The setting autumn sun, as if drunk, filled the sky with lonely orange-red wisps.
The ancient and vicissitudes of cobblestone roads are full of mysterious style, making them appear peaceful and elegant.
Everything in the world seems to be drunk under this dusk sunset.
A tall figure walked slowly up this quiet path. In front of him was a bamboo forest. The bamboo forest at dusk is the most beautiful.
Entering the bamboo sea, the mist is floating, as if you are in the green cloud mountains.
The bamboo branches are swaying, the bamboo leaves are whirling, and the sunset is mottled in the bamboo forest. The lush green branches and leaves cover the sky and the sun.
A gust of breeze blew by, and the bamboo leaves rustled. Through the mottled bamboo shadows, an elegant bamboo house was revealed. The walking man paused slightly, and a smile appeared on his cold face. Under the sunset, a pair of
The golden and silver eyes are extremely charming.
His smiling eyes fell on the green figure lying on the bamboo couch in front of the house.
He walked a few steps quickly and stopped a dozen steps away from her, carefully looking at her sleeping face.
She was seen lying leisurely, with one hand supporting her head and the other on her slightly swollen belly.
His eyes were closed tightly, his long black and curled eyelashes were trembling slightly from time to time, and his face was calm but slightly pale.
The breeze blew by, and the black hair fluttered, passing over her beautiful face and falling down her shoulders.
People like her can't help but feel sorry for her, and they can't help but love her.
The footsteps moved slightly, and there was a "click". It was the sound of feet stepping on bamboo leaves. It was such a slight sound, but the sleeping person opened his eyes. The originally blurred black eyes brightened slightly after seeing the person in front of him.
He looked up, then slowly stood up,
"Xiaoyan."
A gentle voice and a calm expression.
Lifting her feet that had just paused, Chu Yan stepped forward and stretched out his hand to pull her up. There was tenderness on his originally cold handsome face.
"It's so cold outside, how could you fall asleep?"
"It's too stuffy in the house. The air outside is better."
Wen Xining smiled, but the smile did not reach his heart.
Wen Xining took his hand out of Chu Yan's hand without leaving a trace, turned around and walked inside.
That indifference, that coldness, made the smile on Chu Yan's face freeze. He clenched the hands in his sleeves tightly, and his gold and silver eyes narrowed dangerously, and unwillingness and coldness appeared on his face.
Seeing her figure disappear at the door, Chu Yan took a deep breath, put away the inappropriate expression on his face, and followed in.
Wen Xi was sitting quietly at the table, and was about to pour tea. Chu Yan walked forward, took the teapot, and poured her a cup.
"It's time to drink some hot tea. Be careful if you catch a cold. You see you don't care about your body at all."
There was still the soft voice and the concerned expression.
Wen Xining picked up the tea cup and took a sip before looking up at Chu Yan.
He didn't say anything, just looked at him, so focused, so focused.
Chu Yan's heart jumped when she saw her, his face was filled with joy, and he couldn't help but murmured:
"Xi..."
"Are Shuo and Li Feng really gone?"
But as soon as he said one word, Wen Xining interrupted him and asked a question that made Chu Yan's expression suddenly freeze.
Chu Yan lowered his eyes, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said with a sad expression:
"Yes, when I fell into the cave, I watched Mu Lifeng disappear in front of me. Later, after Lan Yu rescued me, the Jade Snow Mountain collapsed, and I only had time to rescue you, and they were all buried.
.Xi'er, I'm really sorry..."
This sentence was what Wen Xining said on the first day he woke up.
More than a month has passed, and she has gone from nearly collapsing to being indifferent now. However, this question is something she must ask every day, and every time, Chu Yan will patiently answer it again.
But as the days passed, he felt that his patience was about to be worn out by her.
He wanted her, he wanted her before, and he wanted her even more now. Without the constraints of the contract, without the interference of Beitang Shuo and others, he had become strong enough.
But she could never forget that person in her heart, and...
She clenched her fists again, and her eyes dropped slightly, landing on Wen Xining's slightly bulging belly. That was the only connection between her and that person now. If possible...
No!
Chu Yan suppressed the resentment in his heart and looked up, only to see Wen Xining lowering her head. Although he couldn't see her expression, he knew it clearly.
Because every time he said these words, she looked the same.
The hand he was holding loosened and he slowly raised it. After holding back, he still grabbed her hand on the table.
Wen Xining froze and struggled slightly, but did not break away. She raised her head and looked at him with confusion.
In the past, Chu Yan would only accompany her silently at this time, but now...
"Xi'er, please stop being like this, okay?"
Chu Yan's eyes were full of pain. It hurt that Wen Xining could not forget Beitang Shuo, and it also hurt that she was indifferent to him.
"Then what do you want from me?"
Wen Xining looked directly at him and asked this question calmly.
Beitang Shuo is dead, and her life has no meaning. She will live now just for the concern in her belly.
More than a month ago, when she woke up, she found that she was already in this place, and there was only Chu Yan beside her.
Chu Yan said that this is the home of his Red Shadow clan. Their clansmen used to live in the village at the foot of the mountain, and this bamboo house was his and his sister's favorite place.
Although she was very happy that Chu Yan was fine, she almost collapsed when she learned that Beitang Shuo and the others had died in Jade Snow Mountain. The excessive excitement caused her to move her fetus, and it took more than half a month to lie down.
.
Chu Yan had never lied to her, so she believed in his words.
She has no plans to return to Liao Bei. The people she cares about are gone, so why should she go back there?
She has just passed the three-month unstable period, and now she is still very weak, and the depression in the past few days has made her spirit worse day by day.
She knew that this was not good for the baby in her belly, but she couldn't help it. How could she not miss Beitang Shuo and those who cared about her?
Just because she insisted on finding Xuan Tianjing, she buried them all together. The culprit of all this was her.
Chu Yan held her hand tightly, pursed his lips, and suddenly said:
"Forget him and let me take care of you from now on. I will do better than him. Trust me, Xi'er!"
