Chapter Sixty-Eight

In just one day, he almost outran the bloody horse. An Chengshao finally came close to the process. He had not closed his eyes for a whole day and a night. He was extremely tired and his eyes were bloodshot. But he saw that there were still people in the capital.

Less than fifty miles away, a smile appeared on his lips.

How much he wanted to fly to Xu Xiuyi right now, apologize to her for breaking the appointment, and then hold her tightly in his arms and kiss her all over.

He probably never imagined that Xu Xiuyi would rather never see him again in his life.

Xu Xiuyi did not believe in Buddhism in the Su Family Buddhist Hall, but she did not deny that it was a place for meditation. She had been here all morning and had three fast meals. When the sky turned dark, Jin Yu came to ask for instructions when to go back to rest, and she suddenly realized

It's getting dark.

She stood up and said with a pale expression, "Go back."

Jin Yu was quite worried: "What's happened to grandma these days? Is there anything upsetting you?"

Xu Xiuyi shook her head: "No."

She was not in a high mood, and Jin Yu didn't know what to say. He lit up a lantern and followed her, sensing that Xu Xiuyi had something on his mind.

After returning to the house, Jin Yu ordered a cup of tea for Xu Xiuyi, and asked Xu Xiuyi if she wanted to eat pastries. She bought them from Wufuzhai. This summer's new style, ice-skinned candy cakes, was said to be filled with mint, and she ate it in her mouth.

It's cool and comfortable.

Xu Xiuyi had no such appetite and shook her head without interest.

Jin Yu saw that she really didn't want to talk in the yard, so he didn't bother her and just embroidered.

While I was embroidering, I suddenly remembered something. I got up and went out. When I came back, I had an extra purse in my hand. The embroidery work on the purse was very exquisite. A circle of auspicious cloud patterns was uniquely sewn at the opening. On the top of the purse was a rich peony with a golden jade handle.

The purse was delivered to Xu Xiuyi and said: "Grandma didn't ask Miss Qing to embroider a purse for you. If you want to give it away, Miss Qing came over in the morning. When she knew you were in the Buddhist hall, she asked me to give it to grandma."

Yes, she originally wanted to give it to someone, to Master An Cheng, but now she probably won't have any use for it.

It's difficult for Miss Qing to be careful. Different patterns are embroidered on both sides of the purse. It's a double-sided embroidery. On one side, it's rich, peony, graceful and luxurious. When you open the inside, it's embroidered with elegant ink bamboo.

Maybe Miss Qing didn't know that she was giving away a boy and a girl, and it was hard to ask her, so she embroidered it on both sides.

Looking at the embroidery skills, it is really outstanding. Even the double-sided embroidery of gold and jade cannot be done to this extent. This girl Qing's female red needlework has reached the level of perfection.

Xu Xiuyi looked at her purse and felt a little sentimental, but suddenly a thought came to her mind and she looked at Jin Yu: "Is the best embroidery shop in Beijing the Jinniang Embroidery Shop?"

Xu Xiuyi showed little interest in anything these days. It was rare for her to take the initiative to talk to Jin Yu. Jin Yu hurriedly said: "Well, it is said to be something from Jinniang Xiuzhuang, and the empresses in the palace are all vying for it.

Woolen cloth."

"Let's go see it another day."

Jin Yu didn't know what she was going to do. He just thought she wanted to buy some embroidery, so he said: "Whatever grandma wants, just teach Miss Qing to embroider for you. Miss Qing's craftsmanship is not as good as that of Jinniang Embroidery Village."

Difference."

"I know."

Xu Xiuyi rubbed her purse. This skill was really good. Instead of feeling sad for an unworthy man these days, she might as well think of ways to deal with Su Jinyi.

Although she was in seclusion in the Buddhist hall, she listened to the account books and Ah Fu's reports every time, so Su Jinyi finally took action.

