After talking about their hearts, Xia Ge and Gu Peiju returned to the Pill Hall.
The people in the hall were still lively and lively, and when they saw Xia Ge, everyone could not help but say "Xia Xiaozhang".
Xia Ge still smirked, and while pretending to be stupid, he couldn't help but glance in one direction.
Once or twice was fine, but Xia Ge glanced in that direction many times, intentionally or unintentionally, which inevitably caught Gu Peijiu's attention.
She followed her direction and saw Ye Ze with a bad face, as well as Chu Yi, who was holding his cheeks next to him and playing with cherries bored.
She paused and asked knowingly, "What are you looking at?"
Xia Ge let out an "ah", and when she realized that she was caught, she scratched her head, "I'm looking at Ye Ze..."
Gu Peijiu: "Oh?"
There was no emotion in his voice.
Xia Ge said: "I think he is a little strange today."
As Xia Ge spoke, he couldn't help but glanced in his direction. It happened that Ye Ze raised his head slightly.
For a moment, they looked at each other.
The dark pupils of the young man were filled with deep confusion and bewilderment, but they were looking at Xia Ge in the next second.
At that moment, all the confusion suddenly faded away, and in its place, it seemed as if he had remembered something... panic and disgust.
In a flash.
However, it was just a flash, enough for Xia Ge to be stunned in court.
"What's wrong?" Gu Peijiu sensitively noticed that Xia Ge was in a trance.
On the other side, Ye Ze seemed to regain his senses, and then hurriedly and stiffly showed a pale smile to Xia Ge.
Xia Ge retracted his eyes, "...It's nothing."
Gu Peijiu looked sideways at Ye Ze.
The young man has lowered his head, holding his head with both hands, his body trembling slightly, and he seems to be in a bad state. Chu Yi, who was next to him, seemed to be asking him what was wrong. She sensed Gu Peijiu's gaze, and she also looked sideways, and their eyes were intertwined.
The girl's dark almond eyes are particularly beautiful. They are not like her sister's light brown with clear light, but black like black glass. Under the shimmering soft and sweet color, there seems to be something deeper and deeper hidden. thing.
It is like a dark river flowing through the bottom of the mountain, hiding secrets and desires.
And that river, the moment she and Gu Peijiu looked at each other, revealed a clue. However, it was soon hidden in the bright pupil color, and the sweet and polite smile seemed to be nothing.
Gu Peijiu narrowed his eyes slightly, then he looked back casually and glanced at Xia Ge.
The girl lowered her head, and slipped her lovesickness to the end of her hair mischievously, tying herself into a beautiful bow. The broken hair in the front was slightly scattered, covering her fair and soft cheeks.
The girl has always been very thin. When she first entered Danfeng, she felt the thinness of her bones. She looked like she could not find the next meal after eating, so her bones were prominent and her cheeks looked a little angular. In addition, she was climbing trees to catch birds. , messing around everywhere, more like a tomboy. But now, Danfeng's food is not bad, and it's the time to grow her body. The girl has grown some flesh, but she doesn't look fat because of it, but her flesh and bones are more symmetrical, her cheeks are softer, and she occasionally looks back and smiles, with dark cat eyes. With that white and tender face, she is a skinny little girl.
It's just that although this thin little girl lowered her head, her black hair hanging down covered her face, Gu Peijiu could also feel the lingering feeling of oppression around her.
Gu Peijiu suddenly asked, "Worried about him?"
Xia Ge was silent for a while, "... Neither."
After a pause, she said a little angry: "I don't need to worry about others."
Although he tried hard to convince himself that it was nothing, Ye Ze just glanced at him casually, but he had to admit that Xia Ge was a little bit hurt by that look.
It was nothing to be questioned and blamed by Ye Ze for what happened to Guilongyu before. Her behavior was very doubtful, and there were rumors of a puppet master. Ye Ze always hated those things, and he was too aggressive that day. Excusable.
After Baimeng Cave, Xia Ge originally thought that their relationship had almost recovered.
But... it doesn't seem to be the case.
Xia Ge didn't know what happened or what was wrong, but when he was suddenly looked at like this, Xia Ge felt that his mentality was a little broken.
In fact, if the relationship has been collapsing, it's okay to be looked at like this, it doesn't hurt, but when you feel that your relationship with someone has almost recovered, and you can continue to be good friends who drink together, you are suddenly looked at like this.
will hurt.
Gu Peijiu said, "You look sad."
Xia Ge: "I didn't..."
Suddenly, her words were interrupted.
Her slightly cold hand was held by a warm hand, Gu Peijiu followed her and said, "Well, you are not sad."
Xia Ge suddenly didn't know what to say.
Gu Peijiu said softly, "Whether you are sad or not, I will always be here."
It’s okay to be sad, but don’t show a picture—
I look like I have nothing left.
Gu Peijiu thought, that way, she would feel a little useless.
The moment Gu Peijiu's voice fell, Xia Ge felt as if a sugar had melted into his heart, and it was warm.
She suddenly remembered that day, after talking with Ye Ze, she was in a gloomy mood, squatting outside the class, and when the pouring rain poured down, this person came and tilted the ink umbrella for her.
Xia Ge suddenly didn't feel very hurt.
She thought that sometimes people should be content.
if I get it I am lucky, but if not, it is fate.
Buddhism is not bad at all.
