Chapter 42

"You are so strong, but if you want to offend my family, I will be embarrassed to be caught in the middle in the future." He raised an eyebrow and quipped. Deliver the cup of tea to her. was stared at intently by her, and her heart was furious.

"What are you looking at?"

"You make tea, it's so beautiful." She showed a sweet and intoxicating smile, took a sip, and praised, "The man makes tea without twisting or pinching, it is generous, like Wanfang picking up Ying, easy to come, and if it is flowing water, it is done in one go." is so freehand and calm, you play the piano, it must be very good. A man with both color and art, IKEA and IKEA, a woman who marries you will not suffer. ”

She admired it calmly, but it embarrassed the king of Fuling opposite, and she was so ashamed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in.

"I am a man, I am married to someone else, only a woman can live at IKEA, a husband and a child. The next time you talk like that, I'll treat you as a show of love. ”

She nodded, not denying: "You can think like that, I don't mind." ”

King Fuling laughed: "No shame! You are such a man! Haha, I didn't know you were so funny. ”

"Wasn't I funny before?"

"You used to be too cold, you didn't speak, you had a straight face, and it was scary."

"Where is it! I've always been kind. She protested.

"Yes, my father, aunt, grandmother, seventh brother, and Wen Yue are all afraid of you. You say you're scary, not scary. ”

"Nonsense!" Here it is again, this person, I really like to make fun of her. "When you saw me in Sesejiang that time, weren't you still worried that others would bully me? How did others become afraid of me in the blink of an eye. ”

"I didn't know you then, and I was blinded by your cold and pure beauty. Now that I know you, I naturally understand you deeply, and I know that you have always been the only one who can bully others, and who can bully you. ”

"As for you, aren't you honest at all! You ran to the Sesejiang River to find me, and it was clear that you wanted to hook up with me. I was afraid that I wouldn't see you, and I was accosted again and again. It's better to explain it to me directly, so as not to be like a deep resentful husband who can't get married. She was joking, and it worked as well as it should.

King Fuling put down the teacup, pounded the ground and laughed, laughing breathlessly: "Haha...... You're a person...... Haha, laugh at me, haha......"

Jiang Qi let him laugh and enjoy the tea.

After laughing for a while, King Fuling gradually stopped. He is well-dressed and gentlemanly. Learn from her and tell jokes in a serious way.

"What you said is true, I wanted to hook up with you the first time I saw you, but unfortunately your handmaid's martial arts skills are too high, and I can't beat you. I had to wait for the rabbit, waiting on the Seser River every day, pity me for a deep love, this heart is unswerving, just waiting for you to see each other twice......"

He is half-true and half-false, full of emotion, and at the end of the paragraph: "You are unparalleled, extraordinary intelligence, you should know that my mind is only true and not false, so sincere, where to find!" You and I still don't want to spend time, take advantage of the early marriage of men and women, and spend the rest of our lives together? ”

is straightforward and explicit, and there are so many touching love words that people get goosebumps all over their bodies.

Jiang Qi did not respond. The corners of her mouth seemed to raise a sneering arc, and when she looked at it, it was gone.

King Fuling's face was stunned, and he felt as if he had made a mistake. Some words were said as soon as they were spoken, and after they were spoken, they realized that they should not be so.

Jiang Qi looked at him, his eyes were like a scorpion, firmly locked, and he didn't say a word.

His gaze moved to other places in embarrassment, and her maid did not know where to go today, and such a silence with nothing to say was too heart-wrenching. It was visible to the naked eye that the roots of his ears were red. I don't know if it was because of those words and I leaked my heart, or because I was afraid of being seen through and nervous.

"You shouldn't be like this in my eyes. Everything you say is not heartfelt, it's just a play. So, you don't have to pretend to be affectionate, and you don't need to be polite and cautious, otherwise, you and I will be uncomfortable. ”

She suddenly became moody, and the cold words whipped in his face like a cold wind.

His face was extremely hot, the red of embarrassment spreading to his neck, and his skin was stained crimson.

They still haven't found the right way to get along. seems to be acquainted, making jokes to please each other, but in fact they are like two deer meeting in the wilderness, carefully sticking their heads out of each other, tentatively touching hard horns, testing whether they are friends or foes.

Or rather, they are like two snails, hiding in their own safety, greeting each other in the air, pretending to be friendly.

Why can she always poke him with such a rational and calm word, as if everything he does is a joke, obviously she is the party, but her heart is hidden deeply, like a spectator.

He was not reconciled, so he asked, "You don't believe in my heart?" You think I'm playing a show? ”

"Isn't it?"

"Not at all. Jiang Qi, in your eyes, what kind of person am I? ”

He cares a lot about his image in her heart.

"Noble." She cherishes words like gold.

Noble. He chewed on these two words, and he didn't know what he meant, did he laugh at his hypocrisy of not knowing the suffering, not understanding the sincerity, and pretending to be reserved?

