Don't go back to hometown

Xie Cheng returned to Zhuzhuyuan with a sullen face, full of anger and nowhere to vent, as if a beast was struggling and roaring in his heart, the suffocated air welled up in his throat, and he couldn't hold back his fist and slammed it on the table——

The golden silk sandalwood table instantly cracked, and the wooden chips flew, falling apart together with the tea set on the table.

"What happened!"

Mother Xie, who rushed over after hearing the porter's report, heard the loud noise and looked at Xie Cheng in panic, "Isn't it just arguing with Xiao Yu, why did you get so angry?"

Xie Cheng was stunned for a moment, and hid his injured right hand behind his back.

But Mother Xie saw through it at a glance, and sternly said, "Still hiding?! There's blood all over! Qiuyue! Go get a doctor!"

The maid behind Xie's mother quickly responded, "Yes."

"Wait a minute, mother!" Xie Cheng hurriedly stopped, "There is no need to mobilize people for such a small injury. There is a medicine box in my son's room, so I can treat it myself."

Mother Xie took a look at his hand, it wasn't too serious, but the phalanx was scratched and the skin was scratched, and there was a sawdust as thick as a thin chopstick sticking diagonally on the back of the hand.

She said distressedly: "The injury is on the right hand, how do you deal with it yourself? Where is the medicine box?"

Xie Cheng had no choice but to find the medicine box, and Xie's mother gave him the medicine.

"Tell me about you, how old are you, and you still lose your temper like this?"

Xie's mother picked out the sawdust with a silver needle, and reprimanded him distressedly, "Even if you are unhappy in your heart, you shouldn't vent your anger on your body. Your body is hairy and skinny, and you are the parents. Aren't you stabbing your mother in the heart? "

"...The son knows his mistake."

Mother Xie paused for a moment, looked up and saw his obedient look, she couldn't help sighing, and while giving him medicine, she said: "I know you are sensible since you were young, so you didn't bother me."

"But I also worry occasionally. You never cry or act like a baby. The older you get, the more dull your temper is. You keep everything in your heart, and you seldom reveal your heart to me and your father—is it because we treat you too harshly? "

"Mother..." Xie Cheng opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to comfort Xie's mother. After a moment of silence, he said: "My son is dull and dull by nature, so I have troubled you."

Xie Mu's throat choked, and she retorted: "As a mother, how can you not know what kind of temperament your son is? If you are really not angry or happy, why are you so angry today?"

Xie Cheng moved his lips and lowered his eyes in silence.

He gradually realized that he was indeed too abnormal today.

"Xiao Yu's child is lively. I thought that you would not get along with him and would gradually grow apart. I didn't expect that you two are as close as brothers and sisters. The bigger the relationship, the better."

Xie's mother bandaged his wound, and sighed: "Since that's the case, it's fine to make a small fuss, why bother to blush and hurt your feelings?"

Mother Xie persuaded him: "Mother doesn't want you to just let him go. He is two years younger than you, but you have to change things that are not sensible. You can talk about him, but don't sulk yourself, huh?"

Xie Cheng's eyelashes trembled, and he said "um", not daring to look at Xie's mother.

Now Xie's mother still doesn't know what he thinks about Xiao Yu, and only thinks that they are "brotherly".

But he knew it wasn't the case.

In his previous life, he hid it so well that he almost deceived himself.But from the moment he opened his eyes again in this life, he knew that he would never let go of that person again.

It's just that he didn't dare to act rashly, and wanted to plan carefully and step by step.

But today he lost his sense of proportion.

It is only now that he understands that it turns out that if the other party leaves his sight, he will be uneasy, if his words and deeds are repeated, he will be out of order, and if he is out of his control, he will lose all reason.

And Ren Xiaoyao was the poison that drove him crazy.

As long as he appears beside Jiang Xianyu, it is enough to make him crazy like a beast whose territory has been violated.

Even because of this, he angered the person who should be held in the palm of his hand and cherished.

If Jiang Xianyu from the previous life was so angry today, he would definitely fall out with him, and even deliberately contradict him in order to make friends with Ren Xiaoyao.

And the reason why he dared to say such unscrupulous words to Jiang Xianyu today was because the other party was reborn like him.In fact, he was sure in his heart that even if Jiang Xianyu didn't hate Ren Xiaoyao, he would never trust him again.

He knew it clearly, but he still got angry with Jiang Xianyu, exposing his resistance to Ren Xiaoyao, and most likely also exposing the secret of his rebirth.

If the boy was sharp enough, he might have already discovered it.

Mother Xie patted his hand lightly, "Fortunately, the injury was not serious, otherwise how would you eat and write these days? How would you take the scientific examination next month?"

Xie Cheng: "It's my son who was impulsive, and I won't do it in the future."

Seeing that he was already introspective, Mother Xie sighed softly, "I'll ask the kitchen to bring you meals, if you're still upset, I'll take leave of absence from the academy and rest at home."

"Thank you mother."

Xie Chengshi didn't know the taste in this room, and the guest banquet in Jiang's mansion next door didn't go well.

Jiang Xianyu was so unhappy that he didn't have time to talk to Ren Xiaoyao, and he didn't even bother to deal with the etiquette of hospitality.

After eating half a bowl of rice, he put down his chopsticks and stood up, "Use it slowly, I'm going to the academy first."

