"No! Miss." After hearing Chen Liuli's words, Xiao Ya was in a hurry. She immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, "Miss, the servant has been serving you for so many years, don't drive the servant away!"
Xiaoya knew in her heart that if she was really driven away, then no master would be willing to take her in. The slaves who were expelled had made big mistakes, and they had absolutely no chance to serve other masters. In the end, they could only do those rough jobs and become the lowest servants.
Seeing Xiaoya's appearance, Chen Liuli's mouth curled into a small smile, she looked very gentle, but the chill in her eyes made people shudder, "Xiaoya, in fact, you've been by my side for so many years, and I'm also reluctant to bear it. Yours. However, no master wants to keep a disobedient slave. Do you understand this truth?"
In normal times, Chen Liuli might not treat Xiaoya like this. However, after this series of events, she no longer had the calmness she had before. In the past, she could still pretend to be gentle and graceful, but now she has no such thoughts.
"The servant understands." Xiaoya nodded again and again, "No matter what the lady says in the future, the servant will do it. I just hope that the lady can always keep the servant by her side."
She never dreamed that the young lady would say such a thing to her one day. But today's events have also taught her a deep lesson, that is, no matter how the young lady treated her before, in the young lady's eyes, she is a slave, an existence that can be replaced at any time.
For a time, Xiao Ya's mood was very complicated.
"Very good." Seeing Xiaoya's obedient appearance, Chen Liuli nodded, "Then you can wait for me to dress up now! I'm going to Qiwuyuan now, and have a look at this young lady of ours."
"Yes, ma'am."
After this, Xiao Ya didn't dare to say any more. She knew that if she continued to obstruct her, the young lady would definitely drive her away.
Soon, Chen Liuli had already re-dressed, left Liuliyuan, and walked in the direction of Qiwuyuan.
However, before reaching Qiwuyuan, Chen Liuli met an unexpected person, but she was the one she most wanted to see.
"Young Master Xuanyuan." Seeing the arrogant man in front of her, Chen Liuli's eyes were full of admiration. She stepped forward, bent her knees slightly, and said, "Where are you going?"
She never thought that she was only planning to go to Qiwuyuan to see the so-called young lady, and of course, she would have to give her a slap in the face. However, before arriving at Qiwuyuan, he met Young Master Xuanyuan. Could it be that this is the fate in the dark
"Miss Chen." Compared with Chen Liuli's enthusiasm, Xuanyuan Lang seemed very indifferent. He just nodded and said, "Just walking around, Miss Chen's injury should be much better!"
He also did not expect to meet Chen Liuli here. However, since they have already met, it is natural to say hello. Although the two are not familiar with each other, this is the Chen family, and this Chen Liuli still has a certain status in the Chen family.
"Young Master Xie Xuanyuan is concerned, Liuli's injury has gotten better." Hearing Xuanyuan Lang's words, Chen Liuli's face couldn't help showing a hint of joy, she smiled shyly, "I wonder if Young Master Xuanyuan has time, I have something to think about. Talk to the young master."
At the moment of seeing Xuanyuan Lang, Chen Liuli's heart was already about to move. She couldn't help thinking that Xiaoya had told her before that Xuanyuan Lang had asked about her injury. Now that she felt Xuanyuanlang's concern again, in her heart, she felt that in fact Xuanyuanlang still had feelings for her. So she made a decision.
"Now?" After hearing Chen Liuli's words, Xuanyuan Lang frowned, "I'm going to Qiwuyuan now, and I plan to meet Murong Qingyan."
"Qiwuyuan?" As soon as she heard the name, Chen Liuli's eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of jealousy, but in front of Xuanyuan Lang, of course, it was impossible for her to show such emotions, and the corners of her mouth twitched. He smiled, looking gentle and elegant, "It turns out that Young Master Xuanyuan is also going to see his cousin! Did the Young Master and his cousin know each other before?"
Although there was nothing strange on his face, Chen Liuli's heart was already full of hatred for Murong. In her opinion, if it wasn't for the appearance of Murong Qingyan, now the head of the family and several elders would not turn a blind eye to her. Now even the man she likes has to visit Murong Qingyan. Where is this Murong Qingyan
"We were all at Qinglong College before." Xuanyuan Lang said indifferently, "I met here this time, so I want to say hello."
