Under the weak and fragile nails were the flowing cloud patterns of the embroidered bag, but Xiao Yichen couldn't take his eyes away from the simple pattern.
He held his breath and raised his eyes to look at her.
She lowered her head, unable to see her expression, only her reddish ears facing the sky were clearly visible.
Xiao Yichen became interested in having sex, so he didn't pick it up and said with a smile: "Fourth girl, help me tie it up."
Shen Nanbao was startled for a moment, almost thinking that she heard wrongly. She raised her head slowly, her tongue felt like boiling water, and she stammered, "Your Majesty, your Majesty, I'm afraid this is inappropriate."
Xiao Yichen looked at the anxious little lady in front of him, whose cheeks were flushed. A smile appeared in his eyes, but his tone was serious, "What's wrong? Isn't it appropriate for the Fourth Miss to give me Fan Ying?"
The delicate knuckles suddenly clenched the embroidery bag tightly. Shen Nanbao looked at the playful curve of Xiao Yichen's mouth in astonishment, and suddenly felt that he had really shot himself in the foot.
What is wrong with me that I want to braid Fan Ying for him?
After so many confrontations, don't you know that he is a person who likes to play tricks on others?
It's a good thing now, forcing myself into such a dilemma.
It was simply the two of them and Feng Yue in this elegant room now, and there would be no other rumors. It would be better to cut through the mess quickly and suit his wishes, so as not to drag them together and make things more likely to happen.
Having made up his mind, Shen Nanbao, like those utility soldiers who stepped onto the battlefield, developed a warrior's heart and grinned, "Then I'll trouble you, Commander-in-Chief, to cooperate."
Xiao Yichen probably didn't expect that she could be so fierce and dare to do these intimate things for him that only couples can do.
The word 'couple' flashed through his mind, making Xiao Yichen feel extremely uncomfortable.
He even felt that the hands stretched out to the belt were on fire, making him feel uncomfortable all over and just wanted to retreat.
But his feet were stuck to the ground and he couldn't move even half a step, just like he couldn't move his eyes. All his attention was fixed on that small area, watching her fingertips like bamboo shoots flying nimbly, and soon He tied it and hung it firmly around his waist.
Xiao Yichen looked down. It was a complicated necklace made of five-color silk threads, trimmed with bright red ropes. It fell down and swayed with the wind. It seemed to have swayed into the bottom of his heart, rippling out circles and circles. waves.
He thought that was the end, but he didn't expect her face to turn red and she mumbled for instructions: "Commander, please raise your hand."
Xiao Yichen was like a three-year-old idiot at this time. He had no idea of his own and just raised his hand at her 'order'.
The hand is still as he remembered, impeccably made of porcelain, and the exposed wrist and protruding joints also have the urge to marvel at the exquisiteness of creation.
Shen Nanbao couldn't help but outline his outline in his mind. He thought that it must be such a pair of hands to match such a noble, scholarly, elegant, rebellious and charming face.
She came to a conclusion like this, suppressing her pounding heartbeat, and casually pulled out a thread of life and tied it to his wrist.
It was at this time that Shen Nanbao noticed that his forearms, which were as silver as snow, were covered with pale white scars, one after another. He couldn't count how many there were just by looking at them like this.
But what is undeniable is that it is exactly what Fang Guan said and what she thought.
He had lived a miserable life, at least it had been extremely miserable. The pain of annihilating his family and the despair of his father's death must have shaken him countless times during those ten years, trying to crush him into the mud.
Now, he has risen to prominence, but he has a lonely heart, so he wraps himself up in rich clothes and exposes what others think is the splendor.
And those, those countless times in the past that made him nostalgic, all became the disappointment and loss that made him wake up alone in the middle of the night.
That's why he came to such a grand occasion all alone.
Because there are no elders to weave such ornaments for him, I wholeheartedly pray for him.
Thinking of this, Shen Nanbao suddenly felt a little more indescribable sourness and guilt. She said for no reason, "I'm here to extend the life of the palace commander."
A quiet word struck into Xiao Yichen's mind like a thunderbolt.
He looked at Shen Nanbao in front of him in fear, her words just now echoing in his ears.
That sentence was very similar to his father's instructions before his death.
'Just think of it as your father to protect Yan Mu from disaster and save his life. '
One after another, it pierced directly into his brain and was bound to destroy his soul.
But slowly, an inexplicable emotion surged up in his heart. It rolled into his throat and blocked his mouth, making the tip of his nose sore. Even the tears could not be controlled and were about to burst out.
But he is the commander of the front division of the palace, and he has always been calm and cold. Even if the sky falls and the enemy's troops are rushing in front of him, his expression will not change. Then he watches her tie the life-long thread and forcefully She kept her face open and smiled and said: "How come the fourth girl's craftsmanship is not as exquisite as when Master Shen was born?"
Shen Nanbao glanced at Xiao Yichen with some embarrassment, revealing the palm of his hand that was still intact, "Commander, let's see what kind of exquisite flowers can be made with such hands?"
Yes, she was injured.
After he found out about it at that time, he even thought about finding a reason to come to the house to visit.
He simply calmed down at that time, thought rationally about the consequences of doing so, and then asked Fang Guan to bring the medicine.
