The shadow fell straight down from above the maid's head, and the daylight from the window on one side turned into a giant light bulb that only had the function of lighting.
She just looked at Lu Shizhen's profile reflected in the window glass, her slightly upturned eyes with drooping eyelashes. There was a playful disdain in her expression, but also a frightening sinisterness. The coldness instantly seeped from her scalp to every part of her body, as if it wanted to devour her.
In fact, Lu Shizhen didn't want to pull a servant in such a rough manner.
But what else could she do if she didn't rush over to grab him? This person was about to attack Xu Shiyue in the next second, and she didn't know how many points would be deducted from her score, which was already negative to the point of a bug.
Lu Shizhen looked at the maid beside her, feeling somewhat resentful.
She felt that the servants in this family were simply here to help her gain points. The points that the original owner had lost due to the bug were also due to the contributions of these servants in the family!
The room, which was noisy just now, suddenly became quiet, and everyone was trembling with fear.
The maid was so frightened that she dared not speak a word, and her arrogant and domineering attitude just now disappeared completely.
Only Xu Shiyue stood there calmly.
The slender arm was still tightly holding the box at hand, indifferent and quiet, as if it had nothing to do with the storm.
But she is the center of this storm.
Lu Shizhen knew that the maid would not and did not have the courage to repeat what she had just said to Xu Shiyue, so she turned to look at Xu Shiyue: "Are you okay?"
Xu Shiyue shook his head lightly.
It's not that I'm fine, I just don't think it's necessary to tell this person where I'm in pain.
The maid just now walked very fast, and the edge of the box hit Xu Shiyue's calf, leaving a bruise.
The fair calves were smudged with a chaotic blue color, looking dirty and particularly unsightly.
Lu Shizhen looked at it more carefully than anyone else, so a bruise like this certainly could not be hidden from her eyes.
She frowned slightly and ordered another maid, "Go get the medicine."
"Hey." The maid nodded immediately and ran out like the wind.
The room was still so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. The moment Lu Shizhen's voice rang out, Xu Shiyue knew that she had seen the injury on his leg.
Avoidance was as ineffective as ever. The sound of a chair being dragged rang out in the room like a solo, and the next second Xu Shiyue felt the familiar warmth of a palm on her wrist.
Lu Shizhen: "The chair is right behind you, sit down first."
Perhaps he realized that the current situation posed no threat to him, or perhaps he felt a sense of propriety from the man holding his wrist.
Xu Shiyue didn't say anything. She just followed Lu Shizhen's instructions and sat down, holding the box in her hand.
The maid walked very quickly, and while she was talking, she had brought over various medicines for injuries and sprains, filling the table.
Lu Shizhen nodded to her with satisfaction, and pointed to the maid next to her and said, "Tell Aunt Sun that she doesn't need to come tomorrow."
The maid wanted to argue and beg for mercy, but she didn't want to be punished for her own evil deeds. The maid who was holding the medicine, who had long been dissatisfied with her way of doing things, answered very quickly. Before she could even open her mouth, she agreed: "Okay, Miss."
Lu Shizhen was very satisfied with the cleverness of this little maid. He looked at her for a moment longer and then said to the people in the room, "Everyone, go out."
People came out of the room one after another, and the moment the door was closed, the silence in the room became gentle.
After what happened just now, Lu Shizhen really felt worried about the servants at home.
Besides, who knows more about legs than her
The sound of the bottle cap being opened was particularly crisp. Lu Shizhen squatted down beside Xu Shiyue and said, "This is a blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing ointment. It may hurt a little when you push it on. Just bear with it for a while."
The shadow blocked the light on the side of Xu Shiyue's face, and she just looked at the figure beside her with a dim gaze.
She did not respond to Lu Shizhen for a long time, and Lu Shizhen seemed to be just informing her. As soon as he finished speaking, he smeared the milky white ointment on Xu Shiyue's legs.
A cotton swab dipped in ointment rolled over the bruise on my calf. The coolness was slightly bewitching and gentle, and the pain became slight.
