"Where is Shen Jue?"

When Qiao Jiangyuan saw Yuqing's first glance, the other party couldn't wait to ask. Yuqing seems to have changed a little more than it was more than a year ago. His figure became more upright, his face was beautiful with a touch of firmness, and his eyebrows and eyes had a lingering evil spirit.

This is what talents who have been fighting on the battlefield all year round will have.

Qiao Jiangyuan silently took the bottle in front of him, poured himself a glass of wine, and after a while he opened his mouth.

"I thought he was with you."

Yuqing frowned slightly, "What's with me? Where did he go?"

Qiao Jiangyuan looked at Yuqing's eyes in a hurry, and smiled faintly. He slowly drank the red wine in the glass, "How do I know, you can find it yourself."

Upon hearing this, Yuqing directly grabbed Qiao Jiangyuan and lifted the person up. The servants of Qiao's family were shocked when they saw it, and immediately rushed to stop Yuqing. But Qiao Jiangyuan stretched out a hand to stop them.

"I really don't know, he didn't tell me where I was going." Qiao Jiangyuan's lips had a hint of sarcasm, "I thought he went to stay with you, but I didn't expect you to be abandoned. Then he liked it. It seems that the person is not you either."

He laughed when he finished speaking, as if he felt very funny.

Yuqing only felt that Qiao Jiangyuan in front of him seemed to have become mad, and there was a touch of disgust in his eyes, "I know he gave you almost all of his property, how can you not know where he is?"

"How do I know?" Qiao Jiangyuan's expression became cold, and his eyes became cold. "He didn't tell me, you want him, don't find him."

Yuqing held Qiao Jiangyuan's hand tightly, and after a while, he released the person in front of him.

There is nothing to ask from Qiao Jiangyuan. Yuqing still decided to rely on himself. He didn't escape this time, but took a serious vacation, which lasted three months.

A few months ago, Shen Jue’s letter stated that she would change to a new residence in the near future and could not write. He said that she would take the initiative to write to Yuqing’s new address after a while, but Yuqing did not wait for Shen Jue’s letter.

After a batch of vacations, he couldn't wait to rush back to the imperial capital, but the news was that Shen Jue had left the imperial capital. Yuqing even contacted the nobles he had known at the banquet, but no one knew Shen Jue's whereabouts, but they all knew that Shen Jue had donated all his property to Qiao Jiangyuan.

In the next two months, he almost tried his best to find Shen Jue, whether it was to publish in the newspaper or go to various cities where Shen Jue might be located. Finally, he finally got a little bit of useful news.

There was a nobleman who met Shen Jue at the train station a few months ago. He casually asked Shen Jue where he was going, and the answer given to him was really surprising.

Shen Jue said that he was going to the small border town where the blood and humans were divided.

It is where most of the half-bloods live, and it is also the hometown of Yuqing.

Yuqing was stunned for a moment when she learned that Shen Jue had gone there, but he quickly bought a ticket and went all the way south. Five days later, he finally arrived at the border town.

When I got out of the car, Yuqing felt the difference between this place and the capital. Most of the pedestrians in the imperial capital are well-dressed, and the train station here is already surrounded by a group of beggars. When they see someone getting off the train, they swarm up, thinking about asking for money and food.

Yuqing has stayed here, knowing that he can't give alms, because once he gives alms, the remaining people who are still waiting will rush up, and whether he can leave the train station will be a problem.

Compared to other people, Yuqing was easy to squeeze out of the crowd. Although those people wanted to surround Yuqing, they didn't dare to move after carefully looking at the other's overall temperament.

After Yuqing left the train station, he first found the largest Yahang in the city. Yahang was in charge of renting out the houses. Yuqing spent a little money to get a few words from a staff of Yahang.

A few months ago, a man who looked like a nobleman came here to rent a house and lived in the east part of the city. The man didn't tell Yuqing exactly where he lived, and only asked Yuqing to find it by himself.

