Chapter Ninety-Seven: "Midnight Appointment"

Before Qianyi could answer, he heard the door of the room being pushed open, Hua Rujiang walked in with a letter in his hand, Xiao Xinyi looked at his rare serious face and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Falling Moon Villa wants to marry the Hua family." Hua Rujiang replied expressionlessly.

"Is it Miss Chu?" Xiao Xinyi's heart jumped and he hurriedly asked.

"Yes, Xu was married to my cousin Hua Ruhai." Hua Rujiang replied expressionlessly.

Hualing is like a sea, when Chu Zhaohua was devoted to Chu Zhaohua, he almost died under Chu Zhaohua's red tassel gun, and Chu Zhaohua almost died in the hands of the killer 'Night Ghost Gate' invited by the Hua family, the grievances of the two families were well known in the martial arts at that time, and no one could have imagined that the two families who were as powerful as fire and water could actually marry, and they were two enemies of life and death.

Xiao Xinyi looked at Hua Rujiang's dejected face and asked, "Is the situation true?" ”

Hua Rujiang raised the letter in his hand and replied: "The letter written by Zhuge Yin himself. ”

Xiao Xinyi took the letter from his hand and read it carefully, and sure enough, it was true, just two days later.

At the end of the letter, in the name of Chu Zhaohua, Xiao Xinyi was invited to the village as a guest and the action was postponed.

Xiao Xinyi took the letter and read it for a long time without speaking. Thinking of the first time she saw Chu Zhaohua, she looked at Hua Rujiang with affectionate and forbearant eyes.

And now looking at Hua Rujiang's expression, he obviously cares about Chu Zhaohua in his heart.

Xiao Xinyi suddenly understood Zhuge Qinghong's intention to let her go tonight, and after folding the letter and putting it in his sleeve pocket, Xiao Xinyi looked up at Hua Rujiang, who was stunned, and said, "I'm going to go to Luoyue Mountain Villa tonight, and I also ask Mr. Qian to send a few more brothers to protect each other in the dark." ”

Although Qianyi didn't understand Xiao Xinyi's intentions, he also replied respectfully: "Please rest assured, the subordinates will definitely arrange for the first-class masters in the hall to protect the deputy hall master in secret." ”

"I'm tired of Mr. Qian." After Xiao Xinyi finished speaking, he walked to the cabinet and took out the 'Jiuxiao' tuning.

Hua Rujiang didn't seem to hear anything, and he sat in Xiao Xinyi's room without moving, Xiao Xinyi looked back when he walked out of the room with 'Jiuxiao', and saw that he was still sitting at the table and was distracted, so he sighed lightly and strode away.

Xiao Xinyi walked all the way to the Falling Moon Villa with the piano in her arms, Hu Guyue, Qin Youyou and Leng Moyan had been secretly following behind her, and the road was peaceful, and when they arrived at the Falling Moon Villa, it was already full of stars, and the moon was in the sky.

There were already disciples guarding the door of the Falling Moon Villa, and after Xiao Xinyi revealed his identity, he led Xiao Xinyi into the Falling Moon Villa, although the night was dark, the lights in the Falling Moon Villa were bright, and the scenery of the villa was in full view.

The disciple who led the way stopped in front of the largest courtyard and said, "This is the courtyard of the eldest lady, the eldest lady usually doesn't let us disciples get close to here, please go in by yourself." ”

Xiao Xinyi nodded to the man and saluted, "Thank you, it's hard work." ”

After the disciple left, Xiao Xinyi looked up and saw the three big characters 'Mingyue Pavilion' written on the courtyard, presumably Chu An loved this daughter very much, and gave her the largest courtyard and the most beautiful name in the villa, but for some reason she was willing to marry her daughter to someone she didn't like.

Xiao Xinyi stood at the gate of the courtyard for a moment before walking in, Mingyue Pavilion is different from the bright lights outside, only a few lights, the courtyard is surrounded by green trees and rockeries, twisting and turning like a labyrinth, Xiao Xinyi bypassed a few rockeries and looked through the hazy moonlight, only to see a white and a purple figure in the rockery pavilion in the distance, and before he walked to the front, he heard Chu Zhaohua's voice coming out: "Are you really not going to tell her?" ”

"Not intended." Zhuge Qinghong's voice came next. Although she only heard them say these two sentences, Xiao Xinyi had a feeling that what they were talking about must be herself, and she also knew that it was a very rude thing to eavesdrop on others, but she still stood still according to her temperament.

"Why do you torture yourself so much, maybe she will accept you after you say it." There was obvious distress in Chu Zhaohua's voice.

"I want her to accept me, but I want her to accept me willingly, just because I am me, not to restrain her with anything, maybe I am not good enough, she will dislike me so much, but I don't know what to do again, Zhaohua, I'm so tired."

Zhuge Qinghong didn't know how much he had drunk, and there were already some inconsistencies between the preambles and the afterword.

Xiao Xinyi stood behind the rockery like a lightning strike, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time, Zhuge Qinghong would think that she was disgusting him. If he could, Xiao Xinyi hoped to stand up and explain his mind to Zhuge Qinghong now. said that she was willing to accompany him to do anything anywhere. But she didn't dare, and since she knew the truth ten years ago, she didn't dare to get too close to him anymore. After helping him find the county lord of Ningguo, it may be the day when the two of them parted ways.

