Chapter Index

    The small courtyard was still isolated from the world. Although Wei Lin couldn’t see it, the number of eyes staring in the dark more than doubled.

    Duan Xi didn’t know what he was busy with. He didn’t come back all night last night.Wei Lin was not used to seeing this person who insisted on watching him fall asleep every night before leaving.

    Last night he dreamed of that little chubby red-haired baby again.The little chubby baby clung to the hem of his clothes, like an abandoned little puppy, pinched his fleshy little hands and rubbed his eyes, tears streaming down his face, while crying and mumbling that his father didn’t like him anymore.

    Wei Lin felt a headache. He had never been with such a small baby, so he could only watch him cry at a loss.

    He was not a hard-hearted person in the first place, so he figured it was just a dream anyway, so it was okay to coax the little fat baby.

    He picked up the little fat baby and coaxed it for a long time. The aggrieved fat baby finally burst into laughter and hugged his neck and kept saying: “Zai Zai likes daddy the most.”

    Wei Lin has been alone since he was a child and has never had any relatives. Today is the second time that this fat baby calls him daddy, and he feels a strange feeling in his heart.

    If he could escape from this whirlpool of undercurrents in the future, he would find someone he likes, raise a child as delicate and beautiful as this fat baby, and then live in a thatched house, where the sun rises and sets, and a family of three can live peacefully for the rest of their lives.

    Wei Lin didn’t know if he had the idea of ​​raising a child, but Wei Lin felt a strange sense of intimacy towards this fat baby.

    After playing with the child for most of the night, until the sky turned white, the biological clock woke him up on time, and the child in the dream naturally disappeared.

    The empty room was cold and quiet, and Wei Lin was in a daze. He gripped the quilt tightly with his fingers. For some reason, he felt a little empty in his heart.

    He attributed everything to the fact that he was too eager for family affection, so he was emotionally influenced by a little doll in a dream.

    He quickly forgot about the fat baby, got up, changed his clothes, washed up, and then walked out of the room.

    The begonias in the courtyard bloomed all over the garden overnight, and the dew on the petals was so heavy that they were crumbling.

    Because the wolf den had not been built yet, the Sirius family was sleeping in the courtyard. The two big Sirius had gone somewhere unknown, but as soon as the little Sirius saw him, he ran over and circled crazily around his feet.

    Wei Lin bent down and picked up Little Sirius into his arms, carrying him into the courtyard.

    Standing among the begonia flowers, the faint fragrance enters the nose and penetrates the heart and mind.

    The lively little wolf cub was restless even in his arms. He stretched out his front paws to grab the petals of the crabapple flower. As a result, his legs were too short and he couldn’t reach them. Instead, a lot of dew rolled down, wetting the down on his paws and Wei Lin’s outer robe.

    Wei Lin saw this and said: “Don’t make trouble.”

    The little wolf cub retracted its paws like a child who had done something wrong, and its two ears that were originally erect drooped.

    Wei Lin was funny and angry, so he stretched out his hand and gave it to it, and the little wolf cub immediately came to life full of energy.

    Wei Lin put the little wolf cub down and let it play. Then he went to get a bamboo basket, cut out a few begonia flowers and carried them back to the living room, and then kept the begonia flowers in the bottle.

    The drab living room instantly became brighter with a few bouquets of pink begonia flowers.

    At a quarter past two o’clock, the person delivering the medicinal food walked into the courtyard on time.

    Wei Lin didn’t have much appetite today. He only ate a little bit but couldn’t finish it.

    There was more than half of the medicated meal left, and it was almost untouched. The person who brought the medicated meal was a little embarrassed. Seeing this, Wei Lin waved his hand to him: “I don’t have much appetite today. If your sect leader asks, just tell the truth.”

    He had already said this, so the man didn’t know what to say, so he packed up the food box and walked out.

    The courtyard became quiet again. Wei Lin could not leave the courtyard. With nothing to do, he could only pull out a biography on the bookshelf and read it by the window.

    For a moment, the only sound in the entire courtyard was the swaying of the branches and leaves as the wind blew through the crabapple flowers, occasionally mixed with the sound of one or two pages turning.

    However, he is active and unwilling to be lonely. The little Sirius flapping the bead curtain adds a bit of vitality to the tranquility.

    The Sirius couple seemed to have returned from looking for food. The male Sirius had a fat rabbit in his mouth.The female Sirius called out, and the wolf cub immediately ran over happily.

    In addition to the two wolves returning, he also heard a series of very subtle sounds of boots stepping on grass.

    Wei Lin closed the book in his hand and looked up out of the window. Duan Xi, who had not returned home all night, was already standing in front of him.

    The two looked at each other through a window and smiled at each other for a long time.

    “Finished”

    He put the book on the desk casually, clasped his hands together, and raised his head slightly.

    A strand of hair on the temples slipped down, and Duan Xi reached out to tuck it behind his ear. His movements were natural and smooth, as if he had done it countless times.

    Neither of them felt that there was anything wrong with this action. One was unaware of it, while the other just ignored it.

    Duan Xi naturally picked up his previous topic: “I’m not done yet, but it’s almost done. I don’t need to worry too much about the follow-up matters.”

    He has so many people under his command, but they are not just kept for food.He had to do everything himself, so why did he need them to do it?

    He had always known that chess pieces were planted in Tianmen, and those people were well hidden. Unfortunately, they didn’t know that he specifically allowed them to exist in the first place in order to appease his so-called father’s heart.