After the piercing feeling disappeared, Xia Ge came back to his senses, and couldn't help but murmur: "...But why?"
Gu Peijiu: "Huh?"
Xia Ge said bluntly, "Just now, Ye Ze looked at me strangely."
With the years she has known about Ye Ze, she will never look at her that way for no apparent reason.
It's like... looking at the enemy's eyes.
Although it was only for a second, the sharpness, fear, and hatred were vividly expressed in that instant.
If Ye Ze was just teasing her, then he could definitely get the Oscar statuette.
He had absolutely no reason to do so.
Although I think in my heart that some Buddhist system is good, if you ignore me, I will ignore you.
But few people will easily let go of a friend who has experienced ups and downs together and helped each other for many years just because of one look.
Sharing suffering with Gan Yi.
Xia Ge understood this very well, so rather than Buddhism, she actually wanted to understand why Ye Ze looked at her that way.
Gu Peijiu said, "Baimeng Point."
Xia Ge was taken aback.
Gu Peijiu said lightly, "Maybe he saw something in Baimeng Cave."
She took her hand and said, "If you're worried, you might as well ask yourself."
Xia Ge thought about it too, raised his eyes to look at Ye Ze, but suddenly met Chu Yi's clear and soft black eyes.
She held her chin, her snow-white hands were holding red cherries beside Ye Ze's lips, and that action seemed to be feeding Ye Ze cherries.
It also seemed that looking at Xia Ge was just an unintentional glance back.
Chu Yi smiled at her, and his eyes swept across Gu Peijiu's hand holding her.
For some reason, Xia Ge, who clearly consciously concealed his identity well, couldn't lift his feet the moment he saw Chu Yi.
Gu Peijiu: "Why don't you go?"
After a long while, Xia Ge replied, "Senior sister."
"Um?"
"...Do you think that girl's eyes are beautiful?"
"Who?"
"The one beside Ye Ze."
Gu Peijiu glanced at Chu Yi again.
Chu Yi held her chin and looked at Gu Peijiu again, her black eyes blinked, and she tilted her head and said something to Ye Ze.
Ye Ze lowered his head dully, not knowing whether to respond or not.
But Chu Yi laughed again.
Smile sweetly.
Gu Peijiu was silent for a while, then commented: "Bright eyes are good at it."
Paused.
"Gu Panshenghui."
Xia Ge suddenly felt very satisfied.
The memories of the past are fleeting, and the unspeakable suffering experienced by these eyes at that time seems to be worth it at this moment.
"I also think it's beautiful," she said.
When the child can't see, she thinks her eyes are very beautiful.
So, try to make her see everything in this world again.
Gu Peijiu didn't make Xia Ge proud for too long, and continued to comment objectively: "It just looks like that."
Those eyes look docile and sweet, innocent and innocent, but if you look closely, you can see that there is a murderous intention hidden in those eyes, which is full of cruelty, and it is not a good thing.
"I know."
Xia Ge clenched her hand slightly, "That's why..."
She knows.
It is because she knows.
Therefore, I want to let the butterfly living in the darkness slowly fly out of the dark cage and see the light in this world.
Xia Ge: "That's why I hope she can see farther with these beautiful eyes."
"It's beautiful." Gu Peijiu said suddenly, looking at her.
Xia Ge was taken aback, "Huh?"
Gu Peijiu turned her face away slightly and said, "...Your eyes are also beautiful."
Xia Ge: "… "
Such a straight-forward, no-nonsense compliment really comes off guard.
But from the senior sister, I feel it is right.
... The elder sister said that she would not lie to her.
Xia Ge suddenly felt that her face was a little hot, she coughed twice, and said embarrassedly: "Ah... Really... Haha, I also think it's pretty haha."
Just when Xia Ge was immersed in her sister's sudden praise, Gu Peijiu said, "Are you sure you don't want to ask?"
"They seem to be gone."
Xia Ge raised his eyes and was definitely leaving.
Ye Ze looked preoccupied, Chu Yao was on the side, and the two left the Pill Hall side by side.
Looks like a pair of wall men.
Xia Ge tilted his head: "Don't ask."
So fine.
==
Outside the Dan Palace.
"Just leave like this?" Chu Yi's voice was soft, "Aren't you saying goodbye to Xia Xiaozhang?"
When "Xia Xiaozhang Ling" slipped from the tip of his tongue, Chu Yi always felt a strange feeling, as if the person who had been with him all the time had suddenly become another person he didn't know.
This feeling really sucks.
Chu Yi thought.
Ye Ze said, "...No need."
"Aze." Chu Yi suddenly said.
Ye Ze was stunned.
Chu Yi laughed, sweetly, "If you don't call me brother, can you let me call you that?"
Ye Ze: "..."
After a while, he said, "Whatever you want."
He was not in the mood to dwell on these insignificant titles.
On Dan Peak, there are many maple leaves, falling with the mountain wind.
Looking at the sea of clouds rolling around the mountain peak, Ye Ze thought of the moment he saw Xia Wuyin, that soft outline, delicate face...not like a boy.
It was that face, once, again, that overlapped with the girl wearing the bell in the fantasy world of the White Dream Cave.
Kind of suffocating.
- Ye Ze, why are you still not dead
At the moment when he subconsciously showed a look of disgust towards Xia Wuyin.
Ye Ze really wanted to die.
