The sky is dark, and the lights are on in the castle all the year round.

The yellow light of the bedroom shone on the fingers, and the fingertips were wet, as if glowing with a seductive honey color.

Wen Qing stared blankly at her fingers, and after a while, she regained her senses, and her cheeks suddenly flushed red.

What is he doing? !

Wen Qing didn't know what she was thinking just now.

Just lick the jam, how can you lick your fingers? !

Thinking about it, a dry feeling rose in his heart, and he quickly wiped his hands on the handkerchief, wiping it hard.

Don't stop until your fingertips turn red.

Wen Qing blushed, poured two glasses of cold water, and calmed down a little, she was very glad that the housekeeper was not there just now.

He lifted his eyelids, looked at the door on the right, and when he looked up, he saw himself in the mirror.

Sitting on the chair, tilted his head, he looked indifferent in the mirror, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and his cheeks were not red at all.

Wen Qing froze for a moment, then raised his hand to touch his face.

Is it not hot?

Wen Qing pursed her lips and looked at the mirror.

"Click" With a sound, the door was pushed open.

The butler is back.

He went straight to the table, stood beside Wen Qing, lowered his head, looked at the slightly water-stained handkerchief, his eyes flashed with blue light.

"Madam, do you want to leave the castle now?"

Wen Qing tilted her head and looked at the sky outside the window. It was slightly brighter than in the morning, but overall it was still dark.

He couldn't help but ask, "Will it rain?"

The housekeeper said calmly, "It won't rain."

Wen Qing snorted and continued to ask the housekeeper, "Is there anything dangerous outside the castle?"

The butler picked up the tea cup, poured water for him, and said calmly, "There are many people outside the castle."

Wen Qing: "I'm asking what's the danger—"

The voice was abrupt, and the housekeeper must know what he was asking.

Just answering his question.

There are people outside the castle, and people are dangerous.

Wen Qing was stunned for a while, if the danger is a human being

He thought about it for a while, then asked in a low voice, "Are those people bad?"

The butler didn't speak, looked at him quietly, the light in his eyes flickered a little faster.

Wen Qing inexplicably understood, the housekeeper was laughing at him.

After a moment of silence, he asked again, "Isn't he a bad guy?"

The butler still did not speak.

Wen Qing looked at his expressionless face and tried to ask in a different way, "What are those people like?"

The housekeeper calmly spit out two words: "human-like."

Wen Qing: "..."

"What about the others?"

The butler did not speak again.

Wen Qing pursed her lips, no longer bothered about what people outside were like,

He asked, "If we're going out, do we need to prepare anything?"

The housekeeper half-closed his eyes, as if thinking.

After a long while, he said slowly, "Me."

Wen Qing: "???"

Butler: "You need to prepare me."

Wen Qing: "???"

He was stunned, this robot can still say earthy words?

Seeing his shock, the housekeeper explained, "I can take good care of the lady."

Wen Qing did not doubt this.

He leaned back in the chair, raised his head slightly, and looked up and down at the butler.

The butler was about 1.9 meters tall, about the same height as Sikong. He was wearing a black tuxedo, stern, only showing his hands.

Although his hands have the same bone structure as human beings, they are silver and can be seen as non-human at a glance.

Wen Qing thought to herself, the human words of robots always need energy to run.

Just from the outside, he couldn't see what the butler needed.

After pondering for a while, Wen Qing asked, "Would you like to go get some gas and recharge?"

The housekeeper lowered his eyes and looked at him silently, the blue under his eyes seemed to freeze and no longer flicker.

"unnecessary."

Wen Qing snorted dryly: "Then what do you need to charge?"

The butler did not speak.

Can't say this.

Wen Qing murmured in her heart, stopped asking the housekeeper, and turned to 001: [Is it alright if I leave the castle? 】

Although this mission did not explicitly say that he would stay in the castle, Wen Qing was still a little worried. What if 001 left him at his own risk if he went out.

001 repeated the main mission and advanced mission: [Main mission: Survive. 】

[Advanced task: Take the three young masters out of the castle. 】

Wen let out a sigh of relief, no problem.

He glanced at the time, it was already twelve o'clock noon.

If you go out now, it might be too late to come back.

Wen Qing hesitated for a moment and said to the housekeeper, "Let's go out tomorrow morning."

