Chapter 369: Seeing My Sweetheart Again
The young master of Marquis Anyuan's Mansion was shocked and horrified to see that Huai'er was so unruly and not afraid of their Marquis Anyuan's Mansion at all!
He was really afraid that this reckless man would search him without caring about anything in front of so many lowly people!
The young master of the Marquis Anyuan's mansion resisted the urge to curse, took out a silver ingot from his pocket, threw it on the ground, and hurriedly led his horse away.
Xingxing even wanted to applaud her big brother!
The people around them applauded excitedly!
Huai'er bent down and picked up the silver ingot from the ground. He then found the manager of the neighborhood and asked him to use the silver ingot to distribute some of it to the vendors who had suffered losses.
"Sir, we meet again."
A gentle and smiling female voice came from behind Huai Ge'er and the others. Huai Ge'er turned around subconsciously and saw a girl who was simply dressed and looked very gentle and generous walking out of the teahouse behind him.
When Xingxing was still wondering who this sister was, she saw Huai Ge'er standing there in a daze, his mind full of what Xingxing had said to him before - you two are destined to meet again!
Huai'er, who had just been talking to the playboy in Marquis Anyuan's mansion, now blushed and was speechless.
Xingxing exclaimed when she saw her older brother looking extremely embarrassed.
I see. This is the girl his elder brother mentioned before and has always been thinking about, right?
The gentle and generous girl knelt slightly in front of Huai Ge'er and said, "Last time, my maid was injured. I was in a hurry and didn't have time to thank you sincerely. This time, I happened to see you speaking up for the street vendors. You are really a good man."
Huai Ge'er was speechless.
Xing Xing took a look and realized that her older brother's head was almost red as smoke. Instead of expecting him to say anything, she might as well do it herself!
Xingxing stepped forward enthusiastically: "Hello, sister. My name is Xingxing. This is my older brother. He is a little nervous, don't mind him."
The gentle and generous girl was wondering why the young man opposite her had not responded to her. After listening to Xingxing's explanation, she subconsciously raised her head and met Huai'er's face, which was red as smoke. She seemed to understand something, and her fair little face slowly turned red.
She suppressed her shyness and whispered to the little girl opposite her: "My name is Cen Yueyi. Little sister, your big brother saved me before. I wonder if I can have the honor to treat you to a cup of tea?"
Xing Xing quickly responded on behalf of Huai Ge'er: "Of course, of course, of course."
Cen Yueyi pursed her lips and smiled, then turned around and walked into the teahouse.
Huai was still in a daze. Xingxing quickly nudged her elder brother with her elbow and lowered her voice: "...Brother, don't just stand there! Sister Cen wants to treat us to tea!"
Huai Ge'er seemed to have just woken up from a dream, and stammered, "Ah? Ah! OK, OK!"
The young general who was so mighty on the battlefield was now a little at a loss.
Xingxing smiled secretly and shook her head, then took her older brother's hand and went into the teahouse.
They sat in an elegant room. Although Huai Ge'er still seemed to be in a dream state, he was now able to talk normally, though his words were still a little halting.
"Miss, you are too polite."
Xing Xing was anxious after hearing this and quickly explained to Miss Cen: "My elder brother is not a stutterer, he is just too nervous."
Cen Yueyi's fair neck was stained with red. She nodded gently: "Just now I was on the second floor and heard how the young master questioned that playboy. I know that the young master is not a stutterer."
Huai Ge'er felt as if he was in the clouds, nodding foolishly following Cen Yueyi's words.
Cen Yueyi's face turned even redder and she lowered her head, not knowing what to say.
Xingxing couldn't help but smile secretly again.
The elder brother blushed, and Sister Cen’s face also blushed. Both of their faces were very red. You have to look at her at the critical moment!
This family can't do without her!
Xing Xing blinked and said, "Sister Cen, are you from Beijing? The tone of your voice seems to be different from that of people in Beijing."
Cen Yueyi tried to let the heat from her cheeks dissipate faster, and was very grateful to Xingxing for asking her these questions to divert her attention. She pursed her lips and smiled, and said seriously: "I used to live in Suyang, with my grandmother. I have just arrived in Beijing, so my Mandarin is not very standard. I am sorry to embarrass you."
Xing Xing shook her head and said, "Sister Cen's words are very nice, I like it very much!"
Cen Yueyi was startled. Her sister, who had been in Beijing, had said with disdain that she spoke with a country accent. Although she would not belittle herself for this, she felt relieved when she suddenly heard a girl who was only ten years old praising her so sincerely.
"Yeah." Cen Yueyi gave a faint smile.
With Xingxing around, Cen Yueyi and Huai Ge'er finally relaxed and chatted for a few minutes with blushing faces.
When Cen Yueyi found out that Huai Ge'er was actually Yu Yonghuai, the most powerful general in the capital, a look of shock appeared on her usually dignified and decent face.
"It turns out that the young master is the famous General Yu..." Cen Yueyi's expression was a little complicated.
Could it be less complicated?
Two days ago, she heard her stepmother discussing with her father about marrying her sister to the young general.
She turned the corner behind the corridor and heard her father hesitate: "...Yueyi hasn't been engaged yet, but you're getting your sister engaged first. Isn't that a bad idea?"
Then, the stepmother smiled angrily: "Then hurry up and settle Yueyi's matter. I'll take Yueyi out for a walk more often these days... I'm not saying that Yueyi's personality is too rigid, not as lively as our Yuehua. I see that she is not very close to you, her father..."
Her father sighed.
Cen Yueyi didn't listen to the next words.
But she had never imagined that in just a few days, the young general who had a promising future as described by her stepmother and father and who would surely be appointed a noble and a prime minister in the future, turned out to be the man who saved her in the mountains!
Cen Yueyi couldn't help but feel a little complicated.
Huai Ge'er said hurriedly: "Although I am a military commander, I am not fierce at all..."
Xing Xing covered her little face and shook her shoulders to prevent herself from laughing out loud.
Cen Yueyi was stunned and couldn't help but smile.
Just when the atmosphere in the elegant room was just right, a shouting sounded outside the window: "Where is that guy just now! He ran away after provoking the young master!?"
Huai'er frowned slightly, stood up and walked to the window, stretched out his hand to open the window. He was very careful, fearing that if the window was opened too wide, cold wind would rush in and blow on Xingxing and Miss Cen, whom he had been thinking about all the time, so he only opened a small gap - which was enough for him to see clearly what was happening downstairs outside.
The dandy from Marquis Anyuan's mansion must have gone back to show off, as he brought seven or eight guards with him, and his attitude was even more arrogant than before!
Huai'er's face turned cold. Seeing that the young master from Anyuan Marquis's mansion was cursing more and more harshly, he turned around and told Xingxing and Miss Cen: "You just wait here for me. I'll go and take care of it."
