Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 426 I Want To See Him
Lanyue Tower has just served food here, Yang Qian is easy-going, and quite good at dancing, with him, the atmosphere is very active.

After drinking here for two rounds, Su Yan hurried in, raised his head to look around the room, and simply stood under the curtain and said, "The third girl is here."

The room fell silent, and several people immediately looked at Huo Jiu in unison.

When Shen Yan entered the door, she happened to meet a few pairs of gong-sized eyes.

She looked across Huo Jiu's face, and finally stopped between Xiao Huai and Yang Qian, and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, why are you looking at me like this?"

Xiao Huai cleared his throat, and Yang Qian stood up and said, "Why are you here? Have you eaten yet? Where's your sister?"

Shen Yan also glanced at Huo Jiu, then walked towards Xiao Huai: "Second Sister asked me to deliver the letter, so I'm going to go home for dinner." She handed the envelope in her hand to Xiao Huai.

Xiao Huai unfolded the letter, and the doubts on his brows quickly turned into affection, then he accepted the letter and said: "It's getting dark, Su Yan will send Miss Yan off."

Shen Yan declined and said: "No need to send, I have guards with me. You eat slowly, I will leave first."

Huo Jiu stood up immediately: "This wine is not good, I'll go down and have a look."

Suddenly everyone folded their arms and laughed.

Shen Yan's face turned red for some reason.

When I went downstairs and returned to the carriage, the curtain was suddenly pulled open: "Walk so fast, is there anyone chasing you?"

Huo Jiu stood under the car window with a calm expression.

Shen Yan focused slightly, and said: "Hurry up, we won't be able to catch dinner."

The corners of Huo Jiu's lips were raised, but he didn't say anything.

She wanted to draw the curtain, but he held it tightly and said, "I'll take you to dinner."

Shen Yan subconsciously refused: "Lonely men and widows..."

"Isn't it because of the lonely man and the widow that we dated?" He said to her, "If you were married, I wouldn't date you even if you killed me."

Shen Yan pursed her lips lightly, realizing that she couldn't say anything about him.

But even though she is not married, she is also engaged. What is the difference between this and being married?
"No, I want to go back." She still insisted.

Master Huo looked down at her, and suddenly stuffed a paper bag into her hand: "Put your stomach first."

After finishing speaking, he said something to the front of the carriage, and then the carriage turned over and he got on the horse and left the courtyard gate.

Shen Yan quickly probed: "Where is this going?"

"Tooth!"

Dental line?Are you going to sell her?

Shen Yan glanced at his back lightly, then looked down at the paper bag in her hand, it was fried chestnuts wrapped in sugar.

... Just go, it just so happens that she also has something to say to him.

Xiao Huai and the others looked at the window and said: "It seems that I won't be back today."

Everyone sighed.

He Lanzhun suddenly turned his head: "Has this kid paid the bill?"

Called them all out for dinner, and he left without paying the bill? !
But no matter what, the master has already left, and the meal is almost done, so the party will naturally come to an end.

Xiao Huai got Shen Xi's letter, and Yang Qian was already thinking about it because of Shen Xin's recent morning sickness. They went their separate ways.

The carriage that Shen Yan was sitting in kept heading south.

After passing the Nancheng Market and going east, the pedestrians gradually became less dense. Even if there were, they were all men in uniform and camp.

Everyone who saw him paid homage to Horchuuton who was on the horse, and soon he passed by a government office with a wide gate.

After walking another mile, the people on the street became less and less, and finally stopped in front of a house with big dragon cypresses planted in front of the gate.

But the stop was only to wait for the threshold to be unloaded, and then the carriage entered the door again.

Shen Yan got off the ground, and seeing the situation of the mansion, she knew it was Master Huo's mansion without asking.

Looking at it again, there are four entrances in this yard, and it is really a waste to live in such a big yard with a servant.

"What do you want for dinner? I'll make it for you." He rolled up his sleeves while talking, and stood with his waist down under the veranda.

Shen Yan hesitated: "You do?"

He raised his lips: "Guaranteed to be delicious."

Shen Yan bit her lips and said nothing.After bowing her head in silence for a while, she said, "But I'm not here for dinner, I just want to say a few words to you."

Huo Jiu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at her with folded arms.

She sighed, and said: "I heard about the dispute between your lord and Mr. Mei that day. No matter what your lord's mood is, I want to say thank you.

"But no matter what, I have a marriage contract with the Mei family, as long as this marriage contract is still alive, I can't do anything to be sorry for them.

"This is my private matter. My lord's wish, Shen Yan accepts it. In the future, I hope my lord will not be troubled by this matter."

Huo Jiu's standing body suddenly tightened.

Even at a distance of two steps, Shen Yan could still feel the coldness emanating from him.

"You mean, I'm purely self-indulgent?"

Shen Yan felt a little hurt in her heart, but she still said: "Your Excellency, you are too serious. I just think it's not suitable for etiquette."

If she was not sure about his intentions before, now she can feel a little bit about it.

How could an ordinary man bring a woman back to his house for dinner for no reason?

She really wanted to stay and share the time alone with him, and even more wanted to call him Brother Huo and enjoy the warmth he gave, but even so, she couldn't accept it.

If she pampered herself while she was still engaged to Mei Qiying, then she would be sorry to the Mei family, to the Shen family, and to Huo Jiu.

Maybe she was cowardly and incompetent, and she was reluctant to bear the fame to propose a divorce to the Mei family, but she didn't want to involve the innocent after all.

She can't ignore the situation of so many people because of her own desires.

Therefore, it is sensible to kill everything at the initial stage.

Huo Jiu stood still like a stone sculpture, until he saw the half-drooped eyelids starting to turn slightly red, he slowly lowered his arms and said, "Is that what you really think?"

She was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Huo Jiu looked at her and stopped talking.

Shen Yan just stepped on the dinner table and entered the mansion.

Shen Xi was a little surprised that she came back so early, she thought Huo Jiu would definitely seize this opportunity...

"Master Huo is in jail, Master He Lan went for a walk, and the prince has already returned to another courtyard."

After listening to the servant's report, she didn't say anything more.

After dinner, I got into Su Yan's carriage waiting outside the door, and went directly to Lu'er Hutong.

Xiao Huai had just entered the door and changed his clothes, and was standing under the veranda waiting for her.Hearing that she had arrived, he immediately greeted her outside the door.

"Didn't you say you were uncomfortable? Why are you here again?"

Raising his hand to cover her forehead, even though he said so, his hands were wrapped around her waist, with no intention of letting go.

Shen Xi's mind gradually settled down, and while taking off his cloak, he said, "I want to meet Mrs. Bi."

She felt the hand on her waist pause slightly.

Xiao Huai was puzzled: "Why?"

"Probably because he is the person I don't know the least about people who are full of Zhou."

Shen Xi walked under the curtain, turned around and glanced at him.
