"But you don't want it, okay? You've been tossing all the way, and you just hope you can resign if you're lame?"

Miss He's voice was cool, but anyone could hear her dissatisfaction, or anger.

Wei Lai knew from the beginning that she couldn't hide it from He Zhi, and she never thought of hiding it from He Zhi, so at this moment, she could only lower her head and say cowardly: "I'm sorry."

When He Zhi heard these three words, she almost laughed angrily—this person is so unselfish that he wants to lose his own leg just to resign. Does she still feel sorry for others? !

But think about it, if this leg is really broken, she only feels sorry for others, how sad it is?

Wei Lai waited for a long while but still didn't get Miss He's reply. She was a little confused, and finally looked up secretly, but saw He Zhi raised her hand...

Subconsciously shrank his neck and closed his eyes, but the slap that Wei Lai expected to fall on his body did not fall. Instead, he felt a hand brushing against his cheek, and then a strand of hair that had blocked his face was shattered. Pull it behind the ear.

Wei Lai, who closed his eyes and shrunk his neck, froze for a moment, then carefully opened his eyes and looked at He Zhi, only to see that there was no anger on Miss He's face, but a face of... pity?

Yes, sorry, this kind of expression that Wei Lai had never seen on other people's faces appeared on He Zhi's face.She didn't know why Miss He showed such a look, but she just felt that being looked at by her like this made her heart gradually sour.He opened his mouth a few times, but didn't say a word.

He Zhi looked at Wei Lai's profile, and felt that Wei Lai was an unusual woman for the first time.She has long hair loose, and her face is slightly sideways. Her former high-spiritedness has been completely restrained, and her heroic eyebrows and eyes have been softened. Her appearance is not very beautiful, but she will never make people mistakenly think that the person in front of her is a man...

This is a woman, but she has become a man, and she will never be able to live back to herself for the rest of her life.

He Zhi silently looked at Wei Lai's uncovered shoulder, the scabbed but still hideous wound made her feel so deeply for the first time - this person in front of her was different from her, her life was not easy .

The little anger in her heart dissipated unconsciously, He Zhi raised her hand to help Wei Lai pull up the clothes again, during which time she accidentally caught a glimpse of what was inside the clothes.There is nothing charming, just vaguely seeing the scars all over the body makes people feel dizzy, and I don't know how this person survived with the scars all over his body, even his identity has never been revealed at all.

He Zhi thought that she was probably not qualified to question Wei Lai.

The room was silent for a while, and Wei Lai didn't know what Miss He was thinking, but felt that the atmosphere was not as depressing as before, so he said softly: "Jin Rui, don't be angry, I was just thinking about it for a while. Now, it won’t be like this again.”

Wei Lai was cautious, but He Zhi had already regained his former composure.She didn't answer anything, but walked around behind Wei Lai on her own, and lifted up the cloth scarf on Wei Lai's shoulders, covering Wei Lai's wet hair completely.

Miss He has to help her brush her hair, are you not angry?

Wei Lai blinked his eyes, a little unsure, so he wanted to go back and look at He Zhi.

He Zhi had never served anyone before, and her own hair was washed and wiped by maids, but her movements were gentle and delicate, so that she would not pull her hair when she wiped it leisurely.It's just that Wei Lai turned around suddenly, she couldn't stop for a while, and it was still involved in the end.

He Zhi hurriedly let go of Wei Lai's "hissing" sound, "What are you doing?"

No anger could be heard in He Zhi's voice, so Wei Lai quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "No, I am. I just want to see if you are still angry."

Naturally, he was still angry, but he couldn't vent his anger on her.He Zhi knew it in her heart, but she was also annoyed that she didn't love herself, so she threw the cloth towel into Wei Lai's hand: "Wipe it yourself, I'm going back home."

After He Zhi finished speaking, she really turned her head and left, leaving Wei Lai standing there holding the cloth towel, with an inexplicable expression on his face.

※※※

After Miss He left, she didn't come to the door for two days.

Wei Lai rested at home for two days, and her complexion recovered well, but she waited and waited anxiously, but she never heard from He Zhi, and finally ran away on the third morning on crutches Shangshufu.

Early in the morning, Master Shang Shu was still in the Yamen and could not come back. Mrs. He came out to meet her. Seeing her limping on crutches, she sighed for a long time. After all, she didn't say anything and let her People took Wei Lai to Huayu Pavilion.

Reasonable and unexpected, the members of the He family did not interfere at all, even the maids of Huayu Pavilion quietly led her way, and never made things difficult for her. Wei Lai's journey can be said to be Arrived at Huayu Pavilion unimpeded.But when she arrived in Huayu Pavilion, she still waited for a long time, until noon, and finally saw Miss He coming late.

Wei Lai got up to meet them, quietly observed the person, seeing that He Zhi's complexion was much better than two days ago, he felt relieved a lot.After going up to meet him, he didn't know what to say for a while, and finally he could only shout: "Jin Rui."

He Zhi waved away all the maids in the small reception hall, and without saying anything, took a cloth bag from Xi Qiu and handed it to Wei Lai.

"What is this?" Wei Wei looked at the cloth bag in his hand, a little confused.She didn't open the cloth bag, but just touched it through the cloth, and she got the bottom line in her heart, but she was even more inexplicable: "Here, Jin Rui, why are you giving me shoes?"

He Zhi had already sat down on the chair beside him, and Wei Lai was only separated by a coffee table.Hearing this, she took the initiative to reach out and opened the cloth bag, revealing the newly made shoes inside. After taking a deep look at Wei Lai, she said, "Look carefully."

Wei Lai didn't know what she meant, but Miss He never seemed to do meaningless things, so she looked at the shoes carefully, measured them with her hands, and then said in a little surprise and surprise: "Jin Rui, are you How do you know the size of my feet? This shoe is made to fit just right."

"..." This is not the point at all, okay? !

He Zhi looked at Wei Lai with two points of helplessness and three points of pampering.She raised her hand to hold Wei Lai's hand, leading her to put her hand into the shoe, touched the shoe on her left foot, then touched the shoe on her right foot, and looked up at her deeply.

At first, Wei Lai's attention was still on He Zhi holding his hand, the soft touch made his heart soften.However, after she touched both shoes, her casual eyes suddenly focused.

Wei Lai picked up the two shoes and looked at them again. The appearance was no different from ordinary shoes, and they were a good pair together.However, she had just tried it on, and the soles of the two shoes were actually different—the sole of the right shoe was nearly twice as thick as the left shoe!

"This..." Wei Lai looked at He Zhi hesitantly, his eyes flickering slightly.

He Zhi didn't look at Wei Lai, her eyes fell on the pair of shoes, and she sighed quietly: "I talked to my father two days ago, and he doesn't approve of your resignation at this time."

In He Shangshu's view, it is not a wise choice to let Wei Lai resign.If you are afraid of such accidents and dangers happening again, you can transfer people to the garrison in the outskirts of Beijing, or find a way to get a job in the imperial army. There is not much risk in staying in Beijing.It's not difficult for her to have military merits and have not been rewarded yet, so why give up her future?

He Zhi had no way to refute, let alone tell the truth to his father. After much deliberation, he could only make such a pair of shoes.

Wei Lai was actually not stupid, as she touched the special pair of shoes, she already understood He Zhi's meaning in her heart - she couldn't see that she was really crippled to resign, so she helped herself to pretend to be crippled.
