“Eldest Lady, please don’t blame me. 1 just returned from court and saw Eldest Lady return home at night. 1 was worried, so 1 followed behind and escorted Eldest Lady.”
...Xie Xian’s voice was gentle, and it sounded especially gentle and pleasant at night.
Xiao Baoxin looked at him with a smile. He felt that his eyes were more accurate, and his smile became sweeter. This Xie Xian was a piece of beautiful jade, how could other stubborn stones compare to him? Be it temperament or demeanor, he was much stronger.
Xie Xian made her laugh until she felt a little scared.
“Can we go over there and talk? I have something to ask Minister Xie.”Xiao Baoxin raised his chin and pointed at the pavilion at the bridgehead of Qingxi.
Although Xie Xian felt that it was abrupt, he couldn’t reject Xiao Baoxin’s initiative to invite him, so he slowly walked forward with her, always maintaining a step or so away from her.
She was in front and he was behind, just like that time in the palace.
Standing still, Xie Xian smiled faintly. The night wind blew his sleeves.”What advice do you have, Eldest Lady?”
Xiao Baoxin’s eyes moved as he stared at Xie Xian with a smile. His eyes seemed to contain the brilliance of the stars in the world, so dazzling that Xie Xian almost didn’t dare to look directly at them.
” I’m willing to get to know you.”Are you willing to marry me?”
Her voice was not loud, but it drowned out the sound of the surrounding water, the decadent sound of the zither, and the sudden wind in the night.
At this moment, there was a small pavilion at the bridgehead, and behind it was a raging river. The light from the lanterns by the bridge shone into the pavilion from afar, reflecting half of Xiao Baoxin’s face. Everything seemed to have frozen at this moment.
This was a beautiful painting, so beautiful that it was unbelievable.
Xiao Baoxin stared fixedly at Xie Xian. The shock in his eyes could be seen at a glance, but there was no more movement.
She didn’t want to use her skills to spy on his thoughts.
But she wanted to know.
She wasn’t sure what Xie Xian’s feelings for her were, especially his current reaction, which made her confused. It didn’t seem like he had no intention for her, but he couldn’t have been scared silly, could he?
Sorry for offending…Xiao Baoxin stepped forward and gently grabbed his wrist, but in the end…He didn’t hear anything.
Had she never seen such a fierce woman who confessed to her?
This dream is too real.
Xiao Baoxin suddenly heard Xie Xian sigh softly. He must be dreaming.
Was it because tonight was the Qixi Festival?
” The Qiqiao Festival in Jiankang City is the Qixi Festival in Jingling, the day when men and women confess their love.’
“This Xie…I’m not willing.” His eyes were clear, and his face had returned to normal. He looked tired and exhausted.
Xiao Baoxin’s eyes widened. He didn’t think so. Then, Xie Xian withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened and slowly hid it in his wide sleeves.
It was as if she was asking if he had eaten dinner, and her answer was so casual.
“It’s too late. If someone sees you, it will damage your reputation. You should go back.”Finished talking, Xie Xian turned around and was about to leave.
How could Xiao Baoxin be so easily dismissed? He went forward and pulled Xie Xian back. Xie Xian did not expect her to do this at all. He staggered and almost fell to the ground.
“What is Lady Xiao doing?”Xie Xian looked miserable.
‘If I fall to the ground, 1 won’t have to appear in front of her for the rest of my life.’
” As expected of the woman 1 like. Even the person she’s pursuing is so different.’
‘The problem is…Will I get beaten up…Where’s the breeze, where’s the moon…’
Xiao Baoxin decisively found the most important sentence. He clearly liked her, but what was the meaning of putting on a sacred and inviolable face?
He did not look like a bookworm who had gone crazy from studying.
“I just want to ask, how am I not worthy of you?”
“Men and women should not touch each other.” Xie Xian didn’t have the time to answer her question. He tried hard to pull his arm back, but it was futile. He pulled and pulled like a little lady who had been insulted.
“Quickly let go.”
He knew that Lady Xiao knew martial arts and loved to fight, but when it came to him, he never thought that he would be completely crushed.
“Where did you get so much strength?” He was helpless. How could he have known that she was so fierce when she pursued someone?
Xie Xian finally gave up resisting and raised his eyes to look at Xiao Baoxin.
“There’s nothing that Eldest Lady Xiao isn’t worthy of this Xie. It’s this Xie…I’m just unwilling.”
With just this sentence, most of the young ladies of ordinary families ran away. Back then, the princess of South County did not run away like Lady Xiao. However, her eyes were red, and she only said a few harsh words-she was a dignified princess who did not have to worry about marriage. Just you wait!
Just let him wait.
She didn’t have Xiao Baoxin’s boldness. She immediately stood there with her knife in her hand. Those who knew that she was confessing to someone, but those who didn’t know would think that she was catching a thief and taking dirty things.
“If you want to say that I’m not worthy, it’s this Xie who isn’t worthy of Eldest Lady.”he said seriously.
“Are you cursing?” Xiao Baoxin rolled his eyes. Nine out of ten people would have the same reaction as her.
This man had a good family background and good looks. He was in a high position at a young age. Anyone who heard him would think that he was being sarcastic.
“Attendant Xie has a prominent family background and is handsome. If I say that I’m not worthy, then I’m out of my league.”
“This Xie does not mean that.” Although Xie Xian refused, he was still gentle, like a child who was trying to persuade him to eat candy. “My so-called halo is only given by my family, not my personal talent. As for me, my body is weak and sickly, and I’m really not fit to be a son-in-law.”
Xiao Baoxin laughed. This was also because Xie Xian had a good temper. If anyone had stopped her and pestered her endlessly, she would have long been kicked into the river.
“That’s just right. I have a bad reputation and a bad temper. I’m just a match for you.”
H H
She was sure that this was a confession. Wasn’t she trying to scare him away?
Whether it was good or bad, whether they were worthy or not, it was all up to her. Xie Xian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Did he misunderstand the word ‘confession’? Why couldn’t the two of them match up?
“Lady Xiao must be joking.”
“I’m not joking.” Xiao Baoxin’s gaze was burning.” My family background is indeed not as good as Attendant Xie’s, but Attendant Xie is not someone who values family background. “I can be considered pretty, 1 know kung fu, and I’m roughly literate. 1 hope that you can consider me seriously.””
“I don’t care if you’re not well. I’m interested in you.”
It was like a bolt from the blue.” You-you, Lady Xiao, are joking.”Xie Xian’s face was flushed red. After saying that, he pulled his arm out of Xiao Baoxin’s hand and walked out of the pavilion in a sorry state. His footsteps were messy as he walked and shouted,” Qingfeng, Mingyue!
Qingfeng and Mingyue were speechless.
They were far away, so they couldn’t hear what Xiao Baoxin and Xie Xian were talking about. However, they had eyes and ears.
They pulled and pulled, and their faces turned red. It was an ambiguous scene.
No one had expected such a sudden turn of events. Their Master Lang fled in a sorry state, as if he was afraid that the eldest daughter of the Xiao family would pounce on him. His long legs took three steps at a time. They had followed Master Lang for so many years, but they had never seen him lose his composure like this!
What exactly happened?
What?
