Chapter 117

The clothes on his body were already extremely loose, but because of this fall, the belt had already been taken off, and the outer robe was also loose.The hair tied on the top of the head was also scattered with great force, and three thousand black hairs were laid down, winding and flying in the wind.

Ling Xiaoruo tightly grasped the pine tree branch with both hands, bent his steps upwards, trying to step on the tree trunk and climb up.

Since the loose outer robe blocked her strength, Ling Xiaoruo took the opportunity to take off the outer robe.

She frowned and climbed up vigorously.However, her tiny arms were still no match for the downward force. After struggling for a while, her hands were completely exhausted, and a single negligence caused her to fall downwards.

Just when she thought she was about to fall off the cliff, a white shadow appeared beside her like lightning.

"Ruo Er!"

A warm voice sounded beside her ears, and in the next moment, she had fallen into a warm embrace.

Ling Xiaoruo raised his eyes to look at the flying man, his face was still wearing a white jade mask, under the sunlight, there was a soft light.

"Junli, why are you here?" How could he appear here?

Jun Li hugged Ling Xiaoruo's slender waist, and after a few vertical leaps, he went up the cliff.There was a glossy steed on the edge of the cliff, Jun Li led Ling Xiao Ruofei straight up on the horse's back, placed her in front of him, then pulled the rein, put his feet on the horse's belly, and galloped away with Ling Xiao Ruofei.

After getting on the horse, Jun Li slowly whispered in her ear: "Last night, grandma couldn't find you everywhere, so she became anxious, so she sent someone to look for me, and asked me to find her secretly. When grandma was a child, grandma thought you were with me, but I said she didn't see you, and she coughed up blood in a panic. Because of the worsening of her condition, people from Prince Jing's residence also came, and grandma was worried that Prince Jing would make trouble for you , let me protect you, so I waited around the outskirts of the capital, not really wanting me to wait for you."

On the horse's back, Ling Xiaoruo's whole body was pressed against Junli's body. When he spoke, the heaving feeling of his chest pierced through the thin fabric and hit her heart.

How can she let Junli protect her like this?
"Junli, thank you!" Ling Xiaoruo turned her eyes, glanced at the white clothes from the corner of her eye, and said these words with drooping eyelashes.

When Jun Li heard the words, a faint smile appeared on his lips, and he replied: "It's okay, I just hope I can help you a little."

She was not around when grandma passed away, so she must have been in a very uncomfortable mood, right?How he wished to share a little sorrow for her, so that her picturesque willow eyebrows would not be stained with a little sadness.He just wanted to see her smile like a spring flower, just like the one under the peach blossom tree back then.

The two of them rode together and arrived at Ling's mansion very quickly. After getting off the horse, Jun Li saw that Ling Xiao Ruo was only wearing an inner garment, so he took off his outer robe and wrapped it around her body.

After Ling Xiaoruo tightened his clothes, he quickly walked towards grandma's courtyard.

After entering the gate of the courtyard, I heard crying in the house, there were men and women, old and young.

A gust of wind blew past the courtyard wall, and in this scorching hot season, Ling Xiaoruo actually felt a little shivering.She hugged her clothes tightly and walked towards the house step by step.

After stepping through the door, the first thing Ling Xiaoruo saw was his father, Ling Qiuhe. He was originally a majestic figure, but at the moment he looked a bit desolate and depressed. His waist was slightly bowed, and the white hair on his temples The hair seems to have grown a lot, and the face stained with years of wind and frost is actually tired.When he saw Ling Xiaoruo who was slowly approaching, he only stared at her, but miraculously he didn't step forward to slap her.

"Father..." Ling Xiaoruo raised his eyebrows and called out in a low voice.

Ling Qiuhe threw his head and gave her a wink, telling her to go into the back room.

After Ling Xiaoruo agreed, he walked inward step by step with heavy steps.When she got to the inner room, she saw her mother kneeling on the ground crying so heartbroken, she kept yelling: "Mother..."

The maids, mothers-in-law and servants also knelt on the ground, covering their handkerchiefs and weeping loudly, which made people feel sad from the heart.

"Old lady...you are alive..."

Across the mourning sound from the whole room, Ling Xiaoruo saw the man in white clothes in the crowd, he was standing quietly by the bed, his white clothes were spotless, at this moment, his eyebrows were slightly frowned, his expression was gloomy.The lowered head seemed to slowly lift up when it felt Ling Xiaoruo's gaze.

The eyes met in the air, and it seemed that there were some sparks in the collision.

Yun Jingxuan stared at Ling Xiaoruo who came late, and saw that she was wearing a large white robe, which obviously belonged to a man. Her hair was completely laid out, and some of her hair hung down In front, some scattered behind, the beautiful black hair is like the best brocade in the world, soft and smooth, although she is not wearing rouge and gouache at this moment, it is as natural as a hibiscus, at this moment she is like a pure white flower The lotus flower is so beautiful and natural, without any impurities.

It's just that there is obvious gauntness on that beautiful face.

Grandma died of illness, but she was still happy to meet her lover. Is her heart so indifferent?

Looking at the robe she was wearing, he had the urge to tear it off.After seeing Ziqing this time, he thought that he would not have such a feeling when he saw Ling Xiaoruo, not only that, but the sour feeling was even worse than before?

Because of the displeasure in his heart, Yun Jingxuan stared at her for a while, then walked towards the layman.

Ling Xiaoruo also withdrew his gaze and went towards grandma's bedside.

The two passed by in the room, and when they intersected, the hair in front of the temples was brought up, and there were strands of agarwood in the hair, which was completely different from the strong fragrance of powder in the past.

The natural fragrance of his daughter's home made Yun Jingxuan frowned slightly, and his phoenix eyes were filled with contemplation, but the imminent masculine aura made him stop thinking for a moment.He looked back at the white robe on Ling Xiaoruo's body, sighed inwardly, and left the room.

Ling Xiaoruo slowly went to the bedside, when she saw the kind old man sleeping on the bed with his eyes closed, the tears in his eyes finally couldn't help but slipped down his eyes.

"Grandma..." When mourning, the blurted words trembled.

After hearing Ling Xiaoruo's voice, Mrs. Ling, who was kneeling on the ground, raised her tear-filled face and asked Ling Xiaoruo: "Ruoer, why did you come back? Why did you come back? Ruoer..."

Ling Xiaoruo closed her eyes heavily, her feet softened, and she knelt down on the ground, her knees hit the hard stone brick floor, but she didn't feel any pain.

Because at this moment, her heart hurts even more, and a deep sense of guilt covers her whole body.

"Ruo'er..." Seeing her daughter kneeling on the ground crying silently, Madam Ling hugged Ling Xiaoruo's slender back, and began to cry on her shoulder: "It would be great if you came back sooner..."
