"But this is really effective!" As if she was afraid that he wouldn't believe it, Chu Jiaoli grabbed his arm eagerly and said, "Come on, come on, let's make a wish together!" She touched herself with one hand.
He asked, "Do you have any coins? I didn't bring anything with me when I came out. Can you lend me some?"
Looking at his arm that was shaken by her pull, that sweet oriole-like voice kept ringing in his ears, Bei Gong Tengxiao became more and more irritable, and then subconsciously threw away her hand.
Chu Jiaoli didn't expect that he suddenly used such great force. She was not prepared at all. She took an unsteady step and then stood up slowly.
Before he could speak, he saw Bei Gong Tengxiao's eyes were cold and disgusted, and his voice became a little darker, and he said: "Zhong Gong Huanli, how old are you? Are you childish if you still believe this?"
Chu Jiaoli choked on her words. She bit her lip in a panic and lowered her voice a little, "This has nothing to do with age. It is common for grandparents and grandmothers to come here to make wishes..."
"It has nothing to do with age, so I can only think that it has something to do with IQ?" Beigong Tengxiao said with a sarcastic tone, "I, the prince of a great country, will play such a boring game with you?"
When he finished speaking, he snorted coldly, threw up his sleeves and left.
Chu Jiaoli's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, and her eyes were stained with a layer of tears of grievance, reflecting the warm light of the setting sun.
Her slender hands were shaking in her sleeves, and she looked extremely depressed, not at all like her usual optimistic self.
Childish? Boring? Is she like this in his heart?
He must be very tired of himself...
After thinking about it, she sniffed, and a deep look of loneliness flashed across her eyes.
Beigong Tengxiao strode in front, raising his hand and rubbing his eyebrows.
Why is that woman always nagging her? She’s like a dog-skin plaster and can’t be driven away!
It's ridiculous, he is the prince! Why should he make a wish with her by that broken pool like a fool?
Is making a wish useful? If it was, he would have broken his knees while kneeling before God, and he would not have seen his pear standing in front of him again!
After venting his annoyance in his mind, he breathed out gently, glanced to his side, and was suddenly stunned.
Where are the people?
He looked back and saw that Chu Jiaoli was still there. He was walking very fast and was already far away from the wishing pool.
The girl's figure had become a small dot. He gritted his teeth and walked back a few steps.
She actually got into trouble with him?! What kind of relationship did she think she had with him!
It was only after he got closer that he gradually saw her appearance clearly. She was holding her knees and sitting on the broad stone. He imagined that the angry and willful look he expected did not appear on her face. p>
The girl looked dazed with her hair down, and her picturesque facial features seemed to be hanging down in depression. She was very sad and lost...
Beigong Tengxiao's fists tightened. Could it be that what he said was so hurtful?
He exhaled softly, touched his clothes, and the banknotes in his arms made some noise.
He pursed his lips, turned his head and asked Jingyue behind him, "Do you have any copper coins?"
Jingyue groped around on her body, took out thirty copper coins from her purse, and said, "Your Highness, I only have this much for the time being."
Beigong Tengxiao picked up the copper plate in his hand, then took out a silver note from his arms and put it in his hand, saying: "I bought this from you."
Jingyue looked at the one hundred taels of silver notes in her hand in surprise, then smiled with joy and said: "Thank you, Your Highness!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Beigong Tengxiao was already walking back.
Chu Jiaoli looked at the traces of time on the stones. When she last came back here, the stones here were still new and beautiful.
She dipped her slender fingers into the water in the pool and slowly scratched the traces, as if she was trying to smooth them out.
Beigong Tengxiao walked up to her. As a master of martial arts, she was immersed in her own world at the moment. She was just randomly drawing ghost symbols on the rocks without any warning.
"What do these charms mean?"
A slightly awkward and familiar voice appeared above her. Chu Jiaoli's fingertips paused and she raised her head blankly.
Seeing Beigong leaving the sky and coming back again, the corners of her lips that had not yet been raised soon fell again.
Beigong Tengxiao looked at the inexplicable water marks painted on her fingertips, his face expressionless.
Chu Jiaoli frowned slightly, then raised her hand and wiped the messy things clean with water, and said with a strange hoarse voice: "No, it's nothing, I'm bored..."
He must be ridiculing himself again...
Being treated like this by the person she likes makes her feel very bad.
Beigong Tengxiao grabbed her little arm and placed thirty copper coins in her palm that was cold from the water. With a hint of awkward guilt, he turned his head and said, "Are these coins enough?
”
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli's eyes suddenly brightened, and the gloom in her eyes was instantly dispelled. She grinned, like a child who was inexperienced in the world, and nodded heavily while holding the copper plate.
Beigong Tengxiao sat next to her and said, "Well, then make a wish quickly."
"Okay." Chu Jiaoli's voice finally regained its sweetness. She looked at the coins in her hand and muttered, "One coin per wish, I can make many wishes..."
As she spoke, she took out a copper plate with one hand, closed her eyes and made a wish devoutly, and then threw it into the water.
The water surface was constantly splashed by her copper plate. Beigong Tengxiao raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Why don't you make a wish?"
Chu Jiaoli smiled and said, "It won't work if you say it."
Beigong Tengxiao was stunned for a while and said softly: "Really..."
Is it because he said it when he made a wish that his pear can't come back...
Chu Jiaoli picked up a copper plate and wanted to hand it to him, saying: "You..."
Do you want a wish...
Before she finished speaking, she slowly took her hand back. He was extremely merciful to wait for her here. He wouldn't make a wish...
Just as I was thinking about it, the copper plate in my hand was taken away.
Chu Jiaoli was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but open her mouth.
I saw Beigong Tengxiao standing up, holding the copper plate and closing her eyes. She did not look as happy as she was, but stood solemnly and sacredly in front of the pool, made a wish seriously, and then threw the copper plate into the water.
.
He glanced at the stunned Chu Jiaoli and said, "Is it really effective?"
Chu Jiaoli came back to her senses and said with a smile: "Sincerity leads to spirituality."
Beigong Tengxiao pursed her thin lips and said, "Don't lie to me."
"Yes!" Chu Jiaoli nodded with a smile and said, "I've made my promise and you can leave."
After saying that, she took Beigong Tengxiao's hand affectionately and strode forward.
Seeing that the person behind her didn't move, she awkwardly shook her hand away. She suddenly reacted and bit her lip nervously.
