After flirting with Elt, Ye Chen felt at ease.
She especially liked the feeling of Aert's anger, which made Ye Chen feel very exciting. Thirty-eight expressed its incomprehension to this, and it said solemnly: "Host, you are playing with fire."
Alt is not a very good-natured person.
However, Ye Chen didn't think it was very important. She sang and hummed while soaking in the bath, comforting Sanba, "It's okay, it's just that he can't do anything."
"Who gave you the courage to think that a world-destroying boss like Ert can't do anything? Liang Jingru?"
"Don't worry about it." Ye Chen came out of the bathtub and said in a bathrobe, "I'm measured."
She is a person who is particularly sensitive to emotional perception. For some reason, she always feels that Aert has a kind of tolerance towards her. There may be many ways and reactions to Elt to others, but to treat her, Elt probably can't do anything except to fry her hair.
She doesn't know where this blind sense of trust comes from, but she has never been a person who likes to get to the bottom of things. She has always felt that fate exists.
When do you meet someone, fall in love with someone, know the truth, work hard, struggle, struggle, end, everything has been arranged. You can't be in a hurry until it's time for you to know.
So she knew that there were many strange things, but she was unwilling to explore it. One day, she would know the truth.
Ye Chen slept well, but Aert didn't sleep very well. He had a very contradictory emotion towards Ye Chen. On the one hand, he hated this person, and on the other hand, he hated this person deep down in his heart. She has infinite indulgence.
For example, when she kissed him, he felt very angry, but it happened again and again in his dreams.
In the moonlight, the girl approached him and kissed his cheek.
So when he woke up, Elt fell into a deep self-blame.
Ye Chen is poisonous, he must stay away.
In order to implement this idea, he had the food delivered to Ye Chen and Kyle's room, and decided not to eat with them. Ye Chen was stunned when the servant knocked on the door to deliver breakfast: "Why do I have to eat in the room?"
The servant was a little embarrassed, and said bravely: "The young master said... He is the master, and it is impossible for him to let the restaurant feed you."
To put it simply, if I don't want to be at the same table with you, you should go further.
Ye Chen raised his eyebrows, but he really did not expect that Aert, who was completely undisguised, would have such a big temper
After eating, Ye Chen learned that Aert was out. After thinking about it, she followed.
Ert arrived at the Colosseum yesterday and issued an inspection report. The Colosseum was actually built in the suburbs outside the imperial capital. It would take most of the day to ride the carriage. In the animal farm, there are many people watching from afar.
Even though Dika had already blocked the scene, as the most popular magician in the imperial capital, there were still many people gathering around the scene where Aert performed his magic, watching Aert from a distance.
Ye Chen is one of them.
She originally only came to see Elt, but she didn't know why. In the crowd, she was inexplicably rendered by a nympho feeling of "this person is very handsome". Elt, who is chanting a spell, is particularly beautiful.
What Elt does is not only to perceive the existence of magical elements, but he must use fixed spells to show the existence traces of the elements he perceives to everyone. This is a very mentally draining thing. Elt just fought Ye Chen last night. His mental power is still in a very unstable state. Fortunately, his talent is very good. At this time, he has recovered a lot. Magical elements Surrounded by him, he closed his eyes and chanted poetry-like incantations in the light spots, his golden hair fluttered in the wind, and everyone around him exclaimed in amazement.
"Master Elt is so handsome!"
An aunt sighed: "Having such a perfect son, Mrs. Rui actually hates him. I really don't understand this mother!"
"Mrs. Rui?" Another girl asked the aunt curiously: "Why does she hate her own son?"
"Because when Young Master Elter was born," the aunt lowered her voice and whispered, "She had a difficult childbirth, and then someone predicted that Young Master Elter would bring disaster to the family, so Mrs. Rui always hated El. Young Master Te, prefers his youngest son, and hopes that the youngest son can inherit the position of Duke Lancer, but according to the status of Young Master Erte in the family, tsk tsk," the aunt said, "As long as Master Erte lives, this is impossible."
