Chapter Twenty-Six: Drag It Out as You Can
Lin Xiyan pondered for a while, her eyes wandering, guessing Wu Chaoqing's motive for coming this time.
Xiao Ming saw that Lin Xiyan was full of suspicion, and it was not as she had guessed before, she would be full of joy to welcome Wu Chaoqing in.
It seems that Lin Xiyan is indeed a little angry this time, her mouth opened slightly, she should be saying something.
It's just that Xiao Ming can't hear it clearly at all, and he doesn't really want to hear it now, who knows if it's a good word.
However, reason told Xiao Ming that it was better to let Wu Chaoqing in as soon as possible, no matter what he was, so he had to interject.
"Miss, Young Master Wu is still waiting for you outside the gate of our Guanjin Mansion at this time, if you don't want him to come in today and don't want to talk to him, I'll go and convey my meaning."
"Wait, I didn't say I wouldn't let him in."
"Then you mean, let me go outside the door now and let him in?"
"No, let him stand outside more."
Lin Xiyan's face was a little playful, and there was also a hint that he wanted to deliberately rectify Wu Chaoqing.
Xiao Ming has been following Lin Xiyan for a few years, and she naturally understands some of her careful thoughts.
"Miss, forgive Xiao Ming for taking the liberty of reminding me. Young Master Wu's status is noble, if he is like this, let him stand outside the door of Guanjin Mansion all the time. If it spreads, Madame will blame you for your inconsiderate hospitality, and outsiders will also know that our Guanjin Mansion and their Niepang Mansion have a conflict. You are open-minded and informal, but don't just be a trivial matter, don't hurt the peace when the time comes. ”
"Of course what you said is reasonable, but I don't think that the cause of my previous quarrel with him is a trivial matter for me."
Lin Xiyan confessed to Xiao Ming very seriously, which made Xiao Ming more persuasive.
"Then since you don't think it's a trivial matter, Miss, Young Master Wu is already standing outside the door, and you can just make it clear when you meet this time. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds if he could understand your mind and resolve the conflict? ”
Lin Xiyan shook his head, directly rejecting Xiao Ming's idea.
"You don't understand, he's a person who has to do everything according to his own thoughts, and he doesn't listen to people at all."
Lin Xiyan complained a few words, but in fact, the arrogance in his heart had disappeared a lot, and he was not so angry anymore.
"Then, Miss, Young Master Wu outside the door, just let him continue to wait outside?"
Xiao Ming asked again, Lin Xiyan also thought about it for a while, for Wu Chaoqing, if he was really a little anxious, then there must be something important.
If it is delayed, the responsibility will fall on him to some extent, and it will be even more difficult for Wu Chaoqing to refuse when he comes to the door.
It just so happens that Master Lin and Mrs. Lin are not in the house today, which can be regarded as a good opportunity for the world of two people, a good time to meet.
Lin Xiyan removed her hand from the table, then stood up, just glanced at Xiao Ming and looked out the window.
I don't want to say anything more, but I still have to talk about what I should have said.
"Alright, alright, let him in. But the action should be lighter, Xiaohe should still be resting in the room now, don't wake him up, otherwise don't blame the old and new accounts together. ”
"Okay miss, I'll go now."
Xiao Ming received Lin Xiyan's instructions, and did not stand in the room for long, but walked directly to the outside of the room with small steps.
Lin Xiyan looked at Xiao Ming's impatient happiness, and for some reason, there was an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Once upon a time, whenever Wu Chaoqing came to Guanjin Mansion, she was also full of expectations like Xiao Ming. It's just that after a long time, I have long lost the longing I had before, after all, if you want not to be disappointed, you have to not have expectations.
But then again, you still have to adjust your emotions and not bring excess emotions to deal with other things.
Lin Xiyan squeezed her face and arched her nose again, as if she wanted to try her best to make a look of indifference and indifference.
Xiao Ming walked to the gate of Guanjin Mansion and couldn't wait to say to the two guards at the door.
"Okay, Miss has already made it clear to me just now, let Young Master Wu come in, they have something to talk about in person."
"Yes."
After listening to Xiao Ming's words, the two guards retreated to both sides of the gate very politely, and let Wu Chaoqing enter.
After entering the mansion, Xiao Ming did not forget to repeat Lin Xiyan's words just now.
"Young Master Wu, Miss said, when you come in, don't make a noise to the young master who may be resting."
"Yes."
Wu Chaoqing only responded briefly, and glanced at Xiao Ming, and Xiao Ming understood what he meant.
didn't linger long, Xiao Ming trotted briskly to the door of Lin Xiyan's room.
But this time was different from just now, Xiao Ming did not stand at the main entrance of the room, but on the side of the room, talking to Lin Xiyan.
"Miss, Young Master Wu is here."
Lin Xiyan walked to the window from the side of the table, and when she saw Xiao Ming coming, she just waved her hand and said calmly.
"Alright, got it. You stand down first, I'll call you later. ”
"Yes, miss."
Xiao Ming's movements were very fast, and after speaking, he stood back to the place where he had been standing in the afternoon.
Wu Chaoqing walked slowly in the Guanjin Mansion, his eyes swept to the left and right from time to time, and there was no change.
