"If I were your friend, I would never let you down in this life."

Hearing these words, Zhuo Donglai felt his heart tremble violently, but Zhuo Donglai was Zhuo Donglai after all, his calculating mind and absolutely controlling rationality made him calm down quickly.Then raised the corners of his lips and sneered:

"He also said that there is no mercy, and I haven't seen you say that before." Ye Gucheng said that he was not unshakable, but in this life, there is a Sima Chaoqun who makes him give wholeheartedly, in exchange for betrayal without hesitation, it is enough, Ye Gucheng It wasn't Sima Chaoqun, he was originally a hero, he had an honorable status, he didn't need to build it himself, he didn't need to help him, that was the point he worked hard to make Sima reach in his previous life, but later, Zhuo Donglai sneered in his heart, even if he was alone, he was still Zhuo Donglai, But Zhuo Donglai, who was behind the great hero Sima Chaoqun, was no longer here. Thinking this way, he didn't know what it was like.

Ye Gucheng took a deep breath, Zhuo Donglai, who was too suspicious, was too difficult to deal with, but miraculously, he still didn't want to give up. There was a strong voice in his heart. If he gave up now, he would miss something that could never be repeated in this life. , he calmed down, sorted out his thoughts, and said:

"When we first met in Baiyun City until recently, you have been very strong, calm and self-possessed, even if your life was dying at the beginning, you still remained awake." Ye Gucheng recalled the scene when he first met Zhuo Donglai, and the injury was much worse than now , but his eyes are still trying to keep clear, and his face is still calm and breezy, without the fear and embarrassment of a dying person at all. Maybe it is such a look that made Ye Gucheng decide to save him without much hesitation. Thinking of this, Ye Gucheng I still admire him in my heart, "I used to be afraid and take advantage of you, but I didn't have the idea of ​​expelling you. Maybe I should have understood at that time that Ye Gucheng wanted to make Zhuo Donglai a friend, and the idea came to him right then."

Zhuo Donglai didn't speak, didn't even look at him, Ye Gucheng didn't care and continued:

"In the first half of Ye Gucheng's life, he had Baiyun City, he had a sword, and he had no friends...I don't deny that today's incident has affected me, but if you define my feelings based on this, it is an insult to me and you Own."

Zhuo Donglai looked up at Ye Gucheng, his eyes were full of magnanimity, it was this damn magnanimity, he peeped into his own privacy, it was the proof that he killed his relatives at birth, the evidence that he was played by God, but he was still so magnanimous, his eyes The darker the darkness, the intellectually he understood that Ye Gucheng did not despise him, but emotionally he couldn't get past this hurdle.

"If you say it's because of your legs..."

"Enough! Get out!"

It was a string that could not be touched by others, but Ye Gucheng plucked it again and again, Zhuo Donglai's face was hideous, his voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, and he crushed the teacup in his hand.Is it because the excessive blood loss affected his usual clear mind, or because Ye Gucheng was standing in front of him, his mood wavered a little.Ye Gucheng, Zhuo Donglai subtly felt a trace of sadness in his heart, how deep impression Zhuo Donglai left on Ye Gucheng when they first met, and Ye Gucheng is not.White clothes win the snow, temperament is like a fairy, this is Zhuo Donglai's appearance that is impossible to show in his life, he tried his best to portray Sima Chaoqun as a hero with this image, but a fake is a fake, fortunately Sima Chaoqun was not in front of Ye Gucheng , the contrast is not so sharp.

So that when he later learned of Ye Gucheng's plot, he even felt a subtle pleasure in his heart, accompanied by an unexplainable anger, that was Ye Gucheng, the first person he met was suitable for him. All the people who think about the light in their hearts even surpass those who are not only indomitable, not only superior in martial arts, but also in a prominent position. All of this is what he planned for him day and night behind Sima Chaoqun's back. Ye Gucheng has more than these He is a white cloud in a distant mountain, an ancient city overseas, and this once made him worry about how to repay Ye Gucheng's kindness.So knowing his helplessness and pursuit under his detached appearance, Zhuo Donglai decided to help him without any hesitation. This kind of thing should not be done by Ye Gucheng. Let's take it over. At that time, he didn't even realize how similar this idea was to Sima Chaoqun. Perhaps the difference between the two was so great that Zhuo Donglai didn't think of it subconsciously.

"Donglai!" Ye Gucheng yelled, his voice was so cold at this time, Zhuo Donglai didn't even notice his changed address, "I didn't underestimate you at all because of this, on the contrary, I admire you even more... ..from the time we met, you've projected an image that's almost perfect, so perfect it's even enviable."

"Perfect?" Zhuo Donglai sneered, "Enviable? I don't know if City Lord Ye poked open Zhuo Donglai's shiny coat and saw his damaged inside, was he disappointed, or pleased?"

"No one is perfect, like you, like me. Donglai, I didn't see your damaged inside, what I saw was the real and admirable Ziqi Donglai, and it is also the Ziqi I want to meet with Come east."

"Fate is not fair," Ye Gucheng said. "He may be more cruel to you, but you have never given up. Donglai, you can have today, and the Escort can have today. I respect you."

