dimly lit

The moment he stepped into the lobby, Shen Anhuai suddenly had the idea of ​​turning around and running.Although there were only three people in the lobby, it was so stuffy that people couldn't breathe.Seen from Hongdou's back, her immature shoulders trembled slightly, her head was bowed deeply, and she was sobbing silently, like a puppy that has made a mistake.Shen Anhuai really wanted to go up and pat her on the shoulder, but he could only sigh quietly, and knelt down beside her quite skillfully, and it was rare for him to kneel up straight.

"You came just in time, I..."

When Mrs. Rong saw Shen Anhuai, an unknown fire broke out.But before she finished speaking, Master Rong stopped her with his hand.Looking at the frowning Mr. Rong, who was not angry and pretentious, Madam Rong swallowed the censure she was about to blurt out.

I don't know what happened to Master Rong today, if Madam Rong wanted to scold Shen Anhuai in normal times, he would never stop her.Just as he was thinking about it, Master Rong threw out the folding fan in his hand, and with a bang, he smashed it on Shen Anhuai's right hand wrapped in anger, causing him to gasp in fright, and everyone in the lobby was shocked.

We all know that when Master Rong started to smash the things around him, he was probably really angry, the kind that Mrs. Rong couldn't hold back.

"First, get married to Hongdou. Both of you have signed the contract of sale, don't try to play tricks on me. If you run out of the Rong Mansion calmly and do something that is not good for Xun'er, I will never tolerate it."

After finishing speaking, Master Rong glanced at Hongdou, the little girl was frightened by the cold sharp eyes, she shook her body and lowered her head even lower.

"Secondly, take your things and get the hell out of Rongfu. Go to Xifang, go to Zuiyuan Tower, whatever you want. Until we find a way to untangle the gu, our Rongfu will still protect you from worrying about food and clothing. Worrying. But, don't get any closer to our Rong family."

Shen Anhuai, who was kneeling on the ground, silently clenched his fists.Master Rong's words made Shen Anhuai feel like a stick in his throat, scratching his heart with claws.He knew that to Rongfu, he was a dangerous existence.If you can't control it, it is not impossible to threaten Rong Xun's life with love Gu in the future.That's why he tried every means. After the assassination incident, the Rong family believed that Amusha's Gu was not just a poorly crafted and ineffective semi-finished product.

"Old, master...Actually, Hongdou thinks that it doesn't have to be chosen..."

With great difficulty, Hongdou summoned up her courage, raised her tear-stained face, and wanted to say a few words for Shen Anhuai, but was swept away by Master Rong's fierce gaze, and then lowered her head again, her rough hands tightly clutching the corners of her clothes, tightly Almost bloodless.

"I hope that you can decide some things now without discussing with Xun'er. Delaying things is what I hate the most."

Now, do you have to decide?I always think that things are still far away, and one day I will face them with Rong Xun. After thinking about it, do I still rely too much on him?Shen Anhuai couldn't help but a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

After waking up in the morning, it suddenly started to rain lightly.The noisy cicadas became quieter, and the bed was pushed away, and the sultry heat and humidity came oncoming, bringing the smell of retting grass leaves.Autumn has not yet entered, and the heat has not faded.

In this kind of weather, Shen Anhuai would definitely sleep until Sishi before waking up.Recalling his lazily lying on the mattress with his defenseless sleeping face, Rong Xun quietly showed a gentle smile.

I thought I could read the account book in peace today, but after turning a few pages, Rong Xun ran into the house in a panic, and was attracted by Yun Shen who hurriedly forgot to knock on the door.Yun Shen is a steady person, and there are very few moments of panic like this, Rong Xun couldn't help but not blame Yun Shen, but became curious.

"Second Young Master! Lobby, lobby... Mr. Shen!"

Hearing Yun Shen mentioning Shen Anhuai, with this expression again, Rong Xun's heart suddenly tugged.

"What's up with him?"

Got into trouble again and got caught in the lobby?Rong Xun rubbed his eyebrows, got up and closed the ledger.Hearing Yun Shen's answer, he was suddenly stunned.

