Ren Yaochi saw the nervous looks of several maids, and shook his head: "I'm not angry. ”

She didn't get angry because Xiao Jingxi said a few words to other women, but Yan Ningshuang's behavior made her feel a little unhappy.

Yan Ningshuang came to Yanbei Wangfu in the same car as Zhao Yingqiu, and the princess had already sent someone to send them to the car, but now Zhao Yingqiu and the carriage have left, but Yan Ningshuang has not left yet, and it can be regarded as painstaking.

Seeing that Ren Yaoqi's face was quite gentle, they were also slightly relieved. Seeing that the wedding date is not far away, no one wants anything to happen.

The carriage slowly drove out of the Yanbei Palace, and Ren Yaochi did not look outside the carriage.

However, Ren Yaoqi didn't look outside, but a few maids were not at ease. Leshan, who was sitting by the car window, secretly opened the curtain of the car from time to time and took a look outside, wanting to see if the second son of the Xiao family would throw off Yan Ningshuang and the woman would catch up.

Ren Yaoqi noticed Leshan's movements, didn't say anything, and let her go.

After the carriage came out of the Yanbei Palace, it went in the direction of the Aquarius Hutong, where the gentlemen in the academy lived in addition to some literati and ink writers. It is relatively quiet during the day, not as noisy as other residential alleys, and the big streets outside the alley are basically some pen and ink calligraphy and painting shops, antique seal shops and the like, so it is far less lively and prosperous than Zhengyang Street.

When their carriage turned into the street in front of the treasure bottle alley, Leshan still refused to give up and wanted to look back, Ren Yaoqi sighed and was about to speak, but when he raised his eyes, he saw a person on the opposite street walking out of a seal shop, and at a glance, the tea bowl and bowl lid in Ren Yaoqi's hand suddenly knocked out a crisp sound.

Although the sound was not loud, because the carriage was very quiet, Leshan was so frightened that he hurriedly lowered the curtain of the carriage. She thought that Ren Yaoqi was angry, so she hurriedly admitted her mistake and lowered her head to admit her mistake: "The slave knows her mistake." ”

Ren Yaoqi didn't seem to hear Leshan's words, and she blinked slowly. Then suddenly shouted "stop".

The mother-in-law who was driving the car outside heard the answer and began to slow down, and several maids saw that Ren Yaoqi moved to the window of the car and opened the curtain of the car, and at this time the carriage was already a little far away from the seal shop just now.

Ren Yaochi looked through the car window, and only had time to see a man in a green shirt walking in the opposite direction from her with leisurely steps.

The man was slender, and because he turned his back to them, he couldn't see his appearance or age, and although he was dressed as a scholar, he looked a little lazy, as if everything in the world was not in sight and not in his heart. He was tilting his head slightly at this time to talk to his little servant, even if he couldn't see the front. Ren Yaochi could also guess that he must be slightly holding his eyes at this moment, with a casual smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he would never wake up, you don't know if he is just a void in his sight.

Ren Yaochi looked at the man's back in a bit of a daze, forgetting how to react for a while, until the man's figure turned into another street and disappeared.

"Miss? What's wrong with you? Leshan asked cautiously, she had the courage to sneak a peek out, but she didn't see anything. There are only a few pedestrians on this street, and they are all strangers they don't know.

Ren Yaochi gradually came back to her senses, and then realized that she was a little out of shape, and she lowered the curtain. He pursed his lips and said softly: "It's okay, I recognized the wrong person." ”

"So we'll go back now?" Leshan asked.

Ren Yaochi was silent and did not speak.

Le Shui observed his words: "Maybe Miss didn't recognize the wrong person just now, why don't you turn around and go back?" ”

Ren Yaochi sighed, looked at a few maids and smiled: "Go back." I confessed my mistake. ”

Even if you recognize it, what can you do?

She remembered that the man was a teacher and a friend, but that man would only make her a stranger. Even if they stood together, they were speechless.

The maids didn't say anything more. Apple instructed the woman who was driving the car to keep going.

Just as the carriage was about to move, there was a knock on the wall.

Ren Yaoqi, who had just calmed down, couldn't help but be stunned, and turned her head to look in the direction of the car window, but her right hand was clenched unconsciously, and she was a little nervous.

Leshan looked at Ren Yaoqi and asked out loud: "Who?" ”

The person outside seemed to pause, and then a low, dark, and pleasant voice sounded outside: "I." ”

Ren Yaochi exhaled slowly, his hand was released, and his palm was a little sweaty. How could she have forgotten that it was only someone who liked to knock on the wall of her carriage.

Ren Yaoqi lifted the curtain of the car, looked at Xiao Jingxi who was standing outside the car window, and said softly: "Why are you here?" ”

Xiao Jingxi came on horseback alone, standing next to the carriage, still holding the reins in his hand. He was still wearing the same clothes as when he stood with Yan Ningshuang before, and his deep eyes looked at Ren Yaoqi and didn't speak for a while.

