After leaving the town, as Meng Zhenzhi said, they walked for two days and never came across villages or towns. There was not even a post on the way to rest.

Chu Yu didn't think there was anything wrong with not being able to take a good rest, but not being able to take a bath made him feel uncomfortable, and he couldn't sleep well at night in the carriage.

Although Meng Zhenzhi didn't say anything, he actually wanted to check on Chu Yu's situation from time to time, but for some reason, after he came out of the inn, Chu Yu's attitude seemed to become a little cold again, and he didn't like to talk.

On the third day, I finally saw the crowds. In fact, it was just a post booth, and there were very few people coming and going, but this is also worthy of gratitude.

After taking a hot bath, Chu Yu finally came back to life. She walked sideways around the screen, and the whole room was still filled with heat. A bowl of ginger tea was prepared on the table to keep the guests away from the cold.

He pushed back his still wet hair, walked to the table and took a sip of tea, his limbs stretched out.

There were a few knocks on the door, opened the door, Jiang Xing was standing outside the door with some embarrassment, "Did I bother you?"

Chu Yu quickly shook his head, "No, what's the matter?"

He tugged his sleeves anxiously, "It's okay, that's it"

Chu Yu turned sideways, "Let's talk first."

Chu Yu's room was still slightly humid, Jiang Xing just sat down and stood up immediately, "Did I bother you, I'll come back later"

"No need," Chu Yu hurriedly pushed him down on the seat, "I've already washed up, so feel free to talk about anything."

Jiang Xing's eyelashes trembled uneasily, and Chu Yu realized that the white strips he used to cover his eyes were gone.

Hearing Chu Yu's question, he hurriedly said, "It got wet, so I took it to wash, but it's not dry yet."

Chu Yu nodded.

The young man indeed had a good appearance, although he was particularly thin, his body was as tough as wicker. At this time, his eyelashes fell on his eyes like two small fans, making him very cute.

He hesitated and said, "My mother left me a piece of jade before she was alive. She said it was a token of my recognition with my uncle. I kept it with me all the time. I couldn't find it after I just washed it. I still want to ask about it. Brother Yu, can you look for it for me?"

When Chu Yu heard this, she stood up anxiously, "Then go find it quickly, if you lose it, it will be a big deal."

Seeing what he said, Jiang Xing couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled, revealing two dimples. Soon, he frowned again, "It's really embarrassing to have to trouble you every time."

Chu Yu got up to help him, and urged him dumbfounded, "Don't say such things now, and hurry up to get the jade pendant back, it will be troublesome if you lose it."

When he came to the cubicle where Jiang Xing was resting, Chu Yu searched for a while and found no jade pendants, so he subconsciously asked, "What does your jade look like?"

After asking, he knocked his head again in frustration.

Since Jiang Xing couldn't see, how could he know what that jade looked like.

Unexpected Jiang Xing frowned and thought for a while, "It's a piece of bluestone, round and transparent, with a spot of chicken blood red on it, and a red orchid knot tied on the lower ring."

Chu Yu was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyes calmly, said "Oh", and continued to search.

Jiang Xing didn't notice anything wrong with the other party. He closed his eyes and touched Chu Yu for a while. Next to Chu Yu, he suddenly felt a wet hand, and asked with concern, "Why is your hair still wet? It's easy to catch cold this day." .”

Chu Yu brushed her wet hair indifferently, "It's okay, it will be dry in a while."

Jiang Xing frowned, closed his eyes and touched a dry cloth, without any explanation, he pushed him to the side of the bed, asked him to sit down, and he sat next to him, helping him to brush his hair.

His voice was as gentle as the movement of his hands, "If you are sick because of me, then I really don't know what to do."

Chu Yu is not used to being so intimate with people, but when he thought that he had good intentions and was an extremely sensitive person, if he refused, he might have to think too much, so he let him act helplessly.

Jiang Xing brushed his hair silently, Chu Yu just wanted to get things done as soon as possible, and didn't have anything to say, the atmosphere was quiet and depressing.

Chu Yu hadn't slept well in the past few days, but now she felt drowsy.

I don't know if it's because of selling flowers all the year round, Jiang Xing always has a faint fragrance that makes people inexplicable, just like him.

Just when he was about to fall asleep leaning against Jiang Xing, he suddenly felt the person behind him move, and shouted in a low voice, "Is it Brother Meng?"

Chu Yu opened his eyes, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and found Meng Zhenzhi standing at the door, looking at him with a half-smile.

He walked in, looked down at Chu Yu, and asked, "Why don't you go back to sleep when you're sleepy?"

Chu Yu got up and rubbed her temples, "Brother Xing's jade can't be found, I'll look for it for him."

"Oh? Is that so?" Meng Zhenzhi raised his eyebrows, his words were a little sly, and he looked at Jiang Xing with a smirk, "Why don't you come to me if you have such a thing, your brother Meng likes to help others the most. "

Jiang Xing's face remained unchanged, as if he didn't notice his emotions, he smiled embarrassedly, "Brother Meng didn't seem to be there just now, so I went to trouble Brother Yu."

"Huh?" Chu Yu turned her head and frowned at Meng Zhenzhi, "Where did you go again?"

