still hadn't reacted, she just stared blankly at his chin which was right in front of her eyes.

Ember raised her hand and pulled the quilt to cover the two of them, blew out the candle, and said calmly, "Go to sleep."

Li Mei wanted to sleep, but couldn't fall asleep at all, instead she became more and more awake.

Not hearing even breathing, Ember sighed inwardly, and said in a low voice: "Want?"

"..."

Before he could answer, Ember had already forced the two of them to switch places, and her whole body was on top of him.

Feeling a gentle kiss on his neck, Li Mei closed her eyes and relaxed her body, put her arms around his neck, and said, "I didn't want to, but now I do."

A majestic and virtuous prince, Shao Yunqi felt that he had been having a seizure recently, so why did he do all kinds of degrading things.

Ever since I found out where the man lived, I always went to the gate whenever I had something to do. The people there seldom came out, and there were few residents nearby. An alley was always quiet. He went to stand for a while. Yes, after a couple of walks, I even counted the branches of the pear tree in front of the house.

Most of the time, the yard is quiet, and occasionally footsteps or cats can be heard.Even if someone spoke, it was the fair man, and the other voice could only be heard very rarely.

That day I went to pretend to be passing by again, and just about to leave, I suddenly heard a voice from the yard, it was the voice of the fair-skinned man: "Why do I feel that something is wrong with Jiujiu recently? It doesn't taste good, and it doesn't throw itself into our arms, is it sick?"

A deep and sweet voice with a hint of hoarse sounded: "Lovesickness."

"……what?"

The voice added indifferently: "The female cat next door is lost."

"..."

Then came the sound of footsteps and the sound of opening and closing the door. It should be that person entering the house.

After wandering here for so long, he knew very well that there were only two people living in this house, and one of them was already familiar with his voice, while the other had never spoken.

He was a little excited when he heard that person speak for the first time, thinking over and over again the phrase "The female cat next door is lost" that was not worth recalling, and almost missed hitting the tree.

At this moment, he heard footsteps coming towards the door, and Ji Ling immediately escaped with some light work that he could handle.

The next moment, the door of the house opened.Li Mei looked around for a while, then bent down to pick up the wooden sign on the ground.

After returning to the mansion, Shao Yunqi realized that he had lost his token.

He thought about it carefully for a long time, and felt that he must have landed in that place.

But looking for it in an open and honest manner felt that it would not work. What if someone saw it?pass by?That place is obviously so remote.

He decided to go there in the middle of the night.

The night was like water, and the moonlight was bright and clear. He quietly appeared at the door of the man's house in a night suit. He lay on the ground and searched for a long time under the moonlight, but he didn't see the familiar sign.

"Strange, it's obviously here..."

He couldn't help but read it in a low voice. When he was wondering, he heard a "whoosh" sound, and an unknown object fell from the sky and landed right in front of his eyes.

He was startled, and took a closer look, isn't it his token!

Immediately raised his head, and then the whole person froze in place.

The snow-white hair stood out in the night, although Shao Yunqi couldn't see his expression clearly, he could already feel the insightful gaze.

Ember flew down from the wall, her clothes fluttered, and landed in front of him like a fairy.

"you……"

His first reaction was, how could this person's lightness kung fu be so brilliant!It floated down without making even the slightest sound.

He knows martial arts?

Ember looked at him condescendingly, and said calmly, "I've returned the things to you, don't come here again."

All Shao Yunqi's thoughts died in his mind immediately.

I also realized in an instant, in fact, this person has always known everything.

Can't help but start to panic, but still refused to admit it: "Ben... I just like to look at the pear blossoms at the door, how beautiful they are!"

Ember didn't bother to expose him.

It's been a few months, and the pear blossoms have all fallen early.

Seeing that he was silent, Shao Yunqi suddenly became uneasy: "Don't be silent, I..."

But "I" didn't come up with a reason for a long time.

The author has something to say:

These two days... Well, something happened three times, I won't go into details, I should make up more on May Day.

Then my QQ is 203015213... hmm (sudden shame)