He laughed sarcastically: "In front of you, others are vulgar, who dares to be a 'expensive' word!" I'm curious about what the Nine Techniques are like in your eyes. ”

"Banyan said that he was a fake immortal. It's wonderful! ”

At the mention of the Nine Techniques, she raised her eyebrows and smiled happily, the smile stabbed King Fuling's eyes, and his eyes darkened. Maybe she didn't realize it herself, but her intimacy with others was vividly displayed in a smile.

He didn't enter her heart at all, what is the use of him trying so hard to seduce? Why don't you have some practical and useful information?

"Jiang Qi, I have something to ask you. Would you like to answer? "There are some things that I don't feel at ease if I don't listen to the person concerned.

"Say."

"The woman who participated in the Battle of the Warriors twenty years ago was—"

"It's my mother."

"She's really gone?"

"Yes."

"Is my uncle and grandfather King Jing alive?"

"Alive."

He took a deep breath, fortunately, his aunt and grandmother could rest assured, her brother was still alive.

"How are King Ding and General Hongying doing now?" This king doesn't think about it, so he naturally refers to Jiang Tai.

"Died a long time ago."

He was stunned, unable to tell whether it was an accident or a pity. The genius of Tianzong that I have heard of since I was a child is gone, and the living fairy couple has ascended to heaven, but I have no chance to see it. However, the father can rest assured.

"Do you have any other relatives?"

"None."

He cheered a little in his heart, orphan girl, powerful, no relatives, no better. If he can get her, and then get the power behind her, he doesn't need to be afraid of King Liyang at all.

"Jiang Qi, let's get straight to the point and be honest with each other, you join forces with me, and I promise you the position of wife."

Smart people talk to smart people, and he believes that she can understand and will not refuse. But Jiang Qi's focus is not on joining forces, nor on his wife.

Her eyes were clear, and she asked, "Marry me alone?" ”

"There must be several side concubines, and each family must balance their forces." This is his truth. "But don't worry, no matter who you marry in the future, you will be the most important thing in my heart."

He thought he was honest enough, but obviously his honesty was worthless in Jiang Qi's eyes.

"The first time someone talked to me about marriage in person, you were very brave. However, I advise you not to show your hole cards so quickly when you negotiate terms with other women in the future, and add more emphasis to the temptation before you speak. As for your so-called wife's proposal, I don't give a damn about it. ”

She refuses mercilessly, leading the two into an embarrassing dead end.

For her possible refusal, King Fuling was mentally prepared; But he was surprised by her unsparing refusal on the spot. She is as cold as ever and says that she will change her face, does it mean that she has never been bewitched by him?

King Fuling seemed to cover his hand to his mouth in order to alleviate the embarrassment, coughed a few times, and the piece of jade wrapped in his sleeve was revealed.

Jiang Qi saw it at a glance, and his eyes sharpened in an instant, as if he had poured oil on the blade and lit a fire, and it burned with a bang.

Her reaction confirmed his suspicions, and he finally found her origin. I see! So easy to guess! No suspense!

But the look in her eyes made King Fuling realize that he had done something wrong, that he was killing himself, and that his temptation was seen through at a glance.

He pretended not to know anything, and introduced it to Jiang Qi as naturally as possible: "This jade unicorn is what my mother asked for before her death, which means that the unicorn will give her a son, and I wanted to give you a dowry today, but it seems that it is unfatal." ”

His forced cry of regret could not hide his lack of confidence, her piercing eyes made it difficult for him to sit still, she had seen through all his motives, as if he were just a ruthless liar.

King Fuling's whole body was like being scorched by flames, and he couldn't hold it anymore.

"Sorry for the offense." He put away the jade unicorn, stuffed it into his clothes, and didn't dare to show it again.

"You shouldn't have tried too much to tempt me."

Looking at her cold face, he knew that he had touched her forbidden place. In the final analysis, they have a shallow relationship, they can't talk about understanding, and they don't have the intimacy they pretend to be on the surface, they are just playing a game, testing each other, and playing with each other.

"I'm sorry, it's me who overstepped." He bowed his head and admitted his mistake, but he didn't think about it and couldn't tear his face. He was under the orders of the Emperor, and if he could not ask his father the answer he wanted, he would never have the opportunity to continue his relationship with her.

He drank a cup of pain, settled his mind, and asked the most crucial sentence of the day.

"Jiang Family...... Is there a reserve? Please tell us truthfully. ”

Although he hesitated, he finally asked. As soon as the words come out, it means that they can no longer avoid each other's intentions.

They looked at each other, there was no wave in their eyes, no resentment or anger, just a bottomless calm, as if they had seen through each other, as if sitting in front of each other was a statue, not worthy of any expression.

"No comment." This was her answer, and it gave him the answer indirectly. If not, then say no; If there is no comment, there is.

"If you don't have anything to say, please go back." Her coldness was conveyed through this uncertain emotion.

He got up to take his leave, walked hurriedly, and fled in confusion.

So be it for now, no more temptation, no more embarrassment to both sides. He can go and tell his father the news he gets, after all, his father has always been afraid that the Jiang family has an army behind him.