Su Jinyi relied on the financial resources of Lou Yong and other partners to start a price war with Baoning Tang.

Xu Xiuyi had expected that Su Jinyi would not be so peaceful. Ah Fu said that Su Jinyi had reduced the prices of all medicines by 10%. Now that spring and summer are changing, there are many colds and fevers. Now, almost all of these passengers have entered Su Jinyi's security guard.

Baoning Hall, the business in Baoning Hall was very bleak, and the grandmother couldn’t bear it and hired a few people to serve as childcare, so Baoning Hall barely seemed to have some business.

Childcare is never a long-term solution. Xu Xiuyi has been meditating in the Buddhist hall for the past few days and just wants to take her heart away from An Chengshao. Now that she sees Miss Qing's purse, she has a plan in mind and puts her mind on

After getting down to business, he no longer worried about the matter of Master Huai An Cheng.

That night, Xu Xiuyi lay on the bed and slept peacefully. She thought that the dispute between her and An Chengshao should be over here. After five days, she had been depressed for a long time.

*

When they got up in the morning, Xu Xiuyi and Jin Yu went to Jinniang Xiuzhuang.

The boss of Jinniang Xiuzhuang is a woman. She is now in her forties and has never been married. Because she likes needlework and needlework, she runs a small workshop. Later, her craftsmanship is outstanding. Many female relatives of the royal family come here because of her reputation. The original small shop

The workshop developed into the large embroidery shop it is today.

Jinniang is a legendary figure in the capital. Few people have seen her in person. Her natal brother and sister-in-law are in charge of the entire Xiuzhuang. When Xu Xiuyi went there this time, the person who received her was naturally Jinniang's brother and sister-in-law.

A woman in her early fifties, slightly fatter and getting better, was sitting in the inner hall with Xu Xiuyi, talking politely to her.

"How come Grandma Su San has time to come here today?"

Regardless of her age, she can be called Xu Xiuyi's mother, so Xu Xiuyi naturally respects her.

"Mrs. Wei, I came today because I have a business to do with your embroidery shop."

"Oh?" Wei Shufen was surprised and said, "Is the third grandma going to start a silk and satin business?"

There is only one line of business that deals with them, and that is silk and satin shops and ready-to-wear shops.

The silk and satin shop supplies the goods and the ready-made clothing shop picks up the goods. All she can think of is that Xu Xiuyi wants to enter this industry.

But I heard Xu Xiu recall: "It's like a mountain across the street. How can I get into the silk and satin business? I came here because of fame and for a request."

"Grandma Su San, could you please tell me what's going on?"

Wei Shufen had heard a little bit about Xu Xiuyi. Before meeting her, she was curious about how such a fierce and capable character could actually make the second master of the Su family so angry that they split up the family.

After meeting her, she was quite surprised. She was a very delicate-looking woman, but her words and demeanor were full of distinction and extraordinaryness.

She was willing to listen to what Xu Xiuyi wanted, and if she could help, she would be willing to help.

Xu Xiuyi lowered her voice and whispered a few words in her ear. She was a little surprised at first, but quickly nodded and said: "This is not difficult to do. How can we say that the third grandma wants to do a profitable business?"

As for me, this is a win-win situation for us."

Xu Xiuyi felt that Wei Shufen was really refreshing, and she felt very satisfied. She got up and took the double-sided purse from Miss Qing last night and gave it to Wei Shufen: "This purse was embroidered by the girl from my big house. She knew I was coming, baba."

Please beg me to bring this over. I want to ask Aunt Jinniang to show it to me. Mrs. Wei, I would like to trouble you to pass it on."

Wei Shufen took the purse, looked at it twice, her eyes lit up, and praised: "Good workmanship, good workmanship."

"Mrs. Wei, let's settle our matters first. My niece is very good at needlework and admires you very much. I will bring her to see the world someday. I will leave today."

Wei Shufen walked her to the door, Xu Xiuyi got into the carriage, and the carriage went to Baoning Hall.

