Fortunately, Chang Yi quickly smiled and explained: "No, it's not what you think." I came here today to tell you what I think in my heart. ”

Chang Yi took a deep breath and said word by word: "I did have feelings for my wife, but after sharing weal and woe for so long, I also understand that those feelings are not necessarily traditional feelings, but can also be friendships."

Now, the relationship between me, my wife, and Qingyi is the same. I sincerely hope that these two friends will always be around me. I bless you two and tie the knot forever. ”

When Shen Xi heard this, the waves in his heart also faded.

"We will." A smile tugged at the corners of her mouth and she whispered.

As if he suddenly thought of something, Shen Xi's eyes narrowed slightly, and said with a smile: "I also heard that the emperor wants to personally select the crown princess for your Royal Highness, and I really hope that Your Highness can also find your own spouse." ”

Chang Yi smiled awkwardly, he really had no way to take Shen Xi no matter what.

It seems that because he has made his mind clear, this meal is also very pleasant, but Shen Xi ignored the passage of time, and when he returned to the mansion, Lu Qingyi was already waiting.

He sat down at the table and poured the cup into the cup with great calmness, and the whole process went smoothly.

Such a calm appearance made Shen Xi's heart suddenly think of a sentence - the mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings.

Shen Xi coughed lightly and walked to Lu Qingyi's side: "Ahem." ”

Lu Qingyi pursed his lips and said, "Why did you only come back now?" ”

Shen Xi looked at Lu Qingyi's appearance, and without thinking about it, he knew that Lu Qingyi knew about his going to see Chang Yi.

It's just that she Shen Xi has always been upright and not afraid of shadows, and she is innocent and not afraid, so she said: "The newly opened restaurant in the capital has a good meal, so I came back after eating something." ”

Shen Xi unexpectedly did not explain that he went to see Chang Yi, and Lu Qingyi suddenly felt a little unhappy in his heart. He raised the teacup in front of him fiercely and drank the tea inside.

Shen Xi looked at his appearance and couldn't cry and laughed: "You can't taste such a good Longjing tea, it's like pouring water, but it's really a tyrannical thing." ”

Who knew that Shen Xi's words had not yet fallen, and she felt a softness in her waist.

It was Lu Qingyi who got up suddenly and hugged Shen Xi's waist. In the next instant, a cold touch came from the corner of his lips.

It was a kiss with the fragrance of tea, which lasted for a long time, and it was not until Shen Xi was out of breath that Lu Qingyi let go of her.

Her cheeks were puffy and pink, and she hung her head to look very cute. Lu Qingyi smiled and asked, "Now, do you still feel like a waste?" ”

Shen Xi pursed his lips and said truthfully: "A cup of tea has two personalities, so naturally it is not wasted." ”

The smile on the corner of Lu Qingyi's mouth became more and more intense, and said, "Okay, don't be joking, in fact, just looking at your appearance, I have roughly guessed what he is looking for you, and I don't mind." ”

Shen Xi raised his head slightly, looked at Lu Qingyi, and heard him say: "Now that the emperor's body is gradually improving, and the situation in the court has been properly placed, no one dares to disobey His Royal Highness the Prince, and my mission can be regarded as complete." ”

Shen Xi seemed to have thought of something, and the softest string in his heart was also touched by Lu Qingyi's words: "Then are we ......?"

"I can now fulfill my promise to you." Lu Qingyi smiled and said, "When I finish dealing with the last things at hand, we will go back to Beizhuang!" ”

Summer passed quickly, and as the blades of grass slowly turned yellow, autumn hit, and everything went on as it was said.

Lu Qingyi left his trivial matters and took Shen Xi to Beizhuang and continued to do business.

It can be said that the time and place are favorable, Shen Xi's creative inspiration is also spontaneous, and the bookstores in the capital are also selling well.

The two of them occasionally go to the capital, mainly because Lu Qingyi went to visit the emperor and Chang Yi, while Shen Xi asked about the business under his own industry.

This day was originally an ordinary day.

"Boss, walk slowly—"

Shen Xi stepped out of his own property and saw that Lu Qingyi had not yet come, so he thought that he was delayed by meeting the saint in the palace, so he planned to go to the restaurant again.

But who knows, the accident happened on this short path. At this moment, because it has arrived in autumn, the day is getting darker and darker day by day, so that it is not too late, and the sky is already a little dark, like a gray mist.

Shen Xi didn't pay attention, and stepped on something under his feet. The thing, like a flimpy snake, grabbed her bare feet.

"Ahh Shen Xi was so frightened that he jumped up.

The man lying in the corner immediately trembled and said, "Girl, girl, I didn't mean to! ”

Shen Xi came back to his senses and saw that the person in front of him was disheveled, and his hair was scattered, and he was a very embarrassed woman. And its clothes are very similar to ......

Thinking of this, her mind couldn't help but be a little complicated, and said: "I didn't pay attention just now and stepped on your clothes, I should apologize to you." How did you end up here? Is there anything you can do to help? ”

The woman seemed to have no one to ask for help, and she saw that Shen Xi was kind, so she said: "Girl, don't hide it, I escaped from the Jade Building." ”

"Jade Building?" It was the biggest Fengyue occasion in the capital, and what I guessed was really right.

"I know my deed of sale is still there, but I really can't help it." The woman said, pulling her sleeve apart slightly.

Shen Xi's heart throbbed—because the woman's arms were densely covered with scars.

She immediately opened her mouth and asked, "This is done by the people of Jade Building?" ”

The woman nodded, and said pitifully: "Jade Mansion was originally a performer who did not sell herself, but recently there are always some guests who do something out of line, and our sisters don't allow it, so we will be beaten by grandma." I really had no choice but to escape. ”

"There is such a thing." Shen Xi looked at the handsome and pitiful person in front of him, and couldn't help but feel sympathy in his heart.

After thinking about it, she said word by word: "Don't worry, leave this matter to me!" ”

That night, Shen Xi placed the woman in the inn. After meeting with Lu Qingyi, he told him everything about it.

After Lu Qingyi heard this, his expression was a little complicated: "What are you going to do?" ”

"I can indeed take her in, now that the business of bookstores and restaurants is so good, it is not a problem to raise one more person, but listen to her, she is not the only victim of violence in Jade Building."
