Chapter 21 - Moonlight
When Bai Chu and Lan Chuan went back to look for Shen Yuzhi, he was so anxious that bloodshot eyes appeared in his eyes: “Chu Hua, how are you? Are you okay?” He looked Bai Chu up and down.
He was the one who brought her out today. When he thought of what accident Bai Chu might have encountered, the self-blame in Shen Yuzhi’s heart was enough to make him suffer.
Bai Chu reassured and smiled at him: “Fortunately, Lianchuan is here, it’s fine.”
Hearing this, Shen Yuzhi frowned, and a bit of solemnity added to his face: “What happened?”
Bai Chu said softly, “Let’s go back first.”
It’s still too late, it is estimated that as soon as she and Lan Chuan left, the corpses in that place have been cleaned up by the hands left behind by Prince An.
She really didn’t want Shen Yuzhi to face off against An Wang. Although Shen Yu had a better chance of winning just by looking at the platform, apart from the mysterious aura of the protagonist, An Wang’s foundation of keeping a low profile for more than ten years was not easy. shaken.
At first, Bai Chu avoided getting involved with the male lead, but the love brain refused to let her go. There was no way, she could only politely put the other party in the position of the enemy.
Standing in the opponent’s position, Bai Chu’s favorability for Bai Yinhua has risen several times. With her around, it is equivalent to grasping the weakness of King An, or the kind that is not very calm.
Shen Yuzhi was afraid that Bai Chu would be frightened. Hearing that she was going to go back to the house, she agreed immediately, thinking about asking Lanchuan what happened at night.
On the way back, Shen Yuzhi looked at Bai Chu’s expression and hesitated.
After a long while, Bai Chu was the first to break the silence: “Unfortunately, we finally came out today, but we forgot the purpose of our trip, and we didn’t buy a flute.”
Shen Yuzhi couldn’t help laughing, and took out a long flute of emerald green from the cuff, with a red brocade Ruyi tassel knot hanging from the tail, and dark lines like a spiral on the top, looming.
“Chu Hua, this is what I ordered a long time ago. I wanted to give you a surprise when I took you there today, but I didn’t expect to catch up with the accident first.” He pursed his lips, “I don’t know if you like it or not. …use it first, if you don’t like it, I’ll take you out next time, and you will choose it yourself.”
Bai Chu happily took it over, but he didn’t know how to do it. At first glance, this flute really looked like a transparent jade: “It was given by the master, how can the disciple say that he doesn’t like it?”
Shen Yuzhi blushed and panicked: “Chu Hua, you don’t need to call me ‘Master’.”
Are they not husband and wife?
Wouldn’t it be a hindrance to ethics if they were called masters and apprentices?
Bai Chu didn’t pay attention to his forehead expression, and admired her new flute happily. If it wasn’t for her having never tried to play a musical instrument before, she couldn’t help it now.
Shen Yuzhi watched her break away from her silent attitude and re-show her face, her smile was bright and not shrouded in haze, and her heart was unconsciously relieved.
When the two arrived at the Shen residence, Shen Yuzhi wanted to send Bai Chu back to the Wutong Courtyard first, and came over to Huanchuan to ask what happened to them today. However, on the way, Mamma Li, who was beside the eldest princess, came to summon the two. Bai Chu was a little tired, and was lazy to deal with the shrewd eldest princess. There was a trace of fatigue on her face, just right to be seen by Shen Yuzhi. .
Although Shen Yuzhi didn’t know who and what happened to her, just by looking at Lan Chuan’s expression, she knew it wasn’t a trivial matter. She was worried that she would be frightened, so she thoughtfully said: “It happens that I have something I want to discuss with my mother, Chu Hua, please Why don’t you go back first?”
Mammy Li thought that he was going to discuss important matters with the eldest princess in private, and it was inconvenient for Bai Chu to follow, so she did not stop her.
Bai Chu and Shuangxi walked to the Wutong Courtyard together.
Unconsciously, she slowed down and admired the scenery on both sides of the road with great interest.
After passing through a small garden, there is Wutongyuan behind.
“Mrs. Third Young Master?” Shuangxi whispered in her ear in surprise, “The one in front seems to be the Second Young Master.”
Bai Chu lightly retracted his gaze, looked up, and saw a slender and elegant figure standing under the door of the Moon Cave, with green vines falling around it, and it happened to fall above him. The view is average.
She is a little regretful, if only she had a camera in her hand at this time.
“Wait here for a while.” Seeing that Shen Yongzhi was alone, Bai Chu whispered to Shuangxi.
“But…” Shuangxi hesitated whether to let the master go there. People come and go in this place. If anyone sees the young lady and the second young master talking alone, they are afraid of rumors.
Knowing her concerns, Bai Chu said with a chuckle, “Don’t worry, since the second young master is here, you know that he is ready. When did you see him approaching Wutongyuan before?”
Shuangxi let go of her hand in a daze, and she didn’t understand much, but she believed in her own third young lady the most, especially after she recovered from a serious illness, she seemed to be a different person, and her words and actions became more convincing.
“Second brother,” Bai Chu walked forward with a smile, “Are you going to Wutongyuan or Mo Tangxuan?”
Shen Yingyi’s black eyes seemed to be able to read people’s hearts, but it was rare that he was not at all aggressive. His casual gaze roamed around her body, and his gentle smile was calm: “Chuchu is back.”
