A Romantic Story of a Girl from the Qin Dynasty

"Shikiya, are you in there?"

Yan Dan outside the house asked again

"Why did he come?"

Although Peng Shuanglin was confused, Shimi was also confused. He had never told anyone that he was here. Why was Yan Dan here?

There was another knock on the door outside the house.

Seeing this, Shimi had no choice but to open the door. Peng Shuanglin was a little annoyed. How could an outsider suddenly come to his pure place?

When he opened the door, he saw Yan Dan, whose expression was rarely serious, mixed with a bit of doubt.

"What are you doing here?"

Yan Dan stood at the door and looked around the shabby yard, feeling very puzzled.

"I……"

Although she didn't do anything bad, Yan Dan's sudden arrival still caught Shimi off guard. She wanted to cover up her panic, so she covered it up with a smile.

"Here, there is a fellow countryman of mine. He is old and alone, so I came to visit him."

Fellow countryman? Why have I never heard her mention it?

Yan Dan looked at Shimi with suspicion and saw that she looked a little embarrassed, obviously trying to hide something.

"I've never heard of you having a fellow countryman in Zhao State. If you know someone, why don't you take him home? You can also introduce him to me."

Yan Dan saw that this dilapidated house didn't look like anyone was living in it. He couldn't help but poke his head in to take a look inside. All he saw was a yard overgrown with weeds. Before Equation Mi could explain any more, Peng Shuanglin came over.

He put away his nervous look just now. Although he was ragged and unkempt, he was still a scholar and still had the aura of a scholar. Seeing that he was calm and unhurried, he saluted Yan Dan.

"See the Crown Prince of Yan."

Yan Dan naturally knew this person, but how could Shimi know him as a charlatan who spent all his time telling fortunes on the streets and cheating? !

"He is from your hometown?"

"Yes, Shikiya is from my hometown. She is the child of my best friend."

Yan Dan was suspicious and didn't believe it, but he didn't want to have too much communication with Peng Shuanglin. Even though Peng Shuanglin was respectful, Yan Dan felt angry in his heart. This anger came suddenly and inexplicably, but when he saw Shiya drinking and eating meat with the sloppy man in front of him, this anger became more and more swollen.

"It's getting late, you should go home."

Yan Dan no longer looked at Peng Shuanglin, but looked at Shimi, and towards the sister in front of him, there was a sparkle in his eyes, which Peng Shuanglin caught.

Now that his whereabouts were exposed, Shimi had no choice but to leave and follow Yan Dan back in order not to cause trouble to Peng Shuanglin.

On the way back, the two were silent, which made Shimi even more uneasy. She didn't know how Yan Dan knew she was at Peng Shuanglin's place, and she didn't know whether Yan Dan heard her conversation with Peng Shuanglin. Yan Dan was just walking. , walking slowly, and although he seemed to be in a leisurely mood, Shimiya knew that he had made him unhappy again.

When the two of them walked across a bridge, Yan Dan asked

"What is the Pisces jade pendant you were talking about just now?"

The gentle words were like thunder, and Shimi was so excited that all the pores in his body opened.

She was covered in cold sweat and looked at Yan Dan with fear on her face, and saw that he was smiling at her, still as gentle as jade. At this moment, it was as if everything in the world had disappeared. The original sound of water flow, birds, and wind were all gone.

The world is silent!

Did he know the existence of the Pisces Jade Pendant? Had he been hiding outside the house and eavesdropping?

Shikiya tried her best to cover up her panic, trying to hide it from the truth. Her mind was racing at this moment, looking for a suitable excuse.

"Yes, on my way here just now, I saw a jade pendant displayed in a jade shop. Seeing the unique design, it was in the shape of two fish. I was curious, so I asked my fellow countryman if he had seen it before."

I don't know if such a lame excuse can be hidden from the person in front of me, but things happened suddenly, and Shikiya really didn't know how to tell a perfect lie.

Yan Dan looked at Shimi, a little suspicious. His eyes were fixed on Shimi's eyes. Their eyes met. Although Shimi felt guilty, he still pretended to look at him calmly.

"what happened?"

Shikiya asked timidly.

"Do you like that jade pendant?"

Yan Dan waited for a while before responding.

"If you like it, I'll take you to buy it."

As he said that, he was about to walk back again, Shimi quickly grabbed him.

"No, no... I don't like it that much. I'm just curious about the style. And... that jade pendant is worth a lot of money. There's really no need to spend money on it."

There's something really strange about her behavior.

After spending several months together, Yan Dan naturally understands her, but every move she makes falls in his eyes. If there is something strange, he will definitely notice it.

"Do you really not want it? It's just a jade pendant. I can still buy it."

"no, do not want……"

Shimi grabbed Yan Dan's sleeves and shook his head in denial. Although he tried his best to cover up his panic, Shimi, who was not good at lying, still stuttered and behaved abnormally.

Yan Dan could see it but didn't point it out. Seeing her in trouble, he didn't want to force her anymore. However, Yan Dan knew one thing, that Peng Shuanglin was not Shimi's fellow villager!

The two had dinner together. During the meal, Yan Dan was still curious about Peng Shuanglin, and his intuition told him that there was a secret inside that he could not know.

"Where is your hometown? Which country is it in?"

During the dinner, Yan Dan asked another cold question, which made Shimi, who had already felt relieved and thought the matter was over, tremble again.

"What's wrong? Brother Yan Dan, you seem to be very curious about my life experience today?"

Yan Dan smiled, put down the bowl and chopsticks and looked at Shimi, his expression a little serious, even...somewhat dissatisfied. He was unhappy that Shimi had concealed and lied to him.

"I've never heard of you mentioning it, and I didn't know that the charlatan was from your hometown. Where are you... from?"

Such a pair of eyes, as if to dig out all his secrets, are like sharp blades, peering into his small abnormalities and guilty conscience. He is not the gentle and gentle Prince Yandan, but full of possessiveness, and will never allow himself to Yan Dan lied to him!

"It's...from a far away place."

Shimi did not dare to look directly at him, but looked at the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, lowered his head, and even his tone was a little weak.

"That place is too far away, and I came to Zhao country accidentally. I thought I would never see people from my hometown again, but I didn't expect that Peng Shuanglin is a friend of my relatives. Seeing that he is old and has been widowed for a long time, So I went to pay him a visit today and bring him some food for no other purpose."

Yan Dan looked at her meek look and didn't want to ask any more questions, but when she opened her mouth, she still said:

"Do you want to go to that charlatan more than to me? Because you are from the same hometown, do you want him to take care of you?"

In just one sentence, Yan Dan's possessiveness was revealed in front of the two of them. His tone didn't sound like he cared about his friends, nor did he sound like he cared about his adopted sister. It was more like... his displeasure at being robbed of something important.
