There are always humans who pursue me [system]

This lyrical and crazy tone sounds really scary in the dark night, and even a brave and strong man will feel creepy when he hears it.But that gentle and warm voice was still calm, obviously he was used to it, and he only asked, "Who is he?"

"...It is the young master of the Ling family that you are going to pick up," the man finally put out the candle under his hand little by little, "Ling, Jiu."

The last two words were pronounced very lightly and softly, as if afraid of alarming the dead souls passing by, the fierce eyebrows and eyes softened a bit, and the ruthless thin lips were slightly raised, and the arc was softened like an iceberg melting, revealing Extraordinary charm.It's like some kind of devil who can only live in the dark. Although it can't coexist with the warm and bright day, it is as wonderful and mysterious as the night sky, and it has the same temptation as the day.

Dangerous and alluring at the same time.

Ling Jiu returned to the East Courtyard where he lived.

Its location is not far from the west courtyard where Qin Zhenghan lives, and it is also an independent and open courtyard, but there are no servants or guards there, at most there will be a few cleaning maids during the day.At night, not even a maid is left, and it looks very deserted.

——But it was by no means that King Anping was negligent. On the contrary, there were too many people scrambling to catch up to serve, and they were all rejected by Lingjiu.

Ling Jiu really didn't need it and was not used to being served by a bunch of servants, and he didn't understand why people on the ancient earth had to arrange several maids to do things like warm the bed.And his attitude of doing everything by himself and not wanting to be waited on by others is simply a mudslide compared to the children of the aristocratic family and the senior civil and military experts who are always yelling and hugging, and it has once again aroused everyone's imagination and heartache. Ling Qiang was blamed for his strength, and his charges would not be cleared in his next life.

But tonight was a bit different. As soon as Ling Jiu stepped into the yard, he saw the lights on inside the house, obviously someone was inside.After pushing open the door, I saw Qin Lie standing in front of the table, putting up everything in the food box. When he saw Ling Jiu, he smiled at him and said, "I specially asked someone to leave a box for you." Even though I’m afraid I’ll eat too much food at night and there’s not much left, but at least it’ll fill my stomach, come and eat it while it’s hot.”

After Ling Jiu heard this, although his face remained expressionless, he immediately sat down obediently, blinking his eyes eagerly watching Qin Lie arrange all the meals, and his fluttering long eyelashes scratched Qin Lie's heart.

In fact, it is not easy for Qin Lie to reserve food, and the fact that a person with a violent temper and nerves can be so considerate is enough to show that he is confused.It's a pity that the person he treats carefully is not only unaware, but also regards his actions as an innate quality of giving personality.

It was so sad that the entire Eastern Wasteland couldn't contain it.

When the food was ready, Ling Jiu started to eat seriously. Qin Lie sat aside and looked at him, just like looking at the most beloved sword he got when he was young, loving every inch and every place. Willing to let go.The boy was wearing simple and clean white clothes today, his long hair was combed obediently behind his head, revealing his smooth and delicate forehead.The lip color is as red as petals, the curve is perfect, and there is a little bit of pouting naturally. He is very focused on picking up a large piece of ribs. The bulging cheeks remind Qin Lie of the little hamster he saw from the businessman of the Western Wilderness before.

The white velvet is round and cute, as long as it is given a little food, it will hug and gnaw seriously, and its cheeks will be round and bulging.I will also look at you with bright eyes, like a pair of sparkling black gems.

The boy had already looked over with bright eyes, "...you too...to eat together."

"I've eaten." Actually, Qin Lie didn't eat much because he was thinking about Ling Jiu, but now he just needs to look at Ling Jiu and he feels very satisfied, "Hurry up and eat more."

So Ling Jiu continued to struggle, and quickly cleared up the few meals, and thanked Qin Lie earnestly.There was also pure gratitude in his eyes, which looked very beautiful under the candlelight, which made Qin Lie's heart skip a beat, but he pretended not to care, "Why are you being polite to me?"

After a pause, he continued: "However, the time will be over, and many servants will be alarmed if I go back now. Can I sleep at Ajiu's place tonight?"

Qin Lie's move was quite clever, and he secretly changed his title to Ajiu. Then, while waiting nervously, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the boy not only did not protest the title, but also nodded in agreement with his request, "...Okay .”

