Chapter Twenty-Three: The Masquerade Game

Someone is calling me outside!

Oh no! I can't be found out, I'm gone!!

In the midst of the lightning, Yan Zhuo hurriedly dodged out of the space. As soon as the person stood still, he saw that the maid had already entered the inner room with one foot.

"Cui Shao, what's going on?!Didn't I tell anyone not to come in and disturb me?!"

Yan Zhuo's words were full of impatience, she looked straight at Cui Shao, the coldness in her tone was something that the maid Cui Shao had never seen, that compelling eyes, so burning that Cui Shao couldn't help but take a step back, retreated to the curtain where the outer room and the inner room meet, and through the curtain, she quickly knelt down.

"Miss......" Cui Shao said with a trill, "I'm sorry, Miss, it's a slave who is reckless, please forgive Miss." The slaves and maids are a little worried about the young lady, it has been a long time since noon, the young lady has not passed the meal, and there is no movement in the house, everyone is afraid that the young lady is in good health, so let the slave and the maid come in to take a look, it is the slave and the maid who broke in regardless of the rules, please, please forgive the young lady......"

Cui Shao kept kowtowing as she spoke, looking at Yan Zhuo with teary eyes, the appearance of pear blossoms with rain was pitiful, and there seemed to be countless true friendships surging in her big eyes.

Yan Zhuo looked at Cui Shao, who was kneeling on the ground, and was silent for a long time, and the room was very quiet.

After a while, Yan Zhuo put away his thoughts, walked two steps, walked to the place where Cui Shao was kneeling, coughed lightly, eased the stiff atmosphere, and slowly leaned down, actually to help Cui Shao with his own hands, and the words he said did not live up to the previous sharpness, and became soft.

"Cui Shao, good girl, get up. I miss you with a good heart, and all thoughts are also for me, so I won't care about it this time. I remember your kindness in my heart, so go and pass on lunch. ”

"Thank you, Miss Xie understands. Cui Shao didn't dare to really let Yan Zhuo help him, so he slowly stood up with Yan Zhuo's hand, his body seemed to be a little trembling, swaying like a lotus leaf beaten by the rain, his eyes showed gratitude, his eyes were also red, and he withdrew from the door after a blessing.

In an instant, lunch was served, and Yan Zhuo sat at the table, eating slowly and methodically without saying a word, as if he was serious and only the matter of eating was left in his eyes.

"Miss, do you have anything on your mind?"

"Huh?" Yan Zhuo looked up when he heard this, and saw that it was Qingdai who was looking at her with concern, and then smiled.

"Qingdai, where did you see that Miss I have something on my mind?"

"When the young lady is happy, the meal is delicious, and everyone is very happy to see it. How can you eat a mouthful of rice in three or four bites like now, and you are still absent-minded, obviously you have something on your mind!" Qing Dai pouted, her words full of concern and dissatisfaction with the inexplicable thing that made the young lady unhappy.

"Our Qingdai is smart!" listened to Qingdai's explanation, and was happy.

"Miss, what is on your mind, can you tell the slave?" Qing Dai opened her eyes wide and looked at Yan Zhuo curiously, and the eagerness in her eyes made Yan Zhuo unable to refuse. Why didn't you find out before, Qingdai is so good at pestering people?

Yan Zhuo smiled helplessly, she didn't do this for herself?!, she was a loyal girl, and she spoiled herself~

Yan Zhuo put down the dishes and chopsticks, washed his hands with the water he brought, rinsed his mouth with tea, and then slowly spoke.

"Qing Dai, what do you think of Cui Shao?"

"Emerald Tree?"

Qing Dai frowned, rolled her eyes, and thought about it seriously, "Miss Hui, this Cui Shao, although the slave maid is the same as her, she doesn't live together, because the daily affairs she is responsible for are different, and she doesn't have much contact with her, and she is not clear about being a slave and a maid." ”

Qing Dai seemed to remember something, paused, and continued: "Last year, there was a slave and maid who worked with her, and at that time I only thought that she was very shrewd, and she was very shrewd in everything, handy, and thoughtful, and the slave was very envious at that time. Moreover, on weekdays, I often hear other maids in the courtyard talk about Cuishao, saying that she is kind-hearted and often helps others, and the maids and servants in the courtyard like her very much and get along with her very well. I've heard some people say that the old lady values her very much. ”

"Oh, in that way, this green girl is really good?"

"Miss, the slave doesn't know, so she doesn't dare to jump to conclusions. Just ......"

"Qingdai, it's just the two of us here, we have something to say, but it's okay to say. ”

"Miss, the slave is not talking about others behind her back. It's just that when I was a child, the slave's father and mother once told the slave that 'everyone in the world has shortcomings' and 'no one is perfect'. Therefore, the slave maid feels that if a person is too perfect, she can make everyone like her, such a person makes the slave and maid feel unreal, not like a living person, and the slave and maid dare not have a heart to such a person. ”

Qing Dai said seriously. Yan Zhuo's eyes were bright and he looked at Qing Dai without saying a word.

