Chapter 314: Likeness
Zhao Qing did not deny it, his eyes were indifferent.
An Ruoxian's eyes were filled with fear, and she said in a trembling voice: "That's a human life!" How can you ...... How can you ......" she bit the corner of her lip, her eyes welling up with tears, "how can you take it away so easily...... Huang Ying is my friend! β
In the face of her accusation, Zhao Qing was indifferent and said coldly: "Ruoxian, you are too simple, she wants to tell An Ruolan your secret, does it matter?" That's just a subordinate, and a with a different heart. β
An Ruoxian was stunned, looked at the indifferent and cold man in front of her with tears in her eyes, and subconsciously got up and took a step back.
Although she hated An Ruolan no matter how much she hated her, she never thought of killing her, but this man regarded human life as a mustard, in his eyes, she saw coldness and ruthlessness, and she couldn't help but be afraid.
Seeing the fear on her face, Zhao Qing's eyes sank, grabbed her wrist, and said in a deep voice: "If you don't kill and die, it's you who has something to do, I just don't want to see you suffer!" β
"You let go of me!" An Ruoxian shook off his hand in a panic, took two steps back sharply while holding the aching wrist, and said in a loud voice: "Even so, you shouldn't be reckless about human life!" There are many ways to keep her secret, but you chose the most inappropriate one! β
Zhao Qing's eyes were vague and inexplicable, and he sneered: "There are many kinds? For example, cut her tongue and chopped off her hand so that she could not leak secrets? Do you think that's more appropriate than killing her? β
"I didn't say that!" An Ruoxian hurriedly defended, "I'm just...... It's just ......" but couldn't say why, so he could only stalk his neck and emphasize: "In short, killing people is not right!" β
"So you're naΓ―ve." Zhao Qing straightened up, his eyes flashed with cruelty, and Sen said coldly: "NaΓ―ve enough that even if you are betrayed, you still have to defend the person who wants to betray you and bear all the sins for her." If it were me, let alone help her to take the blame, I would never let the person who betrayed me feel better. β
Hearing this, An Ruoxian's face turned white suddenly, and she clenched her fists and shouted, "What do you know?!" I called her mother for five years, and she was so beautiful and kind in my heart, I couldn't accept her selfish side at all! β
"So you run away, you would rather bear a qiΔ than face the reality, the reality is that Meng is such a selfish person, what you have in your heart is just an illusion, and it should have been shattered a long time ago." Zhao Qing's tone was unprecedentedly cold.
"No, no, no!" An Ruoxian covered her ears and denied it loudly, looking at him angrily, "You don't know what I'm thinking at all!" Yes, I don't dare to face the reality, but I also think about myself, this time I help her to take the blame, and she will treat me better in the future! β
Zhao Qing was silent, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he said in a low voice: "I see." As soon as the words changed, he said firmly: "But it doesn't matter, I will protect you." β
"You ......" An Ruoxian looked at him in surprise, the fear in her heart was overwhelmed by emotion, and she said guiltily: "Why are you so good to me, I can't repay you at all......"
"I don't need your return." Zhao Qing shook his head lightly and said with a wry smile: "I know that you have a person in your heart, you can wait silently for him and pay a qiΔ, and I will do the same." β
"It's not worth it, it's really not worth it......" Tears slipped uncontrollably, An Ruoxian shook her head again and again, feeling distressed for his efforts.
Maybe at first she approached him with a purpose, but now, he has become an indispensable existence in her heart, and she can't help but think that it would be nice to meet him first, so that she doesn't have to worry about the male protagonist's indifference and alienation, and she doesn't have to live up to his affection.
It's a pity that it's too late, she already has someone in her heart.
She finally understood why the heroine in the TV series always couldn't bear to reject the second male, because it was really cruel to reject a person who loved her without complaint or regret.
Zhao Qing raised his hand to wipe away her tears, and said softly: "It's worth it, I think it's worth it." No matter how many secrets you have, whether you accept me or not, I just hope that you can have a worry-free life. β
An Ruoxian swallowed and held his warm big hand, close to her tear-stained cheeks, and sobbed: "I don't believe in love at first sight, you tell me the truth, why are you so good to me?" Whether it's talent, appearance, or family background, I believe you can find someone who is ten million times better than me, but why me? β
"At first, I just wanted to tease you, but as I got to know each other, I couldn't help but fall into it. Because you're so much like me. Zhao Qing smiled bitterly, and his fingers touched her tear-stained eyelashes.
"I'm the same as you, there are people who must be defeated, as well as admired and respected, and want to achieve a qiΔ for him, in order to help him achieve his goal, I will do whatever it takes, even if I am spurned by the world, I have no regrets, just like you, you want to win over your sister-in-law, you want to protect your mother-in-law, for this you continue to work hard, no matter how many grievances can be endured, so, we are the same."
He looked at the southeast sky, and there was something floating and sinking in his eyes.
An Ruoxian followed his gaze, only to see that the sky was blue, and there was nothing peculiar, she wondered: "You always look in that direction, is there anything you yearn for?" β
"That's the direction of Hengji Island." Zhao Qing raised his finger and pointed with a deep gaze.
