Episode 67 Beginning to Lose
Remember our website, I wish you a happy reading! Don't forget to spread the word.
The night breeze is slightly cool.
All around fell silent.
Tuanzi walked alone on the bluestone road, heading for his residence.
The moonlight elongated her shadow, making her somewhat deserted for no reason.
She lowered her head, seemed to be thinking about something, and walked away absent-mindedly.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of her, and she was about to bump into it.
Tuanzi immediately came back to his senses, and in a panic, his body fell backwards uncontrollably.
But the other party moved faster than her, and the warm palm grabbed her arm, easily stabilizing her figure.
"Why don't you look at the road?"
A familiar low voice came from above his head.
Tuanzi breathed a sigh of relief, and when he looked up, he saw that it was Zichen.
She shook her head:
"Thinking about something."
Zichen frowned slightly.
"What’s wrong with you?"
She has always been lively and cheerful, with a smile on her face, but now she seems to have something on her mind.
"What's wrong, you're not happy?"
Tuanzi immediately shook his head, meeting Zichen's eyes, feeling a little helpless.
Is it... so obvious?
She can't seem to hide anything...
Seeing her expression, Zichen couldn't laugh or cry.
She really didn't know that her little emotions were always very straightforward on her face.
At this moment, it's almost as if the words "I'm not happy but how do you know it so well" are engraved on my face.
Tuanzi opened his mouth, wanting to ask about him and Miao Xuanxuan, but for some reason, deep in his heart, he hesitated again.
It seems... I don't want to hear anything.
Although she was ignorant, she also felt that her secret thoughts were not suitable for publicizing.
So, she swallowed those few words back and changed the subject.
"It's nothing, just, just a little tired..."
Zi Chen stared at her for a while.
She wouldn't tell such a small lie, and she didn't even dare to look at him when she was talking.
However, it seemed that she really didn't want to say it, and Zichen didn't force it.
He nodded:
"I've heard that you've done a lot on the Divine Phoenix Mountain, and you're very powerful."
As he said that, he subconsciously wanted to stretch out his hand to gently rub her head.
But halfway through, his expression moved slightly, but he retracted calmly.
Tuanzi could see clearly.
She couldn't tell what it was like.
Coming back this time...Zichen seems to be different.
But she couldn't explain the specifics clearly, so she could only feel so dull and uncomfortable.
She responded indifferently.
It is said that?
Tuanzi inexplicably remembered what Yiming said during the day.
Are you really so busy that you don't even have time to take a look?
Was he too confident in her, or... just didn't care?
Originally, she had absolute trust in Zichen, but after chatting with Ah Yue just now, she finally realized that it seemed...she had overlooked something.
Ah Yue said that Zichen may not like Miao Xuanxuan now, but that doesn't mean he won't in the future.
He seems to be trying to accept other people.
Ayue also said that recently, Zichen really cares about Miao Xuanxuan's affairs.
what does that mean?
"It's late, go back and rest."
Before Tuanzi's answer, Zichen didn't seem to mind,
"Everything is prepared for you."
Tuanzi followed his gaze, only to realize that they were standing at the gate of her courtyard.
And Zichen seems... just came out of it?
Tuanzi asked: "Ah, Zichen, did you prepare it for me?"
Zichen nodded, and said:
"You came back in a hurry today, so you don't have time to prepare too much, so make it up."
Tuanzi shook his head again and again, smiling brightly:
"That's great! Zichen, you don't even know that I can't eat or sleep without you being here for the past three months!"
She flattened her mouth and acted coquettishly unconsciously.
Zichen's eyes moved slightly.
Tuanzi took his hand and was about to walk into the house.
"Have you eaten? If not, let's go together!"
Zichen didn't move.
With a slight twist of his wrist, he easily broke free from Tuanzi's hand.
The hand suddenly became empty, which made Tuanzi stunned for a moment.
"Purple dust?"
"I still have something to do, so I can't accompany you today."
Zichen said.
Tuanzi opened his eyes slightly.
She has never, never heard such words here at Zichen.
"But--"
But, weren't we all together before?
Why are you suddenly busy now?
Looking at that indifferent and arrogant face, Tuanzi didn't know what to think, and blurted out:
"Are you going to work on Miao Xuanxuan's affairs?"
Zichen was about to deny it, but when he saw her expression, he suddenly stopped.
he
The tip of his tongue lightly touched the palate, and then he let out a very light and shallow "hmm".
He gave an affirmative answer so bluntly and smoothly, which left Tuanzi at a loss as to what to do.
She really just asked casually, who knows——
My mind suddenly became confused, and there seemed to be something surging in my heart.
After a while, she finally said, "Got it."
After she finished speaking, she raised her hand and gently rubbed her little finger on the brow bone.
"Then...then you go to work, I will go back first!"
Zichen stared at her closely, seeing her emotions clearly.
It's not that I don't feel bad, but——
"Have a good rest. Also, remember the girl's room, don't let others in casually."
Tuanzi was stunned: "But you are not someone else."
Zi Chen seemed to laugh.
But he didn't say anything, and finally turned around and left.
His figure was quickly swallowed by the night.
It wasn't until he couldn't see it anymore that Tuanzi looked away and walked into his yard.
Obviously, the room has been cleaned, and all kinds of things she likes to eat are set on the table.
Zichen has taken care of her for many years, and knows her preferences best. Of course, this kind of thing is also done very smoothly.
The dumpling sat down at the table.
Seeing these foods in the past, she must have eaten them happily, but today, for some reason, she has no appetite.
——In the past, Zichen ate with her.
Even if there are many things he doesn't like, it's good for him to just sit there.
Tuanzi thought in a daze, and reached out to rub his stomach gently.
It seems... a little uncomfortable.
It seems that it is not uncomfortable here.
She slumped down on the table a little.
There was silence all around.
She rested on her arm, looking at the dense night outside, her eyes were blank.
She knew that she was unhappy, and it seemed that it was because of what Zichen said just now.
Does Zichen mean that he put Miao Xuanxuan in a higher position?
Does that also mean that he cares about her more?
But didn't they just know each other not long ago?
In other words, people are like this, and what they can give is limited.
She doesn't quite understand.
But she vaguely had a guess:
It's just the beginning, and Zichen has stopped eating with her. If Zichen and Miao Xuanxuan are really together in the future, wouldn't she lose all of these?
