Marrying Gold and Jade

Xuan Ye could hear his footsteps, so he didn't hide.

He took another bite of the raw sweet potato in his hand, looked up and said pitifully: "Your Highness, I'm hungry..."

He had dug the sweet potato himself, but he was afraid of the filling being exposed and dared not light a fire, so he could only eat it raw under such harsh conditions.

Xu Jinxuan was not moved, but just reminded: "You let Tian Shuiqing out."

"Ah? Did you just lock it up here?"

Xuan Ye was good in martial arts, but his brain was not particularly good. Thinking of what his sisters had told him, he got up from the ground holding the raw sweet potato.

"Oh, by the way, Your Highness, Sister Yunniang asked me to tell you that your poison must be eradicated by your twentieth birthday, not even a day less."

"Even if you really like that girl, you have to be patient and not..."

As he was speaking, seeing his master's gaze becoming increasingly fierce, Xuan Ye belatedly stopped talking.

But this is really important!

However, Xuanye did not say the words "break the virginity" in the end.

This room was originally for him to live in, and in order to cover up his tracks, all the bedding on the couch was put away.

Xu Jinxuan just said: "Take out your bedding."

Xuan Ye went to get it as he was told.

After handing it to him, he responded, "What do you use at night?"

In return, Xu Jinxuan said: "I can't die."

For a young and strong boy, it won’t be a big deal if he doesn’t have to cover himself with bedding for one night.

But the delicate little thing next door might catch a cold or have a fever.

Xuan Ye sighed and was forced to accept the result.

But Lin Yu was looking at the bedding with worry.

"Should I live in the same room with you?"

There is clearly a house next to it.

Thinking that she had never been in there, Xu Jinxuan said casually, "There are a lot of snakes in the two rooms."

This was not a lie, one room was Xuanye's bedroom, and the other was indeed used as a snake cellar, where many pythons were raised for making poison.

"Want to take a look?"

Lin Yu silently lowered his head and looked at the little blue snake at hand.

Now it seems that it is quite beautiful and human.

Ordinary snakes are not so docile.

"No need, I'll just sleep on the bed stool next to your desk."

Anyway, the room is quite big, so it wouldn't be inappropriate for them to occupy one side each.

It's just this bed...

Lin Yu didn't say anything, but tried hard to persuade himself not to get sick and just get through the night.

She was about to raise her hand to take it when Xu Jinxuan also reacted.

Give her Xuanye's bedding.

This belongs to that kid Xuan Ye.

He avoided it calmly and put the bedding on his own bed.

He changed into another set and handed it to her: "Use this."

"No, it makes no difference."

She was speaking from the heart, she just thought that the bed and quilt belonged to the witch doctor, and she thought that they should at least be aired before being put in the cabinet to make them cleaner.

Xu Jinxuan's kindness was ruthlessly rejected by her, and he immediately felt annoyed.

"Use it if you are allowed to." Then he stuffed the quilt into her arms in a firm manner.

The guest should follow the host's wishes.

Lin Yu muttered to himself twice and could only accept this result.

Although life in the mountains is peaceful, it is quite tiring to do everything by yourself.

Lin Yu skipped many of the bathing procedures, quickly wiped his body with a silk handkerchief behind the screen, and prepared to sleep in his clothes on the bed.

As soon as she sat down, a flash of lightning illuminated her face.

The rain had subsided for a while, but there was a faint sound of thunder.

If I were at home now, Qingdai would sleep with me.

Only a candle was lit at the head of Xu Jinxuan's bed. The man didn't react much to the thunder and lightning. He simply washed up and walked to the couch.

As soon as I walked through the screen, I saw a dark figure holding bedding.

Lightning flashed across the sky, illuminating the girl's face again. Xu Jinxuan saw the fear she was trying hard to suppress.

"Can I, please, move the bed stool over here?"

Perhaps she realized that her request was rude, so she stammered.

Fortunately, the man didn't remain silent for too long, so she didn't feel embarrassed.

Xu Jinxuan seemed helpless and said, "Okay."

A dull dragging sound was heard in the room, and Xu Jinxuan even lent a hand.

Only when she was lying down did he ask, "Are you afraid of thunder?"

"Yes, I have been afraid of it since I was a child."

The man let down the bed curtains, and the room became dark. Her figure was no longer clear, but he seemed to have let down his guard a little.

“I was afraid when I was a kid, too.”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud thunder.

Lin Yu couldn't sleep at all, so she asked him, "What happened next? How did you overcome it?"

The man behind the curtain was silent for a while.

There was another burst of thunder in the middle, which made Lin Yu wonder if he had fallen asleep.

Only Xu Jinxuan knew how long he had been silent.

Then I decided to tell her: "Later, no one really cared about me. After hearing it so many times, I was no longer afraid."

The light-colored curtains were occasionally illuminated, just like the moon-white robe he wore both times.

Although Lin Yu couldn't see his expression clearly, she could hear the sadness in his words.

"Then I'll accompany you today."

Xu Jinxuan looked at her.

Naturally, I couldn't see anything clearly. There was only a quilt slightly raised on the bed stool.

But he said, "Today, are you going to accompany me, or am I going to accompany you?"

She was obviously too frightened to sleep.

Lin Yu didn't know if it was because the mountain was high and close to the sky, but the thunder tonight was louder than any other time he had heard at home.

She missed home very much.

I miss my soft bedding and my mother’s warm embrace.

But as I thought about it, it became hard to ignore the pile of mess at home.

For example, the father who deliberately distanced himself from her, Wan Ying whose identity was unknown, and...

Lin Ji's attitude is unclear.

Especially Lin Ji, she didn't dare to speak to anyone around her.

"Are you asleep?"

The thunder had not stopped yet, and Lin Yu was afraid that he would leave her and fall asleep.

So I just made small talk: "What disease do you have? What do your parents do?"

"Are they busy? That's why they don't have time to take care of you?"

She asked too many questions.

Xu Jinxuan put one hand behind his head, forced to recall his childhood when he was regarded as a monster, and recalled the palace, his knuckles slowly tightened into fists.

"Why don't you tell me about yourself."

Lin Yu really had something on her mind, and she felt that he was safe, so she told him, but he had nowhere to tell anyone else.

"Me..."

The matter of Wan Ying was confusing and hard to explain, so Lin Yu simply said, "My mother has been very anxious recently and has been wanting to marry me off. She has also chosen a very good man for me."

The memories of the green tiles and red roofs were interrupted, and Xu Jinxuan's attention returned to her.

"Ah."

Seeing that he was willing to respond, Lin Yu opened up a little more.

"But just yesterday, I rejected that marriage."

"Why?"

"Because I know I don't like that person that much."

Xu Jinxuan's emotions, which had just calmed down, were stirred up again by her next words.

"But I have a... savior, so to speak. I don't know if I like him or not."

It was too bizarre to say that they died together in their previous lives. Anyway, Ming Yuan was willing to give his life to him, so it was not wrong to say that he was his savior.

Xu Jinxuan: "Go on."
