Lu Chi was confused in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He smiled gently and said, "Brother Li and Brother Sheng agreed to wait for Miss Li and Miss Sheng outside the Lotus Pond Academy. I have nothing to do today, so I came with you."
Lin Weiwei said, "I can just go back on my own. When brother Lu has some free time in the future, he might as well go to Egret Academy and pick up the second sister Lu back home."
Lu Chi: "..."
Lin Weiwei was indeed alienating him.
If you think about it carefully, there are actually signs of this happening.
In the past few months, every time he went to the Lin Mansion, Lin Weiwei stayed in the boudoir on the excuse of being busy with schoolwork and rarely saw him. She left early and came back late every day, and she never went with him...
In the past, we were very close, but at some point, there was a gap.
Lu Chi looked steadily at the familiar and beautiful face, feeling a touch of bitterness in his heart.
What did he do wrong? Why is she so distant from him?
He wanted to ask, but Li Mo and others were all there, so he couldn't ask at all.
Lin Weiwei did not raise her head to look at him, and hurriedly said: "I'm leaving first." Then, she quickly walked past Lu Chi.
Lu Chi was gentle by nature and could not act shamelessly to catch up. He watched Lin Weiwei get on the carriage, feeling even more astringent in his heart.
Li Mo and Sheng Xuan looked at each other and exchanged a tacit look.
What's going on here?
It seemed like there was some awkwardness.
Li Mo opened his mouth to break the silence: "Let's go first." Then he left with Li Xiangru.
Lin Weiwei had already left, and Lu Chi had no interest in staying any longer and left soon after.
Sheng Jinyue looked at Lu Chi's figure and bit her lip hard.
Sheng Xuan obviously didn't know Sheng Jinyue's girl's thoughts, and asked with a smile: "Why hasn't cousin Mingxi come out?"
Sheng Jinyue replied firmly: "How do I know about her? Ask her yourself!" Then she got into the carriage with a sullen face.
Sheng Xuan simply ordered the driver to take Sheng Jinyue back to his home, while he continued to wait outside the academy.
…
Another hour passed.
The sky was pitch dark, with a few stars popping up in the sky.
Sheng Xuan waited impatiently. However, when he thought of Xie Mingxi's beautiful face and cunning eyes, he resisted the urge to leave.
Tonight, he must wait until Xie Mingxi.
Finally there were footsteps at the door.
Sheng Xuan has been practicing martial arts since he was a child and has a good eye. His eyes fell on the three blurry figures and he immediately recognized Xie Mingxi's figure. The anxiety and impatience he had been waiting for for a long time was instantly gone.
Sheng Xuan took the initiative to greet them and greeted them one by one with a smile: "Sixth cousin, Miss Yin, cousin Mingxi."
These three girls are none other than the Sixth Princess Yin Xiaoxiao and Xie Mingxi.
All the students in the Haitang Academy were asked to stay for an extra hour, and the three of them had to stay for an extra two hours. The strict Lianfuzi had no intention of relaxing his requirements just because the academy competition was approaching.
Xie Mingxi was tired after a long day of work, and she was not in a good mood when she saw Sheng Xuan. She gave a faint hum and ignored her.
Sheng Xuan didn't mind Xie Mingxi's indifference and said with a smile: "Cousin Mingxi, I've been waiting for you here for more than an hour. It's really admirable that you practiced so late for the academy competition."
Xie Mingxi was too lazy to make excuses with him: "I'm going back to my house. Please help yourself, Mr. Sheng."
After waiting for so long, Sheng Xuan was not willing to let her leave. He immediately said: "Jinyue was too jealous and did something wrong. Mingxi's cousin ignored the past and made her selected for the music competition. It can be seen from this that Mingxi
My cousin has a broad mind."
"Take a rest in two days. How about cousin Mingxi coming to the palace as a guest for a day? You and Jinyue have reconciled as before. My grandfather and aunt will feel happy knowing that."
Ah!
Sure enough, you have no good intentions!
Xie Mingxi twitched her lips: "Who said that Sheng Jinyue and I have reconciled? I hold grudges very much. Anyone who offends me will be remembered for ten or twenty years at least."
Sheng Xuan: "..."
The sixth princess who was silently hit by an arrow: "..."
Yin Xiaoxiao saw that the atmosphere was not right, so she forced herself to smooth things over: "It's getting late. We'll talk about anything later. Let's go back to our homes first!"
Sheng Xuan swallowed his breath and forced a smile: "I'll take you back home."
"No need." The silent Sixth Princess suddenly opened her mouth and said, "I will take Mingxi back to her mansion. You go back to your Huainan Palace."
There was a hint of evil in his words.
Sheng Xuan was a little angry in his heart, but he had to swallow his suffocation and smiled instead: "Since I have my sixth cousin to see me off, I will take the first step."
…
"You hate Shengxuan!"
After getting on the carriage, the sixth princess said something coldly. She looked at Xie Mingxi with a trace of exploration in her eyes.
Sheng Jinyue is indeed annoying. But Sheng Xuan is handsome and noble, and is gentle and attentive to Xie Mingxi. Why does Xie Mingxi hate Sheng Xuan so much?
Could it be that Xie Mingxi had an old grudge with Sheng Xuan in her previous life?
Unfortunately, Xie Mingxi's expression was indifferent and she couldn't see any emotion: "So what?"
The Sixth Princess stared closely at Xie Mingxi's face: "Has he ever offended you?"
Xie Mingxi did not answer but asked: "Why are you asking these questions?"
The Sixth Princess responded naturally: "He is your enemy, and he is also my enemy. I will find a way to deal with him in the future to vent your anger."
Xie Mingxi: "..."
Xie Mingxi couldn't explain the strange feeling that flashed through her heart, and subconsciously responded: "No, I will take revenge myself."
As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I felt a little regretful.
Sure enough, the Sixth Princess' expression darkened, and an astonishing coldness flashed in her eyes: "He really has a grudge against you!" Then, she frowned and thought for a moment, then asked: "Could he have molested you before?"
Otherwise, why does Xie Mingxi hate Shengxuan so much?
This Sixth Princess is astonishingly perceptive. If she lets out a little bit of information, she can guess a few things.
Xie Mingxi kept silent and did not want to say more.
The Sixth Princess did not ask any further questions.
…
After returning to the palace, the sixth princess told Xianghui: "Send the order for me and have someone check Shengxuan."
All the princes in the palace have hundreds of guards.
There are thousands of guards in the Princess Changping Mansion.
The guards around the princes and princesses have all been carefully selected. They have clean family backgrounds, have been trained rigorously since childhood, and are very loyal to their masters.
Emperor Jianwen did not want to favor one person over another, so he also gave the Sixth Princess 500 bodyguards. When the Sixth Princess goes in and out of the palace on weekdays, she has her own bodyguards to accompany her secretly to guard her. If there is any need, just pass on the order.
Xianghui was a little surprised, but without asking any more questions, she responded and left.
Three days later.
A thin piece of paper was delivered to the sixth princess.
Sheng Xuan's personality, hobbies, and close friends were all listed on the paper. Looking at them one by one, there was nothing special about them.
Thinking about it, the old grudges or love entanglements in the past life have not happened in this life. Except for Xie Mingxi, even the most astute secret guards in the world can't find out the clues.
etc!
The Sixth Princess's gaze focused on the last sentence.
The maids serving around Shengxuan were all under the age of fourteen.
The Sixth Princess looked at it intently for a long time, her eyes cold.