In the car, Jin Yu asked her curiously: "Grandma didn't buy anything?"

"No ah."

"Then what on earth is grandma here for?"

"Build a brand."

She said brand, but Jin Yu couldn't understand it either.

"what?"

"You'll know in a few days. I want to take a walk around the counter. I want to see how proud Su Jinyi can be."

Speaking of Su Jinyi, Jin Yu was filled with indignation: "It's really disgusting, he actually lowered the price of medicine, grandma, otherwise we would lower the price too, and suppress him no matter what, otherwise he would think we are afraid of him."

Price war?

This is definitely not a wise move. Xu Xiuyi knows clearly that the consequence of a price war is that both sides will suffer losses. However, Su Jinyi is a partner, so the three of them can bear the pain together. She is different. She cannot make fun of Baoningtang's temper.

"Let's talk about it in the store."

Everyone in the store, including Su Jinye, Ah Fu, and Chen San, basically had the same opinions as Jin Yu on this matter. They also said that the price would be lowered by 20%, and it would definitely be lower than Baoantang.

"If this continues, the business in the store will be wiped out. We have imported so many medicinal materials in the past few months. If they cannot be sold, they will be stored and moldy."

It was Chen San who said this. He still feels that Xu Xiuyi is a little eager for quick success. In order to cancel the contract purchase cost, he purchased so many medicinal materials at one time. These medicinal materials are now hoarded in the warehouse. At this rate, and Su Jinyi is interfering with it, he is afraid that

We won't be able to sell them all by next year, so we have to wait for them to get moldy and throw them away.

Xu Xiuyi heard the complaint in his words, so she wasn't angry. She just stood up and looked at everyone.

"It is unwise to lower the price. So Su Jinyi wants to defeat us in terms of price. If we lower the price by 20%, he will lower the price by 30%. If we lower the price by 40%, if he lowers the price by 50%, can we still lower the price?

"

There was silence in the room, and the accounting clerk opened the door first.

The voice was full of worry: "If we don't succeed, we will lose money."

Xu Xiuyi nodded: "If you lose money, it's better to close down. Why bother to work so hard and still not make money? The key is to make this breath go away. Listen, everyone, I have my own way to deal with that Su Jinyi. Just do your own thing well.

Don’t panic, don’t be angry, I have everything under control.”

Her words are extremely powerful and admirable.

Ah Fu stood up first: "We believe Third Grandma."

Then came Su Jinye, whose voice was not as loud as Ah Fu's, but still very sure: "Third brother and sister, I believe in you."

Afterwards, everyone stood up and shouted slogans: "We believe in the Third Grandma."

This passion and trust were very useful to Xu Xiuyi. She nodded to everyone: "Don't worry, everything will be fine. Let's go to work. If there are no guests, then each of us will bring his own apprentice."

"Yes, grandma."

Everyone dispersed. Xu Xiuyi's words were encouraging, but she really couldn't come up with any countermeasures. As long as she said she had a solution, everyone would trust her.

To boost morale, Xu Xiuyi said to Jin Yu, "I'm going back."

Jin Yu went out to call for the carriage to be prepared. She packed up a few account books and took them out, only to see Ah Fu standing at the door with a red face.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

Ah Fu didn't dare to look into her eyes, and his voice was as quiet as a mosquito: "Third Grandma, do you like sweets?"

Xu Xiuyi smiled sweetly. This young man obviously admired her, but he just hadn't found a girl he really liked. When he reached an age where he knew how to love, he knew that secret love and love were completely different things.

Although Xu Xiuyi knew too little about feelings.

She nodded: "It's okay, I don't like it if it's too sweet."

"Then give this to Third Grandma."

Ah Fu took a paper bag to Xu Xiuyi and said quickly: "I'm going to work."

He turned around and entered the back hall.

Xu Xiuyi stared blankly at the paper bag in her hand and chuckled.

