Quick Wear: The paranoid beauty grabs the waist and spoils her

After asking this question, Pei Jinchen looked at Nan Xiang, put his hands on his thighs under the table, and his troubled heart gradually calmed down.

Pei Jinchen realized that he seemed to have asked a stupid question.

He is an actor who has performed all over the country with his master in the past few years. It was only after his master came to Xucheng in March last year and bought Jingyuan that their troupe settled down.

So if she had heard my play before, she must know me.

Pei Jinchen smiled and looked into Nan Xiang's eyes. He couldn't remember whose eyes they belonged to at first, but in the depths of those cold eyes, Pei Jinchen felt sharpness and indifference, the kind of indifference towards life and death.

Although the woman was wearing a gray-brown dress and pants and looked gentle and harmless, Pei Jinchen could see a strong self-confidence and a military aura from her heroic eyes and eyebrows.

So the woman in front of him who made him curious and amazed was the young commander of the Anhui warlords, Marshal Lu, who was also the guest that the entire Jingyuan paid special attention to a month ago.

That time he felt a pair of cold and sharp eyes following him, and when the performance was over, he met that gaze.

No wonder he felt a very familiar gaze across the street this time.

It turned out to be the case.

Everyone knows that although Marshal Lu from the Anhui District is a woman, she is the most powerful and arrogant among all the warlords. Her methods are ruthless, and even her father, Marshal Lu, has to give in to her.

However, what he saw this time was different...

Pei moved his lips and was about to say something. Nan Xiang saw the change in Pei Jinchen's expression and knew that he had guessed it, so she sipped her tea slowly:

"This jasmine tea is really elegant and fragrant, just like the performance I saw at Jingyuan a month ago."

"Lu Shao..."

Before Pei Jinchen finished pronouncing the word "少", Nan Xiang raised her hand and interrupted with a chuckle:

"Now it is early summer in Haicheng. Violets are like lacquer, jasmine is like clear snow, the rippling water sends spring away, and the wind blows the grass to welcome summer. On this occasion, I met you, sir, and we can call each other friends. Mr. Pei, what do you think?"

Pei Jinchen smiled brightly, and the afterglow of the setting sun in the distance fell into his eyes, crushing the shallow tenderness:

"Okay, Miss Lu. The pomegranate flowers are as red as fire, the irises are as blue as glass, and we are lucky to meet in the clear sky and setting sun. Can we meet by the river tonight?"

Pei Jinchen picked up the teacup with his slender jade-like fingers, lowered his head and took a sip, his long sleeves covering his face.

Pei Jinchen was a little nervous.

Although he understood Nan Xiang's intention of inviting him to visit Pujiang River in Haicheng, Nan Xiang did not confirm the time.

But he set the time so directly, which was a bit abrupt.

His heart was in turmoil, he was nervous, but also had a hint of secret anticipation in his heart.

Pei Jinchen did not delve into the matter further, for he was afraid that if he did, he would get an answer that he could not bear at the moment.

"Okay." Nan Xiang watched the man finish his tea and sit properly. Her peach blossom eyes were clear and cold, but she could see the nervousness and expectation in his eyes. The joy in Nan Xiang's heart gradually grew stronger.

"but……"

Hearing these two words, Pei Jinchen's heart skipped a beat, and a huge sense of loss almost overwhelmed him.

He didn't know why.

But at that moment, he saw the tide of loss in his heart recede, and in an instant, flower seeds took root, grew and bloomed quickly, and in an instant, there was a sea of ​​joyful flowers.

"However, let's enjoy the quiet moment of this tea stall first, and meet at Liuyin Pavilion at 8 o'clock tonight. I'll go and book a room, and Mr. Pei will come directly when the time comes, and someone will take you to see me."

Liuyin Pavilion is located on the west bank of Pujiang River and is the largest teahouse in Haicheng. Different from the guesthouse and tea stall where they are now, Liuyin Pavilion has six floors and is simple and elegant. It was a place where literati in the old days liked to come here to taste tea and enjoy the scenery. Although the rule of the old dynasty has been overthrown, Liuyin Pavilion remains. Celebrities in Haicheng like to come here to listen to music and taste tea. New youth and some literati and scholars also like to come here to gather and taste tea, enjoy the scenery of Pujiang River, and express their emotions.

"Okay, thank you Miss Lu for your invitation." Pei Jinchen bowed to Nan Xiang.

Seeing this, Nan Xiang also bowed in greeting.

“It’s rare to make a friend with similar interests.”

Nan Xiang spoke these words very slowly, with a deep smile in her narrow and long almond-shaped eyes. Pei Jinchen slightly moved away, not daring to let himself get caught up in it.

There was a sudden wave in his heart. He couldn't touch love. He didn't want to end up like her...

Pei Jinchen narrowed his eyes, digesting all the negative emotions in his heart one by one, without letting anyone notice, and the smile on his face remained gentle and easy-going.

Nan Xiang paused slightly, without saying anything more, and continued to leisurely drink tea and eat snacks.

The two had a very pleasant conversation this time. Pei Jinchen waited until Nan Xiang finished her tea before leaving Zhaoji Keshe tea stall together. The two parted ways on a street.

Nan Xiang just said goodbye to Pei Jinchen with a smile, and the emotions on her face gradually subsided. She quickly calmed down and walked away with a calm expression.

Nan Xiang had only taken a few steps when she saw her adjutant Chen Ying.

Chen Ying was also dressed casually, in a slim light grey suit and a neat and tidy white shirt, looking like a gentle nobleman.

Chen Ying looked at Nan Xiang, her eyes moved slightly, and she lowered her head with a very respectful attitude, hiding the complex emotions in her eyes:

"Young Marshal."

Nan Xiang glanced at Chen Ying, said "hmm" lightly, and continued walking forward.

Chen Ying followed closely behind.

"Young Marshal, we have already found out about Li Jinan's situation. We have sent brothers to protect him secretly."

"Keep your distance and leave some space."

Chen Ying knew that Nan Xiang was asking them to be careful and not to infringe on Li Jinan's privacy.

"Brothers all know what's going on."

"Let's talk about it when we get back." Nan Xiang's pace became faster and faster, his expression still cold, looking at this prosperous city indifferently.

People were coming and going on the street, rickshaws and cars were shuttling back and forth. Although it was evening, the street was very lively, but Nan Xiang felt very lonely.

Nan Xiang looked up and watched the sun set, just like this old era which would eventually set. Tomorrow the sun would rise, and it would be a new day.

Carrying the burden alone is tiring and lonely, but it is worth it.

But maybe not in the future.

Nan Xiang unexpectedly thought of that pair of elegant and gentle peach blossom eyes.
