Chapter 25 Are you willing to stay here and be a coward?
Xi Dazhuang was very impatient.
But Shen Ruyu never gives up until he achieves his goal.
Even if you escape today, you cannot escape tomorrow.
He remained expressionless and silent. Shen Ruyu didn't rush him, and kept smiling, with the curvature of his mouth unchanged. Chi Xi's first feeling towards this man was that he was hypocritical, and his second feeling was that he was coming with bad intentions. .
She subconsciously felt that this person was dangerous.
Just when he was about to ask Xi Dazhuang to leave, Xi Dazhuang nodded lightly, raised his eyes to look at Shen Ruyu, a trace of ridicule flashed in his eyes as dark as obsidian, and said softly: "Since you want to treat us to dinner, just lead the way."
Shen Ruyu raised her eyebrows and smiled with a real smile, and said gracefully: "Brother Xi, Madam Sister-in-law, please come this way."
On the table in the private room, there are steaming hot delicacies.
Chicken, duck, and fish are all available.
Even the wine is warm.
As soon as she sat down, Shen Ruyu poured wine for Xi Dazhuang and Chi Xi with a smile, and greeted with warm eyes: "Brother Xi, it has been three years since we said goodbye that day. How is Brother Xi doing?"
"Don't you know very well whether it's good or bad?"
Xi Dazhuang's eyes were as dark as ink, and his tone was as cold as ice, all sarcastic: "Young Master Shen is so talented, I'm afraid even Xi drank a few mouthfuls of water and ate a few mouthfuls of food on one day, and all the family treasures are known to him, right?"
Shen Ruyu put down the wine bottle, pinched her forehead and sighed quietly: "Brother Xi, you really misunderstood me. Although I came here to discuss something, I never doubted Brother Xi at all, so how could I do this?" Did you do anything sneaky like that?"
Xi Dazhuang didn't want to argue with Shen Ruyu.
This person has been like this since he was a child. He always smiles when he sees people, but he is cold in his bones. He is very calculating and ruthless. He is a smiling tiger. Now he is the most favored minister in front of the emperor. It really makes people have to beware.
Shen Ruyu didn't get angry when she saw that Xi Dazhuang didn't talk to her. She warmly greeted him: "Let's eat quickly! The weather is cold and the food will be cold if we delay any longer."
The food at Zuixianglou is really delicious.
But it's just good.
Compared with what Chi Xi made with the ingredients in the Lingquan space, it can't compare in terms of taste or freshness. Although Xi Dazhuang is a rough man, he was carefully raised by Chi Xi during this period, and he also took the food into his mouth. Already.
This meal was so delicious that I didn’t know how to taste it.
I also ate very quietly.
It's just that Xi Dazhuang would thoughtfully bring Chi Xi some dishes that she couldn't reach from time to time. Shen Ruyu saw everything clearly and felt that Xi Dazhuang had changed a lot in the past three years.
Chi Xi also realized that Xi Dazhuang was not as simple as she thought.
He has many secrets.
But she didn't want to get into it.
If Xi Dazhuang wants to tell her, she will be all ears. If he doesn't reveal it, it means the time has not come or the time is not right. She respects his wishes.
They are husband and wife, as long as he lives with her wholeheartedly.
She didn't want to care about what happened in the past.
Finished one meal.
Shen Ruyu raised her eyes and glanced at Chi Xi, but stopped talking.
Xi Dazhuang frowned and said in a cold voice: "Master Shen, you know that I don't have much patience. If I say what I have to say, I can save you all the twists and turns."
Shen Ruyu knew that Xi Dazhuang had a grudge against her, and that coming here was not only for the abovementioned purpose, but also for his own selfish reasons.
He and Xi Dazhuang once had a heart-to-heart talk while drinking and drinking, but now things have changed and there may be no going back between them.
Occasionally, he felt very sorry for the moon in the sky.
"Hey, what happened back then has passed, and he has been feeling guilty over the years and wants to help you. I know you have a grudge and are resisting my arrival for a while, but you can't stay here forever... "
"Daughter-in-law, let's go."
