Chapter 66: Parting Ways
Before she finished speaking, Mu Yan hurriedly followed: "I'll stay and look for it with you, there is such a big place on the mountain, you can't tell when you will find it alone." Besides, the three of us came together, and if we want to go back, we have to go back together. ”
Seeing that she insisted, Wan Chun smiled slightly to see what Ji Yuan meant.
Ji Yuan was very impatient, but seeing that Wanchun and Mu Yan were bound to stay and find Zhou Xiang, even if he didn't care about Wanchun's meaning, he had to worry about Mu Yan's meaning. After all, his previous reputation had been inadvertently ruined by Zhou Xiang, and it was rare that the beauty was close at hand at this moment, and it was a top priority to leave a good impression on her, so he said: "In this case, it is not safe for you two female students to be in the mountains after all, I think it is better for the big guys to find her together." Turning around, he asked Zhang Jingtong, Zhao Guodong, and Liu Bingjun, "Do you have anything else?" ”
Even if Zhang Jingtong had something, seeing that Wanchun was here at the moment, he had become nothing, so he shook his head and smiled: "I have nothing to do, so let's go with you to find Mi Si Zhou." ”
Among the four princes, two of them have expressed their determination, and the rest of Zhao Guodong and Liu Bingjun are also the only ones who have nothing to do, anyway, they are having fun everywhere, it is better to stay here and follow Ji Yuan and Zhang Jingtong, and there can be two scenes to watch. Look at the meaning of Chao Muyan, it is clear that he is ruthless to Ji Yuan's flowing water, and Ji Yuan, as the authority, is confused, and blindly falls into the flowers, which makes people laugh dumbly. Looking at the fourth lady of the Li family and Zhang Jingtong, I don't know if the former is still young and ignorant, or he is alert and smart enough, and he shows favor to the latter Zhang Jingtong. She's always been a little evasive—if she's really scheming, of course. Maybe it's because you want to get away with it, but it's not known.
The two of them looked at each other, made up their minds and said in unison, "We're fine." Let's go together. ”
Ji Yuan was so happy, he clapped his hands and commanded: "That's good, there are three forks in the road ahead, all of which are going down the mountain." There was only one way up the mountain, and since we didn't see Miss Zhou on the road, she must have gone down the mountain, but I don't know which one she took. We have six people here, divided into three ways, and each of them went down the mountain to look for it. Whoever finds it first is waiting for the other two teams to meet in the locker room at the racecourse, and then it will be decided whether to continue playing or go home together. ”
Wan Chun didn't know the road conditions on the mountain, and when he saw that Ji Yuan's analysis was the head, he nodded and smiled: "This idea is very good, but how can the six of us divide into three roads?" ”
Ji Yuan's eyes rolled, and he thought about it: "Isn't it easy to divide into three ways, you, Mu Yan, and Bingjun are all familiar with Zhou Xiang." Then divide you into three, I don't know Jing Dong and Guo Dong very well with her, so I will form a team with the three of you, do you think it will be possible? ”
"This ......" Wan Chun hesitated slightly. What kind of calculation Ji Yuan made, she knew it in her heart. But if you really divide it like this, you will definitely join Zhang Jingtong or Zhao Guodong in the team. Isn't that unfamiliar?
Her embarrassment was so obvious, Zhang Jingtong saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart. stepped forward to make a decision for her and said, "Then, according to Ji Yuan's meaning." I'll be on a team with Miss Four. ”
As soon as his words fell, Liu Bingjun and Zhao Guodong, who were standing beside him, suddenly woke up, and hurriedly hooked their shoulders and laughed: "Coincidentally, the two of us are planning to be on a team, so the rest is Ji Yuan and Miss Chao's team?" ”
When the two of them are serious, they can be described as beautiful sons, but when they make trouble, they are not inferior to Ji Yuan and Zhang Jingtong, Ji Yuan is a secret in his private heart, but he asked the two of them to say it in front of Mu Yan, and his face was hot for a moment, and he just wanted not to let these two people underestimate him, so he stiffened his mouth and said: "I am also planning to team up with one of the two of you, why did you discuss it so quickly?" ”
The harder his mouth is, the more weak his heart is, the four princes are also playing together to the big, and their tempers have long been clear to each other, for his duplicity, Zhao Guodong and Liu Bingjun just smiled meaningfully, and they didn't pick up his words.
On the contrary, Chao Muyan on the side stood up generously and said: "It's not too early, don't gossip, since Young Master Zhao and Young Master Liu have decided to form a team, then I will be on a team with Young Master Li." Let's go to find Zhou separately, otherwise the garden should be cleared after five o'clock. ”
She cares about Zhou Xiang, and she just wants to find her as soon as possible, but she has no other ideas. However, when it fell into Ji Yuan's ears, she thought that she had changed her opinion of herself, and she was happy in her heart, so she urged Zhang Jingtong and Zhao Guodong to say: "Go, go, quickly look for it separately, and then talk when you find it." As he spoke, he bowed down and invited Chao Muyan to walk to a trail on the far left.
As soon as they left, Wan Chun and Zhang Jingtong, Zhao Guodong and Liu Bingjun each chose a small path and followed the winding mountain road to find it.