Xu Shiyue was somewhat surprised that Miss Lu could control her strength in this way, and then, as if she had figured something out, a sneer suddenly flashed through her mind.
I was almost fooled by her.
This is another drama where the person is the instigator but also acts as the messenger of justice.
It would be a shame if he didn't become a screenwriter with such a good script.
Lu Shizhen was very familiar with applying medicine on legs, and he had applied the medicine to Xu Shiyue in no time.
As she packed up the medicine bottles, she said, "The bruises will go away tomorrow. If you're worried, I've left the medicine on the bedside table for you."
"Thank you." Xu Shiyue's voice was light and his distant attitude seemed to be trying to drive him away.
Lu Shizhen didn't notice it. Her attention was on the huge box that Xu Shiyue had just protected. Thinking of the maid who had just kicked it hard, she took the initiative to ask, "Do you want me to help you open the box and see if there's anything wrong with it?"
Xu Shiyue paused when he heard this.
She wanted to refuse, but she knew that she couldn't see it now and couldn't check it carefully. After hesitating for a while, she nodded: "Thank you for the trouble."
Lu Shizhen moved very carefully, and after opening the box, she found a beautiful cello inside.
A faint pine scent emanated from inside, and light flowed through the window onto the body of the piano, drawing a beautiful curve.
Lu Shizhen remembered that the original owner seemed to have seen Xu Shiyue playing the cello on the stage during a school performance, and became interested in keeping this moonlight for himself.
The ball faded from its brown color and flew slowly around Lu Shizhen, explaining, "This is the cello that Xu Shiyue's mother gave her. It has been deposited in the school's symphony orchestra. The original owner brought it back from school specifically to please her."
"This must be considered a relic." Lu Shizhen carefully examined the beautiful and heavy cello and talked to Xiaoqiu in his heart.
"Yeah." Xiaoqiu also nodded.
Both of them couldn't help but feel that the original owner had done something humane.
"How about it."
Just as Man and Tong were conversing in their hearts, Xu Shiyue's voice rang out.
Lu Shizhen did not dare to neglect it. He held the cello carefully and awkwardly, and said, "I think there is nothing wrong with the body of the cello. You can try to touch it."
Their fingers intertwined for a moment, feeling slightly cool and warm, but then suddenly separated in just a second.
Many times, a person's blindness does not mean that she can't do anything well.
Just like at this moment, Xu Shiyue took the cello from Lu Shizhen, and skillfully placed it between his legs without even hesitation. This one movement was much more professional than Lu Shizhen's clumsy way of holding it.
The bow draws across the taut string, and the resonant vibrations produce a low and melodious sound.
Xu Shiyue sat on the chair and played her cello as if testing it.
In fact, Xu Shiyue didn't know what song she should play to test whether there was any problem with the piano. When the bow fell on the strings, her wrist pulled up involuntarily.
Fate was really unfair to her.
The slight trembling of the strings lacks the innocence that a girl of this age should have, and the rich syllables are filled with countless sorrows.
Like the wind, like the clouds.
Like a silk ribbon floating in the air, lonely and helpless, swaying without any faith in living.
Although Lu Shizhen had no knowledge of music theory, he suddenly stopped all the movements in his hands.
The vibration of the strings seemed to resonate with her heartbeat, and she seemed to hear Xu Shiyue's mood, which was as deep as the music.
The last time Xu Shiyue played the violin, he was still sitting under the huge window of the piano room.
But now things and people have changed. The small window frames the sunlight in a square shape, not giving the girl any more.
The sunlight of the past seems to overlap with the sun of the moment on the glass window, generously depicting the girl's upright figure.
Her long, slightly curly black hair cascaded down from her shoulders like a waterfall, revealing a small portion of her clean and cold profile.
The girl's hands holding the strings were straight but not tense, and there was a sense of ease and ease in her elegance. Her light movements slowly stretched out along with the music, but without being lazy.
She felt even more that trapping Xu Shiyue in darkness was the stupidest thing that fate and the system had ever done.
Such a person should stand on a bigger stage and show everyone the music she plays, which shines brightly.
She wanted her to get better.
