"With your words, I am very satisfied."
Song Lianzhou hugged her back and wrapped her in the night wind.
"Linglan, wait until I come back to find you. You can't lie to me this time, and don't let me find you again."
He lowered his head and placed a kiss on Shen Zhixi's forehead.
Then, he let go, turned around, walked down the steps again, and soon disappeared at the entrance of the courtyard with Wei Hong.
Shen Zhixi was still standing in the corridor, his heart swaying as the lantern on the side of his head kept swinging.
"Don't go, just listen to what I have to say."
At the other end of the courtyard, Xie Jingshi's voice sounded.
Immediately afterwards, Fang Rou's figure was seen passing behind the fan-shaped arch, and then Xie Jingshi quickly caught up with her.
Shen Zhixi silently withdrew his eyes, sighed slightly, then turned around and entered the house.
Side courtyard.
Xie Jingshi pulled Fang Rou back. This time, he was full of energy and extremely determined without any hesitation. He originally thought that his family would object to him being with Fang Rou, but Fang Rou was worried that his parents would not like her. What he said about her was also his concern.
But his mother actually told him that as long as he liked it, as long as Fang Rou was willing, she could arrange a marriage for them at any time.
Nothing makes people happier than being able to get the support of their family for the love they want.
"Mother agreed to our matter. Mother said that as long as you are willing, she has no objection to us being together." He couldn't wait to tell Fang Rou the news.
Fang Rou met his sincere eyes, and she was so heartbroken that she forgot to withdraw her hand.
"You...you compared us with Axi and the others before, but you already know what happened today. Axi's child is Song Guojiu's biological child, and he is not raising children for others. But we are different. You have to understand, I..."
"I see."
"You do not understand."
Xie Jingshi pursed his lips, but it wasn't because he was speechless.
"Maybe." He nodded slightly, his eyes still bright, "Maybe many people don't understand why I am so obsessed, and even I don't particularly understand it myself. I just want to follow my inner thoughts. Actually, I didn’t just think about being with you in a flash. I couldn’t sleep all night long, thinking about it day and night before I made up my mind. Of course I understand what I might face when I’m with you. , I may become someone else’s joke in the next ten years or even my whole life, but compared to that, I don’t want to miss you even more.”
"you……"
"I know, maybe you feel that my feelings for you came too quickly and you don't trust me, but I really don't know how to explain it. The moment I met you on the street, just that one glance, I fell in love with you. I have never fallen in love with anyone in the past twenty years of my life, but it was you who made me fall in love. If this is not fate, then what is fate?"
His eyes were so bright that the moonlight was not even half as bright as his.
Being confessed affectionately and seriously by such an extremely innocent person is probably something that not many people can really handle.
"I just went out and bought this."
Xie Jingshi took out a pink and white jade porcelain vase from his arms, which was the size of his palm. As soon as he took it out, he smelled a fragrance, which made Fang Rou feel familiar with the fragrance of flowers.
"I heard that you have been dizzy these past few days, can't sleep, get up early, and don't eat much. I think it's because the climate here in Yuejing City is different and you can't adapt to it. I went out and bought this energy It is a relaxing fragrance. Opening the lid and placing it in front of the bed at night can help you sleep. The main reason is that the floral fragrance is difficult to find. I searched for it for a long time before I came back after dark."
That kind of flower is unique to the south and cannot be grown here in Yuejing City, so it is not easy to find essence with this floral fragrance.
It's not a big thing, isn't the cuteness of a person reflected in one little thing after another?
Some people say that love is easy, but they often don't even bother to pay attention to small things.
"Arou, give me a chance to take care of you, your mother and your son. I swear that I will treat your child as my own."
Fang Rou just looked at him quietly and didn't express her position for a long time.
If what he said was true and his parents agreed to the matter between them, it sounded like there would be no obstacles, but in reality the obstacle between them was more than just the barrier of status and family.
His father, the Xie family drank human blood and ate people without spitting out their bones. How on earth did they raise such an innocent son?
Did Xie Jingshi really not know those things about his family?
She looked at Xie Jingshi for a long time, but was still speechless. She lowered her eyes and cast her gaze on the hand he handed to her. The pink and white jade porcelain bottle that broke when dropped was like him, which always made people unbearable.
"Thank you for the fragrance."
She only took the bottle without saying anything else, then turned around and left.
Xie Jingshi was startled at first, and then he wanted to pursue him again, thinking about asking for details, but then he thought about it but his lips curled up again.
He thought he understood.
Although Fang Rou didn't agree, she didn't refuse either, which meant that he still had hope if he took his time.
He didn't continue to chase her. He just waited for Fang Rou's figure to disappear and was no longer visible, then he turned around and walked out of Shi Xingyuan.
On the way back, he was filled with joy.
Stepping into his yard, the lights in the main room were dark and there was no one in the yard, but he was so immersed in joy that he didn't notice anything unusual.
In front of the main house door, when he opened the door, he was unexpectedly hit by a burst of white powder.
When he came to his senses and saw a strange man in black standing inside the door, it was too late. The white powder was thrown towards him by the strange man. It should be an extremely powerful drug, but he shook his head for a moment. , my brain started to feel dizzy.
In the end, he didn't even know how he fell.
*
Inside Shi Xingyuan.
Fang Rou sat on the edge of the bed with Shen Zhixi. The bed behind her was empty. It was already past the time when Wan Ying should go to sleep, but the bed was now empty.
In the yard, I haven't heard the sound of mandarin ducks for a long time.
"Axi, are you worried about Wanying and the others?"
Shen Zhixi lowered his eyelids and frowned tightly.
After Qi Yuan and Princess Zhaoheng left Yuejing City, she did not hesitate and left Yuanyang and Wanying out of the city's secret passage together. The secret passage was mentioned in another location, and it had been arranged and greeted in advance. It was not Chang'an's pawn shop, so everyone was crowded into one place for fear of risking exposure.
However, there are many informants around the Hou Mansion, and only one person can be secretly taken out at a time.
Wan Ying was lucky, hiding under her cloak she could easily avoid being discovered.
It's fine if you just move around the city normally, and you don't have to worry if you go out openly. Even if someone is following you, it won't be a problem, and there won't be any danger to the lives of the people around you.
But this time I was leaving the city to escape for my life, so I should be as careful as possible to avoid being discovered.
Qi Yuan disappeared after arriving at the pawnshop in Chang'an. This incident may have been an accident, but Wanying and the others went to another place and disappeared again. Of course, it can no longer be regarded as just an accident. By then, it will not only be the place where they disappeared, but also Chang'an. The pawnshop will also be suspected and vigorously searched. If the tunnel is found, the pawnshop owner will be harmed.
