The moment he said these words, Shang Ruyi clearly saw Yu Wenye's eyes flicker.
At this moment, she didn't know whether she was feeling happy or something else, maybe both.
Fortunately, she finally captured his heart for once.
What made her mood even more complicated was that Yu Wenye had indeed hidden something from her, and among the things he had just told her, she just didn't know which one it was.
Is it the Crescent Princess, or what?
She has enough keen sense to know that there are still some things in Yu Wenye's feelings for Princess Crescent that she can't understand. She will never forget that when he was in Yanmen County, he looked at Princess Crescent. There was an indescribable but unshakable persistence in her eyes. It was a persistence that she still hadn't realized even though she had experienced a moment of skin-to-skin contact with him, and even though the two of them were connected to this day.
What is he obsessed with?
Seeing his long eyelashes slowly falling down, completely covering his cold and deep eyes, even the flash of light that just flashed away, Shang Ruyi said softly: "Can't you tell me?"
Yu Wenye asked, "Will you tell me?"
His rhetorical question was clear and cold.
Shang Ruyi's throat was blocked and she finally fell silent. Yu Wenye looked at her with a trace of sarcasm and desolation in his eyes and said, "It seems that we still have something to hide from each other."
These words made Shang Ruyi feel a little cold.
She didn't even know whether she should be disappointed in herself or him this time, or maybe he also had this conflicting mood.
Just when the two of them were facing each other in silence, the waiter from the shop came up again, followed by a rich, well-dressed middle-aged man. Shang Ruyi recognized it at a glance. He was the boss of Tinghelou. He saw the two of them leaving. When he arrived at the door of the private room, he nodded and bowed and said with a smile: "Two distinguished guests, I'm sorry."
Yu Wenye said, "What's wrong? There's still one dish that's not served."
The boss said: "Dear guest, the government just kidnapped a man who had fled from the shop. Now, they insist on closing the shop for further investigation. I can only apologize to you two and go back for the time being. Today's food and drinks are free!" Next time, I will personally serve as the host and apologize to the two distinguished guests."
It turned out that he was here to see off guests.
The boss was also very discerning. He could see that the two of them were well-dressed and that they were both rich and noble who could go up to the second floor to sit in a private room. He couldn't afford to offend him, so he came up to apologize in person. It just so happened that the two of them had nothing to say. When his appetite was gone, Yu Wenye nodded to Shang Ruyi, then stood up, straightened his clothes, and said, "Then, let's go."
Just as the two of them lifted the bead curtain at the door and walked out, the boss who was standing at the door nodded and bowed when he saw Shang Ruyi, and was suddenly stunned: "Huh?"
Shang Ruyi's heart skipped a beat.
In fact, she has been here more than once. When she comes here, the boss usually doesn't receive her in person, but she remembers the boss's appearance because the last time she came here, Chu Yang drove away all the guests and let her people stay. He went downstairs to recharge and took her to the second floor. Later, when she was leaving, the boss was waiting downstairs, and it was at that time that the two of them met. ….
At this moment, the boss looked at her with a shocked expression, obviously recognizing her.
But immediately, as if he was worried that he would get into trouble, the boss hurriedly lowered his head and said repeatedly: "Dear guest, please go away slowly."
Yu Wenye looked back at him.
Shang Ruyi also looked a little nervous, and when she met his gaze, she broke into a cold sweat for a moment, but after Yu Wenye took a look, his eyes only flickered for a moment, but he didn't say anything, and still turned around and walked away.
Shang Ruyi hurriedly followed.
After walking downstairs, Yu Wenye paid for a few dishes, and the carriage stopped at the door. When the two were about to board the carriage, Yu Wenye suddenly stopped and turned to look at the other side of the long street.
Shang Ruyi said: "What's wrong?"
He said nothing, only waved to the coachman and asked him to wait, and then walked towards the side of the long street. At this time, Shang Ruyi's heart
Li seemed to feel something, and had some bad premonitions, but she still followed immediately.
After a while, they came to a fork in the road, turned around, and entered a small alley.
This alley is dark and damp because there are not many people passing by. The corners are covered with moss and there is an unpleasant musty smell. As soon as you walk in, even the sunlight dims.
Inside, there were two people.
A young man in gorgeous clothes helped a lame old beggar slowly walk to the depths of the alley. The old beggar put down the crutch under his arm and said gratefully: "Thank you very much, young master."
The young man smiled and said: "It's nothing. Old man, if your legs are not good, don't walk around. Be careful of being bumped into."
When I heard the voice, it turned out to be Yu Wencheng!
Shang Ruyi opened his eyes in surprise - shouldn't he be studying in school at this time? Why here? Moreover, looking at the concerned expression on his face, he was still facing an old beggar! It has been more than half a year since Shang Ruyi married into Yuwen's family. This child's face has been cunning, indifferent, disdainful, and even ferocious, but he has never had such a kind and caring look, which even made her feel a little bit... I dare not recognize each other.
Is this the same Third Young Master Yuwen who gave the whole family a headache?
What made her even more uneasy was——
Just when Shang Ruyi was feeling overwhelmed, he heard the lame old beggar smile bitterly and say, "Young master is joking. The old man has no money or food. If he doesn't come out to beg for some coins, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive the whole day."
"oh?"
Yuwen Cheng asked: "How much money can you ask for in a day like this?"
"Well, looking at the old man's mood in the past, it's God's blessing to be able to get one or two."
"That's it..."
Yuwen Cheng thought for a while, reached out and took out a piece of silver from his arms, and said, "Then, do you want this?"
The lame old beggar probably had never seen so much money in his life, and his eyes suddenly went straight: "This, this is -"
Yuwen Cheng weighed the silver in his hand and said, "There are ten taels of silver here, do you want it?"
The old beggar asked for nothing, holding his hands in his hands: "Yes, yes!"
Just when his hands were about to touch the silver, Yu Wencheng suddenly retracted his hand, hid the silver behind his back, and said, "However, I can't give you so much silver in vain."
The old beggar put on a flattering smile: "Then, how can the young master be willing to give it to me?"
Yu Wencheng raised his head and thought for a while, then suddenly snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "Let's do this. If you give the young master a spanking, the young master will give you one tael of silver. There are a total of ten taels here, so I will spank you ten times, okay?" ?".
