433.Chapter 433: The Night of Burning Hearts
Pei Yuanhao leisurely carried the wine jug, poured himself a drink, poured a glass of wine, and slowly raised his eyes to look at me, under the candle flame, those eyes flashed with an indescribable strange light.
I gritted my teeth and finally walked back slowly and sat down.
"Light...... Ying ......" He took a sip of wine, slowly read my name, I don't know whether he was tasting the wine, or tasting these two words, after a long time, he said slowly: "This is a good name, more suitable for you than your original name." β
I still looked at him nervously, and although I didn't move, the blood on my body was almost trembling with his words.
"At that time, you jumped out of the boat, and you were as light as a bird. Until now, I don't think you're committing suicide, but feel like you've become an immortal. β
The softer his voice, the more frightened my heart became, and I was so scared that I didn't even dare to breathe, almost suffocating as if I was being strangled by the hand of fate, like a trapped beast that had been cornered.
As if sensing my gaze, with a hint of desperate ferocity, he suddenly said, "What are you afraid of?" β
ββ¦β¦β
He smiled: "You don't have to worry either. β
ββ¦β¦β
"I know that at that time, you suffered a lot of grievances, and Yuquan also said that you committed suicide a few times when you were in prison."
ββ¦β¦β
"So, I don't blame you for jumping ship."
If I don't mention the beginning, I only have sudden fear in my heart, but after the fear, I find that all the past perceptions have been resurrected, pain, helplessness, and despair...... In the end, hate.
Every paragraph is blood and tears, I thought it was a matter of the previous life, and I don't want to repay anything in this life, just pay me for the peace and happiness of this half of my life.
But now-
I looked at him, but saw that his gaze seemed to be darkened, and I lowered my head and poured myself wine, and said slowly: "You have suffered a lot, I know. β
His words are calm and plain, as if he is really just an old man, sitting in front of you, talking slowly with you about the past, no love, no hate, no hatred, no resentment, as if the past is just a gust of wind, blowing, passing, not even the coolness has been left.
But there was still no relaxation in my heart.
When he promised me to let me out of the palace, he was like now, speaking lightly, calmly as if nothing had happened, but when I was closest to hope, he gave me the most fatal blow.
After a long silence, I finally spoke, my voice hoarse as if it wasn't my own: "You-how did you find it-"
Before he finished speaking, there was another sound of footsteps outside the door.
Before I looked back, I had heard Liu San'er's whirring voice, but my heart was relieved all of a sudden, and when I turned my head, I saw him walking back with a red nose, the corners of his eyes were red, and his lips were slightly swollen. I've never eaten anything so spicy. β
As he spoke, he was still inhaling, and I also knew that I shouldn't say or do anything lightly at this time, so I could only gently push the bowl of tea in front of me over, and said lightly: "Rinse again, don't eat it." β
"Hmm." He nodded, took another long sip of tea, still frowning, and secretly stuck out his tongue.
In normal times, I would definitely laugh, but at this time, I can't laugh, and I don't even dare to laugh, so I can only look at him like this, and my eyes still have to hang on the opposite side, the man who has not said a word.
I don't know when he's going to make trouble, I just know that once he does, it's all over.
But Liu San'er still didn't seem to be aware of it, after drinking tea, she was a little better, turned her head to look at me again, and said with a smile: "In the future, when Li'er grows up, she must learn to eat spicy, don't make jokes like me." β
My face shook slightly.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the person on the other side standing up, and I suddenly opened my eyes nervously, and I saw him get up, smiled and said, "Speaking of Li'er, I actually prepared a gift for this child." β
"What?" When Liu San'er heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "This is not good. Yuan Gongzi, you saved me before and took care of me for so long, it's already a great favor, how can you still ask for your things? β
He smiled faintly, "It's not a big thing. It's just -- for the child, it's a greeting gift. β
After saying that, he took something out of his sleeve, and when I saw it, my eyes widened in surprise.
It was a red rope with a small shiny ornament hanging underneath, and if you looked closely, it turned out to be an orchid buckle made of gold!
My mind was messed up for a while--the orchid buckle,I fell off when I was in the Red Leaf Temple.,Later, although I still wanted to go back and look for it again.,But I didn't find it back.,I thought it was so lost.,But how could it be-
No, no, how could he possibly find the orchid button, I'm afraid he took it off his clothes.
"Huh?"
