Chapter 1143 Extra Possibilities (6)
Xie Jingxing was wary of her and it wasn't easy for him to get close to her. Shen Miao had no choice but to follow him secretly every day, finding opportunities to speak to him.
Xie Jingxing also knew she was following him, but he pretended not to know. However, Gao Yang and Ji Yushu knew about this and would often make meaningful jokes.
The third day of July is Xie Jingxing's birthday.
Shen Miao naturally knew that the young marquis of Lin'an Marquisate did not have this birthday. However, the Rui Wang of Daliang did have this birthday.
She thought about how she had been angry with Xie Jingxing on his birthday in the real world because of Madam Mei. Later, when they were no longer angry, she had caused Xie Jingxing to be frightened because of the assassin. Since that was the case, she thought, she might as well take advantage of the dream and celebrate Xie Jingxing's birthday in it.
She left home early and booked a banquet at Yanyu Pavilion.
She had many gold and silver jewels, all of which she pawned. A single banquet at the Misty Rain Pavilion cost thousands of gold coins. Jingzhe and Guyu were nearly furious, but Shen Miao refused to listen.
It's just a dream. In reality, gold and silver are external things, let alone in a dream?
She thought that in the evening, she would drag Xie Jingxing over. They could have a good chat over the wine table and discuss the Daliang matter. The relationship was too complicated. Even if she explained it, Xie Jingxing wouldn't understand. He might even think she was talking nonsense. She needed to think it over carefully.
She followed Xie Jingxing to Qianjin Tower. Xie Jingxing was drinking with several noble children from Dingjing, but she saw Qin Qing.
Qin Qing, the daughter of the Left Capital Censor, had once painted with Shen Miao during a review. Qin Qing was naturally beautiful, wearing a blue, wide-sleeved, embroidered cotton gown with a goose-yellow belt around her waist, which only made her waist appear smaller than a hand could hold. With her flowing sleeves, she looked like a fairy.
Qin Qing had always been proud because of her beauty, and looked down upon ordinary people. But at this moment, she was sitting with her eldest brother, and her eyes unconsciously glanced at Xie Jingxing. There was no trace of her usual arrogance, only tenderness and affection.
Only a fool could not see that Qin Qing was interested in Xie Jingxing. Brother Qin also wanted to match them up, so he deliberately made way for Qin Qing and Xie Jingxing to sit together.
Shen Miao watched from the other side, Qin Qing and Xie Jingxing were talking about something, Xie Jingxing was smiling charmingly, Qin Qing nodded shyly, from a distance, they were truly a perfect match.
Shen Miao’s eyes felt a little sore.
She knew it was a dream, and she also knew that Xie Jingxing didn't recognize her or like her now, so it was none of her business whether he flirted with other people or not. But she was still sad, thinking about the real world in Daliang. Would Xie Jingxing have a beautiful woman by his side in the future, with elegant clothes and beautiful hair, and respect for her husband?
Among the myriad possibilities in the world, it is impossible for him to choose himself every time.
She closed her eyes, feeling that the scene of clinking glasses was too jarring to bear, and she stood up and left.
After walking for a while, we finally arrived at the Misty Rain Pavilion.
The banquet arranged by Yanyu Pavilion is the best one, and the location is also good, which happens to be on the top floor. Looking out the window, you can see the fireworks and the moon.
Shen Miao walked in alone. She was the only one sitting alone in the huge banquet. The table was filled with exquisite dishes, which looked very gorgeous, but they could not hide her loneliness.
She poured herself a glass of wine.
The wine is good, a strong osmanthus brew, sweet and with a long aftertaste.
She drank slowly, looking at the moon with each drink.
The moon in the dream is so beautiful. In the real world, who is Xie Jingxing looking at the moon with?
