Time seemed to stand still.
The bright sunlight shines through the exquisitely carved window spirits in the corridor and falls on the closed window.
Soft light shines through the curtains, falls into the house, and illuminates the entire room.
The red candle on the candlestick in the corner is still burning.
The rice paper on the eucalyptus table, the ink that had just been used had already dried.
The room was silent.
On the soft snow-white carpet, the frail Second Miss Qin, dressed in a snow-soft gauze, lay softly on Luo Qingzhou's body.
Her pink lips were like petals, still pressed against his.
The two of them lay there, one on top and one on the bottom, with their lips touching, eyes open, looking at each other, quiet and motionless.
The whole world seemed to be quiet.
All they could hear was the sound of each other's heartbeats and the sound of each other's breathing becoming increasingly heavier.
Luo Qingzhou lay there, somewhat dazed...
I don’t know how much time passed.
It seems very long, yet very short.
The girl's soft little mouth finally and gently left his mouth, but her soft body refused to get up, still lying weakly on his chest, her cheeks flushed, her eyelashes trembling, and her watery eyes looking at him.
After a while.
She murmured, "Brother-in-law... you were bullied by Wei Mo again."
There seemed to be a little pride in his tone.
Luo Qingzhou looked at her pretty and shy little face and her tender eyes, and was dazed for a while before saying, "Oh."
The girl was startled for a moment, then she pursed her lips and smiled softly, her eyes curved and charming.
Laughed for a while.
Her pretty little face came close to him again, her pink lips almost touching his again, her watery eyes looked into his, a hint of pride and playfulness appeared in her sparkling eyes: "Brother-in-law, have you accepted your fate?"
Feeling the girl's warm breath and soft body, looking at her cute appearance, Luo Qingzhou couldn't help it any longer. He suddenly raised his head and kissed her little mouth, then bit it, hugged her, turned over, and pressed her down.
"Brother-in-law..."
The girl's heartbeat suddenly became faster, her cheeks became redder, and her eyes became blurred.
But at this time, her breathing began to become difficult, her originally red cheeks began to gradually turn white, and her body began to tremble slightly.
Luo Qingzhou suddenly woke up, and seeing her having difficulty breathing and her face turning from red to white, the desire in his body instantly subsided. He hurriedly let go of her and picked her up from the ground.
"Second Miss..."
His face changed slightly, and he hurriedly picked her up, walked to the inner room, put her on the bed, and then went to pour tea, went over to help her up, and handed it to her lips and said, "Drink some water."
Drink some water to divert your attention and dispel the emotions in your heart.
This girl's physique is terribly weak.
It was just a kiss and I could hardly breathe. What would happen if it went a step further
Wouldn't she die instantly
She clearly knows that she is weak and can't do it, but she still wants to tease him. It's really a headache!
Qin Weimo's face turned pale, and he gasped for a long time before slowly calming down.
She lowered her head and drank a few sips of water, then closed her eyes and leaned weakly in his arms.
Another moment passed.
She just opened her eyes, lowered her long eyelashes, bit her pink lips, and apologized in a low voice: "Brother-in-law, I'm sorry... Wei Mo is useless..."
Luo Qingzhou put down the water cup, gently held her delicate body in his arms, gently stroked her smooth hair and said: "It's useless at all, the second young lady is the most useful."
The girl pressed her pale face against his chest, tears welling in her eyes as she said, "But, Wei Mo can't... can't serve my brother-in-law..."
Luo Qingzhou's heart trembled, and he reached out to hold her soft little hand, and said softly: "What are you talking about? What's the point of serving me? I don't need you to serve me. Second Miss, don't think too much. Don't worry, your illness will definitely heal, and you will be fine."
"Brother-in-law..."
"Okay, stop talking and have a good rest."
"Brother-in-law, don't go..."
"If you don't leave, I'll sit here and hold you. Go to sleep and stop thinking about it. Your health is important."
The girl clung to his arms and hugged him tightly.
I don’t know how much time passed.
She finally slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Listening to the sleeping breathing sound coming from his arms, Luo Qingzhou lowered his head, stared at the delicate little face with traces of tears for a while, frowned, and sighed slightly.
The sun outside the window is gradually setting.
The room was quiet.
There was no sound outside the house either.
Zhu'er, who went to get something, seemed to never come back and there was no sound at all.
Before I knew it, the sun was setting and it was already dusk.
Qiu Er knocked on the door gently and called out in a low voice: "Uncle..."
The two maids had been standing at the door waiting for a long time. It was only at this time that Fang could not help but knock on the door.
Luo Qingzhou said: "Come in."
The girl in his arms was still sleeping soundly with a sweet smile on her lips.
The door was gently pushed open.
Qiu'er first poked her head in and looked towards the eucalyptus platform. Seeing that there was no one there, she saw the fox fur coat taken off by her young lady on the ground. Her face changed slightly and she turned her head to look at the soft couch.
There was still no one on the couch.
Only then did she look towards the inner room.
The son-in-law was sitting beside the bed, and the young lady was leaning in his arms, her hair disheveled, motionless, as if she had fallen asleep.
