The next morning, when the light of dawn slowly lit up, Ruan Er's heart moved his numb arms and legs and slowly got out of bed. He looked at the black blanket that was still not dirty even when stepped on by his shoes and was momentarily lost in thought. He patted his face and walked towards the newly installed full-length mirror.
In the bright mirror, there was a girl with red eyes and dark circles. She was wearing a wrinkled black robe, and the only decoration on the black robe was an embroidery of a tree. Ruan Erxin leaned closer to the mirror and tugged at it. After expressing her curiosity about the tree, she looked at her head that was like a chicken nest. She walked to the dressing table beside her and found a wooden comb. She returned to the dressing mirror and raised her hand to carefully comb her hair.
Ten minutes later, she looked at the mirror with satisfaction. The girl was full of energy. Her high ponytail was tied up tightly at the back of her head. Ruan Erxin looked at the mirror with some dissatisfaction. She thought about it and let go of her hair. She split the ponytail into two childish buns. She nodded in front of the mirror and opened it. It was still a simple ponytail.
At that moment, perhaps it was the reflection of the mirror or the ring's own light, but there was a bright flash. Ruan Erxin only blinked her eyes to show that she was not surprised by such a thing. Then, she walked outside, intending to find some water to wash her face. The moment the door opened, there was obvious disappointment in her eyes. The castle was obviously not a house in the countryside. When it opened, it welcomed the sun and the winter snow. What welcomed Ruan Erxin was the same sound of the door opening.
Ruan Erxin looked at Mu Chenchen, who was standing by the door, in confusion. She only smiled and continued to walk to the water supply of the castle according to the steps she wanted.
"Two-Hearted!" Mu Chenchen shouted from behind.
Ruan Erxin turned around and retracted her right foot. She only looked at her without saying anything. It was as if she had lost her sense of novelty. She wasn't surprised that Mu Chenchen was here.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like that?" Mu Chenchen looked at the expressionless man and asked curiously.
"It's nothing." Ruan Erxin realized that her voice was a little hoarse. He omitted the words he wanted to explain and simply replied.
"Hehe, I'm very happy to see you, Erxin!”
Ruan Erxin's gaze shifted. She wanted to ask something, but she only nodded and smiled.
"Are you not feeling well?" The other party looked at her forced smile and took a step forward to ask with concern.
Ruan Erxin continued to shake her head. She looked up at the lights in the corridor that lit up with Mu Chenchen's footsteps.
"Are you unhappy?" Mu Chenchen asked worriedly.
"Why are you here?" Ruan Erxin retracted her gaze and stared into her eyes.
"Hehe, because I'm the High Priest!”Mu Chenchen replied casually.
"Oh." Ruan Erxin suddenly seemed to have let go of something and smiled sincerely at her." I'm going to wash my face. Are you coming?"”
"Alright!" Mu Chenchen walked to her side and held her arm.
" Ruan Erxin by the pool!"
"Hmm?" Ruan Erxin lifted her face from the water and looked at the worried Mu Chenchen." I'm fine. It's just that my eyes hurt a little. I heard that cold water can help with the pain."”
"You…Erxin, you seem to be different from when you were at the Yearning Pavilion.”
"Mu Chenchen, lend me your shoulder.”
"Hmm? Oh, okay."
Ruan Erxin touched the water on her face, leaned close to Mu Chenchen's shoulder, and closed her eyes.
"Don't cry!"
