The Red Mansion's Traversal Raiders

"No. [-] scholar? I accept your auspicious words." Xiren looked calmly, "It's a pity that you and I both know that there are so many people in the two capitals and [-] chief secretaries, and there are more than [-] candidates in the exam alone. How difficult it is to be the No. [-] scholar , thinking about it, you also know it well."

"Even if it's more difficult to win the top prize, Jinshi can still get it..." Huang Chengqiang calmed down, not knowing who he was comforting.

"A Jinshi's sister, can they really let them go?" Xiren asked.

"My mother always loves me..." Huang Cheng finished speaking halfway, and then cut off. His mother dotes on small things, but she is always decisive in big things, and she will never let go just because he said a few nice words. He racked his brains , "At that time, I will be a Jinshi, and with my fame, my mother will no longer be able to ignore my opinion. If I plan carefully, maybe I can..."

"Look, you tried your best, but you may not be able to convince your mother to agree." Xiren asked again, "Why do you make me believe you?"

Hearing Xiren's words, Huang Cheng had a vague premonition, he hurriedly said, "Then you wait for me, wait until I convince my mother..."

Xiren shook his head and stopped Huang Cheng's next words, "Even if you tried everything possible to convince your mother, what then? I'm still born as a commoner, and having an extra Jinshi brother doesn't make me look like a lady." Talent, your mother's prejudice against me will not disappear out of thin air, in the future we will get along day and night, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will not get along, I don't know how many troubles will arise..."

"I will protect you and never let you get angry..." Huang Cheng interrupted, becoming more and more disturbed the more he listened.

"You don't understand what I mean." Xiren looked at Huang Cheng, as if looking at an ignorant child, "Since I can live a simple life, why should I force myself onto a road full of thorns? "

"But I like you, and I'd like to overcome obstacles with you..." Huang Cheng tightly clenched Xiren's sleeves.

"But, I don't like you." Xiren pulled back his sleeves little by little, and the cool and smooth satin slipped through the gap between Huang Cheng's fingers, as if this relationship that died as soon as he confessed his love, could be redeemed a little bit. I have no energy left.

Huang Cheng stared blankly at Xi Ren, as if a place in his heart had collapsed, so empty that his whole heart ached.

Xiren couldn't bear to see Huang Cheng's entire soul as if gone, she opened her mouth to comfort, but the comfort from her mouth at this time would only appear pale and ironic.

She didn't say anything after all, she lowered her head and turned to leave.

"Wait." Huang Cheng's hoarse voice was like a night owl's, but the two people present didn't notice it.

Xiren stopped, but didn't turn around, just stood quietly with his back to Huang Cheng.

Huang Cheng wanted to show a gentle smile, but he just held the corner of his mouth stiffly, "Even if it can't be a marriage, but meeting is destined, not to mention we have been together for so long... Although we can't make a decision, we should keep it at least." Think about it."

Xiren pursed his lips, and was about to say something when he heard a low voice "don't move" coming from his ear, Xiren wanted to keep still, and was about to get suspicious when he felt a hairpin being inserted carefully to her bun.

Huang Cheng looked at it quietly for a while, "It's really beautiful."

Xiren remained motionless, and heard the sound of heavy footsteps gradually receding, the corner door creaked open, and Huang Cheng left.

For a long time, Xiren raised her hand to touch the hairpin, but she didn't raise her hand after all. She let out a long sigh and forced back the little bit of regret in her heart. This was a choice she made herself. I should regret it.

There was another sound of footsteps coming from the corner gate, Xiren panicked, Huang Cheng came back again?

"It's me." Han Ning's voice came over.

"Doctor Xiao Han?" Xi Ren couldn't tell whether she was more fortunate or more disappointed, she turned to look at Han Ning, showing an impeccable smile, "It's late at night, and Doctor Xiao Han still doesn't go to rest? "

"I'll come back to get the lantern." Han Ning walked over naturally, bent down and picked up the lantern.

"Go slowly." Xi Ren said.

"The hairpin is very beautiful." Han Ning praised without a trace of fireworks, "You accepted the gift, did you misunderstand and explain it?"

"Misunderstanding, maybe it is." Xiren moved his fingers, "The hairpin is a parting gift."

"A parting gift?" Han Ning raised his eyebrows, and combined with Huang Cheng's distraught all the way, almost falling to his death when he climbed over a wall, "Did you reject him?"

"I... this..." Xiren didn't expect Han Ning to guess immediately, and she forced herself to be calm, "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

Seeing Xiren's guilty look, Han Ning didn't expose it.

Originally, Han Ning thought that Huang Cheng was only in love, but now it seems that although Xi Ren rationally refused, he was not unmoved.But looking at Huang Cheng's sky-falling appearance, he must have never noticed this, Han Ning was glad.

