After more than two hours of contact, Yu Xi and Dongfang Xue finally became familiar with each other.
"I'll take you around. Maybe you can remember some things from the past." Dongfang Xue took her hand and walked out of the pavilion with her.
After walking a few steps, I saw many maids gathered around the pond in the backyard. Everyone had bright smiles on their faces, a little shy and a little expectant, and their eyes were all staring at somewhere in the pond. I don’t know what they were looking at.
What.
The two walked over unconsciously.
"What are you doing?" Dongfang Xue asked Sister Huahua, who was staring at the pond with everyone.
Only then did Sister Huahua notice the two people approaching. She nodded and greeted politely: "Miss Yuxi, Axue."
Dongfang Xue nodded to her and followed her gaze towards the pond: "What are you doing here?"
"It's Mr. Luo who is catching fish." Sister Huahua replied, unable to hide her excitement in her eyes.
Catch fish!
Yu Xi and Dongfang Xue unconsciously studied the pond in front of them. Spring has not yet passed. In Lihai, the daytime temperature is only 17 or 18 degrees, and the temperature in the water is probably not even 15 degrees. Going into the water to catch fish at this time is life-threatening.
Already?
Before the two of them could think too much, there was a sudden "crash" and a strong body emerged from the calm pond. Luo Ying's handsome face, which was brighter than the sun, suddenly appeared in all eyes.
His upper body was bare, and his muscular arms were covered with water drops, shining dazzlingly in the setting sun.
While Yu Xi and Dongfang Xue were looking at him, he also noticed their presence, and walked towards the shore with his tall body. After landing on the shore, he handed the fish in his hand to Sister Huahua, and then walked to Yu Xi
, greeted politely: "Miss Yuxi."
She just nodded slightly in response.
Luo Ying looked at Dongfang Xue again, and after looking at it for a long time, she suddenly smiled and said: "You have grown up a lot."
Dongfang Xue blushed and rolled her eyes at him: "I'm the same age as you, don't treat me like a child."
Luo Ying shrugged and said indifferently: "That is to say, everyone is twenty-six years old, why do you look so petite?"
He stretched out his hand to measure the height of the two of them. Dongfang Xue was not short among women, about 1.65 meters, but it only reached his shoulders. By visual inspection, he was at least 1.87 or 88 meters tall, and
Zhan Muchen is almost the same height.
Dongfang Xue turned away from him.
Luo Ying didn't tease her anymore. When Yu Xi turned around and walked away, he chased her for two steps, but didn't dare to get too close: "Miss Yu Xi, there are fresh sea bass tonight."
Yu Xi looked back at him. He was only wearing a pair of trousers, and the water on his body was dripping to the ground. She frowned: "Aren't you cold?"
"It's not cold." Luo Ying brushed the messy bangs that fell in front of her forehead and smiled brightly: "After soaking in the sea for an hour yesterday, I suddenly felt that taking a cold bath in cold weather is not bad. After soaking, I felt more energetic.
Already."
"Then you go ahead and soak for a while." She turned around and walked to the backyard, still not wanting to have too much contact with this man. He is Zhan Muchen's man, and he will also be a big obstacle preventing her from leaving in the future. Just looking at it
The way he walks, it's easy to see that he is definitely a master who hides his secrets.
There are always so many skilled men around Zhan Muchen. How easy is it to escape from him?
Luo Ying looked at her back, scratched her head, and said with a hint of embarrassment: "But I have been soaking in the pond for more than an hour, I should have soaked enough..."
"..." Dongfang Xue glanced at him and just shook his head: "Go back and change your clothes quickly. Miss Yuxi is just joking with you."
"Are you sure?" He didn't know if that was an order.
"You can go back to the pond and soak for another hour, no one will stop you." Dongfang Xue looked at Yu Xi who was walking away and sighed silently.
Although he had told her everything that happened in Dongfang City, to her it was just like hearing a story, and those past events could not enter her heart at all.
Except when she heard that she had stabbed her husband twice, her eyes showed shock and sadness. At other times, she was still languid and lifeless. She didn't know whether it was because she was really too tired or because she really felt sorry for her husband.
There is no trace of friendship anymore.
Luo Ying couldn't guess what the two women were thinking. He was not good at guessing women's thoughts. He hesitated for a few seconds and finally chose to go back to the room to change clothes. Although taking a cold bath could really refresh him, he was still cold after taking a bath.
Standing in the wind for too long is useless and is courting death.
No matter how strong he is, he won't make fun of his own health.
Yuxi just wandered around the backyard for a while and then returned to the main house. It was already past the afternoon time. Zhan Muchen probably had someone call him back and said he would not come back for dinner. When Yuxi appeared in the lobby, Sister Huahua was busy.
I asked her if I could serve the food now, and after getting her approval, she started asking people to go to the kitchen to serve the food.
Yu Xi was a little confused about her performance. She was just a toy here. Whether she could serve food or not was not her responsibility to answer. However, she happened to be hungry, and if she didn't eat, she would get nothing.
As soon as she sat down at the dining table, Luo Ying walked from the stairs to the hall, walked to sit opposite her, and not long after, Dongfang Xue appeared from nowhere and sat down beside her.
Luo Ying took the initiative to say hello: "Hello, Miss Yuxi."
Yuxi just looked at him and didn't want to speak.
Luo Ying grabbed her dried hair and met her calm gaze: "Actually, Miss Yuxi, do you hate me very much?"
Annoying, I can't really say, it's just that there aren't many people talking to him.
"Do you think you are a heartthrob, and Miss Yu Xi can still be smitten by him?" Dongfang Xue gave him a white look and muttered: "This gentleman is much more handsome than you, don't think that those few in the courtyard can still be fascinated by him?"
It’s great that my little sister likes you.”
"Don't compare me with sir." He was startled by her words, then looked at Yu Xi with a trace of panic: "I didn't want to charm you, really, don't listen to her nonsense, I just want to talk to you
Say hello."
As a sign of friendship, he did not say these four words. When Dongfang Xue caught her, he didn't know what words she would say that were neither shocking nor fatal.
"I didn't misunderstand, let's eat." Yu Xi picked up the bone-white jade bowl that the servant had just given, lowered her head to eat, and said nothing more.
She was the youngest here, even much younger than them, but now she looked older than everyone else.
Luo Ying and Dongfang Xue also knew that she had been in a bad mood, and they didn't feel like saying anything else. They each lowered their heads and picked up the rice in their own bowls.
The meal was so depressing that Luo Ying secretly decided that from now on, when her husband comes back to accompany Miss Yuxi, he will stay far away from her and never appear in her sight to make her angry.
