The night was getting darker, and Xi Xian was sleeping extremely unsteadily, as if she had fallen into an endless nightmare again.Xuechun sat on the edge of the bed and re-covered the quilt she kicked off again and again, wiping off the sweat that kept pouring out of her forehead.

In the dream, her ears were full of noise, countless voices overlapped, and she couldn't hear anything clearly in the chaos.

Opening her eyes vigorously, Xi Xian regained her composure. The yarn-woven curtain was half hanging beside the bed. Through the hazy moonlight, she got up and went to the table by the moonlight.

After drinking a few cups of herbal tea, the sweat on her body disappeared, but the noise in her ears didn't diminish at all. Xi Xian pushed open the window, and the voice suddenly became clear, only then did she realize that it was not a voice from a dream.

"Why didn't my sister light a candle when she got up?" Xue Chun silently pushed the door open, saw her standing alone in the dark room, and hurriedly lit a candle.

The warm candlelight dispelled the ghosts in the darkness, and Xi Xian moved a little closer to the candlelight, as if afraid of unknown things in the darkness.

"What happened outside? Why is it so noisy?"

Xuechun pursed her lips and hesitated to speak, as if she had made a lot of determination and said, "It's Miss Xia's side. I didn't inquire carefully because I was worried about my sister, but it seems that something happened."

Xi Xian lowered her eyelashes, let out a faint breath, "Changing clothes for me, let's go and have a look."

"Let's not go, what if??" Xuechun hesitated and didn't move, what happened that night left her with lingering fears.

"What should come will always come, no matter how far you hide." Xi Xian smiled calmly, picked up the clothes on the screen and put them on.

Arriving at Xia Yingying's residence, all the people in the mansion had already blocked the entrance, Xue Chun opened a narrow path for her in front, and was able to enter smoothly.

Entering the inner room is different from the noise outside, there are only a few maidservants weeping softly, Xia Zizhao stands beside Xia Yingying who is shivering in the corner with a blue face, while Yuwen Haoxuan's face is a little erratic Confuse.

Seeing Xixian enter, the servant girl Qiu'er suddenly turned serious, and said sharply, "Why do you want to do this, Miss? Ever since you entered the mansion, the lady has always treated you like a real sister, and even took great pains to choose gifts for you. This is how you repay my family. Miss's?"

The painting she gave to Xia Yingying was scattered on the messy floor. The beautiful face in the painting was scratched several times by some sharp weapon, "How could this happen?" Xuechun picked up the painting in panic and looked at everyone.

"Then I have to ask Miss Xixian what did she do?" Qiu'er's aggressive tone was again.

Looking at Xia Yingying who was pretending to be weak in the corner, Xi Xian felt disgusted, "Yeah, what did I do? I'm afraid it was wrong for me to come here. As for whether Miss Xia treats me as a Dear sister, I think Miss Xia knows best in her heart."

After she finished speaking, she clearly saw Xia Yingying's trembling body froze slightly, but everyone was looking at her, no one noticed this detail, a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, which completely angered the sister-in-law Heartbroken Xia Zizhao.

"What did you say?" Xia Zizhao's words were like a blade, and in the next second his iron-like palms had already pressed against her slender neck, pushing her against the wall and lifting her feet three inches above the ground.

Seeing the murderous intent in Xia Zizhao's eyes, she snorted and laughed out loud. This was the second time she felt suffocated. It was less than half a year apart, but this time it was more decisive.

"Zizhao! Let go!" Suddenly she heard Yuwen Haoxuan's urgent voice, the strength in her neck suddenly disappeared, and she fell heavily on the cold ground.

While breathing, someone helped her up, and Xi Xian raised her eyes to see that Xuechun, whose face was full of tears, was already sobbing. Yuwen Haoxuan and Xia Zizhao's arms were tangled together to compete with each other. The anger in Xia Zizhao's eyes was stronger than before. He pushed Yuwen Haoxuan away a few steps with all his might, and slapped Xixian straight with his palm.

