Originally, I wanted to use Zhao Qiulan's hands to add some "color" to Xia Luotong's face, so as not to attract his attention later, but I didn't expect that this good-for-nothing Zhao Qiulan would be so useless! It was solved in a matter of seconds!
Not only that, it also made her lose face. If she had known she wouldn't have counted on them in the first place!
Thinking that the stunning and beautiful woman had entered Yusheng Pavilion just now, and Mr. Chu didn't know if she had arrived yet, she tightened the handkerchief in her hand and quickly turned around and entered Yusheng Pavilion.
The crowd gradually dispersed, but no one noticed that behind the window of a private room facing the street in Yusheng's attic, a pair of charming peach blossom eyes witnessed the whole process, with some interest rising in their eyes, thinking of what they had just happened to see picture, a seductive smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
The besieged woman made a strange move before leaving, which made him curious about the meaning behind the move and the woman herself.
He raised his hand, and a black-clothed guard suddenly appeared in the room.
"Let people keep an eye on Miss Zhao to see if anything happens after that."
The secret guard disappeared again after taking the order, but he continued to look out the window with a cynical smile on his face.
In order to satisfy his curiosity, he didn't mind spending some effort, otherwise what fun would there be in living in a stagnant water?
Xia Luotong entered Yusheng Pavilion and was greeted upstairs by Manager Zhao himself.
"Thank you so much, shopkeeper Zhao just now." Xia Luotong thanked him sincerely.
After all, Yusheng Pavilion is open for business. Shopkeeper Zhao is willing to offend people for her, which is enough to show that he values and respects her. Moreover, in order to protect her, shopkeeper Zhao never mentioned her name from beginning to end.
"You're welcome, Miss Atong. This is what I should do." Shopkeeper Zhao had a smile on his face. It was obvious that he was in a good mood and was not affected by what happened just now.
Although today's new product launch conference has not yet begun, he is very confident in the new products designed by Xia Luotong. Coupled with his master's attitude, he will firmly protect Xia Luotong no matter what considerations he has.
"Shopkeeper Zhao must be busy with something else, right? You don't have to accompany me, I can just go to the private room by myself." Xia Luotong knew that shopkeeper Zhao was very busy. Although he had only been to the private room once, he still knew the way. of.
Shopkeeper Zhao thought for a while and then did not refuse. He indeed still had a lot of things to do: "That would be rude. Mr. Zuo is already waiting for the girl in the private room."
Xia Luotong didn't expect that Zuo Xiyan would come, and come so early, but thinking that Yusheng Pavilion was the property of Zuo Xiangfu, he didn't think much about it and went straight to the private room where he stayed last time.
Pushing the door open, he saw Zuo Xiyan already sitting by the window, looking intently at the book in his hand.
The cool breeze of late autumn blew into the house through the window lattice, picking up the dark hair beside his ears and playfully crossing his jade-like cheeks. It was so quiet and beautiful, so picturesque that no one could bear to disturb him.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, she didn't expect that his profile was so handsome, no wonder he could make so many ladies in the capital crazy about him.
Looking at Zuo Xiyan who was serious and focused, Xia Luotong became a little interested in teasing him. She suddenly wanted to see if there was a time when he couldn't hold on to this gentle and fairy-like mask?
She tiptoed towards his back. In order not to be discovered, she even used her body skills to minimize the noise she made while walking.
When she stood still behind him, she suddenly stretched out her small white hand and patted his shoulder!
"ha!"
Xia Luotong's face was full of excitement, but the expected situation did not happen. Zuo Xiyan slowly turned around and looked at her with a helpless smile on his face, with unnoticeable indulgence in his eyes.
"Atong, you are so naughty."
Looking at her bright eyes, due to excitement, they seemed to be filled with broken light, shining straight into his heart, just like looking at the starry night sky, making him unconsciously want to indulge in it.
She seems to be getting more and more beautiful...
I still remember that the first time I saw her on the street, she was almost trampled by a galloping horse. At that time, she was sallow and thin, and her complexion was extremely poor. Although she was still beautiful, she was like a dusty pearl, not at all as stunning as she is now.
During this period of time, she may have been better nursed back to health, and she was rejuvenated, and finally gradually showed her amazing appearance, which was no longer difficult to cover up.
In fact, he had noticed her when she first approached the private room, but seeing how sneaky she was after entering, he was a little curious about what she wanted to do, so he pretended not to notice and continued reading.
Unexpectedly, she wanted to scare herself?
If someone else did such childish behavior, he might be displeased, but if she did it, he didn't feel repulsed at all. Instead, he felt a little light in his heart, like stepping on cotton.
"It's not fun, you weren't even scared." Xia Luotong's face dropped with boredom, and he walked straight to sit opposite him.
"You want to see me be scared?" Zuo Xiyan was a little confused.
"Yeah, you've been wearing a fairy-like expression all day long, which seems a bit boring. I want to see what your other expressions look like!" Xia Luotong rested his chin on his hands and stared at him with interest.
Zuo Xiyan was helpless, but she was keen and noticed him under that gentle mask, but he was already used to this, and I'm afraid he wouldn't change.
Her eyes seemed to have an invisible magic power. She looked at him with such light, which always made him unable to resist. He wanted to raise his hand to touch her eyes to cover up the bright starlight that made his heart throb. .
Resisting the urge in his hands and suppressing the unfamiliar feeling in his heart, he coughed lightly and changed the subject.
"Have you been feeling well these past two days? Has the toxicity been reduced?"
"Yes, but it's only been three days, not so fast." Xia Luotong didn't notice his strangeness and answered truthfully.
Seeing that the worried look on his face had not diminished, she simply stretched out her white jade wrist in front of him across the small table.
"Doctor Zuo, please check my pulse!"
As she spoke, she deliberately put on a pitiful and pleading look, which made Zuo Xiyan laugh again.
Seeing her quirky look, and thinking of the touch of his fingertips when he checked her pulse last time, he subconsciously raised his hand and put it on her wrist.
The pulse condition did not change much from last time, but overall it was improving. He breathed a sigh of relief and retracted his hand with some nostalgia.
"If you need any medicinal materials, just tell me directly." Thinking of the surprise in her eyes when she saw the two medicinal plants last time, she was a little worried that she would delay treatment because she could not buy suitable medicinal materials.
"You're so kind! I'm so lucky to have met you!" Xia Luotong couldn't help but sigh.
When these words fell into his ears, he couldn't stop his heart beating a little faster, and he subconsciously looked into her eyes...
