"I'm sorry, I have something to do first." The son, dressed in white, smiled apologetically and turned to leave.

"This, this, I'm sorry, Ruoqing, I didn't know they all reacted this way." Li Xia apologized embarrassedly, her pretty face flushed.

"It's okay, I'm fine." Xu Ruoqing smiled and patted Xu Ruoqing's hand to show that it didn't matter to her, she didn't care.

Although she didn't care about other people's reactions, she still felt a little strange. It stands to reason that Xu Ruoqing came out to a party as the "daughter of the Zhongshu Lingfu" for the first time, and it should be the first time to meet everyone, how could it be this reaction?

Xu Ruoqing couldn't figure it out for a while, so she could only give up.

"Xiaoxia! What are you doing there? A voice calling for Li Xia came from not far away.

Li Xia and Xu Ruoqing looked for prestige, only to see two handsome girls standing in the shade of the tree and waving the handkerchiefs in their hands to this side.

"By the way, I'll take you to meet them." Li Xia's eyes lit up, and she suggested to Xu Ruoqing in a brisk tone.

Xu Ruoqing looked at the two girls under the tree, felt familiar, and thought for a while, aren't these the two people she met at the gate of the county lord's mansion when she was Zhong Lijing.

"Speaking of which, you were still staring at them when I first saw you, how is it, do you have any impression?" Li Xia asked expectantly.

"I have some impressions, I was really a little envious when I saw them so good at that time." Xu Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled.

"Then let's go over." After speaking, Li Xia took Xu Ruoqing's hand and went over.

"Xiaoxia, who is she?" Wu Xiaomei and Nie Qingxin looked at Xu Ruoqing, a little curious.

Li Xia grinned, gently pushed Xu Ruoqing forward, and said, "Let me introduce you." This is Xu Ruoqing, the second lady of the Zhongshu Ling Mansion. ”

Xu Ruoqing, who was pushed forward, stood up and greeted the two.

"Hello, my name is Xu Ruoqing."

Wu Xiaomei and Nie Qingxin glanced at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes. However, the two still introduced themselves to Xu Ruoqing with a reserved smile.

"That, Miss Xu, we have a question for you, is it convenient?" Nie Qingxin rubbed her head, a little embarrassed, and Wu Xiaomei next to her also squeezed her hands, a little awkward.

"What's your name, Miss Xu, are you all friends, aren't you embarrassed to call you like this? It's good to call Ruoqing directly. Li Xia grabbed Nie Qingxin's shoulders and said eagerly.

"This, I'll call Sister Xu." Nie Qingxin struggled to say, and then glanced at Xu Ruoqing with a look for help.

Xu Ruoqing smiled and nodded.

Li Xia looked at Wu Xiaomei expectantly, and Wu Xiaomei also quickly said that she would also call Xu Ruoqing Sister Xu in the future.

Li Xia finally smiled with satisfaction.

"Okay, so now let's sit down and talk a little bit over a bite to eat?" Li Xia proposed.

Xu Ruoqing was about to say that she was fine, but a shouting male voice stopped her.

"Miss Qing, aren't you coming with us?" Zhongli asked, standing under another tree not far away.

Li Xia and the three of them looked at Xu Ruoqing's gaze suddenly changed, full of inquiry.

Xu Ruoqing scolded Zhong Lizheng for being stupid in her heart at the moment. Such a loud shout is known to everyone. Didn't he see that he was busy, and besides, when did she and Zhongli Zheng agree to have lunch together.

"Ruoqing, do you want to go over?" Li Xia looked at Xu Ruoqing and didn't speak for a long time, and asked.

Xu Ruoqing thought about it for a while, and wanted to reject Zhong Lizheng's words and cultivate a relationship with these new friends, but she didn't expect Zhong Lizheng to come directly from there.

"Hello young ladies and young ladies, my name is Zhong Lizheng." Zhongli was raising the folding fan, and his handsome face was full of smiles.

Wu Xiaomei and Nie Qingxin blushed almost immediately, and even Li Xia, who was a little grinning, couldn't help but blush by this smile.

All three of them introduced themselves a little shyly. Zhongli is going back one by one.

"I have an appointment with Miss Qing in advance, I wonder if the girls can let Miss Qing with me for a while?"

In just a few words of exchange, Zhong Lizheng touched the hearts of these young ladies, so the three of them at this moment were shy to say that there was no problem.

And Xu Ruoqing watched the corner of her eyes twitch beside her. If there is anyone else who can provoke others so quickly, she believes that as long as Zhongli is daring to admit the second, no one will dare to admit the first.

"But when did I make an appointment with you?" Xu Ruoqing still didn't give up, and then asked.

"When I went to see you the other day, didn't you say yes?" Zhongli Zheng showed a surprised expression, and then as if he thought of something, he asked again, "You shouldn't admit it, right?" ”

"But I just agreed to participate in this!" Xu Ruoqing corrected.

Zhongli Zheng immediately showed an aggrieved expression, and asked in a pitiful whisper, "So you really don't want to chat with me for a while and eat something?" ”

Xu Ruoqing felt that the corners of her eyes were bruised, how could this man be so shameless. Oh yes, yes, I've been so used to seeing his mask that I've almost forgotten that this is a shameless person.

