Chapter 55: No, it's time for us to leave
Mu Qianxia was about to fall asleep after sending away the cold smoke, when she heard Man Rou whispering outside the house: "Princess, have you slept?"
"Not yet. What's wrong? ”
"The slave maid heard from the people in the prince's courtyard that the prince came out of the study and came in the direction where you are, and should be coming in soon."
"Okay, I got it." Mu Qianxia reluctantly agreed. Is she a feng shui treasure here today, why do they all pick this point to find her? She wanted to refuse, seeing that Manrou at the door called her like that, even if she said she was asleep, Manrou would definitely wake her up.
Mu Qianxia walked to the table in the middle of the bedroom and sat down, drinking the still warm tea alone.
"Shallow, it's so late, and you haven't slept yet?" Gu Li pushed the door in, and saw Mu Qianxia sitting there alone pouring himself a drink, and said with a smile.
"I was going to sleep, but Man Rou and I said you were coming over, so I sat here and waited for you." Mu Qianxia didn't raise his head and said authentically.
"I heard that Mu Xiaoxi and Hanyan came to you today?" Gu Li said as he walked to Mu Qianxia and sat down, took another teacup on the table, and poured himself a cup of tea.
"Well, what's wrong?" She knew that Gu Li would not come to her for no reason.
"What did they tell you when they came to you?" Gu Li took a sip of tea and asked casually.
"I didn't say anything, I just talked about family life, or do you think they will tell me something, what should they say?" Mu Qianxia put down the teacup and chuckled.
"I thought they'd say, they'd take you away." Gu Li put down the teacup, stared at Mu Qianxia's eyes, and said word by word.
This sentence Xiaoxi mentioned to her that as long as she wanted to leave, Xiaoxi and Hanyan would do their best to help her, but she refused. Even if she succeeds, where will she go? She still understands Gu Li's methods, as long as he wants to find her, he will definitely be able to find her, where can Hanyan and Xiaoxi stop.
"Konishi did say this to me." Mu Qianxia replied honestly.
Gu Li's hand holding the teacup tightened, the smile on his face disappeared little by little, and his eyes stared at Mu Qianxia, as if Mu Qianxia couldn't say a satisfactory answer to him, he would tear her apart with his own hands.
"I refused." Mu Qianxia smiled indifferently and said.
Gu Li's expression softened significantly with these words, and he lowered his eyes to hide the joy in his eyes, "Why did you refuse?" ”
"There's no reason, I just think it's good to live like this now, and I don't want to bother anymore." Mu Qianxia stared at the teacup in front of him and said.
Gu Li hummed softly.
After that, neither of them spoke again, and only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard quietly.
After a long time, just when Mu Qianxia felt that she was going to sit and fall asleep, Gu Li suddenly spoke: "When I went out today, I passed by a store and found that one of its hairpins was very good-looking, and I felt that it was particularly suitable for you, so I bought it." With that, he reached into his arms and took out the hairpin.
I saw that the hairpin was green all over, the hairpin body was carved with a lifelike colorful phoenix, a snow lotus bloomed quietly on the hairpin, and there was a lotus seed-like pendant, which was elegant and dusty.
It's very good-looking, and it deserves to be able to enter Gu Lifa's eyes. This is Mu Qianxia's first instinct.
"How, how, you, hi, do you like it?" Gu Li found that he who had always been able to speak well would become stuttering at this moment.
Mu Qianxia nodded, "I like it." ”
Gu Li breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling that his whole person was much more relaxed, "This is the first time I have bought something for a woman, as long as you like it." ”
"Thanks, by the way, you really have a good eye." Mu Qianxia said with a smile.
"If it's okay, I'll go back first, you can rest early."
"Well, good night."
"Good night." Gu Li got up and left, carefully closing the door.
The moment he turned around, the usual calm and calm expression on his face could no longer be maintained, the corners of his mouth were raised, and his eyes were full of smiles, like a child who secretly ate candy behind his parents' backs. Even the indifferent and distant aura on his body has receded a lot, giving people a sense of intimacy.
"Lord Wang, you seem to be in a good mood?" It was the first time for Manrou to see Gu Li smiling so happily, and she couldn't help but ask boldly.
"It's good, it's never been so good." Gu Li replied casually. This is the most peaceful time between him and Mu Qianxia since Xi Chu left, and she also said in person that she thinks it's good to be like this now, and she won't leave him again.
Gu Li turned around and stood in front of Mu Qianxia's house for a moment, and then left with a relaxed and happy pace. Alone Manrou stood in place, looking at Gu Li's departing back with a complicated expression.
…………
Two days later, Han Yan and Mu Xiaoxi came to Mu Qianxia to say goodbye.
"Sister Princess, Brother Hanyan and I are leaving the capital, and we are going to leave you alone in this strange place, you must take care of yourself, Brother Hanyan and I will definitely come to accompany you again when we have the opportunity in the future." Mu Xiaoxi said with tears in his eyes.