The butler replied, "Yes."

The next morning, before the housekeeper and Asha came in, Wen Qing woke up.

He stood in front of the closet, getting dressed quickly.

When she was almost dressed, Wen Qing walked to the mirror and looked in the mirror.

Clothes are a little crooked.

Wen Qing lowered his head and looked carefully, a button on the hem of his shirt was crooked.

He unbuttoned and re-tie.

When the pulp of the finger touched the soft flesh around the waist, he couldn't help but press down.

Wen frowned slightly, fastened his buttons, and raised his hand to look at his fingers.

Something seems wrong with him?

The moment he put on his shoes, the butler walked in.

He glanced at Wen Qing's clothes, took out a black cloak from the closet and put it on Wen Qing.

Wen Qing looked at the fur collar on the edge of the cloak and was stunned: "It's not cold today."

"It's cold outside." The housekeeper lowered his eyes and carefully tied the straps of his cloak for him.

Wen Qing wanted to take a look at the mirror, but the mirror was blocked by the housekeeper's body.

He glanced at the housekeeper's blue eyes and said, "Let's go."

Passing the rose bush, saw Lily squatting on the ground, looking like she was still looking for a brooch.

Wen Qing paused, and was about to speak, when Lily saw him, she bent down and said, "Madam, the brooch has not been found."

Wen nodded lightly and said to her, "don't look for it."

Lily's face changed, and she said quickly, "Madam, I will find it as soon as possible."

Knowing that she had misunderstood, Wen Qing added: "I've found it, you don't have to look for it, go and do other things."

Lily breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "Yes."

Seeing Wen Qing and the housekeeper walking straight forward, Lily hesitated for a moment, but stepped forward and reminded in a low voice, "Madam, please don't get too close to Rose."

Wen Qing said casually, "I'm going out with the housekeeper."

Lily stopped abruptly and looked at Wen Qing in surprise. She opened her mouth to say something, but when she saw the housekeeper who was following closely, she closed her mouth again and said, "Yes."

The stables were to the south, and Wen Qing followed the housekeeper, only to discover the difference in the scenery to the south of the castle.

Besides the rambling roses, there was a separate garden with tables and chairs that the maids were wiping down. The stable is in a separate house, very quiet, no horse neighing.

Wen Qing walked to the door and realized why it was so quiet.

Sikong was standing inside, holding green grass in his hand, feeding a black horse.

He glanced at the door casually, and chuckled, "Where are you going?"

Wen Qing paused, pinched his palms, and said to him, "Get ready to go out for a walk."

Sikong's expression remained unchanged, obviously knowing this.

He waved the green grass in his hand, and the dark horse in the compartment opened his mouth cautiously and took a bite of the grass.

Sikong didn't say anything not allowed to go out, but asked, "Are you good at horseback riding?"

Wen Qing was worried that he would use the excuse of not being able to ride a horse to stop him. He pinched his palm and nodded, "Yes."

The butler glanced at him and said nothing.

Sikong nodded, pulled out the dark horse in the compartment, and walked towards Wen Qing.

Wen Qing resisted the urge to avoid Sikong, stood there, watched Sikong walk in front of him, and handed over the reins.

Wen Qing raised his hand to pick it up, Sikong didn't give him the reins directly, but held his hand.

The back of his hand was chilly, as if the chill was about to get into his bones.

Wen Qing didn't dare to avoid his hand, she bent her fingers and hooked the reins in Sikong's hand.

Sikong lowered his eyes, rubbed his fingertips against the delicate skin on the back of his hand, and said softly, "Be careful when you go out."

The housekeeper took a step forward and calmly said to Sikong, "Don't bother Eldest Young Master."

"I will take good care of Mrs."

Wen Qing pursed her lips and asked Sikong following the topic: "Are you going out together?"

"No," Sikong bent his lips, turned sideways, leaned in front of Wen Qing, and gently kissed his forehead, "I'll wait for you at home."

Wen Qing's body froze, and the place where Sikong kissed was also chilly.

Sikong raised his hand and touched the horse's back, and said to Wen Qing, "Go early and return early."

"Mother."

Wen Qing grasped the reins and wanted to go out, but Si Kong stood in front of him and asked lightly, "Aren't you going to get on the horse?"

Wen Qing's eyelids twitched, and she immediately said, "Come on."

