As soon as the words fell, everyone looked in the direction of the voice.
The man who came was tall and slender, dressed in a dark golden purple robe, and had a mysterious and unattainable sense of nobility.
"I almost hurt the girl. I'm really sorry." His eyes fell directly on Su Qingci, and he uttered these words.
Girl? Hearing this address, Su Qingci couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then began to carefully examine the man in front of her.
I saw that this man had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, with a cold and deep look; his nose was straight and tall, which made his facial features more three-dimensional and deep; his facial contours were clear and firm, as if they were carved by a knife or an axe.
Her jet-black hair was slightly curly, thick and shiny; her long eyelashes were as thick and dense as crow feathers.
He speaks Mandarin with a Nanchang accent and his appearance is different from that of a typical Nanchang person.
Although he apologized, his attitude was somewhat nonchalant and he didn't seem to be truly sorry.
On the contrary, there is a kind of arrogance and domineering attitude that looks down on the world, giving people a feeling of looking down on others from a high position, as if nothing in the world matters to them.
It can even be said that this accident seemed to be intentional on his part.
Su Qingci saw that he had no sincerity, so she naturally didn't want to waste any more words and turned around to leave.
However, at this moment, the man refused to give up and continued, "I just bought this eagle from the stall next to me. It is not yet fully tamed."
"I originally found it quite interesting and thought I could tame it, but unexpectedly I almost hurt you, young lady."
"It is my fault. Please forgive me, young lady."
Upon hearing this, Su Qingci stopped, slowly turned around, and fixed her gaze on him. She said, "Your eagle didn't hurt me, but it nearly hurt the girl next to me, so she's the one you should really apologize to."
The man raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously not expecting her to respond like this.
"The girl is righteous," he said softly.
However, this sentence does not sound like a compliment, but rather more like a mockery.
The man smiled and continued, "Miss, I'm truly sorry. If you're injured, I'll immediately have my men take you to a nearby clinic for treatment."
"how?"
Zi Tan's face was tense, and he replied coldly, "No need."
Her mission was to guard Su Qingci every step of the way. Even if she was seriously injured and bleeding profusely, she would never move an inch.
Facing Zi Tan's refusal, the man smiled again and looked at Su Qingci, "This girl said... not necessary."
Su Qingci: "Although no one was injured, please be careful to discipline your eagle in the future and don't let it hurt anyone again."
Su Qingci had already understood in his heart, if it was really a newly bought eagle, why didn't he put it in a cage and train it after returning home?
Are you really that impatient?
Besides, the eagle was heading for her from the beginning. Seeing that Zitan and Xiaohe were protecting her, it circled around her for a few times. When it found that it could not get close to her, it landed on the bamboo pole next to the parrot.
However, judging from the fact that the eagle did not hurt anyone, it was not a newly purchased eagle at all, but a well-trained eagle!
"Miss, you are absolutely right. Thank you for your advice."
"May I ask if you are free later? If you would be so kind, would I have the honor of inviting you to dinner as an apology?"
This person kept talking to her, but she had already made it clear that the person who was almost hurt by the eagle was Zitan, not herself.
However, his insistence on treating her to a meal to apologize made people suspicious. Could he have other intentions?
"I've just said that it was this girl, not me, who almost hurt the young master's eagle. So it's not necessary for you to treat me to a meal as an apology." Su Qingci replied firmly.
"besides……"
She paused for a moment and continued, "I'm already married, so it's not appropriate for you to call me Miss."
In fact, Su Qingci had become suspicious since he called her "girl" at the beginning.
The people of Nanchang would definitely recognize her bun. The only ones who couldn't recognize it were probably the people of Fengyuan, who were eyeing Nanchang covetously.
And the ending was just as she expected.
Seeing Su Qingci turning around to leave, the owner of the parrot stall hurriedly called out to her, "Madam, please stay."
Hearing the voice, Su Qingci stopped and turned around, his eyes fell on the boss, and he asked softly, "What's the matter?"
The boss rubbed his hands together and nervously pointed at the parrot and said, "Madam, this parrot... do you still want it?"
Su Qingci nodded slightly to express his approval and then instructed Xiao He behind him, "Xiao He, pay."
The boss immediately smiled and responded repeatedly: "Yeah, okay!"
Then he enthusiastically took out some more food that the parrot liked from the stall and handed it to Xiaohe.
After Xiao He paid and left, the boss looked at Yan Xuanye cautiously and asked with courage, "Sir, your eagle..."
However, Yan Xuanye didn't even glance at his boss. His eyes were always fixed on Su Qingci's back as he walked away.
He just raised his right arm slightly, and the eagle that had been standing quietly beside him quickly spread its broad and strong wings and flew high as if it had received an order.
In the blink of an eye, it landed steadily on Yan Xuanye's right arm, its sharp claws tightly grasping his sleeve. Its movements were so agile and neat that it was amazing.
"Your Highness... didn't you say before that you would find a way to attract that girl's attention?"
Shi Zhuo frowned and asked, his tone revealing a hint of confusion and worry, "But why do your subordinates feel that we seem to have made things worse..."
Yan Xuanye, however, appeared remarkably calm and composed. He nonchalantly teased the eagle on his right arm while softly saying, "Don't worry, there will be many opportunities in the future."
Shi Zhuo looked at his master with suspicion, unable to guess what he was thinking.
Yan Xuanye continued, "Didn't she just get married? Logically, she should be deeply in love with her husband right now."
Shi Zhuo nodded in agreement: "That's right, so what?"
Yan Xuanye raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile: "In that case, then send someone to send a few beautiful women to her husband."
"I'd really like to see if she can still be completely devoted to that man after suffering the betrayal of her husband on their wedding day."
Shi Zhuo suddenly understood and couldn't help but applaud: "Oh! So that's how it is! I understand, this is what they people in the Central Plains often call 'attacking the heart'!"
"Your Highness, this is a brilliant plan!"
Shi Zhuo said excitedly, "If a girl is treated coldly by her beloved husband during her marriage, or even finds out that he is entangled with multiple women, she will definitely be heartbroken."
Shi Zhuo clapped his hands and cheered: "Isn't this exactly the psychological effect we want to achieve?"
