Chapter 145: Affectionate Confession
At the same time that Chen Jingting went to Gu Chunyan to settle accounts, Xu Hening was about to entertain the male guests, when suddenly Bai Yingying jumped out from behind the pine tree on the side of the road and greeted him with a smile: "Cousin Hening!" ”
Xu Hening's footsteps froze, and he looked at her suspiciously: "Yingying, why are you here?" ”
"I'll be waiting for you here." Bai Yingying's face was slightly red, and she looked like a little woman's shyness.
"Oh, Yingying, are you looking for me for something?"
Hearing this, Bai Yingying's smile froze on her face, and she looked injured: "Cousin Hening, can't I look for you if I'm fine?" ”
Hearing that Bai Yingying seemed to have something to say, Xu Hening smiled indifferently: "No, it's just that you rarely take the initiative to find me, so I think you have something to do with me." ”
As he spoke, Xu Hening caught the traces and avoided the side, but Bai Yingying was keenly aware of it, and her eyes turned red all of a sudden, "You don't want to see me?" ”
"Where, I'm glad to see you." Xu Hening always maintained a polite smile on his face, but it made Bai Yingying feel a sense of indifference and alienation.
Suddenly, tears fell down, why couldn't Xu Hening be a little more enthusiastic about her? I don't know how many people would love to talk to her.
Xu Hening didn't know where to provoke Bai Yingying, so he hurriedly stepped forward and worried: "Yingying, what's wrong with you?" Is there anything I said that is wrong? ”
"Woo woo woo...... Xu Hening's intimate care made Bai Yingying's heart sour, and she couldn't help but throw herself into his arms and whimper, "Cousin Hening......"
Xu Hening's body stiffened, his hand raised awkwardly, he wanted to pat her shoulder to comfort her, but he felt that it was inappropriate, and finally he held her arms and gently pushed it up: "Yingying, don't be like this, have something to say." ”
Who knew that the more Xu Hening refused, the tighter Bai Yingying hugged her, "Cousin, why don't you want to get close to me?" Am I bad? ”
The maid who was guarding the back hugged her own lady and the eldest son of the Xu family, and suddenly looked around in fright, if others saw the gossip, the lady would definitely peel off her skin.
Xu Hening didn't want to damage her reputation, so he pushed Bai Yingying hard, but she hugged her too tightly, and she was worried about hurting her if she used too much force, so he was in a dilemma.
Bai Yingying felt Xu Hening's refusal, and her tears fell even more fiercely: "Cousin, I have something on my mind to tell you, don't push me, okay?" ”
Xu Hening seemed to anticipate what she wanted to say, and broke her arm with his big hand, and said uneasily: "I'll take you to Madame Bai." ”
Bai Yingying leaned back, steadied her footing, and looked at him painfully, her eyes were hot and intense: "Don't look for my mother, I just want to talk to you alone, cousin ......"
Xu Hening chuckled in his heart, it seemed that Bai Yingying's feelings for him were not ordinary brother and sister feelings, and before he could say anything, Bai Yingying's voice had already sounded in his ears: "Cousin, I like you, I want to marry you, be your wife, I don't want to marry someone else." ”
Forehead! Xu Hening was stunned, not knowing how to answer, but he knew in his heart that he had no love for her.
"Yingying, you are my sister in my heart, just like Heming has the same feelings for you." Xu Hening said all this, he didn't want to say too much to hurt her soul directly, but he didn't want to get entangled with her.
Bai Yingying's face was white and blue, very embarrassed, she bit her lower lip tightly, didn't speak for a long time, only stared at her with wide eyes, like an injured, poor little white rabbit, and the tears in her eyes seemed to be ready to burst out at any time.
Xu Hening looked at her pitiful, and frowned slightly, he really couldn't bear to hurt Bai Yingying, but he still hurt her. Not knowing how to comfort her, he reached out to pat her on the shoulder, but she coldly avoided her.
His hands were frozen in mid-air, and Xu Hening looked embarrassed.
"Cousin Hening, why are you unwilling to accept me? Could it be that you already have someone you like? Who is that person? Her gaze was like a chain, firmly locked on his face, refusing to let go of the slightest expression of his face.
Xu Hening's face was really stunned, she understood his thoughts at once, she smiled bitterly, no wonder she expressed her love for him three times and twice, but he pretended to be deaf and dumb and did not say anything.
My heart suddenly felt like falling into an ice cave, and I couldn't help but shudder, "Cousin, you speak!" ”
She guessed his thoughts, and she almost couldn't help but growl, but fortunately her years of upbringing had kept her from having a seizure.
Xu Hening lowered his head and didn't look at her directly, and said in a low voice: "Sort of." ”
"Heh, there is yes, there is no, what does it mean? Did you deliberately lie and deceive me in order to reject me? Hope ignited in Bai Yingying's eyes again.
Xu Hening also showed a wry smile, self-deprecating: "I like her, she may not like me." ”
Bai Yingying shook her head funny, it turns out that the truth is like this, like her, if she likes someone who doesn't like her, this love must be very painful.
As if her heart was more balanced, Bai Yingying wiped a handful of tears and asked, "Who is she?" ”
Xu Hening is so good, there are naturally not a few women who like him, and there are not a few merchants who have business dealings with the Xu family.