Han Ning thought to himself that the misunderstanding between the two of them had been resolved, and Xiren couldn't be allowed to have any more embarrassments about him, "Yesterday in the pharmacy, because I saw that Peony's intentions were not right, and brother Huang didn't mention the matter, I was afraid that brother Huang would be caught by that prostitute. Only when the woman is blinded does she speak out to provoke each other."

Xiren's mind has been spinning all night, and she is a bit dull at this moment, but she really believes it, "So that's the case, I misunderstood."

"No, it was because my words were too fierce that I made a slip of the tongue, which offended Mr. Huang and spoiled everyone's interest..." Han Ning said with a guilty expression.

"It's okay, you are also thinking of him." Xiren comforted, "Besides, his words were full of flaws, let alone you, Huang Qing and I also saw it, but you preempted it, so... ..."

Han Ning smiled understandingly, but didn't answer any more. He didn't intend to waste their rare time alone with Huang Cheng.

"Huang Cheng sneaked all the way to the backyard just now, and I was already standing here." Han Ning knew that when he and Huang Cheng quarreled just now, although he deliberately lowered his voice, since Xiren was alarmed later, the last few words probably I was heard, and I didn't hide it at the moment.

Rather than waiting until tomorrow when Xiren calms down and sorts out what happened that night, and find out what he did, it is better to admit it early in the morning, and explain it while Xiren's defense is weaker, so that he can pay off a little bit. wish.

Xiren regained her senses. When Han Ning mentioned it, she also thought of hearing the content of the two people's quarrel before going out, "Let me remind you, this is the backyard."

Han Ning stroked the bamboo pole hanging the lantern with his fingers, "Of course I know, you live in this backyard."

"Doctor Xiao Han, you..." Xiren shook his head in his heart, she must have misunderstood.A Huang Cheng is here to express his heart, so do we have to interpret other people as such?That would make her think too highly of herself.

"Sorry, we met again yesterday, and I lied to you about one thing." Han Ning looked deeply at Xiren, "You asked me why I left my family business in the capital, traveled around, and suffered from this upheaval. In itself, it’s not like that.”

"It doesn't matter." Xiren was not angry when he heard this, since it was a private matter after all.

"Your family disappeared out of thin air back then. I waited for half a year. Your uncle renovated your house upside down. Since your family never showed up again, I knew you were really not in the capital." Han Ning paused, like It is recalling the scene at that time.

"At that time we left in a hurry..." Xiren felt a little guilty. He left without saying goodbye at that time, which was really not very authentic.

"At that time, I was thinking of someone, and I visited her shop every day, trying to please her mother and elder brother, and proposed marriage to her mother only after she redeemed herself and left the house, but I didn't expect her to disappear all of a sudden. I knew she must be What disaster happened, so I didn't dare to leave a trace. I waited for half a year and didn't see her appear, knowing that this enemy's family is powerful, so she dared not act rashly."

"I know that with her prudence, as soon as the enemy family becomes stronger, she will not take the risk of appearing in the capital."

"I decided to go out of Beijing to find her."

"From the Yanyu Jiangnan to the Tianshan Mountains beyond the Great Wall, I have been to all the places she might go more than once. No, nowhere! I thought I would never see her again in this life, but the heavens have mercy, and finally let her go again. Appeared in front of me once."

"However, when I saw her again, I didn't dare to speak out. Two years is too long, and more than 600 days and nights are enough to make anything happen. Did she like someone else, was she engaged, or even... ...have you forgotten me?"

"I think everyone has been found, don't worry, everything can start all over again. But I forget what a wonderful girl she has grown up to be, and I am not the only boy who misses her. When I know that I am ahead of others, jealousy almost kills me My heart has been eaten through!"

"Fortunately, she didn't agree. Fortunately, I still have a chance."

Han Ning's eloquent voice stopped, and he looked at Xiren tenderly.

Hearing the whole story of Xiren, the whole person was a little stunned.She couldn't imagine that someone would wait for her so silently and affectionately when she didn't know it.

But for the past two years, Xiren has not felt it, and she deserves this feeling.

However, before Xiren opened his mouth to refuse, Han Ning seemed to have guessed what she was going to say, put his index finger gently on her lips, and softly hissed, "Don't rush to refuse me, Xiren, look For the sake of these two years, at least give me a chance."

Xiren stared blankly at Han Ning's eyes that were close at hand, clear and affectionate, with her small reflection in them.

The gentle touch under his fingers made Han Ning almost uncontrollable, he sighed softly, and sent her back to the boudoir, standing still at her door, "Sleep well, I can wait for two years." Wrapped up in a short shawl, there is no rush for this night. Or "The author has something to say: the third
