homecoming

Coming out of He Xi's room, Tang Fei was always in a state of mind wandering.

You'er hurriedly stepped forward, seeing Tang Fei's absent-minded look, he asked nervously, "Master, what's the matter with you? Is it, Mr. He Xi...not good?"

"Huh?" Tang Fei was startled, looking at You'er with a blank look, "No, he's fine..." He looked up at the sky, and said, "It's getting late, let's go back."

You'er and Mo Zhu looked at each other, followed Tang Fei's footsteps and left.

The cold temperature on He Xi's lips still remained at the corner of his lips, and Tang Fei sighed inexplicably.When He Xi kissed him, he finally made it clear how he felt about her.Tang Fei didn't refuse, and he couldn't bear to refuse. When he saw He Xi's shyness and suppressed the fear in his heart and asked himself if he liked him, he didn't answer, but just gently hugged He Xi's waist and let him lie down for a while. On the bed, cover him with a quilt.He Xi was still eager to ask for an answer, but when he was a little at a loss, the maid from the Prince's Mansion came to deliver the medicine and helped him invisibly.Tang Fei fed He Xi the medicine with his own hands, but fortunately the medicine contained soothing ingredients. After drinking the medicine, He Xi fell asleep in a daze.Tang Fei sat staring at his defenseless sleeping face for half an hour, and finally sighed, but still couldn't say the "I'm sorry" hovering in his chest.He thought, at least don't hurt He Xi at this time, at least give him a chance to have a good dream.

Tang Fei never likes to be procrastinating in his work, and even more so in terms of emotions, almost to the point of being heartless.No matter who confesses in front of him, his sentence "I'm sorry I'm not interested in you" can hurt the other party completely.However, he is also doing it for their benefit in disguise. It is better to cut through the pain quickly than to procrastinate and hypocrisy. One is only hurt for a while, and the other is hurt for a lifetime.But now, facing He Xi's sickly and pale face, Tang Fei couldn't say hurtful words, let alone pretend false emotions.When did he start to worry about other people's feelings?When did he start to soften his heart?Obviously, my previous self was not like this.He put himself in a dilemma...

Walking out of the Prince's Mansion with his head down, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, and the sound of footsteps following behind him seemed to have disappeared.Turning his head to look, You'er and Mo Zhu had already stopped in their tracks, and were giving him winks in a panic, while Mo Zhu continued to pout behind him.

Tang Fei was taken aback for a moment, then turned around and saw Feng Chenying was standing beside the carriage looking at him.

Fu Wangfu.

Qin Zhao walked back and forth in the hall with some excitement and some eagerness, his eyes kept looking outside the door, as if he was waiting for something.

"My lord! My lord!" A young man dressed as a servant rushed in. Qin Zhao was more impatient than him, so he grabbed him and asked, "How is it? What did he say?"

"My lord, the person who came to see me is not a virtuous king, but a counselor in his mansion!"

"What?!" Qin Zhao was taken aback, his eyes suddenly became fierce, "He actually sent a servant to see you!"

"My lord, that lord said that the virtuous king has no time to come to the palace to attend the appointment because he is going to the palace today. However, he asked you to meet you at Mingling in the eastern suburbs at noon tomorrow."

"Mingling?" A trace of doubt flashed in Qin Zhao's heart, "Isn't there..." Suddenly thought of something, Qin Zhao flashed a smile in his eyes, "This king understands, go to Xianwang's mansion to answer, and go to the appointment tomorrow on time .”

"Yes, my lord." The servant took the order and left.

The impression Qin Zhao gave to the world was that he was cowardly, timid in doing things, even trembling when speaking to the saint, and would only follow behind his fifth younger brother Qin Yan's ass to flatter all day long.Among the many princes, he is the least powerful and the least threatening one.But who knew that he, the King of Fortune who was looked down upon by his brothers, had a lot of ambitions?Now the succession of the king has been killed, and the prince's party has lost power for a long time. The fourth brother is a general, but unfortunately he is too stubborn. After being sent to guard the border, he has been obediently staying there, without the emperor's order Absolutely dare not enter Beijing, let alone a rebellion?Not to mention the other younger brothers, they have no ambitions in a corner of their own fief.So now Qin Yan is the only one he can form an alliance with, as long as he joins hands with him to get rid of the kings, in the end whoever sits on the dragon chair will depend on who is more capable!

