The Villain Always Wants To Kill Me - Chapter 60

A dim yellow lamp exudes a dim light.

Tao Jingyi rested his chin on his hands, like a chicken pecking at rice, and nodded his head little by little. Every time he was about to touch the table, he suddenly raised his head and rubbed his eyes.

The lamp oil is running out little by little, and the paper is full of words…

Before Tao Jingyi’s head drooped down again, Duan Feibai put down the pen, flicked a finger wind with his fingers, and landed on her sleeping hole.

Tao Jingyi lay down on the table.

Duan Feibai stretched out his hand and placed it on the table, so that Tao Jingyi fell into his arms.

Duan Feibai hugged her, staring down at her cheeks reflected in the light.

He did it on purpose.

He ordered the Anshenxiang in the inn, and he knew that once Dongfang Yue caught them, they would be locked up together and punished for copying the gate rules.

As long as he can be alone with her, copying these family rules is nothing. However, he is a coward, so far he has only dared to stand in front of her with Duan Wushuang’s face on his face.

He didn’t know if she would still smile at him like this after Duan Feibai’s identity was restored.

He dare not bet.

He can only approach her in this way humble and greedy.

Duan Feibai lowered his head, closed his eyes, and pressed a deep kiss on Tao Jingyi’s forehead.

Tao Jingyi slept until dawn, the oil lamp on the table had been burned out, and the skylight leaked in through the window, covering Duan Feibai’s cheeks. The ink in the inkstone was exhausted, and there were two stacks of thick papers in front of him, each piece of paper was filled with neat words.

Tao Jingyi rubbed his eyes, apologetic: “I’m sorry, little uncle, I fell asleep.”

“If you feel sleepy, go back and catch up on sleep.” Duan Feibai said softly.

When Dongfang Yue was flipping through the two stacks of thick papers in front of her, Tao Jingyi’s heart almost rose to her throat because of her guilty conscience, while Duan Feibai, on the other hand, looked calm and confident.

Dongfang Yue turned the pages carefully, page by page. With his level of care, even a wrong word could not escape his eyes.

Tao Jingyi pointed to the door regulations written by Duan Feibai with his left hand, and said in a low voice, “Eldest brother, this is mine.”

Dongfang Yue’s eyes showed admiration: “The handwriting is gentle and correct, not bad.”

Tao Jingyi blushed in embarrassment.

Duan Feibai looked at her with a smile on his face: “Then, how about my writing, Nephew Dongfang?”

“Although the pen is full of momentum, it is too sharp and exposed, and it is a little impetuous.”

Duan Feibai smiled even deeper.

Tao Jingyi knew that he was making fun of Dongfang Yue, so he quickly winked at him, but don’t just overturn the car just because he was playing. Dongfang Yue’s heart is as thin as a hair, so he might be able to deceive for a while, but not for the rest of his life. When he realizes, it will be them who are unlucky.

Fortunately, Dongfang Yue didn’t go into the details, he raised his head and said to the two of them: “I let you off this time, I won’t be an example.”

“I promise I won’t be an example!” Tao Jingyi patted his chest and said.

“Understood.” Duan Feibai plucked his ears boredly.

In another month, it will be the martial arts conference that Xia Mingyuan mentioned.

The Martial Arts Conference is held every five years. The leader of the Qin League has stood out in the Martial Arts Conference 15 years ago and has been re-elected for three terms so far. This year’s martial arts conference was held in Junzi Mountain. The leader of the Qin alliance intends to choose a young handsome man to replace him as the leader, so he spread the hero posts and invited all the knights in the world to participate.

This hero post was quickly sent to Xijian Pavilion.

Since young talents from all over the world are being invited, Duan Feibai, as the leader of the Tianshan School, will naturally attend this martial arts conference, and he will also attend as a popular candidate for the leader of the martial arts.

He is known as “the master of both qin and sword”, and it is said that he never leaves his qin and sword. That is to say, he will definitely bring his qin and sword with him when he attends the martial arts conference this time.

If you want to steal his zither and sword, this is the best chance.

As a new disciple, Tao Jingyi has not yet achieved the top three results in the entrance examination, so it is obviously impossible to represent Xijiange to participate in this martial arts conference.

After weighing it over and over again, she decided to find the little uncle to see if it would be convenient.

The little uncle, who has always been very powerful, said to her this time: “The pavilion master has given Dongfang Yue the full authority to decide the quota for participating in the martial arts conference, and I have no choice.”

“Nephew Dongfang has always treated you differently, why don’t you intercede with him.” The younger uncle’s tone was a little sour.

Tao Jingyi frowned, if Dongfang Yue was really so easy to talk to, she wouldn’t have to come to my little uncle.

“Why would Tao Tao want to participate in the martial arts conference? Doesn’t it mean that she also wants to show off?” He knew that she was hiding in Xijian Pavilion to avoid his “enemies”. For this martial arts conference, one should know without asking, that her “enemy” will definitely attend, but she volunteered to attend, not knowing what her plan was.

