The Boyfriend Who I’ve Never Met

The weather in winter was very dark.

When the setting sun gradually sinks, the afterglow falls on the carved window lattice, sprinkling fine shadows.

The brushes on the pen holder were scattered all over the place, and the unfinished picture of deer drinking was also lying quietly on the ground with a layer of carpet.

The girl in the cotton-padded jacket was pressed on the bookcase, and the young man in front of her had leaned down.

At that time, the tip of his nose was rubbing against her lightly, and his breath was close at hand.

Xie Tao didn't dare to breathe anymore, her eyes blinked and blinked, and her white face was gradually reddened by the warm breath of his approach.

It smeared in the clouds like a beautiful haze on the horizon, and the cinnabar red between her eyebrows was set, and it was more like a rouge-like lustrous color.

Like being annoyed by her sudden kisses or hugs these days, or the fact that she always pierces his red ears, this young boy who has always abided by the gift of a gentleman and will never go beyond a step is actually Forget the so-called rituals.

In an instant, he tilted his head slightly and bit her lip viciously.

Xie Tao's apricot eyes widened, as if something suddenly exploded, her ears roared, and her mind was completely blank.

The surroundings were quiet and silent, and occasionally the sound of tiny sparks exploded when the charcoal fire in the inner chamber was burning was faintly audible.

It was different from the moment when Xie Tao kissed him.

At this moment, he was biting her lip, but after all, he still touched her gently, tossing and turning.

Until Weibo's voice came outside the door:

"My lord, do you need to prepare for the dinner in the mansion?"

Wei Yun seemed to wake up suddenly, his eyelashes trembled, his pupils shrank slightly, and he suddenly loosened the shoulders of the girl he was pressing on the book table, and hurriedly backed away a few steps, a face that was as cold as jade was already at this moment. Stained with thin red, his ears are already hot red.

The wide sleeves flicked past, and he came across a pile of books next to the bookcase, and instantly fell down, making a noise.

"grown ups?"

Weibo heard the sound, but before coming to Wei Yun's answer, he called out again cautiously.

"Go get ready."

When Wei Yun spoke, his voice was a bit dumb.

When there was no more sound outside the door, when Wei Yun looked at the girl whose cheeks were already red on the book case, his Adam's apple moved, his fingers moved, and he reached out to hold her wrist.

Xie Tao was pulled up by him, but she stood in front of him, but she didn't even dare to lift her head.

For a while, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became very delicate.

After a long while, Xie Tao stammered, "I, I'm going out..."

Wei Yun looked down at her and replied very softly, "Yes."

When he finished speaking, he saw the girl in front of him rushing into the inner room like a gust of wind, ran out holding a pile of things, but stopped at the door.

She turned her head and looked at him eagerly, "Wei Yun, you can open the door for me, I can't make a move..."

"..."

Wei Yun had to walk over and opened the door with his hand.

Xie Tao glanced at him, her cheeks reddening unconsciously, she hung her head quickly and ran out with a bunch of things in her arms.

Xie Tao found Uncle Wei and went to the kitchen with him.

"Oh, miss, let the servants prepare for this dinner, miss, let's rest!" Uncle Wei quickly persuaded her when she heard that she was going to cook.

"It's okay, Uncle Wei, let me try it!"

Xie Tao said to him as he walked.

In the end, Uncle Wei did not persuade Xie Tao, so he had to take her to the direction of the kitchen.

It was the first time that the servants in the kitchen saw this rumored only female guest of the Chinese Teacher's House, and almost all secretly looked at her with curious eyes.

This looks very different from the image of the sickly sick lady they imagined.

She wore a strange dress that they had never seen before, her hair was simply tied in a ponytail, and she had a delicate and clean face without powder, and she looked petite and petite.

Because the chef next to him was busy with other dishes, Xie Tao only planned to make a hot pot by himself.

There are copper pots that are similar to hot pots. The bottom is filled with charcoal fire, but the copper pots here are generally used to cook some light mutton soup.

When she was in Wei Yun's study, Xie Tao specially removed all the packaging bags of the hot pot bottom material, put it away carefully, and planned to take it back when she left.

She kept remembering what Lao Xi had ordered.

Can't leave too many traces of her time and space here.

Because the time and space she is in is different from the social process of this time and space, if any key innovative technology or something that can make a big impact in that time and space, it will appear prematurely in the social process that lags behind her. This time and space of the world is afraid that it will cause chaos in time and space.

But ordinary small objects will not have any effect.

The reason she did this was to avoid arousing excessive surprises among the servants of the National Teacher's Palace, because she was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble to Wei Yun.

