The moon has climbed the top of the willow.
After sleeping for a long time, Zhou Jinyi gradually woke up rubbing his swollen head.
This time, she slept very deeply.
With the orders of the young lady and the old lady successively, no one would dare to disturb the cousin's rest unwisely.
If there wasn't the bright red lanterns outside shining into the room, Zhou Jinyi might still be able to sleep until tomorrow.
She sat up in a trance, but accidentally caught the earrings on the bed.
Picking up the earring in a daze, Zhou Jinyi realized belatedly that the soft embrace before she fell asleep was not a figment of her dream.
She raised the corner of her mouth, put the earring into the armhole, and continued the original action. However, just as she was getting out of bed, she accidentally found the letter left beside her pillow.
After lighting the oil lamp in the house, Zhou Jinyi finally saw the content of the letter.
This is what Gu Qingyin left for her. It has already explained in detail how to cure the poison on the old lady's body.
The solution is not difficult, but the medicinal materials are more difficult to find.
However, this is not a difficult task for the genius doctors.
After putting away the letter, Zhou Jinyi immediately sent people to search for medicine overnight.
After explaining everything, she walked towards the old lady's room, but before she could enter, she was stopped by the gatekeeper.
"Miss Biao, the old lady has already rested, she has already explained, if you come, I will tell you, don't worry, go back and have a good rest, and it will not be too late to come back tomorrow."
Zhou Jinyi frowned slightly.
Thinking about it this way, after my aunt woke up, she didn't let anyone come over to inform her, probably because she didn't want to disturb her rest.
That's all, it's good to wake up. After confirming that the old lady was fine for the time being, Zhou Jinyi didn't force it, just nodded slightly to the attendant, then turned and left.
The servant girl leading the way with a lantern in front was silent all the way, dutifully leading Zhou Jinyi to her original residence.
But Zhou Jinyi, who had been silent all the way, stopped suddenly before entering the courtyard where he lived.
"Go back first, you don't need to serve here."
After only a moment of surprise, the servant girl regained her composure and retreated under orders.
Zhou Jinyi touched the earrings in the armhole, and after the person walked away, he only hesitated for a while, and changed his way in the dark.
"I disagree!"
He Ziyi's suddenly raised roar passed through the closed door of the study and reached the ears of Ke'er who had been waiting outside the study for a long time.
Seeing that the attendants coming and going around stopped and looked towards the study at the same time, Ke'er quickly found an excuse to disperse the attendants in the courtyard, so as not to let these people hear something they shouldn't hear.
Apart from the two arguing in the study room, there is no one else in the huge courtyard.
He Ziyi clenched his fists, tried hard to calm down his anger, gritted his teeth and stared at Meng Muxin in front of him.
"Mu Xin, I can promise you anything else. Only the matter of He Li, I absolutely will not agree!"
"Why bother."
Seeing He Ziyi's angry face, Meng Muxin twitched the corners of his mouth helplessly, but continued calmly: "Ziyi, you know that I only married you to take advantage of you, so why are you so obsessed with me? Now all things It's over, you have already secured the position of the young sect master, and since he has been willing to delegate power to you recently, then it is just around the corner for you to take the position of sect master. Now that you have fulfilled your wish, then I should not I owe you."
"You and I are husband and wife, so how can we say that we are in debt or not in debt!"
He Ziyi's eyes were red, he took a step forward and hugged Meng Muxin tightly into his arms, and before Meng Muxin could struggle, he said in a hurry: "I don't want to be with you, we fought side by side to get to the present with great difficulty. We just gained a firm foothold in the door, and now we have a child with great difficulty. How can you bear to leave me like this? Let the past pass by, okay? I know you are using me, I also know that there are other people in your heart, but those are my willingness, I am willing to be used by you, I am willing to wait for you to forget him. I don’t blame you, I never blame you! If it is not for me, I can’t fight Father, I can't wait to hold everything you want in front of you! You are my married wife and the mother of our future children. We still have a long way to go together in the future. How can you be so easy? What about giving up? Mu Xin, there is no hurdle you can't get over. If you are in a bad mood these days, I won't hang out in front of you so that you can calm down, okay? I can promise you anything, I just ask you , don’t make peace with me, okay?”
