His eyes fell on her cheek.
Ma Mengjia's skin is much better than Ma Mengxiang's. The style of the skirt she is wearing is indeed very eye-catching among the group of people, but it is already a relatively old style. The bottom of the skirt is a little yellow, and there are no wrinkles elsewhere. It can be seen that she has indeed taken good care of it.
She curled her lips and leaned back.
A few strands of her long hair draped over her chest. When she lowered her eyes, her beauty lost some of its impact. Her eyebrows and eyes became more elegant, with a calm tenderness. "Because I took the initiative to find him."
"Ah?" Ma Mengjia couldn't believe it. "You took the initiative?"
"I sought him as a backer to save my life. I didn't expect that this backer would be quite useful. I am still alive today." She seemed to be lost in memory.
Ma Mengjia was stunned: "It's... that simple?"
"Yes."
"Then you are much better than me." Ma Mengjia said: "I don't even dare to look at him..."
Brother Duan is handsome, but when we met again, I don’t know why his eyes were a little... different in some indescribable way.
Or maybe it was just her illusion.
Would he be able to see her after she and Brother Duan got to know each other for a while? Would the way he looked at her change as well?
Pei Xiqing didn't say anything.
Ma Mengjia explained: "I didn't have any other ideas, I just wanted to make friends with Brother Duan."
"What kind of friend?"
"Just, ordinary friends."
Although there may be a long distance between her and Brother Duan, but...how can you know if you don't try?
"Making friends is fine, but anything else, no."
"I……"
Pei Xiqing turned his head and accurately caught the look in her eyes: "Miss Ma, did you misunderstand something?"
"Ah? I..."
"I'm telling you this because I treat you as a friend. If you don't respect me, then there's no need for me to continue talking to you."
Having said that, Pei Xiqing stood up.
Ma Mengjia suddenly panicked.
Visible tension.
Ma Mengxiang also stood up and took her hand: "Miss Pei, don't be angry. My cousin has always been like this. I'm used to it. Don't make a fuss about it. When outsiders came to the village before, she also wanted to make friends with them..."
Not sure what she was thinking about, her voice was a little unsure: "Just, just making friends."
Except for the one time when I almost eloped with that psychic, everything else was just fine.
Pei Xiqing pulled her hand away: "How boring, talking to you guys always involves men."
Ma Mengxiang immediately said, "No! I don't talk about men! I'll take you to the back mountain! There are so many beautiful flowers and trees over there! I'll show you my special skills!"
Pei Xiqing: "Thank you for your kindness, Mengxiang, let's wait until next time when we have time. I'm not in the mood today."
Seeing that she was about to leave, Ma Mengjia was indeed anxious.
He realized that his actions just now were too blatant.
After all, they are husband and wife, and she could be beaten for what she said.
"Miss Pei...I'm sorry. My words made you uncomfortable and offended you. I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to..."
She raised her hand and slapped her face to prove herself: "I was completely bewildered. I, I, I, I didn't expect you...wanted to treat me as a friend. I thought you wouldn't like me."
In the past few days, the villagers in her hometown have long been accustomed to being watched. Now that the person has changed, both Brother Duan and herself feel a little...uncomfortable. She didn't expect to say such words at that time.
It's just so... embarrassing.
She didn't know what happened, and she just said such words without restraint.
Not getting a response from Pei Xiqing, Ma Mengjia's panicked tears began to fall.
She was so annoyed that she wanted to slap herself again, but someone grabbed her wrist the next second.
Pei Xiqing looked down at her, his eyes curved: "I don't dislike you."