Xu Hening felt a hint of sourness in his heart, "She is a woman I can't get in my life." ”
Bai Yingying couldn't help but be dumbfounded, could the woman he couldn't get be too noble?
"Is she the daughter of the Shengjing family?"
Xu Hening's heart throbbed, and he shook his head in frustration: "Don't ask, in short, it is impossible for me to be with her, and it is impossible in this life." ”
"Since you know it's impossible, why don't you consider me?" She questioned in the same pain.
Xu Hening pulled out a far-fetched smile: "I treat you as a sister, and you are the same, you will still call me cousin in the future." ”
Bai Yingying understood the meaning of Xu Hening's words, and he told himself that it was impossible between them.
But today she has lowered her face to confess to him, she is unwilling to be ruthlessly rejected by him like this, she thinks that as long as she is more affectionate, she will definitely be able to touch Xu Hening's heart.
"Cousin, I ......"
"Miss." The maid hurriedly ran over and whispered, "Someone is coming, let's get out of here." ”
Bai Yingying opened her mouth, she was going to say something more, but for the sake of her father's face, she had to give up, "Cousin, let's talk about it another day." ”
Dropping this sentence, he was pulled by the maid and left in a hurry.
Xu Hening frowned and strode forward.
Bai Yingying kept letting the maid pull her to a place where there was no one, and then she shook off the maid's hand, she was in a very bad mood.
"Miss, you and Mr. Xu have been coming to Japan for a long time, why do you care about this moment." The maid didn't hear the conversation between Miss and Xu Hening at all, so she didn't know that Miss was rejected, she just thought that Miss hadn't said enough.
Bai Yingying was naturally not stupid enough to tell the maid the truth, she eased her face, "Let's go, let's go back to the wedding banquet." ”
Mrs. County, Mrs. Chen was arranged alone by Mrs. Xu in the first-class room, and as soon as Bai Yingying entered, Mrs. County Cheng found that her daughter's face was wrong.
Busy and concerned: "Yingying, are you uncomfortable?" ”
Bai Yingying chuckled and shook her head: "It's probably not enough to drink, it's all because the wine in the Xu Mansion is too delicious, and it's not too greedy for a cup." ”
Mrs. Xu smiled happily: "Miss Bai's clever mouth, come on, quickly help Miss Bai to the guest room to rest." ”
Bai Yingying shook her head again and again, "No need, I'll take the carriage back to rest, the house is so busy, I won't make a mess." ”
Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Xu couldn't help but praise Bai Yingying for being dignified and decent, and couldn't help but joke again.
And Bai Yingying didn't want to listen to the joke at all, and was supported by the maid to the ladies Fufu and retreated.
At the end of the banquet, Mrs. Chen and Chen Jingting went back together, and the two sat in the carriage.
As the carriage got farther and farther away from Xu's Mansion, Mrs. Chen couldn't help but wet her eyes, "Mother is going back to Shengjing soon, and she has ...... her daughter, but she has one thing on her mind, and I just hope that " Speaking of this, she picked up a handkerchief and wiped a few tears, "I hope your sister can be safe and sound in Xu's Mansion, and there will be no disasters in the future." ”
Mother sobbed in a low voice, Chen Jingting was distressed, and stepped forward to comfort softly: "Everyone has their own life, she is married to the richest family in Luo'an City, if she keeps to herself and her life is no worse than others, don't bother." ”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Chen stopped choking, "What you said doesn't sound right, what do you mean for her to keep to herself?" ”
Chen Jingting didn't want to talk to his mother about those bad things, so he grinned and lifted the food box in the carriage: "Mother, this is the pepper steak that Duran made today, and she specially asked me to bring you some to taste." ”
Mrs. Chen suddenly remembered Duran's appearance, and sighed: "Alas, I also liked her when I saw her that day, but she didn't get along with your sister, which made me feel sorry. ”
"Try the steak first." Chen Jingting opened the food box, took out a stack of steaks and placed them on the low table in the carriage, and looked at his mother expectantly, believing that his mother would taste Duran's cooking skills and would definitely like Duran as much as he did.
Mrs. Chen tasted it, the taste was indeed delicious and unique, and she couldn't help but smile: "This kid is ingenious. ”
Chen Jingting immediately smiled: "Mother is right, she is ingenious, and she has done a lot of things that we have never seen." ”
Mrs. Chen glanced at him with disgust and joked: "Look at your happy appearance, could it be that you like her?" ”
Chen Jingting's mind suddenly flashed a glance given to him by Gu Youan in Shilixiang this morning, and he hurriedly denied it: "No, no, I just like to eat what she makes." ”
Mrs. Chen's face became serious, and her explanation was tantamount to a cover-up, and she looked at her son carefully: "I heard that you have a very good relationship with her in private, and my mother can warn you that people are already married women, so you should restrain me a little, and don't run to her too diligently, so as not to provoke gossip." ”
Chen Jingting looked helpless, "Mother, don't think too much, I just like her straightforwardness, and no girl has ever made people feel like a boy when they have a relationship." We're pure buddy bonding. ”
"Don't lie to your mother, there will be no simple friendship between men and women, even if it is at first, then it will slowly change its taste, you give me a sober."
"Huh?" Chen Jingting's eyes couldn't help but widen in shock, what kind of logic is his mother?