The hands on the shoulders were too hard, which made Meng Mu's heart ache.
She fell silent.
The wind rustled, blowing open the unclosed windows and doors.
At this moment, the couple are immersed in their own chaotic thoughts, so they will not notice the person who left sadly outside.
In the end, Meng Muxin still chose to put his hands on He Ziyi's waist, and pushed him out abruptly.
"I'm sorry, I betrayed you. If you want a child, I can give birth to the child and leave on my own."
Looking at Meng Muxin's almost indifferent expression, He Ziyi already understood Meng Muxin's determination this time.
He shook his body, supported himself by pressing the table next to him, and said in pain, "If you really couldn't give me any chance, why did you promise grandma to marry me?"
Seeing He Ziyi's expression, Meng Muxin was slightly moved.
This man is already the best man in the world who treats her better than his master.
But sometimes, emotional matters cannot be controlled by oneself.
She also thought, so be it, just spend the rest of her life with this man like this.
Even if you can only respect each other as guests, it is still a good thing.
But every time she was determined to forget everything, Zhou Jinyi's painful expression would appear before her eyes.
She can't do it, let alone forget it.
It's not that she doesn't want to work hard to fall in love with this man, to fall in love with this good man who treats her infatuatedly. But sometimes, people are always selfish, and feelings are even more selfish. Her heart has long been hollowed out, no matter how much she feels guilty towards this man, she can't give him the so-called love.
Even if she can't chase the love she wants, she can't live like this anymore.
"I'm sorry, I've tried my best. But I still can't do it. I don't want to let myself suffer any more. I have to stop as soon as possible. It's good for you and me. It seems that in the past few years I have been I will do my best to help you seize power. Let me go, okay?"
"Let you go?"
He Ziyi suddenly raised his head and laughed wildly, but his expression seemed more painful than before.
"It turns out that for you, being around me is like being trapped in a cage. I understand, and I should have understood. You don't love me. After I lose the value of using me, you won't leave What are you doing with me! You only hate me for being too naive, always unable to see the facts clearly, and deeply trapped in your tenderness, unable to extricate myself."
After finishing speaking, he stopped pestering Meng Muxin, tried his best to straighten his back, turned and walked towards the door.
"I promise you, I will let you go. After you give birth to the baby in your womb, if you still insist on leaving, I will not stop you again. During this period, you can rest at home and raise your baby. If If you have something to do, remember to send someone to the side yard to call me. During this period of time, I will try not to hang around in front of you so as not to obstruct your eyes."
Staring blankly at He Ziyi's leaving back, Meng Muxin was only in a daze for a while, and then followed him out of the study.
The moment she stepped out of the door, she saw a bright color at her feet.
Stopping the steps she was about to step on in time, Meng Muxin quickly bent down to pick up the familiar handkerchief.
This is Zhou Jinyi's personal handkerchief, and wrapped in the handkerchief is the earring she lost today.
The earring was already broken, presumably He Ziyi didn't notice it when he went out, and stepped on it.
"Jin'er..."
Meng Muxin muttered in a daze, she quickly shook off the broken earrings, put the handkerchief into her arms, and without hesitation, she ran out of the courtyard.
At this moment, she is no longer as rational as when she confronted He Ziyi just now.
At this moment, there was only one thing left on her mind.
That is, Jin Er has come.
But Jin Er left again.
She came, but left again, why
Meng Muxin didn't dare to think about it, she just hoped that she could catch up with her in time before the man walked away.
It's a pity that she found out too late after all. When she searched Qingyangmen and found out Zhou Jinyi's whereabouts, Zhou Jinyi had already gone out overnight.
At that moment, Meng Muxin only felt that her heart was empty.
Why are you leaving? Are you disappointed? Or, never had such expectations
Tears rolled down the sour eyes without warning.
