The night falls, and the sky is filled with stars.
The winter night brings a biting chill, accompanied by the cold wind.
Sheng Hong was wearing a thick cloak and didn't feel the cold at all. Xie Mingxi was riding in the Fang family's carriage when she arrived, but now she turned around and rode together, her fair face was quickly flushed by the cold wind.
Sheng Hong took one look and felt heartbroken. He tightened the reins hard and the BMW Black Tan under his crotch stopped immediately.
Xie Mingxi also stopped Ta Xue and turned around to look over: "What's wrong?"
Sheng Hong said nothing, got off his horse and reached out to take off his cloak.
Xie Mingxi frowned slightly and opened her mouth: "I'm not cold, you don't have to give me your cloak..."
Before he finished speaking, Sheng Hong had already turned over on Ta Xue. He put the cloak in his hands on Xie Mingxi's shoulders. He moved his hands from behind her to the front and tied the cloak carefully for her.
It was like hugging her from behind.
I don't know whether it was because the night was too cold or because of the ups and downs in her mood, but the blush on Xie Mingxi's cheeks became deeper and her breathing became slightly faster.
The boy behind her was breathing more rapidly, and his hot breath brushed against her sensitive ears, making her whole body tremble.
Time seems to be frozen at this moment.
A short moment seems like an eternity.
Unfortunately, no matter how slow you move, you can't tie the cloak for just a moment.
Sheng Hong resisted the urge to hug her tightly, retracted his hand, dismounted, and grinned at Xie Mingxi: "How is it? It's not cold anymore!"
…
Of course it's not cold.
The cloak was very thick and warm. My body, which was slightly cool due to the night wind, was wrapped in the thick cloak and quickly warmed up. There was also an inexplicable burning sensation in my heart.
Xie Mingxi didn't move, just looked at Sheng Hong who was standing beside the horse.
Sheng Hong was still wearing women's clothes, with a smile in his bright black eyes.
But in her eyes, she would never mistake his appearance again. No matter whether he was wearing men's clothes or women's clothes, whether he was the "Sixth Princess" or the Seventh Prince, what she saw was the Sheng Hong who wanted to warm her.
.
"Sheng Hong," Xie Mingxi's voice was soft and fast, like a breeze blowing through her ears. If Sheng Hong hadn't listened intently, she would have been almost inaudible: "You are so good to me, you will really spoil me."
No one has ever treated me like this in my previous life or this life.
If you treat me like this, it will make me greedy and want more consideration, concern and love.
You're really going to spoil me.
Xie Mingxi was riding on the horse, slightly lowering his head to look down. Sheng Hong stood beside the horse's belly, but he was a little shorter. He raised his head and looked at Xie Mingxi. A bright smile appeared on that handsome face: "Mingxi, I will
I want to spoil you like this."
No one treated you well before, and you suffered a lot, so you thought your heart was as cold as ice and you would never love someone wholeheartedly again.
In fact, you are not truly cold-blooded. Your blood is also hot, and your heart is also scalding. You also love me, but you just don't want to admit it.
You're awkward and won't come close to me. It doesn't matter, I'll just come close to you.
In the bright white moonlight, a glimmer of water seemed to flash in Xie Mingxi's eyes. This glimmer of water quickly disappeared.
She turned her head and refused to look at Sheng Hong again.
Sheng Hong was secretly happy in his heart, but he didn't say a word. He got back on the horse and walked side by side with Xie Mingxi.
The moonlit night was slightly cold, but Xie Mingxi's heart was surprisingly warm.
…
Arriving outside the Lianchi Academy, Sheng Hong stayed where he was and saw Xie Mingxi entering the academy with his own eyes before he turned around with confidence.
He didn't know that Xie Mingxi turned around again and stared at the same spot for a long time.
It wasn't until Sheng Hong's figure completely disappeared that Xie Mingxi turned around and slowly returned to the dormitory. Xie Mingxi, who was full of thoughts, didn't notice anyone standing outside the door at all, so she pushed the door open and entered.
Gu Shanchang standing outside the door: "..."
Gu Shanchang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he opened his mouth and shouted: "Mingxi, what's wrong with you? You feel like you have lost your soul! Didn't you see that I was standing here?"
Xie Mingxi: "..."
Xie Mingxi suddenly came to her senses. She had never been so embarrassed in her life, and apologized repeatedly: "Master, don't be upset. It was dark and late at night, and I didn't pay attention, so I turned a blind eye to Master."
It's dark and late at night?
Gu Shanchang glanced at the wind lantern under the eaves of the corridor, and nodded meaningfully: "You are right, it is indeed dark and late at night. It is inevitable that you are full of thoughts and did not notice me."
Xie Mingxi's cheeks felt slightly hot.
However, she had a dark heart and a thick face. She quickly regained her composure and stepped aside with a smile: "It's cold outside. Master, please come in and talk!"
Gu Shan hummed, stepped into the room, glanced at Xie Mingxi's cloak, and praised with a smile: "This cloak is thick and beautiful... By the way, I remember you didn't bring a cloak when you went out! Why?
Did you have more cloaks when you came back?"
Facing Gu Shanchang's knowing and smiling gaze, Xie Mingxi felt a burning sensation behind her ears, and finally showed the shyness a girl should have: "Master, please stop laughing at me."
Gu Shan smiled.
You don't need to think twice to know that this cloak belongs to Sheng Hong.
A cloak is nothing. But on a cold night, he gave Xie Mingxi something to keep out the cold without hesitation, which shows that Sheng Hong really puts Xie Mingxi in his heart.
It is a woman's luck in life to meet her beloved.
…
"Mingxi," Gu Shanchang lowered his voice: "What is there to be ashamed of in front of Master? Sheng Hong has you in his heart and treats you well. I am sincerely happy for you."
The heat on Xie Mingxi's face faded slightly, and she said softly: "Thank you, Master. Sheng Hong treats me well, and I am very happy in my heart."
After living for so many years, she had taken care of bedside affairs and given birth to a son. But today, she had truly understood what it felt like to be in love with someone, and how it felt to have someone at the top of her heart.
So beautiful, so warm, so addictive.
How could Chief Gu turn a blind eye to the light shining in Xie Mingxi's eyes? The curve of the corner of his mouth deepened: "You two are indeed a match made in heaven."
After a pause, he whispered again: "After the New Year, you will be fifteen."
"When you are old enough, you will be able to get married. With Sheng Hong's heart, he will definitely want to marry you as soon as possible."
"The harem is not a peaceful place. As Sheng Hong is a prince, the dispute in the East Palace will inevitably involve him. As the seventh prince's concubine, you will also be affected in the future..."
Before he finished speaking, Xie Mingxi opened her mouth and said: "Master, don't worry, I can handle it."
Yes, Xie Mingxi is smart and wise, and Sheng Hong is cunning and sinister. When they join forces, there is no need to be afraid no matter how difficult the situation is.
Gu Shanchang smiled slightly and asked: "From today on, you have officially graduated. What are your plans next?"
Do you want to go back to Xie's family? Or stay in the academy?
Xie Mingxi had obviously thought about this matter for a long time and responded without hesitation: "I want to stay in Lianchi Academy." (To be continued)
