startled autumn

Shen Zhiqiu and Yue Yin walked in front, You Ming followed leisurely behind, and the three of them descended Mo Yifeng together.

As soon as he left the gate of Moyi Mountain, he saw Han Banbu happily waving his whip and shouting, "Mr. Shen, here!"

Standing in front of the car, Han Bi was dressed in a moon-white brocade dress. He was very handsome and very conspicuous. He raised his eyes and smiled at Shen Zhiqiu who was on the steps. He looked like a begonia just blooming. Against the rare spring, his whole body was shining brightly.

Shen Zhiqiu paused in his steps, but his foot missed the ground, and he looked like he was about to fall down the stairs.

Seeing him stumbling so unprecedentedly, Han Bi's eyes lit up, and he hurried forward, trying to catch him, but Shen Zhiqiu's reaction was extremely quick. After adjusting his posture, he turned around and landed firmly on the ground.

Han Bi: "..."

Shen Zhiqiu smiled and said, "I'm fine."

Han Bi felt lost in his heart, but couldn't see it on the surface, and joked to him, "Can't you let me save you once?"

Shen Zhiqiu said calmly: "You can't handle the distance just now."

Han Bi was speechless.

Shen Zhiqiu thought for a while, and seriously suggested: "However, I can fall again now."

Han Bi wanted to refuse at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he was a little moved.

Yue Yin watched from the side, only felt that they were sick, coughed lightly, and interrupted: "It's time to go."

Han Bi pulled Shen Zhiqiu who was about to fall again to his side, and asked, "Where is your senior brother?"

Mentioning Xiao Shaoling, Shen Zhiqiu couldn't help sighing: "Senior brother was imprisoned by the master uncle yesterday."

Han Bi raised his eyebrows: "Why?"

Shen Zhiqiu replied truthfully: "I don't know who reported to the master master that the sword that he forged with his own hands last year and was broken before being sharpened was actually broken by the brother."

Han Bi said meaningfully: "So that's how it is."

"Brother said that when he comes out of the confinement room, the person who reported him will be unable to get out of bed for three days." Shen Zhiqiu said.

Yue Yin smiled lightly, and said righteously: "I will definitely help Eldest Brother at that time."

Shen Zhiqiu didn't know the truth, and was moved: "Junior Brother Yue, you are really kind to Senior Brother."

Han Bi looked at him tenderly, feeling that this man was really innocent and easy to deceive.

At the time of departure, Han Bi naturally let Yue Yin and You Ming ride in the same car, so as not to affect the world between him and Shen Zhiqiu. Greeting him to get on the car, he said with a smile: "Mr. You, don't worry, Mr. Han has always been kind to his second senior brother."

You Ming snorted coldly: "You are familiar with Mr. Han, so you must speak for him."

Yue Yin narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Even though Second Senior Brother is simple, he still has calculations in his heart."

"If he was concerned, why did he leave his hometown ten years ago?" You Ming frowned.

Yue Yin sighed: "Mr. You, not to mention that ten years have passed, he is no longer what he used to be, besides, Mr. Han's character is actually not as frivolous as he looks on the outside."

You Ming replied lightly: "I hope so."

In the carriage on the other side, Han Bi took Bai Yan's letter, thinking about whether to show it to Shen Zhiqiu.

There was something about Shen Zhiqiu in the letter, so naturally he shouldn't hide it from him, but when Han Bi thought that it was full of Lu Zheliu's stories, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Especially the part where Lu Zheliu called Shen Zhiqiu's name in his sleep.

Shen Zhiqiu didn't know what he was hesitating about, but just looked at him quietly without opening his mouth.

Han Bi finally made up his mind and handed over the letter: "Written by Bai Yan."

Shen Zhiqiu glanced at Han Bi suspiciously, took the letter, and slowly flipped through it, his expression always calm.

"It turns out that Bai Yan and Lu Zheliu have always known each other." Shen Zhiqiu said lightly.

Han Bi didn't understand his point: "So?"

Shen Zhiqiu: "I don't think Lu Zheliu regards Bai Yan as a friend."

Han Bi naturally wouldn't say good things for Lu Zheliu, nodded and said: "Indeed."

If it was a friend, how could he sacrifice the Fuluan Sect without blinking an eye, and even end Bai Yan's life with a single sword?Shen Zhiqiu couldn't help thinking that ten years ago, Lu Zheliu also stabbed him with a sword without hesitation. He never thought of the reason, but if he realized something at this moment, could it be that his existence threatened Lu Zheliu's own body at that time? Benefits made him the killer?

Shen Zhiqiu couldn't figure this out, so he had to ask Han Bi.

Han Bi knew that Shen Zhiqiu wouldn't think too much even after reading the manuscript, so he had to tell him all of his conjectures: "Lu Zheliu went to Yancheng under the orders of 'father', and Lu Zheliu and Bai Yan They all come from a mysterious organization 'Kuting', that is to say, their so-called father is the owner of Kuting."

