"That year, Xinxin was only nine years old, and his mother died like this in a pool of blood..." Father Chen said, covering his face with his blood-stained hands, and slowly lowered his head, his shoulders shaking violently. The ground began to shake, and he cried bitterly, "Master Mo, I killed the man, and you saw it with your own eyes. After meeting the official, please don't involve Xinxin. This matter has nothing to do with him..."
Mo Zhifei turned back and glanced at Father Chen. After a while, he slowly nodded and said, "I know."
"I... will be arrested by then. Please take good care of Luan Xin, Master. He... He has already experienced it once when he was a child. I am afraid that he will really go crazy this time. Please keep an eye on him during this time. …”
Mo Zhifei's eyes narrowed complicatedly, and the suppressed pain in his eyes flashed away. In the end, he didn't say anything and just nodded.
At this moment, he is more worried about Ruan Xin's situation than anyone else, but he doesn't want to force Ruan Xin. He knows that Ruan Xin doesn't want to see anyone now, so he can only guard him.
Chen's father surrendered. He was murdered, and the witnesses and physical evidence were conclusive.
Mo Zhifei had someone help handle the matter and tried his best to reduce Chen's father's sentence, but after all, Chen's father had killed someone and would inevitably go to jail.
But this is not what Mo Zhifei is most worried about. What he is most worried about now is that if Ruan Xin continues to live in the bloody yard in the tail alley, he will have nightmares again and again.
Therefore, Mo Zhifei asked people to buy a courtyard in the city in the past few days. He knew that what Ran Xin needed most was peace and quiet, so he specially chose a courtyard with a secluded environment.
When he told Ruan Xin that he was going to move out, Ruan Xin was eating silently with her head down. She didn't know whether she agreed with what he said or not, and she didn't react at all to his suggestions.
Mo Zhifei went into the house to help him pack his luggage. After packing, he told Ruan Xin that he would move out now. Ruan Xin looked at him, as if she wanted to find some flaws in his eyes, but Mo Zhifei She looked at him frankly, waiting for Ruan Xin to give him a reaction.
After a while, Ruan Xin finally blinked her eyelashes gently and said in a cold and indifferent voice, "Master?"
He highlighted each word clearly, and with such a cold tone, he seemed to be confirming whether the person in front of him was the right person.
However, Mo Zhifei looked at him seriously, his eyes still as flamboyant as ever. He raised his finger and pinched the tip of his nose, "Nonsense, who is this young master?"
Ruan Xin pinched the tip of her nose, blinked her eyes again, and her eyes seemed to slowly soften a little.
He looked at Mo Zhifei without saying anything, but it was much better than before. Mo Zhifei also felt a little relieved in his heart, and then left the tail alley with Ruan Xin and got into the carriage.
Unfortunately, not long after they got on the carriage, it started to rain heavily outside.
This spring rain was slightly cool, with an uncomfortable dampness, covering the entire North City.
After arriving at the new courtyard, Mo Zhifei took off his robe, propped it on Ruan Xin, asked Ruan Xin to get off the carriage with him, and then asked the people below to bring in the luggage.
After entering the yard, Mo Zhifei took off his half-wet robe. Fortunately, Ruan Xin was not wet by the rain. He pulled Ruan Xin into the house and told Ruan Xin that he would live here from now on. .
At that time, Ruixin sat down, looked around, and finally said slowly: "Master, do you want to keep me here?"
Mo Zhifei was startled for a moment and said: "What do you mean by raising you here? When you recover, you have to go back to the hospital. Who said I need you to raise you!"
However, Ruan Xin caught the key words of his sentence, narrowed her eyes and said, "Does the young master also think that I am sick?"
As soon as Mo Zhifei heard this, he knew that Ruan Xin had misunderstood. He couldn't help but sit down, held Ruan Xin's hand and said, "Don't you know you've been suffering from the cold these past two days? What are you thinking about?" .”
Hearing this, Ruan Xin looked at him, lowered her head without saying a word, took her pulse seriously, then frowned and said, "It's just a little cold."
Mo Zhifei made a "tsk" sound and said, "If you don't take it seriously, a small fenghan will turn into a big problem. Fortunately, you are still an imperial doctor."
However, Ruan Xin looked at him and suddenly changed the subject and asked: "Master, does Mrs. Mo know that you bought a courtyard for me to live in?"
"What's the point... I'll just tell my parents later. Besides, I bought it for you with my own money." Mo Zhifei knew that Luan Xin was sensitive at the moment, and he also knew what was going on in his heart. What are you thinking about, so you can't show the slightest expression that you don't want to see.
Ruan Xin still said calmly: "Then they know... did my father kill someone?"
"Xinxin." Mo Zhifei frowned, looked at Ruan Xin seriously and said, "I told you, this matter has nothing to do with you, so don't think about it anymore."
Ruan Xin still stared at him, still unwilling to let him go: "Master, don't you dare to let them know?"
"Xinxin..."
"Mrs. Mo has such a good tutor. If she knew that the young master was staying with the son of a murderer, she would be angry." Ruan Xin added.
"That person deserves to die. It has nothing to do with you. My parents are also people who can distinguish right from wrong. They are not what you think."
"It's relevant." Ruan Xin looked at Mo Zhifei, and after a while she said softly, "Chen Xi died too quickly, otherwise, he would definitely tell you other disgusting things..." Ruan Xin As he spoke, he paused slightly and then slowly added, "About me."
Mo Zhifei stood up, frowned and said, "Xinxin, you go back to the house and rest first."
Ruan Xin's face didn't change: "Young Master, don't you dare to listen?" Ruan Xin raised his head again and looked at him, and saw that Mo Zhifei's expression was obviously unhappy, but he still said quietly, "Actually, I The reason why I want to kill Chen Xi is not because I am angry, young master, I just want to block his mouth and prevent him from telling you those disgusting things."
"It's heart-wrenching!" Mo Zhifei frowned and said calmly, "If you dare to say it, I'm naturally willing to listen, but I won't listen to you now."
"Isn't it nice to say it now?"
Mo Zhifei said coldly: "I don't think there is anything wrong with it. You are not calm at all now, Lu Xin. If you just want to drive me away, then let me tell you, no matter what you want to say to me, I can bear it." Stay, I won’t leave you at this time!”
Ruan Xin probably didn't expect that Mo Zhifei would suddenly say such words to him. He was silent for a moment, moved his thin lips slightly, and suddenly lowered his eyes and asked softly: "Master... do you like me?" Me?"
