A wanderer who strays too far from his hometown will lose his name.
When reawakened, it is like a spell knocking on the door of your heart. Under this name, you must face yourself honestly.
Xie Queshan has always resisted honesty, but now he is at a rare disadvantage.
He was actually a little happy.
It was still extremely quiet under the curtain, and it seemed like I could see a drop of water falling into the lake in the distance, causing thousands of silent ripples.
Nan Yi could hear her heartbeat getting heavier and heavier.
Was she nervous about that answer?
Zhang Yuehui's words lingered in her heart vaguely. She had never looked at this matter from the perspective of a bystander. Forget all emotions, words can lie, and so can actions. Don't look at what he said, but look at the results.
As a result, she left safely and saved Yu Chengjun. How could Xie Queshan, a man who knew everything he could, give her a chance to survive? And it was he who broke the jade bracelet.
Now that I think about these details, I feel that there may be a mystery hidden in them.
He also rescued her from the Return Hall and allowed her to recover from her injuries. She could clearly feel that he wanted her best.
When they first met, she was afraid of him and knelt down to look up at him. When they met again, she just wanted to run away from him, but was forced to stand next to him and look at him levelly. At this moment, when her wings were full and she could clearly spread her wings and fly high, she was alone. Looking down at his face and eyes, I wished I could see through him.
What kind of person is he? This is important. This is about why she became the person she is now.
"Did you deliberately break the bracelet and ask me to report to Yucheng's army?" She asked again, fearing that her question was not clear enough.
Even though now was not a good time to be honest, she still couldn't wait to ask.
Her voice was very soft, and the hot breath between her words hit his ears.
Xie Queshan was finally defeated. He avoided her flirtatious gaze with a guilty conscience, but his face showed a hint of arrogance: "Humph, you are quite enlightened."
Nan Yi breathed a long sigh of relief - he admitted it! She thought it would be extremely difficult to pry the truth out of his mouth.
"You scared me to death -" Realizing that her voice was unconsciously louder, she quickly restrained herself and shut her mouth.
Xie Queshan held back a low smile in his voice: "He has left."
Nan Yi glared at him: "Then why don't you let me go."
Xie Queshan looked at her calmly, still holding her waist with his hands, and said: "I have betrayed my country for glory. Even if it is true that the beauty is hidden in the golden house, it is not too much, right?"
Nan Yi was dumbfounded. Did she lift a stone to hurt her own feet? She was a little unsure of what Xie Queshan meant, as if he was joking or serious.
She naturally thought of the most intimate contact, but it was a huge mystery, mixed with complex and taboo emotions. She always avoided it subconsciously and did not dare to delve into it.
"That day... wasn't it all fake?"
Xie Queshan froze for a moment.
He was teasing her, and there was no way she was really hiding in a golden house, but he just couldn't bear to let go. His eyes were mesmerized by the charm of tonight, and he was wandering on the edge of a dangerous boundary. And with just one word, she pulled him out.
Yes, isn’t it all a play? Why bother telling others about the trivial bit of sincerity in the play.
"Of course it's fake." He admitted frankly and gently let go.
Nan Yi felt the hands on her waist move away, and the restraint disappeared. After hearing him admit that everything was false, the burden that was weighing on her heart was finally relieved. The kiss in the wooden house was also fake, and the shocking love was also fake. This is the easiest way to understand it, isn't it?
She sat up hurriedly and straightened her clothes.
Pretending that there was no joke in the middle, Nan Yi continued the previous topic naturally, complaining in a low voice: "You didn't collude with me in advance. What if I can't run out and really die in the mountains? "
"You can't die."
He also sat up, and the two of them just sat stiffly on the edge of the bed, both pretending as if nothing had happened.
"...Then there must be a more comprehensive way."
"Aren't you going to leave? I'm careful, but you can't leave."
Nan Yi was stunned and asked in disbelief: "Are you willing to let me go?"
"Yes, I'll let you go." His tone was calm, as if he had just made an ordinary decision, but his eyes lingered on her face lustfully.
Nan Yi pursed his lips and was speechless for a long time. She was greatly shocked, even more so than when she confirmed that he didn't actually want to kill her.
She thought that he only cared about his relatives and protected Mrs. Gantang like his third uncle, so he went to rescue Yu Chengjun, and she was only a part of helping him succeed. He showed that ferocious face to her as a way to deal with the consequences, because he was afraid that she would reveal his secrets. After all, any of these things, if told, would make him lose his head and body.
She could figure this out, she was just one of his pawns. These days in this house, she has begun to accept this fact. If she falls into his hands again this time, it may be difficult for her to escape. She was ready to compete with him in a battle of wits and courage, but he said that that night, his plan included letting her go.
No, not only did he let her go, he also gave her something more important that day.
If she had really flown down the river to Jinling that night, she would still be a duckweed who was in panic all day long and didn't know where to turn. But it was precisely because she saved Yu Chengjun that she gained greater strength. become stronger.
"It's the same now," Xie Queshan said slowly, "This is what I promised you."