"What Master Kuting wants is the Fengqiu sword left by your father. From this point of view, this Fengqiu sword must have a lot to say." Han Bi concluded.

Shen Zhiqiu recalled: "He Li said that the most important part of the Fengqiu sword is the scabbard."

Han Bi: "In that case, bring me the scabbard next time and let me have a look."

Shen Zhiqiu hesitated a little.

Han Bi knew that he was bitten by a snake once and was afraid of well ropes for ten years. He was both angry and distressed at the moment, so he asked softly, "Don't you believe me?"

Back then Lu Zheliu could completely abandon his friends because of Feng Qiujian, who knows if Han Bi would do the same today?Han Bi felt that if Shen Zhiqiu learned to guard against others through the experience of ten years ago, there would be nothing wrong with it.

"It's not that I don't believe you." Shen Zhiqiu carefully considered his words, and finally repeated firmly, "That's not the case."

Han Bi smiled and said, "How is that?"

Shen Zhiqiu frowned and said: "They want the Fengqiu sword, and even burn Yancheng in a frenzy. It can be seen that it is too dangerous. I can't let you participate. If something happens to you, I won't have time to protect you..."

Han Bi interrupted him, "I can't let you face this matter alone."

Shen Zhiqiu was silent, but his attitude was firm.

"Do you understand?" Han Bi stretched out his hand to him, the palm just covering the back of his hand, "I'm comparing my heart to my heart."

Shen Zhiqiu couldn't help being moved, his eyes softened.

Han Bi twitched the corners of his mouth, pretending to be nonchalant and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't have any accidents before you promise me."

Shen Zhiqiu was distracted by the temperature on the back of his hand, his heart was beating wildly, and he asked in a daze, "Promise what?"

"You did it on purpose, right? You want to coax me to say it again." Han Bi said in a stern tone, "You have learned badly now."

Shen Zhiqiu finally woke up, his cheeks were flushed, and he said, "I didn't, I know."

Han Bi deliberately teased him: "You know it again, but tell me what you know."

Shen Zhiqiu hurriedly clarified that he was not a scheming person, and quickly replied, "That's right, you want to spend your whole life with me."

"Okay." Han Bi laughed.

Shen Zhiqiu finally knew that he had been tricked, but he couldn't say anything about him, so he lowered his head and continued to read the handbook, not daring to talk to him anymore.

Until Shen Zhiqiu saw "Fang Hezi" calling his name in his sleep, the movement of turning the pages stopped, and the pages were pinched between his fingers for a long time. Han Bi caught a glimpse of his reaction from the corner of his eye, My heart sank.

Han Bi pinched his palm lightly and said in a low voice, "What are you looking at?"

Shen Zhiqiu replied softly: "I don't understand."

"Tell me?" Han Bi asked.

Shen Zhiqiu sighed: "If he still wanted to be friends with me, why did he do that?"

Han Bi only felt that these words were heavy and heavy, and directly hit a hole in his heart, but he asked calmly: "If he hurt you back then and apologized to you, would you forgive him?" ?”

Shen Zhiqiu shook his head slowly.

"I can't forgive him for this matter." Shen Zhiqiu's voice was tinged with chill, "He stole the Fengqiu sword, burned my city of Yan, and insulted many people. I can't replace these things. They forgive."

Han Bi breathed a sigh of relief: "Since you understand, why bother now."

Shen Zhiqiu pursed his lips lightly, and said in confusion: "Maybe it's because I liked him once, so once I mention the past, I will still be touched."

It's good not to mention this matter, but Han Bi regretted it when he mentioned it. If he had known today, he would never have talked nonsense with Shen Zhiqiu, "After all, this is a thing in the past."

Shen Zhiqiu raised his eyes and stared at Han Bi for a moment, then lowered his eyes and said, "If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't know that I liked him."

Han Bi smiled, but his eyes were blackened with anger in his heart, thinking that he is indeed the person I like, and there are a hundred ways to piss him off just by talking, and each time is different, which is really rare.

"Ah Xuan, it's good to know you." Shen Zhiqiu said with a smile, "If it wasn't for you, I'm afraid I'd be stuck in the inner demon realm and couldn't get out."

It was the first time for Han Bi to hear this matter, so he quickly asked in detail, he was in a good mood, raised his eyebrows and said, "So, I saved you."

As soon as the words fell, Han Bi felt that it was really not easy for him.

When Shen Zhiqiu said "I like Lu Zheliu, but Lu Zheliu doesn't like me", Han Bi thought that I am not stupid, I will never tell you the truth in this life.

But at the next moment, Shen Zhiqiu went on in frustration, "I tried my best to treat him well. He doesn't like me, so I can't blame him. However, when I think about it occasionally, I still feel a little sad for some reason."

Han Bi asked: "Are you sad because he doesn't like you?"

Shen Zhiqiu shook his head and said, "I don't really understand these things."