Ren Yaoqi saw that he didn't say anything, and was about to put down the curtain, Xiao Jingxi said in a low voice: "I have something to say to you, I'll go to the Dongsheng teahouse in front to wait for you." Without waiting for Ren Yaoqi to refuse, he turned around and got on his horse and left first.

Ren Yaochi held his chin and blinked, thought about it, and didn't move for a long time.

She didn't speak, no one dared to move, and the carriage was still parked on the side of the road.

"Fork out of the alley in front of you and go to the back door of Dongsheng Teahouse." After a while, Ren Yaoqi commanded in a low voice.

The mother-in-law who was driving the carriage got the order and drove the carriage up again.

Leshan had a lively temperament, and couldn't help but ask boldly: "Miss, what were you thinking just now?" Provoked a warning glare from Leshui.

Ren Yaoqi glanced at Leshan, smiled, and didn't speak.

What she just thought about was that although Xiao Ergongzi didn't like to ride a horse, he looked pretty good at seeing him get on the horse, it was quite like that, and she didn't know how long Lu Dao had been practicing secretly before he fell off the horse. Of course, Ren Yaochi would not say this kind of thing to his maid.

Xiao Jingxi may have arranged it before coming to her, and when Ren Yaoqi's carriage drove into the back door of Dongsheng Teahouse, Tonghe had already stood there waiting for her for a while.

Tonghe led Ren Yaoqi to the box on the second floor, and Xiao Jingxi was already waiting inside.

The maid's entourage was all guarding outside, and Ren Yaoqi looked at Xiao Jingxi who was standing in front of him and said half-truthfully: "Young Master Xiao, this seems unreasonable?" Although she had met Xiao Jingxi privately before, it was because there was something to discuss with him, and Ren Yaoqi at that time wanted to get out of the predicament and protect her family, and there was spare time to pay attention to her reputation.

"You and I have a marriage contract, which is different from ordinary people." Xiao Jingxi thought of Ren Yaochi seeing him and Yan Ningshuang standing together and talking before, he didn't know if Ren Yaochi said this on purpose, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but he still pretended to be calm and confident.

The folk customs in Yanbei are more open than those in the south, and they are a lot more tolerant of men and women who have marriage contracts. Especially on days like the Shangsi Festival, the Flower Dynasty Festival, and the Lantern Festival, they will be allowed to travel together.

Ren Yaoqi glanced at him with a smile, and did not say anything to refute him.

"I just wanted to go back to see you......" Xiao Jingxi looked at Ren Yaoqi, and suddenly muttered in a low voice, but he showed a little aggrieved and annoyed.

Ren Yaoqi suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, but the unhappiness that she tried her best to ignore in her heart before dissipated a lot.

Xiao Jingxi took a step forward and stood closer to Ren Yaoqi.

Ren Yaochi was about to retreat, but Xiao Jingxi reached out and hugged her first.

Ren Yaoqi's face turned red, and he struggled for a while and was afraid that the people outside would hear the movement, so he could only whisper: "Let go of me!" ”

"Don't let go of ......" Xiao Jingxi's low voice with a smile sounded softly in Ren Yaoqi's ears, making her heart tremble, and her hands and feet suddenly became a little weak.

"I'm just anxious to see you, I didn't avoid her for a while, don't be angry with me for an irrelevant person, okay?" Xiao Jingxi whispered in Ren Yaoqi's ear.

The crisp and good-smelling smell on Xiao Jingxi's body surrounded Ren Yaochi pervasively, her heart beat as if it was about to burst out of her chest, and even her brain was full of "bang" echoes, Ren Yaochi couldn't help but feel ashamed and annoyed.

She tried to calm herself down, and was about to use all her strength to push him away so that she could breathe smoothly, but she saw that Xiao Jingxi's ears holding her were very suspiciously pink, she paused, and then found that Xiao Jingxi's heartbeat was also very fast, even compared to her, although his face was still so calm.

Ren Yaochi wanted to laugh again, she sighed, and then said with a cold face: "Xiao Jingxi, if you don't let go, I'll be angry." ”

This is the first time she has even called Xiao Jingxi by name and surname, Xiao Jingxi was stunned, and then obediently let go of her, but refused to take her eyes away.

Ren Yaoqi did not avoid Xiao Jingxi's gaze this time, but looked at him seriously for a while, until she decided that Xiao Ergongzi's calm appearance was indeed nervous, and she said seriously: "I'm not angry with you." ”

Xiao Jingxi looked at her and didn't speak.

Ren Yaochi sighed, and then said: "Because I know that with your temperament, if you are unwilling, even if Yan Ningshuang uses drastic means, she will not be able to do so." ”

Yan Ningshuang didn't know what to do, but Ren Yaoqi knew very well that if Xiao Jingxi really didn't want to marry Yan Ningshuang, and Yan Ningshuang was still scheming against him, Xiao Jingxi didn't mind letting her disappear in this world.

Xiao Jingxi's aggrieved, scoundrel or domineering appearance just now is not the real him.

Even though he would still be nervous in front of her, he would still blush. (To be continued......)
