antique on the run

Looking at the lovely cherry blossoms in front of him, Sai Wei felt a sense of powerlessness.

Sure enough, he shouldn't just wander around Hanami Koji. First, he was surrounded by a group of geisha for a long time, and then he was begged by Mitsuko for a painting. He thought that as long as he didn't go to Xiaoxi's house, he wouldn't be able to touch the cherry blossoms. Knowing how to go around, I still bumped into it!

"Mr. Qingquan?"

Sakura was carrying a small bamboo basket, which contained a few silk handkerchiefs and two bouquets of flowers.Seeing Sai Wei, a slight smile appeared on her face, she stretched out her hand and brushed the broken hair on her forehead behind her ears, and said softly: "Mr. Qingquan, what a coincidence that I met you here. I just went to the market to buy something Well, you... came to see me?"

Because she was going to the market, she didn't wear a formal kimono, but a simple and loose light scarlet yukata, on which fine floral patterns were dotted with silver threads, delicate but not dazzling.She didn't wear heavy makeup on her face, and her hair was only tied in a low bun, with a silver bell attached to it, and she made a tinkling sound when she walked, which was crisp and sweet.

This kind of dress is contrary to her usual noble and gorgeous image, but looks like a delicate and charming Xiaojiabiyu, with a delicate face that has not been applied with makeup but is naturally sculpted, it is hard for any man not to be moved by it.

Seville, however, was an exception.

Undoubtedly, the cherry blossoms are beautiful, but Saiwei didn't feel his heart throbbing at all when he looked at the stunning beauty in front of him.

The appearance of another beauty suddenly appeared in his mind, that person's facial features were as exquisite as jade carvings, and his appearance was as picturesque as a painting. He had a clear appearance, but it was hard to hide the sharp aura between his eyebrows and eyes, especially those dark eyes. You seemed to fall into Shen Xing in your eyes...

Sai Wei subconsciously touched the small head of the cat in his arms, and his heart skipped a beat when he met those clear amber eyes.

Probably, that's called heartbeat.

"...Mr. Qingquan?"

Seeing Sai Wei standing there without speaking for a long time, instead teasing the cat, Sakura's complexion changed, and her delicate brows were slightly frowned.

"Ah... ah? Sorry, what did you say?" Saiwei just now had his mind full of the beauty Qi Xiao, and didn't care what Sakura was saying at all.

The smile on Sakura's face couldn't be maintained——

Is she... being ignored by Xia Chuan Qingquan!

The thing that stole his attention was actually a cat!

She was a little embarrassed, and her voice was no longer as gentle as before, and she asked again: "Ah, Mr. Qingquan, I mean, are you here to find me?"

Complaints and grievances appeared in her eyes, but more of it was a lingering affection, "Since you're here, why don't you just go to Xiaoxi's house to find me."

She is obviously a rare beauty, her every frown and smile are captivating, but Saiwei feels uncomfortable when she sees her seemingly affectionate eyes.

Saiwei covered his mouth and coughed twice. Qi Xiao, who was sleepy in his arms, opened his eyes and raised his head when he heard Sakura's words. He raised his head to look at Saiwei as if feeling something, and he saw "You think too much!" " expression.

Qi Xiao said badly in secret, and was about to remind Saiwei not to do anything against Xiachuan Qingquan's personality, but Saiwei suddenly raised his hand, "No, no, the main reason is that this little guy has been bored at home for a long time No, I just took him here for a walk."

So I didn't come to you, you really think too much.

Although Saiwei didn't say that directly, but that's what he meant.

Cherry blossoms:"……"

Qi Xiao: "..."

It's horribly honest...

How could Sakura not understand his subtext, now Sakura's smile completely collapsed, and frost climbed to the corners of her eyes and brows, although she didn't make any movements, the violent chest heaving still showed how angry she was now.

This is the first time, the first time she has been so humiliated by Xia Chuan Qingquan!

It's like the personal belongings that have always belonged to me are suddenly snatched away by others one day. Sakura has never been able to get anything with this pretty face since she was a child. Men flock to her, and she has always been the only one who discards others. Got someone else to drop her!

Especially when the guy who robbed her of a man turned out to be a cat!

She can't compare to a cat's status in Mr. Qingquan's heart!

Sakura lowered her eyes and remained silent for a long time, so long that Sai Wei felt that she was going to throw up her sleeves and leave. She suddenly raised her head again, with a smile that was almost the same as usual, revealing two charming pear holes.

The only difference is that usually there is a deliberate affection in her eyes, but now there is only a coldness in those pair of almond eyes.

She said lightly: "Ah, Mr. Qingquan, I'm sorry, it seems that I am being self-indulgent."