The heartache Xiao Xinyi calmed down a little before walking out from behind the rockery, the pavilion was built on the rockery, the heavy curtains were tied up by colorful silk threads, like a blooming lily of the valley dancing with the wind in the dark night, the two figures in the pavilion lay on the stone table without moving, a wine jug fell crookedly in Chu Zhaohua's hand, and the mellow wine meandered down from the stone table one by one to the ground, like crystal teardrops.

There were two outer robes on the porch, Xiao Xinyi put Jiuxiao aside and sat on the stool, walked to Chu Zhaohua's side and helped up the crooked wine jug, picked up one of the purple robes and gently draped it on her. picked up the white robe and draped it on Zhuge Qinghong's body, only to find that he was still holding the celadon wine glass tightly in his hand after putting on the robe, Xiao Xinyi hesitated for a moment and reached out to help him take it off, his fingers touched the wine glass and his hand was grabbed by Zhuge Qinghong, in a panic, Xiao Xinyi thought that he was about to open his mouth to explain when he woke up, but found that he was still with his eyes closed, it turned out to be just a dream.

Zhuge Qinghong in the dream seemed to use Xiao Xinyi's hand as a soft pillow, leaned half of his face on her palm and muttered a sentence and fell asleep, Xiao Xinyi's face instantly turned red like a ripe cherry, and Zhuge Qinghong muttered "Xin'er" vaguely just now.

The light veil fluttered and flew, the shadows of the flowers swayed, the face in the palm of the hand was flushed from the drink, and the eyelashes, which were thicker than the woman's, were slightly upturned, covering the closed eyes like folding fans. People say that thin lips are thin, thick lips are blessed, but the lips under the high nose bridge are not thick or thin, just right, the original light lip color is also dyed with a hint of crimson with his flushed face, Xiao Xinyi looked at such a sleeping face and couldn't bear to take out his hand, until Zhuge Qinghong's eyelashes trembled like butterfly wings, Xiao Xinyi thought he was going to wake up and hurriedly pulled out his numb palm, but Zhuge Qinghong just changed his posture and did not wake up.

Xiao Xinyi rubbed his numb palms and walked to 'Jiuxiao' and sat down, picked it up and gently put it on his lap, a song of 'Leaving Hatred' fluttered, the sound of the piano trembled in people's ears, this liver and intestines were given to himself, and also to Hua Rujiang, who was hidden in the trees for half the night.

When the first rays of morning light fell on Chu Zhaohua's face, she opened her eyes in confusion, rubbed her sore forehead and found that she was still in the 'Moon Picking Pavilion', wearing her purple robe, and there seemed to be a light medicinal fragrance wafting in the air, she turned her head slightly, there were still only her and Zhuge Qinghong in the pavilion, Zhuge Qinghong was sitting opposite her and drinking the leftover wine that had been cold last night, Chu Zhaohua's face was suddenly covered with sadness, and a pair of Danfeng eyes were full of despair.

Last night was the last chance she left Hua Rujiang, as long as he was willing to take a step towards her, she could bear the rest of the difficulties. But Hua Rujiang didn't come, she was going to get engaged the day after tomorrow, her name was crowned with his surname, and she could only be his brother-in-law, the wife of the owner of the Langya Hua family's 'Seven Wounds'.

There is no room for turning back in this life.

"Qinghong, he didn't come, I can die." A smile tugged on Chu Zhaohua's lips, but it was even uglier than crying in Zhuge Qinghong's eyes.

"If you don't want to marry Hua Ruhai, you can tell the owner of Chu Zhuang, and he won't necessarily embarrass you." Zhuge Qinghong stopped the wine glass that was placed on his lips and replied in a muffled voice.

"This time is different, my father seems to be confused by a ghost, he can agree to anything, but this matter is not negotiable, and now he refuses to take me away, I marry everyone in this life is the same, marry Hualing and others can at least call me Mrs. Hua." Chu Zhaohua paused and said: "Besides, Hualing is also a talent, although his martial arts are not as good as you, it is more than enough to protect me, and after I marry, I will be the wife of the master of the door, what am I not satisfied with." Chu Zhaohua didn't know whether to comfort Zhuge Qinghong or herself, wiped a little tear from the corner of her eyes and smiled.

"If you can think about it, it is naturally the best, Hualing is devoted to you, everyone in the rivers and lakes is known, maybe after you get married, you will find that he is the most suitable one for you." Zhuge Qinghong didn't expect Chu Zhaohua, who has always been strong, to be so open-minded on emotional issues.

But he seems to have forgotten that there is a saying in the world that 'mourning is greater than dying'. Men can never guess what women really think in their hearts, even if they are as wise as Zhuge Qinghong.

"Was she here last night?" Chu Zhaohua looked at Zhuge Qinghong's face and asked.

"Came and went." Zhuge Qinghong poured a glass of wine and replied.

"What did you say?" Chu Zhaohua asked curiously.

"Didn't say anything, I'm drunk."

"I don't know when the wine in my yard became so strong that I actually drunk Zhuge Gongzi." Chu Zhaohua laughed, obviously not believing Zhuge Qinghong's words.

"Wine is not drunk, everyone is drunk."

Last night belonged to Hua Rujiang, how dare he wake up, Chu Zhaohua didn't know, but Zhuge Qinghong obviously felt his breath, he had been waiting for him to get closer, as long as Hua Rujiang was willing to take Chu Zhaohua away, the brothers in Qingxiao Hall who were ambushed around would ensure that they left Yongcheng smoothly, but last night was calm, Hua Rujiang's breath and the people of Qingxiao Hall disappeared outside the Falling Moon Villa together with Xiao Xinyi's departure.
