Gu Xijiu's fingers tightened again. It turned out that not only the appearance and temperament were similar, but the voices were also so similar!
She stood up directly and said, "Your Excellency, you can sit here. The daughter of the people can find another seat." She turned around and was about to go down.
A hand suddenly pressed on her shoulder. The force was very light, but it made Gu Xijiu unable to move: "You don't have to go down." He helped her sit down, with him on the left and her on the right.
He moved too quickly. Before Emperor Xuan could say "How does this happen?", the sect master had already sat down next to Gu Xijiu and said politely: "Just add a pair of bowls and chopsticks."
Emperor Xuan didn't know what he was planning. His first reaction was that this sect leader was here to avenge his disciple Gu Xixi! So I set my sights on Gu Xijiu as soon as I arrived...
He was uneasy, but he didn't show anything on his face. He just smiled and said, "This would be a slight to the sect master." He immediately ordered someone to bring a set of clean and exquisite tableware.
The maid next to him came forward to make tea for him first. He waved his sleeves and signaled the other party to step back: "I will do it myself."
He actually brought his own tea set, a set of simple purple clay pots and teacups of the same pattern were placed in front of him.
Gu Xijiu's eyes shrank slightly when she looked at this tea set!
This tea set is actually the same style that Long Xi used in those days!
Even the tea he invited her to drink when he fainted was brewed with a similar tea set!
His movements of making tea are like flowing water, warming the cup, entering the oolong into the palace, washing the tea, whisking the tea, sealing the pot... these are exactly the steps that Long Xi usually uses when making tea.
Gu Xijiu's eyes were as dark as ink, and she watched him step by step calmly. Something seemed to be rolling in her heart, but her face was calm.
Long Siye made tea, poured two cups, and pushed one cup to Gu Xijiu: "Here, try this, authentic Yuqian tea, and see if the intensity suits your taste."
Even the lines are the same as when Long Xi wanted to stun her and persuade her to drink tea before traveling back in time!
Haha, it looks like it’s really him! He came to test her!
Gu Xijiu's eyes flashed slightly, she pursed her lips and did not accept the cup of tea: "Thank you, Master, Xijiu doesn't like drinking tea."
She raised her hand to pour herself a glass of water, and smiled again: "When it comes to drinking water, Xijiu only likes to drink plain water."
She actually didn't like drinking tea in her last life, but because he liked it, she liked it too, and even studied tea ceremony, just to have more topics and understanding with him...
Long Siye lowered his eyes and looked at her little face: "Do you really not like drinking? Or are you wary of me? Are you afraid that I will poison you again?"
He used the word 'again'.
Gu Xijiu tilted her head and looked at him, as if puzzled: "This is the first time Xijiu and Sect Master Si Ye have met, why do you have to say it again? Besides, Sect Master has no reason to poison me, right? This is not in line with your status."
Long Siye looked at her, but did not answer her question directly, and said slowly: "Actually, I have another name, a nickname that is unknown to everyone. Maybe only two people in the world know it. Guess what? What’s the name?”
Gu Xijiu shook her head and said simply: "I can't guess!"
"Long Xi—" Long Siye stared at her closely and spat out these two words.
"Yes, this nickname is also very nice." Gu Xijiu didn't even move her eyes.
Long Siye looked at her for a moment, and she looked back at him calmly. There was no hatred or resentment in those clear eyes, only complete strangeness, the look of a real stranger!
Long Siye seemed to have a flash of pain in his eyes, but he smiled and pushed the cup of tea towards her: "Try it, this cup is really delicious, maybe it will suit your taste." .”