I was still thinking so in my heart, and Liu San'er on the side stood up in surprise all of a sudden, looked at the pendant, and said, "This-this thing-"
Pei Yuanhao raised his eyes and looked at him: "What?" β
Liu San'er carefully twisted it up and looked at it carefully, I was a little puzzled in my heart, I didn't know how he could be like this, I was puzzled, I heard him say: "How can this thing be in your hands." β
β¦β¦
What's going on? Has he seen this orchid buckle?
I was surprised for a while, but Pei Yuanhao's eyes flashed, glanced at me, and then looked at him: "Have you seen it?" β
"Hmm." San'er nodded vigorously and said: "It was a year or two ago, I went to the Red Leaf Temple to help, and when I was cleaning the Buddha Hall, I swept out this thing behind the Buddha flag, I saw that it was gold, and I was going to hand it over to the abbot who presided over the temple, but after the abbot saw it, he said that this thing was not in the temple. But he also said that this thing is related to me, let me carry it, and it may be useful in the future. β
At this moment, I was so shocked that I couldn't speak, and looked at him stupidly.
It turned out that the orchid buckle was picked up by him.
At this time, I suddenly remembered that when I was in the Red Leaf Temple, I was angry and told me that there was a villager in Jixiang Village who would help them clean the Buddhist hall, but it was just a random sentence, and I didn't want to remember it; Now I finally understand why that little novice would say those inexplicable things to me, it turns out that he said it because of Liu San'er!
I tugged at his sleeve with a little trembling: "So, what's wrong with this buttonβ"
He looked at me, as if he was a little ashamed, and hesitated for a moment before saying: "At that time, I-your health was not good, and the doctor said that you should use good medicine, otherwise you would--have really no money at home at that time, so I just took this as such." β
By the way, he mentioned it once, because I was seriously ill and needed good medicine, he used to be a thing, but I never imagined that what he should have was this orchid buckle!
I looked at the golden, lifelike orchid buckle in his palm.
It was torn off Pei Yuanhao's chest and put on my chest, and then it was lost and picked up by him, but in order to save my life, he pawned it out, and later-later-I slowly turned my head and looked at Pei Yuanhao, who was standing on the side with a gloomy face, he seemed to be a little shocked, and there was not much change for a while, but those eyes were terrifyingly dark.
What is this qiΔ?
Margin? Or is it sin?
Since I met Liu San'er for the second time, I have believed that I have a fate with him, otherwise, he would not be among all living beings, and the words he said to me were the first warmth I felt when I came to the people; And I committed suicide by jumping into the river, but I was rescued by him, and even found out that he was Liu Shizhou's son and Liu Yi's younger brother.
But now, I realize that our fate is deeper than I knew.
But when I knew-
Thinking of this, I bit my lower lip and slowly raised my head, Pei Yuanhao looked at us, a smile appeared on his angular face, but there seemed to be no smile in those deep eyes, and said: "I like to collect some interesting things, I accidentally found this from Jubao Zhai, and I have been staying by my side, thinking that Liu Gongzi's child is about to be born, so I used this as a meeting gift, but I didn't expectββ"
He glanced at me: "It's been around for a long time. β
Liu San'er also laughed: "If you want to say that there is really fate in this world, otherwise, it would not be such a coincidence." I just don't know, who dropped this thing, and who fulfilled this fate? β
Hearing this, my face turned pale, and I reluctantly smiled: "Why bother to find the source, some things are just right to be broken here." β
After saying this, he glanced at me.
I lowered my head and looked at the orchid buckle, the golden light was a little dazzling, but it was not as good as his gaze that made me feel palpitations, and now I understand how he found me. At first, he didn't know that this orchid buckle was left behind by me, maybe he thought that if I was still alive and had no long things, I could only sell some things, so it would not be difficult to find this orchid buckle and find me again.
At this time, I suddenly felt a little funny, laughed sadly, and laughed sadly.
I recall that when I was in Jixiang Village, I wrote letters for others, and all of them changed my handwriting because I was afraid of being recognized; In the embroidery workshop, he never used Shu embroidery, because he had my embroidery in his hands. Every move, I am cautious, for fear of crossing the thunder pool by half a step, I just want to quietly guard Liu San'er and live the rest of my life.
But I didn't expect that I had already left the most dangerous thing, but still-
I looked at Liu San'er beside me a little blankly, looking at the happy smile on his face, I only felt helpless in my heart, completely helpless, as if the last bit of strength in my body that could hold on was taken away.
After all, can't I escape?
It's come to this point, I've ended it with death, God still has such an arrangement, why can't I get rid of it, can't escape, why?! How long will I be entangled with him?
Can't even die?
Pei Yuanhao kept looking at me heavily, with a hint of depression on his face, and after a long time, he finally smiled and said, "I want to hug the child." β
