Zichen returned to his residence, but he didn't have anything to do as he and Tuanzi said before.
On the contrary, with a leisurely pace and a lazy posture, he walked to the table, sat down casually, and poured himself a cup of tea.
The fingertips gently rubbed the teacup.
The tea was cold, but for some reason, the palms of his hands felt a little warm.
He was half leaning in the chair, his eyes were slightly lowered, and his eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about something.
Countless images seemed to flash before his eyes.
That face became clearer and clearer, almost engraved in my heart.
Three months.
He waited very hard.
In fact, at the beginning, when he received the news from Miao Zhen, he planned to resolve the matter as soon as possible and went to Phoenix Mountain to find someone.
But unexpectedly, Miao Zhen actually had other thoughts.
When he learned that Miao Zhen wanted to bring him and Miao Xuanxuan together, he left no face for Miao Zhen and stood up to leave without saying a word.
Why would he waste his time on such an irrelevant person
If he had the time, he would rather go to the Phoenix Mountain to meet the people he wanted to see.
But what Miao Zhen said later made him stop.
At that time, faced with his extremely tough refusal, Miao Zhen was surprised and strange.
he asks:
"Zi Chen, if you resist like this, do you think you have a girl you like?"
Zichen stopped and denied it directly as if he heard some joke.
"Senior Miao Zhen, why do you think so?"
He has always been cold-hearted and has no patience to even say a few words to others. Where can he find a girl he likes
But for some reason, when he refuted Miao Zhen, he felt a subtle guilt in his heart that even he could not explain.
Miao Zhen laughed at that time.
He shook his head and said with a smile:
"If not, why are you nervous? Zichen, you subconsciously keep a distance from all women and refuse to even give it a try. Aren't you afraid that someone will be angry?"
He wants to say that this is how he is.
But at the moment he was about to speak, a blurry face suddenly flashed through his mind.
The thought that suddenly came to his mind shocked him on the spot.
Actually, this is not the first time I think of that face.
But at that time, in that situation, inexplicably, he re-examined Miao Zhen's words.
So he finally became aware of the dangerous thoughts hidden in the deepest part of his heart that could not be explained to others.
It was like a piece of window paper that was finally pierced through without mercy.
If before, he could still pretend to be peaceful and tell himself that it was just out of the feelings of life and death for many years.
After Miao Zhen asked that question, he finally had no choice but to continue to deceive like this.
Even he himself didn't know exactly when all this changed.
But by the time he realized it, it was already too late.
Then, he agreed to Miao Zhen's request, took Miao Xuanxuan back to Huanshen Palace, and tried his best to help her recuperate.
Recalling the lonely look in Tuanzi's eyes when he asked that question just now, his heart seemed to be clenched tightly by something.
In fact, there was no other reason to bring Miao Xuanxuan back.
Just to thank Miao Zhen, she woke him up with just a few words.
He didn't expect Tuanzi to misunderstand.
He originally wanted to explain, but her reaction suddenly made him realize a certain possibility.
A possibility that made his heart burn as soon as he thought about it.
In fact, he deliberately did not go to see Tuanzi in the past three months because he had his own selfish motives.
He wanted to take a good look at himself and see Tuanzi's attitude.
They've been together for too long.
And these things that happened before and after made Zichen realize very clearly that if this state remains, then it is very likely that it will always be like this between them.
Everything needs to change.
Only in this way can we break and stand again.
Three months was really hard.
Even though he had been paying close attention to the situation there, it was still very difficult.
Especially knowing that those boys were surrounding her all day long.
Several times in the middle, he almost planned to pass, but in the end he endured it.
Fortunately—
It seems that it is worth enduring.
Thinking of the little girl's aggrieved look at the end, he sighed softly.
But hurry up.
Tuanzi didn't sleep well all night.
She had a nightmare.
In the dream, Zichen prepared a lot of delicious food. She ran over excitedly, but was stopped by Zichen.
Then, she saw Miao Xuanxuan sitting next to her.
Zichen said:
"These are prepared for Xuanxuan, not for you."
Miao Xuanxuan smiled so tenderly next to her.
She was very angry and ran away hungry.
Then she returned to her room for no apparent reason.
Probably because she had been running for too long, her scorpion tail had spread out and her soft black hair had become messy.
She was about to tidy up when she saw Zi Chen appearing in front of the dressing mirror again.
And Miao Xuanxuan was sitting in front of him.
He was very close, holding Miao Xuanxuan's hair in his hand.
With a slight movement of his fingertips, he took away the two red rope golden bells in her hand.
"Xuanxuan looks better with this one. You can choose something else."
Tuanzi's nose felt sour, but for some reason, he didn't go up to grab it.
She seemed not to want to look, so she turned around and ran away.
I don’t know how long I ran, and the surrounding scenery was blurry.
Something tripped her feet, and her body fell forward uncontrollably.
At the end of the day, she saw Zichen suddenly appear in front of her.
Not even an inch away.
As long as he stretches out his hand, he can save her.
"Zi Chen!"
She called him hastily.
But Zichen just stood there and didn't move.
He even took half a step back, away from her.
Tuanzi fell hard to the ground.
It stands to reason that her physical strength is very strong, and she won't feel anything if she knocks on it, but it may be because in the dream, she actually felt excruciating pain.
She raised her head and couldn't help but accuse:
"Zi Chen! Why don't you help me!"
Zichen looked at her condescendingly, his voice was so familiar, but the words he said were so unfamiliar.
He said:
"I'm already married, so naturally I have to avoid suspicion."
"I am not yours."
Tuanzi woke up suddenly and sat up on the bed, his face was cold.
She touched her face and found that she had a nightmare and cried
She sat there blankly, her heart seemed to be crumpled into a ball.
strangeness.
Why do you have such a dream
Why was she so sad in the dream
If Zichen really marries a wife and has children, it will almost be like that, right
Tuk Tuk.
There was a sudden knock on the door.
Tuanzi responded in a low voice.
Yifu walked in:
"Tuanzi, today we—what happened to you?"
She was originally smiling, but when she looked up, she saw Tuanzi's eyes were red, his face was stained with tears, his clothes and hair were messy, and he looked really pitiful.
Hearing the sound, Tuanzi suddenly raised his head and asked confusedly:
"Why not mine?"