Meng Zhenzhi choked, glared at Jiang Xing secretly, and guiltily opened his fan to cover half of his face, hesitating, "No, just stroll around."

Chu Yu didn't let him fool him, and stared at him with burning eyes, "Did you sneak away to drink again?"

Meng Zhenzhi yelled that he was wronged, "Aside from hot water, where does the wine come from? Don't open your mouth to slander me."

Chu Yu sneered a few times, "Look, you're not pretending to be self-inflicted, you really went to find a drink secretly, right?"

Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Meng Zhenzhi simply spread his hands openly, as if he was brazen enough to let Chu Yu say what he said, which made Chu Yu's teeth itch with hatred.

The people next to him laughed a few times.

Chu Yu turned his head and looked at him strangely.

Jiang Xing shook his head, "It's nothing, I'm just a little envious of you, I've never had such good friends of the same age."

As he spoke, he showed a somewhat lonely expression again, "Because of my eye disease since I was a child, no one wanted to play with me, but now that I'm older, I can see it."

Chu Yu frowned, not knowing how to comfort him.

Meng Zhenzhi stood aside, grinning with sour teeth.

When he first came in, he saw Chu Yu lying in the man's arms looking defenseless, wiping his hair but restless hands, relying on Chu Yu not paying attention, he secretly touched the back of his neck.

He just wanted to pick up Chu Yu and shake it, so that he could see the real face of this person clearly.

"So, did you find Jade?"

Really couldn't stand it anymore, Meng Zhenzhi forcibly interrupted their conversation.

Only then did Chu Yu remember the business, and sat up straight, "I almost forgot the business, but I haven't, so look for it quickly."

Sweeping his hand carelessly on the couch, his fingers touched something icy and cold. He picked it up and saw that it was a piece of bluestone.

This jade is the same as what Jiang Xing described, there is a chicken blood spot the size of a fingernail on it, as if a drop of blood has melted into the jade, the unpretentious stone has a strange beauty.

He quickly stuffed the stone into Jiang Xing's hand, "Is this what you're looking for?"

Jiang Xing frowned and touched a few times. Soon, his brows relaxed, and the corners of his mouth were filled with joy. He nodded, "That's right, this is it."

He smiled gratefully at Chu Yu, "Thank you."

Chu Yu glanced at the strange piece of jade a few more times, then quickly looked away and shook her head, "Since I found it, I'll go back first."

Jiang Xing nodded, "Okay."

Chu Yu stood up, and the cloth covering his head to wipe his hair fell off and landed on Jiang Xing's lap.

Jiang Xing gripped the damp cloth tightly, "Leave this to me."

Chu Yu originally wanted to take it away and have someone wash it for him. Since he said so, he couldn't say anything more, so he nodded, "Then I won't disturb your rest."

"How long are you going to talk about?"

Meng Zhenzhi interrupted impatiently, lifted Chu Yu by the back of the neck and lifted him out, and closed the door for Jiang Xing with a snap.

Jiang Xing sat alone in the room, holding a cloth in his hand that could still smell the scent of saponins from Chu Yu's hair, listening to the noise of people outside the door, he suddenly felt a little lonely.

It is clear that he has come here alone for so many years.

He sighed.

Outside the door, Chu Yu broke free from Meng Zhenzhi's grasp, and went back to the room without saying a word.

Originally, he wanted to shut Meng Zhenzhi out of the door, but he was caught by a leg just as he was about to close the door, and then Meng Zhenzhi squeezed in with his whole body.

Chu Yu looked at him helplessly, "What are you going to do again?"

After squeezing in, Meng Zhenzhi roguely sat down at his table, "If I don't look for you, are you going to keep refusing to talk to me like this? Tell me, why are you being so petty?"

Chu Yu glanced at him inexplicably, "When will I make trouble again?"

Meng Zhenzhi smiled and pointed at the table, "That day at the inn, did you hear me talking with Da Zhuang outside?"

Seeing him speak out, Chu Yu turned her face away, "I didn't do it on purpose, since I said something shameful, then I should understand the truth that walls have ears."

Meng Zhenzhi pondered for a while and nodded, "Then you still say you didn't lose your temper?"

Chu Yu was speechless for a moment.

He didn't like to be described by him with such words, as if he was treated as an ignorant child.

Meng Zhenzhi sighed, walked around the table and walked to him, suddenly lifted his robe, and knelt down at Chu Yu's feet, "Your Majesty has indeed concealed the matter from the Sixth Prince, and I ask His Highness the Sixth Prince to punish you."

Before Chu Yu could speak, he stood up on his own, bent down to face Chu Yu with a smile, and winked at Chu Yu, "However, I know my mistakes and don't correct them."

Chu Yu was amused by his appearance, and her anger subsided a lot. Suddenly, she didn't seem to be very attached to what they were talking about and what they were hiding.

He kicked Meng Zhenzhi's leg, "Have you acted enough?"

Seeing that he finally smiled, Meng Zhenzhi also heaved a sigh of relief, and changed into that foolish look again, lazily saying, "His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince is really uncertain, so what can I do? Isn't it coaxing? "

I thought Chu Yu was going to scold him again, but I didn't expect him to blink, and followed his words seriously, "Yeah, I'm so uncertain, what can you do except coax me?"

The two looked at each other for a while, then suddenly smiled at each other.
