Scholar Who Walks the Night

Chapter 2 Disrespectful

? When Ming Xi came in with her Shui Qingjuan skirt, her almond-shaped eyes happened to meet the deep phoenix eyes of Mr. Li who raised her eyes. It was the man she met in the night market.

With eyes lowered and head bowed, he sat down in the lower seat after saluting in an orderly manner.

Ever since Mingxi came in, Mr. Li's eyes have been glued to her beautiful figure, so rude.

Jin Shenglie clenched his fists, called him, and raised the wine cup to toast him.

The maid next to him was busy filling it up for him, but Mr. Li covered the mouth of the wine cup, stared at Mingxi intently, and said with a smile, "I really want to taste the wine that Miss Mingxi poured, can I?"

Ming Xi was already uncomfortable being stared at by those naked eyes, and when he heard this, he didn't know how to react.

Father Jin frowned, a little displeased, "Mr. Li, you are..."

Zuo Xiang interjected immediately, "Since the young master has opened his mouth, come over and drink a glass of wine, junior Mingxi."

Mingxi didn't want to embarrass Father Jin, so he picked up the plain silver jug ​​and moved slowly to Mr. Li's side. Under his wanton eyes, he held the handle with his right hand, pressed the lid with his left, and slowly filled the wine cup.

After a brief salute, she was about to turn around and leave immediately, but Mr. Li stopped her by grabbing the corner of her skirt, and said in a very gentle voice, "I sincerely beg Miss Mingxi to marry you, will you marry me?"

Shocked, Ming Xi almost dropped the jug in his hand. This person was so violent, and he didn't even ask her if she had a lover or was engaged. It was too rude to ask her directly. Standing up, he gritted his teeth and said, "Sister Mingxi is already engaged, Mr. Li, please be careful with your words and deeds!"

Jin's father also frowned and replied, "My son loves you very much, but it's a pity that my daughter is already engaged."

Mr. Li turned a deaf ear to her, stared at her with lacquer-like eyes, and continued to ask "How is it?"

Ming Xi lowered his eyes to avoid meeting his insolent phoenix eyes, bowed again, and replied softly, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr., but the little girl has a marriage contract, so I'm very sorry."

Mr. Li still didn't let go of his hand holding her skirt, he smiled lowly, and said nonchalantly, "The man is not married and the woman is not married, just resign the engagement."

The tone is very natural.

This remark was very disrespectful, Ming Xi couldn't help raising his eyes and glaring at him, a little angrily, "Although my daughter is not a strong woman, she also knows how to stick to the end, unless the other party dislikes her, she will never withdraw from the engagement."

Hearing this, Mr. Li narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, his bloody lips curled up, and he seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "How about you stick to one end, even if it's death?"

Ming Xi looked straight into those deep phoenix eyes without fear, "Even if it's death!" he said with certainty.

Mr. Li slowly withdrew his gaze, hooked his lips and sneered twice, let go of Mingxi's skirt, stood up with his cloud silk robes on his back, leaned over and whispered in his ear, "If you reject me this time, no matter what happens in the future, Don't regret it."

After saying that, he cast a cool look at her for the last time, and then stepped out of the door.

Zuo Xiang looked at Ming Xi meaningfully for a moment, then shook his head hesitantly, and left after him.

During this period, Mother Jin kept holding Sheng Lie who wanted to go forward, and only after Father Jin sent the man and Prime Minister Zuo out, was she able to rush to Mingxi's side, grabbed her arm and asked nervously, "What did that man say to you?" , is there any threat to you?"

Ming Xi comforted with a slight smile, "It's nothing, it's just a madman's crazy words, don't pay attention to it."