"So..." Someone in the crowd asked, "Is this why Master Elt lives alone?"
"Yes… "
The crowd talked about Aert's life experience and some private news. Ye Chen listened for a while and saw that Aert had announced that Kyle's opponent had cheated and said goodbye to everyone, so she had nothing else to do. , followed by farewell.
Aert went back in the carriage, and Ye Chen followed behind. Because the carriage was faster, Aert quickly disappeared from Ye Chen's field of vision. Ye Chen thought they were going to meet in Aert's house. But soon, Ye Chen met Aert and his group surrounded by people on a small road in the suburbs.
"I don't understand," she heard Elt's voice in the crowd, trembling: "As a mother, how can she do this?!"
"I'm sorry." The man who besieged Ert sighed, "This is Madam's order."
After that, the crowd rushed towards Elt's carriage. Elt was still sitting in the carriage, clenching his fists.
He has just used up all his mental power and is still in a very weak state. Now that he does not have his own knight, he can only rely on ordinary guards to protect him. As the eldest son of the Lancer family, he and the Lancer family already have power. Compared with the wife of many years, she is still the weaker party.
In the last life, he did not show his talent so early in this life, and his mother tolerated him. He was not so desperate as he is now, even in the imperial capital, under the eyes of his father, he used this much power.
Isn't she afraid? Not afraid of being known, did she kill her own son with her own hands? Aren't he afraid that his younger brother would be accused of murdering his brother, or that his father would eventually divorce her out of anger
No, she's not afraid.
Aert closed his eyes and trembled slightly. For the first time, he realized so clearly that his mother was actually a great mother. It was not that she had no maternal love, but the object was not him.
He never understood how a mother could be so biased
Aert listened to the sound of fighting outside, not without fear.
He still has so many things to do and seek revenge for Kyle, but there is a great possibility that he will be buried here today.
He is not reconciled... how can he be reconciled...
But what can he do
He tried to mobilize his mental power again and again, and tried to concentrate his will, but he couldn't perceive those magic elements, and a magician in a state of absolute exhaustion was almost no different from an ordinary person.
Elt gritted his teeth, and a huge despair enveloped him. At this moment, someone suddenly jumped into the carriage, opened the curtain with a sword, and reached out to him.
"Come with me."
The girl was wearing a black robe, her plain white hand stretched out in front of him. Without any hesitation, as soon as he grabbed her hand, he followed her out of the carriage.
Ye Chen cut off the connection between the rope and the carriage with a single sword. He jumped onto the horse while grabbing Aert. He put Aert's hand around her waist and said earnestly, "Hold me tight!"
Elt hugged her tightly, feeling the wind whistling past her ears, and the girl's sword kept drawing blood from the person beside her who wanted to rush over. Her expression was calm and steady, giving him an instant infinite courage.
won't die here.
With her, he wouldn't die here.
Even though her body is so slender, even if she is just a beautiful and petite young lady, the sword she possesses contains a powerful force that protects them.
There was a thought lingering in his mind, and he couldn't get rid of it. He tried to get rid of that thought, but found it extremely difficult.
Ye Chen managed to break out of the siege. Seeing that the people chasing them were getting closer, he simply rushed into the woods, and then ran wildly into the woods.
The woods that go up the mountain are not suitable for horses to run. Ye Chen jumped off the horse with Aert after a short distance, and rushed into the depths of the forest. Aert's physical strength was not good, so Ye Chen and his fingers intertwined, almost like a Dragging him forward, Aert didn't dare to say more, he gritted his teeth and followed Ye Chen desperately. The two were chased to the edge of a waterfall, and Ye Chen jumped down with Aert without hesitation. !
