There is no moon or stars tonight, and the night is dark.
The figure standing in the dark seemed to blend into the night.
Xie Mingxi drank several glasses of wine and was far less alert than before. It wasn't until she got closer that she suddenly noticed the figure standing in the shadows.
"Miss, I'm a slave." A familiar voice sounded, and the woman who appeared in front of Xie Mingxi was about twenty-six or seven years old, with beautiful appearance and a full smile.
It was Xianghui who came!
Xie Mingxi's heart dropped back to her chest, and she asked with a smile: "Why are you here?"
Xianghui responded with a smile: "I went to the Xie Mansion first, and I didn't expect to miss it. I heard Master Xie said that the young lady will live in the academy from today, so I came to the academy again."
Xie Mingxi went to a banquet with friends, but Xianghui had to wait in the academy.
Before Xie Mingxi could continue to ask, Xianghui stepped forward and took out the letter from his sleeve: "This is the letter sent by your highness, your servant."
We've only been apart for one day, why do you have to write a letter if you have something important to do?
Xie Mingxi accepted the letter with some surprise.
Xianghui said no more, bowed and left.
…
Gu Shanchang remained silent until Xianghui left, then he smiled and joked: "Why don't you go back to the house quickly and read the letter?"
Xie Mingxi responded calmly: "No hurry, I'll take Master back to the dormitory first."
Gu Shanchang was secretly amused.
Who hasn't gone through the frivolous days of youth? However, in terms of city government, Xie Mingxi, a thirteen-year-old girl, is far better than her peers. It is not easy to see what her true emotions are.
Sheng Hong hurriedly sent someone to deliver the letter. How could Xie Mingxi not feel ashamed or happy? She just pretended to be in front of her master.
Gu Shanchang didn't say anything more and quickly returned to his dormitory.
Xie Mingxi moved into the house next door to Chief Gu Shan. She was not in a hurry to open the letter, took a bath and changed clothes, and sent the two maids to rest separately, and then opened the letter under the candlelight.
Familiar and straight handwriting came into view.
Xie Mingxi slightly curved the corners of her mouth.
When the "Sixth Princess" first entered Lianchi Academy, her handwriting was really terrible. It was an eyesore to her. Under her strict "supervision", the "Sixth Princess" has been diligently practicing her calligraphy. After three years, her handwriting was finally barely passable.
It catches the eye...
Seeing the familiar handwriting, it suddenly felt like seeing a classmate and friend who was practicing calligraphy in the past.
Then, the classmate friend raised his head and turned into a handsome young man.
With these images flashing through his mind, Xie Mingxi raised the corner of her mouth with a subtle hint of sadness. She couldn't tell what it felt like.
Well, it’s better not to think about this and just read the letter!
…
Mingxi, this day, my mind is in a trance and I can't rest at ease.
When I open my eyes, I see the waiter instead of you. When I eat and drink medicine, I don’t have your smile to accompany me. When I read, I don’t have your sweet voice. When I want to talk to someone, I don’t have you in front of me.
When I'm not with you, are you still uneasy this day?
Do you feel empty and confused like me, as if you have lost something?
You were sitting in the academy listening to lectures, but I was missing from your side. When you were eating in the cafeteria, I was not around you. You were taking a nap in the dormitory, but you didn’t see me when you opened your eyes. You practiced martial arts with Mr. Lian in the evening, but you and I were not there.
Hey, move after move.
Mingxi, do you miss me?
Mingxi, I miss you very much.
Today, I know what "one day without seeing is like three autumns apart"! Only then do I appreciate the feeling of "being haggard for the sake of beauty", and only then do I understand what "thinking about you is like thirsty".
This is only the first day. I'm already so miserable. I wish I could spread my wings and fly to your side right away. I wish I could continue to sleep with you as a classmate and be inseparable like before...
The paper is full of longings, spraying out through the thick ink.
Xie Mingxi's eyes softened a bit, and she read the letter over and over three times. Her heart, which had been restless all day, quietly calmed down at this moment.
She put the letter away and put it in the box beside her pillow.
Then, close your eyes and fall asleep for a good night's sleep.
…
Xie Mingxi was very trustworthy, and he treated the guests for seven days in a row.
All my classmates have gained weight.
After Dong Hanlin was grabbed by his ears and left on the first night, he took leave the next day. He did not come to the academy for several days. It was not until the last night that he showed up again.
However, this time, no matter who tried to persuade him, Dong Hanlin righteously refused without even drinking.
When the banquet was over, Mrs. Dong specially waited outside Dingxiang Tower.
Seeing that Dong Hanlin didn't smell of alcohol at all, Mrs. Dong didn't lose her temper anymore. She stepped forward and took Dong Hanlin's arm with a smile. She was delicate and gentle. I don't know what she whispered in a low voice. Dong Hanlin grinned and his old face shone.
, happily took Mrs. Dong’s hand and left.
Several ladies were amazed.
"This Mrs. Dong is not always aggressive and difficult to deal with." Master Ji laughed softly and said, "She looks quite docile tonight."
Su Fuzi pursed his lips and smiled, then continued: "This is really awesome!"
When he is fierce, he is like a lion from the east of the river, and when he is gentle, he is like a ball of cotton. With his beauty and charm, and his skills, it is no wonder that he can hold Dong Hanlin firmly in the palm of his hand.
Master Lian curled his lips slightly when he heard the word powerful.
She is not like ordinary women by nature, and she disdains feminine virtues such as meekness. She even scorns such "powerful skills".
If a man is disobedient, just give him a beating!
If that doesn't work, give him another beating!
…
The masters laughed in low voices, and the girls' laughter became much clearer and louder.
"Sister Xie, you really kept your word, and you kept treating me for seven days!" Yin Xiaoxiao patted Xie Mingxi on the shoulder heartily, and said with a grin: "I like people like you who keep their word!"
The words made all the girls laugh.
Xie Mingxi's eyebrows were curved, with a pleasant smile in her eyes.
Yan Zhenzhen also came forward with a smile and put her arms around Xie Mingxi's shoulders while she was still drunk: "That's all, I will never mention the fact that His Highness the Seventh Prince wore women's clothes to deceive us again."
Sheng Jinyue curled her lips: "You are easy to bribe."
Suddenly there was a round of boos.
"I invited you to Dingxiang Tower seven times in a row, and Sister Xie's personal money has almost been spent. What else do you want?"
"In the past, when you made mistakes and offended everyone, I never saw you apologizing for dinner. When you come to Sister Xie's place, you are particularly picky."
"That's right! I've never seen you so picky!"
Sheng Jinyue: "..."
Sheng Jinyue was attacked by a group of people for her casual words. Even though Sheng Jinyue had a strong face, she was a little overwhelmed. She reluctantly lowered her head and gave in: "I was joking casually, how could you take it seriously?"
Xie Mingxi was in a good mood and was too lazy to argue with Sheng Jinyue. She turned to Lin Wei and smiled: "It's getting late. Let's go back separately. Be more careful on the way."
Lin Wei smiled and nodded. When he raised his head, he was suddenly startled. Suddenly he reached out and held Xie Mingxi's arm tightly: "Sister Xie, look over there!"
Xie Mingxi was stunned and followed Lin Weiwei's gaze.