Because she knew his situation, perhaps many pairs of eyes were secretly staring at this national teacher's mansion.

When night fell, bursts of fireworks had been ignited outside the courtyard of the National Teacher's Palace.

In the deep night, clusters of colorful sparks bloomed, and when they disappeared in an instant, new fireworks rushed to the sky and exploded, as if they had burned thousands of miles of stratus clouds.

The dinner was held in the hall of the main courtyard.

A very wide table, in addition to the copper pot still being cooked, is full of delicious delicacies, but at this moment, only Wei Yun, Xie Tao, and Sheng Yueqi are sitting.

Xie Tao tried to get Weibo to sit down, but the old man was very stubborn. He kept chanting "I can't do it," and he kept moving back.

So Xie Tao looked at Wei Jing who was standing by.

Wei Jing also took a step back quickly.

Even Shao Liyin moved back.

"Okay, little madam, one or two of them are quite stubborn, you can't persuade them." Sheng Yueqi had already moved his chopsticks, and said to her while he blanched the beef.

This time and space has not yet reached the stage of modern society, and there is still a distinction between honor and inferiority, and this distinction is a deep-rooted concept in many people's hearts, and it is naturally difficult to understand.

Wei Yun glanced at Xie Tao, as if thinking for a moment, then turned his head to look at Weibo who was standing aside, "We are setting up a few banquets in the courtyard and let the people in the house join us."

Uncle Wei was taken aback for a moment, and quickly lowered his head to say yes.

This may be the most lively New Year's Eve dinner in the history of the National Teacher's House.

Prior to this, the servants and even the guards in the mansion knew that there were no festivals in the National Teacher Mansion.

It has always been cold and quiet here, as if there is no smoke.

But tonight, it's different.

At each table of banquets, there is a copper pot in the middle of the various dishes. The red soup is rolling in it, and only a little smell, it is the spicy and delicious fragrance that appeals to the appetite.

But none of them dared to move the chopsticks, and the yard was so quiet that there was no voice.

Until Weibo came over and said, "My lord said, tonight and New Year's Eve, you don't have to stick to the customary etiquette, just use your chopsticks!"

Hearing Weibo's words, the servants and the guards looked at each other, and invariably glanced at the Master of the National Teachers who was sitting in the hall.

Wei Jing moved the chopsticks first.

Then it was Uncle Wei who had just sat down. He also learned the same way as Mr. Sheng just now. He picked a piece of thinly sliced ​​raw beef and dipped it into a tumbling copper pot to scald it.

For a while, everyone's eyes stopped on Weibo.

Seeing Wei Bo moved the chopsticks, they also tentatively took the chopsticks at hand and began to pick up the vegetables and cook them in the copper pot.

The spicy taste stimulates everyone's sense of taste, and no one is willing to put down the chopsticks in his hand even if he gets sweaty from being spicy.

The wine was still warm on the table, everyone ate all together and drank some more wine, finally dared to speak out.

Xie Tao could not help but put down his chopsticks to look down the steps of the hall. Hearing the lively noises in the courtyard, there were people sitting at several tables in the courtyard. Got the faces of many of them.

When has there been such a moment in the National Teacher's House?

Even Shao Liyin, who is dressed as a man sitting in the guards, is unavoidably stunned by such a scene.

"Aren't you going to eat it?" Wei Jing dipped the beef that had just been blanched, poured sesame oil, minced garlic, chopped peanuts, chopped chili and chopped green onion, and then fed it into his mouth.

Shao Liyin gave him a cold look.

"..."

Wei Jing bit the meat. He wanted to explain what happened during the day. He was worried about the slap during the day, and his face still hurts a little bit now.

He is also very angry.

Especially when he caught a glimpse of a certain guard sitting opposite him with a teasing smile, Wei Jing kicked him under the table with a solemn face.

As I ate, I kind of sighed.

These people who licked their blood hadn't had such a lively New Year's Eve dinner for how long.

At that time, fireworks of various colors were still blooming in the canopy outside the courtyard wall, and the sound was heard, as if the falling sparks were burning to the bottom of everyone's heart.

At least for the moment, no one is unhappy.

Xie Tao put the hot meat in Wei Yun's bowl and urged him to eat it quickly.

Wei Yun glanced down at the dishes filled with sesame oil, hesitated for a moment, then Yiyan took the chopsticks on the chopsticks and fed the meat she gave him into his mouth.

"Is it delicious?" She looked at him and asked quickly.

Wei Yun was too hot to speak.

He ate it silently and nodded lightly, which was regarded as an answer.

Then he took the tea cup to his lips and took a sip, only to get a little bit spicy.

