Chapter 283: Resentment
In silence, with the back of her hand burning, Tan Yu could hear her own heartbeat.
The surroundings seemed to suddenly become hot and stuffy, and Tan Yu blushed.
"Hmm." Tan Yu responded in a low, almost inaudible voice.
Looking at her blushing face, Zhui Yun's heart surged, and he said solemnly: "When I have time, I will report to the master and marry you."
Tan Yu hummed again in a low voice.
She agreed!
Zhui Yun reached out and held Tan Yu in his arms with excitement.
The hearts of the two were beating at the same time. Tan Yu leaned lightly on Zhui Yun's chest and felt the tremor in his chest.
"Tan Yu." Zhui Yun called in a low voice.
Tan Yu raised her head and questioned with her eyes.
Zhui Yun's eyes fell on her lips, and his throat rolled unbearably.
Finally, he bent down and kissed Tan Yu's rosy cheek.
Tan Yu's heart was beating like a drum, and she pretended to look at the sunset in the sky, but she had no intention of appreciating it.
Under the quiet sunset, Leng Xing sat by the river with bent legs, her right hand casually resting on her knee, staring at the water in a daze.
Zhufeng quietly approached her and said something to make conversation: "Where is Zhuiyun? Have you seen
him?" Leng Xing ignored him.
"There are big fish in this river." Zhufeng also looked at the river, very interested.
She actually liked watching fish as much as he did.
Leng Xing still ignored him and frowned impatiently.
Zhufeng shook his head: "Are you still angry? It's been so long, is it really that serious?"
Leng Xing turned his head and glared at him.
Zhu Feng was used to it, so he sat down beside her and said, "How can you calm down? Should I let you beat me up? Or should I treat you to a drink?"
This was the most sincere way of apology he could think of.
He had never seen anyone as angry as Leng Xing. It had been almost half a year, and she had never given him a good look, and she didn't even talk to him.
This was nothing, after all, Leng Xing had always been like this, and she rarely talked to other people, but was particularly cold to him.
Zhu Feng understood that Leng Xing was still angry with him.
Hearing about the fight and drinking, Leng Xing couldn't help but think of the kiss, and said shyly: "Are you done yet?"
Seeing that she was finally willing to talk to him, Zhu Feng's face was happy, and he hurriedly said: "I just want you to calm down."
"What does it have to do with you whether I calm down or not?" Leng Xing was full of impatience, and wanted to get up and leave.
"Hey." Zhu Feng subconsciously reached out and grabbed Leng Xing's hand.
Summer is hot, and men's hands are even more dry and hot. Leng Xing seemed to be burned, and hurriedly knocked Zhu Feng's hand away.
"If you move your hands and feet again, I won't be polite."
Zhu Feng glanced at the back of his hand that was slapped red, and said: "I don't mean anything else, I just want you to stay."
"Then go." Leng Xing glared at him, with undisguised disgust.
Seeing her eyes, Zhu Feng felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, and after a moment of silence, he got up and left.
Looking at Zhu Feng's low back, Leng Xing was slightly stunned.
When did he become so obedient?
His ears were finally quiet. Leng Xing frowned and looked at the river, but saw that the originally calm river surface was rippling and could no longer be quiet.
Leng Xing picked up the stone at hand and threw it into the river impatiently, causing even bigger waves.
When the sun completely set, Zhu Feng went and came back.
"Here." Zhu Feng handed a bunch of peonies to Leng Xing.
Leng Xing refused and said coldly, "No."
Zhu Feng glanced at the gorgeous and beautiful peonies, then looked at Leng Xing who was unmoved and said, "You don't like flowers?"
Isn't it said that girls like flowers?
Zhu Feng looked at Leng Xing and saw that she was wearing a tight dress, her black hair was tied up high, her face was heroic and cold, she didn't wear any makeup or jewelry, and she was no different from a man. He immediately understood.
She is not a normal girl.
"If you don't like flowers, I'll give you something else next time." Zhufeng threw the flowers on the ground and asked tentatively.
