Flame red

Mu Yu slept very deeply, because the inner alchemy was almost separated at that time, and then forced back, making his body even weaker.After being sent home by Master Lu, he fell asleep in his room and fell unconscious.Her mother stayed by the bed for a long time, watching Mu Yulu develop a high fever one after another, she was very anxious, the family doctor came and gave her two bottles of normal saline to reduce the fever, and then gradually stabilized.

Tossing and tossing like this over and over again, it is still the New Year's Eve when every family is celebrating, Mu Yu's father is so angry that he throws all the wine brought back from abroad into the yard, making the moon fall Enjoy with the sound of firecrackers sounding from everywhere.

He scolded Mu Yu's mother, saying that he shouldn't have listened to the snake lady back then, and used some kind of monster inner alchemy to save his life.There's so much trouble going on these days.

But Mu Yu's mother retorted that if she didn't use it at that time, would she have just watched her die?

Having said that, Mu Yu's father could only hold back his complaints.Kicking off the slippers beside him, he walked downstairs alone.

Master Lu heard the quarrel from above, and he finished sighing with Mu Xiangzhi, now Mu Yu will probably be grounded.

Mu Xiangzhi hummed. "Then are you planning to take out the inner alchemy now?"

"I don't know, two conditions are required for taking out the inner alchemy, one is that the defense is weakened, and the other is that Mu Yu must be awake."

"Oh, so."

This Mu Yu's family was still immersed in her parents' anger, and Jian Xiangli also took Yan Hong to the hospital for an examination, and simply did emergency treatment, but refused the doctor's strong request for hospitalization on the grounds that he had something to do.

They found a food stall to eat something, Yan Hong had internal injuries from being beaten by the snake woman, so she could only drink some porridge.

Jian Xiangli looked at her and sighed, "I'm sorry."

"Why do you say I'm sorry?" Yan Hong was stunned.

"If I had told you from the beginning that the snake demon was sealed by our family, maybe the trouble would not have been so serious." Jian Xiangli explained.

"Oh, it's okay. Anyway, now the Lu family has found a way."

Hearing what she said, Jian Xiangli just smiled, and slowly stirred the fried rice noodles in the bowl with chopsticks. "If I remember correctly, the Lu family seems to be a family of exorcists that was only recognized in the last century. Grandpa Master came to ask us for advice."

"That's it." Yan Hong nodded casually, then fell silent for two seconds, her eyes lit up. "You mean you know a safer way?"

"Do you know how to keep a person in a sane but delirious state?"

"Eh?"

"Do you know how to make a person drunk?"

Jian Xiangli spoke casually, but after Yan Hong thought about his words seriously, the corner of his mouth twitched. "You mean." She gestured with her finger, and the exorcist nodded.

"Would you like to try it?" he asked sincerely.

"Try a ghost!"

Mu Yu said, I want to live.So I won't die.

When she said this, she looked at Yanhong with heavy eyes, her eyes were calm and far away as if they met for the first time.However, it is softer than that.

So there was a place in Yanhong's heart, where heat oozes out little by little, until it is almost painful.

That's not someone's body temperature.It was hot emotions, which gathered into a form from all directions at some point, and she held it in the palm of her hand, and found that she seemed to be being pulled forward by this emotion, and she was no longer staying in the same place.

Yanhong knew that she had changed, but she felt unwilling, because the time between realizing this change and describing her emotions in words to that person was too long.

Later, Jian Xiangli parked the car at the back of the Mu family compound, and a half-closed window could be seen through the gaps between the branches of the cherry tree.He pointed to the window, and said to Yan Hong: "Mu Yu's room."

"Ah."

Yan Hong jumped off the seat of the motor vehicle, her thin body was wrapped in a black jumper, she looked weaker than girls of the same age.Jian Xiangli looked at her back steadily for a few times, and smiled in his heart.It's a pity that she is not a weak little girl, but something that even respected monsters give way.

Ordinary people call it a monster, but Yan Hong is not a monster.

"Move quickly. Otherwise, she will still be in pain." Jian Xiangli said while playing with his mobile phone.

Yan Hong nodded, then walked towards the golden railing in the yard, walked a few steps, looked back at him, and said, "Thank you."

