Chapter 277: A Man's Heart

When Shen Qian hurried to the pavilion in the back garden, he saw the dark-skinned young man holding pastries in both hands, and his mouth was stuffed like he had never eaten in eight lifetimes. The snacks on the table were swept away, and there was not even any scum left......

I have never seen such an unpolite person in my life for more than 20 years, and Shen Qian's expressionless face showed a rare smile on his face.

Shen Qian walked forward quickly, only to see that the swarthy young man and the white-clothed young man sitting next to him all turned their heads to look back, "These are your friends from Cangzhou, right?" Under Shen Qian, polite. ”

"Poof!"

The swarthy young man, who suddenly saw that the person was coming and didn't have time to react, covered the corners of his mouth and spewed out snowflake-like pastry crumbs, obviously choking.

Seeing this, Shen Qian's eyebrows twitched twice, but he didn't make a disgusted expression, on the contrary, his eyes became softer and softer, "If this boy likes this kind of pastry, I can order someone to send some more later." ”

"No, no, no ......," someone who was choked up waved his hand on the table, and suddenly took out a book wrapped in silk cloth from his baggage as if he remembered something, "This is the wind...... Uh, the Imperial Princess, we asked us to send it to you. ”

Shen Qian took it and knew that it was a poster inside, he called someone to order things to be sent back to the study, then walked to the stone table and sat down, and personally poured tea for the two of them.

"Cough, that~" The swarthy young man coughed a little embarrassedly, smiled and touched the back of his head, "In the Xia Lu Dynasty, the name next to me is Shumo, and we are all diners in the Imperial Prince's Mansion." ”

"Well......" Shen Qian took a sip of tea, and then replied lightly, "The two of you have worked the way from afar, and I have something to delay, please forgive me for the inconsiderate hospitality." ”

However, just as Shen Qian's words fell, a figure wearing a pink hundred butterflies walked over through the path among the flowers, "Cousin, it turns out that you are here!" ”

Ma Mengsu, who was also dressed up on weekdays, appeared in front of everyone with the support of the maid, but when she saw the faces of the two people beside Shen Qian, she was immediately shocked and stunned in place, "Why are you ......" As she spoke, her eyes involuntarily glanced at the white-clothed young man who was as beautiful as a fairy but was indifferent, and felt a little sad in her heart.

Of course, it was not only Ma Mengsu who recognized each other at a glance, Chaolu over there saw that the girl with a gorgeous skirt and a delicate posture was Miss Jiao who had not seen her for a few days, so she greeted her generously, "Miss Ma, what a coincidence~"

"You know?" Shen Qian put down the teacup and looked at Ma Mengsu, who was stunned on the other side.

"Ah, hmm~ This Lu Gongzi and Shumo Gongzi saved the young lady from the people of Storm Village......" Seeing that Ma Mengsu stood stunned and speechless, Li'er hurriedly answered.

Shen Qian was silent for a few seconds, his eyes becoming cold, "Oh? I didn't even know that such a big thing had happened," he paused, and then called a subordinate, "Call Qu Jing and Jiang Shan over." ”

"No, no!"

Ma Mengsu, who had hesitated for a long time, finally couldn't hold her breath and spoke, she looked at Shen Qian with tears in her eyes, her eyes were cute, "Mengsu didn't want her cousin to worry, so she didn't let Qu Jing and Jiang Shan talk about it." In fact, she was very satisfied with Shen Qian in all aspects after seeing her, thinking that she would marry him in the future anyway, in order to leave a good impression on Shen Qian, she didn't want the other party to know that she had been involved with those messy people in Tempest Village.

And looking at Ma Mengsu's appearance of pear blossoms with rain, Shen Qian didn't bother to ask, and simply withdrew his gaze to look at Chaolu and Shumo again, "In that case, then Gongzi Lu and Shumo Gongzi are my great benefactors of Jinling Villa, and later I will order someone to prepare a wine banquet for the two of them." ”

Hearing Shen Qian's words, he probably meant to set up a banquet to stay overnight, Chaolu was very happy in her heart, it seemed that she was not busy in vain, and now she finally got the opportunity to stay in Jinling Villa for a few days to find out the matter.

Soon Chaolu and Shumo were led by the maidservant to the back compartment to rest for a while, and then went to the front hall when it was time for dinner.

Although Shen Qian looked a little indifferent and didn't talk much, he felt very similar to Yu Fengxian's personality, right...... Even the strange cousin is very similar!

Of course, the most important point is that fortunately, the young owner is quite polite, and Chaolu's original nervous mood is a little relaxed.

After sending away the maidservant, Chaolu lay down on the cushion of the bed relaxedly, and the fatigue of running around for days suddenly came to her heart, but when she remembered the moment when Shumo patted her back just now, she couldn't tell what it was like, and the original strong sleepiness dissipated unconsciously.

Think about it carefully, in fact, putting aside the Bihai Shenyuan's file, it's really not too bad to treat yourself?

