Green Lantern Bond

Thoughts tossed and turned all night, Chongyun did not sleep peacefully.

The next day, Wu Xi brought a group of men down to bid farewell to Chongyun: "My lord, this subordinate will take people back to report to you. You are here alone, please take care of yourself, and remember to bring your umbrella with you at all times."

Chongyun nodded: "Understood, you go back and tell Wulan, I will bring him a gift back in a few days."

"Yes."

A group of people were about to retreat when they heard a servant announce "Fifth Young Master is here". When they looked around, they saw Gong Ruxue walking in from the outside.Seeing that a large group of people had packed their bags and stayed in Chongyun's room, he asked, "Everyone, are you... leaving?"

"Exactly." Wu Xi nodded and bowed to Gong Ruxue, "Since the matter here has been dealt with, it's time for us to go back. Young Master Gong, my son rarely leaves the ghost world. I'm not very clear about the rules of etiquette, if there is any impoliteness, I ask Young Master Gong to bear with me."

"It's natural."

After Wu Xi finished his explanation, he said goodbye to the two of them, and left with them.

Gong Ruxue saw that Chongyun had just gotten up but looked tired, so she asked, "Brother Chongyun isn't used to sleeping here?"

"No, I slept very comfortably here. It's just that I was thinking about something, so..." Chong Yun has always been straightforward, and he doesn't have too many falsehoods about making friends.

Gong Ruxue nodded in understanding, then recalled her purpose, and asked, "Liu Hanyi came to look for you early in the morning, if you still want to rest for a while, I'll tell him to go back first and come back in the afternoon."

"No need. I'm here as a guest, and it would be rude to delay getting up."

When Chongyun got up, a maid brought him brand new clothes and helped him to freshen up.Gong Ruxue stood aside and looked at Chongyun quietly, and when he saw him wearing a sky-blue robe, his whole body immediately became a bit more energetic.

Gong Ruxue's usually indifferent face also showed a bit of strangeness, his mouth moved, and he said after a long while: "I saw you yesterday, and I thought you were wearing a black dress that was too deep, so I chose this for you on my own initiative." The clothes now seem to be suitable."

Chongyun turned around and said with a smile: "When I was in the ghost world, I never thought about what clothes to wear."

"Why?"

"The ghost world is different from the outside here. It's like night all year round, and it's pitch black everywhere. What's the use of dressing nicely? No one will pay attention to these things." Chongyun recalled all kinds of things in the ghost world, thinking about himself After staying there for more than ten years, there is still an unaccustomed feeling.

Some things don't become natural after a long time.

Gong Ruxue glanced at him with an inexplicable expression, and was about to say something when she heard a loud shout from the outer courtyard.

"Fifth Brother! I heard that you brought a guest back, can you let Brother Wei take a look?!" The voice came from far to near, and before the two of them could respond, a person came in from outside the door.

The man was of medium build, with a full face, broom eyebrows, and two small, narrow eyes that were shining brightly, giving him a fierce look.He was dressed in white, and the style of his clothes was similar to Gong Ruxue's, but upon closer inspection, there was a big difference.The man's robe was trimmed with gold piping, and the hibiscus flowers embroidered with gold silk were in full bloom at the hem of the robe. This was the "Furong Snow Clothes" that only the orthodox children of the Gong family were eligible to wear.

When Gong Ruxue saw the visitor, his icy face turned cold again. He looked at the visitor with some displeasure: "Brother, why are you so rude? You barged in without permission!"

Gong Ruxue's elder brother, Gong Yuebai, laughed nonchalantly: "I still need permission to enter my house? Fifth brother, do you think everyone is like you?"

One sentence directly pointed out the difference in status between him and Gong Ruxue, Gong Ruxue's clear eyes were filled with frost, and he said coldly: "Get out!"

"What did you say?!" Gong Yuebai suspected that he had heard it wrong. Although Gong Ruxue was indifferent, she always respected her elders in the Gong family. Now, he dared to order him?Or in front of an outsider?

Gong Ruxue said coldly: "I said, please go out, brother."

Gong Yuebai looked at his fifth younger brother in disbelief, and smiled angrily: "Gong Ruxue, what identity do you think you are talking to me? You'd better find out, even if the old man of the Gong family is gone now, it's not their turn." Seeing an illegitimate child meddling in my affairs?!"

He was probably really angry, and even the news that Mrs. Gong was strictly guarded against telling it was easily exposed to an outsider.

The chill on Gong Ruxue's face was even worse, but it was rare that there was no trace of anger. He was as calm as an emotionless wooden sculpture, but Chong Yun standing beside him could easily feel the turbulent waves under the chill: "Brother, You made three mistakes today. First, you, as the host, broke into the guest’s room without proper etiquette. Second, Erniang ordered you not to mention the matter of father’s death long ago, but you wantonly brought it up in front of the guests, violating the order ;Third, the foundation of a family is "harmony", but you stir up anger among each other, causing a gap between us brothers, which violates the family precepts. Three crimes count together, big brother, as a younger brother, I advise you Now go to the ancestral hall to admit your mistake and receive the punishment, don't let our Gong family lose face in front of the guests."

He finished speaking word by word, only to see Gong Yuebai's face became more and more ugly, and when the last word fell, Gong Yuebai was furious, and slapped Gong Ruxue with a palm: "You are looking for death! How dare you teach me?!"

Gong Ruxue deftly dodged his palm wind with a dodge, then raised her hand to easily receive the subsequent punch, and said coldly: "If you can't say it, do it. That's how my father taught you? Where did it go?"

