MTL - Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year-Chapter 525 "marriage"? !
On the windy corridor of Qijia, two figures walked one behind the other.
Keep a fairly polite distance.
Neither Pei Yin nor Qi Xiuwei spoke first.
Let the cold wind bring the fragrance of red plums and float between the two of them.
The smell is fresh and distant.
Pei Yin hesitated for a moment and looked at Qi Xiuwei's figure in front of him.
He couldn't help but explain: "His Royal Highness the prince's headache is fake. He is trying to help me make peace. I don't want to lie to you."
Qi Xiuwei did not look back, nor did she speak for the time being.
After a moment, her calm and gentle voice came from the front with the fragrance of plum blossoms.
“I know, I can see it.”
If His Highness the Crown Prince really had a headache, why would he still have his eyes glued to Ning Ning?
He also watched her expression repeatedly, fearing that she might look angry.
Pei Yin was stunned for a moment: "I'm sorry... I did something wrong in what happened before. I don't necessarily ask for your forgiveness, but I want to apologize in person."
Qi Xiuwei finally stopped.
She had a delicate and dignified appearance, and now her demeanor naturally exuded easy-going, but also revealed a kind of alienation.
“Master Pei, do you know why I like you?”
Pei Yin shook his head.
Qi Xiuwei smiled and looked into the distance.
“It’s okay to tell you that when I was young, my grandmother forced me to enter the palace to attend Concubine Li’s birthday party. Concubine Li was a difficult person to get along with and was arrogant and domineering.”
"But she liked to watch people playing the piano. My aunt, Concubine Qi, was not favored at that time. In order to make the Qi family invincible, my grandmother asked me to take the initiative to perform music at Concubine Li's banquet."
“I refused to say anything, so I was beaten and scolded by my grandmother at home. She slapped me very cleverly, right on my earlobe and neck, and even my mother didn’t notice.”
“In the end I was brought into the palace crying, and met many people I knew, but only you...only you asked me if I was injured, and gave me a bottle of ointment that was about to be used up.”
Pei Yin remained silent.
He didn’t know what Qi Xiuwei said.
As a forbidden soldier, it is his duty to patrol the palace.
Perhaps Qi Xiuwei's behavior was too strange at that time, which attracted his attention.
But no matter what the reason was at the time, he couldn't remember it clearly.
Over the years, he has helped many people with a little effort.
Qi Xiuwei could naturally guess it, so she pursed her lips and smiled.
“At that time, my father was busy with official affairs and was often away from home. My mother was gentle and weak in character and could not protect me, and my grandmother was forcing me.”
“I often feel that life is bleak and I have never accepted kindness from others. You are the first stranger who makes me feel warm.”
At this point, she lowered her head: "So, can you imagine how I feel when I am misunderstood and distrusted by you again and again?"
"I know, when you first discovered that the person you corresponded with was not Ning Ning, but me, did you feel disappointed for a moment?"
Pei Yin answered quickly this time: "No."
Qi Xiuwei smiled, as if she didn't care what the answer was.
She has developed a strong heart to protect herself.
“You want to explain to me, and you want to say sorry to me face to face. It’s not what you really think. You just feel guilty for me, right?”
Pei Yin did not deny it, his eyes were complicated.
“I did something wrong and I deserve to apologize.”
"But you are doing this to make you feel better. If I don't accept it, you will keep thinking about it. Isn't it for yourself?"
Pei Yin was shocked.
Qi Xiuwei looked at the sky again, her tone as calm as the thin silky clouds.
“It’s not you I forgive, it’s myself who was hurt by you in the past.”
“Master Pei, don’t worry, I won’t blame you.”
"I know that the fate between people is determined. We are not destined, but I still thank you for giving me a comforting inquiry when I needed your care the most."
After she finished speaking, she blessed her body and turned to leave.
Pei Yin stood there, looking at her back, unable to regain his senses for a long time.
Mo Lingwei was almost "resting", so Shen Ningning planned to leave with him.
When the two of them walked to the door, they didn't see Pei Yin.
