Don't be defensive girl, I'm blind

Chapter 18 Sleeping together (for further reading)

Xue Mu knew that it was Xu Ruyan who was crying.

He walked slowly towards the crying direction,
But Xu Ruyan choked with sobs: "You don't come here."

Xue Mu stopped in his tracks.

He pretended to ask, "What's wrong?"

"Do you know that my father is being sent to the execution ground today?" Xu Ruyan asked while crying.

"Ah."

"Then why didn't you tell me?"

"Your father told me not to talk."

"How did my father know that you met me? You lied."

"I once said that you begged me at the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, and he begged me not to disclose this information to you."

At this time Xu Ruyan finally stood up.

But maybe it was because I cried for too long.

The makeup is all gone.

His eyes were crying like cherries.

"What did my father say before he died? Did he mention me?" Just at this time, the moonlight shone on Xu Ruyan's face through the window.

Xue Mu replied: "He asked me to tell you that you can go back to your hometown and live a good life, and don't worry about what happened in Kyoto anymore."

"Okay." Xu Ruyan nodded.

"Of course. He also mentioned something, asking me if I agree to take you in."

As soon as Xue Mu's words came out, Xu Ruyan raised her head.

But before he finished speaking, Xu Ruyan said: "Mr. Xue, if I stay by your side, I will only drag you down. I will set off for my hometown tomorrow."

"Well, good." Seeing that Xu Ruyan had made up her mind, Xue Mu felt relieved.

Then he said: "Then you have a good rest."

After speaking, he was ready to leave.

As soon as I opened the door, I found that the sky began to thunder and lightning, and it began to rain heavily.

The rain even made Xue Mu feel that it was even more shocking than an idol drama.

Originally, Xue Mu wanted to return to the hut before the rain fell, but Xu Ruyan said, "Why don't you wait here for a while."

In the end, he gave up on the decision just now.

Closed the door again.

inside the house.

Xu Ruyan and Xue Mu sat face to face.

It seems that the picture of the two chatting relaxedly in the past has changed.

The atmosphere is a bit heavy.

Xue Mu knew that she was leaving tomorrow, so he said, "Why don't you tell a story about your father."

At this moment, there seemed to be a gleam of light in Xu Ruyan's eyes.

You know, in the eyes of many people, especially after her father's accident, those officials are disgusted and shy.

At this time, Xue Mu's words undoubtedly restored some warmth to her cold heart.

Xu Ruyan looked at the table in front of her and said in a daze, "My father. As far as I can remember, he was a good official, a very good official."

"He goes to court every morning and passes by Aunt Wang's place next to the gate of the mansion. He will buy a piece of sesame cake there. He never takes a sedan chair, and walks there every day."

"Because he cared about the common people, the first emperor attached great importance to it. Even the official household secretary, when he was in office, there were very few disaster victims outside the capital, or even invisible."

"However, since the death of the first emperor, the current Emperor Daqing ascended the throne and began to implement a series of arbitrary dictatorships. He does not go to court all day long, and the full power of political affairs is handed over to his ministers."

"It's just that the people are living in dire straits, and their lives are in dire straits. In a hurry, my father wrote several books one after another, and was finally demoted to be the head of the household department."

"Originally, I advised him to stop worrying about these things when he was past the age of forty, but he didn't listen and continued to speak out every day."

"It didn't take long before news came that he had accepted tens of thousands of taels of silver in bribes, and then he was imprisoned."

After hearing Xu Ruyan's words, Xue Mu couldn't help admiring Xu Jie's character.

It's a pity that he didn't take much care of him before he died.

But Xue Mu was not to blame for this, after all, at that time, his situation was still in a dangerous state.

If you don't even protect your own life, how can you care about others.

Xue Mu then asked: "In all these years, your father didn't have some close friends? Didn't your father help you when it was critical?"

"The one who sent my father to prison, but the current emperor, who dares." Xu Ruyan whispered, but a trace of anger could be heard from her tone.

"However. I have heard from my father before that if something happens to him, he can go to the Jingzhao Mansion Sky Prison to find a jailer of Xue Yuangen, but I have searched several times, but I can't find him. The only person with the same surname is Mr. Xue You, there should be a jailer named Xue Yuangen in your prison, right?"

Hearing what Xu Ruyan said, Xue Mu frowned: "Xue Yuangen is my father."

"your dad?"

"Well, he passed away a few days ago."

"sorry."

Xu Ruyan immediately apologized.

On the contrary, Xue Mu was puzzled: "Your father is the Minister of the Household Department, how could he know my father? You know, my father is just a prison guard, and they would never know each other no matter what."

"This little girl doesn't know."

Faced with all kinds of doubts, Xue Mu felt that it was necessary to keep Xu Ruyan down.

"Have you learned how to wash clothes?"

"Ok?"

Xu Ruyan froze for a moment, seeing that he changed the subject quickly, it was inevitable that he didn't react.

Xue Mu said calmly: "In the future, when you are at home, you can just wash my clothes for me, and you don't need to do other things."

"Young Master Xue, you mean to keep the little girl here?" Xu Ruyan didn't understand Xue Mu's intention.

"Since your father knows my father, then I can't just leave him alone. If you really encounter robbers or flower pickers on the way back to your hometown, I'm afraid the two elders will not let me go under the nine springs. My clothes don't If you wash it too carefully, just rub it casually."

Seeing her staring blankly, Xue Mu asked, "Isn't it right?"

"Okay." Xu Ruyan nodded, stood up and saluted him.

Xue Mu saw that the conversation was almost over, so he prepared to leave.

However, the rain didn't seem to want to stop.

Just when he was in trouble, Xu Ruyan whispered: "If Mr. Xue doesn't mind, we can share the same room. The little girl can sleep on the floor, and the master sleeps on the bed."

"Well, just do it."

With that said, Xue Mu walked to the bed, ready to hug the pillow.

Xu Ruyan didn't expect him to agree so soon.

The small mouth was slightly pursed, but she was still grateful to Xue Mu for taking him in.

Unexpectedly, Xue Mu directly covered the quilt by the bed and lay down on the ground.

Xu Ruyan was stunned.

I saw Xue Mu calmly said: "Such a good bed, if you don't sleep, I will sleep."

Xu Ruyan then secretly smiled.

Perhaps suppressing the sad mood all night, at this moment, there is some relief.

this night.

The rain keeps falling.

The atmosphere is not harmonious.

Xue Mu under the bed felt that the floor was slightly bent.

Xu Ruyan on the bed was blushing and breathing a little short of breath.

This is the first time she has slept in a room with a man.

But because she cried for too long, she fell into a dream after a while.

In the middle of the night, in a dream, she saw Xu Jie.

"Daddy, Daddy!"

She was crying and shouting.

Suddenly, she woke up.

Xue Mu sat beside her, looked at her and asked, "Did you have a dream?"

This time, Xu Ruyan hugged him directly and cried out loudly: "I don't have a father anymore."

Xue Mu didn't say words of comfort, but just patted her on the back.

Xu Ruyan didn't know how long she cried, but she fell asleep leaning on Xue Mu's shoulder.

When she woke up early the next morning, she found herself lying on Xue Mu's chest with her left hand on his abdomen.

Xu Ruyan woke up immediately.

She slowly looked down from Xue Mu's head, recalling what happened last night.

Until she sees where she shouldn't be.

Yes.
