Ye Fan was speechless. He didn't know how to talk to the person in front of him. There were some things that, after talking about them, it seemed that even his friends had worked hard. He knew that the person in front of him only approached him for the purpose of revenge. In fact, he had no feelings in it.
Her heart was filled with despair. It took all her effort to maintain this politeness, but she could not complain about her grievances. No matter how hard she worked, she could not shed tears. All she could do to each other was polite greetings. "
"Miss Ye" and "Mr. Sima".
Sima Xichen said calmly: "Miss Ye, take a good rest for a while. I'll look around to see if I can find a way out by myself without bothering that slave."
Ye Fan nodded gently, trying to maintain a calm expression.
There is a distance between them that can no longer be ignored.
His father betrayed his parents, and he arranged a plan to make his parents disappear quietly from this world. There was hatred between him and him, and this hatred made them unable to even be friends. He teased himself, and now he thinks of it.
, but I can only complain about my naivety. When I think about it, I laugh at myself with tears in my eyes.
They are, after all, just strangers.
Watching Sima Xichen leave quietly, Ye Fan sighed slightly. After all, it was just a dream. Why would he meet Sima Xichen again? Now that his identity has been revealed, Ye Fan did not intend to continue pretending. She stepped out of the ice bed.
I reluctantly sat up, and after a little luck, I felt it was okay, so I stood up and tried to walk around.
There was nothing else to see except ice in the entire ice kiln. The ground was very slippery. Every step I took, I felt like I wanted to fall. Ye Fan thought, now that the mask has been taken off, it is really inappropriate for him to dress like this.
, I just don’t know if there are any clothes here that I can change into.
"Why don't you continue to rest?" Sima Xichen suddenly whispered from behind, "You have to be careful. The ground is very slippery. You have already been injured. It would be inappropriate if you fall again."
"Thank you." Ye Fan turned around with a faint smile and said softly, "If you walk slower, it should be fine. It's just that you've discovered your identity. It's no fun to keep pretending like this. I want to see if there are any clothes that can be changed.
, so as not to make people laugh when you go out later."
There is a politeness and strangeness between the two that makes them feel depressed.
Especially the polite attitude.
"You are tall and short, fat and thin, which is somewhat different from my mother. There are many clothes here, which were stored here at that time. They are all my mother's favorite colors and styles. They still look good now. If
If you don't mind it, you can change it temporarily. You are now like a daughter, so it does look a little inappropriate to wear the casual clothes of a middle-aged man." Sima Xichen said with a smile.
Ye Fan was a little shy, his face was slightly red, and he lowered his head, not knowing what to say.
When Sima Xichen saw this, he immediately smiled and said: "Actually, I think it looks good, but if you go out like this, I'm afraid it will scare people who know you well. I don't know why you became like this, and I see those
The clothes are really pretty, so I also wanted you to put them on to see if they fit."
"Thank you." Ye Fan's politeness seems to be very casual now, trying hard to maintain the politeness between each other, and no one wants to pierce the layer of window paper between them.
I changed into a lavender dress in the next room. It was a pure color, like a lotus flower blooming for the first time. It was indescribably delicate and delicate. I stood there, shy and speechless, and the clothes seemed to fit as if they were tailor-made.
, beautiful and moving.
"It's so suitable." Sima Xichen nodded, smiled, and said nothing for a long time. He looked at the woman in front of him. He had not been with her for long. Although he married her as his wife, everything was just for one purpose.
Just to use her, now that some things have been talked about, it is not so difficult, and it is easier to watch and talk about.
Ye Fan smiled slightly and said softly: "It's really beautiful."
"It looks even more beautiful on you." Sima Xichen said seriously, not joking at all, "This dress is very suitable for you to wear."
Ye Fan smiled lightly and said: "Nowadays, it is so difficult to believe what you say."
"I know." Sima Xichen said calmly, "But now, there is no use relationship between us. Now, the two of us are trapped in this place together, and we don't know how to get out. I'll go to that slave just now.
When I asked, she took medicine and committed suicide as soon as her acupuncture points were unblocked, so there is no need for the two of us to be false."
Ye Fan was stunned and said with some guilt: "It's all because of me that you fell into this ice kiln. I'm really sorry. I will definitely find a way to get both of us out."
"What does it have to do with you?" Sima Xichen smiled slightly, "The thing frozen in this ice kiln is my mother. Even if you don't fall in, I will try my best to get in and find out. All along,
I want to know where my parents are being hidden by Li Qiang, so you don’t have to feel guilty. Besides, it’s not necessarily that we can’t get out. Since we can get in, we can get out.”
"Well." Ye Fan nodded lightly, "Since only women can enter, then only women can open the mechanism of this ice kiln. Since I can get in by accident, I can definitely get out by accident."
."
Sima Xichen smiled slightly and said, "Maybe."
After saying this, the two of them didn't know what to say anymore. They stood quietly, each thinking about their own thoughts. The air suddenly became a little depressing.
Suddenly, hearing someone talking, Sima Xichen subconsciously pulled Ye Fan's hand. He still regarded her as a woman who didn't know martial arts. This subconscious thought was to hold Ye Fan's hand tightly and gently
Take her aside and hide behind a screen carved from ice.
"Someone is coming down."
Ye Fan nodded lightly and felt Sima Xichen's hand holding hers tightly. The palm was large and slightly rough, caused by years of martial arts practice, but it was very comfortable.
It wasn't that she couldn't avoid it, but Sima Xichen's subconscious reaction made her feel unspeakably touched. No matter what, when he encountered danger, he still kept her in his heart. His first reaction was
Take her away with you.
"Is it true that someone will come in?" It was a woman's voice, "Two eunuchs who tamed snakes died, one of the cleaning slaves fainted, and one died. This is the first time since the ice kiln was built. I am really curious.
So tight, who can have such ability?"
Someone laughed softly. The laughter sounded very uncomfortable, like the sound of a drake, which made Ye Fan's ears feel extremely uncomfortable. "Haha, even if you can get in, you can't get out. It's only this thousand-year cold."
Between the icy cold and the environment here, I’m afraid the only option is to wait for death here.”