"No... yes, Mr. Shen is about to be kicked out by the master, Second Young Master, go and have a look! Hey Second Young Master, umbrella, umbrella! It's raining heavily, please put on an umbrella, it will cause wind and cold!"

"unnecessary."

It was really raining heavily.The lobby is not far away, it will be faster if you take the side path and enter through the side door.When he arrived at the side door of the lobby, Rong Xun's hair was already soaked a lot, dripping down his long hair, and Ruo Xueguan was dressed wet and stuck to his hair, looking extremely weak.

Shen Anhuai knelt under the steps of the lobby, and earnestly bowed to Master Rong who was standing above the steps in front of the main entrance of the lobby with his hands behind his back, and Mrs. Rong who was a little worried beside him.Then he stood up, ignoring the drenched clothes and messy hair wet from the rain.

Hongdou finally seemed unbearable, and rushed down the steps crying, only to be dragged back by three or two servants.But Hongdou is not a delicate young lady from an aristocratic family. She has been doing housework since she was a child, which makes her more powerful than girls of the same age.Those domestic servants also thought that Hongdou was just a little girl, so they hardly tried to pull her.But Hongdou didn't care about her image, she pushed away the person holding her with a force on her arm, and while they were stumbling, she wiped away her tears with her sleeve and rushed over, plunged into Shen Anhuai's arms.

"Hongdou, you must work hard in the Rong Mansion in the future, and don't cause any more trouble. I know you have always been a good boy who listens to your brother, right?"

"Brother doesn't need to like Hongdou, nor marry Hongdou. However, it's my fault that brother can't leave..."

"It's not your fault, go back."

Shen Anhuai smiled at the tearful Hongdou, gently pushed her away, then bowed to Master Rong.

"Shen Anhuai thanked Mr. Rong and Mrs. Rong for taking her in. I hope you will forgive me for disturbing you."

Master Rong said nothing, and caught a glimpse of Rong Xun at the side door in a blink of an eye.Madam Rong followed her gaze and saw that Rong Xun was drenched in the rain, so she quickly called Rong Xun over, took his hand, and took out a silk handkerchief to wipe off the rain on his face.As for Rong Xun, he just stared at Shen Anhuai in the rain from the beginning to the end, no longer had his standard warm smile, replaced by an expressionless trance, as if his soul had been sucked away by a monster.

"Don't bring anything, just leave?"

"Ms. Shen has always used the sky as his cover, and has nothing to take with him. There is one treasure, but now it seems that he can't take it away no matter what, so it's better to let it go."

Shen Anhuai smiled helplessly, then turned around and wanted to leave.Just after taking two steps, Rong Xun's voice came from behind.It was obviously a deep roar, but it exploded in his heart like a thunderbolt.

"Shen Anhuai!"

There must be a way.But now he can't disobey, he can only choose to accept it.After leaving, try to discuss with Rong Xun.You clearly thought about it, but you can't miss it at this moment, and you can't look back.Otherwise, it would cause trouble to Rong Xun and make him extremely distressed.

"Ah, is the second young master coming to see you off too? Take care."

Shen Anhuai looked back and smiled, then hurriedly regained his composure, and left quickly.You can't look too much, those eyes, that person, how can you not be obsessed.I just hope that he can understand this intention, which is helpless, not a severance of kindness.

"Father, mother, Xun'er begs you to keep Mr. Shen."

"It's rainy and cold, don't kneel down, let's go back to the house and talk to your father."

Behind him came the rustling of cloth, Hongdou's cry, and Rong Xun's firm and steady voice.Shen Anhuai closed his eyes tightly, allowing the rain to slide down from the top of his head and across his cheeks, leaving tear-like marks and itchy touch.

Mrs. Rong wanted to bring Rong Xun back to the house, but she couldn't move him no matter what. It seemed that she was determined to confront her, so she had to give up.

"Mr. Shen is very important to Xun'er, not only because he is connected with his fate and is inseparable. If Mr. Shen is driven away, the outside is no safer than at home, and Xun'er's life is also hanging in his heart, and he cannot live in peace. "

"..."

