Chapter 66 First Acquaintance
Jiang Chengfeng smiled and bowed, his smile was warm and warm, in great contrast with his own cold and proud temperament, and his inky black eyes seemed to contain a layer of breathtaking brilliance, which made her unable to take her eyes off for a long time.
"But it doesn't look like a ...... at all," she couldn't help but raise her hand, wanting to touch his cheek, but she felt that it was inappropriate, and was about to withdraw it, but his hand was gently pressed by him, covering the angular side of his face.
The moment she touched his skin, her fingers stiffened, and she hurriedly withdrew her hand as if she had been electrocuted, and her face instantly turned red, and she lowered her head in a panic, not daring to look at him again.
Jiang Chengfeng pulled the corners of his lips helplessly, he was still a little anxious, his eyes fell on the two things in her hand, and the scene he met her many years ago couldn't help but appear in his mind.
"Thank you for helping me find the Night Pearl, how should I repay you?"
On the bustling dock, a little girl in a cherry pink dress and a cute double bun tilted her little head and thought very distressedly, "With ......" Suddenly her eyes lit up, and she took off a string of Buddhist beads from her wrist and handed it to him, and said seriously: "I'll give this to you, this is what my mother asked from the temple, and I can keep it safe." ”
He took the bead but did not put it on immediately, her eyes were worried, and she looked at him with some anxiety, "Why? Don't you like it?" But I have nothing of value on me, except this bead ......" As she spoke, she took the bead into her palm like a baby, for fear that he would go back like her.
He couldn't help but laugh, and was about to speak, but he heard someone not far away calling her anxiously.
"My mother is calling me, I'm leaving. ”
She turned and ran to a well-dressed woman with a very good temperament, threw herself happily into her arms, and whispered something to her.
The woman seemed relieved, smiled and stroked her crooked bun, and took her little hand and walked towards the carriage by the side of the road.
When she was about to get into the car, she turned around and winked at him mischievously, and she looked indescribably handsome and cute, and she was likable.
He couldn't help but was about to step forward, but was stopped by his personal attendant, "Childe, the boat is about to leave." ”
At that time, the imperial court was in an eventful autumn, and the people were panicked, and they were often beheaded and robbed of their homes, and his father was in a high position and power, but he was walking on thin ice, so he insisted on sending him to stay abroad at that time, first, to learn advanced military technology from abroad, so that he could better serve the country in the future, and second, to protect him from being implicated in the party struggle of the imperial court.
He understood this, but his father's life was like a mountain, and he couldn't refuse.
Before going to the dock, in order not to be recognized by the spies of the imperial court, he deliberately disguised himself, no wonder Shen Zhiyue would not recognize him.
His mother died in childbirth, he lacked maternal love since he was a child, and grew up under his father's strict teaching, which can be described as cold-hearted and cold-hearted.
But he was so resolute and ruthless, he was attracted by a young but bright smile like the morning glow.
At that time, she was like a butterfly fluttering in her place, inadvertently intruding into his world, and then quickly disappeared.
After he returned to China, he tried his best to find her but couldn't, but he inadvertently reunited with her, he didn't know if it was their fate, but he didn't want to let go of her anymore, even if she was unrecognizable, even if he knew that she had someone else in her heart, and even was pregnant with that person's child, he didn't want to miss her again.
"Were you looking for someone in the capital?"
He still couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart, at that time, he thought she was a young lady from a high-ranking family in the capital, he heard her mother call her Xiaoyue, and later he found Nalan's family, Xinyue looked very similar to her, to be precise, she looked very similar to her mother, because when they first met, she was only ten years old, and her red face was a miniature version of her mother.
However, he still recognized at a glance that Xinyue was not her, but the situation forced him to need a well-connected "wife" to deal with the forced marriage of those elders in the Jiang family's army, and Xinyue did need a marriage to keep the reputation of the Nalan family, so ......
"Hmm. Shen Zhiyue nodded, but her eyes were dark, "My mother was abducted and trafficked to Jiangcheng when she was a child, she was too young at that time, and she only vaguely remembered that she was from the capital, so she would take me to the capital every year, she said that I looked almost exactly like her when she was a child, maybe her family could remember her when they saw me." ”
Although there is little hope, her mother has always been obsessed with finding her biological parents, and she feels that she and they are blood relatives, and as long as they are in the same city, they will definitely be able to sense each other's existence.
"Do you recognize this?" Jiang Chengfeng took out another brocade box out of nowhere and opened it to show her.
She only felt a familiar fragrance coming to her nose, and when she looked closely, she saw that there was an amber exquisite jade pendant in the brocade box, and the unique fragrance was emitted by the jade pendant.
She couldn't help but be stunned, her fingers trembled and she picked it up and looked at it carefully, "It's my mother's jade pendant......" The words stopped abruptly here, because it was not her mother's maiden name carved on it, but ......
