Chapter 594: Would You Like to Leave?
After taking a sip of tea and tasting it for a while, Chen Shao smiled and said, "It's really good tea, especially after the two colors, the taste is clearer." ”
Li smiled silently.
Chen Shao put the tea cup on the table, put his hands on his knees, and did not look at Li, but at the window.
The pale white window paper, somewhat yellowed by the candlelight.
The rain is heavier than just now.
And this room was quieter than when he was alone.
He flicked his sleeve.
The soaked clothes have been taken down by Luo's mother, and now she is wearing a new shirt cut a year ago, the material of the Buddha's head and green silk dark silver bamboo branches, the wide sleeves are sewn with a two-inch-wide wide green bamboo leaf pattern, and the boots on the feet are also new.
If he hadn't come tonight, I'm afraid that this new dress wouldn't have been able to reach him.
The smile on the corner of Chen Shao's lips slowly faded.
"I'm here tonight because I want to ask you what you mean." He said, spitting out the words very slowly, as if each word had been deliberated for a long time before bursting out through his lips.
Li remained silent, only looking down at his fingernails.
Although they didn't make eye contact, they all knew that she heard what he said, and she didn't say it, she was waiting for his next words.
Chen Shao's eyes closed slightly, his dark eyebrows gathered in the middle, and a trace of hesitation quickly crossed his face.
However, he soon opened his eyes again and looked back at Lee.
Li Shi hung her head, feeling two extremely cold sights, like sharp swords, smashing candlelight and cool air, projecting on her body.
That look is not so much earnest, but rather a scrutiny.
He was scrutinizing her.
It is not the husband's judgment of his wife, and his lack of warmth, but the scrutiny of her as a colleague or friend.
Li's heart seemed to be held by an ice hand, it was so cold that it hurt, the hand hidden in the sleeve was clenched, and there was a tremor in the depths of his body.
After being silent for a moment, Chen Shaofang opened his lips and said slowly at a slower speed than Fang Cai: "Zhenzhen, before I say the following words, I want to ask you, are you willing to go with me?" ”
Zhenzhen is the character of the Li family, and it was given by the elders at the time of fifteen and the time, symbolizing their high hopes for her.
Now, this small word that has not been heard for a long time suddenly enters the ear, and Li's cold heart feels a little ironic.
Such as jade upright, steadfast and self-controlled.
The elders are about to hope that she will be a well-behaved person all her life, and An Ansheng will stay in this square inch of the world, ignoring it, not liking or sad, like a dumb stone.
However, she Li Ying is human after all.
She has the joys and sorrows, warm ups and downs that everyone should have, and where can she really compare with that jade gentleman.
There was a hint of irony in Lee's lowered eyes.
She still didn't look up.
She seems to be using this posture to confront certain people, certain words, or certain thoughts in her heart.
Chen Shao's eyes stopped on Li's body for a long time.
From his point of view, he couldn't see her face, only the two rows of eyelashes that were still delicate.
Exactly the same as when he first met her.
Even though time has passed, the eight years that have passed between them have gradually become an unbridgeable gap, but the smile of the woman opposite can still warm his occasionally cold heart.
But then, the cold voice finally came.
The words seemed to shake out of the delicate eyelashes, and the hairy ground was pierced on his heart, soft and a little sharp.
"Let's go? Where to go? Li Shi smiled, as if he had heard something very ridiculous: "Since this Shengjing City can't accommodate the master, it is naturally appropriate to ask for an outside, I think that the master is alone outside, I am afraid that it will be more comfortable." ”
She finally raised her head, her face was reflected by the candle flame, and there was some yellow in the snow, moist and tranquil.
Such as jade polished over the years.
"The concubine will pick a few people in the room for the lord to bring," she smiled and picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly: "Although the lord is a civil official, there is no rule that the martial arts are outside and the family stays in Beijing, but the concubine is old, and she is too lazy to move, and she doesn't have the strength to follow the lord around." There will be people around the master who know the pain and the heat, and the carriages and horses will accompany each other and never give up. ”
She lowered her head and blew the foam on the tea water, and the bottom of her eyes covered by the rim of the cup was so cold that she couldn't melt away.
Chen Shao kept staring at her.
When she said those words, he neither interrupted nor corrected, and even a faint smile appeared between her brows.
At that moment, there was a little bit of tenderness in his obscure eyes.
"When I say go, I am not seeking to be released, but to let go of this official position, let go of my children, let go of this family, my relatives and friends, my elders and colleagues, let go of everything you and I have here, and leave the capital." He said angrily, picking up the teacup from the table.
The tea was half cold, and when he held it in his palm, it was already out of temperature, so he got up, poured the residual tea out of the window, returned to his seat, and poured a new cup of tea.
During this whole process, Li's eyes did not change when he looked at him.
Astound.
Utterly shocked.
Xu was so emotional that there was no candle flame on her face that was yellowish, only snow-white.
Even the blood on his lips faded clean.
"You say...... Where do you say you're going? She looked at him with wide eyes, as if she couldn't comprehend what he was saying.
Drop it all and leave?!
I don't even want my home and children, so I left Shengjing so naked?!
Is he crazy!
The emotion in her eyes was so strong that her snow-white face quickly turned red.
From shock to anger, it only took a moment to transform.
Li was so angry that he trembled.
How ruthless does a person have to be to say things like "let go of everything" so easily?
When did her husband become such a ruthless person?
At that moment, Li only felt that the qi in his cavity was cold, and there was no trace of warmth on his body.
Chen Shao raised his eyes and looked at Li.
The candlelight cast, illuminating his angular side face, there are some shadows next to his handsome nose bones, and the whole face is intertwined with light and dark, but it still does not diminish its handsomeness.
"Zhenzhen, you haven't answered me yet, are you willing to leave everything behind and leave with me?" He was looking at Li Shi with a solemn expression, even a little solemn, "I can't tell you where I'm going until you answer me. The only thing I can tell you is those words. ”
Such a solemn and solemn expression rarely appeared on his face.
At least in Lee's memory, there was never.
She couldn't help but be stunned, her fingers subconsciously twisted the sleeves of her clothes, and the anger and shock all faded in this instant.
Chen Shao's attitude was really weird, so weird that Li couldn't regenerate other emotions, so he could only look at him in such a daze.
"Boom", there was a sudden sound of rain outside the window, as if the wind was blowing down the water on the trees, broken and sudden.
Li Shi was startled, his fingers loosened, and the sleeves of his shirt fell down. The soft silk fabric spreads out on the knees and hangs over the side of the chair.
