Yi Liang's explanation was still going on at the dining table, and Xuan Si's head felt like it was about to explode.
Gu Yiliang's pleasant voice stopped, and the room suddenly became quiet. Xuan Si and Shangguan were not used to it. Gu Yiliang raised his index finger and knocked Meng Xuansi's little forehead. He said unhappily,""After saying so much, how much did you hear?”
Meng Xuansi was quick-witted and immediately laughed."I heard it, I heard it all!”
Gu Yiliang glanced at him and raised his eyebrows."Repeat it for me!"
What? Repeat…
"Uh, okay…there are sixteen types of grammar, and word forms are…are…hmm, let me think.”She scratched her ears and cheeks as she thought about it, and her little face turned red. She awkwardly looked at Yi Mian, who was eating with his head lowered, and Shangguan, who was eating slowly, and begged for help.
It was true that a friend in need was a friend indeed. Shangguan met Xuan Si's passionate gaze and shrugged his shoulders, pretending not to see it. Dongfang Yimian did not mind. His fair fingers moved, and his chopsticks picked up a piece of winter melon and put it into his mouth to chew slowly. He looked extremely elegant.
Meng Xuansi didn't count on him anymore. She knew that he wasn't listening and was only focused on eating. Strangely enough, why didn't this man look fat? His figure was still so charming.
"You didn't listen at all!"
Oh no, Gu Yiliang had found out! Meng Xuansi put on a thick-skinned smile and ingratiatingly added more food to Yi Liang's bowl. Gu Yiliang took the bowl away and turned his head with a dark face.
"Eat something. Your mouth is not enough.”Gu Yiliang had been talking non-stop since the start of the meal. He didn't eat much because he didn't care.
Gu Yiliang turned around and frowned. There seemed to be five big words written on his handsome face: I'm still angry!
Meng Xuansi's temper flared up. She pouted and stuffed the winter melon into her mouth."You don't want to eat it? I'll eat!"
Who said I'm not eating?" Gu Yiliang opened his mouth at Xuan Si…
Xuan Si pretended not to see it and continued to swallow. Gu Yiliang shut his mouth awkwardly and raised his eyebrows. His slender index finger and thumb pinched Xuan Si's nose and shook it,""I said I want to eat!"
" Aiya, you're hurting me…" Meng Xuansi dodged, but her nose was still red from being pinched.
Gu Yiliang's fingers loosened a little, but he still muttered,""Help me!"
"Let go, or I'll starve you!" Xuan Si threatened. Her nose was pinched and there was food in her mouth. Her breathing was not smooth and her ears were red.
"Ah ~~" Gu Yiliang's hand loosened as expected. He opened his mouth like a chick without the ability to hunt. Meng Xuansi found it funny. She felt that the childishness in him after his cold side retreated was very cute. She obediently scooped up a spoonful of soup and slowly put it into his mouth.
Yi Liang pouted and rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction."Why is it soup?"
"How can a baby eat hard food? Soup is better.”Xuan Si secretly covered her face and smiled. Even the powerful Gu Yiliang had such a helpless moment.
Crack…The crisp sound of wood breaking could be heard.
Three pairs of eyes looked in the direction of the sound at the same time and met a pair of angry and apologetic eyes.
Dongfang Yi threw away the broken chopsticks in his hand, pushed the chair away, and said sadly,""There's still porridge in the kitchen.”
He left the dining table without a word. No one noticed his emotions.
In the kitchen…
Dongfang Yimian stood in front of the stove, his hands supporting the countertop. He breathed heavily," Gu Yiliang and Xuansi's ambiguous words and tacit actions at the dining table made him bite his chopsticks and send rice balls into his mouth. She couldn't describe the feeling in her heart.
Most of the time, I can only review your every frown and smile in my dreams. I can pinch your face in my dreams to make you smile…but most of the time, I can't sleep. Even dreaming has become a luxury! The fragrant scent of you beside my pillow makes my heart flutter and my blood surge, but I can only look at the black hair at the back of your head and feel melancholic.
"Yimian? Why are you in a daze?!"
Meng Xuansi had appeared behind him at some point. Seeing Yi Mian staring out the window in a daze, she patted him on the shoulder.
"It's okay. Children don't understand!" Yi Mian smiled bitterly. She did not understand why he was so melancholic.
Xuan Si puffed up her cheeks.”
Yi Mian suddenly became agitated. He held Xuan Si's small shoulders and asked softly,""Am I really that bad?"
"No, you're fine." Xuan Si was stunned.”She didn't know what was wrong with Yimian all of a sudden. He looked troubled and she didn't know where to start. She didn't know what he meant, but she was telling the truth. Yi Mian was really not bad. He was kind to people and had good relationships. Although he was a bit of a playboy, he was smart, capable, and had a good temper.
Dongfang Yimian pushed Xuan Si away as if he had been electrocuted. He muttered to himself as if blaming himself,""Yeah, I'm fine…but you don't want to…"
" Yimian..." Xuan Si was not stupid. She realized that her words had hurt Yimian even more. Words that were said were like water that was splashed out.
Speaking of which, he felt guilty. Yi Mian's contribution to Xuan Si was silently paid attention to behind the scenes. It was not obvious but it could not be ignored. Xuan Si knew it, but she was unable to respond to his efforts because she had to be loyal to Gu Yiliang! Her heart could not contain two heavy loves.
Xuan Si stood on her tiptoes and gently hugged Dongfang Yimian's seemingly weak body.""Yimian, you're very good, really. That's enough!"
"..." Dongfang Yimian was stunned by Xuan Si's hug. He didn't dare to hug Xuan Si's small body back.
