Huo Shuwen's elders replied to him.
The letter essentially told him to cherish this relationship, as first love is the most unforgettable experience.
However, the difference in your social status is too great, so you must not do anything outrageous.
In short, the letter told him to treat He Yi well, and if the opportunity arose, to marry this young woman and spend his life with her.
oh.
The eagle nodded after reading the letter.
So this is what it means to like someone: I like her.
I miss her when I can't see her, I feel shy when I see her, I feel unhappy when I see her unhappy, and I feel happy when I see her smiling.
Huo Shuwen omitted the middle sentence about the huge difference in their social status.
He went to see He Yi again.
The Qixi Festival is just around the corner, a perfect time to go out and have fun.
"Second Miss." Huo Shuwen called out to He Yi, who was weeding in the courtyard.
"What's wrong, Guard Huo?"
"Are you going out to play for the Qixi Festival in a few days?"
The girl's eyes widened. He was inviting her out for a trip, and it was to celebrate the Qixi Festival.
Looks like I don't need to lie to him anymore.
He Yi lowered her head, looking somewhat shy, and replied:
My family won't let me go out.
"Do you want to go out?"
The eagle countered with a question.
"Yes." The girl nodded.
"Then let's go out, I'll make the arrangements."
It's always the same; they say one thing and then leave.
He Yi stomped her foot, feeling that this damned man was completely oblivious to romance.
On the day of the Qixi Festival, Huo Shuwen somehow managed to drug all the maids left in He Yi's courtyard.
After Mr. and Mrs. He finished their meal, He Qing naturally went out with her girlfriends.
The only person left in this mansion is Concubine Suifang.
He Yi was escorted openly to the carriage at the back door. The eagle gestured to her, indicating that she should get in the carriage.
"Get in the car, I'll take you to the market."
The girl was so happy, it made Huo Shuwen so happy he was almost flustered. How could she be so beautiful!
This was He Yi's first time visiting a market. It was lively and bustling, and she ate many things she had never tried before.
The eagle behind her rushed to pay the bill.
The girl wanted to return the money to him.
But Huo Shuwen didn't want it.
Isn't it only natural to spend money on the woman you like?
As dusk fell, lanterns twinkled all over the streets. At a roadside stall, Huo Shuwen spotted a hairpin. The moment he saw it, he wanted to put it in He Yi's hair.
So I bought it.
He Yi strolled along happily in front, while he followed behind dutifully.
Suddenly, the girl felt something on her head. She turned around and saw Huo Shuwen putting a hairpin on her head.
What is that?
"hairpin."
"A gift for me?"
"It looks good and suits you very well."
He Yi blushed slightly, took the hairpin off her head, and prepared to fix her hair before putting it back on.
When she saw what the hairpin looked like, the girl almost cursed in the street.
What is this?
Red branches paired with green flowers.
It's a good piece of stuff; it's probably red agate with some jade scraps mixed in.
It's made of jade, and this kind of hairpin isn't cheap.
but……
Is it pretty?
Does this look good?
"What's wrong? It's not expensive, it doesn't cost much. You can wear it without worry, it's a good fit for you."
The eagle stood to the side, and He Yi, fearing it, was reluctant to wear it.
He had secretly checked the steward's account before and found that He Yi only received a few taels of silver a month, less than him.
The girl forced a smile, stiffly fastened the hairpin, then nodded to Huo Shuwen and said:
"It looks good, and I think it suits me well too."
It's okay, it's nothing.
I'm good-looking, so I can't wear anything that doesn't look good.
Waaaaah, but I still don't have the courage to wear this thing on the street.
Huo Shuwen was happy, feeling that he had bought something his sweetheart liked, and that he would buy the same thing again next time.
Time flies.
He Yi sat in the carriage on her way home, the two separated only by a curtain.
She removed the hairpin from her head and let her hair fall down slightly.
Today, Eagle was wearing a suit with shoulder armor, giving him the air of a江湖人 (jianghu person, someone from the martial arts world). Many young girls were captivated by his outfit.
I changed several sets of clothes before finally getting this one.
The girl got off the car at the back gate of the He residence, and Huo Shuwen raised his arm for her to support.
He Yi lost her footing and stumbled, accidentally falling onto his arm.
"careful."
She frowned slightly and spoke softly:
"I didn't mean to."
"I know."
"Should I go back now?"
"Um."
He Yi let go of his hand and walked into the courtyard. After taking only a few steps, Huo Shuwen heard a soft gasp.
"hair."
"Your shoulder armor caught on my hair."
The boy looked down at his shoulder, where a few strands of hair were wrapped around the sharp teeth and horns of the demon Shura.
"Don't move, I'll help you take it down."
"I'll do it myself."
The two said those words at the same time, and at the same time, their hands touched each other.
He Yi and Huo Shuwen are now very close, so close that they can smell each other's scent.
The girl was quite generous, moving her two small hands back and forth on his shoulders.
The eagle is no good; it's like a piece of wood, just sitting there motionless.
"Is it done?" he asked.
"Almost there."
Under the moonlight, Huo Shuwen could clearly see the fine beads of sweat on He Yi's nose.
He took out a handkerchief from his purse and wiped her face.
The girl was somewhat stunned by this action.
"Second Miss".
"Um?"
Did you have fun going out today?
"I'm so happy! Today is the happiest day of my life!"
"So...do you like life outside?"
"What do you mean?" He Yi asked back.
"It's that kind of free and unrestrained life outside, where you can go wherever you want, do whatever you want, and be like a bird soaring freely in the sky."
Hearing this, the girl's eyes filled with starlight, and she replied:
"Of course I like it, but I'll never have that opportunity in my life."
"What did you do before? Were you always a bodyguard?"
Huo Shuwen shook his head. For some reason, the two of them were getting closer and closer, and He Yi even pressed against his shoulder.
"I'm a gangster, I make a living by catching thieves."
"I know, I know, you catch thieves for rewards, right?"
It was rare to see He Yi so carefree and cheerful. Seeing that she really enjoyed the world of martial arts, Huo Shuwen felt a surge of joy.
She liked this kind of life.
The elders wrote in their letters that they wanted to marry her into a wealthy and prestigious family and give her a grand wedding.
But I never asked her if she was willing.
"Yes, after exchanging the money, we'll go to other places to see the mountains and play in the water."
"I really envy you, being able to live this kind of life," He Yi said with a smile.
"I can tell you more about it later."
"OK."
