Su Qianle looked at the fire cloth, clenched her hands so tightly that her nails dug into her palms, and when she let go, a shocking set of finger marks appeared.
Lan Yuying had already been taken off the stage by the stars, and Xu Wenlan took the lead to greet her happily with his head held high, and said to her with a shy face: "You said, this gift to me in public is really impressive. For the first time in my life, I feel embarrassed..."
Lan Yuying looked at him stroking the folding fan in his hand, looking shy, and for a moment she really didn't know how to talk to him.
Thanks to Xian Li Tongtong beside him, seeing Xu Wenlan's expression and seeing Lan Yuying hesitate to speak, he took two steps forward and lowered his voice in Xu Wenlan's ear: "Mr. Xu, then The Huo Huan Bu is for the young Marquis, you don’t have to be embarrassed.”
Xu Wenlan was thinking whether he should take the initiative to bring Huo Huanbu over. After all, it was inappropriate for a woman to give it away in front of everyone. He was so happy that Xian Li's two words poured boiling water on him. The flower was directly burned to death.
"Why?" Xu Wenlan's shoulders slumped.
He originally thought that Lan Yuying was also interested in him, otherwise how could she be with him all day long, and even went to the Xu Mansion with him to meet his family.
Not only him, but everyone around him regarded the two of them as a couple, and even Xia Chu would make fun of them from time to time.
If the person in Lan Yuying's heart was Xia Chu, why didn't she tell him early in the morning? It would have stopped his thoughts from making him ridiculous these days.
Xu Wenlan drooped her head and pursed her lips. She was so high-spirited and proud just now, but in an instant she was completely different. With all her strength, she could only ask these three words with a trembling voice.
Lan Yuying originally wanted to explain to him in detail why she gave the fire coat to Xia Chu, but she didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, he would become like this. There was no time to explain slowly, so she had to step forward quickly. She took two steps and said directly in his ear: "Since he has helped us, do you still want to compete with him for a piece of cloth?"
Xu Wenlan's mood can be described as ups and downs. First, the flower bloomed with joy, and then the flower was scalded to death by the boiling water. And Lan Yuying's words made the dead flower bloom even more vigorously in spring.
What Lan Yuying said was 'us'. These two words represented the first time she had responded to her feelings head-on. Xu Wenlan was so happy that he wished he could hold her up right now, but he was also afraid that her reputation would be ruined. Gossip.
Therefore, he nodded heavily to express his great agreement with her words, and then took the piece of fire cloth with a happy face: "It's time to give it away, I will give it to you..."
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the oncoming Xia Chu, stuffed the fire coat into his hand, and said in a pleasant tone: "Lan Lan gave it to you."
Everyone was stunned by his sudden change of expression, especially Bingwen and Zhao Xingwen who followed him and witnessed his entire emotional change more clearly.
And Xia Chu held the batch of Huohuan cloth in his hand, looked at Xu Wenlan's smiling face, listened to his cheerful voice, twitched the corner of his mouth and asked Xiao Mubai: "Lanlan gave it to me, shouldn't he be sad?" Yeah?"
Xiao Mubai raised his eyebrows and shrugged. Xu Wenlan over there was already happily greeting everyone to set off the river lanterns.
Seeing that he was fine, Bingwen and Zhao Xingwen didn't bother to care about what madness he had just had. They each picked up Xianli and Huo Wenshu and prepared to follow him to put out the river lanterns. Only Shi Zhongfei asked him: "I don't want any money." Already?"
"What money?" Xu Wenlan was just getting up, but the person who was asked by him suddenly made no sense was confused.
Shi Zhongfei looked at everyone's confused looks and couldn't help but reflect on himself. Was he the only one who still remembered the gambling game set up on the peripheral handicap
Oops, as expected, once you become a businessman, your heart and eyes are all about money...
Shi Zhongfei was too embarrassed to speak, so he pointed in the direction of the handicap, and only then did Xu Wenlan react.
"Thank you for reminding me that this money won is a joy and must be taken." After Xu Wenlan said this, he walked towards the market in a hurry. Xia Chu followed him two steps forward and whispered in his ear. A few words.
Xu Wenlan looked suspicious, but nodded anyway, and then walked towards the entrance. Not far from the entrance, Xiao Yanjun was preparing to leave with Aodenge Rile.
While counting the banknotes, Xu Wenlan shouted proudly at Xiao Yanjun's back: "Your Highness, King Yu, I have spent a lot of money on you..."
Xiao Yanjun's back froze, and he turned to face him with a sneer, his face full of disdain.
Xu Wenlan then shouted to him: "Little Marquis asked me to tell you, not only this fire coat, but also the crescent white robe, you are not worthy of it."
The smile on Xiao Yanjun's face completely froze. Seeing his sullen expression, Aodenge turned his head and was about to get angry and scold him, but Xiao Yanjun gritted his teeth and stopped her: "It's just a dog barking, let's go back to the palace." .”
Seeing that he didn't respond, Xu Wenlan walked back to Lan Yuying with triumphant steps as if he had won a battle. Everyone asked him the direction of placing the river lanterns and headed there.
Lan Yuying had something to say to Xia Chu, and Xu Wenlan consciously walked to Xiao Zimu's side.
Xiao Zimu's face was solemn, which was completely opposite to Xu Wenlan's cheerful face. It was also the first time that Xu Wenlan saw that Xiao Zimu was worried, so he couldn't help but restrain his expression and asked with concern: "What's wrong with His Majesty the Seventh Highness?"
Naturally, Xiao Zimu couldn't tell what was really distressing in his heart, so he changed the topic: "The position of prime minister is currently pending, and someone from Guwan needs to take over."
After hearing this, Xu Wenlan looked like he suddenly understood: "No wonder Xiao Mubai and the young Marquis chose you. His Majesty the Seventh Highness is committed to caring for the people."
Xiao Zimu seemed to be suddenly awakened by him. Yes, he still carried Xia Chu's hopes, how could he let such ridiculous things disappoint him.
When Xiao Zimu looked up again, his expression had returned to normal, and he said to Xu Wenlan with his usual warm smile, "Thank you very much."
Xu Wenlan was so grateful that he didn't know why. Seeing that he didn't want to say anything, she had to smile awkwardly and say, "Where is it?"
Xia Chu, who was behind them, handed the fire coat to Raven and asked Lan Yuying as he walked: "Why didn't you give it to Xu Wenlan, but gave it to me instead?"
Lan Yuying chuckled lightly, and through the veil, she could feel how gorgeous her smiling face was under the curved eyebrows.
"Because a certain person has been thinking about a young man wearing a crescent white robe since he was eight years old. However, I have been down the mountain for so long, but I have never seen His Highness King Mo wearing white clothes. I learned that this Huo Huanbu is just right. It's crescent moon white, so I thought that you could tailor a robe for him, so that I could fulfill the boy in white that you have been thinking about for all these years."
