Xue Xichen hugged the quilt and nestled comfortably on the bed, closing her eyes to relax. Suddenly she heard a "bang" on the window lattice. She suddenly opened her eyes, turned over and sat up, staring at the curl of incense with her clear and sharp eyes without blinking.
's bedroom.
"who!"
A black shadow passed before her eyes, and Xue Xichen subconsciously took action. The wind swept away her palm, and the black shadow flew away. She rolled onto the bed, covered Xue Xichen's mouth, and whispered in her ear: "It's me!"
Phantom?!
Xue Xichen was surprised, and quickly slapped away the palm covering her mouth, turned around and looked at Phantom, and said in surprise: "Phantom?! Why did you come in through the window?!"
The phantom in front of her resumed her usual mysterious appearance, wearing a black night suit and a dark golden mask. The familiar scene made Xue Xichen seem to have returned to the night of her wedding to Feng Qingge in the Palace of the God of War. Xue Xichen didn't realize it.
A little confused. After calming down, she asked in surprise: "Phantom, why did you climb through the window if there is a door but you can't leave?"
"You know, Xiao Liuyue doesn't want to see me."
It seemed that he was explaining Xue Xichen's questions, and also seemed to be telling Xue Xichen his helplessness. Phantom's generous palm caressed Xue Xichen's slightly pale cheek, and asked with concern: "How is your health? Are you feeling better?"
"
"Yeah! Much better." Xue Xichen moved, looked at Phantom with bright eyes, and asked with concern, "What about you? Is Hai Cuiling still causing trouble for you?"
"No." Phantom was a little surprised. Xue Xichen actually knew that the woman he fought with that night was Hai Cuiling. He couldn't help but ask: "Have you investigated afterward?"
"Huh? Ah..." Xue Xichen realized that she had accidentally let it slip. She smiled, acquiescing to Phantom's words. She said, "I don't know much. I only know that Hai Cuiling was sent by the emperor."
The killer,...but I see that you and Hai Cuiling seem to know each other, and Hai Cuiling seems to...you..." What does that mean? She added secretly in her heart.
Phantom was slightly absent-minded. He lowered his eyes, sighed softly, and asked in a low voice: "You want to know?"
"Huh? No..." Everyone has their own secret, "If you don't want to tell me, I won't force you." Although she gossiped, she didn't want to make the Phantom unhappy.
Phantom smiled, as if that incident was not something difficult to discuss, "Hai Cuiling and I are indeed old acquaintances, but it's not what you imagined."
"It's not like that...then what is it like?"
Phantom laughed, lightly scratched Xue Xichen's nose with her fingertips, and said jokingly: "You still say you don't want to know! You are duplicitous!"
"Huh……"
Realizing that she had inadvertently exposed her gossipy nature, Xue Xichen couldn't help but stick out her tongue and said with an embarrassed smile: "That... no... you don't want to say it... you don't have to say it..."
"I told you, it's not a big deal." Phantom replied, "An operation failed. Hai Cuiling was seriously injured and was chased by her enemies. I happened to pass by and saved Hai Cuiling..."
"Hero saves beauty?!"
What a cliche plot! Hai Cuiling fell in love with the Phantom...
Phantom flicked Xue Xichen's head with her fingertips and said helplessly: "Where did you think you were?"
"I'm not thinking wildly!" Xue Xichen believed in her own eyes, "Hai Cuiling obviously has secret feelings for you. It's just that you are too slow to feel it..."
The phantom is silent.
In fact, he was not without feelings. In every confrontation, Hai Cuiling was merciless... That time he failed to assassinate Feng Long Xiang and was injured, Hai Cuiling helped him escape from the palace... In fact, he had already noticed it
Hai Cuiling has feelings for him. However, as a killer, he cannot have feelings! Therefore, he has always turned a blind eye. In fact, he is also doing it for Hai Cuiling's good...
After all, he and Hai Cuiling were on completely opposite sides. He and Hai Cuiling were destined to fight each other to the death, but could not live together...
Once, he thought that Phantom was heartless. However, after meeting Xue Meitong, he was shocked to realize that his heart was still warm, that he still had hatred, that he still had pain, and that he still had impulses.
Now, after meeting Xue Xichen...
Lowering his eyes, the corners of his lips couldn't help but raise a beautiful arc. He raised his eyes again, put his palms on Xue Xichen's beautiful face, caressing her lovingly inch by inch, and said sincerely: "Xichen, as long as you are safe and sound, then
Just like...I missed it once once,...this time, I won't miss it again..."
"ha?"
Xue Xichen's eyes widened and she looked confused.
What should you miss? What is the Phantom saying?
Seeing Xue Xichen's puzzled face, Phantom laughed in her heart. Even though Xue Xichen is usually very shrewd, when it comes to emotional matters, she is always so slow and hateful that it makes people hateful! That's it! If she doesn't understand, she doesn't understand!
One day, she will understand! And he is not in a hurry to let her understand!
After all, he is still Feng Qingge's killer, and he must do things for Feng Qingge. Only when he helps Feng Qingge complete this last thing, completely breaks away from Feng Qingge, and regains his freedom, can he be qualified to stand on the side of Feng Qingge.
Be by her side, protect her, take care of her and protect her for the rest of her life!
As long as he is Feng Qingge's killer, love and happiness will be nothing but lies! He cannot give Xue Xichen happiness now! Therefore, he must not drag Xue Xichen down, let alone see Xue Xichen step on the road.
The footsteps of Xue Meitong!
"Xichen, take care of yourself."
After finishing this last thing, I can stay by your side forever. So, before that, please take good care of yourself.
"Don't worry!" Xue Xichen smiled and patted Phantom on the shoulder in a friendly manner, "Phantom, you don't have to worry about me! It's you, Feng Longxiang wants your head, so you have to be careful. Feng Qingge wants to do it.
It's all a life-threatening job, and if you're not careful, you'll end up dead. If you follow him, you must take care of yourself."
"Xichen, don't worry, I will do it!"
For you, I will take good care of myself!
"I feel relieved about this!"
Xue Xichen held Phantom's shoulders and smiled with a bright smile on her face.
Touched by Xue Xichen's smile, the corners of Phantom's lips raised and she couldn't help but reveal a bright smile.
"By the way, Ying, do you have anything to do these days?"
"no, what happened?"
"Now, if you have time, accompany me to a place every few days."
"Okay! Where are you going?"
"A Thousand Gold Iron Shop."
"A Thousand Gold Iron Shop?"
"Yes! I ordered a small crossbow from Mr. Tie of Qianjin Iron Shop, and the day I agreed to pick it up will be in a few days."
"Do you want me to accompany you to pick up the goods?"
"May I?"
"certainly!"
For Phantom, it was a dream for him to be invited by Xue Xichen.
Xue Xichen was very happy, "Okay! Let's go together in a few days! By the way, you can also help me try the bow!"
