auspicious time has come

Chapter 123 He Remembers

The dead leaves were ignited, making a soft "cracking" sound, and a cluster of flames jumped up.

Xiao Mu stared blankly at the overly relaxed side face of the girl who was lightly picking up the fire with a branch and earnestly lighting the fire, and was in a daze for a while.

Heng Yu waited quietly for a moment, but did not wait for his answer.

"Maybe I got it wrong." Her voice was still casual, her eyes were focused on the fire in front of her, she never went to see Xiao Mu, she just said in a chatty tone: "After that, I always wanted to see you again When he... met him at that time, he was too flustered, young and ignorant, so he couldn't thank him properly."

After a while, Xiao Mu finally spoke.

"Mr. Qinghan had an accident eight years ago. Just looking at what happened to you later, I think this person has never helped you. It is unnecessary to thank you—"

His voice was not high, and he was also looking at the growing fire, his half-closed eyes made it hard to see the emotion inside.

Hengyu fiddled with the fire for a moment, and said: "Thank you, he helped me a lot... I ran away in the heavy rain that night, like a frightened bird, he will still take shelter It was allotted to me, and gave me a robe, lent me my shoulder to sleep in, healed my wounds, and gave me hot naan to eat."

She counted carefully: "Before I left, I was given money, and taught me how to hide my skin color and how to escape..."

After Xiao Mu heard this, a complex smile appeared in his eyes: "You remember it very carefully—but it's all trivial things, and there seems to be nothing worth thanking for."

"You can say that I recognized the wrong person, but you can't deny my feelings for me..." Heng Yu still didn't look at him: "The kindness I feel is truly precious."

Especially the kindness that appeared at such a time——

At that time, she suffered a sudden disaster, was confused and frightened, and felt that her cognition of this world had been subverted, and she even began to question everything.

The kindness given to her by the young man I met in the night temple was not just a coat and a piece of naan bread——

What exactly did that encounter give her, she only gradually realized the unusual meaning and power in her frequent recollections in the future.

Especially after she guessed the other party's identity and learned about the other party's experience, she later realized that the kindness that the other party showed at that time was more valuable than ordinary people.

What is memorable is always meaningful.

"Based on your disposition, you probably can't do something that you only accept and don't give. He has shown kindness, and you must have returned kindness—" Xiao Mu said, "You should owe nothing to each other."

"Who said you have to be in debt before you want to thank him?" Heng Yu put down the branch and put his hands on the fire to roast: "Later, I learned something, I thought I would never see him again...... It doesn't matter, Ben doesn't necessarily have to see each other again. Maybe he doesn't remember these trivial things long ago, and he doesn't need to remember at all."

She chooses to "remember", of course she wants to remember, but most importantly, she can remember in a fair way.

But he's different—

He has a shocking secret that needs to be hidden, and if he chooses to "remember", he needs to reveal the secret.

Of course he has the right to choose to keep the secret to the end, and she has no intention of forcing it. She tried to speak out, but she didn't puncture it with certainty, and just left a layer of window paper.

Heng Yu looked at the ten fingers that were almost transparent by the firelight, and began to think about what to say to change the topic.

"He remembers."

Hearing this, Hengyu paused when he flipped his palm.

That voice, even though it was weak, was especially sweet and said: "I didn't think carefully at that time, and I'm sorry for what happened to you later."

Hengyu's ten fingers slowly gathered together, and finally turned to look at him.

"No." She showed a slight smile: "It's just that we met by chance. You have helped me a lot. It would be unreasonable to depend on you for everything in the future."

She looked at him, her smile gradually frank and unreserved: "And it's all over, aren't you and I here right now?"

Xiao Mu pondered for a moment, and said honestly: "It's not much better at the moment."

Heng Yu looked at his wounded and weak appearance, and then looked down at his tattered and dirty dress and frostbitten fingers——

He couldn't help but nodded in agreement: "It's true, compared to the embarrassment of the past, it's worse than worse."

After speaking, the two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

Hengyu's smile penetrated to the bottom of her eyes, and the joy of meeting the old man was also revealed in every subtle movement, she turned sideways to face Xiao Mu, and asked: "Master Hou recognized me a long time ago, right? "

Sensing her joy, Xiao Mu also had a smile in his eyes.

Just now he looked very relaxed, and he didn't even look at him, as if he didn't care whether he admitted it or not——

At this time, he was as happy as a rabbit that just wanted to jump up.

"When we first met Yingzhou, I made some guesses." He said frankly, "You were drunk that day, so I really confirmed it."

drunk?

Heng Yu was taken aback when he heard that: "How did you confirm it?"

"I saw the old traces on you—"

"?" Heng Yu's pupils tightened slightly, and she subconsciously hugged her arms tightly in front of her.

Her birthmark...the location is very hidden!
Could it be that he—

"?" Xiao Mu looked at her inexplicable movements, and his eyes fell on her ankle: "You sprained your ankle when you were drunk that night, and saw it when you were setting your bones."

Heng Yu followed his line of sight to look down, and after reacting, she relaxed.

It turned out to be the scar on her foot...

Facing Xiao Mu's vaguely suspicious eyes, she suddenly said: "Ah, yes... Lord Hou set my bones that night, I actually forgot."

Regarding this, Xiao Mu was very magnanimous: "You were so drunk that night, how can you expect a drunk to remember anything?"

Just speaking of this, Yin Hai felt a little guilty when he thought of the extremely easy-to-drunk wine that Yin Hai had prepared for, so he asked, "What about you? When did you recognize me——"

"I didn't recognize it. Didn't it just come out?" Heng Yu said frankly.

Xiao Mu: "?"

"Hou Ye's description has changed a lot, and no amount of guesswork can really confirm it, so we can only make a lie." Seeing the other party's expression gradually cracking, Heng Yu hurriedly said: "But it is still very close to guessing." ——If not, how could you be so accurate?"

"..." Xiao Mu felt that he never wanted to hear the word "诓" again in this life.

Aware of his emotions, in order to lessen the damage, Heng Yu put away all the expression of the liar's success, and said in a serious manner: "This time I met Hou Ye in Yingzhou for the first time, and I felt deja vu. Hou Ye always feels at ease when dealing with past events, and I firmly believe that intuition will not go wrong.

Later, when I realized that Lord Marquis and Auntie had a secret relationship with His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, combined with many details and clues, these conjectures all pointed to the same answer—"

Before that, she was roughly able to confirm that the young man she met in the ruined temple was the son of Shu Guogong, Shi Jingzhi.

But Shi Jingzhi was already "dead", so——

There is no need for her to clarify the rest of the words, Xiao Mu has already said slowly: "Not far from Youzhou, I met the person arranged by His Royal Highness the Princess, that person is my father's old department, with his help , I escaped the court’s pursuit by feigning death.”

Before that, he never thought that one day, he would tell this secret to others.

Heng Yu suddenly said: "It turns out that His Highness knew about it as early as that year..."

"Yes, without His Highness's help, I'm afraid I won't be able to save my life."

"Then... where's Aunt Xiao?" Heng Yu chose the most superficial question to ask, because the inside story is too deep, and it may not be appropriate to delve into it at this time.

　Ah it's late again!Stay with Zai Zai all day today, please bear with me.

　　Thank you Qinghan for rewarding another lord today!It’s been so long, I really deserve it, thank you for your love, I’m so grateful┭┮﹏┭┮