"Miss, the slave has trespassed. Qing Dai saw that Yan Zhuo didn't speak, and her heart suddenly burst, I don't know if what she said made Miss unhappy. How dare you participate in the master's affairs.

Looking at Qing Dai's panicked expression, Yan Zhuo hurriedly comforted her: "Silly girl, what do you think? In your eyes, your young lady is so moody!" Yan Zhuo knocked Qing Dai's head hard, "Hiss, it hurts", Qing Dai whispered.

"Qingdai, what you said is not wrong at all. I'm glad to hear your opinion, and if you have any thoughts in the future, just say, Miss, I don't blame people for a sentence, understand?"

"Yes, miss, the slave understands. ”

"Miss, I, I just didn't expect that there was such a treasure by my side, and I was stunned for a moment when I saw that things could be so transparent. Oops, I don't know who will be cheaper in the future?"

Qing Dai's face, brushed it, like a shrimp slamming into the pot, suddenly became red, "Miss, you ......"

It's really a happy thing to tease Qingdai, this girl is very simple, one teases and one is accurate, it's so fun. Yan Zhuo was silently happy in his heart, and he was even happier to have the girl Qingdai, who only felt that the girl Qingdai was loyal in his previous life, but he didn't expect that this loyal person also had a seven-trick exquisite heart.

"Qing Dai, you pay more attention to the green tree. ”

"Miss, are you suspicious ......"

"Hmm. ”

Nine times out of ten, there is a problem with this green tree!

To be able to enter the inner chamber of Yan Zhuo without notice is not ordinary. Do you think that you can cover people's eyes and ears by using everyone as a shield? "The law does not blame the public", "The sky is falling, everyone", hehe, I really want to praise this Cui Shao's good intentions. Do you think that if the reason you come up with is for my good, you can fool me and make me no longer pursue it? Then why is there not the slightest concern and anxiety in your eyes?

Who wouldn't pretend to be?! Really when she is a three-year-old child, she is so coaxing? stupid!

Yan Zhuo kept complaining in his heart. Well, I'm afraid she forgot that she is a ten-year-old child herself, no matter who sees her, isn't she easy to coax?

But who would have known that inside this ten-year-old child, there was already a soul living a lifetime of hardships.

Maybe I really thought that Yan Zhuo, a ten-year-old doll, couldn't stand coaxing, Cui Shao's performance, although hidden, was not deep. When Yan Zhuo stepped out of the space, he clearly saw Cui Shao looking around the room while walking, not looking for someone, but observing something. When Yan Zhuo scolded her, what was the clenched fist under Cui Shao's sleeves? Was she dissatisfied? When Yan Zhuo pretended to forgive and comfort, what was the fleeting smile on the corner of her mouth? Is it because she feels proud that her plan has succeeded!

Hehe, Emerald Tree, and the other people who are hiding behind them, like to play masquerade?

Miss Ben, let's expose your masks one by one!!

Strength is the key to solving everything!

Yan Zhuo's thirst for strength has escalated again!

She closed the door again, saying that she wanted to rest and that no one should disturb her. Hey, if it weren't for the fact that there were still things to deal with at night, Yan Zhuo really wanted to practice at night, so that the environment would be quieter, and she wouldn't be afraid that someone would come in and not find her, so she would interrupt her cultivation, and there would be more time at night, which would allow her to have more insights. In contrast, cultivating during the day is really too bad, and closing the door repeatedly like this is also easy to arouse the suspicion of others.

Yan Zhuo thought about it in his heart, starting tomorrow, he would cultivate at night, and he would be fine during the day as usual.

Entering the space, Yan Zhuo took a deep breath, calmed his mind, put all the distracting thoughts in his mind for the time being, and continued to practice according to the exercises. Once cultivated, time seems to be imaginary. After a while, she was immersed in the world of cultivation and entered the realm of selflessness. The spiritual power in the body converged into a trickle, circulating along the major meridians, wrapped in a trace of warmth in the cool and warm, this feeling swept her, making her extremely comfortable and comfortable, the whole person relaxed a lot, and the fatigue of the body was also swept away, instead, the body was full of energy, making her feel refreshed, Yan Zhuo liked this feeling.

After the exercise had been running for seven hundred and forty-nine weeks, Yan Zhuo clearly felt that the spiritual power around his body had stagnated, and he seemed to have encountered an obstacle. She knew that she had touched the innate double barrier, and the critical time had come! Yan Zhuo's spirit was uplifted, and she continued to accumulate spiritual power circle after circle, constantly attacking the location of the barrier.

Once, twice...... Five, ten...... No, the accumulated aura is still too weak!

In the face of a hard barrier, Yan Zhuo was not discouraged, and with the spirit of Yugong moving mountains, he worked hard and impacted firmly. There is no one who is not tired of mountaineering, and when he sees the peak, he is about to reach the top, so how can he give up? At this moment, Yan Zhuo thought in his heart.

"Miss, Miss, are you awake?" the sound of inquiry and the knock on the door came at the same time!
