Ling Yun's eyes widened and he hesitated, "Zi... Zixuan, you... why are you here?"
Zixuan looked at him with a smile on her face, as if she was searching for something, until she found nothing unusual. She glanced at Guo Yixiu and said thoughtfully, "I am here to visit relatives, and I stopped by to visit Yixiu and the others."
Compared to Ling Yun's impatience, Zixuan seemed calmer, as if she had been prepared.
"Oh~"
Realizing that he might have misunderstood, Ling Yun touched his nose and smiled awkwardly.
The moment he lowered his head, Ling Yun didn't notice at all. When Zixuan said these words, the small tree behind him rolled his eyes, as if he was hinting at something.
After a long pause, after being prompted by Guo Yixiu, Ling Yun patted his head lightly and said, "Oh! Zixuan, hurry...please come inside."
Several people followed Ling Yun into the front hall. After sitting down, no one spoke, so that the scene was quiet for a while. It happened that Xiao Shu and Guo Yixiu's eyes fell on him, as if they were waiting for him to speak.
Zixuan, on the other hand, held the teacup in her hand, took a sip, and nodded frequently, showing no interest, but turned a blind eye to what the two of them were doing.
At this situation, Ling Yun smiled bitterly, because he didn't know what to say, so he hesitated to speak, but facing the burning eyes of the two people, it was obviously not possible to remain silent.
"Zixuan, have you seen any relatives during this trip?"
"puff!"
As soon as these words came out, Guo Yixiu and Xiaoshu were stunned and looked at him in disbelief, feeling like they had goosebumps.
Ling Yun naturally realized what was unreasonable and couldn't help but want to slap his mouth. He sighed helplessly and thought to himself: What nonsense are you talking about?
"Yes! I see you."
Unexpectedly, Zixuan didn't mind, but nodded and answered his question seriously.
Just when Ling Yun didn't know how to continue the conversation, Zixuan spoke first, "I heard that you were injured, but is it true?"
"ah?"
Ling Yun was startled and suspicious, wondering how Zixuan knew about his injury. He turned to look at Guo Yixiu, only to see that the latter lowered his head and did not dare to look at him.
At this time, Ling Yun vaguely guessed that this matter was definitely related to Guo Yixiu.
After thinking for a moment, he replied, "It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."
Obviously, this answer did not satisfy Zixuan. She stared at him and asked, "It's just a minor injury?"
Ling Yun suddenly panicked and couldn't help but said, "Bi...Bi was slightly injured, but Zixuan, don't worry, I'm in good health and will have recovered a long time ago."
"Yeah?"
Zixuan obviously didn't believe it, and looked at him up and down with suspicion.
"Ahem..."
Ling Yun coughed twice in embarrassment, trying to cover up his inner guilt.
"Zixuan, how long do you plan to stay here?"
Zixuan said calmly, "Why, you don't want me to be here?"
Ling Yun waved his hands hurriedly, shook his head and said, "No...no, Zixuan, that's not what I meant, that's not what I meant..."
Zixuan suddenly realized and exclaimed, "Oh! So it's because of my arrival that you feel uneasy?"
"No... Zixuan, I didn't. I... I hope you are always here."
"shock!"
Guo Yixiu and Xiaoshu looked at Ling Yun with wide eyes.
Ling Yun paused, recalling what he just said, his whole body trembled, his eyes were dull, and his brain stopped functioning instantly.
Caressing her forehead, she glanced at Zixuan secretly, only to find that the corners of her mouth were raised and her face was flushed, like a very happy child.
"Ah~ Oh, Zixuan, there's something going on down there, I have to go out first."
"Yi Xiu, I have to go out first. You can arrange a room for Zixuan later."
Ling Yun was so embarrassed that he could deduct three bedrooms and one living room. In order to avoid embarrassing things from happening again, he wanted to pretend that he had something to do and needed to go out, so that Guo Yixiu could stay and arrange housing for Zixuan and his party.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, he was immediately rebutted by Guo Yixiu.