She gave Qi Xiao a hard look at a place where Saiwei couldn't see, then took a deep look at Saiwei, then ignored him, turned her head and walked away quickly.

"...Well, just leave like this?"

Seeing her leaving back angrily, Saiwei smacked his lips with regret.

He didn't say anything serious, why is his mental capacity so poor.

Qi Xiao who witnessed the whole process: "..."

This guy seems to be quite proud of running off girls.

He yawned a little, looked in the direction where Sakura left, and fell into deep thought.

Is it really just a coincidence that the cherry blossoms will appear here?

impossible.

Although Qi Xiao and Yinghua have only met a few times, he is probably quite accurate in seeing people. Yesterday when he went to Xiaoxi's house to look for Saiwei, Yinghua sent Saiwei to the door. At that time, she was followed by two maidservants. Girl, probably Xiaoxi's family specially arranged for her to be the top card.These two maidservants even followed her to send the guests to the door, so how could they let her go to the market alone?

What's more, Xiaoxi's house and the small road they are on are not in the same direction at all, and it seems too reluctant to say that they met by chance.

Qi Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was no emotion on the cat's face.

But no matter why Sakura appeared here, after this time, Sakura can probably sense the change in Xiachuan Qingquan's attitude towards her...

Of course Sakura noticed.

Walking on the way back to Xiaoxi's house, Sakura pursed her red lips tightly, her white hands tightly gripped the dress and then slowly loosened it.

She is really annoyed now, but at the same time, she is a little flustered.

Meeting Xia Chuan Qingquan earlier was indeed not a coincidence, on the contrary, she came here on purpose to find him.

She was originally invited to perform at the home of Second Lieutenant Zuobingwei this afternoon, but she met Masako, a geisha from Konishi's house when she was leaving the house. Masako told her that she saw Qingquan Xia Chuan on the way back. He seemed to have been here for a long time. I have been sitting on a bench near the stele to bask in the sun, and then I went to chat with the geisha of Tama's house.

God knows how shocked Sakura was when she heard that Xia Chuanqingquan came to Hanami Koji but didn't come to Xiaoxi's house, didn't come to find her!This is the first time in two years that Xia Chuan Qingquan came to Huajian Xiaolu but did not come to see her!

Sakura felt that she must have been crazy at the time, so she pretended to be sick and rejected the invitation of Second Lieutenant Zuobei, quietly took off her complicated and luxurious kimono, washed off her delicate makeup, and went out to find him with a small bamboo basket in her hand.

She pretended to meet by chance, but actually wanted to see what happened to her Qingquan-kun, so she uncharacteristically left her to chat with other geisha.

Then, when she really saw her, Xia Chuan Qingquan threw her down and trampled on her face.

That man ignored her words and lowered his head to tease the cat on his own!

Sakura hated her so much that her silver teeth were about to gnaw into pieces. Such an ugly, messy wild cat could actually take Qingquan-kun's attention away from her. This is simply a joke!

But calm down and think about it, since she was pouring tea for Xia Chuan Qingquan yesterday, she felt it. Qingquan Jun's eyes suddenly became very calm when he looked at her, and there was no love and infatuation in him, as if he was an insignificant person. people.

Was it really because she went to the general's appointments a few days ago frequently and neglected him?

No, not possible!

In the past, Xia Chuanqingquan was crazy about her, and he came to Xiaoxi's house almost every day to see her. However, because she often went to the banquets of some important people, seeing him once or twice a week was at most.At that time, he didn't show any dissatisfaction. Instead, he was overjoyed when he finally saw her, kneeling on the ground and kissing her fingertips.

Even though he wasn't so crazy anymore, he would be very excited every week when he saw her, happily showing himself the new oil painting, because he would be ecstatic with one or two compliments.

This kind of infatuated man is always the best to deal with, so in the past two years, Sakura has been eating him. She can say without exaggeration that as long as she looks at her, even if he is asked to die, he will not frown.

But since yesterday, such a man who is easy to manage seems to have changed.

Sakura frowned tightly, and angrily threw the bamboo basket in her hand to the side of the road.But after a pause, she suddenly smiled again, gently picked up the bamboo basket, dusted it and put it on her wrist again.

As the oiran of Xiaoxi's family, she runs around all kinds of men every day. She thinks she has seen countless people, but she still has the ability to judge people.For a man like Xia Chuan Qingquan, just the word "love" can overwhelm him. His indifference yesterday and today is probably because he ignored him when he went to the general before.

Sakura sighed amusedly and helplessly, men are not the same as women when they are awkward, coaxing is useless, just let it dry.

I just hope that the drying time will not be too long, and the embroidery workshop will release new kimonos in a few days, and she is still waiting for Xiachuan Qingquan's next oil painting...
