Since Mo Junyang came to Tanshan, he had no intention of leaving.
He and Shi Qingxue were expressing their feelings to each other. They were in love with each other. They wanted to be together like conjoined twins, but how could they be willing to leave.
Let alone leaving Tanshan, Mo Junyang was unwilling to leave Shi Qingxue's dormitory even at night.
Although the two have been labeled as 'unmarried couples', after all, they are 'unmarried' and cannot really live together.
So Mo Junyang restrained himself and chose a room close to Qingxue's dormitory.
His bed was against the wall, and on the other side of the wall was Shi Qingxue's bed.
There is only a wall between them.
However, when it was time to go to bed, Mo Junyang had to go back to his room.
He sat at the table and stared at the big bed inside, as if he had a pair of clairvoyant eyes and could see what Qingxue was doing on the other side through the wall.
Qingxue, what is she doing now
Lights out
Did you go to bed
Have you fallen asleep
Is she... missing him too
These trivial thoughts were like entangled snakes, entangled in his entire brain, making him extremely ill and unable to get rid of them.
Tsk!
Mo Junyang stood up with a bang, then opened the door and went out.
He found that the lights in the room next door had been turned off, and his anxious heart was slightly calmed down, but he was still restless and couldn't even think of falling asleep.
Mo Junyang gave up the idea of knocking on the door, and flew directly to the eaves of the opposite house regardless of the light snow falling outside.
He swept out an open space at random and sat down facing Shi Qingxue's dark room.
At this time, the night was getting dark, and the surroundings were so lonely, as if the world was vast, and only Mo Junyang was left.
There is only the wanton and violent wind and snow in my ears.
No matter how strong Mo Junyang's heart is, he can't be in high spirits when faced with such an environment.
He just sat quietly, his eyes always falling on Shi Qingxue's room.
Although I can't see anything, just looking at it seems to make people feel at ease.
Mo Junyang didn't know how long he had been sitting on the roof. He couldn't feel the passage of time, or even the cold, just sitting like this.
My eyes are empty and my mind is far away.
In fact, he didn't think about anything, he just needed a place to calm his restless heart.
This state lasts until a 'squeak' sound is heard.
Shi Qingxue's door was opened.
Shi Qingxue stood at the door of the room. When she raised her head, she met Mo Junyang's eyes.
Both of them were stunned.
Mo Junyang thought something had happened to Shi Qingxue, so he quickly flew to Qingxue from the roof, "What's wrong?"
"What's the matter with you?" Shi Qingxue stared at him and frowned.
Staying up most of the night, blowing cold wind on the roof, what a wonderful mood!
The more Shi Qingxue thought about it, the angrier she became. Regardless of Mo Junyang's great reasons, she was now very angry.
Mo Junyang looked away with a rare guilty conscience, lowered his head and said nothing.
Shi Qingxue: "..."
In just a moment, she lost her temper by Mo Junyang's almost weak behavior.
"It's cold outside, come in first!" Shi Qingxue sighed, gave up training, and instead pulled people into the house.
No matter how good Mo Junyang's health was and he almost never got sick, he was not abused like this.
After driving for several days in a snowstorm and running to the roof to cool off in the middle of the night, even an iron man can't stand it!
Fortunately, Mo Junyang remembered to put on his thick coat, otherwise Shi Qingxue would really be pissed to death.
Shi Qingxue lit the oil lamp again, stuffed the soup pot for heating into Mo Junyang's arms, and poured him a cup of hot tea.
After staring at Mo Junyang and drinking a cup of hot tea, Shi Qingxue began to interrogate: "What are you doing on the roof when you don't sleep at night?"
"It's nothing, it's just..." Mo Junyang made an excuse casually, but before he could say the excuse, he was stared back by Shi Qingxue's "eager" gaze.
He was silent for a long time, and finally gave up hiding it, "I can't sleep."
Years of expectations came true, even if Shi Qingxue didn't actually marry him, it was enough to make Mo Junyang's heart sway. Mo Junyang used a lot of mental restraint to maintain a superficial calm, and not be like those crazy people who get a sudden fortune from heaven, and go crazy with joy.
