Chapter 221: Knowingly asked
Under such circumstances, the senior brother was still silent. The smoke incense felt extremely sad, and felt that there was a fire in my heart that burned all at once.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Congratulations." Big brother. “
Chu Tiankuo's body stiffened suddenly, standing like an ice sculpture, exuding a cold aura all over his body.
When Shui Mai heard the words of the incense, the ghost envoy glanced up at Chu Tiankuo, only to see that his lips were pursed, and even his two eyebrows were flat and there was no wave.
With her understanding of Chu Tiankuo, in such a situation, being expressionless is a grievance.
It turned out that it was just put forward by the godmother on her own initiative.
Her heart was sour for no reason, and it was extremely unpleasant in an instant.
How could she be so stupid. She naively thought that Chu Tiankuo would really want to marry her.
Her expression kept changing, and the original crimson gradually turned pale. It was a surprise in his eyes, but it quickly turned into a light of surprise.
She avoided everyone's gaze and left in a panic.
Yan Xiang glared at Chu Tiankuo with grievance, annoyance and anger, and then left.
Lan Aya Yu sighed in an inaudible voice, glanced at Chu Tiankuo helplessly, and chased him out.
Even Lin Xiaoman had a gloomy expression.
The reaction of everyone made Mrs. Lin completely stunned in place.
What's going on?
She couldn't help but wonder, could it be that she had made a mistake in the Mandarin Duck score?
She secretly blamed herself for being old and foolish, and acting hastily. Previously, if I didn't understand the situation, I went to talk to Dongfanghong about the matchmaker, and I had already suffered a loss. I made a mistake once, and I actually came back a second time.
Today's incident made her mess up again.
She heard Shui Mai admit this marriage with her own ears, so the problem was Chu Tiankuo. It seems that she has to talk to Chu Tiankuo about it.
Mrs. Lin called Chu Tiankuo to her room alone, lowered her voice and said, "Master Chu, it's all my fault for being confused. The marriage was announced without your consent in advance. Do you disagree with this marriage? ”
Chu Tiankuo's eyes looked through the window at a pot of peony flowers that bloomed to the extreme. The peony flowers are swaying in the wind, and under the backdrop of green leaves, they look even more charming and charming.
The remnants of the red began to spit out the fang, and the good name is called the King of Flowers. Boasting of the unparalleled beauty in the world, the first fragrance in the independent world.
The scene in front of him made his heart tremble and he was sad.
Peony blossoms, extreme and decaying.
He understands better than anyone else that Shui Mai has been in the boudoir for many years, and has rejected countless princes and grandsons, martial arts heroes, just to wait for him.
He didn't know how sad he would be if he said no.
He couldn't say anything.
"Young Master Chu. You're making a statement. If you don't agree, I'm going to match her with Dongfanghong. Mrs. Lin sighed lowly and looked at him helplessly.
The face was anxious and expectant, and the eyes showed a look of longing.
Chu Tiankuo's mind flashed with smoke and mournful eyes. He was determined to refuse, and the words just came to his lips.
He looked through the window and saw a familiar figure approaching the room. He fixed his eyes and saw that the person who came was none other than the water vein.
He saw a pair of autumn eyes in the water vein, and he looked like he wanted to cry. At that moment, his heart softened. I can't say anything about refusal.
Originally, what he wanted to say was: As long as she can be happy, I bless her.
And what he said became: "It's all up to the lady." ”
When Mrs. Lin heard this, her hanging heart fell to the ground, and she smiled from ear to ear: "That's good." I'm still worried about your opposition to this business. ”
'Boom. Boom. Boom. There was a knock at the door.
"Please come in." Mrs. Lin opened her mouth and said.
The door creaked open, and the water vein walked in.
She saw Chu Tiankuo obviously stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting him to appear here.
With a bleak smile on her face, she hurriedly said, "Godmother, you talk." I'll come over later. ”
Chu Tiankuo was stunned for a moment, a wooden expression appeared on his face, and his lips moved, but he did not make a sound.
Mrs. Lin glanced at them meaningfully and smiled kindly: "Shui Mai, you came just in time." Just now, I asked Gongzi Chu. He agreed to the marriage. So, you two talk, I have other things to do. ”
"Godmother, I'm ......" Shui Mai's face blushed and whispered.
Mrs. Lin pulled the back of Shui Mai's hand, patted it lovingly, and left without saying anything.
She opened the door, turned around again, and raised her hand to gently close the door. Suddenly, I saw a figure, hiding, as if it was Xiao Man. She looked again, and the man was gone.
Perhaps, she thought, she was mistaken.
After Mrs. Lin left, the two people in the room stood in place.
Chu Tiankuo's eyes fell on the window, and he looked helplessly at the peony flowers in the courtyard outside the window.
Shui Wei lowered his head, raised his head slightly from time to time, and looked at him secretly. However, he found that he had never looked at her.
A kind of restraint, a kind of discomfort, as if the man and woman have become dumb.
Just now, Shui Mai heard his godmother say that Chu Tiankuo agreed to the marriage. However, she clearly saw the helplessness and pain in his eyes.
She struggled in her heart. She was going to explain this matter to her godmother and make clear her intention to withdraw from the marriage.
However, listening to the godmother, he did not deny the marriage.
She retreated again.
It was very quiet in the house.
Both were silent.
Chu Tiankuo's eyes were always looking out of the window in a daze. She also seemed to hear him sighing under his breath.
Shui Mai understands that in his heart, she is just his confidant. He only has friendship with her, not the slightest affection between men and women.
One street lamp falls in love with another street lamp across the street. But she just waited quietly for him across the street. Sometimes it's two streetlights that look at each other all day, but they don't even say hello to each other. But come to think of it, wouldn't it be nice to keep an unchanging watch than the people on the street in the middle? For the rest of his life, he never took a step closer to her. Although, it is never far away.
Time seemed to stand still.
Shui Mai pondered for a long time, and said with difficulty: "Tiankuo, I want to ask you again, the person you really love is Yanxiang, right?" ”
She had asked him this. When she first opened her mouth to ask for a divorce. She remembered his expression at the time, and he didn't answer stiffly, not even a hint of shaking his head or nodding his head.
At that time, she was just guessing, not very sure. And now, she already knows it.
She asked so knowingly, just to lead the topic.
Whether Chu Tiankuo admits it or not, he loves cigarettes. She had already made up her mind that she would get out of the marriage.
She loved him, so she was willing to fulfill him.
Shui Vein's big watery eyes were shining brightly.
At this time, Chu Tiankuo's mind kept showing annoyance, anger and resentment, as if he was forced to nod his head.
