One day, he got so annoyed that he asked her if she could be quiet.
The little girl answered very decisively: "Yes, I can."
"Then stop arguing." The little girl shook her head as soon as Shi Xingyi finished speaking.
Under his questioning gaze, the little girl slowly spoke again: "I can stop arguing, but I will only listen to my husband. If you agree to be my husband and marry me when you grow up, I will stop arguing."
Shi Xingyi really didn't want her to bother him anymore, so he nodded in agreement: "Okay, I promise you, I'll marry you when I grow up. Now you have to be good and quiet, okay?"
The little girl nodded seriously again, and they did not quarrel for the rest of the time. When it was time to part, the little girl reached out and hugged him, and told him that she would definitely marry him when she grew up, and told him to wait for her.
…
Shi Xingyi really didn't expect that after so many years, the other party would still remember it, keep it in mind, and come to him to fulfill his promise.
As Shi Xingyi pondered this, he suddenly realized something was wrong! The girl hadn't been in contact with him for many years. If she really cared that much, why hadn't she come to see him before?
It was obvious that she didn't even notice him. Perhaps she had heard about him and that's why she was here. She just happened to find him here and thought she could use him, so she came out and said those things to him.
She didn't care about him at all; all those things were just flower petals to deceive him.
After all, they had never met before, so why would she suddenly come out and say she liked him?
They had only just met, and she had only touched him briefly, but…
Shi Xingyi touched his heart, which was beating extremely fast, but he felt inexplicably sad.
The thought that she was just using him made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
…
After Shi Xingyi finished his bath, his servant Xue Li noticed that his young master didn't seem very happy. A hint of doubt flickered in his eyes.
Although the young master usually has a cool and aloof demeanor, he wouldn't show his unhappiness so obviously. "Young master, are you unhappy?"
Xue Lan clearly sensed it too, glanced at her younger brother, and secretly kicked him to signal him to be quiet.
Xue Li glared at her brother again, not understanding why he kicked her.
Shi Xingyi simply said calmly that he was fine. At this moment, Xue Lan spoke up again: "Young Master, the young master of Canglan Pavilion has arrived and is waiting for you."
"I understand." After saying that, Shi Xingyi walked directly into the courtyard.
Shi Lan, who was sitting in the courtyard with a cup of tea in her hand, immediately stood up when she heard the noise.
"Long time no see." It had been three years since their last competition.
Shi Xingyi sat down on the stool next to him and slowly said, "We're setting off tomorrow. Why aren't you resting and preparing properly, Young Master Shi? What are you doing here?"
Shi Lan looked at him seriously and said, "They don't know, but do you think I don't? Linjing Pavilion has always had close ties with the Shadow Sect. I don't believe you would take action against them."
"so what?"
Shi Lan sighed when she saw his indifferent expression, and then said, "Although I am completely absorbed in martial arts, I am not entirely unaware of what is happening in the outside world."
