Quick Wear: Don't come over here, you are looking for trouble

Xie He didn't leave. They both lay on the couch, each with their own thoughts.

Xu Bai thought of Liu'er's question and looked through Gu Nian's memories. The reason why he dragged his feet and didn't leave the palace was because Young Master Gu had gone through an extremely difficult time.

When he was in the mansion, he had no worries about food and clothing, so he had no concept of money after his family was broken up. After his only silver was cheated away, his outer clothes were stripped off and sold.

There was only one copper coin left in my pocket.

He touched his pocket, his stomach growling. The steamed buns that he had never even looked at before were now a steaming temptation.

“…a bun.”

One penny could only buy a vegetarian bun, but Gu Nian was also very happy. The thin boy held it in his hands and took a careful bite.

He was so hungry that he thought the buns were more delicious than all the delicacies he had tasted before.

But he doesn't know the rules.

There were many ragged, hungry beggars on the street. When they saw Gu Nian walking on the road, holding the buns without dodging and looking thin, they rushed up to him, snatched the buns from his head, and pushed Gu Nian hard.

"what!"

His elbows, knees and palms were all scratched. Gu Nian started crying, not because he fell heavily, but because the bun he had finally decided to buy with his last penny was snatched away by the man who swallowed it in two bites.

"My buns!"

"Get out of here! This is our territory!"

"Pooh!"

He wanted to rush forward to grab it, but it was too late. A group of beggars surrounded him, spitting at him, and punching and kicking him to insult him unscrupulously.

Looking back, he was always hungry. In the seemingly endless hunger, the young man realized how precious it was to have food and shelter.

So Xu Bai has been hesitating, and the main system has not judged it as ooc, because the young master is indecisive by nature, and he doesn't want to live the hard life he had before.

Of course, Xu Bai also made some changes.

For example, when he came over, Gu Nian should have been curled up under a dirty hut, with dirty clothes and body. This image was difficult to win Su Shi's sympathy, and it was not good for the subsequent plan, so the young master was discouraged and staggered to the pawnshop, and tiptoed with great effort to hand over the jade pendant left by his father.

The boy's idea was very naive: he heard that a person would look the same as he did before death and go to the underworld, so before going to see his parents... he must clean himself up.

I originally planned to find a beautiful and pleasing place to end my life, but I didn't expect to meet Su Shi.

Who would want to die? As long as there is a little hope, people will choose to live, even if it is a shameless and shameful life.

So Su Shi just showed a little kindness, and the young master followed him.

Xu Bai carefully turned his head to look beside him and found that the man also had his eyes open.

Unexpectedly, the two people's eyes met.

"Can't sleep?"

There was no sleepiness in Xie He's voice. He moved his body slightly and asked Xu Bai, "What are you thinking about?"

The young man didn't say anything, so Xie He spoke on his own, "When we met, I was already grown up. It was because my father's children died one after another, so even if I was not favored, I could still eat enough."

"But before that, there was a particularly difficult period. The maid who served me died, her body was stiff and smelly, and no one called me by my nickname to fetch water or cook for me anymore... At that time, I thought, why are the palaces so big? There are endless palaces one after another, like carefully carved cages, trapping everyone. I was hungry for a few days, and I couldn't hold on any longer, so I ran out, and ran and ran..."

Xu Bai listened quietly. The young master was easily soft-hearted. When he heard Xie He calmly talk about his past, he felt pity and mutual understanding. So he stretched out a pair of cold little hands and patted Xie He on the arm in an unskilled manner.

The boy was still very kind. He thought the sound of his sniffing was very light, but Xie He had already heard it.

"Then I seemed to faint." He continued, with a soft smile on his lips, "I had a dream. In the dream, a fairy in white clothes gave me a steamed bun."

"I'm not lying to you." Xie He's voice was surprisingly gentle, "I've always dreamed about him in the past few years."

"You..." Xu Bai's eyebrows drooped, and there was an obvious cry in his voice, "You went to him just to say thank you?"

Xie He wanted to see his face through the dim candlelight, but he couldn't see it clearly. He only felt a sense of pride and heartache in his heart.

I felt proud because the boy was crying for me, and I felt sad because I made him cry.

Your Majesty now laid out the whole story of why he used the jade because he saw those worried eyes before lying down.

When Xu Bai first entered the palace, his eyes were still clear. Even if there was fear and resentment in them, they were still bright and clear, allowing people to see through them at a glance. But after only staying in the palace for a few months, the young master's eyes changed.

Xie He's hand touched Xu Bai's face and easily felt the wet tear marks.

"But how can I see the person in the dream?"

His face was held by Xie He, but tears were still streaming down his cheeks. He muttered to himself, his heart aching.

Gu Nian couldn't bear to see other people suffer, and always thought that he could change something, but he didn't realize that he was just an ant trying to shake a tree. He trusted feelings too much, was naive and stupid, and always made wedding dresses for others in vain. Therefore, in the original plot, Su Shi easily used "love" to kidnap and got the jade.

【Xie He’s Favorability: 80】

There were so many tears that the emperor simply came over and hugged him in his arms.

At this moment, he suddenly thought: Why not just forget it? Why force Gu Nian like this just for a piece of jade? Even if the little fairy saved him, didn't Gu Nian save him? Besides...what if the piece of jade couldn't make the person in his dream meet him?

The body in my arms was trembling slightly, and the whimpering sound hadn't stopped yet. It looked like a pitiful little cat that had not been weaned. If it had no one to rely on, it would die at any moment.

Xie He hasn't realized yet that Xu Bai's position in his heart has changed.