This time even Duan Feibai couldn’t figure out what she was thinking.

“I heard that heroes from all over the world are gathered in the martial arts conference, so I really want to see their demeanor.” Tao Jingyi found any reason and prevaricated.

The bright moon was in the sky, the moonlight was like frost, and the moon-watching pavilion was brightly lit. It was still early, and Dongfang Yue was usually still reading in the study at this time.

Tao Jingyi held a plate of red bean cakes and knocked on Dongfang Yue’s door.

Seeing that it was her, Dongfang Yue was slightly surprised: “It’s so late, what’s the matter?”

“I’ll bring some supper to senior brother.” Tao Jingyi put the pastry in front of him.

Dongfang Yue nodded: “Junior sister has a heart.”

After Tao Jingyi put down the cake, he didn’t leave.

Dongfang Yue looked at her suspiciously.

Tao Jingyi frowned, smiled flatteringly and said, “I’ll accompany senior brother to read, if senior brother needs me, just ask.”

Dongfang Yue was startled, and said: “No need, you go back and rest.”

“I’ll grind ink for senior brother.” Tao Jingyi picked up the ink ingot.

Dongfang Yue had no choice but to ignore her, spread out a piece of paper, and picked up the Zihao on the table.

Tao Jingyi took a sneak peek and said in a low voice, “Eldest senior brother is planning to participate in the list of martial arts tournaments?”

“En.” Dongfang Yue responded lightly, her brows were slightly frowned, and she fell into deep thought.

“I wonder if senior brother has a candidate in mind?”

The list of candidates is generally divided into escorts and participants. As the name suggests, escorts are escorts, while participants are directly participating in the competition for the leader of the martial arts alliance, and the requirements are higher.

Dongfang Yue stopped holding the pen and looked up at her.

Tao Jingyi put down the ink ingot and pointed to himself: “Elder brother, look at me.” Before Dongfang Yue could speak, Tao Jingyi began to list his own advantages, “I can do laundry, make beds, make quilts, cook, and martial arts. Although it’s not good, but it’s more than enough to be a bodyguard for senior brother, why don’t you choose me as an escort, I promise not to embarrass Xijiange.”

Dongfang Yue put down his pen: “Why do you want to participate in the martial arts conference? You have to know that this martial arts conference is not only attended by the Xijiange Club, even the Tianshan faction…”

“Eldest senior brother?” Tao Jingyi’s heart trembled, he didn’t understand why Dongfang Yue mentioned Tianshan School, he seemed to know his taboo.

“I recognized you on the first day you came to Xijiange. Even if you were wearing a veil and making yourself look ugly, I believe that if that person sees you, he will be like me, and he will recognize you at a glance. Recognize. Since you have gone through all kinds of hardships to enter Xijian Pavilion to hide from him, why did you expose yourself in front of him?” Dongfang Yue said surprisingly.

Tao Jingyi was full of astonishment and was speechless for a long time.

“Have you figured it out? Or do you insist on participating in this martial arts conference?” After a while, Dongfang Yue asked again.

From the first day, he recognized Tao Jingyi as the “Su Xiyan” who died in the Red Maple Villa Incident. No matter how she survived, since she had changed her name and surname to gain a new life, he did not expose her. Instead, because of the arrow at the Longquan Inn back then, he felt a little guilty towards her, let her enter the Wangyue Pavilion, and secretly protected her, which can be regarded as repaying his debts back then.

But he couldn’t figure it out just like Duan Feibai, why she insisted on participating in this martial arts conference since she obviously couldn’t avoid Duan Feibai.

Tao Jingyi had many thoughts in her mind, but the word “go home” was still the one she couldn’t get rid of. She took a deep breath and nodded, “I’ve thought it through, please make it easier for me, big brother.”

Dongfang Yue picked up the pen again, and this time added the word “Tao Jingyi” to the list.

“Thank you, senior brother!” Tao Jingyi didn’t expect things to go so smoothly, so excited for a moment, he clenched his fists and walked behind Dongfang Yue, “Big brother, you’ve worked hard, I’ll beat your back for you.”

Unexpectedly, Dongfang Yue stood up abruptly, as if getting an electric shock, and bumped into the corner of the table. With a “pop”, even the ink on the table was knocked over.

His face turned blue and white, as if he was extremely uncomfortable, turned his head away, hiding his embarrassment, and said quickly: “No need, junior sister.”

Although Tao Jingyi had the idea of ​​stealing the piano and sword, he followed Xijiange and other handsome men to participate in the martial arts competition with shamelessness, but when he really arrived at Junzi Mountain, he hesitated again, and he didn’t even dare to attend the dinner in the lobby.

This dinner gathers elites from all factions, and with Duan Feibai’s reputation, he will definitely become the focus of everyone. Even if Tao Jingyi went, he might not be able to get close to him.