Although it is very spicy, Wei Yun cannot deny that such a stimulus makes it difficult to put down his chopsticks.

Even with meals, his postures have always been elegant and upright, not ill or slow, just like a picture scroll.

After all, Wei was once a pinnacle family of Ronghua. Even though he was only the blood of the Sanfang concubine, in such a big family, his behavior was also restricted by the etiquette.

In order for his father Wei Changning to survive in the Wei family better, he taught him more rigorously, not allowing him to make mistakes.

And Sheng Yueqi seemed to be more casual, but he always habitually arranged the dishes in front of him neatly.

This is his obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Xie Tao saw God even watching Wei Yun eat.

Until Wei Yun flexed her knuckles and tapped her forehead lightly.

She clutched her forehead, gave a dry smile, her cheeks became a little hot, and quickly took the chopsticks and ate the dishes in front of her.

Wei Yun saw her eating with her head buried, her cheeks bulging, a bit like a small animal.

There were some smiles in his eyes.

So he reached out and put a piece of braised pork into her bowl.

Xie Tao saw that a piece of braised pork suddenly appeared in her bowl. As soon as she raised her head, she saw that Wei Yun had her eyes down and took a sip from her wine glass.

She couldn't help but smirked, lowered her head and bit the braised pork into her mouth.

"..."

Sheng Yueqi suddenly felt as if she was a little full.

The hot pot in front of him is no longer fragrant, and the wine is no longer fragrant. There is too much dog food, and it immediately supports him.

"Can you pour me some?"

Xie Tao suddenly held up an empty wine glass and looked at Wei Yun eagerly.

Wei Yun still remembered how she looked after she was drunk. He frowned and said, "You can't drink."

"But today is New Year's Eve." Xie Tao put the wine glass in front of him and looked at him with those round apricot eyes, "Just one cup, okay?"

Sheng Yueqi couldn't stand it anymore, "My lord, let the little lady have a drink. Today is New Year's Eve. It's a day to drink."

Wei Yun lowered his eyes to catch Xie Tao's expectant gaze, and there was a look of helplessness in his eyes.

Then he stretched out his hand and poured a glass of wine for Xie Tao.

Xie Tao bent her eyes, holding a wine glass and said, "Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year." Sheng Yueqi raised the wine glass in her hand towards Xie Tao, with a smile on the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

She said she only had a drink, but Xie Tao secretly drank several glasses under Wei Yun's eyes. Wei Yun saw it, but seeing her smiled brilliantly, she couldn't say that she was not allowed to drink anymore.

Forget it, leave her alone tonight.

Wei Yun held the jade-colored wine cup in his hand, and when he raised his eyes, he looked at the moonlight hanging high in the night beyond the eaves of the hall.

His expression softened suddenly.

After the banquet was over, all the servants and guards, except Wei Jing and Wei Bo, withdrew from the yard, and there was a moment of silence.

It was also at this moment that Xie Tao took out the hat he had brought to Weibo.

"Uncle Wei, this hat is very warm. Two days ago, I heard you say that you have a headache because of the wind. If you wear this hat, it should be much better."

Xie Tao was already a little drunk at this moment, a small blush was flushing, and the apricot eyes were stained with a hazy mist.

The woolen hat was thick, and Weibo had never seen a hat in this shape.

This old man, who has been alone since his wife’s death, heard this girl in front of him, and even put a word he had inadvertently said in his heart two days ago, and even prepared such a gift for him. He put the hat on Holding it in his hand, his heart was filled with melting warmth, his lips moved slightly, and he said after a long while, "Old slave...Thank you, Miss."

The identity of her young lady was given by an adult, and Wei Bo has never been clear about her identity.

And she always appeared suddenly and disappeared again.

Because adults never let other servants approach the inner courtyard easily, and the yard of Miss Cousin does not allow anyone other than him to approach, how could Wei Bo not notice the clues.

But his life was saved by an adult, and he has been blessed by the adult for so many years, and it can be regarded as a place to stay, not to be affected.

He was always grateful.

So when the adult told him to talk a few days ago, even though he was curious about the lady in his heart, he still didn't ask anything.

There are some things that he should not be concerned about.

He has been tight-lipped about everything about the young lady.

Suddenly receiving such a gift at this moment, Wei Bo felt even more unspeakable for this young lady.

When Xie Tao was drunk, she only knew that she was half-opened and smirked, "Don't thank Wei Bo, Happy New Year, I wish you good health in the new year!"

"...Hey." Weibo's eyes were a little hot.

After giving the gift of Uncle Wei, Xie Tao took out a toy sword from Wei Yun's room that would light up at the touch of a button. It was very cool at first glance.