He stood on the side of the horse, looked at the stirrups, put his foot on it, and rode hard on the back.

It is not difficult to get on a horse, it is rare how to ride a horse.

Wen Qing tightened the reins, not knowing what to do.

Sikong looked at his stiff movements and said slowly, "Mother's horsemanship is not good, or—"

Before he finished speaking, the housekeeper stepped forward, jumped on the horse, and sat behind Wen Qing.

Seeing this, the smile on Sikong's lips faded by two points, and he looked at the housekeeper coldly: "Madam, can you touch something like you?"

The butler said lightly, "I'm sorry, ma'am."

Wen Qing said dryly, "It's okay."

The housekeeper glanced at Sikong again, and said slowly, "I want to take care of my wife."

"Or does the eldest young master want to go out together?"

Sikong's face darkened.

The housekeeper retracted his gaze, did not wait for Sikong to respond, took the reins in Wen Qing's hand, and pulled gently.

The black horse neighed and ran away from the stable.

Wen Qing didn't dare to look back at Sikong, and looked forward eagerly.

The first time he rode a horse, he thought it was fun at first, but after being bumped for a while, it was no fun.

How uncomfortable it is to sit.

Wen Qing couldn't help but keep adjusting her sitting position.

Suddenly, the butler's voice sounded in my ears: "Relax."

Wen Qing replied, thinking that he was very relaxed.

In the next second, a icy piece covered his thigh and slowly moved down: "Let the leg relax and sag naturally."

"So does the knee."

Coolness penetrated his pants and covered his skin.

Wen Qing's right leg was a little cold and itchy, and she hurriedly followed the housekeeper's words and sag naturally.

The butler did not let go.

Wen Qing couldn't help but move.

The housekeeper said again, "Let your legs relax."

Wen Qing responded vaguely and said slowly, "It's still a little uncomfortable."

He wanted to tell the butler to take his hand away, but before he could say the first word, the butler said, "Relax your shoulders."

The voice fell, the butler's body leaned forward slightly, clinging to his back, and the cool breath drilled inward along the collar.

Wen Qing shrank his neck, put a big hand against his chin, and slowly lifted it up: "Keep your head up."

"lady."

The butler's thumb rested on his cheek, rubbing gently with the motion that made him look up.

Wen Qing's face was a little itchy, and her legs were still itchy.

Adjusting your posture is indeed not as uncomfortable as before.

He immediately said to the housekeeper, "You can let go of your hand."

"Yes." The housekeeper responded, raised the hand on Wen Qing's leg, and held the reins.

He raised both hands, trapping Wen Qing in his arms.

There is not much space in the saddle, and Wen Qing can only lean on the housekeeper.

As the dark horse ran, his cheek brushed against the butler's chin from time to time.

The butler's skin feels exactly like a real person.

Wen Qing's cheeks were slightly red, and she quickly turned her attention to the roses around her.

They had been riding for quite some time, and there were still plenty of roses around, but red roses were rare, mostly other colors.

Wen Qing looked back at the castle again.

The castle has become a small black spot in the field of vision.

But they haven't left the castle's territory.

Wen Qing's eyes darkened. After such a long journey, even if Xiao Jiyu and the others agreed to leave with him, they might regret it halfway through.

After a long time, Wen Qing finally arrived at a place without roses.

There are no fences, walls or anything like that, it's a forest.

A group of soldiers in armor and weapons walked along the edge of the forest in an orderly manner.

After seeing Wen Qing and the housekeeper, they stopped, bowed in unison, and continued to patrol.

After entering the forest, the temperature dropped abruptly by several degrees, which was different from that in the castle.

If it is spring in the castle, this deep forest is the temperature of cold autumn.

Wen lightly shrank his neck and put on the cap of his cloak.

Suddenly, a warm feeling came from behind him, sticking to his back, and the whole back was warm.

Wen Qing's face changed slightly, her eyes widened: "Housekeeper, are you broken?!"

The housekeeper was silent for a moment: "No."

"Don't Madam feel cold?"

Wen Qing froze for a moment: "Can your body temperature change?"

"Okay." The butler replied.

He lowered his eyes, looked at Wen Qing's small white chin, and asked in a low voice, "Does Madam feel hot enough?"

"I can still heat up a little more."
