Chapter 8, A Farewell
Su Zhixi searched around the mansion, but there was no trace of Yu Yinyue, and after asking, she learned that she had left the mansion half an hour ago.
In desperation, he had no choice but to order the subordinates of the Huang Mansion to let him inform Su Jingyan, and the two of them could go back together.
After waiting for a while in the Lingering Garden, I saw the people who came back in a hurry, "The carriage of Sufu has left." ”
Su Zhixi asked, "Why did you go so fast, I remember that Sister Huang at the banquet also said that she had something to give to her sister?" ”
The subordinate stood with his hands down, and said without saying anything, "When I went, I happened to catch the carriage of Sufu and left. The future has to say. ”
Su Zhixi was just a fool and said, "I know, you can take me to Sister Huang." ”
originally thought that Su Zhixi would embarrass herself because of her loss of face, but she didn't want her to be angry with herself. So he hurriedly led the way.
Huang Yawen was saying goodbye to the ladies and sons in the hall at this time.
Pei Zhihan is also there.
Su Zhixi stood sideways, and under the slight candle flame, it was reflected on her face, with a touch of tenderness like water.
Pei Zhihan stood beside Huang Yawen, still the same as before.
Su Zhixi had no intention of having anything to do with Pei Zhihan anymore, not to mention that she knew Huang Yawen's thoughts, so she chose to turn a blind eye to Pei Zhihan's gaze.
However, Pei Zhihan was ignored by her, and he was generally tough, and deliberately called her "Sister Su" very warmly.
This made Su Zhixi want to pretend that he couldn't see it.
Su Zhixi replied to him from a distance, not heavy or light, "Brother Zhihan." ”
Pei Zhihan saw that she couldn't come, so he walked over and asked with concern, "Why haven't you gone back at this time?" ”
Su Zhixi saw that he was coming, so he hurriedly walked in the direction of Huang Yawen and said, "I was going back, but I was afraid that Sister Yu would be unwell and left alone to take care of her, so I went to the Lingering Garden to look for someone, and I didn't want to miss my carriage." That's why I came to Sister Huang to see if I could borrow the carriage in the house. ”
Probably because Su Zhixi used such lame moves in the past.
Huang Yawen's face showed a hint of disdain, and she said in a strange manner, "Why not, but Sister Su, are you sure you want my house to send you back immediately?" ”
Su Zhixi pretended not to hear the mockery in Huang Yawen's words, and replied frankly, "Naturally." If Sister Huang doesn't bother me. ”
Huang Yawen saw what Su Zhixi said seriously, and was about to instruct her subordinates to prepare a car for her.
Unexpectedly, Pei Zhihan, who had been ignored by Su Zhixi, took the initiative to speak, "Anyway, I have to pass by Jing'anfang when I go back." It's better to send Sister Su back by the way, and it will save you another trip to trouble Miss Huang. ”
Su Zhixi was about to open her mouth to refuse, but Huang Yawen looked angry, shook her hand and glared at her viciously, and then turned to leave.
Su Zhixi thought that if she begged her again at this time, she would not get good, although she was reluctant in her heart, she could only rely on Pei Zhihan's words.
got into the carriage of Pei Mansion.
Fortunately, Tang is open-minded, men and women share a car, and they don't fall into the handle.
There was only one place in the car that was cushioned, and Pei Zhihan arranged for Su Zhixi to sit there and sit on the wooden bench opposite.
The bell of the curfew rang in the city.
Su Zhixi opened the curtain and looked at the passers-by who were in a hurry on the road, so as to relieve the embarrassment of sharing a car with Pei Zhihan.
Pei Zhihan's eyes drifted over Su Zhixi's face as if he didn't have any, and he couldn't tell how he could take the initiative to show favor to her several times today, but he faintly felt that today's second sister of the Su family was a little different from Su Zhixi in the past.
But I can't say exactly what it is.
It seems that now, the two of them are alone, and they are Su Zhixi in the past, and those beautiful eyes are shining, and they can't wait to eat him like hungry wolves.
But now, she sat quietly like this, letting the breeze blow the broken hair scattered across her forehead.
The car was very quiet, and I thought that they would inevitably get along with each other, but Su Zhixi's openness in her gestures made both of them enjoy the tranquility of Kyoto quietly.
He watched her quietly.
Like a stranger who had never met before, he looked at her carefully again.
She had thin shoulders and a long neck, but she was thin and not brink. The appearance is amazing, but it is not gaudy, the woman from the family is arrogant between her eyebrows, and Su Zhixi is no exception, it is more arrogant, which is even more diligent.
He remembered the "Tuozhi" she danced on the table just now, and in her gestures, smiles, and smiles, she was leading people's souls.
Pei Zhihan didn't think about it, and blurted out, "Sister Su's dance today is really amazing. ”
Su Zhixi didn't expect Pei Zhihan to take the initiative to talk to him, so he was stunned for a moment, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Thank you." ”
Then there was silence.
Pei Zhihan's hand holding the accessories tightened, and he raised his head and asked without a trace, "But what did I offend my sister?" ”
In your previous life, you calculated in every possible way, falsely and falsely obtained information, squeezed out my value and then crossed the river and demolished the bridge, and colluded with Su Jingyan, so that I could not be blind to death.
Is it offended?
In the past, Su Zhixi had to smile bitterly, and in the face of his question, she asked casually, "Brother Zhihan, are you willing to marry me?" ”
Pei Zhihan didn't expect her to ask such a question, and while his words were choppy, contempt for her arose spontaneously in his posture.
He was so stupid to think she had reformed.
Su Zhixi is still Su Zhixi, even if she is suddenly talented, her foundation will not change.
So for a moment, he grimaced and replied indifferently, "Marriage is a big deal, isn't it a joke." How can you say so casually? ”
Su Zhixi smiled, "Pei Gongzi doesn't have to be so harsh. What I asked was to answer the question of the young man. ”
"Childe didn't offend me, but I was blinded by love words and lost my mind in the past. I don't know my true feelings, and it's troublesome to be at the son's place. ”
"Now that I know that Pei Gongzi will marry me, why should I lower my price to cater to you."
Pei Zhihan's face was red and white when she said it.
Her words were reasonable, neither insulting him nor feeling sorry for herself.
It stands to reason that he should be happy.
But he couldn't be happy.
"Sister Su, why bother..."
Su Zhixi didn't wait for him to speak, took off the coral bracelet on his wrist, put it on the cushion, and said plainly, "Pei Gongzi gave it, I don't dare to keep it privately, not only for the sake of Gongzi's reputation, but also for my name." You have never promised me anything, and I should no longer have any thoughts about you. ”
The bell of the curfew outside the carriage rang more and more urgently, and the carriage stopped.
The coachman shouted outside, "Jing'anfang has arrived." ”
Su Zhixi got up, but Pei Zhihan said, "I'll send you to the gate of the mansion." ”
"No need."
Su Zhixi knocked on the car door, and the driver opened the door from outside.
"Pei Gongzi, don't call me Sister Su in the future, just like them, call me Miss Su."
Pei Zhihan's whole person was as if he had fallen into an ice cellar in the cold winter, and his face was cold and terrifying.
How could it be! It's obvious that she is stalking herself, how could she say such ruthless and unrighteous words in the end.
His tone was cold, and his eyes were cold and scary, "Miss Su is serious?" ”
Su Zhixi's body stiffened, and then he bent down and got out of the carriage and stood on one side, not wanting to reply to his words head-on.
Feng Hai said calmly, "Thank you Pei Gongzi for your kindness today." ”
After that, he turned around and took a step, and there was no longer a trace of nostalgia.