Meng Muxin didn't continue to forcefully chase, but went back in a daze.
At this moment, Meng Muxin was not the only one who lost his soul.
After nightfall, the taverns in the city are always very lively.
It's late at night, and it's time for the drunks to drink hotly.
Gu Qingyin ran all over the city's large and small pubs, but failed to find the little leader who was probably getting drunk to relax.
"cousin!"
When she left in disappointment again, Gu Qingyin was summoned by the man in the corner.
"come over!"
The man was tilting his head and beckoning to her at the moment, his eyes were blurred, which attracted the attention of many men around him.
Gu Qingyin frowned. Seeing that there was no one following Zhou Jinyi, she reluctantly walked towards her. By the way, she glanced at the malicious people around her with a warning look. .
"Why are you getting drunk here alone?"
Zhou Jinyi continued to pour himself a glass of wine, and instead of answering, asked, "Are you in such a hurry, are you looking for something?"
Gu Qingyin was in a bad mood, and she couldn't show much good looks to this cousin who wasted her time looking for someone.
"What does it have to do with you?"
Zhou Jinyi looked up at her, and said in a low voice, "If you are looking for someone, I can help. There are many genius doctors, so it should be easy to find someone."
Gu Qingyin's eyes lit up slightly, and she swept away the disgusted attitude just now, and said quickly: "In that case, I will trouble you to help me."
"Not urgent."
Zhou Jinyi passed a glass of wine in front of Gu Qingyin, "You have two glasses with me before we talk."
Gu Qingyin: "..."
She wished that Zhou Jinyi could find someone to help her find someone right now, but seeing Zhou Jinyi's unusual appearance at the moment, she had no choice but to take the wine glass and drink it patiently, Fang asked: "What are you doing?" What's the matter, did you get hit by something?"
"Yeah, if you don't feel bad, what are you doing here to get drunk?"
Zhou Jinyi pulled the corners of his mouth far-fetchedly, remembering how he felt when he saw that scene just now, he still couldn't hide his pain.
In terms of emotions, no matter how slow she is, it is not difficult to guess that Meng Muxin would propose a divorce, probably because of her.
But because of this, her heart was even more painful.
It's not what she thinks about destroying other people's feelings.
Even if one of them is the person she has engraved deep into her bones and blood, she is unwilling to be the third person in other people's marriages.
Zhou Jinyi deliberated for a while before asking Gu Qingyin while shaking his wine glass: "If... well, I'm just making an analogy. If Zhong Shujin has someone else in his heart, that person is still your relative. For that person, she If you chose to abandon you, how would you feel in your heart?"
Hearing this example, Gu Qingyin's heart twitched violently.
Yes, this time she was the one who abandoned Zhong Shujin first, even if there was such a reason, it was her own choice after all!
For Zhong Shujin, isn't this tantamount to being abandoned by her
Recalling how Zhongshu felt when he abandoned her that day, Gu Qingyin felt even more distressed.
The heartache of that day was still vivid in her memory, and when she thought that Zhong Shujin might feel the same way, she regretted it even more!
Hey, it's no wonder that person got angry and hid.
Knowing that that person always likes to think wildly and narrow-minded, how could she just leave him and leave like this!
Gu Qingyin didn't know what Zhou Jinyi saw and heard today, but thought she was fighting for Zhong Shujin.
After thinking about it, she clenched her fists and said angrily, "I was wrong..."
Immediately afterwards, she raised her head and looked at Zhou Jinyi firmly.
"It was me who was wrong, how can I blame her."
Zhou Jinyi was stunned.
"I mean, if you get left..."
"If that's the case, then I shouldn't blame her!"
Perhaps the two of them were not thinking of the same thing, the more they talked like this, the greater the misunderstanding.
Seeing Zhou Jinyi's eyes contemplating seriously, Gu Qingyin didn't give her a chance to waste time, so she picked him up and walked out.
"Don't drink anymore. If you feel uncomfortable, help me find someone together. Find something for yourself to do, and you won't have time to think about other things!"
