Chapter 23 Sauvignon Blanc 8

Wen Xiaoliu's call did not wait for anyone to respond, and the light in her eyes disappeared in an instant.

Despair came over her, and a feeling of suffocation enveloped her. A self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he slowly closed his eyes, preparing to receive the slap from Xuanxuan.

The expected pain did not appear, and she opened her eyes in surprise. A sword energy hit Xuanxuan, and the powerful force forced him to take a few steps back.

Wen Xiaoliu raised his head and looked sideways at Niao Niao, who had a solemn expression, feeling in a trance.

Seeing this, A Nian wanted to step forward, but was grabbed by Xingxuan. After he stabilized his body, he subconsciously protected Anian behind him.

[Unexpectedly, Qingshui Town still hides such a powerful person. 】

Xuanxuan's eyes were full of vigilance. This man was extremely powerful, and he didn't know whether he was an enemy or a friend.

Unlike Xuanxuan's vigilance, Niao Niao was a little confused at this time.

Over the past few hundred years, Niao Niao has just been practicing hard, and she doesn't know what level her current strength is.

Just now, she just wanted to block Xingxuan's palm force, and never thought that she would hurt him.

Wen Xiaoliu was affected by the aftershocks and fell to the ground. The look in her eyes showed disappointment, but more importantly, it was ironic that she wanted to rely on others.

Niao Niao looked at the emotion in her eyes, felt a tug in her heart for no reason, and stepped forward to help her up.

"I said, I will be someone you can always rely on." The curling voice was gentle and solemn as never before.

Wen Xiaoliu raised his head and met his worried eyes. His eyes turned red and he could no longer control his tears.

Just like an aggrieved child, when he sees a relative who can support him, his emotions burst out.

"Although you two don't have the ability to detoxify, there is always a way to suppress the spread of toxins, right? When Lao Mu's anger subsides, when will the antidote be given. Now, get out of here." He glanced at the two people at the door with a fierce look. bad.

Ah Nian wanted to say something more, but Xingxuan covered her mouth and pulled her away.

He came out this time in the name of sightseeing and secretly looking for Xiaoyao.

This person's power is unfathomable, and he cannot confront her head-on for the moment.

After the two left, Wen Xiaoliu sat by the window with dull eyes and a depressed mood.

"Xiao Liu, Shi Qi..."

Niao Niao, who wanted to plead for Ye Shiqi, met Wen Xiaoliu's cold eyes and shut up knowingly.

[Ye Shiqi, I can only help you so far. 】

The night in the small town was silent. Under the plum blossom tree, Xingxuan sat at the table with gloomy eyes.

"Master, is that man really that powerful?"

Lao Sang didn't believe that a mere Qingshui Town could have such powerful people.

Xuanxuan didn't respond. He looked at the plum blossoms and didn't know what he was thinking.

Early the next morning, Xingxuan walked to Hui Chun Hall with a few bottles of wine in a big way. The whole town knew that he was here to apologize to Lao Mu.

Wen Xiaoliu stood under the window, his eyes falling on Xingxuan, who was close brother to Lao Mu.

She only felt that the person in front of her was very scary. With his status, he could completely forget what happened yesterday, and he could even make Lao Mu happy.

"Master."

Lao Sang supported Xingxuan, who was already a little dizzy, and glared at everyone dissatisfied.

"You should apologize if you do something wrong. This is something even children understand."

Niao Niao met Xingxuan's slightly watery eyes, snorted, and responded.

Xuanxuan walked over unsteadily, bent down and saluted, "Young lady taught me a lesson, and I have learned from you."

He stumbled on his feet and reached out to hold his body that was about to fall.

The hand holding his waist paused. As a man, his waist was actually a bit thinner than that of a woman.

Xingxuan took the opportunity to put his entire body weight on Niao Niao and rest his head on her shoulder.

After a while, even breathing slowly spread on her neck. The warm breath made her stiffen, and she tilted her head to the other side in discomfort.

Wen Xiaoliu met the eyes that were asking for help, and the next second he turned his head to look at the sky, pretending not to see it.

"This is the antidote."

He stuffed a porcelain bottle into Lao Sang's arms and disappeared in a flash.

When he walked almost out of sight, he gave Niao Niao a look that said, "I'm looking forward to you."

Lao Sang took the antidote, glanced at Xuanxuan's gesture behind his back, and said, "I'm leaving first." He also disappeared.

Seeing that no one could be trusted, he looked up at the sky speechlessly. I had no choice but to support the man's weight with difficulty.

He reached out and moved Xingxuan's head away from his shoulder, smiling playfully.

[See how long you can pretend. 】

Putting one of his hands on her shoulders, she reached out to grab his hand.

The other hand wrapped around his waist and pinched him pretending to be casual.

"Oh, slippery."

Seeing that he didn't react at all, he threw him rudely on the bed.

"She looks pretty good."

Squatting beside the bed, he stretched out his hand and poked Xingxuan's face, sighing.

Not content with just poking, she stretched out her fingers to outline the outline of his face without restraint.