"Master Yun, I just heard you say that you have finished everything. What are you doing?"
Guo Yixiu bluntly exposed the embarrassment in Ling Yun's heart, and he really wanted to find a crack in the ground to burrow into.
Ling Yun looked embarrassed, his brain was working rapidly, and he found an excuse to excuse himself, "I just heard that Old Man Huang said that there was something wrong with the Liannu, and I needed to go over and take a look."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Yun thought that there should be no problem now, right?
Who would have thought that Zixuan suddenly stood up and said, "I happen to be tired from sitting, why don't you take me with you?"
Ling Yun's body stiffened, as if he was sifting through chaff.
"Okay...okay!"
Ling Yun is in front and Zixuan is behind.
The two of them were walking towards the door, one behind the other.
When Xiaoshu saw this, he clapped his hands and quickly followed.
But as soon as she raised her feet, she was grabbed by Guo Yixiu.
"Xiaoshu, what do you want to do?"
Xiaoshu was stunned for a moment, not knowing why, and blurted out, "Master Yixiu, I...I want to go find the lady."
"You go find Miss? I happen to have something to do here, please come and help me."
Guo Yixiu didn't give her a chance to follow him, but stopped her because he needed help.
"this…"
Xiaoshu glanced at Zixuan who was walking away, looking hesitant.
Seeing that she didn't give up, Guo Yixiu immediately said displeasedly, "What are you still standing there for? Don't you even listen to what I say?"
Xiaoshu shook his head, "Xiao...Xiaoshu, I don't dare."
"In that case, then come with me!"
After saying that, he walked out. It is worth mentioning that his direction was exactly opposite to Ling Yun. Xiaoshu glanced hesitantly in Ling Yun's direction, and finally followed Guo Yixiu and left.
…
Ling Yun walked aimlessly, with a person following behind him, which made him a little unable to adapt, but at the same time he didn't want him to notice, so he could only lower his head and move forward.
While walking, I accidentally came to the blacksmith shop. When Huang Dadong saw him, he quickly ran up and said, "Ouch! Master Yun, why are you here?"
When he glanced behind him, he was surprised to find that there was another person, and this person looked to be as old as Ling Yun, with dark eyes, wheat-colored cheeks with blush, and a very beautiful appearance.
Noticing someone looking at her, Zixuan raised her head and gave him a gentle and touching smile.
Huang Dadong paused and realized something. He lowered his head and saluted hurriedly, "Young Huang Dadong, I have met the young lady."
As soon as these words came out, Ling Yun and Zixuan froze at the same time.
"Ahem..."
Ling Yun was so anxious that he coughed repeatedly. When he looked at Zixuan, he found that her face was red and her head was lowered tightly.
After hesitating for a moment, Ling Yun immediately explained, "That...Old Man Huang, this is Miss Zixuan, not my wife."
Old Man Huang looked at Ling Yun and then at Zixuan. For someone of his age, his eyes were so sharp that he could see the unusual relationship between the two with just one glance.
I saw an expression on his face that I knew well, and said, "Master Yun, there is no need to explain, I understand, I understand..."
"Forehead!"
Ling Yun was speechless and didn't know how to answer.
But the shock was still to come. Seeing that Ling Yun was silent, Huang Dadong immediately called to all the blacksmiths, "Stop all of you and come out."
In Ling Yun's confusion, the blacksmiths came out and said, "Young men, I have seen Master Yun!"
But when they saw Zixuan, they were obviously stunned.
Huang Dadong scolded, "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Why don't you come and see the young lady soon?"
"ah?"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked. Without thinking, they hurriedly saluted Zixuan, "Young men, I have seen the young lady."
Ling Yun couldn't tell what he was talking about. He put his hand on his forehead and sighed softly: Now even if he really jumped into the Yellow River, he couldn't wash himself off.
