Maybe it's more about powerlessness.

Even in the deep night when it seems there won’t be any more stories, in the silent time and space where you can’t see the night outside the window.

She would gently rub her hair on the back of her head and whisper.

"If you like it, just keep it this way."

Xu Qingyan did not lose his mind, nor did he become insane.

He felt that his mental state was still normal.

"That's not true... Master, please stop saying such things and stop playing such a role."

"why?"

She seemed to be completely unaware of her own thoughts, or... just playing dumb.

"It's so weird, there's nothing weirder than this."

Xu Qingyan sighed.

The woman lowered her head slightly and said softly to the boy's forehead.

"There are things in this world that are more bizarre and more unacceptable than this. It's not strange."

"Just because there are worse things, it's natural for things to get worse."

Lin Yan's eyes were blazing.

Looking at the boy's hardened eyes.

"So...what do you want me to do? Let you leave me and let us become strangers?"

"A simple master-disciple relationship is fine."

"You obviously didn't refuse, and you obviously miss me, but you want to talk about a simple master-disciple relationship. Do we have to see each other every day, but pretend that we are strangers and torture ourselves? I don't want this, and even if you want this, I will never let it turn out like this."

Xu Qingyan felt that the other party was still insane.

He could only sigh and speak softly.

"Master, don't care about the so-called dream, and don't let it constrain you. Just pretend that it never happened and let it be as it is. Just let it be..."

"Then let's pretend that dream doesn't exist and start from now on."

and many more.

Is this what I meant?

"No, Master..."

But the woman hugged the boy into her arms again, and Xu Qingyan's face was immediately covered.

It's a ridiculous feeling, as if I have become a woman.

Depend on!

Is this the world where women are supreme?!

It's really embarrassing to be so petty, okay?

Then I heard her soft words in my ear.

"Don't talk too much, go to sleep. I'm really tired."

Xu Qingyan was stunned for a moment, and then felt the other person's body gradually softening in his arms, just like ice and snow melting.

As her breathing gradually became even, the breath flowed without any defense.

Xu Qingyan realized that she was really asleep.

And slept very deeply.

I'm not even afraid that if I want to kill her now, it will be very easy.

what is this?

Is it the old-fashioned way to show trust by turning your back to your partner?

But Xu Qingyan's body was unable to move, not because he was restrained by power, but because he seemed to be infected by this kind of sleepiness and laziness.

Not wanting to move is like a self-deceiving enjoyment.

Is that so? Maybe, as she said, she was too tired.

It is easy to waste the long river of life. Fame, wealth and power are ultimately things you cannot bring with you when you are born and cannot take with you when you die.

The only thing that never ends is love.

Only with feelings... no matter how well you plan, no matter what experience you have beforehand, you can never fully predict the direction of the relationship.

You have no control.

It is like the only element of freedom and variety outside of all rules.

It can be a thrilling accident or a pleasant surprise.

It can be a knife that pierces your bones, or it can be grass in the corner...

What exactly is going on here?

"Um "

The boy with indifferent eyes heard the voice.

Lin Yan turned over while sleeping, and she adjusted her posture to a more comfortable one.

It seemed as if he had placed his hands under her head.

Then, the slender waist and the perky buttocks arched into his arms.

This unconscious sleeping behavior is somewhat adorable.

Xu Qingyan wanted to laugh.

I made it look real before, but I couldn't help but seek a sense of security from myself when I went to sleep.

But... maybe this is true for everyone.

No matter how much we quarrel, no matter how stubborn we are, no matter how fiercely we fight.

When I am most tired and vulnerable, I still rely on that one person.

And of course... even the strongest people have a fragile side like a baby.

The boy felt the complete softness of the other's body and smelled the familiar fragrance.

There is not even a hint of hostility or confrontation.

The sound of her breathing was accompanied by the light night breeze outside, and Xu Qingyan rarely felt the arrival of sleepiness.

Maybe even fatigue is contagious?

There is no use thinking too much, so just stop thinking.

The boy closed his eyes and turned sideways, his breathing gradually becoming even.

The gentle and peaceful woman rested her head on his arm, hugged his arm and fell asleep.

No arguments, no quarrels.

Silent and silent.

When Xu Qingyan felt the morning light falling on his face, he opened his eyes.

When I saw the strange window and the couch below me, I immediately remembered the extremely bizarre experience of last night.

The mess seemed to have been cleaned up long ago.

There was no soft figure in my arms anymore, only the faint fragrance remained.

He sat up, but didn't see Lin Yan immediately.

He frowned, then stood up.

After walking around the screen in the middle of the hall, he saw the back of a woman combing her hair in front of a mirror.

She has put on a new white dress.

In my memory, Lin Yan always wore white dresses and rarely wore dresses of other colors.

Therefore, in my memory, she will always be like the proud plum blossom in the cold snow in winter, with her own unique traces and marks.

She bathed in the morning light that shone through the open window, with a radiant beauty that seemed unreal.

It seems like it will dissipate if touched.

Xu Qingyan's eyes stayed on her perfect back for a long time.

Until she seemed to feel his gaze, stopped and turned her head slightly.

That cold face was very familiar, without the smile like last night.

It was as if nothing happened yesterday and I just arrived.

"Come and help me comb my hair."

Xu Qingyan hesitated for a moment, then walked over.

Looking at the wooden comb she handed over, he reached out to take it.

In just the moment of receiving it, her delicate fingertips gently brushed across his thumb, and for a moment... it was a thrilling touch.

Xu Qingyan took the comb and ran it through the other person's smooth hair.

Compared to arranging bookshelves, it was indeed much smoother. He was just a little curious.

How did the other party act as if nothing had happened all of a sudden?

Her expression was very cold, without even a hint of blush.

But she insisted on letting herself comb her hair.

Could it be that this woman has two completely different personalities at night and during the day? One stirs up trouble, the other is calm and composed?

He didn't know that he could accept anything even a little bit weirder, and there was nothing weirder.

It's just that the sunlight reflected on her hair is a bit dazzling.

"I've combed it."

Xu Qingyan combed away the few remaining frizzy hairs.

I politely placed the comb on the table next to the other person's mirror.

The woman nodded and stood up gracefully.

He looked at me with a cold and familiar look.

"Song Xiyan will also know about what happened in the sect a few days ago in Jitian Palace. I think she wants to ask you questions. Don't worry, just answer truthfully. Come to me if you have anything."

Even the voice seemed cold and silent.

It was as if the Lin Yan of the past had finally returned.

But is he really back?

Xu Qingyan himself thought it was a wild idea.

What was she thinking that caused her to create such an extreme contrast? Did she think this was the best way to deal with herself?

I don't know, he was too lazy to think about it.

There will be more important things to do in the next few days.

He nodded respectfully.

"Got it. I'll take my leave now."

Lin Yan really didn't try to persuade him to stay, she just watched the boy turn around and leave.

Only then did she take a step forward and walk to the window sill, watching from afar how the young man in white left Xi Taoyuan.

She raised her eyes slightly and looked towards the bright sky.

"Even if it's Jitian Palace... they can't snatch you away."
