Chapter 50 Once in a lifetime

"Xiang Ning!" Ling Xiao simply thought she was cute, but looking at the woman's adoring eyes and her delicate little face under the moonlight, there was an unspeakable love in his heart that slowly flowed, "Xiang Ning Ning…”

In the small, dark alley, his low, hoarse voice was as fragrant and intoxicating as wine.

When his hot breath sprayed on Zuo Xiangning's face, Zuo Xiangning suddenly woke up and pushed away the man with deep eyes in front of her with a red face.

Ling Xiao's Adam's apple rolled, he let out a breath, took her wrist and walked towards the entrance of the alley.

Zuo Xiangning hesitated and followed his footsteps.

The two of them took a carriage to East Street.

At this time, East Street was full of people.

Zuo Xiangning didn't like liveliness in her previous life and rarely went out. The last time she went to Jingyin Temple was the first time she saw such a lively scene, but today it seemed like everyone in the capital had come out, and there was almost no one around. Attracting people.

Ling Xiao carefully protected her.

As long as Zuo Xiangning seemed to like something, he would buy it all for her.

"Why did you buy so many things? I just took a look." Zuo Xiangning was afraid that he couldn't hear her clearly, so she leaned into his ear and said.

"If you don't like it after you buy it, reward it." Ling Xiao said with a smile.

Ling Xiao's outstanding appearance and gentle manner always attract passers-by to take a second look at him.

"Why don't you also put on a face scarf or a mask? If others recognize you, it will have a bad influence on you." Zuo Xiangning thought of his identity and moved a few steps to the side, wanting to stay away from him, "How about you Go to Fuxiang Restaurant and wait for me first, I will come over to find you in a while."

"I'm not even afraid. What are you afraid of wearing a veil?" Ling Xiao walked up to her and smiled down at her, "How about you take off the veil too?"

Zuo Xiangning stared at him and said angrily: "I don't dare."

"The Crown Prince?" Suddenly a man's voice sounded beside them, "Brother Li just said it seemed to be the Crown Prince, and I said he was wrong."

Zuo Xiangning's face froze, and she knew that the person coming was Gu Zhiqing without turning around.

It’s true that the more you annoy someone, the more likely you are to meet someone.

Ling Xiao saw her frowning and stood in front of Zuo Xiangning hurriedly and calmly, "Master Gu, what a coincidence."

There was a playful smile on Gu Zhiqing's face, "There are lantern riddles at Wangyue Tower today. Would you like to go shopping together, Prince?"

"It's inconvenient for me to come here with my family today." Ling Xiao refused directly.

"Then you go about your business first. Let's get together another day." Gu Zhiqing and the others hugged Ling Xiao and walked in the opposite direction.

From the corner of Zuo Xiangning's eyes, she looked at Gu Zhiqing, who was dressed in white, and couldn't help but snorted coldly.

Tiantian makes it seem like he is an immortal, but in fact he is the most filthy and filthy person.

Ling Xiao glanced at Zuo Xiangning thoughtfully.

Zuo Xiangning was not in the mood to watch the excitement anymore, so she followed Ling Xiao directly to the private room on the second floor of Fuxiang Restaurant.

The golden and shiny large leg of lamb was brought up, and Zuo Xiangning's eyes suddenly brightened again.

Ling Xiao poured fruit wine for Zuo Xiangning, "This wine is the specialty of their restaurant. It's sweet but not intoxicating."

"Really?" Zuo Xiangning took it and took a sip. Her eyes were shining and she said, "It tastes good."

"You should drink less, this wine has a lot of stamina." Ling Xiao took out a piece of mutton with a blade and gave it to her, "The outermost layer tastes best."

"Thank you." After Zuo Xiangning finished eating, she narrowed her eyes happily, and her satisfied expression made Ling Xiao feel so soft that her heart could drip with tears.

Ling Xiao was busy helping her arrange the dishes, and the dishes in front of her were piled high.

"Aren't you hungry?" Zuo Xiangning put the food back on the plate in front of him, "You should eat quickly."