There was no superfluous expression on Xuanyuan Lang's face, making it difficult to see his true inner thoughts.
However, after hearing Xuanyuan Lang's words, Chen Liuli breathed a sigh of relief, because she didn't feel any of Xuanyuan Lang's admiration for Murong's face, she said with a smile, "Cousin has been in Qiwuyuan, and again I won't run away, so there is no need for Young Master Xuanyuan to be in such a hurry. I have something very important to tell the Young Master, and I hope the Young Master can give me some time."
Now that a decision has been made, Chen Liuli does not want to miss an opportunity like today. Take advantage of her courage now, otherwise, after today, she doesn't know if she still has the courage and opportunity to speak her heart.
Seeing Chen Liuli's eager look, Xuanyuan Lang was not easy to refuse, he nodded, "Well, I don't know what Miss Chen is going to say?"
Although Xuanyuan Lang was a little upset by being disturbed, he was in the Chen family now, and Chen Liuli also had a certain status in the Chen family. Now that the host has said something to say, as a guest, it is really difficult to refuse.
Soon, Xuanyuan Lang and Chen Liuli came to the garden, and the two sat down in a pavilion.
After sitting down, Chen Liuli waved her hand and asked Xiaoya to step back first.
After what happened before, Xiaoya is now obedient to Chen Liuli. Moreover, in her heart, she is also very clear about her young lady's intentions for Young Master Xuanyuan, so she does not want to disturb him here. In case there is a time, if something goes wrong, the lady will let her get angry again.
Xuanyuan Lang didn't think much about Chen Liuli's actions. In the world of cultivators, the defense against men and women is not so strict. So although the two are sitting in the gazebo, it doesn't matter.
After sitting down, Chen Liuli kept looking at Xuanyuan Lang secretly, not knowing how to speak. Although she had already made up her mind to express her thoughts to Xuanyuan Lang today. However, she is a girl's family after all, so it is inevitable that she will feel shy. For a while, she didn't know how to speak.
After about a cup of tea, Xuanyuan Lang couldn't bear it any longer. He frowned, looked at Chen Liuli, and said, "Miss Chen, didn't you say you have something to tell me? Then just say it. ."
He really didn't understand, the person who said something to talk to him before was Chen Liuli. But now the two of them have sat here for a cup of tea, but Chen Liuli still hasn't spoken, just looking at him secretly. He really didn't have such a mood to sit here with Chen Liuli.
Moreover, what annoyed him the most was that Chen Liuli kept peeking at him, which made him feel a sense of disgust.
Chen Liuli was almost startled when she heard Xuanyuan Lang's sudden opening. She raised her head and looked at Xuanyuan Lang, her eyes were full of admiration. After she took a deep breath, she finally gritted her teeth and said. "Young Master Xuanyuan, what do you think of me?"
For a long time, Xuanyuan Lang has been focusing on the cultivation path. He paid little attention to other things, and he had no experience in the relationship between men and women. So he didn't see Chen Liuli's admiration for him.
After hearing Chen Liuli's question, he nodded and said, "You are fine."
Of course, Xuanyuan Lang said these words only on the basis of a courtesy.
"Really?" Chen Liuli did not see the perfunctory expression on Xuanyuan Lang's face at all. After hearing Xuanyuan Lang's words, her eyes lit up, and two blushes rose on her face, making her whole person look like Just like a delicate flower, she raised her head, glanced at Xuanyuan Lang, smiled shyly, and said, "In this way, Young Master Xuanyuan has a good opinion of me. Young Master Xuanyuan, in fact, has always been Since then, I have admired you, I... I like you very much."
After speaking, Chen Liuli lowered her head directly, not even daring to look at Xuanyuan Lang again. She had never confessed to a man so boldly before.
Although she has always liked Xuanyuan Lang very much. But based on her pride, she never thought of confessing first. But now that so many things have happened, she feels that she has no way to wait any longer.
Xuanyuan Lang was already old enough to start a family and start a business. She felt that if she continued to be reserved, she would have nothing to do with her. Now that she knew that Xuanyuan Lang also liked her, she felt that she should be more brave to confess.
"What?" Xuanyuan Lang frowned, as if he couldn't believe his ears, "You said, you... you like me?"