Han Bi asked again: "If I don't like you anymore, will you be sad?"

Shen Zhiqiu's pupils darkened for a moment, only to hear him say in a cold voice: "I've expected it a long time ago."

Han Bi understood.

A relationship that withers before it blooms will not bring him too much pain, but it will make him deny himself unconsciously.

With a personality like Shen Zhiqiu who is used to introspection, when faced with a terrible first love, he will not blame others, but will always ask himself, count his mistakes, and subconsciously think that he is not worthy of being liked.

Han Bi thought that Shen Zhiqiu was heartless, but in fact he was just dull, too slow to realize his own feelings, and too slow to heal those deep-seated scars by himself.

"What are you thinking?" Han Bi rarely got angry with him, "Shen Zhiqiu, if I had known you were thinking this way, I would..."

Shen Zhiqiu looked at him in bewilderment, Han Bi was about to teach him a lesson, but was stunned by his expression.

People feel pain after being injured in order not to be injured in the same place again in the future.

Most of the first moments of love are unforgettable. Some people forget the pain after healing their scars, but Shen Zhiqiu didn’t even have time to feel the pain, and was cut off by Lu Zheliu’s sword. Although the process was extremely fast, the wound was still there. , When a new relationship comes, the unhealed wound begins to ache.

Only Shen Zhiqiu knows later.

Han Bi frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "Listen to me..."

Yue Yin's voice came from outside, interrupting them just in time: "Young Master Han, Second Senior Brother, Xixi Bieyuan is here."

"Understood." Han Bi responded in a deep voice, seeing that Shen Zhiqiu was still angry, he had to whisper, "I'll teach you a lesson later."

Shen Zhiqiu didn't know why, so he nodded habitually, and followed Han Bi out of the car.

Xixi Bieyuan, as the name suggests, is located in the western suburbs of the capital. It is one of Han Bi’s other courtyards. There is a clear mountain stream in the courtyard, and the four seasons are cold, so it is called Xixi Bieyuan. Han Bi occasionally comes here to escape the summer heat. Zhu Heng was given to recuperate.

You Ming looked at the surrounding environment, only felt that the trees were shady, quiet and elegant, especially suitable for patients to live in, and then said: "I have roughly asked Yue Yin on the way, that girl Zhu Heng has a strange poison in her body, and her life is long. It’s really rare to not give up your life despite suffering.”

Yue Yin sighed: "Miss Zhu Heng is now bearing the lives of the two sisters, please Dr. You take more care."

You Ming replied: "I have always treated patients equally."

Because Zhu Heng forcibly quit Yulu Rouge, now she can only lie on the bed all day long, her face is haggard, and she doesn't see the charming and bright appearance of that day. A piece of paper, You Ming felt her pulse at the side, also frowning.

Yue Yin asked the maid: "What did she eat these past few days? Why is she so thin?"

The maid said sadly: "There is porridge for three meals. Although the girl vomits after eating, she is still very cooperative and eats as much as she vomits."

Zhu Heng explained with a smile: "Don't blame her, I've always looked like this, but I'm too lazy to dress up, so you can laugh at me." After a pause, she looked at Han Bi, and thanked, "Mr. Han's maids are all very nice. OK, I'm grateful."

Han Bi sighed: "You are inconvenient, we should have avoided suspicion." No woman would like to let a group of men see herself seriously ill and weak.

Zhu Heng shook his head and said: "What's the matter, no matter how miserable it is, you have all seen it before, and this time is not bad." After that, she bent her eyes and smiled, and the beauty of the past could be vaguely seen between her brows, "At least I will let you They combed my hair, which is worthy of your eyes."

"It's beautiful." Yue Yin smiled at her.

Zhu Heng glanced at him and said softly, "Mr. Yue doesn't need to coax me."

Yue Yin's complexion was not fair, but now he was faintly reddened, and he replied in a low voice, "It's really pretty."

After Shen Zhiqiu came in, he didn't say a word, but now he finally found an opportunity, and said truthfully, "It's really not as good-looking as you used to be." Compared with sincerity, ten Yue Yin bundled together can't match Shen Zhiqiu's words.

Zhu Heng was amused by him, laughed twice and couldn't help coughing again.

Han Bi thought, I didn't teach it well, and quickly whispered into Shen Zhiqiu's ear: "Yue Yin is talking to her, why are you joining in the fun?"

Shen Zhiqiu said blankly, "I'm just telling the truth."

Yue Yin glared at him, then said softly to Zhu Heng who was on the bed: "My senior brother can't speak, so ignore him."

Zhu Heng was smiling peacefully watching them squabble, but he couldn't help but feel a sore throat. It would be great if Qing Huan came along. Amidst the blurred tears, Zhu Heng seemed to see Qing Huan sitting beside the bed. , holding a comb, smiling wildly: Sister, let me comb your hair for you.

Zhu Heng's voice was very soft, but he was determined to live towards death: "Doctor You, I must live, please help me."
