sick man

Mu Yao leaned on the window lattice and saw Ling Long's figure gradually shrinking into a black spot, until he could no longer see him, then looked away desolately.

This should be the last time we meet...

He lowered his head and spread out his palms, where lay quietly a piece of plain paper folded into squares, which was a gift from Linglong on the day of the Lantern Festival.

"I didn't make a wish tonight. You asked for nothing, so you didn't ask for it, but I didn't ask for anything. So I leave this wish to you. You only need to write what you want on it, and I will help you realize it." .”

"Brother Ling, I'm sorry... I can't be too greedy..."

Mu Yao smiled wryly, and slowly gathered his palms together. Suddenly, there were a few light knocks from outside the door. He quickly stuffed the things in his hands into his sleeves, adjusted his expression, and then pretended to be calm and authentic,

"Come in."

The one who entered in response was Jing Qi, who had been waiting beside Mu Yao, holding a tray covered with red brocade in his hand, with a strange expression on his face.

Mu Yao understood at a glance, pointed to the desk in front of the window, and said,

"Put it there."

Jingqi put the tray on the table according to her words, sighed softly,

"Have you really thought about it, son?"

"I thought about it three years ago, you don't have to worry about me."

Mu Yao plucked the strings a few times, and picked up a crisp string sound with his fingertips.

Jingqi continued to sigh,

"At that time, son, you hadn't met someone you liked, but now... it's different after all... After all..."

"the same."

Mu Yao interrupted him, and said flatly, "Whether it was then or now, my most important person is Xiao Yuan."

"Ugh……"

Jing Qi didn't know what to say, after much deliberation, she could only blame God for being unfair.The son was sold into Nanlou when he was young because of his family's poverty. Fortunately, the boss' brother saw that he was quite qualified to play the piano, so he taught him himself, preparing to train him to be a dedicated luthier for the Nanlou.As a luthier, I rely on my skills for a living, so naturally I don't have to sell/smile/sell/body, which is a blessing in misfortune.Unexpectedly, in the year when the son completed his studies, the only remaining younger brother in the family suffered from a strange disease, which happened to be the "disease of wealth" that the poor fear most.The young master's parents took turns to come to the south building to cry and beg, and finally the young master had no choice but to agree to pick up the guests.At that time, he had been with the young master for two years, and watched him lose weight little by little, and was awakened by nightmares every night.On the day of the first night of the bidding, the young master's eyes were no longer bright, and his whole body was floating, as if he would be blown away by the wind if he didn't pay attention.But the son is so good-looking, even if he is sick, he still has a different style.That night the south building was as bright as day, the whole lobby was packed with people, and the price tag was too high, Dad couldn't close his mouth.In the end, it was Liu Siqin, Mr. Liu who won the bid.But he didn't touch the young master, he only came to the young master's room to listen to him talk a few songs and then left.At that time, he thought that the son had met his beloved, and he was really happy for him.But later he found out that there was such a terrible agreement between the young master and Liu Siqin...

Now is the time to cash in...

"Jingqi?"

After Mu Yao finished playing a piece, he looked at Jing Qi who didn't respond with some doubts.

"Young master, I was in a daze just now..."

Jing Qi scratched her head and said sullenly, he is only a 14-year-old boy, such childish movements seem a bit cute.

Mu Yao was in a better mood, and said softly,

"I'm asking you, would you like to come with me?"

Jing Qi stared wide-eyed for a while, then suddenly jumped in front of Mu Yao, holding his arm and said excitedly,

"Young master, do you want to redeem me?"

Mu Yao smiled and nodded,

"You are still young and smart, you shouldn't be trapped in this kind of place. If you want, I..."

"I am willing, I am willing! Of course I am willing!" Jing Qi wished she could nod her head off.

He was sold into the South Tower by his family when he was only a few years old. If he had no choice, how could he be willing to stay here?And he's getting older, if it wasn't for Mu Yao who protected him many times, he would have been sent to pick up/guest by his father long ago, how could he still live innocently?

Fortunately, he was also filled with emotion.

The young master is already too busy to take care of himself, but he still doesn't forget to think about him...

Jingqi couldn't help herself for a while, she knelt beside Mu Yao as she did when she was a child, put her head on his lap, and acted coquettishly with a blushing face.

"My lord, thank you, you are Jingqi's benefactor."

Mu Yao combed his loose hair for him, and couldn't help laughing,

"My legs are going to be numb by you, is this how you repay your kindness?"

Jingqi pretended not to hear, she rubbed her head on his lap, humming in comfort,

"Didn't you always want to have a cat? This is how cats are affectionate to their owners. You should treat Jing Qi like a kitten."

Mu Yao burst out laughing,

"Where is such a big kitten? I don't know how much money I eat for a meal. I can't afford it."

"My lord, I don't eat much, a small bowl is enough!" Jing Qi quickly defended herself, for fear that Mu Yao really didn't want him.

Mu Yao helped him sit up and asked seriously,

"Has Jingqi planned for the future?"

"Ok!"

Jingqi replied without hesitation,

"I will go wherever the young master goes. I will follow the young master and serve the young master for the rest of his life!"

Mu Yao shook his head in disapproval,

"You know, in a short time, I will be no different from a useless person, you will suffer so much with me..."

"I'm not afraid of suffering!"

