The sky was gloomy and covered with dark clouds, as if the whole world was shrouded in darkness. With bursts of thunder, heavy rain poured down from the sky, hitting the ground mercilessly.

At this moment, in the dilapidated temple, Li Zhiyu was looking at the rain curtain with a blank expression. The uneasiness in her eyes meant that she could not accept what she was facing now.

"How could it be like this... How could it be like this... It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be..."

Li Zhiyu couldn't accept the fact no matter what.

First, her favorite Xiao Mo married another woman. Before she could feel sad, her father was arrested for being involved in the case. If his father hadn't told Chang Ming in advance, he might have been imprisoned as well.

How did things come to this? !

Chang Ming walked in from the door in a state of embarrassment, then lowered his head and knelt near Li Zhiyu, and said sadly.

"Miss, I have told my subordinates to get you out of Kyoto safely. Don't worry, my subordinates and others will protect you to the death!"

After Chang Ming finished speaking, the three remaining men behind him also knelt down and nodded repeatedly.

"This subordinate is determined to follow you to the death!"

No matter how others insulted and despised Li Xun, his subordinates respected him very much. Especially Chang Ming, Li Xun was kind to him in saving his life and being kind to him.

It's a pity that Li Zhiyu didn't listen to these sincere words. She wandered for a while and suddenly stood up with an excited expression.

"That's right! I'm looking for Brother Mo, and Brother Mo will help me! He will definitely help me!"

Chang Ming frowned, remembering Li Xun's previous evaluation of Xiao Mo, "Miss, the master said that King Yi is very thoughtful and is not as close as he seems. If you go, you will probably return without success. .”

Even though Xiao Mo's marriage had made Li Zhiyu sad and despairing for a long time, when he heard someone slandering his sweetheart like this, Li Zhiyu still reflexively cursed.

"You are not allowed to say that to Brother Mo! I grew up with him and know him best. He is the gentlest person in the world! If I ask him, he will definitely help me! He...will definitely help me. My father rescued me!"

Tsunayomi let out a long sigh.

impossible. Nowadays, the situation in Kyoto is tense, the wind is trembling, and everything is in danger. King Yi is crazy to help the young lady save the master...

Chang Ming and others tried to dissuade him again and again, but unfortunately Li Zhiyu couldn't listen. In the end, they had no choice but to help Li Zhiyu make an appointment with Xiao Mo to meet.

Chang Ming thought: "It would be good to let the young lady meet King Yi, no matter how hard she gives up. I just hope that King Yi will not hurt the young lady because of our friendship since childhood."

However, Li Zhiyu looked down at the small bottle tightly clutched in her palm, nodded with determination, and then looked expectantly at the mist outside.

She believed that Brother Mo would definitely help her...

The heavy rain didn't stop until the evening. Su Xiang always felt uneasy when looking at the foggy sky.

The truth about Lin's case came to light, and Lin Xueman's parents and clan members were finally cleared of their grievances.

This should have been a good thing, but until now, Lin Xueman has not appeared. Where did he go? Will you hide secretly...to remember your loved ones?

Su Xiang couldn't help but think of the dream he had before. In the dream, Lin Xue stood secretly in the wind and snow, feeling lonely, neither happy nor sad. There was no one around him...

Thinking of this, Su Xiang's heart tightened slightly.

She pursed her lips and thought for a moment, then finally raised her head and shouted: "Gao Lan, take me to a place."

When Gao Lan walked in and heard the address that Su wanted to tell, he couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly.

Half an hour later, outside the general's mansion.

As soon as Su Xiang poked her head out of the carriage, Gao Lan came over with an umbrella and carefully helped her out of the carriage.

"Miss, it's raining heavily, please watch your step."

"understood."

Su Xiang helped Gao Lan get out of the carriage, then asked the coachman to wait for her elsewhere, and then looked around casually.

There were only a few houses near the General's Mansion, and the rain was coming down hard and fast, so there was no one on the street.

At this time, even if Su wanted to enter and leave the general's mansion, no one would notice.

Gao Lan stood next to Su Xiang, looking at the outline of the General's Mansion in the rain, feeling mixed emotions for a moment.

Since Lin's case, she couldn't remember how long it had been since she came to the General's Mansion.

The General's Mansion, which used to be lively and full of vitality, now has no atmosphere of human life, only the rows of cold memorial tablets in the ancestral hall...

As soon as the two of them approached the door of the General's Mansion, the door was suddenly opened. Lin Qi stood in the rain, looked at Su Xiang and the two of them, and said hello.

"Second Miss, you are here."

Su Xiang was not surprised to see him, and her eyelashes trembled, "You knew I would come?"

"The young lady has always been protected by secret guards. When I learned that the young lady was coming to the general's residence, the secret guards notified me."

The moment Lin Qi appeared, Gao Lan knew that the lady's guess was right. Young Master, they are really in the General's Mansion.

Su Xiang blinked, not surprised by the answer.

"I'm here, does Lin Xue An know?"

Lin Qi shook his head, "Young master, I don't know. He has been in the ancestral hall for three hours, and he doesn't allow any of us to go in. We... can only wait."

Gao Lan thought about the reason and hung his head sadly.

Su wanted to take a step inside, "Let's go in, we'll be easily discovered if we stay outside."

"Yes."

After coming in, Su Xiang briefly understood the situation, then walked into the Lin Ancestral Hall holding an umbrella.

As for Gao Lan and others, they continued to wait outside.

In order to avoid attracting attention, only a few candles were burning in the ancestral hall, so the interior was very dark.

As soon as Su Xiang opened the door, he saw the back of Lin Xue An, who was kneeling on the ground. The young man was kneeling straight, like a statue.

Hearing the noise, Lin Xue didn't even turn her head, and whispered: "Get out."

Because he hadn't spoken for a long time, his voice was too hoarse, and it also contained the chill that Su Xiang had felt for a long time.

Most people would be so frightened that they would close the door and leave. Su Xiang was not an ordinary person. She closed her umbrella and went into the house, closed the door smoothly, and then put down her umbrella.

Lin Xue turned her head, her eyes filled with gloom, and she was about to get angry, but when she saw the calm-faced girl, she instantly stiffened.

"Su Xiang...why are you here?"

"I was worried about you, so I guessed that you were here, so I came to take a look."

Su Xiang approached him and looked at the rows of memorial tablets in front of him. The ones at the front were those of General Lin and Mrs. Lin.

She pursed her lips, and then knelt down next to Lin Xueman.

Lin Xueyin's pupils shrank suddenly.

"Su Xiang..."

"I know you must be feeling very uncomfortable at the moment, and I won't say comforting words. So..." Su Xiang took Lin Xueman's hand and solemnly said, "I will accompany you."

Lin Xue An stared at Su Xiang blankly, his Adam's apple rolling slowly, his throat was dry, and he was speechless for a moment.

After a while, Lin Xue An closed his eyes and held Su Xiang's hand firmly. For the first time, he showed pain in his eyes in front of Su Xiang.

That was a vulnerability that he didn't want to show to others.

"Su Xiang, they... have all left me, and now I only have you..."

In an instant, Su Xiang felt that her heart was being squeezed tightly, and an indescribable heartache surged up, making her nose sore.

So, Su Xiang leaned forward, hugged Lin Xueman, hugged him tightly, and comforted him softly.

"It's okay, I'll stay with you."
