The man was confused, "How did Qing'er know that I was smiling?"
"Although I can't see your face, you smile and there are stars in your eyes. How could I not notice it as I've been looking at you?"
Jiang Qingjiu picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea for the man, and then picked up the cup beside his table, "I'll toast you with tea instead of wine. Everything I want to say is in the tea. You can't repay the kindness of saving your life, then... Repay slowly."
After the man clinked glasses with Jiang Qingjiu, the shopkeeper and several waiters served all the dishes.
"Your Majesty, all the dishes have been served. Please take your time."
"What are the rules for eating here? Do you eat and sleep without talking?" Jiang Qingjiu asked while eating.
"No, Qing'er can do whatever he wants."
"You treat me as a friend, so I'll ask you a question. If you feel embarrassed, you don't have to answer if you don't want to."
The man's eyes signaled her to ask.
"Why do you keep wearing a mask? I'm just curious. If it touches your sadness, you can choose not to answer."
"I can tell you whatever Qing'er wants to know."
Jiang Qingjiu felt happy, put a hand on his chin and blinked to express that he wanted to continue listening.
"It's nothing, it's just that I, the city lord of Yusang City, need to maintain a sense of mystery in order to maintain the peace that has never been broken in Yusang City for a long time."
"Then can I see what you look like?" Jiang Qingjiu couldn't help but be curious and asked the question that he had been most concerned about.
"Qing'er, can you wait a little longer? I will definitely not hide anything from you in the future."
"Okay. Then I'll wait for you until the day you are willing to take off your mask in front of me." Jiang Qingjiu didn't force it. No matter how close people are, there are things that they can't tell each other.
Although she didn't know what he had to hide, she believed that he would do what he said.
The man was surprised by Jiang Qingjiu's hearty agreement, and quickly figured it out.
Yes, this is Qing'er.
Kind, beautiful, transparent, and tough.
"This food is as delicious as ever. Eat more. I'm happy when I can eat more, and I'm even happier when I see others eating more."
"Okay." The man smiled fondly.
"Will you participate in the competition to find a bride?" Jiang Qingjiu asked curiously.
"Yes, that's why I'm here."
"Why? Is it because you like me?" Jiang Qingjiu asked in a nonchalant manner.
"Yes, I want to be your consort." Jiang Qingjiu didn't expect him to admit it directly, and answered straight away.
"Cough cough cough!" This time it was Jiang Qingjiu's turn to be shocked.
"Qing'er, drink some water." The man poured a glass of water into Jiang Qingjiu's cup and handed it over, slowly patting Jiang Qingjiu on the back.
"Then you have to work hard. There are many people participating in the competition to recruit a bride. You have many competitors. Will you back down?"
"Then I'll queue up in Qing'er's heart first."
"No problem. Come on! You are at the front of the queue now, and you are very promising." After Jiang Qingjiu said this, he even laughed.
The corners of his lips raised slightly, and he lowered his eyes to look at her, with eyes full of tenderness and doting, "Okay."
Jiang Qingjiu accidentally overstuffed herself, but still didn't finish the meal. She waved to the shopkeeper to pack the rest of the meal.
"I want to get a little pet recently. A Zhou, please accompany me to the zoo." Jiang Qingjiu looked at the man expectantly.
"Okay. Whatever Qing'er wants to do, I'll accompany you."
"Then let's go." Jiang Qingjiu was very happy that the man could say that.
"It's not far away. How about we walk over and have a bite to eat?"
"good."
The two stood side by side, one red and one white, and their backs seemed to match each other perfectly.
Jiang Qingjiu's face was very recognizable, and many people recognized her when she appeared.
I saw the princess of Fengli Kingdom, her hands were like catkins, her skin was like gelatin, her collar was like a cricket grub, her teeth were like a gourd rhinoceros, her head was raised and her eyebrows were raised, she was smiling sweetly, and her beautiful eyes were looking forward to it.
Who is the man wearing the iconic mask next to him if he isn't Mr. Qingzhou!
Everyone was whispering to each other and talking about it.
When the two of them passed by, they pretended to be nonchalant and concentrated on their own affairs.
When the two of them walked out of sight, everyone stared at their backs without blinking.
Everyone tacitly refused to come forward to disturb the two of them, and all showed aunty smiles behind them.
Everyone has the same idea in their hearts. It seems that they are almost inseparable. This is the future prince-in-law.
This is how mysterious Mr. Qingzhou is!
"If you feel uncomfortable being watched by so many people, let's go in a carriage." Jiang Qingjiu was afraid that he would endure the discomfort.
"It doesn't matter, I don't even have time to be happy. Because it's with you."
Ginger Sake feels that the sweetness is a bit too high today!
Qiongxian Tower is originally located on the outskirts of Beijing, with beautiful scenery and delicious food, so not far away is the largest zoo in Fengli.
After seeing military horses, tigers, the king of beasts, lions, leopards, wolves and other more aggressive animals, Jiang Qingjiu's eyes suddenly lit up.
"It's such a small one, but it's actually together with a tiger, lion, and wolf. It's incredible!" Jiang Qingjiu couldn't help but express surprise.
"It's called Jiu Jie Lang, an iron-eating beast in ancient times. It looks like a bear and a cat, black and white, and has two big dark circles under its eyes." The man said.
"It's cute when it's cute, and it's fierce when it's fierce. It must be a very spiritual little guy. I decided to keep it. What do you think?" Jiang Qingjiu really likes this little guy.
"As long as Qing'er likes it."
Jiang Qingjiu ordered Zhutao to feed the little guy the food just packed by Qiongxianlou.
Jiang Qingjiu squatted down and watched it eating happily, which made him happy too.
"What would you like to name this little guy?"
"We saw it together and decided to raise it. Let's give it a name together."
"This little guy is so naive. Bamboo is indispensable in its living environment, so let's call it a little mangosteen."
"Little mangosteen, what do you think?"
"Oh, it actually nodded. It's so cute."
When the man saw Jiang Qingjiu's smile, he felt that all the beauty in the world was not as good as her smile.
"Ah Zhou has already agreed, so you have no reason to disagree, right?"
The man couldn't help but smile, "That's what Qing'er said."
"Little Mangosteen, little Mangosteen..." Every time Jiang Qingjiu called out, Little Mangosteen looked at Jiang Qingjiu, as if responding to her.
The entire zoo echoed with Jiang Qingjiu's silvery laughter and the man's gentle echo from time to time.
"Azhou, I'm very happy today. Thank you. Let's go back."
"good."
Zhutao and Qingshan, who were not far behind, looked at each other silently.
Has the master forgotten that he has a maid/guard?
"Are you tired from wearing the mask?" Zhutao looked at Qingshan with a curious expression.
Qingshan blurted out, "Tired... What are you tired of? Dustproof, dustproof, haha."
Qingshan almost spoke his mind and breathed a sigh of relief. It was so dangerous!
She is so powerful, she almost broke my defense!
From now on, talk less and do more!
