"Brother Xiao, what's wrong?" Dongfang Mingyue walked over." What were you talking about with Grandma just now?”
"Oh, nothing, just chatting.”Xiao Yu came back to his senses,"Ming Yue, you said that your grandmother also knows medicine?"”
"Yes, the last time you were poisoned, Grandma knew that you were poisoned with a very powerful poison. However, she did not make an antidote to save you.”Dongfang Mingyue said apologetically.
Xiao Yu thought for a moment. Old Madam Dongfang could tell at a glance, which meant that her medical skills were very good. The poison she had suffered last time was very strange, so it was reasonable that she did not concoct an antidote.
A servant hurried over and said,"Young Master Mingyue, Miss, a guest has arrived and is waiting in Young Master Mingyue's room."”
"Oh, a guest? What guest?" Dongfang Mingyue asked.
"He didn't say. It seems like he's here to visit Young Master Mingyue.”the servant replied.
Xiao Yu frowned slightly.”
"I don't know." The servant replied respectfully.
"Since there's a guest visiting, then Brother Xiao, let's hurry up and take a look.”Dongfang Mingyue said excitedly as she pulled Xiao Yu back.
After passing through a small path, the room of the Oriental Pearl Tower had long disappeared around the corner.
In front of him was the guest room of the Dongfang mansion, which was where Xiao Yu lived.
"The guest is waiting inside." the servant said.
A young man was drinking tea in the room, his slender and long fingers elegantly holding a blue and white teacup. He walked out of the door when he heard the sound. He was dressed in a flamboyant red robe, and his black hair was draped over his shoulders, fluttering slightly in the breeze. His cold eyes were like a lake that was about to freeze. His gaze was firm, and the corners of his eyes were raised. The Phoenix Feather Sword in his hand flashed with silver light in the cold wind. Seeing the arrival of Xiao Yu and Dongfang Mingyue, her gentle facial features gently parted her red lips and cupped her hands,"The red-robed shadow guard Meng Xiuming has come under the orders of the Seven Star Hall Master to protect Young Master Mingyue.”
"Young Master Meng is too polite." Xiao Yu also returned the greeting, his smile gentle and elegant. The moment the two of them looked at each other, it was like a calm lake that was once again stirred up by a thousand ripples, slowly spreading in each other's hearts.
They had met every day, but he said it as if it was the first time they had met. Outsiders could not tell that he was hypocritical and pretending.
"So it's Young Master Meng. What a distinguished guest. I'll definitely prepare a banquet for Young Master Meng.”Dongfang Mingyue said.
"Miss Dongfang is too polite. Meng Xiuming is not a guest, so there is no need to receive him like this.”Meng Xiuming said.
"Oh, by the way, Miss Dongfang, Xiao Jiu has always wanted to ask you about something. I hope Miss Dongfang can enlighten me." Xiao Jiu said respectfully.
"What is it?" Dongfang Mingyue toot and asked in confusion.
"Let's talk over there." Xiao Jiu said in a low voice," Actually, it's about my young master.”
Dongfang Mingyue glanced at Xiao Yu and blushed secretly. She followed Xiao Jiu to the small pavilion over there.
Xiao Yu watched as Xiao Jiu pulled Dongfang Mingyue away and clicked his tongue."Xiao Jiu really understands me." Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows and said with a smile,"It's windy here. Let's talk inside.”
As he spoke, he pulled Meng Xiuming into the room and closed the door.
In the room, the two of them stood with their backs to each other. The sunlight cast a mottled shadow through the window.
"I knew you would come back.”Xiao Yu said as he stood behind Meng Xiuming.
"Because I had to come back." Meng Xiu Ming turned around and looked at Xiao Yu.
"Not only that, but I also gave you a reason to come back openly. I won't lose the face of you killing Meng Xiuming, and I'll also let you return to my side.”Xiao Yu said proudly.
Meng Xiuming was puzzled." Did you write this letter again?”
Xiao Yu rubbed his nose and said,"You can say that, but that letter was indeed personally written by Master Dongfang."”
"Why did you let me appear in front of everyone? Don't you know that if I didn't come back, you would be in a lot less danger.”Meng Xiuming asked.
"I was just betting with myself."
"Bet on what?"
"Bet on whether your heart is really as cold as the legends say, untouchable?”
"And the result?" Meng Xiuming raised his eyebrows.
"If you come back, I win. You have feelings. You have feelings for me. Otherwise, you wouldn't have returned time and time again.”Xiao Yu said.
"Xiao Yu, I've said it before, you can't touch my heart, because my heart was once moved, but it was still frozen.”
"You want to kill me again? I don't care, because you've already attacked once, and these hands didn't kill me.”Xiao Yu slowly caressed Meng Xiu Ming's hand that was holding the sword. It was so weak, but it was holding a Phoenix Feather Sword that was shining with a cold light.
Slowly, Xiao Yu held Meng Xiuming's hand in his palm and said with incomparable affection,"This pair of hands is not that heartless, because this pair of hands once caressed the zither for me.”
Playing the zither.
"Junior Sister, you're still reading so hard? Stop reading and play the zither for Senior Brother.”A boy was lying on the grass, bored. Under the shadow of the tree, a girl was reading a thick sword manual.
"Shixiong, if you can beat me in a counter move, I will play the zither for Shixiong.”The little girl put down the sword manual in her hand and said. A breeze blew past, lifting the girl's black hair that was draped over her shoulders and twirling it.
"I'll play the zither first before practicing my swordsmanship. If I win against Junior Sister, Junior Sister will have to play the zither for me for the rest of her life.”The little boy said mischievously. The girl was obviously stunned and her face instantly turned red. It was like the morning glow rising from the sky, bright and moving.
The little boy laughed." Junior Sister, I'm just joking. Why are you blushing?"”
