Cold and warm depend on each other

The inn was specially chosen by Su Zhe, with brilliant decoration and spacious gates, it can be regarded as a quiet place in the bustling city of Ziyang.Xue Wanxiang stood at the corner of the stairs, watching the commotion not far away.The girl chattered non-stop while holding Su Zhe's arm, and the big men next to her watched helplessly and dotingly, completely unable to talk to her.

The waiter went upstairs to deliver things to the objective, and when she came down, she saw Xue Wanxiang still standing on the stairs, her knuckles were turning white while holding on to the handrail.He followed her gaze and looked down, yo ho!Mr. Su is eating from the bowl and looking at the pot? ?

This is worth it!The second brother was a little bit filled with righteous indignation, after thinking for a while, he went to the stairs and shouted loudly: "Mrs. Su, Mr. Su is here!"

Everyone upstairs and downstairs gave him a shout!

The waiter finished shouting and left as if nothing had happened.Su Zhe turned his head when he heard the voice, and saw Xue Wanxiang, Yuzhi and Pingting looking at each other from a distance on the half-height steps.

The girl in red and the people at the table followed, and for a moment, everyone's eyes were filled with amazement and admiration, and even the girl's eyes lit up.

Xue Wanxiang collected herself, met everyone's gaze, and walked to Su Zhe's side.

Step by step for a lifetime of lotus.

Su Zhe frowned almost invisibly, Xue Wanxiang lowered his eyes, feeling a little sour in his heart.Su Zhe held back and didn't want to show too much concern, but he still couldn't hold back and said, "Why did you come down like this? Don't you wear a big coat?"

Her voice was not loud, and her tone was almost calm, but Xue Wanxiang heard the meaning of protection, which was sour and sweet for a while.

The girl in red rolled her eyes around the two of them and asked, "Who is this?"

Su Zhe coughed and introduced to Xue Wanxiang. These were her senior brothers from the same sect. The girl was naturally the junior junior sister she had mentioned several times, the only daughter of the head of the Junshan School, Cao Youqi.

Xue Wanxiang made a blessing to the group of people at the table, looked at the little junior sister calmly, and heard Su Zhe say: "This... this is Miss Xue, my friend who is traveling with me."

Only this sentence, nothing else.

Xue Wanxiang was stunned, suddenly her heart felt sour, and she almost shed tears.She used to say "my wife", these days she has become accustomed to it, and today she said that she is her friend, and she called her Miss Xue...

Under the wide sleeves, Xue Wanxiang clenched her slender hands into fists, her nails deeply embedded in her palms.After all the members of the Junshan faction greeted her, she lowered her head and said something tired, and went back to her room first, asking them to catch up on the past.

The brothers and sisters all stared at her back, and a young man praised: "This Miss Xue, she looks so good-looking. Do you know her very well, sister? Has she promised someone?"

Xue Wanxiang hadn't gone far, and these few words didn't avoid her at all.So Su Zhe's voice fell into her ears in a clear and shallow voice: "...she...has promised someone..."

Xue Wanxiang held on to the handrail of the stairs, her figure swaying slightly.

The bridle of the earth dragon was not turned on during the day, and the temperature gradually became colder. Xue Wanxiang went back to the guest house and closed the door, leaning against the door as if all her strength had been relieved.

My mind was chaotic, as if there were thousands of troops galloping, and it seemed that the backbone had been taken away, leaving it empty, with no support and no support.She slowly slid down to the wooden and stone floor, letting her thoughts go blank, and stayed there for a long time.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and she jumped up immediately in surprise. Expectation and surprise were written on her face when she opened the door, which made the guy with the charcoal stove outside the door stunned.

Xue Wanxiang's mood suddenly froze when she saw the person coming, she grabbed the wooden door with her hand to stand still, and asked, "What's the matter?"

The buddy came back to his senses, pointed to the charcoal stove and said, "It's too cold, so I brought you the stove. The earth dragon will only open at night."

Xue Wanxiang was silent for a moment, then asked who sent it.

The clerk scratched his head inexplicably, and replied: "Every upper room has it. The shopkeeper ordered it to be delivered."

The light in Xue Wanxiang's eyes dimmed, she took a step back to let him into the room, and seeing the gloomy sky outside the window, she asked casually, only to realize that she had been kneeling on the cold floor for more than two hours without knowing it.

The clerk put away the charcoal stove, beat Qianer and retreated, and closed the door for her.

Light blue flames danced and danced on the silvery white charcoal, and silence returned to the house.

Xue Wanxiang sat down propped up on the edge of the table and knelt on the cold hard floor for a long time. Her legs felt numb. After a while, she raised her hand and poured a cup of tea. The tea was cold, like poured water, like what she said.

The sky was getting dark little by little, Xue Wanxiang didn't light the lamp, the light in the house was getting darker and darker, the earth dragon quietly lit up, but Su Zhe still didn't come back.

Sitting at the pear wood table, she couldn't help thinking, where is Su Zhe at this time?Are you still with her fellow apprentices?Or, with her little junior sister?

If she was with her junior sister, what would she do with her?Does she remember that she was waiting in this house for her return?

She wants to go to Su Zhe, she wants to see her, she wants to have her by her side, even if she is angry and ignores her, as long as she is by her side and can be seen.

But what position does she have to find her?

