Predecessors

Chapter 97 An Oolong

Liu Ruyun hesitated for a long time at the edge of the village, holding the address Wang Ji had given him in his hand, hesitating whether to visit him or not.

He knew that it was inappropriate for him to appear in front of Wang Ji now, otherwise he would be in danger of being discovered.

However, it is rare for Wang Ji to come back, and I don't know when the next time will be.

After thinking about it, he wrapped the black veil on his head more tightly and walked into the village.

On the other side, Wang Ji was about to go out.They have more than half a month of family-sacrificing time this time, but there is not much stock left in the kitchen.

"Buy more meat." Lin Yi instructed with the taste fading from his mouth.

Wang Ji looked back at him a few times, and went out with a vegetable basket.

Lin Yi had nothing to do, he pushed himself into the yard, humming a little tune.

His legs are gradually showing signs of improvement. Although he still can't fully support him up, he can already handle the simple movement of stretching his legs.

This time, when he saw Wang Ji busying himself, he always had an impulse to tell him: I know who you are now, so stop pretending.

But back off every time.

Lin Yi told himself that next time, if he found a suitable opportunity, he would talk to him again.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door outside the house.Lin Yi was a little puzzled, wondering who would come to the door at this time?

He pushed himself against the door and flipped the latch.

"Didn't you bring the key? What about the vegetables you bought?"

Looking at Wang Ji who was empty-handed and still wearing a black veil, Lin Yi was a little puzzled.

Liu Ruyun knew Lin Yi, and Wang Ji had mentioned him.He was anxious secretly, for a moment he didn't know whether to come in or run away.

Lin Yi already took his hand without any further explanation, "Come in, it's cold outside."

Liu Ruyun looked at her hand that was tied to Lin Yi, her face was a little ugly.If Wang Ji came back later and saw how close she and Lin Yi were...

Liu Ruyun quickly broke away from Lin Yi's hand, he scratched his head helplessly, "I...you..."

Seeing him throwing his hand away, Lin Yi showed a trace of embarrassment on his face. He was too anxious, after all, the two of them are still completely reconciled.

Lin Yi changed the topic, "Didn't you go shopping for vegetables? Why didn't you buy any vegetables?"

"There are...no good dishes in the vegetable market."

Lin Yi smiled and said, "You are too picky. It seems that we can only eat small noodles in clear soup today."

Liu Ruyun was eager to find a way out, he looked around, a little absent-minded.

A sudden gust of wind blew, making Lin Yi shiver with cold. He glanced at Wang Ji and found that Wang Ji didn't respond. He couldn't help feeling a little disappointed in his heart, "Push me in."

Liu Ruyun was afraid of revealing his flaws, so he pushed him into the room according to his wishes.He was a little flustered, and staggered when passing the steps, almost knocking Lin Yi to the ground.

After entering the house, Liu Ruyun couldn't help walking up and down the house because of her impatience.

Lin Yi sensed his abnormality, and felt a little unhappy.Could it be that Wang Ji has gradually become tired of the life with her, "Ruyun, do you want to leave?"

Liu Ruyun nodded subconsciously, he wished he could grow a pair of wings and fly away from here, otherwise he would be ruined when Wang Ji came back.

Lin Yi lowered his eyes and stopped talking.

For a moment, the room fell into an eerie silence.

After a long time, Lin Yi stared blankly at the teacup in his hand, the tea in it was already cold.He poured the water in in one breath, feeling a bitterness that went deep into the marrow of his bones.Why is it not so bitter when it is still hot?

At this time, another knock on the door broke the silence.Liu Ruyun seemed to have a premonition, and hurried to the front to open the door.

Liu Ruyun only opened the door a small gap, Lin Yi inside the room couldn't see the person at the door, "Who is here?"

Liu Ruyun looked at the person who looked exactly like her outside the door, her expression flustered, "It's okay, someone knocked on the wrong door."

In order to prevent Lin Yi from seeing the people outside the door, Liu Ruyun hurriedly tried to cover the door.

At this time, Wang Ji had already squeezed the door open first.

Lin Yi glanced outside the house, and saw "Ningxi" again.

"Why are you here again?"

Wang Ji smiled, "I miss you."

Lin Yi didn't take this sentence to heart. In fact, he was not in the mood to greet Ningxi now. The only thing he thought about was why Wang Ji suddenly became so cold to him.

He began to reflect on himself. Since his legs and feet were inconvenient, he has accepted the care of others with peace of mind.Maybe I should do something for Wang Ji?

Lin Yi waved to Liu Ruyun, Liu Ruyun looked at Wang Ji's face in embarrassment, and walked up to Lin Yi in step.

Lin Yi wrapped his hands around Liu Ruyun's, "Are your hands cold? I'll warm you up."

Fatty Hei was afraid of the cold when he was a child, and Lin Yi would often stuff his hands into the sleeves of his clothes to warm him.

Liu Ruyun's hands were maintained in a stiff posture, and after he felt Wang Ji's terrifying gaze, his body trembled even more.

Wang Ji's complexion was a little cloudy, and he stepped forward to brush Liu Ruyun's hand away, "My hands are also cold, so please warm me up."

Lin Yi was a little annoyed by his actions and ignored him.

Wang Ji stretched out her hand in the air awkwardly, Liu Ruyun began to feel a little sympathetic to him, and stretched out her hand to him hesitantly.

Wang Ji glared at him, and Liu Ruyun retracted her hand silently.

Liu Ruyun murmured secretly in her heart, this General Wang Ji is really jealous.

Lin Yi at the side glanced at Wang Ji and then at "Ningxi", his eyes were tinged with worry.

"I'm so cold, can you get me some clothes?" Lin Yi said to Liu Ruyun.

Liu Ruyun was about to go to get it, but was shrunk back by Wang Ji's slap in the face. Wang Ji got up and went to the room to get Lin Yi's carelessness.

Lin Yi looked at the interaction between the two of them, and frowned, "Ruyun, go get it."

Wang Ji returned to her original seat in embarrassment.

Liu Ruyun was glad that she finally escaped from the battlefield without gunpowder smoke, and rushed to the room.

Seeing Liu Ruyun go to the inner room, Lin Yi lowered his voice and said, "Ningxi, do you still think I'm your Uncle Lin?"

"It's natural."

Lin Yi turned his gaze several times before uttering what he wanted to say, "Ningxi, I've always noticed that you have some affection for Wang Ji, right?"

"What?" Wang Ji never thought that Lin Yi would discuss this topic with herself.

"You don't have to be shy." Lin Yi smiled kindly, "Who didn't have a few people he liked when he was young?"

Wang Ji didn't know what to say, Lin Yi thought he was embarrassed, and felt a little emotional in his heart.

"If you liked Wang Ji, I could have fulfilled you."

"What?" Wang Ji's eyes widened, not believing what she heard.
