Inside is Xiao Ling'er, outside is Jiujiu and the full moon... This is the sign of a subjugated country due to internal and external troubles!

Your Majesty, Xuebao has harmed the country!

"It's best if you can do what you say."

Ning Yuan replied quietly, then took out the key, opened the door, and looked forward.

The house was quiet, except for the ticking of the clock on the wall.

"Little Ling'er?"

When no one responded, Ning Yuan walked forward, first placed Gu Guanxue obediently on the sofa, offered her a glass of water, and then made a hissing gesture to her.

Gu Guanxue circled her fingers and gave an OK gesture. At the same time, she whispered to him to hurry up and see Ning Yiling.

He knocked lightly at Xiao Ling'er's door, waited for a moment and then opened the door. The curtains in the room were not opened and he looked a little drowsy. Ning Yuan walked over and stretched out his hand to open the curtains, and then he realized that

Little Ling'er was lying on the bed with her eyes closed.

She seemed to have had some kind of nightmare, her brows and eyes were slightly wrinkled, her hair was scattered around her cheeks and forehead, as if she had a fever and was sweating, and her cheeks had a sickly blush. When Ning Yuan saw this situation, he immediately walked to the girl's bedside.

"Little Ling'er...?"

"elder brother…"

Ning Yiling opened her eyes drowsily, and found that Ning Yuan was standing beside her bed for some reason, with his palm covering her forehead. The warm touch made her feel dazed for a moment, and she stretched out her hand to grab it.

The warmth transferred to his cheeks.

"Don't go...I won't say those words to you anymore. Please don't ignore me, okay..."

Tears soaked into the palm of his hand bit by bit, and the girl's dreamy whisper pierced Ning Yuan's silence. These days, on the one hand, he had no time to care about anything else because of the choice between Man Yue and Jiu Jiu, and on the other hand, he was also afraid to face it

Ning Yiling, so he simply chose to escape temporarily.

But escaping from this kind of thing can only hurt the people you love and the people who love you.

He had no way to prove whether Ning Yiling's illness and fever had something to do with his escape, but he could feel Xiao Ling'er's trembling when she held his hand just now. In her sick state, she responded to everything around her completely by instinct.

It was precisely because of this that Ning Yiling said such compromising words to Ning Yuan with infinite grievance.

Under normal circumstances, Xiao Ling'er is arrogant and stubborn. It is impossible for him to say the words of surrender and compromise, but sometimes his inner voice is often hidden in the most vulnerable moments.

On the night when the person he liked was about to confess his love to another girl, he tried to break through the layer of window paper between each other. In the end, not only did he fail, but Ning Yuan began to be afraid of facing her. He did not go home.

Even simple conversations on the phone began to lose audio.

Xiao Ling'er, who was not confident about this relationship, suddenly couldn't help but start thinking wildly. She knew that she actually liked someone she shouldn't like, but what could be done about it?

It would be nice if I didn't hear that conversation. In that case, I would still treat him as a brother and act like a baby without restraint. I wouldn't have to worry about Lu Jiujiu snatching him away, and I could always be a sister who doesn't know anything.

.

This seems to be not the first time that he has hurt people close to him. Whether it was Lu Jiujiu before, Man Yue now, or Ning Yiling, they were all hurt to some extent because of his selfish actions.

Even the damage continues.

"I'm sorry...my brother was wrong." Ning Yuan said softly: "I was too selfish before."

Ning Yiling murmured unconsciously, her forehead still feeling a little hot. She instinctively wanted to nestle into Ning Yuan's hand, like a cub seeking familiar and warm shelter.

"I'm sorry, before... I only considered myself... and didn't care about your feelings... I'm sorry..."

"I will never be like this again." He looked solemnly at the sleeping Ning Yiling, reached out and brushed the broken hair from her forehead: "Can you forgive me?"

Ning Yiling didn't speak, and fell asleep with steady breathing after a while. Ning Yuan stayed with the girl quietly beside the bed for a while, then thought of Gu Guanxue waiting outside, gently took out his hand and walked out.

Gu Guanxue, who was sitting on the sofa waiting quietly, was just as she said. She had been calm and had no thoughts of causing trouble. When she saw Ning Yuan coming out, she stood up and asked:

"How is Little Ling'er doing?"

"She has a slight fever, but she has already fallen asleep. When she wakes up, she will take some medicine and change her clothes. She should be much better."

"Then I'll wait a little longer." Gu Guanxue sat down again: "Anyway, I have nothing else to do today."

"Thanks."

"You're welcome. I took the initiative to help you." Gu Guanxue said quietly, "But your mood seems not right? What happened?"

"No, it's nothing." Ning Yuan was silent for a moment, and then seemed to be talking to himself or to Gu Guanxue:
