Chapter 196: Awkward
"I'm ......" Anina looked at him, not knowing how to answer for a moment, but his look made her feel extremely uncomfortable, "You want to ...... Go...... Where to? ”
"Long-awaited in the country."
Hearing these three words, Anina was silent for a moment and lowered her eyes.
"Your hometown is in the country?"
Yun Cheng hesitated for a moment and nodded, "I know it's rash, but I'm sorry, there are some things I have to go back." ”
They were silent for a while, looking at each other, but Anina finally smiled, "Isn't it just going back, I'll take you out." ”
Hearing Anina's words, Yun Cheng's frowning brow quietly soothed, and he smiled lightly, "Thank you." ”
Anina looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and finally said in a more relaxed tone, "But you also have to promise me one thing." ”
"What?"
Anina paused slightly, smiled lightly, and said with a bit of expectation in her words, "You promised me before, this will be our annual event in half a month, and you said that you would come to cheer me on." ”
I thought he would hesitate, or he was ready to be rejected, but when the man in front of him heard this, he curled his lips and chuckled, nodded and said, "Since I promised you, I will definitely abide by it, don't worry, I will also go to my friend." ”
Anina, who originally heard that he would go, was a little happy, but when she heard the next sentence from him, the smile on her face stiffened slightly.
Then he pulled the corners of his mouth and laughed softly.
Turning his gaze, he got up and said, "Well, you're hungry, I'll go and make you something to eat." ”
With that, he turned and left the room.
So, for him, can they really only be friends with each other?
……
At dinner time, Mu Mansion was relatively quiet as usual.
If you really want to say that there is something different, it is probably between Jiang Shennan and Shen Shuyi.
As usual, there are usually three people who eat together.
On this day, Jiang Shennan came back from outside, smelled the fragrance, ran over, looked at the food in front of the table, reached out to take a bite, and said with a smile, "So much delicious." ”
Seeing this, Mu Xi didn't say anything, but walked over and smelled some fragrance on him.
I couldn't bear to frown, "You went to the Drunken Immortal Building again?" ”
Jiang Shennan glanced at him, but directly sat in his position, used chopsticks, and then looked at him with a smile, and quipped, "Yes, I heard, there will be a new girl in the Drunken Immortal Building tomorrow, do you want to go and see it together?" ”
Mu Xi looked away, "I'm not interested." ”
"It's boring." Jiang Shennan smacked his tongue, shook his head, and complained.
Mu Xi glanced at him, "I said, you have a good relationship with Shuyi recently, what are you doing in the Drunken Immortal Tower?" ”
Hearing this, Jiang Shennan looked up at him and hurriedly said, "What can I have to do with her, and it's not that kind of relationship, why can't I go to the Drunken Immortal Tower." ”
"I saw you kissing her a few days ago, don't mess with me, Uncle Shen treats me well, Shuyi is also a good girl, if you don't like it, don't harm her, she is not the kind of girl in the Drunken Immortal Building, I can introduce a few to her another day."
Listening to Mu Xi's words, Jiang Shennan was a little anxious, as if something had been exposed, "I don't like it and it won't be harmful, it's her who likes me to pester me, I wish she was away from me, you can quickly introduce a few to her." ”
As he spoke, he took a few bites of food and ate it.
As soon as Mu Xi said that, Jiang Shennan felt a little uncomfortable feeling depressed in his heart, and he only kissed Shen Shuyi once, and he was also seen.
That time it was Shen Shuyi who secretly kissed him when he drank too much and slept, and even she didn't know about it, and now that he thinks about it, he feels like he is a little brain-pumping, and he would actually make that kind of move.
Because...... He just looked at her and felt as if his heart was about to beat fast.
He didn't know what was wrong with him, and fled the scene after stealing his kiss.
After taking a bite of the dish, thinking of that scene, Jiang Shennan felt even more hot in his heart, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Okay, hurry up and call Shuyi to dinner." Mu Xi chuckled and urged.
Jiang Shennan was slightly reluctant, and finally put down his chopsticks and got up to call Shen Shuyi.
After a while, the two came over, but what was different was that the two of them walked side by side before, but this time Mu Xi noticed that Jiang Shennan was walking very fast in front of him, and he seemed reluctant to be parallel to her.
And Shen Shuyi also seemed to be aware of it, and she was silent when she followed behind.
Mu Xi always felt that something was wrong with them when he saw the two.
Jiang Shennan still looked like a hanger, and hurriedly sat down in his position again and moved his chopsticks, "Starve to death, eat quickly!" ”
As he spoke, he took the lead in eating the vegetables.
Shen Shuyi sat next to him, glanced at him, but didn't say anything, lowered her eyes and picked up chopsticks and began to eat in small bites.
Compared with Shen Shuyi's silence, Jiang Shennan chattered even more, and while eating and drinking wine, he proposed to Mu Xi, "Eh, Axi, do you want to go to the Drunken Immortal Building another day to have a look, those girls will come new tomorrow, and they will still be fresh." ”
Mu Xi glanced at him and looked away, "You go by yourself." ”
Jiang Shennan smiled, did not speak, and continued to eat.
