Love is like melting

Chapter 56 Night Garden, Mind 1
"If Mr. Huo is as well-informed about the intelligence department's news, I think you will have less trouble." About her going to Yun Yingluo Manor, Lian Mo strictly blocked the news, how did Huo Yuan know?
I haven't seen him for a few years, but Huo Yuan's power seems to be stronger than before. No wonder Lian Mo is afraid of him now and always suppresses him.

Her tone of voice has always been monotonous, unhurried, without much emotional twists and turns in it, but it fell into Huo Yuan's ears, no matter how she heard it, there was a sense of irony.

Huo Yuan's sword eyebrows were cold, and his voice tightened: "Ji Yerong, you are an excellent soldier and politician, as long as you don't get entangled with the Lian family. You should be a man with strategy and ambition. People with a national heart, but look at what you have done for so many years? You can’t see those who need your help in your eyes, you only risked your life for Your Excellency, what have you gained for so many years?”

Ji Yerong's expression was cold, and the indifferent Bo Guang greeted him, "A subject who can even betray her own monarch, who can guarantee that she will not betray the people?"

What Huo Yuan meant was that she had been short-sighted all these years and only did those things for Lian Mo, without thinking about those citizens who needed her.

Ji Yerong didn't deny what he said. She did everything for Lian Mo. As for the life and death of the people, she never cared, and didn't want to care; moreover, Huo Yuan also got two things wrong.

One is that she doesn't have the ambition and ambition to save the world, and she doesn't have a sense of mission to save the common people; two, no matter how beautiful and perfect the reason for betrayal is, betrayal is betrayal, and if she can betray once, she can betray the second time, even if she and Lian Mo are friends. Right and wrong have long been unclear, and she, Ji Yerong, would never commit a betrayal, let alone stand in Huo Yuan's position.

Huo Yuan raised his eyebrows, Ji Yerong's stupid loyalty was beyond his expectation, but it was also within reason.

Women are always blind for love, unable to tell right from wrong.

The two sisters seem to be different, but they actually have the same temperament: stubborn.

"Ji Yerong, I hope you can think carefully about whether it is for your own future or the future of the country. The Lian family is no longer what it used to be. There are constant internal strife, and everyone only cares about their own interests. Is the family really qualified to continue to dominate the destiny of the country, or should we enter a new era!"

Huo Yuan still persisted, trying to persuade her to stand on his side.

Ji Yerong does not deny that Huo Yuan's words are right. The Lian family, a century-old family, has already been necrotic from the root, especially since the internal conflicts of Lian Zhen's generation have intensified, and Yun Yingluo and Lian Mo are even more incompatible. Such a family Sooner or later, what will be brought to country M will be its demise.

In the new era, the new regime may be able to give the people a new start. Ji Yerong does not reject such a possibility, but the person who can bring M country into a new era and have a new light is definitely not Huo Yuan. Radicals who will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals.

"In my heart, the person who can lead country M to a new era is not you!" Ji Yerong flatly refused to join Huo Yuan's team without the slightest hesitation.

"It's not me, could it be Your Excellency?" Huo Yuan's lips curled into a sneer: "Don't forget, he is still restrained by Mrs. Yun!"

In this glamorous and envied rich and powerful person, in fact, everyone has an unknown dark side, either cruel, weak, or...

Ji Yerong was silent, his eyes passed through Huo Yuan's shoulders and fixed behind him.

Whether that person is Lian Mo, she is not sure, but what is certain is that that person is definitely not Huo Yuan.

Huo Yuan tilted his head, and the corner of his eyes glanced at Lian Mo who was walking over. He raised his brows slightly and said in a low voice: "One day you know that you are just a victim of the family struggle from the beginning to the end, and you will know that you once How stupid."

As soon as the words were finished, Lian Mo had strode over, walked to Ji Yerong's side naturally, embraced her shoulders, looked at Huo Yuan with his eyes, and smiled three-pointedly on his thin lips: "What a coincidence?"

Huo Yuan smiled and nodded: "It's a coincidence!" His words paused, his gaze froze for a second when he glanced at Ji Yerong, "I won't bother you anymore."

After Lian Mo nodded in agreement, he bowed and turned to leave.

Lian Mo's deep eyes withdrew after Huo Yuan got into the car, and looked down at A Yu in his arms, "What are you talking about?"

"Just chat." Ji Yerong brushed his hand off his shoulder, turned around and bent down to get into the car.

The smile on the corner of Lian Mo's mouth was still there, the light in his eyes lingered in the direction where Huo Yuan disappeared and in the car, gradually becoming thoughtful and probing.

It was already nine o'clock in the evening when we returned to Yeyuan. Ji Yerong went back to his room, while Lian Mo went to... the kitchen.

Ayu hardly ate anything all day, he was really worried and didn't want her to go to bed hungry.

Yu Sha stood aside, looking at Lian Mo's slender fingers holding a sharp knife, her nervous heart almost jumped into her voice, "Your Excellency, let me do it."

"No, just stand there and tell me what to do."

Lian Mo hadn't stepped into the kitchen for so many years, and this was the first time, he couldn't distinguish all the seasonings, and before the ingredients turned into delicious food, he knew very few of them.

The sudden decision to cook was not a whim, it was a desire to cook something with his own hands, even if it was simple, as long as it was delicious and A Yu could eat it.

Ask Yu Sha what is the easiest, and Yu Sha says plain noodles are simple.

Lian Mo frowned, he vaguely remembered that Ayu didn't like pasta.

It's not advisable to eat too much at night, and Ayu doesn't like food that is too oily or meaty, so he finally decided to make a simple sweet soup, which is sweet and refreshing, and won't burden the stomach too much.