But I don't know that the reason Lingjiu didn't protest is that the title is just a code name for him, no matter what it is called, the reason why he agrees with the other party to stay is because of the sentence in mission [-] that he must provide rescue and help to human beings as much as possible.

It was the first time for Qin Xiaoshizi to sleep with someone in the same bed since he was so old. Just thinking about it made him throb. After the lights were turned off, the room became very quiet, only the occasional wind from outside the window could be heard.Fearing that the overly quiet space would reveal his thoughts, Qin Lie tried to cover up his frantic heartbeat by speaking, "Where did Ajiu go today, and how did he meet the Seventh Prince?"

"...went to the outskirts...the forest,...saw someone...ambushing and besieging...attack."

The mountains and forests in the outskirts can be regarded as the boundaries of Jiangcheng. The besiegers did not attack sooner or later, but they waited until the boundaries of Jiangcheng to act. Obviously they killed two birds with one stone. They wanted to drag King Anping into the water while getting rid of the seventh prince.But Qin Lie is more concerned about the young man in front of him at this moment, "Are you not injured?"

Zero Nine shook his head.

Qin Lie was silent for a moment, then changed the subject and continued: "By the way, does Ajiu talk in his sleep when he sleeps?"

Ling Jiu, who didn't need to sleep at all, shook his head again.

"What about grinding your teeth or snoring?"

Ling Jiu shook his head again, - he didn't even know what grinding teeth and snoring were.

Qin Lie was still looking for something to say: "Then what about sleepwalking?"

In Lingjiu's understanding, human sleep is equivalent to the artificial human's standby sleep, and the artificial human will maintain the same posture before the preset start time is reached, so shaking the head for the Nth time, "... also Won't."

Suddenly I feel a little ashamed that I don’t know anything, and feel that being a human being is so hard, and I need to know so many things to sleep.But there is the second task, no matter how hard it is, you have to work hard, so I sincerely said: "...Although I...can't...know one of the...but I will be...easy to learn."

After hearing this, Qin Lie was stunned for a few seconds before explaining in a distressed and funny way: "No no, Ajiu, you don't need to learn these things, it would be better if you don't know them."

Ling Jiu blinked, his gaze was still full of doubts, like a ignorant animal, giving Qin Lie the urge to kiss his eyelashes. "But my mother and concubine said that I used to talk in my sleep," Qin Lie continued to explain, "Because I liked eating pine nut candy very much when I was young, so I even talked about pine nut candy in my dreams; when I grew up, I also liked to practice martial arts. Sword, changed to talking about swordsmanship in the dream. Probably thinking about it every day and dreaming about it at night——does Ajiu have anything he particularly likes?"

This is already the N1 time Zero Nine shook his head tonight, "...no."

Everything is the same in the eyes of the man-made man, and naturally it doesn’t matter whether he likes it or not, but he was a little disappointed when he said this—it turns out that he only talks in his sleep if he likes something, so he will probably never learn. I won't talk in my sleep anymore, and I don't know if it will affect the completion of task two.

Qin Lie heard the loss of the young man, and couldn't help feeling more distressed. He wished he could hold him in his arms and pat him gently, then turned to him seriously and said, "It's okay, Ajiu is still young, take your time, and you will always be happy in the future." There will be a day when you meet something you like very much. At that time, you must tell me that thing, no matter how rare it is, I will help you get it and deliver it to you in person, okay?"

"…it is good."

"Go to sleep."

"…Um."

The two closed their eyes at the same time, one fell asleep and the other was on standby, but the former opened his eyes again after half a cup of tea, secretly looking at the profile of his sweetheart by the moonlight.The moonlight was not bright tonight, but Qin Lie felt that Ling Jiu's eyebrows and eyes were extremely clear, and every inch seemed to be engraved on his heart.And the young man's face was undefended, with a hint of innocence in his purity, his sleeping posture was very upright, his hands folded on his abdomen, like a good baby in a school.The dark brocade quilt set off the small piece of his exposed wrist like fine milk porcelain, so Qin Lie couldn't help stretching out his hand and holding it gently.