It was the first time that Jingqi cut off his words so forcefully,

"Jing Qi still understands the principle of repaying kindness. Young Master taught me to read and write since I was a child, and treats me like a younger brother. Now he wants to redeem me. What right do I have to despise Young Master?"

"Jingqi, I don't want you to repay me by redeeming my life for you. I just want you to do something you like."

Mu Yao touched the top of Jingqi's head, his smile was a little more sentimental.

Jing Qi looked at him half understanding,

"Young master, my favorite thing is to be with you!"

Mu Yao couldn't help but smile wryly, and could only say,

"That's all, let's talk about it when you grow up!"

"Uh-huh!"

Knowing that Mu Yao agreed, Jing Qi happily went down to prepare dinner for him, humming a song.

As soon as he left, the heavy expression on Mu Yao's face returned.

His eyes wandered around the room blankly for a while, and finally fell on the bright red brocade.

"Mu Yao, let's make a deal."

That night three years ago, also in this room, Liu Siqin held his trembling hand, suddenly laughed, and made a condition that he could not resist.

"I promise that no one will dare to touch you in the future. If you don't want to, I certainly won't touch you. As for your brother, I will take care of him until he recovers."

"What deal?" Mu Yao was moved.

Liu Siqin stared at his face for a long time, and Mu Yao still remembered his persistent and obsessive gaze, as if he wanted to eat him alive.I don't know how long it took before Liu Siqin woke up like a dream, stretched out his hand and slowly slid up his chin, the palm finally stopped on his eyes, covering them gently.

"I just want your eyes."

"What?" Mu Yao looked at him puzzled.

"I want your eyes."

Liu Siqin repeated it again.

Mu Yao still didn't understand what he meant. The eyes were on his face, and they were not things. It could be said that he wanted them. Why...

He was startled, and suddenly understood what Liu Siqin meant.

"Are you going to... poach my eyes?"

Liu Siqin smiled, his smile was gentle and harmless, just like a modest gentleman, but what he said was creepy.

"That's right, otherwise how would I get these eyes? I don't know what Mu Yao wants?"

Mu Yao was silent for a long time, until Liu Siqin was about to lose his patience, he asked aloud,

"When is Mr. Liu going to pick it up?"

"Wait for you."

"Okay, I promise you."

Mu Yao readily agreed, but Liu Siqin was a little surprised.

"You don't ask why?"

Mu Yao smiled,

"I have nothing to do with Mr. Liu, but you happen to want what I have. It's just a deal, so why should you know so clearly?"

"You don't regret it?"

"No regrets."

He answered so resolutely that day, and he thought he would not regret it.After all, if he traded a pair of eyes for the lives of Qing Bai and Xiao Yuan, no matter what, he earned it.

But... that person appeared...

How can he count his own heart?

fortunately.

Fortunately, only five days.

After five days, he lost his eyes and all his unrealistic fantasies.

"Son..."

Through the crack of the door, Jingqi saw the people in the room touching her eyes in the mirror in a daze again, not even noticing the tears falling down. Can't think of any way.

"Cousin, are you really going back to the villa tomorrow?"

Upstairs in Xiaohongxing, Song Anwen was still sitting in the same seat, and the person opposite him was still Linglong, but it gave people a completely different feeling, as if a half-grown boy became a man overnight, with curious eyes on everything. There is more maturity and stability that cannot be explained clearly.

It's not really because of that...Mu Yao, is it?

"Well, I have been bothering my cousin for the past few days. This is a little bit of my heart."

As Ling Long said, he handed him a beautiful sandalwood box.

Song Anwen didn't know how to give in, so he took it and opened it happily. Looking at the box full of beautifully carved Hetian jade, his heart almost melted.After touching and looking at it for a while, he reluctantly closed the box and took time to care about his cousin.

"Cousin, should you take over the villa when you go back this time?"

Ling Long nodded helplessly,

"My father has long wanted to take my mother on a trip. I have sent many hidden guards to patrol the past few days. Yesterday even the manager of the village was found. If I don't go back, it is my father who will come in person. .”

"Hehe, my uncle loves my aunt."

There was a little envy in Song Anwen's words. After all, it is not easy to find someone who wants to be with him for a lifetime.For example, he is used to sleeping in flowers and sleeping in willows, and he doesn't know where his heart has gone.Ling Long followed his father, infatuated...

Song Anwen thought of Mu Yao again in a blink of an eye. It was after meeting him that Ling Long changed.One of them is tall and handsome, the other is slender and handsome, they are a good match, but it is a pity that Liu Siqin took the lead.

Ugh……

"Cousin, tomorrow Mu Yao is going to marry Liu Siqin as a concubine, so forget about him when you go back. With your family background and looks, are you afraid that you won't find someone you like?" After finishing speaking, he said earnestly Pat him on the shoulder.

Ling Long didn't respond either, he just played with the wine glass in his hand,

Song Anwen had no choice but to pour himself another glass of wine. While drinking, he heard the sound of people stepping on the stairs next to him.

He practiced it for Linglong tonight, the upper floor was covered by him, and some blind person came up to it, Song Anwen pushed away the chair and was about to scold people, but who would have thought that someone would run past him like a rabbit, Go straight to Linglong.

"Young Master Ling, Young Master Ling! Please, please save my young master!"
