Early the next morning, Dongfang Mingyue was waiting in front of Xiao Yu's door. As soon as Xiao Yu opened the door, a great beauty stood in the cold wind, making people feel pity for her.
When Dongfang Mingyue saw Xiao Yu open the door, she was already listening to the movements in Xiao Yu's room. At this time, she immediately smiled and said,"Young Master Xiao, you're finally awake. Was the bowl of porridge delicious yesterday?”
Xiao Yu thought that Dongfang Mingyue had come here early in the morning for something important, but he didn't expect that she would only ask about the bowl of porridge from yesterday. Xiao Yu smiled and said,"That bowl of porridge yesterday was indeed delicious.”Xiao Yu seemed to be unsatisfied, but he didn't eat at all. The bowl of porridge was thrown out of the window.
"Since that's the case, how about I send it to Young Master every day?”Dongfang Mingyue was looking forward to Xiao Yu's answer.
Xiao Yu said,"Uh, it's too troublesome for Miss, so there's no need."”
Dongfang Mingyue's eyes were filled with disappointment. A servant walked over and said,""Young Master Xiao, my Second Furen invites you.”
Xiao Yu had finally found a chance to free himself from this Dongfang Mingyue, but why was the Dongfang Second Mistress looking for him?
"Young Master, this way please." the servant said.
"Since Second Furen is looking for me, I will take my leave first.”Xiao Yu nimbly bypassed Dongfang Mingyue, who helplessly watched Xiao Yu leave.
The servant took Xiao Yu through a small road. On both sides of the road were lush bamboos. The environment was elegant and quiet, just like the environment where the Oriental Pearl Tower lived. However, this place was a little more lively than the Oriental Pearl Tower. It was probably because someone was living here well.
Not long after, Xiao Yu stood in front of a house. Under the guidance of his servant, he walked up to the second floor. The servant bowed and said,"Second Furen, Young Master Xiao is here."
The Second Mistress did not turn around and only said,""Got it. You can leave first."
The moment the Dongfang Second Mistress turned around, Xiao Yu discovered that she was so weak and delicate, but also slightly melancholic. She was not as powerful and indestructible as the rumors said, and was the Dongfang Mansion's Mistress in charge.
"May I know why Second Furen asked me to come?”Xiao Yu asked.
The Second Mistress was still fiddling with her orchids and said,"This column orchid looks like it's about to die. What else can I do to save it?”
Xiao Yu didn't understand. Could it be that the Second Furen had asked him to come just for a pot of dying orchids?
Xiao Yu respectfully said,"Madam, life and death are determined by fate, wealth and nobility are determined by the heavens. This pot of orchid is about to die, which means that it doesn't have the blessing to live on and is enjoying the blessing of being loved by others."”
"Young Master, do you think this pot of orchids can turn around?”The Second Mistress stepped aside.
Xiao Yu came forward. The orchid leaves were yellow, as if no one had taken care of it for a long time. Xiao Yu shook his head and said,"This pot of orchids has already turned the world upside down.”
"Since he's going to die, I won't force him. Young Master, if there's no good way for my Ming Zhu, I only hope that he can live in peace in the last moments of his life.”The Dongfang Second Mistress was obviously very sad, but she said it calmly. What kind of woman could hold back her sadness?
"Xiao Yu will naturally do his best. Second Furen is very worried about Young Master Dongfang. It is really Young Master Dongfang's fortune to have a mother like you.”Xiao Yu said.
The Dongfang Second Mistress sighed and said faintly,""Although Mingzhu isn't my biological son, ever since Eldest Sister died, Mingzhu has been raised by me. This has been the same for fifteen years. Mingzhu has called me mother for fifteen years. Even if she isn't my biological son, she's better than my biological son. Which mother can see her son suffer alive? I really wish that I could be the one to suffer this pain for Mingzhu. My poor son.”The Dongfang Second Mistress was in tears. Her love for the Oriental Pearl Tower should be no less than that of the mother of the Oriental Pearl Tower.
"Who has been taking care of Young Master Dongfang ever since he fell ill?”Xiao Yu asked.
The Dongfang Second Mistress said," Old Master is busy with court affairs, and I'm busy with family matters. We can't spare too much time to take care of Mingzhu. Ever since Mingzhu fell ill, mother-in-law has been taking care of her."”
Dongfang Mingzhu had always been taken care of by Old Madam Dongfang. She must be very sad to see her grandson like this.
"Second Furen, I already know about the matter. If there's nothing else, Xiao Yu will take his leave first.”
The Dongfang Second Mistress nodded. The moment Xiao Yu turned around, he felt as if a sharp light had stabbed his back, but Xiao Yu still walked out with a calm expression.