The other party just waved his hand, signaling to go back quickly.

When climbing over the railing of the yard, Yanhong remembered that at some point, Yang Bai had discussed the plot with Yu Le with the script of the drama club. Yanhong went over to take a look and found that it was a love story about a thief and a rich lady. Only in the middle of the night, with the help of the branches outside the window, I can come to the eldest lady's room for a date.At that time, Yu Le complained about this script many times, but Yanhong didn't remember exactly what she complained about. The only thing she could remember was that the sunlight outside the window fell on Yang Bai's shoulders, and the color was clean.

She didn't know why she thought of such a thing, she blinked, and when she climbed up the cherry tree, she forgot about it again.

There seemed to be no one else in Mu Yu's room, so Yan Hong moved carefully along the branches to the window, observed carefully for a few minutes, and confirmed that there was no one else present except Mu Yu who was lying on the bed, and then moved to the window. The half-closed window was pushed open and slid into the bedroom.

The room was filled with the smell of some kind of perfume, not the smell that Yanhong had often smelled on Mu Yu.There are two infusion bottles hanging by the bed, and the needles have been removed.

Mu Yu was lying on the bed, breathing smoothly, but frowning tightly.

Yan Hong moved her steps little by little and walked up to her.

Mu Yu is a very beautiful person, no matter when and from what angle, he is impeccable.The innate coolness attracts countless people.

If you want to talk about the advantages, you can boast a lot just about the appearance.

Yanhong felt that, apart from being unforgiving before, Mu Yu could be called perfect to a certain extent both internally and externally.But maybe for her, a warm and considerate type would be more attractive than a woman with such a cold temperament.

Just think about it, if there is really a warm and caring person by Yanhong's side, she might not necessarily like it.

She didn't dislike Mu Yu so far, she felt that she was incredible.

Yan Hong sighed, but Mu Yu who was on the bed slowly opened his eyes following her sigh, which was so small that the air never floated.

They looked at each other, and found the peace in their hearts from each other's eyes.

"...So you are here." Mu Yu said softly.

Yanhong smiled, walked over, and when she stretched out her hand, Mu Yu dodged subconsciously, but in the end, because there was already a soft and comfortable bed behind her and there was no place to hide, she asked Yanhong to cover her mouth.

The girl's palm had the unique coolness of winter, Mu Yu frowned slightly, and felt that Yanhong stuffed something into her mouth, it didn't taste much, she swallowed it without paying attention when she inhaled.

"Mu Yu." Yan Hong let go of her hand, put it next to her ear, and watched Mu Yu condescendingly. "I think you're going to be a really good actor, good enough to make everyone forget about your looks and focus on the character you're conveying."

"..." Not knowing the meaning of her words, Mu Yu looked at Yan Hong in a daze, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to hold the other's wrist.Then he was surprised that his palm was incredibly hot.

Yan Hong said: "You are a very good person. You are so good that you can live a wonderful life even if no one is around you."

"Yan Hong, you..." Mu Yu frowned, sensing that there was something else in her words, he sat up, but when he sat down, he suddenly felt dizzy in his head, his whole body was hot and uncomfortable, and his limbs were limp without any strength .

She should have fallen down again, but Yan Hong reached out to wrap her arms around Mu Yu's waist.

And this hug immediately made Mu Yu aware of his strangeness.He looked at the girl with a quiet face in shock.

The thin pajamas clearly allowed the coolness from Yanhong's fingertips to pass to Mu Yu's back without any hindrance, but on the contrary, the heat emitted by her skin was more uncomfortable than fever.

Yan Hong hugged her lightly, hugging her in his arms, Mu Yu immediately wanted to push her away, but as soon as his hands were placed on the child's shoulders, the other party had already leaned over, and fell down on the soft bed with her, The warm bed that has been soaked by Mu Yu's body temperature.

"Yanhong." Mu Yu forced his voice to be as serious and indifferent as before. "how old are you?"

"16 is old."

"Yes, you're only 16, you can't do that."

"Then it's up to me, isn't it okay?" Yan Hong suddenly raised her head, the seriousness in her eyes was so clear and transparent, Mu Yu followed her gaze and heard her heartbeat start to speed up with a thud.

She opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything.

So Yanhong's lips curled into a soft smile. "I'm sorry." She apologized so softly, but she didn't leave, instead she leaned forward, her soft and cool lips blocked what Mu Yu wanted to say but couldn't say.

——When the time comes.

Mu Yu was thinking about Yanhong's question in a daze. The child was delicate and clean, with the tips of his hair falling on his collarbone, like soft, crow's feathers.

She doesn't dislike Yanhong, and even said that compared to many people, she may not necessarily like Yanhong.Because this child can give Mu Yu the not-so-clear sense of security that he needs.There is a similar indifference in her temperament, but compared to Mu Yu's indifferent attitude, Yan Hong's indifference is still like a small group of unobtrusive flames, which will bump into her heart bouncingly, and then It gets warmer little by little.

Mu Yu would always want to hold her in his arms together with this ball of flames, and would often put it into action.

Yanhong opened her innocent eyes, her face full of peace.

—she wants to live.

Mu Yu recalled that time, when he looked down at the embarrassed Yan Hong in the utility room, and put his coat on the other's shoulders, the strong desire that flickered in his heart.

She hadn't had time to tell that child before - she wanted to live because Yan Hong would be with her.

That's right, Mu Yu wants to live with Yan Hong.

"Flame red."

She felt that when the fiery red fingertips were walking on her back, every inch of coolness carried a belated heat, so hot that her consciousness could not find words to support in the air.

Mu Yu could only call Yan Hong's name in a low voice in vain.Even the sound was too far away to be heard clearly.

Then, from somewhere in the spine, there was an itching-like tearing sensation, which was not painful.It rushed into the depths of my mind like an electric current, shaking my consciousness and memory blank.

Mu Yu subconsciously hugged Yan Hong's shoulders tightly, her waist was tensed for a long time, the tearing sensation receded a little bit like a tide, and together with the tearing feeling receded, there was also the scorching heat that made her consciousness faint in the air and trance.

She found that Yanhong was very close to her, not simply forehead to forehead, looking at each other, but from now on, they seemed to see each other's heart clearly in this moment of silence.

Yan Hong asked: "Does it hurt?"

Mu Yu blinked, a little puzzled. "What?"

Her doubts seemed to have given Yanhong an answer, the child raised the corners of her mouth and smiled triumphantly.But this smile has half the pride of successful hunting, which makes Mu Yu feel hot on his face.

"If you don't explain clearly why you gave me that food." Mu Yu took a deep breath, lowered his voice and said seriously to Yan Hong.But even though she was so serious, she didn't let go of her hands around the other's shoulders. "—I can't spare you."

"I'm sorry." Yan Hong restrained her smile slightly, but the corners of her mouth were still slightly raised. "But I hope this is the last and first time you are treated like this before putting on your wedding dress."

"...Even after that, I wouldn't be drugged so easily."

"En." Yan Hong nodded, and then the two of them were silent for a few seconds, then she stepped back slightly, no longer touching Mu Yu's forehead. "Your fever is gone."

"Really?" Mu Yu also let go of his hand, and briefly tested the temperature. As expected, he no longer had a fever, and his consciousness was clearer than before.

Yan Hong sat down in front of her seriously, and pointed to herself. "Mu Yu, what do you think of me?"

Her question stunned Mu Yu, and she wanted to nod subconsciously, but reason still held back her impulse at the critical moment.

"You're still young." Mu Yu replied lightly.

"That's right, I'm only freshman in high school." Yan Hong nodded in agreement, then stood up.

Later, Yan Hong was really kicked out of the room by Mu Yu, through the window.

She originally wanted to leave gracefully like a protagonist in a story, but she didn't expect to jump off the cherry blossom tree in embarrassment under the attack power of various pillows and books.When they turned out of the yard, they heard Mu Yu forcefully shut the window tightly.

Jian Xiangli, who was waiting on the side of the street, silently gave Yanhong a look of caring for him.

"Got it?" he asked.

"Um, this?"

Yanhong stretched out her hand in her pocket, spread her five fingers, a golden ball the size of a glass bead shone with a dim luster in her palm.

Jian Xiangli nodded, and she stuffed the small ball into her mouth and swallowed it.
