Chapter 197: A Sudden Surprise
Soon, the faint glint in Xiao Qiming's eyes towards Su Ruozhi receded.
And the reason why Xiao Qiming's interest in Su Ruozhi dissipated so quickly was that at this time, he was only thinking about the matter of the Fragrance Courtyard last night, and he didn't have much to think about anything else.
Second, for Su Ruozhi's face, although it is still good-looking, when I think of it, it is this face, in Su Huayue's courtesy, which not only ruined his plan, but also made him feel ashamed because of her.
After all, at the ceremony that day, she had just made a fool of herself in front of everyone with her front foot, and her back foot came to admit that she had any personal relationship with him, didn't she tell everyone that he Xiao Qiming had an affair with such an ugly woman? Coupled with Su Huayue's rejection of him earlier, he really lost face that day.
But......
Xiao Qiming glanced at Su Ruozhi, such a delicate figure, and a face dressed like a flower, after feeling Xiao Qiming's gaze at her, a faint flush appeared on her face.
What happened earlier is irreparable, but her identity as the second lady of Suhou Mansion will definitely be able to do a lot for him in the future.
Plus her figure......
Actually, he is not a loss.
Xiao Qiming personally raised his slender hand to help Su Ruozhi up, and when his fingertips touched, Su Ruozhi blushed again because of the burning touch of her skin, but she looked very cute.
Xiao Qiming said: "Su... Third Miss, don't be polite. ”
Xiao Qiming paused deliberately, and his slightly hoarse voice was also very good, which suddenly made Su Ruozhi like Xiao Qiming a little more.
Miss Su San.
The fourth prince called her Miss Su San.
The Four Princes remembered her.
Since she remembers her, it means that she must still have a chance.
She knew that even if she made a fool of herself in front of everyone on the day of the ceremony, she was indeed inferior to Su Huayue at that time, but with her appearance, she believed that Xiao Qiming would definitely notice her!
Xiao Qiming even helped her up in person, I heard that Xiao Qiming has not set up a concubine until now, and even no concubine in the house, she is very clean, like this personally helping a woman to get up, Xiao Qiming will definitely not have a few times!
She still has a chance, and she's going to have to grab it!
With Xiao Qiming's support, Su Ruozhi deliberately softened her body and got up, during which she also deliberately tilted Xiao Qiming's body, Xiao Qiming felt it, but he didn't move on his face.
He knows that when he treats this kind of woman, he wants to refuse and welcome, and he can better control her by giving honey little by little. If you give too much honey at the beginning, not only will it be difficult to control it in the future, but you may also come to ask for more, then it is not good.
After Su Ruozhi got up, because of the restrictions of etiquette, she had to distance herself from Xiao Qiming, but the two were still very close.
Su Ruozhi said to Xiao Qiming: "Thank you, Fourth Prince." ”
At this time, Su Ruozhi was still shy, pretending to be weak, and her voice was soft, which seemed to be very pitiful.
Su Ruozhi said again: "The courtiers are playing and practicing the piano near this hall, and they heard the news that the fourth prince is coming to the house, so they came to see you. ”
In fact, where did she happen to come here to see Xiao Qiming, not long after Xiao Qiming came to Su Houfu early in the morning, after she heard the news, she had been pretending to be herself, and she deliberately wandered around the hall and waited for a long time before finding the most suitable opportunity to meet Xiao Qiming.
Su Ruozhi's appearance is still exciting, but Xiao Qiming is not in the mood to appreciate it at this time, and he doesn't care much about whether Su Ruozhi's words are true or false, although from the excessive delicacy of Su Ruozhi's makeup, he can also guess that Su Ruozhi deliberately dressed up before coming to see him.
Xiao Qiming said to Su Ruozhi: "In this way, there is Miss Lao Susan's heart." ”
There was a moment of silence at this point, because Su Ruozhi and Xiao Qiming both had their own thoughts.
After a moment, Su Ruozhi's delicateness pretended to be a little deeper, and then she replied to Xiao Qiming: "It is a blessing for the courtiers to be able to have a heart for the four princes. ”
She deliberately said this a little ambiguously, and even her body, which was already very close to Xiao Qiming, deliberately leaned forward a little.
The meaning of what she did was obvious, that is, to test Xiao Qiming verbally, on the day of Su Huayue's courtesy, she admitted in public that she had a personal affair with him, what did he think.
And she, naturally, was eager to hear Xiao Qiming give her a positive answer.
Xiao Qiming listened to Su Ruozhi's words, and felt the changes in her body movements, so he knew what she was thinking at this time.
But he didn't give her an immediate answer, nor did he immediately state his attitude. He only said: "Miss Su San lives in the inner courtyard of Su Hou Mansion?"
"What?"
Su Ruozhi heard Xiao Qiming's question, and was stunned for a moment.
Her implication is so obvious, shouldn't Xiao Qiming give her an answer that she accepts, rejects, or doesn't answer?
However, what does Xiao Qiming mean when she asks her if she lives in the inner courtyard?
Su Ruozhi didn't react for a while, and Xiao Qiming added: "I don't know what courtyard Miss Su San lives in in Su Hou's mansion?
The question was repeated again, and Su Ruozhi had already fully reacted to this question.
Although she didn't know what Xiao Qiming meant by asking, Su Ruozhi still softened her voice again, and said to Xiao Qiming delicately: "Back to the four princes, the courtiers live in the Zhilan Courtyard in the mansion, and it is in the inner courtyard. ”
Although she replied, she was still curious why Xiao Qiming asked her this question?
Xiao Qiming listened to Su Ruozhi's words, and said plainly: "Zhilan Courtyard is a good name. ”
He said again: "I wonder if Miss Su San can take this prince to Zhilan Courtyard for a walk?"
"W-What?"
Su Ruozhi heard Xiao Qiming's words and looked at him in disbelief.
What does Xiao Qiming mean to see her yard?
However, the inner courtyard in the mansion is inconvenient for ordinary men to enter.
It is inconvenient for foreign men to enter.
Wai man!
Su Ruozhi thought of this, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
Xiao Qiming wants to go around her courtyard, doesn't he think of himself as her foreign man!
In this way, Xiao Qiming admitted the relationship with him that she mentioned at Su Huayue's ceremony?
Su Ruozhi couldn't help but be surprised when she thought of this.
She originally wanted to use various ways to test Xiao Qiming's attitude towards her, but she didn't expect Xiao Qiming to directly admit his relationship with her!
Although Xiao Qiming didn't say it directly, isn't it more direct than saying it directly when he talks about going directly to her Zhilan Courtyard to see!
In addition to the surprise, Su Ruozhi also knew that her surprise should not be too explicit.
She hid some of her emotions, and continued to blush so delicately, deliberately aggravating her blushing and said to Xiao Qiming: "How did the fourth prince suddenly remember to go to see the courtyard of the courtiers?"
