smile to heart

=====================

After Qi Zhong and others successfully brought back the Yan Xuelian, Feng Mei rushed to make the elixir overnight, gave it to Li Yuanqian, and told everyone to wait for him overnight and keep the surroundings as quiet as possible so as not to delay his awakening time.

After finishing all this, he hurried to Fang Yanxiao's residence.Hearing that she was injured, although Feng Mei didn't show much emotion on the face, her heart couldn't calm down.

When I came to the wisteria courtyard, I saw the door was closed tightly.Feng Mei adjusted the sleeves that were running around all the way, knocked on the door three times, waiting for a response.

Inside the house, Fang Yanxiao was trying to use internal force to force out the cold air in her waist, she had already closed her five senses, and she didn't even know anyone was coming.

Feng Mei called her several times in a row, but no one answered.He was a little worried, fearing that her illness would prolong and she would fall into a coma, so he decided to break in the door abruptly.

With a bang, the process of luck was disrupted by this huge movement.Fang Yanxiao stopped, frowned in displeasure, and mistakenly thought that some servant girl from the villa broke in recklessly and disturbed her healing.

Just as she was about to reprimand, she looked up for a moment, but saw Feng Mei rushing into the back room in a panic, immediately, the two looked at each other, each other stunned.

In the hazy pink tent, the beauty's plain clothes are loose, her fragrant shoulders are half exposed, her hair is a little messy, and her eyes are like water looking back at herself.Feng Mei didn't know whether it was her heart or her thoughts, she was at a loss, she quickly withdrew her gaze, turned around in a hurry, and said in a surprisingly soft and soft voice, "Hug, I'm sorry."

She lowered her eyes in embarrassment, and Fang Yanxiao also recovered from the shock, and hurriedly tied up her clothes.Some don't understand, so: "You, what are you doing here?"

Feng Mei felt a little sweat running across his forehead, and he said nervously, "I heard you were injured. Let me take a look..."

"Look?" Fang Yanxiao frowned.

Feng Mei's mind went blank for a moment, and she explained in a panic: "It's not the one who looks at it, yes, it looks at the injury."

Fang Yanxiao's tone was light: "No need, my injury is on my waist. It's not convenient for you to look at it, but I can handle it myself, don't bother you."

"How did it hurt?" he asked again.

Fang Yanxiao was a little surprised at his abnormality today, and replied: "I was injured by the snow from Tianxinyuan."

"Huh? You are very skilled in martial arts, how could you be injured like this?"

Fang Yanxiao said lazily: "A master doesn't win every time."

Feng Mei pondered for a moment, and then said: "The scorching snow is not ordinary cold, external application alone cannot force out the cold air in the body, if you need help, I can..."

"unnecessary."

Cold rejection marks the clarity of boundaries.

Feng Mei's face froze, unwilling to be angry, she snorted coldly, turned around and left: "Then just pretend I didn't say anything just now."

After the person left, Fang Yanxiao relaxed and spit out the blood in her throat.If the process of treating the cold hadn't been interrupted, she wouldn't have had bad luck and suffered backlash.

Owing favors is the worst thing to repay.She has never liked receiving kindness.

Depressed walking out of the wisteria garden, Feng Mei became more and more annoyed as she thought about it, her good intentions were rejected in this way, it was simply...

"Hey, why is Master Medical Saint here?"

Luo Qingchen did not expect to meet Feng Mei on the way to persuade Fang Yanxiao to turn back, and was quite surprised.

"Why are you here?"

"I'm here to visit my peers, shouldn't I?" Luo Qingchen provocatively blocked his way.

Feng Mei stared at him and said coldly: "Then go and see, what are you doing in my way?"

Stepping out of the way, Luo Qingchen smiled bitterly: "Emissary Fang Yue has a bad temper, my lord forgive me."

"Hmph." Feng Mei endured the tone in her heart, feeling displeased.

From the corner of the eye, he caught a glimpse of the cover of a book in Luo Qingchen's hand, and was immediately surprised.He recalled Fang Yanxiao's tense expression just now, her abnormal tone, and her thin clothes... Fengmei thought of the prostitution scene she saw in the underground palace, and also remembered the relationship between Luo Qingchen and her. No matter what, the book about charms must be for her.

Everything suddenly dawned on me.

Feng Mei was furious, and regretted her meddling even more.What kind of bullshit injury does not need her own medical skills to heal, but relies on coquetry to recuperate, no wonder her skills have improved so quickly, it turned out that it was all by such dirty means.

Feeling restless, he walked briskly away from this filthy soil.

Luo Qingchen persuaded Fang Yanxiao a few more words, seeing that she still seemed to be intoxicated, and stopped being with them.

