Such a cautious and guarded person was now unprepared and drunk in front of her.
He was a man who treated women extremely coldly and never even asked her to get close to him. However, he took the initiative to help her countless times. He didn't seem to be afraid of getting into trouble with her. He even gave her his personal jade pendant before leaving the capital.
Left to her——
After she came to Ningyang, everything was arranged in detail.
Linxi Mountain was the mountain he carried her down.
Outside the Yinxian Building, it was he who wrapped his cloak around her body - and told her yesterday that he had never done this to any other girl before.
In addition to this, she is probably the person in the world who knows the most about his secrets and worries.
He gave her so many good things, so many special things and exceptions. It would be fine if he said he didn't like anyone, but since he said he had a sweetheart——
Then if she still says that she doesn't know who the person he cares about is either really stupid or just pretending to be stupid.
She is not a fool, and she has never been good at pretending to be stupid and deceiving herself.
The girl looked at the boy who seemed to be sleeping soundly in front of her and said softly: "You have told me all your secrets, so I might as well tell you a secret - I also have someone I like. As for who he is
, you must have guessed it, right?"
As for when she fell in love with him, she couldn't tell.
Maybe it was after coming to Ningyang, or maybe it was earlier when I was exchanging letters with him——
She has been thinking a few days ago, is this really like her? Could it be that she has misunderstood her feelings? What should it feel like to like someone? Is it like her?
But now she suddenly figured it out.
Liking is liking, and you don’t need a very smart brain to distinguish it. Because once the feeling of liking appears, even if you don’t understand what liking is at all, you can clearly know in your heart that this is liking.
The girl slowly leaned forward, approached the boy with his eyes closed, and carefully looked at the person in front of her.
She had secretly looked at him many times, but this was the first time he was so open and honest.
Looking at it so carefully, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart - I really can't blame her for being superficial and vulgar, and being blinded by beauty. This is actually this person, he is too good-looking.
She couldn't help but raise her hand and gently touched his eyelashes with one finger.
As if disturbed by her actions, the young man suddenly frowned.
She quickly retracted her hand as if she had a guilty conscience and seemed to have a subconscious reaction.
However, after observing secretly for a while, I saw no sign that he was about to wake up.
This time she was much bolder and stroked his slightly frowned eyebrows with her fingers.
Seeing his eyebrows slowly unfurling, Xu Mingyi also had a little smile in his eyes.
It is really a good thing to like someone and know that that person also likes you.
As for why he refused to say it clearly——
Since he said "can't", it didn't mean he didn't dare - she knew that, like her, he was not a timid or hesitant person.
Presumably he must have his own considerations.
Perhaps it is due to the trade-off between the two families, or it may be related to the discoveries he mentioned today. It may be an exaggeration to say that he is too busy to take care of himself, but what is in front of him is indeed not a stable and clear life.
situation.
She didn't blame him for being too hesitant to face this relationship——
On the contrary, she felt it was a sign of being taken seriously.
Although she fell in love with someone for the first time, and she was very happy about it, she was not a little girl who had not experienced anything. The crisis in the Zhenguo Palace had not yet been resolved, and she still had many things to do and go to.
And he is the same. His identity dictates that he must think twice before acting.
It was possible to leave everything behind regardless, but she would not make that choice, nor would she accept him doing that, nor would she even think about it.
A good relationship should make each other better, rather than making trouble for a relationship whose shortcomings have not been eliminated - in that case, even if they are together, they are destined not to last long.
But this does not mean that she takes her feelings towards Wu Chao too lightly, but in her eyes, the relationship between the two is not a matter of life and death. It seems that as long as she chooses Zhenguo Gongfu, she must
Abandoning this feeling - that's not the case.
She felt that Wu Chao's choice not to say anything was not because he wanted to give up this budding love - if he chose to give it up, he would not have a drink with her tonight to talk about his concerns.
Therefore, this problem just needs to be solved and balanced.
She thought that as long as there was a will, there would be a solution in the future.
To put it bluntly, the biggest obstacle is that I may not be able to continue sitting on the throne for long.
Therefore, she was very confident that Wu Chao would eventually fall into her hands.
As for now, it’s not a bad thing that he refuses to say——
If she likes him, she will choose to respect his considerations and decisions.
And she also prefers relationships to be natural, so that she and he can be more relaxed.
Isn't there a saying that says, "You can't eat hot tofu if you're in a hurry?"
but……
Xu Mingyi gently poked the handsome young man's face with his finger, and subconsciously moved closer.
Being so close, she could even smell his fresh and clean breath that even the aroma of wine couldn't cover up.
This piece of tofu looks really delicious...can she take a bite first?
After drinking two bottles of wine, the girl, whose mind was a little confused, thought to herself.
At this time, from the corner of her eye, she saw Tianmu squatting on a chair nearby, his eyes widening.
The girl raised her eyes and glanced over. The big bird immediately covered its eyes with its wings.
--Go on, it can't see anything!
Xu Mingyi woke up, sat up straight, and felt a little ashamed of what he had just done. Fortunately, he stepped back from the brink in time and did not really become a traitor.
The hangover soup from the kitchen was quickly delivered.
After helping Xiao Qi drink the bowl of hangover soup to Wu Chao, Xu Mingyi said: "It's inconvenient to go back to the city when he's so drunk. Let's help him down and rest here for the night - remember to find someone to guard him at night.
Come on, pick someone smart and thoughtful."
A drunk person, and a drunk person for the first time, cannot live without someone to look after him.
"Don't worry, Miss Xu." Xiao Qi responded with a smile: "I will personally guard the young master."
According to Sui Jiang, this was the first time that the young master had been drunk, and he had to be careful not to allow the maids in this other courtyard to take advantage of the young master.
The young master is already clean and self-sufficient, not to mention that now that he has a master, it is even more unsuitable for him to cause trouble.
Xu Mingyi also smiled: "That's perfect."
Xiao Qi always feels at ease when doing things.
Xiao Qi called Sui Jiang to come in.
Sui Jiang glanced at the girl standing there, her eyes inexplicably complicated.