It was unbelievably soft to the touch, and cool and smooth like jade. The moment Qin Lie interlocked his fingers, he felt like a volcano was erupting in his heart. The hot magma was constantly exploding like fireworks, and he even stopped breathing.He held his breath for a while, then retracted his hand like a thief, and then smirked as if thinking of something, as if he had taken the wrong medicine.

The first object every man has a crush on when he is young is the most beautiful, no matter whether he gets it or not, it will be unforgettable throughout his life.Qin Xiaoshizi didn't sleep almost all night, and only closed his eyes when it was almost dawn, which made him unable to wake up at the usual wake-up time.And he seems to be the only one who didn't sleep, and the Seventh Prince didn't seem to be resting well, his face looked paler than last night, but he got up as early as usual, and after washing up, he took the guards to the The front hall, in order to read the will of the Emperor Donghuang as early as possible.

Jiangcheng is very foggy. In late autumn, no matter in the morning or at night, there will be fog on the road surface, like a layer of rippling white gauze, covering people's sight.In the case of reduced vision, people's sense of smell or hearing tends to increase accordingly, Qin Zhenghan unexpectedly keenly smelled a faint milky fragrance on the road turning.

People in the Eastern Wasteland do not have the habit of drinking milk, and even think it is cheap and vulgar food, especially for high-ranking royals or noble families.But in the northern desert country with vast grasslands, strong cattle, strong sheep and fat, people not only like to drink milk since childhood, but also like to eat various dairy products.And Qin Zhenghan's mother and concubine are from the Northern Wilderness Country, who will boil milk for him in the morning and make delicious snacks such as milk cakes and tofu for him on weekdays. Unfortunately, the other party has passed away for many years.

Maybe it's because I haven't smelled this smell for so long that it can easily bring out nostalgia, and the long childhood memories are suddenly brought back like this, which made Qin Zhenghan couldn't help but stop in his tracks.He even subconsciously walked towards the direction where the fragrance of milk came, and then walked outside an unknown door.

There is a young man inside the door. He is standing sideways in front of the stove by the window. His slender body and delicate side face have a hazy beauty under the mist and backlight, making people feel like they are peeping through frosted glass. It's as indistinct as a lantern, but the colorful halo it refracts is extremely dazzling.

Zero Nine is concentrating on boiling milk.

According to his figure, it is indeed abnormal to eat several bowls of rice every day, so he adopted the third generation's suggestion and tried to drink milk instead of eating.He 'started' on time at five o'clock in the morning. After learning the human waking process and meticulously finishing all the procedures such as dressing, hair, and face washing, he began to go out to find milk.Then I was lucky enough to get a jar of fresh milk from the cook, and I dug out a small milk pot from an unknown corner of the kitchen, and went to the unused small stove next door to start a fire.

Ruyu's fingers held the long spoon and stirred the milk pot in circles. The milk in the pot was boiled to bubbling and bubbling. The window sills filled the room, and the golden light overlapped on the young man, bright and lingering.The milk that has been boiled emits a thicker and thicker milky aroma, floating in the air together with the faint aroma of crabapple outside the window. The whole room seems to be filled with warm sweetness, which makes people just look at it. You can feel a soft heart.

Qin Zhenghan stared blankly for a moment, until Ling Jiu met his eyes when he turned around and put the milk pot on the table.

So the two of them looked at each other again in this morning's twilight morning after they looked at each other last night, and asked at the same time: "...do you want a drink?"/"...what's your name?"

Ling Jiu's voice is very pleasant, but still has a mechanical sluggishness; Qin Zhenghan's voice is a little dry due to the lack of focus just now, but it is still warm like a spring breeze.And Ling Jiu used the characteristic movements when he was confused, and tilted his head slightly, "...you already...know...my name?"

Qin Zhenghan didn't answer, but looked at him quickly in silence, and then showed an unusually gentle smile as if confirming something, "Ling Jiu?"

Zero nine nodded.

Seeing this, Qin Zhenghan showed a more gentle smile to Ling Jiu, as if he had waited for a long time, finally waiting for the person he wanted to see, even revealing an indescribable deep meaning, and finally said softly: "... ...I am very happy to see you, really...Three lives are lucky, and nine deaths are without complaint."