Unavoidably a little annoyed, he handed the forbidden book in his hand to her, and said coldly: "Since you have made up your mind, then deal with the affairs of your subordinates as soon as possible. Don't even ignore your subordinates. Look at this Yanluo, don't you After receiving her message, she will come to bother me to help her find books..."

Fang Yanxiao frowned slightly, and said impatiently: "Throw away the book. It's disgusting. She said flatteringly that she likes pestering men the most. I never promised to help her find any books. You are stupid and willing to fall in love with her." Right."

"Huh?" Luo Qingchen was slightly surprised, he didn't expect that he would be tricked for no reason.If he had known earlier, he would not have sold Fang Yanxiao's favor and taken care of her subordinates.

……

evening hours.

Li Yuanqian, who had been sleeping for a long time, finally woke up, and the hearts of everyone were relieved.

Qi Zhong talked to him for a while, and felt that he had just escaped from death and needed a lot of rest, so he didn't bother him too much.After exiting Li Yuanqian's room with Mu Yun, the two walked in the night to relax.

"Thanks to Senior Brother Luo and Patriarch Tang Er's help this time, otherwise Yuan Qian wouldn't have recovered so quickly..."

Hearing him mention Luo Qingchen, Mu Yun's eyes darkened, he nodded lightly, and didn't say much.

Qi Zhong babbled again: "Of course, it's also thanks to your support. It's really generous! By the way, my elder sister and Miss Biao were both injured because of this. I've been busy for a long time, and I haven't had time to visit them yet."

Mu Yun replied: "At noon, I have already delivered wound medicine to them. Both of them are in good condition, so don't worry."

"Oh...thank you." Qi Zhong touched his head and secretly sighed for his carelessness.

Unknowingly, Mu Yun followed Qi Zhong around and inexplicably came to the winery where the wine was stored in the villa. He recalled the embarrassing incident last time, quickly blocked Qi Zhong's sight, and persuaded: "It's getting late, and you are tired too. After a day, let's go back to our room and rest."

"Huh? What is that..." Qi Zhong still caught a glimpse of several jars of fine wine standing under the flower tree, and said happily, "Oh, I found Brother Luo's rare wine! Wait, I'll go get some jugs , let's go to the gazebo in front and have a drink."

"No.

Before Mu Yun could finish his words, he followed his heart first.

……

In the silent attic, the lights were turned on again.

Luo Qingchen hurriedly opened the secret pavilion, and as soon as he entered, he saw Xi Yan coming out slowly from under the veil on the side.He held back the anger in his heart, and tried his best to keep his voice calm: "What? Do you have the guts to disobey my order, and don't you have the guts to plead guilty?"

The hands under the black hood were trembling, Xi Yan stepped forward cautiously, and whispered: "I..."

Luo Qingchen, who had had a big fight with Mu Xi, was already angry, and seeing that the perpetrators behind the scenes were so shy and irresponsible, he couldn't help raising his hand, and the cup of sweet-scented osmanthus tea on the table next to him was broken into pieces .

"Who told you to take the initiative to stimulate Li Yuanqian's relapse? Do you know that he is the last bargaining chip in our hands to contain Li Yuanxie's soul consciousness? Do you know that I almost became the target of public criticism in Mu Xi's eyes? If During Tian Xinyuan's trip, they didn't come back alive, how should I explain to Mu Xi?"

Among the three sentences, two are inseparable from Mu Xi.Xi Yan's eyes were filled with jealousy, and his emotions exploded. He retorted: "The master doesn't need to explain anything to anyone! Mu Xi is not worthy at all! The master is clearly aware of the distribution of power and personal relationships in his heart, otherwise he would not give that share to anyone. Hand over the road map, don't you? You just want them to die, so you don't let your hands be stained with blood... because you are afraid that Mu Xi will blame you, right?"

"Master, when did you become so cowardly!"

Luo Qingchen was furious at the hypocrisy in the middle of every sentence, and shouted: "Enough! I really indulged you too much, you really let me down."

Xi Yan replied angrily: "Master also let Xi Yan down..."

Before Mu Xi returned to Huayue Mountain Villa, Luo Qingchen treated him well and never gave up a word of criticism. No matter what he did wrong, he would never see Luo Qingchen so angry.Now I was just helping him to remove stumbling blocks on the road to his great cause, but he didn't get a word of praise, instead he blamed him so much.

Xi Yan was full of grievances, bitter tears dripped down his cheeks silently, he choked up and said: "If the master insists on blaming Xi Yan, please give me the death penalty."

