The wind at night was a little cooler, not as hot as the day.

The breeze blew, the bells on the silver threads jingled, the lanterns covered with white gauze shone softly, and the whole house looked beautiful and warm.

Although the "cage" made of silver wire wrapped around the bedpost by the window looked a bit incongruous, the people in the cage seemed to fit the relaxed atmosphere.

Li Ruoshui lay on his side on the bed, propped his head up and looked at the person on the opposite couch.

At this time, the moon was just hanging in front of the window, and her shadow was blurred on the opposite wall. The occasional wind blew the skirt into waves, and the light shadow couldn't help but cast on the person.

The cage pulled out by Yinsi was also squarely reflected on the wall. At first glance, it seemed that Lu Zhiyao was trapped in the cage and her.

Li Ruoshui didn't notice that Lu Zhiyao closed her eyes and moved in. Now she is only curious.

She didn't think that Lu Zhiyao suddenly alienated her because of some bloody reasons, and she didn't plan to guess.

After all, Sing Jiao's mind, guessing is good luck, not guessing is normal, if you guess wrong, it may be self-defeating.

Now is not a moment of crisis, and she doesn't need to use her own guesses to predict his next behavior.

She just wanted to see how long Lu Zhiyao could hold back from sticking to her.

The mesh-like silver wire decorated with bells blocked his sight, cut his figure into small pieces, and Lu Zhizhi lay motionless on the opposite couch, making it difficult to see.

Is he asleep?

Certainly not.

Li Ruoshui was so bored that he asked and answered himself, and then sighed deeply, trying to get his attention.

"so boring."

There was no movement on the other side, and it seemed that he was really asleep.

"It's still early, do you want to read a book together?"

Li Ruoshui sent an invitation again. Unlike the previous silence, Lu Zhi's fingers moved slightly, and he sat up and looked at her quietly.

After the two stared at each other for a long time, he suddenly raised the corners of his lips, got up and walked over.

Li Ruoshui stood up and sat up instantly, patted the empty space beside him, and looked at him with bright eyes.

Under the expectant gaze of Li Ruoshui, Lu Zhizhi sat on the foot.

"It's too dark now, reading books hurts your eyes, I'm here to accompany you."

It was originally an excuse, but now that he said that, it was rejecting her.

Li Ruoshui lay back again, she pulled Lu Zhiyao's black hair into her hands from the gap, and started to braid it very boringly.

I didn't feel anything before, and I would complain that he was hugging too tightly, but now I'm not used to it, and I always feel that no posture is right.

But Li Ruoshui didn't want to force Lu Zhiyao to do what he didn't want to do, so he sighed softly and stretched his right hand out of the silver net to his chest.

"Okay, then you can wait until I fall asleep. I don't seem to be able to sleep without you."

Li Ruoshui is indeed a big-hearted person. She stirred the hair in front of Lu Zhizhi, looked at the eyelashes exposed when he turned his head slightly, and slowly fell asleep.

...

The fingers no longer stirred, just hanging on the chest like this, and there was a long breathing sound behind him.

She really fell asleep.

Lu Zhiyao breathed a long sigh of relief, then turned to look at her.

Li Ruoshui was close to the bed, her face was peaceful, and she slept well at first sight, but if she moved further, her face would touch the taut silver threads.

Suzhou is rich in silk, and this puppet thread was specially customized by his master. It is very tough. If it is pulled with force, it may be injured.

Lu Zhiyao looked down at her with endless love in his eyes, but he couldn't show it, and he didn't dare to add any more.

Just like a dam that has reached a critical point, as long as there is one more drop of water, everything that has been built with great difficulty will be washed away.

He raised her outstretched arm, pulled the silver wire away, and slowly put it back to her.

The silk thread was sharp, and a bloodstain was drawn from his fingertips, and the dark red blood beads rushed out like one after another.

Lu Zhiyao lowered his eyes and smiled lightly. He leaned his head lightly on the silver net, most of his face was hidden in the shadows, and only Li Ruoshui was in his eyes.

"I love you……"

After murmuring like he was talking to himself, he wiped the blood beads from his fingertips on her lips, stroked every line, and dyed it bright red.

After a while, he retracted his hand, stretched out the tip of his tongue and licked the blood on his fingertips, his eyes curved like a crescent moon, full of a gentle smile.

"So sweet."

But this is far from enough.

He stretched out his hand again to widen the gap in the silver net, ignoring the scratches on his arm, and leaned over Li Ruoshui.

The bell on the silver net vibrated, but it failed to stop him or wake her up.