After leaving the door, the carriage had not yet driven out from the backyard. She took the paper bag and glanced at the security hall opposite. It happened that Su Jiang and Su Liying came out of the security hall.

The two sides looked at each other, and Mrs. Su Jiang was stunned. Xu Xiuyi thought that Ms. Su Jiang was going to say something sarcastic to the crowd of people in Baoning Hall at her door. However, she saw Mrs. Su Jiang pulling Su Liying away, and turned around and left.

Mrs. Su Jiang was really compassionate and did not embarrass Xu Xiuyi in the street. This was not her temperament at all.

Looking at Su Jiang's back, she always felt an inexplicable desolation.

"Embroidered memories."

She looked panicked, vaguely hearing someone calling her, and following the sound, she looked over and saw half a face peeking out from the alley on the left. It was Su Jinyuan.

Xu Xiuyi frowned, and Su Jinyuan called her in a low voice: "Come here."

Xu Xiuyi moved her steps and headed towards the alley.

This alley was once the alley where she and An Chengshao kissed for the first time. Now under the same hidden roof, the man in front of her is no longer the same one.

He also has affectionate eyes, a gentle voice, and a handsome face.

He called her: "Xiu Yi, how are you these days?"

"kindness."

Xu Xiuyi's attitude was very cold.

Su Jinyuan was a little hurt: "Do you really hate me so much that you don't want to smile at me even if you smile, or do you actually wish that I was really dead?"

"No!" According to Xu Xiuyi's temper in the past, her coldness and alienation were indeed a bit strange. She forced a smile and just wanted to leave quickly. Even without Mr. An Cheng, that person couldn't be Su Jinyuan.

.

"Xiu Yi, I know I was sorry for you before, and I will compensate you a hundred times in the future. During the time when I was on the run, I thought about how good you were to me every day, about the bastard things I did in the past, and how I could be like that.

If you don't cherish you, you bastard, I just want to slap myself twice."

Su Jinyuan was telling the truth. In fact, Xu Xiuyi was kind to him in the past. Because Su Jinyuan was unhappy on their wedding night, Xu Xiuyi was careful to please An Chengshao every day and night after that.

, the whole person regarded herself as a maid.

It was Su Jinyuan who was fascinated by Ji Hong. He couldn't take his eyes off the delicate and beautiful lady. Every day when he woke up and fell asleep, his mind was filled with Ji Hong's enchanting smile and her ecstasy skills.

His intestines are turning green with regret now, thinking that if he had been a good man and a good husband before, he would have been able to maintain a happy family and not have to live such a life of hiding in hiding.

Seeing Xu Xiuyi, my regret became even stronger.

But Xu Xiuyi didn't need his regrets. Seeing how he wanted to repent, feel regretful, and beg for forgiveness when he talked about the past, she naturally changed the subject: "Is the murderer good enough?"

Su Jinyuan shook his head, but looked at Xu Xiuyi with some joy: "I made up a false identity, pretending to be a businessman from other provinces, and went out in disguise every day to find out the clues about my matter. The murderer was not found, but he was called

I discovered something by accident."

"What's up?"

"You probably saw my second sister-in-law coming out of the security hall just now. Didn't you see her red eyes?"

Xu Xiuyi really didn't notice it. She was probably focused on whether Su Jiang would rush up and ridicule her, so she didn't see that Su Jiang was crying.

She became slightly more interested: "What did you find?"

"I accidentally discovered that my second brother has a woman who has a child. He is a son. He is about four years old. He looks exactly like my second brother. I think my second sister-in-law also knows about this.

It’s over.”

When Xu Xiuyi heard this, she was quite surprised, but she soon realized that it was nothing unusual. Su Jinyi even ate grass from the side of his house. It was possible for him to have an outhouse outside the house, as the sky was high and the emperor was far away.

"Your second brother is really a romantic seed."

