Chapter 558: Jealousy, coming to find my sister...

After the collision, Xuetuan's head was full of stars and it took him a long time to react. He raised his head to look at the huge monster in front of him, but he could only see gray hair and could not even see the monster's face.

Xuetuan turned around and ran to Shen Chuwei's feet, then raised his head again to look at the huge creature in front of him. When he saw the face, he found it was a familiar face. He hadn't seen it for so many years. It seemed that he had grown so big by eating feed~

The tiger lion also looked down and saw the snow-white ball. It recognized it as a snowball at a glance. However, it was so small in front of it n years ago, and it is still so small now.

It stretched out its paw and pushed the snowball, as if to say hello.

But in Shen Chuwei's eyes, the scene looked a bit like a cat teasing a mouse.

Xuetuan snorted, turned around and hugged Shen Chuwei's thighs, one to seek comfort, and the other to get a hug.

Shen Chuwei couldn't help laughing when she saw Xuetuan hugging her thighs in grievance.

But he still bent down and picked up the snowball.

Xuetuan raised his chin and looked at the tiger-lion beast, obviously showing off. His eyes seemed to be saying, Xiaojiu, hug me, not you, hehe!

The tiger-lion beast saw it, snorted, took a step forward and leaned towards Shen Chuwei.

Shen Chuwei looked at the tiger lion beast's actions with a confused look on her face. What was it trying to do by approaching me with such a big body? Was it trying to crush me into a meat pie?

The tiger-lion beast wanted Shen Chuwei to hold it, but it also realized that it was too big for her to hold it, and it felt a little distressed.

Xuetuan called out proudly, "Meow". You will never enjoy such treatment.

The tiger lion bared its teeth at the snowball, raised its claws and began to pull at her arms, trying to get the snowball off.

No matter how strong Shen Chuwei was, he was no match for the tiger lion beast, and he took the snowball out of his arms in just a few moves.

Xuetuan was angry and wanted to chase the tiger-lion beast, but was easily pushed away by the tiger-lion beast. Xuetuan's round body rolled on the ground for several circles before stopping.

Xuetuan glared at the tiger-lion beast angrily.

Shen Chuwei looked at the two of them, one big and one small, with a confused look on her face.

At this time, the palace maid came over with the fish. When she saw the tiger lion beast, she was also shocked. She said tremblingly, "Princess, the fish is steamed."

Shen Chuwei saw the fish and finally had something to separate them.

"Xuetuan, go eat some fish."

Xuetuan was already hungry, and he became even hungrier when he smelled the fish. He ignored the Tigrex, turned his head and pointed his butt towards the Tigrex, then walked gracefully to eat the fish.

The tiger lion was already full and didn't care about the little bit of fish. It was not enough to fill its teeth.

Shen Chuwei looked at the tiger lion and decided to shave it. No, she trimmed its hair.

The Worry-Free Palace was very big, so she found a large open space and prepared her scissors.

The tiger lion beast followed her all the time and did not need her command.

When Shen Chuwei looked at the tiger lion beast, she thought of Dabai at home. Susu called Dabai Huhu, and she also called out, "Huhu, come here, lie on the ground."

The tiger-lion beast didn't know what Shen Chuwei was going to do, so he just lay on the ground obediently, looking at her with his eyes wide open.

"Good boy, don't move." Shen Chu praised slightly, picked up the scissors, looked at the tiger lion's hair, and then started trimming from the back~

The tiger-lion beast didn't dare to move, but just rolled its eyes and looked at Shen Chuwei, with curiosity in its eyes.

*

Xiao Jinyan did not sleep well last night. He was always worried that something might happen to Shen Chuwei in the palace and he was not by her side.

He came out of the guest room with dark circles under his eyes, and saw Wu Tan coming up from downstairs. He saw that Wu Tan also had dark circles under his eyes.

When the two met, they saw each other's dark circles under their eyes, and they both understood what was going on.

When Xiao Jinyan came back last night, he asked Qin Xiao to find Wu Tan and tell him that Shen Chuwei had been found, but he was not in the guest room no matter how many times Qin Xiao went there.

He thought of telling him because Wu Tan was looking for Shen Chuwei with him.

"You just got back?"

Wu Tan nodded, "Yes."

Xiao Jinyan said: "She has found it."

Wu Tan's cold eyes suddenly became tense, "Where is she?"

Xiao Jinyan chuckled: "You are a monk, don't you think that the four elements are empty? Why are you so nervous about her?"

Wu Tan said calmly: "Master Xiao, just because a monk is free from all the four elements doesn't mean he has no friendship. What's wrong with a poor monk worrying about his friends?"

Xiao Jinyan smiled faintly, his voice turned cold, "It's better this way."

Xiao Jinyan went downstairs after he finished speaking.

Wu Tan watched Xiao Jinyan go downstairs without telling him where Shen Chuwei was. He withdrew his gaze and returned to his guest room.

