Chapter 30 Assassination
Xiao Xuan never expected that Lin Zhiyu would be waiting for him in the cold wind.

Madam Xie's words of warning this morning were probably because of her behavior in recent days.

Somewhere in my heart was slightly touched.

In this whole family, she was probably the only one who really wanted to keep him.

Looking at Lin Zhiyu's earlobes that were red from the cold, Xiao Xuan said in a deep voice: "Miss Lin, you don't have to do this for me. I am injured, but I am not incapable of restraining myself and cannot take care of myself."

"It was an accident to save you. I had made arrangements before I went to Beijing. After such a long delay, it's time to leave. You don't have to feel that my leaving is a debt to me."

"If it were someone else that day, I would be able to help you, but I wouldn't just sit back and watch. I didn't save you for any other reason."

Xiao Xuan's cruel words were an attempt to draw a clear line with her.

Lin Zhiyu nodded with tears in her eyes, "I understand what you mean. I know what kind of person you are. Don't worry, I won't do stupid things again. I'll go back later."

I said goodbye reluctantly, with tears in my eyes, a gesture of reluctance.

Xiao Xuan nodded and said goodbye, "Yes."

Then they walked towards the official road, and it seemed that the two of them were about to part ways, never to meet again.

But he didn't go far when he heard urgent footsteps behind him.

Xiao Xuan turned around and looked back.

Lin Zhiyu ran over panting, her eyes red, "Xiao Xuan, am I so useless?"

A question, but an affirmative tone.

The girl's eyes were full of sadness, and tears silently ran down her cheeks, gathering into crystal teardrops on her delicate chin, and falling one by one.

Xiao Xuan looked into her eyes, and sadness suddenly filled his heart. It wasn't so heavy that he couldn't breathe, but it couldn't be ignored.

This feeling came for no reason and made Xiao Xuan lose his mind. He stared at the girl in front of him with a calm and profound gaze.

Lin Zhiyu's breath was suffocated. He was staring at her and her heart was tingling. Could it be that she had overacted?
She hurriedly added: "I know I am useless. Ever since I was a child, I have never accomplished anything serious. I am not good at literature and martial arts. I am not smart. I am timid and have no independent opinions."

"While you were recovering from your injuries, I was supposed to visit you every day. I prepared medicine and tonics for your injuries, stewed soups and medicated meals, and also prepared clothes. But I didn't dare to send them to you. I didn't If you dare not listen to them, I'm afraid that if I disobey, they will ignore me and blame you."

"If I don't follow the rules, they will scold me, but I don't dare to harm you. I know you are a good person with a kind heart. I am afraid that they will misunderstand you and misunderstand your ulterior motives."

"You probably don't know that I am not a famous young lady. My reputation in the capital is not good. They don't want to associate with me. Only the second sister and you are the best to me besides the second sister. people."

"But I can't even do something for you, so don't blame me."

Xiao Xuan looked at her and said nothing for a long time. Lin Zhiyu sobbed and forced a smile, "Okay, I've finished what I have to say. I won't delay your future affairs."

She turned around sadly, and the maid in the distance secretly wiped her tears.

Xiao Xuan called Lin Zhiyu to stop. Before she finished speaking, she immediately turned around. The hope in her eyes shocked Xiao Xuan's heart, but then the feeling disappeared inexplicably.

He looked at her and said in a low voice, "It's not that you are useless, it's that you don't need to work hard on me. You and I just met by chance. Now that our fate is over, we naturally have to go our separate ways."

When she heard that her fate was over, Lin Zhiyu cried even more. She sobbed: "I understand, I understand everything, but can... when you settle down, can you please write me a letter?" "I know. My request is a bit too much, I shouldn't delay and trouble you anymore, I have no other intention, I just want to make sure that you have settled down well, so that I can rest assured, there is no need for a long speech, just a few words."

The girl's posture was extremely humble. Xiao Xuan paused and then said: "Okay."

Lin Zhiyu laughed through her tears and wiped away her tears carelessly, "I know you don't need money or my help, but you haven't recovered yet and it's windy today, so let me do one last thing for you. "

Xiao Xuan looked at the carriage behind Lin Zhiyu. It was large and luxurious. As expected, there should be a heater inside.

Having said that, it would be a bit unkind to refuse again.

"So, there's Miss Laurin."

Lin Zhiyu nodded, "Just tell the driver where you want to go. There are fresh fruits and snacks I have prepared, as well as drinks and dry food. You can eat whatever you want."

"Remember to write to me. If you have any difficulties, just tell me. No, you must tell me! I will risk my life to help you!"

Xiao Xuan responded one by one.

Maybe he felt relaxed, but when the cold wind blew, Lin Zhiyu sneezed hard.

Xiao Xuan said: "Miss Lin, please come back. Please take care of yourself in the cold weather."

Lin Zhiyu sniffed and said, "Take care of yourself too."

The luxurious carriage gradually drove away on the official road. Lin Zhiyu watched from a distance, watching the whole journey with no intention of leaving.

Lan Sheng was worried about Lin Zhiyu's health and persuaded him: "Miss, don't be too sad. Although Mr. Xiao has left, doesn't he still want to participate in this year's Spring Festival?"

"Young Master Xiao can single-handedly rescue you from the bandit den. He must have great skills. Looking at Young Master Xiao's behavior and conversation, he is not like a creature in the pond. I think he will definitely achieve impressive results this year, and maybe even win a prize." Wu champion!"

"You don't have to worry about his future. He won't have a hard time for a long time."

Lan Sheng admired Xiao Xuan from the bottom of his heart for his high moral character and integrity, and he understood Lin Zhiyu's concerns very well.

Lin Zhiyu looked into the distance without saying a word. Xiao Xuan was more than just the top scholar in martial arts.

In his previous life, he won the first prize in both civil and military subjects in one fell swoop. He was knowledgeable and knowledgeable. Whether it was martial arts formations or rules and regulations, he was familiar with them all. Once he became an official, he reached a height that other students could not reach.

But he refused the reward and joined the Ministry of War. He was willing to start from a small official as big as a sesame seed and a mung bean, and gradually built a career and earned the favor and trust of his father and brother.

Seeing that Lin Zhiyu was silent, Lan Sheng thought for a while and said hesitantly: "Miss, although it is inappropriate to say something, you and Mr. Xiao will definitely have a chance to meet each other in the future. It is only a matter of time. The general is the leader of the court. Dear minister, if Mr. Xiao is lucky enough to be an official in the same court as the general and the prince in the future, he will inevitably be involved, and there will always be an opportunity to repay his kindness."

Lin Zhiyu turned around and smiled at Lan Sheng, "I'm fine. As he said just now, we are just destined people who met by chance. The fate is over when it is over. Don't say these words again in the future."

Meet?

No, if the plan goes well, they will never see each other again.

Lin Zhiyu lowered his eyes, and in his weak eyes, there were traces of Gu Zhan's killing intent.

Those reckless gangsters, please don’t disappoint her.