He never thought that what Chen Liuli wanted to say to him would be these things. For a while, he really couldn't react. Speaking of which, he and Chen Liuli only met a few times. He never thought that Chen Liuli would confess to him.
"Young Master Xuanyuan, you can hear clearly, why are you pretending to be stupid here?" Now that she has said it, Chen Liuli has nothing to be ashamed of. She raised her head and looked at Xuanyuan Lang, He continued to speak, "Young Master Xuanyuan, I know that you also have a good impression of me. I know that this time, it doesn't seem good for me to speak first. However, I feel that it is not a good idea to express my inner feelings bravely. Thinking about it is also a good thing. However, Young Master Xuanyuan, although I said the confession first, I still want you to mention the marriage proposal."
As long as you take the first step, the next words will be much easier to say. Chen Liuli felt that since she had already dared to confess, Xuanyuan Lang had a good impression of her and would definitely agree.
As long as Xuanyuan Lang went to propose marriage to the Patriarch, the Patriarch would definitely agree. At that time, she was the young lady of the Xuanyuan family. What happened before, absolutely no one will mention it again, and she can still live a beautiful life. Moreover, she can live happily with the person she likes day and night.
Just when Chen Liuli was still daydreaming, Xuanyuan Lang poured a basin of cold water without hesitation, "Sorry, Miss Chen, I'll treat it as if I've never heard of it today."
"What?" Chen Liuli couldn't react for a while, but when she understood the meaning of this sentence, her whole face turned pale, "Young Master Xuanyuan, what do you mean? You are— "Reject me
Chen Liuli couldn't say the last few words. She couldn't accept it, and she finally summoned up the courage to confess, but she was rejected. Besides, didn't Young Master Xuanyuan also have a good impression of her? Why would you reject her outright like this
"Miss Chen, I think I've made my words very clear." Seeing Chen Liuli's pale face, Xuanyuan Lang showed no pity, he still said coldly, "I don't have anything special for you. Feelings, I will not go to propose marriage to the Chen family. As for what happened today, I will treat it as it has never happened. "
He really didn't know, what happened to him today? Suddenly, he would meet Chen Liuli and confess to him. However, in the face of Chen Liuli's confession, there was no trace of waves in his heart. As for this Chen Liuli, in his heart, he was almost like a stranger.
"Young Master Xuanyuan, don't you like me too?" Chen Liuli's lips didn't have a trace of blood, she looked at Xuanyuan Lang in shock, with a hint of choking in her tone, "Just now, don't you feel me too? Is it good? Also, you are still worried about my injury. Doesn't this mean that you actually have me in your heart? If so, why are you rejecting me?"
After hearing Chen Liuli's words, Xuanyuan Lang's brows furrowed even tighter, "Miss Chen, I think you have misunderstood. I asked about your injury, and the words I just said were just polite. I still have something to do. Just left."
After speaking, Xuanyuan Lang turned and left without hesitation. He doesn't have any feelings for Chen Liuli, and naturally he doesn't want to drag things around here.
Looking at the back of Xuanyuan Lang's heartless departure, Chen Liuli's heart was like broken glass, and she could feel the pain coming from her heart. She couldn't believe what happened today. She finally confessed to the person she liked, but the final result was not the mutual love she thought, but was rejected mercilessly.
She felt that she had no face at all now.
"Miss, are you alright!" At this time, Xiaoya came back. She saw Chen Liuli's appearance with worry on her face, "Is your wound hurting again? I'll go to the pharmacist now."
When Xuanyuan Lang and Chen Liuli were talking just now, she didn't wait at all. She came over after seeing Xuanyuan Lang leave. However, I didn't expect that as soon as I approached, I saw my young lady's face with a battered and ashen face. This had to worry her.
"Come back to me." Seeing that Xiaoya was about to go to the pharmacist, Chen Liuli's cold words sounded, "Don't go, and I'm not allowed to say anything about my meeting with Young Master Xuanyuan today."
Chen Liuli only felt that she really lost all face now. However, she will not let anyone know what happened today. She must not allow herself to lose face in front of everyone.
"Understood, miss." Xiaoya didn't dare to act rashly when she heard Chen Liuli's cold words, she immediately stopped.