Qin Zhao smiled sinisterly, he completely lost the cowardly image of the past, his mother's family was still very powerful, and Qin Yan without her mother's backing would definitely form an alliance with him.After all the kings are wiped out by Qin Yan's hands, he will use his natal family's power to completely eradicate Qin Yan's power!When the time comes, hehehehe, the world will belong to him!

Tang Fei just stared blankly at Feng Chenying who suddenly appeared, and at the faint helpless and doting smile on the corner of his mouth.The image of him hugging Qin Yan in the carriage suddenly came to mind, followed by He Xi's tears and his cold kiss.The two scenes alternated in this way, Tang Fei only felt a dull pain in his heart, and the feeling of irritability became stronger and stronger.

Casting a cold glance at Feng Chenying, Tang Fei walked forward as if he couldn't see him.

Looking at Tang Fei who passed by him, Feng Chenying sighed silently in her heart.After giving You'er and Mo Zhu a look so that they don't have to follow, Feng Chenying turned around and followed Tang Fei.He wanted to explain to Tang Fei that the scene in the carriage today was just a misunderstanding. At that time, Qin Yan suddenly became dizzy, and he just reached out to support him.But seeing Tang Fei's indifferent eyes, he couldn't say any explanation.What Tang Fei needed was not an explanation.

Feng Chenying did not walk side by side with Tang Fei, but followed him at a distance of about five steps behind him.

Tang Fei didn't go back to Fengqi Pavilion, but walked slowly along the alleys, with his head down, wondering what he was thinking.When passing by a dilapidated small restaurant, Tang Fei stopped in his tracks.Then he looked at the dilapidated flag hanging on the wall, and stepped in.Feng Chenying followed without any hesitation.

There was no one in the tavern, too, maybe only losers and pawns would patronize such a dilapidated tavern?

"Guest officer, please sit down, oh no, no, I'll wipe the little one for you first." Maybe it's because few people come to such a dilapidated tavern, and even fewer people like Tang Fei who look like a rich man come, so the only one here The little boy seemed very enthusiastic. As soon as he saw Tang Fei, he hurried over to say hello, and then helped him wipe the stool.

"No need, I don't care." Tang Fei reached out his hand to stop him, then sat down on the dirty stool and said, "Give me the best wine here."

Xiao Er was taken aback, not daring to take Tang Fei's opinion, and hurriedly bowed his waist and said, "Yes, yes, please wait a moment, guest officer!" Turning around, he saw the tall and handsome Feng Chenying.Immediately frightened, she froze on the spot, raised her head and said in a low voice: "Guest, guest officer, you, are you here to drink?" This can't be blamed on Xiao Er, because Feng Chenying's imposing manner and appearance don't seem like she would come here A person like him who drinks in a shabby tavern should spend a lot of money in the Fanghua Building, where there are many beauties, instead of drinking a bowl of bad wine for a few pennies in this kind of tavern.

"I'm with him. We're going to the bar. You don't need to greet me here." Feng Chenying pointed to Tang Fei, and then sat across from the waiter and sat directly opposite Tang Fei.

Xiao Er obviously hasn't recovered her soul yet, but subconsciously followed Feng Chenying's words.When his figure disappeared behind the curtain, Feng Chenying heard a sentence, "Miss Boss, a fairy has come to our restaurant!"

Feng Chenying shook her head dumbfounded, then looked at Tang Fei and smiled lightly.Tang Fei turned his head aside, looking at the narrow half-open bamboo window.

"Tang Fei..." Feng Chenying said sullenly, and was about to reach out to straighten Tang Fei's head to let him look at him, when there was a sound of heavy footsteps, Feng Chenying had to withdraw her hand.

The lady who delivered the wine was the lady proprietress in the tavern, her fat body would shake even if she took a step.The proprietress carefully placed two jugs of warm wine on the table, and then placed the wine glasses that had been washed and scalded with hot water three times in front of the two of them.During this process, those squinted eyes kept turning around the faces of Feng Chenying and Tang Fei, and that chubby face was flushed.

"Miss proprietress, the side dishes are here." The waiter just now was standing behind the proprietress holding a tray.The proprietress reached out and picked up the small dishes on the tray and placed them in the middle of the table, a plate of thickly sliced ​​spiced beef and a plate full of fennel beans.

Tang Fei looked at the proprietress strangely, but the proprietress embarrassed her head and said, "I don't have anything to offer in this shop. These small dishes are all made by myself, and I'm giving them to you to try."

Tang Fei smiled at the proprietress in a friendly manner, and said politely, "Thank you."