Wu Xiaomei, who was next to her, looked at Zhong Lizheng's pitiful expression and aggrieved eyes like an abandoned puppy, and her heart had already softened.

At this time, she didn't care about the estrangement that she had just met Xu Ruoqing, and approached her and whispered, "Why don't you go with him?" We really don't have a relationship. ”

Xu Ruoqing glanced at the three new friends who had already written the mood of "Zhongli Gongzi looks so pitiful that he was abandoned, so pitiful, you promised him to leave us alone", and felt very helpless.

But I didn't expect Zhong Lizheng to say again at this time: "Okay, you must be reluctant to your new friend." But why didn't you think of bringing them with you? ”

"Really, really?" Before Xu Ruoqing could speak, Li Xia asked excitedly.

"Of course, it's also my honor to be with three beautiful young ladies." Zhongli was blinking and smiling heartily.

The three of them immediately looked at Xu Ruoqing with expectant eyes.

"So, can I invite you to come with me?" Xu Ruoqing asked calmly.

Although the answer was obvious, the three of them replied to Xu Ruoqing in a reserved manner.

Zhongli was leading the four girls to the tree where he had been staying.

There was a big area under the tree that was also very flat, which was perfect for them to do this activity.

Seeing Zhongli coming back, several people under the tree looked at him with smiles.

"Zhongli, you're back. Hey, how did you bring so many people back with you? It's not that it's just ...... Qingxin, why are you here too? A handsome man in white spoke.

"Brother!"

"Young Boy."

Two voices rang out one after the other.

"Little Sister Wu, you're here too." Nie Qingyang nodded at Wu Xiaomei, his attitude lukewarm.

Originally, she was excited and shy because she saw Nie Qingyang, but Wu Xiaomei froze a little.

Sure enough, doesn't Qingyang Gongzi have a good impression of her......

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little cold, Zhong Lizheng waved the folding fan twice and said, "What, wouldn't it be good to bring a few more beautiful ladies of the family to show you?" Look at these few, how beautiful. ”

Wu Xiaomei and Li Xia blushed again.

Xu Ruoqing pretended that she couldn't hear with a wooden expression, just a solid wood with no feelings.

"Eh, I warn you, you don't want my sister to harm anyone!" Nie Qingxin, who came next to him, hid behind him, and Nie Qingyang looked at Zhong Lizheng vigilantly.

"Don't worry, your sister isn't my type." Holding Nie Qingyang's shoulder, Zhongli swore that his friends and sisters would not be bullied.

"I haven't disliked you yet, but you don't like my sister for being good-looking?" Nie Qingyang raised his eyebrows and sarcastically, but he didn't throw off the arm that Zhongli was putting on his shoulder.

"Then you should be careful." Zhong Lizheng was not angry, but just pounded Nie Qingyang's chest, signaling him to rest assured.

"Okay, let's not talk about that, let's all sit down." As the host, Zhongli was motioning for all the young ladies standing to sit down and chat.

"First of all, let me introduce to you, this is Miss Xu Er of the Xu Mansion of Zhongshu Ling." Zhong Lizheng introduced Xu Ruoqing to everyone with a smile.

Xu Ruoqing expressed her gratitude to everyone. By the way, I took a look at the people sitting here.

The third prince, the fifth prince and several other noble sons of the capital are all here.

Zhong Lizheng has already taken care of the ownership of the capital, it is actually quite powerful, and the efficiency is really high.

Xu Ruoqing, who had already sat down, couldn't help but sigh again about Zhong Lizheng's strong ability to do things.

But they didn't expect that while Xu Ruoqing observed them, they also observed Xu Ruoqing.

When they heard that Xu Ruoqing was the concubine of Zhongshu Ling, everyone here had their own ideas.

The third prince squinted his eyes, feeling that this Xu Ruoqing was really inexplicably familiar, and this familiarity felt like Zhong Lijing he had met before.

Chang Gongzi faintly felt that this Zhong Lizheng could even make an appointment with the baby concubine who was not going out in the middle school, which was really skilled.

And there is also a person who is also from the Xu Mansion - Aunt Zhou's son and Xu Yuanjiang's eldest son, Xu Yuanqian.

Xu Yuanqian frowned and looked at the second sister who was rumored to be abused by others in his family. I think it's incredible that she can climb the high branch of Zhonglizheng.

However, thinking of his father's attitude towards his second sister, Xu Yuanqian felt that even if she climbed to the top of the branch, her father's current status would not change her much. Thinking of this, Xu Yuanqian's eyes were full of pity when he looked at Xu Ruoqing.

Feeling the sight full of pity in the many sights, Xu Ruoqing looked at it suspiciously, but the sight had disappeared, and the owner could not be found.

Seeing that Zhong Lizheng only introduced Xu Ruoqing and did not introduce them, and saw that the attention of several handsome and extraordinary men here was snatched away by Xu Ruoqing, and he did not give them a slight, Wu Xiaomei's heart couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

Looking at the people here and the handsome and noble men she had secretly seen, Wu Xiaomei decided to fight for herself.

"Sister Xu, won't you introduce us to it?"
