Chapter 32 Next Door

The window was wide open, Mu Xi had already thrown back the fan, she was not in the house, probably staying in her own room.Xin Yueming held the fan and sighed, let Jiang Shuihan and Jiang Qianqian sit first, then leaned out of the window and went directly into Mu Xi's room.Xiao Yuqing also didn't expect that Xin Yueming would go to coax the sulking little princess in person, so she had to sit aside to pretend to be airy facing Jiang Qianqian and Jiang Shuihan.

Jiang Qianqian watched Xin Yueming's back disappear by the window unexpectedly, then looked at Jiang Shuihan who was sitting upright, and opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't speak because Xiao Yuqing was sitting at the side.Xiao Yuqing looked down at the fan in his hand, but from the corner of his eye, he had already scanned the faces of Jiang Shuihan and Jiang Qianqian, thinking of his brothers and sisters, he felt a little bitter in his heart, Xin Yueming, Xin Yueming, you are indeed much happier than me.

Xin Yueming didn't think as much as Xiao Yuqing, he was just worried about Mu Xi, and jumped into the room, Mu Xi was sitting at the table staring at the candle in a daze, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

When Mu Xi saw him coming in, he was obviously taken aback, and asked, "Aren't you going to talk with your younger brother and younger sister?"

Xin Yueming smiled and said, "What's wrong with you? Are you in a bad mood?"

"No." Mu Xi turned his head and said in a low voice, "After all, it's been a long time since you met again, so it's not appropriate for me to stay there."

"There's no privacy, Xiao Yuqing is here, what are you avoiding?"

"Come here." Xin Yueming stretched out his hand to pull Muxi, thinking she was shy, and comforted her, "Qianqian and Xiaohan are easy-going people, what are you worried about?"

"I'm not."

Mu Xi's voice was hidden in the night wind, and it disappeared as soon as it blew.She looked down at Xin Yueming holding her hand, then raised her eyes to look at Xin Yueming's happy back, and swallowed the rest of the words.She just didn't want to face this kind of environment. This kind of reunion after a long absence made her unbearable.

"Qianqian, her name is Mu Xi, she was the one who saved me from the bottom of the valley."

Jiang Qianqian was frightened when she heard Xin Yueming's words, for fear that he would suddenly say something like, I like her very much.Fortunately, Xin Yueming didn't say anything more after the introduction, and instead brought the topic to them.

"I'm sorry, I haven't been back in the past few years, and I made you worry."

"It's okay." Jiang Qianqian shook her head, "As long as you are okay, little brother."

Just as Jiang Shuihan was about to speak, the sharp-eyed Xiao Yuqing coughed a few times, looked at Jiang Shuihan and said, "By the way, I have to apologize to Mr. Jiang for what happened today."

Jiang Shuihan nodded, but did not speak after all.Jiang Qianqian had always disliked Xiao Yuqing, but now she was even more displeased, so she snorted and turned her eyes away not wanting to look at him.

Xiao Yuqing smiled slightly, pretending she didn't see it, and said to Xin Yue, "In that case, let's make an appointment next time."

Xin Yueming thought that it would be difficult to talk about the Hehuan Sect and Senluo Wanxiang in front of Jiang Shuihan and Jiang Qianqian, so she nodded and said, "Okay, we will use letters to communicate during this time."

"Retire."

Xiao Yuqing gestured to Jiang Shuihan and Jiang Qianqian, nodded slightly in Mu Xi's direction after getting up, then turned and left.

"Little brother, why are you getting together with that guy?" Jiang Qianqian leaned over and frowned, "He's not easy to get along with."

"There is something that needs help from their Xiao family." Xin Yueming smiled, "Don't worry, once the matter is over, I will stay away from him."

"Then are you coming back?"

Under the flickering candlelight, Jiang Shuihan suddenly raised his eyes to look at Xin Yueming, his calm eyes showed some expectation, which caught Xin Yueming by surprise.From the moment he entered the door, he didn't really shift his gaze to Jiang Shuihan. He didn't even know why he didn't have the confidence to look at Jiang Shuihan.

