This extremely possessive tyrant had already cleared out the Sanhai Tower. At this time, the surroundings were silent, even the music had stopped, and only the two of them stood on the stage.
He didn't speak, and Ahaya didn't speak either. She just stared at him expectantly, as if waiting for an answer.
After a long while, he finally let go of her wrist with a frown, his tone inexplicable.
"I thought you would blame me."
He was smiling but not smiling, and his eyes were very sharp as he stared at Ahaya.
Ahaya was stunned, pursed her lips slightly, and lowered her head, seeming a little sad.
"a little bit."
She did not retort as Xie Jie imagined, but stretched out two fingers to draw a small range for him. The light in her eyes dimmed, and she seemed very sad.
"I blame you, why did you treat Liu Nu like that and let Zhou Zhong say such things to me?"
Thinking of this, she seemed a little aggrieved and dejected, like a bullied cat.
"I originally thought that if you came to see me, I would get very angry and completely ignore you..."
"Then why do you think of coaxing me again?" Xie Jie clicked his tongue and narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was a little unhappy.
"But, someone has to bow his head first." Ahaya raised her eyes to look at him and said in a very soft voice, "If you don't come to me, then I'll go to you."
"result--"
"In the end, I caught him red-handed."
Xie Jie raised the corners of his lips and smiled.
There was joy in his eyes, and his gaze gradually softened as he looked at Ahaya.
But it was not like looking at a sweetheart, but rather like looking at a pleasing pet, an interesting object.
Ahaya lowered her eyes, not letting herself feel the familiar gaze that had fallen on her countless times in her previous life, and her heart felt cold.
"Yes." She turned her face away from him, her ears and neck turned red, and she responded in a low voice, seeming to be very embarrassed.
Something flashed in Xie Jie's eyes and he laughed softly.
He closed his palms and held the jade pendant given by Ahaya.
"very good."
His tone was light and airy, with a hint of a good show.
"Then I'll wait and see."
It really went too far.
Ahaya cursed in her heart, but her face was blank, as if she hadn't reacted yet, and she glanced at him, hesitantly.
Xie Jie met her gaze, and his fingers fell on her smooth and smooth neck, sliding down the fair skin. His eyes filled with lust, and his voice became a little hoarse.
"Before that, why don't Ahaya fulfill your promise to me...once, twice, and three times?"
ah?
Ahaya opened her eyes wide with shock on her face, like a kitten who had seen something incredible.
When did she mean that when she said it?
As the world turned around, she cursed in her heart with grief and anger.
This tyrant is full of trash!
The bright moon hung high, and its gauzy white moonlight shone on the branches. The whole city was asleep. Only the jackdaws cried all night and refused to rest.
In the next few days, Xie Jie would call Ahaya over from time to time, and by asking about her progress in coaxing people, he would find many faults, followed by natural punishments, forcing Ahaya to almost stop acting.
Just when she was about to explode, the king's motorcade finally set off back to Beijing.
On the day we set out, it was snowing lightly, and the sky and the earth were all white.
Liu Nu was already feeling better, so he wanted to follow her no matter what. At this time, he was holding an umbrella and standing beside her, watching the slave carry the salute to the carriage.
Akhya held the stove and looked at the sky in the north, her eyes full of desolation.
Now that I have left, I don’t know when I will be able to return to Beirong again.
"Miss Ahya."
A clear male voice sounded. Aheya turned around and saw Lin Heng nodding towards her with a gentle voice.
"It's snowy and windy, why don't you get into the carriage and take shelter." He probably misunderstood, thinking that Akhya was impatient with waiting, so he kindly reminded, "The tribute gifts sent by officials from various places are still being loaded into the carriage. I'm afraid we're leaving.
It’s still some time before departure.”
Ahaya came back to her senses and her eyes paused on his face. She recalled that she had met several times but had not communicated much with Mr. Lin. At this moment, taking a seat made her remember a certain person.
"I want to stay with His Majesty... I will probably enter the palace." She lowered her eyes and forced a smile, "I know nothing about the palace, and my future is slim. I can see the wind and snow at this time, so why not do more?
See you."
"What I will see in the future may no longer be this simple snow scene, but only wind knives and frost blades."
Lin Heng was startled and frowned slightly, with a rare hint of disapproval showing on that gentlemanly face: "It's not yet known what the girl's future will be, so why should she feel so sorry for herself?"
"Daxu's court has much looser control over women than the previous dynasty. Letters can often be sent out. If the maids have family members, they can see each other every month."
As a minister, he should not talk about the harem unreasonably, but he still explained to Ahya in a low voice, "I have a younger sister who is also in the palace, and you might be destined to make friends."
sister, Lin.
Ahya closed her eyes slightly, and her mind made a sound.
There was indeed such a person in the palace in her previous life, but it was a pity that she had not met much and was not familiar with Miss Lin.
She raised her eyes and smiled at Lin Heng.
The Lin family may be useful to her.
"Hearing Master Lin say this, I feel more at ease." Aheya bent her eyes and showed her kindness to Lin Heng, "But why should I befriend your sister and not you?"
"My lord and I have met each other several times, aren't we still considered friends?"
"If Miss Ahaya thinks highly of Lin, Lin will naturally not refuse." Lin Heng pursed his lips and sighed, seemingly helpless.
"Then let's just say it, Mr. Lin." Aheya smiled and thought for a while, "Sir Lin just said that it would be some time before the convoy set off. If you have any words to kill time, you can lend me this book to pass the time.
of."
"If Miss Ahaya wants these, Lin will propose to His Majesty to find them for you." Lin Heng lowered his head slightly and did not agree directly.
Giving each other books is still too intimate between a man and a woman.
Ahaya had no intention of pressing forward. After hearing what he said, she cupped her hands and said generously, "Thank you so much, Mr. Lin. If I ask for it from His Majesty, he will definitely make fun of me again. Take the opportunity to collect some."
The good thing is that it's easier for you to ask."
When she talked about Xie Jie, her eyes smiled unconsciously, and the distance between the two of them suddenly became that of ordinary friends.
"girl."
At this moment, Wen Xiang came over and saluted her.
"Your Majesty has called you over."
"Okay." Aheya wrinkled her nose and started to walk away, then stopped and turned around, tilting her head towards Lin Heng, "Are we considered friends?"
"Naturally." Lin Heng looked at her with clear eyes, like a clear spring in the mountains.
"It's just that if a girl wants to make friends with others in the future, she still has to rely on her own good intentions."
Ahaya was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he had already seen through her deliberate intentions, so she pursed her lips.
"Since you knew that I was approaching deliberately, why did you still..."
"Because the girl's eyes are clean."
The corners of Lin Heng's lips raised, revealing a reassuring smile.
Ahaya paused and suddenly smiled.
She bent down to him, saluted, turned around, took steps, and started running.
"Master Lin must not break his promise!"
Her tone was cheerful, but much more real.
All that was left on the snow was a string of footprints and a few branches of red plum blossoms in full bloom. This chapter has been completed!
