Every time I wake up, I take the blame for the villain
53. White Cloud and Solitary Leaf (IV)
There are many kinds of people with a heart, one is the successful one, and the other is the failed one.
And Xiao Shi is obviously one of the second kind of people with a heart.
Perhaps, for Jiang Chen, there is only one kind of people with a heart, and that is the second kind.
For people like him who know the so-called destiny.
Many people spend their lives in confusion, and lament their confusion before they die. But in fact, this situation may not be a bad thing.
If a person knows that he will die, or even knows that he will die in the next moment, but is powerless to change it, isn't it more uncomfortable?
Jiang Chen has never been confused, he is always so clear that it is unbelievable.
The reason why proverbs can be passed down is that they have been tested many times. For example, Jiang Chen heard someone say a long time ago that it is rare to be confused in life, and it is rare to be confused.
But he later sneered at this remark, and he was no longer willing to be confused. Only ordinary people have the right to be confused. Confused people cannot live in such a situation, especially when almost everyone is on the opposite side.
But it is precisely because of sobriety that you can count the blood on your hands.
So many times, sober people don't live well. At least they are not as good as confused ordinary people who can muddle through.
Jiang Chen knew who this little girl was.
Of course, it was not just because she could make beef soup.
When he saw her, he knew one thing.
Someone treated him as prey.
Jiang Chen knew it, but he didn't say anything.
Before the result, people will never easily believe that they will fail.
Some people are like this. Even if there are too many examples of playing with fire and getting burned, they always think that they will never fail no matter who they are.
The East Sea Cliff of Feixian Island is really a place that can reflect the beauty of the sea.
Jiang Chen was wearing that white dress and standing on the edge of the stone cliff.
There were surging waves under the cliff.
Under his feet was a piece of blue, reflecting the blue sky. White clouds floated through the sky, responding to the sea. At this moment, it seemed that the sky and the earth were connected.
He looked at the endless blue, and then saw the endless darkness. He touched the sword. For Ye Gucheng, it was a sign of bloodshed, but for Jiang Chen, his expression was so calm that it was hard to tell what he was thinking.
There were clouds floating in the sky, and clouds floating on the sea.
The white clouds in the sky are clouds, and the white waves on the sea are also clouds. Feixian Island and its city are floating in the sea of clouds, which is probably why Baiyun City is Baiyun City.
The sea breeze blew the corners of his clothes, making a rustling sound. He had a piece of peculiarly shaped jade on his waist, but it still couldn't suppress the flying ribbon.
The contrast between his long hair and his white clothes was so sharp.
Xiao Shi came out from the woods with a big pot of beef soup. Seeing this scene, she unconsciously lightened her steps. After she took two steps, she realized that this was not her style...
But she still didn't dare to say much.
It was quiet for a long time, and there was nothing else except the sound of the sea breeze.
The long-lasting hot beef soup has gradually cooled down.
He still stood there motionless. If I hadn't seen him standing in front of me, if I hadn't been able to see his figure clearly, if the wind hadn't flowed differently when it blew over him, Xiao Shi would have thought that there was no one on that cliff.
Such a calm aura didn't seem like something a living person should have.
Xiao Shi thought.
Could this be the reason why the world's number one swordsman could become the number one swordsman?
In the past, I heard from those people on the island that Ximen Chuxue of Wanmei Villa was very good at swordsmanship, because Ximen Chuxue was so cold that he had no emotions. So, as a sword that defeated him, would Ye Gucheng still have emotions?
Xiao Shi wasn't sure either.
But she felt that there was. She didn't know where she got this feeling from.
When he slightly restrained the indifference in his eyes, there was only silence left.
Such a quiet person seemed to have the magic to calm everything around him.
He just stood here, standing in the wind, but he had an indescribable elegance, an indescribable sense of calmness and credibility, and even a kind of dignity that looked down on the world. Xiao Shi had seen people who controlled the world, but those people who controlled the world were not as calm and composed as this person who had never controlled the world. He didn't look like a swordsman who could hold the title of the world's number one, but more like an unattainable and elegant gentleman.
At this time, it was always difficult to imagine that he was a sword that killed countless people.
Xiao Shi knew, of course, that this was just an illusion. Because she was ignored by this man for most of the day yesterday, a real nobleman should also be a gentle and generous person, and would not be like him, watching a girl fall off the edge of a cliff and being indifferent. Moreover, how could someone who could have such a terrifying look be a good person to get along with.
There are many such examples around her.
For example, her ninth brother, who was dull and stupid, couldn't count and got lost, but he was also a killer that she couldn't compare to. For example, she herself, although she is a cute girl praised by everyone, is also a little witch who likes to destroy things she likes.
Do those servile guys think she doesn't know how they describe her behind her back? But because she is a noble princess, she doesn't care about these people.
A group of short-sighted people!
The superficial things are just for others to see.
Others may not know, but how could Xiao Shi, who is good at being innocent and cute, not know?