Although Yuqing had been in trouble all the way, he had no intention of going to take a bath first. He wanted to see Shen Jue as soon as possible, so he rushed to the east of the city without stopping.

This time he bought some blood sugar to share with a few children playing on the street, and asked them to find out who had just moved here recently. He specifically mentioned the man.

The children played on the streets all day, and sometimes the news was better than that of the adults. In less than an hour, the children returned one after another, and Yuqing finally learned of Shen Jue's residence.

An extremely kind adult among the children lives in the penultimate house in the old city east of the city.

When Yuqing walked to the door of the house, the door was closed with a big lock hanging on it. It seemed that people should not be at home. He had to stand by the door and wait quietly, and when the sky turned blue, he heard the sound of someone coming back stepping on the dawn.

The sound of footsteps was very obvious on the empty street.

Yuqing stood up straight, raised his head, and saw people not far away at a glance. The man lowered his head, touched something in his pocket, and walked this way. After a while, the man took out a key from his pocket. He just raised his head and saw Yuqing at the door.

Yuqing's Adam's apple rolled up and down, her eyes staring at the person in front of her idiotically.

He is thin, his complexion is still sickly pale, and the suit is over his body, and he looks a bit generous.

Yuqing took a silent breath, stepped forward and hugged the opponent. He didn't dare to use force for fear that the opponent would be broken if he tried hard.

The person seemed a little surprised, and he was a little bit unrecovered by Yuqing, "Why are you here?"

"This should be the question I asked you." Yuqing whispered, "Why are you here?"

Shen Jue didn't speak, Yuqing thought for a while, decided not to rush for this moment, he took the key in the opponent's hand and stepped forward to open the door.

The house is small and cramped, and the air is filled with the smell of dampness, as if the ground has been leaking water for a long time. Yuqing grabbed Shen Jue's hand and walked in, frowning. When he saw the unknown trace on the wall, he stepped on the creaking wooden stairs with a more serious expression, "Follow me to the hotel."

Shen Jue took his hand out of Yuqing's, "I don't want to go, it's good here, if you want to go, go by yourself."

Upon seeing this, Yuqing held Shen Jue's hand again, not letting the other person break away, "Okay, don't go to the hotel, is your room upstairs?"

Shen Jue's room is probably the only room in this house where people can still see people, but this room is not as good as Yuqing's original servant room in the manor.

The water pipe in the corner hummed and made a strange noise. The ceiling is even more black, and I don't know what it was smoked out.

Looking at this environment, Yuqing couldn’t believe how Shen Jue lived during this period, but Shen Jue had a calm expression, took off his coat in front of Yuqing, and said, “I want to take a bath first. May I?"

"Go." Yuqing saw Shen Jue go to the bathroom and walked to Shen Jue's bed. He reached out and touched the bed. It was hard, as if the bed was underneath.

Shen Jue took a long time in this bath. When he came out, he couldn't adjust the water temperature, and his pale face was smoked with a faint blush.

He walked to the bed and sat down, gently wiped his hair with a towel, and took money from the pocket of his coat.

Seeing the handful of scattered money, Yuqing frowned, "What is this?"

Shen Jue looked back at Yuqing, and seemed a little surprised that he was so rare and strange, "I am calculating how much I can spend on living expenses this month to pay for the next month."

But just over a year, Yuqing suddenly discovered that Shen Jue seemed to have completely changed into another person. Originally, Shen Jue never cared about this kind of small money, but now he has to count these odds and ends carefully several times.

Yuqing felt a little out of breath, he couldn't help standing up, pacing back and forth, and then whispered, "Where are the others? Butler? Ye Ye and the others?"

"I fired them." Shen Jue said calmly, "After all, I don't have the money to hire them now."

"Then why..." Do you want to give all your property to Qiao Jiangyuan?

Yuqing wanted to ask, but for some reason, he dared not ask. He looked at Shen Jue a little irritably, and finally could only say: "I'll take a bath first."