    Those chess pieces had been performing their duties properly, so he would not touch them. Unfortunately, these people had already put their hands into his restricted area, which was very annoying.

    Wei Lin saw his calm expression and didn’t ask too much, but changed the topic.

    He said: “What are you going to do with Miss Ning’er?”

    He remembered that Miss Ning’er was mentioned in the original article. She was a typical spoiled eldest lady with a coquettish temper and arrogance.Since her father was the only great master in the tribulation period of Taiheng Sect and was deeply loved by the sect leader, there were many people who usually bullied him.

    Duan Xi also suffered from her abuse when he was a child. Later, Duan Xi’s father engaged him, although Duan Xi never admitted it.

    This Zhao Ning’er is not a difficult person, but the person behind her is not easy to mess with.

    Duan Xi said without thinking: “With her brain, she can’t make any trouble. After a few days, she’s done asking for trouble, and she’ll leave on her own.”

    “Really?” Wei Lin raised his eyebrows, feeling that it might not be that simple.

    Duan Xi stayed in the small courtyard to accompany Wei Lin as always. Seeing that Wei Lin seemed to have nothing to do except reading and sleeping all day long, Duan Xi simply taught him how to play Go.

    I don’t know if Wei Lin is very talented in playing chess. After teaching him two or three games, he was already able to play very well.

    In the next few days, the two of them played chess together, talked about the current situation, and occasionally teased Little Sirius. They lived a relatively comfortable life.

    Zhao Ning’er and the maid were arranged far away from the courtyard. After a few days of commotion, they could not see Duan Xi, and even Chu Jingyun could not be seen.Those disciples also ignored her. Every time she asked where Duan Xi was, she would be told she didn’t know.

    “I don’t know! I don’t know! How could I not know!”

    After going out to look for someone again without success, she was ridiculed openly and covertly. When Zhao Ning’er returned to her residence, she couldn’t help but smashed the blue and white porcelain vase next to the door.

    The maid on the side advised: “Miss, don’t be angry, or the anger will damage your body. Since they won’t tell you where my uncle is, we can go directly to the little bitch, and maybe we can find my uncle.”

    “Look, look, look! Brother Duan Xi protects her so well, where can I find her?” Zhao Ning’er pushed her away, “Stop talking sarcastically to me! Get out of here!”

    The maid was caught off guard and was pushed so hard that she tripped on the carpet and threw the broken porcelain bottle on the ground.

    Before landing, she reacted quickly and supported her body with her hands. Although her whole body was not rolled into the debris, her hands were pricked all over.

    Zhao Ning’er looked at her hands dripping with blood, and a trace of guilt flashed across her face, but she held her neck and snorted, complaining: “You’re so stupid, don’t you know how to avoid it?”

    The maid pursed her lips, and a hint of gloom quickly flashed through her lowered eyes. When she raised her eyes again, she looked submissive again.

    She blamed herself and said: “It was my fault that I frightened the young lady.”

    Zhao Ning’er curled her lips, “You know you scared me, why don’t you go and treat the wound?”

    The maid said weakly, but the moment she turned to leave, Zhao Ning’er suddenly called her.

    “You just said that we can go directly to that little bitch. To hear what you mean, you know where that little bitch is.”

    The maid narrowed her eyes and turned around, “I do know.”

    Zhao Ning’er never thought about why she knew it. Her first reaction was: “You know why you didn’t tell me earlier? It’s because you feel happy to see me being ridiculed by those bitches.”

    He said that he was about to hit her.

    The maid quickly explained: “No, miss, I don’t know where that little bitch is, but someone must know.”

    Zhao Ning’er paused for a moment, “Who?”

    The maid looked around to make sure that no one was watching in the dark, and then whispered in her ear: “Have you forgotten what the elder said?”

    “Great Elder”

    Zhao Ning’er frowned. When she learned that Duan Xi actually brought a wild man back to Tianmen and announced that it was the matter of the Tianmen’s wife, she went crazy. She didn’t pay attention to what the elder told him.

    The maid said: “Miss, think about it carefully.”

    She tried to think back, and the great elder seemed to have mentioned to her that if she encountered something that couldn’t be solved in Tianmen, she should find a way to contact Elder Baiyuan in Tianmen, and he would help her.

    “Yes, I can find him!”

    Zhao Ning’er’s eyes suddenly lit up, and regardless of the maid’s bleeding palms pricked with broken porcelain, she pulled the person outside.

    On the other side, Wei Lin and Duan Xi were playing Go in the pavilion in the courtyard when Tianyi, dressed in black, suddenly appeared in front of them.

    Wei Lin lowered his hand on the chess game and planned to wait until Duan Xi finished handling the matter before continuing.

    Duan Xi looked at Tianyi: “What’s the matter?”

    Tianyi knelt down on one knee and said: “The Yingsong Pavilion seems to have contacted Elder Baiyuan.”

    Duan Xi’s face darkened and she sneered: “So she is really stupid.”

    He told Tian Yi: “Continue to keep an eye on Zhao Ning’er. If there is any movement, remember to report it to me in time.”

    “Yes!”

    Tianyi accepted the order and retreated. Duan Xi turned around, his eyes no longer cold and murderous.

    He said softly to Wei Lin: “Let’s continue.”

    The author has something to say: Zaizai: I just said that daddy loves me!I’m so cute, how could daddy not like me (super loud)