A lot of long hair was still caught between the nets from Lu Zhi, but as he leaned over, the tangled long hair also slid down.

He didn't dare to do too much, he only dared to gently rub her lips, sipping the blood from them.

The night can cover up all **, but it will also nourish and grow.

He thought he could hold on for a long time, but he didn't expect it to last only one day.

How long can he last like this?

The bells kept ringing, and the low-pitched laughter continued, but none of these could wake the man who was sleeping soundly.

"I love you..."

The almost cursed murmur rang out in the night, over and over again, not daring to speak loudly, for fear of awakening someone.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Ruoshui, who had slept well last night, woke up in the coolness.

The morning in Suzhou was far from being so cool. She sat up and looked aside with some doubts.

Not far from the head of her bed, there was an ice brick, square and air-conditioned.

Although she wasn't very sure about the productivity here, ice cubes should be in short supply.

... No wonder she slept so well this morning and didn't even sweat much.

Li Ruoshui looked to the side, there was no one on the couch, and the quilt was folded to one side, it looked like he had been up for a long time.

She lay back in peace, the little black room was not torture for her, it was clearly serving, she just needed to lie on the bed.

But still have to talk to him today, let's go to take care of the yard together, plant some flowers and plants, set up vines or something.

Li Ruoshui didn't feel the pain of being imprisoned at all. She turned to look at Yinwang next to her, and raised her eyebrows in confusion.

"Um?"

The small bells dotted on the net were motionless, entangled by something.

She took a closer look, pulled out a few long hairs from the bell, and then unconsciously touched her head.

Could it be that she moved around last night and accidentally got stuck on it?

Thinking of the pain of having so many strands of hair ripped off, Li Ruoshui couldn't help but feel the pain for himself last night.

Fortunately, she fell asleep without consciousness.

The door was pushed open with a squeak, Lu Zhiyao walked in with his eyebrows bent, and put the dinner plate in his hand on the table.

Before Li Ruoshui could say anything to him, he walked over and removed the entire bank.

Strings of silver bells fell to the ground, flicked on the ground a few times, and then they didn't move, and then piled up in the corner of the wall.

Li Ruoshui: ?

Did you think about it?

"Are you feeling better now? Do you want to close it again, I can actually lie down for a few more days."

Li Ruoshui looked at his expression and said this sentence, she felt that she still had to vent her emotions, and it would be easy to hurt herself after being blocked for a long time.

"This is easy to hurt and inconvenient. It is better to use this."

He was wearing a sash on his hand, and the fabric looked smooth and soft at first glance.

"This is a silk buckle. It's not easy to untie or cut, but it's soft and won't hurt anyone."

After Lu Zhiyao explained a few words, he stood in front of her, and he leaned over to tie it for her.

"This silk button is of high quality, and it is not easy to solve with a special tying method. After this period of time has passed, you can use this piece of fabric to make a small coat."

The tone of his explanation was still soft, but there was still a distance of about half an arm's length between the two.

Li Ruoshui looked at his drooping eyelashes, which covered his eyelids long, making it difficult to see his mind.

This Ayako is her favorite goose-yellow color. It doesn't look like a bondage tied to her hand, but rather like a decoration for her.

And the other end of the ornament was on Lu Zhi's wrist.

He stubbornly wanted to use this to connect the two of them, but he was half an arm away from her, so he didn't take a step forward...

Li Ruoshui still hasn't figured out the contradiction between them.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you so far away from me?"

If you can't figure it out, just ask. You don't need so many twists and turns to deal with the road. Asking directly is the most effective way.

Lu Zhiyao was bending over to fasten silk buttons for her, and when he heard her question, he raised his eyes to look at her.

The ends of his eyes are slightly upturned, and he can't see it when he looks up or down, but now he can see it clearly when he looks down.

The raised end of his eyes lowered the softness in his eyes, but inexplicably brought a bit of aggression and some feelings she couldn't tell.

Before he could answer, Li Ruoshui lowered his head and kissed him.

"I don't ask you anymore, are you happier now?"

"...Well." Lu Zhizhi fastened his buttons, answered lightly, and led her to the dressing table.

"I'll help you comb your hair."

Li Ruoshui looked at him in the mirror, the corners of his lips could not help bending, and a clear laughter escaped from his mouth.

"Okay, since you did it, I'll keep it no matter what it looks like today."

Lu Zhizhi's fingertips gently brushed her hair, occasionally looking at her in the mirror, her technique was a little unfamiliar, but she was able to comb it well,

"It's so powerful, it can't be secretly practiced."

Li Ruoshui just wanted to encourage him to praise him, but he didn't think he really got his answer.

