The Words of the Number One

After walking for two days, the boat drove to the wide and gentle water, and I was relieved that it was no longer swaying like before. The reaction to seasickness this time has been much better than the last time, and I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been lying on the railing to blow the wind, but Ji Yu recovered quickly and stayed by my side all the time.

He seemed genuinely afraid that I might disappear, and basically stayed with me like peas and shadows. Carrier Pigeon didn’t have any books and didn’t read any more. I thought he was so busy at first, how much work should be delayed during the time he came to look for me.

I have to say that Ji Yu is very careful and can always easily detect my discomfort. He often asks for various sour fruit preserves or brings me Qingxin pills before I even ask. Even when he approached Su Teng back then, he was never so attentive.

I was flattered and told him that I could just come by myself, I am not used to him like this.

He raised his eyebrows, handed me the freshly peeled orange, and said with a smile, "Then you get used to it."

The orange he gave me was peeled very cleanly, even the top tendons were peeled clean. I looked up at Ji Yu in surprise, he clapped his hands and took out another mango from his sleeve, and wrote lightly: "I still have this after eating."

"..."

Where did he get so much fruit?

How does he know I don't like the veins on oranges?

I lowered my head and put the orange slices into my mouth. Once the sweet and sour taste filled my chest, the stuffiness in my chest dissipated a lot. I couldn't help saying: "It's so sweet."

"Yeah, it looks really delicious." Ji Yu echoed with deep meaning from the side.

I turned my eyes and saw that he was holding the mango in one hand and peeling the mango in the other. After a moment of silence, I broke off two tangerines and handed them to his mouth, and said, "Do you... want to try it?"

He laughed like a fox, and ate the orange I fed him, with a little orange juice on his lips. For some reason, I subconsciously reached out and wiped it off for him. When my knuckles touched the corner of his mouth, my heart trembled inexplicably, and his smile deepened.

"You..." He seemed to be about to say something, but there was a soft sound next to him, and a shuttlecock landed beside us.

I picked up the shuttlecock and turned my head to look, and I saw a girl in a light orange dress with sleeves **** in the distance, with a pointed chin and big eyes, she was the usual delicate and petite Wei Guo girl. Her maid just ran up to me, and the girl in orange smiled and said from a distance: "I stopped kicking too hard, I'm sorry."

Then her eyes widened, her smile faded and she stared blankly at me—the person next to her. I followed her gaze and saw Ji Yu's turned face, and he didn't smile but just showed his face and looked towards this side, but the girl in orange was already dumbfounded.

I quietly took a step sideways, and said with a smile, "It's okay, girl, take it back and kick it."

The servant girl held the shuttlecock and ran back to the girl in orange clothes who was out of her mind. The girl blushed and turned her head away, whispered to the servant girls for a while, and then ran back to the room - the size of the room was the same as that of the entire ship. most luxurious.

Ji Yu turned her head and concentrated on peeling the mango without realizing it. I was silent for a while and said, "Why don't you wear a mask this time?"

Ji Yu peeled the skin, without changing expression, said: "I can't wear it when I have allergies, and after weighing it up, I think it's easier to persuade you to come back with this appearance."

I was speechless for a moment, but he knew how to take advantage of his appearance.

Not long after I finished eating the orange in my hand and peeling the mango in his hand, I heard whispers coming from around again. Glancing over from the corner of the eye, I saw the girl in orange go back and forth, bringing a few other girls along, a group of Miss Jiao and maidservants walking up and down the deck as if nothing had happened, and their eyes were also on Ji Yu's side Float away.

Is this to observe Ji Yu's beauty?

Ji Yu was unmoved by his eyes, nose, nose and heart, and said lightly, "You may have to get used to this."

"..."

He was about to pass the mango in his hand to me when the boat tilted slightly, and a lady wandering around us bumped into Ji Yu directly, and the mango in Ji Yu's hand drew a beautiful curve in the air, and there was a loud bang. fell into the river.

I felt so sorry for a moment that I became slightly angry.

Ji Yu narrowed her eyes and turned her head to look at the young lady. The girl in the peach pink dress saluted and apologized, "I'm really sorry, I didn't stand firm."

This young lady was also called by the shuttlecock kicker, and she was surrounded by the crowd with the most maidservants, presumably she was the one with the best family background and the most favored among them.

After Ji Yu lost the elusive protective color of noble son, such an appearance would be a big trouble, and anyone could "accidentally" make a mistake. But I still have to say that Weiguo women are bold, and I am still standing here, so I blatantly approached her.

I leaned against the railing, waiting for Ji Yu to smile as usual and bewilder her, but he just nodded and ignored the girl, turned his head and smiled at me, "I'll give it to you later." You peel one, are you still uncomfortable?"

Even if Ji Yu ignored the girl, the girl looked at Ji Yu with scorching eyes. Although she said she was making fun of herself, she was not too disappointed, and turned around to whisper to the girls again.

