The next day.
The weather was clear.
After eating breakfast, Lin Yichen brought Bai Su out of the palace in disguise and sat in the carriage he had prepared earlier.
Seeing the horses pulling the carriage, Bai Su couldn't help but think of the danger zone that Mu Yuntian gave her.
It had been so long since he left the palace, that he didn't know if Mu Yuntian had taken the dead zone away, or if he was staying somewhere else.
The carriage they were riding was exactly the same as when they were in Mu Du, it looked simple, low profile yet it was meticulous, and it matched well with Lin Yichen's identity.
On the horse carriage, there was a short table, while Lin Yichen was pouring tea.
Seeing his actions as usual, Bai Su couldn't help but become a little absent-minded.
The one driving the carriage was a young eunuch, he thought about Fei Yu who was once by Yi Chen's side, inseparable from him, and could not help but ask: "Where's Fei Yu? I haven't seen him for a long time. "
Lin Yichen was slightly stiff as he poured the tea.
Without raising his head, he lightly said: "He's still young, so he's not suitable to be a servant in the palace. I sent him to the military to study. "
"Oh." Bai Su nodded, "It's good to be far away from the palace."
Lin Yichen put down the teapot, raised his head, and handed a teacup to Bai Su with a smile in her eyes: "Come, Little White, try the tea that I brewed with my own hands."
"Alright." Bai Su accepted the teacup, blew gently on it, took a sip, smacked her lips, raised her head, and smiled lightly: "The taste is not bad."
Lin Yichen looked at her naive appearance, and could not help but laugh: "You are still as defenseless as before."
Bai Su was slightly stunned.
When she thought about how they first met, and how Yi Chen had poured her a cup of tea on the carriage, she just picked it up and drank it … Yi Chen said, she was not wary of anyone.
Bai Su put down her teacup and smiled lightly: "If you want to harm me, it's useless to defend. Besides, I've been in the palace for so long, you can attack me anytime you want. I'm still alive and well, what's there to be afraid of? "
Lin Yichen poured a cup of tea for himself and took a small sip. He raised his head and looked at Bai Su, and said seriously: "Not everyone is like me, who doesn't hurt you at all …"
"I know." Bai Su glanced at him, "I'm not an idiot. "Just put your heart back in your stomach."
As he spoke, he leaned against the wall of the carriage and crossed his legs. He picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.
After staying in the palace for the past few days, Lin Yichen had seldom seen Bai Su's straightforward and uninhibited side. Now that he had seen him, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curve slightly: "Once you leave the palace, you are like a wild horse who has escaped from its restraints …"
Halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped as his expression changed slightly.
Bai Su put down her teacup and looked over: "What's wrong?"
Lin Yichen was quiet for a moment. "Xiao Bai, I feel that you're really like a wild horse that has escaped from its restraints … It seems that if I blink, you will disappear. "
"…"
Bai Su did not speak.
She didn't know whether it was because she was too excited or not, but she could feel that Lin Yichen had guessed that she was trying to slip away secretly.
The carriage quietened down immediately. Bai Su coughed unnaturally, "You … Where are you taking me? "How much longer do we have to walk?"
Lin Yichen looked out of the window, turned his head and smiled to her: "We're almost there."
The facts proved that Lin Yichen was not lying, and the carriage finally stopped.
Lin Yichen got off first, followed by Bai Su.
It was very empty.
There was a mountain and a river, and also a villa.
This place was clearly no longer on the main streets of the imperial city, but was isolated from the bustling streets of the imperial city.
However, there was a strange sense of familiarity in this place.
Lin Yichen walked a few steps forward, stood at the foot of the mountain villa's doorstep, turned his head, and shouted at Bai Su: "Little White."
Bai Su came back to reality and walked to his side.
Following his gaze, Bai Su saw four large words "Dust Free Villa" on a signboard at the entrance of the Villa.
"Dust Free Villa?" Bai Su turned her head in disbelief, and looked at Lin Yichen, "How did we get to the Dust Free Villa?"
The Mu Clan and the imperial capital of the Venerate Heavens Sect had travelled for at least a few days, so how could they have arrived just like that?
Seeing the unfathomable glint in Lin Yichen's eyes, Bai Su seemed to have realized something.
"This place couldn't be created by imitating Dust Free Villa, right?" She frowned slightly and asked in disbelief.
Lin Yichen did not speak, he only looked at her and smiled gently.
Coincidentally, that warm smile made Bai Su even more certain of her guess.
Carrying a trace of a peculiar feeling, Bai Su walked up the steps and pushed open the Manor's gate.
If it was just a guess in the beginning, then when she truly opened the front door and clearly saw the layout of the villa, all the guesses instantly became reality.
Each flower and each tree was exactly the same as the Dust Free Villa in his memory.
"So beautiful." Bai Su praised as she walked, "This place is as beautiful as when I first saw Dust Free Villa."
Lin Yichen followed behind Bai Su with a smile on his face, maintaining his silence.
She was looking at the scenery, he was looking at her.
In his eyes, Bai Su was the most beautiful scenery.
Suddenly, he took a step forward and held her hand. "Let's go. I'll take you somewhere."
Bai Su struggled, but was not able to struggle free, and was brought along as she ran forward.
Bai Su was a little angry: "Lin Yichen, let me go first."
Lin Yichen did not snort. He still tyrannically pulled her until they arrived outside the pavilion in the garden.
In the middle of the pavilion, there was a stone table, two stone stools, and a zither on the stone table.
Lin Yichen walked into the pavilion and sat down on the stone table. He raised his hand and caressed the zither table, gently pushing it with his long finger to test the sound of the zither.
Bai Su stood outside the pavilion, looked at the person seated on the stone table, and couldn't help but be dumbstruck.
He still remembered that night when Mu Lingfeng locked her up in the woodshed with a high fever, Yi Chen sneaked into the Prince Jin Palace to rescue her, before bringing her to the Dust Free Villa.
That day was the same as today.
She stood outside the pavilion and watched as the fingertips of the people in the pavilion lightly danced, playing a melodious and elegant tune of the zither.
Beautiful man, peerless zither music, magnificent and magnificent, just like a fascinating ink painting.
After finishing the song, Lin Yichen pressed both hands on the zither strings and raised his head to look at Bai Su.
That look was very calm and affectionate.
Bai Su stood in her original position, not moving at all.
Lin Yichen got up and walked over to Bai Su's side.
Just as she was about to hold her hand, she suddenly took a step back.
Lin Yichen's brows slightly knitted.
Their four eyes met, and they seemed to have thousands of words to say, but they didn't know how to express it.
After a short while, Lin Yichen took a step forward and said softly, "Little White, I'll bring you to another place."
Bai Su caught up to him and followed his footsteps.
Everything was so familiar.
There was a creek behind the house, and across the creek was a big flat meadow.
"I'll take you there." Lin Yichen reached out and wrapped his arms around Bai Su's waist, and brought her to fly over the small stream.
Bai Su was startled.
This scene was almost the same as when Yi Chen had first carried her across the small stream at Dust Free Villa.
Suddenly, Bai Su took a step back and said anxiously: "I can go over myself."
Reason told her that since she had already decided to leave, she couldn't get too close to the man in front of her.
I can't be too casual, I can't give him hope, I can't let him misunderstand.