God knows he doesn't want to restrain himself at all!
Mo Junyang's mood at this time was no different from that of any stingy miser in the world. He just wanted to hide his treasure.
He took Shi Qingxue into his arms and held her tightly.
The person is his, and the heart is also his. Don't give it to anyone who wants it.
Just... no!
He couldn't scare Shi Qingxue, so he could only restrain, restrain, and restrain again.
Shi Qingxue looked at Mo Junyang - the man was as calm as ever on the surface, and ordinary people would not notice it at all - but she showed a thoughtful expression.
After a moment, she suddenly smiled lowly, "What a coincidence, so do I."
Mo Junyang paused and suddenly raised his head to stare at Shi Qingxue.
Like a ferocious beast, it found the only exquisite and delicious prey in winter. It wanted to pounce forward and swallow the prey in one bite, but it hesitated and made no move.
Swallow it and it’s gone.
His eyes were bright, not even comparable to the light of stars, but there was still an imperceptible hesitation deep in his eyes.
Shi Qingxue saw it, then smiled, took Mo Junyang's hand, and said more frankly, "I miss you too, and I can't sleep because of it."
Mo Junyang suddenly felt dizzy.
Nothing in the world touched Mo Junyang's cold heart more than these words.
It turns out that this is no longer his obsession.
His baby, his Qingxue, also fell in love with him.
Mo Junyang no longer has to worry about whether Shi Qingxue likes him.
He was so excited that he hugged Shi Qingxue and held her tightly in his arms.
It seems as if this moment has lasted forever.
Shi Qingxue also relaxed and leaned obediently in Mo Junyang's arms.
It's a sign of weakness, but it's also surrender.
In two lifetimes, this was probably the first time that Shi Qingxue allowed himself to be in such a weak position.
Even if she liked Mo Junhao in her previous life, she never let go of her pride.
Her pride was born with her, but she was defeated by Mo Junyang's affection.
Mo Junyang naturally felt Shi Qingxue's thoughts. The restlessness that had not been calmed down by the cold wind all night finally subsided.
But the ferocious beast in his heart was just dormant, and Shi Qingxue was an excellent soother for him.
As long as she's by his side.
She was the only one beside him.
"I..." Mo Junyang licked his dry lips and said hoarsely: "Can I sleep here?"
"ah?"
Shi Qingxue frowned subconsciously.
Before he could speak, Mo Junyang took the initiative to explain: "I don't need a bed, as long as I have a place where I can watch you. And I will leave before dawn tomorrow, and I promise not to disturb anyone."
In theory, this solution is seamless.
When Shi Qingxue heard this, she was speechless and speechless.
What's going on with this sense of direct gaze
Qingxue's heart was 'active' a lot, and she had countless things to say, but when it came to Mo Junyang, she couldn't say a word.
Forget it, she actually didn't want to leave Mo Junyang anyway.
As long as no one finds out, it doesn't matter, right
Shi Qingxue thought heartily, then nodded.
Mo Junyang's face suddenly lit up. When Qingxue asked, he automatically moved the bed at the other end of the room to a position opposite to the bed.
In this way, Mo Junyang could look at Shi Qingxue while lying on the couch.
Shi Qingxue blew out the lamp, and the room was dark. They both lay down in their places.
It was quiet, but even if Shi Qingxue closed her eyes, she could feel a pair of bright eyes staring at her.
It's not scary, but normal people wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully if they were stared at like this, right? !
After about a quarter of an hour, Qingxue finally shouted unbearably: "That's enough, close your eyes and go to sleep! Otherwise, go back to that room right away."
Now, the room really became quiet.
Shi Qingxue was completely relieved, her whole body was warmed again, she soon felt sleepy, and soon she fell into a deep sleep.
So she didn't know that after she fell asleep, the person on the bed immediately sat up and gently came to sit beside her bed.
I sat there all night and watched her all night.