An Ruoxian's heart jumped, and she instantly understood.
He Ling Ran said: "One day, I will also gallop on the battlefield and show my ambitions." β
Infected by his momentum, An Ruoxian said movingly: "I believe you will succeed!" β
No matter what his identity is, as long as he doesn't affect the status of the male protagonist, she is willing to do her best to help him, as if it was to repay his affection. What's more, he just wants to show his ambitions on the battlefield, which is an idea that all men have, and she believes that even if she helps him, it will not hinder the male protagonist.
Hearing this, Zhao Qing pursed his lips and smiled, looking more and more handsome, and his gentle gaze made An Ruoxian's face burn.
Holding her hands tightly, Zhao Qing assured: "Don't worry, even if you go to the Grange, I won't let you suffer." β
"Hmm." An Ruoxian smiled and snuggled into his arms, her heart full of sweetness.
It's good to be a little bit, in the moment when she is hurt by reality and the beauty in her heart is broken, it's good to let her ask for a little comfort in his arms, she just needs a little comfort, and what she loves is still the male protagonist.
Where she couldn't see, she thought that "Zhao Jing", who loved her silently, was cold in her eyes.
In the next time, Zhao Qing took An Ruoxian to go horseback riding, boating, and shopping, and the two put aside a qiΔ, like a couple in love, and spent a happy and sweet day together.
At sunset, the distant mountains were reflected in the glow, and An Ruoxian said goodbye to Zhao Qing in Henglai Restaurant.
In the evening breeze, he raised his hand to pin the hair hanging from her ear, and said softly: "Don't leave the house these days, save yourself from annoying your grandmother, and when you get to the grange, I will often go to see you, and we will see you again." β
An Ruoxian blushed slightly and nodded softly, took out a white porcelain vial from her sleeve, and said, "You take this." β
"This is ......" Zhao Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, and it was difficult to hide the surprise in his eyes.
"This is the holy water of the goddess, you should have heard of it." An Ruoxian said worriedly: "Don't ask me why I have such a thing, just keep it, you should know how to use it." β
Zhao Qing paused, nodded solemnly, and carefully put away the bottle.
Seeing that he didn't ask more, An Ruoxian breathed a sigh of relief, and was secretly moved by his thoughtfulness and understanding.
The two parted with each other, until the sky was black and gray, and An Ruoxian reluctantly left with the maid. Zhao Qing looked at her back, pinching the porcelain bottle in his arms and groaning slightly.
When she returned to the Hou Mansion, it was already time to hold the lamp, An Ruoxian first went to greet the old lady, and then went back to her own room.
Meng Shi was not there, Xinyue Yuan seemed very deserted, An Ruoxian didn't care, she fell asleep early with sweet memories.
Just as An Ruoxian was asleep, in the main room of Yirong Garden, Mama Song was reporting her whereabouts to the old lady today.
After learning that Huang Ying secretly sent a message to An Ruolan, the old lady set her eyes on An Ruoxian, and with the shrewdness of the old lady, it was not difficult to guess what Huang Ying wanted to tell An Ruolan - not about Meng, but about An Ruoxian.
The old lady knew exactly how many goods were in Meng's stomach, and the Meng family had been excluded early on, so it could only be that An Ruoxian had an ulterior secret. Just as An Ruoxian asked for instructions to leave the house, the old lady agreed to her, and then secretly sent someone to follow her.
It's just that the old lady's purpose has not been fully achieved.
"The slave maid invited someone to follow Miss Ten, and it was fine at first, but when I arrived at Henglai Restaurant, the person invited by the slave and maid was discovered, except for a child disguised as a beggar to report the news, the rest did not come back, presumably ......"
Speaking of this, Mama Song broke out in a cold sweat, only to feel that the person who did it was ruthless, and the people she invited didn't need to guess to know what the fate was.
The old lady frowned and asked, "What can be found?" β
Mama Song shook her head in fear, "I only know that Miss Ten has met with a noble son, and the rest is gone, the little beggar is frightened and doesn't dare to follow any further." β
Hearing this, the old lady's face was solemn, and after a while, she sighed: "Give that child some more silver." β
Mama Song answered in a low voice.
The old lady said: "It seems that she can't continue to stay in Shengjing, so I'll go to pass the word tomorrow, let Sister Xian pack up, and leave for the Grange the day after tomorrow." β
Rubbing his eyebrows, he said impatiently, "There is also the fifth child, you also go to urge, let him move faster, procrastinating, Brother Yan doesn't know when he will be able to marry his daughter-in-law." β
Mama Song responded one by one, and asked cautiously: "Old lady, the fifth lady is not here, so this is the family matter, I'm afraid it's not okay?" In the future, their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will not be good. β
"Don't worry, this family affair is not so easy to decide." The old lady sighed and said solemnly: "As for the Meng family, I will hang her first, if after taking her back, she still does not remember the lesson and deliberately embarrasses my granddaughter-in-law, then don't blame me for not giving her a chance to come back next time." β
Mama Song should be. R1152
