The Chapter of Bo Yinggui Autumn - "Malicious" Tampering

"have you slept?"

A warm voice came from outside the door, revealing a little hesitation.Ling Zi got up and opened the paper door, then sat back on the laid quilt: "Not yet, come in~"

"Why, you're so tired today, don't you go to bed early?"

"I can't sleep for some reason, maybe it's because I was a little excited when I came back. But, don't you come to disturb me because you know that I'm not asleep? Otherwise, why are you asking! Zuo Zhi, you are also not asleep."

"I'm worried that you're not used to falling asleep when you come back, so let's see if you need my help." He sat casually on the tatami.

"Let me just say, Zuo Zhi is as gentle as ever~ However, it feels like you didn't talk much tonight. Ah, that's right, I was the one who was nagging, and those who heard about these things for the first time The guy asked back and forth. I miss your voice so much, I feel as if I have been healed when I hear it..." She showed the most comfortable smile she hadn't seen in a long time.

"Then just listen to it every day~" Zuo Zhi also smiled back.But within two seconds, he put on a slightly painful expression, and his tone became serious, hesitantly asked: "Lingzi, what are we now..."

Ling Azusa opened her eyes slightly, but quickly recovered her expression.Unexpectedly, he was struggling with this.It's time to take this step, Ling Zi slowly moved to the left, so close that she could see her figure in his eyes: "Always remember what I said! Fool... Didn't I say it before... You It's my man."

Suddenly, Zuozhi straightened his body, pushed Lingzi down on the bed, and pressed his lips against her pink lips like cherry blossoms.Different from the gentle him in his memory, this time he swam and sucked in her mouth with a bit of arrogance.Azusa felt that her lips were going to be swollen from kisses, and tried to push him away with her arms to give herself some time to breathe.But before she could exert all her strength, Zuo Zhi grabbed her both hands, and with only one hand, she held her arms above her head and couldn't move.But fortunately, he quickly stopped the passionate kiss, lifted his head slightly out of breath, and looked deeply into her eyes, full of love and reluctance.Another free hand gently caressed her face.

"Why don't you just tell me and leave... If it's what you think is right, I won't stop you. Even though it will be painful for me to leave you...but I will respect your decision. You know I have How scared? It seems like I will never see you again... I didn't even say a decent goodbye to you... I don't want to believe it, or I have been lying to myself, 'she didn't leave, she just had Things need to go away for two days, and she probably just forgot to tell everyone.' That's what I thought, so I always, always, always dare not be sad."

"The Left..."

He put his finger on her lips, sealing her words. "I miss you so much... I want to see you again, I want to see you again. I want to tell you, I love you. I regret not saying this to you earlier, regret not telling you more times. I love you."

She nodded, indicating that she understood.

"It's really great that you can come back... I'm so worried that I did something wrong, and I'm so worried that you left because of something you have to bear. In that case, I, who failed to protect you, are really the worst man It's gone!" He moved his finger away, and kissed her lightly again, this time the kiss was long and affectionate, making it hard for Lingzi to extricate herself.

Taking advantage of the gap between kisses, Lingzi comforted him: "Don't say that kind of thing, why am I the worst man. It's my fault for not telling you, so you should blame me severely, don't always think about protecting me. I also want to protect you, it's because I didn't protect you well that made you suffer so much..."

"No, this time I won't allow you to be so capricious again. After experiencing mistakes and recovering, I know that I should cherish them, and I really have to rely on myself. Maybe you think I despise women, but no matter what, I swear to protect you, the one I love, It must be realized. I will not let you go again! You are my woman, and you are not allowed to be stronger. If there is any burden, I will bear it for you. "

"You guy, machismo! I hate this kind of man the most!" Lingzi pretended to be sullen. Although she really thought so, she couldn't get angry with him now.

"Hate...do you...then, what about this? Do you still hate me..." Zuo Zhi's words suddenly became ambiguous, with desire rippling in his voice.