Such a familiar environment seemed to give him a feeling of returning to his own home, even if he quarreled with Lin Xiyan.
It didn't take long for Wu Chaoqing to walk outside Lin Xiyan's door. Xiao Ming looked at him and smiled respectfully.
When Wu Chaoqing crossed the threshold of Lin Xiyan's room and walked into the room, Lin Xiyan was no longer at the desk.
Lin Xiyan was half-sitting on tiptoe on a relatively low table by the window, and there was a water bottle next to him, which contained a few bouquets of flowers that did not belong to the early autumn season, and now they had almost withered and withered.
Lin Xiyan and Wu Chaoqing's eyes touched each other in the air, and the first time they saw each other, they both raised the corners of their mouths.
Lin Xiyan lost the intention of wanting to be angry at Wu Chaoqing before, and after not seeing him for a few days, Lin Xiyan's first feeling was that Wu Chaoqing was thinner than before.
As the so-called day is not seen, such as every three autumns, these days are not seen, and I can't help but think about his days, Lin Xiyan also feels uncomfortable.
It's not short, it's not long, thinking about Wu Chaoqing has become a habit, and it seems that he is really a little dependent on him.
On the other hand, Wu Chaoqing, standing at the door, was not as restrained and timid as Xiao Ming. But he was just standing at the door, and he didn't walk to Lin Xiyan's side for the first time, and the two kept a certain distance.
It wasn't until Wu Chaoqing stood still that Lin Xiyan stared at him intently, even before, but more at his whole.
Looking at it this way, Wu Chaoqing's face was not as anxious as Xiao Ming described just now.
On the contrary, Lin Xiyan was waiting for Wu Chaoqing to come in, and she walked around the room for a while, as if she was more anxious.
Seeing Wu Chaoqing's face full of smiles, in this way, he seemed to have really lost his memory from the last quarrel, and he didn't remember it at all.
This couldn't help but irritate Lin Xiyan a little, but Wu Chaoqing didn't take it to heart about the problem he was so interested in.
Lin Xiyan adjusted his mentality, thinking that he couldn't always give Wu Chaoqing a good look, otherwise he would think that he was a bully.
"Yo, where did this come from today, a demonic wind can actually blow Wu Chaoqing, the eldest young master of Niepang Mansion, to our Guanjin Mansion. Still, there's nothing to entertain, but don't upset you. ”
Lin Xiyan not only used very mean words, but also rolled her eyes between words, not looking at Wu Chaoqing.
However, Wu Chaoqing was not angry, but the smile just now was slightly restricted.
But even so, Wu Chaoqing still looked at him dotingly.
"Don't be angry, Xibao, don't stumble on the previous topic, I really haven't prepared yet, I don't have any plans in that regard."
Wu Chaoqing's tone was very sincere, and he answered the question that Lin Xiyan was thinking about very gently.
Well, this is the result, although Lin Xiyan also expected what Wu Chaoqing would say, but when he really said it, he still felt uncomfortable, even Wu Chaoqing's affectionate sentence "Xibao" just now, Lin Xiyan felt that it was not as pleasant as before.
Of course, Wu Chaoqing has his reasons, and he doesn't need to tell Lin Xiyan clearly.
Of course, Lin Xiyan respected Wu Chaoqing's idea and would not force him, because Lin Xiyan knew that even if he forced it, he would not get the result he wanted.
But this doesn't mean that it can be just forgotten, and the expression of dissatisfaction and disappointment on the face is still indispensable.
"So what do you think I should do to not get angry? Obviously, the responsibility is not mine, it is you who reject me. It's not that I don't think about our future, but it's like a young lady who can't be beaten or scolded. Not only did I lose my temper, but I also came to Guanjin Mansion to apologize to me after so many days, there was no sincerity at all, I was just angry, what's wrong? Isn't it possible? ”
Lin Xiyan was talking and talking, and he was angry again, and his voice was a little louder than just now.
Of course, Wu Chaoqing also understood what Lin Xiyan meant, but he was still young and didn't want to make plans so early.
Seeing Lin Xiyan's complaining face, as if she was coquettish, Wu Chaoqing walked forward again and sat on the table where Lin Xiyan had just put the book.
Lin Xiyan saw that Wu Chaoqing was getting closer, and he was still gentle. Just looking at him, Lin Xiyan felt that he didn't have anything to be angry about, people were in front of him, why did he have to force him to do what he didn't want to do at the moment?
"Okay, Xibao, don't be angry, let's talk later, okay? I'm coming to you today because there's something else I'd like to discuss with you. ”
Sure enough, this point was really not unexpected by Lin Xiyan.
But since everyone has already come, they won't keep holding on to the topic of the quarrel between the two before. After all, the last time they broke up, Lin Xiyan didn't want to meet now and start again, and the quarrel would not end well.
So he could only deceive himself in his heart, just think that Wu Chaoqing was thinking about it, and his anger dissipated a little.
However, the face still had to be pulled down, Lin Xiyan still looked at Wu Chaoqing with disgust and irritation, and asked angrily.
"Okay, what trouble did you run into this time? Long story short, don't waste my time. ”