Capital

Jun Wuxian had been preparing for the marriage proposal for quite some time, mainly because he didn't quite understand the local customs.

Today was an important day for proposals. The general's mansion was decorated with lights and red lanterns, and a group of people gathered at the door to watch the fun.

There was also a group of children playing and laughing, clamoring for wedding candy.

The news that General Xu's daughter got engaged today had already spread throughout the capital yesterday.

During these days, the news of Xu Qingqing's disfigurement had spread throughout the streets and alleys, and everyone knew about it.

The people watching the excitement at the door had all rushed over after hearing the news, curious about which young master had taken a fancy to the disfigured Miss Xu.

"Why haven't I heard of any young man coming to propose marriage? Why is it that suddenly an engagement is being made?"

"I haven't heard of it either. Before Xu Qingqing's face was disfigured, she was very picky when she went on blind dates. After her face was disfigured, others looked down on her. The rich and powerful families definitely looked down on her."

"I guess she married him because she was attracted by General Xu's power and wanted to rise to a higher position."

"I think so too. We'll know the other party's family background by looking at the betrothal gift later."

"Look, people are coming." Someone in the crowd shouted.

The crowd of onlookers all looked over there and saw a large group of people walking over with betrothal gifts in their arms.

As they got closer, everyone's attention was attracted by the man in the lead.

The leading man was wearing a dark purple robe with gold brocade, his hair tied up with a jade crown, and he had a slender figure and handsome features that attracted everyone's attention.

"Could the person walking in front be General Xu's future son-in-law?"

"This man has a noble temperament and doesn't look like a young master from an ordinary family. He looks so outstanding, how could he fall in love with the disfigured Miss Xu?"

"That's right, this young master is either rich or noble, he would not fall in love with the disfigured Miss Xu."

Today is the young lady's engagement day. Caixia happily came out with wedding candies and distributed them to the children and onlookers. As a result, she heard people in the crowd talking about her own young lady.

As a personal maid, she saw everything Xu Qingqing went through from the moment she left the palace to her disfigurement.

Today is a happy day, but people are still talking at the door. Caixia can't help but feel relieved.

She walked over to the crowd of people who were still discussing the wedding candy with a smile on her face, "Would you like some wedding candy?"

The crowd of onlookers were in high spirits, and when they saw Caixia offering wedding candies, they naturally wanted to eat some and share in the joy.

Just as their hands were reaching into the plate, Caixia smiled and moved the plate away, leaving several hands empty-handed.

Just as they were wondering, Caixia continued with a smile, "You guys are so busy chatting, I guess you don't have the time to eat wedding candy."

The crowd of onlookers looked at each other in bewilderment.

One of the onlookers couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean?"

Caixia snorted coldly: "You talk about my young lady behind her back, and you still want to eat wedding candy? Can wedding candy shut up your mouth?"

Those who were discussing enthusiastically just now were rebuked by Caixia and were all very embarrassed.

Caixia pointed at the aunt-in-law and said, "Did you see that handsome and elegant young man? He is the aunt-in-law who is going to propose to my young lady today."

The crowd of onlookers dropped their jaws when they heard this.

Caixia pointed at the betrothal gifts and said, "Did you see those big and small boxes of betrothal gifts? They were all prepared by the future aunt herself."

The eyes of the onlookers involuntarily turned to the betrothal gifts. As onlookers, they had naturally seen many scenes of famous families offering betrothal gifts, and those betrothal gifts were something that ordinary people like them could not even imagine.

The betrothal gift in front of him was more than anything he had ever seen before, and one could tell at a glance that it would cost a lot of money.

Caixia looked at them with surprise, then she withdrew her gaze with satisfaction and continued to hand out wedding candies.

Xu Qingqing was sitting in the guest room at this time. Today was a happy day, and she was dressed particularly gently and elegantly, with a plain veil on her cheeks, revealing only a pair of watery almond eyes.

A few days ago, Xu Qingqing was a little depressed, and had a look of disgust and frustration on her face all day long.

It is said that people feel refreshed when they are happy. Xu Qingqing is more beautiful than ever. Not to mention she is more energetic, with a faint smile in her eyes.

After distributing the wedding candies, Caixia returned to the inner courtyard.

"Miss, Miss, Young Master Jun is here." Caixia's voice was heard before he even showed up.

Xu Qingqing raised her head and looked towards the door, and saw a green figure running in with a smile on his chubby face.

In fact, Jun Wuxian has been living in the general's mansion, so it would not be so troublesome to propose marriage. However, Jun Wuxian insisted on doing so. He said that only in this way would everyone in the capital know that Miss Xu from the general's mansion was engaged to him.

"Miss, it's so lively today. Many people come here to watch the fun." Caixia smiled and began to check Xu Qingqing's makeup.