Xi Dazhuang stood up suddenly, pulled Chi Xi up without saying a word and turned around to leave. Shen Ruyu hurriedly stepped forward: "Brother Xi, what is the truth about what happened back then? Do you really don't want to pursue it? If the Marquis is wronged, you don't want to pay for it." Has he sought justice?"
Xi Dazhuang, who was striding out of the box, suddenly paused and turned slowly to look at Shen Ruyu. Senhan's eyes were like a wild wolf in the valley, full of aggression and anger. His muscles were tense and he would be furious at any time.
"Can you say that again?"
His voice was very low and deep, almost freezing cold.
Shen Ruyu also knew that she had touched Xi Dazhuang's reverse scale, but this man had been hiding for too long. If he was not stimulated, he would probably have to stay in an unknown small mountain village forever and end his life.
The smile on Shen Ruyu's face finally disappeared. He frowned and said in a deep voice: "Xi Xiangduo, you know what I'm talking about! Even if you don't care about family feud, don't you even want to find out the cause of your father's death? ?Can you really allow him to die and still be stabbed in the back by the world and call him a traitor? Your father is a strong man and has been loyal and brave throughout his life. How can you bear to watch him die with a stigma all over his body and have people reviled him for thousands of years? Ten thousand years?"
Xi Dazhuang's eyes were so scarlet that they were almost bleeding, and the sneer at the corner of his mouth was very cold and terrifying.
Shen Ruyu gritted his teeth and said aggressively: "Didn't you say that your father was wronged? Then why can you watch his innocent death and remain indifferent? Times are different now, and you have no chance of overturning the case for your father!"
"shut up!"
Xi Dazhuang jumped up suddenly, and under Chi Xi's surprised gaze, he punched Shen Ruyu's handsome and gentle face with a fierce punch.
Even if Shen Ruyu dodged in time, he would still be hit by Xi Dazhuang's fist. The pain on his face made him take a breath.
Although he had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, he was still far behind Kong Wu's powerful Xi Dazhuang. A fierce light flashed in his usually gentle eyes, and he turned to glare at Xi Dazhuang fiercely and cursed: "Xi Xiangduo, you coward, You coward! You watched your father die tragically, but you don’t even have the courage to seek justice for him? You want to hide here like a coward forever, and I won’t stop you, but I will always look down on you!"
"I told you to shut up!"
Xi Dazhuang couldn't bear it anymore, so he grabbed Shen Ruyu and beat her up.
Naturally, Shen Ruyu would not accept the beating obediently, and for a while the two of them were inseparable from each other.
Chi Xi looked on with horror.
When the shopkeeper heard the noise, he hurriedly ran up, panicking and saying, "What should I do? He is a nobleman from Kyoto, why did he start a fight? It's over, it's over, my life is gone!"
Chi Xi saw that the beating was almost done and that his husband had not suffered any losses, so he hurriedly said: "Sir, stop fighting. If you continue to fight, the building will collapse!"
When Xi Dazhuang heard his wife's voice, he clenched his fist and was about to swing it down. He looked at Shen Ruyu who was being beaten by him with an angry look in his eyes. With scarlet eyes, he warned fiercely every word: " I can do whatever I want, who are you to criticize me? What happened in the first place has nothing to do with your father, so just wait for me to make you an orphan!"
"Xi Xiangduo!"
Anger flashed in Shen Ruyu's eyes.
He was pressed down and beaten the whole time. Not only was his handsome face bruised, but there was no good piece of meat on his body. He cursed angrily: "You can find out what happened back then, and stop talking nonsense here! Give me a break!" "
Xi Dazhuang got up from Shen Ruyu with a sullen face, turned to look at Chi Xi who was standing at the door with a complicated expression. After hesitating for a moment, he blinked guiltily, then stiffened his neck and said, "Daughter-in-law, these things will happen when I get home. I’ll explain it to you again.”