"Father, I know what you are thinking when you don't speak. Since I was a child, I have been the best at guessing your thoughts, right?"

"Stop messing around."

"It's not nonsense. Regarding Mr. Shen, I have seriously thought about it very early. I don't know what Mr. Shen has committed, which made Dad drive him away. I will apologize to you on his behalf, and I am willing to accept any punishment."

"Xun'er, what do you mean? He is asking for trouble, and he will not eat the toast and take the fine wine."

Rong Xun looked up at Master Rong earnestly in almost every word, as if he was telling a very normal and established truth.

There are probably two reasons why the father suddenly wanted to throw Shen Anhuai out of the Rong Mansion.One is that Shen Anhuai is separated from him, a person with a strong desire for control, and he can't control him, that is, he can't control his son's safety. Out of sight, out of mind.Second, the matter between him and Shen Anhuai has already been known to some extent.It is unacceptable for the two of them to live together day and night, even if there is love Gu in their body, they cannot agree.

Rong Xun was well versed in this way, thinking about it, he was a little relieved.Father will not do anything more unfavorable to Shen Anhuai, so sleeping on the street will never happen.It's just that right now, how can I make my father more or less accept Shen Anhuai through the love gu?

"Father, Xun'er begs you to take back your promise. Even if you don't rely on marriage, Mr. Shen will definitely abide by his own law and abide by his duty."

"Duty? Does he know his duty? If he knows, he always makes mistakes, and sneaks out when things don't go his way? Shen Anhuai, tell yourself, do you know your duty?"

Master Rong sneered, and asked Shen Anhuai contemptuously.Hearing being called for questioning, Shen Anhuai clicked his tongue quietly, wiped off the raindrops on the broken hair on his forehead with his hands, and bowed his hands forward respectfully.

"Returning to the master, Shen Anhuai was fortunate to enter the Rong's mansion. The so-called duty has always been to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and to cherish oneself. Be with the second young master and share his worries."

After all, Shen Anhuai smiled brightly, he knew that he could catch Rong Xun's words and cooperate well, this was something only he could do.Master Rong was so choked that he couldn't speak for a while, what Shen Anhuai said was true, but still felt a little uncomfortable.

"Nonsense. Today you don't agree with this relative, just get out of the Rong Mansion!"

Master Rong blushed, thinking he was in a state of exasperation, he flicked his clothes, and was about to go back to the house and give up.The servants around him also understood what the master meant, and looked at each other, and walked towards Shen Anhuai swiftly.

"Eh? Hey, what are you doing, don't drag me, I will go by myself! I..."

Before Shen Anhuai could finish speaking, the servants raised his arms and roughly dragged him outside, gradually drifting away.This master Rong is so domineering, can the head of the family not be so unreasonable?He had to think of a way, if he was kicked out like this, it would be even more difficult to see Rong Xun.Could it be that only...

"Second Young Master!"

Suddenly, an exclamation was heard in front of the main entrance of the lobby.The rain was empty, and when I looked up, I vaguely saw a figure in black clothes kneeling down facing the lobby, it was Rong Xun's solid back.He remained silent and no longer spoke, but his actions had already expressed all his wishes.Master Rong really stopped and turned around, unable to see his expression clearly.Madam Rong hurriedly tried to pull him up, then raised her head and said something to Master Rong in a panic.But Rong Xun knelt firmly, like a child fighting with anger.

He is so proud, he is so unattainable, and he is so high.For one person, in this situation, under pressure and talking with everyone, forgetting that he is the second young master of the Rong family, he knelt down and begged for mercy without hesitation.

The rain seemed to be getting heavier, and it was so blurry that I couldn't see the people in front of me clearly, and I couldn't hear the words in my ears.Shen Anhuai suddenly felt that something hit his heart hard, and what it brought was not pain, but a feeling that was ready to come out.

"Rong Xun, Rong Xun! Listen to me!"