The prince's personal guard told Mo Lingwei: "Master Pei left half a stick of incense before, and asked me to bring a message to His Highness. Thank you to His Highness the Crown Prince and the princess for their help. He has already figured it out." Shen Ningning blinked her round eyes and turned back. Look.
I saw Qi Xiuwei supporting Mrs. Qi, standing at the door with a smile and waving her hands.
You made it clear so quickly?
It was Xiaowei who said something that made both of them let go.
Shen Ningning didn't know and didn't ask anything about it later.
On the way back to the carriage, the girl held her chin in her hands and sighed repeatedly.
Mo Lingwei sneered: "Didn't you say you want to respect Qi Xiuwei? Why do you still feel it's a pity?"
"I feel sorry for her. No wonder it is said in the storybook that men are so heartless. Pei Yin has corresponded with her for so many years. It stands to reason that they are already good friends who talk about everything. But what happened, he still doesn't believe Xiaowei. How sad she must be."
"You can't blame Pei Yin for this. If you hadn't told me your plan in advance, I wouldn't have been able to tell that Qi Xiuwei was a fake betrayal."
Shen Ningning suddenly stood up and looked at him angrily with her beautiful black eyes.
"What if one day I am like Xiaowei and don't seem to have a brother anymore?"
"I don't agree." Mo Lingwei answered without thinking, even frowning.
“It’s useless if you don’t agree. What if there are secrets that are hard to tell and it’s not convenient to tell them at that time, so we have to leave?”
Mo Lingwei really thought seriously.
After a while, he said: "I will not be like Pei Yin. If you make a mistake, I will accompany you until the end."
Shen Ningning was stunned and burst into laughter: "That's so ridiculous!"
"It's nothing ridiculous. Life is not what you want. As long as you are happy, I will accompany you." Mo Lingwei said it very seriously, not joking at all.
On the contrary, Shen Ningning was stunned.
She didn’t know why, but every time she saw Mo Lingwei’s thin eyes looking at her intently, she would blush.
The girl looked away shyly and coughed twice.
“I’m just joking, brother, don’t take it seriously.”
Mo Lingwei turned around and smiled, with a touch of endearment in his eyes.
"No matter what happens, you have to tell me and don't hide it."
“Then you too!”
"Okay, I promise you." After Mo Lingwei said that, he picked up the curtain and looked at the jewelry shop.
He stopped the carriage and pulled Shen Ningning down.
“Why are you buying me something again?” The girl was helpless.
Mo Lingwei narrowed his eyes: "Didn't Prime Minister Xie say that Feng Qiwu earrings are not suitable? I will buy you suitable ones."
Let’s see if he has any other reasons for refusing to let Shen Ningning wear what he gave her.
Arrived at the shop.
Mo Lingwei went directly to look at the most expensive shelf.
The earrings and jewelry above are sparkling, gorgeous and elegant.
The prince waved his hand: "I want them all."
Shen Ningning's eyes widened: "No! This is too much. I can't wear another pair every day for a month."
"Besides, how much will this cost? The emperor's uncle said before that my brother's East Palace was extravagant and wasteful, so he cut the cost in half for you. Have you forgotten?"
Mo Lingwei was moved in his heart.
Is she saving money for him?
Hence, even his tone became a little gentler.
"I have plenty of money, but he doesn't know it. Don't worry about buying it. I'm willing to give it to you."
While they were pushing each other at the door, the shop assistant came over quickly.
“Ouch! It seems that the two distinguished guests are in love. Which one is better? Do you want to buy jewelry for the wedding, or give it to someone for their birthday?”
Shen Ningning's face suddenly turned as red as a ripe cherry.
Her eyes widened even more.
Most of the people in the capital have seen her before. Is this guy new here?
Mo Lingwei smiled and spoke in shock.
“For marriage.”
When he said this, Xu Jingxi happened to come in and heard him.
Laba Festival, little kids, don’t worry. After Laba Festival, it’s New Year. Do you want to eat Laba porridge or dumplings today?
