White Moonlight of Powerful Officials at large

Chapter 160 His Selfishness, His Indulgence, His Biasedness, and His Perverseness
After drinking a glass of wine, Wen Ning didn't feel much.

The throat is hot, and it goes down the esophagus. After swallowing it, it is also hot.

But she was still awake.

Probably because the wine glasses in the south are much smaller than those in the north.

She hesitated for a moment, and instead of pouring herself a second cup, she continued to eat and eat honestly.

It wasn't until the end of the meal that she finally felt the smell of alcohol on her head, her eyes were shaking a little, and her feet were floating a little.

But she was still sober.

So before leaving, she poured herself another glass of wine.

This time Pei You didn't stop her, she just stared at her with heavy eyes as she poured down a glass of wine, and put the glass down neatly: "Let's go!"

When the smell of alcohol is on the brain, the mind is naturally floating, and when the mind is floating, the mood will be much more relaxed.

"I don't want to go back to the official post." The voice after drinking was also soft. Wen Ning stood at the door of the restaurant, looking at the people around her with watery eyes, "I want to take a stroll and see the towns in Lingnan. What is the difference between the towns in the south of the Yangtze River, can you?"

Towns in Lingnan are of course very different from those in Jiangnan.

The water towns in the south of the Yangtze River are full of poetic and picturesque beauty; Lingnan is bordered by Fanbang, and influenced by foreign cultures, the houses have different characteristics.

Even the things sold on the street are very different.

Wen Ning was very sober, knowing that she was dressed in men's clothes, she didn't pull Pei You's sleeve, but kept a distance of three or five steps from him.

She just had a look at those gadgets, not like when she was in Jiangnan, she just wanted to buy something novel when she saw it.

A main street is not long, and she finished shopping in no time, her hands were empty, but Pei You returned with a full load.

Along the way, many people came to say hello and thank him with local characteristics. Pei Youhui would politely return the gift. Some children insisted on stuffing a few gadgets into his arms, and he couldn't refuse, so he hung them on his hands.

The main street has come to an end, and further ahead, it is very quiet.

They came in a carriage, Wen Ning didn't mention it, she just looked back at Pei You and said, "I don't know the way, you go ahead?"

Pei You glanced at her already flushed cheeks, and walked forward alone without refusing.

Wen Ning naturally followed.

After walking a few corners, she called him softly from behind: "Pei You, I'm a little tired, can we sit here for a while?"

Wen Ning sat on the steps in front of a bookstore.The door of the bookstore was naturally closed, and occasionally there was a lantern on the street. She blinked and looked at him with a faint light in her eyes.

Pei You paused.

After a moment of silence, he took a few steps back.

"Wen Ning, do you have to be here?" Her voice was calm, as was her complexion.

Wen Ning looked around, maybe he thought sitting on the ground was indecent?And although the street is quiet, it is inevitable that people will pass by.

Or... or find a deserted alley?
Wen Ning also stood up, patted the dust off her body, and burrowed into the alley on the side street.

"Wen Ning." Pei You called her from behind.

Wen Ning paused, then turned around: "Pei You, I have something to say to you."

Pei You's figure froze slightly.

There was no moonlight in this night, and there was only the low light from the main street in the alley, but he could still see the darkness in his eyes.

"I don't want to say anything to you in this kind of place." Pei You turned around and left.

"Then let's talk as we walk?" Wen Ning followed softly.

Pei You stopped again, turned around, his expression sank, and his voice also sank: "What do you want to tell me?"

Wen Ning stood where she was, and met Pei You's dark eyes, and her heart beat suddenly.

Sure enough... the wine glass was too small, she should have had two more glasses just now.

She blinked, took two steps forward, saw the straw puppet hanging on his hand, and inexplicably said something completely irrelevant to what she wanted to say: "The people in Wuxi still...love you very much."

Pei You's brows and eyes seemed to be relaxed because of this sentence, and his tone softened a little: "There are a lot of inconveniences now, when we return to Beijing, you and I..."

He paused for a moment, and cast a vague look at Wen Ning: "I will report your actions to His Majesty and reward you for your merits."

After all, turn around and move forward.

Wen Ning's head was stuck, she didn't need any rewards or not.

But when Pei You left, she had no choice but to keep up: "They love you not only because of 'congshu'. I heard from the two little girls at the door that you came to Lingnan on your own initiative, why?"