The ingredients are all ready-made, and the amount of seasoning is assisted by Yusha. The appearance of the sweet soup is not very good, but the taste is not bad even after tasting it silently.

If the taste was not good, he would not serve it for A Yu to taste.

Lian Mo brought it to A Yu himself, and Yu Sha followed behind to help him open the door.

After Ji Yerong came back, he didn't change his clothes, and stood alone in front of the window in a daze, expressionless, wondering what he was thinking.

"Ayu, eat something." Lian Mo held the bowl, and Yu Sha took the tray over.

Ji Yerong came back to his senses, stared at him with dead eyes, pursed his thin lips tightly, and turned to leave without saying a word.

Lian Mo held the bowl in one hand and held her wrist with the other, "Ayu..."

Ji Yerong turned around and shook off his hand without hesitation. With a lot of strength, he accidentally touched the bowl. Because it was hot soup, the wall of the bowl was very hot. Lian Mo couldn't hold it steady, and the bowl was overturned. Most of the hot soup was splashed on his hands.

The delicate bowl fell to the ground, and the delicious hot soup was sticky on his hands and wrists, falling to the ground bit by bit.

Yu Sha on the side exclaimed in shock: "Your Excellency..."

He reached out to help wipe the hot soup on his hands, but Lian Mo grabbed Ji Yerong's hand immediately, and dragged her to the bathroom in strides.

Turn on the cold water switch of the faucet, immediately put Ji Yerong's right hand under it, and rinse it with cold water.

The eyes shifted from her red fingertips to her cool and elegant face, and she asked with concern: "Is it very painful?"
Before Ji Yerong could speak, he turned his head and told Yu Sha who was still in the room, "Bring me some burn ointment."

Yu Sha didn't move for a long time, and even became impatient, she strode out of the bathroom and scolded Yu Sha angrily: "What are you still doing? Do you want me to find it myself?"

Yeyuan is so big, how does he know where to put a scald ointment!If he knew, he wouldn't count on Yusha.

Yu Sha came to her senses, and quickly turned around and went out to get the ointment for the burn.

Lian Mo squeezed out a little of the ointment, and gently touched Ji Yerong's red fingertips, afraid that she would hurt, so he kept blowing.

"There are no blisters, so it shouldn't be a big problem." Lian Mo looked up at her, without any intention of blaming her.

But Ji Yerong didn't seem to appreciate it. He pulled his fingertips away and looked away. He didn't look at him, and he didn't want to speak.

The corners of Lian Mo's mouth stiffened slightly, and he said after a while: "I'll ask Yu Sha to bring you another bowl, it's okay not to eat anything, A Yu will be as thin as short ribs!"

The word "no need" rolled around on the tip of his tongue and swallowed back into his stomach. Since he wanted to be affectionate, why should she stop him? Whether to eat or not is up to her!
Lianmo went out, and half an hour later, he asked Yu Sha to bring the hot soup in, and told Yu Sha to watch her eat, even if it was just a few mouthfuls.

Yusha nodded.

Lian Mo didn't go in again, he knew that if he brought it in by himself, she would definitely not want to eat it, so now he was counting on Yu Sha to persuade her to eat some.

He turned around and went to the study, and took her out in the afternoon. He accumulated a lot of things that he hadn't dealt with, and he might not even have a chance to sleep tonight.

Yu Sha put the hot soup on the bedside, and persuaded, "Sister Ye Rong, at least you should eat a little, otherwise how can your body hold it?"

Ji Yerong looked sideways at the mysterious night outside the window, and said indifferently, "Take it out."

She has no appetite at all.

Yu Sha didn't break out, turned around to clean up the overturned bowl, squatted on the ground to get the cold bowl, and said suddenly: "Three times."

When Ji Yerong heard the words, his eyes finally turned to her no longer meanly: "What?"

Yu Sha stood up holding the bowl, and looked up at her, "Your Excellency made this bowl of soup by himself. He made it three times. He confirmed that the taste is good before serving it."

The clear outline was startled, the light from the corner of his eyes swept towards the bowl on the bedside table, did he make it himself?
No one knows better than her that Lian Mo has never been in the kitchen since he was a child, stretching out his hands to eat and opening his mouth. He is also obsessed with cleanliness, and he can't stand the smell of oily smoke in the kitchen.

How could he...

"Sister Ye Rong, I know that I am a lowly servant. I have no right or position to say some things, but today I will treat it as an overstep. If you are unhappy, you will punish me."

The implication is that even if she is punished, she still has to say something.

"You are a person of few words. Miss Mujin and I can see how much pain you have in your heart because of Your Excellency. We often privately blame Your Excellency for being too harsh and ruthless to you. Until your accident, Your Excellency every night I drove downstairs and waited all night. Finally, Miss Mujin went downstairs and drove you away, and you never came again. I thought Miss Mujin couldn't forgive you, but afterward, she couldn't bear to see Your Excellency stays downstairs every night, waiting for someone who will never come back. I asked her, why didn’t she complain? Ms. Mujin answered me, the relationship is plain, one person breaks free, one person picks it up, and two people are willing to suffer , others have no right to point fingers. Furthermore, I am afraid that your heart is suffering no less than you, because your character is too indifferent and stubborn."

Hearing Yu Sha mention hibiscus, Ji Yerong's eyes dimmed.

"During your absence, Your Excellency took more care of Miss Mujin than before. No matter what was good, I gave it to Miss Mujin immediately, and everything was arranged for her. At first Miss Mujin didn't want it, so I returned everything, Your Excellency He sent it back intact, and asked someone to pass a message to Miss Mujin, he said: In the days when Ayu is away, we will only be left as brothers and sisters to depend on each other."