Zhang Jingtong had a little curiosity in his heart since Fang Wanchun called Ji Yuan his cousin, but he was not surprised to see Ji Yuan's expression at that time, thinking that their brother and sister had discussed it, so he didn't ask on the spot. At this time, the mountain road was silent, and there were only the two of them, so Zhang Jingtong asked Wanchun with a smile: "Why do you want to call Ji Yuan your cousin, isn't he your own brother?" ”
Wanchun made up her mind from that day to thoroughly investigate the relationship between Zhao Chunmei and her drowning case, and she had already planned to reverse her attitude towards Zhang Jingtong, but she didn't expect that today's opportunity was so good, the third brother would invite Zhang Jingtong and them to Xiangshan Park. She had been thinking about how to get close to Zhang Jingtong naturally, and not arouse suspicion, but now that she saw him speak, it opened the door for herself, so she replied: "Do you remember what I said to you at that time?" My family has always been worried about my medical school, and in order to avoid gossip about my family, I have been showing myself as an ordinary person in the college. This time, I met the three brothers by chance, and I was afraid that he would be quick to speak for a while and arouse the suspicion of my classmates, so I lied that he was my cousin in the room. ”
Zhang Jingtong seemed to have a clear idea, and vaguely remembered in her mind that when she stopped Wanchun's rickshaw on the street, she seemed to say it once. At this moment, Wan Chun explained like this, he believed it to be true, but came to explain Wan Chun and said: "Your every move of the Li family in Beiling has always attracted much attention, and one Li Jiyuan is enough to keep the newspaper reporters in the old Beijing busy, if you add the news of your fourth lady, then the Jing'an Mansion should really be pushed to the forefront." Your family doesn't want you to go to medical school, probably because they don't think that profession is very popular, and if you go, they always have to consider the ideas of the world, not just you. ”
Wanchun listened with a smile, and it was rare to meet Zhang Jingtong so considerate, and every sentence spoke to her heart. She walked quietly, and the leaves of the maple forest under her feet fell a thick layer, like a carpet laid in the corridor, soft and soft when stepped on, and occasionally there was a little rustling sound, which touched people's hearts.
Zhang Jingtong is accustomed to seeing the socializing girls on the Fengyue field, there are those who can sing and dance, and there are those who are both beautiful and artistic, but there are very few people who are peaceful and peaceful. Among them, only Wanchun is the most unique. Quiet and silent, as if the orchid blooming in the hollow valley, the night under the moonlit sky, you need to wait patiently to find the blooming fragrance in an instant.
The ancients said: Beautiful and delicious, it is really honest and not deceiving.
Zhang Jingtong smiled faintly, he has always been conceited and not vulgar, advocating the style of the Wei and Jin dynasties, and he likes to burn the piano and cook the crane to burn incense and taste tea. At this time, walking on the mountain path with Wanchun, even if there is no sound of the piano and the rhyme of tea, just for the beauty on the side, the heart is connected, and it is enough to perceive it.
The two didn't say anything for a while, just walked together.
These three forks were originally the roads leading to the Flower Pavilion, the Hippodrome and Yijiang at the foot of the mountain, but later when something happened in Yijiang, the three forks were forbidden, and the unified arrangement was made to go out from the Hippodrome, so Ji Yuan chose the last meeting place in the changing room of the Hippodrome.
Wan Chun and Zhang Jingtong unconsciously went down to the bottom of the mountain, and saw that the exit was surrounded by a fence like thistles, and the path artificially stepped on among the flowers and trees on the unique oblique side was still passable, and they knew that they had come to an end.
It's a pity that I didn't see Zhou Xiang's shadow along the way, because I didn't know what the situation of the other two teams was, Wan Chun and Zhang Jingtong got out of the trail and went straight to the racecourse. When I got there, I found that Ji Yuan, Chao Muyan, Zhao Guodong and Liu Bingjun were already standing in front of the locker room, and Zhou Xiang was still missing.
Most of the cubs who took care of the locker room knew the four princes, and they didn't ride horses but stood in front of the door, and they didn't know what was going on, so they all came out and stood behind them in a row, for fear that if they couldn't hear an order, they would provoke the four princes to start a fire.
Wanchun was deeply puzzled, and secretly thought that although Zhou Xiang's temper was short-tempered, he was a very measured person, and he shouldn't have left without saying hello. She locked her eyebrows, looked at the cub and asked, "Have you ever seen a young lady in a yellow shirt before, almost as old as me, taller than me, with a round face?" ”
She said while gesturing, you look at me, I look at you, and it took a while for a voice to say, "It seems to be going to Yijiang." ”
Went to Yijiang? Wanchun and Chao Muyan were both stunned, in such weather, there was nothing to play in Yijiang, what was she going to do there?
However, there was a clue anyway, and without thinking too much about it, Wan Chun said to Ji Yuan and them: "Whether it's true or not, let's go to Yijiang to have a look, if Zhou Xiang is really there, let's play in Yijiang for a while." ”
Ji Yuan said a lot of things to Mu Yan on the mountain, and he was in a very happy mood, as long as he could get along with Mu Yan, whatever Wan Chun said was good in his opinion, so he nodded and agreed. As soon as he agreed, others followed suit.
So the group paid the ticket money and went to Yijiang, and only then did they walk to the riverside, Mu Yan raised his hand and smiled and pointed to a yellow-clothed back on the lotus rong bridge in front of him and said, "Look, isn't that classmate Zhou?" ”
Wan Chun looked in the direction of her finger, it looked like Zhou Xiang, but her intuition looked a little shorter and thinner than Zhou Xiang. Wanchun was not convinced, so he stood and clasped his hands into a trumpet shape, and called out to the back: "Zhou Xiang, Zhou Xiang, we are looking for you." ”
The back figure slowly turned her head when she heard the sound, even if she was a few meters away, Wanchun could see that it was not Zhou Xiang, but the old enemy she was looking for - Zhao Chunmei! (To be continued.) )