Even though Xu Qingqing hadn't gone out, she could have guessed that as a disfigured rich girl, there would be a lot of people watching the excitement.

"Is someone saying something about me behind my back, how could anyone like me when I'm so ugly?"

Caixia paused what she was doing. She originally didn’t want to say these things so as not to spoil the young lady’s fun, but she didn’t expect that the young lady knew about it.

She comforted her, "Miss, don't worry about what others say. Today is a happy day, you should be happy."

Xu Qingqing said indifferently: "Why should I care about what they do? What I care about is that the person who wants to marry me is Jun Wuxian. Just based on this, I can be happy for a long, long time."

Caixia asked with a smile: "Why didn't I realize before that Miss likes Master Jun so much? I don't even know how Miss knows Master Jun."

Xu Qingqing recalled that she was held hostage when she first met Jun Wuxian. She was scared to death at that time. Moreover, Jun Wuxian was wearing a nightgown, which made him like an assassin in her eyes.

But after spending some time with him, you'll find that he's actually a pretty nice person.

"Jun Wuxian and I have known each other for several years, but he always comes at night, so you haven't seen him."

The young lady knew Master Jun when she was still in the palace a few years ago, but the key point is that she, a personal maid, didn't even know about it?

And it happened at night...isn't that a secret meeting?

However, although the young lady used to be coquettish, she was not a reckless person, otherwise she would not have been out of the palace for so long before she confirmed her feelings with Master Jun.

The betrothal and marriage had been settled during this period of time, and for this purpose, General Xu rushed back from another place.

Today we are just going through the formalities to let everyone know that Miss Xu is engaged.

As for the wedding date, it has been agreed upon and is scheduled for the end of the year.

Xu Qingqing couldn't sit still in the room, so she stood up and walked out, holding up her skirt.

Caixia followed behind him, covering her mouth and laughing: "Miss, what are you in such a hurry for?"

Xu Qingqing naturally knew that Caixia was asking knowingly, so she said coquettishly, "I'm not in a hurry. It's too stuffy in the room. I'm going out to get some fresh air."

Caixia didn't point it out, and came out with the washed fruit, "Miss, have some fruit."

Seeing that Jun Wuxian had not arrived yet, Xu Qingqing retracted her gaze to the fruits on the plate, picked up a grape and put it into her mouth to eat.

She was bored and the veil was in the way, so she tore it off.

Caixia saw Jun Wuxian coming from a distance and reminded her with a smile, "Miss, the future aunt is here."

Xu Qingqing had just stuffed a grape into her mouth. When she raised her head after hearing the words, she saw Jun Wuxian walking towards her. She hurriedly swallowed the grape in her mouth, then took out a handkerchief to wipe her mouth.

In just a short while, Jun Wuxian had already approached.

Xu Qingqing looked up at the handsome man in front of her. They had been together for so long that they were familiar with each other. However, when she thought about the engagement today and the relationship between them as engaged couple, she couldn't help feeling shy.

Jun Wuyou put away his folding fan and looked Xu Qingqing up and down. She was dressed particularly gently today, which was very different from usual.

Xu Qingqing noticed that Jun Wuxian had been looking at her. She lowered her head to take a look at her clothes and asked him in confusion, "Why are you staring at me?"

Jun Wuxian laughed softly, "You are too gentle and dignified today. It's a bit unlike you."

While Caixia was doing her makeup, Xu Qingqing kept looking at her own appearance. She thought it looked pretty good, but a little restrained.

But during this period of time, her mother nagged her every day, asking her to learn how to take good care of her husband and children, be gentle and generous... and so on. Her ears were almost covered with knots.

"Is this not good for me?"

Jun Wuxian said: "Just be yourself."

Xu Qingqing was somewhat happy in her heart, "Then I'll listen to you."

Caixia put down the plate and stepped back subconsciously.

Jun Wuxian sat down on the chair, picked up the grapes and threw them into his mouth accurately, but his eyes were looking at Xu Qingqing, "We will set out to find Shen Chuwei tomorrow."

Xu Qingqing looked at Jun Wuxian's actions. No matter his appearance or behavior, he didn't look like a thirty-year-old uncle at all.

It's not that he's immature and not serious, but he's really young and energetic, unlike the older brother who has a sullen face and pretends to be serious.

"Okay, I can't wait to meet her."

Jun Wuxian stared at Xu Qingqing for a long time, then reached out and held her hand, and with a little force, she moved into his arms.

Xu Qingqing was startled by the sudden action. She put her hands on Jun Wuxian's chest. When she raised her head to meet those bright eyes, her heart was pounding and a blush appeared on her cheeks.

Jun Wu enviously looked at her blushing cheeks, and pinched them with his slender fingers, with a faint smile on his lips: "I haven't done anything yet, why is your face red?"

It would have been fine if she hadn't said it. As soon as she said it, Xu Qingqing's face turned even redder. "You hugged me, isn't that enough?"