"Okay." Ling Xiao nodded and agreed: "We will go to the tower to put the Kongming lantern in a while."

"City tower? Are you crazy?" Zuo Xiangning stared wide-eyed, "Is that something others can go up to?" "With me here, what are you afraid of?" Ling Xiao saw Zuo Xiangning looking out the window at a height of five or six meters from time to time. The big rabbit lantern said: "If you like it, after your courtyard is completed, I will have someone make one for you. If you want to see it, just light it."

"I don't want it." Zuo Xiangning said with a smile: "Some things can only be seen from a distance, not up close. Once you really own it, no matter how much you like something, you will slowly lose interest."

"That person, I am a dedicated person. No matter what happens, I will always stick to my original intention." Ling Xiao looked at her and said seriously as if he was making an oath.

Zuo Xiangning felt her face gradually getting hot under Ling Xiao's burning gaze.

She lowered her head and took a sip of fruit wine and asked, "How old are you this year?"

"Twenty." Ling Xiao asked with a smile, "Would you like me to write down your birthday and birth date for you?"

"How many couples do you have?"

Ling Xiao was stunned and said unnaturally: "Don't worry, I will take care of it."

Zuo Xiangning raised her eyebrows and asked again: "Do you like her?"

Ling Xiao put down the chopsticks in his hand and said seriously: "She was given to me by my mother. It is a gift from the elders and cannot be rejected. But if you don't like it, I will send her away."

Zuo Xiangning smiled and said: "I'm just asking casually, do you like her too? Or did you like her before? But as time goes by, do you not like her as much as before?"

"What are you talking about?" Ling Xiao laughed dumbly: "How could I like her? She is just a servant of our Hou family."

Mrs. Jiang once felt that Aunt Liu was just a servant and a toy.

But this servant can sleep in the same bed as her husband and bear children for him.

Zuo Xiangning slightly raised the corners of her lips: "I don't mean anything else, I just want to tell you that no one will really be single-minded and unchangeable."

"Are you angry?" Ling Xiao asked uncertainly.

"No." Zuo Xiangning took another sip of fruit wine, "This wine is really delicious. I will bring my third brother here tomorrow."

Ling Xiao saw that she really didn't seem angry, and he felt a little uncomfortable again.

Zuo Xiangning sat by the window with a wine glass, looked at the endless stream of passers-by downstairs, and asked: "It's almost the third watch, right? Why are there so many people?"

"It's rare to have such lively days in a year." Ling Xiao walked to the window and looked out with her.

Zuo Xiangning suddenly lost interest in setting off the Kongming Lanterns.

She drank all the fruit wine in her glass, stood up and said, "It's too late today, so let's go home first."

"I have people ready." Ling Xiao said, "It's not far from here. Let's go back after setting off the Kongming Lanterns."

"Okay." Zuo Xiangning couldn't bear to brush off his kindness.

Ling Xiao took her to the city wall unimpeded.

Zuo Xiangning looked at the dark blue night sky. The sky lanterns were slowly rising in front of her eyes, and the thousands of lights on the streets below the city were reflecting each other. The beautiful scene made her sigh.

"No wonder everyone wants to stand high. The scenery from this high place is really beautiful."

"If you like high places, I will let someone build a house on the highest mountain of Mingyue Mountain. You can see the city directly from there." Ling Xiao said dotingly: "If you want to see the Kongming Lantern, you can also let someone put it down at the bottom of the mountain. "

"I'm afraid I can't bear the wind and cold at that high place." Zuo Xiangning looked at him deeply with her clear black and white almond eyes, and said: "I am very grateful to the prince today. If it weren't for you, I might never see him again in my life. There is no view like this.”

Ling Xiao heard her use "you".

"As long as you want to watch it, I can watch it with you anytime."

"A good scenery, once in a lifetime, is enough." After Zuo Xiangning finished speaking, she turned around and walked down the city wall.

"Zuo Xiangning?" Ling Xiao took two steps forward, grabbed her arm, and suddenly asked, "Do you have anything to say to me?"
