Chapter 370 Massage

  Even though he thought so, Bai Xianyu still didn't dare to slack off.

  The door was opened to the outside, and the starlight at night was dim. The high wall seemed to be covered with a layer of black veil, and the entire imperial mausoleum was shrouded in it, adding a bit of mystery to it.

  The darker the outside, the brighter the candlelight inside. The girl's eyes were also clear and bright, staring at the young man in front of her without blinking, not letting go of any changes in his expression.

  Xie Xingyun didn't express any extra expressions, only a pair of sword eyebrows were tightly furrowed. Bai Xianyu noticed the veins on the back of his hands popping out and his temples throbbing. She helped him to sit on the chair and closed the door by the way.

  Although it is safe, she must be more cautious. After all, she has taken off her mask now and is her original appearance.

   "How do you feel now?" Bai Xianyu went to pour him a glass of water and put it in front of him.

Xie Xingyun slowed down for an unknown amount of time before he half-raised his eyes to look at her. His long eyelashes left a circle of shadows on his eyelids, and he was already in a cold sweat. The thin pajamas were soaked in sweat, and his smooth muscle lines were inadvertently exposed. Bai Xian Yu was taken aback for a moment, and his eyes briefly flicked across the man's massive and powerful muscles.

  It was only then that she realized that the distance between the two had crossed the line.

   "Xie Xingyun, you... your robe is about to fall off, put it on quickly." Bai Xianyu stood up and reminded him: "You are sweating all over, I will ask someone to prepare water for you to bathe in."

  Xie Xingyun supported his forehead, closed his eyes again, and said in a hoarse voice, "Can you help me?"

   "Are you out of strength?"

"without."

  Bai Xianyu saw that his weak appearance did not seem to be pretending, and Gu Yu also said before that after taking the medicine, there would be some side effects to some extent, so he hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Okay."

   As soon as the words fell, she quickly grabbed his clothes and pulled them up. Because of her strength, she directly covered half of Xie Xingyun's head.

  The man's mouth twitched imperceptibly.

  Bai Xianyu let out an ah, and hurriedly lowered his voice, "Okay, that's all right?"

  Xie Xingyun hummed, his tense nerves finally relaxed, his eyes were fixed on Bai Xianyu beside him, and he was a little lighthearted.

  Although he was not sober when he got sick, he still remembered what he had done and said afterwards.

   Fortunately, it is not a dream, she is still by his side.

  Bai Xianyu quickly put on the mask on herself. She was already very good at this matter, and she quickly changed it and called someone to prepare water.

  Xie Xingyun sat for a while, looking at his description at the moment, seemed to realize that his clothes were disheveled, and frowned slightly.

"Did you have a seizure just now when you were taking a bath?" Bai Xianyu walked in and gasped, "I thought you left at some point and wanted to find you, but I found you were playing with fire inside. .”

  She gestured with her hand, "Hold the fire booklet, say that I am cold, and want to burn the book to keep me warm..."

  Xie Xingyun had a lazy demeanor after being tired, and closed his eyelids lazily, seeing what she said vividly, the corners of his mouth slightly curved, "I remember."

   "Just remember, don't play with such dangerous things next time. Now that you are in the imperial tomb, if you burn the official documents in the study and the emperor's memorial in the imperial study, then there will be a big problem."

  Bai Xianyu shuddered at the thought of that scene. How many people in the court wanted Xie Xingyun's head, but if he showed any flaws, they would definitely arouse them to attack him.

  Especially because Xie Xingyun's illness is still so serious, I don't know how he got here in the past few years.

  Xie Xing looked at her with a smile, "Are you caring about me?"

  Bai Xianyu choked, and subconsciously wanted to refute, but he didn't know where to start.

Maybe it's because the current atmosphere is too harmonious. It's a coincidence that Xie Xingyun's sudden illness has actually shortened the distance between the two of them invisibly. People who are too familiar, even if they deliberately keep the distance, will inadvertently show some tacit understanding and familiarity.

   "We can be regarded as allies now. Since we are all on the same boat, it is understandable for me to care about you." Bai Xianyu said seriously: "After taking the medicine, it shouldn't be repeated, right?"

"Won't."

"That's good."

  Xie Xingyun lifted his lips, his eyes were gentle, "Thank you."

  Bai Xianyu breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had unloaded a heavy burden, and lay down facing the table, "Then go take a bath, I'm a little sleepy."

   To be precise, I was tired and sleepy, my nerves were highly tense, and I had to always be prepared to deal with emergencies. I was stretched all night, and now I could hardly hold it anymore. Just moving my mind a little bit gave me a headache.

   "Okay." Xie Xingyun glanced at her, then stood up slowly, seeing her tired look, a warm feeling suddenly surged in his heart.

  Bai Xianyu felt the man's shadow enveloping her, and her heart beat slightly faster. Just when she thought he was going to do something, the shadow disappeared.

  Xie Xingyun left.

   Before leaving, he closed the door.

Bai Xianyu was a little dazed. The moment he approached and lowered her head just now, she actually felt that Xie Xingyun wanted to hug her to rest. When she realized what she was thinking, she gently twisted her arm, "...what am I thinking about?" .”

  She will figure it out one day, and so will Xie Xingyun.

  Even if he just said that he would not leave even if she held a sword against him, isn't he just keeping a distance from her now?

  When Xie Xingyun likes someone, he will also take the initiative. In the past, if she said she was tired, he would not leave without asking anything.

   Now that he has learned restraint, maybe it is a good thing?

  Bai Xianyu thought clearly in his mind, but his chest felt a little stuffy for some reason, and the air in the room seemed to be much heavier all of a sudden.

  She had never felt that Xie Xingyun's eyes were so easy to understand.

  When hallucinations occurred, he looked at her eyes as if they were treasures, and she was the only one in his eyes. After waking up, he was indifferent, as if everything was a thing of the past.

  He doesn't care anymore.

Bai Xianyu suffocated and interrupted her thoughts. Maybe she just wasn't used to it. After she finished all this, she would find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to live in seclusion and live happily for a few years. Maybe she even forgot Xie Xingyun's name .

  Bai Xianyu lit some incense to help sleep at night, and the food and clothing costs in the imperial tomb were not much different from those in the palace. Not long after she lit it, she fell asleep.

   After half an hour, the door was gently pushed open.

  Bai Xianyu turned over, turned the quilt to his side, and continued to sleep unconsciously.

  Xie Xingyun held a box of ointment in his hand, and walked lightly to her bed. Under the dim and yellowish light, the girl's eyelashes were long and slender, trembling from time to time, like a frightened butterfly, but there was no sign of opening her eyes.

He twirled the ointment with his long fingers, and pushed it away gently on her forehead and temples. The girl seemed to feel comfortable in her dream, and she took the initiative to rub it on his hand. Like newborn cherries.