There was a slight sarcasm in her tone. Although Su Jiang was a bit tough and unforgiving, she did not fall into such a miserable state. Her daughter was killed by her husband's lover. It was only more than a month ago.

, something like this happened again, she is also a pitiful person.

Su Jinyuan looked a little embarrassed when she heard what Xu Xiuyi said. She was afraid that Xu Xiuyi also meant something about him, so she gently took Xu Xiuyi into her arms: "Xiu Yi, from now on, I will only be infatuated with you.

.”

Xu Xiuyi was unprepared and was hugged by him. When she was about to break away, her eyes caught sight of An Chengshao's cold and expressionless face at the top of the alley. She felt sad and she quickly evoked a sarcastic smile.

Let Su Jinyuan hold her and remain motionless.

Looking up at the entrance of the alley, An Chengshao had long since disappeared. Jin Yu was looking for her in a hurry, and she pushed Su Jinyuan away.

"Let's go quickly."

With a cold tone, she looked at Mr. An Cheng: "Jin Yu is looking for me."

When she didn't resist just now, Su Jinyuan had already assumed that she wanted to forgive him. He was feeling sweet in his heart, but when she suddenly acted like this again, he couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.

However, I also saw Jin Yu's figure looking anxiously at the entrance of the alley, and hurriedly hid under the eaves: "Then you go back, I will come find you another day, Xiu Yi, I love you."

Love, why does it sound so disgusting?

Someone once said such words to her, but in the blink of an eye they disappeared from her life without even saying hello.

He's back again, isn't he?

Did he see it?

That's fine, at least in this way, she can get back 10% and not be the fool who was unilaterally betrayed and abandoned, even though he was in two boats and she was just pretending.

She thought, why did he look at her with such cold eyes? Did he think that she was just one of his three wives and four concubines, who must be loyal to him from the inside out? If so, he really thought too much.

When it comes to relationships, she has a serious mysophobia. If she sprays other women, she will never touch her again.

Just like Su Jinyuan, a simple hug made her feel sick.

Except for the alley, Jin Yu saw her coming out of it and glanced suspiciously, but saw a man hurried to the other end of the alley. Jin Yu seemed to understand something, but did not dare to ask or say more.

Last time, the waiter in the store also said that Xu Xiuyi went into the alley with a man, and Xu Xiuyi came back in the middle of the night.

Although Jin Yu didn't ask or tell, her heart was very clear, and she felt pity and contempt for Xu Xiuyi.

She originally thought that her grandma had been a well-behaved person since she was a child, but she never expected that she would do such a thing.

But pity is more than contempt. She also knows that her grandmother is only eighteen years old. How can a person survive her great years alone?

She kept this matter in her stomach, pretending that she saw nothing and knew nothing, and came up to pick up Xu Xiuyi: "Grandma, get in the car."

The calmer Jin Yu remained without asking where she had gone, the more Xu Xiu Yi understood that Jin Yu must have been thinking wrongly.

That's all, I'll explain it later.

As he was about to get on the bus, a burst of screams erupted from the crowd in front, and then someone shouted: "Wake up, wake up, someone has fainted, someone has fainted."

Xu Xiuyi frowned slightly and said to Jin Yu, "Go and have a look."

From Baoning Hall and Baoan Hall, there were also waiters running out. Several people came to the edge of the circle of people and looked through the heads of people in the middle. Xu Xiuyi was dumbfounded.

Master An Cheng!

Jin Yu also recognized him. Although they only met him once, he was so handsome that she could never forget him once she saw him.

What's more, just now she actually thought that the tall figure in the alley might be a man her grandmother knew.

Now it is obvious that she guessed wrong.

The guy from Baoning Hall came out quickly, and now he was angry with Baoning Hall. He pushed aside the crowd as if he was trying to steal business, and took An Chengshao into Baoning Hall. Xu Xiuyi wanted to go back, but he couldn't move his feet no matter what.

Moved.

