Rong Xiu paused and looked sideways.
When he saw Situ Xingchen, a hint of doubt appeared in his clear and clean eyes.
"Who are you-"
Situ Xingchen was like a drop of cold water in his pocket, and his originally enthusiastic and excited heart suddenly became cold.
But she still managed to maintain the smile on her face:
"Senior Brother Rongxiu, I am Xingchen!"
Rong Xiu squinted his eyes, as if trying to recall who the woman in front of him was.
Yan Qing behind him reminded in a low voice:
"Your Highness, she is Elder Zong Ye's niece."
Hearing this sentence, Rong Xiu showed a look of surprise.
"It turns out to be Princess Situ."
Situ Xingchen looked at his reaction. It seemed that he really didn't remember himself, and his heart was almost completely cold.
And his unfamiliar and distant tone made her even more tormented.
Ever since she knew that this Qingjiao Conference would be held in the imperial capital of Yaochen Kingdom, she had been imagining the scene where the two would meet.
She had fantasized about this scene countless times, but never expected that it would actually be like this.
He actually didn't recognize her at all.
She took a deep breath and finally suppressed the disappointment in her heart.
In fact, they had been separated for more than two years, and she looked different now than before. It was normal for him not to recognize her at first glance.
After comforting herself in her heart, her expression gradually returned to her natural state.
"I haven't seen you for a long time. Senior Brother Rongxiu is even more handsome than before."
Rong Xiu coughed and smiled gently, but the corners of his eyes were not stained with a smile, they were still cold.
"Princess Situ, please give me the award. I am weak and only a medicine jar. I really cannot afford such high praise."
Situ Xingchen was about to speak but stopped.
She knew he was not as weak and harmless as he seemed.
In the past, she had seen with her own eyes how outstanding and pure he was.
But now is obviously not the time to talk about this.
There seemed to be a flash of light flashing through her watery eyes, and she said softly:
"Senior Brother Rong Xiu is too polite to call me this. Since we are from the same sect, Senior Brother Rong Xiu just calls me -"
"Princess Situ's words are different."
Rong Xiu interrupted her words in a calm tone, with a smile on his lips, but his attitude became even more distant.
"You are the niece of Elder Zong Ye, but I worship under Elder Zhuying. There are eight elders in Mingyue Tianshan, and each of them occupies a different sect. What's more, the two elders have been diligently practicing in seclusion in recent years. , we don’t have much contact, and being ‘from the same sect’ really doesn’t count. I would like to ask Princess Situ to take back the title of ‘senior brother’.”
After hearing this, everyone who was originally confused finally understood.
It turns out that these two people were both from Mingyue Tianshan, but they did not follow the same person.
In this way, they are indeed not senior brothers and junior sisters.
What's more, everyone could tell that although Rong Xiu said it politely, his attitude was very clear, and he made it clear that he didn't want to have anything to do with Situ Xingchen!
This Situ Xingchen was really in trouble!
"Master Rong"
Situ Xingchen didn't expect that Rong Xiu would cut off the relationship with her so easily, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer the question.
She has been of noble status since she was a child, and is extremely outstanding in both appearance and talent.
Her father, queen, mother, brother, and many others doted on her.
Especially the teenagers, when facing her, they are either at a loss or attentive, always with her as the center.
She was used to being sought after, and when she was suddenly exposed like this by Rong Xiu, she didn't know what to do.
As soon as she opened her mouth, she met Rong Xiu's calm, reserved and slightly threatening eyes. She closed her mouth subconsciously, and her elegant and gentle face turned red and white.
Rong Xiu didn't seem to notice her embarrassment at all, and turned around and walked towards Tianlu Academy.
Yan Qing glanced at Situ Xingchen and silently mourned for the eldest princess in her heart.
It's not wrong to like the master, but if she offends the person he cares about, how can the master give her any good looks
In the short period of time since returning to the imperial capital, the master has already learned about everything related to that person in the past few days. Naturally, he has also heard about the embarrassing actions of Princess Situ.
The master has a photographic memory. Whether it is the books he has read or the people he has met, he will definitely remember them clearly.
What I did just now was just to embarrass her.
Looking at Rong Xiu's leaving figure, he was tall and straight, but also cold and distant.
Situ Xingchen took two steps back in despair, and did not recover for a long time.
"Rong Xiu, why are you here?"
Seeing Rong Xiu, Sun Zhongyan and others were also very surprised.
A few days ago, he said that he had some things to deal with and left the academy. Unexpectedly, he came directly here as soon as he came back.
Sun Zhongyan asked worriedly:
"How are you feeling?"
Rong Xiu smiled lightly and shook his head:
"Don't worry, Mr. Sun, I am fine. I just have a little matter and I need Miss Liu Yue's help, so I came here specially."
As soon as these words came out, not only Mr. Sun, but also everyone around him who had their ears pricked up were a little surprised.
Miss Liuyue
Isn't that talking about Chu Liuyue
Your Highness, King Li, is there anything you need Chu Liuyue’s help with
Mr. Sun was a little curious, but he didn't ask any more questions, so he nodded:
"That girl is competing now, I'm afraid it won't be over for a while."
Rong Xiu smiled lightly:
"No problem. I will be waiting for you."
After saying that, he found a seat, sat down and waited quietly.
Yan Qing stood behind him with a serious expression, looking like an iceberg.
This actually made many young girls who were interested in the weak and gentle Prince Li become more cautious.
His Royal Highness Prince Li seems to have a good temper, but this cold-faced guard seems to be hard to mess with!
Rong Xiu turned a deaf ear to the various gazes and just looked at the field quietly, as if he was really patiently waiting for the game to end.
This situation caused many people to start talking secretly.
"How come His Royal Highness Prince Li and Chu Liuyue meet? Is there something that requires her help?"
"Who knows this? His Royal Highness, King Li, has a distinguished status. How can we find out about it?"
"Could it be His Royal Highness King Li and Chu Liuyue? I heard that His Highness King Li helped her out of the siege at the Prince's birthday banquet before!"
"How is that possible!? It must be just because His Highness King Li is kind-hearted! How can Chu Liuyue win the favor of His Highness King Li? She is no longer a noble daughter of a noble family."
"But her father Chu Ning is already the president of the Imperial Guard! Not to mention her talent is so good! After this Qingjiao meeting, Chu Liuyue will probably become very popular!"
"I don't think they have any chance."
Naturally, Situ Xingchen also saw this scene.
The mood that finally recovered suddenly became unstable again.
She pinched her sleeves tightly, and it took a lot of effort to restrain her urge to step forward and ask.
Others don’t know, but she knows it!
The glazed world that Chu Liuyue used before will be able to be repaired!