"Me." Xin Yueming smiled casually, just as he was about to touch the fan, he remembered for the second time that it was already rotten and out of shape, and he secretly thought that he must get someone to repair it, "I will come back naturally when the matter is over. "

Under the bleak candlelight, half of Xin Yueming's mask shone with cold light, Jiang Qianqian was in a trance for a while, and suddenly realized that the distance between herself and the little brother had become very far.Before she could figure it out, Jiang Shuihan's eyes suddenly dimmed a lot, and the palms hanging on her knees were slowly clenched, veins popping out.

After a long while, Jiang Shuihan's voice could not hear any joy, anger, sorrow or joy, "Why don't you take off the mask?"

Xin Yueming was taken aback, then smiled and took off the mask, and said helplessly, "I can't help it, I'm used to wearing it, and sometimes it's easy to forget that it's still on my face."

Seeing him take off the mask casually, Jiang Shuihan finally looked better.

"Little brother."

"En?" Xin Yueming tilted his head to look at the confused Jiang Qianqian, couldn't help touching her head and asked, "What's wrong?"

The tone was gentle and familiar, which was fine.Jiang Qianqian lowered her head to hide the disappointment in her eyes, but luckily, he was still the little senior brother back then.

"Little brother."

Jiang Qianqian raised her head and called out again, making Xin Yueming nod her head in doubt, "Well, I'm here."

"Little Senior Brother!"

"En." Xin Yueming didn't find her annoying, and nodded seriously, "I'm here."

"Little brother."

"I'm here."

Jiang Qianqian resisted the soreness in her eyes, looked up at Xin Yueming and said, "Little brother, today is such a good day, let's celebrate with a drink!"

Xin Yueming froze for a moment, then subconsciously looked at Jiang Shuihan, with doubt and curiosity in his eyes.In the past, Jiang Shuihan hated him gambling the most, and secondly hated him drinking. I don't know what Jiang Shuihan thinks now.Seeing Xin Yueming looking over, Jiang Shuihan was startled, as if he had pondered for a while, he nodded towards Xin Yueming.

Xin Yueming looked at Mu Xi, who had been acting like a wooden figure beside him, and was about to ask, when Mu Xi stood up and walked downstairs.It seems that this person directly announced her choice with actions. Xin Yueming pursed her lips and looked at the excited Jiang Qianqian, and Jiang Shuihan whose face was calm and could not see any fluctuations at all, and sighed secretly in her heart.

Forget it, let's have a good drink with them today.

I really can't tell, Jiang Qianqian's drinking capacity must not be underestimated.Xin Yueming saw her sitting there drinking a few pots, her face didn't change at all, and her eyes didn't lose sight, she just praised her from the bottom of her heart.Unexpectedly, just as this thought flashed through his mind, Jiang Qianqian slammed his head on the wine table with a bang, muttering something.

Fortunately, Mu Xi responded in a timely manner. Although she drank a few cups and blushed twice on her face, she did not completely lose consciousness. She reached out to stop Jiang Qianqian's body, avoiding the tragedy that Jiang Qianqian almost knocked against the corner of the table.Xin Yueming sighed, and turned to look at Jiang Shuihan, who had been silent all this time. It didn't matter, and Xin Yueming was taken aback.

He originally thought that Jiang Shuihan was at least better at drinking than Jiang Qianqian, and it should be enough to count on him to drink a jug of wine.After toasting Jiang Shuihan for a few glasses of wine, he ignored it and focused on Jiang Qianqian, who was drinking for the first time.Unexpectedly, Jiang Shuihan fell unconscious on the table after only drinking a few cups.

"Little brother? Little brother?"

Xin Yueming reached out and patted Jiang Shuihan's face, but found that it had no effect at all. Jiang Shuihan was in a deep sleep, and he might not be woken up by an earthquake.

Mu Xi has seen Wuweizong people drink, but most of them have a lot of alcohol, but he has never seen such a poor person, so he couldn't help but put his arms around Jiang Qianqian's waist and asked Xin Yueming, "What should I do?"

Xin Yueming pushed the table and stood up, simply did a few stretching exercises, picked up the limp Jiang Shuihan under Mu Xi's suspicious gaze, and said helplessly, "What else can I do? Of course, send them back to their respective rooms." .”

"Do you know which room they asked for?"

Xin Yueming paused and said, "Anyway, Xiao Er should know."

"But I just asked Xiaoer after I ordered a drink. The two of them only need a room, which is next door to yours."

