The Psychic Girl

After hearing his words, Xia Xi reacted and immediately chased after him, dragging her not-so-agile right foot and shouting behind him.

"Don't be so stingy! One day? If not, one night will do!"

This is something we can discuss! Hey! I say, don’t walk so fast! "

Yan Tianming seemed to speed up his pace, but he always kept a distance that allowed her to catch up easily.

Xia Xi tried every possible way, but couldn't get Yan Tianming to give her the Kuiyu Blood Ring on his neck.

When they returned to Yanjiabao, it was already night.

It was a cold winter night and lights were lit throughout the fort.

As soon as Yan Tianming got off the car, he went to report to the castle lord.

Xia Xi originally planned to go back to her room to change out of her dress for the birthday party and have a good sleep.

She was exhausted after a whole day of hard work.

But before she could reach her room, she saw Qing Liu leaning against the door with his arms folded.

He looked gloomy and his first words to Xia Xi were filled with anger.

"Shede and that Young Master Yan are back?!"

"Qing Liu? Why are you here? Can't Zi Ni be alone?"

When she mentioned Yan Zini, Qing Liu lowered his head and lowered his arms.

After a long silence, he finally spoke.

"... Stupid woman, go and see the master. I have never seen him like this..."

Qing Liu's eyes were full of worry and anxiety. Although he was always arrogant, there was a pleading tone in his words.

This was the first time since Xia Xi met Qing Liu that she saw him begging for something in such a humble manner.

And it was to herself, the stupid woman he had always looked down upon.

She suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter and her expression changed.

He placed his hand on Qing Liu's shoulder, trying to get closer to get a clue from his expression.

"Zini...what happened to him?"

……

Qing Liu told her the simple situation of the matter without going into details.

Basically, after Xia Xi left, they found out that a spirit beast was causing trouble at the venue, and the owner had been worried that something might happen to her, but they could do nothing.

After making sure that she was okay, Yan Zini locked himself in the room, not allowing anyone to approach him and not going out.

I stayed alone like this for a long time without making any sound.

Qing Liu deliberately did not tell her about the tooth-eating beetles and the fact that she was being monitored. It would be much simpler if she didn't know some things.

"Stupid woman, remember this, in Yanjiabao, only the master treats you best. You can't dislike him just because he has a disabled leg, let alone hurt him. Otherwise, the consequences will not only be unbearable for you, but for everyone..."

Qing Liu couldn't imagine that the out-of-control Yan Zini would use his abilities to do something irreversible.

In this world, the only people who know the horror of the insect swarm he bred are Qing Liu and Yan Tianming. They are both highly consistent in their vigilance on this point.

……

Xia Xi had never looked down on Zi Ni because of his crippled legs, let alone thought of hurting him. She didn't know why Qing Liu would say this.

She couldn't remember how many times Yan Zini had saved and helped her. Perhaps she had really taken Zini's kindness to her as a matter of course, and had been avoiding accepting it but forgetting to respond.

Obviously, she knows better than anyone how painful it is to give love but not get love in return.

Running through the winding corridors and courtyards, a drizzle began to fall from the sky without any warning.

The winter rain is like smoke and fog, floating in the courtyards and pavilions in the cold and lonely night.

It wet the ground, the grass, and also the dreams of those who were thoughtful that night.

"Tick-tock..."

Following the noisy sound of rain, she finally stood outside Yan Zini's door.

But just at the door, Xia Xi could feel the coldness and silence emanating from the house.

It's not just that there is no sound, even thoughts and breathing are gone.

"Zini, are you there? I'm back."

There was still no movement in the house.

She suddenly realized that Yan Zini was deaf.

She gently pushed open the door in front of her, and a strong aroma of alcohol hit her in the face, surprising her.

Zi Ni seldom drinks alcohol, and even if he does, it is just a few sips.

There was no light in the dim room. Apart from the little starlight shining in from the window, there was no other light source, just as darkness rejected everything like light.

Yan Zini was sitting in a wheelchair with his back to the door, motionless.

On the table was a pile of overturned wine jugs.

His thin figure was like a leaf falling in the wind and rain.

The sound of raindrops hit the branches and landed on the tiles, but it was so quiet as if he was the only one left.

Xia Xi looked at the thin and sunken face and body, and felt inexplicably distressed.

When she was only one step away from him, she stopped.

Yan Zini's reaction was really slow.

On normal days, he would be able to sense it immediately if someone walked behind him.

They had only been apart for less than a day. Was he tired because he was in a bad mood?

In order to drive away the bad guesses in his mind, Xia Xi closed his eyes and shook his head.

At the same time, Yan Zini was suddenly startled when he felt the cold wind and dim light coming into the room from outside.

He silently put down the wine glass in his hand, but did not look back immediately. Instead, he asked timidly.

"Is it Xi'er?..."

Xia Xi didn't answer either. After hesitating for a while, she walked straight up to him.

The moment she saw Yan Zini, she was stunned.

Although the light was dim, she could clearly see the red circles under Yan Zini's eyes on his pale face.

There was also a light flashing in his eyes that she couldn't understand, and starlight was flowing.

Qing Liu was right, his situation was indeed very bad. Such a decadent and gloomy Yan Zini was incompatible with the gentle boy she was familiar with.

She squatted down and placed her hands on the armrests of the wheelchair so that her eyes could be level with his and he could clearly see what she said.

"Zini, did you drink all this wine?

Qing Liu is very worried about you. What happened to you? No matter what happened, you can tell me.

Is it... because of me? If you are worried about me, then you are worrying in vain. You see, I have always been blessed!

And have you forgotten? Yan Tianming is also at the birthday party! "

As if to verify her words, Xia Xi stood up and turned around in front of him.

The pink dress sets off her pink makeup, making her look particularly beautiful and charming.

Seeing Xia Xi mention Yan Tianming, Yan Zini felt a pang of pain in his heart.

"Xi'er, do you like Brother Tianming, so you rejected me?

... or is it because of my legs?"

Yan Tianming turned his face away, afraid to know the answer, and forced himself not to look at her.

He knew that Xia Xi was not such a person, but his extreme jealousy and inferiority made him feel suffocated in this relationship.
