Su Liluo focused all her attention on Jiang Shiyuan and didn't notice at all that there was someone standing next to Jiang Shiyuan, and that person was the famous Taifu.
Isn't the noble and elegant Taifu famous for his aloofness and quietness? How could he appear in this noisy and crowded downtown?
Su Liluo thought she had seen it wrong, but except for Master Pei, there was no one else in the capital who could match his intimidating aura.
"Pei Pei is here." Su Liluo stuttered and called out again.
Pei Che heard the voice and glanced at Su Liluo.
Su Liluo suddenly felt like a thorn in her side, and almost subconsciously, she raised her hand and stuffed the two cakes she had snatched back into Jiang Shiyuan's hands.
"I don't want this candy cake."
Su Liluo put down the sugar cake, turned around and ran away in shame.
The only one left was the owner of the sugar cakes, who was crying pitifully, "Miss, Miss, please don't leave! My sugar cakes are all packed."
Jiang Shiyuan looked at Su Liluo's hurriedly leaving back, wondering: Does the sun rise from the west today?
In the past, Su Liluo would have lingered with her for half a day and then ridiculed her arrogantly, but today she just walked away, just because she looked at Pei Che?
Although Master Pei is awe-inspiring, he is not that scary.
Jiang Shiyuan pursed her lips and glanced at Pei Che beside her quietly - he was obviously very handsome.
When Jiang Shiyuan looked over, Pei Che also looked at her, and their eyes met again. Jiang Shiyuan looked like a peeper caught in the act, her face getting a little hot, but Pei Che didn't seem to notice this and asked about Su Liluo.
"Has she always treated you like this?"
Even a small snack has to stand out, what's the point?
Jiang Shiyuan didn't expect Pei Che's attention would turn to him.
My head felt warm, and then a hint of bitterness rose in my stomach.
How come people are so different?
She didn't care about Su Liluo's childish behavior. Every time she felt uncomfortable, Chen Luchu would indiscriminately side with Su Liluo's attitude.
Pei Che could see the right and wrong at a glance, but Chen Luchu had never given her justice for several years.
Jiang Shiyuan raised her eyes and looked at the man beside her again. The warm autumn sun shone on Pei Che, and Pei Che's eyes were all on her.
I'm still waiting for her answer, as if it's something very important.
Jiang Shiyuan curled his lips and said, "Mr. Pei, do you believe it? In fact, Su Liluo is my biggest sponsor. I wish she would come to compete with me every day."
Pei Che didn't understand why, but he saw that Jiang Shiyuan's eyes were burning and his lips were smiling, and he didn't look like someone who was trying to compromise at all.
"Master, does the compensation you just mentioned still count?" Jiang Shiyuan suddenly asked.
Pei Che nodded: "What else do you want?"
"The cakes are delicious. One is not enough. I want more."
After that, Jiang Shiyuan stepped forward unceremoniously, stretched out his hand and took out a silver ingot directly from Pei Che's purse, and turned to give it to the sugar cake owner.
"Boss, the girl just now is my friend. She was joking with me. I will take care of the cake today. Here is the money. As for the cake, please help me deliver it to a nearby charity. Just say..."
Jiang Shiyuan paused, turned to look at Pei Che, his eyes bright as stars: "Just say that the current Taifu Pei is getting married, and invites the children in the charity hall to eat candy cakes."
Pei Che, who was standing aside, had already curled up the corners of his lips without knowing when. He casually raised his hand and threw the heavy purse to the sugar cake owner.
"You won't be setting up a stall. For the next month, you will only make sugar cakes for the charity, and then -"
"Madam Taifu, your wedding is imminent, please congratulate us all."
Jiang Shiyuan was holding two sugar cakes in his hands. His heart had already lost its rhythm when he heard the name "Madam Taifu". His cheeks were as hot as fire in the sun.
Master, it seems that he is not as annoyed with her as before.
…
Su Liluo did not walk far. After blending into the crowd, she looked back fearfully.
Seeing Jiang Shiyuan and Pei Che disappear from his sight, he stopped and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Scare me to death!"
Su Liluo patted her chest, the two bulging lumps rising and falling due to the intense breathing.
Zhichun quickly took a handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat off Su Liluo's head, and asked in confusion: "Why are you sweating so much, Miss?"
Su Liluo stroked her chest and said, "If you were put in solitary confinement by Pei Che when you were a child, you would be afraid too."
Zhichun has only served Su Liluo in recent years and doesn't know what happened before. She asked curiously, "Did Master Pei put the young lady in solitary confinement? Master Pei is of high rank, but the young lady is the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion. Even the master doesn't dare to punish her. How could Master Pei put the young lady in solitary confinement?"
Su Liluo's memory suddenly floated back to ten years ago. Ten years ago, she and Jiang Shiyuan were against each other and snatched a friend from Jiang Shiyuan. As a result, Pei Che, who was temporarily invited to teach at that time, knew about it.
Su Liluo didn't know how Pei Che knew it, she only remembered that day, Pei Che, who had never met her before, suddenly visited the Shangshu Mansion.