The little girl was angry and chased after the boy to hit him. The two children's figures appeared in the flowers.
"Young Master Mingyue, I think you're thinking too much. These hands only know how to kill with a sword and not play the zither.”Meng Xiuming withdrew his hand, pulling Xiao Yu back from his beautiful memories. Xiao Yu's hand was raised in front of Meng Xiuming and him.
"Come with me." Xiao Yu pulled Meng Xiuming and flew out of the window without any explanation. The wind blew past his ears and made a hissing sound.
Meng Xiu Ming didn't dodge, just like the first time he was pulled by Xiao Yu. He pulled him and flew over the houses of the Eastern Mansion, over the forest full of dead branches, and over the lake. Meng Xiu Ming thought that Xiao Yu would pull him and fly all the way to the ends of the earth, to a place where no one knew them, but Xiao Yu stopped at a place.
Behind him was a vast and desolate land filled with bits of snow, and in front of him was a cliff that was ten thousand feet high.
Xiao Yu pulled Meng Xiuming's hand and shouted towards the empty valley: "Master, Master's wife, I've finally found Little Seven. I promise you that I will protect her well and not let her get hurt again. -- Mother, look, I've brought your future daughter-in-law to see you.”
Meng Xiuming once again shook off Xiao Yu's hand and coldly said,"Xiao Yu, I think you're crazy."
"I am crazy. On that rainy night ten years ago, when I found out that you were still alive ten years later, when I saw you for the first time, I was already crazy, Little Seven.”Xiao Yu shouted with heartache.
Meng Xiu Ming shook his head and retreated step by step. He looked at Xiao Yu in disbelief and said,"No, Xiao Yu, you can't. I'm Meng Xiuming, I'm Red Clothed Shadow Killer.”
Meng Xiuming wanted to fly away again. Only in this way could he avoid the demon that could eat him up. However, his hand was tightly held by Xiao Yu. He wanted to shake it off, but it was in vain. Xiao Yu exerted a little force and pulled Meng Xiuming into his arms. He had pulled him into his arms like this the last time. He had cried in his arms the last time, but this time she did not cry or struggle.
"Little Seven, don't run anymore, don't hide anymore, don't push me away. I've been searching for you for ten years.”Xiao Yu muttered in Meng Xiuming's ear. He felt a great heartache and also a great pity, like a lost treasure that had been recovered.
Meng Xiu Ming's heart was already rippling, and now it was even more turbulent. This handsome man, this number one man in the world, Young Master Ming Yue, was the first and perhaps only one who cared for her like a man cared for a woman.
The Senior Brother Shen Chenchen who had been waiting for him bitterly was still in the Seven Stars Hall, and Xiao Yu was trying to persuade him to stay.
If he lost it, would he really not regret it?
However, in order to become Meng Xiuming, she had sacrificed too much.
The happy childhood was gone, the love from his father and mother was gone, and the laughter was gone. What was left was Meng Qixing's face when he saved him, Shang Yunshi's cold whipping, scolding, and forcing him to kneel in the snow to reflect on his mistakes. He could not be soft-hearted.
Meng Xiuming closed his eyes and sighed softly."Xiao Yu, is it worth it? For a Little Seven who can't remember what happened ten years ago, is it worth it?”
Xiao Yu's grip on Meng Xiuming tightened a little. The two of them were so intimate, and he thought that there would be no such possibility in this life, but the heavens still cared for him, allowing him to find him again.
"The past may be painful, but in the future, I will let you know that I once existed in your life.”Xiao Yu said.
Meng Xiu Ming sighed faintly." Master always said that I'm too soft-hearted and not suitable to be the Seven Stars Shadow Killer. One day, I'll become someone else's prey. Xiao Yu, if gentleness is a weapon, you've already used it to perfection, so that I have no reason to refute you, nor do I have any reason to refute you.”
He let go of her and looked at her quietly in the cold wind. His eyes were filled with disbelief. This stubborn little junior sister had returned?
Meng Xiuming's hand caressed Xiao Yu's eyebrows, wandering over the contours of his face, both familiar and unfamiliar. He asked lightly,"Can you never forget Little Seven?”
"Yes, I'll never forget it, and I can't forget it.”Xiao Yu said firmly.
"Even if I'm dead, I can't forget?”
"Yes."
"Then," The corners of Meng Xiu Ming's mouth curled into a strange smile. It was said that Meng Xiu Ming didn't know how to smile. It wasn't that he didn't know how to smile, but that those who had seen him smile had all died under his sword. Meng Xiu Ming would only smile before someone died. Accompanied by a strange smile, the following sentence was spat out,"Xiao Yu, I'm sorry."”
Xiao Yu looked at Meng Xiuming in disbelief. His eyes became more and more unfocused, and his eyes widened as if he couldn't believe it. He stretched out his hand, wanting to grab Meng Xiuming's red cloak that was gradually drifting away, but Meng Xiuming just stood there, unmoving. His red cloak fluttered in the cold wind, so dazzling.
Meng Xiuming looked at Xiao Yu's collapsed face and said,"Once a fox doesn't suspect anything, it will fall into the hunter's trap. Once a killer has feelings, it will be like a fox without any suspicion, and will only fall into the hunter's trap. Xiao Yu, you should know this, right?”
Xiao Yu, you've always been looking for Little Seven, and now the one standing in front of you is the Red Clothed Shadow Killer Meng Xiuming.
Lost in the past, stumbling and waiting for someone to come true, thinking about the smiling face, how many masks there are.
The cold wind blew his black hair in the air. His red cloak was blown away by the wind, revealing an enchanting and presumptuous red flower. It was as beautiful as blood. The cliff was ten thousand feet high, so dazzling that people did not dare to look straight at it.