Leng Xing glanced at the peony on the ground and asked, "Why do you want to give me something?"
"To apologize as a gift." Zhufeng was very sincere.
Leng Xing frowned, "No need."
"Why? You won't forgive me?" Zhufeng also frowned.
A kiss, is she going to hate him for the rest of her life? Not really, right?
Leng Xing glared at him angrily, unable to speak out of anger.
Zhufeng looked confused, not understanding how he had offended her again. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard Zhuiyun calling him, so he had to give up.
"Let's go back." Zhufeng said, and walked away.
Anyway, Leng Xing has been angry for several months, so it doesn't matter if he has anything to say next time.
Seeing Zhufeng walking away without looking back, Leng Xing quickly picked up a peony and hid it in her clothes.
On the way back, Leng Xing carefully protected the peony, but when she took it out in her room at the palace, the delicate petals were still crushed and bruised.
Looking at this pitiful and delicate flower that was destroyed, Leng Xing poured out the tea in the teapot, filled it with clean water and inserted it.
The teapot and peony looked awkward no matter how you looked at it.
But Leng Xing didn't care. No one came to her room, so she just liked it.
Days passed one after another, and it was already June.
That evening, Yu Lan brought Zhuang Yan to have dinner with Old Madam Zhuang.
Seeing Yu Lan absentmindedly stirring the porridge in the bowl and not eating a single bite for a long time, Madam Zhuang asked, "Has Lord Zhou not returned to the capital yet?"
Yu Lan nodded and looked at the porridge in the bowl with a gloomy mood.
Madam Zhuang comforted him, "Since he has not sent a letter back, it means that he is on his way back to the capital. There are still four days left, so wait a little longer."
After hearing this, Yu Lan blushed slightly and pursed her lips and said, "I'm not worried about this, I'm afraid that he will have an accident."
"You worry too much and become confused. If he really has something wrong, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely send a letter back to the capital." Old Madam Zhuang saw it clearly. "
Eat, you look so thin, your wedding dress won't fit you anymore. "
Yu Lan came to her senses, blushing as she scooped up some porridge and put it into her mouth.
Zhuang Yin heard the conversation between the two and gave Yu Lan a piece of pork ribs and said, "Mother, eat more, otherwise Uncle Zhou will be distressed and say that Yin'er didn't take good care of you."
Yu Lan: "..."
"Our Yin'er is really sensible." Old Madam Zhuang smiled with relief.
"Grandma, eat more too, you've lost weight too." Zhuang Yin gave Old Madam Zhuang another piece of pork ribs.
"Okay. "Mrs. Zhuang smiled, but her eyes were red.
In a few days, Yu Lan and Zhou Boxu would get married, and Zhuang Yin would move to the princess's mansion, so she wouldn't be able to see him every day.
She couldn't bear to let go of her beloved grandson.
Mrs. Zhuang lowered her head, not wanting Yu Lan and Zhuang Yin to see her abnormality, so as not to make them feel uncomfortable.
At night, Yu Lan was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, and heard the rain falling outside.
Yu Lan took out the plum blossom hairpin from under the pillow and held it in her hand.
I don't know where Zhou Boxu is, whether he has fallen asleep at this time?
Why did he go ? It has been so long, has it not been smooth?
Thinking about it, a tear slid down Yu Lan's eye.
Zhou Boxu, you must come back safely.
The sound of raindrops was soothing, and it lulled people to sleep.
Yu Lan fell asleep holding the plum blossom hairpin, with a frown on her face.
The summer rain comes and goes quickly. When Yu Lan got up the next morning, the ground was still wet, but the sun had already appeared in the sky.
The birds on the branches made clear sounds, and the family of five jumped among the leaves, so happy.
Yu Lan looked at it, and her mood improved a little.
"The spirit bird is announcing good news, it must be that the adults are coming back. "The maid Muchun came into the room carrying toiletries.
Yu Lan curled her lips and sat down in front of the dressing table to put on her makeup after washing.