"This child!" Father Jiang feigned anger, "The guest is still here!"

Jiang's mother explained to Ren Xiaoyao with a little apology: "Don't blame Ren Shaoxia, this child is spoiled by us and doesn't know how to be polite."

Ren Xiaoyao smiled and said: "Uncle and Aunt are serious, it was Ren who came to visit suddenly and caused trouble for everyone."

As he spoke, he raised his glass to Father Jiang and Mother Jiang and said, "Thank you Uncle, Aunt, and Brother Bai Zhou for your kind hospitality. Ren will replace wine with tea to express his gratitude."

After the meal, Ren Xiaoyao bid farewell and left, but Jiang Baizhou didn't want to keep him any longer, and sent him outside the door.

After leaving the Jiang Mansion, the modest smile on Ren Xiaoyao's face disappeared.

He glanced at the Xie Mansion next door, his eyes dimmed.

……

On the other side, Jiang Xianyu rushed to the academy, and waited until the afternoon for class in Xiucai Class A, but failed to wait for Xie Cheng.

Only then did he realize that Xie Cheng might not come.

He wanted to go back to Xie's mansion to find someone, but was caught by Mrs. Liu and escorted back to the children's class.

After class, he was detained by his wife, and he insisted on making up for the missed class in the morning, and was stared at to finish his homework before he was able to escape.

It was already late when we left the academy, the first quarter moon hung high, and the night market was bustling.

Jiang Xianyu happened to be very hungry, so he went to Juxianlou to buy a beggar chicken, brought another jar of wine, and prepared to go back to find Xie Cheng.

In his previous life, he had a good relationship with Ren Xiaoyao, which delayed his studies, and Xie Cheng also expressed his dissatisfaction.So he wasn't sure if Xie Cheng's anger today was because he was worried that he would not do his job properly and wanted to go out into the world, or if he was really reborn like him.

But Xie Cheng and Ren Xiaoyao had only met once, so he regarded the latter as "wolf ambition", and the possibility of rebirth was more likely.

So at that time Jiang Xianyu didn't dare to chase Xie Cheng, but now that he has calmed down, he doesn't dare to ask.

If the other party is also reborn, Jiang Xianyu really doesn't know how to face him...

But escaping is not the way, no matter what, he doesn't intend to fight Xie Cheng coldly.

……

Xie Mansion, Zhuzhuyuan.

Xie Cheng removed the strap on his right hand, endured the pain on the back of his hand and practiced a few big characters, his mood slowly settled down.

But at this moment, a strange splash was heard outside the courtyard.

He frowned and stopped writing, "Know ink?"

"it's me."

The door was suddenly pushed open, and a masked man in black stood by the door with a sword behind his back, pulled down his mask, looked at Xie Cheng with a smile, and called, "Xie Linyuan."

Xie Cheng's face turned cold, and he clenched his molars: "Ren Xiaoyao!"

Looking at each other in front of Jiang's house at noon, Xie Cheng discovered the strangeness of Ren Xiaoyao, and the guess in his heart at this moment was finally confirmed.

"Don't come here without any problems, Xie Linyuan." The smile on Ren Xiaoyao's face was still modest and warm, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

Xie Cheng's eyes burst out with hatred like a prairie fire, he turned around and drew out the long sword on the shelf, and stabbed at Ren Xiaoyao.

Ren Xiaoyao retreated to the outside of the courtyard, and drew out the long sword behind his back to resist.

Xie Cheng caught a glimpse of Shimo lying on the ground, and felt even more angry.

Ren Xiaoyao smiled and said, "Don't worry, I just knocked him out."

But Xie Cheng didn't intend to let him go, his move was fatal and his murderous intent was fierce.

Ren Xiaoyao fought and retreated, it seemed that he was just trying to test, and had no intention of entanglement, so he flew up to the roof, ready to get away and leave.

Xie Cheng chased after him, not intending to let him come and go freely.

The long swords collided and sparks burst out, and there was a sound of trampling tiles under their feet, and the servants of the Xie Mansion were startled.

At this moment, Ren Xiaoyao suddenly heard the howling wind, and quickly turned sideways to avoid it, only to see a wine jar hit the roof with a loud clang.

If it was half a minute later, the wine jar would have smashed on his forehead.

He looked towards the wine jar in surprise, and met Jiang Xianyu's angry eyes.

The appearance of Jiang Xianyu made Xie Cheng panic for a moment, and then his killing intent became stronger, vowing to take this opportunity to take down Ren Xiaoyao's head.

However, Ren Xiaoyao suddenly approached him with a horizontal sword, and whispered with a smile.

The veins on Xie Cheng's forehead suddenly tightened, and he charged towards Ren Xiaoyao.The latter's chest was torn apart, he took advantage of the situation and fell off the roof, stepped on the treetop courtyard wall, turned and fled.

"Thank you! Are you okay?"

Jiang Xianyu caught up to the roof and saw that Xie Cheng was intact, but the man in black ran away. He hurriedly tried to catch up, but Xie Cheng grabbed him.

"Stop chasing."

Xie Cheng tightly grasped Jiang Xianyu's wrist, the hand holding the sword trembled slightly.

He thought back to Ren Xiaoyao's last words, and never dared to let Jiang Xianyu chase him.

Ren Xiaoyao just asked him: "Xiao Yu is the same as us, right?"
