The night is melting, and the bright light shines on the water, reflecting the rippling lake water somewhat poetically. There is a man sitting on the stone. Although there is only a back view, you can still see the man's unparalleled elegance from that body.
Xie Ruzhuo stopped in his tracks, and just when he was about to speak out, he heard the man speak first.
"It seems that Fourth Miss Xie is just like me, and she can't listen to that melancholy sound."
After saying that, the man turned around. His face seemed to have been carefully polished by a stonemason. His eyes, ears, mouth and nose were all three-dimensional and perfect.
Even though she had seen him many times, but when she saw him again, Xie Ruzhuo couldn't help but curse in her heart. It was said that beauties in the world harmed the country, but in her opinion, the appearance of the man in front of her could really be called a disaster to the country. Two words.
"The third prince is wrong. Zhuo'er really liked the singing and dancing in the Princess's Mansion, but he just happened to be full, so he came out for a walk." Xie Ruzhuo smiled, walked to him and sat on the big stone. .
The stone has been fully exposed to the sun during the day and is still slightly hot at the moment. It is just the right temperature for people to sit on it.
Seeing her casual look, Xiao Junxi's heart moved, and then she chuckled and said, "You look like this, how can you still have the demeanor of a rich lady?" However, such a free and easy girl is the girl in his impression. .
When Xie Ruzhuo heard this, he immediately asked with a smile, "In the eyes of the third prince, what is the style of a rich lady?"
Hearing her question, Xiao Junxi didn't know how to answer. He thought for a moment and then smiled and said, "Actually, no matter what you look like, it's good to be happy."
"Haha, the third prince has learned their glib ways." Xie Ruzhuo smiled half-heartedly, turned to the flowers on the side, picked one at random, put it to his nose and smelled it.
Seeing her smiling face, Xiao Junxi felt a hand gently stirring in his heart, making his originally silent heart feel a little restless.
Just as he was thinking wildly, he heard Xie Ruzhuo ask, "I heard that the third prince's old illness relapsed some time ago. Is he feeling better now?"
Although he looked casual on the surface, Xie Ruzhuo couldn't help but feel anxious in his heart, hoping that the Western Snow Lotus would be effective for him.
The expression on Xiao Junxi's face did not change. She looked at the night in the distance and said slightly calmly, "Good or bad, it's just that." As he said that, he seemed to feel that something was wrong with his words, so he He turned a corner and said, "But Miss Lauchie is still worried about me. Thanks to your gift of medicine, I'm fine now."
"You're welcome. I'm just returning a favor by doing this." Hearing him thank him, Xie Ruzhuo felt a little uncomfortable. After saying this, the two of them fell into silence for a while.
Under the moonlight, the man's side face was obviously pale, and recently, Shen Jingci's words unexpectedly entered Xie Ruzhuo's ears.
Is such a man really too sick to have sex? If this is really the case, then in the previous life, Xiao Junxi could tolerate Murong Wan giving birth to a boy in ten months of pregnancy. How big of a heart must this be!
When she thought of this, she couldn't help but think of the scene she saw in the bathtub that day. Is that size really inhumane
"what's on your mind?"
Although he didn't know what she was thinking, looking at Xie Ruzhuo's expression, Xiao Junxi couldn't help but shudder. He always felt that the expression on this girl's face was not normal at the moment.
Xie Ruzhuo thought a lot, but was frightened by Xiao Junxi's voice. Only then did she realize that she was sitting next to the client. She hurriedly adjusted her emotions and said with a dry smile, "No, it's nothing. I just felt that it was too loud." It’s been a long time, it’s time to go back.”
"That's true. You are no better than me. If you stay for a long time, you will inevitably be criticized by others." Xiao Junxi nodded slightly, but had no intention of going back together.
Seeing this, Xie Ruzhuo responded with a smile, stood up and left. But as soon as her steps started, she stopped in the distance and said solemnly, "Just now, thank you so much, Third Prince. Zhuo'er will never forget it."
"If you can't forget it, why don't you give me some actual thanks?" Xiao Junxi blurted out involuntarily when she heard this, but she looked a little embarrassed.
However, Xie Ruzhuo didn't seem to understand what he said, so he said "goodbye" and left in a hurry. However, the slightly staggering steps revealed her mood at the moment.
If she really didn't know what Xiao Junxi meant, her years of life would have been in vain. Although she only gradually recalled the events of her childhood in recent days, Xiao Junxi obviously remembered them all her life. Apart from that, she really couldn't explain his various actions in his previous life. However, Xie Ruzhuo knew clearly that no matter what thoughts Xiao Junxi had about herself, she could not respond.
She, Xie Ruzhuo, is an evil ghost who has returned with hatred. She will eventually return to hell, so how can she be worthy of the spotless Xiao Junxi!
Xie Ruzhuo had many thoughts and her steps were unsteady along the way. Suddenly she heard a woman's voice, which made her suddenly wake up.
"Fifth Prince, I can tell you—"
A pair of men and women stood under the night sky. The man was undoubtedly Xiao Junyi, but the woman turned out to be Shen Jingci!
Xie Ruzhuo sensed that something was wrong between the two of them, so he immediately covered his body and wanted to eavesdrop on their conversation. Unexpectedly, as soon as she stood still, someone suddenly covered her mouth and took her away.