She is no longer her "lady", she is just a friend who travels with her.

Su Zhe was indeed with Cao Youqi.It is one floor away from Xue Wanxiang, and there are several rooms.

The upper room is gone, and the junior brothers of the Junshan faction live in ordinary guest rooms, only one room is slightly larger, which is given to the younger junior sister.Su Zhe grew up with her since he was a child, and never saw her outside again.Last night's ups and downs, he was also terribly tired, and now he kicked his boots, lying on the bed and talking to Cao Youqi without saying a word.

Although Cao Youqi is a son and daughter of the Jianghu, he is favored by the Junshan faction, and he can barely be regarded as half a lady of the family. First, he freshened up and tidied up, and then asked Su Zhe, why is he dressed like this, and what about that beautiful Miss Xue? thing.

Su Zhe half-closed his eyes, picked up the main points of the matter, and said it in a few words, ignoring the entanglement between her and Xue Wanxiang, the matter was restored to be very simple: when she was in distress, she met Xue Guliang in distress, and the two ran together, and she was injured Xue Guliang took care of her, and when Xue Guliang fell ill, she asked a doctor for her help.

Roughly, so.

Cao Youqi listened while taking off the hair accessories on his head, always felt that something was wrong, but couldn't tell why for a while.She followed her father's temperament, so forthright, seeing that Su Zhe was too lazy to say more, she didn't bother to ask any more.Instead, he said casually: "You have been out for half a year, and your parents have missed you. After the Xuanwu Festival, you have to go back quickly." He pursed his lips and smiled: "When I went out, my mother told me that you and I will come out Now, I’m afraid the pipa will be put away. Play it to my father, it’s really playing the piano to the cow.”

Su Zhe had already dozed off, but when he heard this, he turned over again and watched her sit in front of the bronze mirror and pick off the earrings. "Speaking of playing the piano, I met a woman in Guangping City who played the Bawang Disarmor very well. You know, this is a martial arts song. I have been floating outside for so long, but I have never seen a woman who can play this song So well done."

"Oh?" Cao Youqi took off half of the earrings, stopped his hands and turned his head, raising his eyebrows: "Is it better than me?"

Su Zhe thought about it seriously, and replied after a long while: "It's hard to tell Xuan Jin apart."

Her tone was honest and honest, Cao Youqi snorted, took off the other earring, and sat down on the edge of the couch in only his jacket: "What's the girl's name? Where did you meet her?"

It happened less than half a year ago, and the words Wufenglou came to mind, it was just a pipa player... Su Zhe thought for a while with his arms on his pillow, before he remembered Liu Qingqing's name.

"Guangping City, Wufeng Tower, Liu Qingqing." Cao Youqi lay on the bed muttering, and suddenly found that Su Zhe was still lying there, she kicked her: "Go back to your room! Miss Ben is going to sleep!"

There are lanterns hanging in the corridor of the inn, and a little orange light is reflected through the door.Xue Wanxiang fell asleep lying on the table, and vaguely felt being picked up by someone, and gently put her on the bed.

The warmth in her embrace was too familiar, she was really sleepy, she still tried her best to open her eyes, and saw Su Zhe standing by the bed, looking at her with a half-smile.

"Azhe..." She called out in a low voice, her words filled with grievances: "Why did you come back? I have been waiting for you for a long time..."

Su Zhedao sat down on the edge of the bed, stretched his long legs, and looked back at her: "How long?"

Xue Wanxiang couldn't answer, so she rushed over to grab her hand coquettishly: "It's been a long, long time. I thought you wouldn't come back."

"Where am I going if I don't come back?"

An ordinary sentence somehow touched Xue Wanxiang's mind. She hugged her waist sorely, her eyes were red: "You are not allowed to go anywhere. You are only allowed to be with me."

She had never said such a blunt word, and her face was pink and hot.

Su Zhe picked her chin and smiled wickedly: "With you? What are you doing together?"

Xue Wanxiang raised her head on her fingertips, her eyes were misty with a thin layer of watery light.

Su Zhe's heart ached so much, he hugged her in his arms around her soft waist, and his lips touched hers.

Xue Wanxiang's heart was pounding, she closed her eyes in joy, and let her wreak havoc. Gradually, Su Zhe's kisses became more and more intense and entangled. The dexterous tip of her tongue came in and curled her timid little tongue, wrapping it around her. She brought it into her mouth.

"Hmm..." Xue Wanxiang hummed softly.

The temperature on the bed was slowly burning, Xue Wanxiang was tossing and turning, clasping Su Zhe's sleeves with her small hands, expecting Su Zhe's hug with all her heart.

"Azhe..." She wrapped her arms around her neck and whispered to her.

Su Zhe still kissed her cheeks, her lips, and even her palms unhurriedly.

No further.

Xue Wanxiang suddenly remembered that it wasn't that Su Zhe didn't want to, it was that she had rejected her.

"Azhe..." She took her hand and covered the intricate lapel pattern of the skirt, she wanted to tell her that she would not push her away again.

The cold wind in the deep winter came in from the outside of the house, blowing the window and making a noise. Xue Wanxiang looked at the window in surprise. It was already dark, and she was still sitting at the pear wood table with ice-cold tea in her hand. .

Xue Wanxiang stared at the window fixedly, tears streaming down silently.

That night, Su Zhe did not come back after all.
