Cheng Qiao and Cuiru's small bodies were quickly overwhelmed by the crowd. The passers-by rubbed shoulders, and they didn't have time to see every face, so they had no choice but to follow the epidemic, shouting as they walked: "Zhu Xing!"

However, the sound of manpower shouting was quickly muffled by the noise around him, and Cheng Qiao began to miss the modern loudspeakers and service desks very much.

People are crowded, feet are stepping on their feet, and after a while, Cheng Qiao is drenched in sweat, takes out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, and swings to fan himself to relieve heat. Cuiru's situation beside her was not much better, and she pleaded with her breathlessly: "Girl, I can't walk, can I rest?"

Cheng Qiao pulled her and replied, "How can people rest here, find a place with few people." ”

The eyes were full of people, and after searching for a while, I found a sparsely populated corner, which was a little dark.

It's better than nothing, Cheng Qiaoxin said, and said to Cuiru, "Let's take a break here first, and then continue to look for it later!"

"Good. Cuiru replied.

The two came to the corner hand in hand, this place was really much more secluded than the street, Cheng Qiao only felt that his eyes were clear, his ears were clean, and the whole world was clean. When he calmed down, he sighed: "It's terrible, I will never come to this kind of place in the future......"

Cuiru rested for a while, finally didn't catch any longer, and after recovering her vitality, she asked, "Girl, where should we go to find Zhu Gongzi next?"

Cheng Qiao thought about it and was a little dazed: "I don't know either!"

The two glanced at each other, and Cheng Qiao sighed helplessly: "Where did this Zhu Xing go?"

As he was talking, he heard a voice behind him: "Zhu Xing is here!"

The master and servant were both startled, turned their heads at the same time, and then saw Zhu Xing walking out of the darkness shaking a folding fan.

Cheng Qiao patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, raised his small fist and smashed it on Zhu Xing's chest, and scolded in his mouth: "You guy! ”

Zhu Xing immediately raised the folding fan to block it, and arched his hand and said, "Miss Cheng, don't be angry, this matter is at fault!"

Cheng Qiao also wanted to beat him in a hurry, and after a while, he calmed down and remembered the identity of the other party, and was glad that his fist didn't hit him.

Now that the person has been found, she is relieved.

Cuiru asked: "Girl, when we find Zhu Gongzi, should we continue to shop, or go back to Zhuangzi?"

Cheng Qiao looked at the increasingly surging crowd in the distance, and really didn't have the courage to continue the torrent, but he finally came out for a trip, and he was unwilling to go back like this, and suddenly fell into contradictions.

Zhu Xing saw that her two eyebrows were about to crouch into a figure-eight shape, so he put away the folding fan in his hand, turned around, and opened it with a snap, and then said: "I remember that there is a 'Taoyuan Restaurant' in this town, right?

"That's right, that's right!" Cuiru nodded again and again, and said skillfully, "Girl, let's go to Taoyuan Restaurant and sit down, and by the way, have some supper or something......"

When it comes to Taoyuan Restaurant, Cheng Qiao remembered that he had just crossed the threshold and had a fight with the culprit in front of him, and finally returned in defeat. When the road encountered heavy rain, he took Zhu Xing's master and servant into his own home. Now that I have traveled to ancient times for the second time, I have met him for the first time and saved his life, what kind of inextricable fate is this!

Cuiru didn't know that Cheng Qiao was entangled in her heart, but begged her vigorously, and finally got her approval, and happily took the initiative to open the way for them in front and successfully reached the destination.

The business of Taoyuan Restaurant is several times better than usual, the hall is full of people, not to mention, the guests who have no place have a stool from the aisle to the door, and the long table and stool that are temporarily set up outside are also full, leaving only a small road where only one person passes, the shopkeeper is busy behind the counter, and the small two running halls are running in front of each table, but there are still guests pouring in.

Fortunately, Cheng Qiao's identity was there, and he was respectfully greeted on the second floor without waiting for a seat, and the location facing the street could give you an unobstructed view of the scenery on the street. When he stepped into the gate, Zhu Xing didn't open the pot, pointed to the ground and whispered in Cheng Qiao's ear: "That's where we met back then, right?"

Black history! Black history. Cheng Qiao tried hard to erase the past, but Zhu Xing still thought it was funny, and kept biting her ears with interest, until she said that she couldn't dig a hole in the ground with a red face, and Zhu Xingcai laughed and went up to the second floor first.

After the two of them took their seats, Xiao Er quickly gave them a pot of peach blossom tea, several peach blossom cakes, and some appetizing snacks on the table, and Cuiru obediently stood aside to pour tea and water for them.

Zhu Xing picked up a piece of peach blossom crisp and put it in his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it, and took another sip of fragrant and sweet peach blossom tea, before he said with a smile: "I finally sat in Taoyuan Restaurant and ate peach blossom cake and tasted peach blossom tea, and it was not in vain." ”

Cheng Qiao was a little surprised that Zhu Xing was exceptionally cheerful tonight, and his smile was more, completely different from the little fresh meat she saw when she was young, and it was also the same as the solemn young man she had when she first met, although she was smiling, but inadvertently she could always see a trace of sadness in his eyes?

Wait a minute...... What a strange combination of joy and sorrow?

She leaned her head over, followed the example of Zhu Xing to her before, and whispered in his ear, "What happened? Are you unhappy?"

