The Boyfriend Who I’ve Never Met - Chapter 65
The beauty stopped in front of her, turned her head to look at her, and when she suddenly spoke, Xie Tao just came back to her senses.
It was also at this time that she realized that both the family princes across the curtain across the screen, or the woman in brocade clothes and beautiful clothes who had been sitting on her left and right sides, had stood up and bowed slightly.
Xie Tao reacted, hurriedly stood up and bowed in a polite manner, pursed her lips, and said, “See the princess.”
She felt a little nervous inside, and she did not dare to look up at the princess in front of her.
This fact came too suddenly.
Wei Yun told her last night to let her come today, because Qi Ji hosted a banquet in the Bieyuan of the Hou Mansion and invited her to go with him.
But this morning Wei Yun lighted the incense, and when she asked her to come, Wei Jing seemed to have sent some news. When Wei Yun heard it, he asked her to take the car to Qiji’s Bieyuan first, and he needed to go to the palace. One trip.
Unexpectedly, not long after Xie Tao got in the carriage, she was stopped by the carriage when she was passing the downtown area.
When Xie Tao was brought here, she was still in the mist.
“What is your name?”
Zhao Shuwei looked at the girl with her head down, wearing a veil, and a pair of apricot eyes. Her lips always wore a soft smile.
“Xie Tao.”
Xie Tao replied in a low voice.
As a girl who grew up in modern society, Xie Tao hasn’t been able to get used to the so-called rites and rules of the feudal era.
But at this moment, she was already trying her best to play the cousin from Yecheng.
Fortunately, Shao Liyin also taught her some simple etiquette before.
She was instinctively wary of everyone here, and kept telling herself that she must show her composure and not cause unnecessary trouble to Wei Yun.
“Xie Tao…”
Zhao Shu gently rubbed the name, then smiled and asked, “Why does Miss Xie always wear a veil?”
At this moment, Xie Tao had no time to answer, so she heard a female voice suddenly beside her, “Perhaps she is ugly, I don’t want to see people.”
Listening to these words, Mo was a bit yin and yang strange.
Then there was a slight chuckle, and even the sons behind the curtain couldn’t help whispering.
When Xie Tao heard the sound and looked over, she saw a beautiful young woman wearing aqua-embroidered floral dress, looking up at her, her look was a bit unkind.
? ?
Xie Tao is a little unsure.
Until she saw Princess Heyu Zhao Shu, who was standing in front of her, gave her a light look. Although she was still smiling, she felt a little helpless. “Youyi, Miss Xie has not been in Yingdu for a long time, she is also the number one. Come to Meiyuan next time, with your sharp mouth, don’t offend people anymore.”
After that, Zhao Shuwei said to Xie Tao again, “Xie girl, this is Youyi, the surname is Sun, she is the daughter of Sun Yushi’s family. She has always been like this. She is always quick to talk, and she is not a bad-hearted person. , You must never take it to your heart.”
Xie Tao heard it, but suddenly remembered the words Qi Ji had said to her that day.
The daughter of Sun Yushi’s family?
Isn’t that…
Xie Tao suddenly tilted her head to look at that Sun Youyi.
Sun Youyi was listening to someone whispering on the side, faintly mentioning words such as “national teacher” like a laugh, and immediately made her look worse. When she met Xie Tao’s gaze, she became even more unwilling. Cover up your hostility.
“Minnv understands.” Xie Tao nodded gently under the gentle and smiling gaze of the princess He Yu in front of her.
But perhaps because she knew Sun Youyi’s identity at this time, she subconsciously stopped and straightened her back, and when Sun Youyi glared at her, she also glared back.
Sun Youyi was visibly stunned for a moment, and then snorted coldly.
At that time, Zhao Shuwei spoke again, still apologizing, “I stopped the girl today because my palace was abrupt, but because the girl has been here for a long time, I still only hear her name and never see her. A little curious, but you are always ill, and my palace has never been able to see you… Today, I also happened to meet the girl’s carriage, so I invited you over, thank you girl, don’t mind.”
Zhao Shuwei’s speech has always been gentle and gentle, like a stream of water, and his voice has always been soft and soft. As a golden branch, he is easy to speak and always welcomes him with a smile.
The same is true of Xie Tao at this moment.
At this moment, Xie Tao could only cast his eyes down and say that he didn’t mind.
Zhao Shuwei raised his lips and smiled again.
Suddenly she stretched out her hand and patted Xie Tao’s shoulder gently, “Miss Xie sit down, drink some hot tea, and go to the cold.”
Then she turned her head to look at the crowd again, and her voice amplified a little, “Sit down, everyone.”
After that, she withdrew her hand, supported by the maid beside her, walked up the stairs step by step, and sat down on the chair to the left of the main seat.
Or seeing that the main seat and the other seat on the right were still vacant, Zhao Shuwei hooked his finger at the maid beside him.
The maid immediately lowered her body, moved to Zhao Shuwei’s side, and whispered, “Princess?”
“Sister Helan and Sister Heyue haven’t arrived yet?” Zhao Shu asked in a low voice.
The maid lowered her eyebrows and said, “The two princesses have just arrived in the East City in their car.”
Zhao Shuwei heard the words and gave a very light “um”, with a little carelessness, and there was a lazy look between her eyebrows and eyes, but her lips with greasy lips always had a faint smile. .