Lu Shizhen's eyes became particularly firm, and the sound of the piano beside his ears suddenly stopped.
Xu Shiyue did not finish playing the piece she had chosen at random. Like an irresponsible musician, she spoke to her audience in a cold voice: "Thank you, Miss Lu. There is no problem with the piano."
Lu Shizhen suddenly felt a little confused, as if the novel she was engrossed in suddenly disappeared.
However, she couldn't urge the lady in front of her, so she could only nod her head in disappointment: "Oh, okay."
"That's good. I won't bother you anymore." Lu Shizhen said, and without waiting for Xu Shiyue to chase him away, he turned around and left tactfully.
Often, many things that have been bothering us for a long time suddenly take a turn for the better at such an unexpected moment.
At the moment when Lu Shizhen was particularly determined to cure Xu Shiyue's eyes, she noticed something.
In the inconspicuous corner on the left side of Xu Shiyue's room, there was a potted plant that looked lifeless.
There was a strange layer of moisture floating on the moist soil, as if it had been watered too much and was about to be drowned.
Lu Shizhen's eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurried out of Xu Shiyue's room, and couldn't wait to tell Xiaoqiu: "I know where Xu Shiyue's medicine went!"
"Where! Where!" Xiaoqiu was extremely excited and moved closer to Lu Shizhen's face.
"She poured it all into the potted plant in her room." Lu Shizhen shared carefully.
The ball recalled the room it had just scanned of Xu Shiyue and had some impression of it: "Is it the dying plant? I was wondering why it was dying of waterlogging when the house wasn't leaking."
Then it seemed to have thought of something, and flashed a flash of light to Landing Shi Zhen: "Host, are you planning to confiscate this plant? This way, Xu Shiyue won't be able to throw away the medicine, and will have to accept the treatment obediently!"
Lu Shizhen's eyes were hurt by the flash of the ball. Listening to its ideas that were full of deductions, she couldn't help but complain, "You are the original owner, right?"
The little ball felt wronged and sat on Lu Shizhen's head: "Then what do you want to do, host?"
"I want to raise it back." Lu Shizhen said seriously.
.
From that day on, there was a pot of plant in the garden greenhouse that was about to die from waterlogging.
The entire villa belongs to Lu Shizhen, so it is not a problem to replace a plant without telling Xu Shiyue who can't see it.
The bright morning sun brings with it these fresh scents. The garden is especially quiet as it is not yet time to go to work.
The glass of the greenhouse is hung with slowly falling water droplets, the slender leaves of the plants slowly stretch out, and the rich green is full of tranquility.
And in this silence, a figure moved the leaves.
The shovel turned over the moist soil in the flowerpot. Lu Shizhen squatted in front of the flowerpot and muttered softly: "Today is better than yesterday. They will take you to bask in the sun later, so you can get better faster."
"But you still have to go to work after you recover, and your plant brother won't be able to bear it. The medicine is indeed non-toxic, but it will be killed if it is watered like this."
At this point, Lu Shizhen touched the leaf in front of him with pity and sighed, "You can't blame your master. She doesn't trust me."
The corner of the shovel gently scraped the surface soil. Lu Shizhen leaned his little face on his arm, feeling a little worried.

But the sadness dissipated after a while, and he returned to his usual motivated self: "Anyway, as long as you stay alive, over time, she will see that you are not dead, and she will feel at ease to receive treatment."
"After all, who doesn't want to live a good life? You too, right?" Lu Shizhen's eyebrows relaxed slightly, looking at the leaf in front of him that was slightly raised, as if asking it, or asking himself.
The moist soil was gradually turned loose by the shovel and gaps appeared. Lu Shizhen supported himself and stood up.
She finished her work for the day and said to the plant, "Okay, I'm leaving now. Live well."
The old iron door was closed by the girl with a creaking sound, and the next second a dark face appeared behind the shelf full of potted plants.
Xu Shiyue also walked out from behind this person.
Luo Ji's eyes were filled with disgust and disdain: "Miss, what is this lunatic talking about here, talking nonsense to a plant?"!