The smile on Zhu Xing's face froze, and the hand playing with the folding fan paused, and the fan fell on the table, and after a long time, he held it in his hand again: "Miss Cheng, what are you talking about?"

Cheng Qiao learned his usual movements, supported his chin with one hand, tilted his head and stared at him: "If you're not happy, you're not happy, why force your face to laugh! You are not a person who loves to laugh in the first place......

Zhu Xing pursed his lips and glared at her, and sure enough, he didn't smile anymore.

Cheng Qiao raised his hand, poked his fingers on his face, and nodded: "Hmm...... That's you. I was smirking just now!"

"......" Zhu Xing was even more speechless.

Cheng Qiao instructed Cuiru: "You go to Huzi and ask him to prepare some more pastries for us to bring back." Cheng Qiao also learned today that the young boy who ran the hall back then is now a young man.

"Huh. Cuiru obediently left.

There are only Zhu Xing and Cheng Qiao left in the private seat, but the left and right next door are only separated by screens, and the confidentiality is naturally not as good as the box.

Cheng Qiao had to lower his voice and ask in Zhu Xing's ear, "Do you have anything to say to me?"

The weather was already hot, and the hot breath exhaled by the girl fell behind the root of his ear, which made him more and more upset, and his hand was still plucking the fan pendant, pretending to say casually: "Miss Cheng is afraid that she has misunderstood, and she has nothing to say." ”

Cheng Qiao retreated and widened the distance between the two: "That's good." I'll just change the question and ask Zhu Gongzi to tell me where he went just now?"

Zhu Xing's face finally tightened, and he stared at Cheng Qiao motionlessly.

Cheng Qiao was not to be outdone and competed with him.

After a while, Zhu Xing was defeated, lowered his head and whispered: "My father has died......"

"This ......" Cheng Qiao didn't expect to wait for this answer, and was a little flustered for a while, remembering that He Yan's father died suddenly, at that time she was sad for him and wanted to be by his side to comfort him, but the young man in front of him was not He Yan, and he couldn't be as intimate with him as He Yan, but when the young man with a face similar to He Yan showed a trace of sadness, Cheng Qiao also felt sad, and stretched out his hand to comfort him but was rejected by the young man.

"You don't have to comfort me. My father has been ill for a long time, and I have long expected that there will be such a day......" Zhu Xing still lowered his head and muttered, "There is no father and son in the heavenly family. How can I be sad, there are still many things for me to do, if I can't inherit the title, my mother and I will ......"

Zhu Xing didn't continue to say the following words, and there was no need to say more, Cheng Qiao already understood: If he can't become the next King Xing, there is only a dead end. She also knew that she was weak in ancient times, and she was powerless to help him, so she could only sigh.

Zhu Xing raised his head suddenly, Cheng Qiao's beautiful apricot eyes were shining with tears, he stretched out his finger and wiped it gently for her, and asked softly, "What are you crying about?"

Cheng Qiao didn't know what he was crying about, so he could only reply sullenly: "I feel uncomfortable." ”

Zhu Xingxin said, the eldest brother who should have been close is still calculating himself for the throne, but the girl in front of him, who has not known him for a long time, is feeling sorry for himself, he suddenly feels funny, but after laughing, he can't help but recall the past in his mind, taking in himself who had an awkward relationship with her, and many years later, he saved himself who was seriously injured and was on the verge of death, and now he is still sad for himself...... A warm current suddenly gushed out from the bottom of his cold heart, hooked the corners of his mouth, and revealed the most sincere smile since he met Cheng Qiao, not a laugh in bitterness, not a smile when threatening, not a polite smile when dealing with things, eyebrows and eyes slightly curved, a shallow smile, holding Cheng Qiao's hand and saying, "You are a good girl!"

At the last moment, Cheng Qiao was still in a low mood, and at this moment, Zhu Xing sent a good person card, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed: This style of painting has become too fast.

Fortunately, Cuiru quickly went and returned, still carrying a food box in her hand.

The two people in the seat did not have the heart to stay, and then left in a hurry.

Cheng Qiao slept for a long time in the afternoon, but she couldn't sleep when she lay in bed at night, and when she closed her eyes, her mind automatically replayed the scene in the afternoon dream, He Yan sat in the big white and fell into the cracked hole in front of her eyes, but she couldn't do anything.

Cheng Qiaoxin said, and snorted twice, talking nonsense, how can I curse him, he must be fine!

Tossed and turned on the bed, and only fell asleep when the sky revealed the white of the fish's belly, and woke up the next day It was already three poles in the sun, and the temples were still faintly painful.

Cuiru said while serving her to wash: "The girl should not go to the yard to sleep in the future, she sleeps too much during the day, and she can't sleep well at night." ”

Cheng Qiao yawned and nodded: "That's the reason." I still have to sleep in the afternoon, but I can't sleep for so long, you can help me watch the hours in the future, if you sleep, remember to wake me up!"

As soon as Cuiru responded, a servant woman broke in in a panic and said to Cheng Qiao: "Girl, girl...... Oh no, the Liu family has come to the door!"

Cheng Qiao was a little puzzled, and asked casually: "What Liu family!"

Cuiru, who was combing her hair, paused, and the panicked servant woman was also stunned, and no one spoke in the room for a while.

After half a pillar of incense, Cuiru said with difficulty: "Girl, have you forgotten the family affair that Mrs. Jì ordered for you? This is the little son of the Liu family!"

This time it was Cheng Qiao's turn to be stunned, and after a while, he exclaimed, "What?
