Chapter 40 Recognition
At this time, only a soft voice was heard: "It's me."
Everyone followed the sound and saw a petite figure standing in the corner. It was unknown how long he had been standing there. He was wrapped in a black cloak, and even his small face was hidden in the shadow of the hood. Faintly , only a small chin can be seen, in the thick ink color, as delicate as mutton-fat jade.
Among the people present, there were also people with noble backgrounds or extraordinary vision.
Just looking at the black crane cloak on her body, anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that it must be of great value and very expensive. But at this time, because it didn't fit her, she just dragged it on the ground so casually.
It can be seen that she either does not know how precious this thing is, or she knows its value but does not take it seriously at all.
Inexplicably, everyone deeply felt that it should be the latter.
This should be a mysterious woman with noble birth.
…
Shen Qiaoran heard the voice and looked back, only to see a strange woman covered in clothes.
Since she was a woman, he didn't pursue it further and frowned. Shen Qiaoran turned around and hurried out without looking at Xiao Jue.
Seeing that his stupid brother didn't recognize his own voice, Shen Qiaochen sighed in his heart and hurriedly said: "Wait a minute."
Shen Qiaoran paused for a moment, but did not look back, and kept walking out.
Shen Qiaochen was a little anxious, but her hair was disheveled and her expression was uneven. If she directly revealed her identity, she could just imagine what the news in Beijing would be like tomorrow based on the cloak that was obviously several sizes too big.
In a hurry, she picked up a cup and threw it at Shen Qiaoran again...
But Shen Qiaoran reacted very quickly when he was awake. Although his skills were not as good as Xiao Jue's, it was easy for him to avoid this small cup at this time.
Everyone saw the mysterious woman in black trying to "attack" the third son of the Shen family with a teacup, but she easily avoided it. Just when they were wondering what the relationship between the two was, Xiao Jue dodged and blocked the door. Shen Qiao Ran's way out.
Shen Qiaoran's mood that had just calmed down immediately became angry again. Just when he was about to speak, he saw Xiao Jue raised his chin at him and motioned for him to look behind him.
Shen Qiaoran looked back impatiently and saw the strange and mysterious woman walking towards him.
That pace and body shape... made Shen Qiaoran feel vaguely familiar. Before he could react, he saw the other party raised his left hand again, seemingly unintentionally brushing his temples. The wide sleeves gradually slipped down, and the snow-white wrists Wearing an exquisite glass bracelet.
The bracelet was exquisitely made, and the most eye-catching thing was that there was a small jade bell hanging on it. As she raised her hand lightly, the bell jingled, and the sound was ethereal and very pleasant.
Shen Qiaoran was stunned on the spot, staring closely at the bracelet on the woman's wrist.
There is only one such glazed bracelet in the world, and he has only seen it on one person.
After a while, Shen Qiaoran opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but no matter how hard he tried, no sound came out.
Looking at his brother's expression, Shen Qiaochen suddenly felt blessed. He raised his lips in Xiao Jue's direction and showed a satisfied smile.
Then he turned around and walked upstairs first. When he arrived on the second floor, he saw a slender and handsome young man in red leaning lazily on the railing, holding a folding fan in his hand and fanning himself.
Shen Qiaochen was wearing a hood, and she couldn't see clearly when she glanced over. When she saw the other person looking at her with a smile, she felt slightly happy and walked straight to the other side.
Since Shen Qiaoran is waiting here, then her Zi Fu and Qing Dai are unknown.
Shen Qiaochen was worried about the whereabouts of the two maids. He raised his head inadvertently and saw that the person was still standing opposite. When he saw her looking at him, he shook Shen Qiaochen's hand with the paper fan. Show a meaningful smile.
At first, Shen Qiaochen was a little puzzled by this man's behavior, thinking that maybe he was someone Shen Qiaoran knew, but seeing the way he was waving his fan, he felt very familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.
Red clothes... folding fan...
Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in Shen Qiaochen's eyes, and he remembered someone.
I think I have met this person before. That day she went out with Shen Qiaoran for the first time. When she took the opportunity to meet Ji Qingyuan, she sat by the window on the second floor of Zui Jiangyue and smiled coquettishly at her. It's this person.
That's right, Mr. Jiang Liu, who has always claimed to be dashing and charming, gave Shen Qiaochen the first impression of him as a carefree and arrogant disciple...
At that time, she was in a hurry to see Ji Qingyuan before Xiao Li. Although she was a little unhappy at the first sight, she didn't take it to heart. She just felt that he looked familiar for some reason.
Later, she went back and thought about the people she knew in her previous life, and finally vaguely remembered that Jiang Fengmian, the youngest son of the Duke of Jin, was the sixth in the family. He always liked to wear red and was a well-known dandy in the capital. His aggressive attitude always made Duke Jin very angry.
The most important thing is that Jiang Fengmian in his previous life was Xiao Jue's best friend and true confidant.
They were as close as brothers in their previous lives, so they must be no different in this life.
But since Jiang Fengmian and Shen Qiaoran are waiting here, it is obvious that Xiao Jue has known about it for a long time. So in the float just now, when Shen Qiaochen asked him why he came, what he said "passing by." was obviously a lie.
This person...
He obviously went out of his way to save her, but he still acted like he was arrogant and cold, what a big liar...
Shen Qiaochen was a little angry, but when he thought about his performance at that time, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed...
It was really useless. After being reborn, I was almost scared to tears by Xiao Jue, who was now only a teenager.
…
So Shen Qiaochen, who felt that he had lost face, once again made up his mind that Xiao Jue should be kept at a distance from now on.
After thinking about this clearly, Shen Qiaochen cheered up again.
By now, Jiang Fengmian must be as aware of her identity as Xiao Jue.
Therefore, in front of him, there was no need to worry too much about some things. Shen Qiao was about to ask him if he knew the whereabouts of Zi Fu and Qing Dai. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Jiang Fengmian looking towards the stairs.
Shen Qiaochen also turned around and saw Xiao Jue and Shen Qiaoran walking upstairs one after another.
Seeing Shen Qiaochen, Shen Qiaoran's eyes lit up and he immediately walked over quickly. He was about to say something, but remembered that he couldn't speak at the moment, so he could only open his mouth and glance sadly at Xiao Jue. .