The water slapped Aert's face, and the two smashed into the pool. Aert was knocked out by the huge water pressure. He poured water into his stomach. Ye Chen quickly dragged him out, dragging him out. When they got to shore, they found that the man had passed out. She hurriedly pressed the water on his stomach, then carried it to his shoulder and slapped it. Aert spat out a mouthful of water and coughed in a hurry. Ye Chen carried him, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile, "I finally woke up. If you don't wake up, I will kiss you."
"Let me... cough... let me down..." Elt said with difficulty, Ye Chen put him down, Elt was still a little shaken, Ye Chen assisted him, looked at the sky, it was already too late, The moonlight filled the river bank, and the waterfall looked beautiful in the moonlight with a silvery white brilliance.
Ye Chen was soaked all over. The people of this continent developed very early. Although Ye Chen was only thirteen years old, he had already experienced ups and downs. She put the sword back in her waist and walked directly into the forest. The moonlight fell on her, and the waterfall, the long river, and the beautiful girl were intertwined into a strange beauty. Even after the chase just now, his heart was peaceful, as if it was the moonlight, the river, and the forest.
He followed behind her, and he couldn't help but want to step on the road she had walked, and just follow her silently.
He didn't want to have such emotions, he should hate this person. Always challenge his limits, without measure, and completely fooling women in his world.
But for some reason, at this moment, he suddenly wanted to put aside his prejudice against Kyle, his inner pride, and look at her without any distractions.
Actually, he didn't hate her that much. It even brought so much unspeakable love and affection.
from the first encounter. He realized that this person was different to him. He couldn't tell what it felt like, but there was such a person that as soon as you saw it, you felt that you had met before.
It's just that she is Kyle's fiancee. It's just that her temperament is really too annoying.
But if she was Kyle's fiancee, and she liked to make fun of herself, he didn't... hate her too much.
Especially at the moment when she rolled up the car curtain and extended her hand to him, he was already desperate, had given up, already felt that his life was over, it was this person who suddenly appeared and gave him a new life.
So he can no longer deceive himself, nor can he hide his feelings.
When she quietly cleared the road for him with her back to him, he couldn't help but recall the feeling of reaching out and holding her hand when the two of them were shopping for the first time after she rescued him for the first time.
At that time, he thought that he was playing on the scene to attract her attention, but in retrospect, he felt that at that time, his heartbeat was real, his shyness was real, his panic was real, and his joy was real. Why do you think the relationship is fake
Elt felt that his mind was in a mess for a while, so he quietly followed Ye Chen without saying a word.
Ye Chen didn't speak the whole time. He cut through the weeds with his sword and cleared a path. The two walked for a long time and found a cave. This temporary shelter was exchanged by Ye Chenhua points and 38. There were some necessary supplies in it. Ye Chen pretended to find it by accident and walked in directly with it. He walked in, explained to him that this might be Orion's usual residence, lit a torch, and asked Aert to take off his coat, wring it dry, and bake it on the fire.
Aert knew that if he didn't take it off, he would easily get sick. He didn't pay too much attention to it, so he took off running outside, leaving only a pair of bottoms, naked and on fire.
Ye Chen knew that a noble young master like him had never worked, so he stretched out his hand and said, "Let me twist it for you."
"No." Elt refused directly, bowing his head and twisting his clothes. He twisted it awkwardly and laboriously. Ye Chen couldn't help laughing. He sat beside him, raised his hand to grab the clothes, and showed him, "You have to use force in the opposite direction, that's all," she grabbed his hand. , teach him to twist his clothes: "Twist in different directions."
Alt didn't speak, he looked at her quietly.
The girl under the firelight is very gentle, and her voice is neither high nor low, which makes people feel at peace, like a light on a long road, emitting a warm light in the night.
He couldn't help but stare blankly. He didn't hear what Ye Chen said. He just watched her lips open and close, and he suddenly had an inexplicable urge to kiss her.
Yet he did nothing.
In his last life, he only lived to be nineteen years old, and all his life experiences were not enough to support the shyness of being a young man in his heart.