She could see that the relationship between the young lady and Young Master Xuanyuan was not pleasant. Although I don't know what the two of them said, the lady is definitely not happy. In the past, she would have dared to ask, but now facing such an uncertain young lady, she really did not dare to say more.
At this moment, Chen Liuli's eyes flashed with humiliation. For a long time, in the Chen family, she has always been the arrogant daughter of heaven. Because of the love of the head of the family and the three elders, even the descendants must give her three points. But now, she was rejected mercilessly.
However, although she has been rejected, she will not give up because of it. Regardless of whether Xuanyuan Lang likes her or not, she must marry Xuanyuan Lang. She will definitely become the young lady of the Xuanyuan family and the future mistress.
Thinking of this, Chen Liuli's eyes flashed with determination.
Seeing Chen Liuli's appearance, Xiaoya felt a little scared in her heart. For some unknown reason, after so many things, she felt that the young lady had changed a lot. Just now, the young lady was still cloudy. But in just a while, the frustration on the young lady's face has all disappeared, but the whole person still looks gloomy, a bit scary.
"Xiaoya, let's go, let's go to Qiwuyuan now." Chen Liuli got up and said, "Let's go see my cousin now."
Although what happened just now had hit her very hard, she did not forget what she came out for at this time. Now that she has come out, she must go to meet this Murong Qingyan today.
"Do you still want to go?" Xiaoya was a little surprised after hearing Chen Liuli's order.
Originally, she thought that after a lot of things happened, the young lady didn't plan to go to Qiwuyuan again. Now that she thinks about it, she thinks too much. The current thinking of the young lady is not something she can casually speculate.
"What? Can't I go yet?" Chen Liuli gave Xiaoya a cold look, "Or, do you still want to stop me?"
After hearing Chen Liuli's words, Xiaoya's face turned pale, and she quickly said, "Slave doesn't dare."
At this time, in the Qiwu courtyard, Murong Qingyan was basking in the sun in the courtyard. On the other hand, Huangfu Jue sat next to her, quietly looking at her demure face, her eyes full of tenderness.
Such a scene, as long as anyone who sees it, is absolutely reluctant to interrupt.
However, such a warm scene has not been able to continue.
"Miss Biao, Miss Liuli came over and said she wanted to see you." A maid stood in front of Murong's face and said respectfully.
Since Murong Qingyan moved into this Qiwu Courtyard, Chen Shanghua also sent a lot of people to serve him, but in normal times, Murong Qingyan doesn't need anyone to serve him. So these maids are just reporting letters or helping to clean up.
"Chen Liuli?" Murong's eyes flashed with interest.
Speaking of which, she and Chen Liuli had met several times before. The two of them had a good relationship before. However, after so much has happened, not necessarily. Chen Liuli came here at this time, I am afraid that the visitor is not good!
"Yes, do you want to see Miss Biao?"
"Since people have come, please come in!" Murong said lightly, "Otherwise, others should say that I am arrogant and arrogant."
Soon, Chen Liuli walked to the place where Murong Qingyan was. The moment she saw Murong's face, her eyes were full of jealousy.
For a long time, Chen Liuli knew that this Qiwuyuan was a forbidden place for the Chen family, and no one was allowed to enter it without the order of the head of the family. Originally, she could comfort herself. Although it was a forbidden place, this Qiwuyuan had been abandoned for so long, so it was not a good place. But the scenery along the way made huge waves in her heart.
Every grass and tree in this Qiwu Courtyard is incomparably delicate, even more so than her Liuli Courtyard. Not only that, the area of this Qiwu Courtyard is almost twice that of Liuli Courtyard. It can be said that in front of Qiwuyuan, her Liuliyuan is almost incomparable.
Her heart was full of jealousy, but she was just a young lady who ran out halfway. How could she be qualified to live in this Qiwu Courtyard. All along, the head of the family and several elders love her so much, and she has never entered this Qiwuyuan for half a step. Now this Murong Qingyan has only been here for a long time, and he actually moved in directly.
When she saw the true face of Murong's face, the jealousy in her heart deepened. I had long heard that this Murong Qingyan was somewhat similar to her, but when she really saw Murong Qingyan's face, she actually felt ashamed. It's as if a fake came to the real one.