The water in Shen Jue is either the same as ice water, or the water is so hot that it can almost scald a layer of skin. In the end, Yuqing could only take a bath in ice water. Fortunately, he is in good health now, otherwise he must be sick.

After taking a shower, he became more dissatisfied with this place, and he couldn't wait to take Shen Jue out immediately. He couldn't imagine how the other party stayed here for months.

He did not see Shen Jue in the room when he came out.

When Yuqing came this time, he brought a small suitcase. He found clothes and put it on. At this time, Shen Jue opened the door and came in, "Are you going to eat something before going to bed?"

Yuqing looked back at him and found that Shen Jue was holding the dinner plate in her hand. She was taken aback, "You..." He took a breath and walked quickly to Shen Jue's front and took the dinner plate. , "You can teach me to do these things."

He turned his eyes and saw a small scratch on Shen Jue's hand, which was not there yet.

Yuqing's heart was really complicated at this time. He put the dinner plate aside, took Shen Jue's hand and looked at it carefully before looking at each other, "Duke, come back with me."

Shen Jue lowered his eyes and shook his head gently.

"Why?" Yuqing frowned, "There is no good place here."

"But I just like to stay here. If you don't like it, you can leave by yourself." Shen Jue pulled his hand back.

...

Shen Jue refused to leave, and Yuqing naturally couldn't leave alone. He had to stay here temporarily. The other rooms were not cleaned and could not live at all, so Yuqing made a floor under Shen Jue's bed that day.

The reason why he didn't sleep in bed was because the bed was too small. If he went to sleep, Shen Jue would have no place to sleep.

Yuqing lay on the ground, staring at the bed wisely. Shen Jue fell asleep with his back to him, as if already asleep. He sighed silently, but he couldn't understand Shen Jue's thoughts.

He now only hopes that the other party is on a whim and wants to experience the lives of civilians.

But for the next ten days, Yuqing accompanied Shen Jue every day. No matter how he persuaded, Shen Jue was determined to stay here. If Yuqing said he wanted to leave, he would let Yuqing go alone.

The day when Yuqing returns to the team is getting closer. Actually, there is another reason why he came to Shen Jue on vacation. He was going to be promoted to the rank of deputy general of the White Dragon Army. The arrogant and domineering Wang Shengfeng was abandoned on the battlefield by him. One hand, but the Wang family dared not move him.

Because there are people in the army who are very respectful of youth, this three-month holiday was also specially approved.

He wanted to take Shen Jue to see his promotion ceremony, but Shen Jue was unwilling to leave, and even expressed his intention to live here for a long time.

Yuqing went to Shen Jue's current place of work, a very small bank, and his salary was even meager. Every day after the bank closed, Shen Jue had to stay there and work overtime, categorize all the money and count them.

So Shen Jue often comes back at dawn.

The security here is also very poor. Yuqing only stayed here for a few days, and the glass in the house Shen Jue rented was broken by two pieces. Some people even sneaked in at night to steal things, but fortunately they were caught by Yuqing.

Yuqing beat the thief severely.

In this place, the judge is almost useless.

He has only stayed here for more than ten days, and he has seen too many dissatisfactions, he can't let Shen Jue stay here alone.

"Duke, come with me." Yuqing put Shen Jue's hand to her lips and said pleadingly, "This is not a good place."

Shen Jue looked lightly, "I said, I won't go, you have to go, go by yourself."

Yuqing pursed her lower lip, not knowing how to say it, but it is not long before the day he should go, he must go tomorrow, otherwise the army will treat him as rejecting the promotion. Then his hard work for more than four years was in vain. Seeing that what he wanted was right in front of him, as long as he worked hard and made a few great achievements, he might still get the chance to be nominated.

can……

Where is Shen Jue?

He is gone, what should Shen Jue do?

