On the way here, Shen Qiran thought about the consequences of being late, but he didn't expect that what was waiting for him was the worst kind.

But after thinking about it, he felt that he was worrying too much—how could Shao Xing be waiting for him?He wished he could take a few glances at himself, maybe they just felt that the banquet hall was too stuffy, so they just came out to take a breath.

Uh...Although few people ran to the gate to breathe, maybe Demon King Shao just didn't take the usual path?

"Sorry, I'm late, I wasted some time when I went out." Shen Qiran stepped forward pretending to be calm, and greeted him naturally as if meeting by chance, "Why did you come out? Is the dinner still open?"

Shao Xing raised his head and stared at him silently for a while.

"I didn't go in," he said.

Shen Qiran's already stiff smile had a tendency to split instantly: "...didn't go in? Why?"

"I'm waiting for you."

"..."

After a suffocating silence, Shen Qiran finally recovered his voice: "Sorry, I, I didn't expect you to wait for me..."

"did not expect?"

Shao Xing raised his eyebrows slightly, his cold eyes glanced over Shen Qiran's face, and then moved down to the invitation card held by the young man.

"There is only one invitation card with the names of two people on it," he said. "Do you know what that means?"

"..."

... Isn't this the line of the original villain?Shao Demon King, are you playing tricks? ?

Because he felt it was too ridiculous, Shen Qiran couldn't help but have a weird expression. From Shao Xing's perspective, the person in front of him heard a big joke, and he had a mocking expression.

Shao Xing: "..."

He frowned dangerously, and his tone was cold: "My words are ridiculous?"

"No!" Shen Qiran no longer dared to refer to the original novel. After all, Bund's mother couldn't recognize the plot, and he didn't care to think about why Shao Xing would wait for him. In short, it must be right to bow his head and admit his mistake, "I'm sorry! It's so late It's all my fault! I promise, there will never be a next time."

Shao Xing stared at him, his sharp gaze made Shen Qiran feel as if he had been slashed by a blade.

After a long time, the man spoke quietly.

"If you are so reluctant to come, you can tell me directly."

In fact, when talking on the phone, he already felt that Shen Qiran didn't want to attend this banquet.

This person is obviously very keen on this kind of social occasion, but this time he lacks interest. The reason is nothing more than not wanting to stay with him.

But he didn't expect the other party to be so reluctant, and when he walked this way, it was like a punishment.Shao Xing was almost convinced that if he said "you can go back" at this time, the other party would probably be so happy that he jumped up on the spot.

"No reluctance!" Sensing Shao Xing's increasingly dangerous eyes, Shen Qiran quickly denied it.

"You haven't come home, and you haven't contacted me. I thought you didn't plan to attend this banquet, so you didn't prepare." Shen Qiran lowered her head, with an obedient appearance of honestly admitting her mistake, "And... I'm worried It will embarrass you, and it took me some time to tidy up before going out, so I came so late. I'm really sorry, next time I should confirm it with you in advance."

Most of these words were true, and Shen Qiran spoke very sincerely. After Shao Xing listened expressionlessly, his tightly knit brows finally relaxed a little.

After a while, his thin lips parted slightly, and he said in a low voice.

"No need."

Shen Qiran was startled: "What?"

"There's no need to bother to take care of it." Shao Xing glanced at the person in front of him.Even under the cover of night, this person is still radiant, and the spotless white dress complements his tall and handsome figure, and he can smell the light and elegant perfume if he gets closer.

Careful attention to detail, at least...not offensive.

It wasn't until the other party moved a little awkwardly that Shao Xing realized that he had been staring at it for too long. He immediately retracted his gaze and looked at the street lamp next to him.

"Don't worry about what other people think, just be happy with yourself."

Hearing the change in Shao Xing's tone, Shen Qiran finally heaved a sigh of relief.

"Thank you." Shen Qiran, who was relaxed as if he had experienced the rest of his life after a catastrophe, couldn't help curling his lips with a smile, "As long as you don't get angry with me, I'll be happy."

"Slick tongue." Shao Xing snorted coldly and turned the direction of the wheelchair.

"Let's go."

Seeing that the crisis has been resolved, Shen Qiran's optimistic temperament gained the upper hand again, and he even felt that attending the banquet is not a difficult thing.He had just walked a few steps beside Shao Xing when the person next to him stopped suddenly.

The cold feeling that had just dissipated came back again, Shen Qiran saw the man beside him staring at his hand for a while, and asked with a frown.

"Where's the ring?"

Shen Qiran didn't realize it for a moment: "What ring?"

Shao Xing's expression suddenly became even uglier. He didn't say anything, but tapped lightly with his hand on the armrest of the wheelchair.Shen Qiran followed his movements and saw a silver ring on the ring finger of Shao Xing's left hand, which reflected a tiny light under the street lamp.

It turned out to be a wedding ring.

……

wedding ring? !

Shen Qiran's heart skipped a beat, his hands were clean, and he didn't wear a wedding ring at all.

He really didn't forget it on purpose, because he was doing baking every day, and it was inconvenient to wear the ring, so Shen Qiran took it off and put it in the drawer. He was too anxious to go out just now, so he just forgot about it.

Seeing Shen Qiran's stiff expression, Shao Xing understood everything.

"you forgot?"

Shen Qiran nodded in shame.After taking care of it for so long before going out, he actually forgot the most important thing.