At this time, Ye Gucheng looked at him with gentle eyes. Ye Gucheng was a sword, and a sword could have a gentle expression. Zhuo Donglai was a little unnatural, that is, this unnaturalness suppressed him. The bitter sarcasm of export.

It's not that no one has respected Zhuo Donglai. Although he is not a good person, he can even be said to be a bad person, but his strategy, his calculations, and his terrifying courage have won him fear and respect, but Ye Gucheng is the number one. A person who respects him because of his hard work and unyielding, everyone takes it for granted that he can have today, he is Zhuo Donglai, so he can have today's status, this logic is not reasonable at all, but it makes everyone think However, over time even he himself felt so.

The room fell into silence again. After a while, Zhuo Donglai closed his eyes and turned his back, saying with a little self-deprecation:

"It's up to you." Anyway, he didn't agree, what Ye Gucheng thinks is his business, but his attitude is loose and Ye Gucheng can see it.

Ye Gucheng couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth, but unfortunately the person who turned his back didn't see it, and of course he probably wouldn't have a good face if he saw it.

"Donglai." Ye Gucheng yelled again, Zhuo Donglai couldn't help turning his head to look at him, when are you allowed to call him so affectionate.Ye Gucheng pretended not to see this glance at all, and continued:

"What do you think of the palace's actions?"

"I've been emperor for so many years. Even though I don't have much power, I was negligent." Zhuo Donglai's face was gloomy. He was careful at every step, but he stumbled on such a guy, and his heart was inevitably a little depressed.With a cold snort, he said:

"You still keep that old thing alive? Go, go and have a look, there must be something out of his mouth, so that I won't suffer this knife in vain." After finishing speaking, he tried his best to straighten up, fetched his clothes, and made himself as comfortable as possible. Same as usual.But he didn't want to be held down before he had time to make a big move, raised his eyebrows to look at him, and said:

"what happened again."

Seeing his unconscious appearance, Ye Gucheng frowned, and said coldly:

"Do you think you are made of iron? If you want to ask if you will go later, are your subordinates just a display? That thing is well carried in the dungeon. Your big escort is like a solid wall, and he can't escape."

Patting Ye Gucheng's hand away impatiently, he just felt that this person made a big fuss, didn't he bleed a little more, and it's not like he hasn't suffered more serious injuries before, so he should do what he should do.

"Ye Chang Meng Duo, I personally handle your affairs, this matter is very planned, there is no room for mistakes."

Ye Gucheng's eyes flickered but he was still unmoved, Zhuo Donglai sighed and said:

"I didn't hurt any bones or vitals, the doctor should have said it all."

"Let's go tomorrow." What he said was a firm and undiscussed one.

Zhuo Donglai narrowed his eyes: "Is the city lord too lenient?"

"I'm your friend." After thinking about it for a while, he added: "The only one in this world." So, I don't care about you, and who else will care about you.

It was only then that Zhuo Donglai realized what it means to push an inch. Ye Gucheng is definitely good at this, but seeing the sincere concern in his eyes, Zhuo Donglai's heart softened, and any rebuttals were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't spit it out.Still awkward:

"Mind your own business." But at least he didn't insist.

Ye Gucheng silently breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, if Zhuo Donglai continued to insist, he didn't know what to do, he was very worried that he would deny the relationship between the two again, and everything would return to the original point, which was a headache.But it seems that in a certain way, Zhuo Donglai is unexpectedly soft-hearted. As long as you are his friend, he seems to have grasped the way to deal with him, and a trace of joy flashed in his eyes.

"What's more, it's so late, everyone in the escort agency is asleep, why bother mobilizing people."

Zhuo Donglai glanced at him, and didn't bother to expose it, saying, "Don't you know that there are guards who watch the night outside and don't sleep?"

Ye Gucheng obviously came to his senses, coughed guiltyly, his eyes wandered, and he saw Zhuo Donglai's bloody right hand, which was injured when his mood fluctuated too much just now, he frowned slightly and said:

"I'll call someone in to treat the wound on your hand."

"Didn't the city lord say that everyone is asleep, so why bother to mobilize everyone." The tone was mocking.

Ye Gucheng said without changing his expression:

"There are exceptions. There are always servant girls who are awake. If the master is injured, they must not be able to sleep well."

Zhuo Donglai was almost defeated by this person's brazenness, and for a moment he missed the iceberg-like Baiyun City Lord from before, and said helplessly:

"Don't bother, there are wound medicines in the east pavilion."

Ye Gucheng pursed his lips and did not object.

When Zhuo Dong came to deliver the good medicine, seeing that Ye Gucheng still had no intention of leaving, he raised his eyebrows and teased:

"Is it possible that the city lord wants to stay in Ziqi Donglai? I remember that there is a guest room for the city lord."

Ye Gucheng didn't really care, but if he continued to stay and looked at Zhuo Donglai with a dangerous expression, he still felt that the future would be long.As for what it looks like, the city lord and Master Zhuo have no idea at the moment.

"Rest early."

Zhuo Donglai nodded.

It was an uneventful night, but somehow it passed.