Seeing that he didn't move, Ye Chen turned his head and saw the serious eyes of the young man. She couldn't help laughing: "If you look at me like this, I'll think you want to kiss me."
Hearing this, Alt immediately sneered and turned his head away.
Ye Chen shrugged helplessly, and she knew that this person had a terrible temper.
The two of them wring out their clothes together and bake them on the fire.
Ye Chen was a girl, and it was impossible for her to take off her clothes, so she leaned against the fire to bake.
Elt has always been a sought-after character, so he has developed a personality that is not very talkative. Usually, others take the initiative to talk to him, and he only needs to answer. Before he got along with Ye Chen, he was deliberately gentle. At this moment, he didn't want to be so deliberate, he just wanted to face her with the most real Aert, and then talk to her.
But he didn't know how to chat with people, so he thought about it and said, "What happened to your magic element that day? You can use magic, and you still want to be a swordsman?"
After saying that, Elt regretted it.
At the beginning of such a scholar, there is no flirting at all.
However, Ye Chen seemed very interested in this topic, and explained spiritual power to him seriously. Elt was also interested in listening, so he listened carefully.
After listening for a while, he found that some abnormal flushes appeared on Ye Chen's face, and his speech began to slow down, which seemed a little difficult. Alt frowned, stood up, walked in front of her, raised his hand and touched her forehead, only to realize that she had a high fever.
"You have a high fever."
He spoke firmly, Ye Chen nodded, but he didn't feel anything: "It's fine, it'll be fine in a while."
At this time, her clothes were still a little damp, and Elt's robes were already dry. He immediately said: "You change my clothes to wear."
"Huh?" Ye Chen was a little surprised: "You don't dislike me?"
Generally speaking, this kind of Virgo man is very quirky. Aert was a little impatient: "If you want to wear it, why do you talk so much?"
Ye Chen quickly raised his hand and made a gesture of surrender.
"Okay," Ye Chen said immediately, "I see, I'll change it."
After saying that, Ye Chen stood up, Elt gave her the clothes, turned his back to her and said, "You change it, I won't look at it."
Ye Chen responded, and then started changing clothes by herself. Changing clothes consumed most of Ye Chen's physical strength. After she changed, she was obviously not in good spirits. Aert didn't say anything, so he silently spread a simple plan with a haystack. He took the thin quilt from the cave and let Ye Chen go in.
Ye Chen knew that he was not in a good state, so he slept in without rejecting it. Aert sat next to her, facing the fire, and said directly, "Go to sleep."
Ye Chen looked at his back. He was obviously a thirteen-year-old boy, but he was like a man, which made her feel particularly secure.
She felt that she was probably confused. Looking at the moonlight outside, she said gently, "Let's sleep together."
Elt's ears were red, but he mocked: "I don't want to sleep with you."
"It's cold at night," Ye Chen was very gentle at this moment, and his voice was weak: "Just bear with it, and when I'm better tomorrow, I'll take you out with you. Don't get sick then. The firewood can burn for a long time, you Do not care."
Elt thinks about it, on the one hand he doesn't like sleeping with others, on the other hand, he feels that there are differences between men and women, and it is not good to sleep with her in the same bed, but if he gets sick again, and he can't go back tomorrow, it will be even worse. .
So he still got into the bed and kept as far away from Ye Chen as possible.
Ye Chen couldn't help but feel a little funny, she was too tired, but she still didn't want to sleep.
She hated being sick so much that it brought back a lot of unpleasant memories.
So even though she was very tired, she still supported herself and said, "Alt, talk to me."
"I refused, I don't want to tell you." Aert looked at the back of the girl who was facing the fire, fell asleep on her side, and tried to make room for the quilt for him, and couldn't help feeling pity. Hearing his voice, Ye Chen felt that the mania in his heart was much calmer, so he continued: "Please, you can say whatever you want, I like to hear your voice."
"Go to sleep when you're sick! Why do you want to talk?" Ert seemed to be disgusted, but Ye Chen was a little dazed.
why
she asked herself.