Pei You snorted very lowly: "The courtiers are all partisans, and they all only think about how to take the opportunity to bite off a piece of each other's meat. If I don't come, who do you expect?"

Then you never came in your last life...

However, Wen Ning thought about it carefully.

When the epidemic broke out in the previous life, King Rui and the fourth prince had never been in such a turmoil. In the previous life, the imperial court paid attention to it later, and it may be too late to intervene.

"Then you these days..."

Before she finished speaking, Wen Ning felt that she was talking nonsense.

He will definitely not have a good time these days, lack of food and medicine, and sickness, so what if his brain is good?Make bricks without straw.

"Pei You." Wen Ning tugged at his sleeve, "I have something else to say to you."

Pei You lowered her eyes lightly, staring at Wen Ning's hand holding her sleeve, after a moment of silence, she asked, "Wen Ning, do you have to be here?"

He raised his eyes to look at Wen Ning, the light in his eyes suddenly became sharp, and there was a trace of mockery in the corner of his mouth.

He could probably guess what she wanted to say to him.

He pulled his sleeve out of Wen Ning's hand, and walked into the alley on the side street.

"Tell me, what do you want to say?" He turned around as soon as he stepped into the alley, his voice became colder, and the mockery on his face became stronger.

After all, Wen Ning had had two glasses of wine, her mind was a little wandering, and her heart was beating fast, which was not enough for her to notice the change in Pei You's expression.

It's just that the faster her heart beats, the more she can't speak the words rolling in her throat.

Seeing her hesitant expression, Pei You knew that his guess was correct.

What can she say to him?
He broke her taboo and touched her scales.

He didn't take her wishes into consideration, and locked her in that airtight wing for more than a month.

During the last quarrel, she asked him if he wanted to imprison her. He still thought she was unbelievable and unreasonable, so he really did such a thing without turning around.

He imprisoned her.

He always knew that she knew him, but he never thought that she knew him better than himself.

She had seen through his selfishness, his indulgence, his bias, and his perverseness early on, so she feared him, repelled him, and avoided him.

What she wants to say to him now is nothing more than the same as the previous two times, to ask him to stay away from her, to ask him not to appear in front of her, and to ask him to take a piece of paper and leave the book.

The first two times she was still a little angry with him, but today she was so calm that she even drank two glasses of wine to embolden herself.

More than a month was enough for her to think clearly.

She made up her plan to get together and part ways, to intercede with him and make a clean break.

In the dark alley, Pei You's black eyes were silently covered with crimson.

He turned his face away and started to walk away.

He didn't want to listen to her say these words in this kind of place and at this time.

She drank, and he knew how sweet and soft she was after drinking.

He knows better how to coax her into being obedient after drinking.

There is no light and no sound here.

Darkness can easily hook out the darkness and evil thoughts hidden in the deepest part of people.

He couldn't guarantee what he would do to her if she angered him here.

It was indeed too dark here, so dark that Wen Ning could only see the eyes of the people in front of him getting colder and colder, and even the breath on his body was completely cold.

I only realized that he was about to leave again, and grabbed his hand again: "Wait a minute!"

"What's the matter, let's go back and talk about it." Pei You didn't look back.

"do not want!"

Going back to such a bright light, under his gaze, she couldn't even speak.

Or it was the same as last time, she was tangled in bed alone for a long time, and finally said a lot, but he fell asleep.

She really couldn't muster up the courage for a third time.

In the past, Pei You pulled Wen Ning, and Wen Ning shook off his hand.This time it was reversed, and Pei You shook off her hand without hesitation: "We'll talk about it when we go back."

Step forward.

Wen Ning turned to pull him with both hands.

She also didn't know why he was so abnormal when he heard that she had something to say. She was really resentful when she was in the official post today, so she gave him some face.

After coming out, he has been obedient and clever, wanting to have a good talk with him.

Pei You was determined to leave, and let her pull her with both hands, but he didn't even look at her, and went straight out.

Wen Ning was nervous and impatient, and had to exert her strength to hold her back, so she stood on tiptoe in desperation.

Pei You felt the mellow aroma of wine suddenly approaching, and two soft petals suddenly stuck to his Adam's apple.

The pulling in the alley suddenly stopped.

The wind passing through the alley seemed to be quiet for a while.

Wen Ning found that the touch was not right, so she sucked it lightly. This is...