She was a little hesitant, not knowing whether she should go in.
Luo Qingzhou waved his hand, signaling her to come over.
Qiu Er then entered the room, closed the door, silently lifted the beaded curtain, entered the inner room, and whispered, "Sir, is the young lady asleep?"
"I have slept for more than an hour."
Luo Qingzhou gently moved the girl in his arms and put her on the bed. He then covered her with a blanket and whispered, "Miss Qiu'er, take good care of her. I have to go back."
Qiu'er looked at him, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
Luo Qingzhou seemed to want to explain, but felt it was unnecessary, and he had nothing to explain.
We kissed, slept, and touched each other, and we almost reached the last step.
What else is there to explain
He lifted the beaded curtain and walked out, went to the eucalyptus table near the window, picked up the snow-white fox fur from the ground, put it on the chair next to him, took another look at the beautiful small words on the rice paper, then turned and left the house.
Zhu Er was standing in the corridor outside the door, holding a stack of rice paper in her hands. When she saw him coming out, she handed the things to him and said, "Son-in-law, these things are very important. The master said that no one except the second young lady and son-in-law can see them. Son-in-law must keep them carefully."
Luo Qingzhou took it in his hand and asked doubtfully: "Did the master mention me too?"
Zhu Er nodded and said, "Yes, I mentioned it."
Luo Qingzhou didn't say anything more. He thanked him and walked down the stairs.
When they reached the courtyard, Zhu'er suddenly asked, "Son-in-law, did you take advantage of my young lady in the room just now?"
Luo Qingzhou paused, thought for a moment, turned around and said, "No."
Zhu'er looked unconvinced.
He added: "But your young lady took advantage of me."
After saying that, he picked up his things and left quickly.
Zhu Er was stunned for a moment, looking at his back, and pouted: "Humph, you are so ungrateful after getting the advantage. I would wake up laughing even in my dreams if my young lady took advantage of me!"
On the bed in the room.
Miss Qin Er had a smile on her face, as if she was having a sweet dream, and she even mumbled in her sleep: "Brother-in-law..."
Luo Qingzhou was holding the things and was distracted all the way.
When passing by Lingchan Moon Palace, Bailing, wearing a pink dress, stood at the door and looked at him and said, "Sir, will you come to pay your respects to my young lady tonight?"
Luo Qingzhou came back to his senses, looked at her and said, "Did the young lady ask about me?"
Bai Ling looked dimly: "No."
Luo Qingzhou glanced at her, immediately understood, and said, "Okay, then I'll come over tonight."
Bai Ling's mouth twitched, revealing a hint of smile, and said crisply: "Son-in-law, then remember to come early tonight."
Luo Qingzhou hesitated for a moment, then walked over to take a look at the courtyard and whispered, "Bai Ling, is Miss Xia Chan here?"
Bailing narrowed her eyes and said, "Chanchan is sleeping in the room. What's wrong? Does Master miss her? Do you want to go to the room and sleep with her?"
Luo Qingzhou frowned and said seriously, "Don't joke. Bailing, I want to ask, has Xia Chan been sleeping in the house during the day recently?"
Bailing nodded and said, "Yes, Chanchan is afraid of the dark. She doesn't dare to sleep alone at night, so she can only sleep during the day."
Luo Qingzhou looked at her and asked, "Why don't you sleep with her at night?"
Bailing shook her head and said, "No, Chanchan doesn't want me. She always has nightmares at night, and sometimes she even draws a sword. It's very scary. I don't dare to sleep with her."
Luo Qingzhou felt a little sad when he heard this: "Is it because of something that happened when we were kids?"
Bai Ling sighed and said, "It should be. For so many years, Chanchan has never been able to walk out of those shadows."
Luo Qingzhou thought about the lonely and silent girl wandering around the streets in the dark last night, and said softly: "Bai Ling, you can accompany her more at night in the future. If she doesn't sleep, she should walk around, right? It's lonely to be alone, it would be better if you accompany her."
Bai Ling said helplessly, "Son-in-law, it's not that I don't want to accompany Chanchan. I have to stay with the young lady, and Chanchan doesn't want me to follow her."
Luo Qingzhou frowned, was silent for a moment, and said: "Bai Ling, I couldn't sleep last night, so I walked around for a while and saw her outside the mansion. She was standing alone on the street outside in a daze, looking... quite pitiful."
Bai Ling heard this, and a look of doubt gradually appeared on her face. Then, she gradually became solemn and whispered: "Uncle, did you say anything to Chanchan?"
Luo Qingzhou was slightly startled: "What do you mean?"
Bailing frowned tightly and said solemnly, "Even if Chanchan can't sleep, she usually won't go out alone. She has a poor sense of direction and can't recognize the road. She is also very resistant and afraid of the unfamiliar environment and people outside. She must have had a reason to go out last night. Are you sure you didn't say anything to her?"
Luo Qingzhou pondered for a moment, thinking carefully about what he had said to her in the past few days.
After a moment.
His heart suddenly trembled, and he seemed to remember something vaguely.
