110 Why refuse?
Xiao Tingyun had a feeling that something was wrong and suddenly wanted to hide somewhere.
Yang Mingzhu glanced at Xiao Tingyun stealthily, secretly wondering in her heart, could he be here to see her? ?
Xiao Tingxue looked at everything in front of him with indifference. The scene seemed to be becoming more and more like the one in his dream, although there were some differences in the process.
"Hey? Why did General Xu go in another direction?"
"Yes! Something is wrong. Miss Li looks so ugly. She looks like she is about to cry!!!"
"Could it be that you really came here for another person?"
"Ha! That's really interesting..."
Li Yunran tried hard to block out those sounds, but they were like the wind, penetrating through every pore and getting into her headphones.
The sound is harsh, like a knife stabbing the heart.
Xu Huaili's back is so broad and heroic, but at this moment, it is so dazzling.
The palm of my hand pinched it tighter and tighter, and the taste was even more bitter than soaking in a jar of bitter lotus seeds.
Xu Jinlan was angry and wanted to say something to comfort her cousin, but her cousin's expression was so ugly that she didn't say it.
Xiao Tingyun's guess was finally confirmed.
Under the gazes of everyone, Xu Huaili walked towards Xiao Tingyun unmoved.
Standing in front of her, he said calmly, "Miss Xiao San, are you free now? I want to talk to you about something."
Xiao Tingyun: ...Can she say that she is busy? . .
Yang Mingzhu and Xiao Tingqi's eyes widened and they looked at each other in bewilderment. What was going on? ? ?
However, Xiao Tingqi knew that Xu Huaili's mother had come to propose marriage, so he was more accepting of this person appearing in front of Xiao Tingyun.
Xiao Tingxue watched coldly, the hatred in his eyes almost turned into substance and shot towards the two of them.
"Wow!!!"
There were exclamations in the venue.
"General Xu actually went to look for the third young lady from the Dingbei Marquis's Mansion?"
"Isn't that the ill Third Miss of the Xiao family?!"
"Oh my god! He actually went to look for her! Miss Li, the sky is falling now!"
A poor orphan and a young lady from a marquis's family. Although this young lady from a marquis's family is a little weak in health, she comes from a good family and her father and brothers are both very capable, so her family has a bright future.
Li Yunran bit her lip, her eyes were red, and there were bloody marks on her hands from being pinched by her nails, but she felt that it was nothing compared to the pain in her heart.
Xiao Tingyun felt a little embarrassed, especially since everyone's eyes were on her and they didn't even look at the hammer.
Jiang Xiao, who was far away, raised his eyebrows when he saw this, finding it interesting.
Xiao Tingyun didn't say anything, and Xu Huaili didn't say anything either, just stared at her quietly.
Xiao Tingqi asked Yang Mingzhu in a low voice, "She doesn't want to talk to Xu Huaili. Should we say something to help her?"
Yang Mingzhu glanced at her and said, "What do you think?"
Xiao Tingqi hurriedly shook his head and gestured to discuss, "How about... you..."
"Get out of the way!" Yang Mingzhu refused mercilessly. After thinking about it, she felt something was wrong and asked again, "Do you know something?"
Xiao Tingqi laughed awkwardly, "There is no inside story, it's just..."
"Just what? Tell me now!"
She knew there must be some inside story, otherwise she wouldn't have said so confidently that Xiao Tingyun didn't want to pay attention to Xu Huaili!
Before Xiao Tingqi could say anything, Xu Huaili asked again stubbornly, "Can you talk to me?"
Xiao Tingyun pursed his lips, feeling unhappy. Did he know how much trouble his actions would cause her? ?
So many people are staring at him, and he just walks towards her. No one will say anything unpleasant to him because he has made a contribution!
In the end, the spearhead will only be directed at herself, saying that she, a woman, deliberately seduced him. No matter when, the malice towards women is much greater than that towards men, especially when it comes to matters concerning men and women, it is more of a topic of conversation.
"I don't think there is anything to talk about with General Xu." Xiao Tingyun remained rational and maintained a degree of politeness.
But what was said was not very pleasant after all.
Xu Huaili naturally heard it and frowned, "I have no ill intentions, I just have something to tell you."
"She has already said that she doesn't want to talk to you anymore, why are you forcing her?" Yang Mingzhu crossed her arms and spoke out in dissatisfaction.
Xiao Tingqi also followed suit, "That's right, don't you have any ill intentions? Look how many people are staring at her now!"
It’s because he walked over here without thinking!
Xu Huaili looked around and indeed saw many resentful eyes, all from girls.
This naturally includes Zhang Hanyue and Li Yunran.
Xu Huaili frowned, he had not considered it carefully.
It's just that he was anxious to see her, especially after hearing what his mother said, he was even more eager to find her to verify it.
"Sorry." Xu Huaili quickly realized his mistake and apologized very quickly.
This apology reduced a lot of the arrogance of Yang Mingzhu and Xiao Tingqi.
Both of them blinked and slowly loosened their hands on their waists.
Yang Mingzhu was still feeling emotional, why did she suddenly apologize? ? Don't even give yourself the chance to fully display your skills!
Xiao Tingyun thought he was looking for trouble, but after hearing his sincere apology, his anger subsided a little. "General Xu, there is no need to apologize. I guess you must have something important to tell you."
Xu Huaili continued, "Yes, it's about what happened when Minister Xiao asked me to go to Zhuzhou to find a chess manual."
Chess record?
Xiao Tingyun was startled, thinking that it was something he had fabricated, but he had no choice but to say so for now, "Really? I guess father must have troubled General Xu again."
"No trouble."
Xu Huaili made a gesture to invite him in, and Xiao Tingyun nodded slightly, got up from his seat, and followed him to a quiet place.
Caixing and Luzhi followed.
When they reached a deserted place, Xu Huaili asked the servants around them to stay away so that he could talk to her alone.
The people around Xu Huaili responded immediately, but Caixing and Luzhi only listened to Xiao Tingyun.
Upon hearing this, they just looked at each other to ask what Xiao Tingyun meant.
Xiao Tingyun thought for a moment before nodding, "You guys go down."
The two of them then followed not too far away.
"What does Xu Huaili want to say to me?" Xiao Tingyun could tell that what he just said was just talk.
The wind was strong at the horse farm. Autumn was deepening, and the grass on the ground was showing signs of yellowing.
Xiao Tingyun smoothed his hair that was messed up by the wind.
Xu Huaili's fingers moved slightly. Her voice was cold, but he was very satisfied. "My mother went to the Xiao family before, and she told me what happened."
Xiao Tingyun asked calmly, "And then?"
Xu Huaili raised his upper jaw and asked in a low voice, "I want to ask you, why?"
"Why?" Xiao Tingyun was puzzled?
"Why did you reject my mother?"
He didn't understand, wasn't he good enough to be her other half?
Why reject this marriage?
When he came back, his mother told him that she had chosen a marriage for him. He was very dissatisfied when he first heard it, but he did not resist.
He knew that he had someone he loved, and his mother's private decision disgusted him.
His mother always respected his decisions and rarely put pressure on him for anything.
But it was difficult for him not to refuse this marriage.
He didn't even want to hear which girl his mother was talking about, and he wanted to leave immediately.
But when his mother said "the third young lady of Dingbei Marquis' Mansion", he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
My heart began to beat violently, it was an emotion of joy, excitement and happiness!
But God always seemed to like playing jokes on him, and his mother's next words made him fall from heaven to hell again.
She refused...