Xiao Yichen looked down and saw that his palms, which were as tender as tofu cubes last time, were bruised and bruised. Although they were all scabbed, it didn't stop him from asking, "Does it hurt?"
The tone was too gentle, so different from the way Shen Nanbao knew him, so that she stayed there for a long time, staring at him blankly.
Xiao Yichen was a little embarrassed to be seen. He coughed and found his way down the steps. "It must be painful. I have seen my subordinates palming others before. They screamed really hard, so it must be painful." .”
What kind of analogy is this? Does it mean that she is a criminal?
The sadness that had just risen suddenly disappeared like an hourglass turned upside down.
Shen Nanbao glanced at him, "No, it's all bloody and bloody. You can see the flesh and bones. How can it not hurt?"
Originally it was just a strong point, but Xiao Yichen stared at the scars on her palms carefully.
After staring at it for a long time, it seemed as if she accidentally brushed against a sloping branch on the side of the road while walking. She retracted her hand impatiently and muttered: "Fortunately, everything is fine. Those hardships that have been endured through gritted teeth will definitely become Countless steps to climb.”
These words can be regarded as self-pleasure, and they can also be regarded as comforting for him.
Who knows, Xiao Yichen nodded and gave another attitude, "It's not the hardship that we endured that became the ladder to climb higher, it was the persistence that we gritted our teeth and endured that became the bargaining chip for our glory. As for those evil people, there is no need to feel sorry for them. Giving adds insult to injury and indifference.”
Shen Nanbao was slightly startled and looked at him.
He stood in the halo, and the golden light of the sun pierced through him, making her dizzy.
Suddenly the drums started to sound so majestic, accompanied by cheers from the crowd everywhere, that it almost lifted the roof.
Only then did Shen Nanbao belatedly remember the purpose of her trip. She didn't dare to go on a ride. She was afraid that if Shen Nanyi went back for a long time, her grandmother would become suspicious. Who knew that before she opened her mouth, the corridor outside was noisy? They started shouting loudly.
An enigmatic smile appeared on Xiao Yichen's moon-like face, "The fourth girl is always cautious, why do you prefer to wear a little tail when traveling?"
Little tail?
When did she wear a little tail?
Still so partial?
Shen Nanbao was surprised when a high-pitched and sharp sound came out of the corridor that was boiling like a pot of water, accompanied by the sound of people walking.
"Madam of the Duke's Mansion, it's hard for you to come to me for such a trip, but I really have no choice. My grandmother is still talking to the wife of Zhizhou Tongpan, and my second sister has gone to watch the boat race with Mr. Liang. I am the only one left. The ants on the ground are crawling around and I don’t know what to do. What if the fourth sister really has something to do with Commander Xiao... Wouldn’t this ruin the reputation of our Shen family and the second sister’s marriage!”
When she was stunned, Shen Nanyi had already pushed away the waiter and broke in through the door. She saw Shen Nanbao and Xiao Yichen standing opposite each other, with a successful and knowing smile on their faces.
"Fourth sister! You really..."
By the second half of the words, Shen Nanyi had changed her face, pretending to look distressed, beating her chest and feet, "How could you, how could you..."
The lady of the Duke's Mansion who arrived later was also a little confused when she saw this scene. She was confused and didn't know what to say.
As a result, this place became Shen Nanyi's personal fight. Her eyes turned red and she shed big tears. She cried out in the loudest voice of her life, "Earlier, Uncle Xie came to the house and mentioned that he wanted to marry you. I was still confused. Well, why did you refuse without blinking an eye? It turns out that you have your heart set on Commander Xiao..."
"It's worth taking this trip today. Not only can you see the dragon boat race, but you can also taste other families' trivial matters!"
The sound embedded in the bones came out from the fan.
Shen Nanbao seemed to have fallen into a cold cellar and froze in place.
All the sounds were inaudible, and all the scenes turned into black and white. Only the pictures flashed through her mind frame by frame, with the most vivid colors, nailing her to the pillar of despair with overwhelming force. superior!
A long figure pulled up to her.
Shen Nanbao slowly raised his head, wearing dark green cloud-patterned shoes, a wide black satin belt, a wide-sleeved robe woven with gold brocade... and finally, that angular face.
Just like in the memory, the heartfelt trust and gentle staying together seemed to have never changed. However, in the blink of an eye, thousands of lights shuttled rapidly through the long river of time. Those old days, countless laughter and laughter, suddenly changed. In the cold rain on the day she died, he sat in front of the bed and drank poison to himself with an indifferent expression.
She fell into a trance and fell into the thick layers of grass. She was covered with injuries and could hardly stand. Countless flames were piercing through her limbs, burning her so hard that she could hardly bear to touch her body. In front of him, he grabbed his collar and asked hysterically.
'Why did you lie to me? Why are you poisoning me? Could it be that the love of more than ten years was all false, and that the pampering you gave me was just to secure my seat in the Hou Mansion? '
The secret hatred in her heart grew wild and wanton, as if a huge wave was about to drown her.
And in front of him, Chen Fangyan was facing the bright sun, smiling lightly and looking at her with the same stunning eyes as when he first met her in his previous life.
"You are the Fourth Miss Shen whom Mr. Shen adopted after living abroad!"