Bai Chu smiled even more: “Second brother really came to me.” She leaned closer again, “In that case, why not just go to my Wutongyuan for the second brother?”
Shen Yongzhi said with a smile, as if joking: “Is Chu Chu really not afraid of being fearful?”
“I’m afraid, how can I not be afraid,” Bai Chu tilted her head, her eyes flashed, and the glow was clear, “But it’s not as good as my love for the second brother.” She spit out a sentence that could be called world-shattering, and rolled her eyes with a smile. , and like an ignorant girl who doesn’t know what to do, “I’m still waiting for my second brother to teach me how to play chess.”
Even though she knew that she was not as innocent and harmless as she appeared on the surface, Shen Yongzhi could not control her heartbeat, lowered her eyes and smiled wryly, “So Chu Chu just likes my chess skills.”
Bai Chu said, “Isn’t your chess skill also yours? Others can’t take it away, so in the final analysis, I still like you.”
In this world, there are really people who can speak so eloquently that one sentence makes the world fall to the bottom of the valley, and another sentence makes the dead tree meet the spring.
Shen Yongzhi shook his head and laughed, and changed the subject: “You are making a lot of noise outside today.”
Hearing this, Bai Chu really felt that he was innocent: “I didn’t do anything.” The next second, he reacted, “Second brother, why don’t you send someone to follow me?”
Shen Yuezhi did not answer her question outright, but gently advised: “Since you know the danger outside, Chu Chu should be more careful in the future.”
Bai Chuming’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Second brother knows who is trying to harm me.” This is an affirmative sentence.
“It’s not just me,” Shen Yuezhi ignored her temptation, and said, “You know it too.”
He sighed lightly: “Chuchu, don’t be naughty.”
In the tone, if you listen carefully, you can hear a little spoiled.
“Oh,” Bai Chu said that he was really wronged, “I didn’t do anything, who knows what kind of lunatic he is.”
There was no explicit word, but both of them knew who this “he” was.
Shen Yongzhi was also a little puzzled. He couldn’t figure out what was King An’s intention to provoke him last time, and he was even more puzzled by trying to find out the entanglement between King An and Miss Bai.
An Wang concealed his strength for so many years with ulterior motives, thinking about pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, right? Such a deep city government was exposed for the sake of Bai Yinhua?
Exposed to the end, he did not hesitate to take risks again and again.
He is also a smart person, Shen Yongzhi thought deeply about the conspiracy theory and didn’t guess what Prince An’s intention was. He sent someone to follow him for more than a month. Until today, when Bai Chu was in danger, Shen Yongzhi was extremely reluctant. I believe that King An is purely…for Bai Yinhua.
Yes, boys who fall in love are so unpretentious.
Poor Shen Yongzhi almost made up his mind about the treasure map left by the previous dynasty on Bai Yinhua’s body. After all, don’t there still have a few remnants of the previous dynasty’s royal family making waves outside?
Thinking of this, Shen Yue subconsciously nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Bai Chu smiled and said: “By the way, second brother, it seems that after you visited Princess Changping’s house last time, you didn’t see Princess Roujia coming to our house again?”
For some reason, Shen Yongzhi felt a little joy at the phrase “our mansion”, but turned to be amused, “I just met once, do you still miss her?”
“I’m just curious,” Bai Chu said slowly, “It’s said that the Princess Roujia’s favorite is the second brother, so why do you hold ill will to my eldest sister? It’s not the one who has a marriage contract with my eldest sister. You?” Her bright eyes twitched, and she couldn’t figure it out, even though it wasn’t mentioned in the original book.
Of course, when watching it, as a female lead, it is not uncommon to be hated by female supporting roles.
But in the real world, there should always be a causal relationship, right?
“It’s me.” Shen Yongzhi smiled slightly, “The engagement with the Bai family was made when my mother was pregnant with me.”
Bai Chu was a little surprised: “Then why…”
Shen Yongzhi’s words were mild: “Because I don’t want to.” The understatement of this sentence made people feel a little chill.
“You…” Bai Chu paused, the original owner’s memories flashed through her mind frame by frame like a movie. Although the childhood memories were vague, they were vague and vague, and she could recall in a trance, the first time Shen Yu saw them At the time, all attention was on Bai Yinhua, and the first sentence was curiosity – “Are you the person I want to marry when I grow up?”
“You lied to Shen Yuzhi,” Bai Chu affirmed, “You lied to Shen Yuzhi that he and Bai Yinhua are the fiancées who have a contract, but in fact, it’s just like replacing Bai Yinhua with me, Because Shen Yuzhi likes Bai Yinhua very much and seems to recognize her, the elders also replaced you with him.”
Suddenly realized with a little emotion: “Second brother, you were not in the capital at that time.”
Shen Yongzhi is only one year older than Shen Yuzhi, and he is able to strategize thousands of miles away, trying to step on his younger brother to jump out of the fire pit of the marriage contract, although Shen Yuzhi is probably quite happy to be stepped on…
She asked curiously, “but how can you guarantee that he will fall in love with Bai Yinhua?”
“Chuchu,” Shen Yongzhi didn’t answer, and gently smoothed her messy temples behind her ears, “What do you want to do?”
“I’ll help you, okay?”
His clear black eyes shone with inexplicable light, which seemed to be both happy and excited. Against the fading sky, he looked a little gloomy.