——
When Qingxue woke up in the morning the next day, she was still a little dazed looking at the bed that had been rearranged in the distance.
Did what happened last night really happen
Or did she miss Mo Junyang too much and just made a guess on her own
"Liu Niang, couldn't you sleep last night?" Xia Mang's confused question shocked Shi Qingxue's thoughts.
She felt guilty and avoided Xia Mang's gaze, "What, what's wrong?"
Xia Mang pointed to the teacup on the table, "When I went down last night, there was no teacup on the table."
Shi Qingxue followed Xia Mang's gaze and realized that the teacup that Mo Junyang drank from was still left on the table.
Prince Mo's 'thief' skills were second to none, and he restored the bed to perfection, but he forgot that there was still one 'evidence of crime' that he had not collected.
So Xia Mang thought he drank it.
Qingxue couldn't help but feel lucky that she only remembered to pour tea for Mo Junyang last night, otherwise she wouldn't be able to explain it if there were two teacups on the table.
Xia Mang was still nagging: "Why are you still drinking tea in the middle of the night? Aren't you even more unable to sleep?"
Shi Qingxue also listened humbly and did not refute, but just diverted Xia Mang's mind at the right time.
In this way, Shi Qingxue and Mo Junyang's "semi-cohabitation" life in Tanshan's Shijia Temple began.
Basically, except for the first day, both of them had a little bit of self-control. After that, except for occasionally exchanging a restrained kiss, they didn't do anything out of the ordinary.
As for "semi-cohabitation", it is naturally because Mo Junyang quietly enters Shi Qingxue's room every night after everyone has fallen asleep.
Just like the first time, he was satisfied without doing anything and just looking at Shi Qingxue.
Shi Qingxue has never been used to being watched while sleeping - she may never get used to this.
But overall, life in Tanshan is still very pleasant.
It wasn't until Wei Ziye finally stopped raging in the wind and snow in Tanshan that he brought a piece of news that broke the comfort.
Shi Juncai died.
He died a tragic death in the place where he was exiled. It is said that he was murdered.
When Shi Qingxue heard the news, her first reaction was disbelief.
In his previous life, until her tragic death, Shi Juncai lived well and even stole the position of Duke Shi. Oh, although the first thing Mo Junyang did after he ascended the throne was to sacrifice her tomb with the blood of the third family member of the Shi family. Why? Did he die so silently now
Or was he killed
This is even more unreasonable!
Shi Juncai was exiled to Beizhou, and he was basically a useless man, but with Mo Shujun as his escort, in theory he could at least live a good life with no worries about food and clothing, so how could he be killed
Who would dare to do such a thankless thing
Eat too much salt and feel restless
When Wei Ziye heard this, Qingxue was asking Mo Junyang doubtfully, showing an expression that was hesitant to speak.
Mo Junyang did not speak rashly, but asked Wei Ziye first: "What other news did you get, whether it is true or false, tell it all!"
Only then did Wei Ziye speak in embarrassment: "In fact, when the people in Beizhou brought the news of Shi Juncai's death, they also brought some rumors. I don't know whether they are true or not, and my subordinates dare not draw conclusions."
"What?" Shi Qingxue looked at Wei Ziye anxiously.
"They said, they said..." Wei Ziye said in a cruel tone: "They said there was a rumor in Beizhou that Duke Shi was jealous of Shi Juncai, so he sent someone to secretly kill Shi Juncai."
"What!"
Shi Qingxue let out the same exclamation, but this time she jumped up from her chair and her eyes widened in disbelief.
Wei Ziye continued to explain the whole story, "These news were brought here personally by our people in Beizhou. Although there is no proof, the rumors are flying all over the sky and they are very convincing. I am afraid there are not a few people who believe this statement.
It's just that the news has not reached Kyoto yet, so it has little impact. After Mr. Qu heard about this, he said that it was not a trivial matter and he did not dare to take matters into his own hands, so he asked his subordinates to rush over to report the matter. What decision did the two masters make? "
