Chapter 231: Life is like tea

After eating, Mu Xueran went back to the room, and coincidentally, Xilie lived opposite her.

"Snow, good night. ”

Xi Lie's voice was low and a little restrained, but it made Mu Xueran's heart full of vigilance.

The smile on the corner of her mouth narrowed a little, and Mu Xue said lightly: "Senior brother, good night." ”

With that, he turned and entered the room and closed the door.

Hearing the detachment in her tone, Xilie narrowed his eyes, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

......

Back in the room, Silie found a number in the phone's call history and dialed it.

Because of the time difference, it was just four o'clock in the morning in China, but the other party quickly picked up the phone when the second bell rang.

"Sir. ”

Xilie said coldly: "Acquire Longqing Group as soon as possible." ”

The other party was stunned for a moment, and was just about to say "yes" when the call was hung up.

Putting away her mobile phone, Xilie poured a glass of red wine and stood in front of the window, looking at the night scene outside the window, thinking that when she was in the restaurant, she held her chin and looked out the window, and her side face was more beautiful than the river view.

The corners of his lips couldn't help but evoke a touch of tenderness, but a cold light flashed in his blue eyes.

......

Villa Frelenya, St. Jotun, Country M.

This is the private villa of Emperor Jiuxiao, and it is also relatively close to K Group.

At six o'clock in the afternoon of St. Jotun time, not long after the emperor arrived at the villa, the housekeeper came to report that Princess Elena had arrived.

Emperor Jiuxiao frowned imperceptibly, and said lightly: "I don't see." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Elena barged in without permission.

The bodyguards of the villa didn't know the news of Emperor Jiuxiao's marriage, and because of Elena's identity, they didn't stop him.

Hearing the sound of high heels stepping on the ground, Emperor Jiuxiao turned his head to look at it and said, "Who let you in?"

The sound is extremely faint.

Elena shrugged, "I knew you wouldn't see me, so I came in myself." ”

Looking at the two bodyguards behind her, Emperor Jiuxiao's gaze was a little cold.

The bodyguard chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly said: "It's a dereliction of duty on the part of my subordinates, please punish Mr." ”

If it had been placed in the past, Emperor Jiuxiao would definitely let them go to the base to receive the punishment, but after meeting Mu Xueran, he seemed to be much more tolerant of the people around him.

Hearing this, Elena was just about to speak, when she saw Emperor Jiuxiao wave her hand and signal them to go out.

The two bodyguards were slightly stunned.

The butler was also a little surprised in his heart, but his psychological quality was obviously stronger than that of the two bodyguards, and he coughed lightly and gave them a look.

The two bodyguards also reacted and quickly retreated.

The housekeeper glanced at Elena and said respectfully to Emperor Jiuxiao: "Sir, I will go down if there is nothing to do." ”

Emperor Jiuxiao bowed slightly.

After the housekeeper went out, Elena sat on the sofa opposite the Emperor Jiuxiao in the posture of a master, raised her eyebrows and said, "I thought you would really punish them." ”

Emperor Jiuxiao glanced at her lightly, and said lightly with thin lips: "What are you doing here?"

"Huh," Elena picked up the teapot on the coffee table, poured herself a glass of water, and said, "You think I'm coming?"

At this time, Ryuuji came in from outside, just heard this sentence, and retorted: "Isn't it every time our boss comes to country M, you will run over with a fart?"

"......" Elena gave him a blank look, and then looked at Emperor Jiuxiao, her tone was a little casual, "It was my father who asked me to come over." ”

Emperor Jiuxiao raised his eyes and looked at her lightly.

"My father wants me to marry you, so naturally I can't wait. ”

Emperor Jiuxiao didn't react, but Long Er snorted coldly.

Elena lowered her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking, and after a while, she raised her head and looked at Emperor Jiuxiao with a little seriousness in her eyes.

"At first, my father took me to see you, and at the first sight of you, I was really a little moved, and I thought at that time, only a man as good as you can be worthy of my status as a princess.

That's why I agreed to my father's request and often went to you, and in my subconscious, you are mine. Even after learning that you were married, I was very unconvinced to test marksmanship with your wife. ”

Elena smiled a little self-deprecatingly, and said, "But not long after that incident, I met a person, a man who really made my heart move, and it was he who gave me the idea of entrusting my life for the first time.

And he treats me very well, and he doesn't flatter me like most people, and he doesn't treat me coldly like you do. On the contrary, he would point out my mistakes and teach me a lot of ways to behave. Slowly, I realized that my feelings for you are not love. ”

Elena hooked her lips and teased, "So, King, you don't have to ignore me like that." ”

"I've seen your lady, she's beautiful and better than me, maybe only someone like her can be worthy of you. ”

From beginning to end, Emperor Jiuxiao was expressionless, until he heard this sentence, his eyes moved.

Elena pursed her lips, and at the same time was a little frustrated, and said in her heart: She is also a princess of a country, and few people dare to ignore her.

And Ryuuji on the side looked at Elena with a strange look in his eyes, and thought: How great is the power of love, how great can it be that the invincible Princess Elena can bow her head and admit that she is not as good as his sister-in-law?

After saying so many words, Elena was also a little thirsty, picked up the teacup and took a sip, the bitterness of the tea instantly hit the entire mouth, and the next second, she tasted a faint fragrance and a trace of sweetness.

Elena looked up at Emperor Jiuxiao and said with some surprise: "This tea is so strange, the tea I usually drink is astringent, and your tea here is actually a little sweet." ”

Emperor Jiuxiao glanced at the teacup in front of him, and said lightly: "Have you heard of the princess, life is like tea?"

Elena didn't expect him to take care of herself, and when she saw him speak, her eyes widened slightly. And after hearing the content, I lowered my eyes and thought about the meaning of this sentence.

As if thinking of something, Elena looked up and said, "You mean to say that tasting tea is like tasting life?"

Emperor Jiuxiao nodded very lightly.

"It is said that the culture of your Z country is broad and profound, and it is true, even drinking tea can taste the philosophy of life. ”

With that, Elena took another sip of tea.

After a while, the butler came again, "Sir, dinner is ready." ”

Emperor Jiuxiao glanced at Elena, who was studying the tea set, and got up and went to the restaurant.

As soon as she sat down, Elena followed.

Sitting opposite Emperor Jiuxiao with her hands on her chest, Elena raised her chin slightly and said, "Princess Ben didn't have dinner either. ”

Emperor Jiuxiao lifted his eyelids and glanced at her lightly, and said to the housekeeper at the door: "Go and prepare one for the princess." ”

With that, grab a knife and fork and cut the steak elegantly.

Elena propped her elbows on the table, dragged her chin, and asked, "Hey, what's your lady's name?"

After a pause, Emperor Jiuxiao raised his eyes and looked at her fixedly.

Elena hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I don't have any malicious intent, I just admire her very much and want to make friends with her." ”
