The dim palace lantern illuminated the little girl's pretty features, and her eyes, which were always clear and clean, were now filled with shyness and panic. He was so close and had good hearing, he could even hear her heart starting to beat wildly.
Xiao Lin remembered the crazy things the soldiers said when he was in the army.
They say that if a woman likes a man, her face will turn red and her heart will beat when she is with him.
The little girl's heart was beating fast, and her face turned red in an instant.
That kind of red reminded him of the peaches on the branches in summer, and the sweet and alluring smell made his eyes darken a bit.
"A Li..." he continued, "just now when Fatty Xu took Wen Jin'an away, you tried to persuade her. What did she say?"
He asked himself and answered, "Oh, she said that if you dare to stop her, she will tell you what she just saw... Ah Li, what is she referring to?"
Su Li was already blushing. Hearing this, he became even more embarrassed. He just waved his hands and said: "It's nothing! She always likes to talk nonsense! Your Highness, please don't take it seriously!"
"But after she said those words, you really didn't dare to speak!" Xiao Lin lowered his eyes slightly, admiring the blush on her face, which slowly spread from the pink cheeks to the snow-white slender neck, and her nose The sweet peach fragrance in the room seemed to be getting stronger and stronger, "What secret does Ali have that he is afraid of being known by others?"
Su Li was already extremely ashamed of this matter, but now that he heard him mention it deliberately, she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl in!
"No! There is no secret!" She waved her hands hurriedly, fearing that Xiao Lin would think about what she was worried about, so she gave a reason in desperation, "Actually, yes, yes..."
"What is it?" Xiao Lin asked Shiran.
"Yes..." Su Li scratched his head anxiously.
However, in his desperation, he couldn't think of a suitable reason for the moment. Just as he was scratching his head, Xiao Lin's voice sounded again.
"I thought about it carefully, and Fatty Xu happened to bump into the two of us together... By the way, what were we doing at that time?"
Su Li had a guilty conscience and was afraid that he would mention this matter. When he heard this, his face turned red and almost bled!
Xiao Lin looked at the peach-like face, and her heart suddenly dropped.
If what those soldiers said is true, then this little girl must also like him, right?
It's just that she is too shy to face it.
It doesn't matter, he has plenty of patience, just take his time.
Although Gu Qiancheng was very good and a rare talent, he still had to grab the wife he deserved.
After all, this is a major event in his life!
"Ali, why don't you speak?" He deliberately teased her, "Why is your face so red? And your heart..."
He stretched out his finger and poked her chest gently, his voice became deeper and warmer, "Ali, your heart is beating so fast!"
Su Li's heart was like a deer, but after being poked by him, he almost jumped out of his chest, and his brain began to get knotted. He didn't know what to say for a moment, so he just stammered and repeated his words: "Quickly...quickly?"
"Quick!" Xiao Lin nodded vigorously, "Do you want to test my heart? My heart is as fast as yours!"
"No!" Su Li hurriedly tried to put his hands behind his back.
But Xiao Lin's movements were much faster than hers. Before her little hand could move, he had firmly grasped it and placed it on his chest.
His chest was broad and warm, and his heartbeat was strong and rapid, as if someone had taken a small soft hammer and tapped her palm. It was numb and itchy. The familiar numbness spread to her limbs at an alarming speed. The bones spread, and the body began to become weak again, and I wanted to push into Xiao Lin's arms...
This reaction was caught off guard and Su Li was completely unable to control it. However, she knew that this was wrong, and relying on her remaining rationality, she struggled to withdraw her hand.
She felt that she had tried her best, but instead of getting farther, the distance between the two was getting closer!
The next moment, she was pulled into Xiao Lin's arms, and the cold and bitter breath quickly filled her nose.
Along with this breath came Xiao Lin's low and hoarse voice: "Ali, I..."
The three words "I like you" have been hidden in my heart for two lives. Just when I was about to declare them to my mouth, there was a rush of footsteps!
"Your Highness, is that you? Jiang Fei suddenly went crazy and killed..."
Li Rufeng's words got stuck in his throat midway through his words.
Is it too late for him to go back now?
Obviously, it's too late!
Because Su Li jumped out of Xiao Lin's arms like a frightened rabbit.
Xiao Lin's arms were empty and he fell short again.
He turned to look at Li Rufeng.
Li Rufeng waved his hands in panic: "Your Highness, I really didn't mean it! I didn't expect you... Miss A Li is too young to see you. She only saw your back and thought you were alone! If I knew You are making out with Miss Su..."
"No, no, not affectionate!" Su Li covered his face, "No! You misunderstood! We...no! We are discussing how to deal with the Queen and the delegation tomorrow...right? Your Highness!"
She tugged on Xiao Lin's clothes and looked at him with a pleading look on her face.
Xiao Lin lowered his eyes and looked at her.
He didn't understand why Su Li denied it.
Although his words of love had not been spoken just now, as smart as she was, she must have understood what he meant!
But she chose to avoid it again!
Is she... shy?
Xiao Lin sighed, but finally followed her wishes and said vaguely: "We were discussing tomorrow's countermeasures... What did you just say? Who did Jiang Fei kill?"
"Su!" Li Rufeng replied, "According to the inner guard guarding the house, the two have been quarreling since they were imprisoned. During this period, they even fought. During the fight tonight, he went crazy and dragged Su His head hit the railing! The inner guard quickly shouted to stop, but who would have thought that in just a short moment, Su lost her breath!"
When Su Li heard this, he ran away!
The Su family was an insider of Su Ning's death.
Su Li had interrogated two people before, but they both said the same thing. Even if they were tortured, they still denied it and never admitted to killing Su Ning. They also said that Su was Su Ning.
Two people who were greedy for life and afraid of death suddenly had such a temperament, which puzzled Su Li.
But before she could ask in detail, something happened in Yuncheng and Jingcheng at the same time, so she naturally had no time to deal with these two people.
After returning to Beijing today, Su Li still wanted to ask again.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Lin made him feel uneasy.
This relationship between a man and a woman is a mistake!
It made her confused, and she even forgot this most important thing!
…
dungeon.
Even with the internal guards controlling him, Jiang Fei still couldn't control the rage in his heart. He roared angrily at Su on the ground: "Bitch! It's all your fault! It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, how could I be where I am today? A normal situation?"
Su Li and Xiao Lin arrived just in time. When she heard this, she couldn't help but sneer: "Is the Marquis finally willing to admit that she is not my mother?"
