Chapter 23: Open Your Heart
"What stupid thing are you talking about?" Cheng Shuiyao was dumbfounded, and couldn't guess Xiao Ji's mind for a while, "I seem to be the kind of irresponsible person?" ”
"That's not what I meant," Xiao Ji was inexplicably flustered, but he couldn't say why.
"Don't say it, I know," Cheng Shuiyao curled up her knees and looked at Xiao Ji with a smile, "Do you think that you are down now and don't want to delay me, but don't forget, you are a young and famous general, and you are the dream lover of thousands of ladies in the capital." ”
"But I'm ......" Xiao Ji thought about his current self, and it was quite difficult to speak.
"Although we are temporarily in this small border city now, according to your ability, it is not a problem to make a comeback, I believe in you." Cheng Shuiyao's eyes were very bright when she spoke, as if she had crushed thousands of stars.
"You're confident." Xiao Ji's expression was a little stunned, and then he smiled silently and took out a bracelet from his arms.
"I saw you like it before, so after I got rich, I went to customize one for you, you can take a look."
Cheng Shuiyao lowered her head in surprise, only to see Xiao Ji holding a bracelet in the shape of a jade pendant in the shape of a bowl and chopsticks, which was exactly the same as the one she had seen before.
"I'll put it on for you." Xiao Ji pulled Cheng Shui Yao's wrist and gently put it on for her.
Cheng Shuiyao looked at the delicate jade pendant, and her eyes couldn't help but be sour.
She wanted to buy this pendant since she was a food blogger, but she didn't save enough money before coming here, she thought that she had nothing to do with this thing, but she didn't expect Xiao Ji to suddenly fulfill her dream.
"Do you like it?" Xiao Ji saw that she didn't react for a long time, and she felt a little bottomless.
Cheng Shuiyao raised her eyes, although a tear flowed from the corner of her eye, the smile on her face was extraordinarily bright.
"Don't say anything else, it's my greatest luck to marry you." Cheng Shuiyao choked and spoke, and then slammed into Xiao Ji's arms.
"If you like it, it's fine." Xiao Ji breathed a sigh of relief and gently patted Cheng Shuiyao's shoulder.
Although I don't know why Cheng Shuiyao reacted so much to this thing, fortunately, she liked it.
Cheng Shuiyao sniffed, was very good at collecting her emotions, and leaned on Xiao Ji's arms to chat with each other.
"Xianggong, if one day you know that the Xiao family was framed, what will you do?" Cheng Shuiyao chatted and chatted, and then he had the idea of temptation.
"Framed? If my Xiao family was framed by others at this point now, then I would definitely not let that person have a good time. A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Xiao Ji's eyes, and he frowned and spoke.
Isn't that just what it says in the book?
Cheng Shuiyao's body stiffened for a moment, then quickly returned to normal, and said with a light smile, "Then you won't hurt the innocent, right?" ”
"This is nature," Xiao Ji looked down at Cheng Shuiyao, "Why did you suddenly ask about this?" ”
"Nothing, just curiosity." Cheng Shuiyao changed the topic with a haha, and turned to talk about something else.
A few wisps of white clouds drifted leisurely across the sky, and the light of the moon was blocked for a moment, and then it covered the land.
"If you want, let's set up a restaurant in the future." Xiao Ji's tone was steady, and just as he wanted to see Cheng Shuiyao's expression, he heard a soft snoring.
Looking sideways, Xiao Ji couldn't help but smile at Cheng Shuiyao's sleeping face.
This girl must have fallen asleep too fast.
Xiao Ji thought as she picked up Cheng Shuiyao, then returned to the inn and gently put her on the couch.
The mood that had been suppressed for a long time was finally relieved tonight, Xiao Ji felt relaxed for a while, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep on the table.
The moon is as cool as water, but under the full moonlight, not everyone has fallen asleep.
"Where the hell is the master? Why haven't you found it for so many days? Moqi sighed helplessly while knocking on the melon seeds.
They found this place all the way from the capital, but they couldn't see their master, and they didn't know where they had gone.
"They've definitely arrived here anyway, and the city isn't big, so it's not good to turn it over again." Mo Shu gave him a blank look, and spoke angrily.
If it weren't for this kid always clamoring to rest, they would have caught up with the master early in the morning.
"Hmph," Mo Qi snorted unconvinced, turned his head and lay down on the bed, "Forget it, tomorrow's things will be talked about tomorrow, and if you don't sleep, it's almost dawn." ”
"I'll let my master punish you when I turn around," Moshu saw his lazy appearance, reluctantly blew out the candle, and lay down on another bed.
The next day, it was dark.
The moment Cheng Shuiyao got up from the bed, she knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly woke up Xiao Ji.
"Xiao Ji, wake up!"
"What's wrong?" Xiao Ji opened his eyes, and his eyes were still a little hazy.
"Look at what time it is, we've slept together! The shopkeeper must think that I have run away. Cheng Shuiyao was crazy while washing up quickly.
When Xiao Ji heard this, he instantly sobered up and hurriedly cleaned himself up.
"Why did you wake up so late today?" When Xie Yin passed by their room, he was almost bumped by two people who rushed out.
"I don't have time, I'll talk to you later." Xiao Ji dropped a sentence, and then picked up Cheng Shuiyao and ran down.
When the two of them arrived at the stall, they found that there was a full group of people here.
"Don't worry, everyone, our Cheng Niangzi may have something to delay, don't be impatient, don't be impatient." The shopkeeper's voice came from the middle of the crowd, sounding too anxious to do it.
"Let's make it." Cheng Shuiyao hurriedly opened the crowd and walked in, looking at the shopkeeper embarrassedly, "I was too tired yesterday, so I got up late today." ”
"You'll be fine when you're here," the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly beckoned her to fry the noodles first.
When the diners saw the cook coming, they rushed into the shop.
Cheng Shuiyao knew that it was his own problem, and he didn't dare to delay anything, so he directly started to fry noodles.
Yesterday's fried noodles became famous, so there are many diners who come here today, and Cheng Shuiyao, who is busy, does not touch the ground.
"What kind of broken face is this!" A tall man suddenly stood up and threw his face to the side.
Everyone was shocked by this change, and they all looked at the man who spoke.
"What's wrong with this guest?" The shopkeeper hurriedly ran over, for fear that this man would ruin his business.
"Is this still called fried noodles?" The man spoke disdainfully, "I ate much better than this in the capital." ”
This...
The shopkeeper frowned, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.
He hadn't eaten fried noodles in the capital either, but he just thought Cheng Shuiyao's noodles tasted good so he invited her to come, and now he doesn't know how to persuade this guest.
"Oh? This guest, you have to speak for a reason. Cheng Shuiyao dropped the shovel and met the man's gaze directly.
