Chapter 117
After settling Wu Chang's affairs and finishing the last section of the journey, it was almost afternoon.
At noon, Huowu specifically asked Zhang Qingjiu if she wanted to finish her lunch before visiting, but she refused directly. She only said that the sun was shining brightly at noon and she wanted to find a shady place to walk.
Huo Wu thought that Mr. Zhang was really enthusiastic, so he immediately accompanied him all the way to the end. After only walking for such a long time, he was still a little hungry.
"Finished?" Zhang Qingjiu's eyes lit up when he returned to the starting point from where he started in the morning.
Seeing her like this, Huo Wu couldn't help but laugh, nodded and said, "Yes."
"Then I'm leaving. I have a favor for you today." Zhang Qingjiu breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave.
Just then, a clear voice came.
"Sir Xiao Zhang." Feng Zhi appeared at the door at some point and saluted Zhang Qingjiu respectfully.
Zhang Qingjiu's steps were awkward and he suddenly said: "???"
"Sir Xiao Zhang has been shopping for nearly four hours. Why don't you leave without lunch?" Feng Zhi smiled slightly and looked at Zhang Qingjiu's sudden change in expression. For the first time, he felt that he wanted to keep the person in front of him. This was how he felt in his heart.
carefree.
"No, thank you for your kindness." Zhang Qingjiu smiled slightly and took two steps forward, thinking that it was already this time, what kind of lunch would he like, so I would like to sneak away first.
But Feng Zhi's next words made Zhang Qingjiu pause in his tracks.
"But His Highness the Crown Prince has not eaten yet, he is just waiting to be with Mr. Xiao Zhang." Feng Zhi returned to his expressionless look.
Zhang Qingjiu: "..."
Absolutely amazing!
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Qingjiu wanted to say something more, and Feng Zhi spoke again, "His Royal Highness asked, is it possible that Mr. Xiao Zhang doesn't want to eat with him?"
"I..." Zhang Qingjiu narrowed his eyes, and a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I am willing."
"Then please, Mr. Xiao Zhang." Feng Zhi nodded, still blocking the door of the house, and made a gesture of invitation.
Zhang Qingjiu twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Okay."
When Zhang Qingjiu turned around and left, Huo Wu frowned and pulled Feng Zhi, "Why do I feel that something is wrong?"
"What's wrong?" Feng Zhiqian glanced at Huowu, "You're overthinking."
After saying that, Feng Zhi stood up and followed Zhang Qingjiu towards the flower hall.
Huo Wu watched the two people leaving, frowned, and scratched his head. Did he really think too much?
As everyone knows, Feng Zhi, who had not taken two steps away just now, had a proud smile on his eyes and eyebrows: You guys bully me on weekdays, but today I took the opportunity!
"Feng Zhi." Just when Feng Zhi couldn't hide the curve of his mouth, the person in front of him suddenly stopped.
Feng Zhi was startled and almost twitched the corner of his mouth, "What, what's wrong?"
Zhang Qingjiu sighed faintly, "For the sake of calling me aunt, I would like to advise you: if you help the tyrants to do evil, you will easily suffer retribution."
"Why are you helping the tyrants to commit evil? Don't talk nonsense." Feng Zhi's expression changed, and a flash of discomfort flashed in his eyes. Seeing that Zhang Qingjiu was standing still, he simply planned to walk around her and walk to the front.
Who knows——
"ah……"
The dignified servant of the prince who was able to grab a big man in Yixiang Tower actually slipped and fell into the pond.
Looking at Feng Zhi, who looked in disbelief at his position, Zhang Qingjiu raised the corner of his mouth, took two steps forward, and squatted down, "It's hot, so this is a good way to cool down."
Feng Zhi: "Who wants to use..."
"His Royal Highness is waiting for me. The pond is not deep, so I won't help you. You can get up by yourself." Zhang Qingjiu interrupted Feng Zhi without haste, smiled slightly, got up and walked towards the flower hall Shiran.
go.
I want you to help Chu Lan do no good deeds.
In the pond, Feng Zhi looked at Zhang Qingjiu's back, almost crying without tears. God knows that since he learned kung fu, he can't even walk and fall, let alone walk over walls.
Today's experience almost made him doubt his life.
Looking at Zhang Qingjiu's back as he walked away, Feng Zhi couldn't help but look away, "It's your fault..."
Halfway through his words, he suddenly fell silent.
The sentence just now "helping the tyrants do evil will easily lead to retribution" came to mind inexplicably.
Feng Zhi was shocked, and felt an inexplicable chill on his back. In the middle of summer, he actually shivered.
In the flower hall, Chu Lan was indeed still there, and the food on the table was still steaming hot. It was obvious that it had just been served.
If it hadn't been for today, if what happened this morning had not happened, she would have burst into tears of gratitude for Chu Lan's "consideration".
It's a pity that dog men have ulterior motives and don't have good intentions.
Zhang Qingjiu snorted softly, and without waiting for Chu Lan to call her, she sat directly next to him——
Although she wanted to express her dissatisfaction by sitting across from him, this bit of backbone was nothing compared to the attraction of the soul.
Moreover, the more Chu Lan didn't want her to touch him, the closer she would stick to him.
Dog man, just let yourself go!
Regarding Zhang Qingjiu's actions, Chu Lan looked as usual and nodded towards the maids not far away. The maids understood and were about to exit one by one.
Zhang Qingjiu raised his eyebrows: "Wait a minute."
The maids were startled and immediately turned around, "What are your orders, Mr. Xiao Zhang?"
If they still couldn't see that Mr. Zhang had an extraordinary status in the eyes of His Royal Highness, their years in the Prince's Mansion would have been in vain.
"Isn't there any pear blossom cake?" Zhang Qingjiu raised his eyebrows at the dazzling array of dishes on the table, "If there is no pear blossom cake, I won't eat it."
Didn't Chu Lan always use pear blossom cakes to irritate her? Today she also let him know what it means to feel uncomfortable.
The maid glanced at Chu Lan and saw that his expression was as usual. She breathed a sigh of relief and replied respectfully with a slight smile, "Don't worry, Sir Xiao Zhang. The pear blossom cake has been prepared. You can bring it to me at any time if you want."
"I..." Zhang Qingjiu took a breath, this bitch was getting better and better at dealing with him.
"Then let's serve it now." Zhang Qingjiu rubbed his back teeth and slowly exhaled.
"yes……"
"No." Chu Lan on the side finally spoke.
"Why not?" Zhang Qingjiu frowned and looked straight into Chu Lan's eyes.
These eyes were so deep and hidden that it was almost impossible to see any emotion. Fortunately, she had thought Chu Lan's eyes were shining like stars and her eyes were as clear as well water.
fraud.
Zhang Qingjiu curled his lips and looked away, feeling inexplicably aggrieved.
Chu Lan's eyes flashed, and her words softened a bit softly, "Huo Wu said that you have been gone for several hours without drinking a sip of tea. Are you not afraid of dry mouth when eating pear blossom cakes now?"
Wherever Zhang Qingjiu looked out of the corner of his eye, he could see slender, white fingers with clear joints, holding a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other.
