Chapter 40: The War of Tongues
Shen Yunyou wiped the corners of her lips, put down the wine glass, and glanced at Shen Yunxi who was sitting opposite defiantly, her eyes were full of complacency, as if she had really received Feng Qingchen's grace.
Shen Yunxi ignored Shen Yunyou's almost childish behavior, and only lowered his head slightly to eat. If she had seen her, she thought she would have lived ten years less. She would never do this kind of self-harm.
Feng Qingchen turned his eyes to see that Shen Yunxi was still calm, and his deep eyes crossed a trace of darkness. Immediately, he said to Shen Yunyou with a light smile: "It's so refreshing, it deserves to be the second miss." ”
"Lord Wang, you have won the prize." Shen Yunyou covered the corners of his mouth lightly and replied shyly. To say that this Shen Yunyou is also a beauty, but compared with Shen Yunxi, it is a little inferior, which is also one of the reasons why she often goes against her for what is the reason. Thinking that since he can't compare with her in appearance, he must also compare with her in momentum. It's just that now he doesn't even have momentum in front of her.
Feng Qingchen took a sip of thin wine, the corners of his lips curved, Shen Yunyou watched from the side, although she still felt that there was still a little coldness on his face, but she still felt that his words and deeds were full of fatal temptation, and her heart couldn't help but jump straight up, and even her face was a little blushing.
If you want to say that it is her mother who understands her daughter, this Mrs. Shen saw the thoughts in Shen Yunyou's heart at a glance, so she immediately helped Shen Yunyou and said: "Lord Wang, in fact, Yunyou is a very sensible child, and she will say those words in the morning, but it is also because she is worried that Yunxi will be bullied outside, so she said such things in a hurry, and please don't take it to heart, Lord Wang." ”
Shen Yunxi glanced at her, and the curvature of his lips revealed a faint sarcasm. It's a shame that she can say this, it's really thick-skinned.
Then, Feng Qingchen's calm voice came into his ears, and he said: "You have such good intentions for the princess, it should be this king who says thank you to you." And how can I blame you. ”
Shen Yunxi stopped the action of picking up vegetables, raised his head and said with a chuckle: "The prince is very right, if it weren't for Erniang and Yunyou's 'good intentions', I am afraid that I would have returned to the west long ago, how can I sit here and dine with the prince?" She paused, turned to Mrs. Shen, and said, "Erniang, Yunxi is here to thank you." ”
Feng Qingchen's sword eyebrows frowned slightly, he said that he didn't expect Shen Yunxi to answer, but she answered it so naturally, which surprised him a little.
And Mrs. Shen was stunned when she was asked, and she only thought about how to entrap Feng Qingchen, how to make Feng Qingchen leave a good impression on Shen Yunyou, so she wanted to use Shen Yunxi to build a step, but she ignored the grudge between them for a while.
Although Shen Yunxi said that Xie Lu thanked her, only she and Shen Yunyou knew what she meant after her words, lest she shake out what they had done to her before on this table. Then, he said with a flattering smile: "Hehe, no thanks, no thanks, they are all family, so why say thank you." ”
"If you don't say thank you, I think you'll think I'm not polite again, and you'll be disappointed in me again. Therefore, this thank you is very necessary. Erniang, do you say yes? Although Shen Yunxi still had a light smile on his lips, he could hear a bit of urgency in his tone.
Mrs. Shen's hand under the table trembled, Shen Yunxi's words were obviously getting closer and closer to what they said before, how could she not be terrified in her heart? This feeling of coercion made her very uncomfortable, so she was right in her previous thinking, only the mouth of a dead man is the most reliable! In this way, she was even more determined to get rid of Shen Yunxi.
Then, she finally calmed down and said as calmly as possible: "Yunxi, you are really good at laughing." Now that you are married to the prince, how can I be disappointed, it's too late for me to be proud of you. ”
"If Erniang really thinks so, Yunxi will be relieved." Shen Yunxi said with a sigh of relief, she saw Shen Mutian's nervous and panicked appearance in her eyes, and she was very satisfied to see that she was afraid, she just wanted her to experience the feeling of living on the tip of the knife, but she didn't know what to do, but her move catalyzed the idea of killing her even more.
Shen Yunxi picked up the chopsticks again and raised his head, but crashed into a deep and complicated, suspicious eye. She suddenly missed a beat in her heart, but for a moment, she turned her eyes away and said, "Lord Wang, let's eat quickly, it will be cold later." ”
Feng Qingchen didn't miss the shy crimson on her face, her expression seemed to be much brighter at this moment, she smiled softly at her, and responded: "It's better for the princess to sit next to this king and pick up vegetables for this king." In this way, you are not afraid of cold dishes. ”
Shen Yunxi gritted her teeth secretly, she really said that it was too wrong, she was making trouble for herself, and then glanced at Shen Yunyou who was sitting next to him, and she said: "No, it's a trouble to change positions, since Yunyou is sitting next to you, let her clip it for you." As he spoke, he looked at Shen Yunyou and said, "Yunyou, you don't mind, right?" ”
Hearing this, Shen Yunyou smiled and said, "Of course I don't mind." Then, he put a dish in Feng Qingchen's bowl and said, "Lord Wang, this is the chef's best dish in our house - fried fish shreds, you can try it." ”
Undoubtedly, Feng Qingchen didn't like Shen Yunxi's words, he glared at her coldly and then withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyes and said to Shen Yunyou: "Second Miss is really discerning, this shredded fish is the king's favorite dish." ”
"Really?" Shen Yunyou was shocked for a moment, and then put some more into Feng Qingchen's bowl, "Then Lord Wang, you eat more." ”
Feng Qingchen hummed softly and lowered his head to eat, while Shen Yunyou sat on the side and stared at him with a deep smile on his face.
Shen Yunxi's expression did not change at all when she saw this, but she was suspicious of Feng Qingchen's 'favorite dish', just because she clearly saw Feng Qingchen's sword eyebrows frowning slightly when he ate the first bite of shredded fish.
She couldn't help but feel a little funny in her heart, such an angry appearance was really a little different from the rumors. Come to think of it, this rumor is really a rumor, and some of them really can't be believed.
And Shen Mutian's heavy gaze on the side swirled back and forth between Shen Yunxi and Shen Yunyou, frowning, although he didn't speak, he had his own thoughts in his heart.
As for Mrs. Shen, she was very happy to see this scene, and then she glanced at Shen Yunxi, her eyes were full of pride. For her such a provocation, Shen Yunxi only hooked the corners of his lips and did not say anything else.
So, in the following meal time, Shen Yunyou tried his best to please Feng Qingchen, and Feng Qingchen also accepted it all as if he was enjoying it.
However, before the meal was finished, Long Jiu walked in from outside the hall with a very anxious expression.
