Chapter 54: Confession
On the way back, Xie Qingning was still thinking about Liu Yingjie, this person seemed to be dressed simply, his expression was steady, and he did not have the greasy and copper smell of a businessman, and although he opened a green building, it was the Qingqi in the museum that was famous in Lanling City instead of Fengyue, isn't his purpose to make money? What's that for? If it is just to help a woman who is lonely and has to live in the dust, she can open a teahouse, a tavern or an inn, so why do you have to open a green house? What exactly is his purpose?
With full of doubts, Xie Qingning had just walked around the backyard and returned to the middle courtyard with the zither in his hand, and saw a figure walking around in front of him from a distance, and his footsteps couldn't help but pause.
Hearing the sound of footsteps from far and near, the man finally stopped, and at first glance it was their master and servant who were overjoyed, but quickly resumed his usual shout, "Seventh Miss." ”
"Young Master Lan?" Xie Qingning turned his head and looked around, the night was deep and silent, and there were no other figures in a radius of 100 miles, Lan Yongzhi was waiting for her here?
Lan Yongzhi glanced at the zither and said, "I have something I want to say to you, I don't know if it's convenient?" ”
You're stuck here, can I say it's inconvenient? Xie Qingning couldn't help but slander in her heart, but she couldn't refuse in person, so she had to let Bang Zheng go back to the wing room first, but she insisted on refusing, and she had to guard the vent in front of her to avoid any trouble, Xie Qingning couldn't only answer her, and waited for her to walk away before asking, "What's so difficult about you?" ”
Last time, Xie Qingning had persuaded Lan Yongzhi to go back to his house and persuade the head of the Lan family to hand over the strange treasure to calm the reproach of the Ye Clan, and then he didn't see her for several days, and he didn't know if he was punished before he could come out today, only when she noticed the hesitation between Lan Yongzhi's expressions, she thought that she had guessed right, Lan Yongzhi was looking for her at this moment, did she want to ask her for help?
Unexpectedly, Lan Yongzhi took a few steps forward, looked at her in a deep voice, and said, "Miss Seven, I'm ...... I want to double cultivate with you, I wonder if you agree? ”
"What?" Xie Qingning thought that there was something wrong with his ears, so he blinked his eyes and asked.
"Although the cultivation is hard, if you can indulge in it, you will feel that it is endless, but the years are long, and the loneliness is thick, I envied my father and mother when I was young, I envied the comfort and chic of my father and mother traveling all over the world, if you are willing to agree to double cultivate with me, I will promise you a lifetime of glory and happiness, are you willing?" Xu opened the topic, Lan Yongzhi simply looked at him, and in one go, he spoke amazingly endlessly.
Xie Qingning couldn't breathe when he heard this, and coughed again and again, and finally calmed down the sullen breath in his chest and asked suspiciously, "Lan Yongzhi, you and I are only a few faces, why do you want to double cultivate with me?" But what did I say wrong that caused you to misunderstand? ”
Hearing her call the word "Lan Yongzhi", the other party was stunned for a long time before asking with a slightly gloomy expression, "Miss Seven, but you don't want to?" ”
"No, I ......," Xie Qingning raised his hand to stroke his forehead, he really couldn't understand what was going on in his head, even if he was friendly with Xie Huazhao, he could take care of her like a sister, how did this idea of "double cultivation" come about?
Xie Qingning has lived two lives, and she really doesn't know that she has the qualifications of "red face and trouble", and she is only more than six years old now, how can she let the young Lan Yongzhi never forget it? She thought about it carefully, she hadn't done anything wrong with Lan Yongzhi since she was reborn, he couldn't have fallen in love at first sight, right?
Seeing that Xie Qingning did not directly refuse, Lan Yongzhi's eyes reappeared, "I have thought about it repeatedly, instead of always cultivating with others in the future, it is better to find someone who fits my eyes and can advance and retreat with me." Although there are many women in Lanling City who are also very good, but there is no one as smart and beautiful as you, if you are willing to double cultivate with me, I don't mind if you are a descendant, nor do you mind if you are valued by the Xie family, and I will ask my grandfather to personally come to the door to propose, let you marry in style, and cherish you, and I will never live up to it in this life! ”
Xie Qingning was stunned when he heard this, and thought, "If you dare to love, you can't find a suitable person to think of me?" Do I have to be you? Or do you see that I am in an awkward position in the Xie family, so you want to help me? ”
Sighing secretly, although she didn't like Lan Yongzhi's childish behavior very much, but after all, the other party was also thinking about her situation without malice, Xie Qingning had no choice but to say, "Young Master Lan, not every monk has the intention of 'double cultivation' with others, not to mention that I have long been determined in this life that I will not marry until I ascend to the tribulation, if you really think about me, you can treat me as a sister like my third brother, and I can also respect and love you like my brother, but that's all I don't think, do you understand?" ”
"Seventh sister, you ......," Lan Yongzhi's young and old face finally turned red urgently, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was obviously anxious and unbearable, "I don't mean to be frivolous, and I don't mean to ruin your reputation, let alone tease you, although you and I only plan a few faces, but I think you are different, I care about you very much, and I also like your intelligence and wit, which gives birth to ......." ”
"Young Master Lan," Xie Qingning heard the laughter of men and women coming from the front yard, obviously someone was approaching, and hurriedly interrupted him, "I have already shown my heart, why should you be strong?" It's true that you are very good, but it has nothing to do with me, or I don't care if all the men in the world are excellent, what I want is to ascend to the fairy world and get rid of the highest state of suffering in this red world, so I don't want to drag down my body and mind for any male and female affairs, do you understand? ”
This time, Lan Yongzhi was completely awakened as if he had been doused with cold water, he looked at Xie Qingning in a daze, almost couldn't believe that he had been rejected, and he still refused without hesitation!
Thinking of him and the queen, I don't know how many matchmakers have broken through the threshold of the Lan family to ask him for marriage, and there are countless girls who either explicitly or implicitly want to tie the knot with him, and double cultivation together, he didn't like them at all, and he didn't even use his eyes to look at them, but he didn't expect that the only woman he liked disdainfully of him and refused in person, and a thick bitterness immediately surged in his heart, but he didn't regret and unwilling, he only blamed himself for being abrupt, he shouldn't have confessed to her so soon, and now it's hard to ride a tiger, do you really have to give up?
"It's getting late, let's go back, don't keep them waiting." Xie Qingning persuaded with a light smile on his face.
At this point, Lan Yongzhi could only nod helplessly, and silently followed their master and servant back to the wing.
