Chapter 77

Changying said a few words about business affairs, and was about to talk about the start of the ship's construction, when she looked up, she suddenly saw someone walking towards this side outside the door, she paused, and then changed the subject: "Are you engaged?" ?”

This turn was obviously too fast, Xu Lan stopped with his chopsticks, and said for a long time: "No." Then he clamped a chicken claw very slowly, and asked: "What about you?"

"Neither have I." Changying glanced at the figure behind him who was about to step through the door, and said slowly, "But I can't discuss marriage. Because my mother told my fortune before, saying that I was destined to be the lone star of the evil spirit." .”

Xu Lan stopped her movements and looked at her for a long while: "I can't believe all of this."

"I can believe this." Changying said while eating the meat, "Because my parents are indeed long gone, and I don't have any brothers or sisters. I'm too big."

Xu Lan froze again, this time very stubbornly and thoroughly, with the chopsticks in her hands in a strange posture in mid-air.

Changying still ate the food in the bowl slowly, looking normal.

This sentence is equivalent to answering his previous question about her family.

Of course, her mother didn't calculate the fate of the lone star of the evil spirit for her. Her solitary life was just a coincidence caused by many reasons.

But she needs such a reason, even if she really doesn't feel the need to deliberately express a position with him, if she doesn't let Xu Lan understand her determination not to care about other things, Su Xinrong will keep pestering her.

She is very clear about the background of the Xu family, not to mention fate, just because of her status as an orphan, they will never accept her easily.

It is obviously more dignified to let his family's sense of mission interrupt his thoughts than her blunt refusal.

"Brother Lan."

Having said that, Su Xinrong's delicate voice interrupted Xu Lan's daze at the right time.

He looked at the opposite side, then turned his head with frowned: "Why are you here?"

"Passing by." Su Xinrong looked at Changying over here, and sat down on the empty stool.

Glancing at the table, he frowned again and said, "Why do you eat these things outside? Did the cook not suit your appetite? How can such things be eaten?"

Changying raised her lips, picked out the onion and garlic without being disturbed, and placed them one by one next to the braised pork in the bowl.

"What's wrong with this, I've always liked it." Xu Lan's brows and eyes were in a trance that couldn't be concealed, and Su Zhirong's arrival obviously aggravated his impatience.

He said: "If you don't like it, you don't have to come. You should stay in your inner house at night and be your lady, right?"

Being criticized in front of Changying, Su Xinrong's face was also not good-looking: "I'm just doing it for your own good, why don't you always forget to teach me a lesson?"

"Didn't you ask for this?" Xu Lan put down her chopsticks, "Could it be that I invited you here?"

Su Xinrong's face was flushed. Seeing that Changying was still eating calmly, she gritted her teeth and turned around: "Seeing that General Shen usually has enough food and accommodation, he either invites this boss to his house for dinner, or invites that colleague , there is no reason to deliberately drag General Xu to such a place to sell miserably, right?

"Are you sure that General Xu will be kind and bully you?"

Changying raised her head: "What's none of your business?"

She rejected Xu Langui and rejected Xu Lan, she still must hate the person who deserves it.

Su Xinrong was so choked that blood was about to drip from her eyes.

Xu Lan frowned, seeing that she still wanted to say something, she stood up sullenly, got up and walked out.

Su Xinrong got up, turned her head and stared at Changying, finally gritted her teeth, she didn't dare to say anything, and followed.

Changying picked up the thick tea in the store and sipped it lightly.

There were still people coming and going in the shop, and in her peripheral vision, it was like a shadow puppet show.

Huo Rong flicked the corner of his robe and sat down beside her.

When she turned her head to look over, there was a trace of surprise on her face, and her lips parted slightly, which was a rare stupidity.

"This noodle restaurant is very busy today." Changying said.Take turns one by one?

Huo Rong didn't answer, and looked down at the table, his eyes stopped in her bowl: "Since you don't like garlic, why don't you refuse?"

The onion in the bowl was wrapped on the stewed pork belly, and Xu Lan gave it to her, but she didn't touch it.

"How do you know I don't eat garlic?" Changying was curious.They had dinner with Tan Shao at home that day, but she didn't eat together.

"I am as careful as a hair, of course I know." Huo Rong tapped the edge of the table with his fan.

Half a month of getting along with each other is in the wilderness, if you don't find some topics to talk about, wouldn't it be hard to endure?
So he not only knew that this eldest lady was actually very picky, but also knew that she was difficult to serve in terms of clothes.

"Thick-skinned." Changying said.

"Is it delicious?" He raised his eyebrows and pointed to her face.

"I think it's fine. Shall I treat you to a bowl?"

"No need. Thanks to you, I still can't hold chopsticks with my hands."

Changying laughed heartily.

With the previous lessons, although I have to be wary of this person all the time, after all, besides Wu Ma Shaoqing and the others, he is the only one who knows her past, so I still unconsciously unload a lot of unnecessary things in front of him. The camouflage, resistance and disgust seem to come more directly.

Huo Rong looked at her for a while, then looked outside the door: "The stars are good tonight, you eat late, do you want to go for a walk?"

"With you?" Changying pursed his lips.

"You can also call whoever you want."

Changying's smile was deep and cool.

Xu Lan has already paid the face money.She stood up, picked up the long sword to go.

"Shen Changying." He called her from behind.

She stopped suspiciously.

Under the shadow of the figure, there is also a dark light in his eyes: "Eat well."

Changying shuddered all over, and went out at a faster speed!
"What a coincidence! General Huo and General Shen are also meeting here to eat?"

As soon as he left the house, several loud voices came from behind him.

She turned her head to look, and it was several lieutenants from the Superintendent's Department who greeted Huo Rong.

She looked back and strode away.

Huo Rong looked at her back, then raised his lips to look at the few people in front of him: "No appointment. It's just that I have a better relationship with General Shen, so we just happened to meet."

……

Xu Lan left the noodle shop, stood under a canopy of Lingxiao flowers, turned around and asked, "Why did you chase after me?"

Su Xinrong, who followed step by step, remained silent.

"Who told you?" Xu Lan asked again.

Su Xinrong was silent for a moment, then raised her head and said: "A soldier passing by said it outside the door, and the servant girl happened to hear it and told me. But is there any difference? No matter who told it, I will come when I know it. "

"But I don't like to see people staring at me like that." Xu Lan lowered her head, frowning with a deep cold rejection, "Miss Su, you are not someone to me. You are really a stalker. Not a lady."

"Then why are you chasing Shen Changying so hard?"

Xu Lan didn't answer, but her lowered gaze became even colder.

"It can be seen that we are all the same. In the eyes of others, we are stalkers, but in our own eyes, we are all persistent. When things happen to us, we will always become noble for no reason." Su Xinrong showed a trace of stubbornness. to mock.
