Chapter 173: Losing the Jade Pendant
Yanxiang and Chu Tiankuo lived in Shenjiazhuang.
Ever since the elder brother said to her that day, 'Don't you understand my mind?' After that, the two did not say a word again.
I don't know if the senior brother deliberately avoided her, or if there was something important to do, and there was no one all day long.
The cigarette was stuffy and panicked. Fortunately, Shen Mei often came to chat with her.
In two days, her impression of Shen Mei has changed a lot. At first, she regarded Shen Mei as a rival in love, so she had a deep prejudice against Shen Mei. And after two days of contact, she found that Shen Mei was a woman who dared to love and hate.
She thinks that Shen Mei is just a small episode in the life of the senior brother. It didn't pose a threat to her at all. Because, she observes her words and looks, and the son-in-law that Lord Shen Zhuang likes is Li Shuang.
However, tomorrow is the day when the senior brother will compete with Li Shuang. If the senior brother really defeated Li Shuang, wouldn't he really have to marry Shen Mei?
Yanxiang stood alone in the garden, pacing back and forth, anxious.
She originally wanted to tease the senior brother, but now it seems that this matter did not embarrass the senior brother, but added to her own blockage.
After some thought, she suddenly had an idea. She wanted to say goodbye without saying goodbye.
She is confident, and the elder brother cares about her very much. If the senior brother finds out that she is missing tomorrow, he will definitely give up the competition and go desperate to find her.
Maybe you won't have to wait until tomorrow. If the elder brother had found out early, he would have searched for her all night.
She was secretly smug, what a good idea. In this way, she can not only destroy tomorrow's competition, but also test her weight in the heart of the senior brother.
So, she turned and walked to the guest room where she was staying.
When she reached the door, she saw that the door had been opened, and she wondered. When she went out, she obviously bolted the door of her room, how could the door be hidden?
She opened the door and saw Lily inside.
When Lily saw the smoke coming in, she looked panicked, and seemed a little helpless and stuck in place. She was startled, as if she had been awakened from a dream, and her eyes looked as if she had just groped her way back from a distant place.
Yanxiang was very surprised and asked, "Lily, what are you doing in my room?" ”
Lily was shocked for a while, and said tremblingly: "My young lady, tell me to help you clean up the room." ”
Yanxiang was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "That's it." Then I thank you and Sister Shen. ”
Lily was so nervous that she sweated and her brain was pouring out, and her heart was beating 'winter, winter'.
Yanxiang said lightly: "It's okay." You go out. ”
Lily took a difficult step and fled out of the room.
Smoke Xiang picked up the burden placed at the head of the bed and was about to leave the room.
She suddenly realized that something was wrong. If Lily just helped her clean up the room, how could she panic like that? She was suspicious and rummaged through her baggage.
The dragon-shaped jade pendant is gone.
She quickly realized that Lily had come into her room just now to steal the jade pendant.
Her heart was on fire. I didn't expect Shen Mei to be such a person. On the surface, she is close to her, but behind the scenes, she instructed Lily to steal things.
She was so angry that she was going to find Shen Mei to theorize.
Before she could reach the door, the door squeaked open, and Chu Tiankuo flashed into the room.
Yanxiang saw that the person who came was the senior brother, his face flushed slightly, and he hurriedly lowered his head.
Chu Tiankuo looked at her suspiciously. Smoke Incense's behavior today is a little strange as usual.
As if feeling watched, the cigarette buried his head lower.
Chu Tiankuo retracted his curious gaze, coughed lightly, and said in a low voice: "Yanxiang, pack up your baggage." Let's get out of here. ”
Yanxiang raised his head, and then saw that the senior brother was carrying a burden on his shoulders. She was thrilled. A moment ago, she was planning to say goodbye without saying goodbye. The next moment, the senior brother cooperated with her.
They really know a little bit about it.
However, excitement is excitement, but the mouth has its own consciousness. She suppressed the excitement in her heart, pretended to be disdainful, and sneered: "Senior brother." Are you really willing to give up tomorrow's jousting? Miss Shen is both talented and beautiful, and she fell in love with you at first sight, are you willing to disappoint her? ”
Chu Tiankuo thought she was angry and jealous, seeing that she was so cute, he couldn't help but want to tease her again. His face suddenly approached the cigarette, and he looked at her angrily, funny, and helplessly, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He said in a joking tone: "There are so many talented and beautiful women in the world who are infatuated with me. Am I going to marry them one by one? ”
The incense of the smoke was scorched by his words. However, she has always been sharp-toothed and unconvinced: "Yes." The emperor has three palaces and six courtyards, and there are 3,000 beauties in the harem. One day you become the emperor and take all the women who love you as concubines......"
There was a strong smell of gunpowder in his tone.
As soon as the words came out, Chu Tiankuo was a little surprised, and hurriedly reached out to cover her mouth. He frowned slightly, glared at her, and scolded, "Don't bring it up again in the future." ”
Yanxiang looked at the nervous appearance of the senior brother and smiled sullenly. Her eyes moved downward, fixed on his hand covering her mouth.
Chu Tiankuo was slightly stunned, let go of his hand, and said a little unnaturally: "Okay." All right. I'm not joking with you anymore. Hurry up and pack up. ”
At this moment, Yanxiang remembered that the jade pendant was stolen, and immediately pulled down his face: "Senior brother, you wait for me." I'll go and ask Sister Shen for the jade pendant back. ”
Chu Tiankuo looked at her suspiciously, and asked with a smile: "Jade pendant?" What jade pendant? ”
Yanxiang said anxiously: "It's that dragon-shaped jade pendant." ”
Chu Tiankuo thought about it and smiled: "Forget it." It's just a jade pendant. Don't. Let's go. ”
Smoke shook his head: "No." I must bring the jade pendant back. Big brother. You're waiting for me here. I'll come when I go. ”
She said as she walked out.
Chu Tiankuo took her hand and said with a light smile: "I'll come back another day." Now there are more important things waiting for us to do. ”
Cigarette Xiang let out an 'oh', picked up his baggage and followed him out.
As soon as the two of them walked out of the door with their burdens on their backs, they ran into Shen Mei and Lily.
How can it be so coincidental? Smoke couldn't help but wonder if it had been spying on the two of them.
Shen Mei asked knowingly, "Young Master Chu." Where are you going? ”
As long as there are people with eyes, they can see that the two of them are preparing to leave Shenjiazhuang.
Chu Tiankuo glanced at her lightly, only smiling silently.
Yan Xiang stepped forward with a black face, and squeezed out a false smile at Shen Mei: "Sister Shen." Give me back the jade pendant. ”
Shen Mei pretended to be confused: "Smoke." What are you talking about? How I didn't understand. ”
Yanxiang didn't want to tear his face, so he told Shen Mei. Unexpectedly, Shen Mei pretended to be garlic.
She snorted and laughed, "Sister Shen." Didn't you ask Lily to come to my room and steal it? ”
The word 'stealing' is full of sarcasm.