She quietly opened her eyes, it seemed that Pei You was too tall, she tiptoed and only kissed his...Adam's apple?
A rush of heat rushed to her cheeks, Wen Ning didn't know whether it was the alcohol or her heartbeat was too fast, she put down her heels and took two steps back.

The person in front of her followed her steps and took two steps forward, grabbing her waist with one hand.

"Wen Ning, are you drunk?" He bullied her, his voice hoarse.

"I don't." The alley was too quiet, Wen Ning could only speak in a low voice, which was especially soft in the silent night.

Pei You's arms around her waist tightened, and she wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him down.

I can finally see clearly.

In the dark alley, she finally saw Pei You's eyes, which were no longer so black that could not be seen at a glance, but seemed to have a reddish color that would not fade away in the future.

Wen Ning stood on tiptoe again, originally wanting to kiss the lips that she missed just now, but she glanced at the small mole on the side of the nasal bone, which is usually cold, and it was so red that it was about to ooze blood. Lips touched it.

It gets redder.

Its owner's breathing was a little short, and those eyes that could see through the world were confused for a moment, and then darkened, and he leaned over to kiss her.

Wen Ning covered her lips with one hand, trying to keep his lips away.

She pushed him away a little: "you Can you let me say a few words? "

"I was not allowed to speak when I was in the official station, and I was not allowed to speak just now, where is such a hard temper?" Wen Ning's light brown eyes were full of grievances.

How did she know, the moment she opened her mouth, the smell of wine was tangy again.

Pei You had too many memories of her after drinking, and she teased him like that just now, and now he was able to stand in front of her without moving, which was already the result of his utmost restraint.

"You said."

Wen Ning only felt that Pei You's voice was a little strangely hoarse, so she turned her eyes away and didn't look at her.

She raised her face and forced her heart to beat again: "Listen well, I will only say this once, and I will never say it again."

"Yeah." Pei You's expression was extremely dull, as if the person who hugged her just now, with hot palms and messy breathing had nothing to do with him.

Wen Ning pursed her lips and took a deep breath: "I was angry with you when I was in the official post, not only because you locked me up for so long, but also because..."

She looked at Pei You, paused for a moment, and her eyes were filled with grievance, "Pei You, you care about my life, and I care about your life too."

"You don't come to see me for ten and a half months, and you don't let outsiders pass on the news. Tell me, are you a bastard?"

Wen Ning's eyes were a little red.

She was alone in the room, feeling resentful and angry, but most of all, she was afraid.

She was afraid that there would be no sound outside, as if she was the only living person in the entire official post.

She was afraid that the day she went out, the whole of Lingnan would be the same as in her previous life, with corpses everywhere.

She is still afraid...

He held resentment towards her until his death, not knowing her intentions.

"I haven't thought about reconciling with you, at least I haven't thought about it yet. Don't you call yourself 'smart'? Why do you even believe that kind of market rumors?"

Wen Ning glared at Pei You fiercely.

For some reason, she was very annoyed when she heard Pei You talk about "He Li Shu".

With his brain, how could he not think clearly?Even if he asked his group of hidden guards to check it out?

"Also." Wen Ning grabbed Pei You's collar with one hand, and pulled him down, "Don't say anything about what you love and don't ask for much, and no one plans for you, I don't like to hear it! "

"Don't you love the Wangs? Don't you love Wangguizhuang? Don't you love the schools in Jiangnan? Don't you love the people in Lingnan? Don't you love the country of Dayin?"

Obviously a passionate person, but he wants to act as if he is unfeeling.

Will the couple who don't love Wang be so persistent in finding the murderer?If you don't love Wangguishan, will you hug Douding so affectionately?Students in Jiangnan who don't love the school in Jiangnan, will they work tirelessly to give lectures for them?People who don't love Lingnan, will they take such a thankless job at the risk of their own lives?If you don't love Dayin's country, why do you enter the court and become an official? !
This more than a month is enough for Wen Ning to think about and see many things clearly.

Jumping out of the original vicious circle, it turns out that everything is so clear.

The one whose eyes were captivated was clearly the self in the previous life.

"I don't know about other people, but..." Wen Ning pulled Pei You down even more, her voice was unconsciously soft, and she looked at the person in front of her with all her heart, "Pei You, I care about your life and death, and I am willing to plan for you ,I……"

Wen Ning suddenly choked up.

