Stay up all night waiting for you to come

Sure enough, with Lin Xiao's order, neither the new steward of the pavilion nor Qi Ling himself dared to continue to behave mischievously. Because of being fed with soup, even if Qi Ling didn't want to lie down, he couldn't help but think about it. The tiredness that kept coming, fell into a drowsy sleep.

In the evening, Lin Xiao quietly came to Dongnuan Pavilion, opened the door and walked in. He saw Qi Ling still lying on the bed and asleep. He didn't want to disturb him, but he saw Qi Ling's arm still exposed from a distance. Outside the quilt, after hesitating for a moment, Lin Xiao still walked over gently to tuck him in the quilt.

Qi Ling slept deeply, and it was rare that he was not alert. Lin Xiao pulled his quilt up, and he couldn't look away anymore.

In fact, Qi Lingsheng is not particularly good-looking, he can only be regarded as handsome, and he is a little dull on weekdays, like a wooden stake.

He will only show his fierce and bloodthirsty side when killing people, but that kind of fatal danger is an irresistible temptation for Lin Xiao, especially when he knows that this person will always treat him differently from others .

Lin Xiao never doubted Qi Ling's loyalty, because when he picked up this child, he knew that it was a lone wolf, bloodthirsty and cruel, and did not understand love in the world, but he would never betray himself, because The way he looked at him was soft and docile.

It was because he knew this clearly that Lin Xiao's heart sank deeper and deeper. He wanted to completely possess Qi Ling from the bottom of his heart.

This man is vigorous, strong, and loyal, and he believes that he is special from the bottom of his heart. Lin Xiao likes this kind of tameness from a strong man so much that he goes crazy. place.

At this time, Qi Ling was sleeping soundly, without any defense, his face was a little pale, his long eyelashes cast a small shadow, he was well-behaved and obedient, and seemed to be very harmless, but Lin Xiao knew that the eyes below were dangerous when killing people How cold and calm, and when that cheek was stained with blood, it was even more soul-stirring.

It's just that Qi Ling didn't seem to be sleeping soundly at this time, his brows were slightly frowned, as if he had dreamed of something that disturbed and confused him.

Lin Xiao stretched out his hand like a demon to smooth his brow, at this moment, Qi Ling suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were fierce and alert, and suddenly grabbed his wrist, but after recognizing Lin Xiao After taking Xiao Xiao's identity, he immediately let go of his hand, with a little astonishment and doubt on his face.

"Lord?"

Qi Ling looked at Lin Xiao blankly, blinked his eyes slowly, and almost thought that he hadn't woken up and had hallucinations, otherwise why did the Lord's eyes look so familiar just now?

Lin Xiao didn't speak, and looked at Qi Ling lying there blankly as expected, a little at a loss, as if the man with the fierce expression just now was not him, but more like a wild beast that took the initiative to put away its minions, with A little cautious.

"I've finished my work in the pavilion, and I'm coming to see you."

Lin Xiao seemed to rub his head calmly, and there was no more overstepping. Qi Ling's eyes were much gentler, and he just wanted to rub against the palm of his hand, but before he could move, Lin Xiao had already retracted his hand into the sleeve.

Qi Ling frowned, stared at Lin Xiao's sleeve and said nothing.

Lin Xiao had forced himself to withdraw his hand, so as not to cross that distance again, but inadvertently looked at Qi Ling suspiciously at his hand tucked into his sleeve, his fingertips trembled slightly, and he simply put his hand behind his back Behind them, they held each other quietly.

Now Qi Ling frowned even deeper, he could feel Lin Xiao's resistance to him, although he didn't understand why.

The atmosphere between the two gradually fell silent. Qi Ling looked at Lin Xiao steadfastly, but Lin Xiao didn't dare to look him in the eyes. Some things are missing, but they are actually covering up their own bewilderment.

Even though it has reached such a point, Lin Xiao is still reluctant to leave. He wants to sit here with Qi Ling for a while longer. In order to find a reason, he can only bite the bullet and find nothing to say.

"Is it cold here?" Lin Xiao asked in a low voice.

Qi Ling shook his head blankly, the construction of the Nuan Pavilion is more comfortable and closed than ordinary rooms, and the materials are also very particular, how can it be cold?Besides, although it is the end of autumn now, he is a martial arts practitioner after all, and his dantian has internal energy to protect him, so even if he wears thinner clothes in winter, he will not feel cold.

Lin Xiao touched Qi Ling's quilt with lowered eyes, it was indeed much softer and thicker than the one in his original small room, he reached into the quilt and touched the mattress underneath, it was slightly wrinkled frown.

"Although the bed made of agarwood is of good quality, it is also moisture-proof and insect-proof, but after all, it is a bit cold and hard, and the mattress under it is still a bit thin. I will ask someone to add another layer for you at night."