Under Wei Yun's gaze, she handed the toy sword to Wei Jing.

Wei Jing looked dazed.

"I can't buy the kind of sword you want, um...you can just play with it," Xie Tao said.

Wei Jing first glanced at Wei Yun who was sitting at the table drinking tea, and then took the inexplicably glowing sword in Xie Tao's hand.

This sword is very light, and I don't know what material it is, but Wei Jing knows that it is a sword that can't kill people.

He held the sword that had been shining with colorful light in a daze, and it took a long time to find his own voice, dry and a little dazed, "Thanks, thank you little lady..."

This gift is so magical.

It was so amazing that he couldn't react.

"But you must not take it out to play! Just play in the room by yourself..." Xie Tao exhorted.

? ? ?

Although Wei Jing didn't know why, he nodded, "...Subordinates know."

After that, Shao Liyin continued to take on the task of washing the drunk master, but she helped Xie Tao finish washing, and when she helped her back to the yard, Shao Liyin was about to help her wipe her hair, but Xie Tao held him down. Sitting at the table.

Then she saw Xie Tao push the two celadon cups placed on the table in front of her.

"For you."

Xie Tao supported her chin with one hand, looked at her and said, "It's a New Year's gift!"

Shao Liyin was stunned for a while, and after a while, under Xie Tao's urging, opened the porcelain lid.

"You quickly taste it." Xie Tao said.

Shao Liyin glanced into the porcelain cup, and there was a bit of doubt on the face that had never looked so pale.

But due to Xie Tao's urging, she still took the spoon, scooped a spoonful and fed it into her mouth.

It has a bit of cold taste, with a mellow milky aroma, a sweet taste, and even something like black pearls, which is a bit soft and springy when biting.

She had never drunk anything like this.

"Is it delicious?" Xie Tao asked her with a grin.

Shao Liyin nodded, there was a novel look in those eyes.

This girl, who had always been cold-hearted, finally took on the look of a girl.

"This is milk tea, all for you."

Xie Tao smiled happily when she saw that she liked it. As she spoke, she took out a lipstick from her backpack next to her.

She specifically picked it for Shao Liyin today.

Shao Liyin took it. The surface of the thing was metallic, but it didn't look like gold. It was a square piece, which made her a little puzzled, "What is this?"

"Lipstick."

Xie Tao reached out and opened the lipstick in her hand, turning out the water-red paste inside.

"It just wiped it on your lips." She explained again.

Shao Liyin reacted, "mouth fat?"

Xie Tao nodded.

Shao Liyin originally wanted to say that she never used mouth fat, but now she looked at the girl in front of her who was still drunk, but had been looking at her with her eyes half-open, but she couldn't say such a thing.

At this time, Wei Yun had already arrived at the door.

When Shao Liyin saw Wei Yun, he immediately stood up and hurriedly saluted, "My lord."

Wei Yun nodded lightly and walked in.

"Subordinates retire." Shao Liyin said and was about to leave, but as if thinking of something, she turned around and picked up the two cups of milk tea on the table, still holding the lipstick Xie Tao gave her in her fingers. .

"Subordinate...Thank you, Master." She lowered her head and said softly.

When Shao Liyin left, Wei Yun just sat down at the table and frowned when she saw her hair still wet.

So he got up, walked to the shelf to the side and took the cloth towel, stood behind her, and wiped her hair.

Xie Tao tilted her head to look at him, and then smiled silly.

Wei Yun poked her on the cheek, "Sit down."

Xie Tao touched her cheek, sat upright like a schoolboy, and never looked back at him, but she yawned, as if thinking of something, she suddenly took herself and put it next to him. Rummaging through the backpack on my stool.

Finally, she turned out a bag from inside.

Inside is a set of well-folded clothes.

That was when she was walking in the mall, she accidentally saw the humanoid model wearing a shirt with black trousers in the window.

Although the price is a bit expensive, Xie Tao still bought it.

She wanted to know what Wei Yun would look like in such clothes.

"Wei Yun, this is your New Year's gift!" She took the clothes out of the bag and handed them back to him.

It's not that Wei Yun has never seen such clothes. It seems that in her time and space, many men wear such clothes.

Then Xie Tao pushed him, "Go and change it, you change it and show it to me!"

Her hair wasn't dry yet, Wei Yun didn't want to respond to her, but seeing that she had been urging him and wanted him to change his clothes, he had to take the clothes and go behind the screen in the inner room.

"Don't worry! I washed it!" Xie Tao was still shouting outside.

