Xie Mingxi stepped forward and said softly: "Your Highness and I will take you back to your home together."
Fang Ruomeng suddenly woke up and quickly declined: "No need! I will go back alone. I don't need to bother you and His Highness to see you off..."
Xie Mingxi couldn't tolerate her refusal and took her hand into the Fang family's carriage.
Fang Ruomeng was both moved and a little uneasy: "Thank you sister, you treat me so well, I really don't know what to say."
Xie Mingxi smiled casually: "It's a small effort, it's nothing to worry about. We are classmates and have always been good friends. If you say these words again, you are alienating me."
Fang Ruomeng was filled with gratitude, but said no more.
Sheng Hong was a little regretful that the two of them had no time to be alone, but seeing that Fang Ruomeng was alone and alone, he didn't care about it.
Fang Mansion is not far away, and the time has come for two sticks of incense.
Fang Ruomeng didn't speak a word all the way, and it wasn't until the carriage stopped that his mood truly calmed down.
Fang Ruomeng said softly to Xie Mingxi: "Sister Xie, I am not sad about what happened tonight."
"I knew from the beginning that Li Mo didn't like me. In fact, I didn't like him either. It's just that the Li family wanted to marry the Fang family. I was Li Mo's best choice, and Li Mo was my best choice.
"
"Li Xiangru is his biological sister from the same mother, and her relationship is much closer than that of my fiancée. I haven't gotten married yet, and I have no feelings or kindness towards him. In his heart, Li Xiangru is naturally more important than me. This is
It’s human nature and I don’t blame him.”
I'm just a little disappointed and embarrassed.
Xie Mingxi looked at Fang Ruomeng quietly, her eyes as bright as a mirror, clearly reflecting Fang Ruomeng's delicate and slightly depressed face.
Of course she can say comforting words. And she can speak very eloquently with her eloquent tongue! But at this moment, what Fang Ruomeng needs is not comfort, but silent listening.
With Fang Ruomeng's perseverance, she will surely cheer up from her depression soon.
Sure enough, Fang Ruomeng took a deep breath, and a look of determination flashed across his face: "You don't have to worry about me, I've already thought it through. I won't be resentful or depressed because of this trivial matter."
Xie Mingxi only asked: "Do you really want to understand?"
Fang Ruomeng nodded vigorously.
Xie Mingxi said no more. After Fang Ruomeng got off the carriage, she waved to Fang Ruomeng and turned around.
Sheng Hong, who was riding a horse, also waved to Fang Ruomeng, and soon disappeared into the vast night with the carriage.
Fang Ruomeng stood there for a long time, watching his friend's figure disappear completely, and then turned around and entered the Fang Mansion. At first, his steps were slow, but soon, Fang Ruomeng's steps became more and more brisk.
…
Outside General Yin's mansion.
"My home has arrived." Yin Xiaoxiao's cheerful voice came from the carriage: "Sister Xiao, thank you and His Highness the Third Prince for sending me back together. When I have some free time in the future, I will go to the Prince's Mansion to talk to you."
Xiao Yuhan seemed to cover his mouth and chuckled: "Silly sister, it will be your turn to get married next year. You are too busy embroidering the dowry, so you have no time to run to me."
The word "marriage" sounds quite harsh.
The smile in the third prince's eyes condensed, and his ears stood up unconsciously.
However, he heard Yin Xiaoxiao's slightly drunken mutter: "Hey, I don't want to get married at all! I am free at home and no one cares about what I like to do. Once I get married, I have to be with that annoying person.
The guys are facing each other day and night, it feels awkward just thinking about it..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yuhan pinched him gently and said angrily: "You can't say such nonsense anymore. If others hear it, there's no reason not to laugh at you!"
The third prince's heart felt inexplicably hot.
It turns out that Yin Xiaoxiao doesn’t want to marry the fifth prince at all!
Who does she really like in her heart?
The door was opened, and the third prince got off the horse without thinking. He first helped Xiao Yuhan get out of the carriage, and then naturally extended his hand...
Xiao Yuhan looked over in surprise.
The third prince panicked, pretending to be calm, he retracted his hand, smiled and said perfunctorily: "Look at me, after drinking two glasses of wine tonight, I actually lost my head. I almost offended my future sister-in-law."
Yin Xiaoxiao was careless and did not become suspicious. He made a face with a smile and got out of the carriage neatly. He waved to the third prince and his wife, and then entered the Yin Mansion.
The third prince apologized and explained to Xiao Yuhan: "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it. You must not take it to heart."
Men and women are not allowed to be intimate! As a brother-in-law, you should be more solemn towards your future sister-in-law! The third prince has always known etiquette and etiquette, how could he be so careless tonight?
A strange feeling passed through Xiao Yuhan's heart, but it was not revealed on his face. He pursed his lips and smiled and said: "How could I not be clear about Your Highness? I won't take it to heart if you act unintentionally. Sister Yin is the most cheerful and generous person."
, let alone care about it. Your Highness does not need to be grudged."
Then he laughed softly and said: "It's getting late, let's go back home!"
Xiao Yuhan was so gentle and considerate, and the third prince was deeply moved. He suppressed the unnecessary thoughts in his heart and said hello with a smile.
…
The Fourth Prince's Mansion.
Li Xiangru did drink a lot tonight. After getting on the carriage, he closed his eyes and took a deep sleep. The carriage drove smoothly for half an hour, and Li Xiangru fell asleep quietly.
When the carriage stopped, Li Xiangru still didn't wake up. Li Mo got off the horse, walked to the carriage, reached out and knocked on the carriage: "Sister, you must have fallen asleep! Wake up!"
Li Xiangru hummed in confusion, and then called His Highness.
This call from Your Highness directly made Li Mo angry.
Li Mo suddenly opened the car, with a face full of displeasure: "Open your eyes and see who I am? I am the brother who loves you the most! Your Highness is so busy that I don't know where I have time to take you back home!"
Li Xiangru: "..."
Li Xiangru shook his head, blinked hard, and finally managed to wake up.
Seeing his brother's sullen expression, Li Xiangru hurriedly apologized: "I drank too much tonight, and my head is still groggy. I even called the wrong person. Brother, please don't be angry with me."
"
Li Mo snorted softly: "What do I have to be angry with! Okay, you are already outside the house, and it's time for me to go back."
Li Xiangru was in a hurry and shouted: "Brother, I have something to tell you, don't leave in a hurry..."
No matter how Li Xiangru shouted, Li Mo still got on his horse and left without looking back.
The cold night wind blew against his face and ears, and Li Mo couldn't help but shiver. Fang Ruomeng's pretty face suddenly turned pale when he opened his mouth to send Li Xiangru off half an hour ago.
.
Strangely enough, he didn't feel there was anything wrong with what he did at the time. Looking back now, he couldn't help but feel guilty and awkward.
As if he had done something terribly wrong...(To be continued)
