"Wait." Xiao Jue's voice sounded.
Shen Qiaochen thought he still had something to say, so he stopped and looked at him questioningly.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Jue let out a long sigh, and slowly approached Shen Qiaochen under Nan Xing's surprised gaze. He slowly raised his hand, put the hood of Shen Qiaochen back on, and then patted her again. her head,
"Go ahead. "
…
Does your head look good in photography? Otherwise, why do people always like to pat her on the head?
After being speechless for a moment, Shen Qiao gave Xiao Jue a blank look, turned around and left with Nan Xing waiting at the door.
Since meeting Ji Qingyuan last time, Shen Qiaochen has never been to Zui Jiangyue again. On the one hand, it's because I haven't made time for the time being, and on the other hand, it's also because of my sincerity and trust in Ji Qingyuan.
So now, most of the dignitaries in Beijing only know that Zui Jiangyue has suddenly changed its business model, but they don't know that this place has also quietly changed its owner.
Of course, whether everyone knows it or not is not within the scope of Shen Qiaochen's consideration for the time being.
Nan Xing led the way, and Shen Qiaochen followed. When he went upstairs, he looked downstairs and saw that for just a moment, there seemed to be more guests in Zuijiangyue than before.
The private rooms on the second and third floors also had their doors closed. Occasionally, someone could hear the sound of people passing by, and some even had servants dressed as guards guarding the door.
Because of the farce just now, Shen Qiaochen really didn't want to attract more attention. Fortunately, the people around Xiao Jue seemed to be considerate and seemed to be very familiar with Zui Jiangyue's structural route. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, he chose someone There are few places to walk.
So much so that when they arrived at the door of the room Xiao Jue mentioned on the fifth floor, apart from those working in the store, they had not seen many people along the way.
Nan Xing pushed the door open first and checked it carefully before asking Shen Qiaochen to come in.
Shen Qiaochen walked into the room and saw that the layout of this room was completely different from that of the private room downstairs.
Most of the elegant rooms on the second and third floors are open to the public all year round, so the appearance inside is roughly the same, mainly simple and elegant.
Most of the rooms above the third floor belong to one person for a long time, so the interior furniture styles are all based on the guests' preferences.
But in the room Shen Qiaochen was in at this time, most of the things he saw were black, and the furniture was made of fine rosewood. Other than that, there were not many decorations. Those nobles I couldn't even see any of the calligraphy, painting, incense and the like that my young master liked.
The whole room seemed empty and deserted beyond Shen Qiaochen's expectation. It was actually very different from the unruly young man who usually ran around the capital.
It is said that a person's personality and habits are closely related to the environment in which he grew up. The young prince of Prince Yong's Mansion was born noble, and his temperament was as flamboyant as his appearance. He was used to a life full of flowers. Shen Qiaochen thought that Xiao Jue's room, no matter how poor it was, should be as noble, prominent and magnificent as his status. .
Is this room not to his liking?
But after thinking about it carefully, Shen Qiaochen immediately denied this conjecture. The feeling of this room was obviously very similar to the style of Xiao Jue he saw tonight.
"Is this your eldest son's room?" Shen Qiaochen asked.
Nan Xing nodded when he heard this, "Yes, it was decided by our master."
Shen Qiaochen found the name she called Xiao Jue very interesting.
Generally speaking, for a noble family like theirs, regardless of whether they are male or female, others will refer to them by their highest status and title.
For example, when Shen Qiaochen herself met for the first time, others would always call her: the legitimate daughter of General Jianwei's mansion, not the fourth girl of the Shen family.
So just now Shen Qiaochen called Xiao Jue the young prince or the prince, but Nan Xing said "master."
It's actually correct to call them that, but in a wealthy family like theirs, there are too many masters in the family. If they were all called like that, wouldn't it cause chaos?
unless……
Shen Qiaochen looked at Nan Xing, who was standing aside with her head bowed, and saw that she was sixteen or seventeen years old, tall and slim. Although she is a woman, she is not wearing the clothes of a maid like Zifu Qingdai, but an inconspicuous black outfit. Her long black hair is not tied into a complicated bun like a woman's, but simply With her hair tied high behind her head, she looked very capable. At the same time, Nan Xingzhou didn't have any jewelry on her body. Even the black boots she wore on her feet were the same color as her clothes.
Look at her, she looks very charming, but she doesn't wear makeup, and her temperament is as cold as ice. Her appearance seemed too beautiful, but she didn't seem to take it seriously.
Along the way, Shen Qiaochen also noticed that Nanxing was very neat and decisive in her actions, coupled with her elusive skills.
That kind of people……
Shen Qiaochen had never seen such a woman, but Shen Qiaochen had seen many similar men around Xiao Li.
The noble family has always had the habit of raising secret guards and dead soldiers in private. Even the Shen family should have many such people. However, now that General Shen and his wife are not in the capital, the people in the capital should be handed over to In the hands of Mrs. Shen or the second young master Shen Qiaoqi.
Thinking about it this way, the upright Nan Xing standing in front of him must be one of them.
Shen Qiaochen walked slowly to the table in the middle of the house and sat down, poured herself a cup of tea, and asked casually: "Nan Xing, are you from Prince Yong's Mansion?"
Nan Xing was silent for a moment, and replied sternly: "Return to Fourth Miss, this subordinate is the master's person."
…
Well, Shen Qiaochen also knew her identity.
But speaking of it, it seems that Xiao Jue has been calling her Miss Shen Si from the first time he saw her.
…
After taking a sip of hot tea, Shen Qiaochen looked around. Nan Xing thought for a while and said clearly: "The clothes for washing have not been delivered yet. Please wait a moment, Miss Four."
Shen Qiaochen nodded, "I hope I can still see the float for a while."
Nan Xing looked at the hourglass on the side and said seriously: "The subordinate should have gone down to get the clothes, but the master temporarily changed his subordinate to take you upstairs."
After saying that, she thought Shen Qiaochen was really worried about running out of time. Seeing the "worried" looks on the fourth girls of the Shen family, she also thought that her master seemed to be giving special treatment to the Shen brothers and sisters.
So as the most dedicated subordinate around his master, Nan Xing lowered his voice for the first time and comforted,
"Four girls, don't worry, the master's people will move very quickly, and they will definitely have time for you to see the lanterns."
Shen Qiaochen just felt a little tired. When she heard the comfort in Nan Xing's words, she couldn't help but feel warm in her heart. The cold-looking girl in front of her was also a gentle person.
Shen Qiaochen raised his head and showed a soft smile to Nan Xing who was standing aside.
"I understand, thank you, Nanxing."