"Little Meng, do you feel anything?”Xiao Yu said.
Meng Xiuming floated in from the window like a feather and said,""You suspect Second Madam?"
"From what she said to me, she is very eager to love her son, and she has no reason to poison him, and she doesn't have poison."”
Meng Xiuming said," The Second Mistress of Dongfang has no motive to harm the Oriental Pearl. Young Master, you should investigate that butler Qin Ying properly. Also, help Young Master Dongfang detoxify the poison first. If Young Master Dongfang dies, your reputation as the world's number one divine doctor will be ruined."”
Xiao Yu said,"This person naturally needs to be investigated, but Young Master Dongfang naturally can't die. There are so many things, what should I do?"”
"The number one in the world, Young Master Mingyue, has a time when he's helpless?" Meng Xiuming asked.”
Back then, the Wandering Know-it-all, Qi Fang, had also said the same thing. Back then, it was because he had met the red-clothed shadow killer, Meng Xiuming. However, Meng Xiuming no longer posed a threat to him. Was there anything else that could give him a bigger headache than this?
Xiao Yu said shamelessly,"Even the number one in the world, Young Master Ming Yue, has times when he can't do anything about it.”
How could this guy still be so mischievous at a time like this?
"What's wrong with me? I don't want to kill you with a single sword strike."”
"Little Meng, you're still so stubborn. What should I do with you?" Xiao Yu said.”
"Young Master Mingyue, I don't understand why you're doing this. Why?" Meng Xiu Ming said.”
Xiao Yu's eyes were suddenly covered with a layer of watery mist, and he said with a trembling voice: "Because I don't want you to get hurt. I want to protect you, but why won't you give me the chance? Little Meng, I also want to ask you why?”
Meng Xiuming was startled. This man who was usually smiling cheekily had suddenly become sorrowful. For him, for Meng Xiuming, Meng Xiuming felt as if his heart had been ruthlessly scratched by something. After a short while, Meng Xiuming regained his composure and said indifferently,"I have the ability to protect myself and not let myself get hurt, and you have the ability to protect yourself, right?”
Every time Xiao Yu said this, Meng Xiu Ming would have an illusion, but Meng Qi Xing's words would echo in his ears every time. Seven Star Shadow Kill couldn't have feelings. Once they had feelings, they would become the prey of others.
No, I can't, I can't.
Meng Xiuming held his head and retreated in pain. In the past ten years, he had suffered too much, too much, and Xiao Yu could not understand. When he was cultivating in the snow mountain, his master Shang Yunshi had also warned him that if he did not want to be hurt, he had to learn to be indifferent and not love.
Cold and unloving.
This was the advice her master had given her.
Xiao Yu tightly supported Meng Xiuming's swaying body and said,"Little Meng, what's wrong? Did you remember something?”
Meng Xiu Ming raised his eyes and met Xiao Yu's concerned eyes. He pushed Xiao Yu away and said,"I only remember Master and Hall Master saying that if you want to live freely, you have to learn to be indifferent and learn to cut down those who betray you one by one.”
When he spoke, he was so cold, like an iceberg that would not melt for a thousand years. Even if Xiao Yu was a erupting volcano, it could not melt the deep snow in his heart.
"Young Master Mingyue, protecting you is my mission. I advise you not to try to pry into my secrets.”Meng Xiuming regained his calm.
"Even if they are just ordinary friends?”
"You can't."
"Why?"
"Because Seven Star Shadow Kill doesn't need friends. Friends are just burdens.”
The room was silent. Meng Xiu Ming still left, leaving Xiao Yu standing there alone, like a stone statue, not making a sound for a long time.
" Little Meng, Meng Xiuming, what should I do to make your heart feel warmer? What exactly are those layers of deep snow that can't melt? Tell me, and I'll help you."
Meng Xiuming could no longer hear his voice.
"I really can't do it?" Xiao Yu asked.
"Young Master, I believe that Young Master Meng must have something he can't say. Besides, you two haven't been in contact for long. I can see that the sealed memories in his heart are slowly being opened.”
"Is that so? But why can't I see any changes in him? Why can't I feel anything?”Xiao Yu asked dully.
This was the first time he had seen Xiao Yu like this. In the past, even when facing death, he would still smile lightly. But this time, for the first time, he saw disappointment in Xiao Yu's eyes, a disappointment that Xiao Yu had never seen before.
"Little Meng, how much longer do you need? How much longer do you need?”Xiao Yu asked in a daze.
"Maybe it will be a long time, maybe it won't be long.”
"Sometimes, I like you very much, but sometimes, I really don't like you.”Xiao Yu turned his head to look.
Xiao Jiu walked in from outside the door." I'm just Young Master's Xiao Jiu."”