When she returned to Baoning Hall, her face was extremely heavy. In the inner hall, Su Jinye had already begun to check Young Master An Cheng's pulse.

Seeing Su Jinye's expression gradually soften from solemnity, Xu Xiuyi didn't know what to do and breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, it is impossible to completely treat An Chengshao as a stranger.

Su Jinye put down Mr. An Cheng's hand and said, "It's due to fatigue. He hasn't had a good rest for a few days, and his yang energy has been depleted. I'll give him some medicine to nourish his energy and nourish his mind."

As he said this, he suddenly took a closer look at An Chengshao's face and was shocked: "Isn't this the Fifth Prince's new favorite?"

Xu Xiuyi vaguely remembered that day when she was entertaining guests at the Lihua Inn and got drunk. She met Mr. An Cheng on the road. Later, Su Jinye and Su Jinyi came to pick him up, and they all met each other.

She did not clarify the relationship between An Chengshao and the Fifth Prince. Knowing that An Chengshao was fine, she got up and left.

Su Jinye said: "The fifth prince is kind to our Su family, Xiu Yi, otherwise you should take care of the fifth prince's people first. I will send someone to inform the fifth prince. Come and send them to my room. You must not neglect them."

Already."

Before Xu Xiuyi could say anything, Su Jinye had already arranged everything in a vigorous and resolute manner. Xu Xiuyi didn't know what happened, but followed the people carrying An Chengshao into Su Jinye's room.

This is the place where Su Jinye rested in Baoning Hall. The house has the style of Su Jinye and has a strong book atmosphere.

There was also a half-open book on the bed.

Su Jinye hurried up, took down the book and put it away, and dusted the already spotless bedding with his sleeves. For fear of neglecting Young Master An Cheng, he repeatedly told everyone to put Young Master An Cheng down carefully. When he saw Young Master An Cheng lying down, he

He breathed a sigh of relief and asked everyone to go out. He turned around and recalled to Xu Xiu: "You haven't seen how much the fifth prince loves him. Today we saved his life. The fifth prince will definitely be grateful to us, but he won't dare to acknowledge the prince.

I'm grateful. It's a way of repaying the prince's kindness. You can take care of me here, and I'll order someone to invite the fifth prince."

"Brother, I..."

Before Xu Xiuyi could finish speaking, Su Jinye had already left the door, walked to the door and then turned back. He poked his head in and said to Xu Xiuyi, "It would be better for me to go there in person. I'll be back. You close the doors and windows, and I'll touch them."

His veins are infected with some wind-cold, although it is not severe, but do not let the wind blow."

After that, go out and close the door.

The room was a little dark, with only the afternoon sunlight shining softly through the cracks in the window, and hitting An Chengshao's face impartially. The clear-cut outlines, under the warm yellow sunlight,

A bit tragically pale.

Xu Xiuyi sat by the bed and looked at the face, feeling a little heartbroken without realizing it.

Who said that it only takes a second to fall in love with someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

She privately thought that she had wiped An Chengshao's memory out of her memory during the few days of cleaning up the Buddhist hall. But if she really didn't take this person seriously, why did she accept that disgusting hug in front of him?

Make this play for him.

Why did my heart tighten when I saw that the unconscious person was him?

And why was he relieved when he learned that he was just too tired and nothing serious.

And now, why are you here, quietly looking at his face.

Even those pale, bloodless lips, why did she want to reach out and touch them.

The warm fingertips gently landed on the thin lips, and the skin touched, but the pain in the heart was so dull that I couldn't breathe.

She will never be able to forget the carriage he drove away without a word of farewell or goodbye.

Her nose felt sore, she took a deep breath, and then adjusted her mentality. Her face was filled with indifference, and she reached out to withdraw her fingers. Unexpectedly, the person on the bed suddenly opened her eyes, and a pair of big palms suddenly grabbed her wrist.

, she let out a cry of pain, her wrist was almost broken.