"Practice at night."

He hadn't been able to sleep much lately at night, and he had nothing to do, so he had to practice these.

Li Ruoshui gave him a meaningful look, and then spoke.

"My bed will always reserve a place for you, come at night if you want, don't hold back."

Lu Zhiyao chuckled and inserted the hairpin into her hair.

"Then tonight."

Li Ruoshui nodded, this half was actually nodding and complimenting him for his self-control. She really didn't expect him to be able to hold on until now.

Li Ruoshui tied his left hand, and Lu Zhiyao tied his right. After breakfast, the two went to the yard, where there were many flower pots.

...

When she woke up in the morning, ice bricks had been placed in the room, and looking at the water accumulated under the ice bricks, it should have been a long time.

And the flowers in the yard, which were not there yesterday afternoon, are now all piled up here.

I don't know how long Luyao slept in the end.

Li Ruoshui turned to look at him, her tone was no longer joking like this morning, and her expression also looked serious.

"No matter what you think, you must sleep with me tonight and in the future."

Lu Zhiyao used to have a very light sleep, and he could wake up with a little disturbance. In fact, he didn't get enough sleep, but after being with her, he felt much better, and he would stay in bed with her.

The diet and sleep she managed to correct can't be ruined in these few days.

Lu Zhiyao was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled: "Okay."

"That's right."

Li Ruoshui smiled and turned to look at the flowers in the flowerpot, planning to transplant them into the yard.

Although Bai Qingren is not very good, her taste is really in line with her, and she also likes the feeling of flowers blooming all year round.

"This grape vine is good to be inserted into the soil, and if it is well raised, it will be able to eat grapes next year.

You often go to teahouses to listen to books. Have you heard the legend that you can hear the Cowherd and Weaver Girl talking under the vines on Qixi Festival? "

"There are also gardenias. Picking some and drying them to make tea is also very fragrant."

"Now that a plum tree is planted, it may be able to bear plums to make wine in winter. Then we will not only have flowers, but also food throughout the year."

Li Ruoshui pointed it out the same way and kept talking, as if the beautiful scenes she said would appear in the yard soon.

There was a goose-yellow silk cloth between the two. Wherever she went, he went there. She looked at flowers, he looked at her.

Lu Zhiyao's gentle gaze fell on her, and that gaze seemed to be so gentle that it was about to drip.

Feeling throbbing, he reached out and pressed the wound on his fingertips, forcing his mind to calm down.

Although he verbally said that he was going to imprison Li Ruoshui, the one being held is still Lu Yuan.

The bound Ayako was still entangled in his heart, and no one could untie it.

He looked at Li Ruoshui's back, biting the tip of his tongue, pressing the surging affection in his heart, and locking the love that was about to leak in his eyes.

i love you i love you i love you...

Everything just turned into a sentence, rolled over the tip of his tongue, but didn't make a sound.

Li Ruoshui carried a pot of Bai Tan, which had not yet budded, to him, with a surprise in his eyes.

"I have a hunch that the Bai Tan I raised must be the same as the one behind your waist.

In this way, you will no longer think of Bai Qingqing, that flower is not for Chu Xuan, but for yourself! "

Lu Zhiyao looked down at her, smiled softly, with a faint obsession, she didn't seem to notice anything strange.

But he knew that there was a place in his heart that was screaming, expressing his love in a twisted way, but he didn't dare to say it.

"Where do you want to plant?"

Li Ruoshui turned his head to look elsewhere, but still put the flower down.

"The epiphyllum is difficult to grow, so plant it in a pot for the time being, and transplant it when I'm ready."

"Okay."

The places where the arms and back were cut by the silver wire were still oozing blood, and the pain was fine and long.

Those were just insignificant small wounds. They healed quickly, but with a slight movement, they slowly opened, and a little bit of blood was revealed.

It seems that he loves her more every day, and he can only rely on these small wounds to heal his fluctuating mood.

A small part of the attention was diverted, but the rest still started screaming.

i love you i love you i love you...

Feelings are out of control, and even if a small part is transferred, the remaining love will continue to spread.

He looked at Li Ruoshui's figure who turned and left, stretched out his hand and pulled out the dagger tied to his leg, and slashed lightly in the palm of his hand, as if to reward his restraint and as if to alert him.

His hands were shaking, he looked at Li Ruoshui with a smile, and hid his hands behind him.

The tenderness of his brows and eyes were concealed, revealing his morbid smile.

I love you so much, don't leave me.

She is his god, but now he can only pray silently, only wishing that his voice could reach her.