"Have you touched enough?" It wasn't until his curling fingers touched Xingxuan's lips that he said angrily.

Looking up, Xuanxuan still looked drunk. The majestic facial features were full of solemnity at this time, and his eyes were shining fiercely.

"Don't pretend?"

He stood up, clasping his fists with his hands, looking down at Xingxuan on the bed, and said sarcastically.

"Who are you?" Xuanxuan rubbed his eyebrows helplessly.

The warmth of the girl's fingertips still seemed to remain on his face, and he felt a strange feeling in his heart.

"I have no ill intentions towards you. What happened to Lao Mu is just about the right person and not the person."

When Xuanxuan heard Niao Niao's explanation, she didn't say whether she believed it or not. He suddenly laughed, and the indifference on his face was instantly replaced by tenderness.

To be honest, Xuanxuan looks like a gentle person to the core.

He always had a gentle and distant smile on his face, as if there were few things in the world that could stir his emotions.

But it was like he was wearing a mask, burying his true self to the deepest level. No one can get a glimpse of his true appearance.

"Tired?"

Xuanxuan's whole body trembled at the meaningless sentence. He felt strangely familiar with Niao Niao, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her before.

Her words were like a faint beam of light shining into the depths of a bottomless cave where the truth was hidden.

"What happened to Lao Mu is indeed the fault of my roommate. My name is Xuan. You are welcome to come to my wine shop for a drink in the future." Different from his usual distant smile, his smile was much more sincere at this time.

"It's easy to talk, my name is Niao Niao."

Xingxuan's emotions changed so quickly that Niao Nau couldn't keep up with his brain circuits, so he could only nod blankly.

Xingxuan looked at the dumbfounded Nou Nou, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

Such a simple person should not be from the Five Kings side. Since we are not enemies, it is better to be friends.

Opening the door, three figures fell in due to inertia. Wen Xiaoliu chuckled and quickly straightened her hat.

"Well, the weather is really nice today."

As he spoke, he looked at the sky and turned to leave. Seeing this, Chuanzi Mazi laughed and left too.

Looking sideways, Ye Shiqi stood beside the bed aggrievedly, his eyes full of loneliness.

After sending Xingxuan away, he crept closer to Ye Shiqi.

"Xiao Liu hasn't forgiven you yet?"

Ye Shiqi didn't answer, but followed Wen Xiaoliu with complicated eyes.

When Niao Niao saw that he didn't answer, he wasn't angry either. He thought to himself and said, "Do you know those two people?"

"That woman knows me." Ye Shiqi's eyes finally changed and he replied dully.

"What are you afraid of?"

"If I am discovered, I can no longer be Ye Qi. I want to always be Ye Qi."

"Everyone has their own past, you do it, and so does Xiaoliu. No matter what your identity is, you are the little beggar that Xiaoliu and I saved." Niaoxiao patiently enlightened, she hoped that Ye Shiqi's brain could turn this corner.

"Xiao Liu is also angry with herself. She gave her trust to you. If you can't do it, don't promise easily."

Ye Shiqi's eyes lit up, as if he had figured something out, he thanked Niao Nau and ran towards Wen Xiaoliu.

-

The small courtyard behind Huichun Hall was covered with red silk hangings, and several tables were piled together with some dishes on them.

Everyone's face was filled with smiles, and Chuanzi was wearing wedding clothes and toasting with wine glasses.

Xingxuan also came over carrying a few bottles of wine. He was humble and gentle, and he quickly became mingled with the people around him. The atmosphere in the courtyard became lively for a while.

"Brother, you said you were busy with something, so you came here."

When A Nian came, everyone's expressions changed, but no one had the nerve to ask her to leave.

Xingxuan noticed the awkwardness of the atmosphere, realized something, and pulled Anian to leave.

"Why are you leaving? I haven't experienced this kind of marriage before. Sit down and watch."

Haitang spread a handkerchief on the stool, and A-Nian sat down demurely.

Seeing this, Xuanxuan could only smile apologetically at a few people.

"Sister, you..."

"Who is your sister? Don't have random relationships."

Lao Mu's words were blocked by A Nian, so he had to take a sip of wine.

"Not to say……"

"Not everyone is like you, and your family has gold and silver."

Before Ah Nian could finish speaking, Niao Niao took a piece of fruit and stuffed it into her mouth, not forgetting to ridicule her.

"Bold and cunning, brother, look at her!"

Ah Nian spit out the fruit in his mouth, stood up arrogantly, and acted coquettishly towards Xingxuan.

Xingxuan met Nau Nau's teasing eyes and pulled A Nian to go with everyone.

"We still have something to do, so let's go first."

After they left, the atmosphere was still a little weird.

There seemed to be snowflakes falling in the air, and she felt a hot gaze falling on her, so she raised her head and looked in one direction.

The figure turned around and left the moment he raised his head, and his back looked a little familiar.

Xiang Liu? He stood up. His back looked a little lonely, so she subconsciously chased after him.

Perhaps deliberately, the man's pace was very slow, and Niao Niao quickly caught up with him.
