The two of them didn't speak for a long time.

Until a cold night wind blew, the girl's hood was a little tilted.

The man who had been silent for a long time finally took a step forward.

He reached out and pulled Ruan Mingzi's hood.

Ruan Mingzi looked straight at the man, but she did not retreat this time.

But the hand that also closed the hood was tighter and tighter the edge of the hood.

The two were very close, so close that Huan Baiyu could meet Ruan Mingzi as soon as he lowered his head.

Ruan Mingzi took a deep breath and was about to ask him what he was going to do when he heard the indifferent and heartless man speak first.

He said in a low voice: "Does the wound still hurt?"

Ruan Mingzi's whole body stiffened for a moment.

I think it is what Qi Ming Batong told him.

But why did he come over and ask her about this?

How could it not hurt?

But she doesn't like to let others worry about her situation. Anyway, worrying is useless, it just adds to others' worries.

It would be better to just say it doesn’t hurt, it’s okay, just cover it up.

But when she faced Huan Baiyu, the words "do not hurt" were never spoken.

However, she was a little unwilling to let her say what she thought directly.

Why?

Huan Baiyu never said differently to her, what was he thinking in his heart, and why did she tell him what was hidden in her heart?

Thinking of this, Ruan Mingzi looked slightly cold and still did not retreat. She just turned her head slightly and refused to look at Huan Baiyu.

"Thanks to your Highness's concern." She looked at one side unfamiliarly and indifferently, her eyes did not fall on Huan Baiyu, "A little injury is not worth mentioning."

The two of them fell into silence again.

In the yard, when Qining heard the movement coming out to see the situation, she couldn't help but sigh.

She might not have noticed Mingzi herself. Although she said she had nothing to do with Huan Baiyu, she had already thrown him behind her.

But she treated him differently from others.

Very different.

Huan Baiyu was originally a cold and taciturn person, and Ruan Mingzi, who has always been understanding, was unwilling to speak at this moment, and did not want to speak to Huan Baiyu.

The two of them were in such a stalemate for a long time.

Until Ruan Mingzi subconsciously shivered.

Huan Baiyu seemed to suddenly wake up something, took out a bottle of golden sore medicine from his arms and handed it to Ruan Mingzi: "Pick it up, go in."

Ruan Mingzi stared at the bottle of golden sore medicine, took a deep breath, and suppressed the stuffy air in her chest.

Perhaps due to emotional fluctuations, her voice was slightly different, "You don't need to give it to me. Batong gave me a lot before, I have it."

Huan Baiyu's eyes were cold, his thin lips were slightly pursed, and there was no expression on his face.

He knew he didn't have to come.

But for some reason, if he didn't come this time, he would always feel... uneasy.

He kept thinking about Ruan Mingzi's injuries.

This is a very rare emotion for him.

Huan Baiyu sat quietly in the study room without lighting for a long time, but still followed his original intention and came to Ruan Mingzi's courtyard silently.

In the dark, he saw Feng Jinge coming on horseback and also saw Feng Jinge returning on horseback.

I also saw the girl who inexplicably disturbed his mood, smiling at another man.

Huan Baiyu couldn't explain what his emotions were at that moment.

He stood quietly in the dark for a long time. When he came to his senses, he was already gently knocking on the girl's courtyard gate.

The girl seemed to be angry again, her tone was slightly tense, and she said something to him with distantness to thank His Highness for his concern. He always felt like someone had stabbed in his heart.

...

"Then I'll leave." Huan Baiyu's voice was a little low.

He turned around, but his arm was suddenly grabbed by the girl behind him.

He turned around and looked at Ruan Mingzi.

Ruan Mingzi's eyes seemed to be burning.

"What are you?" Ruan Mingzi didn't know why her sadness came so quickly, or that the moonlight tonight was so charming, or that she unexpectedly remembered many late nights in Qiongya, watching the moon quietly miss her old friend, but now she felt her eyes slowly becoming wet, and she couldn't see the old person in front of her.

"I came here at night just to ask me if it hurts, so I gave me medicine, and then I continued to pull away as if I had no feelings?" Ruan Mingzi grabbed Huan Baiyu's arm, bit her back teeth, and endured her tears. "Why? Why? Are you playing with me?"

Looking at the tears in the girl's eyes, Huan Baiyu froze all over.

I just felt like someone had stabbed in my heart several times, and it poured into my blood.

My whole body was trembling with pain.

This is more than before, suffocation and pain.

The words he heard behind the curtain in the hall when he was young made him feel chilled.

There seems to be something in my mind, it seems familiar.

It was like the girl who was about to cry in front of her, who had once cried and hugged him and shouted his name.

She was shouting...A Jiao?

Huan Baiyu only felt a headache in his brain, as if something was about to break out of his shell.

The pain was so real, as if someone had cut into pieces in his mind.

He gritted his teeth tightly, preventing himself from showing any weakness in front of Ruan Mingzi.

"Miss Ruan," he slowly sucked in the cold air, not letting his abnormality appear at all. His tone was cold and his voice was low, "I was abrupt tonight. I won't know how to go."

How could a person like him be worthy of pulling Ruan Mingzi into this unspeakable abyss?

Ruan Mingzi didn't expect to hear such words. She raised her head and did not let the tears flow down. She gritted her teeth and smiled: "Okay, this is what you said. Remember it."

Ruan Mingzi turned around and returned to the courtyard and suddenly closed the gate.

Qining stood under the eaves, looking at the girl wearing a cloak in surprise and strode towards her.

"Mingzi..." The girl's face looked too ugly, and Qining called out with some concern.

Especially, there were tears in her eyes.

This made Qi Ning so frightened and heartache.

Ruan Mingzi was unintentional to speak at this moment. She shook her head and said hoarsely, "I'm fine", lifted the curtain and went into the room.

Qi Ning stood under the eaves for a long time. After a while, he gritted his teeth and quietly opened the door of Ruan Mingzi that had just been closed.

Outside the gate of the courtyard, there was only a moonlight, and there was no one.

...

Qi Ning didn't sleep in the middle of the night. He was thinking about Ruan Mingzi's abnormality and got up early in the morning and planned to cook.

As a result, after getting up, Ruan Mingzi's cheeks were flushing and she was coming back with a basket of vegetables from outside.

The girl looked pretty good, carrying a vegetable basket and smiling at him in the morning light: "Why did you get up so early? It just so happened that I just bought some fresh vegetables and mutton from the morning market. Let's have a shabu shabu for lunch today."

It seemed like the crying of last night, it was abnormal, and it never happened.