Mu Xi's cold voice was like pouring a basin of cold water on Xin Yueming's head, making him wake up instantly.Jiang Shuihan and Jiang Qianqian were clearly following him, but at this time they were all drunk and unconscious, and they were defenseless against him.

Xin Yueming looked down at Jiang Shuihan, who was unconscious with his eyes tightly closed, and a feeling of weakness rushed up his limbs and bones, making him unable to straighten up for a while.He was very happy when he heard Jiang Qianqian said that he wanted to drink, but this happiness was only because he finally had a chance and a reason to escape.

Jiang Shuihan's peaceful sleeping face was leaning against his chest, and his hair, which was always meticulous, was slightly disheveled. He didn't know what he dreamed of, and he frowned slightly, reached out and grabbed Xin Yueming's collar, and held it tightly.The touch in his hand seemed to convince him of certain facts, and the lines between his brows loosened, as if nothing had happened.

They are all intentional.

Deliberately give him a chance to escape, deliberately give him a chance to choose.

"How is it?" Mu Xi's flat voice sounded, "Are you still going?"

Xin Yueming took a deep breath, helped Jiang Shuihan up, smiled bitterly, and said, "Can I still leave?"

Mu Xi wasn't surprised by his reaction, and said lightly, "Then I'll sleep in the extra room tonight, you and Jiang Shuihan can squeeze in a room by yourself."

"Oh." Xin Yueming knew that she didn't like to sleep on the same bed with others, so it wasn't surprising.Seeing her carrying Jiang Qianqian on her back and walking upstairs, she couldn't help asking, "How about I help you?"

"No need." Mu Xi looked back at Xin Yueming and said, "You should settle Jiang Shuihan first."

Xin Yueming followed her line of sight and looked down at Jiang Shuihan who was holding on to his skirt tightly, and the breath he just mentioned almost collapsed.Jiang Shuihan was like an octopus, clinging to his body so tightly that he couldn't even move a step.

"Xiao Han." Xin Yueming's voice sounded soft as if coaxing a child, "Loosen your hands, and I'll take you to rest indoors."

"Not loose." Jiang Shuihan buried his head in Xin Yueming's chest, his voice was a bit hazy, and Xin Yueming couldn't hear clearly when he lowered his voice, "If you loosen it, you will leave."

Xin Yueming's heart softened, and he patted Jiang Shuihan's shoulder, and lied like coaxing a child, "No, let's go back to the room first, I can't walk if you are like this, if I stay in the lobby all night, I'm afraid I'll catch a cold."

Although Jiang Shuihan fell into the glacier when he was a child and saved his life, it also left behind the sequelae of not being able to withstand the cold. As long as the weather is slightly colder and he wears two less clothes, he will catch a cold and have a fever.After practicing martial arts, my bones are much better than before, but I still can't stand the cold.Xin Yueming was really worried that Jiang Shuihan would get sick if he stayed in this lobby for one night.

Fortunately, Jiang Shuihan was still the good boy when he was drunk, and he didn't act willfully. After hearing Xin Yueming's explanation, he automatically let go of his hands and feet, and let him help him upstairs to rest in the house.

Mu Xi didn't like to sleep in other people's bed, Xin Yueming would go back to sleep in her own room only when she sent Jiang Qianqian off, so she simply helped Jiang Shuihan into her own room.The windows were not closed before leaving, the cool night wind kept blowing into the house, and the candles had already been extinguished.Taking advantage of the darkness, Xin Yueming put Jiang Shuihan on the bed, went to the window and closed it, and then lit the candle again.

"Little brother?"

Jiang Shuihan's faint groaning sound came from the bed, and he kneaded his brows, it seemed that he was drunk and couldn't fall asleep.Xin Yueming found a plate from the cabinet, put it beside the pillow as a spittoon, and helped Jiang Shuihan to spit it out.

"Little brother?"

Just as Xin Yueming reached out to hold Jiang Shuihan's shoulder, Jiang Shuihan suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Xin Yueming motionless.Jiang Shuihan's eyes were astonishingly bright, Xin Yueming thought he had woken up for a moment.Unexpectedly, he pushed himself away and spat on the ground.

