For example, the man in front, who was walking slowly with a subordinate, fanning himself and thinking he was very cool.
Ximuyan was handsome, dressed in a white robe, with a gentle smile on his face as usual. He was holding a fan with a pattern of green bamboo in his hand, fanning himself slowly.
His whole body exudes a gentle and elegant aura. If outsiders didn't know his identity, they would think that he was a very knowledgeable and elegant scholar.
And Su Qiao could only see the darkness and ambition in his heart through this false skin that even he himself believed in.
The first time she saw Xi Muyan, she probably understood why he fell in love with Su Yuxin, and even though he knew that some of her behaviors were childish and ridiculous, he was still willing to indulge her and pamper her.
A person with a truly pure mind can sometimes be fatally attractive to a person who is in darkness and has a dark heart.
Although Su Yuxin is stupid, she is really simple and does not have too many messy thoughts in her mind.
Walking closer, Xi Hanzhou looked at Su Qiao who was staring at him in a daze and smiled gently: "Qiao'er, it's getting dark, where are you going? Why don't you ask a maid to accompany you?"
Su Qiao's eyes flickered, and he came back to his senses, saying simply: "Digestion."
Xi Muyan frowned slightly, but soon relaxed and said with a smile: "I'll accompany you. It's not safe here at night."
He is handsome, gentle, considerate, and unlike other men, he does not look down on women. No wonder so many ladies want to marry him.
No wonder even Su Yuxin unconsciously walked closer to the gentle web he wove, and did not choose any other princes, but finally chose him.
Su Qiao glanced at him and said nothing.
There is no such thing as a visitor without a reason. She didn't believe that he would come to her for no reason, instead of going to the bonfire party and keeping an eye on Su Yuxin.
Just as Su Qiao guessed, Ximuyan was indeed a little anxious, so he got down to business without saying a few words.
"Qiao'er, I heard that the emperor invited you to a banquet at noon?"
Su Qiao turned his head and looked at the faintly visible forest in front of him, as well as the grassland that looked a little gloomy in the night, and nodded slightly: "Yeah."
Xi Muyan always felt that she was different today than usual.
In the past, Su Qiao was taciturn and cowardly. She never contradicted others and was very easy to bully. But today, he did not sense any cowardice in her. All he felt was calmness and indifference.
Moreover, every time she saw herself in the past, she would lower her head out of shyness and never dare to raise it again, but today she was very calm.
However, Ximuyan was only a little surprised and let the matter go.
Was she just a chess piece? As long as she could do what she was supposed to do according to her plan, it would be fine.
"You're not scared, are you?"
"At that time, I took my second brother, third brother, and fifth brother to the forest with others. Otherwise..."
"What's the matter? If nothing's wrong, I'm going back to sleep." Su Qiao was impatient to play this kind of hypocritical game with him.
If she didn't think she might need this guy later, she wouldn't even bother with him now.
This kind of smiling tiger who may stab you at any time is what she hates the most.
Xi Hanzhou was choked and felt very unhappy in his heart, but his face was still very gentle, as if he could tolerate everything about her.
"Qiao'er? Is my brother, the Crown Prince, okay?"
Su Qiao shook his head without much enthusiasm: "I don't know, and I don't want to know."
"Qiao'er, you...what's wrong with you? Are you scared?" Xi Muyan frowned, and there was a hint of doubt in his eyes when he looked at her.
