Chapter 122: Familiar yet Unfamiliar

After thanking Yu for a moment, his eyes fell on her eyes, which were narrowed slightly due to fatigue and had a hint of water color.

After a while, he finally gave up as if resigned to his fate, turned away and said softly: "Forget it, just go to sleep."

After finishing speaking, Xie Yuci stood up from the edge of the bed, gently tucked Zhuo Qingtan's quilt again, and was about to leave.

Suddenly, Zhuo Qingtan stretched out a hand from the quilt again and grabbed his cuff.

Xie Yuci turned his head in slight surprise. He looked at Zhuo Qingtan who was sleeping on the bed, frowned and asked, "What? Aren't you sleepy? What else is there?"

Zhuo Qingtan blinked.

Her eyes were warm and full of water, and the moist water seemed to overflow in the next second, very transparent.

She was so sleepy that she seemed to be unconscious, and she frowned at him with a hoarse voice.

"It's so late, what else are you doing?"

Xie Yuci's eyes fell quietly on her face for a moment, then suddenly turned his head and stopped looking at her.

After a moment, he chuckled "ha" and said with a half-smile: "What? It's late at night and Zhuo Xian is sleepy. Isn't Xie not sleepy? Since he is sleepy, he naturally wants to go back to his guest room.

Gone to rest."

He said "Ah", pretending to be surprised and asked: "Zhuo Qingtan, did you think that I slept in this guest room with you in the past few days?"

Zhuo Qingtan frowned when he heard this.

She gently raised a hand, unconsciously pressed the corners of her eyes, and wiped away the water color at the end of her eyes.

Then, she seemed a little confused and asked: "Isn't it?"

Xie Yuci's eyes jumped immediately.

He never expected that she would ask such a question, and the teasing look at the corner of her mouth suddenly froze.

It seemed that the sudden silence at this moment finally shook Zhuo Qingtan away from his drowsiness.

She slightly raised her eyes in confusion, and asked in a dumb voice: "What's wrong? Didn't you say this afternoon that you blocked Luofu from coming to see me? Isn't it because you have been in this room to take care of my injury?"

Because of that?”

The air around Xie Yuci seemed to suddenly flow again.

He suddenly let out a long breath deep in his heart. His mood was very complicated for a moment. He didn't know whether he should feel more relaxed or more regretful at this time.

Turns out that's what she meant.

That's right.

It's not like he doesn't know that Zhuo Qingtan has always been upright and upright, observing etiquette to the point of being a bit old-fashioned. He is the most self-denial and propriety person.

What on earth was he thinking?

What on earth is he misunderstanding?

What on earth is he expecting?

The moment he asked Zhuo Qingtan, "Isn't it?", his ears were ringing and his heartbeat was as fast as a drum.

At that moment, he suddenly had the illusion that he was the person Zhuo Qingtan trusted most and could rely on when he was weak and helpless.

Even at that moment, he mistakenly thought that at this moment and in this situation, Zhuo Qingtan was reluctant to let him go and was trying to keep him.

Xie Yuci shook his head gently and smiled self-deprecatingly.

What is he thinking.

It was obvious that the relationship between him and her in this life was nothing more than checks and balances and holding each other hostage.

——He held Zhuo Qingtan hostage to achieve his own goals; Zhuo Qingtan also noticed his ulterior motives and used this to tactfully check and balance him.

But just now he was so confused that he felt that the relationship between them was more than that?

It's crazy.

He is really crazy.

Xie Yuci's eyes were heavy and he remained silent for a moment without saying a word.

Suddenly, he heard the sound of Zhuo Qingtan's clothes rubbing against the corner of his quilt as he sat up.

Looking down, he saw that although the tired and haggard look on Zhuo Qingtan's face was still heavy, the confused and sleepy look in his eyes suddenly disappeared because he had talked too much just now, and he fell asleep and woke up.

At this time, her long and thin arms were supported on the bed, supporting her thin upper body.

The pair of lavender nails, which showed a hint of unhealthy, were looming under the sleeves of a cloud-white robe.

Seeing this, Xie Yuci frowned subconsciously. This kind of attack on the Moon Worship Festival had hurt her heart.

She looked at him quietly and suddenly asked softly: "Thank you for your resignation, but did I say something wrong?"

He was slightly startled and then asked: "Why do you feel so?"

Zhuo Qingtan tilted his head slightly to look at him.

"Because you are unhappy."

Xie Yuci said coldly: "No."

She sighed softly and said helplessly: "You obviously have it."

Then, he added softly: "And it's because I'm here."

Zhuo Qingtan's eyes were as clear as water, and she looked at him quietly.

"But because you feel that there is something secret between An Shishu and I that you are hiding, so you are angry and unhappy?"

Xie Yuci: "."

Of course not.

That topic had actually already closed in his mind.

If she didn't want to say anything, he would never force her to ask.

How could such a trivial matter make him angry at her?

If he really wanted to know, at worst, after he left her place, he would go to An Pinhan's guest room to perform some truth telling skills on him, then there would be nothing he didn't know.

——He actually did want to do this before.

But at this moment, he suddenly couldn't think of it anymore.

He was actually angry with himself, because he was so unsatisfied.

She obviously hasn't said anything or done anything. Just a casual word or a look or movement can make him upset and tease him again and again to the point of applause.

Zhuo Qingtan silently observed his expression at this time, and asked softly with some confusion: "If it wasn't for this, why are you so depressed?"

Xie Yuci fell silent, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

Zhuo Qingtan suddenly coughed a few times. She frowned and raised a hand to hold her chest, then sighed softly with a hoarse voice.

"Thank you. My throat hurts."

She was not used to tying her hair when she went to bed, and now her black hair covered her shoulders and back. She was as pale as cold jade, her face was pure and pure, and there was a hint of indigo under her eyes.

But it is precisely because of this cold beauty under the visual conflict that it makes her childish and thin even more, and her thinness seems a bit pitiful.

Xie Yuci was slightly startled.

In the past, he was used to seeing the Holy Emperor Taiyin Youying sitting in the temple, untainted by the dust, with authority reaching the sky and boundless divine power.

She seems to always be synonymous with strength, excellence, immortality and beauty.

However, at this time, the soul was gone, the divine personality was no longer there, and she fell into the mortal world after her divine bones were broken. She was reincarnated as a human being, but she was tortured by all kinds of pain and all kinds of fragmentary punishments, and she was so sick that her bones were torn apart.

Xie Yuci couldn't help but feel a little confused.

She, is she still her?

It seems so, right?
