I bent the devil

Wang Er took Xiao Zhu, who seemed a little at a loss because of his quarrel with Song Qingyi, out the door. The door was slammed, but Song Qingyi still lowered his head as if he hadn't heard it at all.

Gu Jiu stood aside, looking at Song Qingyi who was stubborn and lowered his head, as if he was determined not to look at himself.

His side face is fair because of the crow-feather black hair. Looking at it from Gu Jiu's angle, one can clearly see his beautiful profile. His long and straight eyelashes are slightly drooping, giving him a heavy feeling , it seemed that something was pressed between his eyelashes, covering the look in his eyes.

The silence at this moment and the laughter passing by outside the door are like a contrast between two worlds.Gu Jiu looked at Song Qingyi who seemed to be planning to remain silent in his own world, feeling aggrieved and distressed.

Slowly approaching, squatting down in front of him, Gu Jiu slightly raised his head to look at Song Qingyi, but after staring at him for a few breaths, Song Qingyi turned his head slightly.

"……do not look at me."

"Tsing Yi." Gu Jiu's childhood experiences prevented him from growing into the kind of person who can bring sunshine and comfort to others. Just young people who are confused and hesitant.

His previous protection of Tsing Yi was more because he wanted to complete the task and leave this place that didn't belong to him as soon as possible.But people's hearts are fleshy, and Tsing Yi is well-behaved, obedient, and sensible. Although he hardly speaks, he is extremely smart.Is a silent good boy.

Gu Jiu, who bought the sword for Tsing Yi, had some intentions, but now Gu Jiu, who is squatting in front of Song Qingyi, only wants to comfort him and not let him go on like this.

He should be an angry horse.He should be cheerful and unrestrained.

It's not because of the low self-esteem hidden in my heart, I have become a shrinking self, always only daring to wear a mask, pretending that I am very fulfilled and very quiet.

He didn't want Song Qingyi to become that kind of person.

"Tsing Yi." He paused for a moment, and did not stop because of Song Qingyi's words just now.

What Song Qingyi didn't want himself to see was the fragility and inferiority that he couldn't completely cover up now.However, this is the real Song Qingyi, the one that Gu Jiu loves.It's not the usual cold smile that always puts on a confident and strategizing posture.

"Let's go to see the lantern..." Gu Jiu said, ignoring Song Qingyi's hands on his knees, and when he heard his words, he slightly curled up and shook hands.

"By the way..." Gu Jiu used a self-deprecating tone, "Go and taste the banquet of the rich family that Wang Er mentioned."

Song Qingyi still didn't look at him, but was obviously listening to Gu Jiu's continuation.

"The ancients said: If you want to achieve something, let the people do it; if you don't want to achieve something, follow your own way." Gu Jiu stopped his voice, laughed and shook his head. "Hey, I'm really not suitable for this way of speaking." He looked up again to Song Qingyi who finally turned to look at him because of his snort just now.

"Tsing Yi, why did you choose the sword?"

Song Qingyi was slightly startled, but did not speak, still pursing her thin lips.

"Look, whether it's a stick, a gun, etc., your weapon will be easier to find than a sword." Gu Jiu looked up at the young man who looked down at him.The light covered his face like a layer of glaze.

"Perhaps you don't even know why you chose to learn swords, but you chose this weapon subconsciously."

"If you didn't know it before, I can tell you now that you subconsciously choose the weapon 'sword' because you have the right way in your heart."

Song Qingyi's black eyes were heavy, looking down at Gu Jiu who was looking up at him, the long and thick eyelashes covered the expression in his eyes, but his heart became calm from the impetuousness just now.

Not because of Gu Jiu's words, but because of the attitude of the person in front of him at this moment.

Do you have the right way in your heart?

No.

King of a hundred soldiers?Nor is it.

He simply... chose the sword as a weapon.

All the weapons are just for self-protection and repelling the enemy, that's all, but since the person in front of him thinks that he chose 'sword' because of a reason.

...that's it.

Do you have the right way in your heart?

If there is truth in his heart...

"Hmm." A low voice interrupted Gu Jiu who was almost at a loss for words in front of him. Song Qingyi looked down at him, looking at this face that seemed to be covered with a layer of light, as young as before, and delicate and gentle. .Speak softly.

"Let's go see the lanterns."

If there is truth in his heart.

Gu Jiu is his way.
