chills

He sighed and leaned against the courtyard wall, intending to talk to Lu Huaiyuan after he stopped.Don't be too anxious in everything, and eager for success will only hurt yourself in the end.

Lu Huaiyuan didn't realize it, and was still making sword moves over and over without stopping, so Shen Huaiyu had no choice but to poke outside and wait for him.

"Is it wrong for me to do this?" Shen Huaiyu thought.

He was the one who alienated Lu Huaiyuan, and it was he who was waiting at the door of Lu Huaiyuan's house to care about him.Of course he understood what Lu Huaiyuan was thinking, but being so far and near was just as hurtful.

He hesitated and was full of entanglements.Lu Huaiyuan is of course very important to him... very very important, no matter what, the last thing he wants is for Lu Huaiyuan to feel uncomfortable.

"Shen Huaiyu, Shen Huaiyu," he murmured silently in his heart, "...let's do some personnel work."

He really doesn't know how to deal with Lu Huaiyuan now.Lu Huaiyuan's statement was very obvious, that is, no matter what, he would go all the way to the end, but Shen Huaiyu didn't want him to do this.This road is not easy to walk, it is full of thorns, and if you are not careful, you will be scratched all over your body. He hopes that Lu Huaiyuan just lost his mind for a while, and when he understands, he will turn around and go back.

But what if Lu Huaiyuan was serious?What if, in Lu Huaiyuan's view, after walking through this thorny road, Shen Huaiyu is waiting at the other end?

He fled shamefully, didn't he just leave his junior brother there alone?

He suddenly felt in a dilemma, his nails were firmly pinched into his palm, and he inadvertently made a few bloodstains.

Before he knew it, the sun was setting and the surroundings were getting darker. Shen Huaiyu didn't notice that he had stood there for so long. He didn't realize it was so late until he passed by a doorman carrying a lantern who was going to be on duty at night.

Lu Huaiyuan finally stopped and put his sword back into its sheath.He exhaled a breath of white steam, which was especially conspicuous in this dim situation.

Shen Huaiyu's heart skipped a beat.

Lu Huaiyuan sensitively sensed that there were people nearby, so he looked outside the courtyard gate.He has always been keen on the five senses, that is to say, he was too focused to ignore his surroundings when he was practicing swords in the Zongmen. When he stopped, all the changes around him were very obvious.

Shen Huaiyu saw that he couldn't stay outside the door any longer, so he walked over slowly.

Lu Huaiyuan smiled at him: "Brother, you are here."

Shen Huaiyu nodded: "En."

Holding the saber in his hand, Lu Huaiyuan looked at the darkening sky: "What's the matter?"

"You..." Shen Huaiyu pondered over the words and adjusted the point of entry, "Have you not named the sword yet?"

Lu Huaiyuan didn't expect him to ask this, so he obviously paused.

"I haven't figured it out yet," Lu Huaiyuan said, his eyebrows rarely relaxed. "Let's talk about it in a few days. Anyway, it doesn't matter if you have a name or not. When you suddenly think of a good one, add it to it."

Shen Huaiyu nodded again: "Okay... Take it easy when you practice your sword, it will consume too much, so don't tire yourself out."

Lu Huaiyuan smiled: "'Practice like this'? Brother, how do you know how I practice? Have you been watching?"

Shen Huaiyu was right, and felt a little guilty for a while: "I didn't look at it for too long. I didn't see you had dinner tonight, so I just came over to take a look. Clean yourself up first, and I'll go to the kitchen to get you something to eat."

Lu Huaiyuan smiled and saw his senior brother leave in a panic, thinking it was very cute.

Shen Huaiyu didn't care too much about the time, usually at this time they had eaten their meals long ago, they went to the kitchen and found that the fire had been turned off, a few disciples were about to go back after washing the dishes, when Shen Huaiyu came over.

"Uncle Huaiyu." Those disciples saw Shen Huaiyu and saluted him, and Shen Huaiyu nodded in response.

"Uncle, the kitchen is turned off," a disciple hesitated and said to him, "What do you want to eat, let me come?"

"No need," Shen Huaiyu said, "Go back and rest, I can do it myself."

Several disciples left after hearing the words, Shen Huaiyu opened the door and walked into the kitchen, and found that it was really late, even the residual heat from the stove had dissipated, making people feel a little cold.

He rolled up his sleeves, and when he knelt down to start a fire, he suddenly felt like laughing, so he chuckled lightly.

He also cooked like this when he was a child. At that time, he was short, and he was still at the age of stepping on a small bench to reach the stove.That woman didn't show any pity for those children, and she was never lenient when she ordered them to do this or that.Shen Huaiyu originally thought that this memory would be like an ugly scar that would accompany him for the rest of his life, but now that he thought about it carefully, he couldn't even remember the woman's name or what she looked like.

After going to Qingyun Mountain, he had never suffered a bit of hardship.

He washed his hands quickly, and ordered some leftover noodles. After thinking about it, he felt that the plain noodles were too shabby, so he added a poached egg and a few green vegetable leaves.

There was some leftover meat stew before, and Shen Huaiyu also heated it up and covered it on the noodles.

Lu Huaiyuan sweated a lot from practicing swords earlier, and his body was soaked. Taking advantage of Shen Huaiyu's time to cook noodles, he took a bath with well water despite the cold, and then waited in the room in his middle clothes.

When Shen Huaiyu came in, he saw Lu Huaiyuan sitting on the edge of the bed in his middle coat, and paused in his footsteps, almost thinking that he was going to sleep.

Lu Huaiyuan smiled: "Brother, come in."

Shen Huaiyu held the noodle bowl in one hand, and pushed the door open a small crack with the other, and quickly closed the door after she came in.

He put the noodle bowl on the table: "Come here and eat... You really don't think it's cold. What kind of weather is it now? Do you think your room is really warm?"

Lu Huaiyuan's hair was not completely dry, and the tips of his hair were still dripping: "It's okay, I'll sleep in a while, this quilt is quite thick, it's not cold at night."

Shen Huaiyu glanced at him: "I think you rely on firepower to be strong."

He moved the table a little and pushed it to Lu Huaiyuan's bedside: "Put on the quilt and eat here, don't get out of bed."

Lu Huaiyuan stared at Shen Huaiyu for a while, said nothing, put on the quilt happily, and swayed his feet like a child.He looked at the bowl of noodles, and felt that the poached egg stove was not in line with Qing Yunzong's style: "Senior brother, did you make this?"

Shen Huaiyu also sat on the edge of his bed, and saw Lu Huaiyuan's two legs hanging under the bed, as well as his bare feet: "Put your feet up."

Lu Huaiyuan readily agreed, sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed, wrapped in a quilt, and began to eat his bowl of noodles.

Shen Huaiyu sat silently beside him, and Lu Huaiyuan didn't feel uncomfortable when someone watched him eat.Probably because he was really hungry, he ate up the bowl of noodles in a short while, even the noodle soup.

"Go to bed early." Seeing that he had finished eating, Shen Huaiyu planned to take his bowl away, and went back by the way.

"Brother," Lu Huaiyuan said softly, "don't you have something to tell me?"