After a burst of vomiting, Xin Yueming looked at the tragic situation on the ground with her forehead supported, and a strange smell lingered at the tip of her nose, and she suddenly had the urge to run away.He quietly suppressed his thoughts, resigned himself to his fate, and went out to find the tools that Xiao Er wanted to clean, and cleaned the floor with Xiao Er.

Xin Yueming felt really sorry for asking Xiao Er to help clean up at such a late hour.The two stood at the door talking for a long time, then secretly handed Xiaoer some money, Xin Yueming closed the door and sat down at the table.

"Little brother."

On the bed, Jiang Shuihan frowned and rolled over and over again, but kept calling him, as if calling his name would make him feel better.Xin Yueming took a sip of tea, then dug out a new cup and poured half a cup, then walked towards the bed.He wanted Jiang Shuihan to moisturize his throat, but before he could say anything, Jiang Shuihan opened his eyes and stared at him blankly.

Xin Yueming was startled, thinking that he still wanted to vomit, and almost threw the tea in his hand out.But looking carefully, Jiang Shuihan's eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of veil, hazy.He stood up abruptly, but his limbs didn't listen to his brain, and he fell on Xin Yueming tremblingly, struggling for a long time but couldn't get up.

"Don't worry." Xin Yueming couldn't help persuading, "I'll help you."

Jiang Shuihan was lying on top of him, but after struggling for a long time, he finally turned over, and his whole body lay on his lap as if he had no bones.A pair of jade-like pupils gleamed with water, and the gaze became more attractive under the candlelight. The dark pupils seemed like an endless abyss, which made people fall into it involuntarily and could not extricate themselves.

Xin Yueming was half-sitting on the edge of the bed, unable to stabilize his figure, he carefully avoided Jiang Shuihan's sight, and helped Jiang Shuihan to lean against the head of the bed.His movements were cautious and careful, for fear that Jiang Shuihan would be dizzy for a while and hit somewhere.

"Little senior brother." The alcohol was strong, and his head became dizzy again. Jiang Shuihan lost his mind for a moment, and he used his hands slightly, and said in a low voice, "Little senior brother, is that you?"

Xin Yueming was caught by his collar with both hands, unable to break free, so she had to lower her head and say, "It's me."

He is a little depressed, who can take care of you so hard, but who is he?When Jiang Qianqian met Mu Xi, she might just be thrown on the bed casually.

Xin Yueming finally noticed the tea in his hand, gently brought it to Jiang Shuihan's lips, and coaxed in a low voice, "Xiaohan, drink some water, so that you can feel better."

Jiang Shuihan barely opened his eyes, tilted his head to sip his tea on Xin Yueming's hand, and his dry lips finally felt a little better.

Xin Yueming saw that he drank the tea in a few sips, so she patted Jiang Shuihan on the shoulder, "Let go, I'll pour you another glass of water for a few more sips."

He just wanted to make Jiang Shuihan feel better, but unexpectedly, he committed a big taboo.In the haze, Jiang Shuihan only heard the first two words and let go.

The person who has been thinking about him for nine years is right in front of him, how could Jiang Shuihan let go?If it was placed when he was usually sober, Jiang Shuihan might be worried about Xin Yueming's own thoughts, and maybe he really let go.But at this moment, his mind was a mess, and he could only think in a straight line.

Xin Yueming's words exploded in his head like a bomb. He didn't care about the pain in his head that was about to explode. With both hands, he pulled Xin Yueming to his chest, turned over and rode on Xin Yueming. All kinds of emotions are turbulent.

"I won't let it go."

Xin Yueming couldn't laugh or cry at once, Jiang Shuihan's weight was not light, and it was not when he was sober as usual, so he couldn't get up because of the weight, so he said quickly, "Little brother, stop playing and go to sleep."

"No." Jiang Shuihan shook his head stubbornly, "I close my eyes and you disappear." He didn't care about his uncomfortable head, just staring at Xin Yueming.

When Jiang Shuihan's deep eyes like glass slowly swept across Xin Yueming's face, Xin Yueming realized an important problem.

The two of them seemed too close.But just as this thought flashed through his mind, Xin Yueming froze in place.

The soft touch stayed on his lips, as if an electric current passed through, completely blowing up all the thoughts in his mind into fireworks, and nothing was left.
