Shen Qianshu asked, “You were willing to be teased by me?”
“… ” Ye Ling was silent for a moment. “Yeah.”
The two of them slipped into a moment of strange silence. Shen Qianshu was still unclear now as to why her memories seven years ago were so clear. It was like she had slipped into her memories, and she could not get out of it. There were so many sweet memories between her and him.
After she was injured that day, Ye Ling cleaned up the shards and sat on the sofa silently. The weather in Paris was sunny. However, his body was shrouded with a layer of ice. Shen Qianshu’s heart was uneasy.
She thought in her heart, You don’t know that I have teased you, do you?
He had been keeping silent. Hence, she treated it as he had not known anything.
“Master… ” Both of them were silent all the way until the sun set. The sky in Europe always became dark slower. After the sun set, there was a period of grey and white. Shen Qianshu looked at her own feet and felt frustrated.
“Master, can I stay in the castle?” Her foot was already injured. He wouldn’t be so cruel to kick her out, would he?
Butler Luther said before that she was not allowed to stay in the castle.
The serious matter that day was like a prick in her heart. She had heeded the warning.
But it was really too painful.
How could she walk like this?
“Cannot!” Ye Ling pursed his lips. His temples were cold like a knife. He sat on the sofa, and his white shirt was stained with a little trace of blood. A thin layer of shadows formed on that self-restrained and cold face.
It brought some sternness.
He rejected without giving her any leeway.
He did not even give her a glance.
If Shen Qianshu wanted to take the bus, she had to walk one kilometer away to the bus stop. How was she going to walk in this condition?
“Master, the castle is so big. I’ll just find a place to spend the night. I assure you that I will not disturb you. I will close the door and sleep all the way until morning.”
“Cannot!” Ye Ling’s amber-colored eyes were dark and cold. “I’ll send you home!”
He stood up, walked over, and carried Shen Qianshu up horizontally. She got a fright, and her face was red with embarrassment for a moment.
It was the princess carry again.
She felt so blissful that she wanted to faint.
Shen Qianshu felt lustful, but she also noticed Ye Ling’s face. It was cold like frost. She had a little injury. Why was Master unwilling to let her stay overnight? She thought of the children novels which always had a dark story in the castle.
Could it be there was something which could not be revealed?
Ye Ling carried Shen Qianshu steadily and put her roughly inside the sports car. It was the first time someone was sitting in his front passenger seat. His eyebrows were tightly furrowed. Silence was gold. It was not known why his mood was extremely bad.
When the car was a few hundred meters away from the bus stop, he suddenly stopped his car.
The evening in Paris was particularly beautiful.
After the sun had set, the sky was still left with some magnificent colors. They were surrounded by fields of grass. On the right side, there was a gemlike tranquil amber. The castle which was not far away was partly hidden and partly visible. The style was totally different.
The sound of the bell in the church could be heard vaguely.
At the lakeside, white swans were crossing their necks lovingly. There were ripples in the lake. In the sky, there were colorful clouds. Shen Qianshu sat in the fiery red sports car and felt that her breathing had become slow.
Master… what are you doing?
Ye Ling gripped tightly onto the steering wheel. He seemed to be considering something and also seemed to be deliberating something. He also seemed like he was at the crossroad of life as he was making a very, very important decision. He was undecided for a moment.
She had never seen such a hesitant Ye Ling before. She also did not know exactly what decision it was to make him so hesitant.
“Master?”
“You really want to stay at the castle?”
