Chapter 149: The King of the Counties, No Appointment (25)
"No, in fact, you don't need anything, you don't need to be so extravagant and wasteful." Cheng Xiao had a little headache when she thought of those heavy jewelry placed on her head.
Besides, how kind would the old lady be? She was still a little skeptical, but it didn't make sense to say it.
The more Deng Bowen looked at Cheng Xiao, the more satisfied she became, she was really different from the eldest ladies in the house, she didn't pay attention to those vain women, but the more she was so unpretentious, he needed to give her more things.
"Yi'er, don't worry, as long as it's for you, my cousin will definitely give you the best." Deng Bowen thought of the bad things between his father and mother, and vowed in his heart that he would never treat his cousin cruelly like that.
"Ahem," Cheng Xiao wondered if Deng Bowen had misunderstood something? Cousin, are youβ"
"Yi'er, call me Bowen." He looked insistent, his eyes were full of hope, and just thinking about reading his name from her mouth was very wonderful.
Blog posts? Cheng Xiao didn't want to say anything, "Cousin, this is not appropriate, that's the old ladyβ"
"What old lady, she will be your grandmother in the future." Deng Bowen doesn't like Cheng Xiao like this, "Don't worry, you will be a serious lady in the Chengjun Palace; Saying that, he thought of the information he had heard, "No matter what your identity was before, you will be my cousin Deng Bowen in the future, and no one will dare to gossip about you." β
Listening to his tone, it seemed that he also knew in his heart that he was not his cousin, and Cheng Xiao confessed directly, "Actually, you should know that I am not your cousin at all, I am just your cousin's cousin." β
"I know, so what? That's my cousin too! β
The firmness in Deng Bowen's eyes did not waver, "Don't say this in the future, I will act as if I didn't hear anything today." β
ββ¦β¦β
Cheng Xiao didn't speak, and she was still reluctant in her heart.
Deng Bowen didn't say much, took her to the door of the Chengcheng County Palace, and took out a delicate jade pendant from his body, "Cousin, you can enter and leave the mansion freely in the future." β
Looking at the cyan jade pendant lying quietly in his palm, Cheng Xiao hesitated, looked at him and then looked at the jade pendant in his hand, "This-"
"Is this the King of Chengjun?"
A very calm voice came, Cheng Xiao only felt very familiar, and as soon as she looked up, she saw a familiar face, and she was stunned for a while.
Deng Bowen saw that he was tired, and he said that he was very vigilant, "Are you?" His eyes were always fixed on the man behind him, when did such a handsome son come to the city?
"A-Lin?" Cheng Xiao was very surprised, why did this man look so similar to Ah Lin?
Hearing Cheng Xiao's voice, Zhu Lin's eyes changed slightly, and he cleared his throat, "Girl, I'm Zhu Lin, do you know me?"
Zhu Lin? Cheng Xiao's whole person froze, her mind was in chaos, could it be that Ah Lin is Zhu Lin?
Deng Bowen didn't like to see Cheng Xiao in a daze for other men, so he pulled her behind him, "Your Excellency is the little county king of Zhongjun Wangfu?" I heard that the little county king has been unconscious all along, when did he wake up?
Zhu Lin didn't plan to take Deng Bowen in his eyes at all, and looked at Cheng Xiao directly, "I think you are very familiar, but we know each other?"