It's one thing for the two to have a bad relationship in private, but it's another thing if they don't perform well on the surface.As Shao Xing's marriage partner, attending such a formal occasion without wearing a wedding ring will definitely attract a lot of speculation and discussion, and this situation could have been avoided in the first place.

"Or... I'd better not go in." Shen Qiran was very sorry for dragging people back one after another, and said in a low voice, "Just say that I'm not feeling well, and I have to go back temporarily..."

Shao Xing looked at him silently for a while, then interrupted suddenly.

"Hand out."

Shen Qiran didn't understand, and looked up at him blankly.

Shao Xing grabbed a slender blade of grass from a nearby bush branch, weaved it into a grass ring, and repeated it plainly.

"Hand out."

Do you think you can just refuse to attend a banquet without wearing a ring on purpose?

Naive.

Shen Qiran stretched out his hand ignorantly, Shao Xing held his fingertips, the man's fingers were unbelievably cold, Shen Qiran froze for a moment, and soon realized——

Shao Xing waited outside for so long, the evening wind was bleak and the night was as cold as water, so of course his hands couldn't be warmer.

As if her heart had been pricked by a tiny needle, Shen Qiran opened her mouth, but said nothing.

He said so many words of apology just now, only now did he realize that real guilt and regret are actually very difficult to express.

Shao Xing didn't notice Shen Qiran's expression, he held Shen Qiran's left hand, and slowly pushed the blade of grass ring onto the other's ring finger.This person obviously doesn't wear rings very often, and there is no ring mark on his ring finger. Shao Xing can only use his feeling to stick the soft leaf of grass ring in the position he thinks is appropriate.

Shen Qiran watched silently, and suddenly had an illusion - if the time and place were changed, this scene... is actually a bit like exchanging rings at a wedding ceremony.

When he crossed over, the wedding ceremony was over, so he had no memory of wearing a wedding ring, and Shao Xing... no, the Shao Xing at the wedding ceremony was actually him before his rebirth. For the reborn Shao Xing, wearing a ring The memory should also be a long time ago, right?

Maybe, or a memory that I don't even want to think about again.

Shen Qiran glanced at Shao Xing carefully, but fortunately the other party didn't show any anger, he just put on the grass ring for Shen Qiran naturally, and then held his thumb and index finger on the edge of the grass leaves, with a few subtle traces As the light flickered past, Shen Qiran felt a sudden chill on his ring finger, and the originally light grass blades suddenly gained weight.

"It can last one night."

Shao Xing let go of his hand, and the straw ring originally worn on his ring finger had turned into a platinum wedding ring at some point, the style was exactly the same as the one on Shao Xing's ring finger.

"If you don't look carefully, you won't see the problem." Shao Xing said.

Shen Qiran was so astonished that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear. Although it was mentioned in the book that Shao Xing's spiritual power level was enough for him to realize physical objects, the impact of theoretical knowledge and personal experience in reality was completely different. one level.

"It's amazing." Shen Qiran rubbed the "wedding ring" and couldn't see any difference between it and the real ring at all, "Brother Shao, you are so strong! Can you materialize anything??"

The other party would be as excited as a child about things that he took for granted, Shao Xing couldn't help but look at Shen Qiran a few more times, and nodded slightly.

"Anything that isn't too big will do."

"What about living things?" Shen Qiran asked excitedly, he felt that the person in front of him was even more miraculous than a magician, "Can you conjure kittens and puppies?"

"..."

Shao Xing glanced at him silently, but didn't speak.Shen Qiran was startled, and then realized that her words were very inappropriate.

What a stupid question you are asking yourself!Even if Shao Xing, a powerhouse with SSS level of mental power, can use his mental power to materialize living creatures, he must be the kind of beast that can fight on the battlefield!I actually foolishly asked what kittens and puppies...

In the final analysis, my vision is too low, so embarrassing, I have to reflect on it.

Shen Qiran smiled embarrassedly, and quickly changed the subject: "Let's go in quickly, it's so cold outside."

Shao Xing had no objection, and the two went to the gate of the castle together, and showed the invitation card to the chief guard, who gave a military salute to the two, watched them enter the main court, and then looked away.

As soon as the figures of the two disappeared at the entrance of the main hall, several guards in front of the gate couldn't help whispering.

"Sure enough, it's the same as the rumors..."

"Yeah, really..."

They all knew that Major General Shao Xing had not been home from the military headquarters before, and he came directly from the military headquarters to attend the banquet.It is not uncommon for this kind of couple to meet at the gate of the castle and go to a banquet together, but like Major General Shao Xing, the wait is more than two hours, this is only one case...

So when that Mr. Shen appeared, they all secretly sweated for him, thinking that no matter how loving they are, there would be a storm, but they didn't know what Mr. Shen said there, Major General Shao Xing The originally gloomy face soon turned cloudy.

And it's not over yet.

Normal couples, they will go directly into the banquet hall after meeting, but these two started the Xiaobiesheng newlywed mode at the gate, chatting and holding hands in front of everyone, and then all the guards looked at it blankly. Seeing the two of them holding hands greasy and crookedly, and the love talk you and I have been talking about for a long time...

To be honest, tonight's banquet is attended by couples, Xiuxiu's love is understandable, but dog abuse is too much for this sake, isn't it?

Don't be a shark, don't be a shark, the dog is already sour and stupid.
