Miao Qi originally ran towards Rong Yuanzhou with a shy expression on his face.
But after running a few steps, the girl's expression suddenly changed.
Mi Xiayao and Rong Yuanzhou both looked at her.
Miao Qi couldn't hide the disdain in his eyes, "Why are you here?"
"Is it weird that I'm here?" Mi Xiayao raised her eyebrows and threw it in question.
This moment really made Miao Qi very angry.
"You! What qualifications and status do you have to participate in this Rong family's family banquet!"
Miao Qi raised his hand and pointed at her nose. The little girl was so angry that she couldn't even speak clearly.
Mi Xiayao looked at Rong Yuanzhou. The culprit coughed slightly in embarrassment, then turned his face away to avoid her gaze.
But just by looking at it like this, Miao Qi really misunderstood the relationship between Mi Xiayao and Rong Yuanzhou.
Suddenly, the little girl's face turned pale. She bit her lower lip and stumbled back.
"You! You wanton woman! Dirty! Disgusting!"
Miao Qi stamped her feet angrily, turned around and walked away again like a gust of wind.
"Is she sick?" Mi Xiayao was confused. She was scolded quite unpleasantly for no reason.
But the other party didn't do any real harm to her.
It is not in line with Mi Xiayao's personality to ask Mi Xiayao to chase him and scold him now.
Rong Yuanzhou didn't have any feelings for Miao Qi, he just regarded her as a sister with a foreign surname who always appeared in the family.
He touched the back of his neck and said casually: "She has been taken good care of by the Miao family since she was a child. She is probably arrogant."
Although Mi Xiayao knew that Miao Qi had been targeting her, today's incident was not surprising.
She just thought about taking care of Miao Qi when she was free one day.
"Miss Mi, why don't we go there for a stroll? Over there, my mother will hire a specialized gardener to plant all kinds of flowers."
Rong Yuanzhou pointed to the flower bed not far away and opened the door.
Mi Xiayao raised her head and looked at Rong Yuanzhou carefully. She could vaguely feel that he was about to sell medicine in his gourd.
But what to sell...
She readily agreed, "Okay."
Then take the move and see what he is going to do.
The two of them arrived at the flower bed one after another. It was far away from the center of the banquet and the environment seemed more quiet.
Mi Xiayao looked at the flowers at her feet and said casually: "There is no need to beat around the bush between Master Rong and me, right?"
"Sure enough, nothing can escape Miss Mi's eyes. I really have something on my mind that I want to tell the girl."
Rong Yuanzhou was not surprised by her reaction, and there was no surprise in her gentle voice.
A conversation between two people is like calm boiled water.
There is a feeling of respecting each other as guests, but also feeling alienated and isolated.
"Since the first time I saw Miss Mi on the street that day, I have never forgotten her. Especially when I met her several times later, I became more and more considerate of her. The conversation I had with her that day
As I said, if someone in the imperial city bullies you, I will do my best to protect the girl."
There is countless sincerity in Rong Yuanzhou's words.
But when Mi Xiayao heard this sentence from her perspective, she was neither ecstatic nor panicked.
The woman stands tall and straight, with a straight back and a calm aura around her body, and her charming face is always calm and indifferent.
"Is this the first time Mr. Rong has said these words to a girl?"
Her tone of voice was light, but she sounded like a woman who had gone through all kinds of experiences, easily revealing Rong Yuanzhou's little thoughts.
He exclaimed in shock, "How did you know!?"
He only heard the woman chuckle, as if she was proud and easy-going as if she didn't take his words to heart.
"Master Rong has always been upright. I wonder how an upright gentleman with strict family rules and always obeying his parents' arrangements and the advice of his matchmaker would make a private lifelong commitment to a woman, or a woman he has divorced."
Her eyes were full of frankness and she told the truth of the matter clearly.
It was like peeling off a piece of fake skin that Rong Yuanzhou was wearing on his body.
The other party's original gentle smile gradually faded a lot.
She realized that Rong Yuanzhou was no longer pretending, so she suppressed her smile and met his gaze openly.
"Either the Rong family told you that wooing me might be useful to you; or maybe the nobleman next to Mr. Rong said that no matter what method you use to win me over, it might be useful to him.
"You are even willing to use the fact that someone in the Imperial City is bullying me to hint me to find a backer like you to prevent him from bullying me again.
"Really? Rong Yuanzhou."
Mi Xiayao finished speaking in one breath and tore apart this false confession scene with her own hands.
Rong Yuanzhou's face was already very unnatural.
"Where did you realize something was wrong?"
He stopped pretending at all, and his deliberately gentle speech became bland and indifferent at this moment.
Without the idle conversation, Mi Xiayao felt much more relaxed.
She raised her lips and chuckled, "I think it's really outrageous that Mr. Rong would extend an olive branch to me at this juncture."
Behind Rong Yuanzhou, in addition to the Rong family, were the Concubine Rong in the palace and her prince, His Highness the Third Highness.
She could guess the purpose of Rong Yuanzhou and His Highness the Third Highness even if she didn't think carefully about the conspiracy involved.
Isn't it because Mi Xiayao was targeted by the prince? They thought she hated the prince from then on and wanted to use her soft knife to attack the prince.
"How come you can see that?" Rong Yuanzhou's handsome brows suddenly wrinkled, and his face showed a rare look of confusion and confusion.
Mi Xiayao originally thought that the other party would understand what she meant. She was just about to leave when she heard Rong Yuanzhou say this.
She stood speechless and looked at Rong Yuanzhou for a long time.
Finally, he asked tentatively: "Master Rong, do you really know what is wrong?"
He really doesn't seem to know.
"The person that the prince is interested in is me, and it is me who he is trying so hard to get. Mr. Rong told me at this juncture, if your heart is with me, you are not afraid that one day, the prince will rape a daughter of the people, let me tell you
, that is an invisible..."
Her last words were not clear, but she constructed a hat with her hands above her head.
If that's the case, he won't be able to understand it.
It is understandable that the Rong family was defeated in this fight.
With this kind of brain, why should he fight with Pei Xingyuan?
When she was accusing Rong Yuanzhou of not being very smart, Rong Yuanzhou's face turned into the color of pig liver visible to the naked eye.
And at this juncture, a man's voice suddenly appeared beside him.
"Is this why you told me that you came to the Rong family to attend the family banquet with this group of people when you left the house to do something?"
Pei Xingyuan didn't know when he appeared on the Rong family's territory. At this moment, his face was quite embarrassed.
