"Xuanyuan Hao!" Su Tong couldn't help shouting, and swept his kick across the quilt, wanting to greet his calves, thighs, and even his little brother. But the moment she kicked him over, he suddenly moved and knocked her wildly.
The feet are sandwiched between the legs...
Su Tong was stunned. She pulled hard but didn't pull it out. She pushed hard again but still couldn't break away from her grasp.
She was about to get angry, but Xuanyuan Hao spoke first.
"Su Tong, do you have to go through such trouble when sleeping?" He sighed, with a bit of helplessness in his words. He frowned slightly, stretched out his big palm and wrapped it around her little hand holding the corner of the quilt, "Don't put your hands away.
It’s cold outside the quilt!”
After that, he covered her hands, let go of her feet, turned over, and pretended to fall asleep again.
"Wait a minute!" Su Tong stopped him and pulled his sleeves to prevent him from turning them over, with an awkward look on his face.
"What's wrong? Huh?" Xuanyuan Hao turned sideways and spoke lightly. Under the faint moonlight, the expression on his face could not be seen clearly, but his soft and deep voice made Su Tong lose consciousness for a moment.
Realizing that she had lost her composure, Su Tong's little face turned red suddenly, she coughed lightly, and put her thoughts back, wondering what to say to him!
She couldn't...ask him directly why he didn't "do" something, right? She couldn't ask him why he was such a gentleman...
"Where...have you been today?" She took a few deep breaths and made full preparations. As soon as Su Tong opened her mouth, she asked something in a babbling tone, and she wanted to bite off her tongue in annoyance.
It really hurts the atmosphere to ask such "common questions"!
"What about you?" With a low sigh, Xuanyuan Hao opened his eyes, knowing that he couldn't sleep for the time being, so he simply asked her and chatted with her.
Just because he didn't ask, it didn't mean he didn't know - she took a medicinal bath and left today, and didn't come back until ten o'clock in the evening. Aunt Five had been looking for her all day, and Chi Feng also searched all over the city, but there was no trace of her.
Found her trace.
"Me?" Su Tong was startled. She didn't expect that the topic would turn to herself so quickly. She snorted and said nonchalantly, "I spent a whole day wandering around the city!"
"Su Tong, you have to draft a lie..." His voice was neither hasty nor slow, but there was a hint of anger. Su Tong heard the threat in his words, and couldn't help but pursed his lips and muttered -
—
"I went to the south of the city!" she murmured, but did not notice that the body of the person next to her suddenly stiffened, and she continued to talk to herself, "Yixue's body was hung on the city wall, and Yixue... is...
The person who robbed the law field with me that day!"
Afraid that he wouldn't understand, Su Tong also explained while talking: "I wanted to go and take a look, but I couldn't let Xuanyuan Jin's people insult her like this. Later, I couldn't do it on my own, so I had to ask Yan Luo for help.
, I just happened to bring Huo'er back..."
Having said this, Su Tong pointed towards the door, indicating that Huo'er was sleeping outside, and also confirmed the credibility of what he said.
"You went to find him?" Xuanyuan Hao said calmly, his tone was a little deeper, and there was a hint of loneliness in his voice.
Yan Luo has become a gap between the two of them. Ever since she abandoned him in the imperial mausoleum and ran towards Yan Luo, a hole has been broken in his heart. After Su Tong returned to him
, he also kept silent about Yan Luo's affairs, not wanting to cause any displeasure...
Unhappy things can be avoided, and if you try to avoid them as much as possible, you will be happy.
Unexpectedly, this time she took the initiative to say...
"Yes." Sensing his slightly cold attitude, Su Tong couldn't help but arch towards him. She didn't dare to take the initiative to get into his arms, so she could only rub his sleeves with her hands, and kept touching him.
Pulling him under the quilt, "I just brought Huo'er back. I regard him... as my master!"
This is also the first time that Su Tong, like a little woman who has done something wrong, is willing to explain this kind of thing. Because the last thing she wants is to be misunderstood by him.
"Do you think he is the master?" Xuanyuan Hao couldn't help but murmur. He remembered the news that Chi Feng brought back from neighboring countries and asked about her mysterious origin, "What about your real master?"
"Ah?!" Su Tong's body froze. In this era, she had never talked about her master or her memory about the future with anyone.
A sourness suddenly surged in his heart, and a sour smell filled his nostrils. Su Tong took a deep breath, controlled her emotions, explained lightly, and then changed the topic: "The real master has already
Dead... By the way, you haven't told me yet, where have you been today?"
She didn't want to talk more about her master, because it was meaningless. She couldn't go back to that era, and even if she could go back, what could she do? In that huge explosion, the master might have been dead...
Xuanyuan Hao didn't speak, and quietly felt her silent loneliness and desolation. He couldn't help but hold her hand in the quilt, and wrapped it tightly in his big palm - at that moment, he was painful and selfish!
Painful because Su Tong's sad feelings when she mentioned her real master made him crazy with jealousy; selfish because she said her real master was dead.
He silently swore in his heart: Since that master is dead, Su Tong, from now on... I will do my best to treat you well. I will never break my promise during my lifetime!
"Hey!" After a while, Su Tong adjusted her mood, but still didn't see him speaking. She couldn't help but kicked him in the quilt angrily, "Are you asleep again?"
"Today, I also went to the south of the city..." As soon as he finished speaking, he frowned and sighed...