"I've only been gone a few days." There was anger in his tone, extreme anger, and his eyes were bloodshot, as if he was spitting fire.

Xu Xiuyi withdrew her hand, rubbed her wrist and sneered: "From which day? That night, or the afternoon when you left the capital?"

An Chengshao was startled: "How did you know that I left the capital?"

Xu Xiuyi didn't answer and didn't want to talk to him: "Now that you're awake, I'll leave."

After saying that he was about to leave, An Chengshao took off the quilt and got out of the bed. He didn't take two steps and fell to the ground. He was so dizzy that he ran back to the capital day and night just to see her, but in the end he saw her.

At that scene, my energy and blood surged, and now my temples were throbbing with pain. I lost my balance and fell to the ground.

Xu Xiuyi did not look back. She knew that once she looked back, she might not be able to talk to him so calmly and indifferently. She was only afraid that she would feel wronged and shed tears, and be disgusted by herself like a little girl.

She didn't need An Chengshao to see her embarrassment, she wanted him to know that she could completely wipe out the past between them.

"You dare to leave."

An Chengshao had a severe headache and couldn't stand up. Looking at Xu Xiuyi's steps, his eyes were a little blurry. He might faint at any time, but he managed to stay awake for the last time and shouted loudly.

Xu Xiuyi was still looking out, but An Chengshao punched the ground hard. The thick sound finally stopped Xu Xiuyi's steps.

She turned around and saw in surprise the blood seeping out of his fist, dyeing the floor a circle of red, and became angry.

"What are you doing? Are you crazy? You are sick."

An Chengshao breathed heavily. This punch consumed almost all his strength, but the pain made him wake up.

He stood up and walked step by step to Xu Xiuyi. His bloody hand grabbed Xu Xiuyi's chin. The next moment, he lowered his head and kissed Xu Xiuyi's lips fiercely.

Xu Xiuyi instinctively stepped back, but there was a door panel behind her. He pressed over and pressed her between him and the door panel. He breathed hot breath into her mouth one after another.

Xu Xiuyi pushed him, but couldn't push him. She whimpered and resisted, but he swallowed it into her belly. The taste of humiliation and grievance rushed up. She gave up resisting, but tears fell down, and her salty tears fell.

As their lips overlapped, An Chengshao finally stopped, his forehead pressed against hers, and there was a dead silence in his eyes.

"Xiu'er, tell me what I saw just now is not true."

After a long while, he spoke first, his tone softened, almost begging.

Xu Xiuyi raised her head stubbornly: "Didn't you see everything?"

"Xu Xiuyi!" He roared angrily, and slammed the door behind her with his injured fist. Xu Xiuyi only felt the door panel shake, and then someone knocked on the door outside.

"Third Grandma, Third Grandma, what's wrong?"

Xu Xiuyi swallowed the sobs in her throat and said, "It's okay. Go and do your work. If you knock something over, I'll clean it up."

I said "Oh" outside, and then heard footsteps walking away.

Xu Xiuyi raised her head, her tearful eyes were cold: "Let me go."

"Xu Xiuyi, you are really good."

An Chengshao sneered. The laughter was full of sarcasm. Xu Xiuyi's heart felt like a knife piercing her heart. Why should he be sarcastic? He was the one who betrayed her first.

She stubbornly wiped her tears with the back of her hand, then raised her head, her eyes becoming colder and colder: "Young Master An Cheng, you are not bad either."

After saying that, he opened the door and turned around and left.

She finally understood that there is a saying that it is better not to see you.

She had never thought that there could be such a tense situation between her and An Chengshao.

His bloodthirsty eyes almost engulfed her.

And the way she looked at that time, she probably showed no signs of weakness.

She only hoped that she and An Chengshao would never have anything to do with each other in the future. They were originally two unrelated people, and it was a mistake to get together. Now she knew her mistake, she really knew her mistake.
