Chapter 963 When did you meet her?
He won the first place in the imperial examination and refused to be appointed as an official and returned home immediately. Is he really willing to do this? Not to mention him, even Qiao Xuan was unwilling to do this!
Besides, she didn't want him to regret it in the future.
"We are not the ones who did anything wrong, so why should we bear the consequences? It's too early to say anything now, so let's just wait and see."
Shao Yunduan smiled: "Yes, it hasn't come to that yet! Let's wait and see! But every word I say comes from my heart."
Qiao Xuan felt a little sweet and a little bitter in her heart. She gently held his hand and whispered, "Let's talk about it later. I, I can't bear to part with you either."
She was also unwilling to be separated from him.
"That's good! In that case, I have nothing to be afraid of!" Shao Yunduan hugged her in his arms.
Qiao Xuan laughed softly.
She suddenly cried out "Ah!" again, stood up straight, and looked up at him: "That Miss Tian is the one who fell in love with you, right?"
Shao Yunduan vaguely felt that something was not right, but there should be nothing wrong with what he said. He nodded hesitantly: "Should be, right?"
"So, when did you meet her?"
"ah?"
"From previous rumors, this Miss Tian must be a proud and conceited person. It is impossible for her to fall in love with you just by looking at you from a distance. I think something must have happened to make her interested and feel special. She saw that you were a candidate for the imperial examination, so she said those words!"
"But how do you know her?"
Shao Yunduan: “.”
"This—I don't know either!"
Qiao Xuan obviously didn't believe it, and her eyes became more and more resentful at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Shao Yunduan panicked and held Qiao Xuan's hand tightly: "My wife, please believe me! How could I -"
He suddenly thought of the chance encounter in the opera garden.
Qiao Xuan had been looking at him. Seeing him stop talking halfway, she couldn't help but glare at him. She felt a little sour for no reason in her heart, "Go on, keep talking."
Shao Yunduan had a splitting headache and was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He said carefully, "My lady, don't be angry. I remember now. I must have seen her - but I didn't do anything! I just saw her!"
Qiao Xuan didn't blink, her expression was clear: I don't believe it!
"I picked up a piece of brocade handkerchief—"
"Why are you picking it up? You pick up something like this!"
"I'm not! I just think that if something like that is picked up by someone with bad intentions, it will inevitably be bad for the girl. We were at the Liyuan party at that time, and there were countless candidates waiting for the exam. I was just soft-hearted! I picked up the handkerchief, and soon a pair of master and servant dressed as men came and seemed to be looking for something. I..."
Shao Yunduan spoke out a series of words quickly, like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube. It was a relief that he spoke so fluently.
Fluency has its advantages, and you can tell at first glance that it is not edited.
"I only said two or three words to her master and servant! Really, I swear!"
"If I had known that this would cause such a big trouble, I shouldn't have meddled in other people's business!"
"I shouldn't have given the handkerchief back to them. I could have burned it afterwards."
"Hey, my lady, don't be angry, don't be angry. This - this is all my guess. It is not certain that Miss Tian is the master and servant." He really didn't know.
Qiao Xuan felt a little unhappy and pinched him: "Who told you to meddle in other people's business? Apart from this time, are there any other cases?"
"No, no!" Shao Yunduan shook his head repeatedly.
