Li Shiyan's frankness made Zhu Yao not feel so sad, although all this was as she expected, so she was not surprised by this answer, but the moment she said it from Li Shiyan's mouth, she felt more or less in her heart. With a few more thorns, she didn't dare to move or breathe, as if as long as she moved and breathed, the thorn would stick firmly into her heart.
She knew that it must be painful!
It would hurt her life rather than death.
Li Shiyan didn't want to deceive her, so he told her everything in his heart, hoping that she could understand or even understand.
"Miss Zhu, I can't deceive you, I said, as long as you ask, I will know everything, I know that Miss Ji does not have me in her heart, but I don't know what happened to me, I just can't let her go, maybe this kind of thing I feel the same as you, but I won't disturb her, let alone force her. I just want to see her once. I just want to see her once. I don't care about anything else, and as long as she is happy, I will silently bless her. So...hope you do too."
He is telling Zhu Yao in a different way that he likes someone, not forcing, but silently blessing.
Of course Zhu Yao understood this.
She said, "Yes, you're right, what can be good for what is forced? The two sides are reluctant, and it is the two who suffer."
"It's best if you understand."
"Then I'll ask you a second question." Zhu Yao looked at him, took a deep breath, and said, "Can we still be friends?"
Um
Li Shiyan seemed to be stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Zhu Yao to have such a problem, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time. He just stared blankly at Zhu Yao's sincere eyes.
Zhu Yao smiled softly and said, "Actually, I had already figured it out before I came here, but I was still a little unwilling to give up. I had to listen to you and tell me before I stopped. Now that I know and understand, I promise not to. If I pester you again, I will tell my father after I go back, let him cancel the engagement between you and me, and from now on, we will never owe each other."
When she said the words "the two don't owe each other", she didn't mean to be angry, but she was really relieved, and the smile on her face was no longer so sad.
Li Shiyan felt that the girl in front of her had really grown up!
"Miss Zhu, thank you very much."
"Then can we be friends?" Zhu Yao asked again.
The knot in Li Shiyan's heart was also undone immediately, and he said, "Of course, as long as you want, I, Li Shiyan, will treat you as a younger sister for the rest of my life. If anyone dares to bully you, I will avenge you."
He patted his chest.
Zhu Yao pursed her lips and smiled. It was very beautiful. The pale color on her face seemed to gradually fade away, and her complexion was much better. She said, "Okay, then it's settled."
"nature!"
This time, Zhu Yao really let it go. She couldn't ask Li Shiyan to be her cage bird just because she was a caged bird. In that case, she would be too selfish, and this kind of love and marriage is something she doesn't want to have. Maybe Li Shiyan is right, she deserves a person who loves her more, instead of holding on to a love that doesn't belong to her and dying and dying, that kind of life is not what she wants, so now, she has to make a choice by herself, Fly out of the cage.
Let everything take its course.
The knot between the two was unraveled at this time, no matter what their future was, at least at this moment, they were honest with each other.
Outside, Cai'er looked in from time to time, she was worried that her young lady would be sad when she faced the prince. If the prince said something exciting again, I'm afraid the lady would not be able to bear it. What if something happened? Well, how can that be? At that time, she will not be able to explain to the master and wife. I am afraid that she has dozens of lives and is not enough to be punished. When she thinks of this, she becomes even more nervous. The corners of his mouth raised a smile, and the emptiness on his face was greatly reduced, which was completely different from the look he had when he came in.
Therefore, Cai'er was also relieved.
Although I don't know what the young lady said to the prince, as long as the young lady is safe and sound, her uneasy heart can continue to be placed in her stomach.
When she took her eyes back from the inside, she saw a group of people walking towards the backyard outside the hall. The young masters looked like they were from big families, and they all showed a bit of elegance. Presumably, it should be Guests invited by the house.
And those guests went to the backyard with the servant in the house and met Su Ziluo.
"Mr. Su." Several young masters cupped their hands.
Su Ziluo sat in the pavilion in the courtyard, asked them to sit down, and asked, "Why are you here?"
These sons and buddies are well-known poets and scholars in the city. Su Ziluo has always valued those literati, so they often deal with each other.
One of the men in Tsing Yi took up the scroll of paintings and calligraphy that he brought this time, handed it to Su Ziluo, and said, "Mr. Su, I got a good painting in the past two days, and I liked it very much, so I thought Bring it to you, let you palm and eye, if you like it, this painting will be given to you."
Su Ziluo looked at the picture scroll delivered to him, he hesitated for a long time and did not pick it up, and said, "How can I win people's love?"
"Mr. Su, you are very kind. This good painting is naturally worthy of someone who knows painting. Among us, Mr. Su is the only one who knows painting best. If you think this painting is good, I will give it to you. Besides, Mr. Su usually The Four Treasures of the good study have been generously given to us, but now it’s just a painting, I hope you won’t be polite to you, or I won’t be able to accept your things in the future.” The man in Tsing Yi said earnestly.
It was really hard for Su Ziluo to refuse, so he had to take the scroll over and open it. It was a landscape painting. The painting was exquisite, the color was dull, and the strokes and strokes were all in place. The spirituality of the landscape was highlighted. When it comes out, it is lifelike, and when it enters the eye, it seems that the real body is between the mountains and rivers wrapped in clouds and mist...
"It's really a good painting, I don't know whose hand it came from!" Su Ziluo asked.
The man in Tsing Yi said, "A man named Wang Wei painted several pictures, but I only got this one. Since Mr. Su said that this painting is good, it is really good. After I go back, I will send someone to go. Find the remaining couples and bring them to the house together, Mr. Su must not refuse."
Su Ziluo knew that if he didn't accept it, they would not give up, so he nodded as he thought about it, rolled up the painting slowly, and said, "Okay, I'll accept it."
A man in blue next to him suddenly said, "Oh, I've eaten too much this morning and I'm a little uncomfortable. I'll go for a while and come back right away."
The man stood up and cupped his hands, and went for convenience.
Su Ziluo's eyes sank, almost invisible, as if he didn't know anything, he continued to discuss poetry and songs with several other people.
After the man in blue left, he did not go to the thatched hut for convenience. Instead, he slipped into the wing room in the backyard when no one was paying attention. He grabbed a little girl and asked, "By the way, has there been any distinguished guests in the house recently?"
The little girl shook her head, "No!"
"Really not? Think carefully."
The little girl still shook her head, "Young Master Liu, there are really no guests in the mansion, if you say guests, the prince is here today, and Miss Zhu's mansion is here too, and she is in the hall now, and Master Liu, you and a few other sons are here. ."
A sincere face, not like lying.
The blue-clothed man stopped asking to avoid suspicion, smiled and said, "Thank you."
The girl owed her body and left.
Seeing that there were probably no guests in the mansion, the man in blue clothes went back to the pavilion just now. Su Ziluo and a few others were still discussing the painting called Wang Wei, and they were very happy, so no one cared about the blue clothes. man.
They continued chatting and drank a few more cups of tea before ending. Su Ziluo took the painting and ordered someone to send them away. After a while, a servant in the house returned and whispered in Su Ziluo's ear. what.
Su Ziluo made an "en", his eyes tightened suddenly, and ordered, "In the future, when they come back to the mansion, they will come back directly, and they are not allowed to come in again."
"Yes!"
Immediately, Su Ziluo picked up the painting and handed it to the servant, "Send this painting back, and choose a few more calligraphy and painting to send together."
"Little understands." The little servant hugged the painting and hurriedly went to work.