Ji Yu had always treated women with a pleasant face before, and had never been so indifferent. I was a little surprised, turned around in my mind and said, "Are we going to act as a loving couple again this time?"

Ji Yu showed his signature expression that was half a smile but not a smile for a moment, but soon restrained his smile to reveal a little anger. I suddenly realized that I haven't seen his defensive smile recently, it seems that he is deliberately restraining himself.

Instead of smiling like that in front of me, he seemed to be trying to face me honestly and undefended.

"You don't have to play any role, and I don't act. Whoever has nothing to do is acting with you every day, I wish you could spit out the oranges I peeled for you!" Ji Yu whispered, peeling the sticky hands of the mango Rub it **** my face.

I was taken aback by his childish behavior and looked at him a little bewildered. The sweet smell of mangoes filled my nostrils, I took a deep breath and said, "I've never eaten mangoes before."

Mango is a rare fruit in Qi State, and it is not produced locally. Occasionally, one or two tributes have never been my share. I only know that they smell delicious, but I never know what they taste like.

When I was a child, I would still be greedy, but when I grew up, I realized that they would never belong to me, so I stopped thinking about them.

Ji Yu's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he stretched out his mango-flavored hand to pinch my face, and said with a soft smile, "Let's go, you go and wash your face, and I'll just peel it off for you."

There was no trace of anger in his eyes, and he seemed a little distressed.

Later, he took out another mango from nowhere, which was bigger and more golden than the one just now. He took the time to peel it and handed it to me. It was the first time I tasted mango.

It turns out that they taste like this, very mellow and sweet.

It turns out that this is how it feels to be treated very seriously by Ji Yu. Sometimes I am very afraid of his tenderness and kindness. If I really get used to it, I am afraid that one day I will be unable to do without him.

How could a man like him belong to me?

As expected, Ji Yu's popularity was confirmed once again. He went out the next day but didn't return. I went to look for him a little strangely, and saw him standing on the deck in front of the lady who bumped into him. The lady was smiling and talking to him with a basket of various fruits on her shoulders. I approached them quietly and hid behind the wall, and then I heard the lady's voice.

"I bumped into my husband yesterday and lost my fruit. I specially picked some good fruits to make amends." She handed the basket of fruits to Ji Yu, her face flushed a little.

Ji Yu took the basket lightly and said, "Thank you, miss, do you have anything else to do?"

"Ah? Ah...I saw Mr.'s wife was unwell yesterday, so I want to visit..."

"Since you know she's unwell, don't bother her. Just tell me if you have anything to say."

Ji Yu's straight-forward and business-like words made the young lady's blush fade away, and she bit her lip unwillingly and said, "Sir, you are so kind to your wife."

"Of course."

"But I see that she is very ordinary. I feel sorry for Mr.." The young lady didn't go around in circles, and said bluntly: "Have you heard of Mrs. Du in Shixi? I ​​am the only daughter of Mrs. Du, and my father is looking for someone to marry. There is Mrs. Du Whether you are in Wei State or going to Song State, you will..."

Ji Yu laughed softly, as if he thought the situation was too funny, he threw the basket back to the young lady's maid and said, "Shixi Du Clan? This family I've never heard of, is really impressive."

The young lady was stunned for a moment, and her face turned red again - this time she was angry: "You... you actually look down on us, Mrs. Du?"

"Which clan you are has nothing to do with me. Miss, I have already promised myself to her, you are late." Ji Yu smiled lightly, turned around and wanted to leave.

The young lady said angrily, "Then what if your wife dies?"

Ji Yu paused in her steps, turned her head and glanced at the lady with a half-smile, and said, "With me here, anyone who thinks like this will be damned."

The young lady was frightened by Ji Yu's threatening words, and she stood on the ground with her maid, looking pale. Ji Yu left in a leisurely manner, and met my eyes when passing by my wall. He was stunned and then came over, with a joke in his tone: "You are hiding here, how do you hear?"

I feel puzzled why he doesn't just lie to me softly like before, and then he can get away without a trace, he has always been good at this kind of trick.

After hearing my question, Ji Yu opened her eyes and looked at me for a long time, as if looking at a piece of wood that didn't understand.

"Xin Ran also said that I don't know how to love... I think you are the one who really doesn't know anything, and you should let her teach you well." Ji Yu sighed, and seemed to be very helpless: "If I am still like that, wouldn't you be more Don't believe me? What's more, since I have promised myself to you, I can no longer be so nice to other women. "

"When did you promise yourself to me?"

"When you're unconscious." Ji Yu smiled, and the joke in his words faded to seriousness, and he said, "I promised, I'm yours from now on."

His solemn expression suddenly made me feel flustered. After I lowered my eyes and coughed a few times, I turned around and went back to the room as if I had never heard of it. Ji Yu seemed to be laughing in a low voice behind me, but followed me in without saying anything, and took out a mango from her sleeve and began to peel it consciously.

...and then peeling like this, he will probably become a good hand at peeling fruit.
