Ji Hanshuang's expression was plain, and his already sickly pale face looked even colder, just like the snow under the sycamore tree in the courtyard, and the plain coldness.

Ji Lian's face, which was originally a little exaggerated, changed, and then he said, "Maybe if you don't believe me, I'm no longer the same as before."

Although there was seriousness in his eyes, Ji Xu couldn't help but chuckled, "That's really congratulations."

"You don't have to mock me like this." Ji Lian sat up a little. The wooden bench they were sitting on was an old object from Ji Tailin's generation. People looked very tall and energetic when they sat on it.

Ji Lian looked at Ji Xu and said calmly: "I know that many people don't like me. Since I was a child, I would steal your things. When I saw my grandfather give you those precious things, and when I wanted them, I scolded me. I didn't even dare to touch them. You know, grandfather beat people up and attacked me, but I still thought that I could be like you and let my grandfather take a look more, so I became more arrogant and arrogant, hoping to get a look more, but until my grandfather passed away, I didn't hear him call me A Lian."

Speaking of this, Ji Lian's eyes were filled with tears. He supported his hands on his legs and looked at Ji Xu, "Do you know, what do I think when grandpa called you A Xu? He would only call me Ji Lian, Ji Lian!"

Ji Han opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but still didn't say anything. Similarly, when she was a child, she also envied Ji Xu, envied him for being able to play freely, and envied him for being happy with Ji Tailin. What Ji Lian said is right now, at that time, she was not like him.

"Who can tell me clearly about what happened when I was a child? You just think that grandpa prefers me, but have you ever thought that he never regarded those antiques as treasures, but you looked at them very importantly. I never wanted them, but just curiously treat them as something to play with. Or," Ji Xu drooped his eyelids and said lightly, "If my parents are still there."

Ji Lian was choking, and he vaguely knew something about the past. Whether it was the previous generation or the Ji family who had fallen to the present, he also heard about it from Ji Shuyi's words.

"Forget it." Ji Lian looked at Ji Xu and Ji Hanshuang and said, "What was past is over. I just hope you can understand that I have really changed. I have already seen some things."

Ji Xu looked at the other party and suddenly smiled, "I hope so."

"It's time to eat."

Just as Ji Lian was about to say something again, a greeting came from the kitchen. He turned to stand up and smiled, "I will go back to the capital tomorrow. When you go in the future, I will say something, I will arrange it."

Looking at Ji Lian walking into the room, Ji Han pouted, "It's still the same."

"What's the same?" Ji Xu murmured thoughtfully, then stood up and stretched out his right hand to Ji Hanshuang, "Let's go and have a meal."

"It's true, I can't stand up." Ji Han gave Ji Xu a double look, but still handed over his hand obediently.

Ji Xu held her little cold hand and looked at each other and smiled.

In the kitchen beside him, Ji Shuyi stood in front of the window, watching the two of them move, and finally his eyes fell on Ji Xu and watched him enter the lobby. The lights spread through the wooden window, making his face light and dark, and the two deep nasolabial folds were as sharp as sword cutting.

...

Ji Xu lay on the bed, holding his cell phone and flipping through the news boredly.

Because the relationship is not harmonious, although the meal just now was not awkward, it perfectly interpreted the state of "no words to eat". In addition to the occasional sounds made by eating, the whole meal was quiet.

Ji Xu rubbed his stomach and ate it so fast that he left without eating enough. Now he is inevitably a little hungry.

After looking at the time, it was almost nine o'clock. Ji Xu got up because the old house had always been Ji Shuheng lived alone. There was no heating, and the original earth dragon had not arisen. The room he lived in was empty and very cold.

Wrapped in the cotton jacket, Ji Xu gently opened the door and walked out.

The moonlight outside was very bright, and there were light clouds in the sky. Although it was cold, there was no wind. Ji Xu sniffed, and the cold air entered his nose, making him tremble. He wanted to go to the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat.

The west wing where Ji Xu lived was not far from the kitchen. He lowered his head and walked to the tall sycamore tree. The bright moonlight was blocked and the ground became dim.

Suddenly, Ji Xu's steps stopped, his original natural breathing became tighter, and he didn't dare to let out the atmosphere. Because on the ground ahead, two bright eyes appeared, green like gems.

Ji Xu swallowed, and felt his neck tightening, and something seemed to be staring at him behind him.

Just when Ji Xu didn't know whether he should turn back, the door of the east wing made a slight sound, and then the feeling of a needle on his back disappeared immediately.

Ji Xu gasped, and the bright gem-like eyes on the ground disappeared. After walking out of the shadow under the tree quickly, Ji Xu felt that the thermal underwear he was wearing had been soaked in cold sweat.

"What are you doing here?" Ji Hanshuang asked in a low voice.

"Ah." Ji Xu let out a low voice. After seeing Ji Hanshuang coming from the east room, he patted his chest, "I'm scared to death, why are you coming out?"

Ji Hanshuang wrinkled his nose, and then said embarrassedly: "Where are you if you are not full?"

"Same."

The two looked at each other and then walked towards the kitchen. When they turned around and walked, Ji Xu turned back and looked back, and found nothing. But when he looked up inadvertently, a big black cat as dark as ink was squatting on the branch of the sycat tree more than three meters high. The moonlight projected on it through the gap between the leaves, and the pair of shiny eyes were as crystal clear as bright emeralds. Under the moonlight, a round sign was hanging faintly around the black cat's neck.

Before Ji Xu could see clearly, a gust of wind blew by, and the branches and leaves swayed slightly, and the black big cat disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"What are you looking at?" Ji Han hit Ji Xu with his shoulder and asked in a low voice.

Ji Xu returned to his senses, suppressed the surprise in his heart, and replied casually: "I didn't see anything, but I just felt that the sycamore tree was really big."

"Yes, I heard it was there for a long time ago." Ji Hanshuang did not doubt that he had him, with his hands on his back, "It was very tall when we were very young."

"Yes." Ji Xu nodded, and said nothing, but he was still confused.

The kitchen was very dark, and the two carefully closed the door. Ji Xu took out his cell phone and took advantage of the fluorescent light on the screen to find a few raw sweet potatoes.

Ji Xu smiled, took out one and shook it at Ji Hanshuang. The latter also had a smile on his face and asked in a low voice: "Can you still bake it?"