The landlady's face was full of smiles, and her red face looked very festive.

"You're welcome, you're welcome, two guests, please use it slowly!" After saying that, he dragged Xiaoer back to the inner hall.

"Humph," Feng Chenying suddenly laughed, pointing to the two dishes of side dishes and said to Tang Fei: "Do you remember that during the Laba Festival last year, the old couple from the small stall also gave us small dishes that don't require money?" pastry?"

Tang Fei was taken aback for a moment, and then a thick piece of stewed beef was stuffed into his mouth unexpectedly. The aroma of the meat immediately overflowed, and he began to chew unconsciously.

Feng Chenying also picked up a piece of beef and tasted it slowly, but stared at Tang Fei intently.

"Experience tells us that the more ordinary the place, the better the food." Feng Chenying swallowed the meat in her mouth, and did not forget to lick the corner of her mouth with the tip of her tongue.But his eyes were firmly stuck to Tang Fei's body, as if what he swallowed was not the piece of beef, but Tang Fei.

Tang Fei's face flushed suddenly, he avoided his eyes in a panic, picked up the slightly hot wine and drank it for himself.

"I found that you really like drinking alone." Feng Chenying reached out and grabbed Tang Fei's drinking hand, looked at him firmly and said, "Isn't it good to have someone to accompany you?"

"It's very good. I don't like to drink alone, but I haven't found anyone who can drink with me after searching for more than [-] years." Tang Fei glanced at him, then withdrew his hand and drank it down.

"Could it be that you never see me in your eyes?" Feng Chenying's hands hung in the air, her voice was bitter.

"It's because I saw you that I realized that you are not that person." Tang Fei put down his glass and looked at Feng Chenying seriously, "Feng Chenying, I will leave here after two months." In fact, he He cared about Feng Chenying, this feeling was different from the feeling for He Xi.He was afraid that he cared too much and couldn't let it go anymore.That's why he carefully avoided Feng Chenying's extended hand again and again, and warned himself again and again, Tang Fei, he is not the one who can make you give up everything.

Feng Chenying trembled, and left...

"If the person who said this to you today was He Xi, would you still say that?" Feng Chenying looked deeply at Tang Fei and said.

"Why is He Xi involved?" Tang Fei looked at Feng Chenying displeasedly, "Even if He Xi said such things to me today, I would do the same..." Tang Fei was stunned, and then I can't go on.what?Will you tell him clearly?Thinking of his hesitation towards He Xi in the Prince's Mansion just now, Tang Fei was not sure again.Would he be willing to hurt He Xi?

"Can't tell, can't you?" Feng Chenying looked at him with a sneer, "Tang Fei, I really regret letting Gu Yang save him that night."

"What do you want?!" Tang Fei looked at Feng Chenying vigilantly, "Feng Chenying, I warn you, if you dare to attack He Xi again, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

Feng Chenying's face darkened, and she slapped the not-so-sturdy wooden table with her palm. With a sound of "Crossing", the table fell apart, and the cups and plates were all over the floor.

The huge noise caused the proprietress and Xiaoer in the inner hall to run out, and they were too scared to move when they saw the scene in front of them.This, is this a fight?Why did the two people who were fine just now start fighting!

Feng Chenying's face was gloomy, she clenched her fists in order to suppress the anger in her heart, and her voice was terribly cold: "Tang Fei, I promised you that if you let him go, you will never attack him again."

"Two, two guest officers! This small shop is just a small business and can't stand your troubles!" The proprietress felt sorry for the table, and was afraid that they would start fighting again if they disagreed, so she plucked up the courage to say to Feng Chenying .

With a "snap", a piece of gold was nailed into the wooden pillar beside the proprietress.The proprietress and Xiao Er were so frightened that their feet limp and sat on the ground, with their mouths wide open, they turned back and forth between the ingot of gold and Feng Chenying embedded in the column in horror.

Feng Chenying withdrew her hand and said coldly, "This is for you." After speaking, she turned and left without looking at Tang Fei.

Tang Fei sat on the stool blankly, looked at the mess and smiled wryly.If Feng Chenying's endurance was a little weaker, it wouldn't be the table that was broken, right?

Feng Chenying, who had already reached the door, stopped suddenly, but did not turn her head, and said in a low voice, "Tang Fei, today you hurt me not because of He Xi, but because of your distrust of me."

Tang Fei was shocked, looked up, Feng Chenying had already left.

Him, hurt him...?