……

The next day, Azusa opened her eyes under the sunlight shining into the house.After waking up for a while, he met Zuo Zhi's water-like eyes. "Good morning~"

"Wow, I'm so happy... I can see you, hear your voice, and feel your body temperature when I wake up. I'm so happy~ After all, how can you be so nice!" Lingzi was not stingy own words of praise.

"You are really... How should I put it! You are so attractive~ I would be proud if I said that." Zuo Zhi pinched her nose.Do most people say compliments so bluntly?However, she is such a girl who is different from ordinary people.

After lying tenderly for a while, they were finally willing to get up, otherwise they would have delayed their normal work.After getting dressed, Ling Zi was going to ask if there was anything she could do to help, while Zuo Zhi went out to make preparations for the patrol.Unexpectedly, as soon as they opened the door, they saw Tufang walking towards Lingzi's room just around the corner.

The three people's eyes met, and the atmosphere was a bit strange for some reason.Lingzi understood that Hijikata must have seen them come out of his room together.

"Tufang-san, did you come to Lingzi to see her?" Zuo Zhi asked nonchalantly.

"Ah, I want to ask her how she was resting yesterday." Now it seems that she should be resting well, and the flushed face is his favorite appearance of her. "Didn't you say yesterday that you will have to do logistics in the future, so..." Some thoughts that should not have appeared in my mind.

"Ha, that's right. I'm also going to see you, deputy chief, to see if I'll still cook for you in the future. It's just that I haven't cooked for you for a long time, so I may be unfamiliar. But, what's the matter?" I don't do clothes and the like! Hehe..." Lingzi smiled playfully, but fortunately Hijikata was not angry.What she was worried about was whether the matter between her and Zuozhi would be banned by him because he thought it would have a bad influence on the atmosphere of the Shinsengumi.Since he pretended not to know, it should be regarded as acquiescence.

"After you left, everyone's food level has dropped a lot. I think it's perfect for Lingzi to cook. Since she can't be a team member now, she will definitely not be allowed to return to Shimabara to make money as a geisha." , So, this is killing multiple birds with one stone!" Zuo Zhi echoed.

"Hello!" Ling Zi shuddered, just now Zuo Zhi had inadvertently left out what happened to her in Shimabara!She touched Zuo Zhi with her elbow, and hinted with her eyes that he had said something wrong, and quickly found a way to make it up. Tufang-sang was not someone else, so she would not have missed this sentence.

"There's no need to hide it. We all already knew about you working as a geisha in Shimabara." Hijikata could finally feel the feeling of panic that made Ling Azusa this time.

"Ah... Hey? Hey!!! You said you already knew?" Her eyes widened. "But..." Why didn't she notice it at all.

"At that time, you were often invisible, and then you suddenly had so much money. It would be strange if we didn't pay attention." Tu Fang concealed the whole process of Zuo Zhi telling them this matter.

"Okay..." Sure enough, they were the most gentle guys. "I don't need to go to Shimabara now, I already have enough money, haha~"

"What do you mean?"

"The biggest advantage of being at Sakamoto before was that I could make money there. As a consultant, I was paid every day! At the same time, I used the money to invest in his business, and I made a lot of money easily. .”

After bragging about her accomplishments, Azusa ran to the kitchen.Zuozhi and Hijikata went back to the assembly hall together.

"Zuo Zhi." Tu Fang seemed to have made up his mind, and after the silence all the way, he finally opened his mouth. "Treasure her well."

"Yeah." There was no extra words between the two men, and a brief conversation sorted out all the situations.

After the return of Ayazusa, life resumed its daily life.She worked tirelessly to improve everyone's food, especially for Okita, she refused to eat anything that was too salty or too sweet, and whenever she saw him, she would ask him if he felt any discomfort.On this day, Pingzhu went to the kitchen to help Lingzi prepare dinner. "By the way, you've been too partial to the chief executive lately, aren't you afraid that Brother Zuo will be jealous?"