Xie Tao lay on the table and waited, waiting until her eyes were about to be closed, before finally hearing the sound of Wei Yun's footsteps gradually approaching.

When she turned her head, she seemed to want to say something, but the moment she saw him, her mouth was slightly open, and she couldn't say anything.

The man in front of him wore a well-tailored white shirt with a stand-up collar. His clothes were all tucked into black suit trousers, which made him wide shoulders, narrow waist, and slender legs.

At this moment, he was not wearing shoes, standing there with bare feet. He did not know that the crown of hair on his head was taken off by him, and the bun was also scattered. The thick black hair made his skin cold and white, as flawless as jade.

He wore such clothes and dangled his hair, as if he had added a touch of abstinence in an instant.

Xie Tao seemed to hear her heart beating for a while.

He and he are too good-looking...

For a moment, she could not look away from him at all.

Wei Yun saw her look stupid, and there was a slight smile in her always cold eyebrows.

He came over and took the cloth towel that had been set aside to wipe her hair.

Xie Tao couldn't help but look back at him many times, but was poked in the face and told her to sit down.

Later, Xie Tao rushed into his arms altogether.

Wei Yun had nothing to do with her, her ears were already a little hot, but he didn't have the heart to push her away, but continued to move gently to wipe her hair.

Later, seeing her drowsy, her eyes closed but immediately widened. Repeated this several times, Wei Yun couldn't help being a little bit amused.

So he said, "Sleep when you are sleepy."

Xie Tao's voice was already a little confused, "But I want to stay together with you..."

"But you are sleepy." His well-knotted fingers stroked her hair.

"I'm not sleepy..." she yawned again as she said.

She lay in his arms and suddenly said, "Happy New Year, Wei Yun..."

Her voice was soft, and it was like the softest breeze in the spring.

"This year is the happiest New Year's Eve I have had...because I spent it with you."

Suddenly she started to laugh again.

When she looked up at him, she asked, "Are you happy Wei Yun?"

At this moment, when Wei Yun heard these words from her, his eyebrows and eyes became softer, like the moonlight reflected in the water waves, turning under his eyes, like the light of a star. With the tenderness of the sparkling water.

"Ok."

After a long time, he answered softly.

At this moment of the year, Xu was the only moment of joy in his life so far.

And these are all given by her.

Xie Tao murmured, while Wei Yun always lowered his eyebrows and responded softly.

At this moment, he seemed particularly patient and gentle.

Later he stroked her hair lightly and said, "Sleep."

Xie Tao still half-opened his eyes stubbornly, "But I still want to..."

She hesitated for a long while.

"What else do you think?" Wei Yun asked her.

Suddenly she seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly tilted her head and asked him, "Do you not like me being close to you?"

This question came a little bit suddenly, and Wei Yun was stunned for a while.

After a while, he said, "Why do you ask?"

"Do you really treat me as your little cousin?" Xie Tao began to curl her lips as she said, as if a little aggrieved, "I didn't want to be your little cousin..."

"You can't marry your little cousin with us, do you know?"

The more she talked, the more aggrieved.

Wei Yun was a little bit dumbfounded.

"This is just an identity on the face, to protect you." He explained patiently.

"Then why don't you like to kiss me?"

Maybe the drunkenness is still there, so she dared to ask such a bold question.

But hearing her words, Wei Yun's face instantly became a little red.

Xie Tao has been stubbornly looking at him with her apricot eyes open, and if he does not answer, she has been looking at his trend.

At that time, the room fell into silence.

The flickering lights made the thin red on his face a little deeper, and his eyelashes trembled. Under her gaze, it seemed that after a long time, he said with difficulty:

"It's not that I don't like..."

It's really difficult for him to open up what's going on to her.

But he still lost to her perseverance at the moment.

"It's because of you,"

In such a deep night, he gently stroked her cheek with his fingers, and sighed and was crushed in the night breeze from outside the window lattice:

"Very precious."

Because of the preciousness, he is more abiding by the etiquette, abide by the gentleman's way, unwilling to belittle her, and unwilling to go beyond.

He is waiting, waiting for her to become his wife.

But this night, at this time,

When he met her dim eyes, his heart suddenly surged.

"Peach Peach,"

He suddenly called her softly, with a low voice.

"Huh?" Xie Tao looked at him stupidly.

"I should give you a New Year gift too, am I?"

At this moment, the pupils of his eyes were flowing in ink, gradually becoming deeper.

Then, before Xie Tao had time to react, he suddenly lowered his head, Ru Fei's thin lips were printed on her soft lips.

It still has a bit of forbearance and restraint, but it is also a bit more tender and gentle.