"You..." Hearing his sad reply, Luo Qingchen's anger subsided for a moment, and his compassion grew even stronger.

He rubbed the space between his brows, finally couldn't bear it, helped Xi Yan up, and relaxed his expression: "That's all. Don't have another time. I have my own discretion."

"Yes..." There was a weeping trill from under the drooping hood.Xi Yan's acting skills are superb, and after hearing that Luo Qingchen forgave him, he made more progress. Relying on his stubborn illness, he pretended to be dizzy and about to collapse due to emotional agitation.

Seeing this, Luo Qingchen hurriedly took him by the arm, and said with concern: "What's wrong? Is the old disease recurring?"

Xi Yan shook his head and fell into his arms without saying a word.The hood covered the sight of the two of them, and Luo Qingchen, who couldn't see Xi Yan's face, didn't know his expression of success, only knew that he had been fooled.

……

August is cool in autumn and the weather is gradually refreshing.

When Li Yuanqian recovered from his injury, it was just as the mid-term festive season was approaching.In order to prevent everyone from staying in the direction of suspicion, Luo Qingchen set up a Mid-Autumn Festival dinner to divert everyone's attention.

The red lotus in the water pavilion, the moon is like gold.

In a happy atmosphere, the wine is full of aroma.On the mahogany low table, there are plates of moon cakes, of various colors and complete tastes.

Qi Zhong likes salted egg yolk-flavored mooncakes the most, and after taking a sip of the wine, it leaves the aftertaste the most.It's a pity that the quantity is limited. He ate three, but it was still not enough.Shaking his head, he fixed his eyes on the next table.

He saw that Mu Yun had been listening carefully to Luo Qingchen's polite words, and he didn't move his chopsticks or cups, and the delicious delicacies became decorations on the table.Unable to tsk his tongue, Qi finally thought, this kid is really unlucky.

I want to eat, but I am too embarrassed to ask people for it in front of so many people.Qi Zhong hesitated for a while, and dismissed the idea of ​​being greedy, and suddenly remembered that after Min Zhi recovered from her injury, she became much quieter, and she hadn't heard much noise from her in the past few days, and suddenly she was not used to it.

Qi finally felt that he should toast her, after all, he suffered for helping her.

"What are you thinking? You don't even roll your eyes."

Min Zhi came back to her senses, looked up and saw Qi Zhong who was quietly running to her side, her depressed mood suddenly became brighter, she lowered her head and smiled: "It's nothing. What are you doing here?"

"Accompany you for a drink."

Min Zhi was stunned for a moment, then smiled again: "I don't like drinking, if you are sincere, why don't you go back to Shengjing with me. Cangzhou is not far from there, and you can return in half a day..."

"Hey, stop. You didn't invite me to accompany you back to your hometown, did you?" Qi Zhong said nervously.

Min Zhi nodded: "Yes."

Qi Zhong laughed twice: "Hey, silly girl. How can you lead people into the house casually? If your father sees me, you can't misunderstand me for no reason..."

Hearing this, Min Zhi's expression froze, his eyes were gloomy, and his tone was light: "I, my parents are gone, and home is not home anymore...you don't have to be so restrained."

Qi Zhong was stunned, and the hand holding the cup trembled slightly.Why did he suddenly forget about this just now? Min Zhi told him about her being an orphan since she was a child.Unexpectedly, he echoed casually, but revealed other people's sad things.

"I... accidentally said nonsense, don't be angry."

Min Zhi suppressed her sadness, and said with a relaxed smile, "I'm not angry. Then what I just said, would you like it?"

"Uh...Let's talk about it. Don't we still have a task to do now?" Qi Zhong scratched his head, unwilling to promise easily.

Min Zhi still persevered: "What about after completing the mission? Will you come to Shengjing to find me?"

"...I will." Qi Zhong replied in a low voice.

Min Zhi was a little displeased to hear that he agreed so reluctantly: "Forget it. You can drink it yourself, don't bother me."

"Hey, me." Seeing that the person was annoyed, Qi Zhong felt ashamed, changed his mind, and simply said, "Okay! You set a time and place, and when I am free, I will definitely keep the appointment to find you."

"It's a deal!" Min Zhi turned his anger into joy, thought for a moment, and then said, "Then how about we meet in Baihua Lane, Yong'an Street, Shengjing every April when the locust tree blooms? Come and we will I will take you to visit all the fun places in the capital and taste all the delicious food..."

"Haha. There is food and drink, this agreement is worthwhile. I will definitely come."

Qi Zhong took a sip of wine, nodded in praise.

When the two were talking and laughing, they didn't pay attention to the pair of bright eyes on the opposite side, and the envious eyes wandering from time to time.