"There's nothing to be jealous about! The chief executive's illness has never healed, so he needs extra care." She only knows that the chief executive's illness, even if it is incurable at the moment, if it can be controlled and cultivated earlier, It's not going to get worse that fast.As long as there is time, there may be a way.After all, I met some doctors when I was in Sakamoto, and I have been researching medicines with the help of the future medical knowledge she provided. However, due to hardware constraints, it is still impossible to succeed in a short time.Before she succeeds, she must ensure that Okita is as healthy as possible.

"Well... Brother Zuozhi doesn't seem to be worried anyway." Hirasuke glanced at her slightly, and said hesitantly: "Well... before, before you left, didn't you tell me something? do you remember?"

"Huh? Ah, that's what you said! Of course I remember."

"Although I didn't understand it before, I still have some scruples and have been doing what you said. Now that I know your identity, I naturally understand a little bit what you said at that time. But... there is a problem... Even if I Ito-san was not introduced to Kondo-san, and they seem to know each other. A few days ago, Kondo-san entrusted me with this matter... What should I do?" Since she refused to let Ito come, it means that he is very interested in the new election. Group is not a good choice.

But she didn't take it seriously, and comforted the sad Heisuke with a cheerful face: "Actually, I don't know what is right anymore. It seems that no matter what happens in the future, there will be a direction that cannot be changed by manpower. For example, this matter, since they We are destined to meet each other, so we might as well let nature take its course. Perhaps, everything has already changed, or, if it cannot be changed, no matter how hard we try, it will be useless."

"Too……"

"Okay, don't think too much about it. Come and pack up this soup and serve it to everyone! My side is almost ready~ ready to serve!"

Indeed, she didn't know what was the right thing to do.But she no longer tried to turn things around, but guarded them with meager strength, even if she could only see death coming.

In this way, Ito still entered the Shinsengumi, and Sannan-san's role naturally became smaller because of his joining, and he concentrated more on studying Bian Ruoshui.Although they knew the essence of that thing, the Aizu clan began to urge them to study again because there was no restriction.Lingzi didn't say much after knowing it, as long as they didn't take it, she could accept it.It's just that Ito can't know.After all, he is still an outsider.

Because of the expansion of the Shinsengumi, the original garrison could no longer hold so many people. Everyone held a meeting to discuss where to move the garrison.In order not to let Shannan-san feel that his opinion is not as important as the newcomer Ito, Azusa gave a choice first: "How about Nishi Honganji?"

"It's really good there, but I've always wondered, you are not a team member, why can you participate in this meeting?" Ito didn't know her situation, only knew that there was a woman in the Shinsengumi, and everyone was very excited. Listen to her.

"It's like this, Ito Sansan, she has been with us all the time, and she knows the situation in the group very well, and she is also very smart, so we will bring her with us when we have meetings, and listen to other people's opinions. !” Kondo made a rescue.

"That's right, I'm here as their unofficial adviser~" She intended to take care of Shannan-san's emotions, and if anyone wanted to find something, she would accompany her.

Ito, who was stared at directly, weakened his momentum, but he refused to show weakness: "A woman, can be a staff officer? Kondo-san, you are too foolish."

"You can't say that, Ito-san. You know, you can come to the Shinsengumi, but it's thanks to this person, don't you think so, Hirasuke?" Okita said this sentence for others.

"That's right... Azusa also recognizes your ability very much. Didn't you just say that, you also agree with her proposal." Hirasuke felt a little embarrassed.

It wasn't the first time Ito felt annoyed that no one was helping him here.Sure enough, if you have different ideas, you can’t cooperate?

"Okay, since we are here to discuss the relocation of the settlement, let's get down to business. Do you have any objections to Nishi Honganji Temple?" It turned out that Shannan-san took the initiative to bring the topic back.For some reason, Ling Zi felt a little uneasy.Perhaps it was experience. Whenever things changed according to her wishes, the visible results always showed that important things would happen no matter what, and even the results were not as good as before.
