The candle flame in the room swayed slightly.

Wen Jiu looked back at him, and asked in a slightly surprised tone, "Brother, why have you come at this time?"

The Yongle Workshop next door was long and unhurried, the sounds of joyous laughter unceasing, causing her to forget that it was already late at night.

The youth leaned on the door and looked at her. "You're quite bold. Don't you feel lonely staying here alone at night?"

"It's .. it's alright."

Wen Jiu raised a hand to feel the tip of his nose and said in a low voice: "I see that these are all silver, with them accompanying me, I do not feel lonely."

After Xie Heng heard this, he could not help but smile, "Is the silver more important or is your life more important?"

Wen Jiu answered without even thinking, "It's all important."

As the voice faded, their gazes met.

The night wind whistled outside the door, blowing the youth's sleeves so elegantly that they seemed to fly away, and the dim light from the lamp dyed his eyes red.

Xie Heng slowly walked over and lowered his eyes to look at her, "Young Madame, you seem to be slightly lacking in discipline."

Wen Jiu was startled. "What?"

Was she hallucinating?

Could it be that Xie Heng took the wrong medicine?

"Say what you just said again."

The young man's voice was lowered by a few points, and it was slightly bewitching for no reason.

Wen Jiu hesitated for a moment before honestly repeating, "... Both are important? "

Xie Heng spoke in a deep voice, "What did you say?"

"Around .."

Wen Jiu was unable to figure out what this youth was thinking, the corners of his eyes slightly raised, "Silver is more important .."

"Wen Jiu!"

Xie Heng was so angry that he laughed.

"Your life is more important!"

At least Wen Jiu knew what answer the youth wanted to hear, and immediately changed his tone: "Naturally, my life is more important."

She muttered to herself, "You're already dead, how can you earn silver? Naturally, your life is more important."

Xie Heng took off his cape and wrapped it around her, then directly held her up horizontally.

Wen Jiu was so shocked that he did not know how to react, his body stiffly nestled into the youth's embrace.

A melodious sound rang out in the wind as Xiao Xiao's fallen leaves brushed across her face.

The youth carried her as he flew across the long street like the wind. He whispered into her ear, "I really shouldn't have said all this nonsense to you."

It was the most direct way of leaving.

Wen Jiu, "..."

Why did she suddenly think that her elder brother would throw her into the trash?

The servant outside was stunned for a moment before he shut the door.

Outside the General's Mansion door.

Wen Jiu grabbed the youth's arm, "Elder brother .. Put me down. "

Along the way, the night wind blew, gradually waking her up. This youth was too reckless. Every time she encountered such a situation, she would feel dizzy and lost her sense of propriety.

Hearing that, Xie Heng was startled, but immediately let go.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly and jumped down to stand firmly before falling in front of the manor gate.

Wen Jiu's expression was somewhat subtle, "Elder brother .." Are you serious?

Xie Heng stood with his hands behind his back, "You asked me to let it go."

Wen Jiu, "..."

All right.

You have a point.

The cape was still wrapped around her body. Xie Heng carried her all the way, but he didn't have any physical contact whatsoever.

At most, he just treated her like his own sister.

The doors to the residence opened at this moment. The attendant's maids walked up to them with lanterns in their hands. "The general and the Young Madame have returned."

Wen Jiu rubbed the tip of his nose, "Elder brother, after you."

Inwardly, he could not help but curse himself: Look at how sentimental you are!

The hall had prepared food, and Wen Jiu was initially not hungry while staying in the wine cellar, but the moment he smelled the fragrance, he could not help but feel hungry.

Xie Heng sat opposite to her, eating his meal leisurely while occasionally glancing at her.

Wen Jiu felt a little embarrassed looking at him, so she asked casually: "Is elder brother not going to have dinner?"

Xie Heng slightly raised his brows: "I'm a little hungry watching you eat."

Was this meant to say that she didn't look good when she ate?

The Xie Family was a famous family, even for a young master like Xie Heng who carried the temperament of a playboy, his demeanor and demeanor was first-rate.

Wen Jiu naturally could not compare.

She couldn't help but slow down her pace and eat slowly. The candlelight on the table shrouded their faces.

The night was silent, and even the soft sounds became exceptionally clear.

Xie Heng looked at her for a long time, and after a long time, to the point where Wen Jiu was barely able to hold onto his chopsticks anymore, the young man finally opened his mouth.

He asked Wen Jiu, "Do you have anything that you particularly like?"

"What?"

Wen Jiu couldn't react in time.

Xie Heng slightly paused, and then said sincerely and seductively: "You want what you see at first glance?"

Wen Jiu replied without hesitation: "Silver."

Xie Heng facepalmed, "Other than silver, is there anything else?"

How did such a fine girl get into the eyes of money?

"Except for the silver .."

Wen Jiu looked at the youth for a moment, thought very seriously, and said: "Does the gold count?"

Xie Heng rubbed his chin, not saying a word.

The youth was somewhat suspicious. Was his General's Mansion so poor that he could not afford to eat?

Otherwise, why would the Miss Wen look like he was holding onto the silver for his entire life?

The maids waiting at the side of the table could not help but laugh. Jin Er reminded them in a low voice: "Young Madame, you should at least talk about something that ordinary people would like .."

"Oh."

Wen Jiu reacted and said casually: "I was just casually saying it earlier, so there is no need for brother to take it seriously. "Actually, I didn't have anything that I particularly liked .."

Other than silver, there was really nothing else that he liked.

She racked her brain for a long time before thinking of one. "When she was young, she liked to put out lights. She even liked to use the orange lamp and the lotus lamp. Elder brother, is this worth it?"

"Yes!"

The youth suddenly stood up. "That's it."

Wen Jiu was shocked by his sudden action, he leaned on the back of the chair and asked, "Brother Yun?"

What kind of medicine was this?

"I'm just asking."

Xie Heng raised his eyebrows, "Nothing else."

These words sounded like 'three hundred taels of silver'.

The corner of Wen Jiu's mouth twitched, "Brother .. As long as elder brother is happy. "

She wanted to get up, but she suddenly felt that the accumulated food in her stomach was a bit uncomfortable. She shouldn't have eaten so late in the first place.

It wasn't good for Wen Jiu to show his discomfort in front of Xie Heng, so he forced it back.

Xie Heng looked down at her condescendingly, and suddenly said: "You leave early and return late every day, and still want me to be happy?"

Wen Jiu, "..."

She just said it casually.

Why did this person suddenly turn out to be a real person?

"You are not allowed to go out before daybreak in the future. You must go home before nightfall."

The youth put on a handsome face and said, "Otherwise, I will punish you."

Wen Jiu had a headache, and said helplessly: "Brother Chang, when you went to court, it was still dark."

She knew that she had been busy these past two days, and that she had not been able to reach home.

If a person sat at home and the silver could fall from the sky, then no one would worry about the silver.

Xie Heng looked at her, his almond-shaped eyes half-closed, with a hint of danger in them. "If I let you travel all day to support your family, wouldn't you just end up as a brother?"
