Chapter 487 It turns out he is shy too
"Sister Cui, the ointment has been applied. Wait for it to be absorbed. After washing it off at night, clean your face again. Finally, apply the ointment again." After Xiao Jiuyue gave her instructions, she stood up and said, "Sister Cui, there is someone who wants to see you."
"No." When Cui Yao heard Xiao Jiuyue's words, her face covered with ointment was visibly panicked. She couldn't help but tighten her grip on Xiao Jiuyue's hand and said, "Yuer, I, I can't see anyone like this."
"Sister Cui, he came all the way here to see you." Xiao Jiuyue raised her hand and gently placed it on the back of her hand. She could clearly sense her panic and said soothingly, "Just treat it as an old friend meeting, let's talk. If you're worried about being seen, you can wear a veil."
Xiao Jiuyue's voice was unhurried, and she looked at her with a firm gaze: "He has waited for many days for this day. If Sister Cui really doesn't want to see him, I can tell him."
Xiao Jiuyue said this, but also said that he had been waiting for this day for many days. Cui Yao fell silent instantly. After a long while, he said, "I'll see you."
Cui Yao plucked up her courage and put on the veil. No matter what, there had to be a result.
Xiao Jiuyue breathed a sigh of relief, and went out to tell Xiao Jialing the good news impatiently. She was really worried that Cui Yao would refuse to see her elder brother.
Originally, she wanted to take Cui Yao directly to see her eldest brother Xiao Jialing, but her eldest brother disagreed. He said, "If I can't get Miss Cui's consent, I would rather not meet her."
Xiao Jiuyue: "..." At that time, she felt that her elder brother must be terribly in love with Cui Yao, and Xiao Jialing didn't want to do anything that would make Cui Yao feel uncomfortable.
At the same time, she was even more looking forward to Xiao Jialing and Cui Yao being able to achieve a happy ending.
Xiao Jiuyue conveyed the meeting place, which was the reception room next to Cui Yao's yard. There was also a Zen room for meditation and meeting.
"Brother, the Cui family is really going too far." Xiao Jiuyue first complained to the Cui family, and at the same time, she reminded them: "I just told the Cui family that we won't get married. I later explained it to Sister Cui, but Sister Cui didn't seem to believe it. You should work hard and win Sister Cui's heart as soon as possible."
"You little girl." Xiao Jialing was originally very nervous, but now seeing Xiao Jiuyue clenching her fists and cheering him on playfully, he couldn't help but smile. He took a deep breath and said, "The Cui family hurt her so much. I guess I know what she's worried about."
Xiao Jiuyue's eyes moved: "Brother, then you should try to marry my sister-in-law as soon as possible, so that mother won't have to worry about you all the time!"
Xiao Jialing raised his eyes, his throat moved, and his gaze fell on the door that could not be more ordinary. He was not afraid when he was exiled, but now, a sense of worry rose in his heart.
"Brother, I'll go over there. You can open your heart and talk to Sister Cui." Xiao Jiuyue didn't say anything else. Whether Xiao Jialing could impress Cui Yao depended on him.
"Donggui, let's go." Xiao Jiuyue kept Luokui, who wanted to read gossip, and took Donggui for a walk.
"Miss, I heard that there are plum blossoms in the backyard of Qingfeng Temple. I wonder if they are in full bloom now." Donggui looked at Xiao Jiuyue walking aimlessly and suddenly spoke.
"It's just the beginning of winter, so it's definitely not blooming yet." Xiao Jiuyue replied casually.
Dong Gui led Xiao Jiuyue to the backyard and said, "Miss, how about we go and take a look? Maybe there are many varieties of plum blossoms and they are blooming early?"
Xiao Jiuyue looked at Donggui steadily without saying a word. Donggui lowered her head and did not dare to look at Xiao Jiuyue at all. She had a feeling that Xiao Jiuyue saw through her.
"Then, let's go and take a look." Xiao Jiuyue's words made Donggui breathe a sigh of relief, but then, when she looked at Xiao Jiuyue, her heart skipped a beat again.
"Donggui, you have been with me for three years, right?" Xiao Jiuyue chatted with Donggui as he walked towards the backyard.
"Yes, three years." Dong Gui answered nervously, and then expressed his sincerity: "Don't worry, Miss, I will only follow you in this life. As long as you need me, I can go through fire and water for you at any time!"
She had no bad intentions, she just wanted to help her master and bring them together.
"Okay, you are all the closest people to me. I will not treat you unfairly in the future." Xiao Jiuyue chuckled.
"The eldest lady treats us well, we naturally know that." Donggui touched the gold bracelet in her hand. This is a house!
In the backyard, it was only early winter, and the plum blossoms hadn't bloomed yet, but many buds were about to open, and she could vaguely see one or two blossoming. She couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be that Shengjing is even colder, so the plum blossoms bloom earlier?"
In Hongdu, plum blossoms cannot be seen at this time of year. They will only appear when it is a little colder.
"Perhaps they knew the young lady was coming, and the flowers wanted to bloom for her to see." Dong Gui said with a smile. She looked around, and when she saw a dark figure approaching, Dong Gui stepped forward and apologized, "Young lady, the Third Prince asked me to bring you here to see him. When I return, I will voluntarily deduct one month's salary from your salary."
Before Xiao Jiuyue could speak, Donggui had already stood a few meters away from her very consciously.
Xiao Jiuyue raised her eyes. In the plum blossom forest, Jun Lie's ink-black clothes were particularly eye-catching. His cold facial features seemed softer than usual perhaps in this plum blossom forest.
"Jiuyue." Jun Lie's cold voice sounded. His voice was low. When he called her name, the last word "Yue" was low, like a feather brushing against the tip of her heart.
"Third Prince." Xiao Jiuyue lowered her eyes and saluted. The eye contact she made on the street yesterday seemed to make her heart beat faster.
"Jiuyue, I specially asked Donggui to invite you to Merlin. I haven't had a good talk with you since I came back from Yongzhao. The cotton armor is very useful and the explosives are also very effective. Thanks to these things, I won the battle." Jun Lie took a step forward, his eyes never leaving her.
That quick glance yesterday wasn't enough.
"Congratulations, Third Prince." Xiao Jiuyue offered her blessings politely, saying, "The people are very happy. There will be no more wars, and no more innocent people will die or be injured."
Xiao Jiuyue said this sincerely. She raised her eyes and got closer to Jun Lie. The burning gaze made her mind clearer.
"Why did the Third Prince come to Qingfeng Temple today?" Xiao Jiuyue's gaze fell on Jun Lie's face. He had strong facial features, a tall and cold nose, and lips of moderate thickness, which made people want to taste him.
"I came here to accompany Sixth Sister." Jun Lie had just finished speaking when he saw Xiao Jiuyue's eyes dim a little. He blurted out his thoughts: "I just want to see you."
"You just returned to Shengjing? How did you know I came to Qingfeng Temple today?" Xiao Jiuyue raised her eyes and looked at him steadily, her gaze falling on his red ears. It turned out that he could be shy too.