Xie Ruzhuo's mouth and nose were covered by someone, and she was out of breath for a moment. Fortunately, the person who held her hostage moved very fast, and they jumped more than ten feet away and arrived in another courtyard. .
When the man saw that her face was turning red from holding back, he immediately let go and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do it."
Xie Ruzhuo escaped from control, and the first thing he did was to pull his arm over and bite him hard in one bite. Did she really think that Xie Ruzhuo was a weakling and easy to bully
The man was bitten by her unexpectedly. He hissed immediately, pulled his arm away from her control, and shouted softly, "Are you a dog?"
Xie Ruzhuo was panting for breath when he suddenly heard his voice. He immediately raised his head and glared at the person coming, "Is it you?!"
This person is none other than Shen Jingxiang!
In her previous life, after the fall of her Xie family, it was this young master of the Shen family who personally killed Xie Shenyan!
Thinking of her father still refusing to kneel down with blood splattered everywhere, and shouting "Late Emperor, I'm coming!", Xie Ruzhuo couldn't help but bite her silver teeth so loudly that her Xie family was full of loyal people, and finally... Die at the hands of these ambitious beasts!
"Shen Jingxiang, you actually have the nerve to appear in front of me, I'll kill you!" As soon as he saw his face, Xie Ruzhuo instantly forgot where he was, and immediately pinched his hand fiercely his neck.
Shen Jingxiang was unprepared and was successfully attacked by her in an instant. His soldier's instinct told him to open Xie Ruzhuo's hands directly, then restrained her tightly, lowered his voice and asked, "Xie Ruzhuo, why are you crazy?"
He and Xie Ruzhuo had never met each other a few times. Why did this girl want to bite him to death like a mad dog? Shen Jingxiang was confused, but when she saw Xie Ruzhuo's brow furrowed in pain, she immediately let go.
Xie Ruzhuo was struck by the pain and woke up instantly. However, she could not improve her expression towards Shen Jingxiang. She could only say indifferently, "If you tie me up for no reason, you won't allow me to go crazy?"
"I mean well! Who is the fifth prince? You were killed just now if he found out. How come you don't know a good person's heart?" Shen Jingxiang had a gloomy look on his face, but when he saw the other person's slightly aggrieved face His face could not harden his voice no matter what.
"Ha, according to what you said, I have to thank you Mr. Shen?!" As she said that, she stared at Shen Jingxiang fiercely and said word by word, "But if I want to disappoint you, who should I thank?" I won't even be grateful to you!" The hatred for killing her father is irreconcilable, so let her thank Ruzhuo for accepting his love and let her dream go.
"Do you have any prejudice against me? Have I offended you?" Shen Jingxiang grabbed her arm and stopped her from leaving. He was not stupid, he naturally sensed her hostility and immediately asked.
Unexpectedly, the other party just shook his hand away again, then looked at him with disdain, turned around and walked away.
Shen Jingxiang looked confused and wanted to chase after him again, but unexpectedly found something falling on the ground.
It was a piece of jade pendant, transparent in texture, white in color, and made of fine mutton-fat jade. The word "Zhuo" was engraved on the inside. It was Xie Ruzhuo's personal belongings.
With a thought in his mind, he picked up the jade pendant. Perhaps it had been close to his body for a long time, and the jade pendant still had some residual warmth. The smooth and delicate surface was like a woman's tender skin, which made him unable to put it down.
Shen Jingxiang rubbed the jade pendant and couldn't help but look at Xie Ruzhuo's retreating back, with a hint of obsession in her eyes.
Although everyone had their own thoughts and undercurrents, the banquet was still peaceful on the surface. Because it was her birthday today, everyone tried their best to amuse the eldest princess. She drank a few more glasses of wine, and she looked even more energetic.
The moon was at its zenith, it was already close to midnight, and some of the older people already showed a little fatigue on their faces. When the female officer Liuli saw this, she couldn't help but whisper, "Princess, look, have you arranged for someone to serve tea?" After drinking tea and rinsing her mouth, the banquet should be dismissed.
Hearing this, the eldest princess nodded and said with a smile, "Go." It was late and she was a little sleepy.
When the tea was served, everyone understood what it meant. Seeing that the banquet was coming to an end, those who wanted to please the princess started joking even harder.
At this moment, a snake covered in patterns suddenly appeared on the banquet, spitting out blood-red nodules.
"There's a snake!"
Someone screamed in surprise. Everyone looked at his fingers, their eyes widened, and then they screamed. Why did something like this suddenly appear in this fine banquet
There was chaos at the banquet. Some timid ladies screamed and hugged their maids or the people next to them tightly. Some of them who were further away ran towards the door immediately, for fear of being caught. Snake bites.
The eldest princess's face turned pale, and she roared angrily, "Where are the guards, kill them quickly!"
However, as soon as she finished speaking, she saw the little patterned snake turning its triangular head in a circle, aiming at Xie Ruzhuo, and rushing towards her as fast as lightning!
It happened in an instant. Before Xie Ruzhuo could react, he saw the snake spitting out its core and getting close to him. The snake is colorful, and the fangs inside are extremely poisonous at a glance!
run!