Shen Anhuai took a breath, broke away from the servant who was supporting him and was going to continue to go out, wiped the rainwater covering his eyes with his wet sleeves, and ran towards Rong Xun, everyone's eyes were attracted go.

"The first time I saw you since I was a child, I knew that I identified you. I was not sure it was you until I tried to show my cards when I was drunk and saw the birthmark like a small fish on your shoulder! I was in the West I grew up in the poor street of Fangfang, lived under the fence of others, and wandered all over the world, but I always wanted to see you again if I was destined, once is enough. But after entering Rongfu, after knowing that Xun'er was you, I became greedy , I want to see you more than once. I like you and want to be you for the rest of my life."

Everything became quiet, only the sound of pattering rain, and Shen Anhuai's hoarse cry with a smile in his eyes could be heard.Everyone was stunned, only Rong Xun stood up slowly, and looked at Shen Anhuai, with a pair of beautiful eyebrows and eyes full of complicated emotions, which were surprise, admiration, and love.

Seeing Rong Xun right in front of his eyes, Shen Anhuai grinned mischievously, and put the wet hair on his temples behind his ears.He didn't look like someone who was almost kicked out of the house, but rather like a playful child who came home late in the rain.Rong Xun approached Shen Anhuai step by step, and the rain hit him bit by bit, soaking his ink-like long hair piece by piece again.Walking to the front, the two looked at each other and smiled.

At this moment, everyone in the Rong Mansion stared wide-eyed, looking at each other in disbelief.Some daring people have already started whispering, this can't be acting, I haven't heard that the second young master has a habit of breaking sleeves?It turns out that the time the second young master got lost when he was a child, he was tortured by someone?

The twittering and gossip became louder and louder, but it stopped abruptly with a crisp and ear-piercing sound of broken jade.Everyone looked at the source of the voice, it was indeed Master Rong.The head of the family who was not angry at all, his face was almost black now, if there were a hundred arrows in his eyes, he also smashed the jade wrench in his hand severely.Mrs. Rong wanted to persuade Rong Xun to come back quickly, but she turned her head to look at Mr. Rong beside him who was burning with anger, clutching a silk handkerchief, and kept silent like a cicada.

"Come here! Eighty-year-old master, family law to serve. Let him taste the taste of treason!"

After saying that, he couldn't bear to look directly at him, and walked away angrily.Mrs. Rong looked at Rong Xun who was holding Shen Anhuai's hands tightly, sighed, and hurried to catch up with Master Rong.And the faces of those who were whispering to each other just now were even more indescribable, as if they had witnessed an extremely unlikely miracle.

"Eighty board? Hey Rong Xun, how big is your eighty board? Does it hurt? Will I be able to take care of myself for the rest of my life?"

Shen Anhuai rolled his eyes, plunged into Rong Xun's arms, and no longer cared about other people's eyes, he rubbed back and forth in that embrace with the familiar and elegant fragrance, as if he wanted to wipe off the wet rain on his head. some.Eighty boards, though, sounds daunting enough.

"That's great, that's great..."

Rong Xun pinched Shen Anhuai's face, with a spoiled smile on his face.I don't know whether it was because of the hot meal just now, or the public outcry of affection that made this seemingly straightforward and bold person blush.

"Okay, Rong Xun! I'm about to suffer [-] boards, and I still agreed!"

Shen Anhuai jumped out of Rong Xun's embrace like a rabbit, grabbed his hand that was about to pinch his face again, puzzled, and stared straight at Rong Xun who was smiling like in the past.

"The eighty board is one of the punishments of our Rong family's family law. It is only used when a serious mistake is made. It hurts so much that I basically have to stay in bed for several months."

"Ah? Oh my god, it's terrible! Rong Xun, you, you, you...you're still laughing!"

"Because the family law is only for the members of the Rong family, even Yun Shen is not eligible to be dealt with by the family law if he made a mistake. Besides, father never said that he would drive you away. Now, do you understand what I mean, my wife ?”

Rong Xun also ignored other people's eyes, embraced Shen Anhuai who was stunned in place, gently wiped the rain from his hair, and kissed his forehead.
