Chapter 121 Yaochi Past
"hehe……"
Xiao Ze chuckled, he stretched out his slender fingers and gently stroked An Ran's smooth hair, and said softly: "Let's go too!"
"Yeah." An Ran nodded obediently, and walked slowly towards Yao Chi City side by side with Xiao Ze.
They didn't notice that Yun Piaomiao quietly walked out from a street corner, staring at the two people's backs as they left, with a strange and meaningful look on his face.
An Ran and Xiao Ze walked out of the city gate, then rode their flying swords and flew towards Yunling.
In the past few days, they have been traveling non-stop without stopping for a moment, but the two of them did not feel tired at all. The sweetness that permeates deep in their hearts makes them forget all their worries.
"Brother Xiao, you haven't told me what's going on between Patriarch Yun and Madam Yun!"
Since An Ran accepted Xiao Ze's confession, she gradually lost her former toughness in front of Xiao Ze and became more and more dependent.
"hehe……"
Xiao Ze stood quietly behind An Ran, and that cold voice as clear as broken jade rang out again. The warm breath blew gently on Anran's head, as if a warm current penetrated her body.
"When did you become so gossipy!"
He couldn't help but tease her, with a hint of teasing in his tone.
An Ran couldn't help but blush. She always relied on Xiao Ze involuntarily. Seeing Xiao Ze teasing her like this, she couldn't help but stamp her feet lightly and said coquettishly.
"Okay, you actually made fun of me! I'm angry and I won't pay any attention to you!"
Xiao Ze had never seen such a cute little woman like An Ran. She was usually so strong and independent, but at this moment she was acting like a child and acting coquettishly to him, which made his heart become extremely soft. He quickly grabbed An Ran's hand and coaxed her softly.
"Alright, alright, don't be angry! I'll just tell you!"
Then Xiao Ze told everything he knew.
It turned out that Shui Furong had a crush on Yun Reyue when she was young, but Yun Reyue had no interest in women of her type. But Shui Furong is stubborn and she must get what she likes.
One of them was chasing while the other was hiding. Yun Reyue was young and energetic, and he declared that he would never have anything to do with Shui Furong. Shui Furong felt deeply humiliated and became even more aggressive in her pestering of him.
Later, Yun Reyue went out alone to gain experience. Unexpectedly, Shui Furong got the news from somewhere and followed him secretly. Yun Reyue was already extremely annoyed with Shui Furong's pestering, and now that he discovered that she was following him secretly, he began to speak without thinking!
Seeing that Yun Reyue refused to accept her, Shui Furong drugged him when Yun Reyue was not paying attention, which led to the birth of Yun Piaomiao!
Now that the matter has been settled, no matter how reluctant Yun Reyue is, he has to take Penglai seriously.
Yun Reyue had no choice but to swallow his anger and marry Shui Furong. The old patriarch and the old lady of the Yun family also disliked Shui Furong. They thought that she acted in a dissolute manner and lacked the reserve and grace of a lady from a noble family.
After the two got married, the old head of the Yun family passed the position of head of the family to Yun Reyue and traveled around the world with his wife.
After Yun Reyue and Shui Furong got married, they announced that they would go into seclusion to practice and have not come out for twenty years.
Shui Furong planned everything, but in the end she ended up alone in an empty house. She stayed in the Yun family with Yun Piaomiao for more than 20 years!
After hearing this, An Ran couldn't help but sigh and lamented.
"Alas, there is a saying that there must be something hateful about a pitiful person! Matters of love require mutual affection, as the saying goes, a forced melon is not sweet!"
"Exactly!"
Xiao Ze nodded in agreement.
"Aunt Shui has become more and more paranoid now. Everyone avoids her like the plague."
Xiao Ze secretly rejoiced in his heart that he and An Ran were in tune with each other and had a mutual understanding. He simply couldn't imagine what kind of situation he would be in if An Ran had no feelings for him at all?
An Ran remained silent, but suddenly a strange feeling flashed through her mind, but when she tried to capture it, she couldn't remember it at all!
She looked down at the scenery below, her eyes suddenly attracted by a small market below, and she couldn't help but ask.
"Brother Xiao, where is this place?"
Xiao Ze looked down along the direction her gaze was pointing and replied with a smile.
"This is a wild market, where people from various families gather spontaneously to trade with each other. There is no one to supervise here, so it is relatively chaotic. However, sometimes some good treasures appear. Are you interested in going for a look?"
After listening to Xiao Ze's introduction, An Ran couldn't help but feel curious and interested. After all, they had been rushing on their journey these days and had not had time to leisurely explore the area. Since there was no need to rush to the An family at the moment, Anran happily decided to go with them to find out what was going on.
"Okay, let's go! And find a comfortable place to rest for a while!"
When Xiao Ze heard what An Ran said, he immediately led her to the market as fast as a gust of wind. Anran looked around with great interest and saw that this was a narrow and short street, and she could see the end of the street from the beginning.
There are a handful of teahouses and restaurants scattered on both sides of the street, and most people just spread a piece of cloth on the ground and then put the items for sale.
An Ran took a few casual glances and then felt bored, so she turned to Xiao Ze and made a suggestion.
"Brother Xiao, let's go find a restaurant and have a meal! We haven't had a good meal in these days."
"good!"
Xiao Ze responded casually, and the two of them walked towards the only restaurant in the market that looked decent. As soon as they stepped through the door, they saw Shui Linglong and a young man sitting in the store.
"Welcome, please come in! How many guests are there?"
When the hotel waiter saw the two people come in, he hurried forward to greet them.
An Ran and Xiao Ze followed the waiter into the restaurant and found a table to sit down. Xiao Ze picked up the menu and handed it to An Ran, smiling and asking, "Come on, let's see if there's anything you want to eat?"
"Well, okay!" An Ran was not at all restrained. She took the menu and started to read it carefully.
"Brother Xiao..."
Shui Linglong raised her head and looked around out of boredom. She immediately saw Xiao Ze sitting by the window, and she couldn't help feeling happy.
She stood up and walked towards Xiao Ze with brisk steps, a bright smile on her face. Her big, bright eyes sparkled as she stared at Xiao Ze closely, saying in a tender voice:
"Brother Xiao, you actually came to this restaurant to eat too! What a coincidence! Why don't we share a table together?"
Xiao Ze looked up at her and responded politely but distantly.
"Thank you Miss Shui for your kindness. We are just going to have a quick bite to eat and we will continue our journey later."
He thought to himself that he had been unhappy because of her last time, and he really didn't want to make Ran'er unhappy again.
At this moment, the young man who was sitting side by side with Shui Linglong also stood up and walked over. His gaze was aggressive, falling directly on An Ran's beautiful face, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He just smiled heartily and said:
"Master Xiao, as the saying goes, meeting is fate! How about having a few drinks together?"