Hey, why do you want to do so much? It's destined to be impossible, and she's long lost hope, that guy follows if he loves, and he can do whatever he loves, Hengzhi is just a mortal who always has a day of birth, old age, sickness and death, and it's really a bit whimsical to want to climb up to Shumo, who is suspected of being half a fairy......

Don't think about it, go to sleep, sleep!

……

The backyard of Jinling Villa.

When Shen Qian walked to the door of the study with a cold face, Shen Tiansu had been sitting in the room and waiting for a long time, and he didn't even raise his head when he saw his son enter the door, but just said lightly: "Sit down." ”

Shen Qian replied casually yes and closed the door and walked into the room, a strange and solemn atmosphere surrounded the father and son.

"Your affair with Mengsu is scheduled to be held next month." Shen Tiansu looked at his son sitting opposite with a grim gaze, and the words he said were directly final without even the slightest tone of discussion.

“…… Got it. Shen Qianmu sat expressionlessly, and from his face, he couldn't see whether he was willing or unwilling to do this family business.

But for Shen Tiansu, who is accustomed to his son's obedience, the Ma family's financial resources are strong enough to support the development of Jinling Villa in the martial arts in the future, and this qiē is also a matter of course.

Shen Qian sat down for a moment and got up, his overly calm expression could be described as a dead silence, "If there is nothing else, my son will retire first." ”

After speaking, he slowly turned around and walked out of the door, but in the few seconds that Shen Tiansu didn't notice, the corners of Shen Qian's mouth rose imperceptibly, and a cold smile bloomed......

……

After the feast of this day, Chaolu and Shumo stayed in the guest room of Jinling Villa for another night.

When he slept until the third watch, Chaolu sneaked up from the bed again, took out the dark clothes he was wearing in his baggage, changed them, and tiptoed open the door and walked out.

How did she know that as soon as she stepped out of the door with her front foot, she saw a white shadow standing straight next to the pillar in the corridor, which frightened her into a roar in her head, and she tripped directly over the threshold and fell backwards - at the critical moment, the white shadow flickered, and then a cold palm grabbed her wrist and lifted it forward, so that she stabilized her center of gravity and did not fall on her back.

"You...... How did you end up here?! Her eyes widened in surprise as she saw that the person standing in front of her was Shumo, who somehow didn't sleep in the middle of the night.

After listening to Chaolu's question, Shumo stood in the shadows under the eaves without changing his expression, and did not answer for a long time.

Chaolu, who was still a little apprehensive by the fright just now, touched the back of his head and raised his head, from this angle, the delicate profile of his face seemed to be coated with a soft and elegant glow by the moonlight, and the whole picture was very beautiful, the only thing missing was that he never smiled......

Chaolu lost his mind for a moment, and suddenly remembered that he had something to do when he went out this time, and hurriedly patted his forehead to wake himself up, "Cough, it's been the middle of the night, why don't you sleep?" ”

“…… I didn't need sleep in the first place. Shu Mo turned his head slightly, with a hint of scrutiny in his eyes, compared to the past when he couldn't see love at all, his expression at the moment was much more plain and vivid.

This irrefutable words made Chaolu not know how to answer for a while, of course she knew that Shumo was not an ordinary person, and she didn't seem to have seen him sleep much in her impression, but it was the first time to explain it so bluntly.

In fact, she really wants to complain, she doesn't need to sleep, and she doesn't need to stand at the door of someone's room without saying a word, and it's scary, right? But when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed back, and finally temporarily changed his lines and said: "Don't mix our mortal affairs, go back to your room to rest without sleeping." ”

"You're going to be a thief?" Shu Mo's brows furrowed slightly, and his expression was stern and serious.

Hey, this guy really can't talk as always...... Although there is nothing wrong with saying this, she originally came to Jinling Villa to find out the news, and by the way, to see if she could find the cloth fragments related to the matter to restore the truth of the year, but even if she is a thief, she is a chivalrous thief, okay?

Chaolu smiled a little embarrassedly, raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from the corner of his forehead, "You are a fairy-like character, and you can't tell you~ All in all, I have to hurry up and complete the task now, otherwise it will be dawn in a while~" After speaking, he reached out to push the moving iceberg back to the house, saying that if he didn't settle this guy well, he wouldn't be at ease~" ...... I'll go with you. ”

Chaolu couldn't push it for a long time after pushing hard, but Shu Mo took a step forward and forced her into a corner, "I really don't need to, I'm not going to fight, what kind of helper do you bring!" "Besides, until now, I don't know if this guy has a force value, and I never see him make a move when I usually meet a cannon fodder monster, so I will suddenly volunteer to help again, who knows if it will be useful to bring it with me......

However, this will be a stubborn attitude in front of her, and her eyes, which are always faint on weekdays, are as bright as stars at this moment, and she can't even raise her head when she sees that her heart is a little weak.

What's wrong with this iceberg little dragon man recently, I always feel that something is wrong, but I can't say it specifically...... It is said that a woman's heart is a needle under the sea, but I didn't expect this man's mind to be difficult to speculate!