The twilight gradually shrouded, and in the villa, the lanterns were lit one after another, and after a while, a round of bright moon rose in the vast sky.

The radiance of the bright moon fell on every corner of Moli Villa. The windows of the room were half open. Tao Jingyi sat in front of the window, bathed in the cool moonlight.

There was a knock on the door, Tao Jingyi came back to his senses, turned around and asked, “Who?”

“Miss Tao, the younger one is bringing you dinner.”

“Come in.”

The door was pushed open, a young man walked in lightly, and closed the door behind him.

Tao Jingyi met his gaze and said in surprise, “Xia Mingyuan, why is it you?”

“I said, I will find a way to sneak in, why, I didn’t lie to you.” The boy put down the food in his hand with a look of color on his face.

“How did you get in here?”

“In such a big villa, with so many mouths, I must eat. I just spent some money and sneaked into the kitchen.” Xia Mingyuan lowered his voice and frowned, “I wanted to take some medicine, but think about it, here There are so many masters, so let’s forget about it if you can’t hide it from them. Eat quickly, it’s easy to do things when you’re full.”

Tao Jingyi walked to the table and picked up the chopsticks.

Xia Mingyuan walked to the window, closed the window, and said in a low voice: “I have already found out that Duan Feibai lives in Lanyue Xiaozhu. They are drinking in the lobby right now. I went to see his piano. I didn’t bring the sword with me, so I must have put it in Lanyue Xiaozhu.”

Tao Jingyi took a few mouthfuls of rice, put down the bowl, got up and said, “Let’s go.”

Xia Mingyuan was right, now is the best time to steal the piano and sword without colliding with Duan Feibai. As for taking blood, let’s talk about getting things first.

Under the cover of the shadow of the tree, the two sneaked to Lanyue Xiaozhu all the way.

All sects and factions gathered in the front yard. At this time, Lanyue Xiaozhu was quiet and there was no one, which was very convenient for them to do things.

There were not many people sent by Tianshan this time, and Duan Feibai was the head of Tianshan Sect, so naturally he lived in the best room.

“This is the one.” Xia Mingyuan said.

There was a brass lock on the door, Tao Jingyi dialed it, and said, “I don’t have a key, what should I do?”

“Look what this is.” Xia Mingyuan took out a bunch of keys like a magic trick.

“Where did you get so many keys?” Tao Jingyi was surprised.

“Money can turn ghosts.” Xia Mingyuan found the one he wanted from a bunch of keys, bent over to unlock it, “I spent some money and bought a spare key from the manager of Moli Villa.”

Tao Jingyi’s face darkened. Sure enough, wherever you go, you can do things with money.

While the two were talking, there was a “click”, and the copper lock was pushed open. Tao Jingyi and Xia Mingyuan stepped into the house and closed the door. The room was pitch black, and nothing could be seen clearly.

Not long after, a candle lit up in front of his eyes. It turned out that Xia Mingyuan had lit the residual candle on the table.

“Not much time, hurry up and find it.” He said.

Tao Jingyi nodded, turned around and searched the room.

Duan Feibai’s paulownia qin is very big, and it should be very conspicuous if placed in the room. His sword is usually hidden in the body of the qin. If you find the qin, you can also find the sword.

She first touched the side of the bed, lifted the quilt, and turned it over, but she didn’t find the piano, but she found a broken mahogany hairpin from under the pillow.

This mahogany hairpin was broken into two pieces, and the breaks were uneven, with a dark red color.

Tao Jingyi put the hairpin in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully, feeling that it looked familiar. It should be a semi-finished product, not finished yet, but the style is similar to the one Duan Feibai gave to Su Xiyan.

“Is there any on the bed?” Xia Mingyuan asked behind her.

Tao Jingyi regained consciousness, put the hairpin back under the pillow, shook his head, “No.”

“It’s strange, I searched every corner of the house, but there is nothing.” Xia Mingyuan asked doubtfully.

“Have you looked at the cabinet?” Tao Jingyi asked.

There was only one cabinet in the room, which was placed against the wall, and the cabinet was locked. The eyes of both of them fell on this cabinet. It seemed that the only possibility was this cabinet.

Naturally, there was no spare key for the lock on the cabinet. Tao Jingyi took out the dagger, and with an internal force in his hand, he slashed towards the lock.

“Someone is here, let’s go.” Xia Mingyuan said suddenly, then turned and ran towards the window.

At this time, it is impossible to go out from the main entrance.

Tao Jingyi also ran to the window.

Below the window was a river. With a “plop”, Xia Mingyuan jumped into the river, and his figure disappeared without a trace in the splash of water.

Tao Jingyi stood in front of the window sill, hesitating.

She can’t water.

The river below looked dark in the night, with no depth. Just because of her hesitation, the door was suddenly pushed open.

Tao Jingyi looked up, met Duan Feibai who was standing by the door, froze for a moment, and forgot to run away.