Xuan Si raised her head and approached Yi Mian, revealing a big, sweet, rainbow-like smile."I might not be able to make any promises to you, but I've always known how good you are.”
Dongfang Yi forced out a relaxed and bright smile. There was no point in thinking too much at this moment. He wrapped his long arms around Meng Xuansi and nodded."Yes, I am. Hurry up and bring the porridge out."
"Alright, I'll do it." Meng Xuansi left Yimian's embrace and walked out with two bowls of porridge. After pushing open the kitchen door, she turned back to take a look before returning to the dining table with relief.
Dongfang Yimian felt relieved. The big smile that Xuan Si gave him made him feel that his distracting thoughts were unnecessary.
Some love was not suitable for persistence. Even if she was reluctant, she could only let go.
One should know that when it came to relationships, one should not expect a beautiful couple to be together. Otherwise, no matter how beautiful the story was, it would be overshadowed.
"On the road of love, there should always be someone waiting and someone waiting for the appointment.”Dongfang Yi picked up the porridge and comforted himself. Or rather, some people were destined to wait until the end, and some people…would never be able to wait.
She didn't know when it started, but the noisy, harmonious, and ambiguous little apartment had changed…It smelled like it had gone moldy.
Perhaps it was too harmonious, or perhaps it was the sunny and cheerful humor that numbed people. The three sensitive and quick-witted men had forgotten that today was a special day.
Today was the fifteenth day of the seventh month. It was known as the Ghost Festival, the Festival of the Dead, and the Seventh Month. In the Daoist Canon, it is recorded that on the day of the middle of the year, the local officials will select people to distinguish between good and evil…They will recite this scripture day and night, and the Great Saints of the Ten Directions will chant the spiritual chapter together. The prisoner, the hungry ghost, was freed at that time."
Starting from the day of the Hungry Ghost Festival, the Yin Qi became heavier during the day, far surpassing the Yang Qi. The people called July Ghost Month, and this phenomenon of heavy Yin Qi would last for more than half a month.
For the ghosts and gods, the half a month from the Ghost Festival was the most suitable time to travel. People were not suitable to do anything to avoid provoking the ghosts and gods and offending the public.
However, on this special day, Destiny had long prepared a surprise for this loving little house…Perhaps there was surprise, but joy was nowhere to be found.
The sky outside the window turned dark at lightning speed. Dark clouds covered the blue sky, revealing only a faint light that could not be distinguished from the moon or the sun.
"What's wrong with Xuansi? Are you distracted while eating?"
"I'm fine. My head hurts a little. I feel so tired.”Xuan Si held her forehead.
"Are you alright, Little Sisi?"
"It's…alright…"
Before the dust settled, Xuan Si fell to the side of the chair. Her small body kept twitching. She curled up in pain and seemed to be muttering something.
“#*……”
The atmosphere suddenly became tense. He couldn't understand what Xuan Si was saying, but he could vaguely see beads of sweat on her delicate forehead. Her lips were biting hard and slowly turning white.
"Xuan Si?" Shangguan picked up Xuan Si.
"Little Sisi?"
The meal tasted like wax, and his mood was so heavy that it felt like a stone that had been pressed down for a long time had suddenly expanded and contracted.
"Liang Yuan, why aren't you anxious at all? Don't tell me you…" Yi Mian grabbed Yi Liang's collar.
Yi Liang slapped his hand away from his collar and interrupted Yi Mian's unfinished words.""Look out the window…"
Hearing this, Yi Mian immediately ran to open the window.
There were no stars, and the sky seemed to be much darker than usual. The city was still bustling, and the streets were still lively. It was only four o'clock, but the sky was as dark as eight o'clock. He could vaguely hear the sighs and disputes of passersby on the roadside.
"The sky?"
Shangguan gently put Xuan Si on the bed and walked to the window silently. He looked at the sky, and with just one glance, all his pretense was shattered. His heart was surging. Was it excitement or something else?
Yi Liang lifted a strand of hair and tucked it behind Xuan Si's ear. His cold hand gently caressed Xuan Si's face, and his fingertips were as cold as ice!
"Don't you understand?"
"It's the moon!" Shangguan closed the window, no longer looking at the round and bright moon.
In fact, the moon was really beautiful. The yellow light reflected on the surrounding clouds, and the white sphere was like an exquisite piece of art, with a faint blue glow. The moon that had never changed for thousands of years had never been so beautiful. But why was it that no one present was willing to look at the moon again!
Everyone had their own complicated feelings.
At midnight on the night of the full moon…the moon was still a little incomplete.
Yi Liang Bingbing's hand was matte against the contours of Xuan Si's face.
The moon was round. Some things were about to return, and some were destined to return to their tracks. Why did he feel a little reluctant?
He looked at Xuan Si's pale face and the sweat stains on her cheeks from the pain she shouldn't have suffered. Her lips were pink after she bit them, leaving a clear bite mark.
"Is it that unbearable?" Yi Liang muttered to Xuan Si as she tried her best to control her body's reaction.
Shangguan, Dongfang Yimian, and Gu Yiliang took turns watching over Meng Xuansi until she slowly opened her beautiful eyes, which were filled with exhaustion.
After resting for a day, Xuan Si finally woke up. She couldn't eat anything, and her mind was a little dazed. Her eyes were sometimes empty, and sometimes frightened.
In the next few days, the moon became rounder and brighter. Xuan Si's condition was also getting worse by the day, becoming thinner and thinner. She couldn't eat anything and curled up in bed weakly. She was so fragile and helpless. Could she feel more secure just hugging herself like this?
If a sense of security could be obtained so easily, where would the danger go?!