People in the world are complicated, she is complicated too, and the old man in her family is complicated too, but not many people are as complicated as him and Jiu Ge.
"Would you like to try the beef soup?" she asked.
There was silence for a long time, and when Xiao Shi thought he would not respond, he spoke, "Your soup is cold."
"Hot has hot taste, cold has cold taste. I think the beef soup I make is delicious no matter what. There is only one, no semicolon. Really don't want to try it?" She paused, and seeing that Ye Gucheng did not respond, she frowned, "Are you afraid that I will poison you?"
After speaking, she scooped up the beef soup and took a sip. Cold beef soup is of course not as delicious as hot beef soup. Xiao Shi frowned, but when Ye Gucheng turned around, she immediately smiled again.
Jiang Chen smiled slightly, "Do you really have to give me an answer?"
This was the first time Xiao Shi had seen him smile since observing him these days. This smile was like a spring breeze, and it seemed very sincere. There was no sense of reluctance. It seemed that he was really happy, so he smiled.
When a person does not smile often, he often smiles suddenly, just like a dazzling person in a trance.
Xiao Shi was stunned for a while, but soon reacted and smiled, "Of course. My mother said that to capture a man's heart, you must first capture his stomach."
"But I don't like beef."
The smile on Xiao Shi's face froze immediately, but looking at his expression, he was very distressed, as if he really didn't like beef...
She had to say, "Of course I won't only make beef soup, I can also make fish soup and chicken soup. Whichever you like, I'll make it."
Jiang Chen turned back again, "It's just a pity."
"What a pity?" Xiao Shi asked immediately after hearing his tone was wrong.
"It's a pity that you are not the cook of the City Lord's Mansion."
Xiao Shi: ...
"Cooking happens to be one of my professions. I can also be a cook in your mansion." When she said this, she was obviously gritting her teeth.
"People who are impatient can't be the cook of the City Lord's Mansion."
"I'm not impatient."
"Then how do you complete your task?"
"Of course..." Xiao Shi blurted out and was about to accuse, and then she realized what she was asked. She said coldly, "Of course, throw it aside!"
"Why?"
Xiao Shi's face suddenly turned red, "Because..." She paused and said slightly euphemistically, "There are trees on the mountain and branches on the trees."
"Hmph~" He responded with only an inexplicable smile.
In the blink of an eye, another half a month passed.
Every time he went to Haiya, she would bring a bowl of soup to follow him.
Soon, the news that a little girl admired the city lord spread throughout Baiyun City.
She also successfully became the cook of the City Lord's Mansion.
Jiang Chen's reaction to this was no different from the previous cook's, as if the questioning that day was just a whim.
Soon, Xiao Shi found that he was actually not interested in swords. For such a person, Xiao Shi simply doubted whether he had the ability to stab the sword that defeated Ximen Chuxue.
Although he never put down the sword.
He also found that even the cook of Ye Gucheng's family could not see Ye Gucheng.
This discovery made Xiao Shi depressed.
She walked on the road to meet Ye Gucheng for more than half a month under the pretext of coincidence, but she could not see Ye Gucheng in the city lord's mansion.
Because no one would dare to go around his room.
Xiao Shi is a smart person, she will naturally not step on other people's bottom line to do things.
But seeing that time passed little by little, but Ye Gucheng still looked indifferent, she was a little anxious.
Her ninth brother wanted to collect this person, and she had not forgotten it. But now, except Haiya, she couldn't even see this person.
She was a little scared.
The Ninth Young Master, this is what the people on the island call her ninth brother. Of course, a name often comes with a definition.
Just like for the name Lu Xiaofeng, it represents meddling in other people's business.
For Ye Gucheng, it represents the fairy from the sky, the Lord of Baiyun City.
And for Gong Jiu, he represents nine things.
The liquid of a poisonous snake, the heart of a fox, the ice and snow in the North Sea, the rocks on the Tianshan Mountains, the bravery of a lion, the cruelty of a jackal, the patience of a camel, the intelligence of a human, and a ghost from the eighteen layers of hell.
This is the definition given to him by the people on that island. Such a person, even if he is his own brother, Xiao Shi can't help but be terrified.
In such a comparison, the definition of the Lord of Baiyun City is so simple and concise in the eyes of the world's Jianghu people.
There is also Ximen Chuxue, but before his sword, there is another modifier, the ruthless sword.
But Jiang Chen never saw her again.
For Jiang Chen, meeting a stranger is completely unnecessary.
With this kind of time, he could have wiped the sword twice more.
Meeting people is not one of Jiang Chen's interests.
He is not Lu Xiaofeng, and he doesn't like trouble at all.
But many things in the world cannot be easily fulfilled.
Everyone has things that cannot be fulfilled, but Jiang Chen is always given special care when they cannot be fulfilled.
For example, he didn't want to see Gong Jiu, but Gong Jiu came.
And Jiang Chen brought him into the city himself.