"Hmph! When will it be your turn to discipline me as an illegitimate son? I will teach you a lesson today so that you know what it means to respect your elder brother!"

Gong Yuebai kept on palming, originally his cultivation base was lower than Gong Ruxue's, but Gong Ruxue didn't want to entangle with him too much at this time, and only acted defensively, so the two gradually drew a tie.

The tables and chairs in the room were damaged by the sudden fight, and all of them were turned into pieces, leaving the room in a mess.

Chongyun on the side rubbed his nose in embarrassment, he was a little speechless in the face of this accident, he couldn't understand how this farce happened, but since Gong Ruxue has become his friend, he can't just sit here and watch Watching Gong Ruxue fight with others while he himself does nothing.

Chong Yun dodged to join the battle, he was as fast as the wind, his body turned into an afterimage, and he tapped Gong Yuebai's shoulder twice in a flash, Gong Yuebo froze in place immediately.

"You!" When Gong Yuebai was in the midst of a fierce battle, someone suddenly tapped his acupoints, and he suddenly became angry. Being confiscated by the government is really depressing.

Seeing that Gong Yuebai was finally forced to stop, Gong Ruxue secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and immediately stopped.He didn't want to entangle too much, this is in the Gong family, not to mention that his own identity is not considered to be of status in the Gong family, let alone there are guests present, let people see this farce, what kind of dignity In the end, it was the Gong family who lost face.

Gong Yuebai tried to break through the acupoints by himself but couldn't, his face was flushed red, he was angry and anxious: "Untie it for me quickly!"

Gong Ruxue opened her mouth, and was about to say something when Chong Yun raised her hand to stop her, and only heard him say: "Master Gong, Axue is my friend, you said you wanted to teach him a lesson in front of me, so I will Not too happy."

"What? You, an outsider, still want to meddle in my Gong family's affairs?"

Chongyun unhurriedly lowered his head to tidy up the folds of his clothes, raised his head and smiled at him: "Although I am an outsider, I have always had a habit of never treating myself as an outsider. It's my friend, my friend's business is my business, why can't I interfere?"

Gong Ruxue took a deep look at him, but she didn't say anything after all.

Chongyun gave him a reassuring look, and said to Gong Yuebo: "Young Master Gong came to see me today, since you saw me, you can leave."

After he finished speaking, seeing Gong Yuebai's face was full of anger, and his eyes seemed to burst into flames, Chongyun pretended to be surprised and said: "Ah, I forgot, Young Master Gong has been acupointed now, and it seems that he can't leave for the time being That's it. Then A Xue and I will leave first, thank you very much, Young Master Gong, for making a special trip to see me today."

Seeing Chongyun holding Gong Ruxue and leaving without hesitation, Gong Yuebai shouted angrily, "You bastard! Stop!"

"The acupoints will unravel by themselves in half an hour. Before that, I have no choice but to wrong Master Gong." After Chong Yun said leisurely, he disappeared.

The two left Fengluzhai, Gong Ruxue said: "What happened just now made you laugh."

Chong Yun glanced at him, saw that his expression was normal, his eyes shone slightly, and he seemed to have some unknown emotions, so he said: "It's nothing, every family has difficult scriptures to recite."

Gong Ruxue twitched the corners of her mouth, showing a smile that was not a smile, he seemed not used to this kind of expression, quickly lowered the corners of her mouth unnaturally, pursed her lips, and said: "He originally wanted to win you over. "

"...???" Chong Yun was a little puzzled.

Gong Ruxue said again: "He wants to win over all my friends, so even if I don't want to, I have to do things for him."

"Is Liu Hanyi the same?" Chong Yun asked.

Gong Ruxue thought for a while, as if recalling the past, her expression was a little loose, and he said: "It was the same at the beginning, but my second mother doesn't like him for some reason, so he doesn't come to the house as a guest very often. Meet outside, my elder brother can't see him, so naturally he gave up."

Chongyun nodded in understanding, and said with a smile, "Why didn't Young Master Gong come to win you over directly? Do you have to do such a thankless thing?"

"Of course it's because of my status, which makes him feel that his status is different." Gong Ruxue lowered his eyes, and Chong Yun couldn't see his expression clearly for a while, so he only heard him say, "But the friends I make will not all be useless. If he wins over these people, he can become his help, and he can also become a condition to restrict me, and he doesn't have to condescend to build a good relationship with me, so why not do it?"

Hearing this, Chongyun was silent for a while, sighed lightly, and patted him on the shoulder: "Since life is so difficult, why bother yourself, you must stay at this home?"

Gong Ruxue was silent for a long time before saying: "I didn't make things difficult for myself. Before, it was just because my father was still alive. I followed my mother's last wish to stay by his side. Now..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but Chongyun already understood what he meant, and he smiled: "You are always welcome in the ghost world."

Gong Ruxue raised her eyes to look at him, and there was a ripple in her calm voice: "You are so strange, we just knew each other."

"Hey, do you need to consider so much when making friends? Since I have identified you as a friend, why should I care about the length of time I have known you?"

Gong Ruxue's indifferent expression softened a bit: "Are you always making friends this quickly?"

"It can be fast or slow, it's still a scorer." Chongyun narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, as if recalling a long time ago, a faint nostalgia welled up in his eyes, and there was a bit of unexplainable sadness, he paused After a pause, he said, "In the past, there was such a person. I regarded him as a life-and-death friend. Unfortunately, he only regarded me as an ordinary friend. It's really sad."

Gong Ruxue was aroused by his words, and was about to ask a few more questions, when she heard a complaining voice: "Are you two talking about love? Why are you so slow?!"