Pei Youzao is not the same as before, the eyebrows are still the same pair of eyebrows, the person is still the same person, but it seems to be different from the inside out.

His brows and eyes are unbelievably soft, and he is looking at the person in front of him; the bottom of his eyes seems to be filled with stars, shining brightly and rippling.

"You what?" He held Wen Ning's face, looked into her eyes, "Say it."

"I..." Wen Ning murmured, as if bewitched by the light in his eyes, she finally broke free from the last shackles, "I... love you."

Gently tiptoeing, kissed the long-missed lips.

Wen Ning thought that it would take a long time for her to forget the shadows of her previous life.

She has been desperately telling herself that Pei You in this life is different from Pei You in her previous life, trying to distinguish them as two people.

Not right.

Her initial direction was wrong.

What she has to do is not to forget, not to distinguish, but to accept.

Pei You is such a person.

Although he in this life is somewhat different from him in his previous life, they are still the same person in essence.

They are equally clever and cunning, equally strategic, and equally unscrupulous, surly and arrogant.

They also have the same tough temper, they lose their temper and ignore her, they don't allow her to talk and don't talk to her; they are also cold and sensitive, they stand up with thorns all over their bodies after touching a nail once, so as not to let themselves be hurt again; even they are the same... In extreme circumstances, she will be imprisoned.

It's just that she saw him in this life.

She knew that he kept her in the room because he was worried that she would contract the epidemic, and that he did not allow others to have more contact with her to reduce her risk of infection.

What about the previous life?
Is it because of the murderer who is nowhere to be found, the cages that are everywhere, and the pursuers that follow, because of those eyes staring at "Xiaoya"?
What happened in the previous life is unknown.

"Pei You..." Wen Ning pecked Pei You's lips twice, let him go, and said softly, "In the future, when encountering such a thing, you are not allowed to make your own decisions. You must discuss everything with me, you know?"

Pei You used to not be afraid of the heat, even in summer, he was always refreshed, but now there was thin sweat on his forehead, as soon as Wen Ning let go, he leaned closer again: "Yes."

He turned his head and still wanted to kiss her.

The answer was too perfunctory, and I don't know if he listened to it or not.

Wen Ning avoided his lips, and pushed him away with the strength of alcohol: "Re-say what you said in the inn! Are you wrong?"

Pei You was stunned for a moment, regained his senses a little, and finally softened his tone: "Wen Ning, how could you be let out in that situation? Even if the situation improved later, whether it was me, Wen Lan, or He Luan, we still had to contact each other every day. A large number of patients. When you come out, do you intend to follow me, or do you ignore your elder brother and sister-in-law? Although there are bushes, there are still weak people who will die of illness, you..."

Before Pei You could finish speaking, Wen Ning raised her head and kissed him actively.

Forget it, stop listening.

It's over, what can I do?

The biggest difference in this life actually lies in her.

Who made her... fall in love with Pei You?

In the silent official station, as if she was the only one left in the world, she thought, if Pei You caught the epidemic outside, if she was locked in this corner of the room, it would be inevitable...

What a pity.

He didn't even see Pei You for the last time.

Is it different from the previous life? Before she died in the previous life, how could she want to see him again?
That being the case, why bother to resist?

In the future, who knows.

Wen Ning gently touched Pei You's lips.If he has a tough temper, she should be softer. If he is surly, she should be there to persuade him. If he uses unscrupulous methods, she should control the direction more and let his methods be used in the right direction.

How else could it be?
Head-to-head confrontation will only hurt both sides.

He's pulling out his thorns too, making changes for her, isn't he?
Wen Ning touched Pei You's lips, left, touched again, and left again, so pure that there were no impurities, she really just wanted to "kiss" comfortingly.

But Pei You didn't hug his little girl for a few months, and even once thought that he really wanted to give her and Li Shu. How could such a gentle taste be enough?

Wen Ning felt that she was very serious, and her neck was sore from kissing him, but a bad-tempered person is a bad-tempered person, so she gave a "tsk" impatiently after a few kisses.

"You won't, I'll teach you."

His voice became hoarse again, and he bit her upper lip while holding the back of her head.

It's not a bite, it's a gentle bite with your teeth.

Wen Ning opened her mouth subconsciously, and her lips and teeth were sealed, and they were inseparable from each other.