Nan Yi wanted to cry.
She had always been someone who was not taken seriously, and she was used to it. She had had the slightest idea that if she were Xie Xiaoliu, she would scold Zhang Yuehui, put down her harsh words of never forgiving him, and give him a cool look on her back, but she wasn't. Even though she was hurt, even if the promise she kept for three years turned out to be a scam, she still graciously forgave him.
Because she was used to her position, she even subconsciously understood Zhang Yuehui - even if he had real feelings for her, she was indeed just an inconspicuous wild girl. No matter how good she was, she could be better. Can you live up to the overwhelming wealth? Can it be better than deceiving the world's ambitions?
She spent the first half of her life being despised and put herself down. She was constantly being despised and putting herself down. Even though her situation is better now, some deep-rooted thoughts remain deep in her consciousness. Even she didn't feel that the promise made to her should be kept.
Especially Xie Queshan, he was too capable to despise her, and he didn't sign anything, so he could just treat his words as farts. But he didn't, not at all.
This is respect and courtesy that goes beyond anything else.
"The house is no longer safe. You have to leave as soon as possible. Tomorrow at midnight, I will draw away all the spies around you, so you can go out."
He did not arrange for her, but gave her the freedom of the sea and the sky. She can go wherever she wants to go. But he also had a small selfish desire, hoping that she wouldn't hate him so much.
Nan Yi's dry eyes became sore and swollen again. He was moved and did not want to say anything pretentious. He tried his best to smile and said: "Xie Queshan, you are suddenly so nice, I almost misunderstood you as a good person."
There was a hint of suppressed crying in the voice, and tears still fell when he said the last word.
She lowered her head, tears falling on the back of her hands. He lowered his eyes and saw it, pretending not to know.
He just smiled and said: "I still have some friendship within a limited scope. After all, you have helped me achieve something."
"I wasn't scared out of you." Nan Yi's sobs became more obvious, and the back of his hand became wet.
It turns out that girls have so many tears.
He tried his best to make the atmosphere more relaxed: "You're not going to defect to Zhang Yue as soon as you leave the house, right?"
She finally broke down into a smile: "Do I look that stupid?"
Xie Queshan was still smiling, but a hint of loneliness creeped onto his face shrouded in candle shadow: "Don't look back."
Nan Yi also noticed that there was a strange atmosphere spreading, but it looked like a tide rushing in from a distance, which would wet people's clothes. She subconsciously started to step back step by step, making jokes to show herself It was very easy to get up: "I won't look back, I will run away, eat well and drink spicy food... Didn't you say you want me to live the rest of my life in peace? Do you still have to give me a banknote?"
"...You're quite brave to ask for it."
"Thank you, sir. Just give it as you see fit. Anyway, give more or less. It all depends on whether you are generous."
The villain is successful, but he is also very cute.
"Go to bed."
"Yes, sir - I hope that when I open my eyes the next day, I will be awakened by the smell of copper."
Nan Yi slid into bed and closed her eyes. Complex emotions were still surging in her chest, making it difficult for her to fall asleep, but she could only pretend to be asleep, leaving a decent enough distance between herself and Shechoshan. She heard him turn off the light very softly and step back. He seemed to have stood outside the curtain for a long time. She was not sure. When she quietly opened her eyes and looked out, there was no one there.
——
In that compartment, Zhang Yuehui was still planning how to snatch Xie Queshan back.
Xie Queshan was already very vigilant. He secretly pushed the Husha people to follow them.
He knew that once this house was exposed, Xie Queshan would immediately transfer Nan Yi. As long as he leaves this airtight house, there will be more things that Xie Queshan can't control, so that he can have the opportunity to take her away.
Nothing in this world can be solved by reasoning. Cheating and deception is the only way to make a way in troubled times. He didn't care at all that a broken mirror was hard to put back together. If a mirror was broken, it would break. So he went to build thousands of intact mirrors and told her that there were no broken mirrors in the world.
He just wanted to get her, and that was his last home in this world. They had such a good time, and he didn't believe that there was no possibility between them anymore. Whether he called him paranoid or stubborn, he just wanted to create another dream for them.
He hoped she would like it.
Sure enough, early the next morning, a tightly covered carriage left the house.
The people from Husha outside immediately followed.
Zhang Yuehui was still very wary, thinking that this might be a cover-up. As he expected, another food cart entered the house. When it came out again, the bamboo basket on the cart had been covered, and there was a vague A piece of clothing.
Zhang Yuehui followed him.
……
When Nan Yi woke up, the house was silent and Xie Queshan had left. Sure enough, there was a stack of banknotes on the bedside.
Full, empty.
She disguised herself slightly and left through the back door. When she stepped out of the threshold, she felt unprecedentedly relaxed and inexplicably lost.
She didn't dare to stop and kept moving forward.
There is a "Liangji Mihang" in the city, which is the connecting point between Bingzhusi and Yucheng's army. This is the only place Nanyi knows where he can contact Bingzhusi.