The thick internal force came over his face, Xi Xian knew that there was no way to avoid it and closed his eyes resigned to his fate, a 'poof' palm wind hit the body, but Xi Xian did not feel the expected pain, opened his eyes and saw a tall The figure stood in front of him.

"Brother Wenxuan!" After a brief silence, Xia Yingying screamed, pulling everyone back from the shock.

Yuwen Haoxuan fell down little by little, Xi Xian stepped forward to support his body that was about to hit the ground, Xia Zizhao looked at the scene in front of him guiltily, and gradually regained his sanity.

A bright red oozes from the corner of Yuwen Haoxuan's mouth, and he gives her a comforting smile, then turns to look at Xia Zizhao, "Is the fire over? Why don't you heal me?"

Xia Zizhao still had an indifferent face, but his eyes were slightly wet and he couldn't hide his shame. He swiftly took Yuwen Haoxuan's body, fed him a fragrant pill, and slowly absorbed his true energy. After a while, his complexion recovered. Five points of ruddy.

"You are really ruthless in your strikes. You have grown a lot after not seeing your skills for a few years!" Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Yuwen Haoxuan said half-jokingly.

Xia Zizhao's face turned awkward, but his expression was still calm, "It's not that I'm good at it, it's that you've regressed. You didn't use [-]% of your skills, and you got hurt like this!"

Yuwen Haoxuan smiled calmly, turned to Xixian and said, "Help me back."

Looking at the people with different expressions in the room, Xi Xian nodded with a smile, held his arm and left slowly under the gaze of everyone.

On the way, she sent Xuechun back, propped Yuwen Haoxuan back to the residence and settled on the stepping stone alone, she kept her lips tightly pressed and stubbornly kept silent, but secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes when she turned around.

"You can relax a bit in front of me." Looking at the back of her pretending to be calm, Yuwen Haoxuan felt sore in his heart, "This matter is all my fault, it's because I didn't think well enough."

"Do you believe me?" Xi Xian turned around with tears in her eyes.

"Of course, as long as you say no, I will definitely believe it." Yuwen Haoxuan looked at her with firm eyes, making her feel that the strength she had just lost was returning to her body little by little.

"Miss Xia did all this just to make you pay more attention to her. I don't think she would have thought that things would develop to this point."

"I come here to stay here for a few days every few years, and I've watched her grow up. In fact, she's not bad-hearted, but Zizhao has been spoiled too much these years."

Mentioning Xia Zi Zhao Xixuan's eyes darkened, and the scene of life and death just now reappeared in her mind, such fierce hatred made her shudder.

Seeing her resentment, Yuwen Haoxuan said, "Don't resent Zizhao. If you know his experience, you will understand why he cares about Yingying so much. I promised him that he would not tell anyone about it. , maybe one day he will tell you himself."

After hearing what he said, Xi Xian's face softened a little, but she still couldn't let go of it completely, "Even if you have difficulties, you shouldn't just listen to one side of the story and wrong others at will."

"Actually, Zi Zhaoyuan knows Yingying better than any of us. He is a smart man, and he will figure it out after he calms down. If you wait patiently, he will definitely apologize to you in two days. Don't look at his cold face. Yes, the inside might be boiling."

Xi Xian was amused by his words, and seeing her smile again, Yuwen Haoxuan lay down on the mat with peace of mind, but unexpectedly the action affected the injured part, and couldn't help but gasp.

Seeing his painful expression, Xi Xian hurriedly caressed his chest. The severe pain gradually eased under her gentle fingertips. Yuwen Haoxuan gently held her thin fingers like water onions, and slowly closed his eyes.

Xi Xian half lowered her eyelashes, let him hold her fingers tightly to her chest, feeling the solid and powerful heartbeat, a sense of security of being protected spontaneously arose.