The faint fragrance of the man next to her came to her nose, Shen Shuyi unconsciously grabbed the chopsticks in her hand, how could she not know that the smell on his body was the fragrance of the woman in the Qinglou.
The previous relationship made her think that there was still a possibility between them, but who knew that he was still the same as before.
In his eyes, he is always inferior to those women in the Qinglou.
also blames himself, the glimpse when he was young made him unforgettable.
lowered his eyes and ate sullenly.
But the man's faint fragrance that did not belong to him always disturbed her mood, and at the end of eating, she felt even more tasteless.
Before she could eat a few bites, Shen Shuyi put down the dishes and chopsticks, looked at Mu Xi, and chuckled, "I'm done with it, you eat slowly." ”
As he spoke, he didn't even give Jiang Shennan a look, and got up to leave the table.
Mu Xi looked up and looked at the barely touched food in her bowl, "Don't eat it?" ”
Shen Shuyi nodded, then turned around and walked away.
Jiang Shennan stopped the movements in his hand, looked at her dishes and chopsticks conditionally with sideways eyes, was slightly silent, and the previous conversation and laughter on his face also converged.
After Shen Shuyi left, Mu Xi looked at him and kicked him with his leg under the table.
Jiang Shennan came back to his senses slightly, glanced at each other, Mu Xi frowned, "What do you think." ”
Then he motioned with his eyes to find Shen Shuyi.
Jiang Shennan changed the corners of his mouth with his usual hippie smile again, picking up the rice, looking indifferent, "Hey, don't care about her, she's like this, we eat our own." ”
As he spoke, he put another piece of meat in Mu Xi's eyes on the other side, and laughed dryly, "Don't look at me, eat meat." ”
Hearing his words, he glanced at the meat in the bowl, and Mu Xi also knew that he didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, so you didn't talk about it.
As if thinking of something, he said, "You know that Mu Yang came to the Queen Mother's birthday banquet." ”
"You know, what's wrong?" Jiang Shennan nodded and looked at him.
"Listening to the eighth prince, he recognized Ruonan."
Hearing this, Jiang Shennan was slightly stunned, "Impossible, if he recognizes it, he can go back so quickly?" ”
Mu Xi chuckled, looked at him and said, "So, he will come to Cangming Country again." ”
Although he was smiling, his deep black eyes were extremely cold, and a cold glow flashed.
Facing his gaze, Jiang Shennan was slightly silent, "Do you have an idea?" ”
Mu Xi smiled and told him some of his plans.
After listening, Jiang Shennan's whole face turned slightly pale, and there was a bit of disbelief in his eyes, "Are you crazy?" Are you trying to kill her? ”
"I'm sober." Mu Xi's face sank slightly.
What else did Jiang Shennan want to say, listening to Mu Xi's words, he finally compromised.
……
The news that the eighth prince would marry next month spread throughout the Cangming Kingdom.
Yun Ruonan didn't care too much, she was just a disguise, and it wouldn't be her who would marry him at that time.
The days passed slowly, Yun Ruonan still lived in Qingyi Palace, and lived under the same roof with Jun Xu, sometimes it was too boring, Jun Xu would also ask Mu Xi and them to come over.
That day, Jun Xu was greedy, and he especially wanted to eat the hometown specialties that Yun Ruonan had made before.
After a wave of rainbow farts, Yun Ruonan also agreed.
Came to the kitchen and started making sweets for him.
The ingredients are all available, and Yun Ruonan is not particularly troublesome to make.
After doing this for a while, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a person standing on the side, Yun Ruonan looked at the door, surprised and more happy, and said with a smile, "Eh? How did you get here? ”
Seeing the woman's bright smile, Mu Xi was slightly in a trance and said with a smile, "I heard that the Eighth Prince said that you were in the kitchen, so I came over to take a look." ”
Yun Ruonan listened and smiled, "Yes, the eighth prince wants to eat sweets, and the peach blossom soup he made for him before is greedy." ”
Mu Xi laughed a few times and walked over, watching her busy in the kitchen.
He glanced at the prepared glutinous rice and asked, "Is this glutinous rice ready?" ”
Yun Ruonan glanced back and nodded, "It's soaked, and it will be put into the pot later." ”
Hearing this, Mu Xi looked at the glutinous rice bowl and was slightly distracted, as if he was thinking about something.
glanced at Yun Ruonan, who was busy, and was also facing away from him at this time, and glanced over to the glutinous rice bowl on the side.
The right hand in the sleeve was raised slightly, and finally hesitated for a while, but he did not move.
"That's right, Ah Xi......" Yun Ruonan suddenly turned around, and just wanted to ask him if Shen Shuyi had come over, but found that Mu Xi's expression was slightly wrong.
Mu Xi came back to his senses by such a sound and took his hand back suddenly.
"What are you doing?" Yun Ruonan looked at him.
Mu Xi looked at the glutinous rice bowl, smiled, and explained, "Seeing this glutinous rice, I am also a little greedy for your peach blossom soup." ”
There is no doubt that there is him, Yun Ruonan laughed dryly, scratched his head, and looked slightly embarrassed, "That, I didn't know you would come today, so I prepared a copy of the Eighth Prince." ”