Yuqing lives here and finds that Shen Jue can't take care of herself at all, so she doesn't say anything, and often hurts herself. How can a pampered nobleman learn to take care of himself in just a few months?

Yuqing discovered that there was an invisible choice before him. Either stay here with Shen Jue and take care of Shen Jue, or he would go back and take down the low-hanging glory and wealth.

His dream when he was a child was to become a master. Seeing that his dream is about to come true, he can't make a decision right now.

If he goes back, Shen Jue lives here alone, Yuqing can hardly imagine how long Shen Jue can live here, and the long distance is not conducive to the growth of feelings. What he originally thought was that if he had made great contributions and was knighted, he would be able to return to the imperial capital, but now...

How to choose?

On one side is the glory and wealth, on the other side is the person he loves.

Yuqing couldn’t fall asleep the day he was leaving, but Shen Jue got up very early. He made a cup of blood tea for Yuqing, and told Yuqing that this was his first soak, and asked if Yuqing was good. drink.

Yuqing drank the cup of blood tea clean, the bottom of the cup was so clean that it almost reflected his face.

"Delicious?" Shen Jue smiled.

Yuqing put down the cup and looked up at the person in front of him. Shen Jue has changed and become more cheerful. Although life is poor here, he always smiles and will take the initiative to greet neighbors, which was impossible in the past.

The arrogant Duke Shen Jue will always look at people with his nostrils.

Suddenly, Yuqing found that she had tried her best to climb up in order to match the opponent, but the other party walked down from the gorgeous ivory tower and walked in front of him.

A smile appeared from the corner of his lips, "It's delicious, I want to drink it every day, okay?" The words fell, and he reached out and held the other person's hand on the table.

He figured it out clearly. He wanted to be with each other more than glory and wealth. As long as together, whether it was poverty or wealth, he could accept it.

When the moon he loves is in the high clouds, he climbs and wades through the water, holding a ladder, and tries to get close to each other. When the moon he loves is thrown on the water, he takes away the ladder, returns to the place, and embraces it. A puddle of water.

Just stay with each other and it's fine.

Yuqing wrote the letter and sent it to the army. On the day of sending the letter, he was very calm, but Shen Jue asked him several times.

"Are you really not going back?"

"Yeah." Yuqing nodded, "I want to be with you."

Shen Jue watched Yuqing drop the envelope into the red post box, her eyes changed for a moment, but it was a pity that Yuqing didn't notice it.

After sending the letter, he happily took Shen Jue home, and discussed with Shen Jue what to eat today.

...

The days in the border town were ordinary but happy. Yuqing replaced the bed in the room with a large bed. Every night, he could see the peaceful sleep of others, which made his whole heart soft and dealt with it. The letter sent by the army is even more merciless.

He finds a hard labor to move here, every day is tired, but the profit is not bad. With the salary, he replaced the furniture in the house little by little, and repainted the walls to plug the leaks.

Yuqing also kept a row of flowers on the window sill of the house. Every day, he was willing to water the flowers and plants he raised and gave them names.

"Xiao Jue, good morning, it's time to drink water."

"Xiao Shen, you look more beautiful, awesome."

...

When Shen Jue heard these words, he silently picked up the slippers under the bed and threw them to Yuqing. With her back to Shen Jue, Yuqing drew away with a quick response, with an unstoppable smile in her beautiful eyes.

...

Yuqing thought he wouldn't get tired of living like this for a few hundred years, but dreams always seemed to wake up.

He accidentally found an iron box above the closet.

On a whim, he wanted to wipe the dust on the top of the closet, only to see an iron box in the corner above the closet.

The iron box has an exquisite pattern, it is not a common product at first glance, and there is a lock on it.

In fact, Yuqing shouldn't open it, but this box is like a Pandora's box. He clearly suspects that something bad might happen when opened, but he couldn't help it.

He opened the lock, and there were only two things in the iron box, a broken diamond brooch and a diary.

When Yuqing saw the broken diamond brooch, her face suddenly lost blood.