Dad was overjoyed and treated Pei Che as a distinguished guest, even taking out the red robe he had treasured for many years.
Who would have thought that Pei Che would come to complain?
Pei Che told her father everything she had done without hiding anything. Her father only wanted to scold her and attribute the matter to the play between children.
But Pei Che didn't appreciate it at all. He was only in his teens, but he acted like an old scholar and suppressed her father completely.
"Yuan'er is the first student I personally teach. I don't want her to feel that her teacher does not practice what he preaches, only talks nonsense every day, and cannot even do the most basic justice and fairness."
Pei Che spoke frankly, and her father did not dare to offend her, so he directly put her in solitary confinement for half a month.
Five days were because of Jiang Shiyuan, and ten days were because she wasted her father's red robe.
This was the heaviest punishment Su Liluo had ever received in her life.
Therefore, Su Liluo will never forget Pei Che's gloomy face in her life, which can be regarded as a childhood shadow.
After that, she restrained herself a lot, but her father felt that what he did was not enough, and forcibly sent her to her maternal home thousands of miles away.
It was not until three years ago that she was brought back.
From then on, she hated Jiang Shiyuan even more.
She hated Jiang Shiyuan, but if she liked something, she would take it back even if she had to pay a high price.
Jiang Shiyuan liked the incense from Chenxiang Shop, so she bribed the shopkeeper. Every time Jiang Shiyuan came to patronize the shop, she would rush over to intercept her and make her go back empty-handed every time!
Jiang Shiyuan has to get the man she likes even if she doesn't like him.
Thinking of this, Su Liluo recalled what happened today: "Haven't you found out Pei Ziye's specific whereabouts yet?"
She came here today just for Pei Ziye. She heard that Pei Ziye would come to the temple fair, so she came here for a walk.
Zhichun asked with some doubt: "Miss, don't you find it strange? In such a public place, shouldn't it be Pei Ziye who is accompanying Jiang Shiyuan? Why is it Master Pei?"
Master Pei is high up, and he doesn't look like someone who has the leisure to accompany the girl around.
Zhichun suddenly had an idea and said in surprise: "Miss, Jiang Shiyuan should not marry Master Sun of the Pei family, but Master Pei!"
Su Liluo was stunned when she heard this.
But soon, Su Liluo waved her hand: "How is this possible?! There are so many noble ladies in the capital, how could Master Pei be interested in Jiang Shiyuan?"
Zhichun whispered, "But just now I saw Miss Jiang and Master Pei standing together. They looked so good together."
As Zhichun spoke, there was still a gleam of surprise in his eyes, and there was even a strange aunt's smile on the corner of his mouth.
Su Liluo recalled the scene just now - one was as bright and beautiful as the moon, the other was as beautiful as a peach, standing together, and...
What a perfect match!
Su Liluo's face immediately fell again, because she had looked through all the noble ladies in the capital, and in terms of looks, no one was prettier than that slutty Jiang Shiyuan.
Jiang Shiyuan's face was the only thing that made Su Liluo admit defeat.
Jiang Shiyuan's face was indeed a good match for Master Pei, but Su Liluo still felt that the two of them were impossible.
Master Pei wanted to marry Jiang Shiyuan ten years ago. Why would he wait until now?
She also felt that Jiang Shiyuan couldn't take down Pei Ziye, so he went to please Pei Ziye's elders.
When she liked Shen Luchu before, didn't she try to please Lord Shen first?
Jiang Shiyuan is about to use the same old trick again!
Su Liluo was very sure.
Su Liluo was thinking, when suddenly two familiar figures came towards her.
"Miss Su, what a coincidence, you are here at the temple fair too?" Zhou Jingshen greeted Su Liluo warmly when he saw her.
Su Liluo looked at Zhou Jingshen who was walking towards her, and Chen Luchu who was beside Zhou Jingshen.
Shen Luchu looked unhappy and sullen, and didn't even say hello.
Su Liluo, who had been very enthusiastic before, suddenly changed her usual behavior and showed no intention of paying attention. The scene became inexplicably awkward.
Only Zhou Jingshen continued to be polite and asked, "What has Miss Su been busy with recently? I didn't see Miss Su at the poetry gathering yesterday."
"I have some family matters recently and I am not free."
Su Liluo said casually.
Jiang Shiyuan didn't even want Shen Luchu, so why did she go to Shen Luchu's poetry gathering? She hates whining without reason the most.
Even the most dull-witted person could sense Su Liluo's perfunctory attitude.
Zhou Jingshen couldn't help but wonder, what was going on? How come the two people who used to love to be around Chen Luchu the most have changed their genders one by one?
Even though Su Liluo ignored him, Jiang Shiyuan disappeared for several days in a row.
Because of this, I specially dragged Chen Luchu out for a walk today to divert his attention.
Su Liluo didn't care whether Zhou Jingshen was puzzled or not, her current target was Pei Ziye.
"You two, if everything is ok, I'll leave first."
Before she could say a few words, Su Liluo wanted to withdraw.
She turned around and was about to leave. Suddenly, Shen Luchu, who had been silent, asked, "Su Liluo, have you seen Jiang Shiyuan?"