In the low voice of the crowd, Zhao Shu leaned slightly on the chair, holding the armrest in one hand, and when those phoenix eyes glanced over Xie Tao who was sitting among the female guests inadvertently, her expression darkened a bit inexplicably. .
Here in Meiyuan, a group of people who seem to be chatting together are talking and laughing, Xie Tao is caught in it, and the string is always tense, not daring to relax for a moment.
At that time, when Wei Yun’s carriage was traveling all the way to the outside of the palace, when it came to Youmeng Street, the carriage was suddenly stopped.
The person here is Qi Ji’s guard-Qi Jianbai.
“Master of the National Normal University, please come up to Songhe Tower for a comment.” Qi Jianbai arched his hands.
Wei Yun lifted the curtain, and his cold white jade face showed a bit of anxiety, and his voice was cold, “Get out of the way.”
“My lord, Shi Ziye asked his subordinates to tell you that when you go to the plum garden, you will put Miss Xie on the cusp of the storm.” Qi Jianbai lowered his head and continued.
As soon as this remark came out, Wei Yun’s hand holding the curtain tightened.
After a while, Wei Yun got out of the carriage, and the casual guards drove the carriage back to the National Teacher’s House, and took Wei to the Songhe Tower.
This Songhe Tower has always been a place to drink tea. When you step into the building, you will be met with a light tea aroma.
In the Tianzi room on the second floor, Wei Yun saw Qi Ji sitting in it drinking tea.
“coming.”
When Qi Ji saw him, he put down the tea cup in his hand and raised his chin, “Come and sit down.”
“Qi Mingxu,”
At this moment, Wei Yun’s face was as sinking as water. He didn’t move, just standing there, “What do you want to do?”
Qi Ji heard the words, but said, “It should be me asking you what Wei Yanchen wants to do.”
He fixedly stared at Wei Yun for a moment, then stood up, straightened his wrinkled sleeves, walked up to Wei Yun, and said, “You can’t go to this plum garden today,”
“That’s why I have to go with my son.”
He raised his eyebrows slightly and sighed suddenly.
Wei Yun was stunned, his eyes flashed.
Qi Ji stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, “What did Sister Taotao say was that Princess Heyu was intercepted because of my invitation. I, the hostess, waited for the guests to arrive, so shouldn’t I go and look for them? ?”
“Okay, just sit here and drink tea. This time, I must bring Sister Taotao back. Don’t worry.”
As Qi Ji said, he bypassed Wei Yun and wanted to open the door to go out.
But he paused, turned his head back suddenly, and when he looked at Wei Yun’s side face, the smile deepened in his eyes. When he opened his mouth, he still sighed, “I am so impulsive to see you for the first time in years.”
From the year he knew Wei Yun, this person has been a pool of stagnant water, like a thousand-foot deep cold pool, unfathomable and cold-hearted.
This is the first time Qi Ji has seen him like a teenager who has not been immersed in the world, regardless of the rules and regulations.
But it seemed that at last, Wei Yun was tainted with a scent of fireworks that belonged to the mundane world.
It became more and more like a man of flesh and blood.
Qi Ji thought so, with a smile on his lips, he shook his head, opened the door and walked out.
For a time, only Wei Yun was left in the house.
Outside the window, there was a lot of noise from various vendors in the downtown area, as well as the voices of people coming and going.
He stood there for a long time, holding a cold copper pendant in his palm covered by his wide sleeves.
There are still several hours before she leaves here.
Wei Yun thought of this, but he never relaxed for a while.
She is not here after all, and he doesn’t know if she can deal with all the variables here for her alone.
Thinking of this, Wei Yun’s knuckles holding the copper pendant tightened again.
But he knew very well that, as Qi Ji said, if he went to the plum garden at this moment, not only would she not be able to withdraw her from the whirlpool, but she would be completely involved and become a **** that many people wanted to use.
If you want to protect Xie Tao’s safety, she can only be the cousin girl from Yecheng in the eyes of everyone outside.
It was his cousin who stayed in the care of Yingdu to repay the favor of his distant relatives.
Apart from this, there is nothing else.
He must not show that he cares too much for her in full view.
Because this is not a good thing for her.
So this time, we can only go together.
But Wei Yun sat at the table, holding the tea cup for a while, pursing his thin lips slightly, and pressing his knuckles, suddenly the tea cup in his hand broke.
The warm tea flowed down his fingers with the red blood that gushed out of the scratched bloodstains.
As soon as his knuckles were loosened, the broken tiles fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.
No matter who set the game for him in this Meiyuan Poetry Club today, and no matter what role the Princess He Yu played in it…
He noted all this.
He had been alone for a lifetime, and there was nothing in this world that could make him afraid.
But Xie Tao showed up,
She became his weakness, making him, a person who had long forgotten the word “fear”, began to relive all the frustrations of his childhood when he lost everything and lost everything after many years.
He didn’t want her to suffer any harm, and he didn’t want her to be contaminated with the slightest dirt in this world.
By now, there was only a vast abyss behind him, and there was no room left.
So he can only force himself to become stronger.
He can only climb up step by step with the tip of the knife.
And one day,
He will always let her stand in front of the people in the world,
And that day, it will never be too far away.