Mu Qianxia touched Xiaoxi's hair and said with a smile: "What is the ability of the princess sister, doesn't Xiaoxi still understand?" If I don't want to, no one can help me. You can go home boldly. ”
"Sister Princess, Xiaoxi can't bear you." Konishi said pitifully.
"Sister Princess is also reluctant to take Xiaoxi." As soon as I thought that Xiaoxi was going to leave, and I wouldn't see each other for a long time after that, a deep reluctance welled up in my heart.
"Okay, let's not talk about this sadness, Sister Princess has good news for you, this is Sister Princess's hard work to come out of the hall of Hanyan." Mu Qianxia winked playfully, forcibly suppressed the sadness in her heart, and pretended to be relaxed.
"What's the news?" Mu Xiaoxi was quickly taken away by Mu Qianxia's words, and even the sadness of parting was left behind for a while.
Mu Qianxia looked at Mu Xiaoxi with some amusement, turned her head and whispered in her ear: "The first night you came, Hanyan came to me, I talked to him for a long time, what do you guess he is with me?"
Mu Xiaoxi said stupidly: "What did Brother Hanyan say?" His eyes were full of eagerness.
Mu Qianxia shook her head imperceptibly, her affection for Hanyan was too deep, and she didn't know if it was fortunate or unlucky, but fortunately, Hanyan liked her now.
"Your Hanyan brother confessed to me in person, he, like, you." looked at Mu Xiaoxi's impatient expression. The last word, Mu Qianxia deliberately delayed for a long time before saying it.
"Really? Sister Princess, are you telling the truth? Brother Hanyan, he really likes it" Speaking of this, Mu Xiaoxi's voice stopped abruptly, and he hesitated for a long time before he spoke softly, "Me?" ”
"You heard it right, Hanyan admitted that he likes you!" Mu Qianxia must be very authentic.
"Ahh I can't believe it's true, I'm so happy, Sister Princess, I've waited so long, I've worked so hard for so long, and I've finally waited for this sentence, Sister Princess, I've grown so big, I've never been so happy as I am now. Mu Xiaoxi said excitedly. A smiling face turned red with excitement, and her eyes were shining, as if a star had fallen under her eyes.
Mu Qianxia looked at Xiaoxi's happy appearance, only to feel that her mood was also infected by her smile, and her mood was much better, and the previous sadness had long been swept away.
In this world, there is nothing more joyful than the person you like happens to like you.
"Okay, Konishi, be more restrained, don't let people see the joke. I don't know why Hanyan didn't tell you, but I believe he had his own plans for doing so. ”
"Sister Princess, will Brother Hanyan regret it?" Mu Xiaoxi restrained his smile and said cautiously. That look, as if his most precious thing might be broken at any time.
"No, you can rest assured. You've been following Han Yan for so many years, don't you need me to know him? I believe in him, don't you believe in him? ”
"Naturally, I believed in him. It's incredible just to think about it, it's like a dream, Sister Princess, do you know the feeling that one day you think about something that you think about day and night really comes true? ”
"I understand." At that time, when Gu Li said that he liked her, she was also Xiaoxi's current feeling, but the situation at that time was different from now, so she didn't show any special joy.
"Hahahaha, Sister Princess, my wish has come true, I'm really happy, really happy."
"Okay, I see, you have to repeat it a few times, don't you see others looking at you again?" Mu Qianxia pretended to be disgusted.
"Hee-hee, I didn't control myself for a while." Mu Xiaoxi smiled embarrassedly when he saw that the people around him were looking at him with strange eyes.
"Well, know you're happy. I told you about this quietly, so you have to remember to pretend you don't know about it and see what Hanyan wants to do. ”
"Uh-huh, got it."
Seeing that the time was almost over, Hanyan took a few steps forward and interrupted the conversation between Mu Qianxia and Mu Xiaoxi, "Xiaoxi, it's not too early, we should leave and say our final goodbyes to Qianxia." ”
"Hmm." Mu Xiaoxi nodded obediently and said, "Sister Princess, goodbye, I don't know when I will see you again, I wish you all the best, cherish."
"Cherish, may your wish come true soon." Mu Qianxia said as she glanced at the cold smoke.
Mu Xiaoxi's face flushed.
"Hanyan, Xiaoxi will be handed over to you, you must take care of her. If anything happens to you in the future, remember to send someone to tell me, and I will definitely find a way to help you. Mu Qianxia smiled and said.
"Okay, I'll give you the same words, you must be strong in everything, don't hold on, Xiaoxi and I will always be your most solid backing."
Konishi nodded cooperatively.
"Okay, I won't say more sensational, you guys should leave quickly."
"Well, Qianxia, cherish, I hope you are well."
"Precious."
Hanyan carefully helped Xiaoxi into the carriage, turned around, glanced at Mu Qianxia again, didn't say anything, just nodded at her with a smile, and then got into the carriage.
Watching the carriage start slowly, Mu Qianxia was full of emotion, they are going to the mountains and rivers for a long time, and the day of meeting is far away, this farewell is likely to be never seen again in the future.
It wasn't until their carriage completely disappeared from Mu Qianxia's sight that Mu Qianxia turned around and went home.
