he walks in the world

Chapter 108 You are born before me, I am old when I am born

Zhuangyuan Street tonight is comparable to the bustle of the Qinhuai River. Even with a little drizzle, there are still crowds of people coming and going, and those scholars can be seen everywhere, all of them in high spirits.

This is human nature. Even though many people know that they may not be able to get on the list, at least after the nine-day exam is over, they feel inexplicably relaxed. No matter how tired they are during the day, they will come out at night.

Du Ruo bought an umbrella on the way back, shared an umbrella with Xue Hongyi, and walked slowly. When they were approaching the inn, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind: "Brother Du!"

Du Ruo stopped, turned around, saw that it was Chu Tianfang and Yu Chen, and shouted: "Brother Yu, Brother Chu, it's you, what a coincidence!"

Yu Chen and Chu Tianfang walked over, Yu Chen cupped his hands and said, "I'm here to accompany my junior brother to relax. I happened to come here, and the back looks a bit like Brother Du, but I didn't expect it to be..."

While speaking, Yu Chen was stunned suddenly, his eyes filled with disbelief. At the same time, Chu Tianfang had the same expression, and both of them looked at Xue Hongyi in shock.

"Xue...Xue Butou..."

Yu Chen and Chu Tianfang looked at Xue Hongyi, who was wearing a skirt and carrying a basket, their expressions of shock left no trace.

In fact, Xue Hongyi's outfit today is completely different from normal people. Just now, the two of them never thought that it would be Xue Hongyi, and they couldn't associate Xue Hongyi with such a girl next door.

"Brother Du, Xue... girl, excuse me, goodbye!"

Chu Tianfang suddenly grabbed Yu Chen, cast an ambiguous look at Du Ruo, ignored Yu Chen's shock, and pulled away with all his strength, copying a pure Shu dialect: "Let's go, brother, you It makes my eyes water when I say that!"

"Ah, oh, I understand, I understand!"

Seeing Yu Chen and Chu Tianfang who disappeared into the crowd as if fleeing, Du Ruo was expressionless, and slowly lowered her head to look at Xue Hongyi.

The light from the lights shone on Xue Hongyi. Her fiery red skirt was rippling like the surface of water, and the breeze was mixed with drizzle, floating in the night.

Xue Hongyi was petite. Standing in front of Du Ruo, she could barely hit Qi Du Ruo on the shoulder. After changing the official uniform, wearing a skirt, and throwing away the two knives, she was really like an ordinary little girl. Standing in front of her, someone always needs someone to shield her from the wind and rain.

Du Ruo looked at Xue Hongyi calmly.

In fact, he has been in contact with Xue Hongyi many times, Xue Hongyi is really not beautiful, at least, the Monnie in Lianwu Lake he has seen before, or Ling Xiaoxiao, is more beautiful than Xue Hongyi, Not to mention Nangong Hupo and Su Ruyu, such beautiful women who are amazed by everyone in the world.

It can even be said that in a small place like Wutong Town, Du Ruo can find many girls who are prettier than Xue Hongyi.

But I don't know if it's because of the night, inexplicably, he suddenly felt that Xue Hongyi was very good-looking, very good-looking, very good-looking, even more beautiful than Su Ruyunangong Amber.

Xue Hongyi raised his head slightly, the two eyes intertwined, Xue Hongyi hurriedly took a step back, grasped the basket tightly with both hands, and said: "I...I... will send you here, you...you... Go back, I'm going back too!"

After saying that, Xue Hongyi hurriedly turned around, lifted her skirt lightly and ran away.

"Red!"

Du Ruo suddenly shouted loudly.

Xue Hongyi stopped, turned around, and looked at Du Ruo.

Du Ruo strode over, lowered his head, handed the umbrella to Xue Hongyi, and said softly, "I'll be there soon, take the umbrella so you don't get wet."

Smiling slightly, Du Ruo turned and left.

"Duruo!"

Xue Hongyi suddenly stopped shouting again.

Du Ruo turned around and looked at Xue Hongyi.

"what happened?"

Xue Hongyi came over, raised his head, smiled generously, and said softly, "Du Ruo, I will be in Jinling during this time, if you encounter anything, come to me."

Du Ruo nodded, and said: "I see." Looking at Xue Hongyi who was hesitating to speak, Du Ruo asked again: "You...do you have anything else to do?"

Xue Hongyi pursed her lips, hesitated for a while, and said, "Well, besides, I... I... I think we... are very destined, um, quite... fateful..."

Du Ruo's whole body tensed up suddenly, his mind was a little chaotic, full of emotions, but he deliberately lowered it to a flat level: "Then...then what?"

Xue Hongyi's hand holding the umbrella handle could not help but tighten a little, and said: "I think, you... will..."

Du Ruo widened his glasses and held his breath.

Xue Hongyi bit her lip slightly, and said: "You...be my younger brother from now on, let's become sworn brothers!" When Xue Hongyi said this, he relaxed a little, and continued: "If you don't Disgusting words!"

Du Ruo: "..."

"This...isn't appropriate!"

"There is nothing inappropriate," Xue Hongyi said: "Although you are only 17 years old, and I am about the same age as you, it is normal. If my younger brother does not die, he will be the same age as you. In the future, in Suzhou, whoever bullies me You, you just say you are my younger brother, how about I beat him up for you?"

The drizzle was drizzled, the breeze blew up, and fell on the face, it was a little cold, and the hair was slightly covered with a thin layer of water. Du Ruo let out a long breath, then took a step back, waved his sleeves, Putting my hands together, I cupped my hands and said: "No, I think it's fine now. I was lucky to meet you in Jinling and get to know each other. However, there is no need to be sworn brothers. I will treat you as my older sister and you as my younger brother." , is the same."

"Du Ruo..." Xue Hongyi gritted her teeth, hesitated for a moment, and said, "That's fine, you should pay attention to rest, and when the list is released in a few days, I'll congratulate you, don't let me down!"

"Okay, if I win the exam, I will treat you to dinner."

"Then it's settled."

"It's a word."

"Well, then I... let's go!"

"Okay, slow down, the road is slippery..."

"I know, you should go back quickly, your subordinates will have to wait."

"Well, okay, then I'm leaving!"

"Well, hurry up, it's raining!"

"Okay, then you should go back quickly, it's getting late!"

"Okay, I'm leaving now!"

"..."

…………

After walking a long distance, the rain gradually became heavier. Xue Hongyi was holding an umbrella and carrying a basket in her hand. There was a slight accumulation of water on the street. She walked step by step, with her head down, and the flow of people Moved, like a streamer phantom, everything is so far away.

Du Ruo stood at the door, watching the drops of water falling from the eaves, standing with his hands behind his back, watching the people coming and going on the street, looking at the various shops on the brightly lit street, the buzzing voices seemed like a world away, Can not be expected.

Until, a shout came from the inn: "My lord, come and save us!"

　It is estimated that it will be on the shelves next week. At that time, I hope everyone can support it! !
