Chapter 720 Wait, So What
Seeing Xu Xi just smiling and remaining silent, Lu Yun was also happy to see him like this. He immediately smiled, knowing that this meant he agreed to his request, so he naturally felt happy as well.
Xu Xi was so happy that he said, "Don't be too happy too soon. I haven't promised to wait for you yet. If you can't pass the exam this time, I will marry someone else."
When Lu Yun heard this, he felt a little disappointed, but he quickly recovered, bowed to Xu Xi, and said solemnly: "Lu, I will naturally do my best to marry my wife home as soon as possible."
Hearing him call him that, Xu Xi blushed a little. After Xu Miaomiao finished her meal, she looked up and saw Xu Xi and Lu Yun walking out together with a shy expression on their faces. Xu Miaomiao knew that they had reconciled. Seeing this, he was also happy in his heart and nodded to the two of them, but still looked at Lu Yun and said solemnly: "I will hand my sister over to you. If you are still like before in Nanxiang, I will naturally not let you off easily."
When Lu Yun heard what Xu Miaomiao said, he also said solemnly: "Madam Xu, don't worry, I will never let him down in my life."
Hearing this, Xu Xi exchanged glances with the passerby next to him, and then did not continue to speak. When it was late at night, Xu Xi still could not sleep, and was stroking his pipa at the head of the bed in a daze. Xu Miaomiao and Gu Yuanniang sat on the bed together, looking at him like this, and waved: "Xiao Xi, come here."
Xu Xi then put down the pipa and immediately walked towards Xu Miaomiao and the other two. This was the first time that the three of them had chatted together. The three of them sat together, like sisters, talking about something in the middle of the night.
Gu Yuanniang looked at him and said solemnly: "Although Mr. Lu is really good to you, don't forget that he has disappointed you before. He also chose his family over you. I hope you will always remember Weiwei's example and never let yourself get hurt again."
Although what Gu Yuanniang said was unpleasant, every word was true. Xu Xi knew it in her heart. After hearing what Gu Yuanniang said, she thanked him a lot and said solemnly, "Now I finally understand Song Weiwei's thoughts. I always laughed at him before, but when this happened to me, I was really flattered. Since he is willing to make such a promise to me, why not wait for him for three months? If it's less than three months, then sister, you can choose someone else for me."
Xu Xi looked up at Xu Miaomiao and spoke. Xu Miaomiao nodded solemnly. Although the Song family was not very rich, they were also very wealthy in Bai County. Finding a family with a clean family background and willing to marry into Xu Xi's family could also protect him for the rest of his life. As long as Xu Miaomiao and Gu Yuan's mother were there, they would never let her be bullied again. This was the first sister he had recognized, and Xu Miaomiao would certainly protect her well.
"Today, I am happy to see you and Mr. Lu reconcile. Mr. Lu is devoted to you and is willing to make such a promise to you. However, I am still worried about what happened between Liu Niang and Wei Wei. But then I thought about it carefully. This is a decision between you two. I just want to support you. No matter what the result is, the Song Mansion will always be your home. At worst, we can just go home."
Listening to Xu Miaomiao's words, Xu Xi's eyes were filled with tears. He was about to cry out but immediately swallowed them back. He nodded at Xu Miaomiao and didn't say anything else.
The night passed quickly, but Xu Xi was still unable to sleep while lying on the bed. Gu Yuanniang and Xu Miaomiao beside him had already fallen asleep while talking. After reconciling with Lu Yun tonight, Xu Miaomiao and Gu Yuanniang reminded him of many things. They were already exhausted, but he was still so happy that he couldn't fall asleep. He just wanted to see Lu Yun more often.
It's a pity that after arriving in the capital, it might be difficult for them to see each other again. Just like that, Xu Xi fell into a drowsy sleep in the second half of the night. When he woke up today, Lu Yun had already been waiting downstairs. He was different from Xu Xi. He was too happy about what happened last night and he couldn't sleep all night. It was only later that he read a book for a while and calmed his mind. Then he perked up a little and came downstairs early to wait for Xu Xi.
Seeing the three of them coming down together, Lu Yun first bowed to them, and then politely said: "Thank you three ladies for your rescue. I wonder if I can have dinner with you three ladies this morning."
Lu Yun was embarrassed to ask Xu Xi to be alone, fearing that such words would tarnish his reputation, so he could only ask Gu Yuanniang and Xu Miaomiao to come together. Knowing what Lu Yun meant, Xu Miaomiao and Gu Yuanniang looked at each other and nodded: "Mr. Lu, you don't have to be polite, we can have dinner together."
The breakfast at this restaurant is relatively simple, but the taste is still good. When Xu Miaomiao came last time, she loved their steamed dumplings very much, and immediately picked one for Xu Xi. Lu Yun also wanted to pick up some food for Xu Xi, but because of the issue of gender, he had to pick one for Xu Miaomiao and Gu Yuanniang, and then put the things he wanted to add in Xu Xi's bowl. Knowing his little thoughts, Xu Xi was also shy. Lu Yun looked at each other and blushed a little. According to Xu Miaomiao's words, the two of them are now in an ambiguous period, so they are naturally concerned about each other at this time. Xu Miaomiao just smiled and didn't say anything. Seeing that the two of them were so sticky, she couldn't help but want to give them a chance. She looked at them and said, "Let's go into the city together. We are also going to the capital. It's good to go together so that we can take care of each other."
Hearing what Xu Miaomiao said, Lu Yun's eyes flashed with surprise and joy, and he immediately wanted to nod to Xu Miaomiao, but Wan Xianggong next to him looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "No need, Madam Xu, there are only women in your carriage, and it's not good for us to be with you. No one saw us in the mountains before, and we were really in a hurry, so we offended the ladies. But now we are sitting by the carriage today, so don't bother Madam Xu. Thank you for your kindness."
Listening to what Mr. Wan said, Lu Yun couldn't help but want to scold him in his heart, but what he said was indeed right. If others saw him getting off the carriage with them, they might gossip about him. It would be bad if it tarnished Xu Xi's reputation. For Xu Xi's sake, he should just separate and leave with them.
Xu Miaomiao expected they would say this, so she pretended to take a step back and spoke.
