Xie Xiuzhu ran up and down the stairs and couldn't help but sigh, "It's pretty good out there. This shop has so many good things and so many customers coming and going. It's much more fun than me being stuck in the inner courtyard all day."
"You don't know how to appreciate the blessings you have." Is there any other girl in the whole city of Yanjing who enjoys such honor and freedom as her?
Xie Xiuzhu snorted, then said excitedly: "I will come to accompany you often in the future!"
Who will accompany whom at the end?
"What are you doing with me?"
"I support you! Don't worry, I'm here. Whoever dares to bully you, I will fight back for you!" Xie Xiuzhu patted her chest with a righteous look.
Wanruo couldn't help but laugh: "I know."
Xie Xiuzhu stayed here for a long time, looking around here and there, and walked around the shop completely. Wanruo sent her away only when she saw that Xie Xianyu was about to come.
Before leaving, Xie Xiuzhu suddenly grabbed her hand and said, "Wanruo, don't you like my big brother?"
Wanruo was stunned for a moment and couldn't answer for a moment.
"I know, if you like him, you will never leave the Xie family. Now you would rather stay outside alone than go back."
If it were in the past, Xie Xiuzhu would never have believed that there would be a woman in this world who didn't like her brother. After all, in her eyes, her brother was upright and polite, gentle as jade, and as clear as the breeze and bright as the moon.
Until later, she found that her brother's temper was getting worse and worse, and his emotions were even more unstable than hers, especially when Wanruo "died". She felt scared just looking at him, no wonder Wanruo wanted to leave.
Xie Xiuzhu solemnly held her hand tightly and said, "Don't worry, I will help you at any time. We are friends for life. But next time you want to leave, you must tell me!"
Wanruo smiled and said, "Yeah."
Xie Xiuzhu finally boarded the carriage for home. Even as the carriage started to set off, she leaned over the window and waved at her: "I'll come see you another day!"
Wanruo smiled and waved goodbye to her.
When the carriage passed by, she saw the tall figure standing in the crowd. She was wearing a moon-white dress with narrow sleeves, a jade crown to tie her hair, and had an extraordinary temperament.
But those eyes were sinister.
Wan Ruo's smile froze on her face.
He strode in. She forced herself to remain calm and asked, "When are you coming?"
"Just now."
What time was it just now?
Judging from his expression, she probably guessed that he came before she saw Xie Xiuzhu off.
Wanruo pulled the corner of her lips and said, "I don't know why Xiuzhu came here. She stayed in the store for half a day. Maybe she hasn't seen me for a long time and she is reluctant to leave me."
Xie Xianyu looked at her with a pair of dark eyes that were so deep that it frightened her and sent a chill down her spine. She had no idea what he was thinking.
He had arrived a long time ago, when Xie Xiuzhu asked her, "Don't you like my big brother?"
She never said she liked it from beginning to end.
He also wanted to ask, wanted to grab her neck and force her to ask, did she not like him? Did she still want to escape?
But after a long silence, he still couldn't speak.
Some words are too harsh, I would rather not listen to them, after all, he is just an ordinary person.
He finally spoke, his voice cold: "Since she likes you, it would be nice to let her come and accompany you more often."
Wanruo looked at him in surprise, somewhat unexpectedly.
How could he let it go so easily? Did he not hear what Xie Xiuzhu said?
But since he didn't listen, why did he look so unhappy?
"Um."
Wanruo didn't bother to think too much, she just nodded in agreement, feeling a little relieved.
But then he asked again: "Did you go to Zhang's house last night?"