She couldn't help but recall her childhood.
"When I was young, I was always alone."
She said slowly: "My parents have gone far away and are not by my side."
At that time, both parents went to work outside. Children like Ye Chen were left-behind children. She grew up in a big family. Everyone had parents, but she didn't.
"Everyone has their own parents. They are like me during the day. They are brought by their grandparents because their parents have to go to work. But at night, their parents will come back, and I have no one."
"They were beaten and protected by their parents. Any relative who wants to beat them must consider their parents' face, but I don't have to."
So her aunt, uncle, everyone has the right to educate her with "for her good". She was always scolded by her second aunt in the morning, her uncle at noon, and her grandmother at night.
All love is several times that of other children, and all burdens are several times that of several children.
So she learned to watch words and expressions since she was a child, and learned to understand how to deal with different people.
My aunt likes sweet-mouthed children, my second aunt likes quiet children, my third uncle likes children who read books, and my uncle likes smart children...
She is too keen to know how other people are feeling, happy or unhappy, so she disguises herself to please them.
She struggled to survive in the cracks, and then kept telling herself that she had the love of many people, and she was the same as other children, or even better, because she had many people who loved her.
"But such fantasies are always shattered when they are sick."
"No one will take care of me patiently. They will cry and ask for leave for their children, but even if I fall and bleed, they have to call to argue over who should send me to see a doctor."
"When I saw a doctor and took medicine, they let me sleep by myself, and no one would care about me."
"At that time, when I was alone, I would feel very sad. Because I couldn't comfort myself any more, I was living well, I was lucky, I had the love of so many people."
"I have to face a very cruel fact—"
"I only have myself."
When her grandparents left and she was in junior high school, this became particularly obvious.
She goes to school alone, cooks by herself, and gets sick by herself.
She once had a high fever and went to the hospital to have an IV drip.
She once fainted and was sent to the hospital by passers-by. When she woke up, there was no one except the nurse who asked her to pay.
"So, I hate it, I hate being sick."
"I don't like when I'm sick, it's just me, I want someone to accompany me and talk to me..."
Before he finished speaking, Ye Chen felt that someone behind him suddenly stretched out his hand and hugged her into his arms.
The embrace was so warm and her heartbeat was so strong, he held her so quietly and said slowly, "Don't talk about it, it's annoying."
He lowered his voice: "This time you are not alone."
"I am here."
Elt opened his mouth slowly, great pity flooded into his heart, he hugged Ye Chen, and he didn't know where the emotion came from.
He suddenly felt as if he had loved this person in his previous life, in his previous life. That feeling was so unforgettable that when he embraced her again, the feeling came overwhelmingly.
He hummed out of his nose, tightened his arms, and seemed to be disdainful: "For the sake of saving me twice today, I will take care of you when you get sick in the future."
"You're not alone today, and you won't be alone in the future. Okay? Go to sleep now."
"Ok… "
Ye Chen responded and fell asleep in a daze. Elt looked at her quietly, feeling that she was asleep, and he finally spoke.
"Ye Chen," he said awkwardly, "Actually, you are a good person."
Ye Chen didn't speak, Aert held her hand carefully, his heart was beating fast, he felt that she was fast asleep, he lowered his head and kissed her hair, then quickly retracted it. Seeing that she didn't realize it, her heart was very complicated. There is hilarity, there is anger. He wanted to let go of his hand, and his body embraced the other person honestly, but in the end, he actually hummed to himself, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, Ye Chen woke up in a daze, and subconsciously said, "Alt?"
Then she heard his heartbeat, felt the warmth of his embrace, the strength of his fingers interlocking with hers.
Elt was behind her, speaking in confusion.
"Stop arguing, I'm here."
"It's always been there," he said.
In fact, this person, regardless of the previous life, the previous life, this life, the future life or death, he will always be with her.
Pity all her sorrows and heal all her sufferings.
He is always there.
