Fang Jinxiu even suspected that she was dreaming.
How come I ended up in the capital and met Ning Yunzhao?
Shouldn't this person have disappeared from their sight?
"Because I was already in the capital." Ning Yunzhao said with a smile.
He also didn't expect to see Fang Jinxiu.
When he saw Fang Jinxiu, he thought of the past, the fast walk at night, and the hesitant secret meeting in the middle of the night.
At that time, I didn't care about anything else because of the matter of Jinyun Tower, but now thinking about it, this behavior is indeed scary.
No wonder Miss Fang was frightened.
But Miss Jun was never afraid.
She is certainly different from others.
Thinking of this, he became a little nervous again.
Fang Jinxiu's surprise faded a little, and was replaced by displeasure.
Of course she knew that Ning Yunzhao was in the capital.
"What does your presence in the capital have to do with us?" she asked. "Do you have something to tell her again?"
The incident at Jinyun Tower happened eight hundred years ago.
Ning Yunzhao nodded.
"Yes, I have something to tell her." He looked serious.
Fang Jinxiu was somewhat annoyed.
"What do you want to say to her?" she said, looking at the dim streets and the flickering red lights. "Do you think it's appropriate this late at night?"
Is it suitable?
Does it mean it's inconvenient for men and women?
Ning Yunzhao smiled.
"What's the inconvenience? My son often comes to visit Miss Jun and drinks together..." Xiao Ding couldn't help but say.
Ning Yunzhao stopped him and didn't let him finish, but Fang Jinxiu was already shocked.
What? Come here often?
Still drinking?
"Who is it?" Miss Jun's voice came from behind, "What's the matter?"
As she spoke, she came over. She originally thought that the person was seeking medical treatment or medicine, but after not seeing Fang Jinxiu come back for a while, she became worried and came out to check.
Hearing her voice, Xiao Ding waved his hand and called out "Miss Jun".
Miss Jun walked over and saw Ning Yunzhao standing outside the door.
"Mr. Ning, it's you," she said.
Ning Yunzhao smiled at her.
"It turns out that Miss Fang San has also come to Beijing. I was so busy studying these days that I didn't even know about it," he said.
This sounds strange. Do you want to know why I am going to Beijing?
Are you familiar with him?
Fang Jinxiu stared at him, then looked at Miss Jun.
It seems that they are very familiar with each other.
Fang Jinxiu took a step back and stopped talking.
"Mr. Ning, do you have something to talk to me about?" Miss Jun asked.
When she asked this question, she saw that Ning Yunzhao seemed a little embarrassed. Her eyes swept over Fang Jinxiu and the unclear man who was peeking out from the back hall.
He wanted to figure out some things these days, so he didn't go out again, and didn't deliberately inquire about the news of Jiulingtang. Unexpectedly, when he came back after figuring it out, there were more people in Jiulingtang.
Of course it's good to have more people around, it's more lively, and she won't be so lonely.
It’s just that some things are not convenient to say.
But this is not something shameful, and you can say it out loud.
Now that you have figured it out, you don't have to worry about others thinking too much.
Ning Yunzhao smiled and was about to speak, but Miss Jun spoke first.
"Come in and talk," she said, extending her hand.
Yes, he is still standing outside the door.
"Hey, Master Ning, you're here?" Liu Er came out and said to him, "Are you just passing by on your way back from your uncle's house?"
It just so happened, what a coincidence, that from the moment they suddenly met on the streets of the capital, their meeting was always so accidental.
I happened to pass by and saw her in the inn.
I happened to pass by and invited her to have dinner with me.
What a coincidence, I passed by and asked you with concern.
It's all God's will, not man's, and has nothing to do with him.
Ning Yunzhao looked at Liu'er and smiled.
"No." He said seriously, "I'm here to see your young lady."
Liu'er said "oh" and asked casually. By now she had become numb and accustomed to Ning Yunzhao's appearance. It didn't matter whether it was a coincidence or he came on purpose.
Fang Jinxiu turned around and went in, calling Liu'er.
"Has my gift been put away for me? Is there anything missing?" she asked.
Liu Er pouted.
"Who cares?" she said, but followed him in anyway.
Chen Qi was still standing behind the curtain, trying to peek his head out, when Fang Jinxiu grabbed him and pulled him inside.
"...That's Mr. Ning Shi...Isn't it said that he dislikes Miss Jun..."
The rest of the words disappeared instantly, and it was obvious that his mouth was blocked.
Silence returned to Jiuling Hall.
This silence did not make people feel restrained or awkward.
"Sit down." Miss Jun said with a smile, extending her hand to invite him, and even turned around to pour tea.
Ning Yunzhao did not sit down, nor did he want to pour tea.
"No, I'm just here to talk and then I'll leave," he said, indicating that he wouldn't talk for long.
Miss Jun stopped and looked at him quietly as she was told.
Her expression was calm and her eyes were brighter, making her like a star in the Jiuling Hall in the night.
Ning Yunzhao thought about what he was going to say and clenched his hands slightly at his sides.
This was the first time he had done this.
I don’t know if this is the right thing to do or not.
Although he had been thinking about this for nearly a month.
That day, he stood outside the bamboo forest of the Imperial College and questioned his own feelings. He missed his teacher's lecture for the first time.
He pressed his chest, feeling the shock of having his heart probed into the deepest recesses of his being.
Just like now.
The longest time he spent studying the most difficult scriptures was three days, and he spent seven days studying this heart palpitation.
This is the hardest thing in the world, and also the easiest thing in the world.
But fortunately, he is a smart and decisive person. After studying it, he confirmed that he was interested.
Every young man has a time when he is moved, and has dreamed of the woman who makes him fall in love.
Before Ning Yunzhao was attracted to someone, he had never dreamed of a woman who could attract his attention. But when he thought about it squarely, it was clear that the woman who attracted him was her.
The somewhat troubling thing is that this woman has some complications with him.
She was attracted to him at first, but he didn't realize it.
Now that he is attracted to her, what will she think?
He could think clearly about his own decision, but he couldn't think clearly about her decision.
He was a straightforward man. Since he couldn't figure it out, he decided to ask. So he chose a suitable time to make a suitable invitation.
He looked into her eyes calmly.
"On the fifteenth day after tomorrow, would you like to go to watch the lights with me?" he asked.
Light viewing?
Miss Jun thought, of course it was possible, she was going to go see the lights anyway.
"Okay," she said, with some ease, "Let's go to Mr. Liu's house for dinner first, and then go to see the lights."
Then I thought that he was also in a foreign country and not with his parents.
"You are going to your uncle's house for dinner? Where shall we meet then?"
She answered crisply, "Okay," and asked softly where they were going to meet, but Ning Yunzhao was not happy about it.
Her answer was so blunt that she hadn't thought about the meaning of his question at all.
Maybe for some people, it is okay to pretend to be confused and vague at this time, and wait for things to come slowly in the future.
But he was a person who demanded precise answers to everything, just like the meaning of scriptures, which could not tolerate any ambiguity, so he decided to ask this question clearly.
"Are you really willing to watch the lights with me?" he looked at her and asked again.
His voice was clear, yet trembling slightly, which made his voice a little hoarse, adding a bit of excitement to the sound in the quiet night.
It's just watching the lights, what's the point of being willing or unwilling?
Miss Jun was stunned.
Is it necessary to reiterate and ask again?
What needs to be reiterated is not just the words, but the meaning behind them.
Meaning.
Miss Jun looked into the eyes of the young man in front of her. The eyes were bright as fire and filled with indescribable emotions.
Miss Jun suddenly realized.
