deadly mantra

Chapter 5 Never see your husband outside

Shui Qingchen heard her sigh of regret and asked:
"Difficult?"

Ji Fanyin's originally lowered face suddenly lifted up, like a ferocious beast cub with exploding hair, and shouted:
"Hey, hey! Looking down on me is the same as humiliating me! Who said I was stumped!"

Facing his bewildered handsome face, Ji Fanyin's face felt a little hot for no reason. She awkwardly moved her eyes away from his face and muttered:

"I can do it. It's just a pity that my master died early. In those years, I was young and ignorant. I only cared about playing around, and... I didn't learn any real skills. Otherwise, I would definitely be able to help Chenchen."

As she spoke, her smart eyes swayed several times.

She, who had always lied without drafting, actually felt guilty.

Her little hand reluctantly rubbed the blue veins on her wrist.

What she said was not entirely false.

A few years ago, she really only cared about having fun.

As for the rest…

Well.

Well, don't worry about those details.

Ji Fanyin bit her lip guiltily.

no way.

The kindness she kicked in the heart was not enough to convince herself to bleed him and cure his illness.

Shui Qingchen could not help but feel a trace of disappointment on his brows, but he still said with a smile:

"Actually, this is good. We don't have to face people and things we don't want to see anymore. Let's go home."

Ji Fanyin's eyes lit up when he heard the topic was changed, and he said happily:
"Yes, yes! Go home, go home, I get lost easily when it gets dark."

Hearing the sound, the sadness on Shui Qingchen's face completely dissipated, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and he smiled warmly:

"It's really easy to get lost when it's dark, but now, it's still early, so Mrs. Lao is taking me home."

Ji Fanyin froze when he stood up, and turned his head to look at Shui Qingchen with a look of astonishment on his face.

His warm smile seemed to urge her to take him home quickly.

Ji Fanyin suddenly cried and bit her lip.

woohoo.

She also wants to take him home.

However, she is not really Qing'er.

How do you know where home is?
Ji Fanyin raised her jade hands and pressed her temples, intending to use the secret technique!

A weak voice floated out from her pink lips:
"Oops~head..."

So dizzy.

Shui Qingchen's gentle voice of concern, neither light nor heavy, sounded just right, blocking the next three words in her mind:
"By the way, I have grown up in a wealthy and privileged environment, and my body is delicate. I am afraid that I will not be able to get used to the hot weather outside for a while. If I feel stuffy, dizzy, or uncomfortable somewhere, please You must tell me as soon as possible. Never see your husband outside."

……

……

Ji Fanyin blinked, then blinked again, frowning unhappily, and glaring at the person in front of him with bulging cheeks.

She didn't want to be classified as "weak" by him.

That would be too disgraceful to her!

Her silence made Shui Qingchen smile even more tenderly:
"By the way, what did the lady want to say just now?"

"Uh..." He choked on his words.

"Madam, please speak. I'm listening." The smile on her lips widened.

"Uh……"

Ji Fanyin touched the bridge of her nose awkwardly.

The excuse of pretending to be unconscious was completely nipped in the cradle.

She held her face and sighed:
"Well, what I just wanted to say."

"Hmm?" Shui Qingchen stared sideways and said gracefully:

He was listening attentively.

Ji Fanyin's lips twitched and she avoided his gaze with a guilty conscience: "I just wanted to say, I'm afraid it won't work. I can't take you home."

"Oh? Why?" He smiled softly, as if encouraging her to continue.

"Chenchen, you can't see with your eyes, so it's not clear. When we were chatting just now, the sun had already set. Now, it's so dark all around that I can't see anything."

After a pause, Ji Fanyin said in a consultative tone for the first time:
"In this way, the next time you come out, Chenchen, you must remember to bring me a lantern for lighting, and I will take you home."

Shui Qingchen's dark eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't answer immediately.

He is blind, but not blind.

You can still clearly feel the heat of the sun's afterglow on your face, but the sun has already set.

Is it possible that she really plans to go home with him?
After thinking for a moment, Shui Qingchen followed her words:

"Then next time, please leave it to my wife."

"Good talk, good talk."

After luckily escaping, Ji Fanyin agreed very readily. She quickly got up from the ground, patting the grass clippings off her butt while observing Shui Qingchen.

Seeing this, he put his hand on the ground, tentatively at first, slowly touching the green grass beside his legs, and then gradually expanded the area, looking for something.

"Chenchen, what are you doing?"

"My crutch, do you see it?"

"No, you came out with a cane? It's okay, I'll look for it with you."

Ji Fanyin bent down and searched for a while in the grass. Sure enough, he saw a crutch lying quietly five or six steps away. It must have been blown by the wind.

She trotted over, bent down, and was about to pick it up.

The moment his fingertips touched the crutch, his movements suddenly stagnated.

There was a trace of hesitation in Ji Fanyin's eyes.

He turned his head and stared at Shui Qingchen's hand, which was searching for the grass.

Thinking of the warm touch when these hands fell on the top of my head just now.

The greed in Ji Fanyin's heart was revealed bit by bit in her eyes.

She grabbed the crutches, stood up, raised her arms, used all her strength, and threw!

"pat-"

The crutch flew ten meters away.

He will definitely not be found~
He covered his mouth and chuckled.

Ji Fanyin happily ran back to Shui Qingchen, whose back was stiff:

"Chenchen, I can't find your crutch no matter how hard I look for it. I'm afraid I lost it."

"Lost...?"

Shui Qingchen's sword eyes swayed slightly, and he raised his head seemingly unintentionally. His gaze fell squarely on the grass where the cane fell.

Knowing that his eyes could not see, Ji Fanyin still blocked his sight nervously and said with a smile:
"Yes, it is."

Shui Qingchen slowly lowered his dull eyes and murmured in embarrassment:
"But how can I go back without crutches?"

Ji Fanyin's eyes lit up with excitement:

"Although I didn't find your crutch, I have something better to use. Do you want to try it?"

"Oh? What is it?" Shui Qingchen tilted his head and "looked" at her.

Ji Fanyin deliberately softened her coaxing voice, revealing the excitement that could not be hidden:
"Chenchen, stretch out your hand and I will tell you."

Shui Qingchen hesitantly stretched out his left hand.

What does she want to play again?
Just as he was thinking about it, a soft and tender touch suddenly slipped into his palm.

"This is..." Shui Qingchen was stunned.

This feeling...

Shouldn't it? !

Shui Qingchen lowered his head and opened his eyes wide, wanting to find out.

However, no matter how hard he tried to open his eyes, it was still pitch black and he couldn't see anything.