Qi Ling was stunned, but shook his head: "Forget it, if the bed is too soft, the subordinates will sleep very deeply, and inevitably they will be less vigilant, and the subordinates will not live here all the time."

Lin Xiao frowned and tucked the quilt up again for him, and couldn't help but scolded in a low voice when he heard this.

"What are you talking about? Why don't you sleep well at night and be so vigilant all day long? It's fine if you're outside. You don't have to be so careful inside the pavilion. You just need to rest at night. Also, I've already let people know about your little broken house. It's sealed, and you will live here from now on, so it's convenient for me to find you if I have anything to do."

Qi Ling's lips moved, and he replied in a low voice, yes, after all, he still didn't dare to tell his Patriarch about his secret exchange with the hidden guard. If Lin Xiao knew about it, he would definitely not let himself At night, they lie on the beams of the house to be vigilant and do not go back to the room to sleep.

In fact, Qi Ling also knew that there would be no danger in the Sunset Pavilion, but a few years ago, a killer sneaked into the pavilion to assassinate Lin Xiao secretly. Outside, Lin Xiao would inevitably be disturbed even if he was fine.

Fortunately, Qi Ling was quick to deal with that person before waking Lin Xiao up, but in the end he didn't force him to find out who sent that person. Lin Xiao still didn't know about it, but Qi Ling did. Not daring to be careless, he started to stay by his side every night.

Even though he was recuperating during the day for the past few days, he would sneak into the dark corner of Lin Xiao's residence to guard at night. Only when he was by Lin Xiao's side could he feel more at ease, and he had already gotten used to it.

"My lord, my subordinates are fine."

Qi Ling lowered his head, hesitated for a while, and then gently held Lin Xiao's hand. Lin Xiao's whole body shook, and he could feel the warm and flexible touch from the back of his hand, and he held Qi Ling's hand in his backhand. palm.

"Of course you're fine, Qi Ling, you're my brother for life, and I won't let anything happen to you again."

Lin Xiao's heart was pounding in his chest. Qi Ling was instinctively prepared and resisted because of his sudden movement, but because the person who touched him was Lin Xiao, he slowly relaxed again and restrained his heart just now. The bloodthirsty impulse gushing out.

Lin Xiao held his thin and slender palm, his heart was hot, but his usual calmness and restraint finally returned to his eyes.

"Don't worry, no matter when, you are my brother, I will not leave you alone, and I will not let anyone hurt you again."

Lin Xiao's expression was very serious. For the first time, he didn't avoid Qi Ling's eyes. He stared at the eyes that made him sink, and his voice was solemn and firm. At this time, he still liked this man to the bottom of his heart, but this time he didn't Will let myself hurt him again, never.

There was some doubt in Qi Ling's eyes. After a long silence, he still couldn't figure out some things, but finally nodded and agreed.

Anyway, as long as it is what the Lord said, he is right to agree.

As if he had figured this out, Qi Ling's eyes lit up, and a strange look flashed across his face. He took Lin Xiao's hand and shook it unconsciously, like an obedient child who wants to be praised.

Lin Xiao was suffocated for breathing, and only then did he realize that the hands of the two people were still holding each other together, and the back of their ears started to burn. Qi Ling's palms were clenched into fists.

"Uh... you go to bed early, I have someone cook some food for you... I'll go and see if you're okay!"

Pavilion Master Lin's neck was slightly red, and he forcibly controlled his thoughts of jumping up. He covered his fists and rushed out. He even used lightness kung fu and didn't dare to stay for a moment. Qi Ling's hand was still in the air. Staring blankly at the closed door, he couldn't come back to his senses for a long while.

My lord...why did you run away?

After Lin Xiao rushed out of Dongnuan Pavilion in a panic, he still felt his face was steaming. He found a dark corner to calm down for a long time before suppressing the throbbing and hotness in his heart. In the end, he stared at himself His right hand clenched into a fist showed a bitter smile.

"Hey, such a distance is also a bit dangerous, it seems that we should pay more attention."

He spread his right hand, and lightly placed a kiss on the palm of his hand, as if he could still smell the cold breath on Qi Ling's body.

At night, Lin Xiao didn't dare to go to Qi Ling again, but asked someone to deliver the cooked supplements. The new manager was indeed a smart person. After hearing him say that the mattress was a little thin, he immediately let him Someone sent a new and thick mattress over.

Not only that, but he also prepared a charcoal fire in Dongnuan Pavilion long ago, and sent all the food and hot water in a steady stream, and the waiters were more attentive than Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao didn't say anything after knowing this, and rewarded him with some silver. The man looked at the reward from the pavilion master, and suddenly understood everything in his heart.

Well, the pavilion master is really powerful, and the golden house can hide so beautifully that he is the master of the dark hall!

When the new steward thought of Qi Ling's appearance, his forehead felt a little cold, and his heart felt even colder, and he admired Lin Xiao even more.
